Seriously though, all I'm saying is that its good to define acronyms somewhere on a landing page. It can be at the bottom. In the footer even. This shouldn't really be controversial.

You're sortof asking how could I not know what CI is. So I'll expand on that a bit.

- firstly, it doesn't matter if you think everyone knows it, the industry is deeper and wider than people think. So its polite and good practice to define acronyms. Granted part of the problem here is that this hit the front page of HN so the audience suddenly became a lot wider than the author perhaps expected.

- me, personally, in my 40 years I've encountered continuous integration but not enough to see the letters CI and immediately think of CI. And when you encounter a random link on HN it could be anything. Maybe there's some new AI buzzword I havent heard of, called (say) Customizable Intelligence and its like modular AI models and its the big new thing but I havent encountered it before, and people are calling it CI.

- ok so I could peruse the page and eventually figure out that they are talking about continuous integration rather than some other thing. Or I could google it. But why make me do detective work like that? To me not defining the acronyms makes it seem like the author is stuck in a little subculture and can't imagine anything outside of it. It kindof puts me off. You could think of it as the textual equivalent of a code smell. Its make me think they're just down a trendy jargon rabbithole and I've seen enough of those over the years. (I'm not saying they are in this case, just saying that to me the lack of definitions put me off)

But Ok as I said above this is perhaps something that the author never expected to reach such a wide audience so I'll shut up now. But in general I believe in defining acronyms. Because there's just too damn many of them.
I don't disagree here. My point was just that the interest that you see on exchanges is not directly related to the stablecoins.

I'm not sure if there are any legal or regulatory issues that would prevent stablecoins from getting those certifications. Tether definitely looks sketchy, but USDC has regular audits with public results.

Yeah, this was my assumption when I read the original comment, so I was confused about what it was saying (I thought it was suggesting you should pass references instead of doing a bitwise-copy most of the time, which is just plausible enough that I believed it for a minute) until I read further down in the thread and realized they meant implicit heap-cloning

> You don't get a choice about COVID getting into your body, and that is far worse than whatever possible long term effects of the vaccine might be.

You don't know that, because we don't know what the "long term effects of the vaccine" actually are.
Yeah, I was clarifying a sentiment, not starting a debate about a complex topic. This was actually a policy debate topic back when I was in school, it's very tired ground -.-

I understand that you disagree, and you probably have thought-out reasons for that. You'll just have to understand that I do as well, and we can both skip the hours of wasted time where we try to convince each other (or an imaginary audience).

I doubt that since it’s their own code but I’d easily believe that it hits an API endpoint which just started malfunctioning.

Java was derived from a language called Oak, which was intended to run on set-top boxes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oak_(programming_language)

The 1990s had two big things: The Web and cable TV. The smart money was on convergence, which meant that the Web would merge with cable TV and create something entirely new. This happened, kinda, but not in the way people back then imagined; as it turns out, "Cable TV" + "The Internet" = "The Internet" so "Convergence" is just doing everything over an Internet connection.
Maybe he is additionally commenting on where our government is lacking today, and what he envisions us to be experiencing currently - if our GOV really were trying to improve things.

> I don't own ETH anymore, I gave it to Coinbase.

You DO own the ETH. Regardless of whether you are staking it yourself, or have given it to Coinbase to stake. Similar to how you maintain ownership of your rental property even if you allow a property management company to run it.

This is true if you move your ETH from a self-custody wallet to coinbase (custodial wallet). Either way, you maintain ownership. The tokens earned are taxable as income, just as income from a paying tenant on your rental property is taxed.

Also, the IRS defines crypto tokens as "property." As far as I know, there is no such distinction for bonds or loans.

From https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employe...:

"For federal tax purposes, digital assets are treated as property."

> The entire purpose of cryptocurrencies are to avoid those things, so while you technically could have them with a cryptocurrency, you would end up with no good reason to have a cryptocurrency at all.

I will substitute a word from your post that will help you understand this easier:

"The entire purpose of cash is to avoid those things, so while you technically could have them with cash, you would end up with no good reason to have cash at all."

Cryptocurrency is not antithetical to banks just like cash and gold are not. It is a digital version of cash, not credit.
Raise money. Use raise as an asset to secure credit. Accrue liabilities during normal business operations. Fail to generate revenue and raise more money and credit. Demonstrate growth without profit. Rinse, repeat.
> Overall, the risk of myocarditis is greater after SARS-CoV-2 infection than after COVID-19 vaccination and remains modest after sequential doses including a booster dose of BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine. However, the risk of myocarditis after vaccination is higher in younger men, particularly after a second dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine.
I could be wrong but I would imagine that funds raised would be the amount strictly raised from outside investors, not total revenues.

