I don't care about Marvel. What I dream about is a steady stream of new, original science fiction movies, self-contained, without sequels.
Looks slick and feels super fast.

One thing I like about Linear is having multiple accounts/workspaces and easily switching between them. As someone who manages multiple Gmail accounts and projects, this would be a nice feature. Totally understandable why it's not in the beta, though.
though i agree with you overall, right now the system is totally not working for indians and to a some extend chinese.

The current wait time for indians is over 100 years whereas all other countries get their green card in a couple of years(after green card sponsorship).

This makes the system crushing the Indians who have roots for more than decades.

For people who would say , you should have seen it coming , recently the demand from other countries are too high that wait time for indians are in decades at minimum

Does the alcohol by volume content end up diluted proportionally to something like 2-7% vs the usual 12-14%?
Great question. A few things here.

1. we spent years working with the regulators on defining and building our surveillance systems. They basically ingest data from the exchange and run stats/some ML to flag suspicious trading patterns to an investigation team in our compliance department (similar to when NYSE flags a Goldman trader for insider trading) -- our systems have gotten really sophisticated and you'd be surprised by the amount of commonality there is in cases of fraud/insider trading/manipulation/collusion and so on...

2. we tie people's trading activity to KYC we run at signup. We also pass people through Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) lists, that flag anyone that works in gov and their relatives etc.

3. when we investigate cases of inappropriate behaviors, the consequences can range from fines to criminal prosecution by the CFTC (similar to stock trading)

4. obv all the above are not a single hammer solution, they're heuristics, but people generally don't commit a federal crime to trade with $100, they tend to trade with much more meaningful sums, which fortunately and intuitively is much easier for our oversight programs to flag.

Overall, this question presents a number of fascinating challenges/questions, but it's not a more difficult problem than flagging insider trading/market manipulation in traditional markets like stocks and commodities.
The majority of H-1 workers (in my experience as a former H-1 worker) went to university in the US and then transition to H-1B. They have the same salary expectations as their American peers and get the same offers.

Maybe this salary injustice exists for H-1Bs being hired from abroad, but it doesn't exist initially for most H-1Bs when entering the job market. Of course 2 years into the job is a different story because H-1Bs have less negotiation power to seek out other jobs and get good retention offers etc
I simply consider it a type of harmless overconsumption, an expensive status-driven hobby not backed by rationalism.

It comes in many shapes and forms. Coffee snobs. People that buy a Rolex. Or have a 100K audio setup to match their supernatural hearing.

It doesn't have to make objective sense, as long as it makes sense in your head.
Part of it is that he's comparing his work-from-home AC expenses to his work-from-office gas expenses. He's not factoring in the company's office AC bill, because he doesn't pay it.

Also note that, at least in my case, I've got a cubicle farm at work. I can't just up the temperature for my 64 sqft cube; I have to up it for an entire quadrant of the floor.
Teacher's have disgraced themselves and their career over the pandemic. It has become 100% clear they prioritise themselves and their own needs, not the students they supposedly fight for.

Teacher's unions are a weird beast as well, aren't unions supposed to be about about organising labour in the face of capital? But if schools are mainly run by the government then what is the labour-capital relationship here? Too often this just turns into mediocre ideological teachers making demands on tax payers with no real accountability.

I'm in Australia and the teachers here are already on excellent salaries but you'd never know it from the demands and entitlement they frequently show.

Education as a sector can't be disrupted quickly enough (and thankfully the internet is doing this and I expect by the end of the decade the new AI tools will have educational components that will outperform the average teacher).
I've also been roasting coffee from Sweet Maria's for many years, and the thing that's useful is that I learned how Tom will describe flavors that I like. So, whether he calls it "hazelnut" or "almond" doesn't matter, but when he says "hazelnut" there is a flavor I enjoy that isn't there when he writes "almond"... and some other things like when he writes 'crowd pleasing" there is likely to be a lot of balance... over time the descriptions have become more and more useful to me!
Really, the first question you should be asking the people who interviewed you is "Given your evaluation, what areas do you guys think I need to work on?" If you're in a big company you can then go off and get training etc.

