Where? I have never seen this happen in 30 years at Apple in software engineering.
If it makes you feel any better my wife has celiac and it gets easier with time. Eventually you get pretty familiar with things and figure out where is good and where isn't. We mostly do GF in our family cause it's easier to just do GF than try and mix and match.

Also I hope you like Mexican food corn tortillas and chips are a life saver.
If at any point in time, you decide that the company is not a good fit for you, you can end the interview by saying: "Thank you for the opportunity, I don't think I'm a good fit for this position"

No need for any further explanation, no need for excuses, just simply pack your stuff calmly and leave.

Other unrelated career advice (after 15+ years of experience):

1. Don't participate in any abusive/toxic behavior (even if all employees are doing it)

2. Document abusive behavior (emails, texts, etc) with screenshots whenever possible (especially if it involves you)

3. Try to quit professionally whenever possible (provide no feedback or very little ad give a notice), in cases where you _know_ you absolutely can't mentally/physically take it anymore, then leave immediately (i.e NEVER put your health in danger, all the legalities, logistics, etc can be dealt with later; even in extreme situations)

4. Never overwork yourself, your compensation has nothing to do with your effort.

5. Don't constantly criticize the code base, especially if you are new, you don't know the history yet and many people have emotional attachment to their code.

6. If you want to play the office politics (for whatever reason, e.g raises, extra vacation time, etc), find out who are the _bigger_ decision makers and make sure they are aware of YOUR contributions. Don't burn the midnight oil, thinking they will care, that's not how it works; they need to constantly hear your name and ideas.

7. Office romance is NOT worth it _most_ of the time; however if you are going to take this route, make arrangements to be able to leave the company if necessary.

8. Don't talk behind other people's backs, don't partake in excessive drinking or become _too_ attached/close to your coworkers (especially with their family lives). Always maintain a healthy boundary, even if you genuinely think some of your coworkers could become your life-long friends.

9. Use spaces instead of tabs.
> My team is actually developing a suite of tools and platform to enable Unreal Engine game developers to deploy their games to HTML5, bypassing walled gardens and 30% fees entirely.

Okay, so your POV makes more sense now. I'm a fan of the web, so I wish you the best in making the web a platform for non-casual gaming.

IMHO, if you view this primarily as a technology problem, you're going to learn that it isn't. Even when the technology prerequisites exist (Safari supports both Wasm and WebGL today), someone will need to solve the problems that app stores solve.
Isn't much to explain. It's the way it is and it conditions how I feel about it.

Normal people think "risk" is you buy a stock and then it get announced some Friday evening after the market closes that the CEO was a crook. It opens on Monday at 7% at what it was worth Friday and it is down from there. That kind of risk revolves around the fear of some distinct event.

Hedge fund people think that "risk" is something like Brownian motion that has an upward bias in terms of return. The whole reason you buy stocks is because you want to get exposed to that "risk" so you get the reward that comes with it. If the stock goes up 3x tomorrow that is "risk" too, particularly if you are shorting it!

I wonder if you could map scroll wheel to arrow keys in dos box.
It seems that a lot of people here think that EA focus on AGI is overblown because they personally think that AI risk is overblown. It's certainly debatable if a human level or greater AI will be created in the next 50-100 years.

However, if you believe that AGI will be created, then you have to admit that societal impacts will be tremendous, the same level as the advent of nukes.

People are pointing out the problems in discrimination that we face with current sub human AI. Imagine AI systems smarter than 90% of humans or smarter than all humans. Wouldn't that make all current problems in AI minuscule if we couldn't control such a program?
Wouldn't be surprised if the new Google Wallet has some sort of messaging built in
A price to salary ratio doesn't make a lot of sense because it ignores interest rates.

At today's interest rates, which are still historically low even though they increased last year, 3x is unusually conservative.

The better rule of thumb is to keep housing expenses under a certain percentage of gross income. 28% and 30% are common number that get mentioned in that context.

Why gross income and not net income? Because two people with the same gross income might have very different tax situations and their net income could be very different. So, of course you also need to consider what percent of your net income your housing costs represent -- these are all just rules of thumb.
Same, I'd hate to see a novice try to land on a narrow 2000' runway hemmed in by tall trees and a "snotty" 7+ kt crosswind component pushing the plane around.

Lucky they were in Florida with working radios and gas in the tank to reach an accommodating runway. None of that should detract from the emergency pilot's excellent handling of the situation though—bravo!

