The title is clickbait in the sense that it suggests that we should expect this person to be super honest, and instead they were found to be dishonest.

On the contrary, I think we should expect them to be dishonest, and they are. They literally have a book named “Why It Pays to Break the Rules at Work and in Life”, what did you expect? Of course they're dishonest.
I hear this, but it's hard for me to believe. I was a customer (in the US) for over 10 years, spending several thousands of dollars without an issue, but then -- on two different instances -- I needed their awesome return policy.

In both cases, they completely stiffed me. That was the final straw that made me stop using Amazon.
Ask HN: What is your experience with product engineers?
Hi there,

I recently bumped into a job posting for a Product Engineer role [1]

This is the first time I hear about this role.

I am curious to hear from people with real-world experience with this kind of role.

Does it address the recurring issue of PMs and engineers not always getting along very well? or engineers feeling too remote from the customer?

Keen to hear thoughts.

Lehman's SPE-Classfication (2017)
Yeah! That locking threads feature is almost most of the times. Especially that auto lock after 6 months.

+that long a$$ auto mod pinned comment is also annoying to scroll
Hopefully for their sake not too much. It's still in beta with full launch in 2024.
What big thing are you expecting? Go is more of a stable language, a reliable and boring language for building software now that in ten years you can still maintain. Go isn't peaking, Go isn't an exciting or cool or hype language, it's just... there. And that's just fine.

Too many languages just started borrowing features from others, saying "yes" to every suggestion, until they got out of control and all over the place. Go says "no" more often than not. Which isn't always a good thing, mind; generics took a long time because they wanted to understand the problem and not add more like what happened to Java. The builtin min/max features up until this release only supported float64. Lots of small annoyances like that.
Yeah people who do real work need a 6000 pound vehicle with terrible sight lines that can 0-60 in 3.8 seconds.

You know, just in case your work involves obliterating someone in a parking lot with an amount of force that should probably be illegal.
'Correct' as in: you have inside information that confirms this or 'I agree'?
I haven't walked anything back, thank you. There's more than one bad thing Comcast does to their customers, we haven't got close to enumerating the full list. The two issues with the CPE are orthogonal to one another. Whether or not they lift the cap, they still perform traffic shaping when using their CPE (they also perform shaping /without/ their CPE, but it's much cruder).
How does the confidence scores work?
While I understand your sentiment, Q# is specialized for Quantum Computing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_Sharp

It's arguably different enough of a domain to justify a new language.

It could make it easier for build systems to be multi platform. You don’t have to keep track of custom args and add them to every call, you can just set the environment once.

Not yet. Considered adding it soon, the only reason I decided against — for now — is that for automatic evaluation human edits make it be try difficult!

Fully automatic can be evaluated fully automatically.

Good input.
Yes. Rust's compiler, rustc, is a bunch of Rust code that parses Rust syntax into an Abstract Syntax Tree to which it can apply macros, then this is lowered through two levels of intermediate representations, where more Rust code does the type inference and type checking and eventually borrow checking and various optimisations, until eventually it's lowered to LLVM Intermediate Representation LLVM IR, which LLVM will further optimise then produce machine code for the target architecture.
Hopefully it's as open as macOS, or at least much, much closer to it than iOS. Otherwise the options for exploration are limited by Apple.
Name your frames and the problem is solved. I for instance love the model because I no longer have to be tracking down millions of filenames - just one for each project.
Personally, that's not been my experience at all. I often find that when I have two friends with highly disparate and deeply held beliefs, the intense emotions they associate to these ideas are due to them not actually engaging each other but, instead, taking their emotional cues from their respective ideological silos (where no real discourse is occurring), and then proceeding to talk past each other.

Learning how to actually talk to one another in good faith with humility and charity is a skill that comes with practice. Deciding to engage each other less can worsen the situation by allowing one camp's preconceived notions about another camp to go unchallenged by reality. This allows each camp to tell an increasingly vilifying story about the other, which increases, rather than decreases, the emotional charge between the two.
I'm wondering the same. Anyone already played for some time with the pkg?
How is the C type system slowing you down? I thought the complaints around C productivity were around memory management and low-level APIs (both of which can be mitigated using libraries: you can “abstract away” these problems and stay in C).
My son had one use for it: He could be employed to tune the cellos in the orchestra , and didn't have to use an instrument.
Rocky does offer support, but your comment about Oracle still stands. I believe Rocky works with Red Hat.
You can kind of compile (a version of) Rust into C and then compile that as well, but I assume miscompiles are common and there's very little checking done. It's used to bootstrap the compiler for Debian.
The stakes are different. Back in the day they lived more independent life, these crazy things they believed in didn't really matter as only the people from your close geographic area would be affected.

