You're reading way too much in what I already told you was an offhand remark. I replied to your other posts out of courtesy, not to win an argument.
If you can't find 2h for a Zoom call I start questioning your commitment to get the job, especially when there is no time limit on when you can have the meeting (within reason). When I had an important interview in a place where I really wanted to work I would usually take entire day off and make sure I am well rested, prepared and in right state of mind.

Yes, it is stressful. I try to make interviews less stressful but I also believe ability to perform under stress is a desirable trait. I have been presented with many stressful situations in my past where I had to deal with high stakes, difficult problems on a short notice, with important people watching my every move. Like dealing with an outage that incapacitated an entire national bank and was causing a loss of about 50M USD per day.

Now, I am mostly interviewing senior devs, team leads, tech leads, etc. I would be much more lenient with junior roles but I just don't have time to interview everybody and I also like to give the chance for other people to work on their interviewing skills.
The code looks fine to me. If you see the newer C++23 guides like Lospinoso's C++ book, auto, shared_ptr, braces default value initializations are all considered best practices now. The only major issue I see is that OP should have used references instead of shared_ptrs for some of the variables.
Is Wikipedia's prompt to donate (which they do quite often) an ad?
The US had some of the best hospitals in the world, often because they are associated with the best research universities.

The problem with US healthcare is distribution (a similar but less acute problem exists in education) and efficiency (same).

In fact you could argue that US healthcare priorities being so similar to our education priorities (i.e. spend a bunch of resources on the absolute best, particularly infinitely scalable research like pharmaceuticals, but then hope and pray for the underfunded rest) is what causes a lot of the criticism people levy against US healthcare.

Yup - nothing to see here.
Once, when I started out, I did a take-home test and didn't get the job. The feedback was literally "In some of the files, you mixed tabs and spaces" - which was not true. The penny dropped a few years later: there never was a job. I did some kid's homework.

> diffusing accumulated salt back to the sea water.

A big issue of desalinisation is the increase in salt in water: brine streams coming out of osmosis plants are dead zones in the sea. I'm not sure this is a good idea for the shore.
As a technical hiring manager, I was involved in some teams that did use homework assignments.

Their fatal issue on the hiring side is that they take too much time to properly score.

If you ask a good candidate to work for 4+ hours, they'll produce code that will cost 2+ hours of a great engineer to thoroughly check.

Lots of companies are very fond of giving candidates huge tasks and having them spend 4+ hours on these. But practically no company will have their best senior engineers (a very scarce resource) dedicate dozens of hours per month to check these tasks.

Hence, these tasks effectively never receive the resources required to properly check them. Especially at the more senior level. If you're hiring a senior engineer, and giving them a 4 hour homework task, a staff-level engineer would have to spend 2-3 hours to properly check it.

Forget about it, that's not happening.

Instead, these teams do ask the senior engineer to take 4 hours to work on the task. However, once the hard part arrives, the team will never check it properly. They'll assign some junior engineer for an hour to check it.

The team won't care, because it's the candidate's time being wasted, while theirs is efficiently preserved. Plus, our junior engineers are so amazing, they can certainly score the work of a senior in less than an hour.
I'm still trying to grasp the real use of this.. IMO Looks like a bad solution for a problem that wasn't really that big
I agree with this. Having been in times square, it was nothing but being constantly bumped, having to say "No" to people hawking their CD to support their burgeoning music career, and keeping your wallet close by to avoid being pickpocketed.

The strip in Las Vegas is not far behind. While people didn't tend to bump me, there was a never endings series of people trying to get me to buy their prostitutes for the night.

The sense of time and place in both movies is tremendous. Kiki's city is the kind of bustling, walkable place urbanists dream of, in its own era of can-do optimism mirroring the protagonist herself. Porco's setting is a little more melancholic, its picturesque villages bearing the memories both of simpler times and of past war, with the reconstruction of Porco's plane serving as a microcosm of the world around it.

