That's a reasonable distinction but just look at the data itself.

There are tons of low level employees posting their salaries. If you work in those roles, that data could be more valuable to a candidate than Glassdoor's amorphous projections.

I think the user behavior that facilitates this is the same behavior you see represented on Blind.

Citation needed.

There are tons of claims but from what I can see not a lot of proof.

Thanks for sharing - I didn't know this was not a new situation for the law, but it makes sense that many contract agreements find themselves moving forward without a real signature.
It's funny how the wholesale electric cost is really no different than the rest of the nation (2-4c / kwh) but silicon valley power sells it to you for a small markup while PG&E has inflated it 10-20x

Asset delivery is one of the key aspects, no doubt. Keep in mind that today, browsers support up to 4GB at the moment - but that is a limitation that won't be an issue eventually, and when it's lifted it will allow whatever local storage the user's client hardware has to be leveraged. This would enable AA and AAA desktop/console games on the web.
The last year has significantly weakened Twitter's position. Musk paid $44B for a company that was almost immediately worth less; he has massively harmed it's image for further valuation reduction. The recent "must be logged in to view tweets" and "only X00 items available" combined with the increase in hate speech weakened it even further.

Further, Twitter has laid off 75% of the people who could help combat this push.

You are describing Twitter from 2-3 years ago. It is not is such a strong position now, and people are actively looking for something else that provides similar functionality. By bootstrapping from an existing social graph, it's a really strong possibility this is Twitter's death blow.
You may want to compare this against boost/spirit. I use Spirit extensively for my own Domain Specific Language parsing requirements.
I've been using Debian since before woody, and am well aware of the usual caution against jumping versions. I have jumped versions in the past with very little pain despite it being officially unsupported. Obviously this time I gambled and lost as it clearly breaks your system more severely than usual.

None of that changes the user-experience comparison with mainstream OS's or parent's point about Linux's "‘stability vulnerabilities’ where the user has to tread carefully". Linux is well known for being a sharp tool without safety guards. That, and the "RTFM" tone of the typical response to trouble, are some reasons why the Year Of The Linux Desktop is perpetually stuck somewhere in the future.
I too have made similar observations regarding pydantic and FastAPI.

I was evaluating various Python async http frameworks and landed on a similar stack:

- attrs/cattrs for models
- starlette+uvicorn for HTTP/websocket
- validation I’m still on the fence about. I’ll see how far I get with the built in validators offered by attrs. I use voluptuous at work and generally like the DX but it’s in maintenance mode.

This is purely personally preference, I’m sure devs using fastapi+pydantic are more productive in the long run. It almost feels like I’m hand rolling my own fastapi implementation but at the same time I don’t want to be too locked in to frameworks like that.

Ive been burnt by magic frameworks that do too much behind the scenes and there’s something nice about fully understanding what’s going on when you hand stitch libraries yourself.
It's not my least favorite. There are cities I dislike more. It's just one of my least favorites.

And yes, I do and have done all of those things. I didn't say that there's no good aspects to it! But the good stuff doesn't balance out the bad for me, and the same sort of good stuff can also be had in other cities that are generally more pleasant.
It's a rabbit hole to go down, for sure.

I spent a while one week going through all my online identity, services I use, etc and putting together basically a dependency tree.

What kicked this off was an overlapping but probably more unusual concern. Basically, I was worried that I had things _too_ secure. If I lost certain access, I'd be _screwed_. It's great that this account needs 45 factor 6 dimensional holographic password authentication to log in, but what happens if I lose something or get bonked on the head and forget something or... how can I recover access, but also set this up in a way where the backdoor I leave is _not_ one that's easily accessible to others.

Anyway, long story short is I have a separate ccTLD domain from my country that is _exclusively_ for use as the root of my identity/recovery. Everything related to it is in a separate account. It charges to a credit card that's not used for anything else. The only thing it does is receives email and dumps them into object storage so I can periodically review. (I don't want them forwarded elsewhere in case the email is something like a password recovery email.)

The recovery solution for this is the ccTLD's dispute resolution policy, and finally my (local) courts. As sexy as that Cocos Islands or Indian Ocean Territory or vanity TLD is, I have a lot more options more easily available to me with my local ccTLD administrator and local courts. I'm pretty much relying on the court's ability to accurately verify my identity as the lock on the back door.
I wonder what is the effectiveness rate of forced rehab programs.
EVs are better than ICE cars, but they're still a bandaid. Low occupancy vehicles aren't sustainable, and that doesn't change with a minor increase in efficiency and decarbonization.

