You demand evidence, implicitly, but give none ... calling something revisionist (suggesting purposeful misleading, ie lying) without any backup is, um, a bit unfriendly. Maybe it was just that people in projects I came across followed that pattern of share-and-share-alike?

>Even today, I rarely see OSS project leaders actually saying they expected all users to give back something //

I've never seen it _demanded_ of anyone. Also, I think it largely went away in the early 2000s, as more, varied licenses came online bringing OSS a much broader base.

Pay-it-forward seemed to be a growing movement across society (well before Oprah latched on to it) but particularly on the 'net/burgeoning web. I used Slackware as my primary and got a lot of code from Sourceforge as well as using Debian and RedHat packages later.

Perhaps it was our approach [my, and other people with this impression]. That the first [and only] FOSS license I heard of was GPL, that the movement rallied (to my recollection) around that banner and so the idea of giving back was embedded -- I'm not a programmer. My self-apportioned part early on was to share Linux, help people with compilations and installs; act as a helper and advocate I suppose. It wasn't an explicit obligation, maybe it comes from transactional thinking having grown up in a Western Capitalist society under right wing governments?

[I'll have a dig around for some sources if I get chance.]
I think I've had my camera on once the entire time I've been remote in ~5 years at my organization, and the same for 90% of my colleagues. I understand the need to ensure the person on the meeting is the person hired, but is this really how it is elsewhere? Everyone wants to see everyone else?
Actually nope; it does look as if the 35 year limit applies to licenses since the wording is "licenses and grants", whereas copyright transfers are a separate topic. It requires a grantee, though. Which is like I wrote before.

> Even if there were a doctrine that existing redistributors were grandfathered forever, so they could continue making copies and giving it away, the license would not actually be available to the recipients, who are not existing licensees.

Well, that doctrine is there: if you grant someone a copyright license and they take you up on it, they have 35 years before you can revoke it, in the United States.

It's not clear that third parties continue to have the same privilege after you indicate that the license is no longer available to new licensees.
I don't quite know.

It feels as if there's some deep structural aspects to the rationals that get casually tossed to the side in order to shoehorn them into integer indices.
That comment seems pretty damning. Maybe it would help your point to link rebuttal.

Some crypto, like proof of stake, yes. Other crypto is based on proof of work.
> So if you had a friend visit and say he was going to kayak down the San Joaquin you would tell that's a good idea while the state is facing a massive drought?

I have no idea what that has to do with my comment.

In any case, whether people kayak on water that's already flowing out to sea has just about zero bearing on the drought.

Wall Street to Pay $1.8B in Fines over Traders’ Use of Banned Messaging Apps
I knew immediately it's Upwork. This is extremely common on there. The main reason is because developers in Western countries can demand higher rates. Just watch out for the red flags: mismatching LinkedIn experience, no camera during interview, incorrect accent, etc. Don't trust the reviews because accounts are routienly shared and/or sold.

I've had some fun with this before where a developer with a clearly Chinese accent, and of course no webcam, posed as German (mispronouncing his own name) and freaked out when I switched to conducting the interview in German. Of course I notified the person whose identity he stole and reported the profile to Upwork, but it's a drop in the bucket of the scams.

Uses machine learning. The research paper: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.22.21257615v...

Per the Washington Post:

> If you need the convenience of ultra-processed foods, you can check labels and comparison shop. Try to pick the products with the fewest ingredients. For help while shopping, you can pull up a website on your phone called truefood.tech. On the site you can type in a food that you want to buy — such as chicken nuggets or breakfast cereal — and in response the site will show you dozens of brands and recommend the least processed versions. The site uses machine learning to rank foods on a scale of 1 to 100 based on factors such as how many additives they contain and their degree of processing. The lower the score the better.

> The site was created by Giulia Menichetti and Albert-László Barabási, two scientists at Northeastern University who study ultra-processed foods and developed a database of over 50,000 foods sold in grocery stores. You may be surprised by the wide variation in processing among different types of macaroni and cheese or that your favorite organic gluten-free chicken nuggets score higher than a standard recipe.

Yeah? I think almost everyone would?

Java is interpreted in many ways, and compiled in many ways, as I said it's complicated. It's compiled to bytecode, which is interpreted until it's time to be compiled... at which point it's abstract interpreted to a graph, which is compiled to machine code, until it needs to deoptimise at which point the metadata from the graph is interpreted again, allowing it to jump back into the original interpreter.

But if it didn't have the JIT it'd always be an interpreter running.

Does the universe even support infinity at absolute precision? If the data of an interim number used to calculate infinity, and that number could be represented by the using the smallest physical particle possible, said number would be limited to the size of the universe at a given time and the number of these hypothetical particles that could exist at said given time. In other words, the only things that can exist within the universe are things the universe is complex enough to support. There's nothing about the physical universe that suggests it can support anything remotely infinite. Infinity as a concept is handy for mathematics, but that's because we're not even close to being capable of calculating infinity to absolute precision (one reason why "Infinity" in programming languages is really just magic).

If infinity was an actual number (having a size), it would need to be extrauniversal unless it was possible for us to calculate it to the extent required, which has yet to be seen. The only candidate we have for proof that infinity exists is that the amount of time academics can spend pondering on infinity seems infinite.

I’d love to know what housing associations you know of that do regular proactive maintenance. My family has decades of experience as tenants and I can’t agree at all. I feel they do the complete opposite - hope that only fixing when things break be the cheaper option.

Any regular checks they are a complete farce and on many occasions have actually broken things, especially regarding boilers (I wish I were joking)

I do agree good money is being made on maintenance. The service is sold, it just doesn’t properly get carried out

The people they send round to fix things are bluntly thick as shit and often damage more than they fix
In the UK, it's required by law to confirm the applicant has the right to work in the country [1] - which means checking photo ID, and confirming photos are the same across all documents and look like the applicant.

