The conductor sometimes announces it and I’ve never heard it exceed mid 80s. I also have a phone and can look how fast I’m traveling myself. I’ve never personally experienced the speeds claimed by that video on Acela.

The Acela schedules for nyc-dc last week were pretty damning. Shaving 30 minutes (at best!) from a 3 hour makes-every-stop trip clearly doesn’t mean significant high speed travel.

At earlier stages of my life I was a regular traveler on tgv/Thales/Eurostar, ICE, and Shinkansen. I know what a high speed train feels like.
They will probably get a special treatment from Github and Github's code will get an unnecessary `if` clause for the special cases (right now probably only the epic one).

You absolutely should blame Flyserver. They allow bots to run, and they don't do anything about it. There are too many network operators like this.

Imagine if any networks where constant and ongoing illegal activity happens, and the network operators do nothing, eventually result in those networks being taken away. Things would change drastically.
During the industrial revolution, a lot of propaganda and manipulation techniques were used to get women into wage slavery. While it is a good option to have women who can help out, it is not a necessity.
Wouldn't want some jagoff putting me to sleep as he charges his cell phone off my literal back, no thanks, its just poor idea that turns a person into a freakshow of unintended consequences.
After reading it, my suspicion was confirmed. Yet another mab. Very powerful, but expensive to scale and synthesise. I guess poor people will have to just suck it up and die. We don't have the tech yet to make these cost effective. Big pharma loves this natural barrier of entry though.

Also, don't expect this stuff to be available anytime soon. FDA process is pretty slow, and sometimes political. Maybe if it were effective against Sars-Cov-2, FDA would be willing again to rush it though the door. Still can't wrap my head around how stuff like Molnupiravir made the cut. They just don't have any shame.
Lyft does the same thing. I need the normal notifications ("Your driver will arrive in 2 minutes") but every few weeks they send me a promotional notification ("Rides are 20% off on Labor Day!") randomly.
Popular? Most of us hate it with a passion. Smartphones are the only reason anyone's making vertical video and only then because they're too lazy/dumb to rotate their device 90 degrees.
Please no. Publicly trading companies creates one of the worst incentives for poor long-term business decisions. ARM is the kind of company that we can't as a society afford to become short-term profit oriented.
Now that I think about it I bet you could attach pdb to a process running the python interpreter and find your way to the right level of abstraction. Does not sound practical though
Yours or mine? :) I mean GPT is clever enough that anything might fall under suspicion. But the one I was referring to just didn't seem to have any truth to it and not even much internal coherence beyond contrarianism.
They are certainly growing. But not much profits in many cases. The real question is can they generate a lot of cash once they are out of hyper growth mode? Or will they just never generate much cash flow ever?
The serendipitous knowledge of the question isn’t the cheating. The cheating is the deception in the interview that this is a question being encountered for the first time.

It’s cheating because it’s the type of unethical behavior you wouldn’t want in a colleague: pretending that they are brilliantly generating insights on the spot that they have actually researched previously.

I don’t think it’s an unforgivable sin, particularly for someone new to interviewing. But as a candidate, I’ve considered it appropriate to make it clear to my interviewer what my level of experience with the question was before diving in. And as an interviewer, I’ve always looked positively on candidates who have done the same
This is an outstanding suggestion. Rife for abuse, but no more abuse than anything else.
Eh, I am not convinced by your arguments. Technology has improved our lives and relieves us from drugery of life. But there are people out there that want Humans to suffer (Mother Teresa, et. al.) and it is a fundamentalist view that cannot be challenged through logic, reason and objectivity. The only way to defeat neo-luddism is to double down on technological progress.

It is fundamentally anti-Human in every way. Talk to a Cancer survivor sometime and ask them about technology.

I don't think there's any way to access iOS notifications outside the device. If the notifications you care about are also available via email you can disable the official app's notifications and use email rules to redirect specific email notifications to something like Pushover, essentially rolling your own push notifications where you can use rules to control what gets through.
I deleted my LinkedIn account many years ago because of unwanted notifications and an inability to disable them.

