I'm going to take a different path from the other responses so far. The claim that IQ predicts job success seems to be contentious among a lot of people, but as far as I can tell, it is fairly well supported and other ways of evaluating candidates are at least as noisy anyway, short of professions with the sort of concrete standards that allow for meaningful licensing or something like being a military officer where they're going to train you and evaluate your performance in context for 4 years before ever giving you a real job anyway.

However, thanks to the way mental traits get distributed, a fairly small proportion of the population is ever going to have a high IQ. Roughly 16% of the population at any one time will have greater than 1 SD north of median. Less than 3% will be greater than 2 SD.

More people than that need to have jobs. If you're going to insist only 97th percentile people can work for you, you need to be offering 97th percentile salary. Currently, that is around $220,000 a year in the US. "Most" jobs can definitely not offer that.
Actually it sounds like you did.
Ask HN: What companies give engineers weekly paid investment time?
For the first time in my career I'm working for a company that gives engineers (and non-engineers) 20% investment time weekly to work on projects of their choosing - open source, presenting, learning new tech, etc. It's great.

But it's also good for them, since everybody keeps getting better at what they do, and it promotes the company as well. So in the long run, it makes them more money.

Other than Google (who is known for this), what other companies do you know of that give their people "growth time" / "investment time" every week? I've only found a few so far, but there must be more.
The purpose of education should not be the attainment of credentials, but rather the attainment of the ability to "do a leetcode interview". Institutions being given license to grant credentials is a more or less completely separable problem from this.

No university has any incentive to say no to someone who wants to pay 200k to have you grade some homework for a couple of years, as long as they aren't at capacity, and moreover very small incentives to fail them.

The irrelevance of the paper as a signal is the solution to this problem.
I've always struggled know really understand what the point was of an exit interview. Other than going over final formalities such as turning over badges, equipment, finalizing any paperwork and policies, and being informed of your final compensation.

Other than that I don't understand why a company would wait for so long to try and determine what it takes to keep an employee or an employee's reason for leaving. As an employee I wouldn't have any reason to provide them any feedback on those subjects at all. If they hadn't listen to me for the previous year or more that I was there why does it have to come to this extreme to get their attention. If they do want my valuable insight on what it takes to keep and retain employees and cultural problems at the company and so forth they can hire me as a consultant and pay me for my time.

Exit interviews are the strategy of piss poor management. The type of manager's who value exit interview feedback aren't managers at all they are bosses. A true manager is in touch with their people empowering their people to bring profit and profitability to the company. A boss is someone who is detached from their people and just expect them to turn out work.

A manager would never have need of an exit interview and when it came time to part ways they would know exactly why and they would wish the person well and hope that they can have a relationship in the future.

A boss needs the exit interview because they're shocked that you would ever want to leave this horribly lopsided relationship. And it usually turns into the how dare you have the courage to think that you're better than this company.
Yeah, I had no idea that was the case. No interest in building missiles or weapons anyway.
Go isn't just doing SRA, as far as I understood it from your article, though it is certainly doing that too. Go will happily allocate objects on the stack with their full in-memory representation, which does not include any kind of class pointer.

Here is a contrived example that creates a 424 byte struct: https://godbolt.org/z/5cKh7xTzq

As can be seen in the disassembly, the object created in "Process" does not leave the stack until it is copied to the heap in "ProcessOuter" because ProcessOuter is sending the value to a global variable. The on-stack representation is the full representation of that object, as you can also see by the disassembly in ProcessOuter simply copying that directly to the heap. (The way the escape analysis plays into it, the copying to the heap happens on the first line of ProcessOuter, which can be confusing, but it is only being done there because the value is known to escape to the heap later in the function on the second line. It would happily remain on the stack indefinitely if not for that.)

It's cool that Graal does SRA, but Go will actually let you do a lot of work entirely on the stack (SRA'd into registers when possible), even crossing function boundaries. In your SRA blog post example, when the Vector is returned from the function, it has to be heap allocated into a "real" object at that point. Go doesn't have to do that heap allocation, and won’t have to collect that garbage later.

Most of the time, objects are much smaller than this contrived example, so they will often SRA into registers and avoid the stack entirely… and this applies across function boundaries too, from what I’ve seen, but I haven’t put as much effort into verifying this.

>>Not something cryptocurrencies have claimed they can solve.

I agree to an extent, but the problem is crypto has this massive culture of “we don’t need to solve it because no gods, no masters.” For them it’s a feature to protect, and they are far from a small minority in the crypto space.
Like for example i have switches that get confused and started reporting things are connected to ports 57-62 (on a 24 port switch) and switching them wrong, etc.

UI they have been slowly screwing up more and more for years (How many years are they into the "new UI" migration for the controller?).

But the actual switching is pretty basic stuff (and a separate hardware chip they are driving that is not hard to drive), and simply shouldn't be going wrong in this way.

I've also got a UDM-SE and UDM-Pro that seem to have hardware issues on the SFP+ uplink when connected in certain ways (and won't break 500mbps upstream) no matter what SFP+ module is connected (fiber, dac, etc) if the LAN SFP+ port is connected at 10gbps. All the same modules work in every other router (mikrotik, etc) connected the exact same way.
(yes, before HN tries to debug this, IDS/etc is all turned off. There are no nft rules, no nothing, i have debugged this to death through the actual shell). Others have had the same issue.

