What about Stanford Research Institute???

"Later in the 1970s, Engelbart lost his key engineers to Xerox PARC lab, a lavish and well-funded research center a few miles away. At the head was Alan Kay, 15 years Engelbart’s junior—an upbeat, brilliant guy who knew how to inspire people. The laboratory chief was Engelbart’s former funder from ARPA, Robert Taylor. For Engelbart, networks had always been an inextricable part of his vision. But under Kay’s direction, the engineers created a personal computer, geared toward individual productivity rather than collaboration. Their software included more user-friendly versions of a few of Engelbart’s original ideas, including multiple windows, text with integrated graphics, and the mouse. A cruel joke of the time was that Engelbart’s Augmentation Research Center had been a training program for PARC." [1]

> Yet we have copyright laws and environmental protection laws to protect both.

Yes, but we don't have copyright laws to protect the environment. So harm to the environment is not a copyright argument.

> Because I’m not a machine. I’m contrained by physics, whereas these models are not.

I don't even know what that means.

> But a painting, a book, a song, etc are easy to steal, especially with technology.

The AI does not merely duplicate training samples. That said, effort is also unrelated to copyright.
> It helped that I was clueless about celebrities in the UK.

The main selling point is that its not just celebs that do this show, its captains of industry, scientists, philosophers, and all sorts of people who are vaguely successful in their field.
yeah progress in infrastructure can often cause regress at the upper layer (new infra, new culture, less knowledge, less effort)

that said I believe non linear display like ehlib is probably handled through subtrees/nested-components in the react world
Many retails don’t buy the inventory directly, it’s still owned by the manufacturer/seller. Returns cost money in the operation but the actual product is free to them. Lots of returns end up in the trash too.

While Amazon may pay for the shipping, many low quality products are probably losing money for the seller when returned.
The answer to your objections is literally in the comment I linked, did you read it? One keyword is RE.
Perhaps one could say that the value was adjusted downwards. It wasn't an actual thing that was destroyed - rather, a dynamic equilibrium has changed. "Value was destroyed" has all the wrong connotations - it sounds like something somebody had a moral right to was maliciously, well, destroyed.
Overall share probably doesn't matter. Adding 15% extra demand will certainly influence price.

To quote Bruce Schneier:

> Private blockchains are completely uninteresting. (By this, I mean systems that use the blockchain data structure but don’t have the above three elements.) In general, they have some external limitation on who can interact with the blockchain and its features. These are not anything new; they’re distributed append-only data structures with a list of individuals authorized to add to it. Consensus protocols have been studied in distributed systems for more than 60 years. Append-only data structures have been similarly well covered. They’re blockchains in name only, and—as far as I can tell—the only reason to operate one is to ride on the blockchain hype.

This is war. Billions are still flowing to Russia for natural gas. It would be neigh impossible for Russia to export natural gas to alternative markets. So if you really want to weaken the Russian war effort...

... set an EU-wide tarriff on Russian gas. Subsidise EU energy independence with the proceeds: alternative natural gas sources, green energy production, energy savings, ... And make more structural social corrections to avoid energy poverty.
Have you heard the word 'refugees'?

Western war propaganda is framing refugees to Russia as kidnapped and forcibly held.

What games are above this average?
10k over a long period is very small compared to what one can lose in a casino night, and casinos do exist.

What kind of game was your friend working on? Whales do exist but they are not the bulk of the revenue
And the fact that the poster did well on the full-day follow up at Redmond and was invited to join either of the teams he interviewed with means that he was certainly qualified to pass the on-campus interview.
He cheated more on writing a clickbait title than actually "cheating" on the interview. This is the same thing as when a kid in class thought studying was a way to cheat.
I remember this formula was part of a book called "Formelsammlung" (german for equation-collection) that we were allowed to take to math exams in university in cs. This is a simple know or don't than you have to deduct issue.
This is not cheating. Tech companies are literally looking for candidates who have seen the problem before.

If they were truly testing for engineering skills, the interview would mirror real day to day world more.
It seems that knowing the famous anecdote about Gauss:

Open source has no formal definition. There are tons of different licenses. They can be OSI-approved or not.

Try Northern Ireland :)

Why?

