> However, learning leet code, then applying it in an interview shows you have the aptitude to learn quickly.

That’s not why they were introduced. Leetcode using tools like hackerrank were introduced because college GPAs were very bad indicators of programming proficiency and a lot of people also did not have a CS degree.

The questions weren’t this bad before.

And these competitive programmers aren’t necessarily fast at learning things either.
I think that this repo was created by a core PG dev.

Experience depends on how many humans are under you. If you're a CEO with 0 full time directs, you would have a difficult time moving into an EM role.
That's not how leverage works.

If you're long on an asset and are not lending it out, neither short selling nor leverage can hurt you with a fully backed stablecoin – you can always just go to its issuer and redeem it.

As an analogy, consider owning shares of some publicly traded corporation. No matter what happens on the stock market, this doesn't impact your ownership of the actual, physicaly corporation, which entitles you to dividend payments, a proportional share of its assets when liquidated etc.
No you have to switch trains at least once.

Also the travel takes ~4h15m (RE->RE) instead of ~1h50m (ICE).

If your traveling at a time where the RE is not over crowded and you can spend the time well it's okay. If not, especially if the train is overcrowded in parts of the travel and it's really hot it's shit.
How Does Foam Rolling Work? (2013)
Tether does offer redemption, but the minimum amount you can redeem is 100,000 USDT, and there is a fee that ranges from 0.1% to 1% depending on the size of the redemption:

So if a well-capitalized arbitrageur can buy a million USDT at a price less than 0.999, they can redeem them for a profit, as long as Tether keeps honoring redemptions.
Is there any possible way that a test that is not entirely reliable can be used for screening? Like, couldn't they have a radiologist look at the photo to confirm the result?
I've been to jail for awhile, it really is like this. On top of that, you are told almost nothing about how to make bail, what's going on, etc, and also congratulations, now everyone looks down on you even if you are proven innocent, especially the people inside the system (judges, lawyers, etc.)

we should all be aware of how much plastic we consume, and work toward consuming less of it, and lower the impact of what plastic we cannot avoid.
I don't mean this negatively at all but I am daydreaming of a time machine and taking this decision back to 1995 and tripping over all the technology fads we might have been spared. Good. This is what makes it worth having children for.
They should have made that clear since the complaint reads as being largely about the 3/5 part.
Ask HN: Is 32 too late to get out of SAP ABAP consulting?
Hi, my wife is an amazing developer who loves programming and graduated from a well recognised university in Computer Science. She however got stuck as an SAP ABAP consultant because she was placed in Deloitte from college. She spent the last 10 years working as a sincere employee and only switched companies once. As a result her current compensation is peanuts in comparison to most of her classmates who went on to work at FAANGs or even regular startups. I've been trying to get her to switch to literally any other kind of programming, whether it's web development or game development because the job market is not artificially capped and controlled by the consulting companies. SAP ABAP consultants are a dime a dozen in India, they are severely underpaid with respect to developers who work with languages that are open and free to use. Is it too late for her to just leetcode and join a startup or FAANGs? What should she put on her resume, since it's all exclusively ABAP experience? She's also an excellent manager/team lead however because the consulting world is pretty much driven by years of experience and not skill, she had never been able to find an engineering management role within consulting. Any feedback/advice is greatly appreciated.
> The problem isn't getting loans on one's crops. It's transferring the price risk to someone else. When a farmer plants, they want a guaranteed profit. Loans don't address that problem. Futures do. (It's why they were invented, in the 17th century, by the Dutch and Japanese.)

The problem is excess credit available to financial firms engaging in leveraged speculation and financial services investment, resulting in financial sector employment and compensation that is super-proportionate to any real savings generated for non-financial producers. This leverage is enhanced by the lack of free (zero-fee) public alternative for basic banking services. It is not necessary for public banks providing basic banking services to guarantee profits for farmers. Provide savings, transfers, and liquidity loans at present values at what an option to sell existing previously planted crops would be worth might be sufficient to reduce deposits held by banks engaging in leveraged speculation. Providing basic banking as a public utility is the middle way the parent commenter advocated because it does not require banning anything.

