I started as a Jest core contributor before joining Meta. It's arguably the reason I work there now, and I'm really excited for the move.

Meta created Jest and a lot of the features that it's known for, but it's true that it hasn't been invested in for a few years and most of the recent features were created by the community.

With this move, Meta is showing their commitment to Open Source and Jest will be able to grow with ownership through the OpenJS Foundation led by the Jest core team and the Jest community.
I started the process of looking for a standard that would hopefully work better with the countless automated tracking systems (ATS) you're asked to work with as an applicant. Turns out there really isn't one and most advice is "standard formatting in a Word document."

The fact that there isn't really any sort of decent open standard is shocking to me. Almost every single person entering adulthood will have professional experience they need to track.

I think I've settled on storing and updating the data in YAML, then building tools to produce JSON in the JSONResume format, HTML in Schema.org, and XML. At least this way it'll be easy to update, and it's the least burdensome path if I have to convert it to another standard later.
The person I am replying to is very kind indeed. The rest of society obsessed with this political correctness madness are extremely hostile, engaging in shaming and generally have sadistic vibes of oppressing people with their moral superiority – which has zero basis except they discovered a new offending word to pile up on others.

This needs to stop IMO.
If you look at the last ~40 years of government policy in the USA, and focus on where the Republicans and Democrats are in alignment (neoliberal trade policy & outsourcing of manufacturing, steadily increasing military-industrial budgets, and no-strings-attached bailouts of Wall Street firms), then you get a picture of the country as a corporation where the politicians are essentially little more than corporate middle managers.

The middle manager has a rather unusual job - keep the corporate board and the shareholders wealthy and happy, and keep the rank-and-file employees productive and happy. The former job is done more in private, the latter job is done more in public. (Note how certain politicians notoriously stated the need for having both public and private positions, which fits this model).

Somewhere along the way, the middle managers had a bright idea: if we ensure the rank-and-file employees distrust and hate one another more than either us or the corporate board, we can keep this whole thing rolling along, even while we screw them over and enrich ourselves and the board! Genius. For a while, anyway.
For when the call comes...

It is prudent to err the side of giving the benefit of the doubt to the entity with relatively less power. I see no reason to instinctively jump to Google's defense here, they are more than capable of defending themselves.

I gotta say, electric door opening is one of the big reasons I'll never own a Tesla. In an emergency, you can't waste time trying to remember where to find and how to use the mechanical override.

As a side note, how many Tesla owners here train their passengers on how to get out in an emergency before giving them a ride?

Every year, landsats measuring soil temperature shows a spike in temperature at around spring planting. And this is because commercial agriculture kills off the soil in order to plant a single crop, maximized on yield. And every year, the soil fertility gets worse, because the ecology of fungi and microbes are not established or accumulating in the soil. It’s just planting on dirt.

It’s not just nutrients. Living soil retains water, and regulates the release of water That has an impact on the microclimate.

Going one step further, planting _edible_ native plants yields useful resources for humans, and helps decentralize food production systems. Add onsite composting and greywater.
The whole team left, so it doesn't seem like the author was a snowflake in this case.
I have used card database files before with success. https://cr.yp.to/cdb.html

Have your process regularly update the CDB file from a blob store like S3. Any deltas can be pulled from S3 or you can use a message bus if the changes are small. Every so often pull the latest CDB down and start aggregating deltas again.

CDB performs great and can scale to multiple GBs.
I feel like that's one big hurdle in tech in general. the best and brightest want to work on development of the best new shiny thing. but maintaining quality and "maintenance engineering" is the boring but important part in terms of reliability...but that's when the geniuses bolt and leave the company to do something else.
Just felt like I wanted to contribute something positive here. I have used Airbnb extensively for the past 5 years. I used to live 1 month at a time at one place and then switch. And I only had 1 singe visit (for a daily visit) where the host canceled and at this time I got back my money + 80 euro.
Does Meta contribute financially to the foundation?
It sure has to be much, much better than free. Especially if your pricing is 'contact sales'.
Okay, that's a pretty big goalpost shift. In nearly 60 years of Star Trek, we've now got 4 seasons where some main characters aren't strictly cisgender and straight (but the majority of the couplings are still between straight, cisgender characters). In what regard did Discovery "fail"? As far as I understand, it's been pretty highly acclaimed.
Yeah, I was about to say, I want no parts of this track that you want to get back on. If my kids bring home white people they want to marry, I no longer have to worry about the repercussions.
Pushy interviewers are my favorite, since that's my personal love language, and combative people usually respond well to appropriate pushback. Plain rude? I'll walk out first, watch me.
It also doesn't help when the previous administration specifically targets you with punitive tax policies.

