One of the replies further down had a more concrete example. I did not see any Googlers refute it:

To give a concrete example of what it is like to work with her I will describe something that has not come to light until now. When GPT-3 came out a discussion thread was started in the brain papers group. Timnit was one of the first to respond with some of her thoughts. Almost immediately a very high profile figure has also also responded with his thoughts. He is not Lecun or Dean but he is close. What followed for the rest of the thread was Timnit blasting privileged white men for ignoring the voice of a black woman. Nevermind that it was painfully clear they were writing their responses at the same time. Message after message she would blast both the high profile figure and anyone who so much as implied it could have been a misunderstanding. In the end everyone just bent over backwards apologizing to her and the thread was abandoned along with the whole brain papers group which was relatively active up to that point. She has effectively robbed thousands of colleagues of insights into their seniors thought process just because she didn't immediately get attention.

The thread is still up there so any googler can see it for themselves and verify I am telling the truth.
What is the alternative people should be using then?
100x, meaning 100x as productive as the avg? Arguably impossible.
Apple | Debugger Engineer | Full-time | Onsite | Cupertino

The LLDB team at Apple is looking for an engineer to work on the LLDB debugger. LLDB is a core part of Apple's developer tools, used internally to debug Apple's software stack and externally by millions of developers. You’ll be able to work on different levels of the stack: from supporting our existing and upcoming platforms to developing new features to make debugging even better. Most of your work will be open source, on llvm.org (http://llvm.org/) and github.com (http://github.com/) where you’ll collaborate with the LLVM and Swift community.

If you love working on low-level tools you should check out the details here: https://jobs.apple.com/en-us/details/200311412/debugger-engi...
Maybe you're right, it's probably nothing. Of course there is no omniscient illuminati, as even just for the omniscience part, first you would have to somehow subordinate all the principled thinkers working at companies like google and facebook, of which there are at least dozens. This is after stacking entire sectors of academia and their appendant policy arms with what would essentially be intellectual zombies who did nothing to resist the agenda of said plot.

That's hundreds of fellowships and thousands of adjunct jobs. Even if you funded most of them, it would take several millions of dollars. Journalists are far too curious, and we can rely on them to object to any falsehood and propaganda such a scheme would require to survive. Really, all 6 or 7 media conglomerates working together to push the same messages or to kill stories that would expose said plot seems pretty far fetched. The logistics alone would be baffling.

The only plausible way that could happen would be through a kind of religious hysteria of people who imagine themselves as enlightened through an awakening, and on a path to redemption that requires them to efface themselves, dismantle their formerly sinful lives and prevent others from sinning in a similar way. It's absurd in a modern era. It would have to be wrapped in a political agenda, which educated people are basically immune to, especially ones who are largely agnostic. The amount of effort they would need just to suppress naturally occuring logical questions that would imply a conspiracy which would unravel under the most minor scrutiny would be so immense as to not be in the realm of serious consideration.

There are however, movements and ideologues reading from the same script that do things like creating a rail workers strike during planting season. It doesn't take a conspiracy, just the logic of an idea.

> This how Apple Pay works to make a physical payment (which is the main case of this thread): 1 - Click two times on the iPhone powerbutton 2 - Unlock the phone with the FaceID 3 - Take the phone and put it on top of the terminal
Google Pay (using a Galaxy S22...) 1 - Unlock the phone using the fingerprint reader 2 - Put it on top of the terminal

i thought it was something more serious.

anyway, apple already solved this using express pay, which is faster than google pay:

Hi, I'm a full stack developer. Looking for remote roles in the UK/US, or non-remote Edinburgh/Bristol(UK).

I have considerable experience working with web agencies, direct to end clients, educational institutions, and within large tech companies.

This means I've picked up some decent experience developing(many) website's front and back ends, planning UXs, writing specs, proposal documents to clients, working with designers, peer developers, marketing, and stakeholders.

I'll happily talk about salaried roles. However I am set up with a services Ltd, so I am available to quickly jump into fixed duration contracts in my day rate range - £400-£500 ( $550-$680, Depending on tax).

I'm not the pickiest, so if you're happy to pay that rate I will wade through your changelists and bugfixes and likely provide significant value on top of that as time goes on.

Cheers
Rather than JS, one can use Caddy's built-in template engine [0] to include headers/footers server-side (but way more powerful than SSI):

{{include "/includes/header.html"}}

No JS, no external build step, still static HTML files -- just pieced together by the server at request-time. Works great [1]. (Or use plain Markdown, and have Caddy's template engine render it as HTML on-the-fly. Your choice.)

I've never really liked those franchises, even though they do have AAA production value behind them. Uncharted and God of War in particular just feel like button-pressing simulators to me; they feel like 8 hour long cutscenes with a few QTEs and points where you can wiggle your joystick. Maybe I'm just spoiled by gameplay-heavy titles as of late, but a lot of Sony franchises feel like they'd be better as movies instead. That being said, the new Uncharted movie bombed at the box office so I don't know who's at fault here...

It looks like all CEO's have agreed on legalizing pyramid schemes.
I mean, if you say "do X or I quit" and the company responds "we're not doing X, bye" is it incorrect to say that the employee quit? That's the situation here, Gebru issued demands and said she'd quit if they weren't met. Google said, "we accept your resignation".
This is my favorite piece of music right now. I love that this exists. But the title is quite misleading. What is amazingly presented is not the Epic of Gilgamesh but rather, "... a few of the opening lines of part of the epic poem". It is a great 3 minutes and 55 seconds, but don't fire up this URL thinking you are going to hear the entire epic.

You're not alone. These sort of games offer very little opportunity for players to creatively express themselves. This is more like watching a movie than playing a game.
> if you write all of your pages in HTML, then they're going to stay HTML unless you invest the effort in writing a parser+translator that converts all of your content into Markdown or Wikitext or whatever else you might want to migrate that content into.

