Negotiation is all about leverage. More often than not leverage is on the employer side.

People look for a job because they most likely need one; unless they are in the fortunate position of working for fun and they don’t want to retire just yet.

Negotiating means you should be ready to walk away: let’s be honest … how many with their first offer at their dream job (e.g: FAANG) would be ready to walk away from it?

Unless you have very specific skills and knowledge, you are rarely in the position of bumping the numbers much.

That said, you must negotiate the first offer (usually low), then you counteroffer much higher with the goal of usually settle somewhere in the middle.

Recruiters know how to play the game.

Also, I believe everyone should have a good idea on how much they should be paid. I usually give the first number, if asked (high) I don’t see anything wrong with that.

I already know they will lowball me and then we will settle somewhere halfway.
Sadly, it cannot run on Haiku OS. That would have increased the number of OSes it runs on to seven.

How hard would it be to modify this to work with ISO-8601, the international time stamp format?

In the most common case, you'd have something like 2023-07-02T15:46:00Z possibly with a ".123" been the last "0" and "Z".

Would it be fastest to just copy the relevant chars to the correct place for the code in the post? Or could you do it in place somehow?
The F-15, F-16, and F-22 will still be used for the Homeland defense mission (looking at something out over the Atlantic). The F-35 is more intended for expeditionary warfare.
The implication that anybody who's been banned from a subreddit is probably an antivaxxer or some other form of cretin, cute. In reality, reddit has automod bots mass banning countless thousands of accounts without consideration for their position, simply because of where they said a thing and not the thing that was said. And you can even catch bans for criticizing this because the mods employ the same pattern you have; anybody criticizing their capricious moderation must surely be a terrible cretin!

Nothing can be done for the people who choose to stay (people who want to move north but can’t afford to can be provided assistance, both direct cash and logistical). The climate change trajectory is already locked in; arguing with a freight train bearing down on you seems unproductive.

Ah I see rarely is it the case that they uttered regrettable or abhorrent remarks; the outcome always stems from either a conspiracy or an authoritarian moderator reveling in their power.

That's definitely not what companies have to pay to employ someone for, say, $30k/yr.

So specifically, you are saying that LLM coding assistant currently gets confused when working on a large source file but if it had room for more context, you could get better help in writing code because it would have understanding of the entire module. Correct?
Perhaps a safer way is to use a different url (parameter) for the standalone mode.
I know that. I can read. But why in the world should the two networks, of vastly different scale and maturity, be judged by the same standard?
Can be mitigated by a rope(?) structure (i.e. the vector is split into chunks of fixed size, no re-allocation required) with real pointers. It will be unsafe inside, but safe (read-only) interface seems to be possible.

Deallocation will be O(n), but still much faster than a tree.
Neatly omits the massively expensive calendar conversion step for turning the timestamp into a useful format for fast arithmetic. Parsing integers from strings is not why parsing timestamps is slow, any more than counting the length of strings is why XML parsing might be slow.

For time-sequential data, one easy speedup hack is caching the UNIX epoch for the current day start and adding the HH:MM:SS manually. No measurements to offer, but would suggest approaches like this would cleanly beat simdification of a trivial part of a complex task

Can you link to more info about this?
This sounds about right to me. One of the points in the article that was really enlightening to me was the trade-off between lower-risk, subsistance production and higher-risk, but much higher reward excess production. Smaller and more insular communities tend to value the subsistance level production as they don't need to over-produce in order fulfill their community's needs. So, a reddit that is dominated by lots of niche communities that don't want to produce excess value that can be collected in 'rent' or 'taxes', really undermines the big dreams of the VC's that have funded reddit for so long.
I’m curious why you provided these services? Did you not know it was against the law? I’m reminded of the case of someone smoking pot in Russia in getting years of prison for it. I definitely do not agree with the criminality, let alone sentencing, but why? Ignorance or did you not think you’d get caught?

