This was an upstream change in OpenSSH, not an arbitrary change by Apple.

Also, scp was in fact broken, and they fixed it by changing it to use the SFTP protocol under the hood.
Apologies in advance for a bit of a rant, but I sincerely hope the tools growing up around WASM significantly diminish the need for Docker. As an industry, we're so bad at isolation that we have to put a computer (container) inside a computer (VM) inside a computer (hardware) just to achieve any sort of sane guarantees.

Then we immediately trade any semblance of sanity for container orchestration.

(And please don't try to convince me that Kubernetes is sane. I operated a production SaaS on it for 4 years, and spent another year at a DevSecOps consultancy with 40+ CKAs—sanity and familiarity are not the same.)
Apple seems to be a lot more than 2 years ahead.

The M1 was November 2020. That’s two years ago, give or take a few weeks.

There is nothing close to the M1 available for a Windows ARM computer. There is nothing close from Intel/AMD if you just want an ultra-low power chip with very good performance.

Hi petty, Sometimes the word just isn't meant to imply that a task is easy. It can be a little tongue in cheek too.
Your arguments all over this thread are not “simple accounting applications”. Mortgages are ridiculously complicated. Even if they aren’t, the simplest of prepayment models requires exponents and fractions all of which will fail spectacularly if your system used just a fixed decimal range. When you first mentioned it in this thread, I thought you meant like simple surface level applications or accounting things, not heavily complex stuff like mortgages or derivatives. The latter require precise math in their (very non linear) modeling. You cannot eschew floats in that case.
Ask HN: Is long-term employee commitment to the same company still appreciated?
I often times see a Linkedin/resume of a senior engineer where they have jumped ship every couple of months, staying max <=2 years in every company they have worked at. Imho, I always thought this was a red flag during the hiring process at a new company, as it doesn't show any long term commitment. I can understand junior/graduate employees jumping ship often in the beginning, but for +10 YOE software engineers, I find it odd.

In contrast, staying too long at a single place could make it seem like a developer doesn't want any changes.

What is your opinion on this?

> We (the US) still allow asbestos in certain scenarios

Very few scenarios allow it and there's active lobbying to remove it even in those usecases. The guide you linked to primarily cites old products still in circulation and not new products.
> I don't claim to speak for what most people want. I think having more options than iOS and Android could help promote more consumer-friendly choices.

Using Linux on the phone with the lack of integration, the poor interface etc is the opposite of “consumer friendly”.

Normal consumers are not asking for the ability to “program their phone and run media servers”.

> Android is innovative because it is more open than iOS. Even more innovation is possible given the right circumstances

“Open” is not an “innovation”.
Assuming for a moment NATO can perfectly track each and every Russian submarine and take them all out at once, you've still got the Strategic Rocket Forces to contend with, especially their mobile launchers.

There's no feasible way the US can hit Russia with a first strike and not receive a nuclear strike in return. MAD remains in place, even if the US can knock down a few dozen missiles with ABMs.
I've been working on a blog post about that subject but basically. The most important feature of code in general is maintainability, the problem is maintainability is something that can really only be measured over a long time frame.

The other challenge is that most jobs don't need you to be that great of a developer they need you to be a decent developer and then it wouldn't matter if your Donald Knuth or Donald Rumsfeld you can perform within expectations.

So there isn't an easy way to really determine whether or not some produces lasting good work in a reasonable way in an interview, and you don't really need rockstar so much as you need people that can perform the minimum.

So you get crazy ideas that certain companies use and can use because they are making money hand over fist,and everyone assumes since that company is making so much money and hire people like that, that must be why they are making so much money, so they copy it in a cargo cult management fashion.

And if you think the leetcode is bad it at least has a tangential relation to development. You should've seen things back in the MS years when you'd have people ask you with a straight face "how many ice cream shops are in San Francisco?" "How many marbles can I fit in a bus?" "How many fields could our team fertilize using only what is produced in staff meetings?"

Stuff like that is even more annoying.
Haven't looked into it at all. Can it be used as a VS code plugin? I guess I couldn't use it at work. Is it even available to everyone?

> You're doing the thing where you confuse the need for a feature with the need for a particular implementation of that feature. Again, UEFI is really awful.

To be clear, I would have preferred that the universal booting solution was Open Firmware. But I'm pragmatic; UEFI is already widely used, so I'd rather have any universal standard rather than a fragmented ecosystem of non-standard options. I don't care that it's ugly, I care that it works and that it can get the market buy-in.

> Look at ChromeOS.