Just because something is widely experienced doesn't mean we must dismiss criticisms of it.
Maybe, but I'd probably finish the interview anyway. It's good practice for learning how to calm down after you've been upset/slighted/abused, and you've already likely allocated the time.

I might make a quick crack like: "Wow. Must be important. Anyhow, let's get back to what we were doing." in order to see what the reactions of others are and whether I get an apology. But I might not. Shrug.

However, the probability of my taking a job there would be close to zero after that. It's just a huge red warning flag.
As a network security person, if you can't MitM, then monitoring and filtering will simply move to the endpoint.

Monitoring is an absolute necessity and positive thing on certain networks.
This rocks. I wood chipped a portion of my lawn and now grow fruit/berries there. Every morning after the kids get on the bus I walk around, pull some weeds and dig into the chips and dirt to see what's going on down there. Very relaxing.

I think you're Anthropomorphizing the Lawnmower here. The author is saying that while at Google these things happened to her because Google is a massive impersonal machine which hires talented, creative and sensitive people, pays them huge money and then dumps them in a technical bear pit with the executive leadership as audience.

I have never really needed one. Then again I live in high trust society. Currently buying appartment, but I kinda believe enough that either the realtor or the bank wouldn't really try to cheat me. Or that best I could do is choose someone else.

Same is true for most others. Things in life really rarely go to court or rarely is there any bespoke contracts.
I should have been more specific ; YC made reddit.

I'm sure, you knew what I meant, but I still should have been more clear.

I think it's simply fair to provide context and compare with other countries. While the US immigration process sucks compared to many countries, it very likely is in the top half of the world - most countries are simply worse.

I've lived in places where you have a zero chance of getting permanent residency, let alone citizenship. Even if you marry a citizen.

A friend of mine lives in a similar country. On paper there is a route to permanent residency, but no one gets it unless they're well connected to a senior government official. Lots of people living there for 30+ years who have to renew their status every few years.

In parts of Switzerland, your neighbors will vote on whether to grant you citizenship.

Of course - it is fair to criticize the US immigration process - particularly in regards to Chinese and Indians. It's also perfectly fair to be grateful that their is a path.
Can you imagine anything more un-American and yet ironically American than "welcome to the USA, now shut up. Also, draconian Kafkaesk rules now govern your life for the entirety of the immigration process"
The way I understood it is: both

I might be totally mistaken though.
Or you make that your central bank is independent from your president, and that only qualified majority + accords from your judicial power can modify the target of your central bank. (Edit: to be clear: target and not policy. The central bank can still choose how they will reach their target).

But you need an effective republic for this, and one that have a hint of democracy.
I do a lot of meetings with a fair amount of companies and while it's not a regular occurance, some people think hostility towards others is acceptable. The best thing we can do regardless of where we stand is call those people out immediately and let them know that their behavior is unacceptable. You either get an apology or you quickly learn that working at X for Y isn't worth it.
If only it could speed up whatever it is in the Node project that is blocking Jest's adoption of ES modules, including their mocking :-(
Misleading title. In the article he insinuates that it was because it was an un-approved side project he was doing on company time. That context is important.

Thanks, this is helpful as I go through various interview processes right now.

Better yet: as readers, we can buy a paper in that nearby news-stand and be sure we can read it safely. Print papers do not come with spies that follow us as we walk through the city nor start playing loud voice ads once we turn a particular page, etc.
For what it's worth, 400 years is about 14 generations, and would constitute several thousand direct ancestors (~ 16K). Even accounting for pedigree collapse over the generations, for the vast majority of (non-Native Americans) Americans only a tiny sliver of those ancestors would have been on the continent at the time, if any.
that's super anoying, as of some time you do not see cors requests in dev tools and basically only way to debug those issues was to use mitmproxy, and that's now also unnecessary complicated

There is also env SSLKEYLOGFILE, that you can use on connection with Wireshark, but I didn't tested that yet with chrome

I understand why it's nice from security point of view, but adding option to disable those in chrome://flags would be much better way
I didn't know cameras were an issue. OpenCamera just works for me with no issues.
Battery don't just innovate on density. They also innovate on how much heat they produce and how they are cooled.

