I've noticed a lot of the more experienced people in our office stop trusting things as soon as they see drop shadows and branded color schemes. And they are all very quick with the old terminals.
Heroku implemented their own container system and expose it to end users as a "Dyno".
Well I suggest you visit Norfolk. Councils have sold off their long-held land to developers, dumped their investments to their mates, stripped down services and tendered the rest. Serco does everything.

Save the odd blip, Norfolk is as blue as it gets. Interestingly they also blame central government.

And local tax raising is pretty blunt. How much your house would have been worth in April 1991, if you're working. High-retirement or high-unemployment areas usually have lower rates, and much lower incomes, while needing more than rich areas.
I have a better idea. Don't do take-home assignments as a candidate and don't give them as part of your interview process as an employer. Problem solved.
I ran into him at the post office in rockridge/temescal. I asked him if he was indeed Cliff. We stepped outside and chatted for about half an hour. It was an incredibly good conversation.

You're welcome. I wish I could do something to make things better for people, but I am one person and I can't enact change on my own to the scale needed to really make an impact. But what I can do is take action at the individual level.

I really wish that things could be better though.
It would be great if the author would provide example research which they think should not have been published under this new ethics guidance.
How is masquerading as wanting to help but instead having the ulterior motive of preventing them from learning about or getting a certain medical treatment helping? It sounds more like a shameless and disgusting deception.

I guess that's where the misunderstanding comes from. I was not talking about CPU cores alone. Only M1, M2 as a whole.

But I still am not sure if I can believe that the M2 CPU improved performance while at the same time cutting power. Can you link to some analysis? Would be very interesting. Though please not the A15 one, the cores are related but not the same and the CPUs have big differences.

> In the case of ad companies, they want correct data because they think it allows them to target ads better - they definitely care about accuracy.

If they cared, at all, they'd provide a means for people to confirm the accuracy of the assumptions they make about you and correct mistakes. They also wouldn't bother with buying from data brokers who gather data from any number of unreliable sources. It's quantity over quality every time.

I'm not even sure ad companies actually think all the data allows them to better target ads or even that targeted ads are preferable. They have to convince their clients of that though. Really all they care about is pushing ads and collecting money.

> just make your noise-introducer not add hazardous content.

Good luck. There are an endless number of things that might prejudice someone against you. Your lifestyle, your politics, your religion, the people you associate with, your sexual history, your hobbies, your medical conditions, etc. The longer you go filling your dossier with random information the more likely it is that you'll end up hitting one of them.

> You're assuming that the data collected is actually useful as a weapon,

No one is collecting your data for your benefit. It is always to benefit themselves at your expense. Every scrap of data that is taken from you will be leveraged against you or sold to someone else on the promise that it could be.

The reason there is a multi-billion dollar a year industry around buying and selling the most mundane aspects of your life is because it gives others huge advantages over you. It allows them to take more of your money, to punish you, to erode your ability to enact change, and to manipulate you into supporting positions favorable to them.

The data they collect allows them to do this no matter how inaccurate their assumptions about you are. You may not 'deserve' to be targeted by an extremist group who got your name and address from a data broker, but they'll still punish you for what they think you are or have done. You might not have as much money as your dossier suggests, but a store is going to raise their prices for you based on that data anyway while charging your neighbor less. You might not actually eat out as often, but your health insurance rates are still going up if the insurance company gets the wrong idea. You might not have actually been looking up rope, hacksaws, tarps, and duct tape on November 12th, but the police will still question you if they see it in your search history and will gladly throw you behind bars if they think you'll be easy to convict for the crime.

Ad Nauseam's approach fails to have any meaningful impact on the outcome. You'll still get abused and be taken advantage of, just sometimes it will be for the wrong reasons.

You can't always avoid giving any data away, but stuffing your dossier with more and more data (no matter how random or inaccurate) will always be worse for you.
It's just a different revenue model than the usual ad garbage. You don't have to use it.
My impression of the loneliness epidemic is that people only ‘choose’ to isolate once they have money and autonomy because it is easy, not because it is truly something they enjoy.

