(founder here). The interaction between high level language package managers and system binaries or compiled extensions is definitely on our roadmap. For example the ruby net-ssh gem relies on specific versions of openssl being compiled on the machine. Do you think this is particularly difficult in ML?

Is your frustration mostly from needing compile all this non-python stuff across environments?

That probably speaks more to the fact that they are lax with the rule for a reasonably well qualified candidates who they actually may want to hire.

The rule in the first place is probably targeted at the bulk of lower quality candidates to avoid them constantly reapplying
I can agree that "something" is lost. Just not what everyone is saying or thinks it is. I doubt anyone really knows. But agree that full remote is a different way of working and people need to get used to it still.
Not really sure how you distinguish between runtime and something else. It seems to me that you could provision a "shard" as simply as executing in a worker:

wrangler d1 create customer28 --experimental-backend
wrangler d1 execute customer28 --file=schema.sql

Bed covers protect your stuff from thieves and also decrease drag (increase range). They are a smart idea, especially for electric trucks.

A paralyzed government can’t pass required laws. The budget has to be passed every year. That will never happen with supermajority. No new programs, no cuts, just confusing resolutions. The debt ceiling has to be increased occasionally and if you thought recent negotiations were bad, supermajority would be worse.

Thinking about human brains, it seems we operate on an ever-evolving set of symbols, at various levels of abstraction.

Then proceeds to repeat the arguments of one side.

Everyone understands easily how remote is more comfortable for individuals; all the benefits have been repeat times and times providing examples of thousands of individual situation in which being home is better than being in an office. This is example 15768984.

The question that execs are trying to answer is "are we stronger with an in-office team", knowing they will cut themselves from the "ragneses" in the talent market, but looking more attractive to the people who prefer in-office work; or "are we stronger with a distributed team of ragneses", and having other people who prefer presential offices flock to other companies. It looks like the GAFAs (and many other) are choosing the first option and are fine not having access to some remote-only talents. Others are sticking to their remote-first (or remote-only) culture.

Many of the bigger companies seem to go on the same direction; maybe that decision is based on internal data they have gathered showing that office-first teams are more efficient and performant. Or maybe it's based of sheer traditional management backwards reactionary push. If that's the case; we should soon see fully remote companies starting to take the lead in terms of growth, IPO, successful exits etc since they have been able to identify a better collaboration model that yields better results for less costs.

I mean, look at what that kid from WarGames was able to do!
I don't think that's the takeaway at all.

There's a supply problem for women in STEM and our response has been to investigate every potential cause while investing in scholarships and outreach. If we found out that 33% of STEM employers were unwilling to hire women, we'd say, "Aha, that explains the supply problem. Let's fix that." I can't fathom spending tens of thousands of dollars to enter a highly competitve field where a third of employers will rule you out outright (and presumably more will discount you against other candidates).

Even if conservatives aren't interested for other reasons, the presence of a supply problem does not rule out bias. There is evidence of substantial self-reported bias, so there's probably bias.

I was once at a start up where management decided that progress was inadequate. In truth progress was inadequate, but it was a hard science problem so the amount of work done is not necessarily the main factor here. They insisted that everyone work till at least 7pm (the place had a 9am sharp start time so that amounts of a long day with dangerous chemicals and sensitive equipment - this is the equivalent of staying till 9pm for software folks who amble in at ~10:30am). In order to avoid having to stay late themselves, management adopted a rotation whereby one manager would stay late one night a week while the rest took off on time (now early). Someone found a copy of this schedule in the printer, made a few extra copies and posted them around the office which scrapped that policy. Long story short the company was never going to make it anyway.

Post recorded videos are good.

Live streams are better. If I decide to attend a conference remotely I tell it at work and just spend the 2 x 8 hours it takes to watch the streams. Have done it for FOSDEM several times and in recent years technical problems with the streams have been exceptional.

If I plan to look at recordings, it somehow mostly never happens. It's easy to postpone. I would not tell at work I have to watch videos.

> It took a while for Linux to actually be taken seriously outside of home-lab tinkering.

It took a while and big companies like IBM and organizations like the OSDL and FSG (which became the Linux Foundation) pouring many thousands of person hours and millions of dollars into it. The Linux kernel has plenty of independent "amateur" (not paid to do so) contributors but it's also got a lot of paid contributors for who it's their day job.

It's an awesome mix of contributors but I think there's a definite generational shift around the 2.2/2.4 to a much more capable kernel than 2.0 and before. Had Linux not gotten the financial backing it did I don't know that it would be where it is today.
Maybe it's just me but this wording seems weird to me, not sure why exactly:

> World-class Engineering teams use Infield to make dependency maintenance time twice as productive.

Specifically, "to make dependency maintenance time twice as productive." Feel like it ought to say "to cut the time they spend maintaining dependencies in half". I know that's wordier and maybe that's not quite it, but the wording as is feels a bit tortured to me.

Sensitive hands and wrists. Pain and fatigue using them.

Where do you see the bed always covered by a piece of glass? It looks like there's a photo in that very URL showing the bed open.

Also, designing a 1500 series pickup EV is far from simple. Those trucks are cheap to buy (ish) cheap to maintain (ish) and can haul a lot of stuff a long distance. An ev that meets these requirements is unobtainium. At best you might be able to pick 1 or 2 of those parameters to meet.

You can definitely make something that looks like an EV pickup, and we have been able to do that for almost a hundred years. Making something that performs like a regular pickup is entirely different, which is the important part.

