> Your mistake is to assume that you (being there 5 year) is doing your work well and over the expectations,

You're willing to go the extent of accusing people you never met nor have any idea who and how they are of being incompetent at a job you don't even know just to preserve your cognitive dissonance.

> Important enough that your manager wants to secure you as part of the team.

Straight out of college I worked at a place where they handed me a 1 year contract where I was paid below market rate. When I was reaching the end of my contract I asked for a meeting to review my salary. I had a meeting but it's outcome was a firm "we want you here but we will only offer you the same pay". I sat on that and on the day before my auto renewal would kick in I handed my resignation. I was immediately pulled into a meeting with my manager where they promply offered me over 20% pay hike.

Do you honestly believe I only gained importance the moment I resigned? They were the same people who said a few days earlier in no unclear terms I was not getting a raise.

The most ridiculous aspect of your unfounded personal belief is this idea there's this universal performance evaluation law where every manager and every boss is binded to hand over rigorous pay adjustments reflecting anyone's performance, and that there is no such thing as being exploited. Back in the real world, the whole economy revolves around people trying to get more value while paying less, and there's a almost universal pressure to not only eliminate any kind of leverage from employees but also make them perfectly replaceable cogs in their machine. You are pressured to not discuss salary with your peers, let alone other employees. You get what you are paid, and you should feel happy for it. If you work hard that just means your boss is getting more returns over his low investment.
That sucks for everyone involved, but as long as GDP grows, wages grow, unemployment goes down, it seems hard for the government to justify intervention to protect "those pesky foreigners".

Yeah this might come back to bite them in the arse in the future but from a political point of view it seems unfeasible to do otherwise.
> Hand wringing over tax loss harvesting seems silly to me.

It seems very pertinent to me. Taxes pay for the common good.

If people are using loopholes or workarounds to not pay tax, then the common good suffers.

And we all benefit from the common good, even, maybe perhaps _especially_ the billionaires whose companies receive subsidies, or contracts from the government.

Totally agree, it's hard, but firing (or retaining) folks based on visa status is inherently unfair too. TBH, there should be some more reasonable period attached to most H-1B visas where holders are given six months to find a new job.
based on https://layoffs.fyi/ seems like 1M is rly a bit too much
And how is 1% of only batteries worse than throwing away the entire phone?
I agree caution is needed here. We have taken a few steps:

- Rate limits are enforced to provide caps on agent and function usage.

- Execution depth is capped to prevent the LLM from getting into loops.

- Function output is sanitized to prevent corruption of LLM state.

- Functions execute in a completely separate environment from the rest of the service, including the LLM, to reduce the impact from bad functions.

Note that this doesn't entirely prevent against "; DROP TABLES"-type hacks against the implementation of the function, but that problem isn't unique to us. It may however be possible for the LLM to look at function inputs and flag overtly malicious ones.

Another usecase:. Binary trees of compressed data.

Imagine you're compressing Wikipedia and want to get the best ratio possible while also being able to access randomly any article.

If you compress each article individually, words like 'citation needed' will end up replicated in most articles.

Another approach is to use a dictionary. This solves the citation needed usecase. But we can still do better. There will be lots of common content between the 'general relativity' and 'special relativity' pages, and likewise between the 'France' and 'Germany' pages. Ideally we'd have different dictionaries for different topics. But the dictionaries themselves have overlap, so it would be good to compress them.

So we end up with a tree-of dictionaries to decode any article.

However, if you now want to do a full decompression of every article, you ideally don't want to reprocess the dictionary for every decompression. So you want to be able to checkpoint the decompressor state.
What about an option for $5 for a month of access but no subscription? I originally considered $1 a per image download but then I thought it might take some finessing to get the image right and simply having a month to mess around might be a better deal.

This is a pretty cool tool. I might be one of those freeloaders that is happy with an SD image but I could really see using this. I picked a random screenshot of code I had and the result was awesome.
I'm not advocating bulldozing ancient churches or the pyramids, but to build those things (or modern equivalents in terms of resources as a percentage of resources available to the society at large) today would be supremely stupid and wasteful. Arguably, wasting resources on burial mounds might be part of why Ancient Egyptian civilization collapsed, just like the civilization of Rapa Nui (Easter Island) with their statues.

We still build great things, but today they're functional: skyscrapers, for instance. They're not really the most efficient type of building, but they are functional. And modern buildings are not devoid of ornamentation or signs of beauty, we just don't find gargoyles to be fashionable any more.
Hey, I had a stretch for almost 2 1/2 years where my work and field really no longer interested me.

I had really enjoyed it and then just felt like I had done it all.

It took a completely new market arriving with new technology and a new culture in the environment to finally snap me out of it.

The doldrums were f*cking awful. Eventually I realized I had to quit because I was so chronically unhappy and bored and underutilized.

my curiosity is the only thing that let me know when it was time. I simply couldn’t find anything better until I started fiddling around and fell deep into my side activities and finally had enough and quit.

If you are like me, you may literally have to leave behind an entire career in one market or skillset and plan on another ten year arc in some new growth market where all the fun is.