I haven't missed it.
Even ignoring the fact that human euthanasia is illegal in most of the US, it's rarely that easy. Both of my paternal grandparents lived into their 90s but suffered from mental decline (different forms of dementia) and died as shells of their former selves. If you could have spoke to either of them at the end of their lives but with their full mental capacity, I suspect they would have said that they'd have preferred to die earlier rather than live through that decline... but in reality by the time anyone understood how severe their mental decline would become they were already well past the point that they could have consented to euthanasia.

In theory you could presumably have some kind of system where a person of sound mind could that said, in effect, "if my condition declines beyond _____ then I want to end it," but doing so would be an incredibly touchy subject even if euthanasia was legalized. Unfortunately there is a very real potential for such a directive to by abused by people motivated by greed (gimmie that inheritance) or who simply don't want to deal with an aging relative who needs more help but hasn't reached the point where their euthanasia directive should be triggered.
Never understood this employer fixation on unbroken careers.

A career break may happen to anyone by infinite reasons beyond motherhood. Most people have such career-pausing or career-delaying events (health issues, depression, fatherhood, taking care of an elderly relative), most conceal it, motherhood just happens not to be concealable.

And things don't change as fast. Not even in IT. And even if changed, legacy is always there, begging for someone to take care of it instead of going to the newest shiny thing.

People out of the market need some warm-up time? Yes, they do. Even machines need to warm-up, dammit.

What people should understand, is that the economy turns because there are mothers, fathers, and kids. I would be retired at 35 if didn't marry and hadn't a kid. Once upon a time I was buying a car, the saleswoman was worried about her job because of her pregnancy. I said "I am buying a new car because of the kid. No pregnant women, no car sales." (If I were single or divorced, would have a couple vintage cars.)
Exactly. Consider adding a link to your LinkedIn profile or your CV on your Medium post so folks that are looking to help (referrals, hiring managers, recruiters) can review your skills and experience.
Reddit Is the King of Bad Timing
Yeah this has annoyed me for years. They have notifications for literally anything. I keep disabling notification types on LinkedIn and they just keep making new ones up
You could always leave a nice honest review on the app store; that lets you be explicit and provides a clear signal.
The US has been “the most armed” pretty much for its whole history. The fraction of households that own guns has been going down for decades, to the point where today it’s similar to where France was in the 1970s and 1980s. Yet school shootings are pretty much a phenomenon that began in the 1990s with the kids of boomers entering high school.

> "They're just told that the prisons they think are "computing" (Windows/Apple/Android) are the natural state of things."

Step 1, use diminutive gatekeeping scare quotes to imply that Windows and Apple users are not doing /real/ computing.

Step 2, use flamebait language where a house you got without paying is "freedom" but a listed building you bought from someone else is "a prison".

Step 3, make up some fantasy about people being told "the natural state of things".

Step 4, make sure to look down on average people with their lacking awareness, compared to you, an intellectual with your posturing understanding of philosophical underpinnings.

Thanks! Will try it out.
Of those listed I've only played Hearthstone and Clash Royale. I reached top rank in Clash Royale, and I believe I only spent 5 dollars on it to get a neat looking board to play on - so I don't think they generate quite the ill-will that a legendary PC competitive game developer like Blizzard generates when they produce something much worse than most existing (at least in the west) mobile free to play games.

My point isn't that these sorts of games aren't profitable - it's that they should have spun up a new studio with a new name instead of lighting the good will of a 25+ year IP that's held so dearly on fire.
Was this a situation in which you were asking the candidate while everybody else either already knew the answer and was listening to the candidate think?

Or was it more like everybody was discussing (and explicitly or implicitly through discussion) admitting that they don't necessarily know the answer (while assumedly is an engineer in good standing on the team), and the group is working together to solve it?

Because both situations seem equally plausible based on what you wrote, and if it's the first one then I agree with your detractors below that it's messed up. If it's the second situation then I would have loved it and been excited to join your team.