They still take up too much space, both on the road and when parked.

They are still a menace to public health, especially anyone not in a car. Hell, they're a menace to people in shops and sitting in their living rooms.

They are still noisy (in fact, artificially so.)

They don't address transportation inequality; in fact, spending on things like public chargers are just further subsidization while cities boo-hoo about how there's no money to build a cycletrack or put down some paint.
Program Managers are fixed term - up to 3 2 year terms (though Director Tompkins generally doesn’t like PMs to be around longer than 4 years - see section 1101 of the Strom Thurmond NDAA for more details about the hiring authority).

I don’t know about the admin vs director types split you’re talking about (at least in the PM ranks). Office directors generally provided top cover and some very sweeping research directions, but as a PM it was your job to come up with research programs that were roughly compatible, convince the office director it was, and then manage the technical execution with the performers and doing dog and pony shows when the pentagon called.
There must be some metric of the resonance of a particular piece by looking at the number of reposts and distribution of comments amongst them (plus an analysis of the sentiment of the comments and characteristics of the thread trees in each separate posting).

Just looking at this listing, without looking at the comments in each one, this seems to have a sustained resonance.

Maybe I’m biased–it certainly resonates with me!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Django is not a web server. It's a framework used in conjunction with an app server e.g. gunicorn and a web server e.g. nginx

JavaScript already has this. It's called typeof.
Meta is not the target market for React Native.
The solution is to pile features onto typescript that were never intended to be there, the same way we have done with Javascript, HTML, CSS, and HTTP. None of these things are pure, and all of them have been ravaged by competing interests and committees who were all making financially driven decisions when writing the standards.

It would be best to abandon javascript and typescript as backend languages. I don't mind them on the frontend because a typescript compiler is useful when the application you're writing is originating data and not receiving it. And javascript does DOM manipulation admirably. However, we live in a world where humans are more expensive than computers. If I had my way, we'd write C# backends and Angular/Typescript frontends, but that's not the world we live in. Everything has to be JS because most people employed as "software engineers" are not truly very good at their jobs
They may make a “Lite” version of the app like they did for Facebook or WhatsApp, but Twitter’s user base is much less developing world heavy, so I doubt it. This was clearly a skunkworks project, once it is established, it will get more resources including optimization specialists. Then again, Twitter, being the abode of bro-grammers, never got it and Musk had a point when he fired most of the team.
On top of that, when you download the app there's only an option to login with instagram. If you don't have an instagram account already there's no link to create an account. Surprisingly inconvenient.
amazing how massive they made it with so little functionality

classic shitware
Education is the way we teach people to think. There are other ways. I actually prefer the apprenticeship model.

I’ve learned a staggering amount just by showing up and helping smarter people with their work.

I went to college, got a useless degree (but maybe learned to think and gained some work skills through work study). But really the valuable things I learned I learned on the job with fantastic mentors.

The standard model of education is not the only one, but yes some processes or system for leveling people up is certainly required.
I tried to install Debian 11 on an Early 2014 MacBook pro and it didn't have video at all for me in the installer. I didn't pursue it after that. You have done a lot to get this to work.

I've tried different Linux distros on this computer and Manjaro was the best out of the box that I tried. I recently changed to Arch thinking that it was the true source of Manjaro's working, and it is not so much. I've got it to an OK state though.
It is a fantastic book. Different to the film adaption, but every bit as good. Danny Wallace is my God.
At my first project in my first job, there was a MockWorkerInfoServiceStubFactory. I think it was a factory for mocks of the stub for the worker info service, but it's never easy to know when to pop tokens from the start or from the end of such a name… (It was in C++.)
My point is that discussing her qualifications is irrelevant. If she were there to be a judge, then her qualifications as a jurist might matter. But she's not there to be a judge, she's there to be a political operative. I know it, you know it, Senate Republicans know it, the plaintiffs pleading cases before her know it, and (most importantly) she knows it. So why the hell is anyone talking about her qualifications as a jurist? In her role on the Supreme Court, her only role that matters, she's a political operative, and she behaves as such. Accordingly, that's the only lens under which she should be analyzed. The ABA has nothing relevant to say about her.
Sorry, to be clear I teach adults, so it's not part of my job description to make any parents see reason. The concerns of one adult do not impact the way I teach any other adult, no matter how they are related.

