The Holocaust is not the end all be all of what defines a genocide. The man who created the word wasn’t even trying to limit it to that when he was fleeing the Holocaust because he realized that there is more than one way to destroy a people even whilst the Germans were abjectly and mechanically destroying his people in a gruesome manner.

Here is Putin on the record in a speech he gave:

“ Putin said in a Monday speech: "Ukraine has never had its own authentic statehood. There has never been a sustainable statehood in Ukraine."

He argued that Ukraine was a creation of the Soviet Union under Vladimir Lenin, its first leader, despite extensive evidence of a distinctive Ukrainian culture before that.

Putin also made a claim that Ukraine was a part of Russia's historic territory.

He said in his speech: "Let me emphasize once again that Ukraine for us is not just a neighboring country. It is an integral part of our own history, culture, spiritual space.”

Here is the link for additional context including some nice words about having ties to Ukraine not dissimilar to what you just said: https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-denies-reviving-russia...

Maybe there is a cultural dissonance here and what Putin said means something completely different in Russian, but this to me reads as someone walking a fine line trying very hard not to admit that his goal is to erase Ukraine and the Ukrainian people as distinct from Russia and the Russian people. That was in February two days before launching a full scale invasion of Ukraine, and I don’t trust that the “official” reasons are the real ones. Putin is former KGB: deceiving foreigners and citizens alike is literally his bread and butter.
The opening of that ad backfired by making me nostalgic for the earlier, more decentralized Internet that I accessed via dialup as a teenager. The good news is that lots of sites and services still can run just fine on a single dedicated server, as they did back then, especially since some dedicated server providers (like OVHcloud) have DDOS protection. So while Cloudflare's marketing efforts sometimes succeed in making me excited about your products (as I'm afraid you can see from my other recent comments), I think I'll continue to resist the further centralization of the Internet under big providers like Cloudflare.
By labeling it, the human condition is further being commoditized. With taking a therapeutic approach, part of our wellbeing is now yet a little more objectified, can be assigned a market place value, and becomes interchangeable (two months of therapy online vs one month of therapy in person vs a weekend in vegas vs a new jacket). As a commodity, it can now be captured by branding and marketing as well.

This sort of reification of, well, everything, is absolutely relentless and been ongoing for 150 years now. Even if we do recognize it, which people have for just as long, we keep getting warned about it, it seems we are also completely powerless to stop this process.
And Lithuania, bordering Kaliningrad which is a - highly militarised - Russian enclave bordering Poland and Lithuania.
I don’t understand why people are so up in arms about Cloudflare being a MITM, but not e.g. AWS API Gateway being a MITM.
Lex's podcast always makes for a solid listen. Thanks for sharing!
I watched 'A Trip to Infinity' last night on Netflix and it touched on this part as well! Everything eventually spreads out so far away from everything else, that things burn out/die out in a very final kind of way. Its kind of sad, but also mostly irrelevant since we will long be gone by then(well, as far as we know!)
re: self hosting,

I'm curious on the use cases for self hosting? Ie i have a heavy interest in self hosting. I also find workerd very interesting. Though i'm struggling to think of reasons why i'd build my apps around workerd instead of just a process.

If i was dedicated to WASM, Perhaps workerd might be a better solution than wasmer, unsure.
Defintely something that is better than studying grammar !
> Finally, the reason people do this kind of fraud is because they won't get in if they stay honest. If you actually need development services, does it actually have to be an employee? Maybe you can just be open to contractors or outsourcing agencies, let them in "honestly" with appropriate contract terms that protect both sides, and then it reduces the incentive for the "fake" employees to lie to you if they can get in legitimately.

What kind of argument is that? These people aren’t trying to get on 1099 and sure as shit won’t be good, honest contractors either.
This looks like a good idea, but is the wire getting hot enough? Does the rosin work to dissolve the oxidization on the wire when the solder is being melted and sucked in by surface tension, as opposed to being melted by the wire directly? I could conceive of the rosin all ending up on the surface of the blob using this technique, not touching the wires.
it's sad that they didn't go the same way than fastly which actually use a wasm runtime even for javascript by compiling spidermonkey to wasm: https://github.com/fastly/js-compute-runtime
I think thats way more clever than having a mixed runtime.
and they use wizer to make it more performant.
This is utterly creepy. Kudos to the college kid who did the right thing here.

