That depends, if you want to specialize on one aspect and become an expert, or become more of a generalist who can do many things.

If you want to go down one avenue, specialize and really go deep, then I would try to structure my entire career around this, taking less money even, if it gets you the expertise and growth you need. It can be quite lucrative, but being an expert also means marketing your skills, presenting, writing about it, etc. The only downside I can see in this is your chosen area of expertise could go out of style and you might have 10 years of experience in someone the industry doesn't do anymore.

If you want to be more of a generalist, or even just want a good first job, taking a desktop development job in C++ would be good. I would prioritize a company that has some kind of formal or informal mentorship program, and as much as it kills me to say it, a company who's name will look good on your resume.

Personally, I pick the desktop job if you can get that with a company with name recognition, and a strong program of developing junior engineers. You can always figure out what to become an expert in later if you want to go down that path.

I'm confused. The article states that Snowflake uses domain fronting to connect users to forwarding peers. They use Google as an example:

> ... domain fronting lets the client make a request that looks like an ordinary web request for google.com ... To block Snowflake, a network or country would have to block all of Google

But Google disabled domain fronting in 2018. Amazon did as well[0]. Cloudflare disabled it in 2015.

The article even links to this Wikipedia page[1] on domain fronting, which states that all three of these providers have disabled domain fronting.

So... how does it work?

It sound like maybe you mean reduce, not prevent.
The article is incorrect. He drove to Utica, NY, which took him six hours.[1]

Both filament and electricity are incredibly cheap. His main costs were time, gas, and the risk of being pulled over on his way to the buyback.[2] Instead of printing full frames (which would take longer and use more filament), he printed a bunch of auto sears, which convert a semi-auto AR-15 to full auto. By the ATF's definition, auto sears are considered machine guns, so he got $350 per machine gun. Those auto sears are tiny. I doubt he spent more than a week of printer time on the whole endeavor.

> The security concerns for the Snowflake proxy operator are minimal. The Snowflake client will not be able to interact with your computer in any way or observe your network traffic, and you will not be able to see their traffic. From the perspective of your ISP it will look like you are connecting to a Tor bridge, which if you are running a Snowflake proxy should be legal and unrestricted in your country. There is no more risk running a Snowflake proxy than running Tor browser.

Isn't this a little sugarcoated? Your IP will now be known/knowable as a target to people you may consider bad. Running a Tor browser is between you, your ISP, and the bridge/entry.
> wonder what happens when every dev environment is just a docker pull away

They learn later, when/if they actually need it. And for those who turn out to be unwilling or unable, well, there wasn't much chance they'd have taken the same path as you, anyway.

Speaking of paths, specifically path dependence, autotools and friends really are monstrosities and should rightfully be relegated to history. I hope that simpler, easier environment building really are the future, as you hinted.
> the capital was never occupied (in a military sense) by armed protesters as you claim

I'm sorry, but this is a basic fact of the events, and you are tragically misinformed. Many people are misinformed, many media outlets played up the 'peaceful protests' angle, but there is no doubt, there was an armed insurrection.

I think this article offers a glimpse of what was being reported at the time [1]. Scores of police captured, 3 killed, 28 shot. This was prior to the presidential palace being captured, that happened once the police flipped sides.

Let's napkin that - i've never 3d printed a gun, so I'm deliberately choosing super high estimates:

$200 printer, $5 of filament each, 150 prints (high failure rate) 20 hours of printing each, 20*150 = 3000 hours of print time (125 days), 125 days of electricity for a 3d printer running at full capacity (idk but let's call it $500 to be safe), three day's drive to utah $100/night + gas (gasbuddy says ~$400) so total $1000

total: $2450

earnings: $21,000

profit less materials/energy costs: $18,550

hourly wage for working 8 hours a day on this for 125 days: $18.55

doesn't sound like he wasted any time or money, and I assume he worked much more like 2-4 hours a day on it which would mean it payed $37-75/hour.
By the time the communication was sent to all the users, wouldn't it have been too late? "Lose" the account or not, I don't imagine the company ever wanted to deepen the relationship with Facebook.
You can't drive from upstate New York to Utah in 6 hours. Speculation above is that he drove to Utica, which is in New York, and which makes sense because the buyback program was run by a New York official.