> ETH will soon move from PoW to PoS (let's not debate the timeline or if it is a good idea). This will put about 32 million GPUs worth of compute and millions of CPUs searching for something else to do (or just flood the market with used equipment).

Crypto markets crashing together could do this, but ETH's switch isn't going to do much for old cards.

Checking https://whattomine.com/ shows that ETH mining isn't even in the top 5 most profitable things to mine with a 1080Ti right now. The miners looking to squeeze every bit of profitability out of old hardware switched away from ETH a long time ago.
It's not worth implementing for MacOS because it woulnd't increase the overall folding rate very much given the relative weakness of the Mac GPUs compared to the existing f@h fleet.
To the founders of mito, regarding the mito GPL license:

What is your take on that regarding usage inside cloud provider's notebooks like AWS, GCP, Azure, Databricks?

Is it allowed or not allowed by the license? And who should/can control the usage since users can install any kind of Python library in those environments.

And, separately from the maybe ambiguous legal answer: What is your personal intention with the license?

Disclosure: I am employed by Databricks.
I'm not worried. If things are that different, the rest of the economy will be too. The job will also evolve over time, like any other profession that changes with new technology.

It's our job (as radiologists and engineers) to shape that in a way that benefits patients.

> This is a known limitation of radar based active cruise control systems, and is not specific to Tesla autopilot.

Which makes it all the more galling and reprehensible.

> makes it clear that your concern isn't really with the engineering limitations and safety implications of this product.

I was concerned about engineering in 2015 when the first decapitation happened. My present screed against Tesla is because they haven't fixed the problem in the intervening 7 years to the point where a second person was decapitated. That shows me the problem is not engineering but organizational. It makes no sense to talk about engineering issues when Tesla does not promote a culture of safety. Engineers are not in control there, hype men are.

The number of accidental decapitations your product gets to make is 1 and that's arguable. The second decapitation is criminal negligence.

And yes, I am incensed by this because as a roboticist, I think it's a travesty that Tesla has taken the industry in this direction.
I've worked for exactly one startup on a devops team of three. The coders next door to us were mostly fresh out of university and most of them thought they were the cat's pajamas. They worked for a fairly crusty former military cyber dude who had likely forgotten more about programming then they would ever know. Military dude told us that code checks were an eye-opener for these guys. There's boot camps, university, and then the real world. The real world is often not what these kids think it is. Same kids were shocked when I told them the company ran the back end on Bash and Python. They were incredulous we weren't using Golang, Haskell, or some other flavor-of-the-month language. I told them to go ask what runs their bank. None of them had the faintest idea it was COBOL. The one COBOL programmer I know is in his 60s, already retired and comes out as needed for the princely sum of $200/hour every couple of months for contract work. Beer money as he calls it. Guy retired a millionaire from COBOL but you'd never know it looking at his modest house and hatchback car.
> Your entire argument here seems to require patients to be rational agents.

Yes, my argument does rely on patients being rational agents.

> They aren't.

That may be true, but it's certainly paternalistic (in the formal, definitional sense) to act as if they are not rational agents and withhold information/reduce autonomy. This is a case of pure paternalism (again, in the formal philosophical sense).

Different ethical systems, of course, make different judgements on whether this behavior is moral. It's also up for debate whether this is a desirable feature of the medical system.
Usually when I can't be bothered to remind myself the syntax for find, my go to these days is `echo **/*pattern*`. Of course, this is mainly just for small searches.
Interesting ideas. It would absolutely kill the profit margin of AWS and Azure though. Who's that guy that said "Your margin is my opportunity"?
No, there is no "probably." Other, more complete and unbiased reporting makes it clear that she while she had lab space she was not in charge of her own lab at Whitehead, and she left after only a year due to her experience with Sabatini.
Somehow that didn't occur to me. It's much cheaper than a train, but it's also a bit slower than a car and it costs roughly as much as the fuel (no wear and tear though). So a bit cheaper overall.

Buuut... I was on a school trip to the UK once where I spent 13 hours on a bus and I remember hating every second of it. Well, we'll consider it :)
Huh? You can absolutely own a car and not have a license.
And I had one job candidate tell me she had "Linux 7.3" installed, where she meant Redhat 7.3.