If that hadn't been done, it's a failing of the hiring process.

However, the ID check would usually be done by someone in HR after the hiring decision had been made, and exchanging photos of applicants is not the norm. So I suppose you could send someone competent to the tech interviews, and swap in the incompetent person at the ID check.

I strongly dislike this perspective and find it naive. It is similar to saying Mac is more secure than Windows. WhatsApp is a huge target compared to Telegram.

I guarantee you if we all switched to Telegram nothing would change, and I would bet money these exploits boil down to open source libraries which are commonly used in these apps.

It does not pay to be high browed with security. Even Chrome, with all its investment into security, gets pwned on a regular basis.
There is a big difference between some replacement parts and having all of the major components replaced multiple times.
Take a look at Small Red Delicious v. Large Red Delicious. Nowadays you can only find large's, and larges used to be "mealy and icky", while the small red delicious were wonderful. Everybody dunks on Red Delicious apples, but I've tended to like them when they're firm and crisp. There's lots of other varieties around and I haven't found a new consistent favorite yet, but glad to see such an systematic overview of apples! :-)
Deliberately reducing the number of platforms that are accessible from the outside world is what gives the regime MORE leverage, not less. If you take Russians offline, you're just submerging them into state-run TV.

If you let them stay on VKontakte, you let them have more exposure to covert American media campaigns. In the cold war, a huge source of information for people east of the Berlin wall was Radio Free Europe, which was a covert media campaign.

Russians do not have access to just switch to other platforms on a whim the way you seem to think they do. Banning VKontakte from the app store is not going to encourage them to move to a platform like Facebook in a country where people disappear when they circumvent the country's blocks on foreign social media. It's much more analogous to destroying the radios of the Eastern Europeans during the cold war so they can't access any outside news at all.

But the people giddy for the collapse of tech are going to be thrilled!

The tech bubble continues to persist because people don't know where else to put their money. The tech bubble started because of the 2008 crash, investors needed a place to park their cash to see it grow, and tech seemed the best bet. That plus cheap capital meant throwing everything into tech no matter how ridiculous the fundamentals were.

If this is really a trend we'll see the expedited crash of tech as money floods into manufacturing.

I've been through enough cycles to develop an even more detached/depersonalized view of it... As you say, the credit is an observer's construct, but I think sometimes the innovators are also just the audience of an emergent concept.

Put another way, I think the whole narrative of ideas "coming from" an individual is often a self-indulgent fiction. I've seen too many R&D topics where the supposedly novel ideas seem to be inevitable memes. The self-styled sole inventors are often one of many seeing the same insights at the same time, because they are all hosting the same prerequisite background knowledge.

There are also often lots of these ideas floating around simultaneously. A significant meta (or negative?) thought process is to defer or suppress most of the ideas and focus on a few. Sometimes, we might think to credit the boss with the wisdom of deciding _when_ an idea deserves attention. That business decision is often more impactful than the juniors' many heartfelt flashes of insight.

But this meta-analysis can go further. Often there are different labs all in slightly different phases and some are "before their time" and some, perhaps, "too late". Was the boss at the goldilocks lab really more innovative? Or are all the players merely parts of a broader monte carlo search method...?
...and portability.
Ukraine has a sea coast and a Navy, so I have no doubt that they have combat divers. Thus the only issue would be a logistic one. My take is that it is trivial to send people to the Baltic along with access to diving equipment and boats. Via sea route it should also be very doable to ship explosives.

So it is at least plausible.

> Interestingly computable numbers don't go to infinity:

Computable numbers are an unbounded set, so in that sense they do go to infinity, just like the natural numbers go to infinity. They just aren't uncountable.

Others and myself have noted in other comments that the Cantor notion of cardinality is not all that interesting or useful compared to the concepts of intuitionalism and constructivism.

In particular, as noted in Wikipedia, "almost all real numbers are not computable", yet it is impossible (by definition) to actually produce or approximate one of these numbers through any sort of computational process. This sort of obvious nonsense is why mathematics has very very slowly been edging back from "Cantor's Paradise".
Any law with such arbitrary and capricious interpretation should be unconstitutional. This is precisely the kind of reason why extra-territorial jurisdiction is generally a bad idea.

> in limited use

Which is supported by the article you cited. My only point was that its presence wasn't necessarily reason to decide the author doesn't know what they're talking about.

I also think the "poetic" sense of it, in context, is wholly enough to defend its usage here against such out-of-hand dismissal of the author over it. Since I did provide two reasons someone who's not unqualified to write on this topic might choose to use it.

In general I find that fans of fields tend to be more pedantic about this kind of thing than practitioners, sometimes to the point of being wrong from the perspective of those in the field (see: "the US isn't a democracy, it's a republic!")
Would you consider the C runtime a virtual machine once you link against libdill or use OpenMP? If not, why not? If so, well, then we just disagree on the term 'virtual machine'. My litmus test would be the presence of some sort of well-defined instruction set.

I’ve been the dev that replaced the strong candidate.

It was even worse, I was simply the guy in the meetings, the actual work was done by another dev that I translated for.

The best way to prevent it on remote teams is having the actual team in the interviews.

I managed up to 3 other devs while having a full time job on my end. Managing 3 daily meetings is no easy task.

The missions where short and we got fired only once, but that’s because the dev who was supposed to do the work was not up to the task.

That's been my own experience with Upwork (as someone looking for work).

I realized that Upwork is a sewer, and quickly bailed.

It's sad, because I heard very good things about Upwork. Of course, these "very good things," all came from people who hired through Upwork.