At least that’s true for me. Organising things socially and then participating in social events, with all the awkward moments and crappy small talk, is painful and at times daunting. But I know after it, I feel enriched and over time it builds strong relationships that add huge amounts of joy to my life. But as we have more and more excuses not to put ourselves through this, like endless Netflix or smart phones, we end up not doing it and feeling lonely.
I do know about this stuff which is why I know reasons for things instead of mindlessly repeating talking points. You explain to me why cheaper sources of energy led to high prices. If you can? May require thinking.

If you're using outrage to select science for what's pleasing to hear instead of what's true, you can use 1 as an explanation for 2. And 1 isn't exactly new.
In fact, there were even claims during the 2020 riots that "White silence is violence." See e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSVUrvnJFXs. That's right, even _not_ saying anything at all (including not parroting the expected slogans) is a direct act of violence.
Yes. Apparently this works differently in the US, but in any European country the ability to deduct currency is not governing the existence of an obligation of payment. That is determined by the (implicit) contract you agree to when subscribing to the service/product.

Perhaps what leads to small world networks?

> A small-world network is a type of mathematical graph in which most nodes are not neighbors of one another, but the neighbors of any given node are likely to be neighbors of each other and most nodes can be reached from every other node by a small number of hops or steps.

It's easy to support the creation of a monster when you're absolutely sure the monster will love you and tear your enemies to bits. But monsters aren't known for their loyalty.
I know the people behind statments like these are coming to it with extremly unintelligent and bad faith definitions and intentions, but the actual words are actually correct. If you had the option to delay humanity's discovery of atomic bombs to late 20th century or after, and therefore delay any substantial deep understanding of the atomic physics beneath, you would probably do it. If you had the atomic bomb, you probably wouldn't have shared it with Stalin's USSR or Hitler's Germany and, for that matter, Roosevelt's USA. If you had known in 1990 that the WWW would be used to spread propaganda and track dissidents, you would have probably liked to delay it till more security and decentralization is built in from the outset. This is a very well-discussed topic in philosophy of science and technology and good sci-fi.

Fermi was probably talking about inevitable things, e.g. if climate is already worsening beyond human limits it's always good to know even if it's too late to do anything. But if knowledge (or our pursuit of it) would lead to new dangers, its perfecly reasonable to (try) to limit knowledge and its spread or pursuit.

The dishonesty of the -ve IQ people behind attitudes like the criticized is that they see danger in everything and use moral panic to enforce views. If the actual "dangers" they are freaking out about are legitimate, they would have been justified to supress (non-violently) science and technology)
It seems like DuckDuckGo's raison d'etre is being "not Google". Personally, I don't care about these "evil tracking" where my screen size and user agent might get logged through some telemetry.

What I'd pay for in an email client is a way for it to help me sort through the giant stream of stuff I constantly receive.

For example when I buy something online I get 4 different email threads in Gmail: 1. order confirmation 2.it was shipped 3.it's arrived 4.fill up this survey

I want my email client to cluster all those into one. Basically sift through my crap and summarize what's important and delete the unimportant stuff because I hate having to constantly keeping my inbox tidy.
"Ask for a fix" is euphemism what often happens. It's commonplace to receive reports to the tune of:

* "Can we get an ETA on this? Some of us need to get real work done"
* "How you can justify leaving out such a basic feature?"
* "This project is unusable without this feature"
* "Why waste people's time by releasing software with bugs like this"
* "This kind of mistake is totally unprofessional"
* "The developers must not have the skill to fix this"

These sorts of interactions can be more exhausting than outright abuse, because they're designed to bait/provoke the developer rather than just insult them. And to be clear, this isn't particular to this developer. There was a whole study done on this that made the rounds awhile back[1].

Wait, you mean the person who got evicted from their house by the roommates (thrown out of the local trans community) and then killed themselves later that day? Also didn't they literally frame it as a protest of the current mental health system?

It seems very much like you've been reading fud from opportunistic people.. and from the sound of it some of the same people who threw Chloe under the bus the day it happened.
Could it have been an act of (frustrated) affection instead?
It's in beta, and they may not have built everything out; however, ios16 allows for small delta updates (rapid response) and has further packaged everything neatly.

