> I guess it all depends what kind of game you're making. The whole point of aoe damage is to hit multiple targets, having game to give option to just say "lol, no, you can't hit many units coz they are spread out automatically" makes the interaction shallower.

That just becomes another aspect of the strategic and tactical trade-offs! As the commander do I want to space my forces out, reducing their vulnerability to artillery but potentially making it take longer for the column to bring a deciding volume of fire to bear once they reach the front, possibly feeding them piecemeal into the teeth of the enemy? Has the enemy favored more artillery versus less? Are these units needed in battle this instant?

Basically the classic Napoleonic dilemma of when to deploy the troops from column into line.

But yeah as you say, it totally depends on the game that is being made.
Using an automation framework, the joint team at Redis and Intel created multiple build variants of compilers (gcc v9.4, gcc v11, and clang v14) and compiler flags. In addition compilers and flags for dependencies were changed. In total 24 different build variants were used.

I'm hiring for software engineers, with a focus on cloud infrastructure. We'll be developing infrastructure for data analysis and storage, processing and analysis pipelines, and internal applications. Engineering writes code mostly in Python, while our scientists prefer R. We use Google Cloud Platform for our infrastructure. Currently, the team is just me, but we are looking to hire at least 1 more full time engineer.

An ideal candidate will have at least 2 years of experience developing software in a professional environment, with at least 1 year of that working with Google Cloud Platform.

Nice-to-haves are experience with scientific computing, experience with bioinformatics tools and/or biological and medical data, and experience with Python, R, PostgresSQL, and containers. Experience securing data and applications would also be nice.

There's a small amount more about the company at: https://pathos.com/

I have done this more than once and it is great. Point django at your db, dump the models, and then use django's test framework.
Add another exporter to the `otel-config.yaml` and if they support it properly that should literally be all it takes. That said, "if they support it properly" is exactly what otel is working on. It's super stable for a <v1 release but is still missing some features and polish imho that prevents it from getting the official v1 tag.

layout is suspended automatically. Unless you query the dom for something, in which case you can get lots of thrashing. For example, you don’t want to add some dom elements, then get their height/width as that will force the layout. And don’t do that in a loop! Last I looked, addjng/removing dom elements only schedules the layout and repaint. Things have gotten more multithreaded since I looked at browser code for this, but I doubt they would make a performance regression here.

I remember as a kid we had textbooks that explained that the CORONA satellites were state of that art and used for surveillance. This was in the early 00s. Even then I looked at those little things and came to the conclusion that this was not in fact the entire extent of the US surveillance capabilities.
The truth doesn't matter. What matters is how closely your speech patterns mirror "Putin talking points". Even if those "taking points" happen to be true.

I'm not catholic so please help me out here. If you cannot use requested pronouns, does your religion also ban you from using nicknames? Is it okay for you to be called User23? Is it okay to say someone's cat is cute even if you don't really care for cats? What do you do if your partner asks if they look good or bad in something?
They can understand faster. But not learn (remember) faster.

I think higher IQ people might in some cases learn faster because if they understand the thing they are trying to remember, they can "replay it" in their heads bumping up the number of exposures which might help remembering. But not everyone with high IQ does that.
Are there explicit or implicit religious qualifications necessary? i.e. will an atheist not be considered for promotion, or a Buddhist not hired at all?

Read up a bit on the hierarchy systems found in various non-human primate societies. Religious status is just another convenient and easily-rationalized ordering metric.
Ehh. I dunno, if that's "mainstream", why is this the third+ time this has had to be fought for? (BLM, Civil Rights, Civil War).

We've had pictures of MLK in schools, Civil Rights has been "supported by government", roads were named after people, there were and are enormous foundations with staff, and it's definitely in college curriculums - and it's been that way for an entire human lifetime...

...and yet the same fight is being fought again.

I'd figure if something achieved "mainstream", it wouldn't have to happen again and again.

Sure seems tough to convince people to voluntarily consume less. Relying on that as a strategy seems… fraught.
I dunno man, I'm with the poster above (do we call that the gp?): We have lots of evidence that people in general don't have great truthiness filters for things they read online, and we have a tool that can very confidently say things that seem truthy but are not. Even before the internet, just in the age of radio and early TV, Churchill said "A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."

Now we have a tool that isn't lying through malice, volition, or any sort of intent, and that will combine jargon and phrases that seem authoritative into its misinformation.