I've never had anyone try to impersonate me for a job, but I have had people steal my photos and create Tinder profiles using them in cities I don't live in (I've been alerted because people who recognized me sent me screenshots). I tried to catfish the person who was using my photos to catfish others, but was unsuccessful. I dreamed of doing what Connor did, which was to confront the person who was using my face on a video call.

I'm so sorry this happened to Connor but am grateful he documented this sort of scam, which I fear is probably a lot more common than we know. I see people on TikTok all the time encouraging these sorts of outsourcing scams of taking jobs on Upwork or something else and then hiring people to do the work on Fiver or in markets where the cost of labor is much, much lower. Do this with enough volume and you could make decent money, I imagine.

But how utterly distasteful for the victim.
Windows ARM64 works great, with (similar to macOS) transparent support for x64 programs. Successful or not, I don't see any problem with the software.
On the right track, but the core idea is:

Glo is a stablecoin that crypto investors/regular folks buy that generates returns for people living in poverty.

Glo gives money away through GiveDirectly, so the recipients get the money in their local currency.

It isn't "simply talking" there is a whole lot of quid pro quo going on with arrangements for cushy jobs in the future and more flagrant gift giving.
I am director of engineering / cofounder at a company called Starry (wireless ISP).

To be fair, I wouldn't call this a "problem" insofar as it doesn't cause any meaningful pain apart from extra noise in the funnel. Given how poor the signal-to-noise ratio is in most hiring funnels, the impact is more or less de minimis.

I do still review every submission, at least in a cursory way, just in case the candidate has other legitimate experience and/or novel work on the github they link to.

It's not that they did the background subtraction in a non-standard way, it's that they didn't have a measurement of the background to subtract (it being too hard to measure directly), so they instead estimated what the background would look like and subtracted that. Some of their peers are claiming their estimate is bad, but the researchers are sticking by it.

Txtai 5.0 released – build semantic search applications and workflows
For me, the breakthrough was getting a thermostat controlled soldering iron. Suddenly I could make perfect joints every time.
And they all have 500+ connections. Bet they're scraping profiles or some crap.
If that's what you need multiverse for, then it's perfectly compatible with our current understanding of the big bang to claim that it is without any beginning and that it was expanding and expanding from smaller and smaller thing forever.

Both theories equally non falsifiable and make use of infinity.

I hope the one taking the lead for which features need to be built is the product owner and not the project manager.
txtai 5.0 is a major new release. This release adds the semantic graph along with enabling external integrations. It also adds a number of improvements and bug fixes.

Infinity is infinitely big. Conversely, it also must be infinitely small, almost nonexistent. Because, in order to be infinite, it must contain everything, including all concepts that are contradictory.

So it ends up in the eternal philosophizing of many esoteric schools and religions: Infinity is the ultimate balance, tranquility, that is totally inert and irrelevant to outside because it contains all the contradictions inside itself in a balancing, canceling-out fashion.

But...

Infinity must also be the total opposite of that in order to be infinite - it must be the total opposite of infinitely balanced too. Again canceling out any description and defying identification.

So it all begins and ends in mystery.

Then again, it also must not be mysterious in order to be truly infinite, so...
Using the word "Slavic" is wrong here. You probably meant ex-USSR countries. PL, CZ, SK are also as slavic as it gets but nobody here uses VK.
You shouldn't really lap solder wires to boards. They tend to pull the pads off the boards or crack. Better to use wire to board connectors or solder terminals.
Oh, I'd be so in to take part in this drama. It would probably be one of the most memorable job interviews of all time.

And I doubt there would be too many legal or corporate ramifications from allowing someone else to be on the call with their camera off. These are contractor positions, not full-time. Frankly, it's a risk I would take to be able to witness this sort of thing in real-time.

