I would say that's extremely likely. Make a list of your favorite tech companies from 1990 or 2000, and see how many still have technology teams qualified to tie their own shoelaces today, exist, and haven't turned into sleazeware companies.

You can calculate your annualized failure rate. That's a best-case on the odds your funds will continue to exist next year. Move fast / break things / fail fast / developer sprints / etc. speeds this process up even further. Crypto companies also have a giant target painted on their backs for hackers (including rogue state-level actors, some of whom just had large sums confiscated by Western institutions).

Something funny about Windows is that there are no documented system calls. That is, if you want to use some OS service you either call a function in a DLL or you make a COM call to a COM service.

If you click on the "show" button in this page

you can see that the syscall numbers change from release to release!

I'm pretty sure that this tool

Now the real question is whether bankruptcy would topple USDC since Coinbase is one of the major backers [0]. It's holding steady right now, but so was UST a few days ago. USDC has $48B supply and is propping up DeFi apps on many other networks (just look at AAVE [1] and Curve [2], two multi-chain protocols), so if it falters, there could be massive fallout.

I think the FAA is trying to root out and punish buzz jobs. I can't imagine they'd take enforcement action on anyone who had an emergency (which both #1 and #2 would fall into).

For non-emergencies, I love watching and hearing a good low pass, but these impromptu displays could get annoying for airport neighbors and they have killed people when someone gets a little too sporty in their display. If the airport Saturday morning breakfast low passes all went away, I'd be slightly sad but it's probably for the best.

Trent's case is an interesting one. I don't know what his actual intent was, but unless it was clearly a show-off-only low pass, I think the FAA should let it go.

So you expect roughly 50% of people to hate you, and for you to hate about 50% of people? Seems a miserable way to look at it.

The fact is that choices are limited. Things like ranked choice voting might start to change that. Maybe we could see other major parties at some point. The fact that we have only two main parties is a product of your (and most people's) sort of game theory mindset - that you have to oppose the other side even if your choice isn't great.

I've seen several companies build a Slack bot as a sort of "command line" like internal tooling system. We did this at my previous company. Like you said, it's easy for a backend dev to spin up Slack (text)-based internal tools easily. It works pretty well for many use cases, though it is suboptimal for things that really do require a UI (eg an internal tool that needs to display graphs).

After I left my previous company, I created a SaaS (https://www.airplane.dev/) that makes creating these kinds of internal tools pretty easily. If you write pure backend code/Python scripts/SQL/etc, Airplane will auto-generate the corresponding UI and also allow execution through a Slack bot.
I don't think Coinbase can go bankrupt because users leave the platform. They would go bankrupt because of mismanaged funds in that case. Let's say all users withdraw their fiat currencies and also cryptocurrencies, Coinbase will still have money in their own bank for sure, unless they store their own money on their platform, which is highly unlikely.

Even if 100% users withdraw 100% of their funds, Coinbase takes a transfer fee from all of those withdrawals, so they'll get even more money in their account in that case.

Context matters. The LGBTQ+ community is not known for having weapons and for bringing those to the table during debates. It is not known for committing violence either.

This contrasts severely with the crowd that Trump was addressing at the time. Their spaces were filled with calls to weaponization, civil wars and conspiracies against the system itself. The messages were written after people had made threats and refused to engage with the system. This is why it was so dangerous at the time, as we can now see clearly with insight after what ultimately happened.

Lori Lightfoot's call to arms is not happening within that context.

Simply looking at the dictionary will enlighten you: "something that makes people want to take action and get involved in an attempt to deal with a bad situation. He issued a call to arms on behalf of the environment."

Using this example from Macmillan Dictionary, no one is gathering firearms to shoot at the wind. What they are doing is paying attention to the issue and challenging the opposition within the scope of the law and political system.

The LGBTQ+ community is simply lawyering up, making noise about upcoming laws, legally protesting and pushing back using the existing political system. This is usually in the form of strongly written letters to representatives.

All of this is not only legal, it is encouraged behavior in the American political system.

In the end, being LGBTQ+ is not a political identity. It is not "leftist" or "rightist". It is simply the way some people are. Some of them extremist on the left while others are extremist on the right. LGBTQ+ individuals are found on the entire spectrum of American politics.

SQLite was originally great for desktop applications.

Problem is, there's still a huge market for these apps but everything has moved to the web (no one is making desktop apps anymore). So having a full-blown RDMS is overkill for these kind of app, and now SQLite is starting to fill these web app needs.

@sqlite - if you are reading this, any word on merging WAL2 and BEGIN CONCURRENT into main? There clearly is a new class of needs to do so in this world that has completely moved over to web app development (which introduces concurrency problems never experienced on desktop). Any thoughts of focusing more on these web related needs for SQLite (or maybe even fork your own code base to have a more enhanced SQLite version targeted at web needs)?
The money we make pales in comparison with the size of our contributions to the company. Especially so if you are in a value-adding position and not something like internal tooling. Management and executives are DEFINITELY underpaying us relative to what we bring to the table for them.

Maybe that is one of the reason headcounts have ballooned and complexity has increased so much -- an attempt to minimize individual impact.