The biggest difference in a senior role is that you need push back if required, and hunt stuff more information if required. Asking the above sort of question would be the first step to getting there.
Lord Acton's maxim is "Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." The dumbed down paraphrases lose most of the insight. It's a little masterpiece of the English language, and as you note, who or what exactly is being corrupted, absolutely or otherwise, is intentionally underspecified.
Algorithmic design engineering is a fairly mature field that's been around for 20 plus years.

Looking at their website, they are simply developing a tool for more integrated algorithms from the park level to system level.

With this in mind, the the component integration of the model itself is extremely impressive and a proof of concept. It doesn't matter if it actually works or not, that's not really the point.
Now try doing that job for 20 to 30 years, your entire body will be totally broken and riddled with arthritis.

For somebody proudly touting their Mensa membership, you seem to have fallen into the same transcendalist trap that everyone does who waxes poetic for natural and "Mother Earth".

Natural is one in three women dying in childbirth, natural is contracting rabies by being bitten by a rabid animal and having 100% mortality rate, natural is dying at age 50 to 60.
Consider that the player may be at fault.

Almost 2 decades ago, when I was considering getting a DVD+RW drive for my PC, I thoroughly researched them and found they all had differing error correction algorithms, and it made a world of a difference. I got one known for this, and it often played DVDs that neither my standalone DVD player nor my roommate's DVD player on his PC could play.

I would have thought that by now they'd all be good at this, but it seems not.
You speak of this as if this is the only case of fraud/misrepresentation in any government program. Surely you are not saying every "American Programmer" <wink> <wink> has been fraud free, or no American Company has ever broken the law. The "WITCH" group as you call them is no better/worse than most other businesses.

Your emotional straw-manned attack speaks volumes about your own entitlement arrogance and naked self-interest, dare-i-say greed. I am a business owner that employs h1bs, we pay them on par with US hires - and we pay top dollar because of our specialized skill needs.

Also I think the fraud is in people like you and your entitlement arrogance, with fantasies of running a "American Programmer" cartel. Sorry businesses are not going to kneel to your shakedown racket: "pay me whatever-i-ask or else..."

Finally - this is crying out loud for some whataboutism - h1b fraud P-A-L-E-S in comparison to fraud in SS/Medicare/Medicaid/... many, many other government programs. For people like you to get on a high horse and yell "fraud" because of some cases of visa abuse, are really about your own greed.

Such smug holier-than-thou absolutist sanctimony among people on your side of the argument prevents meaningful h1b reform such as better filtering (salary-based) mechanism, which I think many in business would back as well to reduce fraud.
> He was of the opinion that generally speaking the quality of a typical wine increases monotonically with price up until around the $40 range with the big steps around the $5, $10, and $20 price points.

I'm always amused when I hear this, because I live in Ontario. Our alcohol laws are set up to heavily favour local wines.

Of course Ontario reds are consistently both more expensive and worse than foreign wines.

Higher price doesn't mean higher quality here.
>promote the welfare of your own citizens over that of foreigners

Isolationist countries end up with poorer people, in the same way if you made an isolationist state, county, city, or household, would simply end up making you poorer.

It's a shame more people don't read economics widely enough to understand this.
Grew up around the same time, we would typically change $some_cracker to our nicknames before trading them to the next person.
its binary options, which have long and spotty history. The payout does not cover owernship of an asset and typically the payouts are adjusted to be overall quite disadvantageous for retail bettors. I would stay away, it doesn't matter how they try to rebrand it. do your own research on binary options as they say.

I detest cloud-based components, and have built my entire network on HA/Zigbee devices. I have a few Z-wave (because the devices weren't available in Zigbee), but I hate them because they constantly need to be re-synced.

I’ve blind tasted beer numerous times in multiple different contexts.

Even participated in a session called “tasting on the right side of your brain” all about identifying and interrogating those more abstract impression.

As poetic as they are - they carry insight and information both about the taster and the liquid that - without interrogation even the taster maybe unaware of.
Thank you! I'll pass that suggestion along, thanks for the feedback.
The restaurant industry is brutal, low margin, and cut-throat. There's long hours and extremely hard work, and customers who don't give a shit about you. If you have a successful restaurant, it's probably because you have a good location (modulo those Michelin-starred gems in out-of-the-way small towns). So the landlord will do their best to extract any surplus value you generated through your skill and ingenuity. I've never worked in the industry and I've still heard of all of this.