Example, Uber still makes revenue from its rides, just not enough for a profit and in this case funds raised would be making up the difference.
Once upon a time, I did customer support at a growing startup. The company had a system where each support ticket was tracked in SalesForce with a specific ID. In slack, a new thread would be spawned with that ID in the title. When we closed the support ticket, we would archive the slack thread.

And slackbot would dutifully notify every participant that the thread was archived. And there was no way to disable that "feature", even after talking to Slack's customer support about it.

And it drove me insane.

I had to have slack notifications work, because that was the primary method of communication for my workplace. And my notification stream was being constantly polluted by slackbot!

The lesson here? Let your users change their fucking settings!

Why is this so hard to understand? You can't decide how a company is going to use/abuse your product, and the employee working at that company probably can't either. So let them configure your product!!

Especially when it comes to notifications. Every app that makes a notification should provide settings to disable them at a bare minimum. How did we get so bad at this? It's fucking obvious, isn't it? Don't you hate having your life get interrupted by some bullshit notification you can't disable? How are you OK with doing that to anyone else?

Yet somehow this is the norm. Very few sms apps let you mute group texts. My Samsung phone buzzes at me in the middle of the night to let me know it disabled some unused apps. And I can't even disable that notification! How did anyone let that shit fly through QA?

Anyway, sorry for getting so upset in public. It's been years, and I'm still not over it.

Notifications suck hard, right in your face, and it's for no good reason in the first place. I'm tired. Aren't you?

Permanent Jewelry Locks in Customers, Sets Off Metal Detectors
Agreed, but usually tuning for short pause times involves trading off throughput or allocation performance. But at the end of the day, if you aren't allocating a bunch of garbage in the first place, then you don't need to be as concerned about the costs of allocating or cleaning up the garbage. I wish Go did more to make allocations explicit so they could be more easily recognized and avoided; I dislike Java's approach of making allocations even more implicit/idiomatic while trying to fix the cost problem in the runtime (although I admire the ambition).
I can't look at their balance sheet and conclude that they were anything but ignorant of traditional finance. He seemed completely unaware of duration risk, and it seems like they have never talked to an accountant or anyone who has even the slightest clue about what a balance sheet should remotely look like.

SBF worked at Jane Street, but he must have been there in a capacity that insulated him from this sort of knowledge. At large firms such as that there are very specialized roles that juniors typically start within, where the visibility is fairly limited.
It is. With the exception of a very narrow age range of young men, the COVID vaccine is protective against heart disease alone, even ignoring all other outcomes.
yes.. for me anyway.. for CS you also have to study a lot of math. I enjoyed my math classes a lot more than my CS classes. I really didn't enjoy my programming classes.. the thought of spending all night hacking in the lab never thrilled me actually. Only when I started programming professionally did I enjoy it. I realized later that it was actually the problem solving that I enjoyed.. the dopamine rush of implementing a solution. I wasn't solving equations anymore at that point (like in my math or physics classes), but I did really enjoy designing and implementing a solution to whatever the problem was.. and that's pretty much what professional programming is.

QA is a position/work that has been heavily outsourced. I know because I've met several QA outsourcing firms in Mexico and Ukraine that have really good business in the US.

99% of business owners don't have a hope of hitting it big (at least I hope so, because they never will). It's just that, for them, being an owner of a small plumbing operation and making $200k off of it beats being a plumber in somebody else's operation and making $70k.
This is why pair programming is so popular, but this is presuming that the more senior in that relationship is maybe good at teaching/coaching/mentoring.

A better solution might be have a set person, or even outsource the pair programming with some mentor-in-the-middle who has teaching experience and also can build more user-centered training for that person. Like a vocal coach for music, but for software.

Incremental learning. It's come out of the spaced repetition movement (SuperMemo really). The algorithm presents you with something that you flagged as interesting. If you're truly interested, you engage with it (and notify the algorithm) otherwise you move on to the next subject/item. It doesn't solve the problem of having too many subjects/areas but it does allow you to keep a running list of items you want to explore.