It's very possible that the ambiguity of the situation is why there's such variance in reactions.
All the floppy drives I've ever seen had a little mechanical arm attached to a microswitch that detected the presence or absence of the write protect notch. VHS cassettes worked similarly.

Again, I never said "blockchain is here to stay"-- just distributed ledgers. And, yes, distributed ledgers have existed forever, but their use by market participants at arm's length is new, as are many new tools we can use to build useful distributed ledgers (including blockchains!).

Reality is the real dream assassin here. LOL!

Maybe if we tweaked the gene expression so that it only affects body hairs, effectively turning each hair into a wind-powered generator. The individual contributions might be small but cumulatively may be more significant.

It would be one way to kill the whole barber, hair stylist, and Brazilian wax businesses and taking it further, it would also potentially affect all clothing manufacturers globally by encouraging full nudity which might remove body-shaming issues by promoting health and fitness and better diet choices.

Tattoos become a simple way to set yourself apart and advertisers buy skin billboard space so individuals can monetize their derrieres.

Gillette, Schick, Dollar Shave Club all fade into obscurity or get marginalized as tools only useful for pre-surgery shaves.

I have turned off all notifications, no sound on my phone either. If I happen to look at the phone while someone is calling, good - otherwise I'll call them back or write them.

Yeah that's the point, so there really is no need for every man to have children, should it be the norm I'm wondering. Can we get rid of this natural selection, and should we? I don't know. Why is it so self-evident that every person should have children? Clearly it's not natural. It's just another artificial "equality" of a social welfare state.
Of course it does. Have they seen the question before? Are they really good with math? Are they really bad with math? Do they even know how to approach a mathematical problem like this if they've never seen the formula before? Do they even consider that there might be a mathematical formula to determine this, or do they immediately just try to brute force it?

We can debate whether or not any of the above is useful information (I think it is), but not giving them the formula definitely gives you more information than just giving it to them.

The treatment is not without side effects. It's still a general therapy (it blocks all lymphocyte PD-1 receptors), not a cancer-target one.

Oncology is slow. It really is up to the patients to push the oncologist teams.
I had a similar realization, but it’s not really about working hard vs. not working hard, it’s about knowing what’s important to your manager. Early in my career I would never say no to any task, and would give the time estimate I thought the manager wanted, and then work over time to get it done. Half the time the finished product had bugs, got delivered too late, or ended up not matching what the client wanted, so the “hard work” didn’t translate directly into success. Now I try to figure out what the client’s actual needs are and how to meet them as quickly and with as little work as possible, and when something is requiring overtime, I immediately stop working on it and communicate that it’s a bigger issue than expected, and either push the project, get additional engineers, or find a different way to solve the issue. I think programmers really enjoy solving problems and we never like to admit that something is more difficult than we expected because we feel like we failed, but actually that’s just an expected part of the job. Obviously this only works if you have a good manager who actually cares about results. Bad managers are easy to manipulate because you just optimize for whatever BS metric they’ve decided is important, but those jobs are soul crushing.
Mario Run was also just not a very good game (this is obviously an opinion, but still…). I wonder how it would go if Nintendo tried releasing an actual good game for $10 or some other amount, not an infinite runner with a Mario skin.
The 30k was from lost stock.

I did tap into the value recently. It's more liquid compared to most private stock but nowhere as liquid as public stock.

The one advantage is all profits on the house are tax free.
A helpful analogy for me is how you can get penicillin free or cheap. It's extremely low priced but it's more valuable and should be treasured because of that low price not devalued.
I haven't been on LinkedIn for 15 years and it hasn't affected my career at all. Most people don't realize that you actually don't need LinkedIn.
Epic simply doesn't GAF about Linux, IIRC for 2 years the whole support for building UE4 on Linux was done by a single man who isn't an employee.
It wasn't really a walled garden, though. I remember using the AOL client software to connect to the internet and then opening IE to browse internet sites like yahoo, geocities and slashdot. When the computer owner who let me borrow his computer saw me do this he was stunned. He didn't realize he was connected to the internet this whole time.
I've worked my A$$ of literally for over 5 years now to put music on Spotify, through out those 5 years, I have about 30 songs up there, All in all I've probably only gotten about 1,400 streams generating about $20... I'm lucky I taught myself web development and project management, because with all the promise the Internet had when I was going through college, it seems that the only actual opportunity is in creating web sites and apps.

