oh actually, it's 2250 - 10%, because we'll hire you on a 3 months basis trial, afterwards we'll give you the salary.

oh, and if you don't mind, we'll pay you partly in royalties because it's tax free... But to do that, you'll easily understand you must waive your I.P. on the stuff you make for us.

Priorities.

We all have 24 hours, there is no "finding time", it is just prioritising one thing over the another.

In the mids of my booming (cough) career, I was blessed with 4 children within 5 years. My prios shifted and still I was able to progress in my job, maintain social contacts and sleep :)

Turns out I was maxing my work hours to the absolute max before, and with far less pure time spend doing my job, I reached the same quality & respect. I had been spending my energy / time wrong / sub optimal.

Since that "revelation" I can do soo much more, that I deem important. Including spending very serious quality time with my children & partner. Much more than I was able before.

I kind of agree with this. Whatsapp for example, has become so incredibly big in many different parts of the world that it has become a sort of de facto standard for communication to the point where government agencies even use it to communicate information to citizens via chatbots. It feels to me like there is a need for formal standardization but how would you go about enforcing that?
You're being downvoted because they literally did what you suggest already.
Personally I've always found the most important thing to offer negotiation is BATNA.

If your BATNA is going back to your current job, which is already decently paying and something you've made pretty easy by understanding it in depth, you're in a really good negotiating position from the start.

If your BATNA is unemployment, and you're not already wealthy, not so much. Some people find it tough to bluff that kind of thing, in which case, getting any job at all is going to do more for your future negotiating power than quibbling over the number. (I would still recommend quibbling, but only because most people won't retract the offer just because you counter these days!)

> It's almost a malicious compliance attitude towards OKRs. Ok so the objective was to migrate, we got to 70%, well I guess then we're just going to stop doing any more work on it and cause an obviously preventable bad situation.

This is a misunderstanding of 70%. The idea is 100% should be a very high standard e.g. increase revenue by $3bn this year, such that even if you hit 70% you'd be happy. I don't think it's specifically about stopping people slacking off and more about pushing people to think differently about the problems they need to tackle. For some things, this is really helpful (such as increasing revenue, customers, etc.) In these cases, if you reach the end of the quarter and stop doing the things that were aiming for that stretch goal, everyone should still be pretty happy with what they achieved.

It falls over when you want to do something concrete (like migrating users). It's not a stretch goal at all, it's just the requirements! The 70% target simply doesn't apply in the slightest to this type of work. It's not an argument against setting objectives, just pointing out that OKRs—as taught—doesn't work for this type of work.

The ability to distinguish direction from a sound is based on the human ear frequency response being very directional. Your left ear will hear a sound coming from the right very differently than from the left. This is predominantly because of the shape of your ear and your head being in the way.

There's no way humans can tell the time difference of about 50 microseconds between hearing with your left and right ears. If you have research to prove otherwise, I'm all ears (pun intended).

You can also easily tell the difference of sound coming from directly ahead vs behind despite the ears hearing the sound simultaneously.

There is a lot of research into psychoacoustics in the past few decades. And pretty cool demos where directional audio is generated on headphones by altering the frequency spectrum between left and right ears.

I take it to read that Apple has to provide 3rd party repair shops with parts, and not do some weird stuff to prevent them from replacing those parts, but I don't see it necessarily requiring Apple to allow 3rd party spare parts.

The wording is weird, I can see the issue with second hand parts, but Apple will probably attempt to claim that a 3rd party part isn't compatible, due to the security features.

The internet is too vast and the people are too interchangable, i have beed banned for stupid reasons in a few comunities.

I think a lot of people knows how easy is to be banned from reddit from certain subreddits for example for...no reason?

I personally think that permanent bans should not be a thing if not for really specific, grave and repeatet reasons. timed bans (even really long ones) i think are way more effective for incentivize anyone to change behaviour (creating a new account after begin banned is the preferred solution to a perma ban)

We lost a lot of humanity in the process.
Not the way I see it. If I accelerate modestly (0.2m/s2) to just above 30% of c where the movement is noticable enough and then put the direction of travel just beyond one of the corners (e.g. just beyond the top right) by turning the view then the direction of travel will move slowly towards the center of the screen on its own - giving a slight sense of turning in the beginning - as one would expect of current velocity vector and the velocity accummulated from acceleration vector (always towards the center) add up. At velocities close to c the already huge velocity vector dominates and no chance of perpendicular (or any angled) acceleration make any effect on the velocity vector direction: the diagonal of the two can never go beyond c. The velocity vector locks in. (probably why those traveling near the speed of light don't age much, their particles cannot interact that freely with each other when their movement is locked in to a common travel vector?).

And here I'd observe that the acceleration value is measured in the local system where time slows down relative to the observer's system, while the speed is measured in the observer's system (naturaly, my speed relative to me is always zero).
Most of them are not good enough to make a dent in this task.
Agile is everything to everyone because it's derived from an manifesto made up of non-actionable feel-good slogans but is very often used as a shorthand for a set of project management practices, that have an less then perfect real world track record.