Sabotage suspected after unexplained leaks found on major Russian gas pipelines
I meant existential stuff like this: "I am frustrated by the ongoing war that could have been easily prevented and seeing friends dying every day, including your family, just to increase amount of green paper in somebody's pockets; this doesn't cheer me up. The thought how helpless I am in the face of this is crushing me. I won't even be able to understand my own life, nobody around me will reach their true potential and will be just left to slowly die. All you can give me is just a short-term band-aid we both understand won't change anything." You can go arbitrarily deep to make the therapist question their standing in life depending on their sensitivity.
Totally understandable. More options are better anyways.
Growing indifference to relationships and sex in Japan
I doubt a typical person can describe the effect of one ton of TNT with any accuracy. I'll give it a try though: 2 meter deep and 6 meter wide crater in typical soil, death due to shockwave out to 150m, death likely due to shrapnel out to 300m, buildings destroyed out to 300m, audible from 10 km.

From here: https://unsaferguard.org/un-saferguard/blast-damage-estimati...

26 meters fatal distance, 83 or 142 meters buildings destroyed

My estimates are more appropriate for a 20-30 ton explosion, it seems.
> - The biggest and most obvious is that they don't have a functioning webcam that clearly shows who they are. If I encounter this, the interview ends immediately.

I get this. I also just did like 10 rounds of interviews and between google meets, zoom, teams, phone calls, I would say there was a 50% failure rate of somebody on the call having a non working webcam or another issue.

I actually missed an opportunity at a job because the HR lady was bizarrely inflexible. I called, no answer, teams, couldn't let me in because of org permissions, yada yada. At some point I had rescheduled for the third time and just replied "look, I don't know what the issue is, but I will be happy to do an in-person interview". Never got a call back.

So... tech problems do exist. I am on a phone call with a client right now who spent 10 minutes trying to get a screen share working. What can I do?

Great compilation, really like the guests, specially Peter Wang.
Somebody really needs to explain the law of supply and demand to these people.

They propose to invest 7% of all the money in the world in US Treasury bills and use the interest to eliminate poverty.

Of course if they came anywhere near that goal interest rates on T-Bills would plummet.
The latter. If you typed `docker ps` on your host there would be nothing showing up. The application is running inside of a micro VM.

It should also be noted that containerized processes that are running on a host will still show up on the host's process tree if you look at the output of `ps`, `htop` or similar commands. Containers aren't real boundaries, just namespaces on the host machine. This is the not the case when using Ignite, as the process from the container image is running in an actual micro VM, rather than running on the host inside of a namespace
Theres no money in reducing the amount of cars on the road. There's no money in solving societies problems in general - who would pay for it?
Another reason would be to disincentivize another faction from deposing Putin. No secret that oligarchs have been dying left and right. Putin could have done this to remove the appeal of replacing him and going back to pre-war "normal" if they can't resume selling gas.
Really cool on a technical level, but part of me thinks good lord, is anyone out there working on making the web simpler instead of more complicated and magical?
The pipeline operation would require rich individuals, presumably educated, a fortiori if they are so invested in ecology. Do you think they would release millions of tons of CO2-equivalent of methane in the air?

Moreover they would need a large team to prepare and execute the op.

No-one on the team would say like "hu? isn't it a bit destroying that what we are fighting for?". Don't you think at least a dozen of potential whistleblowers would pop up into existence and the whole project aborted?

So, no, my verdict is that all of that is so unlikely. I'm trying very hard to not say ridiculous but... oops.
Is fraud actually being prosecuted reliably?

My observation given the vast amount of financial fraud occurring everywhere (with a paper trail), fraud is one of those things that's only selectively prosecuted when you piss off someone powerful enough or with the right connections.

Even if we assume fraud actually starts being prosecuted seriously, I'd assume the astronomical quantity of financial fraud out there would take priority over a relatively little amount of employment/candidate fraud.
I mean I'm not objecting to that necessarily, more the idea that you should share your mental state with your employer, or complete strangers on the internet and this is healthy and good (destigmatize mental illness). I don't particularly think it is, and perhaps it's healthier to have the employer/employee relationship or the internet creator/consumer remain at some distance. Your employer and audience are not your friends or family.
Having money in the Peruvian countryside is not going to make up for QoL because the infrastructure just isn't there. 40% of the households in rural areas don't even have electricity. No chance for clean drinkable water or insulated housing.
Late last year we had a candidate who seemed really promising: she had a CS degree from an Ivy League school and had a few years of work experience using relevant technologies.

