I recommend showing them how to solve various types of problems that developers typically encounter, setting up a project in an IDE, cloning a repo and building it, finding API docs for the specific version being used, etc... That way they know how to get past roadblocks when they encounter them.

I'm currently taking a class, which is not programming related, and it's maddening because the teacher and course material do a very poor job of covering the basics, so from my perspective as an outsider it is near impossible to figure out how everything relates. It's possible that your current students need a general overview of how all the pieces interrelate before they can internalize and build their own knowledge.
Hang on, how is the left arrow emoji showing up? I thought HN strips out all emojis...
that’s the point. more complex circuits are made from simple circuits. principle still applies. if you think about it, most problems with writing code stem from state management.
It's expensive to do business in those sorts of places.

Would you get behind a movement to remove the term 'beat' from our lexicon?

Funny I would also not count Facebook and found it really weird when they announced the DC for meta.

With Google and ml I connect so much positive and life-changing like: health care, weather, language model, deepmind ... There research blog and papers are great.

And then Facebook.

Yeah what is Facebook doing with ml? Optimizing for the next bullshit to make our society worse?
I have some issues with the "fire fast" philosophy, but this is not really one of them. Companies don't generally even divulge that they fired someone when giving a reference. They will say the employee is "not eligible for rehire," which is frequently code for "we fired this person for cause," and is generally interpreted that way. I do wish they would just come out and say that the person was terminated for cause, so others wouldn't have to guess, but that's not even really related to the "fire fast" issue.
> the people who retire and spend time with family and friends

That's the ideal way to go, imo. I'm trying to slowly figure out what I need to live that kind of life, so that I can become some sort of cyberpunk mountain man when I reach financial independence. Identify what makes me happy, what I need for those happiness-generating activities, etc, and make sure that I'm set up to enjoy myself.
If this were true, "heretical" movements (Christians in the Roman Empire, Protestants in the 16th century, Liberals in the 19th century, Nationalists in multi-national empires of the early 20th century) would have never prevailed, because they were "deplatformed" by the powers-that-be with vigor. In fact, they were often even decapitated, not just deplatformed. But they were often successful in the end anyway.

Brute force (and deplatforming is brute force) isn't an automatic recipe for victory in a war of ideas.
Please let me know if you do write something. I would love to read it!
The entire concept of "setting an example" seems like a bit of fascism that has snuck its way into liberal democracy.

It is different. Fundamentally different. One is retributive (A did it to B so B is “justified” in doing it to A, too) and the other is restorative (A took from B so “justice” is served by A returning it to B). Everyone is worse off in the first scenario (an eye for an eye and all...) while everyone is back to where they started in the second scenario.

A better example might be punishing a murderer with the death penalty. But most people who oppose retributive “justice”, myself included, do indeed have a problem with that system so it’s still not a particularly persuasive point.

If a person believes $action is wrong but are able to rationalize why it’s only wrong when others do it but it’s justified and permissible when they do it then it seems to me that the hullabaloo over $action is just a pretext and real issue they’re mad about is who is doing it rather than the $action itself.
It might, but they would have to be big enough to break the "conservative" alignment of resource extractors, religious fanatics and rich people.

It's definitely possible in 10-20 years.

> high pressure fuel lines degraded and cracked

A vulnerability shared with all K-Jetronic engines. At some point I got clued in and kept a fire extinguisher on board my own 914, just in case. And it saw use, not on my own car, but doing damage control on a stranger's VW Beetle, in flames on the freeway shoulder.
Assuming we define functional as referential transparent and imperative in turn as referential opaque.

Then, I think there are two different aspects of the problem:

- There is the identity of each object in your program (e.g. a key, reference or pointer), regardless of its value.

- And there are the versions of values each object has / had.

Imperative tracks identities but no versions while functional tracks versions but no identities. Ideally the program would run in a VCS so that one could track both versions and identities.
Cartel is a pretty strong word for what happened and the fact that wages remained high is likely not an anomaly. E.g. Hedge funds which make similarly large amounts of money have paid their employees just as well for many years.
Ouch, I read STM every time I looked at it.

