How often is that viable?

For me, I work at a FAANG like company and I kind of hate it. I'm doing work that touches 1-2 billion people but it's just not fun. For me, WFH sucks. My best times were in small companies with small teams where people had to work together to do stuff where as my FAANG job you just pull off of piece of the never ending list of work to do and do it.

I do feel the golden handcuffs though. I need the money to retire. I'd give it up for a job I was sure I'd like, for one that I think has a reasonably okay chance to succeed, and for one where if it succeeds I feel like I got a reasonable %.

To try to be clearer on those last points. I wouldn't need to replicate my FAANG like compensation. I just need to believe that when the company does well I don't feel that all I did was make the boss rich (which can be the case in small companies)

But, I no longer know what kind of job I'd be happy at.
They were very clear about why generics weren't there for a long time -- they weren't sure how to do it and keep things simple and build quickly. I'm just a simple code monkey but I think they did a decent job with it.

I picked this 3.2 Gen 2 hub for 10 bux, 10gbs, 3.2 usb, works great. I use it for my dual port keyboard + mouse, so I can just plug into my laptop or pc, so I only have to move 1 cable. Not sure why backwards compatible with usb 2 is a bad thing.

Commuting to those places really isn't time well-spent for me, so the faster I can get in and out, the better.

I recall when a Linux kernel dev broke it down like 1) files can be slow and correct, 2) or files can be fast and incorrect, 3) but if you want fast and correct, you need a database. Slashdot and other tabloids reported this as "Linux developer says Linux needs a Registry". (In the meanwhile a lot of devs have come around with sqlite.)
There are reasonable reasons to enforce MDM in some industries, e.g. healthcare, where not being able to prove that full disk encryption was turned on if an employee laptop is stolen can lead to fines large enough to end a company. The need to hire and retain talented developers leads us to do this in the least intrusive way possible while still complying with federal regulations, however.
An ICE car is a known risk. People know where the fire prone parts are, many carry extinguishers ( small, but still), and fire departments know how to quell such fires.

A Li-Ion fire cannot be stopped once it starts, it has to burn to the end. Recently there was a string of electric bus fires in Paris, and having unstoppable fires with thick black clouds in a dense urban city is not great. Solutions need to be found because it can become a real problem.
Thanks Ryan! There are a bunch of other things we'd like to include on our profiles, like work culture and communication as you said, but it'll take some time for us to add them :)

Yes, sourcing the information is tricky and we a lot of it by hand, which is why it isn't always perfect. Agree that it would be epic to be able to find primarily async jobs - something for us to think about.

Glad you were able to create the environment you wanted with Haekka!
Yes, it can easily do this hundreds of times with minimal loss of capacity (e.g. 5%) so long as temperature is well controlled, but depth of discharge is not really 0% (fully discharged) and it's not really 80% (fully charged).

They're made of of many hundreds of cells at different charge points, but likely 10-20% is as discharged as you're likely to get (without leaving the vehicle sitting for weeks on end) and 80% is as charged as you'll get. They have traded power density for lifetime and "charging rate".
Is the history in the artefact or the story?
Many USB-C docks use DisplayLink to create a virtual graphics card over USB, it is implemented as software that renders using your computers/laptops graphics card that then sends the output over USB to the DisplayLink controller.

Thunderbolt docks (and some USB-C docks) instead will use Alternate Mode to pass-through the DisplayPort directly from the computer/laptop to the attached monitor. There is no additional graphics card or PCIe device involved in the matter, and no virtual graphics rendering that is sending frames across USB.

DisplayLink is not great, especially on macOS, even on Windows it would cause random slow downs and in general when using it with multiple monitors it would cause random tearing and other issues. It was fine for spreadsheets and the like, but for video it broke down quickly.

Whereas alternate mode just passes through your graphics card output, so there is none of that, and instead you get the full rendering power.
Yes they have. Real wage stagnation and declining real wages for lower wage earners, especially among men, has been the economic story for the past 40 years, thanks to deregulation and deindustrialization. This isn't even a controversial idea. It's just data.

From the first bullet point of the summary:

"By contrast, middle (50th percentile) and bottom (10th percentile) wages
grew to a lesser degree (e.g., women) or declined in real terms (e.g., men)."
Yup, you're right, I missed that pair. But hopefully you get the general point on how it works :)
Complete nonsense. I can’t even reach most of my coworkers by chat after hours. Everyone in my office is gone before 6. This may be true for international workers or recent grads who don’t have families or friends local, but in my experience this stereotype of Googlers living on campus is mostly apocryphal and from the dot-com and 00s eta. I heard the same thing about Netscape, people working 100 hour weeks, sleeping under their desks.

The Google of 2022 has over 150k employees, the culture is way different than say, 2007. The average age of the employees these days is older.

Would be cool if something else could be done with the heat to get rid of the CO2, like a Sabatier reaction (sorry, a bit handwavy).
This is a marketing fail. Should have claimed, 'charges to 100% in 15 minutes, and can be overcharged to 125% in further 2-3 hours'.

> By weight, it offers between 380-500 Wh/kg, as compared to 260 Wh/kg in packages currently used by Tesla.

