Agreed, I feel it's definitely Conway's law in effect, the org structure is being delivered: PMs need promotions so will change things for the sake of change, to have something to be delivered that is not only maintenance or steady small upgrades. To get a promotion it needs to be flashier, PMs chase "impact" (whatever that means) and not a "this is a nice and consistent user experience". To the detriment of us all, users...

Unfortunately I don't have many examples of large orgs being able to escape Conway's law, every larger org I've worked at has this issue.

After 2 decades in tech I definitely feel the incentives are all wrong, what organisations push for the ticking box process of getting promotions is quite disconnected from the needs of users. Given enough time, inevitably, it breaks.
To add another personal experience to that: I can do that as well, and for me it will make my tinnitus louder. It is very low pitched but more or less stable around 340Hz, and thus actually musically relevant to me as it gives me some kind of active, makeshift absolute pitch.
I don't think it will hurt anyone, people will just use OpenAI or whatever other service instead of a Facebook-provided one. They are just ensuring they can muddy the waters when there is eventual blowback.
Can someone explain how an organization like the NSA manages to keep records on every digital transaction (supposedly)? This seems like an impossible physics problem because the amount of data seems unfathomable even for an organization like the US govt. Pre-Snowden you could say that thinking was a conspiracy theory. Now we know that not only is it not a conspiracy, its probably much worse.

How about Youtube? They amount of video uploaded daily is increasing yet they manage to store everything essentially on demand going back to the first Youtube video. At the end of the day for Youtube the data must be fetched from a hard drive somewhere...right? Are they buying thousands of HDDs daily?

It's part of my job to "railroad" potential majorities that would prefer to do things that my judgment suggests will make things worse.

They're free to do it in their personal trees all they want. But if they commit changes that make the code less readable because some tool is being opinionated and can't be configured properly, their change won't pass code review.

Youtube has a right not to be on the web.

No freeloader will see their valuable content (which, as I recall...they get from where again?) if they don't put up a publicly viewable web site, and no law is forcing them to do so.

gematik GmbH | Different Positions | Berlin, Germany or remote (Germany)

Gematik is the national agency for the digitalisation of Healthcare Services. At gematik we are building concepts and products such as the electronic prescription (eRezept), electronic patient records (ePA) and the central portal for the communication of laboratory analysis (DEMIS).

We work with many standards, above all with FHIR and IHEv2, as main stack we work with Java/SpringBoot for backend and JavaScript/Angular for frontend, but it depends on sub teams and other languages or frameworks are also used (Kotlin, Typescript, VueJS, Quarkus).

There are many positions opened on the Job Portal, a good level of knowledge of the German language is highly recommended, for some positions it is also mandatory.

Title bump + different salary band. There's other SV expats here with similar compensation packages. Base salary is lower, but it's made up for in loads of stock with very fast vesting schedules. Tax wise it's nice because I'm no longer paying California state tax or most of my federal taxes (via Foreign Earned Income Exclusion). I'm just sitting on loads of RSUs, I'll probably quit once I get my permanent residency and retire for a few years to sell off and rebalance my portfolio.
The worst thing with google maps the last years is that you can't see many venues until you zoom in to the absolute max zoom-in, even if there is PLENTY of room to show it at a lesser zoom-level without cluttering up the view.

Sometimes it's even inconsequent, like you see something, zoom in to look at the streets, zoom out, it's gone... then you can't see it again until you zoom max..

Is that not also the case for the kids in the article harvesting cocoa? According to the article, they harvested a total of 140 pounds of cocoa for the year. According to Wikipedia, a typical worker can harvest around 150-175 pounds of cocoa in one day.

Even if they are horribly inefficient compared to a typical worker, perhaps in large part because they are having fun and playing at the same time, we're still only talking a handful of days of work each year. You can only drag out the harvest for so long. What do they do the rest of the time?
I would be surprised if it was that low. I used a random HR law specialist in a regional UK city and they were charging £350. I’ve heard £1500+
Yes, that works, but I didn't suggest it because it's riskier and takes way longer.

The whole filesystem has to be moved, instead of just the excess data.

Although this is usually successful, my advice would be: don't have a power outage if you're moving the whole filesystem.

I'm really curious, how does that work? Can you not give a lawyer written permission to make certain financial decisions for you such as taking money off of a bank account? Or is it that you had to sell assets such as stocks etc for which you weren't allowed? Or is it that banks froze all your accounts because you're under detention? Or is it that it's not possible to give lawyers such financial permissions in the US?
Definitely their skills at storytelling. Look at what is considered the top 5 comics of Batman for instance. Their stories are meh at best to forgettable and so far from what mangas offer. I think they work because the art is very good. I can’t wait to have someone who draws comics to coop with someone who does storytelling in mangas.
I hesitate to post here because I really don't like talking about my problems and have never written anything like this before.

I'm one of the original members of HN and I've been here for a long time; since week one I think.

