I'm looking for a junior front end or full stack development role.
>This Hollie Mengert’s style is (nice, but) not at all original. There are thousands of cartoons that look exactly like this. You could never even tell that anything like this is similar to “her” style.

Good point. As the article itself says, her style is explicitly based on Disney. This isn't like, say, Cubism, a style (intentionally) very different from the contemporary norm, and nothing like anything that had come before.
noncompete clauses are good if you actually get compensation for not working at a competitor. e.g. firms paying you a decent salary for ~2 years after your employment is over. signing a blanket noncompete without compensation is the problem.
I know this thread isn't for people to poke your business plan but this one really makes no sense. The crypto aspect doesn't seem to be relevant. You're using USD to buy US treasuries and keeping the dividends to distribute via GiveDirectly. What is the crypto even doing? This is just a mutual fund with more steps. You're trying to raise $9.2T to give to GiveDirectly. An utterly implausible goal. You make it sound like Glo is doing some kind of work but it's just obscuring that you're asking people to donate interest they could be accruing for themselves. This is still 100% dependent on US fiscal and monetary policy.

There are probably many such vulnerabilities in this giant code base, being exploited by those who have resources to find them.

If OpenSSL is written in Rust, to what extent will the vulnerabilities be reduced (assuming that Rust is supported by the host, of course)?
The problem with this argument is that it's founded in how the AI is used, not how it is made. It's not a compelling reason to ban the tool, it's a compelling reason to regulate its use.

Copilot can produce code verbatim, but it doesn't unless you specifically set up a situation to test it. It requires things like "include the exact text of a comment that exists in training data" or "prefix your C functions the same way as the training data does".

In everyday use, my experience has been that Copilot draws extensively from files that I've opened in my codebase. If I give Copilot a function body to fill in in a class I've already written, it will use my internal APIs (which aren't even hosted on GitHub) correctly as long as there are 1-2 examples in the file and I'm using a consistent naming convention. This isn't copypasta, it really does have a clear understanding of the semantics of my code.

This is why I'm not in favor of penalizing Microsoft and GitHub for creating Copilot. I think there needs to be some regulation on how it is used to make sure that people aren't treating it as a repository of copypasta, but the AI itself is pretty clearly capable of producing non-infringing work, and indeed that seems to be the norm.

> What's the use case for sharing passwords?

There's plenty.

> I sure hope not.

Why? I'm not suggesting to have an extension that has access to your file system. Bitwarden has browser extension that communicates to Bitwarden vault via HTTP and it's easy to autofill passwords or generate new credentials.

For throwaway accounts or demo accounts or any kind of new web service/app accounts, it's easy to memorize username and autogenerate a strong, safe password which are saved to vault.

You have the access to that same vault from a different device (smartphone etc), it makes interacting with passwords and its storage extremely easy and without mistakes.
I would be fascinated to hear anyone with a grasp on this.

It seems a very bad idea to fire (up to) 2GW of (microwave?) energy

Is this a feasible weapon ? (Given that microwave "cannons" are developed and banned for anti-riot / protestors this seems feasible.

I read it as: the company doesn't have set pricing but rather has a sales person/department that will charge you more than the next person for the exact same product/service if they have any reason to suspect they can get away with it after learning as much as they can about your finances and only after wasting your time on a high pressure sales pitch.

If someone refuses to openly list prices they're either:

- Embarrassed by the amount of money they're charging

- Aware they charge more than others and don't want to let you comparison shop easily

- Planning on setting as high a price as possible depending on how much you can be fleeced into paying

Well, not exactly. Things till functions and functor are part of almost every big enough theory like set theory or even just natural numbers and used everywhere, and if arrows are only used for describing that, I wouldn't say it is application of category theory.

Only point of category theory starts when you go higher than that and deal with more abstract and generalizable things e.g monads(which again is used in other theories), bigger infinities, ordering of infinities etc.

Kudos to Wire architects and leadership for spending years to bring IETF MLS (encrypted group messaging) to fruition, pulling together a coalition that included input from Cisco, Facebook, Google, INRIA, Matrix/Element, MIT, Mozilla and Twitter. Haven't seen any public statements from Signal about MLS.

The founders of Wire previously contributed to the Opus HD audio code that laid the groundwork for WebRTC, now ubiquitous in remote/WFH conferencing products. With the IETF MLS protocol for encrypted group messages now defined, interoperability between messenger services is the next step.

This IETF MIMI group may be small, but they are not starting from scratch, as interoperability was often discussed, and deferred to this anticipated project, during IETF MLS protocol design.

> And it's worth highlighting what parasocial marketing means: it means exploiting natural desire of people to form bonds, in order to peddle wares. It's another kind of abusing people for profit.

I get why that sounds bad, but is it always bad? Is there something inherently bad about the movie podcasts I’ve listened to for 10 years having brief Squarespace sponsor breaks?

Does the badness go away when I subscribe on Patreon and get ad-free episodes? I mean either way they are “exploiting my natural desire to form bonds and using that for financial benefit.” And yet, it doesn’t feel that bad to me. It feels like I’m just paying for original creative content, even though it’s true that a big part of why I like the content is the parasocial relationship I have with the hosts.

PicoRV32 and FemtoRV32 are both excellent, conventional RISC-V implementations, and are more complete and proven than Minimax. Relative to the size of any 7-series or newer Xilinx FPGA, the difference in LUT cost between any of the three is pretty minor. I think you made a perfectly defensible decision. (I love me some SERV, too, and if you are willing to spend orthodoxy to save gates, it's an excellent choice too.)

