Much less likely, and guaranteed to be with some not-unsubstantial severance. Non-RIF layoffs (aka 'firing') comes with months or years of warnings.

There are many things LLMs might be able to do, today or in the future, but the single task they are unambiguously capable of doing is generating text that is statistically indistinguishable from their training corpus. The endgame given the technology which presently exists is that spam generation methods will be more robust and effective than spam filtering methods, and I am not convinced that fundamentally better filtering methods are inevitable.

> As a Go programmer I always thought the generics complaint was kind of silly in practice — complicated code should be simplified and made more concrete, not more generic.

I guess you have never written a library. It's extremely useful there, stuff like "generic function that runs a channel thru X workers doing f() on it" is now easily possible with full type safety.

> Nevertheless I think people implementing them in their own projects is basically code smell and they are a symptom of poorly thought-out code rather than excellent code.

You can say that about literally any feature used by the incompetent.

But overall yes, they are far more useful for writing libraries than actual applications

You're right, but probably not for the reason you think you are. Harvard is not your typical university. It's more of a hedge fund with a school attached to it. So is the rest of the Ivy League.

Making connections is maybe the single most important thing you will do at college. The faculty, the other students, and the alumni network, are part of those connections.

However, this sounds a little like a post hoc rationalization from a legacy person, tbh.
For what it's worth, the alumnus I met had me come to some sort of gaming convention he was attending, i.e. it was pretty casual. I would think the more obvious criticism of using that network to interview candidates is it's a game of luck having a personality match - but then I suppose they hope by having historically got it enough 'right' it converges/is fairly steady state on the sort of person they want anyway.
The links are all just https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=########. It's obvious they refer to some content on HN, but it could be comments, replies to comments, etc.

By adding a small bit of human text, the human doesn't have to ponder the list and wonder what they will get if they click a link.

And if there were human text, someone arriving by way of the parent comment link would have an easy time understanding the context without having to scan a lot of characters and make assumptions.

We do consider sentry a competitor. There's a small bug on our site where our competitor page isn't rendering (taking a look).

There's a few reasons why someone would use us over Sentry. First is that our session replay product is much more robust imo, though they are working quickly in that space: https://www.highlight.io/docs/general/product-features/sessi...

Secondly, we have a logging product: https://www.highlight.io/docs/general/product-features/loggi...

And lastly, we prefer to keep our product simple and very opinionated. Most of our customers are using common frameworks and we're specifically focused on web. Long term, we see ourselves going in the direction of Datadog, building out a metrics and tracing product over the next 6 months or so.

I did that MIT alumni interview in the mid-80s, so it's been a thing for them for at least that long. I still remember the big house in a pricey neighborhood and the interviewer. It seemed pretty free ranging, so it seems likely it was a "gut feel" on the interviewers part. I'm curious what their guidelines from MIT were.
a, err := f()
if err != nil {
return
}
a, err = f()

This will compile.
Word for those who'd like to pre-order as well - Create your account _before_ ordering. Perhaps this was just a one-off issue I had, but I tried setting up an account whilst ordering, as the website suggested, and it erred, charging my card but not sending me any receipt or creating any account, AFAICT. It may be that it's just a fluke, but you may as well be cautious.

Robbed-bit signalling was largely responsible for why voice circuits had a 56Kbps limit. The FCC's regs regarding crosstalk further limited real-world throughput to roughly 53Kbps.

Leased point-to-point DS0 circuits could do a full 64KBps if the whole circuit was 8-bit clean.
Rents are negotiated for a fixed period of time and are not necessarily increased to the market rate every year, hence the current price being paid being a lagging indicator of market prices.

If you were tracking the inflation of banana prices and the market price for bananas went up 10% year over year, does someone having a fixed price contract from a year ago affect the actual inflation of banana prices?
One side of the aisle is disorganized and unwilling in most cases to buck the status quo. The other side sees any kind of public utility as stealing this resource from the private market where capitalists would a) derive a profit, and b) ensure efficient distribution and use of the resource through competition and market forces.