They also have an $1800 ptz camera that can't follow objects even when it detects them (This is 100% basic functionality of a PTZ camera, especially at this pricepoint), despite promising it for years.

I have lots of these kinds of "why is basic functionality broken or missing" stories. Ubiquiti gets it out the door, says they'll fix it all in post, and moves on to the next thing.

They aren't a hardware manufacturer, they are a bad AAA game developer :)

This is a good time to mention some things that should be more common knowledge:

-Recreational use of prescription meds makes it vastly more difficult for people who actually need them. Especially when their condition causes an inability to schedule and coordinate.

-Psychiatrically, recent studies are showing that neurotypical brains don't actually benefit much from stimulant medications (but the illusion of productivity can be a good placebo)

>Adding the extra step of taking a picture loses a lot of the productivity gain.

Does it really? I feel like I spend many minutes filling out the page, and a few seconds taking a picture of it.

And I still have the paper.. I do not need to take a picture of it right away. I scan my notes with my phone in one batch setting.

Remarkable seems very expensive to save me from a 5 minute scanning session after a few hours of writing notes. On top of that it's another thing i have to carry and charge and possibly troubleshoot.

honestly, it is kind of silly to me that remarkable tries to sell itself as a place to take notes. It's main selling point to me is that it is a kindle I can take notes on. but I dont read enough to warrant purchasing an ereader

"But are you arguing in favour of blockchain?"

No, please see my original comment, where I made this clear: "I don't mean to advocate for cryptocurrency in any way."

By "modern distributed database", I don't mean blockchain. I just mean "modern distributed database", e.g. things like FoundationDB, Spanner, Aurora or CockroachDB.

"A simple 2-phase commit would do it. Or hell, just a write-ahead log on the application layer."

Of course, and that leads into my second question, also in my original comment:

How are storage faults in the middle of the committed WAL handled? Or is the rest of the committed WAL simply discarded, conflated with a torn write from a system crash?

These questions are important when it comes to storing balances safely. Banks can use all kinds of techniques for defense-in-depth (not to suggest they do), they're not limited to Postgres. But a distributed database is a good thing these days, no?

True for Packet switching, it was concieved ( Baran early 60s, Davies 1965) to "withstand heavy enemy attacks".

It's an AirPods problem in that it's a problem that the default mode where it uses automatic device switching is unreliable for some users. Unless you're positing that that unreliability is actually a side-effect of the bluetooth standard, which I don't really know enough about to comment on.

Point 1 is correct insofar as he published an update to it in December.[1] He did not (and does not) make it clear that the employee who was arrested was his source.[2] In fact his anonymous source "Adam" is never referenced anywhere in his second article, outside of comments asking him about it.

If you read his reporting on this now, it is still not clear that "Adam", his source, and the person committing the alleged offences are the same person. It may be he doesn't know but he certainly makes zero effort in either article to address the question.

Ubiquiti's forced cloud BS is more than enough reason for people to move away from them -- they basically dropped out of consideration for my purposes after they did that.

It can also be true that there was a drop in stock price when this incident was reported, and further drops after Krebs' coverage.[3] In fact he even discusses their share price at the tail end of his original article, even updating it on March 31 and acknowledging a roughly $50 drop following his reporting.

I doubt Ubiquiti will win this court case but I do think Krebs damaged his own credibility here.

Trust them to keep your money – yes, you can absolutely rely on that.

Trust them to have “your” money back – that’s a taller order. But it it will be safe, sure.

At least with cryptocurrency you don’t have to keep it at an exchange, while the governments are pushing for abolishing cash and keeping all the money in banks.

Looks like the population went from ~15.4M in 1934 to ~100.5M in 2020. I'd bet that neither the area devoted to agriculture, nor the productivity (per unit area) increased by anything resembling that ~553% increase.

STEM degree fields are so obviously career-based. There's a reason Merck internships go to biology students, Lockheed internships go to aerospace students, Google to CS, etc. But when people call out universities on how poor of a job they do, they suddenly claim career-based education isn't the goal. It's a widespread CYA move by vastly overpriced universities.

This is about Prometheus but Mimir makes it interesting. I can't find any other open source time series database except Mimir/Cortex which allows this much scale (clustering options in their open source version). Our use case will have high cardinality and Mimir seems to fit very well.

Can we use Prometheus/Mimir as general purpose time series database? Prometheus is built for monitoring purposes and may not be for general purpose time series databases like InfluxDB (I am hoping to be wrong). What are the disadvantages/limitations for using Prometheus/Mimir as general purpose time series database?
That's interesting. Have you tested this with another DB? The design makes a lot of sense, but I feel like it's the kind of thing that's hard to get right unless you actually test it. At the company I currently work, they switched DB some time ago. They already used interfaces but even that was not enough to make the switch, due to some differences in how the DBs worked.
Can you explain more? I don't have any experience to infer what your comment means.
Right, I never said you can trust exchanges. You do not have to use an exchange. That's the whole point of the decentralised nature of cryptocurrencies.
