The only mistake the OP made was in acting like they hadn’t seen the question before, but other than that everything was fine. These code screen questions are usually a basic gut check and the real evaluation comes later at the on-site. Honestly the interviewer did a bad job though because the question clearly gives an advantage to someone who has seen it before.

Once I had a candidate struggle with my screening question, flattening an array of nested arrays, and that’s fine because I normally use that as an opportunity to see how they ask questions and work together on finding a solution. But the candidate went silent for about 5 minutes and then came back with a perfect solution, using iterators, which are a pretty obscure JavaScript feature. I later found that exact code block on the MDN site, and I was pretty shocked at how brazen an action it was, because if they had just asked for direction and admitted they were struggling they could have still passed the interview.
Well first thing is that the Elizebeth line, even on the World Stage is absolutely top class ( I know that doesn't sound very British XD ). And It is building on top or next to the oldest underground / railroad system. There are plenty of new infrastructures that aren't better than similar ones in Japan or South Korea.

Reading some papers and having superficial knowledge about a field is not the same as knowing the science.
Sorry, but this is bullshit. If I employ relevant techniques to protect my domain and the protection works, and I am not sending spam (which I am not), then Google (no idea what MS does) should not care about the IP I am sending my e-mail through. I have proved that the e-mail is tied to my domain and they know that my domain is not spamming - what more do they want?

Even better - Google could help small mail server admins by actually providing the information that landed their e-mail in the spam folder. If the protection is tied to the domain, no spammer will be helped by this knowledge.

And I understand that maybe a new domain might be suspicious at first, but after a few years of unchanged ownership (backed by whois data) there is simply no reason to put any mail messages from these domain to spam. Whatever the IP is.

Stop making up excuses for them. They are negligent at best, malicious at worst. Can't wait till they get hit by a lawsuit over this.
> The question is - why doesn't the platform warn you that you're going to send notifications to a large number of people in the same way that many email clients do?

The real question is why is it allowed to send at all? Depending on human judgment to stop spamming is a poor decision because bad actors don't care. I discovered this and GitHub s hilariously terrible setup a week ago when another large repository became a spam source and GitHub offered no easy way to unsubscribe.
Assuming forethought one can set up a living trust. I have one. If I can no longer consent then a family member I designated can consent for me. It isn't without risk and requires a lot of trust.
You're able to directly message people that are not your friends and see who saw your profile (no matter their privacy configuration, I believe). For me that's about it. Useful if you are job hunting, but nothing to go crazy over.

Honestly, the only thing keeping me on LinkedIn is FOMO of that spectacular job that a recruiter might reach out about, but reality is that this doesn't happen at all for positions worth their salt.
Perhaps releasing internal code or documentation is a mile of red-tape so some forward-thinking people are trying to do what they can to support the project while avoiding the above-mentioned issues.
This changed a couple of years ago, apps can send you ads so long as you opt in, but what qualifies as opting in can be as simple as a bit of language during signup; it’s pretty easy to bypass this.

I love Go and goroutines, but...

> A newly minted goroutine is given a few kilobytes

a line later

> It is practical to create hundreds of thousands of goroutines in the same address space

So it's not practical to create 100s of Ks of goroutines - it's possible, sure, but because you incur GBs of memory overhead if you are actually creating that many goroutines means that for any practical problem you are going to want to stick to a few thousand goroutines. I can almost guarantee you that you have something better to do with those GBs of memory than store goroutine stacks.

Asking the scheduler to handle scheduling 100s of Ks of goroutines is also not a great idea in my experience either.

Why do you need LinkedIn? (non-recruiters)
I'm not a recruiter, and I deleted my LinkedIn account over 15 years ago, and found I have never needed it. If someone asks me for my LinkedIn, I give my email address instead. This works quite well.