I don't know how much time or electricity it took, but $21k is a lot of money. I bet his profit after costs was well over $10k. Seems like pretty good money to me.
You might want to look into cardinal methods (I have a longer post above). They are not vulnerable to the strong spoiler effect (when you like two candidates a lot they can end up splitting the vote in RCV). The most popular ones are STAR and Approval. They're both trivial to implement, infinitely scalable, and trivial to understand the tallying process (all while providing high VSE).
Ask HN: Which C++ book was this?
Please aid a failing memory.

I’m thinking of a book intended to teach C++ —- not a reference book. It would have been in print and available in Barnes and Noble in the US in the summer of 1996. Softcover, and the cover may have been yellow. The book worked through a series of examples over 800 (? maybe) pages focused on building a text editor.

Ring any bells?

I just want to make clear for others: this "ranking" is just bhauer's opinion.

Since some people here might interpret it as being presented as objective fact or some consensus opinion.

There are a lot of pros/cons to all of the richer voting systems, usually categorized as approval voting, ranked voting, and score voting, in terms of increasing information.

But there is absolutely no consensus that approval or score are better than ranked. (In my opinion, ranked comes out ahead, and I talk about why in another comment here.)

But most of all, ranked choice is what has the growing momentum, as a lot of reform organizations have concluded it's the best practical solution. But what's most important is that we adopt one of them, and it would be a shame to spend our effort squabbling over which alternative, than giving support to the one that has the most momentum and chance of succeeding now. We're really only even having this conversation now because of the success reform groups have had in promoting ranked voting.

I used to work in a really niche engineering field. The amount of stuff I used from documents released by the US military was non-trivial. Never anything directly, but most of the time the docs were useful enough to shed deeper light and context on the trade publications and standards I was using when the history and intent behind a lot of calculations wasn't clear.
Unless memory is failing me, WhatsApp had ~55 employees (engineers ?) when they were acquired, also I doubt that Facebook is now pumping tens of thousands of engineers on a product that kept itself up with more or less 50 people.
Moreover, I'm not sure what sort of change were they even supposed to bring to the app when their goal, as WhatsApp stated, was to take over SMS as global messaging system.
Anybody with $50 can build themselves a safe and reliable slamfire shotgun made out of metal. The hardware store employees will even cut the pipe for you. These can be sold to police buyback programs for a huge profit, or simply used as shotguns normally are used.

The only way to stop this is to restrict the availability of ammunition, which is feasible in some countries but not America.
And the NY Post's headline writers do know a lot about how to frighten every American.
> We don’t ride horses the way we did before

There are more people riding horses than ever - it has become a hobby for the upper middle class, head to the exburbs of any US city and you will see lots of people who work in the city and come home to their horses every night.

Back before cars oxen were preferred for most tasks needing animal power - they were stronger and ate less food. Where speed mattered though the horse was better. Of course before the car people walked unless they were disabled - the horse/oxen were for pulling cargo or the plow, but either way you walked behind (it wasn't unheard of for the wagon driver to lead the team, though often they would sit on the wagon).

If you lived in a city (remember before tractors 95% of the population lived on a farm!) you probably didn't have any animal transport at all: they ate too much food. On the farm animal labor was useful, so if the farm could support it you would have it (many farms couldn't, and slaves were potentially more useful for the rest)
Be careful in presuming that science is capable of revealing the entirety of reality though. Technically, it doesn't even explicitly make that claim, but it seems that its reputation has kind of morphed into something much more than it is.

