In addition to technical scams, lots of these relationship types come out of Nigeria and India call centers. During the day the centers sell something legitimate, like web dev or management svcs, but at night, they lock the doors and the scam crew uses the office to fleece victims.
This program is extremely useful. I have recently performed a recovery on a bricked Microsoft Surface and was able to extract all the useful files from a Windows home directory and quickly discard all the libraries, caches, and so on. By seeing the folders that take up the most space you can easily determine what the juicy bits in a folder hierarchy are. Huge time saver.

Using GrandPerspective on macOS was a similar revelation, but ncdu being keyboard driven and allowing you to quickly launch a shell inside each folder and then apply find -exec there quickly is a productivity boost on yet another level.
Which model is better for minimising environmental impacts of all sorts:

I don’t think anything happened at a governmental level, but I know some companies open sourced select patents to help with the pandemic. I vaguely remember an issue with 3D printing ventilator parts because it violated the patent [1], but I don’t think that company ever actually sued anyone, they just threatened it.

Then go. The quality of your comment is extremely poor and is the exact kind of talk that will eventually turn this place into reddit, echo chamber devoid of actual discussion and difficult ideas. Here, the goal is to say something meaningful and extend the conversation, not stop discussion with vague appeal to emotions about frustrations with the "wrong opinion". I'd've actually been on your side in a discussion if it had continued rather than being stonewalled by attempting to set up a barrier between who's allowed to post and who's not. By commenting that you're implicitly pushing this place towards a culture that throws its hands up and plugs its ears whenever a "difficult" idea is presented. If you cannot handle that, then this isn't the place for you.

But who knows, maybe if you'd genuinely asked and heard them out instead of going all, "we don't like your kind here", you might've found yourself agreeing with them. Who knows, but this is about the genuine and free discussion of ideas, not baiting flame wars.

Edit: this is a long comment. It's the first one I've posted after seeing growing number of anti-discussion, reddit-like behavior. It's personally frustrating to me because this is where I go to get away from stuff like this. I hope this isn't too angry or judgy, and I hope everyone's doing okay.

You have to spell your ID to people so they can contact you anyway and a number is the easiest to spell aloud when communicating to people from different countries because everybody (every language) calls the same letters a different way and almost nobody cares to study proper letter names as this is the most useless knowledge about a language otherwise.

Ask HN: How will Google differentiate between content written by AI and human?
The chatGPT broke the internet these last days by invading the web with screenshots of the different exchanges between testers and artificial intelligence. We can ask it what we want, like writing an article or a publication (don't worry, I'm the one typing behind my keyboard).

I was wondering last night how Google (not to mention the other engines) will adapt its SEO strategies to discern a human's written content from an AI's content.

Because if everyone starts to generate articles with AIs, the web will become a pile of content created by AIs based on content written by humans for humans. But we know that training models are based on text corpora from different sources (including the web).

Where is the border? The more content generated by AIs, the more the new AIs will train on content generated by other AIs to create new content.

We will end up reading content that humans no longer wrote, which could become almost rare.

Content is one of many variables taken into account by the algorithm to index pages, but it will be interesting to see how search engines will solve this issue.

Tell me what you think:
"I rewired my brain to become fluent in math with the help of an AI"

translation:

"I found a math textbook from a google search"

Gosh, that’s one more pretty good red flag to look for in interviews, thanks for the tip!

[edit, to tame the sarcasm in my comment]

If your project is very large and feature estimation is an issue, that’s because both (the feature actual scope and its estimation) are still in the discovery phase. So that means that the discovery/design/estimation is a feedback loop, not a path. If your team/project structure or your customer can’t accept/manage that, that’s the issue; not the estimation in itself.

Independently, if an AI can satisfyingly and consistently estimate the delay/complexity of a user story into a working feature within a given product, by a given team, it may already be near cutting/splitting it into smaller ones. And if that still makes a working feat/product for humans in the end (that is, something significantly better than what Concur or SAP can be for instance), your AI may even be in the range where it can implement it.