So it is rare to see any sort of socialized program, resource, or utility in America even if it makes perfect sense, but, as in most cases, it is largely incompetence not evil intent.
GPU constraints. Time spent serving an API is time not spent training new models (for publishing or R&D).
The Admiralty version of this British method (old pattern) was different only in its more restricted scope. The Board of Admirals were unimpressed by titled relatives as such. What they sought to establish was a service connection. The ideal candidate would reply to the second question, “Yes, Admiral Parker is my uncle. My father is Captain Foley, my grandfather Commodore Foley. My mother’s father was Admiral Hardy. Commander Hardy is my uncle. My eldest brother is a Lieutenant in the Royal Marines, my next brother is a cadet at Dartmouth and my younger brother wears a sailor suit.”

“Ah!” the senior Admiral would say. “And what made you think of joining the Navy?” The answer to this question, however, would scarcely matter, the clerk present having already noted the candidate as acceptable. Given a choice between two candidates, both equally acceptable by birth, a member of the Board would ask suddenly, “What was the number of the taxi you came in?”

The candidate who said “I came by bus” was then thrown out. The candidate who said, truthfully, “I don’t know,” was rejected, and the candidate who said “Number 2351” (lying) was promptly admitted to the service as a boy with initiative. This method often produced excellent results.
Fair enough. If you're working on something like that, absolutely go with a different server than TypeScript! But it's still weird to insist that TypeScript has no valid applications when long-running processes that aren't direct responses to users are the exception and not the norm.

When I've run into specific cases in TypeScript projects that require that, I've tended to just spin up a new long-running service for those requirements.
I credit this more than anything for the success of Ruby. Just like I credit the 'holier than thou' attitude of the proponents of some other languages for their relative lack of success compared to where they could have been by now.

>You're being downvoted because you are attempting to mislead with statistics.

How?[0]

Your implication is that 100% of deaths are preventable and the 2% of those deaths that are car accidents are therefore unimportant? It's inherently misleading to look at deaths as a % vs. absolute figures (since we all die eventually).

People have to die from disease, it's the human condition. People do not have to die in car accidents (or suicides, we should prevent those too, but that's not really a hobby/activity).

The other way in which equating heart disease death with car accident death (or suicide death!) is extremely misleading is that the heart disease victim age chart does not look like this [1] even remotely. People lose a lot of years of life to car crashes.

I’ve got a Zenbook flip 13 OLED. I don’t worry about any of that suspend/hibernate stuff. It turns off the screen and, I’m pretty sure, the wireless interface when I close the lid. I think this is mostly Ubuntu default behavior, although I did some customization when I first got it.

Sitting idle, I get an estimate of ~12 hours of battery left right now (starting with 80%). This is why I don’t worry about hibernate; idle power consumption is low enough on modern hardware.

When I actually start working, it depends on what I’m doing; actively using wifi seems to bring me down to more like 5 hours remaining. I’m sure I could burn through the battery by cranking up the CPU, but the, it isn’t like Windows will somehow make the CPU consume less power in C0.
When I knew the MIT admissions director many years ago, he said they had an X-Y chart with academics on one axis and other achievements/soft factors on the other. There was basically a minimum academic cutoff and above that cutoff you could basically tradeoff academics for other criteria.
Appreciate the kind note.
Oh yes, I too would much rather watch the theater from home on TV...
I think this is a really key thing to take into account when choosing where to work. Where I am now I report directly to one of the founders, and I'm one step removed from the CEO, that means there's approximately zero ceremony around tracking achievements and value added. The same was true in other small companies I've worked for.

The ceremony starts to be introduced when people become further removed from those who are ultimately responsible. In my previous job there was a whole process, company wide, to ensure everyone got properly ranked based on performance and potential. As a management team we'd spend half a day every six months just going through this process, which was preceded by everyone in the company doing a self-assessment that would then be reviewed by your manager. It was all incredibly tedious.

Some people thrive in an environment where what you're doing is driven by whatever currently seems the most important, and value is apparent just from everyone knowing what's going on. Others want more structure to things, and a clear path to get from where they are to where they want to be. I don't see either as being invalid.
Oh no! I've been drinking Zevia daily for almost a year now and it 100% replaces conventional HFCS soda for me. We haven't had Coke in the house since we discovered Whole Foods sells 12-pack cases of Zevia in all flavors. My favorites are cherry cola and Dr. Zevia, with cream soda and root beer very close behind.

