> You might ask why we included the second condition, i.e. modulated interviews that didn’t change the interviewee’s pitch. As you probably noticed, if you played the videos above, the modulated one sounds fairly processed. The last thing we wanted was for interviewers to assume that any processed-sounding interviewee must summarily have been the opposite gender of what they sounded like. So we threw that condition in as a further control.

It wouldn't affect things like cadence, but they did include a modulated (but not cross gender) control group.
Rumor has it this was a targeted leak back in the day. As a PR move.
Reddit seems to try and change that, though? I don’t really follow what development happens on new reddit, but it seems more user-oriented?
> If by "relativity" you mean special relativity, nobody used it for anything when it was published. The first real use of it theoretically was to explain the Compton effect in 1921,

The Michelson-Morley experiment was in 1887 and a whole bunch of theories resembling relativity were developed to explain it. SR itself was one of those, and the cleanest.

Probably not valid.

With the way machine learning networks work, they don't really learn one-off high-entropy strings like API keys.

The weights powering the models are only so big, there simply isn't enough memory to waste storing that type of data.

Instead, it's learned the general pattern of what an API key looks like and the fact that it's high-entropy random jibberish, with no predictable pattern. And when auto-completing code, it's just going to generate a random string of characters in approximately the correct format.
This honestly seems like an example of how to handle layoffs well. After the repeated messes of Better, the non-layoff layoffs at Meta, and a bunch of smaller examples over the last year and a half, it's actually nice to see them handled well.

They always suck, but being transparent, ripping the band-aid off, and giving the people laid off as much support as possible is the way to go. They're also far enough from the holidays that people can still job search, but close enough that most people in tech could eat a few weeks of savings to take an extended holiday. Don't know if that was deliberate, but it seems well timed
Assuming you’re right and not unfairly discounting people who look or think different due to your prejudices, this just hurts mega-businesses profitability right? What’s the measurable material harm to you exactly? Can you prove it or do you just feel it? Still assuming you’re right, and not prejudiced, why is giving historically disadvantaged people a crutch to lean on so bad? Won’t at least some of them thrive and blossom thereby paving the way for others who look, think, act, or worship like them? Is this not corporate welfare in a time when social welfare has been whittled so far down that there are generation long waiting lists for public housing vouchers? What exactly is so terrible about helping people grow into roles instead of following the semi recent practice of only hiring perfectly qualified candidates?
So, any people here who currently work at Valve and can chime in on the actual working culture day to day and what the hiring process looks like? At some point I applied for some roles and all I got was a bunch of vague messages and ghosting.
I also don’t like either the animation speed or the default full screen behavior. You can configure the animations to be much faster, and use opt+click for a normal full screen window. These are design decisions I don’t prefer, but they definitely don’t suggest virtual desktops aren’t a first class consideration. They’re a first class consideration which don’t match our preferences, sure.
More's the pity. Now we just constantly delete whole branches of elements from the DOM and recreate them with react.js instead, which is far less efficient. React.js would probably cause your computer to use measureably more electricity even.
You solved problems yourself.

Truly, a dark time compared to the more enlightened "cut and paste from some website solves all problems" utopia we now live in.
Ugh, its an annoying problem that I understand from both sides. Opening a new page has a surprisingly large amount of user friction vs opening a sidesheet or modal. Most of it is just a deficiency in how browsers work. If I'm scrolling down a listing page, I don't want to open a new page because returning will often leave me not where I was before. So I make a judgement call on if a link is _really_ worth clicking. While pages which allow expandable previews or modals, I am much more likely to click since its less of a disruption.
That's interesting. I went on their website and it was nostalgic browsing these phones.
Alternative to Cox? I don’t think you have actually tried Starlink, otherwise you wouldn’t say that.

For me, bandwidth is between 60Mbps and 100Mbps. Latency 50-100ms. But the worst is how unreliable it is. Muktisecond blackouts many times during the day and subsecond time-outs many times per hour.

SSH over Starlink is pretty painful.

In best case it’s an alternative to wireless service providers, but otherwise I would get a stable reliable 25Mbps DSL over Starlink any day.

Yep, revenue is what really matters. The technology is not really important at all - unless we are talking about a special hardware project, or biotech project. If anything, complex tech is a bad thing because the owner now has to learn more to maintain it
2 key words, Wireguard and a cheap VPS.
Though that may be true, I also think as it gets less expensive to develop products, we'll see more people try more things.

