Not to be rude or anything, but working in the ABQ area as well we have hired a few people who applied to Stellar Science, they have said they were just asked to submit a sample of work and never heard anything back. One or two of them my have been a bit bitter over it since they worked hard on their submissions. What exactly are you guys looking for or have your hiring standards changed or what usually leads to candidates not being hired.

This may sound like I applied and was burned, but I can assure you this wasn't the case, it just came up twice recently and a lot of people had gripes.

Neat gadget/site! I think people have concerns around value proposition when you sell the box for hundreds of dollars and say it's good to host a Ghost blog on.

I would probably advertise something bigger because FWIW I host a blog on a $5 pi fronted by Cloudflare (free).

These look really nice and clean though, wish you the best!
I’d be interested in discussing this more. I’ll shoot you an email.

After a quick search, I found pdfgrep[0] which sounds like one simple way to solve this problem. But I think it only runs on Linux.

I'm not sure there's necessarily a big difference between the way people post publicly visible content and non-publicly-visible content.

Posting a comment on reddit vs posting a comment on Facebook.

Posting a meme on reddit vs posting a meme on Facebook.

Posting a comment on a public Facebook post vs posting a comment on a private Facebook post.

Posting a post in a public Facebook group vs posting a post in a private Facebook group.

Posting a comment on a YouTube video vs posting a comment on a Friend's share of a Facebook video.

Posting a comment on a public Facebook video vs posting a comment on a friend's private reshare of that same Facebook video.

Posting a picture on reddit vs posting a picture on Facebook.

Posting a picture to a public Instagram profile vs posting a picture to a private Instagram profile.

Posting a picture to Twitter where Twitter tries to make everyone log in before viewing the picture.

Well no, the psychiatrist has options here, they could try to interview the parents or the teacher of the child and ask them what they remember. It's always helpful if a psychiatrist goes through the trouble of making a stronger case than "They must just not remember how autistic they were as a kid, so therefore, they had autism symptoms as a child". They're making a diagnosis with legal weight, a diagnosis that entitles you to various forms of government assistance.

This is the common "wisdom", which tends to make me skeptical.

But I do agree in the following sense. Once customers form opinions of a product and its pricing, those opinions tend to change relatively slowly. So managing expectations around pricing at launch is important.

There are many ways to tweak pricing expectations. Off the top of my head, some include: (a) "pre launch" pricing (used by Emery); (b) offering a family of products or modules or whatever, each of which is priced separately, implying that major additions will be an additional cost; (c) varying support levels; (d) varying usage levels; (e) extras such as security & encryption that enterprises will pay for; ...

It disturbs me that, 35 years after IBM stopped making punched-card equipment, I still can read card codes. There are definitely better uses for those neurons.

We got personal computers into our university (one lab of Macs for CS and one of PCs for engineers) because of the discontinuation of unit-record equipment. Working with several people from affected departments, I co-authored the proposal that was ultimately approved; we submitted it to the university committee that was struck to manage this transition, the “Committee to Abolish The Card Reader” (yes, that was its official name). To this day, I'm pleased that we managed to bypass time-sharing terminals for our first- and second-year students.

I'm a writer, speaker, editor, researcher, manager, and that guy who will (tactfully) tell you why your plan is bad and ask questions to help you make it better.

Co-founded OB1 in 2015, the company which built the open source, decentralized marketplace OpenBazaar. I managed the open source community and created most of the content for the project.

Wrote one of the first books about Bitcoin in 2013. Have traveled around speaking about crypto and decentralization since.

Founded and ran the technology policy program at a DC think tank for awhile.

I'm somewhat knowledgeable about technologies which focus on censorship resistance. This includes radio, a hobby of mine (I'm a licensed amateur radio operator).

I'm familiar enough with Git, Markdown, static sites, content management systems, and HTML / CSS to be able to create and maintain documentation / content for tech projects.

I can make simple bash scripts and know enough Python to automate basic tasks.

If you need someone with knowledge of cryptocurrency, decentralization, or open source to help create and manage content and / or a community, send me a message.

Also available for research projects, but only in fields which I find interesting.
M2 is already out and marcan got it up and running in, like, a few hours. Apple actually has a fair bit of engineering discipline and doesn't shuffle registers around on a whim. This isn't exactly Intel levels of "lol let me just run MS-DOS on my brand-new gaming rig" but it's way better than most ARM vendors.