* Anybody from Northern Ireland is entitles to both UK and Irish passports, meaning they can live and work in both the UK and EU

* Booming tech industry, 3 Universities all with a strong focus on tech

* Can trade into both the EU and UK markets

* Great broadband etc

* Lots of VC's/Investment opportunities
Why is that considered a lot? People pay more for e.g sports memorabilia
I think it's fair game. You called ahead of the job fair, which allowed you to prepare.

They were also lazy with their recruiting questions.

If they wanted to select on skills instead of knowledge of interview question gimmicks, they would have asked for a link to your profile showing off your work, and look at it after the fair.

Ask HN: Recommended OAuth scopes for GitHub personal access tokens
So it's that time of the month again and I'm generating a whole new set of personal access tokens for all of my dev machines.

Every time I get to this page(https://imgur.com/a/V9gGI0y) I just feel a sense of dread. It feels like the Github security team is asleep at the wheel when they let UI like this exist. Even the immediately linked documentation isn't immediately actionable (https://docs.github.com/en/developers/apps/building-oauth-apps/scopes-for-oauth-apps).

Ideally, there should be a set of scopes recommended by their security team for different workflows/applications/scenarios... but without that being available from what I can see... I've come here.

Hackernews what are your recommended OAuth scopes for access tokens for different scenarios? What best practices are you following to keep your account secure?
Turkey was actually going through the process of joining the EU. It was Turkey that stopped the process, not the EU.

Besides, Turkish immigrants are very unlikely to cause real issues in the EU. I will concede that they may cause some imaginary problem and upset some people.
This isn't cheating.

This is utilizing your network and preparing for potential questions.

If Microsoft is risking to ask the exact same question to someone, it's their problem.
But that's so weird because even if that's on the resume, any interviewer would be interested in know what the contribution was. Maybe revealing that you only "fixed typos" would do more harm than good?
But this is just the intangible economy at work..
Arrest this man! How dare you practice for an interview? /s

Granted some people practice 100+ questions, you practiced only 1, and it was the right one. Same same.

Lucky indeed, but I wouldn't attribute your success to luck. You were clearly a good enough engineer to receive 2 offers, and good enough to build a career there.

We all have multiple encounters with low-probability scenarios in life. If you have a 10% chance of succeeding at something, and you have 50 attempts, and you only need one success, then your actual chance of succeeding is 99.5% rather than 10% - almost inevitable.
A similar idea worked with my son (who is still in primary school). He found it very difficult to grasp the idea of Git in general and making small PRs like this helped him to warm up to the whole thing over a few days. Every beginner has to start somewhere I suppose.
Don’t worry, it’s worse.

They collect everything, illegally and without any ethics.

Then they’re incompetent as well, so action doesn’t happen when it should.

Instead we get capricious, haphazard enforcement, and a dark future with all of this stored in permanent record to be retrieved using the search tools of 2040 and weaponized later when we later make nuisances of ourselves in response to future legislation.
That’s what getting paid in equity is for. If you burn the company down, your salary declines. Of course at 100k people, your impact is small unless you’re a VP+.
Would the turbines make the rotation decay faster, or would they just put some of the energy of rotation decay that happens anyways on a slightly different path towards heat?
Ittle Dew is similar to 2d zelda. I enjoyed its quirky, meta humor. As it's typical for 2D Zelda, you need to beat enemies, but the violence is very cartoonish.

What do you mean with "live to serve them"? Why would I want them to live to serve me (if that is the other way around)? What does that even mean? I believe the Royals have a greater sense of duty and living in service of the nation than you and I have of living in the service of the monarch, wouldn't you agree?

Are you talking purely symbolically or about what people are actually doing and experiencing in their everyday life?
> The original statement that you had made was: "You can’t tell caste visually.".

Yes, that’s still true. Compare Kerala Dalits and Brahmins[1] or Uttar Pradesh ones[2] or Punjabi Dalits and Tamil Brahmins like I did yesterday[3]. Caste isn’t skin color.

> But your own comment "So does colorism, where lighter skin is preferred. But they’re not the same thing and acting as if they are confuses much, much more than it illuminates." seems to indicate that it is possible, at least in part to determine caste visually

You can’t tell what caste someone is from their skin color. The entire range of Indian skin colors is in every caste. The distributions are almost certainly different but there are Brahmins as dark as any African and Dalits who look like Afghans.

