In my opinion tech internet loves to dunk on Jira as it's seen as the manifestation of all the problems of Scrum and Agile. It's a "thing" people can point to so it becomes Jira's fault.

People will nit pick over, sometimes justifiable, UI/UX issues with the product but the level of hatred you see can't be explained by that alone.

In reality the problem is with Scrum and Agile.
So buy a cheap ticket to the US to buy it and bring it back and it will still be less than double.

In my experience ray in AWS is a good way to badly utilize resources and
waste a lot of money

That pretty much sums up Autodesk's relationship with Amazon in its entirety. OTOH if operations isn't your core competency, it's still money well spent.

Edit: Before smashing the vote button I'd talk to someone at Autodesk about just how little oversight goes into their AWS usage and how chaotic the billing is.
I use Bing for porn. For reverse image search, I use Yandex. And for researching psychedelics and conspiracy(censored) topics - I use Brave Search.

I use Google only for vanilla search that shows I am a good citizen(navigation, online shopping, general research on movies and sports...etc). I don't want my search Identity to be fully profiled by Google. Police(and other bad actors like a hostile government) are more likely to access my data on Google than on other lesser know search engine.
> Designing neural net architectures seems like exactly the sort of problem that neural nets ought to beat humans at handily.

Is it? The “easy” tasks for neural nets to beat humans at are things that are harder for humans to do than for humans to provide volumes of high-quality training data by way of which neural nets can be trained.

It’s not clear to ne that designing neural nets really fits that.
Absolutely! Any game in C#, Java, or even C++ Unreal Engine games.

There's potential for abusing a sent request, but because most people won't accept them it basically removes the incentive to bother abusing it. It's at least much less abusive then calling people.
The testing for Linux will require a few more weeks of delay due to a BIOS issue.

"AMD Ryzen Powered Framework Laptop Linux Testing Held Up By BIOS Issue"

"Today the review embargo lifts on the first AMD-powered Framework laptop. There's one of the AMD Framework laptops in the lab for Linux testing and benchmarking but unfortunately no review for launch day due to being held up by a BIOS regression and thus unable to properly utilize accelerated graphics until a new BIOS revision is made available in the coming days."

"Long story short, in a week or two should be the Linux review and benchmarks for the new AMD Framework Laptop."

Not just engineers. My wife recently went through this. Application after application, each expecting a cover letter, as to why my wife is the ideal candidate, and how she would be a great fit in the company.

It's an absolute waste of time.

Then when you get through the first filter, you need to do x aptitude tests and a degrading personality test.

And only THEN, when you understand how those tests work and get to get a perfect score, then you might get an email to set up a phone call.

International contactless cards don’t work period - you need SUICA or PASMO for the metro. Buses outside of the cities are cash based.

I travelled in Hokkaido, Rishiri, Okinawa, Ishigaki, Iriomote etc. They simply did not take cards at all. Also true on small private train lines such as Kanazawa to Uchinada.
The front door of the unit requires a key to exit, which city inspectors say creates “a life safety issue.”

Because it’s better to not submit a cover letter than to submit something filled with generic AI generated garbage that doesn’t represent the real you.
Personally, as an employer, I completely disagree. I’d prefer to be written to as a human. A short email (as in, a paragraph or two) that an applicant writes themselves explaining why they’re a good fit speaks volumes.
They can't have PTSD from climate change.

Unless you want PTSD to just mean "uncomfort". In which case, everyone has PTSD. But then what does disorder mean if it's normal?

Know your audience. As the owner of a company with single digit employees, I put a fair amount of stock in a good cover letter. IE one that shows someone understands what they're applying to and why they might be a good fit. And that they're interested enough in this specific position to make a small effort beyond firing off a resume. I don't mind people submitting bad AI-written cover letters though. It's a clear signal that I can safely ignore the application.
1. What's wrong with pimping per se? Fundamentally, a pimp is an just an intermediary that finds clients for people who sell a service. How is it different from an agency? Yes, pimping can involve violence, but the reason why is that the victim is unlikely to report the violence, as it would require them to incriminate themselves.

2. Tobacco and alcohol are legal, yet you don't see people selling to kids. It happens from time to time to teenagers, but not to young children. The reason why is precisely that children don't have the mental faculties to understand the full scope of their decisions and therefore can't give informed consent.

3. If gambling is legal there's no need for it to be underground, it can just be out in the open. Where are you more likely to get scammed, in some clandestine gambling den, or in a licit casino?

