I lead a small R&D team in Materialise's Kyiv office. Due to very demanding requirements (we need someone who can do math, write code, and communicate with other people reasonably well, often at the same time), I usually have to read somewhere between 50 to 100 resumes per hire. And one thing is absolutely certain - there is an inverse correlation between the quality of the resume and the quality of the candidate.

People in high demand don't have, nor should they have, the skill to write resumes. That's the skill that people who can't get a job naturally develop.

The other thing, a bad resume often protects you from bad employers. Take this passage from the post: "When candidates first started (obviously) using AI for their applications, I would rule them out for “cheating”" - that's... incredibly stupid. You don't want to work for or with stupid people so I think all the ruled-out people dodged a bullet here.

One reason I joined Materialise was that the recruiter used my LinkedIn profile at the interview instead of asking for a resume. Didn't waste their own time, didn't waste mine. That's smart. I want to work with smart people. I'm in.
Oh my I totally forgot about sandbox-exec!

I played with it some time ago, can't recall the context but it was about build systems / packaging (maybe nix?), doing the configure/make/make install with reduced privileges.
It's not obvious that there are any actual sources you are willing to consider, but here's a try: https://www.reddit.com/r/history/comments/8uatt5/how_importa...

for example:

> Lend-Lease trucks were particularly important to the Red Army, which was notoriously deficient in such equipment. By the end of the war, two out of every three Red Army trucks were foreign-built, including 409,000 cargo trucks and 47,000 Willys Jeeps. [Note, Glantz's 2/3 stat is a higher ratio than Ellis indicates, but Ellis still points to 2:1 import/production, and regardless there may be other caveats in play]

The shipment of finished trucks, planes and tanks was very important in the early years of the war, and forced a stalemate in early battles (we both know, that Moscow was about a hair from being captured). Yes, the material aid became relatively less significant as Soviet production ramped up, but that wouldn't have happened if the USSR had collapsed in 1942 or 1943.

Oh lol I almost missed this gem.

> The only difference, they left China afterward, while the USA army stayed in Europe as an occupying force

Absolutely incredible to describe the US forces in Europe as "occupying" and not mention what the Soviets did.

Yeah I think we're done here.
Calling it “a miss” implies an objective truth, saying you disagree with something shows that’s just your opinion. Second one is more honest.
YT music is good for discovering new music, but otherwise pretty shit compared to Google Play Music (and I doubt it will be any better for Podcasts)
You're taking a distinct philosophical stance, but you're also being unnecessarily dismissive by claiming other stances "miss the point".

Math is nothing like a map -- maps are approximations of something real and they don't have any kind of internal consistency or complexity.

But there's a good argument that math is the fundamental nature of the universe, and mathematical discoveries lead to predictions of real-world behavior. While maps don't predict a thing.

The philosophical discussion isn't around whether math is useful for tracing the arc of a ball in the air, for which it always will be merely a useful approximation. It's more around math as the language of the universe, in things like quantum physics -- there's no "approximation" here, it's more the nature of reality itself.

And here, the philosophical questions around whether our descriptions of quantum physics are "invented" or "discovered" go quite deep, and necessarily involve the nature of human knowledge itself. For many people, these don't "miss the point" at all -- they're some of the deepest, most profoundly meaningful questions that exist.
You really need Maps to figure out where your gate is at the airport? Honestly?
All ideas are discoveries, not creations. The fact that anybody else can come up with the same idea lends credence to this. That's how ideas work - they are transcendental.
I think it reinforces the perspective that Israel is a rogue state.
There's hundreds of alternatives... I've used Pocket Casts and Podcast Addict and both work fine.
Apple exec Eddy Cue set to testify in Google trial about $19B search deal
I tried to translate this headline from the Guardian to Italian:
"Ursula von der Leyen praises watered-down vehicle emissions compromise"

Firefox translation is wrong:
"Ursula von der Leyen elogia il compromesso sulle emissioni dei veicoli annacquati"

It is the compronise that is "watered-down" not the vehicles.

