The article touches on the Elizabeth line, but this area is a prime location Farringdon station is on both the Elizabeth line and Thameslink.

I’d sort of grimly expect that there’d be a rush to build tall office blocks all around the station, the sour taste of sweet progress.

Also it is just awkward to get to Smithfield from Farringdon, the station exit is a fair walk around a block, I had thought they could have opened station access directly to Smithfield.

Personally, 30–60 min HR screen/people stuff and 1h tech interview, with maybe an other hour or two of paid take home assignment.

Along with past experience on CV this should be enough to assess whether a candidate is suitable for the 3 or 6 months probation employment.

If after all this you still can’t decide whether the candidate is a match and worth keeping permanently post probation, your hiring and working processes are seriously broken. I don’t understand then need for multiple, hours long, dozen interviewers processes.

I mean it happens to 4 in 5 women, right? And we know that those numbers tend to be under reported, right?

Have you ever been close with a woman who didn't have multiple stories of assault to share. I haven't. Literally every woman I've ever dated, every woman in my immediate family and many of of close friends have talked to be about it, and it doesn't happen to them just once either. And we live in ostensibly one of the safest parts of the world, with plenty of money and good policing etc.

This isn't to mention the literal thousands of women showing up involuntarily on revenge porn websites every day, the creepshot websites, the harassment subreddits...

It's, like, literally super common. I'm sorry but if you think otherwise you need to listen better to the women around you.

Just think about it: The vast majority of sexual assault goes unreported, and the only a tiny percentage of reports are made maliciously. It's clear from napkin maths that sexual assault is orders of magnitude more common than false accusation.

>this could spell trouble for many legacy datacenters ill equipped to handle new, higher wattage systems.

The limits of air cooling - forced or natural convection - has been on everyone's radar for a long time. Any hyperscaler or DC operator worth their salt knows you aren't going to load up a rack in a legacy air cooled data hall with CPUs at these TDPs. These chips require new DCs with new cooling systems or legacy DCs to be retrofitted with the appropriate equipment.

Precision / direct to chip cooling - good but has lots of connectors. You get to use water as your coolant which has great thermal properties and it's cheap. The risk is that you can get water in your equipment.

Immersion in another option which comes in 2 flavors: single phase or 2 phase (the coolant boils). Both options require a high volume of coolant which is expensive. 2 phase immersion has the added challenge of needing a sealed enclosure, otherwise the coolant will leak while it is a vapor. You also have concerns about pressure relief that need to be addressed. On top of all that, there's material compatibility issues between the coolants and the PCBs. You're also not meant to immerse your fiber connections.

Spray cooling eliminates the need for high volume of coolant but comes with it's own set of problems. It's still very exotic, used in defense applications.

Are you suggesting that a better version of Unicode does not allow combining characters? [1]

Some languages have an explosive amount of characters if you regard each possible modifier in combination with each base character, some of which aren't practically used. By allowing the composition of modifiers and base letters, all the historically used ones are available, and all the odd ones are technically expressible.

I'm not sure how you encode all the world's languages, live and dead ones, without a few gotchas and deficiencies.

What would an always-normalized Unicode look like, if not either having really, really many characters, or having a non-trivial syntax?

Confluence on-premise is dead, what now?
Atlassian has killed off their on-premise Confluence product for small to medium sized organisations.

We currently have a 25 user license and would probably upgrade to 50 users in the next year or two. Our only option at the moment is to pay a fortune and a half and upgrade to their 500+ user (on-prem) Datacenter product. By law we are not allowed to use a cloud solution.

Most likely we will have to move to Sharepoint :(

Anyone in a similar situation?

I'm not sure what I was expecting but 8t wasn't that. Very interesting!
Its weird to say that datacenters 'didn't see it coming' when every chip produced in the last few decades has relied on smaller process nodes to increase performance/watt/silicon-area at the cost of increased power density. Theres no good way around the power density so the first company that can integrate advanced active cooling features in chips themselves will have an advantage as cpu's are already hitting their tdp limits with your standard behemoth cooler unable to outscale the power density.
If everyone else in a field is worried, and you have no unfair advantage or special insight, and you are not willing to move into conspiracy theories, I think there's a good hint as to what approach is most reasonable right now.

