I served tables and washed dishes and ran cash registers while getting my EE degree. When I was running a cash register, I didn't ask for a tip when I rung someone up for a coffee or twinkie. I did get tips as wait staff because that's been a tradition for 100+ years in the USA. Don't assume when someone says something that you don't like that they were born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

Another argument you might appreciate - there is some practical limit to the number of people who can live in a HCOL area (from the available housing stock). Say that is N people. The market will organise itself so that the price is just high enough that person N+1 can't afford to live there.

Of course a lot of the people who live in a HCOL of living area feel like they can only just afford to live there. If they thought it was cheap, more of their class would move there - it is a desirable area. You have to be so rich that everyone in your wealth/income class can afford to live in an area before housing costs will be low enough to ignore. So the top 100 billionaires don't feel the housing costs of living in a HCOL area because all the billionaires in the world could probably move there and not fill up the available housing stock. But if all the millionaires in the world want to move somewhere then the price will be high enough that a millionaire feels like they can't afford to be in the area. And that is really just a subtle market hint that a lot of millionaires think it is a nice area. Doesn't make the people involved less rich.
Good for Joe. Bad for Spotify users. I would personally much rather they invested in fixing bugs and UI problems with $200 million... than acquiring one (highly controversial, increasingly irrelevant) podcast.

As someone who doesn't particularly like Rogan's work (no offense to anyone who does!), I guess I'm glad Spotify hastened his decline by walling him off in their private garden.

Right after an outage of course it will show like that.

After an AWS outage it would also look non favourably on AWS right?
That is largely hobby painting and learning to paint. You’re conflating human skill to learn and adapt and go through a relaxing exercise to AI generated. It’s not a serious argument.

I think the biggest problem with AI driving is that while there are plenty of dumb human drivers there are also plenty of average drivers and plenty of skilled drivers.

For the most part, if Tesla FSD does a dumb thing in a very specific edge case, ALL teslas do a dumb thing in a very specific edge case and that's what humans don't appreciate.

A bug can render everyone's car dumb in a single instance.
The more realistic scenario is they charge money to use it. A few cents per query or so and you'll cut out almost all the traffic while still keeping it available to anyone making good use of it.
If you're selecting 10% or 5% or 1% that are interesting to bring into an interview, what is a false negative?

I'm not going to claim that the ones selected are the best or that I'm missing ones that I would give a thumbs up to if I had the time to interview every candidate.

Instead I'm looking for "are they applying to this job? Do they have some of the skills that the job is looking for and have claimed to use those particular skills in a past job or project? Do they have a history that demonstrates that they're likely to stay around after becoming a positive contributor?"

I've got an excel spreadsheet where I am to give a 1 to 5 score for each of the skills (1 is "no claim of the skill being used" to 5 of "specifically claimed to use the skill in a current project or role"). The next column is "average tenure in months" and lastly there is a column for red flags or green flags. You will note that nothing in there asks about past company or school. Considering schools can get into trouble for discrimination if the person went overseas or to a HBCU. If you want to call out something (the candidate spelled JavaScript as 'java script', "JavaScript" and "java Script" (with java lower case and bold)) then that can be put in the red flags.

From that list (and multiple people all fill that out for all resumes), HR then selects the ones to move to the next round of interviews.

If I am looking for code the candidate wrote that can cause problems with discrimination suits at this level of the interview. If we look for any blog posts on them or social media they've written, we open ourselves up to lawsuits and claims of biased hiring.

When it comes to code, we have a take home test that is given to those who are selected. Having the take home up front has been met with "but you aren't paying me to do this" or other forms of refusal to do it... and I'm not going to go through and review 100 submissions - I don't have the time for that.

For that code part of the interview, again, there is a rubric that is set down such that anyone reviewing the code should come to the same conclusion.

And while it seems a bit impersonal, the key is that the same criteria is applied to everyone and if someone else was to watch a recording of the interview (this isn't done, but its the hypothetical goal) that they would come to the same conclusions based on that same rubric for evaluating the candidate.
I'd argue that is the fundamental difference though - brains that were able to make good guesses about what was going on in the environment with very limited information are the ones whose owners reproduced successfully etc. And it's not unreasonable to note that the information available to the brains of our forebears is therefore in a rather indirect but still significant way "encoded" into our brains (at birth).
Do LLMs have an element of that at all in their programming? Do they need more, and if so, how could it be best created?
Looks like I am going to stop feeding then. Donating electricity and bandwidth to an open source project and donating to a massive corporation just aren't the same thing. Pay me and I will turn it back on, but until then I guess it is going to sit idle.
Yeah, you can buy similar prefab homes on Amazon. Actually most of the ones linked from blog posts are now "currently unavailable", and most of the ones that show up in search results now are sheds or cabins with no bathrooms. But here's one with a bathroom and is ready to buy for $8,800. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6V1G81D/
Seems like the more likely option. They could be used to live scan every post to work out what it's about and it's sentiment. Similar to how ChatGPT can work out if you are asking for something it won't answer, they could be used to work out if you are saying something not allowed.

