My team does 0 days in and 5 days WFH and it works really poorly. Terrible communication and extreme siloization.
As a woman who has been through the ups and downs of dating, I understand how easy it is to fall into the trap of making mistakes. It could be due to a lack of experience, fear of being alone, or societal pressure to be in a relationship. Whatever the reason, it's important to recognize and avoid these common mistakes to have a successful dating experience. In this article, we will explore five common mistakes women make when dating and provide tips on how to avoid them.
Yeah, employment in the US is at-will, meaning employees can be dismissed at any time without cause, and no advanced notice is required.
To a point. People who move around too much will not get the job if there's a comparable candidate that has stayed around longer at previous jobs.
Well yes but actually no. I don't think teams necessarily have to be full stack because it depends on the domain / modules around which the team is organized
What does headless means in software?
I agree with you, but the product != Infrastructure. I don't want to overpay my taxes, drive one type of car, that refuels only at a particular fuel station, and it be a judge on when and where my car can drive, restrict me from visiting other states.
Are they trying to maximize their income in the next year or in their lifetime?

I would honestly advice them to change their mindset from trying to maximize income, to maximizing learning. So instead of finding a job that pays a lot, find a job where you learn a lot. Over the long term you will earn more if you are highly skilled.
Two things:

1. Lots of drinks come in metal cans with BPA lining on the inside.

2. You can absolutely be reasonably healthy and drink some of these drinks, including the variants that are not sugar-free. I don’t think most people try to be perfectionistically healthy. But I think PFAs are not anywhere closer “reasonably healthy” to consume.
Don't most of them have llama as their origin/basis? Which ones are independent completely?

> After a decade of use the tech hasn't found

an oft said criticism that ignores a lot.....

standards within the crypto ecosystem follow a proposal and ratification process that takes years, this is a highly active area and highly collaborative

there are people that have the exact same information as you that said "I'll contribute" instead of "I'll find reasons to reinforce my disdain"

those standards get ratified and the crypto ecosystem begins catering to additional industries and additional people

this chronology is very easy to follow
Yeah, I assumed most such tools do. Is that not the case?

(Amusingly, though, my own "how to keep track of birthdays" solution predates the addition of such fields to address books. When I learned your birthday, I would just put it in my (paper!) calendar, and transfer it annually.

Then when digital calendars happened, I just entered them there. To this day I have a calendar called "Annual Dates" that is comprised entirely of birthdays and other milestones worth keeping up with. Consequently and ironically, I don't use the in-address-book fields. Still.)
A quick no is almost always better than a slow maybe
If you view $1000 iPhones and $200 Androids as the same market, yes. If you view them as different markets because no one’s picking between the two, Apple has 75% market share in premium phones and Android has 100% market share (I do not consider Jio flip phones as a real competitor) in non premium phones
Finance is a large field with a lot of different personalities and cultures. Paying top dollar for devs is inversely correlated with getting shouted at by coked up lunatics, although there are exceptions…
I was with her for the vast majority of that time. You may be right - I’m not going to be that anal about my partner’s bathroom habits - but I never saw anything to suggest otherwise.
I think this culture has changed a hell of a lot. When I started there were eating contests on the floor and someone got fired for being sexually harassed. People would break keyboards and bring water pistols onto the floor, and there would be free dinner each night for anyone willing to listen to salespeople.

Nowadays, it's quite different. Gifts have to be logged so people don't do it much anymore, metoo happened, and I can't really imagine another burger eating contest, even though that last one is fairly tame.
For people actually working in FinTech today, what does a day-to-day workday look like? What types of problems does your code solve?
Except it’s not pinned to your desktop.
I thought part of the reason people use forth is because they don't need or want the dependencies and complexity of a big ecosystem or lots of tooling.
The least relevant or interesting part of this question is what tech to focus on, as you can learn anything enough to be helpful in a few weeks.

The second least relevant part of this question is how geopolitics and current "layoffs" factor into this, as those are largely a product of bad management, and extremely isolated. They won't matter in 6 months, let alone 10 years.