> is lifetime on solid state batteries well known yet?

We need to get away from the term 'solid state' battery. There is not one 'solid state' battery. Just as with Li-Ion there is a massive difference between different versions.

But for non of those batteries we have real live use in large uses-cases like cars.

QS in particular promises pretty good lifetime but they also don't report all the data many people would want to see.
Totally spot on. When oil is evil, many products become evil which very few people realize.
In academic language this is called "the many labels you can put to a population density chart".
I'm interested though. Any starter guide?
He also wasn't landing at an airport with help from ATC. If you put an aircraft down on an unprepared beach/field, and walk away, that was a good landing irrespective of any damage done.

For many pilots, a "crash" must be unintentional. Deliberately putting an aircraft down somewhere other than a runway is "ditching" or a forced landing, but never a crash.
I'm not so sure you know what a good distance is from the car in front of you.
Quite a few years ago, a buddy of mine got an incentive ride in the back seat of an F-18 while he was in the Navy. The pilot handed over the controls to him and started to walk him through some aerobatic maneuver when my friend just executed whatever it was (I don't remember the specifics).

The pilot was astounded that a novice flyer would perform the maneuver so well and asked if my pal had any simulator time. His response: "I played F/A-18 Hornet on my Mac a lot."

Hey, some people are still hosting their databases on clunky old IDE hard drives! Let's not be insensitive to their lived experience for the sake of technical novelty.
If you need something stronger than WEP you have WPA2 and WPA3.

Meta is a backer of the Linux Foundation which OpenJS is a part of and has donated $22,000 to the Jest Open Collective which was created by Meta in 2016 to support non-employee Jest contributors. Jest actually has all the funds we need right now and our bigger issue is finding ways to spend it!
This has TempleOS feel.
Meta has contributed $22k to the Jest open collective which currently sits at $65k. https://opencollective.com/jest
Yup, I knew I wasn't the first one to see an opportunity here. :) Tidelift sounds great, thank you!
Is Meta moving away from Jest or is it still used internally?
I've used RestructuredText quite extensively (my company uses it). I can see why people do not want to use it.

1. The specification for the syntax is decent but not really comprehensive. There's zero chance you could write a compatible implementation from it. To be fair this is true for the original Markdown but I think there's been a lot of effort to make fully defined versions (e.g. CommonMark), but...

2. The only implementation is the Python one. Frankly Python sucks. The Docutils code has no type annotations so good luck reading it, which you will have to do because...

3. The actual Docutils API is very badly documented. This is easily the biggest flaw. I have implemented a couple of custom directives for my company's docs and it was extremely frustrating to get it working. Pretty much down to using grep.app to search for examples of other random people that have figured it out.

So I would strongly recommend not using RST. I've been wondering what would be better for a while - normal Markdown is just not rich enough for good docs. This looks pretty nice though.

Latex output is nice, but not really super important in 2022 and definitely not worth the flaws of RestructuredText.

Do not use RestructuredText.
You’re not going point to point a foot above the surface unless you’re over water (calm seas at that). Soviets built a concept plane that did just this, though. Airplanes are more efficient near the ground than a little bit away, but not as efficient as at normal cruising altitudes.
Thank you for taking the time to explain this.
Where is that number coming from? I assure you it's much more complicated than something you can express with a single number.
From what I read, "toxic" is an exaggeration of the work environment and undermines the message that OP is trying to convey.
Not having money isn't a catch 22.

It's just not having money.

And hence not having money to burn on a patent attorney "just in case."

Under-capitalization means some options are off the table, licensing a patent in this case instead of manufacturing.

On the other hand, it brings sunk-cost thinking to a head. If you don't think the thing is worth manufacturing, then why invest time and blood in trying to convince other people?

Also, patents are expensive. Because you'll be footing any bill for asserting it in a court...and in China per the scenario you imagine because a patent only gives you some legal recourse if someone copies the invention. A patent doesn't prevent copying.

So either just build the thing, or move on. Good patent attorneys have better options.

Good luck.