(edit- NOT knocking internal tooling, it's just that it is traditionally considered a cost center)

Coinbase is such a shit company...My interactions with them have been absolutely awful. The ended up trying to use a AMEX gift card attached to my papal to buy some crypto, got no error but the funds never went through. Apparently they didn't like that transaction and was flagged as fraud. I was told I can't open a support ticket or have it reviewed for 2 months, "they can't disclose the reasoning behind this." So I had to dump everything I had built up in that account into USD and withdraw it.
> I told them my favorite language was Scheme

Well done for being honest and not tailoring your knowledge set to the requirements of the position, like many people do. Often people learn something just because it's advertised fiercely in a company's 'requirements'. This is why I refuse to learn React, Vue, Angular etc because although they're required often, a baseline of HTML, CSS & JS will outlast the new 'soup of the day' framework.
Is there a better crypto on ramp though?

Coinbase will let me transfer up to $1000 worth of crypto off their platform immediately after purchase even though the funds haven't settled in their account yet. Every other crypto platform I've used, forces a wait of 3, 7 or 10 days before you can withdraw your new crypto.

you know, I'd be very curious what kinds of radical interview approaches teams have considered to break out of the LC mold. A little LC is useful in an interview situation, if an engineer can't do a simple 20-30 line coding problem or reason over the constraints/design space - then there is a good chance that they will need help with core coding in the day to day (which may not be a deal breaker in every employer).

A lot of LC tends to hit on "specialist in LC". We overweight this type of candidate in our interview processes, mainly as "specialist in LC" no longer translates to "highly interested in Comp Sci fundamentals" or "Algorithm expert" - many grind LC just to get a job and promptly forget the fundamentals.

A few interviews that I've seen gaining prominence.

- Code Review interviews. Give a sample code review, and have the candidate provide feedback. I'd love to see this extended with just having the candidate write code review comments in whatever code review tool the company uses - you could then discuss the code review afterwards. Clarify ahead of time the tool that will be used for code review.

- Debugging broken code. Let the candidate show off how they approach dealing with broken/buggy code, clarify ahead of time the language/environment for debugging.

- Build a service/program to a spec via take home. Does the candidate build the system properly? do they exceed expectations? skip requirements? test the code? work double time?

- Given a problem, build a working solution in your IDE of choice.

I'm not even convinced that 5 45 minute to 1 hour interview block is the right size. Why not do a 3 hour time block where the candidate has to build something, then review with them at the end? This is common in interviews with for MBA-type positions.
Curious, where have you been staying with the egregious misrepresentation? What sorts of things were false?

We've used Airbnb about 2x/year for a while now and the worst we've had is a house that's a bit dirty (but never to the point we'd leave). But, most of our stays are rural, smaller towns, or western Europe, so maybe it's a location thing?

I dislike the pricing visibility (fees and taxes only shown later, and sometimes the feed are astronomical). That's probably my biggest gripe with the platform.

I don't think you can really compare UST and USDC like that. USDC has major backing by very large players in the space while UST is backed by... just Terra?

But I agree on the last part, if USDC looses its peg, large parts of the ecosystem will be fucked. But considering who is managing + supporting USDC, it'll take a large event for USDC to lose its peg.
Where did I say that politicians have the right to stay on a private website? Yes, Twitter has the right to ban people. As do restaurants not serve certain people. But if a restaurant decides to not serve Jews let's say, I will obviously condemn them.

If you believe in free speech you should have absolutely condemned Twitter when they banned the president.
> So it is a little surprising to me that crypto assets wouldn’t be treated similarly, which is probably why the SEC is demanding this disclosure.

I only know what I read from the article.

But for me, it seemed like the disclosure was required, not because the crypto funds would be used to settle company debts, but rather, this has never been tested in court. So, it’s highly likely that customer accounts would be protected in a crypto bankruptcy, but we don’t have any precedent on it, so we don’t know this to be the case.
AirCover just sounds like a rebrand of their existing policy. They've always offered an "swap for similar or refund" policy when hosts cancel.
This is an issue I take a lot of personal offense with.

I have met more than a few people who unironically think saying things like "White people are so stupid" or "I hate white people" is fine, but saying something like "Black people like fried chicken" is a harmful and racist stereotype which is unacceptable. Their reasoning is that it is impossible to be racist to the majority. That doesn't even make sense, but I've found it is impossible to convince this kind of person otherwise. Instead, I tell them their comments are personally offensive to me and they are hurting my feelings. I've yet to hear a single one apologize.

So I've made it a personal goal to purge these racists from my social circles, and to steer clear of people with this attitude.

The imposition that these reactions are caused by something called pollen food syndrome seems a little ridiculous to me. I tried to research but couldn't find any data, can anyone find data that show a trend of increasing pollen for several decades? I wonder if instead these reactions are at least partially caused by over-prescription of antibiotics in the general population which is altering the role of bacteria in human immune systems (https://aacijournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s1322...). Seems just as likely, using inductive logic.

The point, which they probably should have spelled out better, was that std::string contains a char* that aliases everything there might be a pointer to. It is often hard to prevent pointers being created to things; calling a function that takes a "T const&" argument, the compiler is typically obliged to assume that a pointer to the argument was taken and retained.

So, the "*count" in the example is a stand-in for a zillion other things you would actually have written, and that would also be affected by aliasing assumptions.