If you are a smart and driven person, then software development is not going to be the best way to maximize your income. Get out of software and into finance, and/or get an advanced degree (MBA or law) from a prestigious university (M7 or T14). Ideally combine finance with an advanced degree, and work at an investment banking firm.

You won't be able to compete with the best individual contributors in software if you only care about cash, and in a hard(er) science field that becomes obvious relatively quickly. In finance, caring about cash is the passion, so that drive to make money will serve you better there.
1) I think 10yrs is too short of a timeframe if you want to maximize your income

On a 10yr timeframe the decisions you make will be very different than 20yrs. For 10yrs, your best bet is probably finding the highest paying Senior/Staff role you can then staying there. For 20yrs, even if it takes you 15yrs to become a Director you will probably earn more than your high paying IC role.

20yrs gives you time for things to compound (Skills, network, etc). 10yrs does not really afford you the same time. You'll probably be jumping around jobs to maximize short-term TC instead of building and compounding on long term things.

2) Considering you are talking about tech stacks, I don't think you have a good framework for thinking about this question

What dictates compensation? Generally the scope and responsibility of your role. Nothing to do with tech stacks unless you have an incredibly niche skillset.

I don't think this question is that interesting. Play long term games and build long term skills. On a long enough timescale things like tech stacks are effectively fads. Relationships with other people and skills like being able to lead people are always going to be valuable.
> but I have made many other lifestyle changes which could be having an impact on that.

Could you share?
Both of them are claiming to be sciences otherwise they wouldn't be under the economic science and computer science umbrellas.
That looks cool! Seems like I have a new toy to explore!
Depends on who you ask of course.

The IC consists of:

-16 domestic partners (CIA, FBI, US Army, US Navy, NSA etc...),

-Five Eyes (Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, US),

-NATO,

-Whatever non-NATO intelligence service we are working with internationally as a coalition partner, or Major non-Nato Ally (MNNA) Singapore is a great example here.

So your question is better asked: Which civilians does the IC track, for what period of time, based on what requirement, using what tools?

"Dragnet" surveillance is kind of a misnomer. If data is created and stored somewhere, even on a private server in your basement, then the IC might have an interest in knowing what and where that data is. This exists in the form of the Warrants and National Security Letter process, or many other processes wherein private data becomes public via national security interest. However, until the IC actually begins investigating and (depending on jurisdiction) has an analyst look at that information for a specific intelligence requirement - it isn't technically "collected" - which is important legally but doesn't make a difference to most people.

The IC at it's most effective, using international treaties and a combination of Title 50 and Title 10 authorities, could find anyone, anywhere, anytime in the world and then could arrest/capture that person without firing a shot within lets say a week. That's the service guarantee that the IC provides to presidents and world leaders. However those ops cost MILLIONS to do and with hundreds of people. That kind of effort is for someone who is legitimately an imminent mortal threat to someone from the above coalition.

7.999M of the 8 Billion world citizens are so uninteresting in this context that they are not worth the time of a GS-13 analyst or case officer/agent making $120k/yr.

Any information/data you produce that is stored somewhere, or recoverable can be "collected" should you be involved in something that the Five Eyes determines is a threat.

So it's much like Capitalism: in the background and present always, able to do productive, positive things and operate effectively and efficiently BUT over the long run, generally is there to maintain power structures that exist, keeping adversarial organizations in a box on behalf of the ruling elite.

So for most citizens the "spying" is neutral and invisible and keeps the world running within the law/power structure as it is built - which, depending on which side you're on can be great or terrifying. As with anything that powerful though, has a tendency to crush and run over a lot of things unintentionally too.

So if your perspective is that the EXISTENCE of such an organization is itself a threat then you'd rank it 10/10

If you're wondering what the chances of being directly and individually oppressed by "spying" from the IC, I'd rank it 0/10 unless you're an international criminal of some sort.