I don't think the hate or admiration for Rogan is warranted. Rogan appears to accidentally be a good interviewer: he's amicable, credulous, and lets his guests talk. This can be great for learning a lot about a guest really feels, or at least how a guest really wants to present themselves. However, if the guest makes a bad point, Rogan is unlikely to notice it. (the same goes if the host makes a point in bad faith.) And arguably, the audience may not notice it if neither Rogan nor his guest highlight it. Is this the end of the world? No, not really. Another news publication somewhere else will ask the questions that Rogan cannot. And, in a perfect world, there's value in both kinds of interview: the adversarial interview, and the softball long-form interview. In principle, the softball long-form interview could actually be very damning when compared against other sources of information, such as the adversarial interview.

In a less polarized world, I suspect that Rogan would never have been famous in the first place.
yeah.. why?
I really don’t understand why this doesnt happen in the U.S. more? Are ugly fruits just thrown in compost?
Value is purely subjective. Given that, it is an interesting question as to why someone would place value on an entity, and what the nature of that value is, though the scope of this query seems to be so wide that a simple answer is more prone to be facile than profound, e.g. claiming that what is valuable is identical to what is 'life enhancing' sounds vacuous and tautological, while claiming that it is that which helps us achieve our goals is at least slightly more specific, but it is also wrong, as we clearly value things that do not perform such a task.

Got to dig out my copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance to try and understand again what Pirsig meant by 'quality.'

> a lot of very experienced engineers encountering Rust, going "holy shit", and trying to preach about it from the rooftops

Preaching is like a religious thing. Why are people getting religious over a programming language?

People are obviously just making a living off of writing Rust and that's fine. I just find it so hilarious, dumbfounding and sad that people would stoop to such levels of dick-suckery over a programming language. Like, you all know it's going to replaced by Malbolge in 15 years, right?
This would be great on iOS but I sense it would be blocked by Apple. Ipad/iphone versions would be an excellent addition.
> Counter point seems to be Slack, which has become better (in my opinion) after the Salesforce Acquisition.

...which was only finalized about a year ago, and "phase one" of Salesforce's several-steps-plan that culminates in screwing up an acquisition is usually needlessly tinkering with pricing and packaging, which just happened recently [0].

The next step, if past patterns are predictors, will be an attempt to bundle Slack into their existing SKUs, then work on integrating Slack with their nightmare CRM codebase/dev-env, and then from there it's all downhill as velocity abruptly halts, the ratio of time spent doing meaningful work vs. time spent doing compliance busy-work stalls out completely, and the brain-drain begins.

There really aren’t “plenty” - slots to live in places like this come up rarely and are fiercely competitive. If you’re not making FAANG money you have no real chance of owning one. And the reason it’s this way is suburban preferences have so dominated government for so long that it is either a historical oddity or an extreme swimming-upstream exception when a walkable neighborhood exists.

Laws can be changed, and so can their interpretation. It seems the real fix is nothing short of a clearly-written constitutional amendment. Even then, compare the search and seizure amendment to civil forfeiture...
What software are you running, and how much time do you spend on maintenance?
The main drawback I saw compared to Heroku is no longer a drawback now that Heroku will have no free plans. But Fly's 256M free apps just OOM-ed for a hobby project whereas they ran fine with Heroku's 512M free dynos so I moved there.
Over-revving is next to impossible nowadays as the ECU will cut fuel flow to prevent it. Hence "bouncing off the limiter".

As someone who does what you suggest, it's great but it is a lot of overhead and not zero click. Updates, reboots, lambda functionality (autoscale, blue/green, etc) and database hosting is always complex.

This is why I recommend Woocommerce over Shopify, I already have hosting, if I'm gonna try and make some money in ecommerce, might as well try it without having limits. I can have unlimited products/choices on WooCommerce. WP is a shit show, but so is Shopify's subscription model.

Personally, I'd like to see them move to a model where it's completely free until you have 100 sales, then you have to upgrade or something. That would encourage more people to use/try it, plus give them a chance to actually see success and start their small business, rather than fail because they're running out of money for their business.

