There is a philosophy that has propagated recently that ‘it can’t hurt to ask’. I’m guessing this comes from popular self help gurus. I once fielded of a lot of questions from these people due to a job I had and it is incredibly annoying. I had to start being rude to people. I can only imagine how much worse it would be to be an attractive female.
Well, we can wag our fingers at Europe for engaging with Russia, but North America did the same with China.

And for Europe, it's not simply hubris though. There's multiple things at work. When the United States or Canada says to Europe: Don't buy energy from Russia, what Europeans legitimately heard was: Buy energy (at more cost and logistical challenge) from us instead.

Meanwhile Canada especially -- but likely the US as well -- was very much focused on building infrastructure for trade with the Pacific Rim, not Europe. So what other choice did Europe realistically have anyways?

I'm mad at hell at successive Canadian governments (what I'm most familiar with) who prioritized trade with China (or bulk exports to the US without value add). At the expense of the domestic market/infrastructure, at the expense of developing renewables, and at the expense of our European allies. Insanely short term thinking. An LNG facility on the St Lawrence would be real nice right now. Instead a massive LNG facility is being built for coastal British Columbia, and pipeline infrastructure being set up for that. Wrong coast it turns out because China will be perfectly happy to import from Russia instead. But again, all eyes on China, despite the risks that entailed, which are similar to the risks that western Europe had with Russia.

But a private capital monopoly is how this happened with gas stations in the first place!

Esso stations, still found all over the US, come from the name “Standard Oil” - “SO”.

It took the Sherman Antitrust act and government intervention for the economics of a decentralized system to make sense. https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/337/293

If past is preamble, we should expect a monopoly of crappy charging experiences followed by trust busting and regulation that make a decentralized system possible.

In my uninformed opinion I see a Wild West of taking the risk to find the right charging standards and business model, with a terrible user experience. But that is how many industries have gone before too.
As someone responsible for volunteer coordination for a non-profit, I don't want to deal with people who aren't there due to passion for our mission. I actually developed conflict management training for volunteer coordinators of a certain non-profit that used a lot of college age volunteers who were generating a lot of drama due to their in-dating.
Go build it then!
Yeah this appears to be the point in which one would get caught out.

Not sure if this applies to where you've run interviews, but hypothetically speaking, if a candidate lied or embellished their resume to get past the initial HR/ATS hurdle (often a poor judge of tech skills), but then came clean in the first formal interview, would you be willing to give them a chance to prove themselves, or would this generally lead to the "no hire" situation?
Models are just applied statistics?
> but Javascript jumped the shark at some point

Contemporary frontend, in-browser app development, you mean. JS is a programming language. By conflating a language with a particular culture of software development, you implicitly transfer more power to that culture, the people in it, and their practices, even though your message expresses a clear desire for the opposite.
I've twice signed up for dating apps and had the exact same experience you have. I do not like trying to prove how worthwhile I am in two sentences. I deleted them within 24 hours. Disgust was a great word choice.

I'm 39 and single, although I have decent success offline when I expend any effort.

The women who I've dated in real life--I'm pretty sure they'd all ignore me on the dating app. Phrased differently, I find the women I've actually dated far more attractive (not only physically) than any who will engage with me online.
I think, like you said, the comment needs refinement, but I get the point.

Basically, if you lean against regulation, clever/imaginative/quality building will flourish, but the price you have to pay is that cheap/shoddy building will flourish, too.

The problem for me is that even though I can see the tradeoffs associated with regulation, it's difficult to determine where to set the regulatory "dial." And even if I could set that metaphorical dial with confidence, not everyone will agree with me. :-(
My top pick.
Pulling the ladder up behind us, as wealthy nations, will not be accepted by developing nations as well as those still in abject poverty.
Paying user of Kagi here. I recommend it to all my friends. They have a family plan on the roadmap which is great for me. I have left Google search altogether and never looked back.

Over time I have managed to block most of the websites which annoy me the most from the results. For example I have blocked w3schools and boosted MDN or the annoying ads disguised as blogs or websites which pollute the search results by mere SEO enhancements.
The frustration builds when you're waiting in line for the communal shower.

At my local gym, there were 12 communal showers, but it was common for a class to be scheduled with an end time at 6:00 or 6:30 on the dot, so in addition to the steady traffic from the pool, weight room, or the ergs, you'd have a sudden exodus of 20 or 30 guys (or 50 in January) all waiting in line for showers so we could get to work on time. Then (in spite of signs prohibiting phone use in the locker rooms) people started using their phones for messaging/emails, usually conspicuously held within the locker or otherwise aimed so that they couldn't be used for photos...then they converted the showers to 8 private cubicles.