> Secondly, you're assuming that those oil company scientists were wrong and academics were right. But that's a product of media-driven loyalty to academia. Dig into the details and you'll see that those oil scientists were saying true things like "the models aren't reliable, we can't predict the impact" and in fact academics agreed

There’s a lot to unpack, first is an implicit assumption “media driven loyalty to academics” even exists as a thing to discuss. I’d go as far to say the words are meaningless in this context. I can say the moon is a collection of ghost farts. Just because I can say something does not make it true, or worthy of debate. What you’re saying here is akin to a moon made of ghost farts, it’s just dressed to look and sound less absurd.

Next you state that the models were unreliable and that only the “oil scientists” stood up to the grizzly academics. This too is weird. As like, you know, science progresses. Just because they were wrong with a specific model doesn’t mean they were wrong about the overall outcome. I don’t understand how that refutes anything. It feels very black and white, and the world isn’t just shades of gray but color, beeb.

> Thirdly, you assert that oil companies must have been selecting such scientists deliberately, but ignore that academia also selects its scientists. You aren't going to get anywhere in academic climatology if you think industrial activity doesn't have much impact on the climate. Not only will you struggle to get funding but you'll also be attacked and driven out by other academics. Any argument that a consistency of views must be driven by selection bias has to be applied fairly.

I don’t have much to say here other than, like the obvious difference is one group is paid extremely well and the other group isn’t. The group paid extremely well, oil scientists, are incentivized to fall in line with the needs of whoever writes their paychecks.

Finally, you talk about empirical observations but provide a single link to a popular science type article. I’d expect at least a literature review or something meaningful. The mention of Covid also kind of shows your hand, your interest and expression seems to be based on “sides,” breaking it up as an us versus them. Combining issues you find to be related because of your world view. I’d really encourage you to take a step back, and really look at the world. You might just find that color, instead of black and white, makes for a more descriptive and accurate existence.
The fact that "giving up Diet Coke" is "no small adjustment" for some people should be more than enough reason to never touch the stuff.

I agree, it's so frustrating that there aren't more technically knowledgeable writers.
Are the automod bots a conspiracy? Conspiracy.. that's a new word that means any crazy obviously false theory right? If I insinuate that somebody is a conspiracy theorist, that proves they are wrong of course.
It looks nice, I’ll say that.

I’d be concerned about the visor getting in the way of the cameras when it is flipped up, also the fact that you can use it with the visor down highlights that there are no cameras in the front screen so whatever cameras are used to see the outside world are not quite in the right place to see what your eyes will see which means the vision will not be so accurate.
In the correct physics engine, with the correct models of eyeballs etc., a connectome-based model may experience qualia. It would likely tell us that it experienced qualia.

The biggest difference would be that new connections wouldn’t be formed, so it wouldn’t learn.

I have reviewed the link you provided. I agree with the guidelines noted therein. I asked some of my peers to give an objective read of my comment and they found it an accurate reflection of how they too responded to the posted essay. I cannot identify anything about it that was contrary to what is observed by many members of this community.

I do apologize to you though if you read it differently.
There's a simple way to find out the truth of these claims, wait a decade, and see if a product comes from it, or if it is replicated. All else is sound and fury, signifying nothing.

From the patent application[1], the method used is

First, obtaining a material at a first higher pressure that superconducts at that first higher pressure and at a desirable practical operating temperature (e.g., room temperature). Next, while maintaining the material at the first higher pressure, cooling it to a very low temperature. Next, releasing the pressure to a second, lower pressure (e.g., room pressure) and then slowly raising the temperature (e.g., at about 1 K per minute) to a higher temperature such as the desirable practical operating temperature (e.g., room temperature).

Does it work? I don't know, none of us does. It's plausible. Let's just wait and see.

Not quite. In most cases that number you quoted is an F-35 without an engine. You might as well say “Here is a $78 million paperweight!”

From Air Space Forces:

“The unit cost of the fighters will average about $75 million a copy, but that is without the Pratt & Whitney F135 engine. With the engine, the last three-lot deal achieved a unit cost below $80 million per jet. The JPO did not provide Air & Space Forces Magazine an all-up cost for the fighters in Lots 15-17.

For the airframe and mission equipment only, the Lot 15-17 cost of F-35s ranges “from $70.2 million to $69.9 million for the F-35A, $80.9 million to $78.3 million for the F-35B, and $90 to $89.3 million for the F-35C,” a Lockheed spokesperson said.”

https://www.airandspaceforces.com/30-billion-f-35-deal-will-....