As ios16 isn't out yet, I don't expect the features to be functional. They may not even ship full functionality for the .0 release, although they have added small allusions and options here and there.

They haven't talked about it much, although I expect we'll see a bigger announcement in the next few weeks.
It's not just working from home. How are singles supposed to meet when restaurants and bars are closed and people are ordered not to socialize in groups indoors, as happened during lockdowns? Women and especially men may resort to porn as an outlet.

What does ownership mean? Specifically.
The biggest key with the "green screen" terminals is they would NEVER EVER lose a keypress and they would buffer them, too.

So even if the computer was actually quite slow, if you knew what you were doing you could "type ahead" a few screens into the system, and then wander off and do something else.

That just doesn't work on GUIs (some rarely are well designed so that it can) and certainly has zero chance of working on webpages.
> this works differently in the US

No, it’s the same here. If you signed up with fake credentials with the intention of breaching the contract, it could be fraud.
I learned about Chez when Racket started their rewrite from C to Chez. Made me think why they don't just build Racket entirely in its self!

"Yet, people can be harmed indirectly. For example, research may — inadvertently — stigmatize individuals or human groups. It may be discriminatory, racist, sexist, ableist or homophobic."

If it's good research, then it shouldn't have any of these biases. Stigmatization and restrictions of rights is a policy issue. Science is not policy. I think we need to promote this separation more. Too often I see "but the study says this thing". Sure, that may be a scientific fact, but that doesn't mean it's the best thing for society, or even that it provides a complete picture of the issue.
The allies occupation of Iceland (officially neutral, but accepting of the de-facto situation) and defence of Greenland was informed by cryolite, which was needed for aircraft production. it's fictionalised in Peter Høeg's "Miss Smilla's feeling for snow" -But it was a very real strategic supply concern, with Greenland a protectorate of Denmark which was occupied by Axis forces, the Allies had very strong motivations to move.

Many rare earth resources exist. This stuff isn't about the end of the minerals/exhaustion of resources, it's about the cost of maintaining a supply chain when there is a least cost source in Russia or China, and then the political consequences of hollowing out the mining supply side, because of ignoring the strategic drives.

Australian rare earth mining sector is undergoing a mini-boom, especially lithium stocks. The main issue for me, is the need to stop sending raw minerals offshore and value-add onshore for exactly the same strategic drive.
I interviewed for a backend role and the problems were greatly simplified versions of day-to-day backend SWE work. For example, use a server to complete a task. The focus was on how you make the requests and handle any edge cases that might come up, and the server was actually live so you could tinker and get immediate feedback. Hopefully that’s not too vague :)

Edit: to be clear, the interview was live with an interviewer. So it wasn’t a take home in the scheduling sense either.

I agree that take homes can be simplified with your suggestions above, and that certainly makes a better experience for the candidate. The hybrid format is also great - future interviews become an extension of your previous work, so it’s more comfortable than having to context switch for a new challenging problem each round.

I didn’t find this in your linked database, but I also enjoyed GitHub’s take home. I only recall spending 45-90 minutes on it, and the setup process was seamless. A recent blog post describes their approach here: https://github.blog/2022-03-31-how-github-does-take-home-tec...
If privacy.com gets a subpoena from a court, do you think they would just ignore it, or would they dutifully hand over any details of whoever owned that credit card?
Left-wing is not collectivism, it's not low private property, it's not world domination, it's not poor. The NSDAP was highly collectivist - they all had to work together to build the master race, no? I imagine North Korea doesn't have very much private property.

The original right wing were monarchism apologists. Hitler's right wing set up a hierarchy based on race. Mussolini's right wing set up a hierarchy based on nationality, and later race, and was also explicitly collectivist, by the way, speaking of "the debacle of individualism" and "collaboration between the classes". And capitalism makes a hierarchy based on the number next to everyone's name in the bank's spreadsheet (which is also what a social credit score is, by the way). How many more examples do you want?

