Good story. I guess you had done with your work there. Sometimes
teams/places have a way of naturally helping us move to the next
stage.

Competences work at multiple levels, visible and invisible. Being good
at your job. Showing you're good at your job. Believing in your
job. Getting other people to believe in your job. Getting other
people to believe that you believe in your job... and so on ad
absurdum. Once one part of that slips the whole game can unravel
fast.
Clipboard Health | All roles | Global and REMOTE forever | Full-time

We're solving the healthcare short-staffing crisis (we help match nurses with short-staffed healthcare facilities), and we're growing so fast that we're hiring for roles we haven't even thought of yet. We doubled our 50-person engineering team in Q1 and our goals for Q2 are even more ambitious.

https://boards.greenhouse.io/clipboardhealth

Priorities:

* Engineering Managers (vanilla, QA and Devops/SRE) - stack: Node.js, React, Typescript
- https://grnh.se/bf4c326d4us

* Principal Engineers

* Data Scientists

* Data Engineers

* Machine Learning Engineers

* And then all other teams, all roles: customer support, sales, finance, strategy and ops.

And here's our culture page! https://bit.ly/3kw1z8L

This company is the next Airbnb -- hop on!
Yeah I think I agree with you. The other place I've run into difficulty is explaining results. When you have complex searches and they're excluding or including certain results, you often want to know which part of the search is responsible. Because often searches are long-lived (outside of Google) and people need to tune them over time, but it can be really hard to figure out what to change.

IIRC for ES, at least, "explain" exists, but it's very hard to interpret.
Does "What I want to say is stop writing your documents because it doesn’t make a difference" sound like stop working on DEI to you? With the context that the documents are their work products about DEI...
Except the little detail about sloppy use after free.

I've gotten my last two jobs at Webflow (YC S13) and Lumi (YC W15) because of a Who's Hiring thread, so if you have any questions about why I decided to join Plus, you can send me an email, at zach (at) plusdocs (dot) com.
I've found it hard to resist the conclusion that "Hugo sux".
I've had good success using a system with two levels of severity:

- // STOPSHIP: the presence of this string anywhere in the codebase causes a production build to fail.

- // TODO: for everything else.
That isn't really flat, but mostly downsloped for the first half, even if only slightly. I know it sounds unreasonable, because people then didn't believe me either.

Except when they've seen me doing it.

Edit: I also caught fire for being unimpressed with Tour de France and the likes, at the times.

Edit: Also klicking that link it seems to be a different route now, which would be a detour almost to the Airport of Cologne. (Sigh). The route I took was more direct, about 55km.
>But people want them, and that's unlikely to change.

This will change when we'll have to make compromise because our current agriculture model is not sustainable (both for climate and food production).

As an aside: I stopped drinking coffee because of the environmental impact. I now drink chicory and barley coffee that's locally grown and roasted. The taste is close enough. It also makes it easier to absorb iron and vitamins (which caffeine inhibits, which does not help if you're reducing meat consumption).

Developer with 6 years of experience currently in Toulouse, France. I'm mainly looking for a Django job and I have a lot of experience in front end from the last few years. I started my first job with Django but then I had to move to the front end part. My Django skills is not the best because I haven't use it professionally the last few years but I'll be able to be proficient in a weeks or two. I can bring good front end skill to the company too.
You mention debugging the live Deep Space probe using a LISP REPL, and I remember reading somewhere else how people troubleshooted an earlier Voyager (?) probe via a FORTH REPL. Were those schools of thought in contact at all?

What do you think about the efforts of some Haskell folks to make embedded languages that would generate code for a more limited system but at the same time leverage the beefy Haskell stage as both an extensible static analyzer and an overgrown macro processor? There were a number of those (I think shaders for earlier-generation GPUs, real-time control code, and even hardware synthesis were all among the attempted targets) and I don’t know that they got any adoption at all, but this sounds similar to what you’ve described doing on less capable machines with LISP.
Obligatory Alain Connes post:

http://noncommutativegeometry.blogspot.com/2007/03/time.html
It's not an all or nothing thing. But rather a "meaningful vs unmeaningful" sort of thing. The smallest meaningful thing we could do to impact waste production is a tax in one city or nation.

Meaningless things are things like banning plastic straws, awareness things, or even to a large extent funding day long excursions to the beach to pick up trash. Those are things more similar to urinating into a hurricane.