Lets also not forget that all the things I mentioned were successful enough that nobody had to ask what it was. Think of all the products that never even made it to that level.

I never owned a Kin! So maybe I have some taste.
True. But listening to an hour-long or half-hour long podcast is considerable more investment than a simple headline. In terms of the investment in time the listener makes.
There's certainly no doubt in my mind that they save your "top" match, based on your swipe history and whether or not they've already matched you, to show up right after you use your last free swipe. Wait 12h and hope they show up again? Maybe, or maybe I'll spend the $2 to get that super like. Very scummy.
This comes from the fact that SPA routers work best when you use JS to update so you don't have the page flash like a normal page load. React router at least has a trick element which is an a tag with href but if you click it, it intercepts it an does an onclick load. But it still works as a link for all other purposes like copying location.
This is not so complicated, you just need tanks with heat exchanger loops. The solar water heater input comes into your tank at the bottom and goes through a copper coil, giving you domestic hot water.

_Some_ tanks will have a similar coil in the middle/top of the tank. What you can do is then run the cold return from your heating units through this coil. It will heat the radiator water before going to the fan coil unit. This is often done as a precursor "boost" before sending the water through a boiler/heater -- the solar heat is applied to cut the temperature differential and reduce the energy expended by the boiler/heater for the radiant heat, but you're not relying solely on solar heat.

You can get heat pumps that use a water storage tank with extra heat exchanger loops like this, precisely for providing domestic hot water. The DHW and radiator water never mix. There aren't any moving parts, so it's simple.

The only question is what the max temp is from the thermosiphon tank, and whether that exceeds either the max radiator water temp or, if you use some kind of modulating boiler/heater for the radiator, the max input temp.

The math for solar storage gets daunting, however. If your typical max temp for the thermosiphon tank is 120F on a sunny day and the cold return from the FCU comes back at 70F, then with 65 gallons you can store about 26K BTU in your tank. That sounds like a "2 ton"/24K heater, but it isn't because the BTU rating of heaters is _per hour_. So, if your house needs a ~24K BTU system for heating, a sunny day storing heat in your tank will get you about an hour's worth of free heating. 24K BTU/hour is a pretty small heat load for a typical house... (though plenty doable if you invest in insulation, windows, etc.)

So, the thermosiphon is maybe adequate to provide you with domestic hot water, but in a cold climate you'll need 3–5 more of them and a repurposed and well-insulated 500gal milk tank in a shed near your house with insulated below-ground pipes running to it.

Yep. How expensive would it be to hire some tech writers? There was a time at the company (okay, it was decades ago) when writers (like Scott Knaster) were considered important-ish employees. The company had a heck of a lot less money back then, so what's the excuse for not doing this now?
Puzzling thing for me is why people are split by genders. In developed countries like USA, women is as free as men. There are zero cultural aspects like in Saudi Arabia or other countries that prevents women from getting education or apply for jobs they want. Still, vast number of women gravitates to jobs like teachers, nurses, hygenists, hair saloon, waiting staff and so on. It is not that they were forced to take on those jobs. It is what they chose by their own will. Female participation in labor market is now well over 40% so almost everyone has chosen to do some job. But we still complain about lack of women in tech and we blame it on bias. I am certain bias is definitely there for women but is it the only reason, or even most prominent, why we have so few women choosing tech instead of those other very low paying jobs? I think people should be putting much more effort at incentivizing girls to pursue tech career paths than force upon artificial DEI targets on management hierarchy.
The computer errors from outer space
Apologies for misrepresenting your source.

I think there are salary differences across careers for a variety of complex market reasons. If I had understood the degree to which money would dictate the security of my family, I'd have spent my years as a lowly paid graduate student and post-doc becoming a surgeon or working in finance instead of becoming a mathematician. My bay area salary is much better than my tenure track salary but still a fraction of what I could actually be making. Nurses, too, are free to retrain.

I will concede that this issue is not personally important to me.
And Apple uses forced labor in Xinjiang - one could make the case that that's worse than dark patterns.
What?

No, seriously... Apple created WebKit (former engine for Chrome, replaced by Blink) and basically pioneered many web standards. Even some standard HTML elements are Apple's creation, like canvas. Apple is literally a founding member of WHATWG.

That's not to say Apple doesn't deserve their share of criticism for various proprietary efforts, but at least recognize they've been a pretty big contributor to the web.
Does anyone know if this has been updated since then? Do they still hand something like this out to new employees?