As for my role as a citizen, I'm thinking specifically about my local community, which is beset by people who have very loud feelings about certain books existing in the school library. A lot of communities are facing this issue.

I call these people busybodies because nothing that they do or say is based in reality, but only on their feelings. It's feelings all the way down just, like the linked blog post. All they're doing is making everyone's lives harder: other parents, teachers, administrators, and especially the students. For what? There's no actual problem being cited. This is all to quell their own feelings about books. That's pretty much the definition of being a busybody.
I would add that intuition and knowing how to question it is also vastly important.

My main driver is Ruby - I have a good feeling about code that can be refactored to use Enumerable more effectively; but I also know that Enumerable offers so much that I might be expecting too much of it. So 80% of the time I point to a method that solves the exact problem and the rest of the time I know how to write it differently.

Another offering. Another ad platform. They might merge if it doesn't grow.
Before the invention of antibiotics almost all medicine was nonsense and the drugs available were mostly alcohol, cocaine, opium, aspirin and caffeine. It is only since the 1950s that there is a huge amount of different drugs and mass production on top of it.
What is the known solution? I don't know much about this area.
There's a lot to lose, in fact. Anyone who has lived in deep poverty and watched as loved ones became homeless or suffer from painful/serious health conditions because treatment is too expensive knows how much there is to lose.
Yes. Most of the work is not done in the DARPA building. Generally federal contractor sites. The daily work in the building is phone calls, reviewing papers, email, building powerpoint slides, and trying to come up with the next program. In my time, most PMs managed between 3 and 5 programs, some of their own creation, and some inherited from outgoing PMs (term limit + federal contracting timelines means generally the originating PM is not around to see a program through to its conclusion)
The one in the Milky way is small as well
It does appear Twitter's legal experts were also fired / laid off when Elon took the reins.

When I first read it, I thought some of it sounded really amateur. I've read lots of lawyerese (I used to provide expert testimony in certain types of technical cases), and this did not come across like it was written by a legal expert of any level.

Now reading this analysis, there are a lot more bells going off. I personally would disregard it - and if forced to respond, I would require a rewritten letter with an appropriate level of authority in its wording.
I self host email and have a catchall E-Mail adress.

Don't even need to create one, I just use the company name or whatever I like and then I get it automatically sorted into my directory structure with a sieve script.
I don't get it. Someone smoking something doesn't bother me, unless maybe if I can smell it, then it bothers me very, very slightly. The same way someone drinking a beer in public doesn't bother me. How could it?

If sleeping on the street is a crime, enforce that crime. Don't pretend that if we magically banned all of the hypothetical reasons people might commit that crime that it will eliminate that crime. We can't enforce every-fucking-thing - and we have proven conclusively that we can never effectively ban popular street drugs - so let's focus instead on crimes with victims and enforce them more aggressively.
Maybe you'll like the CD Foundation which seems to be modeled like its brethren Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) but focuses purely on continuous delivery pipelines and related services.

PS: You don't want to build this stuff yourself, especially since you have stuff like ArgoCD and Tekton well capable to provide the basics ;)
I find this incredibly challenging to play with the current control scheme. Either up or space would be nice to jump with. Heck even if a single mouse click was jump it would be easier.

Having to time holding down left and then double taping it is an exercise in frustration.

Other than that it looks interesting, I enjoyed the moving platforms.
The difference is simply in stage. Threads is 0 to 1. Twitter is legacy. If Twitter shipped a massive extension it would rightly be mocked as it, until recently, had a staff of folks iterating and improving on it. Threads is probably 15-20 people proving a concept.

The dissonance you’re pointing out is Twitter is being mocked for turning itself from incumbent to upstart when it certainly didn’t need to. It’s the stick in the spokes meme in corporate form.

Threads on the other hand is a proper upstart from a company that very much isn’t - and notably one that hasn’t shown itself particularly adept at building 0 to 1 products.

Meta is doing an uncharacteristically good job launching Threads and Twitter is doing an uncharacteristically bad job of maintaining and iterating on Twitter.

[edit] I can't help but feel like the Twitter changes are just like the Digg re-design that led to its relegation to archive.org, and if this had never happened, I seriously doubt anyone would have challenged Twitter, let alone Zucc.
You could tie it into a calendar app and have it as a family organiser sitting in the hallway.
I was listening to a talk (strange loop conf, can’t search the talk itself) where the speaker claims C and languages derived from it feel clunky because they were invented, while Lisp, Haskell were discovered. The latter group is more cohesive and relies on simpler truths instead of the amalgam of idioms you can find in Java.