Giving conflicting informations to people all around the world expected to interact with each other is a bigger issue.
It was the best domain registrar I had ever used - fast, streamlined, and convenient. So of course Google, the GM of Silicon Valley (1), had to sell it off or shut it down.

Cocaine is rife in many major cities. The police are using it, the public, the politicians. It’s shifted from a lower class thing to a fairly widespread middle class tipple.

It’s also a hell of a drug. It’s cut with impure and obscure substances, but that doesn’t negate the actual addictiveness of cocaine itself.

It’s not like weed where there are several components to addiction. It’s a hell of a drug. And when you really understand what that means it’s a bit too late.

I’m all for reducing the influence on gangs and street peddlers. But selling cocaine, even if it’s cut with government mandated and safe agents seems a bit too far. I personally see it more in the medicinal methadone category than the recreational “let’s legalise everything” marijuana category
Really curious how the simulator will work for this!

It will really come down to the cost.

I would be dishonest if I said I would pay a premium for meat as to not harm animals.

If you can kill two birds with one stone(ok maybe not the best saying in this context)and under cut the price of meat currently and at the same time be less cruel to animals then I will make it a diet staple ASAP.

I am sure it is anything but trivial though to undercut the price of chicken and turkey in the US.
There's no actual "argument against it" in the link - it's just a random person expressing their apparently strongly held personal preference.

Assemble a retro gaming computer. They have to be at the very least curious about the subject and you can generate interest. I spent a lot of time in school in shop class. That's how I got used to working in hobbies/projects. Working with your hands and following instruction list to build stuff. Having that DIY mindset.

Learners today have amazing tools like YouTube, Khan Academy, freecodecamp, Wikipedia, ChatGPT, Google Bard, and Bing Chat.
With the advent of the paperless office, the increasing ubiquity of screens, and the steady progress in 3D rendering performance – there will soon be little need for 2D map projections. We just render the Earth as a sphere and do some perspective projection.
Ah right, via the weird dongle they have. It's not integrated into a home backup setup like the F150L, though.
> but you arguably shouldn't use the Suzuki method to teach music to your kids anyway since it tends to guide them to a local maximum by emphasizing ear training over reading

I disagree. I did 10 years of Suzuki as a kid, then switched to an intermediate/advanced teacher for another 10 years. I had to shore up a bit of reading for, let's say 9 months, but I read at a professional level and played a big chunk of the cello repertoire. My mom teaches Suzuki and many of her students followed the same teacher path as I did and excelled.

Imo Suzuki is very suited for kids, and anyone with that skill foundation can backfill things like reading skills relatively easy. I don't see a local maximum here.
Sure, although as a Go user, the behavior described is exactly what I’d expect. These new functions are no different from functions that you could write yourself.
I would say no, currently AI wouldn't be capable of holding my attention in the way a human would. Because I expect my relationships (no matter how artificial or distant they may be) to have depth. You know, I study the person, get to know their bio and vital statistics, their history, and I suppose AI could fabricate that kind of stuff, but it would all be fake.

And there is a parallel there to actresses who play a character in a show, and so they too have an artificial persona, but there is still a human with a real personality and history behind that character, and most of my limerence with actresses is spent studying the real person and getting to know her biography, beyond the artifice of a character in a show. With an AI, there wouldn't be anything satisfying like that.

I think that also limerence often carries the poorly-founded hope that there could be a consummation of the relationship, no matter the distance or insurmountable obstacles. With an AI I think it's a foregone conclusion that there wouldn't be any consummation. In fact it could be extremely bizarre, because an AI could in fact profess its love for someone and express desire to be close and a willingness to consummate that relationship! Now that is most unlike most parasocial interactions!
That would be great if the result were that people currently in those jobs could instead pursue their passions and hobbies.