I remember reading this years ago and thinking it was just so cool (the contents and structure). But I’m not sure how well it really works in practice. Is it better, or just different?
I'm seeing this sort of thing a lot lately (perhaps I'm looking for it?). A lot of people expressing, in one form or another, that we, our society, have somehow have gone down the wrong path. Even in this article there is a subtext of change ... for the worse.

If you want to be dismissive, call it nostalgia — or point out that every generation feels this way about the way the world is compared to the way it was when they were younger.

But I think there is something truly broken in the world and I think people feel it too. The phrase that kept popping into my head when I was feeling particularly down about the way of things was, "No one would have chosen this." That is, in reference to the way the Western world is today.

Two of these are real companies that have signed up for Workplace. One is not. See if you can tell which is which.

(Of course, it is possible that Meta has done something special to make their Workspace instance behave exactly like a nonexistent one. I can't rule that out. But it would be very unusual for them to build in a confusing special case just for themselves.)

Meanwhile the Executive Suite inhabitants walked away free as birds.

Hm... Regret is an emotion, not a logical destination. People don't rationally analyze a situation and deploy the appropriate, justifiable emotion; reacting emotionally is an involuntary step in processing things. You might be able to control your outward response, but that's not the same thing. Someone can experience regret for decisions that they wouldn't change in hindsight.
Sorry to hear that. I get it. I've been there. I reached a point where I was in a big company and got promoted to a level where there were no LGBTQIA+ people above my level - and this was at a FAANG company. All meetings were all straight cis guys that were overly aggressive. It was so incredible exhausting to function in that environment. The only reason I lasted as long as I did was because I had a very good female boss that could navigate working with these guys that had no clue the problems they caused for the people around them because they "were just being guys." I learned a ton about all these mental gymnastics you have to do to work with people that made no effort to adjust to work with different types of people. It was painful.

I'm now working at a smaller firm and get to be a major influencer and decision maker in how the culture is getting laid out. It's mind boggling how much trauma/PTSD people bring to the table from working in offices that are really homogenized and lack diversity with them being the one that's different. I still can't get over how common it is regardless if it's gender, sexuality, education background, or disability. What I think a lot of people are missing in the DEI discussions isn't about trying to find diverse candidates but how to create environments where they - along with everyone else - thrives.

It's pretty obvious from the comments in this post how there's a strong vocal minority of people that refuse to engage and constantly battle how broken things are. I just hope they figure it out before it's too late. And if they refuse, I hope they remain ICs with very little influence and not included in significant decision making because this attitude is poison for so many people.
Are you conflating land vehicles with air ones? Because autopilot flies more hours than pilots in 2022.
I tried it and it knows my username (same as my username here). I haven't decided how I feel about that.
the biggest reason for this is the big games that people spend money on today are free. the 30% platform fee doesn’t matter to fortnite, apex legends, overwatch, dota2/cs would be here if valve didn’t own it. the big cash making games have gone around the market place by being the marketplace themselve: gta online. and that trend will continue.

i bet without cs and dota steams revenue per user has been in decline over the past 5 years as money moves from paid libraries to paid addons in free games
> I settled on adding 0.5 points to the score of every woman I interview (then rounding to a whole number). Also, I champion them if they are borderline in the panel discussion.

So you deliberately engage in gender discrimination? You just straight up give women a bonus, across the board, explicitly on account of their gender?

Imagine someone saying the inverse, "I find that men outperform women on average, so I settled on adding 0.5 points to the score of every man I interview."
I respectfully disagree. Even without a caloric surplus, you can develop metabolic disease from simple carbs and sugars being over represented in your diet. Your body can burn fat and it can burn sugar, and the fat burning pathway is generally more sustainable and healthy long term. Sugar burning pathways are there for quick bursts of energy. Overdevelop the glucose pathways and under develop fat burning pathways and you get a whole bunch of nasty diseases.

This is why there are some chubby people who are in better overall health than some skinny people.
No, it is a command line thing. Neovim and vim are just the editor component of the bigger tools that is something like vscode.

To get Neovim kind of things to be anywhere near usable for modern day development work, you need to bolt a file browser, intellisense, command line section, remote editing section, container plugins, plugin installer, settings section etc etc on top of it, and is not really a trivial job for everybody to do this from scratch. Hence the use is by and large restricted to one off server side editing(This itself is getting rarer these days with containers).

