All else being equal, I tend to recommend the C++ job, because it seems you can learn more there. At the beginning of your career it might be better to broaden your knowledge, instead of refining the few things you already know.

I do not think that the decision you make now will necessarily have a decisive impact on your career. You may switch again for your next job, if you feel like it. It is not unlikely that in a few years you will be working in a field that you are not even thinking about today.

Test prep is effective at getting you an accurate score.

One bit of knowledge improved my ACT score from 27 to a 33: internalizing how long I have for the tests. I was so used to being able to finish school tests with a comfortable amount of time remaining, so I took the test at a casual pace which means I didn't finish. The second time, I sprinted through the test as fast as possible and my score improved dramatically.

I doubt I could have done better with more coaching or prep.

> I wonder if to achieve that, a back pressure is required in the system that we are just not willing to put up with.

By back pressure you mean some kind of negative feedback, I assume.

I think, more precisely, the problem is not that negative feedback is completely missing. The problem is, that technology and societies have implemented (mostly involuntarily so) lots of systems that effectively distribute the entirety of the negative feedback very widely across the members of society.

Like in a shared living situation where some people take great care to clean up after themselves and others do not. As a whole it somehow "works", without cleanliness getting out of hand, but only because some people are doing more than others. This way, those who do not clean up their own dirt, never even learn their real impact on the whole, because it's continuously remedied by others. Their negative feedback is effectively missing, so they get the impression that everything is fine.

On the worldwide scale it's an analogous situation.

Widespread governmental subsidies for energy are one of the biggest issues I see there. They redistribute a big part of production costs across all tax payers and eliminate a big part of negative feedback.
Is that a logical conclusion? Seems like other countries would do the same if it were that simple.

I have a 6 Pro that I got in November. AccuBattery says my health is at 99%. I use my phone for probably an hour a day and charge every other day.

You don't let your phones sit on their chargers while at 100% battery, do you? I'm fairly sure that's what killed the batteries of my last two phones. My Pixel 3 was working fine until I started working from home and the phone rarely left the charger. After 3 months, the battery started swelling.

> hold off evaluating the arguments until runtime or, perhaps, not at all (think short circuit booleans).

> infinite lists

Sounds like an early attempt at Haskell. Haskell is lazy by default so you can write your own "if" as a function and it will be just as short circuiting as the built in if. And infinite lists show up in basic Haskell tutorials.

However Haskell combines this laziness with immutability, which is an easier combination to reason about than laziness with mutable side effects.

Compiler technology for lazy languages is definitely impressive, but it's still the case that if you want to squeeze the last bit of performance out of Haskell code it does usually require manually forcing eager evaluation.
Think of it like a product funnel. If the goal is to get people to learn X, making them learn Y as a barrier first is unnecessary. You risk people abandoning the funnel that way. It's still entirely possible to learn these tools some other way.
>No person who did not wish to dominate others would choose to use advertising

This sounds like a very weird interpretation of the word "dominate," at best. Emailing someone to introduce yourself, your product, or your services is also "interfering in people's thinking patterns." So is talking to anyone in person or online. So is linking to your book's Amazon page on your profile as a way to "dominate" the minds of people who visit your profile.
Alright, so he...

2. He drove from NY to Utah

And he thinks he's making Utah's buyback program look foolish? This guy wasted a stupendous amount of time and money.

"not racial".

Well, given that track and field is brutally dominated not just by black Africans/Caribbean Islanders, but that they tend to come from only a handful of ethnic groups, I tend to think that direct race has at least some influence.

> "Gun buybacks are a fantastic way of showing, number one, that your policies don't work, and, number 2, you're creating perverse demand. You're causing people to show up to these events, and, they don't actually reduce crime whatsoever."

Of course, criminals aren't going to turn in their guns. Gun buybacks have always just been useful for their second order effects -- forgotten guns in attics being stolen, found by kids, etc.

Yes, people take advantage of these events. There's not much of a way to filter participants by intent. People turn in broken or rusty junk that is not of danger anyway. Doing it with a junk plastic gun is not much different than doing the same with junk guns made from other materials. But the bottom line is I don't think anyone ever thought that the results of these events would be 1-for-1 removal of crime guns off the street.

I'm not understanding your point. In cardinal systems a non rating is equivalent to a rating of zero. Just like in ordinal systems a non ranking is equivalent to ranking last place.