Instead we're just rapidly dividing people into those who have nothing and those who have everything.
Increasing school choice incentivizes the stratification of schooling, by changing the choice from "free, probably adequate" public schools versus "expensive, maybe better" into "free, where all the poor kids go", "mid-priced, where everyone who gives a shit and can afford to goes", and "expensive, maybe better". Adding that middle tier charter school leaves the public school with only the poor or uncaring, leading to worse outcomes.

And that's before the absolutely, stark-raving mad suggestion that religious institutions should be able to collect from state-funded education allowances, introducing a healthy mix of indoctrination into the mix.
> I don't think any language sparks joy...

Let the Marie Kondofication of programming languages begin.

But one of Kondo's points is that
"Only you can know what kind of environment makes you happy," i.e. there are no universals.
It's kind of interesting though because a lot of people using 3rd party apps have proven they are willing to pay for a good experience (Apollo had a subscription I think, RIF has a paid tier, etc...). So instead of charging apps for API access, just require all access through a 3rd party app require authenticated users, and those authenticated users must pay a monthly fee to use third party apps.

You don't over burden one single entity with large recurring payments (the app developers themselves), your power users provide revenue, and you can slowly work on your value proposition of "hey we have updated our app to not be as crappy, you can browse reddit for free if you switch back".
before the Obama administrations emissions rules[1] trucks and suv's were quite small, blame the rules put out in that ruling for why trucks and suvs are so gigantic, I too am frustrated with how big they are and I own a new truck!

Sure, the API is a very simple json request.

Currently, registration is needed for the sharing of AIs, as you rightly mentioned, to prevent malicious individuals from distributing malware links. However, accessing the AIs does not necessitate registration. This is because, depending on your definition of "bad actors," users have limitations in terms of what they can presently accomplish with an AI, even in an uncensored state.
Calculus had this fearsome reputation in high school of being terribly difficult. When I finally learned the basics of it (in college) I thought "is that all?" Of course, it wasn't all at all, but the calculus needed for high school physics is pretty simple.

I took every honors class in high school. Everything they had. I was terribly, woefully underprepared for college. It took a year and a half before I had my legs back under me. It was a wonder I didn't flunk out.

But I had a great time in high school. I had little responsibilities, a little money, and lots of friends to hang with.
Discussion of the paper specifically starts at an hour and 7 for anyone looking for it
Crossing fingers for this to take off. There’s a lot of potential applications for a device like this.
I thought this was gonna be about the submarine that was lost the other day with the five people in it.
A lot of times you don't argue with someone to prove to them you are right, but to prove to bystanders that there are different ways of looking at this. Refusing to engage will not make the world a better place if the only ones talking are idiots.
Yikes. Imagine being so messed up that you forgot you had the headset on and became trapped in an altered world.
Absolute pitch in equal temperment. Which is a bad skill to have for many instruments. Tuning is a compromise, since chords are what count. A third is a 3:2 relationship between frequencies, an octave is 1:2, and a fifth is 4:3. (I might have the ratios above backwards). If you work out the math each will result in a different pitch for each note, and you need all 3
The other difference between Cybertruck and Ford trucks is that Ford has actually sold trucks to customers.

I love it how the whole thing uses ICs but the actual NOR gate is discrete.
You can't "remove all items from the slice"; you can only change the length to 0: "slice[:0]".
These 3 points are valid for non-vegans as well.
It is more locked down than both.
If the iPhone has peaked, it seems likely because everyone has a cellphone now, and Google's only chance to increase its market share is to convert people from iPhone to Android.

I initially went with Android because it was much cheaper and I only use my phone for calls, texts, and directions. It was fine for the first couple of years, but then Google forced an update to my phone (I had all data disabled, including cellular data, and was not even using maps at the time). After that update, even simple things like zooming a picture would cause the photo app to crash, speech to text became much worse, and I finally gave up and got a refurb'd iPhone on eBay for half price.

Never been sorry I switched from Google to Apple, and I wouldn't go back.
> The taxes paid would be the same here.

No, they wouldn't, because payroll taxes exist, and are paid by both the employer and employee.

> Okay, but then from that perspective the capital gains tax rate is always the same capital gains rate no matter what

I was taking issue with your misuse of “human” for what ia properly “labor” (which is as much a human means of relating to a capitalist econony as capital is), and also discussed what the labor equivalent of capital gains taxes (which are very much not the same.)
This is not the meeting of equals on neutral ground though.