In cases where Neovim is plugged into thing like vscode the experience is less than seamless. You have to keep moving between mouse and keyboard modes, formatting plugins like black for Python don't autoformat on save like they do on normal vscode editor. The intellisense doesn't work, etc.. Apart from bare minimal modal editing you really get nothing much.

To make vim/Neovim/emacs nearly as usable you need to reinvent these editing ideas but in the paradigm of modern day development workflow. And it needs be as ubiquitous as vscode. There must be little configuration work and things must work out of the box.

And lets be honest typing speed is not even relevant to software development speed so the editing efficiency gains in vim/emacs, while might save your day in heavy lifting text tasks via macros. They don't add that much gains to your workflow in normal development scenarios.
There's just no way I'd ever voluntarily give money to Mark Zuckerberg.

TypeScript does not have dependent types. It has type-level constants and surprisingly powerful type manipulation facilities, including string manipulation on string type constants. But there's no way to operate on types at the "dynamic" expression level - they're deliberately erased, to the point that transforming TypeScript to JavaScript is almost trivial.

For example, take the very first example of a dependent type in the Idris tutorial - a function `isSingleton` that consumes a `Bool` and produces `Nat` if you give it `True` and `List Nat` if you give it `False`; it then uses `isSingleton` as part of the type of `mkSingle`, a function that consumes a `Bool` called `x` and produces an `isSingleton x` - that is, a `Nat` if `x` is `True` and a `List Nat` if `x` is `False`. There's no way to write this in TypeScript. You could have `isSingleton` return dynamic constructors instead, but you can't use that `isSingleton` as part of the type of `mkSingle` to generate a return type. Your `mkSingle` would be stuck with the signature `(x: boolean): number | number[]`; which branch of the return type you end up with depends on `x`, but there's no way to make TypeScript properly understand the connection.
TDP of 450W
Someone else made this point elsewhere but a 4090 can be CPU limited at 4K. It's 50% more performance with the same power draw as the 3090 Ti. Undervolting grants a 150W drop with a 5% drop in performance. The 40 series is looking spectacular so far.

The RX 6xxx XT gen do better than the newer intel GPU and with a LOWER TDP!! close to half the TDP in fact!

In rasterization. But the future of gaming is "DLSS" and ray-tracing. Both areas that AMD struggles so far. It's generally accepted, but muted in most reviews that both Intel and Nvidia are ahead in ray tracing and upscaling tech compared to AMD. It doesn't bode well for AMD's market has what appears to be a pretty competent opponent in that space now with Arc.
How do you possibly figure?
tbh i got to the point of just assuming that unless someone intentionally writes a descriptive title it's clickbait. they could have put "masking voice gender in interviews showed no significant outcome change". if you aren't intentionally making the title maximally descriptive and information packed, just like any other good writing should be, i'm gonna say it's clickbait.

This happens often with coauthored papers as well, so not a total giveaway, necessarily.

I'd rather be hit by the 2x8. The wielder wouldn't be able to get as good a purchase on the grip, it's a greater mass to for him/her to accelerate, and the impact area would be more spread out.
I'd think that sort of thing would be in a section on feature prioritization or scoping an MVC. I don't see a section like that in the toc, and it feels like it would be rather out-of-scope for what this is about. Not that I've finished reading the whole thing in detail yet.
That’s typical for courts in Europe. For example, I don’t think any EU country legalized same-sex marriage by court order. I’m also not aware of any European country where abortion was legalized by court ruling. The US Supreme Court is unusual in running roughshod over the political process as much as it does.
Come on, now. I get 'Cowboy' is odd and 'Loveboat' was a mess, but 'Wonderland' and 'The Innocents' are still masterpieces. No need to worry. Erasure is still awesome.
I get motion sickness when I'm playing regular video games, not even VR, that's entirely out of the question.

If I don't stop at the first sign of queasiness, which for me creeps up quite slowly, if I don't notice and it gets reasonably strong, it will keep building for another half hour after I stop and can take up to 2 hours to go away. The only thing I can do is lie down with my eyes closed and think about not throwing up.

With me, the more focused I am on the game, even if the screen takes up a smaller part of my vision, the sicker I get. The more my lizard brain thinks its reality, the worse it is.
Those features are not what defines content addressing. Content addressing is defined as an address for a document that is a function of its content.

If your address is a function of a public key, then you're using "agent key addressing."
It is weird? You out your name in code in open repositories and it is out there.