IMO responsible engineering involves considering the ups and downs of each solution - that's where the famous HA saying "if you have two you have one; if you have one you have none" comes from, dictating that we need at least 3 instances of a server for high-availability, right? What would it take to engineer this new tech for high accuracy? Where is anything other than the hubris of "we were so busy asking if we _could_, we never stopped to ask if we _should_" ?
Your comment only says that it was mostly in RSU, and since the stock had been going down it will likely be worth 1/3 by the time it vests.

> We don't want an AI taking care of us when we're sick

Debatable, what if...

- there are not enough doctors to see patients

- it meant I could be seen immediately vs having to wait 1+ hours

- my doctor had instant access to all medical knowledge and the wisdom of 1M+ hours of practice

- there is a pandemic where a robot is much easier to sterilize between patient visits

There are people already willing on a personal / social level to see an artificial doctor, doctors are already incorporating AI into their practice to help reduce errors, it's hard to believe it will never happen. The context of the visit or stay will play into acceptance

You have defined a too narrow definition of "flawed logic" in order to make a counterargument which still doesn't defy the argument the original comment has made. Then you make a baseless assumption in your last sentence that the commenter has not thought through the implications of the idea that not everyone can learn college algebra. Your writing is also honestly a bit difficult to understand so i assume you're learning English.

I am a former data monkey turned full-stack software engineer based out of Toronto. I have 2 years of open-source experience as well as 4 years in a technical role at a software start up, which has taught me to adapt quickly and effectively communicate within cross-functional, remote teams. Recently, I designed and built an open-source observability framework for serverless functions with 3 other engineers. Check it out here: https://try-firefly.github.io/

I love diving deep into complex problems, learning new technologies and working collaboratively to get the job done. Even if the tech stack isn’t a 100% fit, please reach out!
I've heard this explanation before but it sounds like one of those "it sounds plausible, so people will keep repeating it" explanations.

I suspect the real reason is what the author of the post claims – Google sends more readers to articles with lots of fluff.

> This food blogger wrote about an experiment she conducted. She listened to some of her readers and actually tried just putting the recipe up top before everything else. All of the articles in her experiment went lower in the rankings.

> Gatsby Cloud is a Netlify competitor

That's a bold assumption. What's Gatsby Cloud's market share? Zero-point-something percent?
Say what you will about Dang and their moderation style, but whatever is causing this thread to stay up for 7+ hours (and climb the front page) is very intriguing.

I wonder what the logic is for this 'flamewar bait' being unmoderated (is there anything more primed for a 'flamewar' than arguing about which cultures are mainstream and which are not?)
The problem will not be that the value of content will drop to zero, but that the value of asking someone else to ask ChatGPT for me and then wrap it in ads for me to view is very low compared to the inevitable result of I'll just ask ChatGPT or similar directly.

Its the LMFGTFY or whatever the acronym for "let me google that for you" brought to ChatGPT topics.

If, for example, as already seems to be the case, the news becomes nothing more than someone else generated algorithmic fluff mixed with censored propaganda that somehow ends up with lower trust metrics than actual email spam, why do I need someone to make that for me, just ask for my own copy. The future will not be CNN trying to lie to you and sell you stuff, it'll be the AI directly lying to you and trying to sell you stuff, CNN will no longer be a provider of value. Or MSNBC or Fox or BBC or your choice of propaganda outlet.

The other side problem is if you want culinary excellence today you'll eventually find guidance to buy "modernist cuisine at home" or similar technical cookbooks or maybe some old Alton Brown TV show memes, but search engines are required by corporate to have total randos provide opinions about page quality and needs met that are going to be uneducated and thus generic/bland and are designed to select inoffensive bland middle of the road content, not excellent recipes. What appeals to children more, an animated skinner box / loot box paradise designed to attract their attention and lure them in, or a calculus textbook? If corporate goal is to maximize the former you'll get more of the former, but what if the latter is the only way to learn calculus? Well, you aint going to learn calculus, thats for sure.

How AI / ChatGPT will avoid bland normie ignorance is an excellent question. How to provide bland middle of the road answers to bland middle of the road questions is essentially a solved problem; how to cook the best hamburger possible cannot be handled by that subculture where groupthink conforming to average blandness is the primary criteria enforced.
Here's my general opinion. This is advice I gave to my children as well.

You're young. You're at the age where taking risks and maybe eating a little dirt as a result is a thing you can tolerate -- or at least tolerate a lot more than later in life. Take the risks now, when the worst-case results are things you can recover from relatively easily.