The right wing usually defines fairness as some kind of meritocracy based on the hierarchy du jour. For example the current right wing thinks it's fair that people with higher numbers get more stuff. Hitler thought it was fair the German empire would belong to Aryans. Mussolini wanted to expand the Italian empire. And the monarchism apologists thought it was fair that a king's children would have special rights. Sure, they support fairness, by defining it their way, in ways that most of us actually wouldn't call fair.
I thought Brave was just a web browser with built-in adblock, but after your comment I decided to look it up on wikipedia. Holey moley, what a nightmare.
Have you literally not used the password save feature in iOS? What about this password manager makes you think the people using it can duplicate the features using an offline version?
Very corporate-y, your addition of the trailing zero decimal digit.

Sorry for the useless comment :)
The numbers actually are not small. There were 42,000+ automobile deaths in the U.S. last year. This isn't a phenomenon of small numbers.
Huh. Maybe they have a row for each translated name too? 5x more due to that wouldn't be crazy.
I am sympathetic to the argument that much of natural intelligence is non-linguistic but it seems to me that people will be saying “this AI stuff can do some pretty cool tricks but it’s not real intelligence” while matrix multiplication surpasses human effort in the fields of art, poetry, rhetoric, literature.

Not sure about the existence of 10x engineers, but I'm quite certain of the existence of -10x engineers.
That is illegal and depending on the type of service not possible. A delivered and received email constitutes due notice in many European countries (perhaps not all, not sure), which is likely to reach you. But if it is possible, I guess they couldn't, unless they are very determined and manage to force your VPN or CC issuer to disclose.
Maybe. Doesn't change the silliness of people defending it without doing the least bit of investigation, which they would see by looking at the profile that the account claims to be a bot.

Edit: I replied before you edited your comment to point out the punctuation idiosyncrasies. Yeah I agree now, this guy must be LARPing as a bot.
I think you just hit bad luck because that hiring manager sounds like an idiot. I work for one of the largest American banks and like any other big company (like Github!) we have very competent people and less competent people as well - in terms of my PERSONAL estimation of competency, anyway.

Silver lining is it's good luck that you won't have to work with that team!
Some people are slow on the uptake. Better late than never, though.
That is a hilariously inaccurate explanation.

According to them, they would be unable to take the exam and therefore would not pass. Which means that the time and money spent on the course is wasted. Not coercive at all!
Cool! Thanks for sharing. There's always complex nuances to problems like this, it's interesting to see what the design considerations were and why this approach was taken.
whats the catch?
I always struggle sending that link to people, because only a certain kind of analytical brain can ignore the emotional weight of labels like "Sociopath" and "Loser" for 20k words. It is one of the most profound essays I've read about business. All models are wrong, but this one has been particularly useful to my career progression.

Apparently we needed to wait a decade to rename "Losers" as "Quiet Quitters."
Developers of newer versions of a system even if it is a migration from TUI to a Web GUI should really strive to maintain the shortcuts and hotkeys, an upgrade its suposed to be "that", extra functionality not a replacement of the existing one. Sadly there is this assumption that given it has a GUI there is no need of shortcuts or hotkeys, forcing users to use the mouse.

Gmail does provide some hotkeys and I think even those "few" ones really help, also Atlassian applications yet most web pages I have interacted with have none
Making everything state/public funded doesn't change how much it costs unless you have slaves working for free.
I don’t understand why people think the converse of “if you are not the customer, you’re the product” is true.

Contrapositive yes, converse no. Companies could still make money from both sides of a market. Look at the lack of net neutrality. Look also at how ISPs used to be able to sell your data, despite you paying them !

I think you are discounting the desires of others. I personally love having my little slice of land. Cooking for myself in my own kitchen. I don't mind a drive every couple of weeks to get some more food. I know all my neighbors and bbq with them occassionally. I don't wish to break up dense city culture, why do you want to break up my preferred suburban culture? Can't we live in peace rather than dumping on each other's life choices?
"Blind isn't an actual biological condition, it's a social category"

The same thing can be different categories. Black is social category, and is also a very well defined biological state of the most visible organ in your body, and is associated with certain genes. Instead of repeatedly stating the name of those different genes every time you say something about them, you can simply say the name of the most visible marker of them and still be correct the vast majority of time.
The team behind it also tried to keep the rest of IBM away from it, for fear that The Suits From Armonk would come in and ruin their product and their culture.
