Yeah, day by day it's not important - how full your bowels and bladder or how much water you're retaining are going to effect you more than your 24 hours of weight loss. It's a waste to sample that often and can be discouraging for no reason. It's really week by week and using that data to calculate a trend.

Every place has bias in their hiring. It's literally the point of screening candidates. This place chooses to bias against folks who just want to code at work and want to use a traditional resume. Makes sense when every hire can make or break your company and you don't have the resources to put someone through a multi-month boot camp before letting them touch the code base.

Most of the things I have bought, I've gotten used to, and brought me only short term happiness.

There are some exceptions:

- Financial stability for my family.

- Some musical instruments/equipment have given me lots of long term enjoyment. But I also have some stuff I only used a couple times.

- Trips. I love remembering the places I've visited and who I was with.

- Books.
I can never tell what I'm supposed to be optimizing personal PC workstations for. And at this point I'm too embarrased to ask.

I like the ideas, in the abstract, of optimizing for extreme silence (zero moving parts in OP's previous DB4 build), or extreme compactness (like this oddity), and so forth. I'm sure they're all terribly wrong choices for me personally, but I'm glad other people are exploring them, that the solution space is well characterized.

The ‘no true democrat’ fallacy?
Everyone views the world through their own lens. We are individuals. Why would I express someone else’s view?

Spending your life trying to outsmart the inevitability of death is a futile waste of a life. Money isn’t the issue, but it does afford one the ability to indulge delusions like immortality to a ludicrous degree.
No. You are going to charge up for longer trips e.g. on holidays.
> Recognizes "human" and recognizes "desk". I sit on desk. Does AI mark it as a desk or as a chair?

Not an issue if the image segmentation is advanced enough. You can train the model to understand "human sitting". It may not generalize to other animals sitting but human action recognition is perfectly possible right now.
I wouldn't be surprised. "spend more time with family" is a classic lie when fired.

I do believe in this too, yet I've been told a few times that in some countries or corpos people tend to care about this and I do wonder whether I should have "targeted CVs"
I have to say... there's something kind of demoralizing about this and some of the other shenanigans happening right now.

I'm part of a local YIMBY group advocating for more housing and you see some really rough stories about people who are employed, work hard, and still can't put a roof over their heads. And then you see stuff like this.

In theory, yes.

The practical application of this is a different story.

But there is a problem with trying to compare this to things like iOS and phones. Phones are strongly application based, it is completely common to have your data locked up in an app and getting to another app has varying levels of difficulty.

In Windows it is much more common for data to be file based, and applications can be launched and ran by clicking the file. File security is based on the user, so typically any application can access files owned by the same user. A huge portion of workflows would break if this were not the case.

#1. This is still prolific absolutely everywhere. It's a good chance it is happening on your computer right now. It happens mobile app stores (application releases go through a very rudimentary set of checks and only end up thoroughly analysed by security researchers when the application becomes flagged). It's very common within internal networks and even more so when it comes to outgoing traffic.

#2. This is still sold by security consultancy firms as a service, it's again, incredibly prolific in a lot of places.

#3. Likewise, still a very popular service sold by security consultancy firms.

#5. Still common to this day, services such as vishing/phishing assessments test for user education.
> if you consider common skills like Jupyter notebook and git your competitive advantage (the only reason to include them in your resume), I would automatically assume that you have no other competitive advantage

I get this, yet, at the same time, I've been asked by recruiters if I was comfortable working with "git flow with Gitlab and Jira" since I did not name any of those in my Resume.

I wonder if I've ever been filtered at first instance for small annoyances like this, it's hard to build a good resume when everyone is looking for something different so I would appreciate if things like adding keywords would not count as a deterrent.
Oh you're absolutely right about Chrome, I'm just not sure why you mention 'anti-Apple', because Apple's leverage is being used in many of the same ways, just much more aggressively than 'best viewed in IE', instead it's 'App Store/WebKit/<choose your monoculture> or pound sand'.
We noticed that too and thought scripts with simple main functions and their parameters could be the universal layer for integrations, so we (Windmill) built an open-source hub for it https://hub.windmill.dev

Pipedream (which is probably Automatisch main competitor) also has a repo full of integrations: https://github.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream. Their format is a bit more specific than Windmill.

Hopefully, we all agree on a format and differentiate ourselves on the quality of the orchestration, flow capabilities, performance etc ...
Not advocating one way or the other, but this is often the reason people give for enjoying the rare/occasional use of things like LSD or psilocybin. By temporarily attenuating the "default model" established in early adulthood - which allows our brains to operate more efficiently by setting much of sensory input and perception on autopilot - one might approach and consider the mundane with the proverbial "fresh set of eyes".