Financially this has been a heavy burden. I may or may not make it.
India needs this talent to come back. The H-1B holders will have no trouble finding a job back home, they are the best their country has to offer.

Show me any lithium battery-powered device that would last longer. They are all in the same ballpark and this is simply inherent in the way this tech works. Once another battery type surfaces in mobiles this might change, but still then you won’t get any meaningful differences as there is no order of magnitude difference between even the best and worst phones in power consumption and battery capacity.
The main contribution of this article appears to be a 54343 number for the people laid off during the 2000 dot com bubble, but I couldn't find a reference to back up that number.

I agree, I would also try to market this is as one tool (“Dramatic Screenshot”) of a larger “Screenshot Toolbox” or sth.
Well nuclear stans do what you did consistently, but actual exchange of ideas entails honestly responding rather than saying something unrelated but on a similar subject and pretending it is a response or carefully answering half of a sentence with something covered by the other half.

Why Apache/Linux? Is uutils part of the Apache foundation?
I think that's really all there is to it. They do have to pay the interest, and the cash they use to service the loan isn't untaxed, but they were paying that tax anyway. It does assume that the have the cashflow to service the loan completely independent of this deal, but the point is it means they get the best of all worlds: they get immediate access to the cash value of the stock, they don't pay taxes on that value, and they continue gaining as the stock increases even more in value. But you're right, they aren't really avoiding the tax on the stock gains, they're just deferring it way down the road, which is particularly beneficial when your heirs get to step up the basis of what they inherit.

The social contract isn't to be "only be ruled by a strict majority" but to agree to be ruled by the party who wins by any workable system.
I get that. But how much do you think $10M right now would compound to? How would that compare against an >$80B net worth?
I'd be very interested in a breakdown of the skills that are being laid off from 'tech', not only in terms of 'marketing', 'recruitment', 'management', 'engineering', 'massage', etc, but also for engineers, what skills eg 'junior', 'senior' 'frontend', 'backend', 'java', 'C++', etc.
Thank you for your feedback. We will improve our HTTP request in response to your query.

Our preferred method for setting up local development is through the use of a VSCode dev container, which can be found at https://www.activepieces.com/docs/contributing/local-develop....

Currently, we have not documented our use of docker-compose.dev as we are still testing it for compatibility with various systems, such as ARM-based machines like the M1 MacBook, which have encountered issues with docker-compose.dev.

However, if you prefer using docker-compose.dev over VSCode dev containers, you can run npm ci followed by running docker-compose.dev.

I hope you have a smooth experience with activepieces. If you encounter any issues, our team is available and responsive on Discord.

FTA they can be made to look like stone, wood, concrete or brick.

Seems like a great idea especially in the places where you need to match the style of buildings or cant change outward appearance.

Thatching might be difficult though...
They have 60 days. But in reality that's not enough.

And even then, applying while under H-1B puts you in a difficult position. You don't have that much choice, as your denial might result being out of status. Not to mention that companies might take advantage from it.
Yes, I agree they are slow.

They were very slow to confirm side effects (remember when people suffering with heart issues were ridiculed and ignored?).

Very slow to let everyone know that it wouldn't actually stop transmission (remember when we were told to get it to protect grandma? Or how about the messaging that 'breakthrough cases are very rare').

Very slow to reveal that effectiveness waned quite quicky.

These issues were quite obvious from the beginning. It's taken two years and only now can these be openly discussed without becoming a social pariah.
How do you measure robustness except with failures / years of service x times deployed ? You cannot make edge cases and strange unique behavior happen in a controlled environment.
Mac: USB-C

Magic Mouse: lightning

I have this work provided combo, and the mouse is the only device in the house that takes a lightning connector.

Cue frantically trying to find that cable every time it gets low..

USB-C and I could just plug the wall charger into it and be done with it.
The problem with "the process" has been exacerbated recently (I'd draw the line at COVID) by the breakdown of public trust in corporations and the media.

If you can't trust that somebody who has 10+ years of experience as an engineer at a FAANG company is competent, then that says something bad about social proof and confidence.

Bingo! Yeah, I was wondering the same while reading the article.

I suspect you already know that these millions of middle class people almost certainly would not have been paying taxes on that rise in the value of their primary residence, so no. A HELOC is not a tax dodge.
FWIW, the way roofs are designed these days (at least over here in Belgium) there is supposed to be a little bit of airflow underneath your roof, which is achieved by letting the ridge and hip tiles hover over the roof (instead of cementing them like they used to do) and putting a perforated grate at the bottom just above the gutters instead of boarding it up.

Please, roast it a bit so I can work on improving it. Thanks.
Windows just localizes how it shown on Explorer (and have API to get localized name), so real path is still C:\Users\user\Documents . macOS does the same thing by the way as you wrote. I don't think it's a problem.

Only XDG based systems use real /home/user/ドキュメント (in Japanese) directory . This is annoying. Please localize it well as Win/mac does.
I do know what you mean. Everything's designed to not get damaged and not cause anyone to get sued these days. Victorian buildings and vehicles on the other hand, just seem to look gorgeous by default.