And so many years later, I am yet to see Linux 6.
Let's take that to be true, as-before — Perhaps "to serve the creative spirit" of the coder is not what most software development should be about.

Perhaps most software development should be about effectiveness or reliability or …

The question is, why would you hold tether if there is even a 1% chance of collapse?

Remember, there is literally no upside, it's not as if USDT will go to the moon.

So why not dump it for the time being in either Bitcoin or USD?
Make everything in-process otherwise you sold the main benefit of desktop.

The architecture for the “backend” isn’t different from a web or other app, the difference being that you don’t need to expose a api/rpc surface of any kind that isn’t regular methods.

Set up some good interfaces and/or view models. This will depend heavily on which front end. An imgui app will have very different preferences from a databound ui and so on. Very hard to make recommendations about this part without knowing what frameworks will be used.

But don’t pretend a desktop app is a web app.
The issue is that in rem jurisdiction was originally intended and justified for cases where the owner of the property was unknown or beyond the reach of the law (say overseas.) The early cases were things like an overseas shipper not paying proper import taxes. For cases like this, in rem seems reasonable to me.

Where things went off the rails is when they started applying this to cases where the owner of the property was known, and that owner should have their normal fourth amendment rights.
And they're right. They never (formally, explicitly) consented to the rules. But therefore... what?

They have three options. One, they can choose to live and operate under those rules. Two, they can work within the system to change the rules. Or three, they can go somewhere that has rules more to their liking. This isn't a prison; they can leave any time they choose. One could even argue that by staying in the country, they are (informally, implicitly) consenting to be governed by its rules.

But instead, they try a fourth alternative: Stay, but pretend that the rules don't apply to them because of laughably bogus legal theories. That doesn't work, no matter how many new legal theories they try, and no matter how much bogus logic and philosophizing they throw at it.

We've got a lot of non-sov-cit people who don't consent to the rules. We call them "criminals".
Yup, we’re on the same page on both counts.
That’s my point, except stronger, because number of people under you is not sufficient. If you’ve never written a line of assembly, you will have problems managing a compiler backend team for example.
I said asian, children of asian immigrants. Both aspects, culture and recent immigration, are factors. That isn't all Asians ... whatever definition of "asian" you mean by that.
> Since it's not obvious that Bob has actually committed a crime, shouldn't there be some mechanism to allow the obvious profits of crime to be confiscated without having to convict Bob? A lot of reasonable people think the answer to that is "yes";

No, those people are absolutely not reasonable! Those people want a magic world where we have crystal balls that tell us exactly who's innocent and guilty. That would certainly be nice, but that's not the world we live in.

It's frustrating when the guilty go free because of the rules we have in place to protect the innocent; but those rules didn't come out of nowhere. They are the result of the hard-won experience of thousands of innocent people being punished. If you remove them then innocent people will be punished again.
This is why Legalese was invented. They have to be as explicit as possible to avoid any possible interpretation of what was written other than what was actually meant. A legal document with any phrasing that is "subject to interpretation" will eventually be interpreted in a way the origin author did not intend.

"Unreasonable" is a highly subjective term and should not exist in legal documents.
Ahh yes, why would we want to give poor people a potential route to improve their health? it would definitely be more ethical to let them die.
I'm not disputing that what we do as an industry can't be improved. I'm primarily against the idea that our profession is unique, and people should take us at face value when we claim expertise. Validation by employers is looked at as an undue burden. We have perks in this industry: For the most part no one cares about your education background and often not even your experience as long as you pass the interview. It's hard to have both those perks, and expect some of these hoops to disappear.

Should the hoops be a take home assignment? White boarding? Pair programming? A new governing body that offers a license? Not sure, but something will exist, and your anxiety and need to prepare likely won't disappear.
One of my favorite (although also sad) was the time the U.S. Government sued a bunch of shark fins: United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins.
I think its also good to note that a lot of the other automakers were previously very conservative about their marketing claims and were getting more aggressive in response to Tesla's overtly aggressive claims. I'm sure a lot of execs/boards were a bit envious of the Tesla PE multiple that Tesla was getting based on the overly aggressive marketing claims.
I work at a mid-large tech company ~5k engineers.

