I agree “free speech” is used to justify the spreading of hate but it’s completely absurd to blame teenagers feelings on what you’re describing when none of that exists on mainstream social networks and only terminally online people get deep enough to see anything resembling it anyway.

It’s for more insidious, it’s just the fact of everyone portraying far more beautiful, interesting and successful lives than them and the surfacing of validation and attention to a like number. There has always been a hierarchy in kids friend groups it’s just now we literally know it down to a number and that can’t feel good.

Just don’t believe that kids are as engaged with social media hate speech and misinformation as you think they are, sounds a lot more like too-online millennial problems tbh.
40% of software engineers only want remote work. 99% of software engineers want a salary of at least $200k/year. Credit for a coworking place in case they get bored WFH too much. Credit for home internet. Credit for ordering Uber Food because they don't get free office food anymore. Ideally, the company also sends someone to their home office to clean it and to wash the laundry. Also, work should only be 4 days/week. Work should start at 10:30AM, then standup at 11am, then check email, 12PM is for Yoga/workout time, then lunch at 1pm. Finally, end work at 5 pm. Company should care about BLM. Company should care about environment. Let's also make a union for tech workers to negotiate with company.

Having worked in tech (Silicon Valley) for 10+ years, I've never seen a group of people who are as entitled as software engineers here.
Yes. Whereas in a traditional setup you'd have an "OS" running an "executable", the hypervisor-unikernel setup the unikernel plays the role of the executable. This indicates that something is very wrong with the OS APIs that this is considered the best way to arrange the desired isolation level!
There's that whole issue of the kernel.
I can understand that it's numerically simpler to start at 0h00 but... don't we miss something related to the sun ????

It seem to me that the "best" reference point would be "mid-day" (at 12:00), when the sun is perpendicular to the planet. It can be easily "guessed" and synced I think... like it has been for millenaries before the clocks

So I guess that instead of 0h00:00-24h39:35 I would prefer -Oh:20:17 to 24:19:18 (centered on 12:00). Or we can just decorrelate "absolute time" (in h/m/s) and "time of day" (in %) where mi-day is 50% (actual duration in H/M/S to be depending on the planet) and mid-year is 50% of the actual rotation around the sun...
Out of curiosity, what makes the second monitor "effectively useless"?
Same, but I enjoy when someone else has done the software part for me :)
RedoxOS is the biggest and designed for desktop.

This might be a “problem” for people who like arbitrary lines to define their lives. Keeping most of Europe on one time zone lets people from different neighbouring and culturally close countries work together without needing to think about time zones.
Don't you think that somebody who invests their time and their mental/intellectual energy into creating and operating fraud schemes isn't somewhat smart. Every big time scammer/fraudster/thief can probably be a successful entrepreneur.

Of course I do. I only use electrical cables approved by the government regulatory agency. I won't even allow a Chinese import non-approved charger to be plugged into my house.

And when a grey-market phone that we bought came with a non-original charger, I pressured the seller into providing an original charger. He complied.

With OpenArena you have that some maps still look really nice in 2023 if you set all settings to the highest settings, which any modern GPU can easily handle. Some maps are just plain super cool. So I mean some maps can give you an experience that the best commercial titles can't match right now. Urban Terror is probably similar in that it has been developed more and more over the years and has received better maps and features.

You couldn't quite do that, because C++ has compound operators, and they can of course be overloaded, so:

foo[bar] += baz;

... needs to provide operator+= with a mutable reference to foo[bar], and a maybe immutable reference to baz.
At least a dozen. But I charge using 1.5 or 2 amp chargers that came with the devices that I own, I have not needed fast charging yet. I probably don't have any cables capable of 10+ watts.

For the kids I teach this is a reality. Was asked this week what types of engineering jobs I thought wouldn't be automated.
I don't understand what this sign is supposed to mean, can you give some deeper context?
Misleading headline. This affects many apps and is much broader.

In fact, this line from the article is far more serious: “Apple, for instance, will also need to contend with a reported requirement to allow side-loading of apps outside of its App Store, something it's spent years fighting internationally”.

> they'll "open up" without the E2EE aspect and basically enable a "compatibility" mode

Isn't that exactly what the Messages app does now? SMS is that compatibility mode.
> One possible reason, suggested by Taylor Lorenz, is that between climate change, inequality, precarity, and Covid, the world is just a much worse place than it was in 2011. But as I pointed out in a post last week, most of these things (except for Covid, obviously) were looking worse a decade ago:

Sorry but no. I was there ten years ago and climate change was much less clear for the average person than now.

In my country the inequalities and precarity were also less worse (I don't know for the US though)

I'm not downplaying social media and phones, they have a big responsability too
Synthetic Data-sets and XAI as the key to allow safe Defence sector use of AI
While Twitter brings out the anger and abuse, I think Reddit is more insidious, with heavy-handed moderation by a tiny number of all-powerful activist-moderators, simply erasing entire points of view from existence, giving users a rather distored view of the world.
> Prime numbers have no non-trivial divisors. So more fractions get handled by the general case, the case of infinitely repeated digits.