Sorry to hear that. Same thing happened in Loudoun county VA (us-east-1). It used to be a beautiful rural county with farmland or forests but last I was there is was absolutely covered with hulking concrete data centers with giant fences around them.

I can’t say it’s worth it. The AWS console should show how many acres of forest were plowed under for every EMR cluster that gets launched.
This looks really interesting but I can’t make heads or tails about what this is? Is it a running dialogue of djb and NIST?

True. I wonder if social workers would find themselves in the "not allowed to strike" group of government employees.
Because many languages don't require whitespace between symbols (e.g. x) and operators (e.g. +). So in Python, x+3 is valid (x plus three). As is x+y. And x-y. So how does the interpreter/compiler know if coffee-bean is a single variable, or an operation (coffee - bean) between two variables?

> But Fairbanks told the Los Angeles Record that he intended to show “the South Americans as we think of them rather than as they are.”

Reminds me of another movie, Down Argentine Way (1940), which literally opens with Carmen Miranda doing a stereotypical "South American" song and dance which angered Argentine audiences of the time so much that the movie got banned. From Wikipedia [1]:

> However, the film was banned in Argentina after being "hissed off the screens" by audiences there for misrepresenting the real culture of the country, wrongly including many Mexican and Caribbean mannerisms and costumes, as if they were part of the Argentine landscape.

Reading OP's article it seems the Argentine government around that time was all too keen on banning films though.

Nonetheless Down Argentine Way was selected for the US National Film Registry [2].

The reason we (most of us) can’t have kebab-case is the same reason it mostly occurs in lisps and other declarative syntaxes: infix operators. ie if you can have identifiers or keywords like-this and you can also have subtraction like-this, you have some serious syntax ambiguities to deal with.

As far as keyboard navigation around partial or whole words, I find it really helpful to have separate keybindings. For me (on a Mac so keyboard layouts matter), opt+left/right moves a “whole word” (as in to the nearest non-word character) and ctrl+left/right moves to the nearest internal word boundary (where boundary is mostly arbitrary; in bouncyCase it moves to the nearest non contiguous case change, in any-punctuated_case it moves to the nearest punctuation).

Agree it’s frustrating how much this varies by editor, but being able to configure the behavior is one of my first checks when deciding if I’ll use the editor at all.

I do wish more attention was paid to the ballooning disk space requirements for both.

I think Cargo is doing better, but I've yet to get a shared directory working for every build on a system. I shouldn't have to spend 2G per Rust project.
These are some good differences. Personally, the one thing I do miss from the modern package managers is the Java-style namespacing that piggy-backs on DNS. I wonder if there is some project out there that has decided to piggy-back on ENS namespacing. And then you can have eth.renewiltord and have your packages under that, and then when your projects are all quite established, your ENS domain will have a public value that matches the exploit surface if someone were to get it. And then you can sell it and reap the rewards of EEEEVIL!

kebab-case is all very well as long as a hyphen is not treated as the 'minus sign'

Many years ago, I was programming in COBOL, where kebab-case is the norm. For a while there I was programming in both "C" AND in COBOL. That was a nightmare, I invariably used the wrong syntax for my variable-names, as both languages used incompatible syntax for those variable-names.

- power efficiency? that could have been tuned by software

- price? maybe they wanted to save on the SSD to improve other parts?

Really beautiful UI but unfortunately I can't use it on my phone either. iPhone SE (1st gen.) 320px wide viewport.

I know it's a small phone, but I don't think I've ever come across a web page that blocked me from interacting with it due to the screen size. Regardless of whether you decide it's worth it to support smaller screen sizes I would absolutely recommend removing the page-mask/sorry-prompt. You never know what kind of device/browser your web page will be rendered on and overflowing the viewport is the expected behavior when the viewport is very small.

There are plenty of types of locking mechanisms. A semaphore is a specific type of such. Sure, they might look different on different systems, or have different surfaces, but all should (or at least the ones I've seen) have an integer. Unless the term has been overloaded (sigh) and it's come to mean different things.
It's a lot more than that if you're doing cross-platform (many) builds. It's a real pain.

