They're in it because it was a bunch of high growth stock that also coincidentally paid very well so the name transfered from finance to programming.
The elder trees I grew up with were more like a slow-growing bamboo, a thin 1mm to 2mm surface wood around a pith centre. In fact, wiki's page on pith uses elder as it's example:

Considering Germany alone doesn't make much sense. Any realistic solution would be European.
I think you understand more than you think if this statement throws you for a loop:

> “Corporations are bound by fiduciary responsibility to maximize profit"

This might be the view of some CEOs (maybe it’s the logical conclusion of the Jack Welch school of thought?) but it certainly isn’t the case from a corporate law perspective.

Officers have a fiduciary duty of loyalty not to compete against the corporation or steal its opportunities; and officers have the fiduciary duty of care to act in an informed manner, but they certainly do not have a legal responsibility to the shareholders or anyone else to maximize profits.
How much of the remaining workforce at Twitter is held hostage by a work visa? (I don't know, I am asking the hive though)
>I would think it's clear that speed limits on non-freeways are far from "100% political".

This depends on the locale, and what you consider "political". For example, in NYC it is entirely "political/financial. For some time now the city-wide speed limit has been set at 25 mph, with thousands of speed cameras that automatically ticket people. While on some streets this may be reasonable, it is certainly not reasonable city-wide (which includes all the outer boroughs of Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island and the Bronx). In her annual address this month, Governor Hochul announced that the city-wide speed limit will be lowered even further, below 25 mph! This means that at the maximum legal speed, your car will be passed by bikes, mopeds and even fast runners. This is clearly not a safety issue, thought some will argue it is "safer" (and it would be safer still if the speed limit was 0, nobody would ever die from an auto accident!). It a combination of a money-making scam and a political ploy to curry favor from the small (but politically powerful) group of New Yorkers who want to eliminate cars all together.
Reminds me of all the people who will send "hey got a minute?" or "hey I have a question" or simply "hey!" in a work DM and wait for a response. Just ask your damn question!
Bingo, if there are going to be layoffs, now is the time to do it because the narrative is the economy is fucked.
Twitter is better than ever? From what I've heard they've driven away a huge chunk of their advertisers and users, and stopped paying rent
I think the instructions should be:

Move to the square indicated below the board without moving to a square the queen can capture and without capturing the queen. Once accomplished a new square will be indicated. Repeat until all possible squares are done.

Or maybe the hiring process is broken beyond repair when engineers who are perfectly qualified need to inhibit parts of their brain just to 'perform' at an artificially inflated level.
Thanks! That's exactly the point of it! I'm going to be working on the CSS this weekend on stream (the images being so big for longer conversations take up too much screen real estate), but in general the idea is to have a combination of the Socratic method of dialogue based teaching combined with a few consistently written characters; not to mention it helps move out parentheticals to break up giant walls of text. I don't have any page explaining each of the characters and their tropes, but here's a small list:

Mara: the student that knows a fair bit but isn't afraid to call the teacher out on their shit, also used for most parentheticals

Cadey: the teacher that learns from student questions, also a bit of a self-insert to de-emphasize certain parentheticals

Numa: the shitposter that really does mean well, but communicates in shitposts, memes, and similar

Aoi: the idealist that has difficulty accepting the state of the world as it is

With these I create tension between the characters to help illustrate the point. Aoi was added for this article and helps to ground the satire in a sense of reality by being disgusted by this tool.
Fusion doesn't need non-existent technologies either. It's just electromagnets and plasma. We just need to integrate these existing technologies to make the fusion process more efficient.

Yeah Microsoft is an interesting case, since they aren’t as impacted by ecommerce spending. As far as I know, they haven’t launched a completely new service/offering that would require that many people.

That might be a case of them cutting the costs to prop up the stock price so they can make acquisitions? Time will tell
I was aimless all through my 20s and into my 30s. Started to realize that in every job I took, I ended up designing systems for how technology could improve their processes. This led to a project management gig when I was 29. No University degree, no experience. That PM role lead to another in my early 30s. When that 2nd role ended, I was floating around again. Worked in events until I was in my mid-30s.

After another short role as a PM, I started teaching myself to code. I was now around 34-35. An early coding project got picked up by TechCrunch, and I think the recognition, and a lot of people being impressed drove me further down the SE path.

I did some contract SE work, learned some ML, really just experimented until I got my first proper SE job at 40. I hated it. Left that gig and was super fortunate to land a job at CSIRO (Australia's science and technology research agency). Now I was an SE with some cred, but WAY outdone by my collogues, many of whom had PhDs. I was out of place, couldn't quite keep up.

I ended up as a mix Product Manager/Project Manager/Software Engineer, then spun out some tech to create a new company where I became CEO. I was 44 at the time.

So yes, you can DEFINITELY start over your career after 30.

We're now in the neurotech field, and that's all new to me as well (now at 50). Way out of my depth, but loving to learn.