That's pretty huge if the company's claims hold up. That's in the ballpark where doing an EV conversion on an existing ICE car becomes a lot easier because you could theoretically just replace the original gas tank with 100-200 pounds of batteries and have a good-enough range to be useful for short/medium trips. And the car might end up lighter than stock.

I wonder what the material inputs are? Does this battery use cobalt or nickel or anything else that's similarly expensive? Or can these things in theory be made super cheap once the manufacturing scales up?
Yes I know but that is a lawyer we are talking about.
"should have noticed" sounds strange when we have already noticed, we're just not acting decisively. I'm thinking of climate change.

Tesla V3 stations are not "oversubscribed" like v2 stations, but they are hamstrung by a max grid connection of 350kW.

Once the charging station's own battery is depleted - if all four stalls are in use, they will each deliver 87kW.

That is laughably bad.
Reading the thread would also explain that you're discussing somebody's 'fantasy', not expectation or belief of causality.
I don't know your situation but I find discipline to be not very helpful as an explanatory variable: it's not something you can meaningfully change. What you can change is the overall environment, such that it's easier to do the thing: have an appointment with a trainer (or set some other time, even before/after work on particular days helps), attach a meaningful goal (weight loss, strength standards), etc.

Basically: reduce activation energy, increase desire.

This is blaming the victim instead of the ham-fisted limitations imposed by google.

There is no justifiable reason for google (or any of the cloud companies) to be imposing their arbitrary account locks on users.

I should be able to configure my gmail account with a setting that says never ever require anything other than my password to access it, because I know my password is strong and well protected. I don't want any of these misbehaving AI detections locking up my account for reasons that I don't want.

If someone else want to configure their account with these trip hazards, more power to them, but it's not ok for these cloud companies to impose it.

Another reason why I mostly self-host everything, but for less technical people who are not able to do so it's a huge problem. Let's not blame the victim.
The QuantumScape battery charges at blazing speeds, allowing a 0-80% charge in 15 minutes. It can retain more than 80% of its capacity after 800 cycles, which would represent about 240,000 miles (386,000 km) traveled in an electric car.

This is the quote. If it's one hour charge, i.e. 1C, lifepo4 batteries do that already.
Can someone explain to me what this means for startups where Tiger Global is an investor?

Some of you found cases where it says that something is more recent than it actually is.

I find it funnier when it finds results that are older than the real thing. How's that possible? For example, for "Tiktok", first result:

> How is there no outrage against ice vehicle fires killing people on a regular basis?

This ignores the fact that there is a genuinely novel risk with Lithium-Ion batteries, which is that they contain large amounts of "stranded energy" which can trigger new fires. See the linked video above for examples of car fires being extinguished, only to have the car then taken to a tow yard where the battery spontaneously started another fire 5 days later due to the massive amount of energy in a non-discoverable state and the very unstable nature of it. With a gas tank, you at least have a reliable way to drain it, and it's not so volatile as to just spark up by itself. Given the current situation, I wouldn't be surprised to see tow companies that refuse to accept EVs due to the unpredictable nature of them in wrecked form.
@jillesvangurp unfortunately your comment is typical of the lack of understanding around fire risk in vehicles. Gasoline vapor burns relatively cool in comparison to a trapped energy runaway thermal battery event. A fully charged battery contains an immense amount of trapped energy which once compromised has to escape. Gasoline doesn't burn unless super heated, while diesel doesn't catch fire at all which is one of the many reasons it is used in commercial vehicles.

But evidently, you are expected to understand (read: care enough to investigate) this accomplished assistant professor, defying all convention, does not place her name in the articles.

What you say is not true of everyone who meets the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for ASD–"meltdowns", or "what, why and how fast makes you feel overwhelmed" are not part of those criteria–so it is possible to have ASD (per DSM-5) yet not have those symptoms, and indeed there are people out there just like that.

Conversely, there are people for whom what you say is very true, but who don't meet the diagnostic criteria for DSM-5 ASD, and hence officially don't "have autism". People with anxiety disorders, panic disorder, OCD, etc, can have very similar (if not identical) experiences, yet they don't have the right set of other symptoms to meet the DSM-5 criteria for ASD.

I get the impression you are defining "autism" anecdotally, based on your own personal experiences and those of others you know, or based on popular information sources (as opposed to the research literature). When you define it that way, you may actually be talking about a rather different construct from what the DSM-5 is talking about.

Respectfully, I was hoping for something more DIY. I haven't used Amazon in some years and do not plan to return. I have been considering buying a second hand iPod like you mentioned. The youtube channel Dankpods has me convinced I can mod one to be fairly modernized while still just a dumb player, which is all I want.

I dont require audiophile DAC, I just need decent battery, as few features as possible, and massive storage. It is a plus also if I can just address it as a drive rather than needing itunes as it is a little flaky on Linux.

One thing that piqued my interest is the new raspi pico I think it is called. Not sure if anybody has looked into it yet to any extent, but at least the price and form factor are right

Hundreds of times for an appliance like a car that should last 20+ years is absolutely dreadful. Plenty of people go through a gas of tank a week. A single year is 52 full charges. 5 years already puts it well above 250 charges.

Python is still the language that I use to teach others simple programming concepts (basic control flow, branching, I/O), and also for automating simple tasks that aren't handled well by shell/sed. I even use it as a simple calculator.