Professional cooks have a completely different working style to skilled amateurs. They move faster and more precisely, and are able to juggle far more things at a time. It's a massive step up.

Plus the skillset involved in cooking well is orthogonal to what's needed to run a successful restaurant. Your major costs are labor, rent, and raw materials, and you need a certain personality to drive those down. Customers tend to be price-sensitive (again, apart from those high-end places) so you don't have as much power on the revenue side.

I love cooking. I'm never working in the food business.
Even though it is a privilege, I think it is still important to treat people with kindness and respect. The way that the US treats people on h1bs, especially if they are from countries with extremely long waits for green cards, is heartless, in my opinion.

There are a lot of things that we don't have to do to help our fellow human but that we still should do.
> Some of us absolutely enjoy the seclusion, especially this WFH Alaskan.

The thing is, you do enjoy it.

Just like people enjoy alcohol and tobacco or having cars.

However, the real question is: is it really good for you, long term?

I'm not sure the answer is clear cut. Humans frequently choose things which are actively harmful to them, at least long term.
> I get my DVDs almost exclusively from the library - not once has one ever failed to play for me.

Over the last few years, the experience with DVDs/Blu-Rays from the library has been trending downwards. I would say about a quarter of the movies I check out from the library have some problem somewhere in the movie where the player either gets stuck or skips.

That and many a time the companies do the job postings on things like local newspapers, which no one reads. This way, the companies get to prove that they posted the job someplace, but no one responded to it. USCIS and the DOL don't care either, as everyone gets to show "see, we are following protocol".
“I have no knowledge about this particular case”

Respectfully, I think you should have stopped there, or perhaps earlier. There is quite a body of evidence already provided in this thread suggesting that Kalshi is an anticompetitive regulatory-capture play.
I find a lot of people don't get pedagogy. They want immediate, authoritative statements on what is good or bad. Haskell isn't really about that. It's about the 10s of equivalent ways to solve every simple problem. That's what makes it fun. And fun is Haskell's secret sauce.
No, they won't. Not sure were you are living? :)
“honestly don’t think I have ever had a $50 plus bottle of wine that I would not have preferred over Barefoot, which has approximately zero taste markers of a wine made to taste good.”

I can’t believe that. I’ve never had barefoot and probably never will but there’s a lot of totally undrinkable, maybe even semi-poisonous, expensive wine. It’s not even rare. If you buy from a good merchant this is less of a problem but still, expensive wines go bad, and some were never good to begin with.
I could see one becoming convinced price has no correlation with quality given the bullshit that's sold in the $10-20 range. "Why, this was $15 but it's plainly worse than the $8 bottle I had last week!" There's some real crap in that bracket, at least around here. Especially French and Californian. I get the impression France drops their trash on us (the USA) in that price range, relying on their national "brand" to sell it for more than it's worth. Above that range, they're consistently damn good, of course.

[EDIT] As for Californian wine in that range, it seems to have a problem with marketing-over-substance. I expect trying to compete in that range on quality is... frustrating.
Nope, it's doing a round-trip to the server on each interaction. You can inspect the websocket and see the messages. The notifications are generated by a Python function running on the server, there's no client-side logic.

> It has become 100% clear they prioritise themselves and their own needs

Imagine complaining that a worker prioritizes their own needs and calling that 'disgrace[ful]'.
Yes. I've also grown tired of it. I used to spend nights and weekends learning, testing out new languages, starting (never finishing) side projects. I'd often work on actual work items after hours out of excitement, and it would even pay off.

I have noticed that the larger the company I work for, the higher the position, the more the pay... the worse it became. I'm inundated with process, planning, and "teamwork" where it used to be mostly solo problem solving and execution. Is this really how it is at a big successful tech company?

I need to go back to a startup or less mature but "still having their shit together" company.
Wow, Housing is unaffordable for young people, education costs are rising, many see no way out, why try. Sounds like someone dropped their stogie in their whiskey and is a bit cranky before bed time, and of course the golf club fees are skyrocketing. Why won't the baristas work for free!
> People aren't going to get better public transport or cheaper housing in the USA.