4. A protection racket is clearly not consensual. "Give me money or I'll damage your property" doesn't require consent of the victim.
The real issue is that it was a poor job of law writers. Bug in the code, if you wish.

I have a similar Gen 4 machine, but in P14s form, and all is well with the exception of sleep and wake up. I'm hoping that gets addressed quickly with some BIOS and kernel updates.
Sam Harris is not a random scare-quoted "journalist".

He is a writer and podcaster, who has a B.A. in philosophy from Stanford, a Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA, and long experience with both meditation and psychedelics, which makes him rather well qualified to comment on the topics of free will and consciousness. Even if you disagree with him.

The notebook check power figures make no sense when you consider that their measured runtime was longer than what would be possible if the laptop was at idle the whole time. Their average idle power draw was at 6.5 watts, the battery is 65wh and the overall runtime is... 700+ minutes? What am I missing ?

Even if we assume that the test was completely at idle, Intel seems to draw less power than AMD when idling so I'm still puzzled by the run times.

But they constantly make new devices with incremental improvements and advertise/market for people to upgrade when they don't need to - and people do exactly that.

Swiss Institute of Tropical & Public Health | ONSITE | Basel, Switzerland | 80-100% | PhD student & Post-doc

The newly established group Epidemiology and Virus Evolution (EVE) at the Swiss Institute of Tropical and Public Health, led by Dr. Emma Hodcroft, is currently looking for a PhD student and a post-doc in the evolution and phylogenetics of endemic respiratory viruses, primarily Enteroviruses (EVs). Please note the EVE Group is entirely computational and does not have wet-lab space. Degree in a biological or quantitative subject is required and strong, genuine interest in biology is a must.

PhD position:
The EVE Group is searching for an enthusiastic PhD student with an interest in viruses, evolution, phylogenetics, and programming. You will use the open-source Nextstrain toolchain to develop new phylogenetic resources for EVs, analyze regional and global transmission patterns, investigate patterns in demographics, and characterize genetic evidence of natural selection. The project is ideal for someone interested in expanding their computational and programmatic skills in a biological field. The details and scope of the project can be adapted to the interests and expertise of the successful applicant.
For more information & to apply: https://jobs.swisstph.ch/Vacancies/927/Description/2

Post-doc position:
Two main post-doc projects focus on Enteroviruses and aim to:
- Integrate epidemiological, phylodynamic, and serological data into epidemiological models to investigate hypotheses about transmission, evolution, and human immunity. Models will aim to encompass what we know about demographics, genetic diversification, and global transmission patterns.
- Investigate the role of antigenic evolution and the role of asymptomatic infection in circulation and persistence. Analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal sera titers, and developing a better understanding of early- and later-life exposure, will paint a picture of how immunity is formed and changes over time.
However, the exact detail and scope of the projects can be adapted to the interests and expertise of the successful candidate.

Form the source of the wikipedia you quoted above:

"MacKenzie Tuttle, an aspiring novelist, met her husband at D. E. Shaw, a New York hedge fund where Mr. Bezos, a computer scientist by training, had become a senior vice president.

She told Vogue that she took the position of administrative assistant to pay the bills while she worked on her novels, but she soon found herself enamored with the laugh of the man who worked in the next office over. As Ms. Bezos put it in a 2013 interview with Charlie Rose: “It was love at first listen.”

SHE pursued him, and the wikipedia is wrong in saying that she worked for him. Nowhere in the article says that. As I was saying before, she was working in the same floor, but not for him. There was never a power dynamic there, just a woman who fell in love with a man.
The number of houses that can be searched is limited.

Actual police officers or detectives need to visit said house, spend time on-prem, collect, and analyze evidence. A single site can be accessed at a time.

Digital media are searched automatically, by hardware and processes, with many potential targets searched simultaneously and at vanishingly small cost.

Physical evidence and print media are far slower to access and assess than digital media are.

Physical evidence and print media have vastly lower data density than digital media do. Both temporal and spatial data resolution is far lower for the former. At the same time, provenance, integrity, and chain-of-possession over physical evidence media are also generally easier to ensure and assess, and both are generally less susceptible to either fabrication or modification.

(The point here isn't that physical media cannot be tampered with. It's that digital media can be tampered with absolutely no evidence of this on the media itself. Typically some external validation or integrity check is necessary. Digital media can be entirely fabricated, all the more so now with AI and generator technologies, or can be entirely destroyed without a trace.)