I figured why not go on a research tear while I’m doublechecking your numbers.

Another research paper states the US government would save 14.1 Billion keeping the A-10s flying.

“The current selected acquisition report for the F-35 proposes to acquire 1,763 aircraft. Posit, on a very conservative basis, that 10% of them will be used for CAS in low-intensity conflicts. Not building those 176 planes, over a 15 year period, would save a minimum of $18.3 billion.144 The Air Force estimates that retiring all of the A-10s would save $4.2 billion. Posit that only the 173 A-10s whose service lives have been extended to 2035 were retained, virtually one for one with the F-35s that were cut, and that no dollars were saved by cutting the other 110 A-10s. This budget would still save a minimum of $14.1 billion. More importantly, the United States would retain a far superior capability to fight low-intensity conflicts.”

They don't operate the relays themselves, rather users install relays on hetzner vpses/servers.
It's going to be a lot more I'd think. Also remember that those mods are so dedicated and productive that they'll do it for free. How much would Reddit need to pay for for this level of moderation?

How would you even reach some of those people? I'm pretty sure some of them have very specialized domain knowledge and already have full time paid jobs. They aren't in it for the money.

Reddit risking throwing all that away is shows an absurd and extraordinary level of ignorance.

It’s always interesting reading stats like these as an Australian. Our most recent heatwave was something like a maximum of 100F during the day and a minimum of 85F during the night at 60-80% humidity. So there was this period of probably >24 hours that was at or above the “critical environmental limit”. It’s too hard to find good stats on how many deaths this caused (you could simply count the number of the deaths on the day to get an upper bound, but how many of those deaths will be “people who would have died this month because of their fragile health and the heat wave merely “gathered” those deaths on that day? Ideally you want something like QALY impact instead), but I believe I recall studies indicating heatwaves like these increase mortality by 5% (so from 40 per 100,000 to 42 per 100,000).
I've seen plenty of people from a low education background, and I also come partly from a family of peasants 2 generations ago. Education gives some ability for critical thinking. Absence of education leaves people extremely manipulable. People with education can't understand how very, very simplistic people can be when they don't have it, until they get dropped right into the middle of it and see it first hand. This is not a criticism of them, it's an endorsement of the value of education.
I was able to legally download the entire research PDF directly from the linked-to-URL — without logging in [and I do not have any Alphabet accounts, with DNS-block].
On the other hand, just because it isn't peer reviewed yet, doesn't mean it is wrong. Peer reviews are laughable these days (well, at least I prefer laughing over crying). If it is truly new and ground breaking, there is a chance that you will get rejected into oblivion, and have to stand your ground and build your case for quite a while. Nothing wrong with trying to make money in the meantime.

Reddit would simply contract with some paid content moderators overseas, crank out automated moderation tools (With AI, this is easier than ever) and nothing would change.

I worked at a fairly popular social media site about a decade ago and paid content moderation farms were a dime a dozen, I can’t even imagine what it’s like now.
Hetzner used by criminals would be my guess.
That would be an explanation and probably by okhams razor be more likely. But wouldn't that ISP notice the difference in traffic patterns drastically and react? It is just unlikely (but far from impossible) that this is something 'normal' happening.

My fear would be that someone still is trying to gather a critical mass of nodes to contact controll servers via TOR to cause mass havoc in a single country from within a single country. Generally IMHO Germany would be a good target for destabilisation currently. But I think and hope this could just a bit of overinterpreting. Probably one would need a good statistic on the subnets the users come from.
And we are back to the depressing part where you can't even bother.
Honestly, Andrej Karpathy's video series on YouTube is good enough to keep me from even looking at for-profit courses. That attitude might change as I get further along in them, but for now I'm a big fan of his pedagogical approach.

You should definitely continue yelling into the void about this.
Admission rates are heavily dependent on how easy it is to apply, how many times you're allowed to apply, how likely a student thinks their chances are, basically heavily dependent on the college application process, which is very different in different countries. E.g, I think Indian IITs have <1% acceptance rates but you probably don't have to shell over a $100 to apply.