Another way to think of it, if you had been an SE in the finance market until you were 40, would you ask if you could become an SE in (insert field of interest here)? Of course you could! You still have your experience, even if you think it isn't a positive experience. As long as you are a good person, with an interest to learn, there is a market for your skills.
> but if half the population of the state really wants change, then it should be able to do so with normal democratic functions, right?

You're assuming uniform population density.

I came here to make a similar comment! A good smell test for whether a piece of software "has its act together" is to send it emoji where it expects text and observe whether it handles it gracefully or shits the bed. It's 2023 and so much bad software still assumes text = ASCII or at best assumes text = ISO-8859-1.
Good one! I've been thinking about possible integrations — thanks for sharing.
This seems like a bug, not a feature.

Personally I have Authenticator for day to day use, a Yubikey for restoring access if something happens to my phone, and backup codes.
Current dry electrode technology is nowhere close to being useful for high fidelity applications. You will need a breakthrough in ML/signal processing that can solve the cocktail party problem for a very large n. (Given the current advances in ML, I won't be surprised if we start seeing improvements in this area)

To quote professor Mike Cohen, all of neuroscience (the EEG BCI part at least) is source separation.

So companies that offer work visas are kidnappers?

The people that want to come over and accept the job offer are aiding in their own kidnapping?

I don't get it, you don't support work visas or you think Twitter is abusing them, or...?

I have so many questions about your statement.

It’s been a long time since I was in a position to think about being waitstaff… so can you tell me what does being cut mean in this context?
You don’t. They’re not counted I think.
Because the experience is better. That's the only reason anyone needs. Whether or not it's an App is immaterial.
You cannot. This is an IRI, not a URI.

Browser address bars will typically convert and render URI as IRI, because they need to convey the domain name to the user (because we don't have a better way to handle reputation on the web).
Any program running as your user on your personal machine can trivially gain root privileges, by dropping a program called "sudo" in your personal PATH, putting a "sudo" command in your .bashrc, man-in-the-middle a shell (how do you know that last command actually completed?), or hijacking any of the graphical programs that trivially ask you for your UNIX password to do anything (Discord/Slack/... updater, Steam, ...)
I think that there was some VP or senior-director level review of which teams would get cut by how much. Then I think that there was some procedure for choosing people on these teams based on level, tenure, and rating history. But I have no idea what this procedure would be.

“Dubious broader value” is a great way to tell you’re United-Statesian without saying you’re United-Statesian.
As part of her bachelor degree my SO spent 3 months in one of the west-African countries. On the way back, they wanted to meet up in South-Africa with some other students who had gone to a different country for a vacation before returning home.

Since she hates stuff like this, I was tasked with finding a cheap tickets. For the first trip from here in Norway to the west-African country, I found that the cheapest tickets were from KLM (who flew direct from Amsterdam, so only one stop), and the round-trip ticket was indeed about $300 cheaper than a one-way ticket.
Eh, in this case I don't think the story hinges on keeping that secret, and if you know what era of sci-fi the story was written in you'd be nearly certain you're getting the "shocking twist! (but not really a twist)" ending anyway. The alert, seasoned sci-fi reader would be more surprised by almost any other ending than that one, really, in a '50s story of this sort.

Same thing Asimov usually did—a shower and/or stoned "what if...?" idea turned into a short story in a straightforward way—except Clarke took the extra step to, like, write actual characters and draw a setting and maybe even establish tone and mood beyond whatever the literal plot itself necessarily conveys.

I also do not understand why people claim that mercurial is more beginner-friendly. Especially putting relatively basic features into optional modules is very confusing in the beginning.
Yeah, and those opposing Patriot Act were clearly anti-american terrorist sympathizers, while those opposing CISPA and other online censorship bills were all just supporting crimes against children and were probably secret pedophiles themselves. /s

Do you realize that core principles matter, regardless of who is on the other side, right? That's the whole point of them. Back in the day, the ones on the receiving end were those opposed to the Vietnam war, and they persevered despite the government and the popular sentiment being against them (being accused of hating the america, being communism sympathizers, etc.) If we didn't hold those core principles dear, regardless of those protestors being "anti-american", imo we would be worse off.
What do you mean vaporized? Never heard from them after they joined Databricks?
A fully decarbonized grid's ability to build renewables is, in fact, not at all determined by the availability of (watershed) hydroelectricity.

In particular, hydro storage can be built in hundreds of times as many places as watershed hydro generation. And, there are numerous other practical storage methods.

Ready combined-cycle gas generation capacity is more important, most places. Those will be incrementally converted to consume imported synthetic ammonia.
At this moment central banks worldwide are increasing interest rates to slow down economies and fight inflation caused by money printing during COVID (different countries might be in different parts of their tightening cycles tho).

As a company, if you believe there will be less economic activity in the future, you must cut costs to ensure survival.