It's because people install malware a lot. Usually it comes along for the ride with pirated software, creating a 2x headache. I remember when they introduced similar policies at Google for Windows workstations - the stated rationale was that Windows users would warez literally anything and this was independent of job role or position. Senior engineering managers would be warezing things and it would come bound to malware. So they moved to binary whitelisting, eventually :(

Linux avoids this problem mostly because it doesn't have much commercial software to pirate in the first place.
Ah! That’s a good point.
Interesting hypothesis. It seems like we're planning on testing it.
Would you be willing to share the type of cancer? Also, was the person you're referring to (can't tell if it was a relative) able to bypass traditional chemotherapy and go straight to the immunotherapy given the prognosis? Or did the oncologists require chemo first and only then your contact was able to receive the immunotherapy?

Seriously though, with the trend towards computing in the cloud, I doubt it really matters. Chances are, employees will find some kind of (portable) terminal to the cloud at their desk.

Curse you Title Case!!

With the convention that articles and prepositions are not capitalised, if you have a title that is mostly articles and prepositions, then the remaining few words which are capitalised can easily be confused with proper nouns, especially if those nouns are relevant to the title's subject. e.g.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Edge

I thought that the article was going to be about how the author thought Edge was going to (somehow) dominate the browser space sometime in the forseeable future.
If a large graph is needed to be read multiple times, sure memory bandwidth will result in the most performance possible under the context of this workload like interacting with PageRank (and going further with optimization techniques on memory allocation and management, will boost the performance even further).

So to my understanding (and a novice one at that), the graph should be stored on disk first, upon initializing the objects will have to be an one-time copy to volatile memory but I question, memory regions are more likely to yield faults and get corrupt and thus graph stored in-memory is also completely flushed? (unless the results are being saved to disk in-between specific intervals of time?) Does that make any sense?
My next door neighbor would scream at people passing by. I’d routinely be woken at 7am due to his swearing.
Things started getting worse. He verbally threatened to kill people. He bashed in an RV parked on the road by his property, causing thousands in damage. He jumped off his balcony toward a neighbor he was threatening.
I went, with some others, to the police. They couldn’t do anything. If he yelled on his propery, that was his business. If the RV owner wanted to press charges, that was their business. Oh, they could offer him help, but he’d have to take it.
Shortly thereafter, I had heard him calmly yelling “You think I’m scared of the police?! I’m not scared of no *Ing police!” And why should he? They visited him multiple times a week and did nothing.
Two weeks later he beat his mother to death with a tire iron.
Yes, we need good ways to determine instability, but some of these cases are pretty clear cut, and we have a very real problem.
Same thing happened in solar, so I'm not entirely sure why anyone is surprised by this?

You can't compete against a nation state. Best you can do is have nation states agree to let you in on the action.
California's energy policy needs a little work. Their environmental laws made creating power plants impossible in their state, so they almost exclusively purchase power from other states at sub-optimal rates for any new power demand.

Edit: phrasing and tone
That is not a manufacturing process. Pretty sure they are referring to time sensitive operations where halting a manufacturing process causes substantial losses due to the overhead of starting and stopping that process and probably losses due to waste that cut much deeper than mere losses in profits... maybe also to do with the affect on supply consistency to their customers.

(Regularly) shutting down such operations could quite realistically bankrupt them.

> people don't measure their difference from a candidate on a single axis and vote for the person with the smallest distance.

Good news, that's not how it works. You are minimizing the distance in a hyperspace, not a single axis. People draw a singular axis (or two) to simplify and explain the concept. But still, the distance is measured in a hyperspace.
Yeah, cars predate marathons by about 10 years. The marathon sport was invented for the 1896 olympics, the first car was shown off in 1886 and sold commercially in 1888
> Anyone with a $200 printer can build a safe and reliable semi-automatic handgun.

Maybe you can print a lower that will sort of work a few times, after you buy professionally machined parts for all of the critical parts of the gun.