> Hence, 'varna' which you have now acknowledged means 'color' albeit you're claiming a more 'advanced' meaning beyond skin color

At no stage did I use the word advanced. I suggest you reserve quotation marks for quotations as it aids clear communication. I do not speak Sanskrit but I bow to the expertise of those who do that it means a lot more than color, never mind skin color.

> which I'm sorry, but I perceive as an attempt to spin a racist/caste origin story into something more sophisticated.

You may not know this but the Vedas are stories of events that happened 3,000-5,000 years ago. The origins of caste prejudice are not super relevant to its modern particulars because Indians in the same region have overlappping distributions of skin color. We’re not talking Chinese and Egyptian here. More like Austrian and Lombard.

I used to play a MUD thats been around for 30 years and has active playerbase of maybe 1-4k people and there were some players who would pay 20-40k for special wizard made items.
It was run by a non-profit, so all that money went to keep the game running, but yeah, some people put a lot of money on these games.
> 10k over a long period is very small compared to what one can lose in a casino night

that's a very low bar to set...
Thats terrible. What is the alternative here?
I just started playing it after a long break. I remember you used to need to upgrade your cards to challenge level in order to be competitive in challenges but now they give you all cards in challenge mode at the standard level, even cards you haven't found yet

It costs 10 gems to play a challenge and you can buy 500 gems for 5$ so that's 50 challenges, say you get at least 7 games per challenge so 350 games for 5$ where only skill matters. I'd say that's not exploitative.

Of course if you care about your rank and having a Big Number in a silly mobile game then yes you either have to play a lot or pay a lot of money.
I wonder sometimes if the future of office work is something like a Star Trek Holodeck. Most people won't have one at home and will commute to a local remote work office used by people working for various employers.
> I've seen similar comments by several game devs, but at least some of them said that they make most of their money from the kids of the ultra-wealthy.

This seems like naïve speculation to me. Think about the number/scaling of this. It would give them a few months worth of income at best?

The sadder truth is that they're exploiting escapism and maladaptive coping (addiction, gambling) in people who also use escapism to cope/relax. Often times, those same people in desperate need of escapism are there because they struggle in real life, often financially too.

So, the little reprieve they get from gaming negative impacts their physical lives.

Diablo Immortal is a caricature of the depravity most games have become. A few games like Overwatch are not P2W, but even they have lootbox mechanics for cosmetic skins (you get boxes for leveling up and challenges, as you play, though). Blizzard literally can't help themselves.
I'll go out on a limb and say that spending 110k on a video game is considered "a lot" by 100% of all humans, rounded to the closest percent.
Most super rich get super rich by having super rich parents. It doesn't say anything about how they act.
I have seen somewhere in an online shop, but their price was double compared to ECC UDIMM DDR4.

It is better to either wait for the price of ECC DDR5 UDIMM to fall or to buy now a workstation motherboard like the Gigabyte MW34-SP0, which supports the cheaper ECC DDR4 UDIMM.

For a workstation, it is usually better to have at least 64 GB DRAM, than to have less memory, even if it is faster. For example, compiling a large software project in a RAM disk may save much more time than having DDR5 instead of DDR4 would save, so the price difference should be less than 50%, preferably much less, for DDR5 to become attractive.
Predatory?

Casinos shouldn't be regulated too. If nobody is forcing anyone to attend into something (like going to a casino or playing a pay-to-win game) nobody should have the right to change or regulate the inner dynamics.

As long as the game doesn't clearly lie (e.g. telling a lootbox does something that it doesn't) everybody knows what a lootbox is. Playing the game is a voluntary action taken by an individual, just like going to a casino. They are responsible for their own actions, and blocking a certain demographics' (e.g. people in Netherlands) to access to a game/mechanics (e.g. Diablo Immortal + lootboxes) is fundamentally against people's freedom of choosing to play a game or not.

It's their money, they can spend $1m if they want to, on lootboxes.

Would I? Definitely not. But blocking someone who does want to from doing it, whereas it doesn't have negative effects to society (e.g. Doesn't affect anyone but the person themselves) is ridiculous.
They're incredibly popular in east asia in general. It's practically taken over the game markets over there.
Casinos asks for your ID card, and are regulated to protect people banned from gambling (at least it is the case in France)

This should remind us what programming is all about: Take a data set, modify it, present it to the user or write it back to a file or a database.

And we can see why imperative programming is much more simpler than OOP or functional programming.

- That that data!

- Transform the data!