I'm an American technologist who has done web dev work in the past, but right now I'm stuck on an island in the Philippines without income or employment, and things are getting pretty desperate since it's this close to Christmas and my wife and I have two young children (my youngest is five). The pantry and coffers are empty at this point. The reason I'm here is because my family are citizens of this country and although I am trying to get the immigration paperwork together to bring them to the States, there's quite a lot of red tape and it's taking a lot longer than I expected.

Until recently I had been working remotely but the company I had been with sold and got folded into a bigger corporation and I was laid off along with our dev team.

My goal is to find an entry level back end or front end role that is remote for now. I am working on my Python-fu and I also have experience with HTML/CSS/JavaScript. I am interested in cloud-based technologies.

Since then I've been sending resumes out and doing interviews, but I'm not getting any response or feedback so far whatsoever... not a single bite. The recent trend of BTO (Back to the office) has been killing my chances, I think. I'm willing to take just about any job, help desk, on call, roles that are APAC time zone-only, anything as long as I can do it from here in the PH.

I know this is a long shot but things are getting pretty desperate for me. My family is basically rationing and we're living very close to the edge of bankruptcy. I would be overwhelmed with gratitude if there was help, but most of all I want to just help myself. I am a hard worker and enthusiastic about work in general, and I have a technical background and have worked in several technical roles in the past. Thank you and happy holidays to whoever reads this!
There's a good post that goes into how salary bands work in the EU for SV Expats [1]. Basically for global talent, the total comp can be 4x to 5x what a local dev would expect to make. For obvious reasons, this isn't widely broadcasted or talked about.

I'm not sure if it's the same, but if I listen to pure noise (to sleep or something) I can somewhat adjust my hearing to focus on certain frequency bands in the uniform noise making me to hear a ringing sound in the noise. I can adjust the pitch and it will stay at the pitch until I change it.

So with this I can play a melody with the ringing noise. Sometimes I do this until I fall asleep. :-)
I am looking forward to this development since the open source models are not as good in Dutch compared to OpenAI.

Are there models good enough in Dutch which we could use in the mean time?

>> Abstract: Visible wavelengths of light control the quantum matter of atoms and molecules and are foundational for quantum technologies, including computers, sensors, and clocks. The development of visible integrated photonics opens the possibility for scalable circuits with complex functionalities, advancing both science and technology frontiers. We experimentally demonstrate an inverse design approach based on the superposition of guided mode sources, allowing the generation and complete control of free-space radiation directly from within a single 150 nm layer Ta2O5, showing low loss across visible and near-infrared spectra [...]
>This leads to a natural question that has not yet been dis-
cussed in the literature: if we could query a model infinitely,
how much memorization could we extract in total?

You will get every 50-grams, not because the model memorized all of them but by pure chance. It seems pretty obvious to me.

It makes me question if there were some cases where the model output an identical 50-grams but it wasn't present in the training dataset of the model, like in a very structured setting, like assembly code where there is usually a very limited number of keywords used.
"If you're not paying for dozens of people to carry oxygen bottles and dry clothes and tents and warm meals it doesn't cost anything to go outside."

In some cases unfortunately it does. The local governments of the Himalayas sell quite expensive permits to climb the high summits. This one was probably free, but give it some time and popularity and you will need a expensive permit for doing this as well.
Well you see SOME venues reliably, in particular those that chose to get (aka pay for) a logo etc.

Maybe I'm just being cynical but my pet conspiracy is that in order to make the map space marketable it needs to get worse first so companies are "encouraged" to pay for the privilege.

Is it safe to sign into Google through vanced micro g
Is signing into too your google account through vanced micro g for youtube version 18.45.41 safe for google users? I downloaded a few apk program/files to get a certain Youtube version. The first apk was a certain apk for app patches called revanced manager. The seconded apk was YouTube blue apk v18.45.41from Youtubevanced.org. After Clicking the second download link on the web a downloading prompt showed up in the middle of my screen showing the YouTube blue v18.45.41apk was downloading after it had downloaded the prompt didn't go away but immediately gave the option to update the YouTube app so I clicked update which it did then after the prompt finished showing me it that it was done updating the prompt again didn't go away but gave me the option to open the YouTube app which I did. However after it didn't go to YouTube it redirected me to another site for a apk file called vanced micro g- to download. With out vanced micro g the apk programs/files I downloaded would be useless, So I downloaded it. (since the files require each other to create a program. If I didn't download the YouTube version to came to life) Promt shows up that's it's downloading and finishes and goes away. And instead of the youtube app that's already on my device being updated- the youtube thats already one my device which was here first wasn't updated and hasn't been updated but however a second youtube icon comes up that's a different version and is second YouTube app that now works the way I want. Except I'm not signed anymore. When I open the YouTube app the features work fine and the way I want but I'm not signed into my youtube accout. So I click sign in add account and am directed to a page that says

"An app on your device is trying to sign into a google account. If this was intentional, use the sign in (or Huawei, if you have device with brand) button to connect to Google sign page, if not, press cancel to go back to the application that cuased this dialogue to show up."