What would happen if you deleted your LinkedIn account?
I have very few apps, and all notifications turned off for all of them. I will check on new messages or info on my own time, thanks.
Suggested title change: fitting a linux computer into a Nokia 1680 shell. @dang
I've found that apps that properly set up channels on Android where your can easily block promotional notifications, don't abuse their notifications, and ones that don't put all their notifications through a couple different channels making it impossible to turn off only the ones you don't want. Amazon and Uber are examples of apps that abuse this.
I don't have a link handy but I have read in the past some cases of trial participants being ejected from a trial because they started prolonged fasting and killed their cancer cells. I suppose that is in line with the external factor you mention.
Apple rescinding the rule that banned promotional notifications is one of the worst UX decisions they’ve ever made.

Yes, because companies can "own" property. The fact that humans change jobs or retire inside one has no impact on this.

Greed may be what they are selected for, but I don't think it's necessarily obvious that's what drives them. It's also not necessarily obvious that this is the most robust mechanism to achieving sustained success.
Which means I leave the app Offloaded when I'm not using it and may not go through the friction to reinstall when I need a ride.

Another comment here pointed out you can change it under the obvious /s location: Settings > Privacy > Notification Preferences > Discounts and News.
> Better yet, it would be great to have some sort of “disable marketing notifications” inside the app.

Given the current state of app distribution I’d rather have this _outside_ the app. Add an OS level toggle to enable or disable marketing notifications (system wide or app specific), force apps to categorize their notifications, and provide a mechanism to report bad actors. This problem creates a bad experience for all users so seems like it’s worth platform-level intervention.

A lot of filters for finding spam in systems look at values like the relationship between reports (for bad behavior) vs "good" contributions. Spammers will try to game the system by pushing out lots and lots of "good" contributions to then be able to sneak in the few really bad ones.
I started reading through Highway docs, and maybe I missed something, but I’m surprised it’s a built library to be linked against, instead of a header-only library —- at least when using static targeting.

I was asking for an explanation. Yes I could downvote and move on but you seemed to be trying to make a point, but it was impossible to find it. I thought giving you another opportunity would help others but I think perhaps you don't want to be understood, you just wanted to make a snide comment. Seriously, this isn't Reddit, HN has a decent comment section because usually people take time to make considered and worthwhile comments. I guess you decided against that course of action.
In fact, it might be that their method is a lot lot simpler:

- Detect any protracted images on the photos which shouldn't be protracted

- Interpret ends of them as 2 observations and dots at 1/3 and 2/3 as 2 others (exploiting the fact that speed of angular motion at such a short interval is essentially constant).

- Run a (very crude) orbit detection using these

- Look for any suspicious dots on other images within the margin of error provided by this orbit (that is, where the object with that orbit should've been if it was real, at a time each other shot was made).

- If found, use these for orbit refinement, rinse and repeat until on all shots where the object should've been apparent, it is present, or reject it as a false detection if that doesn't happen.
> If the people who aren't providing value constantly win over the people that strive to

Not that I don't sympathize with your struggles, but aren't the people who are creating background noise tracks doing exactly that, providing value? The article talks about tracks with natural noise or ambient noises, so it's not exactly the same as turning a fan on. I can't see how this is a scam.

Also from the article, there's a team of five making some of these, so it's not even accurate to label them as low effort (though I'll admit they're probably admin and marketing roles...).

> I have about 30 songs up there, All in all I've probably only gotten about 1,400 streams

That's only 46 listens per song. That suggests to me that you're not self-promoting, or doing something wrong. Even if there weren't white noise tracks on Spotify with 100k listens, there are millions of songs with <100 listens; even if the Spotify exposure algorithms were "fair" you wouldn't get any more listens than you already have.
I'm not sure if they actually use IRC internally, it could just be presenting itself as IRC to have an easy API with tons of libraries offering support. Internally, it could translate IRC calls to whatever their internal architecture wants.