I don’t understand what you mean by special cases and general cases.

R\Q is dense in R so most numbers can’t be written as repeating digits at all whatever the base you are using and in every bases all numbers which have a finite representation also have a repeating one by subtracting 1 to the last digit and adding an infinity of the biggest available digit after (decimal representations are not unique).

Generally you want more divisors for your base. The more divisors you have the nicer the fractional part is likely to look like for common operations.
Hmmm. Isn't quite a lot of these publications taking in a PDF, so their cost of much of this is roughly zero? Except for the eyeballing if the header/footer overlaps anything on the page, in which case you request the author reformats their paper to respect the margins?
It useful when comparing (and only when comparing) pregnant with non pregnant, especially with others criteria (typically, age).

The covariance between pregnancy and cause of death is what you want to seek, the only thing that would make that data unusable is a (very) common cause of death covariant with pregnancy, but unrelated to pregnancies. Like, for some reason, pregnant women would start reckless activities, but this behavior change would not be caused by pregnancy, either for physical or social reason.
How so? If Apple chose to distribute GNU cat, they'd need to release any modifications to cat under the GPL but the license's vitality would not "infect" the rest of OSX.

I can understand your company's perspective, they need to survive and probably encountered unexpected difficulties. I hope that at least they gave these candidates some amount of money (at least one month's salary).

If I were you, I would indeed start exploring other options on a small scale. Don't actively interview, but talk to friends, make a list of workplaces that would be happy to have you, so that on the day of reckoning, you will be prepared for any scenario.

What you will do as individual won't matter. Every company is big enough to survive without an employee and being the exception you won't change anything in their future behaviour. The ideal case would be if job offers are binding and the company suffers legal consequences in case of revocation, a.k.a a monthly salary for the position.

Next best action is if you organize people for a collective action so that management knows that bad behaviour has consequences. However, such work is ungrateful, likely not to succeed, and even more likely to backfire if communication turns into confrontation. Starting a fight should happen only if you have clearly stated goals, a formulated plan of action, and an exit strategy in case that things don't go according to plan. So, if you do it, as minimum count what leverage you have, what goal you want to achieve, and if the leverage matches the goals.
"ton" is overloaded with three units having the same name, although at least the "metric ton" is often spelled tonne (1 tonne = 1000 kg ≈ 2204 lbs), but that still doesn't do enough to disambiguate it in speech. In written texts, it can be difficult to impossible to know whether "ton" refers to the American unit (2000 lbs ≈ 907 kg) or the British unit (2240 lbs ≈ 1016 kg).
Just wait until you accidentaly hash your key struct invisible padding between data members (that are not there on you arch, because different alignment), and get irreproducible heisenbugs.

It's fascinating how such trivial differences make such a big change to the result. It seems ChatGPT is tuned to be very sensitive to the views of critics, which is I suppose exactly what you'd expect given the way California corporations are hyper sensitive to critics on social media.

I don't know about you, but I can't eat code. That said, some people don't care about outside contributions or reuse, so I guess I find the pro-GPL partisanship more than a little misguided. Some people just have different goals, and that doesn't make them better or worse, just different.

Some utils are faster already, and they are working on cp and mv progress bars.
From the fosdem 2023 presentation:
https://sylvestre.ledru.info/presentations/coreutils-fosdem-...

==
Example #1:

$ hyperfine -r 10 \
"target/release/coreutils sort -R shakespeare.txt > shakespeare.txt.rand; \
target/release/coreutils sort shakespeare.txt.rand > /dev/null" \
"sort -R shakespeare.txt > shakespeare.txt.rand; \
sort shakespeare.txt > /dev/null"
é
[...]
Summary
'target/release/coreutils sort -R shakespeare.txt > shakespeare.txt.rand; target/release/coreutils sort shakespeare.txt.rand > /dev/null' ran
4.63 ± 0.19 times faster than 'sort -R shakespeare.txt > shakespeare.txt.rand; sort shakespeare.txt > /dev/null'

To be fair, we can be slower too

Example #3:

$ hyperfine "seq 18446744073708551615 18446744073709551615 | factor" \
"./target/release/coreutils seq 18446744073708551615 18446744073709551615| ./target/release/coreutils factor"
[...]
'seq 18446744073708551615 18446744073709551615 | factor' ran
5.08 ± 0.01 times faster than './target/release/coreutils seq 18446744073708551615 18446

Yes. Search for "relativ" in this thread for more details.
Lack of respect, empathy for other people. There's nothing there. That's the world we live in.

People are too afraid of voicing concerns, that's also quite telling. If your company uses a group chat like Slack, Discord, I'd write and share my thoughts on that, there's nothing wrong being human.

