One of the things I really loved about the IntCode problems was best exhibited by that Breakout game. One way of solving the problem was to create a joystick, as you said, but if you had built an IntCode inspector/debugger, you could also dig into the game code itself (your puzzle input) and find out where the blocks were in memory, and how much each one was worth, and just sum it up directly.

It reminded me of Wastl's other big puzzle collection (Synacore) which also had a big emphasis on implementing a VM to host further puzzles on top of.

>For blue states

You mean "NY, NJ, CT, and MA". They are the states that provide the vast majority of the surplus in federal taxes paid by its people versus expenditures to them and their states.[1] Four other states also have substantial surpluses, of which two voted for Clinton and Biden, and two voted for Trump both times. Every other state either breaks even (CA among them) or receives more than their people pay in taxes. Of the ten states that get back the most, five and a half (of Maine) voted for Clinton/Biden and four and a half voted for Trump/Trump. Source: Rockefeller Institute's annual studies on the subject.

[1] Yes, they are all Democratic states today, but this was exactly the same a century ago, when MA and CT were solidly Republican and NJ and NY were swing states.
The big problem I have with bluetooth that wires resolve is the seemingly-saturated 2.4Ghz in proximity to my mac. My mice (logitech MX Master3 and others) have a tendency to fritz out when they're on the other side of my desk from my laptop. Ditto keyboards. It's silly-frustrating.

What's funny is my bluetooth headphones work fine the whole time. They generally only freak out when I'm close to a running microwave.

I agree. If you can have one person stay home kids are pretty cheap. My wife won't stay home, but if we could swap salaries I'd do it myself in a heartbeat.
I can imagine (and know many people like this). It's pretty common in non-Western or poorer countries where people had kids earlier due mainly to economic reasons (and also lack of availability of birth control).

I suspect that the more palatable path would be “normalize resume gaps”, with the first step being public data on just how damaging they currently are. It’s plausibly zero if you are technical and spent a (even small) fraction self-learning, though I truly don’t know what the data would show.

Anecdotal: A friend took about 3mo off, then spent 3mo practicing and doing FAANG-adjacent interviews for a mid career technical role. Ended up OK, taking a little longer than expected but two offers above previous salary.
You'd want to do some sort of test because it can help assess whether your method did better than the alternatives by chance. For example can you really say Method A is better than B if A got 88% accuracy on the holdout set and B got 86% accuracy? Would that be true of all possible datasets?

t-test with Bonferroni isn't necessarily the best test for all metrics either.

World of Warcraft has a day/night cycle, but it runs in a full 24-hour cycle just like the real world. This meant that if you were like me and mostly played at night, you mostly only ever saw the game world at night, and rarely saw the beautiful daytime colors.

I found forum threads of people asking for the option to either disable the day/night cycle entirely (it was 100% cosmetic and had no effect on anything in the game), or perhaps change it to something shorter like a 6-hour cycle.

And in every one of them, there were people arguing against having it as an option because they wouldn't use it. It seems people struggle to understand what "optional" means.

It's a mindset that I just absolutely don't understand. I could maybe see someone coming at it from the standpoint of "I don't think devs should spend the time on implementing an option I won't use when there are so many other things to work on", but in the specific case of WoW's day/night cycle, I can't imagine it would be much of an effort.
I don’t know. There seems to be a movement in Europe to limiting one’s life to a few city blocks. Oxford wants to limit people to only driving about 100 days a year (1).

She also works for media studios who would see themselves as the poor victims of digital piracy. Instead of dismissing her viewpoint based on her status, maybe try addressing the point that stealing a car is actually not at all the same as copying software or digital media, and arguments that they really are equivalent miss the point and lead to pretty dumb laws.

Her most famous role was on The Office, which constituted a significant portion of Netflix's bandwidth (7% is one hand-wavy estimate based on related data), and Netflix has been estimated to have been an even more significant portion of worldwide Internet traffic (25% - 35% in some data). They're hand-wavy numbers but I would be confident that the show Mindy Kaling is best known for having written and acted in has easily made up over 1-2% of global Internet traffic at times. I wouldn't say she's entirely divorced from the issue of digital media piracy.

