The H1b is the blunt all-purpose-tool of the era, but having more specific policy objectives is more productive.

The murkiness of the current H1b allows anxiety which companies can exploit.

A dual-intent, 5-50 yr green card wait-times, lottery system with underdefined qualification criteria has to be seen as a terribly drafted visa. Replacing with it clearer messaging and more predictable rules (predictable doesn't mean looser) would return a lot of leverage to tech workers. The weird rules of the H1B mean that every I know has violated some under-enforced parts of their H1B at some point. Every once in a while it gets enforced, and someone's life gets uprooted. The 2 month deportation timeline is joke, when it takes 3 months to catch up on leetcode.

The visa doesn't even have to be more permissible. Just a more sensible & clear.

It isn't though. Sensory processing also shows up on the Autism spectrum (famously, even), but also in people who have neither. The latest numbers have upward of 30% of people classed as Highly Sensitive (HSP), and 20% as low sensitivity. Most HSPs self-identify as 'introverts' unless some other label sticks first.

So the dynamic I propose is that an HSP is going to out themselves for any other ways they're neurodivergent. ADHD people getting distracted by every background noise, every smell. Asperger's people hitting their limits and flaming out, and ADHD people hitting their limits and flaming out, (in roughly chronological order).

I suspect we will find the Venn diagram of HSP and adult diagnosis of ADHD/autism is going to be thin compared to child diagnosis (and unfortunately mostly female, because there's still a lot of internalized sexism around well behaved girls). Few have the coping mechanisms to escape notice.
Are you saying there is some speech allowed on tiktok but banned elsewhere?

Outside the US there are a lot of envious people that scream hypocrisy and act anti-US at every opportunity so what you're saying isn't surprising. Americans shouldn't care what "the world" thinks when it comes to trade policy.

Personally I couldn't care less if the US is like or not like China. Xi's regime is very anti-us and any state controlled companies can get bent.

The nerve on some people. They want you to apologize for banning a service controlled by the CCP which is talking about actual war against the US.

The creep of corp Amazon culture accelerated. Twitch was acquired in 2014, but it was still Twitch, and not Amazon, when it came to culture. That's no longer true.

It no longer feels like a special environment. These layoffs really seal the magic being gone, though they would have happened even if Amazon hadn't acquired Twitch.

Sorry to hear this. We have a lot of connections with the high energy physics community, which is why ROOT and Gaudi are even in Spack to begin with. There is an #hep channel on https://slack.spack.io, and we talk to those folks fairly frequently to figure out what we can add to support these codes better.

On `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` specifically: we intentionally inject RPATH-ing compiler wrappers into the build to avoid these types of problems, which are on by default for the ROOT and Gaudi builds. Would be curious to hear where the remaining pain points are.
Yes we can, but what are those problems, what is the cost involved, what are we willing to sacrifice?

There is many other goals that are largely ignored because "climate" is very very popular.

I like the work of Bjorn Lomborg on that front. When we rank the problems and solution climate is not at the top.
I've seen it work in practice plenty of times. It does take a particular sort of dev, though.

ChatGPT 4 input:

> Can you give separate summaries of the Animorphs book series and the film Duel?

The reply:

> Animorphs Book Series Summary: The Animorphs series, written by K.A. Applegate, is a popular young adult science fiction book series spanning 54 books and several companion novels. The story revolves around five teenagers—Jake, Rachel, Tobias, Cassie, and Marco—who are granted the power to morph into any animal they touch by a dying alien named Elfangor. The teens, known as the Animorphs, use their new abilities to battle an evil alien race called the Yeerks, who are secretly invading Earth by taking control of humans' minds. Throughout the series, the Animorphs learn about the complexities of war, friendship, and sacrifice as they try to save humanity from the Yeerk invasion.

> Duel Film Summary: Duel is a 1971 television movie directed by Steven Spielberg and based on the short story by Richard Matheson. The film follows a mild-mannered traveling salesman named David Mann (played by Dennis Weaver), who unwittingly finds himself in a deadly game of cat and mouse on a remote California highway. Mann is pursued by a mysterious and relentless tanker truck driver, who seems determined to kill him for no apparent reason. With escalating tension and suspense, the film delves into themes of fear, paranoia, and the primal fight for survival. Duel is notable for being Spielberg's directorial debut, showcasing his skillful storytelling and unique visual style that would later become hallmarks of his career.

You have to know who is kidnapping you first though. I don't think most people would be able to figure it out in time when a bunch of camouflaged federal police jump out of an unmarked van. You've got maybe a second at best to make the decision, and if you've done nothing wrong the idea some unmarked federal police force you've never seen before is going to snatch you up is probably not even in the realm of your imagination, thus it must be criminal kidnappers.

I think it's an extremely low bar to make sure a person even understands how to program. This isn't reversing a tree, or graph searching.

Fizzbuzz basically just tests you know how to use a conditional, do division/mod, and print to console.

I'd argue someone who cannot do those three things has no business applying for a dev job, regardless of how many times one actually needs to fizzbuzz in 'the real world.'
> When someone is aware of the damage they cause, and then they still continue, what would you call that behavior?

Pretty standard human behaviour, I'd say. Reference points include Exxon, Shell, et al, at any time in the past forty years. The crucial part is that it's possible to be aware at one level and deny the problem thoroughly at another. Please do not tell me I have to prove the existence of the possibility of the psychology of denial? :)

> Because the word "studiously" implies that they are aware of what they are doing.