Might of course turn out to have been completely off, later. Still, maybe one of those occasions where you really don't want to "oops" it.
Ablative armor won’t help much. It creates enormous engineering challenges for endoatmospheric hypersonic missiles at energy levels orders of magnitude lower than what a laser will deliver. The amount of ablative armor required to slow these lasers would be infeasible on a practical weapon. Similarly, smoke wouldn’t even be a speed bump, since it would be instantly turned into plasma like the rest of the atmosphere. The base challenge on the receiving end is that it is very, very difficult to divert enough energy when the power levels are that high to limit damage. Based on the description of these laser, they are explicitly designed to defeat dielectric mirrors[0], which is the only vaguely plausible material that might survive a simple laser at these power levels.

The original design target for the military lasers the US has been developing and refining for the last 40+ years is that they could deliver sufficient power on target such that no ordinary molecular material could withstand them as a matter of physics. That is a non-trivial objective but it looks like they’re starting to design practical systems that can approximately achieve that over some range.

> But if you look closely you'll notice that `zip` and `map` were called directly on an array here and not actually on an iterator.

No, I don't think that's true, unless we're talking about two different things. In the article, and in the following post https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34428999, zip is user on an Option<i32>, takes another Option<i32>, return an Option<(i32, i32)> (which is a tuple, not an array), on which map is applied to extract the two values and add them.

> If zip/map are called directly on two Options, you get an Option containing a tuple back out. If they're done on two arrays, you get an array containing tuples back out. If they're done on two iterators, you get an iterator containing tuples back out.

But that's my whole point. std::option::map is not the same function as std::array::map, which is not the same function as core::iter::Iterator::map. One big difference, for example, is that core::iter::Iterator::map is lazy, while the others are not, hence the note to try to avoid chaining std::array::map, and being careful around it in performance-critical code: https://doc.rust-lang.org/src/core/array/mod.rs.html#466.

Even with HKTs, while you could share some code, that wouldn't solve the fact that the "direct map" (std::option::map for example) is strict, and the other map (std::option::iter::map) is lazy. Especially in a language often used for performance-sensitive tasks, I can't agree that understanding one map translates to understanding them all, since that would be ignoring part of their ergonomics, and more importantly their performance characteristics.
It's because the post is from 2020

Checking types at runtime is dynamic typing. It's equal to writing something like `if (typeOf(someValue) == "someRuntimeType") {…}`.

Depends, I left Google about half a year back. One of the roles I was considering was a former employer, a non-profit, which would have been roughly a 50% compensation cut. But I loved the work, and loved the team. Ultimately I went another direction because of some poor choices they made around remote work.

The discussion that led to it was "I'd rather we have less money than you be miserable all time time" from my other half. The culture at Google isn't for everyone. I didn't fit with it (or at least in my org) and it was a constant source of frustration on both sides.

Not just FTP is being deprecated, but WebDAV (DeltaV) is deeply based on Apache's mod_dav_svn subversion integration as well.

Such a major failure was my first (and last) experience with TS about two years ago. Had all the "strict" options set, was quite happy finally using a "type safe JS", and boom, it exploded at runtime with some nasty bug which was discovered not before having the code run in production. Than I learned that TS' "type system" isn't sound, and you're required to write tests even for the parts that should be actually covered by the "types". That's not helpful at all. That's not what I expect from type safety.

>> If people in a poor country are offered jobs in a factory, and they prefer those jobs over subsistence farming (since the conditions are better and pay is better), who exactly is worse off as a result?

> You aren't understanding the meaning of "exploitation". See the GP.

My question stands regardless of the meaning of the word "exploitation". I didn't use that word in my question. - Which I note you dodged answering. Who is worse off? Can you point to them?

>> both parties walk away happy

> Are they actually happy? Or are they exploited? That's the issue.

Why are they mutually exclusive? If being exploited isn't something with negative connotations, why can't I be "exploited" and be happy at the same time? If I hire a plumber to fix my leaky sink, who cares what the definition of the word exploited is? He's happy for the work, and I'm happy for my sink being fixed. We all walk away better off.

Was he exploited? Was I? Who cares when its consensual and we're both better off?

This argument about what "exploit" means seems pointless and unrelated to the actual topic - which seems to be, is it moral to hire someone in a poor country to do work for you. My claim is that not sending work to poor countries is often even more cruel - because it keeps people in poverty.