People make this statement because it is technically true, but all they're going to accomplish is a push for high-pressure parts to be serialized.
The bible mentions people running in a race. May not have been a marathon, but foot races were clearly known before bicycles and cars.
The quote was "According to SOME estimates ...", FWIW. But even your phrasing is a far cry from the attempt to infer that it was "stolen", which is the clear implication of the hyberbole above.

And in fact that was spun too, because (as you read farther down the linked debunking) the original quote was "$2.3 trillion were unsupported by reliable explanatory information and audit trails or were made to invalid general ledger accounts", which doesn't even support "cannot track". In fact, per that statement, we can track it, we know where it went, we just don't know why or in some cases to precise recipients.

Those are accounting failings. They're bad. A system with failings like that is certainly going to be subject to exploitation and fraud. For sure they should fix it (and to some extend did). But to claim that all of that $2.3T was fraudulent is just a plain lie.

Becsuse the business only provides you with one machine so if you need a portable one one day of 100 then it has to be a laptop.

Buying or maintaining two devices per developer is too costly regardless of whether the pair (a cheap laptop and decent desktop) is cheaper than an expensive laptop.
I’m not saying that the MRI experience itself is unbearable. But have you ever done psychedelics? No sleeping/snoozing. Your mind is very, very active and it can be intense/emotional. The experience I’ve had with MRI and shrooms/LSD makes them seem very incompatible. Just my opinion though.
As others have mentioned, the more you get close to a population center the more activity is happening, even underwater in rivers.

Anchors are being drug, there are other already existing lines, it's all quite complicated.

If you have a fatpipe already running OUT of the city center, it can be much easier to join up to that elsewhere, and then dip into the drink.
The process for making webapps in Rust seems extremely clean compared to other languages (or maybe I'm not exposed enough but I remember making things with Golang and even just JS was torture with common hosting solutions). Props to shuttle.rs and the Rust community!
I am not aware of any precisely because of the concerns you raised with buying and coercion. I am not aware how modern cryptography allows this either, while preserving secret ballot. Please let me know if there are advancements that render my opinion incorrect. I just think it is a really interesting information-security problem that seems intractable. My personal opinion is paper ballots and in-person voting is probably the most effective pair of policies at preventing wide-spread voting fraud.
No, it does not mean that. Getting away with a loophole a few times and causing the rules to get adjusted to account for a grift does not change the law in general.
No, it is how much they like a candidate on a certain topic and then they consider all topics, which are weighted. But also the distance measurement of voting systems aren't in reality a single axis. So this doesn't really matter anyways because it is already accounted for.

Where's the part in that article where it was proven he did not? There was certainly a miscarriage of justice, but it sounds like everything still ended in a he-said-she-said. From your description, I was expecting an eventual proof of innocence and didn't see it. There's even a quote from the jury foreman insisting that the verdict shouldn't be interpreted the way you're interpreting it.
Also growth is hard to manage. And GE power has multiple business lines ( nuclear, hydrogen, off-shore wind) that might be better investments and higher margins than onshore wind.

> Sudden death of someone who looked in perfect shape and was only 47 brings a lot of questions.

Not really. Dropping dead from a widowmaker in your 40s, while not common, is hardly unheard of. Could have been something else, too, like an aortic dissection. Nobody knows but his doctor and maybe his family. Speculating gets us nothing. We know how to lead healthy lives, should we choose. And accidents still happen.
KUDOS to you for respecting the Condorcet Winner.

After spending a notable portion of my life diving deeply into voting systems, their side effects, and the various poorly-thought-out arguments that people make, I basically only feel wincing pain when a lot of these projects come out. So I'm glad that the concept of the Condorcet Winner hasn't been forgotten.

The IRV zealots have basically won the messaging war, using what I believe to be unethical tactics. IRV is not the only way to count RCV, but they act like it is. But power is power, so until society suffers enough with lousy results, it's just going to be the FPTP pain all over again, dressed up in different clothing.
