> Don't kid yourself into drawing comparisons with your situation and miniscule in comparison compensation.

There are two ways to read my comment.

One as explaining CEO salaries.

The other as actionable career advice for negotiating your own salary.

I've used this insight to nearly 5x my salary.

That salary was not minuscule to me.
You can create json and sql string template processors that suffer from no injection problems. I'd call that a large improvement over, for example, Javascript. But I'm not familiar enough with the string template feature in the other languages to comment on their relative security.
It's absolutely true, especially compared to places like Japan that have incredible food, stellar service, yet crazy high costs of living -- all for no tips.

The US system is just so broken in so many ways.

But as everyday individuals, what are you gonna do? Our democracy isn't really functional and a normal person has zero say in policies.

If you don't tip, the system won't change. The person working there will just go home with less money. They're already making much much less than us, even if all their customers tipped 30%.

Some restaurant owners have taken away tips altogether, opting for an across the board wage increase. Of course that means their items are all priced higher in the menu.

It's just a no win situation.
No one offers free long-term support. The free "long-term support" releases merely backport some fixes from the mainline to the old release, so only the intersection between the old version and the newest one is maintained in free distributions. A real LTS service includes original bug fixes. If you want the entire JDK to be maintained you have to either use the current version (completely free) or pay someone for a proper LTS service. The LTS service that Oracle offers is how OpenJDK is funded.

Hey @njaremko,

Thank you for using Graphite and your support.
This is something we're aware of and current thinking around.

Question, if we were to support this by signing commits:
Would you want the commit to be signed by the Graphite GitHub App?
Or would you prefer for it to be signed by Graphite on behalf of you?
Or some other option that we haven't considered?

Everybody should have access to all modes of transportation that are sustainable and comfortable to them and the people around them. Transportation should be accessible. Period.

Be it high speed rail, car, bus, e-bike, e-scooter, etc. As long as what you are doing is safe, and you're not harming yourself or other people, you should be able to use whatever the hell kind of gadget you want to in order to get to the places you need to go. You shouldn't have police coming up to you telling you what you can and cannot put on the road because the laws are ancient and stagnant - and only get changed if there is a profit incentive.

You shouldn't have to worry about getting run off the road/sidewalk/crosswalk because the people who planned/make the roads think it's a good thing to build thin, one-lane on each side, roads, with no bike lane, with no shoulder or a very small shoulder, with poorly-maintained sidewalks, etc.

We really need to rethink how roads should work, how traffic lights should work, suggest speeds instead of set limits, and update our infrastructure. And standardize, standardize, standardize.

And specifically, here in the US, we need to change to the metric system, like the rest of the world. But that probably will never happen.

transformers are GNNs where all nodes are connected to all nodes (well in the decoder you have masks but you see my point).

If the problem is that the graph is not sparse enough / not a graph at all, adding more connections doesn't help.

edit: Why doesn't it help? They address this in the paper. 1. There is computational infeasiability problem. 2. The transformer decoder can't be a regular graph if you include masking.
> Tesla's system requires less supervision than other manufacturers.

> I need to remain mindful of the system at all times

> and it really will function autonomously

To me this is a contraction. It's said to be both autonomously and to also require constant supervision. And that's why I think it's marketed incorrectly despite it being an interesting piece of technology.
Yes. It was just a dumb joke :/
I didn't mean that = to be transitive. All async is IO, but obviously some IO is not async.

> We will never avoid the complexity of IO, but we can avoid the complexity of async

Because we can never avoid the complexity of IO, having a language construct that makes it obvious when you're using IO is valuable. IO code is different in kind than non-IO code, and having it explicitly marked helps keep the mess that is IO from propagating its problems throughout the rest of your code.
I'm from Europe but lived in Singapore for 10 years and worked with people from all over.

There were a lot of names that surprised me, like the occasional man with a female name. One was named Wendy, the other one I forgot. I think he was from the Philippines, or maybe Malaysia. Many Asian languages don't have male/female names, so when the parents want to pick a western name for their newborn they don't always consider the gender (maybe that has changed nowadays).