[edit] Apparently there was a significant crosswind:

Even more impressive then!
if TFA means "the forememtioned article", i don't think so. i'm not convinced that the clusters found and the frequencies in those clusters would be the same as what LDA computes with gibbs sampling or the variational calculus method would find. but i must admit it's been a while since i've played with this stuff.

if TFA is some other method, i am unfamiliar and would like to know more.

in my experience, while it's true that it's hard to score and verify these sorts of models, the hierarchical multinomial nature of LDA topic models makes it easy to generate data and then verify behavior in the fitting process by recovering generative model parameters used by the test data generation process. obviously this makes no sense for the bert frontend, but a comparison of the differing backend clustering methods could be interesting.
That, plus the lack of full sensual inputs (G-forces, turbulence, vestibular experiences, the full outside view) makes it quite a bit of a lesser experience than the real thing.

There's a reason you don't need much equipment for a procedural flight simulator, as opposed to one that can replicate actual flight.

I agree, came here just to say this! A lot of writing coming from the "very-online-twitter-person" types is, well, insufferable to put it mildly, filled with inappropriate jokes(or worse, random images or embedded tweets) distracting from the technical content, but this is far more tasteful and enjoyable to read, on top of being technically interesting.
You make it sound it's true but it's misleading, the critics was because apple users were the beta testers. Letting plenty of time for the industry( headphones, etc) and users to adapt for their Android phone
What you are suggesting is "nihilism" would, by people who have not decided to norm bad things, perhaps look a lot more like communalism.
>It doesn't change my opinion, nor my sentiment

"It" being reality?

>If Spotify's recommendation engine wasn't as good as it was, it would not have the users it has

Now that's just confirmation bias + circular logic.

A streaming service can have users regardless of how good its recommendation engine is. YouTube has crappy recommendation (and has had worse for most of the time it existed) but tons of users.

For Pandora and Spotify, merely offering a convenient way to stream music, a free tier, and a big catalog, was enough.

You seem convinced of some bizarro idea that a media/streaming service can only succeed based on its recommendation engine.

Where did you get that from?
smh people in this thread using their own ignorance to hate on EA. There are valid criticisms of EA for sure. But let's not argue against straw people
As someone who beat Pilotwings on the SNES, I think I could fly a plane. But I would probably crash on the landing and make Big Al very sad :(
Only if there is too much leverage and an poor accounting of who owns what

The Federal Reserve bought the shitty mortgage backed securities because they werent that shitty, the banks just had too many of them relative
to the size of their own assets.

Even of subprime mortgages and adjustible apr mortgages only ~7% went into default by 2008-2009

A portfolio of mortgages where 93% are going to pay vastly more interest to you than the home is worth and you still have the home if they really default? Thats a good portfolio

The banks issue at the time was that they were leveraged up 50x, and they didnt even realize they were levered up that much

so a single month of 7% defaulting could bankrupt them

While the fed has an infinite sized portfolio without leverage, and bought all the claims and let them just play out which they have continued to do. Theyre profitable, correctly performing investments.

More transparent accounting fixes the problem with re-collateralized re-securitized assets
Great idea the modular.vimrc!
Gotta implement it soon. It also helps with keeping the file clean and to the point when there's lot of stuff in it
No. This is the hiring manager. They are not just one person. She represents the company Dropbox, and they will be judged for her actions as their ambassador.
the pointer is annoying though
Hell yes. If I were on the search committee, an olympic gold medal would make the candidate very interesting. It tells you you’re probably dealing with an extraordinary individual.
People with and without the disposable income blow $300 an hour on all kinds of stuff.

Unless you have never spent $300 on something, i'm absolutely sure you've spent $300 on something that median family would call a waste too.

But I can't figure out what your point is. Its a waste to call out these sites? Lawyers are too expensive? The lower classes don't make enough? Don't give advice if it doesn't apply to %100 of people?
No one assumes everyone has a lawyer. The only assumption like that that's been mentioned is you thinking everyone has a GP.
Socket lands $4.6M to audit and catch malicious open source code
Yes, to be clear I'm not saying that anyone would be able to do this, just keeping cool enough to do anything decent (including talking on the radio) was already a huge achievement.

My point was just that this is feasible a lot of the time with some good radio help .

Car companies do have press events every year for their yearly product updates, it's just that everyone who doesn't care just doesn't pay attention.
> Copypasta tends to accumulate minor differences and figuring out if those minor differences matters can become very time consuming.

This is an almost breathtaking documentation site.
>I think I should have politely terminated the interview myself

I probably wouldn’t have had the guys to do this myself either, but I think this would have been the right thing to do. Like others have said, they gave you important information about how the company (does not) deal with assholes.
Pretend to be friendly until the interview's over.

