I didn't know what those were, but going by https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/adjustment-layers.h...

You can do all the same stuff in the gimp, but it's just a little more laborious (or a lot more laborious if you're used to photoshop already I guess). The gimp lets you easily do all the same transformations, copy and reapply transformations, etc. It seems like the adjustment layer keeps the original image and the transformations to make it easier to repeatedly tinker with those adjustments and reapply them more quickly, though.

Coming back to this, I understand your previous post about "this" now. :D Apologies on misunderstanding that the first time around!
Financials are often reported in "constant dollars" and inflated dollars so you can see the impact of both.
I have to agree, we could save the world a lot of wasted energy if there were a way to get statisticians off of R/matlab and into more 'portable' spaces.
Diablo started out as a graphical roguelike, with turn-based combat and permadeath. David Breivik says they removed the permadeath when they decided to go realtime (good call). I personally wouldn't call Diablo a roguelike but it's a very close relative. When it came out people commented that it was basically big budget Angband.
Never tried BetterSnapTool, from screenshots it looks very similar.
Until annual card-related expenses reach the equivalent of paying someone to personally guard your money, it's immaterial.
There's a recent alternative called PhotoGIMP that is trying to accomplish the same thing, not sure if it's based on the original GIMPshop.

Ha. There's still people on CS1.6. I dip in a play a couple games every now and again. I found a server, not too long ago, that was running a full conversion Rocket League mode. Occasionally, you could see a flash showing that you're just a CT/T wielding a knife before the custom graphics load in and you're playing soccer with rocket propelled cars.
Our real algo: We save a bunch of objects, but some of then exist in the DB, so you need to intersect what’s in the DB with what’s in memory before saving, except you can never hold all of the db at once.

It should be our real-life test, but it’s too long. It’s our most complicated algo, and honestly it’s very simple in the end. But given all the variables scattered around in a string.contains() (I don’t even look whether the result is correct, I look whether it’s structured for intelligibility and how they debug the off-by-1 errors), I can’t suppose a more complex algo will be done cleanly.

Maybe I’m mot giving them their chance - It might have taken time for me to output clean algorithms.

Umm, they published many books about it, TIKHAL and PIKHAL by the Shulgins being the most famous.
Good luck to you. Going through a job hunt is tricky. It sounds like you have an interested company and I hope it works out. Keep pushing.

> They all want innovative problem solvers with deep knowledge but don't ask the interview questions that would show that up.

The hiring process is a quintessentially human process so you're going to experience many different types of people.

Keep focused on enthusiastic service. Focus on showing how you can help the company out with their mission. Research the company ahead of time and build a case that you are ready to communicate to the hiring team. Answer their questions honestly and directly but if they don't ask great questions, no big deal, just proactively fill that gap with good reasons why they should bring you on.

Gimp is a great idea but is a non-starter because of the incredibly disturbing name. I've never heard of photopea before today, but I'm sure glad there's a good alternative.

Edit: here’s what gimp means:

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gimp

1. Derogatory term for disabled person

2. Insult meaning stupid person

3. Male sex slave

That's not quite what the museum page says:

"Vasa lay in the grimy waters in Stockholm for 333 years. After all these years in the water the ship was attacked by bacteria and rust.Vasa was slowly decomposing, and is still doing so today, due to a number of different factors. The museum is conducting world-leading research on how to counteract these decomposition processes. And considering the age, we must say that Vasa is in an impressive shape. Our goal is to preserve Vasa for a thousand years."

Middle mouse button click for any link. I don't remember the last time I used back. Just open and close tabs based on what I want to do. I learned this during research methods in graduate school as a way to avoid losing valuable studies while working on the various archaic databases, and it stuck. I know every graduate student at my university learned the same thing.

I also assumed most people did this.

A good generalist will not change your tech stack on the fly. Of course that’s a bad idea.

I think what GP meant is more like they will be willing to change what they are working on day to day in response to what you learn from the market, and will be fine with throwing lots of things away if they don’t work.

If you focus on foundational work too much that comes with the trade off that you can’t spend as much time building features. It’s common to see engineers fall into this trap.
>I suppose what it really does is finds you people who are willing to put in the time to study all the hundreds of questions.