This is a direct response to your obviously wrong explicit statement, that FAFSA has little checks against fraud, and implied that any SSN will get you through.

I linked the document backing up my direct claim to the contrary, that the only way to trick FAFSA is to actually assume another's identity, because the applicants SSN, DoB, and name, must all match.

School's are also liable for any lack of due diligence.

So read what you wrote, then what I wrote, then read the linked document, then read this:

I suspect your immediate reprehension to being outed as ignorant causes you to jump to ad hominem, externalizing your conscious, knowing attitude of being blatantly wrong, and too embarrassed to admit otherwise.

Is that accurate?

Please reply with specific facts and sources to further dismiss or deny any part of my statement, so I can further demonstrate how your ramblings are little more than utterances of an ignorant person, grasping for a conspiracy - where incompetence clearly suffices.

In my personal life, YouTube is the only thing that seems irreplaceable. My contacts are in Google as well, but i have non Google for all backups and email and search.

In fact, I'm considering a switch to Apple just to try out a completely deGoogled routine (barring work email).
Yeah, games are so misunderstood. It's not just for kids, and it's not just entertainment, it just happens to be that way because of the stigma. They are interactive experiences with software and that could be virtually anything. The learning and training potential is huge if companies started making proper games again (where the experience is priority) and not fancy theme park pay2win casinos for children.
I think in the next few years the pressure for junk bonds like this in pension funds will just grow as inflation rate moves farther away from bond yields.
thank you for your help :)
I don't see how hedging about development of a particular technology is a bad thing. We have expected CPUs to get faster, but it didn't get there. Some people were presumably hedging against it, and now we've routed around this with multi-core computers.

People might have expected flying cars, yet they didn't come to be. Instead, quick communication has been solved by the Internet.

The world has many ideas, and they can be explored simultaneously, but we also must face the possibility of failure in case we paint ourselves into a corner, like we just did with the global warming. I find broad exploration rather optimistic compared to being single-minded about something happening in the future.
They are surrounded and stranded in a massive cold war bunker.

Assuming they have supplies, I don't expect they will give up soon. But they have no chance of reclaiming Mariupol.
Yep, information recall abilities are definitely a set of learnable skills. There are a few resources and recommendations here: https://libguides.cam.ac.uk/wolfsoncollege/memoryskills

Don't forget that technology can be a useful fallback and/or way to confirm that you remembered details correctly (and you won't, always; it's always possible to improve, though). Good luck!
Yeah, I’ve been that guy too. I agree it isn’t pleasant. Sometimes I feel driven to be that way by the actions of others. Thats when I know its time for me to step back, reassess, apologize if necessary, and try to move forward.

But god damn do other humans make it hard.
Innovation no longer happens at these places. I can't think of the last thing Google did that was all that impressive. The only google products I still use are search, gmail and google maps. That's it. The same as in 2005.

These companies no longer need to innovate to stay relevant. They focus instead on stifling competition, lobbying politicians, marketing, advertising, dark patterns, etc. The good people eventually get shut out and shut down and leave or stop trying to influence change. The bureaucracy wins and eventually the music stops.

> I'm increasingly convinced that a large portion of our problems as a society is our absolute refusal to hold anyone in power accountable for anything.

The problem is power is too concentrated. Companies no longer need to innovate. This isn't just in tech. Everyone wants their assets to grow at others expense society be damned.
Why would a screen reader have any more trouble with it than someone reading it normally? I usually read it as "ay-one-one-why" or "ally", is that how a screen reader would interpret it?
One might argue that if he's specifically following the direct instructions of the ATC, who is a licensed pilot in this case, that the ATC is "the pilot," and his allowing of a non-pilot to push the buttons on his behalf was a necessary deviation to handle the emergency and land the plane.
I guess the first answer is: similar to Durable Object limits (unlimited databases / 50 GB total) since they alluded to those abilities more so than a simple file stored on R2 (only for backups).

The fact that transgender people exist is quite settled from a scientific perspective. Most reasonable platforms will not put up with people asserting that trans people are either mentally ill, clout-chasing, or victims of abuse, in the same way that most reasonable platforms will not put up with arguments that Black people are a criminal race because <insert debunked science here>.

Dissent along those lines, no matter how politely framed, is simply an attempt to launder bigotry into "debate".