I asked it a question about how to do something with dates in the .NET Entity Framework, and it give me a long explanation with code of how rowversion is used for optimistic concurrency control. Completely unrelated to what I was asking.

I did ask it something more basic: "how to use fetch to download and parse a csv", and the code was helpful, although not much different from what I could find with google/stackoverflow. However, this next part was what really impressed me. The results used Papa for parsing, so I then asked it to do it with csv-parse instead, and it worked! That seems like the advantage over something like Copilot--it has contextual history of the question which can be used conversationally to tweak the results.

Want to help 25,000+ small business owners clone themselves so that they can stop running out of time, and avoid burn out? Then join the 17hats team. Founded in 2014, we have built the largest all-in-one business management platform in the world. If you are a Perl wizard, we want to talk to you.

It's a remote position, so you can work anywhere in the world, though we do require some overlap with Pacific time in the morning.

It's a small team of 5 developers so you would make a huge impact, both for our team and for our clients.

Obviously if you are a Perl developer, you know it is a small market so it is kinda silly to list any other requirements. We are looking for a good personality fit, good work ethic, and the openness to learn. If that sounds like you, drop us a line at jobs-at-17hats.com.

We also have two remote positions for Javascript developers. Our front end is done with Knockout and Jquery. Experience with Knockout is required, and a preference for adding value to our members rather than the latest shiny Javascript framework. Drop us a line at jobs-at-17hats.com if interested.
Return | REMOTE | Ruby developer | Full-time

Return (https://return.energy) is hiring a software developer who will work on software that accelerates the transition to carbon-free energy. Our investment portfolio includes companies operating in the markets of large-scale solar parks, charging points for electric vehicles, industrial-scale batteries, CO2, sequestration, and green hydrogen production.

While our ventures employ over 100 people in total, Return’s technical team is still small. Our platform automates processes in sales, project management, procurement, construction, customer service, and energy production and trading. The first 50 venture employees are now using the platform and we are ready to scale up, which is why we are looking for an experienced Ruby developer to work alongside Return’s CTO and product owner.

You will be working on the areas that matter most to our ventures and that match your expertise and interest. Our tech stack is straightforward: Postgres, Ruby on Rails 7, Turbo, Stimulus, and Bootstrap. We tend to keep meetings to a minimum in order to provide at least five hours of uninterrupted coding time per day. We practice code reviews and apply automated and manual testing. The platform is deployed multiple times per week.

Return employs 15 people working from our offices in Amsterdam, Utrecht, and Madrid. We’re very much open to working remotely as a developer as long as you live in the EU. Our hiring process is swift but thorough: a 30-minute call to get acquainted and discuss financials, one or more technical interviews, and a paid visit to Amsterdam or Madrid to meet the team.

The tech team members have co-founded several companies and have experience with remote development teams since 2008. They will personally help you through most of the recruiting process (there is no recruiter involved).

Ah, so saying that Ukraine and it's citizens didn't have exactly the same agency as any other country and its citizens while the US was fomenting a coup against it's Russian-backed government is just like saying nothing means anything, black is white and up is down. It's absolutely ridiculous to say that there was any result of the most powerful country in the world using Ukraine as a battleground to attack the most powerful country in the region.

This is not the smart position, this is attempting to shut down upsetting discussions with circular nonsense.

Anecdotal evidence. Perhaps even fabricated.

The striking thing about The Economist list is that, while you can point to various data points and come up with a rationale why one might be low or another might be high (e.g. NZ is a small island nation that pretty much closed its borders). overall there really isn't much of a pattern. What is it about the Balkans that puts them towards the top of the list? Why did Lithuania fare significantly worse than Estonia? And while Sweden did a bit worse than Norway and Denmark, it did better than Finland in terms of excess deaths percentage.

Bonferroni's correction on hold-out data is an excellent suggestion. To adapt it into time series forecasting, one could perform temporal cross-validation with rolling windows and follow the performance's variance through time.