Digital media can be stored at volumes and for durations which would be utterly impossible with physical evidence.

A 1 TB storage device, which can fit on your pinkie nail, can hold the equivalent of ~200,000 books, roughly the size of a fairly substantial public library. The entire Library of Congress book collection, 140 million volumes, assuming 5 MB each, would fit in 700 TB of storage. With currently-available 20 TB drives, that's about 35 disks, which would fit within a few standard rack units (mostly depending on the size of disk you'd opted for). The total cost would be a few thousand dollars.

Digital media, particularly in the form of SaaS providers and Cloud storage, is an absolute trove of information on hundreds of millions or billions of people.

There's nothing wrong with using AI. I expect you're right that a lot of successful authors and other professionals will use AI, because it can be hugely useful. But like any tool, it can be used well, or used poorly. If a cover letter comes across as having been written by AI, you're using it poorly. If you're using it well, you should end up with something at least comparable to what you'd write yourself.

Yes it's honestly troubling. Until recently I completely believed that they didn't want to give up bin laden at all. Even then, it was unjustified imo to invade a country since I'm sure the US also refuses extradition sometimes.

But to hear that the Talibans were the reasonable or at least negotiating party here is insane.

The criticism seemed pretty clear. He said that last year 800k was spent, and none of it went into development of Processing itself. And that next year they plan to spend 1.2 million, and of that, only 2 developers are planned to spend any time further developing Processing.

And he said that's no better than what they had prior the foundation when him and Casey were working on Processing. That he started the foundation in the hope to scale up development.

Now, I have no idea what they could have allocated money on, isn't it sole purpose to further develop Processing? But my guess is they are doing outreach, grants, and other stuff like that, as opposed to further development. But that's just speculation on my part.
With so many multifunction SOC embedded controllers out there it's possible some one just didn't cut the lines to the radio built into the board that was selected for other reasons. Would not surprise me to see a lot of control boards that expected firmware or dip switches to disable unneeded functionality versus having a different line for similar boards if they weren't being made to a specific end customer anyway.
> Justice Elena Kagan tackled that very example during Monday’s oral arguments, comparing it to a hypothetical medical test:

>

> > So you’re going in for a medical test and you receive something from the hospital, and it says, to receive this test, the patient should not, and then, you know, it has a list of things that the patient shouldn’t do, and it says the patient shouldn’t eat any food, drink any liquids, *and* smoke. So I’m going to assume…that you’re not a smoker. Do you feel perfectly able to eat and drink as much as you want?

That isn't happening, though. I was curious so I looked at the last paperwork I have my hands on. It said "Do not:" and then there was a bullet point list, no conjunctions. I don't think it's ambiguous, and Kagan's argument here is disingenuous.
He's not American, hell he's not even from a western country.
Well it's a filter - if the cover letter sounds bad, then just reject the applicant. That's the role of cover letters; it's to get you to read the resume, which is to get you interested in the applicant. Or ignore cover letters like many companies do.

We do have a lot of non-native speakers here who say "I'm using AI because my English is not good". I think that's fine to add to the AI cover letter.

I suppose it's also fair to ask them to resend a human written cover letter. Some people spam, some legitimately care.
Tell that to the companies that require them. The disconnect...
Don't Be a Decel(erationist)
I appreciate what you're going through, I've hired for a wide range of roles and gotten everything from complete garbage and no cover letter to cover letters that were obviously ghost-written to resumes 7 pages long with no meaningful content.

The thing that helped me most was to try to put in as much effort as the sender did - if they just used an autofilled-ChatGPT letter? Send them a one-line no thanks. It doesn't have to be much. If you want to just go through the resume anyway, you don't even have to read the cover letter.

But so many engineers have also been beaten down by the applicant tracking systems that have come before. All sorts of things to get in front of a recruiter so that they aren't filtered out. I've watched recruiters throw away applicants because they didn't understand why their resume was neat and tidy and watched other applicants get pushed through simply because they filled out 4 pages of everything they've ever possibly done.

It's hard to blame people when the signal they get back from applying is so poor.
I agree with both. Your job is a pretty big part of your life and, like any experience you have, it shapes you.

You’re a complex and constantly evolving human. Your job is a part of you, like it’s your family, friends, education, hobbies, media you consume, ideas, secrets…

So, you’re not your job but your job is a big part of you.