Both hunches that would make the hiring company a hard pass for me, in that either it’s not planning/organised in a sane way, either my role is not needed.
A lot of people in the US can't leave either. Not because their government won't let them out, but because no other government would let them in.
we don't really know how and why life came about and how representative it might be of a broader phenomenon unfolding across the universe. but anything else of that nature happening around here would have to have a minuscule footprint in terms of the conventional physics / standard model to successfully evade serendipitous detection in any of the countless and very diverse measurements across physics, chemistry, biology and various engineering disciplines worldwide (and for more than a century)

missing pieces (as we now understand the world) show up only when the puzzle reaches cosmological scales. of-course it would be extremely exciting if something "invisible" had a faint trace in our lowly spacetime neighborhood. but as Feynman might have said, the Universe is what it is and it is not hear to entertain us (nor drive clicks onto aerospace company blogs)

Game engines are what we want. I would like cross polination of computing ideas within the computer industry.

To run a modern software stack I need to do a lot of work. Even more work to package for Linux and be cross platform and multi platform on mobile.

There's a neverending supply of work to be done.

Who is downstream of who? Who is upstream of who? I'm surprised there isn't a map of this.

I'm saying this work of integrating what other people has done is an end of line lineage. Or it's a lineage of its own that never integrates with others.

Linux distributors collect software written by multiple other people and incorporate learnings from getting them working together seamlessly. But there's no shortage of linux distributions.

If I say Ubuntu 18 or Ubuntu 22 people know that's a solid base to build upon. But anything I build upon doesn't necessarily get merged upstream for other people to build upon. The lineage essentially ends there and there, it only goes on within its own line.

Do linux distributions merge?

With games, the game is stripped of some assets and then new assets are added and new logic is added and that's a new game. But only the game company of that game and players of that game benefits from that game, except for the inspiration for lookalikes or clones with other separate lineages.

To come back to the article, I want a computer infrastructure that isn't obsolete as soon I deploy it. So that's requires lineage merging and project merging.

You don't necessarily need that actually, there are carry flags that are set on overflow that you can check to get that extra bit of precision.

In Rust you can actually do this using the checked add/sub/etc methods. It's one of the things I really appreciate about the language. By default, it panics on overflow in debug builds. You have to use the wrapping variants to declare that's intentional.

How about:

if a > b {
mid = (a-b)/2
} else {
mid = (b-a)/2

I do think it's interesting that it's so widely stigmatised (illegal even) though: like we've collectively decided life is meaningful and must be lived to the best of your ability, deciding there's nothing in it for you and you don't want to take part is not (with very niche old-age && ill-health exception) allowed.

Weird, when you step back and think about it isn't it? If you're agnostic/atheist at least.
“I can only assume” is I think the key to this comment, however let’s explore some hypotheticals.

You are a Director; you have a 350 person organization; you’re leading a rapidly growing business (let’s say >40% YoY growth in revenue, not uncommon in parts of AWS); during the OP1 you secured incremental investment of 20% meaning you’ll grow to 420, which is +70 hires to make.

You’re goaled against a 6% URA meaning 21 people exit voluntarily after being entered to Focus, during Pivot, or involuntarily at the unsuccessful end of a Pivot.

If I spoke from experiences, I’d say the (vast) majority of your URA will likely come from the tenure group with < 18 months at Amazon, in effect, hiring decisions which didn’t work out and where, in debrief, everyone thought the person had potential to be a bar raising hire but in reality they were bottom quartile. In the debrief your clear options were “Hire at L7”, “Hire at L6”, “No Hire”, plus maybe some flavor of good fit for Amazon but not really for this specific role.

Let’s take the extreme of this and say all URA comes from just the +70 growth, 21 people would be a 30% failure rate.

In a less extreme and more likely scenario: it’s more like some fast failures occur from the +70, others are slightly slower and show up after 12-18 months (that would be the prior years growth). Tenured people with e.g. >4 years sometimes start to struggle for whatever reason.

That’s not all that unexpected, in my opinion! Even with a structured well-used interviewing mechanism you’re getting perhaps 6 hours of signal and during this time the applicants are naturally very focused on “putting the best foot forward”. After a hire decision you work with someone for 6 months or more and ask “Is this what I expected?”, and “If I could make the decision again based on the signal I now possess, would I still be strongly convicted and proceed to hire this person?”. When the answers to these questions are “No”, that’s often what commences the performance management processes.

