Saying that a $1000 SAT prep class is affordable is arguably true but also greatly undersells the case for the SAT. There's never been a time in history with more free, high-quality test prep resources. They're just as easy to come by as TV and video games. The only issue is motivation. And you can't do anything for an unmotivated kid that's socioeconomically fair. You can spend a lot of money to try and motivate them, or spend a lot of money to have others do things for them that they can take credit for, but those are things that only the wealthier can do.

With the SAT, motivated kids are on the most level playing field in the history of civilization. And that's the best you can do without making society much more redistributive, which no one in this college admissions conversation is offering as an option anyway.

Frankly, I think hating on the SAT is either woefully misguided, or a cynical ploy to appear good without being good. And in the case of elite college admissions committees, I lean towards the latter. Am I supposed to believe that the people running these elite institutions can't think of simple stuff like this? They probably thought it all through before announcing anything to us common folk.
Would this somehow work on FreeBSD/OpenBSD? I'm definitely about to start remapping keys, but I haven't researched the tooling there. So far, I assume the underlying lower level mechanisms are the same (at least for X). Does anybody know whether this would compile and work on FreeBSD & OpenBSD?
The reason that this has come up again was a little more complex. It wasn't resume padding, and it wasn't writing in an alternative language.

It was about deprecating and then removing long standing Unix command names, with histories back at least as far as the middle/early 1980s, simply because they aren't now in the Single Unix Specification.

They were in the SVID.

Challenges and Solutions in Productionalizing AI Agents
Well nevermind the unknown unknowns. There are even known unknowns, like quantum gravity. Like yeah it's fun to speculate what will happen billions of years from now, but with many known gaps in physical theories, it's quite possible or even likely that our current prediction will have to undergo significant revision.
Probably a good thing as from my understanding there is an uncertainty whether a version of CSGO will exist. For example there are some old patch versions available from circa ~2013 which are still playable.

Not sure if that will be possible after the move to CS2. You would think so, but at the very least, "Kisak-Strike: Gentoo Offensive" will exist.
Thanks! I’m out of invites already but I’ll send you a new one very soon.
> I am easy to verify. If you know who I am an talked to previous employers

Wasn’t parent complaining about being verified, because he assumes that implies he’s lying? If your problem with the process is whether your word is believed without verification, or verified, then what’s the difference between a code test in an interview and talking to a previous employer? (BTW there’s a lot of reasons I might prefer the code test to having people discuss me, even when I have a good reputation. You can’t control what people say or think about you.)

> the hiring process has me do some dance

You’re upset by having to do a little bit of the thing that you want the job doing? I have to audition if I want to dance or act or play music. Why shouldn’t we audition to write code, or do anything? If you walk into an interview expecting to demonstrate your skills on the spot, which is what interviews are for and always have been, then it’s no surprise and you’ll be prepared. I’ve watched people get upset in interviews because they were asked technical questions and expected their 20 years of experience or whatever should somehow exempt them from talking about code. That attitude is a huge red flag TBH, and I’ve seen people get rejected for it.

BTW something to keep in mind is that a ton of people complain about interviews that don’t involve coding. Many would-be programmers are quite frustrated by the focus on soft-skills or experience, and very much prefer to be judged strictly on coding skills.
This works on the Raspberry Pi Zero, and the Raspberry Pi 4. I'm not sure about the Zero 2, but I know the other models lack hardware support for the feature.

You can buy a cool little PCB that attaches to the Zero and gives it a male USB-A port, turning it into a chunky flash drive or whatever. (They're sometimes referred to as a "BadUSB".)
Did I miss something or is there no Ubuntu or Debian installer?

I certainly know how to download a file and add it to my path (or put it in my personal bin directory) but sure would be nice to have a super simple installer.

LOL - please do not make a snap or whatever the hell the "cool kids" use. I certainly wouldn't want to advocate continued use of that pattern for utility functions.
> It always seemed strange that there wasn’t any central database of binary parsers that everyone could contribute to.

Fully agree on the need for such a database. The problem is that it's been tried, but lacked traction. The latest one I've seen is Kaitai format files[1], that can be used in visualizers or to auto-generate parsers.