Even with 8 instead of 12, it was no big deal if people were taking 3 minutes to rinse off the sweat. Whether you left at 6:33, 6:36, or 6:39 was not a problem. But if 10 or 20% of people were treating the shower like a sauna, luxuriating in the steam until their fingers and toes got wrinkly, throughput went down the drain along with those gallons and gallons of hot water... you might have to wait until 7:00 to take a shower after your 6:30 spin class.

Putting a lightswitch which had a 10-minute timer outside the cubicle, plus a sign urging users to conserve water and take showers shorter than 5 minutes, was a big improvement. However, lots of people would do everything they could to minimize perceived awkward nakedness in the communal showers, getting clean in record time, but feel no such pressure in a cubicle.
Part of the art world is trying to understand what the artist means, sometimes there's a deeper meaning and sometimes not, and that's part of the fun of art interpretation. You just have to try to fine tune your BS alert.
Again, in order to affect the TM's execution time, the "proof difference" must have a first step where your TM with CH takes a different step than the one without CH does. There can be no such first step. There is no room in the TM specification for that. It doesn't matter what you prove or don't prove, the TM "with CH" and the TM "without CH" must take the exact same steps.

You are messing up proof vs. truth. Your proof doesn't affect how long a TM runs for. Your axioms do not affect how long the TM runs for. Show me, in the state table of the TM, where the CH or any other axiom you use for analysis affects the truth table or the execution time of the TM. No amount of analysis can change how many steps a TM runs for. The numbers may be large, but they are finite and completely determined. The only thing it can affect is whether you can know the number, but the number exists regardless.

Even more concretely: Show me how your choice of axioms affects BB(4). Show me how it affects the number of steps, without redefining BB. Forget CH; take any axiom you like... for the analysis. Just don't affect the TM itself; that's a given for you. Take anything else you like and show me how it changes the BB(4) number. You can't. You can easily take axioms that will produce a wrong result; most notably we could just take as an axiom that BB(4) = -4. The resulting analysis will show that BB(4) is -4. It will also be wrong.
> views usually espoused by people who have never, and will never work a job that could be dangerous

Have you ever been on a construction site, shipyard, pit mine, etc.?

They're stuck in the mud doing "everybody stand back" shit that isn't technically against the rules with a port-a-power because it's the least worst option and your ilk has the gall to come along and lecture that a 5-gal bucket isn't for standing on. It should come as no surprise that there's push-back.

More generally, the people who are actually subject to workplace injury are the ones complaining and they are not complaining about safety. They are complaining about you and your misguided attempts to "help" them. They are complaining that people like you saddle them with asinine policy that lacks nuance thereby making their jobs more difficult and less fulfilling than they were previously albeit marginally safer. Such policy routinely optimizes for reducing some trivially measurable source of danger while completely ignoring the fundamental dangers of the job. Policies like "no more box cutters", "no more step stools, step ladders for everything", "PPE all the time, even when everything is off and people are eating lunch" routinely come down the pipe from corporate HR or OH&S but you ask these types for a second truck crane or whatever to save everyone's back or a plasma cutter so gas cylinders don't need to be carted around as much and they act like you just threw a puppy into a wood chipper. No wonder these policies and their purveyors are held in low regard by the people on the ground.

Unfortunately, the people getting screwed are not necessarily the best versed in the ins and outs of organizational policy, management theory and whatnot so their complaints are not very well articulated. This brings us right back to the titular complaint of the article...

I tried many search engines, but I always ended up going back to Google for many queries. Kagi it's the first one that I really feel like Google doesn't add anything any more. Sometimes if I can't find something I will try google, but I never actually got better results, which means my query was just bad.

I am just so happy with Kagi I can't explain. I am not a huge fan of subscriptions and I carefully curate what I pay for monthly. I love paying for Kagi! I wish them only the very best!
The same metals are available. One of the theories for nodule formation on the seabed floor is that they start from kernels deposited by astroid impacts in the ocean. These same impacts in the moon form craters with more than half of the impactor preserved in the central peak of the crater.
Sorry I missed the "/s". I was just trying to sympathize with any engineer being asked to compete with the m1.
Your question sounds like a troll, but it's actually a fascinating one. Reminds me so much of reading Descartes and essentially asking, "How do I know I'm not asleep and dreaming?"
I would really love to use Kagi full-time. I'm currently on DDG, but something about them that I can't quite put my finger on rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's the amount they apparently spend on advertising, or maybe it's that they're just sourcing their results from Bing.