> And if it is not as simple as "Bob got the most votes, Bob won" it's going to get harder and harder to explain exactly what is going on

This makes it seem like you're in favor of cardinal methods actually. Tallying their votes is pretty trivial. You sum the scores of all candidates and then argmax the totals. I don't think people have a hard time understanding this. It is essentially the same as what happens with FPTP! I mean this is objectively a simpler algorithm than those used by even the simplest ordinal methods.

The English system unambiguously leads to abuse. We see autistic people held for years in secure services because it's thought they pose a risk of harm to others, but often that risk is evidenced by behaviours they exhibit while under severe restriction in hospital. I'd argue that if you put anyone in a locked room with nothing but anti-ligature clothing and keep them there for a month they'd act aggressively. See also the many documentaries about abuse, eg Winterborne View, St Andrews, Edenfield Centre, TEWV, etc etc.

Ask HN: Recommend video streaming CDN service
I would like to provide users with video streaming but would like to avoid the hustle of running the infrastructure.

Can you recommend a cheap CDN service for video streaming?

The way I imagine it is that a user will request a video stream instance, I will set it up via automated API calls and provide the user with access details for OBS(or similar software). The user then starts the video stream. Other users/audience will be able to watch it on my platform via embedded video player that will be streaming the video from this video cdn service. And I will be charged per use(although I would prefer something more predictable, rather than actual per-data pricing to not go bankrupt in case of sudden extreme interest in some video stream).

Which brings to mind a question. What's the point of a gun buyback if they won't accept 3D printed guns?

If it's to get guns off the street, it seems like you'd explicitly want to get cheap guns that are hard to trace (such as 3D printed guns).

Or is this just turning into a ceremonial thing that we do because it made sense at one time?
I already do that in pycharm. Everything else needs to be set once. But you’re actually arguing about multi-machines and I’m arguing about “code from anywhere” even on computers that don’t belong to you. That is an overblown feature that I’d never use.

Just because a problem is wicked, it doesn't mean it can't be overcome. It's not all or nothing.

Also, just because a problem isn't completely solved, it doesn't mean progress isn't useful.

But figure that we don't have definitive ways to effectively teach people. We have ways that work somewhat for some people, but disseminating knowledge in ways people can understand is a wicked problem. Anything you can think of, we have probably tried. And there is still some segment of the population that it does not work on. And those methods will work on those people in other cases. But not the ones those methods worked on in the first place. So obviously the method is not general, it works in some cases.

People make problems wicked. Because every problem becomes incredibly multi-faceted as you are dealing with so many different fields at once.

And it is the navigation of these wicked problems that is responsible in part for evolving us. A lot of societal progress is the result of attempts to solve wicked problems.

The first person I know of to do this was at a gun buyback in Houston in August. He printed 63 single shot .22s and got $6,200 for it.[1] He then used that money to buy a bunch of guns for himself and his daughter. The guy who made $21,000 says he was inspired by the reward from the Houston buyback.[2] He drove six hours to Utica, not Utah[3] and along with three other guys, managed to get $45,000 from the Utica Police Department. One of those three bragged about getting $5,000 for a week of printing plastic and $7 worth of screws.[4]

These people do this for two reasons. First, it's profitable (though that's likely to change as the buyback programs begin to exclude 3D printed guns). Second, it shows that it is incredibly cheap and easy to make firearms and illegal parts. Anyone with a $200 printer can build a safe and reliable semi-automatic handgun. It's even easier to build devices that convert a semi-auto firearm to full auto. Like the war on drugs, the policymakers have lost, they just don't know it yet.

I didn't know that Germany was more litigious than the US (I am French).

Right. I think we did global deployment, multi-region with geo based DNS and anycast like 10 years ago. I guess the difference here, it's now a product. I'm still not convinced. Why 3 years ago I started building it as a product and you know it just didn't matter. It makes a cool story and blog post but the technical details just don't matter. Tell me you can deliv er sub 100ms response times globally and give me a framework to build for that but the rest is details I just don't care about. I used to care, I used to think developers should know these details, the reality is it's not important. Delivering developer experience means the user not having to care about those details.

Delivering sub 100ms definitely important but mostly if it's just static pages and there's no database IO or calling of external third party APIs during that process then it's not relevant. The large majority of software is now not just serving a static assets but a lot of complex logic which ends up dictating a lot of the page load times, not the traversal of light across the globe.