The more interesting question to me is: What are lawmakers and elected officials asking the IC to do?
The Netherlands looks at lot like the U.S. 30 years ago, and now it’s the cycling Mecca of the world.

That isn’t to argue that the U.S. can pull off the same trick in the same manner, but it clearly demonstrates that is possible to achieve in a single generation. A big part to achieving that change was simply changing laws to make it possible, and replacing car infrastructure with shared car and cycle infrastructure as part of the normal infrastructure replacement process.

In the U.S. today, it’s almost impossible to build anything except suburbs of single family home due to zoning laws. So a good first step for the U.S. would simply be changing zoning laws to make it possible to even build dense urban areas with transit, rather than only urban sprawl.
For me, it's a lot faster than PhotoShop. Could it be a Mac vs Windows thing?
It's totally inactionable though. "Build interesting things", "meet great people". It sounds nice but it's completely hollow. Not to mention "what looks good on a CV" is actually a really important thing to consider.

I agree with the “lesson has been learned” justification of not having any penalty added. At this point, it wouldn’t really add much.

Penalties are supposed to stop people from violating the law. Getting your face and firm known across the world seems to be sufficient deterrent to future offenders because the “oops I didn’t know” defense won’t apply a second time.

This definitely isn't new. I had an apartment in Bushwick through the 2000s, and due to construction in the surrounding area, the rats on our block and occasionally in our building were huge and relentless.

Then my neighbor moved in. She was a pet photographer by trade, but also cared for all the neighborhood cats as well as all the area bodega cats - making sure they all had their shots and were spayed / neutered. She also traps around the city when needed. We had 4 street cats that just hung out on our block because she would leave food for them. I would occasionally feed her own three cats and whatever stray she had locked in the bathroom when she had to go out of town.

That's how I got my cantankerous orange tabby. He was abandoned on the streets of Bushwick and was fortunate for my neighbor. He hates everyone but my wife and I, and tolerates our young son. But he sleeps with us every night and rubs on our feet when he needs attention. There's no way he would have made it this far (13 years and counting) without my neighbor bringing him in as a kitten.

I was hoping to see her show up in the article.
Just as well off financially, obviously.
You can always lower your price back to market. Pricing yourself out means you've spent the last N years getting paid top dollar. I'll take it.

> the real issue is that it mandates having backdoors

I'm seeing this response in many replies to mine and I feel like this is because people don't understand how laws like this actually work. Especially because people in the US like to apply their mistrust of LE to European LE.

The Netherlands already has a law in place allowing police to hack citizens in case of specific crimes, comparable to this law in France. This does not require companies to create back doors, but allows LE to remotely enter devices of suspects if deemed necessary. This needs to be confirmed by a judge and therefore isn't applied very often, only in specific cases where there's no other option.

Fighting cyber crime without these laws becomes nearly impossible, because often a perpetrator is very good at covering their tracks and offensive hacking is a necessity to find a perpetrator. HN then has the tendency to say "for now", implying that this will soon be applied to petty thieves and the general populace, but this law doesn't allow that, has many safeguards and therefore that doesn't happen.
I find psychology had deeper insight when it was _less_ hard-sciency.

A lot of social sciences seem to have "math-envy", and try to fit a subject to a tool that is not well suited for it.

If I read some early literature (not Freud though, he's a charlatan), I often find deep insight, and observations that get to the heart of some issue in a way that is only half science and half art, but revealing some knowledge in a way art can as well.

Current psychology is quite different, mostly dry. In summary, my issue is not lack of rigor, but too much rigor and lack of deep insight.
Best way to make money in tech is to go your own way or leave tech all together. I know being able to afford rent and a new iphone every couple of months sound tempting but what one needs is plenty of money to own a home and start a family. Those are things that only the rich afford these days - a rare sight among tech workers.
Huh? Tried that. Dutch winters are pretty mild, still no big deal.