There is something to building around a consensus on who they are roughly around the phrase “first cause no harm”
I'll add to what should and what will happen a third category: what could happen. But first:

The problem with public domain is that there's no legal requirement for the publisher to give it away once the copyright expires (if they are the sole possessor). If something is legally public domain but no one has a copy, then it doesn't matter.

If we had a library of deposit (publishers legally have to provide a copy to e.g. the library of congress) for commercial software like we do for books, that would fix that.

Another thing that could happen is that consumers could just reject game streaming like they did in the 80s (GameLine) 90s (Sega Channel) and 00s (OnLive)... I think those were technical, not consumer rejection problems though, but I'd be glad to be wrong. Nevertheless, I'll do my part by never paying for a cloud game. If consumers reject it, it'll die off and games will continue as before. I also hope the PS5 digital fails; already I can't use a bunch of PS3 game features (gran turismo track editor, dlc, etc) since the servers are shut down.

One more thought: mods and custom servers can do special things that people love, and that will always be viable, and worth a lot of money. If Arma II were a cloud only game, DayZ wouldn't have been made, which means neither would PUBG or Fortnite have arisen. Maybe the concept of mods will always keep the local game alive?
Heroku Dyno + free cochroachdb instance, reasonable enough
Beginning?
Joe drives drunk and high all over town, often with his guests.
He changes opinions based on whoever he's in front of.
When given new info he doesn't like, rather than look into it, he ONLY looks at "debunkings".
He supports a lot really trash people. For example, Joey Diaz who proudly metoo's women, is addicted to hard drugs, abandoned his daughter, and stomps his poo into the shower drain. There are a hundred other truly trash people he promotes as heroes. Or another example, Anthomy Cumia, an admitted pedophile who got in big trouble for domestic abuse (he admitted to biting a young woman's hand) and just last week tweeted "f**** kill all n***"
Maybe he gets some good guests too, but it's always a shallow interview and he'll often ask the same question 5-6 times (the Elon Musk ep, for example).
He strongly promotes diets he 100% certainly has never followed, like the Carnivore diet. He's no health expert--he's smoking cigars and drinking whiskey on nearly every show.
He had an affair with Ali Macofsky and seems to have abandoned his family.
I could go on. I should say, I don't hate the guy. But he is awful and deserves to be made fun of
Serious question: What do journals actually do ? Do they check the article ? Why is it important for it to be in a journal ?

I don't know much about academic research, fyi.

I think it's also a midway proposal for other reasons. The proposal merely suggests open access but barely specifies anything. I don't want to give the government personal information and enable endless tracking to them just because I want to download a paper.

> You can have one free project on your user account, and the resources you create within it will be limited. You will not be billed for any usage within a free project, but you must add a card to your account for verification first.

not having to add credit card info before using the free tier is one of the main reasons for Heroku being so popular with students and toy projects, truly a friction-free experience.
Culture appropriation is the adoption of something from another culture. Every single culture does this. Are you Asian making pizza? That's cultural appropriation. It's not a bad thing, it's just a thing.

This also isn't ethnic fraud. That would be someone who is say, Japanese claiming to be Indian, when they are in fact fully ethnically Japanese. Not once has someone claimed an ethnicity on a support call with me. Implied? Sure. I've heard people with heavy Indian accents tell me their name was Cindy, Sarah, James, etc, but this is only by implication.

If your core concern is the outsourcing of jobs, then you can easily ask "in what country are you located?"
Interesting app.

I'm curious about your choice of using comments, was there an advantage to using this approach over something like decorators?

As it is currently, commments are often a bit weird to debug / view (grayed out) I'm sure there's some advantages to using them here, just thought I'd ask.
I'm a big fan of live exercises too, mainly because it's a great way to see how candidates think and how they collaborate with others. There are only a couple tradeoffs with this format (every approach has them): live exercises can be more stressful and teams with many applicants won't have the bandwidth to offer this to everyone who could be qualified.