Not with that attitude :-)

Wasn't the US about a "go getter" attitude? I'm not even an American, but that's the general perception.
Software engineers create jobs for software engineers. The reason why you can make 4x more money in SF than in London is because the entire world flocks to SF to work in software. Those H1B workers are making you money, not costing you money.
Seriously - 480i is pretty awful these days. I don't even watch YouTube videos at that resolution on my phone. I can't imagine watching full movies at that resolution in 2022.
I'll wait for after Black Friday and after layoffs and catch some good stuff on craigslist. Plus this time it is different, 1st most deals went online, long before and after into December and January so no rush, 2nd due to inflation deals are worse so better deals might come months after, 3rd post-covid even Halloween is almost no-more so everything is changing
In a world of containers and micro services, I do not understand why we cannot have independent databases and buckets per user, specially if we are talking about sensitive data.
Y2K38 is a "standard Unix functions" problem. I don't think the surprises this time are going to be mission critical software doing date math, I think the surprises are going to be "non-mission critical apps" that "don't do date math" where it is not that "no one wants to risk touching it" but more "no one has thought to touch it in years because it isn't mission critical and it's just some random thing in the stack".

Case in point, this article's pointing a finger at fontconfig. Who considers fontconfig mission critical software? fontconfig has been open source forever, is it just "too boring" that no one has bothered to do a Y2K38 audit on it? It probably doesn't even really care about dates for the most part, so maybe no one even realizes it needs a date math audit? Multiply that across the very long tail of Unix apps and libraries since 1970. That's the weirder risk of Y2K38 than Y2K: the huge amount of "non-mission critical"/"non-date math" code that potentially exists in every Unix-derived tool. (With all non-Windows OSes in common usage today themselves being Unix-derived, that's a lot of surface area.)

Y2K was looking for everything that did date math with varchar(2) or 2-digit BCD. Those were needles in haystacks certainly, but the needles were sharp enough to know when you found one. Y2K38 is looking for subtle differences in (mostly) C macros and C library function calls and making sure that time_t structs are appropriately sized for modern platforms. That almost sounds to me more like looking for particularly colored straws in a haystack.
I was noticing this as well. I believe it's because each ui element must do a request to perform actions server-side (notice how the on_click handlers are python lambda functions).

This is probably the main drawback; you need your server to be located physically close to where the UI is open or there will be a very noticable delay. It's probably pretty snappy when the server and browser are on the same machine, though.
No, I agree. Web standards are not a place for personal tributes and documentations are not a place for political statements.

These days, we have both.
It may be easy to overstay, but it is not easy to retain a good middle class lifestyle long term. For example:

1. Mandatory I-9 verification means you will not be able to work at any large or non-shady company. No more highly paid tech jobs.

2. You can not re-enter and therefore you cannot leave, e.g. to see your parents in your home country, business trips or international vacations.

3. You cannot renew your drivers license past your visa expiration date. At best you can get a worse alternative (depends on state; AB60 in California) that lets you drive and not much more.

4. You would live in fear of ICE. After going through the legal immigration system, I cannot even imagine the stress of interacting with the illegal immigration system.

5. At that point your chance of naturalization is gone. Even everything else being equal, leaving and legally coming back on another H-1B would've been a _much_ more appealing option.

And I don't think any illegal immigrants would be laughing at the efforts of legal immigrants. I am shocked that you would write that. I am pretty sure nearly all illegal immigrants would love to follow a legal path if there was one that was achievable for them. After all, undocumented immigrants currently pay billions of dollars in state and federal taxes every year.

Most African countries weren't colonised by Europeans until after the 1880s. Africa's time spent in empires was very small compared to their histories.

It sounds like you even agree on this, Africa has never been a place with any degree of modern state capacity. It isn't surprising that it is still failing to achieve this.
I try to choose products that are not sold to me. It's a red flag when a SDR has to reach out to me to tell me how great the product is. I want to use a product developed by a company that invests heavily into the quality of the product, rather than the act of selling it (marketing + sales). So, that means word-of-mouth, helpful articles that lead me to the product, and free trials / evaluation periods.

My wife recently went back to school for civil engineering. They must take one programming course, in matlab. So we have this community of academic go-getter students who've never programmed before, suddenly working hard to learn about for-loops and structs and functions in Matlab. As a computer scientist it has been fun teaching them a bit. The assignments are easy enough that I can help a ton without knowing any syntax and just learn language features on the fly.