Anyway, at $10/mo I’m not quite prepared to put my money where my mouth is. $5/mo would be much more attractive, and I would guess they'd have better profit at that price. How much does each user cost them?

Edit: Thanks everyone for the pricing info! I guess in a world where we expect search engines to be free, we don't realize how expensive they actually are to run (at least at smaller scales like Kagi).

Intuitively I would have expected the expensive part to be building the index and for each query to cost fractions of a cent. I am extremely surprised to learn that each query apparently costs them $0.125.
In the uk here,. I'm lucky that I don't have to often check my bank account to see the balance. But boy, I am not looking forward to the winter, the government is paralysed and doesn't seem to be doing anything, when the new PM start I don't expect things to get resolved. When I moved house I didn't even have any supplier options as no one was taking new customers, I didn't even get asked how I'd like to pay, I'm straight-up paying for the full usage each month. I have no idea how those on lower incomes are going to cope.
If you only know one language you're a technician, not a programmer. If you only know one paradigm of languages you're a technician, not a programmer.

If that sounds harsh to you or you have some sort of negative emotional reaction to that then you're way too personally invested and should probably go have some tea or a little lie down.

There's nothing wrong with being a technician. It's a useful and valuable role.

The confusion between programmers and technicians, though, leads to a lot of wasted time and effort. If you hire a technician when you really need a programmer you're gonna have a bad time. If you hire a programmer when all you really need is a technician they will eventually leave (if you're lucky the technicians you hire to replace them will be able to understand what they wrote.)

Because of all the confusion, it's possible to hire young and inexperienced programmers and pay them and treat them like technicians, but it can be tricky to differentiate them. (The big FAANG outfits just hire everybody and only promote the programmers, but you probably can't afford to do that.)

I had an argument with my mother about this. I had the obvious thermodynamic argument. Maintaining a gradient costs energy, heat flow is proportional to difference. So obviously let the house heat up and then set the timer to cool off about an hour before you think youll be home.

She said some nonsense about the a/c "working harder". She simply didn't have good physical intuition or training and couldn't be persuaded.

People make the same crappy arguments about the food you eat. They say, "CICO can't be right" but like, how could it possibly be wrong.

> Orion is zero-telemetry by default so auto-updates are disabled by default

This is a very surprising choice. I'm also leaning towards the side of irresponsible. Web browsers are probably the biggest attack surfaces users have. They are running untrusted code thousands of times a day. That isn't even counting all of the other attack surfaces such as HTML rendering, media decoding and playing, WebGPU type stuff and more. The stream of vulnerabilities has been constant so far and there is no evidence that the stream is over.

If this was my product I would disable everything but auto-updates, and make a clear policy about what data I track on update downloads.

Location: Revelstoke, Canada <-> Costa Rica

Remote only: 10+ years experience

Technologies : C, C++, SIMD, OpenGL, JS, TS

Interests : compilers, language runtimes, GC, graphics, 3D, 2D, performance, compression, streaming

Hello, my name is Jesse. I'm looking to solve hard technical problems. Examples of fields that interest me are genetics, developer tooling (compilers and static analyzers really get me going), 3D graphics, data streaming.

I'm a competent C and C++ programmer. The C++ spec weighs a lot, so I'm hesitant to call myself an expert, but I have a good working knowledge of both languages. I've recently been writing a C++11-ish compiler frontend so I'm pretty familiar with that portion of the compilation pipeline.

I've also been working on the foundations of a 3D game engine for ~6 years, which has taught me a great deal about systems and graphics programming. It compiles on both Windows and Linux. I chose to build it without libraries (Handmade Hero style) which began as a learning exercise, but ended up teaching me the value of simplicity.

I've also done a significant amount of web development, having started my career as a web-dev. I would consider joining a web development shop with a compelling team and product.

In more recent history I've been working on a metaprogramming system for C. Think C++ templates, but fast to compile and much more powerful. It turns out I have a passion for compilers. I'm also actively contributing to Oil, a new bash runtime and POSIX compliant shell.

Lastly, I'm a systems programmer at heart. I love having direct access to the CPU and needing to understand the hardware architecture, as opposed to the internals of an interpreter, to write well-working and well-performing code. I strive to understand the core of what I'm working on.

That's the cliff-notes on my technical background. As a person I'm friendly and easy to get along with. I like the phrase "Have strong opinions, weakly held". Outside of work I enjoy surfing, backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, rock-climbing and beer! I split my time between Revelstoke, Canada and Costa Rica.