That being said, I used to live in Moscow before, and did have a daily 1.5h bus-and-metro commute there for a while. Not perfect, and quite anger-inducing because of the "tragedy of commons" situation: this commute would have been 1h long, if not less, if the bus didn't spend time in the traffic jams created by all those nice people in cars. But well, nowadays buses in Moscow have dedicated lanes, and that neighborhood got its own metro line, so it's getting better.

Still not sure what exactly you are implying.
You wrote: The senior folks are sometimes cleaning up messes created by the junior folks.

I have seen just as much of the reverse.
I see 3 options.

1. The senators have no clue.

2. They support monopolies (or at least oligopolies). That's not compatible with US legislation, is it.

3. LLMs are dangerous like atomic weapons and all proliferation needs to be universally banned.

The number is clearly an exaggeration, and it's a bit embarrassing that I have to point that out. One of the few benefits of crypto is that it's difficult to trace (although certainly not impossible except for unique cases like XMR), so obviously nobody has the data to attest what percentage of people definitively have fallen victim to scams. However, what is known for certain is that people lost $14 billion to crypto scams last year (globally), with the average amount lost per person likely much higher than many other types of scams, considering the entire US lost $10 billion to all other types of scams last year, and the number of people in the crypto space is a small fraction of the US population. Keep in mind that the two numbers are globally vs the US alone, but I would presume the majority of the $14 billion lost were from US investors. I found more targeted studies that have numbers like 33% of people in crypto have fallen victim to scams, but I can't find the original study so I've omitted referencing it directly.
There really aren't numerous ways. You statically link, vendor your dependencies and bundle your app, specify version numbers for your .so dependencies, or use symbol versions.

The latter two are the only options that involve any sharing of libraries. And avoiding it isn't just a path of least resistance but one of reliability and reproducibility. If I cannot pin the dependency down to the exact bytes I tested it with, I cannot tell you if you should trust the bits that get mapped and executed on your system.

At the same time, the benefits to shared libraries are really diminishing: https://drewdevault.com/dynlib.

It's not just that it's easier to ship statically linked or bundled apps. It's more reliable and doing the alternative doesn't have many benefits.

The things I listed are also products. I just didn't pick individual examples because for most of them I wasn't alive at the time and so I don't know what the equivalent "first mass produced model that popularised it" would be. For cars it would probably be the Model T, for example. The iPhone was a great product that sold very well, but it was more of an incremental improvement over mobile phones which had been a thing for a while. But I'm also not in the US, so maybe it doesn't seem that groundbreaking because it never was all that popular over here.
You pass that method along with the value, so it's the caller's responsibility. At some point along the call stack there will be a monomorphic function which has to know the actual type it's calling its polymorphic callee with.

> You can seed MD5, SHA-2, and BLAKE2 by tossing bytes in as a prefix. It'll prevent the same attacks and you can give it the same analysis.

I'm curious if you can link to such an analysis. These functions are notoriously much harder to analyze than simple functions like "h(x) = ax+b mod p" which is all you need for the probabilistic guarantee.

But even if you could analyze this, you would just end up with a universal hash function that's way slower than you need, because you didn't pick the right tool for the job.

Debunking the Myth of Dollar Cost Averaging
Unless you want machine-readable responses, or some other very specific need, the benefits of a fine-tuned model aren't really going to be that much better than a prompt that asks for the style you want along with an example or two. It also raises the barrier to entry quite a bit, since the majority of computers that can run the model aren't capable of training on it.

Even if you're using OpenAI's models, gpt-3.5-turbo is going to be much better (cheaper, bigger context window, higher quality) than any of their models that can be fine-tuned.

But if you're able to fine-tune a local model, then a combination of fine-tuning and embedding is probably going to give you better results than embedding alone.

If the ultimate goal is increasing your discretionary income, you can also approach the problem by lowering your rent and living expenses. (Same work, different location.) Maybe even think about working in a country where the currency exchange works in your favor.

And since you have 10 years, you might also want to invest that discretionary income. (A well-diverisified portfolio is pretty low-risk. And with interest rates as high as they are, you can also get some guaranteed/fixed-rate returns that are pretty high.)