She absolutely killed the Byteboard technical assessment, and seemed like a good cultural fit during my initial screen. I advised the technical interviewer that he didn't need to go too deep; I was satisfied with her answers on the technical assessment. Then something odd happened - she completely bombed the interview. The interviewer told me that she couldn't even answer the most basic questions e.g. "what tech stack does your employer use?" I was thoroughly confused about that, but still passed her on to the VPE to help us get to the bottom of the discrepancy. Our VPE confirmed the previous technical interviewer's assessment.

We came to the conclusion that she could not have completed the technical assessment on her own and obviously didn't move forward from there.
He’s literally as close as you get though. His opponent once got disconnected in an online tournament, and magnums resigned the next game bc he didn’t want his opponent to be unfairly penalized.
I can't help but think about how this'll end up helping AMD in the long run.

If enough people wait until October 20th before deciding what to get, then demand for AMD will be a little lower, so any shortages won't be as bad or there won't be shortages.

For the holiday season, AMD will have already primed their supply channels, whereas Intel will just be starting. While 13th gen Intel can be used in 12th gen motherboards and therefore people can buy motherboards earlier in preparation, people who really care about performance are going to want the newer Z790 motherboards, even if the differences are minimal. And I don't think anyone who cares about performance is going to spend all that money to upgrade a current 12th gen system to 13th gen, so availability of Z790 motherboards will be an issue.

Whatever happens, it'll be good for consumers. An Intel release usually means less expensive AMD hardware.

This is something that really worries me about current automotive trends. Carmakers tend to assume a 10-year lifespan for their vehicles, though last I saw the average age of cars on the road in the US is slightly higher than that[0]. My current car is approaching 30 and I'm planning to replace it with something closer to 10-15 in the near future, old enough to avoid touchscreens and new enough to not be destroyed by rust (yet).

With vehicles incorporating more technology, I'm concerned they might stop lasting long enough for rust to be an issue. Tech companies have already perfected a model of planned obsolescence. If cars start becoming obsolete and unusable as fast as tech products do, they won't have a chance to depreciate enough for me to afford one.

Diagonalization might be a tricky topic for beginners, but that is also who we teach it to. It is usually in your introduction to mathematical proofs class, and even there it is taught in the first couple of weeks.

There is an additional problem with the argument as written, as there are in fact "relations" on the "decimal expansions" of real numbers. for instance .099... = .1000....

Notice that none of the places in this expansion agree with each other so this might indeed be the element you construct from the following list:

`.1000...
.0100...
.0010...
...`

You might say, ok well pick a number different from a_i and also different from 0 or 9, which does indeed get you a number not in your list, but it really begs the question of "why doesn't this work in binary?", and is also far less intuitive than factoring the problem into two steps of |N|~=|P(N)|=|R|. This approach is more general anyway.
I know what is a difference between Go and Rust, but again - it's not only about the raw speed. I welcome you to try to code an async application in assembler...
Glad I'm not the only one. I tracked the uptick in interview offers using this method, and it was nearly 4x more. Only one recruiter seemed to notice, and gave me a dressing for it. In my eyes, play stupid games, win stupid prizes (me).
I don’t think he necessarily has to be god level. This has been talked about ad nauseum but it’s not that hard to cheat just a little to gain significant advantage. Security has been lax at these events and there are numerous examples of cheating at the top level of many sports and throughout chess history. It’s definitely not that outrageous to see the possibility. Rapid and classical are different games that require different skill sets. He is definitely strong regardless which I think most people agree on. So you may have a point that he should still be able to have better analysis than what he showed. Especially if it’s a classical game where you have been thinking and calculating deeply for 2 hours. Perhaps the analysis was whack exactly because he wasn’t thinking and calculating deeply in these critical positions as magnus suggests in his statement.

None of us know for sure and it’s all speculation at this point. He could be trolling. He could be cheating. At some level he lied in his apology interview. He has not acknowledged the statement chess.com made in which they accused him of lying and cheating more often and more recently than he admitted. There’s just a lot of suspicion and sometimes where there’s smoke there is fire. My guess is he is a strong grandmaster that desperately wanted to be a super gm and took some shortcuts to get there.