Yeah, that’s already the case with every online service. They don’t need to be vague — they don’t have to give any reason for banning you.
If the AI objectively does a better job at summarizing the meeting, then maybe someone who cares about the project should use the AI instead of taking notes by hand.
Why are there so many "Zapier alternatives"?
In elementary school they hardcode the multiplication table and they do test for them, at least it was my experience. For some weird reason we were taught to remember 8x125 is 1000. It came handy maybe 3 times in the past 35 years, but in those cases people looked at me like a wizard :)

> Test's are useful precisely to gauge human retention/understanding

Indeed, and these models are also compressing information they were trained on. It makes sense to test them how well can we access and query that knowledge.

I'm not saying at all, that passing tests make them human or anything like us, but it speaks a lot about the quality of the model. It's not the ultimate quality check of course, but it's an important one, because you can assign a score to the results of the test.

> Its like applauding the calculator for doing math.

Show that calculator to Charles Babbage, he would be in awe :) This is probably the leap why most people are freaking out, it feels a significant step towards intelligent machines regardless of the system under the hood.

I actually tested ChatGPT, (like a few million other people). I'm not saying it was done with scientific rigour of course. It passed a few flawlessly and failed some other. I believe I know what I'm interacting with, I've read about how GPT works and I'm planning to learn more. Don't worry about my enthusiasm :)
I have never heard a republican say something positive about white people. Can you give me an example? For the amount of dog whistling the GOP has done over the years the complete dearth of any explicit pandering to white Americans is actually shocking and deserving of a proper explanation.

Great explanation. Very proper. Much explanation. Thanks for the example /s

Arguments you cant argue against are not a “dishonest script” what does that even mean? Just give an example of what you say Republicans do a good job of.
The Crypto Job Market Looks Strong
Ask HN: Fake Job Candidates?
We're recently seeing a plague of fake job candidates.

We've seen:

* fake github accounts

* ...with stolen, bot generated content that looks like their contributions

* candidates who manage to not remember their own name/getting it wrong/joining zoom with wrong name

* we hear from colleagues guy who shows up on Monday for work doesn't look like the guy who was interviewed

* recently we dismissed developer after discovering he was working (also full time) at another company (we coordinated termination on both sides - I'm not even sure if it made him without work or just removed 2 out of N jobs)

How do you deal with this spam?

Are you using some services to filter this out?

Is ie. github interested in fighting those spam constellations of fake accounts?

How do you work with people without being an asshole to ensure they also play fair?
Barclays made £7b profit last year. Nobody would be stupid enough to claim that the prime minister personally stepped in to get them another £12m (which they will have to give away in grants).
[Disclaimer: I work in the Netlify DX team]

I recognize that fear. And have made similar observations of the current landscape.

Our hope in this instance is actually that the opposite is true.

The goal of this acquisition is not to OWN a JavaScript framework. Gatsby Inc is far bigger than Gatsby.js

The Gatsby.js project will join the Solid.js and Eleventy open source projects that Netlify already support through full time employment but who's roadmaps and operations are their own. Using those tools is not a means for Netlify to funnel developers into our platform, nor a means to attempt to lock users in. Our philosophy is that an abundance and variety of such tools is good for the web (and as a result good for us). Also that more tools will come in future and that we'd like to try to provide the best experience and support for whatever those might be down the line. We can't own it all. We'd prefer to support it.

Meanwhile, Gatsby Inc have created very powerful build and content orchestration tooling which is currently only available to Gatsby.js users. This acquisition will result in those capabilities being made available to any frameworks further helping all comers to the frameworks landscape.

One common theory is it's being used to do close-up inspections of other countries' satellites. Bonus points if you can attach a magnetic limpet mine to them for future usage.

There is not :)
> At no point in history have people created so much with so few channels for consuming their work. Most consumers get their content through a narrow straw — TikTok’s “For You” page, the first page of Google’s search results, Instagram’s explore tab, miscellaneous streaming sites, and so on. Many lifetimes worth of creation get aggressively filtered down into a (very optimized) stream of content.

Every person's TikTok feed is different, the first page of search results for every query is different, etc. Never have there been so many channels for consuming content.

In fact, the complaint I hear more often from people is that society has too many countercultures. Of course they don't call them that -- they call them "filter bubbles," "extremist groups," or more derogatory terms, but aren't they the same thing?