Another thing I had not come across before is fake western names. The parents want to give the kid a name that sounds western but don't want to limit themselves to the standard catalogue of names, so instead they pick two names and combine them, or one name and rearrange the letters. So you get folks named Danold, Stevid and so on.
> The alternative, as we've seen with other manufacturers, is that they just won't have FSD. They'll call it that,

1) no one else calls it FSD or anything like that. Every other car manufacturer with driver assistance tech calls it what it is.

2) other manufacturers define safe constraints on their tech and then enforce those constraints

> , but they'll make you keep your hand on the wheel and your eyes on the road -- which isn't FSD at all.

> It is not a nice thing to do, and really mean if shared in public, but the types of measures it would take to stop it are incompatible with a free society.

terminally uncreative take. I'm actually curious what you mean by free society tho because clearly we are not totally without rules and taboos, what are we free to do and where do we draw the line?

imo deepfakes are not that different from revenge porn, it is an image of you being shared without your consent. doesn't matter that it's 90% synthesized, your image was used in a way designed to hurt you or at least your reputation. we have laws about libel and slander, where's the incompatibility?
I was trying to think of how to word what has been accomplished (and finished, as far as the website is concerned) and was having a hard time of it, but your idea to just flip the whole thing on its head and say “warning: you’re not done” is just so elegant in its simplicity. Well done (pun intended)!
They also still talk about Jack the Ripper. I couldn't imagine a worse metric than "starts a conversation". The Mona Lisa started far more conversations after it was stolen - did getting stolen make it better art?

But if the alleged artists taping bananas to walls tell us that's the measure to judge art by, who am I to question their wisdom?
> your pronoun if you didn't make it obvious by your attire

This is still a minefield, especially among teenagers and very young adults who latch on to any opportunity to assert their individuality. I have met more than one man who wears female clothing and cosmetics and adopts female mannerisms, yet still insists that he is non-binary or a “non-binary male” and so his pronouns will be “he” or “they”, and you might get chewed out for using the wrong pronoun.

Do what everyone else does: get a job and build what you want in your spare time.

There's also a few websites that list people trying to sell their small lifestyle projects. You might want to pick one up and see if it works for you.

Even if you have no actual customers, you at least should have an idea of what problem you're trying to solve. Then search for that problem and see what's out there. If there are companies that are already doing it that's probably a good thing, because that means that someone has validated the market.

Well, how much money can you save by efficient rounding? Surely not that much that anyone would bother. There's a thing called "Kaufmännisches Runden", which is kind of cheating as well.

> But yes, rounding does happen a lot – what's important is that everybody uses the same, transparent rules for that, or it becomes impossible to double-check somebody's books, tax declaration, invoice etc.

They don't, that's why it doesn't matter that much ;)

"that kind of technology"

I have a feeling you're going to have a problem with any kind of "general" technology in the future. Or, lets change the initial premise this this Heinlein quote

>"Specialization is for insects," the science fiction author Robert A. Heinlein famously wrote. "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly."

The thing is with a generalized image creation software is it will do things you won't like. Be that representation of minors, or offending your king/glorious leader, religious sacrilege, or whatever it is you don't like.

Generalized software, much like humans, is capable of heresy.

I would assume the reason is not a legal one, but a cultural one, i.e. having a very obviously foreign name a few generations ago in the US might make you a target of discrimination. Changing something like "Alexei" to "Alex" would help you stand out less.
I have a coworker named Domas. It's pronounceable enough, but he uses Thomas (which is actually just a variation of the same name in some cultures) as his Starbucks name for...reasons.

So accountants are like number detectives doing what's essentially debugging work just like a coder would?
> I'm comfortable assuming the risk if there's a fuck-up.

Well, here's the rub. The risk is not just ours. It also involves others.

If said "fuck-up" is spilling some tomato sauce on the carpet, then sure, we can say "my bad," and take out our checkbook. It's fairly certain that the other person the risk exploded on, will accept our amends.

However, if it is running over a child, I don't think the checkbook thing will work.
> Any suggestions where to find data driven jobs?