>It looks like there's no penalty on this processor, though I would be surprised if it does not have a branch predictor / return stack tracking at all

One potential explanation is that a lot of processors have "meta" predictors. That is, they have multiple distinct predictors that they then use a second level predictor to decide when and how they use it. This is really useful because some predictors perform very well in certain cases but very poorly in others. Therefore, what may be happening is that the RAS is getting overridden by another structure since the predictor detects that the RAS is frequently wrong but another predictor is frequently right.
Yandex.Robot is probably a food delivery robot.
They have automated monitoring that would alert SREs before a support ticket likely would. Do you really think someone working on an OS would be using Cloud SQL regularly to notice? Maybe a developer of an Android app is (1) using Cloud SQL (over firestore?) and (2) has monitoring that would alert them effectively and (3) determine the cause is Google and send a support ticket.

As an exercise, which is likely to reach the SRE first?
I refuse to believe that customers getting "cheaper goods" is dependent on employees having to piss in bottles to keep their jobs, or employees suffering twice the number of severe injuries as other warehouse workers. Surely, selling counterfeit/fraudulent products and allowing scammers to have free run of their platform isn't a requirement for consumers getting inexpensive goods either. Amazon pockets billions every year. They can more than afford to treat their employees and their customers better without raising prices a single penny and still remain profitable. Less profitable perhaps, but profitable.

Amazon should be held accountable for their failures and for the harms they are causing to both customers and employees so that the next company to rise up knows that abusing workers and turning a blind eye to fraud won't be tolerated and that the laws and protections enacted to rein in amazon's exploitative practices will effect them as well.
Yandex used (maybe still using) SVN monorepo named Arcadia for most of the source code. As it became too big, they developed an in-house VCS called Arc and were switching to it; there is more context in a presentation about Arc (2020), transcript/recording in Russian[1]

I could assume that this is the leak of Arcadia, and each archive roughly contains one top-level folder.

I also have never been able to count the number of people who make obviously invalid optimistic prediction without understanding the tech nor the limitation of the current paradigm. They don’t see the tech itself, but only see the recent developments (ignoring the decades of progress) and concludes it is a fast moving field. It all sounds like what bitcoin people used to say.

This whole debate is another FOMO shitshow. People just don’t want to “miss” any big things, so they just bet on a random side rather than actually learning how things work. Anything past this point is like watching a football game, as what matters is who’s winning. Nothing about the tech itself matters. A big facepalm I should make.

the headline is overhyped:

> Reddit said it plans to backfill most of the impacted roles, and may adjust or move staff to other teams. It plans to continue to hire and grow its total headcount in 2023, particularly in engineering, data science, and sales.

> It also just hired its first chief revenue officer, Harold Klaje. "Our business is good, and we're continuing to hire this year and we're opening up new markets," Klaje told Insider in a recent interview. "We kind of ignore the macro-economic trend."

They're using the current economic environment to restructure, let some people go, and hire different people.
Though if it comes an AI with the capacity to include more context (ie: all company financials, communications, market analysis, etc...) it might be even more effective than a human with precise context.

Communication might be strictly email in the future. Or something that could be pipelined into the "AI" for context. Video/Calls might make it too at some point. Face to Face meetings strictly prohibited.

I'm more of a camelCase person than a snake_case, probably because I've been writing lots of JavaScript for the last 10 years. But, .... You could argue that camelCase is culturally insensitive given that plenty of languages (Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hindi, Sanskrit, etc) have no concept of case.

Many modern computer languages (JavaScript, Rust, Swift, ...) allow non-ascii identifiers so if you pick camelCase, then someone writing Japanese, Chinese, Korean has no way to obey. That doesn't mean snake_case would be all that better in those languages though.

var 画面＿幅 = ...;
var 窓＿縦 = ...;

The point is, both camelCase and snake_case are a thing based around western languages.
I tailor my resume to almost every company where I seem like I could fit. Especially since I’ve had a lot of jobs and a subset is more interesting to an employer than a different subset, and I like to keep page count to 2-3 pages max even though I could probably do a 7 page resume.

A major pain point in doing this is you lose track of what you said and to whom, especially if you include cover letters (which I also do).

What I learned that is helpful is to save every version of your resume/cover letter including any sources (latex), and timestamp/date these resumes. Do this even if you didn’t tweak your resume, space is cheap.

Anyway I found that to be real helpful to track what resume I’ve sent out and what it says.