If Qualcomm or Nvidia had half the compatibility discipline Apple had, third-party images for Android hardware would absolutely be a thing.

Oof, where to begin?

I've known more than a few CEOs between my father with his PhD in Business and specialization in strategic management and my own start in the startup world...

but if we're just going out on condescending limbs, I'm going to go out on one and guess you're just coping with the "more money than the rest of us part" by convincing yourself CEOs have a horrible lonely lives?

-

The reality is nothing you described doesn't somewhat apply to anyone approaching higher levels of a career.

For every study showing how depressed CEOs are compared to the peons, you'd find 10 more about how staff engineers/vps/product leads/etc. are too if anyone actually cared to study them.

It's success that brings pressure and stress, not the title of C-suite.

For example... "not knowing if anyone they meet is just looking for a handout"

The median household income in this country is $67,000. If you're working in tech long enough to be turning down C-suite positions and don't already have this problem I'd start searching for a new job about 5 years ago.

-

Your vision of a CEO is either that of a founder CEO who lives like they're guiding their child (and will be replaced if the company ever grows large enough), or a Disney Channel movie you took too seriously.

The "career C-suite" is not hired for their inability to commit to WLB.

They're not hired to kiss ass on weekends.

They're not hired to play psychologist to coax out your "true feelings".

They definitely don't tend to hang around people who need handouts.

They're not putting the company before themselves because at the end of the day the next job is waiting in the Rolodex.

It is pretty hilarious that you think that though! Honestly you're describing what they wish people would see them as. I know plenty of C-suites would be over the moon with your characterization :)
This is the same so far for me - even mild stimulants like caffeine (I know, it's a different underlying chemical process) have less effect - I could drink coffee right before bed without much/any issue. And still trying to find a stimulant that helps with ADHD myself (only on my 2nd one (Ritalin, Adderall), and pretty mild doses so far). But that is also pretty common for me - I've always had fairly high drug resistance, as it were (need higher doses to feel any affect), so I don't know if that is at all specific to ADHD and those medications.
Going deeper on this comparison because I only just remembered it was a comparison we could make:

In the 2022 Monaco E-Prix (FE), the best qualifying lap time was 89.839s [0].

For the 2022 Monaco Grand Prix (F1), the pole was 71.376s [1]. It's worth noting that this is with slower cars than have recently been the case; the same times last year were > 1 second faster.

The top level Formula 3 series (currently FIA International F3, formerly GP3/European F3) doesn't race at Monaco; the last time a top tier F3 championship did race there was GP3 in 2012 (88.008s) [2]. Note that these are 10-year-old cars; current top-tier F3 cars are ~15% faster [3] (at modern Silverstone, which is the only circuit configuration used both years) than they were in 2012.

While GP3/F3 weren't present, Formula Regional European, a Tier 4 series that races in Formula 3 cars did race there; pole was 89.802s [4]. However, these are a lower tier of driver and team; last year, they were 7% slower at Barcelona [5] than FIA F3.

As such, one could argue that current FIA F3 would be a bit (10%?) faster than Formula E cars at Monaco.

On the other hand, this comparison is not quite fair to the electric cars! The chemically-fueled cars do qualifying with as little fuel as possible (to reduce their weight to the minimum), where electric cars have to take the full weight hit of their total energy store during qualifying. The F1 cars can't come anywhere near their qualifying pace until the very end of the race; in theory, a Formula E car would be capable of a qualifying-paced lap at any point during the race. As such, we should also compare Formula 1 cars' paces at the start of the race. Unfortunately for the comparison this year, the F1 race started off wet; the fastest laps around Lap 3 (after the start had cleared) were ~101s [6]. The 2021 Monaco Grand Prix, which was dry, is an easier example: the fastest laps on lap 3 were about 77s [7] , still substantially faster than the FE cars ever get.

To make the Indycar comparison we need to look all the way back to 2019, since Indycar has scrupulously avoided racing at F1 tracks whenever possible, up to and including conspicuously not marketing the Indianapolis road course to F1 (despite its qualifications and history as an F1 track, and the soaring demand for US-based F1 races). In that event, the fastest qualifying lap was 105.454s [8]. For F1, the pole lap of the 2019 US GP was 93.750 [9]. There is a reason Indycar avoids comparisons.