My favorite is a combination: short (1 hr) take-home followed by live discussion/pairing with anyone who does a half-decent job. It reduces stress because candidates will already be familiar with the code (they wrote it!) while being efficient with time.
Complexity is inherently problematic

I wouldn't necessarily agree, but curious to hear this thought developed some more, if you'd be willing to indulge me? Maybe I'm missing some implied context here that you have experience with that could change my mind.

where does the opposite idea stem from?

Good question. For me personally, it stems from my subscription to the dichotomy of accidental vs. essential complexity as written about here (and other places) https://simplicable.com/new/accidental-complexity-vs-essenti...

Sometimes complexity is unavoidable, but I don't conflate something being complex with a thing being complicated. Complicated systems I would agree, are inherently problematic.

(also, your username just made me very hungry for a falafel sandwich. Excuse me for a moment)
I mean, yeah. This isn't the only status logic. Just one part I've observed. GitHub is very much event-based.
I don’t know why you are framing this as an impossible task. It doesn’t need to be on the scale of Bing/Google to function. There are already some self-hosted search engine solutions that work okay. Just filter out all the trash sites with low quality content like Facebook/Twitter from the database and that 300TB common crawl could probably be cut down to a more reasonable 200TB. Filter out non-English results and it probably halves it further. I’m seeing 8TB drives on Newegg for $129. It absolutely does not take anywhere on the order of “days” to query a properly optimized db of this size.
Thank you for sharing the unforeseen depths of a monolith :D
> ADDED: I suppose one could argue that the Bar exam is a bit like that but that's a credential as are degrees which are not necessarily all that overlapping with the real world.

Yeah, I think most other professions where one might imagine them doing something like a stereotypical software interview, use that instead: a credential obtained by a (perhaps very difficult!) test, maybe with periodic re-tests or required refresher courses to keep the credential valid.

I have a suspicion that a big part of why top-comp software companies keep their interviews so incredibly unpleasant has more to do with discouraging job-hopping among them (so, suppressing wages) than with its being the best process for hiring good developers.
Got it. It is not enough to have a fixed width instruction set, you also have to actually decode and execute them faster after decoding. Wonder at what point we will start seeing competitive ARM CPUs.
Also not OP. I've got a Synology 918+ that I've used for years, and as a file store, I'm quite pleased.

I've tried running apps on it, and the ones that are available are decent, but I pretty quickly got to where I needed to SSH in to make certain things happen, and that felt weird for an appliance like this. I added Docker and ran a bunch of stuff on that, and that was kind of a pain. They don't make it easy to update the images and the community's solution is to SSH in and install watchtower to do it.

I'm now just using it for network file storage and running all those services on a Linux box instead.

I thought about just putting the drives in the Linux box, but I did some network testing and the NAS was faster, and it provides a lot of storage-related niceties, so I'm keeping it in the mix. For instance, I recently decided to upgrade the drives to faster, larger ones, and it's been pretty easy.
To build up on that idea - iOS/android app where people could snap photos of the night sky along with precise GPS coordinates and time. The app could direct people to point at some specific spot. Resolution of each photo would be subpar compared to each telescope, but maybe that is ok if you get a few millions of samples.
This is exactly what you should tell athletes, especially ones in team based games. Going to the coach and demanding more play time will usually get better results than just silently being a good player.

Obviously this doesn't apply in individual pursuits like swimming [edit] or in situations where the coach is beholden to other parties (a paying audience).

[edit] To clarify: A coach should incentivize things they believe win games. An athlete should do those things so that the coach gives them playtime. An athlete should also promote the fact that they are doing those things to the coach.
If you are into trains and are visiting Japan, do yourself a favor and visit The Railway Museum in Saitama - 40 min away from Tokyo, by train ;)

> Hot take - walkability is super overrated. I don't want to go to the same 5 resturaunts I can walk to.

Not only a walkable city will provide you with some 50 restaurants at 10-15 minutes by feet, but what is more important is having groceries and other household shops at 5 minutes.

> In my current suburb I am good friend with all of my neighbors. We share vegetables from our gardens, have block parties, let children play together, it's extremely social.

All of this often happens in walkable cities as well.