So I guess we know which SEC commissioner is a crypto-bagholder then.

But both sides can easily be wrong. You don't need to draw false equivalences to condemn two sets of people at once.

Why make the jump directly to central economic planning? I mean what it sounds like you're saying is communism is when the government buys things? So not a big fan of like, roads?

Are you arguing in favor for no government regulations whatsoever? Are you arguing for cartel state?
You might not like this answer, but I was once in the place you are now. The only thing that will change the situation for the better is to invest in yourself and learn new skills. The problem is motivation and time. I know how discouraging it is to come home exhausted from the job you hate, eat a quick dinner, and hit the O'Reilly and Addison-Wesley books to learn that new programming language. But eventually it will pay off.

But the micro USB connector is trash, so it’s no surprise they didn’t use it.
Right, it seems in late 2022 anyway, there were actually more hires than layoffs.

None of the companies announcing layoffs appear to be struggling financially, in fact the opposite in many case.

So this does have the look of a co-ordinated attempt to reign in wages, albeit very indirectly, and most likely coming from the Fed who have pretty much directly stated this is policy.

Obviously the high wages in tech are an upward drag on all other wages, so it's logical to focus on this area.
The XML spec is 25 years old today
A) This is very cool, and I’m sorely tempted to get one.

B) I think the disclaimer on the product page that it isn’t compatible with the framework should be larger and more prominent. I feel like one sentence at the end of the product description might not be enough warning.
I'd much rather have it this way than how it was before. Sure, there are headaches, but not more than in the thirty-adapter-bag before times, and now if you get a nice cable that supports thunderbolt/usb3.14159/etc. it really can do everything.
Sensationalist headline.

According to layoffs.fyi, 2022+ytd 2023 is <260k. That’s 20k a month tops, 2 orders of magnitude off.

The cost is all the money paid to validators, which is currently less than the revenue the network receives. This is on the ultrasound money website and also token terminal (and a few other places)

The cost of running the validators is irrelevant to Ethereum (though it is tiny), it'd be like saying you have to calculate employees lifestyle costs to figure out the "real" cost to a company. The cost is the wages you pay the employees (the rewards given to validators) not how much the validators spend.
This is wrong. The census counts everyone, and while it's not perfectly accurate they also have methods for mitigating that, combining in-person surveys and sampling methods.
Who came up with this list?!?

Lots of nices ones that I have gladly tasted, while others make me willing to try them out.
Conventionally, yes.. but there's no reason the IRS has to use this alone to identify me. Conceivably, it would be very easy to check a box on my W-9 and have a unique yearly "Tax ID" generated and placed on my W-2. Then I can file using that unique number and the imputed need of the highest security ever can just evaporate.
No longer relevant, wtf?

It’s just that not much improvement can be done in single thread performance anymore and it is much more easier to design and market “n times as many cores” then “we bumped single threaded performance by 0.2%”. Mind you, almost every single application you have will ultimately depend on single threaded performance, relatively few problems can even theoretically make use of multiple cores, let alone are programmed to do so. Sure, multiple single-threaded process will like more available cores, but it is more limited on mobile devices, where few very fast cores and more slower ones are the norm.
What's the incentive to invent any new goods if you can't profit off of them?
Yeah so the ultimate source of the problem seems to be the basis step up, not any of the rest. So why isn't that identified as the source of the problem?

I suppose one thing nobody has mentioned is that deferral can also help you wait for a year when the rate of the top tax bracket is lowered? Maybe that's a significant component too?
I still like the idea of 7" tablet, but limited to reading comics/books, because doing that on phone isn't particularly comfortable.

For browsing, watching movie, typing etc, obviously I prefer 11".

Which means for travelling, I need to carry at least 4 devices: a phone, a 7" tablet, a 11" tablet, and laptop. Ouch :/
OP is misguided. The social crisis is the inflation that followed far too much quantitative easing and then government spending. It's unfortunate the fed's tools are so blunt, but their approach to tackling the inflation inevitably comes in the form of layoffs. These layoffs are collateral in the fight against inflation. It will pass.
It's like those people think there are layoff cooties or something, as if it's a virus that will transfer to their company. It's just a big shakeup of talent finding a new home.
I should add more examples yeah good idea

That's an innovative idea, I like it! Was it straightforward to set up automated notifications for the other services? Did you encounter any challenges or problems along the way?
Yes. As (I tihnk it was you) said in a sibling comment, supply expansion/contraction has a very significant meaning for a commodity though and that's really what happens with crypto. It's a bit frustrating to me the way in which the crypto community reuses various "tradfi" concepts but with slightly incorrect terminology etc.
The whole point of increasing interest rates is to force high unemployment and stop workers from negotiating better wages. Why would government suddenly intervene in its own policy?
I really hope you make some money with this somehow. It's funny.
Powell is on record saying unemployment rate is too low for inflation to come down so no don't expect gov intervention.
There is low unemployment because huge numbers of people have left the workforce due to health issues (long covid etc). This is not cyclical.