Yes, this is it.
Heavy usage to me is when you're rarely without and you're generally some level of high all the time. I used to smoke like that. I know many people who still do. Light to me is no more than once a day. A friend of mine takes at most a few hits in the evening and we call that light smoking. I'm somewhere in between that. It's quite OK to disagree.

Edit: I realized I said nothing about amount. I go through approximately 1/2 to 1 gram daily.
Yes, and you pay a 30% fee for that

I was getting those errors too a few days ago when I tried. However, the app does show my correct location. It either actually went through despite the error or is getting location in some other way as a backup.

Probably the latter since I think I did grant location privileges to the app.
Ah, nice find. They seem to imply plugins can be written in JS, with an API that _may_ be similar to Webpack, but definitely not drop-in compatible:

> We're planning on making Turbopack very flexible and extensible, but we're not planning 1:1 compatibility with Webpack … most Webpack plugins won't work out of the box with Turbopack. However, we're working on porting several of the most popular Webpack plugins to Turbopack.
> even at the cost of taxpayer dollars.

And not even a major cost. 50bn sounds like a lot to a layperson (and makes for great clickbait). We spend 700bn on military every year.

It's more jobs, especially different jobs. It's fewer imports (possibly not more exports with this isolationist trend we're seeing globally). There's more trust in the supply chain.

Ths article/propaganda is very short-sighted, as per usual.

Adjustment layers are a key part of a non-destructive editing workflow. Without them, doing professional work like retouching is much more difficult. GIMP's issue is that they don't seem to care about power user workflows.
Intuitively I'd say you're probably right. But computation theory is full of counter-intuitive results. Your statement might be provable by adapting the argument that Σ(n) is not always computable. Something like computing the sum would require solving some version of the halting problem.

Perhaps add a small edit to your article to highlight that this particular statement isn't to be taken as a mathematical proof?

Pretty much all of AWS Sydney data centers are within 100mi of each other,probably all Sydney data centers are, the entire city is in fact.

Plenty of geographical, power and environmental diversity there tho.

Weird, I'm in Foster City and felt the strongest shaking I've ever felt in my time in the Bay Area.
From that It’s clear you didn’t intend to minimize earthquakes in general which is good, it was just a matter of not the best wording/phrasing.

“Big yawn” is a loaded word:
It was not in the least terrifying and actually a big yawn; no known damage or injuries; …

Dismissing earthquakes:
nothing like all those San Andreas movies. …

Minimizing risk: in case there's a big aftershock, which there almost never is.

Comparing earthquakes to sporting events:
You want to worry about something that's actually broken, then worry about whether the US MNT will get it together to call up leading goalscorer Jordan Pefok by 13 Nov deadline for the World Cup

Experts believe a major quake in the Bay Area is “likely” (>=6.7) by 2032 per the usgs
I would definitely encourage everyone here to get an OBD-II dongle that connects via Bluetooth to a phone app like Torque. Saved me a fortune and helped me understand just what needs to be fixed. I don't know why these OBD-II codes aren't available through the dashboard touchscreen, but that's another rant.
The game seems to be to keep IaaS pricing high and tell people that use it that they're doing it wrong, they need to use our cloud-native offerings which will indeed lower their spend but increase lock-in. I suppose the counter to that is Kubernetes and other cloud-native-like abstractions on top of commodity IaaS so at least you can somewhat easily move between cloud providers and seek better pricing.

From what I can tell it's a cat and mouse game of who can lock-in and who can abstract away, and I assume it's been going on for longer than I've been at this.
My biggest pain point is the ads at the end of the video (on TV). they are completely unexpected and hold the 'related videos' hostage until you finished watching so you cannot jump to next. sure you could hit back but then YT takes you to home screen and you've lost all history. overall a poorly designed navigation but agree that basically its not fun to watch on TV anymore. its too bad because YT's main selling point was casual viewing.
What is interesting is that the IITs in India (the first 5 at least) were setup a decade prior (late 50s), and some had very heavy support from American and European universities while setting up. So much so that IIT Kanpur actually had a CS department that started in 1963!

Measles is still a ridiculous comparison. The only comparison is influenza, SARS or something along those lines.
True.