I concur with this because programming with Clojure feels wonderful. Your code is a straight line from input to solution. With imperative languages, you see yourself applying the duct tape.
It’s very low, lower than regular rehab, which is already not that effective.
Assuming that you mean working on cool research. You can interview and come in as a DARPA Program manager where you need to bring in a grand vision and would be in charge of revolutionizing a field(s). But what is it that you would do day to day? A DARPA PM doesn't do actual research but instead has access to the network of the best minds in research and uses them to shape a multi-million 5 yr 'program' and arrange for funding and transition paths to DoD and private industry. A PM's tenure is 5 yrs, so most PMs come in with a vision, start 2-5 programs, inherit other programs and then transition out.

You can always look at the latest programs - https://www.darpa.mil/work-with-us/opportunities

The people doing the actual research are independent research labs, universities, and small business. These are a combination of scientists and engineers publishing papers and taking the technology from papers to the field.
Clubhouse died because it was a bad idea. Twitter Spaces hasn't succeeded either.
Same sort of thing happened with mental illness in california, probably a leading cause of homelessness problems.

Years ago, the law was changed to allow mentally-ill but benign or even non-ill people to escape the "snake pits", mental institutions that kept people incarcerated and drugged. This allowed lots of people to recover.

But then Ronald Reagan (as governor of california) cut state mental illness funding.

Now clearly mentally ill people - who needed help - were turned away unless they were clearly "a danger to themselves and others".

Many homeless people are these mentally ill people, and they can't get help (and they can't be forced in unless they are dangerous, which is usually how recovery begins)
Yes, and our opioid situation is just super, nothing to see here!
This was written in 2005. I feel this ship has so sailed at this point. I would love to go back to the world where I had the bandwidth to waste on framework hating.

Now days, Framework's mutant offspring ad-order-of-magnitue-larger, Platforms, is what I cope with. Why I Hate Platforms would be the same general rant writ large.
There's the theory that a significant reason why mammals superseded reptiles after the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) mass-extinction event is because the cooler, darker planet prevented reptiles from sunning themselves to clear fungal infections. One of the major reasons cold-blooded animals bask on warm rocks in the sun is to artificially induce a 'fever' to raise their body temperature high enough to break down proteins in fungal infections. Warm-blooded mammals had the ability to do that naturally, even during the very long winter after the K-T event. [0]

Yet, increasing global temperatures have been naturally selecting fungi which can survive at higher temperatures... and the average human body temperature has been decreasing in the developed world [1].

just unlocking the phone and starting an app takes waaaaay to much time. You have 10 people standing there looking at you for 3 minutes. Then bill the customer 25 for opening an app??? Better write things on paper.
Having been down this path before, my experience is that you have nothing to worry about.

I did have it come up once on a background check after accepting a job offer, because I had listed my startup on my résumé (but it no longer existed). The background check company asked for incorporation papers or a business license in lieu of paystubs, and was satisfied when I provided them.

A city or county business license is typically under $100/year and can be obtained as a sole proprietor if you're not yet ready to form a corporation or LLC but want a paper trail of when you started the company.
Fairly recently I built a C library for object serialization, based on run-time reflection. Run-time reflection is not necessary to the task and makes it perform worse than a code-generating solution.

The run-time reflection approach is good in one way: it doesn't add tooling to the project. All the modules that use serialization have to make a bunch of tedious API calls to build the type object which represents the C structure. This is created once and stashed in a global variable. Then it is used as a parameter when serializing and deserializing.

There is a performance impact because the marshaling code is interpreting the type object; it recursively walks the type object, and in parallel it walks the C object to extract or stuff material.

A generative approach would just write a serialization and deserialization stub. There would be no need for any type object to be walked at run-time. No need to construct such objects at startup and no need to carry the library for that.

But there would be some tool which itself has to be compiled (for the build machine, not the embedded targets), and then some Makefile steps to run that tool on some interface files. The thought of inflicting that one the project made me go yuck.

A third possibility is to have the run-time type info objects, and add JIT. Why do something easy, like a code generation tool called out of Makefile, when you can do something hard and nonportable?
Ok, what if you do a database back up daily and someone requests you to delete their information. You're telling me you go through all those back ups and delete that person's information? If you don't you aren't complying with GDPR.

It's constant with respect to the number of elements, just not the maximum magnitude of those elements.