None of what I said applies to ST.
It wasn't a threat or a call to violence. It was just a sentiment, and one seemingly made in knowing jest (though I don't really get the context).
Likely not enough lubrication happening. Pity, that engine would have been perfectly good if it had been treated a bit more carefully, and a matching numbers 914 would be worth something today. They're a very interesting car, mid engined lightweight sports car that handles a lot better than you would expect from something that old.

There was a six cylinder version of this as well (super rare) and they made a prototype 914/8 which was never offered for sale, afaik only two were made (one for Ferdinand Porsche, one for Ferdinand Piëch).
They bought insta for 1B
even with a delayed carry, you still need to pump the data through the CPU. For a basic place where this becomes a problem, consider taking exp of each element in a vector. A vectorized version of this code will spend most of it's time computing a polynomial which is just 8 fmas (in 2 chains of 4). With a dedicated fma instruction, the cpu can do each of those fmas in 4 cycles, and overlap the chains, leading to a total time of 17 cycles (assuming 4 cycle fma which is fairly standard). Doing the same computation with quires would require moving around 16x as much data, which is impossible to do as quickly.
And, indeed, all the modulations. Exposure to unvarying microwaves at various frequencies and low exposure has fairly often shown no obvious effect, but modulations completely change the picture as regards induced electric currents.

ZAIS Group LLC | Junior Full Stack Engineer | Remote (U.S.) or Holmdel, NJ | Full-Time | https://www.zaisgroup.com/

ZAIS is an asset management firm based in Holmdel, NJ with over two decades of experience investing in structured credit markets. The mission of the ZAIS Technology Team is to support asset management efforts by ingesting and managing financial data; developing tools to analyze, view, and understand that data; and automating manual processes around the firm.

About the Position

ZAIS is hiring a junior engineer to work on several of our internal web applications. These applications enable our analysts to better understand our current assets and evaluate new assets which we could add to our portfolio. You will contribute to our “Loanz” platform, which will allow analysts to view the complex data underlying our collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) as well as see CLO test results, evaluate hypothetical CLOs, and perform portfolio optimization. You’ll also help us develop a system to model CLO performance using Monte Carlo simulations.

You will be working in a small, cross-functional team with remote members distributed across the US and Canada (with a concentration around our headquarters in Holmdel, NJ). We are a small company, which means that you will be wearing a lot of hats – we are all generalists doing whatever it takes to provide value to the business. Our team also values feedback and knowledge transfer; we work to provide these through code review, pair programming, and informal technical presentations. Here are some of the technologies you will be working with: TypeScript, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Flask, Apache Airflow, Docker, Microsoft Azure.

Our Ideal Candidate

Generally speaking, we're after individuals who are driven by an insatiable desire to learn and grow. ZAIS specializes in the management of complex financial instruments, and we need engineers who are interested in the details and always want to learn more. If you only want to work in a simple business domain, then this is not the right place for you. But if you want to challenge yourself to learn about tech and finance while surrounded by a talented, multidisciplinary team, then you will fit right in.

As we are looking for a junior engineer, we expect that you have 1-3 years of professional software development experience through full-time work or internships. Ideally, you'll have worked on web applications before, but if you're comfortable writing software in a language like Python or TypeScript, and have a curious mind, you'll pick things up no problem. We would prefer you also have a 4-year degree in a technical area such as Computer Science, Mathematics, or Physics.

How to Apply

Send your resume along with a short cover letter to tech.careers@zaisgroup.com. Tell us why you'd like to work here and what the company would be like if you were in it. If you've worked on any similar projects before, then we would love to hear about them. Also, if you get the job, what would you be most interested in working on first? Don't feel the need to draft an essay. A handful of paragraphs combined with your resume is just fine.
It is trivial to manually upgrade dependencies in NPM. You just use `npm update <package>` with an optional version number if you want. And upgrading all dependencies of a Go package is also a single command. So honestly it seems like there is very little difference. My main point here is the trade-off. Either you reduce the friction for upgrades, and run the risk of malicious upgrades like node-ipc. Or you increase the friction, and run the risk of security vulnerabilities being unpatched in many projects.

I personally prefer the former. Encourage upgrades, but then NPM should also have a separate repository for community verified / trusted packages to reduce the chance of a random single developer damaging the entire ecosystem (left-pad, node-ipc, etc)
I.e., at random: thus not inducing any coherent electric current, so irrelevant to the discussion.