ChromeOS is a single OS from a single vendor, albeit running on multiple architectures. I don't know enough to know how beautiful it can be internally, but in practice a boot firmware that can't boot arbitrary BSD and Linux OSs is useless to me, and the ChromeOS firmware is, to my knowledge, only supported on Chromebook hardware and by ChromeOS and a tiny number of Linux distros that target Chromebook hardware. Ecosystem effects matter.

I think that leetcode-style interviews probably used to be more useful/more predictive when they weren't super common. Also, if you're one of the most-desirable employers in the market [as Google was at the time it popularized this type of interview], nearly any aggressive interview strategy will be at least moderately effective, as the most dedicated candidates will invest lots of effort in preparation for your interview specifically, and if you reject tons of candidates that would have been effective, it costs you ~nothing, since, as a top target for candidates, you'd never run out of top talent to hire.

Google also had an initial product which was primarily based around having a really good algorithm. Actually, several of their top early internal products also were about solving difficult problems with interesting and novel algorithms -- which gave them a huge bias in terms of what they were seeking.

Of course, at Google's scale and popularity, books were literally published about their interviews and both how to pass them and how great they were -- so naturally others who either were or wanted to be top-of-market adopted similar strategies. Lots of top companies also had Ex-Googler founders or early hires, which helped perpetuate the familiar structures throughout the industry.

For myself, I really dislike leetcode-style interviews. I think there is some value in asking, say, two different leetcode easy problems to verify that the candidate can produce reasonable code samples, and that they can express their ideas in code (and hopefully, also, verbally either while they code or in response to probing questions from the interviewer).

Forget what everyone says. Just use Ubuntu (like, regular Ubuntu, not some stupid derivative) with everything default. It's what you're looking for. It takes zero configuration, is super easy to use and is a nice environment.

It is getting ripped up, but all the new people on the platform are unaware of how much better it was before. I don't think anybody has issues changing things to make them better for newcomers as long as Apple doesn't throw out all of their design principles to do it (which is what they have been doing).
if you want to be pedantic, it is the speed of light. Just not the speed of light in vacuum :)
It should be a joke, though.

It's one thing to hack for fun or to find new uses for hardware and software. It's another to live in a world where we purchase devices for hundreds of dollars, only to have a bait-and-switch on the software and suddenly we get ads on our splash page and a slower UI.

I'm glad there are workarounds, but they _shouldn't be needed_.
This is kind of a vacuous argument. Once something leaves the confines of 4chan, the origin doesn't matter. The intention behind the action matters. If white supremacists are using it as a signal, it is a de facto white supremacist symbol.

And by the way you're trying to move the goalposts, I'd have to say you're from Tennessee. At first your argument was that "it's from 4chan, it was a joke, it didn't count". And now, your argument is "words are powerless unless you give them power". Which, is the sort of aphorism I'd expect from Ricken.

Symbols are important because they serve to signal to others what is and is not accepted. Or who are members of your in-group, whatever those groups may be. If I go to a sporting event, I can choose to adorn myself in the symbols of one team or another to indicate support of that team. And that tells complete strangers if I'm inclined to cheer with them or against them.

Don't be obtuse.

> The question is why would you want to?

To make it as easy as possible for people to transition from x86 to arm - having a compatible firmware interface means you don't need to entirely rewrite your deployment tooling when you start deploying arm servers.

> Your BIOS has a bunch of boot hooks that have to run before UEFI starts

What? There is no BIOS on a UEFI system.

> UEFI has to have all of its own drivers for storage and filesystems, just to load an OS kernel that has another driver suite.

Well, yes, you need to have the ability to access the hardware that the OS is on in order to get to the OS. The only way you avoid that is to put the kernel in flash and jump to it directly, but then you're incompatible with existing general-purpose operating systems.
Well when the M1 came out it was dramatically better than everything else available to Mac users outside some small use-cases (like Mac Pro + multi-GPU).

Yes, I've mentioned elsewhere that they really should have gone all in on copying Apple and not only make the Dev kit cheaper, but issue a credit on future hardware purchases if the Dev returns the Dev kit when they get done porting their software.

It's not like you want to keep something this underwhelming forever at that price point.
Very interesting. It's good to be often reminded how things pop culture representations of historical times can present something that I as a layman would consider plausible (pig rolling in the mud in a medieval town? checks out!), but is not really accurate. Of course the pig is just one symptom and there will be many more such things.

Probably increasing use of AI to generate art may amplify such things. Not quite the same, but think AI colorization of historical photographs that just need to look plausible - correctness is not the objective.
The USB waves hands everything is a masterclass in how not to name things.
Again, you're implicitly assuming the representation has to be a string of digits. I'm not sure that I can convince you, or even what to convince you of, as you aren't accepting the premises of the argument. The numbers +/- 1% of Graham's number can be trivially represented with a program. Likewise, here's some people codegolfing programs to output Graham's number[1]. If it seems like I'm cheating by using too powerful of a method, that's the point that the original person was making: there exist real numbers that can't be described even like this.