Incremental reading [0] is the source of this approach, but spaced repetition like approach can be used anywhere, including learning.
But the whole point of "cumulative losses" is that one would assume losses means revenue - expenses. If "revenue - expenses" is a negative number that is far larger than the amount you have raised, how are you not bankrupt yet?
It's dificult to refute your argument because I don't understand your points:

> Because of the locality aspect, people will assume that it's 'free' to look up a value multiple times instead of passing these data dependencies between the relevant methods

what does that even mean? What does 'data dependencies' mean specicially?

> then you can end up evicting data in the middle of a transaction

So in the middle of a transaction, instead of looking up data from a key - very cheap - you should do ... what? Recalculate it instead?

> The less obvious consequence is now you have concurrency bugs, because the code assumes that decisions made about the data will go the same way on each call, but due to eviction, two halves of the transaction may make conflicting decisions with undefined behavior

Assuming I even understand this, you are saying where there's concurrencty there's a risk of pulling stale data out of a cache. Well, true. That's just something you have to be careful of. Add a Tx reference to the cache key.

> Once you introduce caching you poison the performance well.

Not my experience at all. I can't understand why you're saying this.

> Flame charts lie when cache is used

How so?

> and after people rely on the cache it is lying in the other direction when the cache is off, because you're calling that path 5 times now and it's swamping other bottlenecks

I've no idea what this means

> This is what I really mean when I say it's a weapon of last resort. Because once you use it, it attempts to take any other options off the table

Heh! Absolutely not! Other optimisations are orthogonal to caching IME:

Better algo - orthogonal

Go lower level - orthogonal

Go multicore - orthogonal

Noobish SQL query is begging for a rewrite - orthogonal

Use L1/2/3/ chip cache better, or RAM, by careful data layout - orthogonal

Use a better library - orthogonal

Use better data structure eg. than linked list - orthogonal

b) that's a valid argument. so Deno.namespace("npm") would be the way

a) that's fine. In fact namespacing helps with segregation, because once there is some "npm for deno" one would just set the appropriate Deno.namespace("default") without having to touch a million import "npm:package_xyz".

Explicitly repeating full paths such as

import { createRequire } from "https://deno.land/std/node/module.ts";

over and over again is just an ugly antipattern.
I mean, engineering whole metabolisms pretty far off. Not out of the picture but pretty far off.
OP here. I agree with not customizing the resume, that's not sustainable for a necessarily high-volume job search. I'm lucky enough that my background is in a relatively popular field, so it's a much better strategy to just apply to places that are already a good fit for my existing resume. Definitely not going to do micro-tweaks to a resume based on whatever happens to be in the listing. Keep in mind recruiters spend literally seconds per resume. However a simple cover letter is generally a good idea and also a good place to add or highlight skills that may be especially relevant but not in the resume.

Strangely enough, despite what you might think from HN, I haven't run into a ton of LeetCode algorithm-type puzzles at the places I've been looking.
Pentiment Review
I’m arguing that the price for our technological advancement is the loss of privacy. It’s unavoidable. If one is not willing to bear such a price then they should completely unplug from technology and go live out in the woods away from civilization. Because just interacting with someone who is plugged in is a privacy risk.

All I hope is that the megacorp that I trust doesn’t go and sell off all my personal data to some nefarious people. What other course of action would you recommend to improve our privacy?
Thanks for the recommendation.

I feel like I am slowly changing my mind about cryptocoins. It always seemed so powerful. Bitcoin's exchange rate may fluctuate but it has value and is nearly indestructible. You could complain that it's overvalued but it's not at all a ponzi scheme. Unfortunately, it seems like the only utility that has arrived is for the black market. A bajillion new coins have been created, some of which also have real value and purport to improve on bitcoin. But here we are in 2022 and while I can see some cryptocoin ATMs in supermarkets, I doubt they're used for much beyond paying ransoms.

Even if we move the most important/useful coins off of proof-of-work †, I think governments around the world may move to outlaw cryptocoins. At which point whatever modest legitimate utility that existed will be eliminated and only the black market will remain.

† this seems difficult or impossible for bitcoin until/unless it forks to something that looks completely unlike bitcoin.

I am not saying that that is a good idea, I am expressing that there are limitations on what one can infer without broader context.

> Offloading type annotations to something else removes that safety from you.

Counter argument; the annotations can be used as a second sanity check; if the inferred types match your mental model - and the type inference model is good - then you know that your mental model is correct and you didn't miss something.