It's not a fundamentalist thing. Rather, it's an Amdahl's law thing. The politically and socially popular actions have almost no real effect on climate change or waste production. The problem is we are mad at the wrong people. We blame individuals for waste when the amount of waste an individual produces is a TINY fraction of the waste generated by corporations. Further, a lot of that waste for a citizen is unavoidable. I can't help the fact that every item of food I eat has been wrapped in plastic, bundled in plastic, and then is shipped from halfway across the global only for the grocery store or restaurant to unceremoniously throw away that plastic garbage.

Frankly, we won't reduce our climate impact through good feeling programs and broken corporate promises. We NEED laws that impose monetary losses on businesses for waste production to change anything.

>> my custom "CSS as S-expressions" parser [0]

That’s a pretty neat idea, if all CSS on a site originated from your s-exp’s then you’d make it trivial to find not just what, but why a particular style has been applied (because now you’re only looking in an acyclic-graph, it’s easier to search).
How I created a million dollar SaaS business and what I learned doing so
And Google Legal profits the most from turning these cases into “personal Rorschach tests.”

In the case of Glasson’s pregnancy discrimination case, she had to wait two years and go through Google-requested health screenings just to reach a settlement. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/apr/09/she-sued-...

Google Legal wants these cases to reach settlement or some other point of deterrence because they don’t want the real evidence and merits to enter public discussion.

Google not just saves reputation value but also counter-party price discovery. Whenever Corp Legal fires an employee like this, they always ask “will this case blow the budget on severance + litigation this year?” They don’t want anybody else to know what this number is, and it could effectively leak if a case doesn’t get settled.

While the linked article may not give many details on the merit of this case, what also is not reported is the realities of large well-funded corporate legal teams.
I find modern players tend to want to be neither of those things. They’re not adventurers or heroes. They’re just some dudes with their own characterization that somehow get looped into a quest and just sort of become very powerful by accident. Self awareness of how ridiculous the typical TTRPG power scaling is makes this pretty common imo.

A random dude, can / should canonically go from level 1 to a pretty high level over the course of an in game month if they’re busy doing things. At which point they’re basically a superhero relative to your average level 0 commoner peasant. Power gains are linear, but it’s a very steep climb.
Removing that ability removes one of the key functionality of these apps and why they are popular.

Seeing that someone is 100 ft away is a common start of a conversation. Maybe they live in the same apartment, at a local coffee shop, work in the same building. Which leads to... well...

This is a copy of the previous thread. As before, this latest reply just prompts the question: how can a broker promise that the collateral is good, but not the initial funds for the purchase? [1] Apparently, they have a way to say “oh no these funds are good, you can trust them” … but only for the collateral, not for customer funds that have lived for years in the same account.

And for that matter, how can bankruptcy even matter? These are all funds that live in a separate bucket from the rest of operations. Even in a bankruptcy, they wouldn’t disappear (like your coat at a dry cleaner’s.

[1] Recall the comment about how you’re implicitly supposing a “credible lockup of funds” primitive, which has a strange structure, on closer examination: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27694540
The second definition assumes that the law of large numbers applies to any instance. It is impossible to satisfy each and every time. And it may also be blind to inherenet inequalities (as insurance companies know).
Show HN: UI for Apache Kafka v0.4 released with smart filters and live tailing
How is that relevant, though? Even the M1 Max gets smoked by an i5 in single-core performance, and stands neck-and-neck in multicore. In a "fair" fight, Intel still takes the performance crown home. Density is relevant because the only argument I hear from M1 pundits is about performance-per-watt, which is only achieved through monopolizing the 5nm supply chain. When Intel is standing neck-and-neck on power draw with significantly higher clock speeds, single-core performance and IO bandwith, Apple's chips are going to lose their luster.

Plus, it's not like you need to use ARM to compete with that efficiency. Just 2 years ago AMD was shipping Ryzen laptop chips (like the 4800u) with similar x86 performance at a similar price point in a similar power envelope. How'd they do it? They designed it with 7nm lithography. It's not magic, just the obvious benefits of using the latest technology.

Oof. Niche dating app selling your data. Not good.
I've managed to delete a folder with GBs of important data because Syncthing has non-obvious ways of handling data. Thankfully, I have tons of backups of everything, so it wasn't a big deal, but since then I've been extremely paranoid when using Syncthing to make sure it doesn't happen again.
It's only a matter of time before the amount of bullshit at Google reach a too strong threshold and are obligated to switch to full openjdk vs their abandonware.
Unfortunately they are so mediocre they have made an incompatible bytecode so they will need some patches/translation layers atop jdk.
BTW they are claiming JDK 11 support for Android 13. Of course this is a lie that only apply to the stdlib and not runtime support such as e.g constant dynamics.
The issue with SMS, in my limited understanding, is commercial numbers tend to come through shortcodes and shortcodes have their own set of delivery rules. Nothing of the sort from voice calls. I haven't had any instances of voice calls not coming through.