Some flavors are caffeinated, others non-caffeinated, and I'm just as subject to caffeine addiction as I am to sugar, so the option to keep some of the spice flowing is nice.

The only flavor that didn't cut it was the mtn dew flavor, can't really replicate that particular beverage without all the bad ingredients so it fell a bit flat.

The other drink that's good are the carbonated sucralose drinks in the tall plastic containers. They sell under a few brands, most often Sparkling Ice or Sparkling Frost.

There is also powdered and liquid drink additive, sold as Stur (stevia), PurAqua (sucralose), and True Lemon (cane sugar + stevia) - no carbonation here, but fine in a pinch.

Hydration comes into play. I drink a lot of this stuff figuring hey, the first ingredient is water, so I probably don't need to drink as much water, right? But my lips still get chapped if I don't have at least one glass of pure water a day.

Nice catch, ExtraRoulette! You're the first to notice.

This project is new. My plan was to write a "comic generator", where I would just input parameters and it would generate the comics.

It worked even better than I expected. In the last 6 months, it has generated 2700 comics from my inputs.

Then I realized that if I launched 7/1/23, it would take 10 years just to post what I already had, even at one per day.

So I just reset my start date from 1/1/23 to 1/1/14. I wanted to launch with a lot of content so people could explore.

I also wanted the site to be evergreen which is why I try not to dig too deep into specific technologies. But COVID was obviously too big to ignore.

I sorted my backlog a few weeks ago based on many factors, but I guess 344 slipped through the cracks. I think I'll leave it there to see if anyone else notices.

There is no relationship between your billing increment and the specific times you're at your desk. You bill a day for any day that you do significant work for the client; that's it. The notion that billing a day means you've booked 8 contiguous desk hours for your client is just hourly billing thinking; that's part of the reason you want to stop billing hourly in the first place.

Wouldn't we expect ecosystems to tolerate low level radiation. Even among humans, the concern is long term cancer risk. It is a feat of modern society that humans routinely live long enough for cancer to be a major concern. Most wildlife would probably be dead long before the radiation can kill them.

Not sure how this applies to life like trees. I assume that they are more resilient to radiation in general, as they can live indefinitely, whereas humans seem to have finite time before cancer becomes inevitable.

Sure - well, my wife is from the North East so her parents are problematic from a travel point of view, and definitely worse now given that we don't have easy access to trains / airports now. We've mitigated this by having them come to stay for longer periods of time so it's good that I get on with them :-)

We didn't have any friends at all down here when we first moved. The village was extremely welcoming, and in large part (as ever) the kids going to (a small and friendly) school massively helped to build some initial connections, many of which continue to this day.

We now have a really nice circle - people round these parts are very much not obsessed with work in the way we've found with other places we've lived, which is a bonus for us. Lots of variety in what people do with their leisure time, lots of home workers, and in general people seem more relaxed.

Massive downside about our particular part of the world is the terrible lack of diversity. We also miss bits of city culture and have to travel now to go get our culture / food / music - but we find we can sort of "top up" on a monthly basis and then run back to the sea feeling refreshed :-)

Yes, the libel laws have been especially helpful in allowing despots and oligarchs to move their wealth into the country and build contacts with No. 10 while suing journalists reporting on it.

>The US death rate is 1.04% per year. So in that sporting event example, statistically 313 of them will die within a year's time.

Yeah but only some of those deaths are randomly distributed across the population and not correlated with age. Car accidents being a major example of that (unless there's a bunch of 70+ year olds at Yankees games that I'm not seeing).

Not just networking but focusing on concurrency.

In before if you needed to make a highly concurrent network app you had to get into asynchronous programming that generally makes code looks shit (or at least slightly worse) and harder to debug.

With Go and goroutines taking IIRC around 8k for start you can "just" spawn as many of them as there are connections and write your code as if it was serial one. Add some half-decent concurrency primitives and it's pretty easy to not fuck up highly concurrent and highly parallel code.