The "we can't figure out how to change Linux to use only primary storage" is real. I realized not too long ago that the biggest thing holding back the advancement of computing is software developers. They can't imagine novel ideas. Try to explain to a developer that dependency hell only exists at all because their own software/compilers/programming languages aren't tracking dependencies within their own application's functions, and they look at you like a dog looking at a human in a dog costume. (Most of them also think YAML is a configuration format and don't know what SDLC stands for, so I guess the dependency thing is way out there)
Pattern matching in Python is not perfect, but I still thinks this is a cool feature. The ergonomic doesn't match Rust pattern matching as explained in this recent discussion[0] but it's better than nothing IMO.

For a track it could be something like a long metal plate embedded in the road that you drive over with a parallel long metal plate suspended above the track; one side is positively charged and the other side is negative.

Since all the cars are basically the same size, the "pantograph" might only stick up a few inches.

A somewhat more complex system might have power and ground rails embedded in slots in the road surface, and there's something on the bottom of the car that drops a conductor into the slots. There's a test of that kind of system being done in Norway or Sweden (I forget which) on a public road.

Maybe... I think the bigger problem is that Intel was banking on corporate/commercial customers to buy these cards, and in the end they were only able to trick a few gamers and pro users into buying one. It really begs the question of which workloads are memory/bandwidth constrained, and how does this help them? It reminds me of Apple's impressive memory bandwidth figures for M1 Pro/Max, that were slightly soured when only a scant few real-world tasks fully took advantage of it.

We don't really need memory-mapped storage, IMO. If we do, it's perfectly attainable with swap/virtual memory (and pretty damn fast with newer NVME specs). I think Intel found something cool, didn't know how to market it, and ended up placing a bad bet on fairly domain-specific technology.
For sure, sharpening analysis chops is a good reason, but in a world of finite time, and an overabundance of important decisions to make regarding one's life, there's no shortage of analysis fodder to begin with.

And no doubt that sometimes it's just nice and pleasurable and interesting to deliberate over anything at all, making small things grand, but it's also good to know when it's actually optional.
Microsoft extends life of cloud servers from four to six years
The issue is it is hard to know whether the two (or more) choices are equally good.

If you have no way of knowing which choice is better then you would flip the coin of course. The problem is there typically is a way to possibly learn more about which is better, AND HOW MUCH, by studying the choices. The "How much" -part is crucial. One choice might lead to core meltdown.

Often such study does not provide any further information about which is better. But it might. You just don't know. Except if you are lucky and the answer is immediately obvious.

So if it looks like you have two choices A and B, it is more typically the case that you in fact have THREE choices:

1. Choose A

2. Choose B

3. Spend more time studying which is better, and how much, A or B

The comment said power density, and supercapacitors have almost 10x the power density.

The energy density hit is between 1 and 2 orders of magnitude, not several.

You could run a lap on supercapacitors alone. Or make it so most of the power comes from supercaps so that there's a bit more endurance and running low is a bit less harsh.
Indeed. Might have been an alright a decade ago, but now we have all these services that you fill in every few weeks/months about performance, goals etc. so that managers can have an overview. There is nothing to hide behind anymore, managers have all the data, they need to learn what to do with. Butt-in-seat is not a satisfactory KPI.
There was indeed often a colored stripe at the top of the card. At computer centers I used, this stripe was used to indicate what JCL (job control language) statement was on the card. So the computer center would have a big stack of pink cards already punched with the statement to invoke the FORTRAN compiler, for example. The teacher told you to put a pink card at the front of your FORTRAN deck before you submitted it, or it wouldn't work.
It’s a different skill set. When companies are small, advancing the agenda is the most important thing. As companies get bigger “advancing the agenda without pushing anyone off” is what’s important.

When companies get huge, the balance gets lopsided. So many people have explicit or implicit veto power that the “don’t piss anyone off” becomes more important than getting things done. And that’s why you see execs failing forward with content-free messages of glorious buzzwords. It’s also why it’s very dangerous to hire Big Company execs into a startup where it’s still important to advance the agenda.
This is a very silly analysis. Lots of smart people took a good, hard look at 3DXP and it just never made economic sense. On top of the cost of the modules, and the cost of the high-spec processor that can use it, it also comes with the opportunity cost of not getting to use a DIMM slot for DRAM. It wasn't the failure of the industry to imagine a better future, it was the failure of the product to make economic sense.