Google translation is better:
"Ursula von der Leyen elogia il compromesso annacquato sulle emissioni dei veicoli"

Both Deepl and Papageo don't translate "watered-down" and it could make sense, since "watered-down" can be considered redundant.
Show HN: AI Voice Translation by Spotify and OpenAI to Translate Podcasts
> The infographic above and others clearly claim that ISPs will be blocking services then requiring you to pay for them separately.

Exempting your own and partner services from a data cap that effectively limits use of other services is functionally the same thing, but with only one package available that is mandatory for purchase.

> Exempting services from data caps is not against net neutrality,

IIRC, it would have on generally violated the most recent set of US net neutrality regulations and violates the broad principles articulated for net neutrality, whether or not it violates specific regulatory franeworks existing in Europe.
My wife’s Intel-based laptop got considerably slower in the last year or so. I tried everything I could but nothing seemed to return it to its original performance.

Then she got a warning that the battery needed servicing. After getting it replaced (and the Apple employee warning us several times that it might not help performance), the laptop was back to its previous state. My theory is that the battery running warmer was causing the CPU to throttle. Or perhaps cleaning out the machine while replacing the battery helped it thermally. Or maybe both.
Feynman has some useful words about this phenomenon of always wanting to dig deeper: https://youtu.be/36GT2zI8lVA?si=Boiqod3GXHVMyE_s
And boo, incidentally, to whomever changed the HN title - from the most memorably evocative title this site has ever seen to one of the blandest.
That’s fair, the article has a very valid point, which would be made even stronger without the misreading of the plots they’re critiquing, whether it was accidental or intentional. I always thought Ngrams were weird too, I remember in the past thinking some of the dramatic shifts it shows were unlikely.
Yes, you can also choose in Germany.

Of course, it you don’t pay VAT, your big clients cannot get a rebate, because no VAT was paid!

It seems like in Japan, small businesses could avoid paying VAT, and their clients would STILL get a VAT rebate!

I can see why the Japanese Gov is trying to change that.
I'm not necessarily super surprised, the uptake on Google Podcasts always seemed very low.
Rule 34(b)
Does this mean that people who are paying for subscriptions to Youtube Music so they can listen to music will now be flooded with recommendations and ads for podcasts, just like on Spotify?
The point of Asahi is to provide linux drivers for Apple hardware. What would be the point? You can already run Linux in a VM on arm macOS today with good performances. You don't even need to disable SIP.
I've long since assummed that Quora isn't big on being a factual Q&A site anymore, or they'd have already eliminated the meme spam

I stopped really using Quora because my feed has literally just become meme image responses with increasingly low quality to "What's a post that will get 5156.7 upvotes?", and the ocasional interesting paywalled answer

Siderant: Quora is one of the 2 sites that have soured me on multiligual UX (The other one being YouTube); No, I don't want a bad AI translation of content you already know I can read, Stop asking (Quora) and at least ask me (YouTube)

To within an order of magnitude that’s probably true. Local llm use is a rounding error at present and likely to remain so outside of specialised application s like scanning. For child porn on your mobile, which you still have no control over.

I believe Google actively, aggressively tries to downlevel people so that I can pay them less. And then move promo cycle to be as long as possible, also to suppress wages
For me, Spotify on Mobile has a sleep timer functionality and one of the options of "End of episode". I do have premium so cannot confirm if it exists on the free tier.

TIL Google had a podcasts app
> In addition, Google will also support the option to download an OPML file of their show subscriptions from Google Podcasts, which they can upload to any app that supports importing if they don’t want to move to YouTube Music.
Usually either that, or they have a policy of closing bugs that are "too old" with no attempt to reproduce or otherwise follow up.
Might a Kessler belt of known quantities eliminate or make harder launch from some areas more than others? (Essentially a space shield?)

The Kessler Syndrome is a phenomenon in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit increases due to space pollution, causing collisions between objects to generate more space debris, increasing the likelihood of further collisions.

None of your points appear insurmountable or showstoppers to me, to be honest, but they would require approaches to mitigate them.

