Any change in absorption is going to be minuscule in comparison to the difference in calories one gets from all the excess sugar.

> ...when I pointed out that the values that the hash key relyed upon must not change, for the life of the hash map.

Now I'm wondering about something like:

MutableHashMap<MutableKey<T1>, Value<T2>>

You could probably have they key be a container object and allow changing its internal value, which would then communicate to the hash map that it belongs to, that it should do some internal changes:

Entry<MutableKey<String>, Value<SomeEntity>> entry = mutableHashMap.getEntryByKey("myKey");
entry.setKey("myNewKey");

That logic could take an internal hash map, remove the element by the old key and add it with the new key. So, to an outside user it would seem like you can change the keys.

The only problem would be that depending on the language you're using, you wouldn't change the objects directly, but would use those containers and it would essentially just be some boilerplate around a regular hash map. For example, Java has MutableInt and similar classes, which here would be hooked up to the MutableHashMap that they belong to.

Then again, I can't come up with many cases where something like that would be nice to have, since if you want to "change" a key, you can just do the following manually:

var ourValue = myHashMap.get("myKey");
myHashMap.remove("myKey");
myHashMap.put("myNewKey", ourValue);

If I understand it correctly, Nhost depends on S3.

So Nhost is either not vendor-neutral, or must be used alongside with AGPL S3 implementations.
I would be cautious about going down this road. For context, I have YT channel with >12k subscribers that is also for technical content. When I was similarly early on, I found myself in a similar place, thinking a lot about growth and metrics. I came to realize that I was playing the game that YT wanted me to play, to their benefit.

Since chasing "more" never ends, and every surpassed hurdle results in yet another one in the distance, it can quickly lead to burnout and asking yourself questions like, "why am I even doing this?". Worse, focusing too much on the metrics can cause you to do things that are ultimately counter-productive. For example, making a ton of videos optimized for clicking so that I could get 1M subscribers and monetize with ads is clearly a thing YT would like me to do. But to do that, you lean a little more into click-baity things, and start choosing topics based on their likelihood of being successful from a metrics perspective. And since frequency matters, you maybe cut corners on videos because it often makes more sense to put out more of lower quality than less of high quality if the objective is maximizing metrics. But then what are you left with, and are you proud of it?

If I could do it again, I would spent more time on answering the "what's it for?" question, and then ignore the metrics unless your answer ends up being, "To become the Mr. Beast of X". In my experience, the best benefits have been 1/ the serendipitous view that impresses someone and leads to a real-world opportunity and 2/ pride and reputational benefits in having the best video on a particular topic that then becomes the standard, and adds lots of value to lots of people. Those benefits are realized by taking care and making the best videos you possibly can, not by optimizing the metrics.

I couldn't agree more. clickhouse-local is great as a CLI tool as well as a relay for web driven functions, delivering all the clickhouse functionality and speed for ad-hoc tasks with local or remote storage on S3, Parquet files, etc.

Not a good idea. Your example already has flaws. An AI could perform on a larger scale, but the result would be worse. Probably far worse.

I specifically don't want any editor for online content. Just don't make it boring or worse turn everything into astroturfing. Masks are a good example already.

Thanks for reading. Fully agree on web being both more forgiving, and ultimately more complex than embedded development.

I do think however that a C-spin loop can benefit from knowing JS promise style. One of my proudest libraries is a monadic task system based on futures, that handles cancellation, introspection, error handling and user interaction, in a static memory constrained system. It makes some more complex interactions like:
- move the motor until the limit switch is hit
- if the limit switch is not hit within 15 seconds, activate the fan for 5 seconds
- if the motor controller fails to respond, then activate the fan but show a red LED
- if at any point the temperature sensor goes above 30C, interrupt the motor moves by slowing down the motor first
- if at any point the user cancels, turn on the fan before slowing down the motor to a stop

This makes for a mad state machine, but is actually not that complex in a task kind of write up.

I plan to write much more about this topic, including the fact that embedded is a lot of "library" work (managing datasheets and different architectures and sensor versions and register locations), while web work can be a lot of "keeping up with the joneses" (in terms of UX, frameworks, cloud tech, etc...).