I don't mean to argue that this is an ideal way to achieve this effect, but it's definitely a major part of the appeal.
>It seems unfair to penalize people for playing the game and attempting to maximize their chances for success. It forces people to make a choice where they're effectively rolling the dice as to what the best course of action is -- either they optimize for the reality that resumes are largely computer screened, or they optimize for humans hoping that it's not. I don't think you should blame people for optimizing for what is likely the most common scenario.

At first, I disagreed with you because I assumed if Chip took the time to write this post, she must be linking it or at least making it clear from the job postings. I just checked the job postings[0, 1], and they never tell the candidate that a co-founder reads every application personally nor give any indication that they're handling applications with more care than the average company (and the average company treats candidates like garbage).

So, I agree. If you don't tell candidates that you're unique in the way that you process applications, you can't expect candidates to approach you differently than they approach most employers, who reward keyword stuffing.

I have a similar hiring process to the author, but I spell out in my job posting that I, the founder, am reading every application personally.[2]

Doubtful? You can read the source of the GPU process in Chrome. Drivers are more complex.
I wonder if this is due to lack of job experience at that young age? Prior to that, young adults were in school, which fostered a community view beyond just paying for classes/degree. I know I learned about how large corps view labor when I worked summers at a big box retailer. I viewed that as purely transactional as well: I stock shelves, you give me money.

Plus Gen-X often watched our parents get laid off when we were younger, so there's that lesson too.

> But the article talk about the importance of multiple objectives and doesn't extends much on that. I just don't understand the difference between that and collecting keys, in the historical context.

Objectives were varied. Sometimes you had to kill a specific character or destroy an item, sometimes you had to photograph or collect an object. They could (sometimes) be done out-of-order, were different on each level and each difficulty setting. this is quite different to Doom-style key collecting.

Not if you subscribe to the precautionary principle

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precautionary_principle

"The principle is often used by policy makers in situations where there is the possibility of harm from making a certain decision (e.g. taking a particular course of action) and conclusive evidence is not yet available. For example, a government may decide to limit or restrict the widespread release of a medicine or new technology until it has been thoroughly tested. The principle acknowledges that while the progress of science and technology has often brought great benefit to humanity, it has also contributed to the creation of new threats and risks. It implies that there is a social responsibility to protect the public from exposure to such harm, when scientific investigation has found a plausible risk. These protections should be relaxed only if further scientific findings emerge that provide sound evidence that no harm will result."

And my own two cents based on my experience:

I would suggest people use email canaries which are simply email aliases that map to ones email account. If a site refuses to accept that email address that is a red flag to stay far away from that business.

My suggestion may appear redundant as they do mention in the article to create many email addresses but those email address examples they give are bad. If for example your email is related to Netflix, do not put netflix in the email address. That is a dead give-away that you are using a canary. Companies are wising up to this. Instead add a comment in the email alias notes if using a paid provider such as Fastmail or in the mapping file as a comment if self hosting email.

I'm still fairly new to Nebula but I am enjoying it. However I use the RSS feeds to subscribe to only the channels that I am interested in. I agree that their discovery isn't great. But honestly that isn't too important to me. I can discovery new channels other ways.
> Some people get joy out of optimizing their life - I don't.

Yes do, you just optimize for different things which you mentioned in the last paragraph. There is no escaping the need to optimize, so the chase is true for all of us even if the objectives differ.
I am very biased as I am Canadian and have lived in Canada my whole life. However, my wife is Australian and I have visited many times. We have looked into moving there and the only thing that really stops us is our pets due to the significant quarantine requirements.

I would say Canada's tech sector is larger, mostly because of our proximity to the States but Australia has a very large and vibrant tech sector; like most places, mostly found in the major cities: Sydney and Melbourne. When I have looked for work there I have found no shortage of jobs opportunities. However, I have not looked during this most recent economic recession.

Do you plan to become a citizen? If so you may consider the politics of each country. In the grand, Canada is more liberal whereas Australia is more conservative. However, both offer significant social services.

Do you plan to travel? Asia is closer to Australia, with Tokyo being nearly equidistant between Sydney and Vancouver. Europe is closer to Canada, especially Eastern Canada where many major/prominent Universities are located (I went to school on the West Coast so I don't endorse those schools).

Do you plan on working in the States? I really don't know about how this works from an Australian perspective but US based companies have had no issues with my Canadian education and current place of residence (Canada and the US allow for fairly easy migration of professionals through our free trade agreements). I would assume Australia has similar, if not identical, standing but this may need further investigation.

What matters to you in your life? I think you would be equally happy regarding education and work opportunities so I would look at other priorities.
It requires a lot of capital. Most of them fail.

