Cramming for Coding Interviews
I've interviewed SWE candidates, discussed others' interviews, and been interviewed myself. By now, I've noticed what kinds of imbalances exist in interviews and can list things to study that come up more than they should in general SWE coding interviews.

1. DFS/BFS, both recursive and iterative form. Iterative version is usually better because it's easier to incorporate the Q's gimmick into it, plus they might grill you on Python's max call depth. Honestly, these are important in real work, but I've had an interview day where every single algo question was basically DFS.

2. Trie. It's niche, but I've seen a silly number of questions that are super easy with a trie and super hard without one. Should be banned IMO cause it almost purely tests textbook knowledge.

3. Dynamic programming (DP), and its cousin memoized recursion. The harder interview questions will require this. Memoization is usually easier, but I've seen some interviewers insist on DP.

4. Text parsing. Use a finite state machine, or it'll get ugly quickly. Say you're parsing XML like <tag>value</tag>, make an enum of states OPENING_TAG, READING_VALUE, CLOSING_TAG, loop through one char at a time, and add an entirely separate branch for each state in the loop.

5. Java OOP memes. They'll especially ask what an abstract class is for some reason.

6. If you're given a list as input, half the time, sorting it is half the answer.

7. Distributed hashmaps. If the interview involves concurrent or distributed algos, it will probably be a modified hashmap of some kind.

8. Different from all the above, I've been interviewed for many "reliability/production engineer" type roles (and taken none of them). Every single place has asked me to recite the entire TCP/IP stack. "I pledge allegiance to the SYN flag, of the finite states of TCP..."

I've purchased a handful of things that I have scoured the internet for hours and couldn't find because they later came up in an ad randomly. I am extremely satisfied with the products. In fact, the only thing I'm not satisfied about is how much time I've spent fruitlessly which shows search is still an unsolved problem.
> It will form a layer of glued-together unwoven fabric...

Yes.

> ...like the one on Hadid's body

Absolutely not. If you watched the video, the end result was a garment that was not stuck to the wearer. The straps were independent from the shoulders. The rest of it flowed and fluttered like real fabric, and not like the typical "spray on dress" we've seen before. It's not a coating once finished. It's a separate thing.

Notice how the fabric didn't cling to her inner legs, but bridged that gap instead.

Now I agree that I'd like to see how durable this thing is once it's been washed. I'll accept whatever wash method is standard for a fancy dress. That is: if it can't be tossed into a normal washing machine, but can be handwashed with Woolite in the sink, then that's good enough for me.

That’s not what will happen, because the US is by far the most lucrative market for advertising, and serving ads to users in the US means that they will have to adhere to US laws, even if they’re not physically located there, just as Twitter is forced to censor content according to the laws of every other country where it does business (e.g. censoring Nazi material in Germany)
Exactly! Flexible rituals, not rigid structures. In particular, the morning rituals should be designed to encourage some form of productivity and the evening rituals should create closure.
I'm really interested in how they made this a "dress" and not "pants". That is, from the Instagram video, Bella Hadid comes out completely naked except for underwear. You can see as they're spraying that she's keeping her legs close together, but still in the final scene where the assistant cuts the slit up the side, the dress then hangs like a "normal" fitted evening gown. I feel like they must have skipped over some parts about how they kept this "silly string" from getting stuck between her legs.

> If you don’t get what you want: it’s due to your decisions.

Asking genuinely, because I struggle with determining how much of what I don't get can be attributed to me:

What if I wanted to be healthy, but have $<any number of chronic, debilitating conditions with no clear identified cause, mechanism, and or cure>? I recently listened to a podcast where two people try to follow life-advice books and determine if it actually helped them, and one of the hosts had an extremely distressing time trying to attribute why her abnormal mammogram result wasn't being followed up on by her doctor, despite daily calls for two weeks, was something that was due to her decisions.

[How does this apply to being abused as a child? Being a domestic abuse survivor? Being the victim of a hate crime, displaced due to war or other disaster?]
I used to believe that, until I played https://semantle.com/.
Yes, it was possible to observe, and many people did. In fact, it drew a lot of interest and there were usually many observers per ballot... in big population centers.

But it is also incredibly hard to make sure every counted vote gets observed in a country of 150 million voters and where the polling location are as different as a boat in a minor river in the Amazon serving a semi-isolated tribe that barely speak the country's official language and a consulate in Ramallah. Ballots have to be transported, counted and recounted over a period of days.

If somewhere along the third day of counting someone exchanges 50 votes from a ballot and you saw it, what do you do? Your word against his? What if he threatens you with violence? Etc.

Electronic elections, even though they are a bit of a black box, solved all those very real, very practical problems.
> Of course he got it from the cemetery. The idea that he coincidentally landed on the name ‘Eleanor Rigby’ - for a song about a woman who “died in the church and was buried along with her name” - is wildly implausible.

...

> (Note that the gravestone in question isn’t even for Eleanor Rigby herself but her grandfather; her name is further down, a detail).

So, in any case he didn't name the character after someone who died in the church, or was even buried there, but someone whose name appears there. Essentially, the connection is that the name Eleanor Rigby is engraved in a place where Paul McCartney has been before. The fact that he met Lennon there does not mean that the place is seared in his memory, it just means it's of historic importance to Beatles fans, which may be making this coincidence seem like something else.
You don't need to install Google Analytics to rank on Google.