- Take result of transformation and transform further!

- Display the result!

Not:

- Think about an abstraction of the problem

- Define a class which is vaguely near to the problem domain.

- Take the data and press into the object using a constructor.

- Write some methods which fits the object abstraction but not related to the actual problem

- Write a couple of methods to administrate the data inside the object

- Do the same for a second class because after doing the first transformation step you have a different kind of object

- Use a mixin to combine the two classes

- Refactor the code to adhere to Clean Code

- Write a helper class which is actually not an abstraction of anything

- Write test classes to test quality into your code because your codebase became to messy.

- Explain everybody why this approach is superior than just pipelining the data between functions.

- Complain about why the state of the industry is so bad.
Interesting perspective difference; I was referring to protecting the work computer from threats, not the home network from corporate. You must work at happy places…

Apparently you would also be surprised by how common it is to use a home printer, a home wifi access point, etc. and have IoT devices in the network. Corporate firewalls and scanners only protect against unauthorised connections and known threats; zero-day exploits can still be much more effective from a local network.

I just checked. Yup. It’s still being sold as a 930e[0]. It does mention that it’s not being sold by Logitech, in very small text.

Note the ridiculously low price (it has dropped quite a bit, since my experience, last year). I suspect a number of folks are happy with the Chinese version. Caveat emptor. Lots of apps and drivers can’t figure out what the camera is, and forget firmware or driver updates; let alone support.

To be fair, a couple of the 1-star comments are being listed at the top, warning of the scam, but the item has a couple of thousand “five-star” reviews.

Residential neighborhoods don’t have the same peak density. In central business districts every street has shops, in residential ones it wouldn’t be sustainable.
Total money spent on card catalogs went down since 1980. Does that mean value was destroyed?
I'm surprised that atm there is a consensus in the comments saying that it's not cheating. Companies ask interviewers to not reveal the questions they had to other candidates. It's likely that his friend was told not to say that. Overall he clearly had an unfair advantage, and even if legally it wouldn't be the definition of "cheating" it would go against the intent of the interview: which is to evaluate candidates in front of a new problem.

Kudos to the author for being honest about all this. I think it's a real issue and that we should find more solutions to prevent this than candidates signing an NDA.
Imho when doing such interview, questions should not rely on a "trick" and even if they do, candidates should be evaluated on everything else: how they explain the code, how they react to feedbacks, how easily they transcribe what they explain to code. It's not perfect but it helps.

Granted. However, if you mix and match sync with async code in Java, C#. You're going to have a very bad time™. At runtime. Article https://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2015/02/01/what-color-is-...

Predates stable Rust. Rust didn't somehow add virality to async. It was viral from the start.

And using Rust async with Arc/Box/Pin/etc. works more or less like in GC-land.

> I hold that I believe the ecosystem is already strained

Strained? Not really. Async imo is a bit overblown. Most libs I am contributing don't use async at all.

My opinion is that async was rushed. Pin needed for Async was a well-spring of unsoundness issues, probably still is. Async fn in traits is missing. GATs, etc.

Features that would remove some issues mentioned in the article are being worked on. But then people would be it's 2022 and no async in Rust, joke lang amirite.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
That's a misleading, obfuscating way to make the difference. I guess the OP means an OSI-approved licence.

If you write your own licence (not recommended, but some developers and especially corporations do) it could be even fully compliant, but not approved.
Amazing. I somehow thaught that Tux name was a common knowledge - even my kids know it :)
I would not have though to use this formula. The sum of the integers grows as the square of n so if n is anything but small you will overflow and get an erroneous answer.

This interview question has everything bad imo: no practical uses, test knowledge of math formulas (which every math/CS major would have but none of the self learning folks). It’s very easy to stress and fail when given such a test, and even already knowing I would have tried something else because of the overflow.
Children don't have access to a credit card unless you give it to them. If in 2022 you're giving a kid a device where he can make payments without your input then you're responsible for it.

If you're addicted to spending money online irresponsibly I doubt there is any law that will protect you, there's millions of ways to spend money to get gratification online.
That's on the bare metal side, without disagreeing I was mostly thinking about the ~user/programmer side notion of computing. Tiny blocks of near stateless logical operations streamed (so sync or async or threaded .. no difference). But in a way unikernels are also a way to rethink what a system is.
Why do you need my email for that? :)