They actually survey their subscribers/readers regularly to compile and/or update a consensus of where the various news organizations they use should be placed on their left/right/center classifications.
Even in 2007, Chris Siebennmann wasn't a junior system administrator. (-:
You are implicitly assuming that there's some finite amount of work that could make every such person "dateable without deception". While it may or may not be true in individual case, as a general statement it sounds to me more like "well, it's _your_ fault because you didn't work on yourself enough, so you deserve to be lonely".

And yet, Lara Croft wasn't your love interest, Lara Croft is you. She's your avatar under your control, risking your life and limb, in a fantasy setting. So that seems like a powerful dose of unreality to gamer boys, who get immersed in the world and personally identify with the heroine.

Surely there have been incremental instances of this before and after Tomb Raider was released, so choose your profile photo, build your avvie, and have at it.
But what about clients that aren't browsers?
What the Brain Sees
Hi everyone,

I am a student of Computer Engineering, currently based in Istanbul and looking for software engineering opportunities. I have a strong background in front-end web development, database design, and have demonstrated my proficiency in HTML/CSS and UI development in previous roles.

I have experience as a Front-End Engineer at Oslo Philanthropic Exchange, where I maintained an optimized front-end application using Angular and HTML/CSS, and as a Web Developer at Brieferr, where I developed an intuitive, responsive front-end ReactJS app.

In addition to my technical skills, I have also been recognized for my communication skills and my ability to provide constructive feedback. I am eager to bring my skills and passion for web development to a new project and learn from the experiences that come my way.

Location: Istanbul/Turkey
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: Yes
Technologies: Javascript, ReactJS, Angular, CSS, HTML, Node.js, Git

Going to toot my own horn a little bit here. I used this capability on this work project: https://github.com/nhsx/il-magic-scanner (long story short: use a pi camera to OCR ID info off a phone screen, then pretend to be a keyboard and "type" it into an attached computer). There's a spun-off standalone daemon at https://github.com/nhsx/il-keebd which handles the "pretend to be a keyboard" bit. It listens on a local socket for text, converts it to scancodes, and squirts them up to the usb host.

The keymap isn't complete by any means, but it's got enough there to be interesting.

Duh. Twitter is obviously hurting for cash. Blue subscribers are paying them, almost literally for the privilege of doing whatever they want - no incentive to ban/suspend them.

Also, there are no moderators anymore.
Very likely. I asked it about a programming language I work on (which it doesn't know the first thing about) and it hallucinates features based on its name, sometimes accurately. "CollegeAI" has some obvious potential use cases.
That's also my experience. People releasing their tools on obscure forums, usually without source code and no version control. Almost enire communities that haven't heard of GitHub. Though usually the tools work in wine... but are next to useless. GUI only and very clumsy to use. So many clicks for each single file to extract, no batch operations, no command line interface. A big WTF. How can you do any modding with those tools?

Three things:

(1) In a fully automatized economy, owning a link in the last mile of food delivery is valuable.

(2) You could make a USP out of "our robots are clean: best hyghienic condotions for your pizza." This works until some journalist finds leaked machine oil in your tomato cake.

(3) The wisdom of the ages speaks of being ten times better. The design goal for the iPhone was to be ten times better, than other smart phones of that era. Not just better. Ten times better. I fail to see how current pizza delivery can be improved ten times. Maybe it can. But it's pretty good already.

I think many people are used to poor working conditions and don't realize how bad it is. The company where I work has a token interest in ergonomics, so the desks are somewhat height adjustable (as in they're not strictly impossible to adjust, but it's not very practical – but since we don't do hot-desking it's fine enough). They provide office chairs which, while not great, offer the usual adjustments. If you have special needs, say you're too tall and the desk doesn't go high enough, they'll find ways to accommodate you.

In my specific office ("IT"), we have somewhat better conditions, with displays that can actually be set at the correct level, etc. Still, many people will just spend their days hunched over their laptops ignoring the screen in front of them, sit in chairs set comically low or high, etc.

> Researchers collected tweets promoting hate from 100 Twitter Blue subscribers. The tweets were reported to the platform using Twitter’s own tools for flagging hateful conduct. Four days after reporting the tweets, researchers found that Twitter had failed to act on 99% of the posts and 100% of the accounts remained active. In the one instance that Twitter removed a hateful tweet, the account from which it was tweeted remains active.

Translation: Some "researchers" flagged a bunch of tweets they didn't like and then got mad when the accounts weren't bad 4 days later.