Remember kids, never build anything onto Google.
Yeah, because them adding podcast functionality is going to happen in the future. They haven't done it yet, that's what that means.
Given the choice between:

- massive anti-trust lawsuit

- paying $450 million / year to Mozilla

- you using Chrome

- you using FireFox

It is very well possible that the preferred boxes to tick include you using Chrome and paying $450 million / year to Mozilla to recoup some of that money. Chrome is one of the more powerful planks in Google's control over the web, without Chrome they'd be fighting a continuous rearguard action, now they get to be the dictators. Think of the $450 million as a license to operate. Any users that end up using the product created using that $450 million are additional loss.
Why did Google fail to turn "simple" apps like Google Podcasts and Google Reader into low maintenance apps?

Google Podcasts is so simple it could even have been an open source reference app showcasing Flutter and some backend GCP services.
> I like to ask a guy his sign, test the waters, and see how he reacts. Honestly, I do not have time to deal with someone who has dramatic reactions to the mention of a harmless, “girlish” thing that interests me.

Methinks the author wouldn't do the same if their 'guy' in question started spouting conspiracy theories or flat-earth propaganda. Would she be able to restrain her dramatic reaction to harmless male fantasy then?
Naively speaking, but if it's the same price as an hotel, that just means there's enough demand for AirBnBs to push prices up to equality, no? Isn't that good for AirBnB? Sure it probably means it doesn't make sense for say, busy business travellers, but there's people who want AirBnBs.

It seems that in Japan, customers of small businesses could claim the VAT back even though the small business did not pay VAT.

I'd describe it as being a mashup of voting machine development with game design. Gambling is a form of entertainment for most people who do it. When they go to a casino they vote with their dollars on which games they find entertaining. But we can't send our games directly to players, we sell to casinos. And every single one gets tested and approved by and independent regulatory board whose rules create a lot of boundaries/limits on how creative our designs can be.

And the mathematician part is exactly like being a "fun accountant" for the game. We set your fun budget and make sure the player (randomly, on average) never exceeds it.
I'm pretty happy with _Podcast Republic_ on Android. Its a bit of a "power user" app, but I have yet to find something that I want to tweak that it doesn't let me tweak via its vast settings menus.
"Reasonableness and fairness" are for employers to judge, not some 3rd party. Employers can better weigh the productivity differential, if any, of office vs. WFH against employee retention.

'The bill would have made it easier for employees to make agreements with their employers about working from home.

The “Work where you want” (“Wet werken waar je wilt”) bill would have meant that employers could not simply reject a request to work from another location, except for reasons grounded in “reasonableness and fairness.”'
Control center is one of the worst parts of my macOS usage. It keeps taking seconds to (abruptly) show up and on my multi-monitor system it sometimes shows up between corners or on the opposite site of the monitor I activated it on.

I wish it could be disabled and the controls put into the menu bar, but infuriatingly you can't.
> Are the above commenters saying Tiktokers are stupid, or moms are stupid, or that the combo is stupid?

I'm arguing you shouldn't hire a plumber when you're needing to fix a car, you shouldn't hire a limo driver to fly a jet airliner, you shouldn't trust a chef for what kind fertilizer you should use on your plants.

I'm not arguing all Tik Tokers are stupid. I'm not arguing all moms are stupid. I am arguing maybe they're not the best place to base your trust on efficacy of vaccines. Maybe the best place to get feedback on what kinds of toys seem to hold kids attention or strategies on getting your kids to eat vegetables, but probably not the best person to ask how to get a satellite into orbit.

A big problem is people end up building trust around these personalities and start trusting their input on topics they've got no real experience in other than maybe some personal ancedotes.

And I totally agree, someone can absolutely still be an idiot even with letters at the end of their name. One shouldn't just trust the messenger entirely, it should really only be a starting signal to help the signal to noise ratio.

Please raise your hands, who is surprised?
It's astonishing the strategy that Google follows with their products. This trend of releasing stuff and cancelling it later is reaching the point of being meme. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand that markets are hard to predict and compete in and offering a competent product at those sizes requires a lot of economic and human effort but for god sake, I seriously think they should plan better and think twice because this is seriously damaging their image.
Thanks for clarifying. Many people (including other commenters) wonder how people manage to transition from open source project to a profitable company. I think the blogpost would have been much better with this extra background information. Normally, when people read stories about bootstrapping they assume the original founder(s) retain all the equity, but in this case Ben had to sell a 50% stake in his business in order to survive.
Or the overheads for communication between the row and column services, the latter being spun up dynamically based on the column count.