Unfortunately, the computational time would explode if the ML method's optimization is performed naively. Precise measurements of the statistical significance would crowd out researchers except for Big Tech.
Another great deep dive into latency of typing is this one [1] which considers input latency from the keyboard, the keyboard interface, the editor/IDE, and even the window manager.

"It makes sense to ask if this is the opinion of a single researcher, or if the department and employer share the opinions."

1. No it doesn't make sense. He said:

"I'm Joel Reardon, a professor at the University of Calgary, who researches privacy in the mobile space." and not

"I'm Joel Reardon a security researcher" - so it's clear it's his professional opinion as a professor not a private opinion / or commercial opinion.

2. No university shares the opinions of it's professors, that's kind of the key of an university.

I've been around the tech world for a few decades. This sentiment has often been repeated about things like this, but I no longer believe that it's viable. The tech world is just too fast-moving, which means there's not really any such thing as "education". If you manage to teach someone something, it'll probably be out of date in a year or two, if not less. You have to pay attention to the latest trends all the time to really be knowledgeable about it. That just isn't going to happen.
You are providing only a small part of the result. If you provide the full result it make prefect sense why Google would suggest it.

When you search "when did the moon explode?". The full result is actually

> About an hour after sunset on June 18, 1178, the Moon exploded. That's what it looked like to five terrified, awestruck monks watching the skies over the abbey at Canterbury, in southeastern England, anyway.

Which links to an article about the story. It a well known story hence why it shows up when you search it.

When you search "when did lincoln shoot booth"

It doesnt say "Booth shot Lincoln in 1865". It literally gives you a summary of the "Assassination of Abraham Lincoln" with a link the Wikipedia.

Again to a human this is a perfectly fine result because if you are search "When did Lincoln shoot Booth" and this shows up you will realize oh im an idiot Linclon was actually shot by Booth lol.

These are both better results then if GPT would suggest the same with no proof. Google gives you a source for their result.
Yeah... after reading the comments and doing some research, it looks like he was most likely just extremely lucky.
NixOS actually handles NVIDIA hybrid graphics more easily than most distros. When I got a laptop with NVIDIA/Intel hybrid graphics a few years ago, it took less time to configure on NixOS than it had on openSUSE, which I was dual-booting at the time.

I don't have a laptop like that anymore, but check the NixOS manual and NixOS.wiki, and ask around if you get stuck!

(When I last used it, Bumblebee was the best option and worked well, but these days, native PRIME offloading should also work fine and it's what I would prefer.)

As for Steam, just add

programs.steam.enable = true;

to your config. Works great!

(If you're accustomed to Flatpak Steam, you can alternatively enable Flatpak and just install Steam that way, like you would on your existing distro.)
I was shocked reading further down,

“ 1) A death in a person with a laboratory-confirmed positive COVID-19 and either: died within 60 days of the first specimen date or died more than 60 days after the first specimen date, only if COVID-19 is mentioned on the death certificate”

Implying that in the first instance, covid does not need to appear anywhere on the death certificate and it will still be counted.
It's not a "serious" project. I chose Go specifically because I like the language (and Ebitengine is super fun to work with) and I like the idea behind ECS. I made games with Unity before, which you could consider a "serious" engine, but the fun of development is nowhere near what I experienced here.

Thinking about what would be the most efficient engine for the game would kill all the fun for me and the project wouldn't exist. :)

I don't know any Pocket users either, but then again I don't know any Firefox users at all these days. Brave seems to have much better traction among the sorts who were, until recently, Firefox fans. I ditched FF on all my serious-business machines because it ate battery on my Macbook(s) and had some persistent-across-versions lack of UI polish that started bothering me after I'd seen the same things done right. Still use it on my Windows gaming/piracy/nothing-serious machine (which has no battery to preserve) since Safari won't run there, but if someone came in and swapped it with almost anything except Chrome or Edge, I'd likely not bother to change it back. And I was one of those people installing it on every person's machine who'd let me, before it was even called Firefox.