* Toilets, sinks, and clogged drains are a do it yourself. Don't waste money on a plumber for those. But absolutely do spend the money on a plumber for serious plumbing problems.

* Have good home owners insurance and seriously weight the cost/benefits of a good home warrant subscription. Home warrant on a used home is like premium insurance in that it is usually there is no deductible and they are willing to fix a lot of things.

* Get solar panels. They are good for about 15 years and if you over produce the electricity company will pay you money for over producing.

* Make good use of your land, such as planting fruit trees. Herbs make for good ornamentals for flower gardens and many are low maintenance perennials. We have a Florea fig that grows about 8 feet a year and its leaves make for a superior and highly sought after tea.

* Spend the extra time and effort to insulate your home. This requires regular maintenance.

* Hard floors are easier to clean than carpet. They show all the dust that otherwise just gets trapped in carpet.

* If you are putting hard floors in always apply some layer of water sealant between the floors and next layer.

* Consider investing in a heating on demand system for heating water opposed to a water heater tank.

* Keep large metallic things (including insulation) out of your attic and consider investing in a lightning rod. Lightning is the number one reason you may loose your house to environment disaster.

* Ensure your land is away from a flood plane.

* Perhaps the most important thing is to build strong relationships with your neighbors. Trade keys, keep an eye on their property, when they are out of town collect their mail for them.
> Despite the invalid example, the point still stands. Put arbitrary Rust against Python or Typescript and you'll see it immediately.

Eh, I don't think that is fair, Rust even at best of times will have concepts like lifetime/references that Python and TS can just ignore and are thus "simpler".

A much better comparison would be something like https://matklad.github.io/2023/01/26/rusts-ugly-syntax.html.

That's seem counterproductive - according to: http://www.cs.kent.edu/~jmaletic/papers/ICPC2010-CamelCaseUn....

More accurately: "Given using AWS as a requirement, I recommended ECS instead of K8s".

It's not really surprising that AWS's K8S setup isn't great, and their own implementation ties in more closely with other services they offer. It's lock-in. AWS provides just enough K8S to tick the box on a spec sheet, but have little incentive to go beyond that.

Yes you are correct, laid off is the appropriate term.
I’m not making a claim that it is “objectively incorrect”. I am merely attempting to discourage this kind of usage, because I this it is a better course for language for it to not be used in this way.

(Also, whether it is included in dictionaries doesn’t really matter as to “correctnesss”. All words are real words.)
This happened to us on vacation in Italy 2 weeks ago, my almost 2 years old daughter was drinking water from glass wine (since some better restaurants there don't give you any other type of glass regardless of drink).

We obviously freaked out and acted immediately, the staff was a bit concerned but it wasn't their child chewing glass shards. Daughter fortunately developed quite a skill or pushing stuff she doesn't like from her mouth using tongue, so she pushed out everything quickly, small cut in her inner mouth, 2 minutes of crying, us running around and that was it, with some evening worries (wife is a doctor but still...).

Not recommending this experience, better check what they give to your young ones (say below age of 3) beforehand, or just bring your own unbreakable one, even if (good) plastic.
It's wild they still have the original design on their pre-order website. They know that what you order will not look anything like that thing on https://www.tesla.com/cybertruck - how are they able to advertise it as such?

It depends on the FAANG, though most of them have some amount of C++ code. Google has a ton; they'll appreciate people who know the language well.

I think people may be concerned because these days it's more niche, though it's still a very common language. Take a look at the job postings from the companies you want to join and see what skills they want. Get familiar with some of them, even if you don't do them professionally.

Get good at the Leetcode style questions.

Are you doing distributed systems work? Can you answer design questions like: design bit.ly, Twitter, or Facebook? There's a lot of info out there on how to solve these problems.

There may be questions about your ability to work with "big data". But that's also something you can pick up on your own, even if you aren't doing it at work.

Look for technically challenging projects at your job and solve them. Learn from them. Think about ways you could have solved them better with what you know now.
I don't think you'd print money just by telling people if a dependency is hard or easy to install though. You'd need to actually solve the problem of getting the dependency installed or suggesting some alternative solution that gets the code written.

E.g. if I'm banging my head against a wall trying to upgrade to the newest version of PyTorch for some graph embeddings feature and everything breaks, knowing it's high risk doesn't help me. I still need to get the thing installed so I can use the feature.

I should not have said speculation, the article makes it clear that 70% plus of unregulated exchange trades are wash trades.

Speculation (short selling etc) is a necessary part of a healthy financial system. Wash trades on the other hand are simply market manipulation.

GDP / production is what it's all about. The dollar is powerful in part because of US GDP. The financial sector exists to help put capital to work and extract more P (and to do so more efficiently). The financial sector cannot exist on it's own without meaningful production of value underneath it.

The crypto exchanges are different from forex in that forex facilitates people from other countries doing business with each other helping convert the value of one country's productive output into the value of the other countries productive output. Exchange rates rise and fall relative to GDP from the two countries.

I don't think comparing crypto exchange trading to forex makes sense, as that the crypto currencies don't have a meaningful connection to any nations GDP.

I think the point I'm trying to address here is that there is no P with cryptocurrencies. So the "crypto financial sector" seems more about price manipulation and gambling than it is helping facilitate trade between two economies.
The management of infrastructure via Terraform has a hidden engineering cost that should also be considered. Engineers can much more easily maintain, learn and introspect infrastructure via Kubernetes, despite its own complexity, given the immature, inconsistent and undeniably awkward qualities of the Terraform toolchain. Engineering time is expensive -- the morass of Terraform can easily quadruple engineering efforts.