Glimpse.ai | Multiple Engineering Roles | Baltimore or Remote | Full-time | VISA Sponsorship Available | $150k - $300k + Benefits + Equity | https://www.glimpse.ai

Glimpse.ai is a profitable, stable, and growing artificial intelligence startup that is building an NLP product that automatically writes content about any subject with the same level of quality, factual accuracy, and usefulness as a human. This product already has thousands of monthly paying subscribers and our MRR has been growing by 8-10% month over month.

Senior Machine Learning Engineer - Deep Learning https://careers.glimpse.ai/o/machine-learning-engineer

Our research is centered around making language modeling more accurate, fluent, and useful for users. We are able to write accurately about topics that are too recent for a model to have been trained on (such as writing about Elden Ring or Ukraine) and about topics that are extremely fact dense where current models would hallucinate and write inaccurately.

You would be at the intersection of research and production code - constantly ingesting research papers, building prototypes, and later turning those prototypes into production code.

Our ML work almost exclusively involves very heavy deep learning (transformers) and we primarily use PyTorch.

You will be working directly with our Founder/CEO (me!), who is leading the ML team, both as a manager and an individual contributor.

We would love to talk with anyone who has done research in text generation, information retrieval, or reinforcement learning for NLP tasks.

===

Senior Full Stack Engineer https://careers.glimpse.ai/o/full-stack-engineer

You would be responsible for taking our AI and allowing giving our users ways to use it and interact with it. What is the point of AI research if there is no way for anyone to use it and derive value from it?

Our stack primarily involves Ruby on Rails and React.js. We use technologies such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and RabbitMQ.

If you have industry experience doing full stack work (no matter what the stack), we would love to hear from you. We would also be very interested in talking with people who have the experience and desire for a Team Lead position.

Tell HN: Peripheral Gestures for Mobile Devices
Call to action:

Peripheral Gestures for Mobile Devices

--

A system where swiping and tapping gestures on the periphery of a mobile devices edge areas result in desired user initiated (or lack-there-of)((Deadmans Fidget [TM]))

---

Premise:

Current ; phones have a feature to call emergency services when multi-press of N on [button]

Proposed ; contact-swipes & region specific taps of the border of the screen may be programmatically defined to invoke actions.

---

e.g.

A corner perimeter swipe action ;

----

handset held in right hand

swipe right thumb up along edge of device and around top corner toward center line of device -> invoke action (user defined)

All such gestures can be recorded, some are standard, with multi-gestures:

Calling emerg service is any action of the following (TBD by std for i.e. ieee :)

-----

So incorporate the digital dexterity of the modern fidgit-*BIT* generations on or digital dexterity (I hope you got that pun)

------

So, I expect this may adapt the shape of phones into the shape of a nice pet rock....

Imagine gust a gesture that was personal to you, and yur pet rock, allowed you to make that call to Great Grand Ma and tell her how thankful you are she uploaded into the sediMANterra. (layers of man on earth) ((joking.. but serious abut perimeter based swiping gesture controls. Prior Art))
I have various static sites that I maintain, I recently added a new site created in Jekyll and wrote a bunch of content for it.

While I like Jekyll and I'll continue using it, I can definitely relate to the frustration when first using it. I get this feeling that I already know what I want Jekyll's HTML to look like, and now I need to work backwards and develop an understanding of Jekyll in order to figure out how to get Jekyll to produce the desired output.

By "HTML" I don't actually mean that I have a problem with embedding specific markup in the page, it's stuff like putting the files in the right place, getting the template to contain the right material, etc.

And to be clear, I'm going to continue using Jekyll since it seems more practical than e.g. Hugo given my constraints / available resources / etc, and I may even migrate some other sites I maintain to Jekyll, but Jekyll, like other static site generators, seems to throw a lot of mess in the way of simple desires, as the parent comment articulates.

Just good, solid, relationship advice that applies to both personal and professional relationships is to not get involved with people who badmouth their current or former employer/partner. You are just setting yourself up to be the next person they are publicly badmouthing.

If I want to vent about an employer, I don't name them on a globally available platform. It's unprofessional. If they did that to you, you could sue them.

This is a reason why, "Why are you leaving your current job" is a common interview question. You get minus points for badmouthing your current job.