I find that most people prefer to avoid conflict and that's why they keep doing stuff like this. For example, recently a friend of mine told me that at his company they made an offer which was accepted to a candidate but have a few other candidates that won't cancel the interview even though nothing will lead from that 100%! Some of us put a lot of time and energy to prepare for an interview, cancel going out with friends or family to attend meetings. This is life for the rest of us. This situations should be exposed, this needs to stop!
Heh Heh Heh

It's almost like being a public company vs being a government run entity isn't the major decider of effectiveness / optimal outcomes for end users.

Instead, it seems to be "is this company (etc) run by self-interested arseholes trying to enrich themselves at the expense of others?"

If it is, then the structure isn't going to matter. End users are going to have a bad time, regardless of the PR/bullshit said company puts out to say otherwise.

Likewise, if the company (regardless of structure) is run by clueful people dedicated to actually providing the required service, end users are going to be in a decent position.

Unless of course they get screwed over by above mentioned arsehole types. eg starved of budget if they're a gov org, have activist investors cause trouble if they're a public company
I'm wondering whether you agree with the commenter that the claim about the vehicle in this regard is likely exaggerated.

They really should have been on TAI. I guess it doesn't matter now if we won't get any more leap seconds.
Yes, of course. Over the years I had a mostly positive experience with North American companies - I may be super biased here, but I prefer to work for these companies.
Man imagine being on that development team. I wonder if anyone thought it was a bad requirement at the time and whose job it was to identify that (and was the issue flagged and if not why not). A programmer isn’t an aeronautical engineer but it really says how a whole systems view is necessary.

I work in a field with increased specialization but we build systems and sometimes similar things come up. There are few who see the end to end system for itself.

I imagine rockets and the space shuttle get that level of scrutiny and that books have been written about it.

I'm just throwing ideas around but I thought about it for some time; with background security checks you could create a dating app or shall I see dating environment for upper-class "elite" people to date, something like European aristocracy did back in the day. For example on top of checking their background for criminal past you could also check their ancestry, their monthly income, their wealth etc. or in another words their social status/class. I like to play video games and every time when I think about software ideas I tend to compare them to video games and dating apps remind me of Crusader Kings or something like that.
Your claim is this:

> we could actually pay well if the money wasn't being concentrated in these billionaires

What do loans have to do with that, bearing in mind we agree that the billionaires don't actually have billions in money?
Wow, that's a neat little Easter egg! It's always fun to stumble upon unexpected surprises like this. I wonder if Google has any other hidden gems like this one. As for the Double Asteroid Redirection Test itself, it's fascinating to see how scientists and engineers are working to develop technology to deflect asteroids that could potentially collide with Earth. The potential consequences of such an impact are staggering, so it's reassuring to know that steps are being taken to mitigate this risk.

I believe that is false, as MCAS should (when correctly implemented) only apply at the edge of the flight envelope and those airworthiness requirements are all related to normal regimes. I can't find anything supporting your understanding

Declaring an emergency is, oddly, fairly routine. There are surely dozens each day. (I’ve declared three in a little over 1500 hours of flying piston aircraft.)

When you have an abnormal condition that gives you doubt about the aircraft state and priority ATC handling would be helpful, declare an emergency. It’s as simple as that.

Ask HN: Staying in an Incompetent Engineering Org
We're a start-up with 50 engineers. Business is great. We're the leaders in our niche market and the sales team constantly sign up new deals. We have an actual product that solves a real problem, and our customers love using it.

Engineering and management wise however, it's a total shit show. Our CTO has no previous management experience and no vision of how to build a functioning engineering organization. We grew from 10 engs to 50 in a year in the hopes of adding new products/features quickly, but the new teams had no direction and had to come up with their own way of working. So now the infra is fragmented, each team has its own task management tool and pulls in a different direction, and shipping the simplest feature takes months instead of days. Things like effective 1:1s, personal growth plans and improving dev experience are obviously on no one's mind.
Most engineers and managers are good people and I believe they have good intentions, but no one has a real incentive to rock the boat.

It's frustrating to see the amount of waste and the engineering bar being so low.

My position is a hands-on team lead, reporting to the CTO. I am well respected in the company, but wasn't able to influence the CTO to take significant actions. I occasionally talk to the CEO and the founders, and they don't seem to be very concerned about it. I'm truly baffled by it. It seems it can take years before anyone will question the situation.

I joined early and have good salary and good amount of equity. It would have been easier to leave if I didn't believe in the business long term, but I think it's going to continue doing great.

I'm an engineer at heart and enjoy solving complex problems and being a part of an enthusiast team. It saddens me being in a mediocre organization that doesn't want to improve.
I have no problem finding another job (20 years of experience, good network), but I wonder maybe I should just take a step back and stop worrying so much - let it play itself out and focus more on my personal life.