Of course one could bet central banks will fail, but historically this sort of bet has held nothing but pain and suffering.
No. You can build a house in the Midwest right now with minimal effort. You cannot build a house in a crowded popular city by any method.
If you as an administrator want to see where you have granted additional funny permissions, with ACLs your only recourse is to getfacl everything on the filesystem, whereas with sudo everything is listed in /etc/sudoers and classically the group membership in /etc/passwd gives you a pretty good idea. I don’t know if that’s a reasonable thing to want, actually, but it is one that makes me mildly unconfortable with ACL systems in general.
Kinda reminds me of Puss in Boots pulling that face when he wants something so badly. Cats will rule the planet after we're long gone.
> Advocates of nuclear will need to have answers.

Not really. Nobody ever wants power generation in their backyard. Doesn't matter if it's dangerous nuclear or polluting fossil fuel or eye-sore wind. The answer is always one of the same two options: do it anyway, or put it in someone else's backyard.
This is valuable for corporate software engineers working on giant systems.

But what about non-corporate software engineers? What about web developers? The interview process is very different depending on the company.
That's a good question - if you mean across the industry as a whole then I would say maybe because I don't have insight into every company. I also mentioned that I think it is harder to determine the low performers in larger companies that have 1000x more workers. I do know that some companies have focused on laying off certain departments or teams, though the criteria is a mystery to me (not profitable on paper?).

I would also like to amend my current qualifiers to include underutilized employees, too; eg a company over-hires and ends up not having enough work for everyone, which seems to be another common narrative for these layoffs. These people can appear as low performers even though it is the fault of the company for hiring them.

This is why we can’t have nice things. Every company wants to make minimum investment in hires and hires want to jump to get paid as much as possible. Game theory playing out.
Agreed. We definitely have to be more careful these days about which articles are pushing narratives that are designed to enrage or delude us. A long time ago I read an article about how Canadian kids were struggling to adjust with COVID restrictions. But my friend had a 4 year old daughter in Ontario who ate outside when it was -20C. Why? It's shameful.

There is nothing funny or lighthearted about modern-day Internet April Fools. It is too ingrained in ‘social media marketing’ culture at this point. What used to be ‘people having fun’ is now a temporal dumping ground for a bunch of unfunny forced jokes pumped out by soulless marketing teams as some sort of brand awareness exercise.

For building things I find that that “skill” to be powering through uncertainty. Some people are constantly in analysis paralysis and it is a struggle to watch them code something that isn’t completely outlined.
I don't think this is a big concern. Hubbard discusses L'Hôpital and integration by parts, but it doesn't place a great deal of emphasis on them because the way topics are presented is a bit unusual.

If this is a concern, you can always use another text. I don't think this is a problem. Some freshman courses jump straight into Hubbard.
Regardless of the exact word choice, if you have a life goal that requires some extra effort and sacrifices, and you cannot get yourself to do it, you can't really blame your busy life or anything else. There are others who do all of the above and still make the time, and they are going to be more successful than you while you continue to complain about the industry/interview process/leetcode/whatever else.
No. You're still thinking about Mastodon as a federation of medium- and large- sized small social networks; star systems in a galaxy.

That's how it works now, but I don't think it's going to stay that way for long. I don't think large shared Mastodon instances, at least larger than you'd see for a group blog, make much sense. It doesn't make sense for all the reasons you're spelling out: the amount of effort to keep those big instances going is expensive, and there's no real funding model for it, and beyond that there's not enough win to justify the work.

But a "network" of hundreds of thousands or millions of tiny instances, maybe paradoxically, doesn't have this same spam/trolling problem, any more than RSS did when we were all using Google Reader. You see posts from people you follow. Because most people aren't on big shared instances, you're not pulling lots of random traffic in to begin with.

Again: think of this like Blogger and Google Reader mashed together, with Twitter's surface-level user experience. I think it'll work fine, and I think it does most of what Twitter did (and some additional things). People forget that the "blogosphere" worked pretty great before Twitter and Facebook wrecked it. I think there's a good chance we're heading back towards something that works like blogs did.

It's much older than that. There was that one guy who was the founding commissioner of the US Federal Bureau of Narcotics back in 1930s, and he was obsessed with the dangers of weed in particular:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_J._Anslinger

As to why, the guy had many purported horror stories to tell about weed - collecting such was his hobby. Often, although not always, they boiled down to overt or covert racism. Some choice examples:

“There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the U.S., and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing result from marijuana use. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others.”

“I think the traffic has increased in marihuana, and unfortunately particularly among the young people. We have been running into a lot of traffic among these jazz musicians, and I am not speaking about the good musicians, but the jazz type.”

“Colored students at the Univ. of Minn, partying with female students (white) smoking and getting their sympathy with stories of racial persecution. Result: pregnancy.”
The value of past tweets, like the value of old newspapers, is very low. It's not investment that matters but habits. Those people who's habits haven been disrupted are already disrupted so moving on for them is much easier.

It was pure defeat. the purpose of passing it toothless is to be able to say "look we passed it" and the purpose of making it toothless was to to make the passing of it meaningless. It became a 100% waste of time and effort, circumvented by politicians in corporations pockets who don't care about anything but ingratiating themselves into the wallets of the rich for future funding.