That is exactly what they are doing. They are constructing themselves as unaware. As Upton Sinclair put it, it's hard to get a man to understand something when his paycheque depends on not understanding it.

> You yourself said that tech workers, or "tech bros" as you so nicely put it, are perceived and portrayed as uncaringly and knowingly destroying peoples life.

I didn't say uncaringly, but yes, for certain values of 'unknowingly', this is the case. Contrived innocence is the order of the day.

One example (there are many): Tech bros in major west coast cities with large homeless populations routinely pass within centimetres of people whose suffering they -- through capitalist competition -- underwrite, whether they want to or not. We have priced whole communities out of their historic neighbourhoods. Evictions are commonplace, and despite the fact that we know they help manufacture unnecessary poverty, they are allowed to persist, in part because we -- the housed professionals -- are the quiet beneficiaries. (See recent HN-trended https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/03/20/matthew-desmon...)

The main psychological tools I see deployed to deal with the so-called "unfortunate" (take a moment to unpack that word) are: aversion, bad faith (in the Sartrean sense,) angry denial (anger is such good anesthetic) and libertarian dogma that falsely localizes the problem either in inevitable facts-of-life or personal failure.

We are now extending that 'read' to include those who are about to be professionally (and perhaps literally) displaced by the GPT revolution.

> If you think that that is a fair assessment of most tech workers motivations, then you are constructing a caricature.

See, again, you managed to construct a caricature of the position of the person telling you that you'd constructed a caricature.

This is impressive. Would suggest introspection.
Also, most europeans tend to settle down, and not move across the continent every few years, so buying instead of renting makes even more sense, since you'll be staying in that house probably for the rest of your life.
In US markets, prices have basically tripled from what they were 7-9 years ago.
Except for the crucial fact that unlike China US law protects US companies from state interference.

The EU for example fines US tech companies left and right and enforced EU data privacy law and US companies pay up or comply. The dispute with China and US tech companies was never about privacy but about censorship (censoring what the state tells you to), there is no such dispute between tiktok and the US gov.
Hmm, you think that's what makes a difference? It might be, though I've gotten different (what I find worse) results on other questions as well.
Norway: Is It the Perfect Economy? (2019)
I was hired in 2020. My structure was

- Year 1: base + high prorated signing bonus + 5% stock vest

- Year 2: base + slightly lower signing bonus + 15% stock vest

- Year 3 and 4 - base + 40% stock vest

If the stock doesn’t move, you should make about the same amount Years 1 through 4 or slightly more.

I run a politics forum and the one rule is no name calling/insulting people (famous or a forum member), groups, ideology etc. It is incredibly civil. It turns out 1) that is the only rule you need to keep civility 2) it makes for a really boring place as most people just want to name call and not actually discuss politics.

It is not necessarily hypocrisy. I haven't paid too much attention, but does the US say China banning Facebook or Google is anti free speech?

If not, then the US is not being hypocritical. Perhaps, double standards or something like that is more of what you were looking for?

China builds roads. If the US builds roads it will become just like China.

I wonder if they will add "chatgpt it" or "gpt it" to the dictionaries
Yeah the time is interesting but it doesn’t directly imply anything about the flow. I’m curious about that. Ie how much new oil/gas etc is being produced by nature each year.

Found this[1] now, which gives a ballpark of 20-80k barrels/y which can vary quite a bit depending on the guesstimates of undiscovered reserves. Since we produce 80-100M barrels/y, we’re drinking from the basin about 1000x the rate that it replenishes. Or slightly worse, because we’re slurping up the yummy and easily accessible parts, whereas formation occurs everywhere. Still, the 1e6 estimate seems orders of magnitude too high (to my surprise as well).

Again, this is only for crude oil, and there are certainly more factors at play.

People are getting around 250 MB/s from an SSD on the PCIe (M.2) on VisionFive 2. Ok, so you'd ideally like 400 MB/s from 1 lane, but it's still 10x better than SD card.

It's probably being limited because the RAM to RAM copy speed isn't much more than that! I get 475 MB/s memcpy() speed for 64 MB copies on my VisionFive 2. The much slower CPU on the AllWinner D1 manages 1100 MB/s n the same code. Somehow the SiFive-based SoCs have never been good on RAM speed -- the HiFive Unleashed and Unmatched were even worse than this.

Hopefully the Horse Creek SoC has some good Intel DDR IP in it.
You're pushing a harmful, cynical and ultimately nihilistic agenda here. I've seen the same line pushed many times since it became 'en vogue' in the 80s but ultimately dating back to an influential Milton Friedman paper published in the early 70s. I reject it but I frankly also find it tedious to argue against it because those pushing it usually remain ideologically (neoliberalism) wedded to it. But if you do actually want to have your thinking challenged, there are many serious essays that have been written to contest the 'maximizing shareholder value' line. One I pulled up just quickly challenges it through Peter Drucker's views on the purpose of business. Quoting that :

> Profit and profitability are absolute requirements. That is why even non-profit corporations must strive mightily for profitability. However, this does not mean that profit is the basic purpose of a business. Profitability really is an essential ingredient by itself which might be better spoken of in terms of an optimal, rather than a maximum size. In support of this thesis, Drucker noted that the primary test of any business is not the maximization of profit, but the achievement of sufficient profit to allow for the risks of the financial activity of the business, and thus to avoid catastrophic loss leading to failure. And we might add, achieve the success which would benefit both the business and society. So profit is necessary, but [not] the purpose of business.

It is not the data collection but where the data is sent and how it is used. You cannot enforce US laws in China but in the US you can.