The designed virtue of Markdown is its ease of authoring; why would you want to convert to it? It's surely easier to convert directly from HTML to whatever other format you want than from Markdown to that format.

I can't speak for the intention of the purchaser, but in their position I'd be looking to just unlock the teams. My impression of Square-Enix is that they've frankly just never been a company comfortable with being international, and it has shown for a very long time now. Just let the teams go produce something without the Eastern and Western design, management, marketing... heck, nearly all the philosophies clashing and producing much less than the sum of the parts.

(Since I know how things work nowadays, I'm not saying the philosophies necessarily intrinsically clash or that they can't be reconciled by other entities, just that to my eye, Square-Enix in particular is a company with a multi-decade track record of failing to do so.)

Sun machines always seemed to have weird environment-dependent behavior. In college, one of our classmates got the nickname "the human eclipse" because no matter what time of day, no matter what else was going on, when he walked into the Sun lab the machines all went down.
That's what kills me. A person in a privileged position inside a company with all the easily-accessed data available to make concrete conclusions about the actual energy consumption of these systems chooses to not learn from that, but instead to publicize wildly inaccurate guesses with no basis in reality. And this person is an "ethicist" somehow.

Hey folks, I've been working with wycats and my colleague Chirag Patel on Starbeam for the last few months. We prefer to work in the open, but this repo is still a work in progress and is definitely not ready for public consumption, other than very very very early adopters. We were planning to reveal more in June when things were more buttoned up, and certainly didn't expect to see this on the HN front page!

That said, we'd be happy to answer any questions people have about Starbeam, with the understanding this repo is still very WIP.
GTA Online ;)

Even today it is hard to buy a PS5. So, no wonder they aren't pushing it that hard.
It's true that you can make an immersive-sim without the "Deus Ex" title, but over the course of four games they've built a sort of cohesive universe and storyline and many people - myself included - would really like to revisit that universe. DXHR and DXMD weren't the same as the original, but I didn't get the feeling that they were trying to reproduce it. I think they wanted to do a sort something in the same style but in a way that appealed to a broader group of people, so it was necessarily simplified (and hamstrung further by being the first game the studio made, the Eidos/Squenix turmoil and finally the rush to deliver).

HBomberguy's video hammered on a few points to deliberately make it seem more stupid than it was, and he knows it because he pulls back and calls the game "fine". I have a fairly unique perspective on this because by pure chance I'd played through all the Deus Ex games in the months before the HBG video dropped so I had an extremely fresh perspective on it. I'd also played through the original Deus Ex as a kid so I got to experience it when it was new and shiny. The video is very careful about emphasising DXHR's weak points while downplaying or ignoring many of the original's issues (or flat-out lying about them). The latter two entries in the series were troubled for sure, but they were more than "fine".

Edit: Actually I just remembered I wrote up a list of issues with the review because my friends were talking it and I wanted to share them in a way that didn't blast a wall of text in the group chat. So just in case you're curious what specifically I meant you can check it out here (content warning: I am a bit sweary) https://gist.github.com/smcl/666a0156b13d7a681e0378b836b36e4...

You can hire managers but this doesn't mean you'll be successful without learning the ropes yourself. If you are serious about starting a business, learning the management side as well as all the various supporting groups like HR, legal, finance is going to be a must. You don't have to be a deep expert in any of these, but you absolutely need a good enough understanding to manage the people managing these areas.
Perhaps this is a hot take, but when I see ML being used (for the most part), it's because people do not fundamentally understand OR know how to solve the problem in question.

And instead of understanding what's going on, and solving the problem efficiently, instead it's "throw GB's or TB's of data at an algo that we tweak and hope for the best".

Sure, it gets results for massive processing times and data. And sure it's "fuzzy" and can fail on really stupid stuff and provide bad answers confidently. But it'll get the next VC funding line, won't it?

Agreed about this middleman being particularly undesirable.

You may be interested in checking out some non-FB software around this concept. Something like: https://immersed.com/

Of course you’ll probably end up running it on FB hardware unfortunately…
I'm a random stranger on the internet, so with no intent on telling you how to live or interact :), My own limited biased subjective 0.0005 cents:

1. Original question: "Who's still using this?" is direct and to the point; I grok it. But note that some people in many contexts may interpret it... aggressive. Human mind fills in detail in blunt / short sentences. Politeness in some cases is filling in those blanks pre-emptively. Uncharitable reading of your question would fill in the blanks in "Who's still using this?" as "WHO is still using this?" expanded to "WHO is still using this???" expanded to "WHO is stupid enough to still be using this???". They/We would be wrong, but be cognizant of good and bad interpretations of writing.

But that's very minor and extremely audience specific. Bigger point:

2. Charitable reading. This is such a hard thing to do for all of us, especially on the interwebs, especially when there's even a minor difference opinion. I thoroughly, genuinely, believe that the keyboard-shortcut poster provided best possible explanation and tried very heard to type it up and come up with meaningful analogy. I will totally steal it! :) When you read it / interpreted it as a rant / over-my-dead-body, I in turn did not feel you gave them a charitable reading, which subconsciously meant I did not give you a charitable reading either.

So what I think would've made it appear as a true effort to understand, would've been... making a true effort to understand - reading the keyboard shortcut post with a mindset of "what information can I gleam from this / what can I learn / which insight can I take from this". Which, FWIW, is an approach that I think is phenomenally useful in life, I'm actively working on myself, and am successful some small percentage of time :D

(again, not claiming some useful insight, but since you asked, my 100 Croatian Lipa :). All the best!

This results in a dramatic reduction in admin and increased revenue for the venue and more people playing sport.