I don't think it's true that their last decent game was almost 10 years ago. Overwatch is a really great game and it came out 6 years ago.
The only way to really deter this stuff is to make it cost the sender something per spam. Bonus points if the user can feed back into the system to discourage truly unpopular notifications.
I'll second Michael Kerrisk. Here's what I had to say about "The Linux Programming Interface" in an earlier post [1]:

Covers some of the history of the Linux/Unix API, describes it in detail, has plenty of examples, compares different APIs that do similar things so you can make an informed choice (e.g. System V vs. POSIX message queues).

If any book in this list stands out for me, it's probably this one. It might be partly due to the surprise factor of how enjoyable and well-written a 1000+ page, near-reference book is.

From that same list [1] I'll also highlight Graham Hutton, whose writing I find particularly good and clear. He also has a number of YouTube videos on functional programming and Haskell.

Someone also mentioned Julia Evans [2]. She makes complex topics more approachable.

I like it because now I have something gameified to recommend to people who want to break into computer security. It was REALLY easy for me as someone who's been mired in that world for a long time, though I'm probably going to buy the other missions to see if they pose more of a challenge.

Make sure to download the performance DLC. It runs in a VM but it's better off with virtualbox in my experience than the other options. Opt for compiled tools rather than old perl and python scripts if you want missions to go faster.
Such an approach also tend to look only for confirmations, not contradictions.

Shakespeare is prolific, his work encompass a great many characters, thoughts, and events. It is easy to find parallels in any persons life. But if we say all events must have a biographical inspiration, we can esily eliminate any single person as the possible author.

> He even gave a talk at C3 a couple years ago that was basically an hour long explanation for why he continued to think this way and that he hadn't changed his mind at all.

In that talk he explains why they don't decentralize their protocol or the ecosystem.

His concern is that a decentralized ecosystem means actively supporting third party implementations and having to achieve consensus when making changes, which slows down (or flat out stops) their ability to evolve the protocol and turn out new features.

That's a totally orthogonal issue to banning unofficial, unsupported clients.

For 2, Codingame's bot programming challenges are excellent. To get high on the leaderboards you need to write super well optimized code and have clever ideas, which is about as fun as a programming challenge gets.

I think this self awareness to disable notifications if they abuse it mostly only occurs for engineering types or other people with a lot of self control. It remains a powerful engagement trick because it hooks into the brains of people with less mental stability, like people with adhd etc (which for all the mental health awareness tech platforms tries to align themselves with would appear to have the opposite effect).
The issue that I'm having with this, is that child care is still relatively unqualified work, so how can it ever be highly compensated?

Parents who are highly educated doctors, pilots etc argue that they should be able to stay at home for 1-2 years with almost full salary, which the tax payers should subsidise, and at the same time they also pay an uneducated 16 year old 10 bucks an hour to babysit when they go to the movies?

And you have 1 educated child care professional easily caring for 10 small children, and making a very modest salary.

It doesn't really add up.

My only issue is that I'm a fan of two of these bands and their history means one can't be nailed down well on this. Beast in Black split off of Battle Beast and the original group got significantly less nerdy (their earlier songs were mostly either about Berserk or some sort of cyberpunk, a song about Neuromancer is distinctly more nerdy than the less referential work later) because the lead songwriter is who left. I'm sure other groups have had similar rapid changes in nerdiness/kickassery too.

That's an interesting idea. I'd support that as an interviewer - I think the question candidates ask would also give you some information about the candidate too.

Sadly I doubt that sort of thing would ever become normal. Plus interviews already take enough time. Not sure I'd really want them to take any longer.

The only things that happened when I deleted my LinkedIn account were the following:

1. I stopped getting as much spam, especially from shady tech recruiters and randos from India trying to "network". No great loss there.

2. I occasionally have idiot managers at my day job complaining that they can't find me on the internet. Apparently these managers think that LinkedIn is the internet the way some boomers do with Facebook.

Other countries with cultures of gun ownership don't have the same problems that the US does with gun violence. That is either because those countries have greater restrictions on guns, or because Americans are simply more violent and incapable of living within the norms of civil society, with or without guns, since if the guns weren't a factor (and thus gun control wasn't a factor) one would expect mass violence to me more or less equivalent in all societies.