My experiences suggest a large measure of caution. Many organizations describe themselves as data-driven and many actually do try. However humans are humans and many will be “data driven” when it aligns with what they want to do, otherwise it’s off for “more data” or a “new perspective”. In other words sometimes data driven means use data when it supports my already staked out position. I hate to be so cynical but I can’t help it.

> I agree, but I think deep fake type technology is neutral. Some technology isn't.

That's probably a valid argument, but you should elaborate. What does this particular technology bring to society that balances for deep fakes that can destroy someone's life?

Cryptography can protect people, which sounds like a good thing, but it can protect bad actors, which is a bad thing. One could debate it, but overall it feels like cryptography is useful in many cases. On the other hand, I feel like we would be better off without e.g. blockchain or without e.g. SpaceX making space flights affordable for businesses in a world where the climate crisis may soon destroy us.

What about deep fakes then? What good does it bring that would balance the bad use-cases?

Getting JDK from better sources won't risk you accidentally hitting the wrong download link and winding up with an enterprise licensing audit and a legal requirement to Java license for every employee.

I'd strongly recommend you don't download anything Java related from Oracle or have any direct relationship with Oracle at all. Java employees working for Oracle and their advice should be treated skeptically. Reporting issues to third parties and letting them contact Oracle's engineers is ideal (least of all because you need a support contract to report it directly to Oracle anyway).

Oracle is a bad actor and should be avoided for your own good. The only ones suggesting getting it from Oracle directly are also Oracle employees.

Ask HN: Resume Review?
Hi, would anyone be willing to give me some resume tips and feedback? I am not getting anything but rejections from job apps.

In particular, 2 specific things:

* Would it be better to change my title listed for Scripta from Cofounder to Software Engineer? I was technically the CEO, though I did a fair amount of coding alongside the CTO because we were both technical.

* Is it the lack of current employment that is hurting me? How much would it help if I was able to list my work for the Free Law Project as "consulting" or something, rather than open source?

ChatGPT summary:

This post discusses the events leading to mass layoffs at a company in 2023, divided into three parts:

Early Pandemic: The company faced challenges when the pandemic hit in March 2020. Leadership worried about productivity, resource allocation, and employee morale. Measures were taken to support remote work.

Hiring Boom of 2021-22: Strong sales led to optimistic growth projections, but some questioned their sustainability. Many tech companies engaged in aggressive hiring.

The Downfall: Factors like rising costs, advancements in AI (specifically OpenAI), and declining revenue, especially in PC and Xbox sales, prompted layoffs. The author criticizes the lack of empathy and transparency in leadership.

In conclusion, the post reflects disappointment in the company's leadership, particularly the CEO, citing previous issues and highlighting a perceived lack of empathy in the corporate world.

I haven't been following SimulaVR and do see the appeal of an all-in-one platform. The costs of quality and performance do add up and I can't justify to myself investing in it.

Sometimes it's hard to know which Asian culture an Asian is from and under what system they are presenting their name.

Async vs green threads doesn't alter the number of running threads available to you, it's simply a difference in how the runtime schedules your virtual threads on the limited number of real threads. Async/await is cooperatively scheduled, Java's virtual threads are preemptively scheduled.

Both can have similar performance characteristics, the difference is primarily one of ergonomics, and since that's subjective there are people who will argue fiercely for either side.
Given names are only used in Japan in informal settings between people you know well, like friends and family. Work, school, and general life would use surname + honorific. The honorific is not optional.

Stopping someone from physically harming someone else can come with severe -punishment- as a deterrent and is much more serious than sharing -any- type of data online. Stopping someone from making a digital parody of someone else gets closer to free speech territory and is a lot more complicated.

You can make it illegal or try to detect and restrict sharing it in popular apps because it hurts feelings, just like you can outlaw pictures of religious imagery because they hurt feelings, but neither can ever be effectively enforced in an internet that allows open source applications and anonymity. See: piracy.

Giving up the right to online anonymity is a non starter as it would make it impossible for journalists and dissidents to communicate freely which is a requirement for democracy to function.