The problem with nukes is that one cannot make them small while there no corresponding limits on downsizing of sensors to detect them.

While we are still some way of mosquito-size device to detect presence of a nuclear warhead, the path is there. So ultimately one must assumes that all warhead decoys or empty silos will be detected and real warheads will be tracked. Which unfortunately leaves production of massive number of warheads the only sure path of deterrence.

One of the reasons is the value assigned to spyware/crapware subsidises the cost of the physical product and increases over time in a race to the bottom. It's especially clear on items that the market suggests you need to upgrade every couple of years to keep them competitively priced, but even long cycle items like laptops and tvs are suffering from it.

To start with it looks like you're getting a discount from one manufacturer, but you can spend more for a clean slate, then they all abandon the clean slate models and you can't even buy control.

Apple's playbook is to use hardware support as a reason to drop software support to encourage (nudge?) customers to buy more hardware. Recently it has been dropping new macOS versions for non-metal GPUs and now (Monterey) not supporting SSDs without T2/Secure Enclave, and there are other examples before those. You get bit by this and decide if you want to stay on that train or get off. I was one-and-done with that ecosystem and my Late 2013 MacBook Pro.

Also you can still update that Mac Pro of yours to Monterey if you use the Open Core bootloader. It just requires going off the beaten path.

Nice. I'm excited because there are lots of different ways to run WASM on a server, different ABIs, different runtimes, etc etc. A big move like this might make it easier to standardize around some kind of server-side WASM happy path and also provide pressure to move some of the Wasi feature work along faster.

A great oil finishing with a strong black pepper taste is fairly achievable if you know where to look.

Zingerman's Mail Order does a phenomenal job of sourcing olive oils like this but also of specifically calling out the tasting notes and the differences in their options.

We used constellation shaping and a rate adaptive code to tailor tailor the bitrate of each channel. It varied between something along 64-QAM and 256-QAM depending on the SNR in the channel.

Post processing times were not too bad. It ran on a standard desktop computer and gave an estimate of the data rate in about a minute (can’t remember exactly). Of course, compared to actual transmission that is terrible slow, but that was only due to the implementation and need of this experiment.
To be clear the GOP is sending spam, and despite being given a tool that allows them to explicitly bypass spam protection (and so force gmail users to read that spam), they are still too incompetent to send email. Rather than making their spam less objectively spam like, this new salvo is “Google should be required to say what a political body wants it to say, and should be required to force its users to read that messaging”.

This is of course blatantly a first amendment violation, but clearly that doesn’t matter any more than the religious BS on us money, the constant attacks on people for being in sufficiently Christian or the wrong type of Christian, etc.
This appears to be the academic article https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/wh...

Since some people commenting here appear to do so based in the impression that women forcibly kidnapped from foreign populations would become the wives, also note that the main idea suggested is acquiring wealth and social standing to compete for the shortage of eligible wives in their own culture.

These algorithmic mediums are now part and parcel of how people communicate. The solution is to either disable or take out the algorithmic component entirely because if the algorithms are doing the curation then there will continue to be an increase in political polarization because politically polarized users tend to spend more time on Facebook and Twitter which increases their revenue. Fixing the underlying problem essentially amounts to removing the profit motive from social media companies and making them non-profits that report to the users instead of corporate shareholders.

For context, I'm a pre-seed startup CTO and ex Googler who's probably conducted 50-100 interviews.

In short, "it gives some signal, it's easy, it requires less infra, and it's common so people won't criticize you for it".

- It gives some signal: I can generally rule out people who are clearly unable to write basic code (loops, good variable names, not getting lost while retracing code). In my experience, this camp accounts for some 80%+ of the people coming in for interviews, even at Google.

- It's easy: the up-front costs of asking a Leetcode-type question are low. As an interviewer, I can prepare for such an interview well with 2-3 hours of question searching and an hour or so of doing the question myself. Contrast this with "closer to real" interview questions, where you may create an entire "fake project" for candidates to work in which may get leaked. It could easily take 10-20 hours to think of a "right size project" with natural extensions for candidates, which is an eternity as a hiring manager that's hiring because they're strapped for time

- It requires less infra: you don't need any sort of "shared environment to see and run code", timers to ensure that people don't spend too long on take home questions. All you need is a shared notepad or white board

- It's common so people won't criticize you for it: "Nobody ever got fired for choosing Microsoft". These types of things have a self-perpetuating nature where people cargo cult what works for large successful companies.

I don't at all endorse asking these types of interview questions and agree that there are better ones, but I do think it's important to acknowledge there are real reasons why they get asked.