IKEA probably thinks they own that particular color scheme(big yellow letters on a blue building). Similar to how Deutsche Telekom(T-Mobile parent) thinks they own a particular shade of pink and sends a c&d to any webmaster who so much as uses that HTML color code as a background tag for an unrelated blog. The only way to have a semblance of free expression on the modern internet is using Tor,cryptocurrency,and offshore hosting to protect your identity from these overzealous legal firms.

> nushell seems to have better way of parsing the string-only outputs of other commands.

Yup. In addition to that `parse` command, Nu also has a suite of `from` commands that trivially convert other data formats to Nu tables. CSV, JSON, TOML, XML, YAML, and many more.

So if you're working with a program that can emit, say, JSON, you just do `some_external_command | from json` and boom, you've got a Nu table.
I was hand-rolling my own. I had it doing a basic 640x480 buffer with some basic character generation and sprite support & HDMI/DVI output

These days I'd probably consider forking my friend Randy's C64 VICII implementation (VIC-II Kawari) and just expand framebuffer size, sprites, colours, etc, since he put so much work into it.

It was a lot of fun, but I got stalled on the SD card interface. That was more complexity than I felt with dealing at that point. And I was working at Google at the time and so they owned all my thoughts and deeds and going through the open sourcing process for it would have been a hassle. If I wasn't hunting for work and needing to make $$ right now, I'd pick it up again maybe? Was more of a verilog learning process.
Article author here, interesting question! We didn't run into that issue, explicitly.

Our setup was effectively as follows:
- AWS Lambda functions being spawned in us-east-1, from a separate AWS sub account.
- Connections were all made to the public address provisioned for MySQL protocol access to PlanetScale, using port 3306. The infrastructure did also reside in us-east-1.
- Between the Vitess components themselves, and once inside our own network boundaries, we use gRPC to communicate.

Since the goal we set was to hit one million, and realizing we were staying just barely within the limits of the Lambda default quotas, we didn't aggressively try to push beyond that. Some members of our infrastructure team did notice what appeared to be some kind of rate limiting when running the tests multiple times consecutively. Many tests before and after succeeded with no such issues, so we attributed it to a temporary load balancer quirk, but it might be worth going back to confirm if this is the behavior we saw.
1. Thanks for pointing this out. I have been playing around with different versions of the copy. I have been struggling to get something concise that explains the idea.

Could not find an email on the profile. I have a potential idea which maybe we can discuss. Would help you to answer some of the questions/concerns mentioned in the comments.
Why? Companies usually buy something to make more money with or avoid losses, either directly, or indirectly. If something costs 500k a year but helps make the company 10M, or prevent a 10M hack, that's a win-win in my book.

> I love Apple haters- They rarely ever make sense and just come off as bitter.

Whether I hate or love Apple as a company doesn't (inversely) weigh in on my opinion on Google - same sh*t different mafia :)

To be fair, I "love" (some) Apple products and software, though they tend to be older incarnations. (But that's true for almost anything - newer versions become too "loud" for me.) Conversely, I "hate" some business practices (and tech choices).

But I'm not a fanboy of either, I just occasionally come across their products.

And I agree on the comment on the Android ecosystem. Which goes some way to say that a totalitarian mafia is better than a laissez-faire mafia.

I wonder whether this also means that cathedrals are better than bazaars?

Having worked on pricing strategy, this is not what I've seen as the norm in B2B. If you're talking to an early company that is still working on product market fit, maybe, and definitely if you ask for your own features.

If you're talking to larger companies, thing FAANG, then they have a list price and discount levels that can act as incentives, levers or there are other options for inducement. Otherwise, you give the sales team the authority on go-to-market strategy while they are executing individual deals (tactics). Senior sales leaders can authorize some of those discounts and any special inducements or incentives have to be custom written into contracts by legal + deal desk, making them more time intensive and less desirable.

People post in the garbage area all the time. It saves a lot of moderation work and everyone from my experience seemed better off for it.

Venting can be quite therapeutic but without an audience it isn't as effective.

Also, the community developed a bit of a stigma towards people with garbage posts outside of the designated area. Politely, in order to not themselves be stigmatized.
Yes, PicoRV32 is very nice. However for what I was building, with limited RAM, compressed instructions would have made a lot of sense. I started porting a BASIC to my system (in C), and it quite easily would have filled almost the whole 512kB SRAM.

And the thought of handwriting one in RISC-V assembly convinced me that maybe RISC-V wasn't as "retro friendly" as I would have liked.

The problem with “love your country and fellow citizens” is that even the most benign form of it becomes “my country and fellow citizens are better than everybody else”.

(1) The south is big. Really big. I am aware of neighborhoods like the one you describe, especially for those who can afford it. Glad you found a corner that works for you but I'm talking about general trends and comparing mediocre midsouth neighborhoods to mediocre northeast neighborhoods, ie the environment an average person must endure, not just what CAN be had if you have the resources and awareness to seek it out.

Nevertheless, prior to moving to the midsouth i did not realize this was an amenity I needed to have on my radar, as this does not happen in the northeast

(2) I'm not even talking about infrastructure. I'm talking about trying to walk anyway despite having bad walking infra, being willing to do so, trying it, and having issues due to PEOPLE and their attitudes.

(3) I said mid south, not south (roughly, texas and its surrounding "client states"... Arguably maybe Missouri. US regional taxonomy is hard and somewhat subjective). It's bad enough I'm generalizing about a whole region, at the very least I want to narrow it down a little more than just "the south"