Will my Google account get compromised. I have alot incorporated with my Google account like debit card info, linked webpages for account sign in, personal files, contacts, ECT. Has anyone had there private info/data stolen from signing into too your google account through vanced micro g for youtube version 18.45.41? Or have you not been breached since signing in?

I'm also thinking it's asking me that because I was signed into the YouTube account by connecting with Google option, when I signed up for youtube i didnt enter a email and new password, i just linked it with google.

Iv read alot about people using wordology as the word vanced myself and the and the three sylibles of "micro g" online but never once "VANCED MICRO G" four sylibles all together explaining anything. Iv read about people signing into vanced but I that could an abbreviation for revanced manger or something. Just looking for someone that might understand what I'm asking here

The outer skin is made of 3mm cold rolled stainless steel, likely the same 300 grade alloy that SpaceX developed. A conservative estimate for the yield strength (based on similar alloys) is 275 MPa, or roughly 1.8x the pressure required to compress a human bone (150 MPa).

Normal automotive skin by comparison is made from 0.65mm steel or aluminum.
Show HN: Httpbun – A companion tool to test HTTP clients
Hi HN! This is a tool I've been using for ~2y for testing HTTP clients, and to inspect requests, _as seen by_ the target server.

It's heavily inspired by httpbin.org, but it has more tools and capabilities.

It's been incredibly helpful in some weird debugging exercises recently, so finally decided to share more broadly.
I have the exact same experience. I believe it's called "somatic tinnitus" and I've had it for as long as I can remember.

Every now and then I get ringing in my ears that fade out quickly, which is normal. I always thought that was the sort of constant ringing people had when they talk about tinnitus, and the one you describe is a different class of tinnitus.

>I think the best solution would be some sort of selfcrawler which uploads your site to a search provider. uploaders have to pay and bad uploads/seo-spam gets punished somehow (thus seo-abuse becomes expensive)

I had the same idea; the website owners and the webmasters can crawl their own sites and work together with search engines in order to get revenue share from ads (sort of licensing deal, similar to YouTube partner revenue share program). But the problem is that the webmasters can not efficiently crawl their own sites because they do not have the money to do it every day like Google. Maybe we can have like 1 month old index for a search engine, sort of outdated and not that practical but still practical for some casual users.

This idea would be better for a commercial web archiving service where website owners and webmasters crawl/archive their own website and license it to the web archiving service.

WTF. Ten years locked up without trial, isn't that unconstitutional?
In this case, the issue is that they've tried to "DRY" up things that don't actually reduce any repetition. Yet. Maybe it will in the future, then DRY it up then. Secondly, DRY is meaningless if applied at units so small that you replace one invocation of a method with another invocation of a method when the arguments to the first one are obvious. E.g. consider this from the example:

def find_admin_role
Roles.find_by(name: 'admin')
end

Assuming your application consistently uses `name`, and is consistent about class names, `find_admin_role` is not saving you complexity over Roles.find_by(name: 'admin'). People familiar with Ruby ORMs and tasked with finding an admin role will go looking for finders in the Role class. They're not likely to find your method, and so are likely to write their own.

The former introduces complexity that is only warranted to me if 1) the method of finding the admin role grows more complex so it's non-obvious, 2) the method you DRY it up into is actually being used at least twice, 3) it's placed in the most appropriate class.

And it's that second where YAGNI comes in. By all means, DRY up logic. But don't do it before it actually stops you repeating yourself in a way that is actually significant.

To #3, that "find_admin_role" method really should be `Roles.find_admin` if it's allowed to exist at all - there it's at least somewhat defensible even if it is only a single line method, because others are likely to find it there, and even if it seems relatively redundant, at least there it serves to document that this is indeed the canonical name for an admin role.
Yup. Pushing jaw forward is the most prominent one. Goes up a lot.
Senior+ employees aren't allowed to miss things
Honestly I only think it’s cheaper to replace because we’ve made repair more expensive than it needs to be. I’ve fixed two TVs that stopped working with a few dollars of capacitors and my own time. That’s much cheaper than buying a new TV! But I had to go digging through forums when manufacturers could have provided this information. Instead they refuse ti share info and charge extreme prices for repairs where they will just throw out an entire board with one bad component which would cost 20 cents on its own.

I agree it’s a terrible system I just wanted to clarify that the “it costs less to throw it out and replace” narrative is only true so long as we make it true.

Part of the game will be to get other countries to sign contracts with the supplier before that realisation hits. They'll have decades of construction and further decades of expensive power to regret their decision by which time the sales team will have long retired.

That kind of corruption is common even when the person selling the dream is getting money from their own country's people. It steps up a gear when you are selling the dream to other nations.