> You cannot write things that scale without solid knowledge and intuition in designing and analyzing algorithms, something that can be learned and furthered through experience.

The point is not whether people need to learn algorithms, they of course need to, but that Leetcode questions seem to test people’s ability to solve riddles more than their ability to design algorithms
Do you think someone should need to program if they want to understand the problem domain?
dang was not a thought in my mind when I replied, so if there's any inference to dang by you in my comment, it is solely within your reading of the comment.

however, out of curiosity, what in my comment makes you think that?
> That may be true, but it's certainly paternalistic (in the formal, definitional sense) to act as if they are not rational agents and withhold information. This is a case of pure paternalism (again, in the formal philosophical sense).

Call it whatever you want. Idealizing patients as rational agents instead of considering how they are in reality results in worse outcomes. If your goal is to actually help people, you should base your arguments on how things are in reality instead of some idealized dream world.
"so assuming larger factories would result from less regulation isn't in evidence."
there's no evidence that less regulation will make markets more competitive either. but, economy of scale is a pretty well know market phenomenon.

but, I'm going to look into your argument. Is government regulation a major contributing factor to market consolidation.
You're misinterpreting it. CALEA requires that service providers have the capability to do interceptions when requested by law enforcement. It has absolutely nothing to do with end-user devices.
bamboolib co-founder here:

It's correct that bamboolib is (still) closed-source (which might be subject to change but I don't make promises).

It's also correct that customers can extend the bamboolib UI in various ways via plugins that they can author themselves. That empowers them to build bamboolib into the kind of tool that they want.

Also, all the code is always exported and thus, there is at least no "code lockin".

Regarding being "at their mercy", I can say that there are many customers who are happy by the service that we provide.
Surprised this didn't get more tracking. This in particular seems like a really good startup idea:

> cloud computing will require intermediation, provided by systems we call intercloud brokers, so that individual customers do not have to make choices about which clouds to use for which workloads, but can instead rely on brokers to optimize their desired criteria (e.g., price, performance, and/or execution location).

Perhaps this is the direction startups like 'Mighty' are taking.
I actually really appreciated the comment above. Downvote it if you don't like it. If it gets enough downvotes because the community hates it, then it'll go away.

>Humans crash all the time.

While minor accidents are obviously much more common, in the US, there's approximately one fatality per 100 million miles driven. And that's across all drivers across all cars including old clunkers in poor mechanical condition and lacking modern safety systems.
Not at all a fan of apps that run a webserver locally and interface through a browser. Will make a rare exception, but I wouldn't use one long term. Not exactly what you are asking, but similar.

I do like the mature pattern of having a number of CLI programs that can be run, and an additional GUI that can run them as well, for non-expert or infrequent users. Have a log that shows what commands are called by the GUI. This gives powerful automation potential for free. Look at Handbrake GUI wrappers for technical inspiration, if not UX design.

Then you can do whatever IPC you like, can be as simple as reading from stdin/out or maybe Unix sockets before resorting to TCP/IP. If work has to be done outside of the user session, write a service/systemd module definition with one of the CLIs.

Re: Data, as others mentioned sqlite can stretch a lot farther than was commonly believed until a short while ago. Try before resorting to servers.

> But, as it was expressed to me in a different thread, it's a sacrifice we all need to make to help Musk build the perfect software platform and advance our society.

Yeah I can't help but cringe at this. Safety is hard, and you don't get safe systems without trying very hard and deliberately to make them. That's a fact of life and engineering. Trying hard to make safe systems does not look like deploying 2 ton automobiles that are critically blind in the very arena in which they are expected to operate. That's called reckless endangerment in my book.
QuitEvernote: No more straight-to-my-face pop-ups
I really enjoyed Evernote for the longest time with their legacy app. It's easy to use, intuitive, and most importantly does not feel clunky.

The new Evernote is the exact opposite, it's slow, buggy and most annoyingly, its way-too-frequent update pop-ups goes straight to my face and interferes with whatever that I'm working on at the moment. This is not something new to complain but I think a revolt to quit Evernote should be started since they apparently have been ignoring us!

Let's quite Evernote for good, whatever cost it may be, no more straight-to-my-face pop-ups.