100% correct. You might have 2 factor enabled, so they also need to check that and phish the 2FA code as well. That 2FA code expires quickly, so it needs to be used in real time to get a session.

I'm sure there are some very basic phishing attacks that just save whatever you entered, but... let's avoid trying to come up with "clever hacks" that only lend a false sense of security.
Absolutely not. That's morally awful.

What do you believe your biggest challenges to adoption are? Also, Zapier’s value is in the long tail of integrations and their staff who keep those integrations working for their non technical user base when there are breaking changes (expected and otherwise). How will you solve for that? (Recently I thought ChatGPT might be a fun possible solution when Sentry gets the exception from an integration runner, and it could propose a code fix for the on call SRE or platform engineer, something to consider)

I'd posit the majority restaurants in your /s example don't have executives, bonuses, or stock buybacks. They're tiny little operations with tiny little profit margins.
It probably is important historically for console gamers who didn't really play quake or counterstrike online at the time(me), but played with their friends and family, the best part about goldeneye was multiplayer with friends with cheats enabled, so you could have your friends running around with huge heads. It had a very different style to halo which would come later I understand (I never played halo as I didn't have an xbox). It also looked amazing, for the time, had missions, which would eventually become a mainstay of first person shooters, although it does seem like half-life likely was in the planning stage at that point. It did feel clunky at times, even then.

I used to think it was the greatest fps ever, until I played quake-like games in my college years (well after it was a thing, when arena fpses were dying and before the advent of overwatch and eventually fortnite), and I realized how intense fpses could be while not being a point and click adventure (sorry cod fans, that sort of thing is not my speed).
I remember reading that early on in the telephone age, some people had leased their phones from the telephone company for $5 a month or so rather than buying one outright.

They then proceeded to pay that lease fee for decades, ultimately paying hundreds or thousands of dollars more than the cost of the phone, and continuing to pay that fee even when replacement phones could be had for $10 or less.

They designed it to do what I said (which is far from being an arbitrary algorithm), and then put it out there to find out what that would result in. Ex post facto anthropomorphizing about what some cherry-picked samples of output looks like does not even establish that it is doing those things, let alone that it was designed to do them.
"Instead, he said companies should consider race, gender and ethnicity when deciding who to let go."

I understand what this meant in the context of the article, but without context, this seems like a potentially dangerous statement.

> It’s not gatekeeping to value the outcomes of work created this way less than you would from the mind of a human.

There is a difference between saying something is less than and calling it gross. Also, imho, value of art is usually the art not the process. Sometimes it is the process, like someone showing off a new method but that is of interest to very, very few people. Just like academic papers' methodology section. Even within the larger community, it's useful to only a few people. (Apart from just checking someone's work)
Great find. Thanks for sharing.
That is completely fair. But I'm not going to act like there aren't thousands of scientists and business people who are 100% aware of what is going on. Many of whom work jobs whose PURPOSE is to destroy the effectiveness of the government.

Absolute bs. It's all about connections, the whole resume thing is bs. People in high positions are there because someone got them in. You need to be top 5% smart to make it there, and with SO MUCH effort and sacrifice to to achieve the same. Capitalism rewards entrepreneurship.
The problem is that they are highly specific. You would need the industrial machinery to manufacture a highly specific treatment. With anything in medicine/biology, specificity dramatically increases cost.

There's also the pre-treatment testing that would be necessary to determine what to target. There's also the shipment of a bacterial specimen that would be used to create a phage (which is something we don't do currently... we'll ship a specimen to a testing center, best case). Those are two different bacterial specimens needed. Then you have to ship the phages back. Alive. Then store and administer then properly. People fail to take their antibiotics properly. They're going to royally screw up phages.

What about bacteria that you can't culture (treponema pallidum, aka syphilis)?

All of this is in contrast to antibiotics.
Is it gram positive or gram negative? Treat. Did it work? Yes, good. No, treat again. Did it work? Yes, good. No, test for resistance. Move to a stronger antibiotic and repeat.

You really don't even need to know what the exact bacteria is that you're targeting with antibiotics.
A resume should only be considered a template or an overview of the person’s experience and skills.

Anyone can put keywords, metrics and effective processes.

I’ve never found a comp sci undergrad to have any trouble learning. Lack of passion, yes but this doesn’t translate to poor work performance.

Ultimately it boils down to how well the individual will work with the team and management. It’s more of a personality question.

Yes, but note how this press release is mostly explaining what this technology could eventually be used for. I'm not aware of any ACCs actually using it for oceanic control today or having made an announcement of planning to do so in the future.

It's a very exciting technology, sure, but I think it's many years of testing and flawless operation as a secondary data source away from replacing ADS-C on oceanic routes.