Still, one single case 15 years ago doesn't prove the whole industry is permanently tainted.

>The reporter here could still be mixing categories. Ford has thinky computer chips for their infotainment systems, but not enough dumb chips that control the heated seats.

Automotive EE. It’s nearly entirely this.

No one that sees how vehicles are made would ever follow the recipe if they were concerned about a chip shortage.

Driver seats, with 8 modules in them. That’s at least 8 micros, at least 8 switching power supplies, at least 8 bootloaders, applications, verifications, 8 different (ish) suppliers, etc. The reality is most of those are more than 8.

There is a movement going on right now that next gen goes back to larger computers like Tesla does. Which is how Tesla was able to say they were so nimble during shortage. They aren’t; they just had a lot less to do.

Current system is bad. But don’t worry, we’ll screw up the next one too!
This really is the crux of the problem - I don’t think Apple “deserves” 30% cut[1], but I would rather pay with Apple Pay if necessary, or through iAP than give my CC, name, address, email, … to more companies, certainly not any of those ones that have sketch approach to security, or explicitly sell your info for profit.

[1] I think that there is an argument to be made that the store fee subsidizes everything that people don’t generally pay Apple for explicitly, which makes it possible for free/cheap apps to exist. I don’t personally feel like that argument reaches 30% however.

Japan has had this for years, but California's app for this is still in beta IIRC.

It's funny to me that one of the world's tech capitals has taken so long to get this rolling. To be fair, California doesn't have earthquakes as regularly as Japan (at least not of the same magnitude). I guess this is another symptom of our crumbling institutions in the US, we only get services quickly if there's a profit to be made. In the popular imagination, innovation is only the domain of private companies.
I don’t understand why anyone would pay that much for YouTube premium- isn’t it just no ads, and background play? In what universe is that worth £16/$12 a month?? You could get two “real” streaming services for that if you pushed it a little.

Do you? Prove it. Your textual output here will do nothing to prove you know suffering and joy any more than GPT-3 would be able to.

For what it's worth, I don't like where AI generated content is going either, but to disregard it as worthless (instead of simply lacking conscience) is not helpful.
Here is more feedback. Installation of everything is a little bit hairy... It didn't work in my fish shell but I had to switch to zsh to make it work...

Small things like that.

When there are public calls to ban bots, hate speech and every other thing on a platform, then platforms start banning people. There is very little cost to them for a false positive so they have no reason not to be a little over zealous. There is little value in having a good support team for people that don't pay. So there is no recourse when you get caught under the ban hammer. These large platforms are not serving the users they're serving the advertisers. That is the business model. They just have to keep enough people happy to retain critical mass.
It's going to be interested to see how this impacts things like the national guard, whom are state employees. I expect lots of lawsuits in the coming years over mandated vaccination and the continued disclosures is going to make it worse. I fully suspect this is why the government agencies fought tooth and nail on releasing covid-19 vaccination test data.

I'm vaccinated, but it's very clear a lot of what was presented wasn't just incorrect but materially false. That should concern everyone.
As recently as the early 90's, making a lifetime career out of software development was considered impossible. When I was starting out in the late 80's all the developers were taking classes or had a side business, with the goal getting out of "programming" before it was too late. Even those who wanted to stay in the industry took every opportunity to talk directly with clients so they could get into sales or marketing.
People are so quick on HN to say "why does company X need 1000 employees when clearly it could be done with 10?" but I find people tend not the ask the even more obvious question "Why does company X need 100,000 employees when they seemed to be doing just fine with 50,000?"

I do get that there is a lot of extra complexity that goes from a startup solving a hard technical problems to a pre-IPO company that is solving a bunch of business problems as well as technical challenges. Yes companies gain less efficiency per hire as they grow, and many do grow for growth's sake these days, but it does make sense that some companies need a thousand people to do what a startup thinks they can do with 10.

But it certainly doesn't seem like Google is making great use of doubling headcount. On a product by product basis, at least for me, it feels like most Google products are worse than they were pre-pandemic.

If they had shown revenue growth highly correlated with headcount I would see strong evidence that my view is wrong, but the facts don't seem to point that way.