Now, this explanation works for growth businesses, it’s less apparent how 6% URA makes sense in a flat growth organization, since you’d be finding those cuts from a mostly tenured and presumably mostly proven set of people.
Unfortunately, I seem to mostly value lying on the couch and browsing the internet.

To add to this rather fun, hypothetical conversation…I join most Christians to believe in angelic beings - creatures who exist in an invisible universe alongside us. I see no difference between the Christian understanding of an “angel” and what we call “invisible aliens” in culture.

In fact, many religions accept a kind of shadow-world as part of their orthodoxy.

Perhaps it’s all superstition emerging from our biology but it is at least possible that someone knew something meaningful about a shadow-world and encoded that knowledge into religion.

A simple google search will give them the same results, so why is this on Snapchat? Are you going to complain that Firefox doesn't do content moderation?

You asked how they are getting away with no content moderation yet, you also said that the moderation team replied in minutes, so clearly they are moderating and are on top of things, you just didn't agree with there choice. Also you mention about purposely gaming the algorithm to show you such content, again how is this different to using a search engine to directly find the content?

NK and other dictatorial regimes suck. Western democracies that attempt to lean into authoritarianism also suck. We need to trend more toward free, open and democratic societies globally. Suggesting that dictatorships are fine because western governments occasionally do similar things isn't helpful - it is a purely apologist take. Of course, that is just my opinion, if you like dictatorships, please state it plainly.

"Philistine" is right.

Most 21st desktop UIs are, to a greater or a lesser degree, Windows ripoffs. Most of Win95 or later, but sometimes you can trace a specific version -- e.g. KDE apes Windows 98 in program design as well as function.

(Rendering filer window contents as HTML before displaying them using the browser engine: this was designed by Microsoft to evade prosecution by the US DOJ for anticompetitive bundling of IE with Windows. It tried to claim that IE was integral by, for example, rejigging Explorer to render using IE. The Win 95 and 95B versions do not do it; nor did NT 4 at launch.)

If you believe that all GUIs do this, that suggests that the only desktop GUIs you've seen are ones that are copies of the Windows design.

To the best of my ability to recall that long ago, before Windows 3 and OS/2, most GUIs didn't have a maximise function.

Examples: AmigaOS; DR GEM; classic MacOS; Sun OpenLook; Acorn RISC OS.

> The only real issue with it is that the current generation of their smartphones doesn't come with enough memory. Only 8GB (S22) or even 6 (S21FE). You need more for decent multitasking.

Since we're fantasising about future computers I hope there won't be more than 8Gb necessary to multitask. I remember running Windows and Office in the 90s on 16Mb. Seems like the 1000-fold increase in memory was mostly negated by wasteful software engineering...

German news (English website) article: https://www.dw.com/en/german-police-arrest-25-suspects-over-...

“Officials said the network, part of a wider right-wing movement, was already well established with a concrete plan to overthrow the German state by force and install a new government.”

So, perhaps, military is the incorrect word, as they certainly planned/desired a coup. They also seem to have problems understanding the magnitude of the state.
> Another fun fact: wasps will not spend much time around their nests. They usually leave the nest at high speed (do not stand there!) and then roam an area of multiple square kilometers. When they come back they immediately go back into the nest. Sometimes a single animal may inspect the closer area, but this is rare.

Not the wasps here. There's always a few wasps flying around the nests when I find them.

It also doesn't take much to aggravate them.

Disclaimer: I'm not a Bazel expert by any means

Every Bazel rule (e.g. cxx_library) has attributes and an internal implementation function in Starlark. The implementation can read the attributes and coordinates the work of actually calling programs (like Clang) and collecting the outputs. The collected outputs are exposed via a list of data-structures of type "Provider". When a target depends on other targets, it can see the providers of its direct dependencies. This allows targets to build on their dependencies. In C/C++, for example, the Providers contain the header files, the objects for linking etc.

I would definitely write (or at least read) a few Bazel rules before writing a new build system that improves on it!

They are undetectable by us, but this isn't because of how good their technology is (though it may well also be that good), but simply because the universe is so large and the speed of light so slow. Even if their first "person" to create a powerful enough radio had the idea to beam a signal directly to earth, it still wouldn't have arrived. That signal would have been sent before I sun even started forming, so there is no reason for them to have had the idea, but even if they did anyway.