EDIT: Wow the votes on this comment are going "up and down more than an Essex birds underpants" as the BOFH would say. Seems like some people are taking umbridge with my summary.
I assume they paid for Blue as transaction to freely tweet hate. Twitter's got its hands tied of its own volition.
I'm not convinced that people who are not paying Redhat for RHEL Workstation support count as customers on this question.

But this is still an odd statement. Previous customers who very much relied on LibreOffice might move to some other platform or at least some other support service. Thus they would no longer be Redhat customers and Redhat would still be loyal to their customers.

I suspect the number of RHEL Workstation customers to be a relatively small part of Redhat's customer base. And those that depend on LO support to be even smaller. I don't expect this to affect RH's bottom line in any negative way.
I usually uninstall libreoffice and install the up to date flatpak anyway. This seems like the smart thing to do.
Ask HN: Is anyone else experiencing ChatGPT loops?

Another way of getting news is an old fashioned newspaper. Being able to leaf through it lets you see headlines and quickly scan an article to see if it's interesting compared to clicking around on the web. I actually find it a fairly nice way to see lots of different things.

There are many things in the newspaper that are interesting to read that I likely wouldn't have clicked on if I saw the title in some news feed.
It’s kind of crazy how groupthink all of the blue checkmarks are, it’s like they’re all the same right-wing bot. Hundreds of them complaining day in and day out about trans people and CRT. Each coming to Elon’s defense after every stupid move he makes, saying Musk is for “free speech” every time he censors something. I wonder how many are actually just his sock puppets?
CIA notoriously overestimated the USSR by assuming competence within (what seemed to them) reasonable bounds. Bananas were luxury items and this sad thing was the most popular ice cream, fondly remembered to this day, because there was nothing better: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/25/Plombir_...

In some select border regions that could pick up foreign TV channels (Karelia and Estonia), authorities told that the grocery stores shown in commercials were a CIA psyop. Soviet citizens up to to the highest levels of party elite were deeply shaken when they could finally travel and experience them in person: https://www.chron.com/neighborhood/bayarea/news/article/When...

Imagine coming from that pathetic ice cream and suddenly seeing huge shelves full of everything you can imagine, and not only ice cream, but all other categories too. That was a tremendous cultural shock to anyone who had grown up in the USSR, beyond wildest imagination.

The idea that US and USSR were equals or even anything near it is totally absurd. You can see the same tradition continue in how Russia's potential in Ukraine was ridiculously overestimated, and how mundane things like toilet bowls and washing machines are deemed by Russian soldiers and officers as worthy of looting.
Looks like they’ll need to find a new scapegoat when they can’t blame remote work for their mismanagement any longer.
I do not have ADHD or any other learning impairment that I am aware though I ready slowly unless under intense pressure. Statistically they tell me I am in the top 2% if I have an IQ around 148. I performed poorly in school and never developed a passion for instructional learning until I became a father, so my grades were frequently low. Now I love reading educational material and writing.
> technical challenges, such as keeping melting cheese from sliding off while the pizzas baked in moving trucks.

Wouldn't the answer just be to always keep the Gs of a turn under a certain value?

I'd have assumed that they would have tried to do all of this manually before automating it, so wouldn't that issue be apparent before even designing a robot?

A good neapolitan pizza can cook in only a couple of minutes, so they could have also just done the cooking step at the destination. Or maybe less sauce, or less cheese.

I wouldn't say they're valued, the compensation is (with some nuance) based on a work-unit/fee-code which is the same for all of us. The academic component goes up for relevant physicians like it does for any professor-type role.

Doctors work longer mostly because you can't fire them unless they're negligent/incompetent (for various reasons including that most are self-employed/contractors either individually or as a group).

The only value the hospital places on seniority is that you know the local practice patterns so there's less of a learning curve as compared to someone ewer.

We have continuing medical education requirements but the reality is most of medicine is designed to be easy and guideline based. Weird and wonderful stuff benefits from experience.

> Why is an older doctor so much more valuable than an older developer?

A 60 year old surgeon is still taking out an appendix, just with newer tools than when they were 30, for the same amount of money as a newer one. I would imagine an older developer would want to be more well-compensated and have career growth focusing on things like architecture or having a team but I defer to practicing developers for their input on why they're not valued.

That's a contradiction right there. If experience is important, the "resource" can't do as they are told. If they can, experience is not important.

If you don't have the answers, you are clearly unfit to manage "resources". If you want blind followers, you better have all the answers.