Older people have had a chance to sample and even deep dive into several disciplines. Assuming they've done that, with open minds to seeing cross-connections, they should be better cross-pollinators. And cross-pollination seems to be the key to most real innovation (as opposed to branding the old thing as new again).

Innovation is more than ideas, though. Ideas are cheap. Execution is everything.

And the average age of successful founders is 45:

The autoplay is extra annoying when listening to an older episode too. When you go to the full list it automatically jumps to the one last played. Scrolling long lists in Spotify is very buggy.

The only way to fix it is mark the newly-started episode as played, then mark as unplayed. So many extra steps that shouldn’t even be necessary in the first place.
It's true and it's not illegal. (at least in the US) Mark Rober did a couple videos on YouTube about arcade scams. (there are many) They are highly entertaining and depressing at the same time.
As far as the android app goes I disagree. While there are minor improvements, there are major steps backwards in offline playing, library management and account management. An entirely frustrating experience trying to use the app.

I'm somewhat dubious on the idea that their Cricket More plan is actually unlimited, but I'm pressed for time and can't read their more dense terms of service around the plan, but I'm assuming they have a congestion clause buried in there, despite what the linked FAQ claims

I get that different products would be pretty siloed within their corporate structure, so I know that they weren't just going to use the YouTube code. However, why are products that are released well after plenty of other apps have forged a path so that the new app can research what works and doesn't work, what do people like/not like, and all of that type of basic information just so abysmally ignored so that this "new" thing is so inferior?

If you're not the first pioneering version of something, you better be doing everything the others are doing, but better. Otherwise, what's the point of your product?
What was it? I arrived too late.
Art is separate from economics. It has existed before there were markets or even complex societies. Also, the amount of effort is not what determines art. However, I think art requires one to be the actor in the process that generates the work. The big issue I have with AI art is that you could have very clear image in mind that you wish to generate, and spend lots of time tweaking your prompt to the model, but you will never get the image you had in mind, because there is disconnect between you and the machine. Your imagination doesn't extend across the screen.
LOTS of webstores look just like that.
For people with mobility challenges, or those with communication challenges, being able to look at a map of the airport and plan in advance is useful.
You are being downvoted but I think there's some truth. I'd like to see counter arguments. One that I can think of is the difference in intent. Tether is for profit and the FED is to stabilize the economy.
T-Mobile USA has a pretty user friendly version of this on many/most of its plans.

If a music streaming service participates to label its traffic, that data is zero rated for eligible users.

If a video streaming service participates to label its traffic and limit bandwidth (advertising says 480p, but I think it's really a bitrate cap), then data is zero rated for eligible users. On plans with a high speed data cap, users can opt out of the bandwidth limiting and get potentially higher quality streaming (depending on network conditions) but the data usage will be charged against the cap.

There's no charge for providers to participate.

I don't know how zero-rating music streaming helps with spectrum; that's probably more of an inducement to use data, but music streaming is low bandwidth, and maybe there's some magic to accumulate those packets and send as a batch rather than one at a time and therefore save some framing bandwidth.

For video it's clearly a bandwidth thing. If you can reduce to the target, that's good for their spectrum management, so you get a carrot. Also, it encourages bandwidth sensitive streaming (which many services were already doing), so that if the conditions are poor for a particular user/cell, video bandwidth will be responsive and reduce automatically.

A good option for power users, probably a bit overwhelming if you just want something simple, but for someone like me that wants to do stuff like different default playback speeds for different podcasts, it's really good.
What I'm getting from this is that I will be hearing many more ads, and be unable to listen to podcasts if my screen is off or if I switch to any other apps on my phone.
This is precisely why slot machines are one of the most heavily regulated consumer devices in existence. They simply cannot and will not ever be fair otherwise. Mobile gambling (including "loot boxes") is just another regulatory capture play like AirBnB and Uber.