One party is entering another party's home. If you're not comfortable with rules inside that home, then don't enter that home.

100% agree that whether your own home is shoeless or not is a personal and cultural preference and decision. More power to you. But if I am entering your home, then your rules prevail.
I'm a bit surprised that the slog package was added to the stdlib, but it does seem to use the API that I think is the most ergonomic across libraries I saw in Go (specifically, varargs for key values, and the ability to create subloggers using .With), so I guess it's nice most of the community will standardize around it.

If all goes well, you won't have different libraries using different loggers anymore, in some not too distant future, which should improve easy composability.

There is a significant portion of the USA that will take on 84 month loans, make negative-equity trade-ins, or refinance their homes if it means they can get a new truck.

Just the defaults, with regard to that; so I think not? I see in about:config: "privacy.resistFingerprinting=false".

We've had lessons on pronouns for at least since I've been in school.
This is why in The Republic (the dramatic setting being a chance, informal discussion about justice), the ruling class was not allowed to have private property - because it warps their judgement. What's interesting is that despite this prohibition, Socrates refuses to concede that they would not be happy, the implication being that their jobs as rulers would be sufficient.

Notice how many games involve power and control. How much happier might people be, if they had some real power in decision-making in their communities!
This trivializes the process of developing relationships, and the mechanisms by which relationships promote well-being. In turn:

1) You must consider the dynamics of rejection. People may recognize and seek relationships, but find themselves unable to build them. However much you might want to have a relationship with someone, they have to reciprocate. And if there's something "wrong" with you, you're going to find that a lot of people will not want your company. Additionally, thanks to network effects, one person taking this stance can close a large swath of relationships that might otherwise come into being; being on the bad side of someone who is popular or well-connected can quickly turn you into a pariah.

2) Relationships don't just magically make you happier or healthier; they provide access to goods and services that fulfill needs, because affinity prompts people either to provide them directly or to direct you to places where you can get them. Not every relationship is equal, either, but having more of them means a greater chance of having some that cancel out or improve upon deleterious relationships or the lack of a relationships. Some relationships take more out of you than they give.
What's missing from a survey like that is correlation with prior experience and education. Python was a previous winner on those kind of surveys, and it's a terrible language in many ways.
The importance of creating communities over content
Agreed with the general sentiment. I just don't think that wearing or not wearing shoes in a house is best described as an attribute of culture. I'd bet it's more often a personal decision. I grant that there may be some groups for whom it's more common, or even named as part of a cultural tradition, but in any case those groups would be doing the same thing no matter what country they were in, so America has nothing to do with it.

> You're taking it as a given that people perceive education to not be a demanding career, and I find that incredibly absurd.

It's comically wrong. People choosing education for that reason are in for a rude awakening. Many of that sort figure that out during their student-teaching phase, I suppose. Lots of teachers also leave within the first few years, and it's pretty much never because they found it too easy. It's a hard job, with an abusive strain of "you should make this sacrifice—for the children, you know, and of course we won't compensate you in any way, because we're not going to sacrifice for the kids, don't be silly" running through it, and bad pay, especially if you've got the kind of mind, interpersonal skills, and work-ethic we'd hope the median teacher would have.

Reports I've heard of truly bad teachers in-the-wild are mostly ones who are power-tripping jerks who like being "liked" by (some of) the kids (and who are typically fairly dumb, besides), not ones who are hanging around for an easy job where they can sponge off the taxpayer, because that's not really what it's like. The bad ones who stick around, it's not mainly because admin can't get rid of them, but for the same "admin has no idea WTF is going on with them" visibility-problems that are also common in private industry, plus they aren't necessarily totally bad at the job, in the ways that are being measured. Teacher efficacy measurements keep being attempted, and keep turning out to be so noisy they're nearly useless—even ones you'd expect to work, turn out not to, when you look at the statistics. That part's an unsolved problem that, believe me, plenty of teachers wouldn't mind seeing solved (they don't like their bad co-workers, either) though none of them like it when crappy solutions are pushed, since, you know, they don't actually work and are highly likely to punish/reward practically randomly.