Fairness is simply not possible on these platforms, you can have the most polished product and sit totally ignored because of all the scams and schemes, I can't imagine how many people who don't have alternative opportunities like I did that are literally dying just trying to get a chance to be heard on a fiasco operation like this that literally and happily pays others to do absolutely nothing, while they charge creators for subscriptions and ads.

It's a really frickin bleak indicator as to the value of human labor going into the future... If the people who aren't providing value constantly win over the people that strive to, everything falls apart, and we'll end up in a total scheme economy.

As valid creators, we all need to back off and stop posting anything at all on social media and big platforms to highlight the total crap that is popular on the platform. A much better way is to create and maintain our own small independent sites and to link to each other more.

You can literally run a fan or leave a radio on a dead frequency to get white noise... You don't need a streaming service for that. This is ridiculous, and the article only serves to promote this brand of fraud. It's not capitalism, it's simply fraud from many facets.
You pay $100 a month for LinkedIn? Unless you're a recruiter I'm really wondering what the value is?
I wouldn't recommend buying anything health-related on Amazon due to inventory commingling and their complicity with counterfeiters.

As a rule, unless you have the skills and equipment necessary to evaluate the legitimacy and safety of the product you receive, don't buy it.

For electronics it's usually pretty easy for us HN users, but for this kind of product you'd need an entire lab to be able to tell whether what you got is actually real (and safe) or a knockoff/contaminated/expired.
That's a really interesting strategy. Thanks for the tip. What about emergency calls? But then I just realized, those are extremely uncommon.
It seems that it counts by reading the description: "small programming puzzles for a variety of skill sets and skill levels that can be solved in any programming language you like. People use them as a speed contest, interview prep, company training, university coursework, practice problems, or to challenge each other." But since I haven't used it, you or someone else can have the final say. I was thinking of an addictive game with progressive complexity and time-limited challenges that make you feel like you didn't waste time because of the knowledge you've gained.
Something that amazes me is that United’s app - freaking United FFS - is better behaved about this than most other apps.
Pushing it to the kernel means you have to upgrade your kernel to use it. Instead, you can just include a library that exposes a send() and recv() style API to the main app code, while the library just throws everything into a UDP socket. Seems better to me, IMO.

The real issue is that we can't get away from UDP/TCP because of middleboxes (firewalls, load balancers, etc) and the fact that switches only know how to hash on 5 tuples of protocols they know about. If you're lucky, your router will be able to look inside a GRE header or something, but that's about it.

When was the last time you used SCTP, for example? (If you've used it recently, I bet it was tunneled over UDP)
I often think that the British love of whining and complaining must give people elsewhere in the world a very distorted impression of the country. London has a very good rail system. It’s striking that the only specific complaint that you’ve made about it in these comments is that some sections of some lines are a bit noisy. Oh dear!

I loved Robocode, it was one of my first introductions to programming, as we used it in my high school programming class. I've sort of had a pipe dream for awhile to build a browser based Robocode inspired game. Not an exact clone, but a similar idea of programming bots to fight each other.
It’s even worse on mobile as the app might forcefully update you to a new Free to Play version. I spent $8 on Galaxy On Fire 2 HD which was acquired by another company then suddenly dropped the price and added ads and in app purchases. Very frustrating.
The process of shrinking to fewer humans is painful however: less people working, more people old and unable to work.
They are relying on 90% of people not knowing how to get to the notification settings. It's not dangerous, it's A/B tested...
Buzzkill is a godsent and should be an OS feature. Setting rules on notifications, automated actions and a history has reduced the deluge of useless distractions for me.

The app is proprietary and closed source though; it also uses Accessibility access. This might be a turn off for some threat models.