Never burn your bridges. Even rude asshole bridges. You don't know if maybe that guy just got a call that his kid has cancer after working an 80 hour week. You don't know if maybe that guy will be hired at your next job. You don't know if he might bad-mouth you to other employers for fun. And you don't know if maybe they're waiting for one more reason to fire his ass. There is no benefit to walking out early, so just wait it out, and then politely inform them you don't think the position is a good fit for you.
Ask HN: What's the Best React Library?
and why do you think that?
This is a very common argument, but I'm still waiting for the link to that and...anything else.

If we think it causes cancer (*and have some evidence) then sure, but if it's just like ' hey this stuff is here' then I will continue to be more afraid of 'ecological collapse.'

Tesla Comparison: Old Intel Atom GPU vs. the New AMD Ryzen APU
Interacting with a touch screen that may try to distract you is pretty obviously different from touching the physical controls of the car. Plus, the phone is telling you "Interact with me now!" With the radio and climate controls you are free to change them at your convenience.

Finally, I didn't say it was "some crazy dangerous thing". You should mentally flag times when you are writing a reply and have to invent new, extreme, and non-representative language to characterize the position you are replying to. Likely, those will be times when, instead of actually replying, you are just babbling to no purpose. That said - taking your attention off of driving to interact with your phone is certainly sub-optimal from a safety point of view.
This is fascinating. I've always loved the idea of a .midi melody being able to be mapped to a "vocal" track and transformed accordingly—akin to Autotune The News, but with AI/ML instead of by-hand.

In a sense, the lyrics could be spoken and then applied to the .midi melody. The result would sound similar to the SoundCloud vocal OP link, but with "words".
Current air traffic consists of a lot of extremely unremarkable great landings then :)
Using Google is the expected real world situation no? I think being able to figure something out you don't know is better than demonstrating something you know perfectly. You'll find out much more about someone if they can do this rather than asking them mundane syntax questions or if they pre-learned how to reverse a binary tree.
Having dealt with burnout in the past, a mistake I wouldn't make again is immediately quitting. If your company burned you out, they should make you whole again; you shouldn't be paying for therapy out of your own pocket. COBRA is an absolute disaster; if the insurance company ever actually approves you, you eat through your runway too quickly. It's like paying for a second apartment!

How to actually execute this, I'm not completely sure. You don't want to ramp down to the "performance improvement plan" level, because that will just ruin your mental health. If you can ramp down from "strongly exceeds" to "meets expectations" maybe that will help, but if burned out it's probably too late for something like that.

I'm not sure that medical leave is that helpful. I did this once, but was diagnosed with depression when the real problem was that I didn't have a good relationship with my manager. (The straw that broke the camel's back in that case was that I was on vacation the first few days after medical leave, the HR system lost the vacation, and HR started calling my immediate family with the implication that I was presumed dead. Nope, just in Yellowstone without good cell service. I didn't go back to work after that debacle.)

The second time I was burned out, I knew there was no way the company could help me (tiny startup, and the CEO was burning me out), so I just instantly quit. I took about a year off and that was great, I totally recovered. But it was very expensive. It annoys me that companies know they're burning out their employees, and do absolutely nothing to help. So much is lost when people leave. "Take 3 months off" is totally normal if you have a kid, for both parents now; we should do the same for burnout. "I didn't have a kid but I'm going through some shit." leave.

Edit: also, sorry for making this comment about me. I read the entire article and it just frustrates me to no end. You did such a good job making a great spec; the foundation for a better web for billions of people, and the foundation for many interesting startups. All while single-handedly being the glue needed to keep a challenging project making progress. That's truly amazing. Google owes you nothing short of a parade in your honor and a promotion :) Instead, you're left footing the bill to recover from the brain damage caused by continuous stress. I'm so sorry you had to go through this, and thank you for writing this up. It's something we all face in this industry, and speaking up is going to help a lot of people.
Going overseas also carries risk. It could be something as irritating as just cultural or language friction or as bad as a civil disturbance or war breaking out.

Never mind just the quality of workers available for the price you have set as the threshold.
Yes, I'm a bit of a troll, but honestly, when it's done in a healthy way, it improves the system by providing measured resistance.

She's a racist and she represents the company as their hiring manager. They read her tweets and approve of them, and are thus liable for her actions.