You contribute to anti-remote work sentiment by doing this.
It's so important to maintain a healthy work/life balance and to have a healthy distance from work, but in this case the emergency is manufactured and the result of disappointment is being publicly fired. Ie: Go home over the weekend if you want, but you don't come in on Monday if you do. Doesn't make for a healthy workplace, but unfortunately that's the situation Twitter employees now find themselves in.

"an emergency on your part does not necessarily constitute an emergency on mine".
Don't be ridiculous, there's nothing perfect about a society like that.

When you infringe on the rights of another human being, you put yourself at their mercy. Some people are not very reasonable. Legal or illegal, you just might find yourself attacked by that person, possibly killed. Even if you make laws against it, there's always that danger. Every time you violate the rights of another person you're risking your life, and it doesn't matter what the law says.

Yep that exactly, which is interesting as the ESP32 in comparison usually still manages to connect and lets you break execution despite being stuck in a loop with main.py, even with blocking timers set up. Frankly the WebREPL on the ESP is about as reliable as the Pico is via USB cable.

I've never lost any code on the ESP, but on the Pico just as you're nearing deployment and want to test run at boot you run into the easy pitfall of having to delete all of your files to unbrick the thing. Luckily I hadn't written much by that point yet.

I'd assumed that it's because the ESP runs the repl backend and the user code on separate cores, but the Pico is also dual core which would mean it could do the same. Yet it does not. I'm more convinced that the implementation is just kinda bad instead.

> Stripe is a hugely successful company and they have no urgent material need to let people go

Indirectly, what you are suggesting is that the company string people along for as long as possible and give them busy work. So people would get the money, but not their time.

What Stripe did with their severance package is give employees both the money and their time back. Few people would likely prefer still having to go to a pointless job.

(And of course Stripe had an urgent need to let people go, they wouldn't have the money to pay such significant, if any, severance.)

There is no "zero costs" way to operate an economy. If we increase the long-term responsibilities of a company to their employees - as opposed to giving the same amount of safety net via public means - it will have a significant impact on willingness to hire.

Stripe's severance package, which is as generous or more so than the most advanced democratic socialist countries, is about as good as one can hope or should hope to get from a company.

If longer benefits are desired, the voters of California would need to come together on that and figure out how to finance it. But conflating the LA homeless / drug crisis with the 14-week severance packages for high skilled workers doesn't add up.

(Side notes: the perception of job loss in Japan is drastically different than in the U.S. and the Bank of Japan has been lending money at near zero rates for decades. The result has been a plethora of zombie companies.)

These types of messages carry more weight when they're not too frequent; in the history of Rust we've posted three such messages. If we posted them too frequently they would lose impact. So we draw attention to things that have had recent developments/events, and where fresh attention seems like it may prove helpful. (See also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33453262)

If we started posting about every terrible wrong in the world, we'd have multiple announcements per day, and they'd have zero impact.

Rust is an international project with participation from all over the world. Whether any particular country is allied with another has zero impact on the discussions that lead to these announcements.

Banned users can still post. Their posts are autokilled.

There have been a handful (fewer than 10) extreme cases over the years where we temporarily blocked someone from posting, but that almost never happens—it's an emergency measure.

For anyone wondering why we allow certain banned accounts to keep posting, even though what they post is so dreadful, the answer is that if we didn't, they would just create a new account and that new account would start off unbanned, which would be a step backwards.

The snap distribution is unofficial. The Signal team only provides .deb files for Linux (seemingly built for Ubuntu Xenial) and any other distribution method on Linux is strictly done by volunteers.

If Signal is willing to leverage the DMCA to take down the Snap package, they could just as easily take down any other unofficial repository.

If you wish to solve this problem, write a letter to your favourite American legislator to protest the stupid way the DMCA is set up or contact Signal legal and tell them their use of the DMCA is bad for the open ecosystem that they operate in.

Someone freely choosing to grab an unofficial version of Signal from the store of their preference isn't the problem here.
Show HN: RealSkillz – PR based homework assignments, for hireing developers
RealSkillz helps you assess your developer candidates through real-world technical assignments.
From several sources and also our own experience, we think that the process of hiring developers is broken.