The article you cited mentions CRUX data[1], which comes from the Google Chrome browser, not Google Analytics. That data is reported to website users in the form of the Core Web Vitals report, which is a different product than Google's ranking algorithm. Although similar data is probably used as a ranking factor, you can't conclude that from this support documentation.

From the article: “Originally, the spray-on dress started with a can of silly string. “I thought I could create a mist,” mentions Torres in a 2013 TED Talk. “That was the eureka moment.” he adds. The technology can be used in fashion to not only create dresses like done on Hadid, but also to repair any damaged items.”

It is manipulation of you, towards specific product, within domain you look for. So you and your subconsciousness are outright attacked to buy product whose manufacturer paid the most, regardless of actual quality.

(ie we also buy baby stuff but sure as hell the best products are not ie 'pampers' which are in every freaking ad block on TV I ever saw, probably... same for thousand other household products, advertised ones are very rarely proper high quality within their category, since so much is spent on pushing them down everybody's throat).

I can't comprehend how otherwise smart folks can't grok this basic principle of advertising, its pure logic and simple follow-the-money principle. Its fight for your wallet, and your brain controls the wallet. Maybe it doesn't insult your intelligence to be manipulated like a sheep, but it sure does mine.

One example of why you might want one account per region:

You regionalize data (eg, US data in the US, EU data in the EU) and you want to be able to show (and enforce) separation for compliance or security reasons. You might even take that further, and have multiple accounts per region to create “cells” that correspond to segments of that region.

Disclosure: I worked on Amazons tax pipelines.
Eh. It's inevitable that Google would nickel-and-dime creators because YouTube is extremely expensive and lost money for many years; I'm not even sure it's profitable now. Something had to give. I suspect most YouTubers (and Twitch streamers) who've been smart about business worry less about losing money from ads and more about algorithm-driven censors age-gating their content.
or... the feds stop requiring everyone to go through this KYC bullshit and we accept that anonymity or pseudonymity is hecking valid.
ahahahaha man who do you think is the one who added all this KYC shit and who scares companies into over compliance... and you want more regulation as a solution. we could start by removing all KYC requirements and fighting crime as crime instead of imputing some criminality to a financial transaction. like even if it's part of a criminal enterprise the transaction itself isn't the "wrong" part.

As for keeping the number of accounts down, I've seen that blow up significantly if you have someone break into an account or have a disgruntled employee that can get into a single account and wreak massive damage. Or if your software runs in multiple regions and you need to meet compliance requirements like GDPR, etc.

This is a weird article. It has almost no content, and is just a small personal journal entry. It has the exact same sign-off as a different personal journal entry (with slightly more context) that got front-page exposure earlier today, and submitted by the exact same person: https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=memorable, who is a developer for the blogging software these articles were authored with. Feels like a weird / non-genuine stealth marketing campaign.
My anecdote on how we do it:

- We have AWS Org

- Each account has no root IAM and cost/pricing goes through root AWS Org Account

- You move between accounts with AWS SSO (now IAM Federation) - No more password per account

- AWS SSO standardizes boundaries across account with IAM policies, like eu-centeral-1 only for dev IAM etc.

- Inside Account more granular access with IAM Assume Roles

- Each account Cloudtrail to a central S3 for audit (Same region pricing works for diff accounts!)

- Each account is `project.env` like micro_service1.dev or company1_k8s+s3.prod

- That way, we have pricing per project built in where tag support ends (and it do have limits)

We came to this structure realization after we saw Azure Resource Groups and Google Projects. We also saw the 5 VPC soft limit AWS has per region and think it's kind of a clue from amazon: "pss.. this account soft/hard limits is sized for 1 project/deployment"

The only problems come from automating stuff, like Route53 records that can point automatically to load balancers in that account or as mentioned in the article, VPC2VPC, although we use serverless stuff like lambda and s3 and experience less of that.

But as time go on we realized, like the VPC example in the article, that those problems forced us to structure our stuff in a more SOLID way, which became a feature for us. Just like moving docker-compose to k8s is not creating app-mesh and ops problem, but REVEALING them. So the solution for the Route53 example is to have a separate subdomain zone in each account for automation and ADDING another account `main_route53.prod` with a root zone pointing to them.

Hope this helps for the curious.

Depending on geography diesel comes from boats, tanker trucks or planes. Solar might start getting some niche use, but it's not reliable even with batteries at a reasonable scale. The main benefit to diesel generators is it's pretty easy to fix and maintain them with minimal equipment. The amount of diesel per person for a generator isn't that much, even smallish planes can carry about a week of diesel for about 10-20 people.

yes, but you haven't shown that that translates into more precise and accurate ROI. marketers and advertisers believe it should, but there's no solid proof. that's because markets (and any human endeavor) is complicated beyond our ability to model (and solve) it deterministically. attribution models (such as incrementality studies) can sometimes give you clues, but can't really tell you why any given person bought something with any certainty. it's the old adage of half of advertising dollars are wasted, but you don't know which half.