These are not her personal opinions - she states that they form the basis of her choices re who gets hired.
I believe software engineers should be getting residuals from the products they help build. Like the way writers and actors get residuals for shows and movies they have worked on and are not a part of anymore. The company that owns that show or movie is still making money from licensing that and the actors and writers helped make that happen. Same with developers. Long after you leave a company that software product you helped create is still making money for its owner. Yes the structure would have to be hashed out. Ground floor developers would get more than maintainers. After some time OG creators would get less and the revisionists would get more. But at least developers could live off that money to take sabbaticals and not get burned out.
I felt this way after leaving an absurdly toxic place[0]. Anything felt more productive. Even lifting weight felt like a torrent of meaning. But I'm not sure this freedom lasts on your own. It seems reactionary after being pressured into something that hurt you. After 1 month where I did 3h of sport daily and read books, my motivation crashed. Be prepared in case that happens. Find people with better view on life, better sense of workplace sanity. This (IMO) is better long term. Unless you manage to monetize your standalone problem solving skills (freelancing might be a good option for you too).

Take care.

[0] I had a string of bad luck regarding jobs, and I hated the whole work concept, but I got lucky and found a new place which is peaceful and interesting enough. Maybe you can find something like that.
Sheesh. Some of the best things I ever did involved the risk of getting hurt. And yes, I guess I could see someone very left-leaning hating on an Eagle Scout but it would still probably be rare thankfully.
Man that website is full of awful, awful content

I’m a security person. I fully support 2fa. I’ve implemented it dozens of times for companies where I work, companies I’ve owned, clients I’ve worked for.

The pop-up you’re talking about disgusts me. Not just because it’s terrible but because it colors a good thing.

If you can’t say “no” you didn’t choose. Action taken without choice is forced.

Forcing your user to do what you want is a display of disgust.

Not the way to delight your user. That’s not a way to partner with a user to increase security.

Note to google product people. STOP DOING THAT.

Note to other product people. Don’t ever do that.
Ah yes, the canoeing merit badge. Accomplished by yours truly and one other scout because I found an underwater stump in the Sewanee river and told him about it. LOL.
My gut reaction was also “what kind of outdated rule is this?” until I realized that I accidentally followed the 3x rule almost to the dollar in buying my house. And I have to say, I feel extremely comfortable with the results, so I would recommend it.
This whole campaign is stupid. Textiles make like (googles fervently) .8% (probably) to 5% (probably not) of all oil consumption. And this doesn't end up in the atmosphere, it's solidified.

The highlight of this video:

> TNF has PROPANE fireplaces!!!!

It literally took more energy to stream this video on the internet than it did to heat a lounge with propane. Calm down now there buddy.

> but OCEAN PLASTICS!!!!

Ok, this is a good one. First, how often are you washing your fancy TNF jacket? Probably once a year, because you don't want to ruin the water proofing treatment.

The EPA, when they're not busy buying $5k office chairs, is actually doing good work updating requirements for Wastewater Treatment plant guidelines to tackle microplastics, but this again, misses major sources.

Actually looking at the quoted sources for most of the graphs only count developed countries. They miss third world areas where rivers are used for trash disposal.

This is an enormous amount of effort targeting a minor abuse of plastics. To the above poster's point: if anything, they should be ragging on them to make their products repairable.

I still subscribe to "buy once, buy quality", which is why I don't own anything TNF. I'm on my second zipper on my 5 year old Columbia, which I bought specifically because it looked like it could be easily replaced.
The core console emulator for Windows is a part of this too: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/tree/main/src/host

Oh please, that's like saying "you either become rich or kill yourself". Ridiculous.

This kind of shit pops up everywhere, not only the EU. I have no idea what tf is driving it, probably the same thing that turned many countries into dictatorships.

Human nature, really, but how these assholes always get into power is a mystery to me.

> iPhone 13 and Pixel 6

I think the fact that they are in those high numbers already shows that they "stopped pretending like it is going to be an exciting brand new product every single year". The numbering there is pretty straightforward compared to e.g. the Macbook namings, or the convoluted naming of other brands with stacked variation signifiers, like the "Xiaomi 11 lite 5G NE".
Apple writes their own audio drivers for very specific hardware is how it works. It's very annoying, because there's so many amazing music apps that just couldn't work on Android. I just want a headphone jack or a simple way to use wired headphones.
That varies based on the certification rules. My older 182 only had to have the operating limitations and weight and balance info (“O+W” in ARROW), but they did not have to be original.

My later year A36, I believe needs the original AFM/POH. (In any case, I do carry it.)

If you didn’t know how to fly, you couldn’t read enough of the book to figure it out before the aircraft departed controlled flight (if not on at least a wing-leveler autopilot).
I want to add a user ÇA but only for a certain sites. If I’m developing on blah.com, I’m happy to add a root certificate, but I want to choose what sites (blah.com, blah.de, etc) I trust that very to accept, I don’t want it doing bank.com because I don’t trust my own CA management to be infallible.

Name constraints are poorly supported, and even then that again relies on me creating the root cert correctly. Browsers seem to give me the user the choice of either accepting the cert fully or not accepting it, not giving me the control. Why is that.