Currently most of the available interview platforms only provide arbitrary interview tasks their candidates.
Most of the developer jobs does not require heavy algorithmic skills. Still most of the interviews focus on that.
We think this is painful for the developers and for the companies alike.

As a developer, you need to maintain a very specific set of skill just for your interviews, while you can rarely show how you really shine in a more realistic coding scenario.
As a company, you select your candidate by an irrelevant interview task, having limited knowledge how the candidate works in a daily setting.

RealSkillz aims to fix this broken hireing process by generating pull request based homework assignments for developer candidates.

You might consider the fact that some folks have a different work ethic and approach to their careers than you do.

Also if I haven’t “realized” it in the 35 years that I have been doing this sort of thing…that perhaps there is nothing eventually to realize.
Prior to social media, it was basically impossible for any random person to get a platform for their speech, so nobody really thought about it.

Now, like electricity and water, it's become so fundamentally entwined with modern living that folks see it (maybe rightfully) as a common right.

edit: I'm not sure it's generational as much - the folks complaining about it the loudest seem to be older, non-technical folks.

To be honest, Oprah's content in my opinion was miles better than Mr. Beast's. She was at least conducting interviews, having conversations etc.

At least her videos weren't, "look at minecraft funny game - my friend made a poop sound hehe" or "omg look at kiddy pool filled with ORBEEZ FUN TIME"

Candidly, with a hilariously not successful youtube but a solid career - I find it funny to imagine Mr. Beast "spending hours" coming up with "next level content" which in reality you'd be better off just paying a 7 year old with jolly ranchers to do.
Browsers support QUIC with self signed certificates. It doesn't work with HSTS but that is by-design.
I think describing it this way misses an important implication. It's not a singular third tactic - it's that AIs generally lack the ability to recognize actions as being outside or against their training, meaning you can manipulate their internal state by acting in ways they were not trained to expect. Or, to put it another way, where humans recognize trolling, AIs will take trolling seriously forever.

This is an extension of the problem with ML in general, which is that ML struggles to recognize when its judging a situation that is outside its training. In those circumstances they have a high chance to emit bad judgements with high confidence.
> The only things typically up for negotiation is the sign on bonus/equity and base pay. If you start trying to negotiate vacations and holidays, you're going to look pretty silly.

The quote is literally

>Go to Puerto Rico fix you abuelas roof and stay living there

I don't think it's a leap to relate that to go back where you came from, and I don't think other people think that either - since the wikipedia page literally cites as an example of this racist trope.... Donald Trump saying

>Why don't they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came...

Who did he say that in reference to? AOC.

So it's not really a leap is it. But what I'm interested in, is that you claim to read a different meaning into this, so be specific, what do you think the person posting in reply to AOC meant by that?

> Are you aware that the majority of STEM seats in Indian colleges are set aside for either affirmative action for ‘lower’ castes (itself an arbitrary criteria) and women?

And these seats are never filled and go to upper castes anyway?

My class was supposed to be 50% low caste with 25% Dalits in a class of 60. There were literally 2 Dalits in my class. And of late, the OBC categories are being crowded in by upper castes through political action.

A whole 50% of my class was actually "payment seats" where they paid double the fees to get seats with low entrance scores. Basically, a 50% quota for the privileged.

That is correct. However, I work as a consultant and deal with a lot of senior execs at large companies (mostly non-tech) and I can tell you that they are all in a panic right now and expect an absolute economic bloodbath next year. It's going to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. It really feels like Wile E Coyote after he's run off a ledge but hasn't realized it or started falling yet. Very weird.

It's interesting, but still a small sample size in a single country with potentially similar gut microbiomes. It would be much more meaningful to do the same study across different parts of the world and with a larger number of people. I think in some parts of the world it might be difficult to find enough people who don't consume any artificial sweeteners. If you never consume any and now take the test amounts, is that different than consuming it for many years? Could the effect of the test in people not continuously exposed to the sweeteners be different than those who use it routinely?