Not a unicorn, but the Basecamp folks have spoken before on how they focus on building a product their way and with entirely their own vision first, without getting customer feedback, and then see if it flies or not.
Any resources on this? I’m interested. I’ve tried stretching, cycling, hot baths & a stand-up desk. I messed mine up diving off a boat 8 years ago.
I have come to read any statement like "we are biologically wired to X" as a declaration of nihilism and misanthropy. Wired is what a light bulb is to a switch. Individual humans are complex, beautiful and capable of overcoming pretty much anything, including biological tendencies.
I’ve always figured it was some combination of selection and survivorship bias.

Selection because only workaholics or super-strivers generally make it to that level.

Survivorship because the only ones you see working are by definition the ones that didn’t quit. It is possible that many people who made that kind of money have quit and are just being quiet about it.
If I set up a new Node project I get the highest 'supported' version of whatever. If I add a new dependency I get the latest version of any transitive dependency I didn't already have. As far as I know that's impossible to disable. That's the automated upgrade I mean.
It's not about the open world dimension, it's dropping the player into a world with little to no training.

Skyrim, GTA, and RDR2 all share the same "Main Mission" mechanic that helps keep players centered on overall story progression while leaving room for side quests and exploration. This "go there, do this, go there" cycle doesn't exist in BOTW or Elden Ring.
Yeah, I pretty much think that posit only makes sense for 32 bit and smaller, and that you want your 64 bit numbers to be closer to float64 (although with the posit semantics for Inf/NaN/-0).
SEEKING FREELANCER - Greenfield project | Rails | Full Remote | Anywhere in world | Contract 40h / week

I'm leading the development of an MVP. We have a tight set of product requirements and are seeking two fulltime full stack Rails devs to help us build it. Estimating the contract length will be 6 months to build the MVP, give or take. We'll also be building hybrid iOS and Android apps. Once done, there'll likely be a need to stay on further to transition the product to an internal team.

Tech stack is Rails 7 w/ Stimulus + Hotwire, TailwindUI, and Postgres deployed (probably) on Render. No code has been written yet but I'm considering using Jumpstart Rails.

Looking for product-focused devs who think about the end user scenarios, self manage, communicate well and often, and are fluent in written and spoken english. We'll use GitHub, Shortcut (or maybe Linear), and Email to run the project, and Zoom if we need to go sync.

It's a pretty dev-friendly gig:

- no legacy code to deal with

- we'll use modern tools + tech

- some interesting tech with the hybrid apps

- no daily standups

- async communication

- I'm a dev and your main point of contact (and I've been building w/ Rails since 2007)

Please email hn@reemer.com with subject "Loadspace Rails dev". Please share:

- the Rails projects you've built and what you did on them

- your hourly rate

- anything else you feel would be relevant

NO AGENCIES - SOLO DEVS ONLY PLEASE.

Thanks!

And having a second, drivable car. ;)

But I think hobbyist vintage wrenching shares a lot with software feature design: you could do anything, but the real objective is to maximize fun-per-time-spent. Otherwise, you're working another full time job as a professional mechanic for your cars.

And besides, there's something elegant about getting a rat rod to work. :-)
There is absolutely no proof that cellphone levels of power induce ion motion as you have described, I can find some theoretical work at much higher power levels that proposes it as a mechanism but is not definitive.

What drives me nuts about people's criticism of Thomas is that they don't understand what actually makes him different from other Black people. It's not his religiosity or his conservatism. His "don't complain," "don't protest," "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" conservatism is completely normal for people "who look like him." Even his views on racial issues are widely held by other Black people. For example, the majority believe that race shouldn't be even a "minor factor" in college admissions. And only half of Black people think the government "should help improve the social and economic conditions of black people." https://press.princeton.edu/ideas/the-roots-of-black-politic... (Figure 0.5).

What makes Thomas atypical is his partisan choices. Most Black conservatives believe that it's better to caucus with the white social liberals in the Democratic Party (who are often quite hostile to their values) than with the white conservatives in the Republican Party (who are often willing to tolerate anti-Black racism). These is a deeply personal choice between two parties--neither of which well represents the spectrum of interests of Black people--borne of Thomas's singular lived experience.