It is not a bad book but I'd say for sure over-hyped. As much as I enjoyed reading it, I would not recommend it as "must have" if someone was into "The Martian". It is not a "must have" more like it is OK for general public and for hardcore sci-fi fans I would say that I can see how it could be disappointing. But yeah no one can easily appease hardcore fans anyway :)
I can only say that I did it with two phones, and every time it was a hassle. On your phone, you need to login with this "Mi account" and grant pretty much every permission there is. Then you need a Windows PC and install a dubious application, connect your mobile and then hope it works, which it might not (happened to me), in which case go to Reddit and find a download link to some older version that still works (it did).

First time I needed to wait 2 weeks. Second time, I made the mistake of using the same Mi account and had to wait 4 weeks, because I did not know each time you unlock something your waiting time doubles. If your phone for whatever reason looses the Mi account connection, everything gets reset and you start from scratch.

It's not the end of the world, but 300$ will also give you a pretty decent Motorola Moto G phone, which are way easier to unlock (all you need is a mail address, and you'll get your unlock code instantly).

The basic of concept how such a thing is powered (electricity) is so far removed from anything people did in ancient times that it would be hard to get them to understand that neither gods nor magic are invovled.

That would be the easy mode... you could also vary difficulty by picking nearby countries to make it a bit more difficult.
Argh, what has Black Mirror done to our sense of optimism?

So the starting point of this conversation is the Fermi paradox. Your line of reasoning has a very long line of necessary assumption. I only show that how they might not be warranted.

> Not much more progress is necessary.

The more plausible you make the technology the more you have to explain why we aren't doing these things. We might go back to the moon soon but beyond that we don't have any plausible plans to do anything noteworthy in space, let alone activities that would be detectable from other star systems.

> Huh? Who has that idea?

You. Everyone else who holds up the Fermi Paradox. The further we look into space, the less we understand but somehow you guys are so very sure that we aren't seeing aliens.

> It just requires that some fraction of people are interested in it.

I don't know how this relates to the Fermi paradox. Is the argument that "as long as some people are interested there will be a Dyson swarm"?. I don't think that follows.

> but you can't even understand that some of your fellow humans might do 'pointless' things?

I can absolutely understand that. What I don't agree with is that we are on an inevitable path to a Dyson swarm (or similar scale engineering).

> I don't buy your argument. Aliens can't magically escape thermodynamics, even if they were super quirky and 'alien'.

That wasn't my argument but I don't know what aliens can do. They might be able to do things that look a lot like violating thermodynamics to our incomplete understandings of physics. They might be engineering on a scale that is so fundamental that we can't currently recognize it. They might just be on their planet(s) with eternally stagnant technology. The point is, we don't know. We don't have data. We won't be able to draw valid conclusion from almost total ignorance.

> We don't see these 'infrared stars'.

It was a hypothetical. But let's say we don't see dyson swarms, which I am not even sure of, then proper conclusion is that nobody builds dyson swarms and nothing else.

I think it's not so much the individual management technique that is the problem, it's the design of our organisations. SAFe, Lean, etc. are half processes and half organization design, but are generally really shoddy on the second part, and mostly shoddy on the first part.

Team topologies as a way to design your organization is a good start, TPS for processes, but with really taking to heart the kaizen and autonomation parts. And things that maximise autonomy and facilitate communication.

Casual Interstellar Travel:

Most hyperdrives just need to be Neptune’s distance from a star to work - two light hours; the Q-II needs to be five - Pluto’s! This means it can get you from any given human world in Known Space to any other in no more than eleven hours, but also no less than ten hours for any world outside the system.

There’s no intermediate setting. With most hyperdrives, a pilot can leave the helm unattended most of the time. If one does so in a Q-II for more than two minutes, they’re almost certain to crash into a star. It doesn't have an on-off switch, either, it has a grip that has to be kept or the drive turns off.
Impact should be measured as "features and their (monetary) value", not only "feature". Btw, I don't buy "long-term maintainability of the codebase". Ok, _I_ buy it, sometimes; my son doesn't.

Two year warranties after purchase are already common throughout the EU, and so are warranties upon repair. What this directive appears to do is make the former also cover replacement throughout the warranty period, and extend the latter to one year instead just a couple of months.

"which would then come into force 20 days after it is published in the Official Journal of the European Union"

One important detail...

EU directives don't come into force until they are translated/incorporated as law in each member state, which can take years. This is unlike regulations (e.g. GDPR) which don't require local incorporation.

The fewer people descend on Mastodon, the longer it can hold back its own ruin. Assuming it hasn't already been ruined by the people like you and I escaping Twitter.

Eternal September is as absolute a law as thermodynamics. I don't even recommend Mastodon to people anymore. It's selfish, but in this day and age of algorithms, dark patterns, psyops, influencer culture and AI, all engagement must be considered toxic, although the dose makes the poison. The day Mastodon does "seize mass culture" is the day it becomes something unrecognizable and irrevocably cancerous.

You deleted your previous post that was downvoted to oblivion, so I’ll repeat it on this one: This is just racist, dog whistling drivel.

Starts with an appeal to authority with no proof.

Then attempts to make minorities the root cause of problems, which is flawed because:

1) We don’t know the race of the person in question in the article. If you find out they’re a minority, I’m sure we’ll get an “oh but”.

2) Plenty of minorities (blacks, Latinos, Asians, women, people considered minorities in race or gender) are getting laid off at the moment, and from Amazon explicitly. If you don’t know what I wonder how many minorities you actually know. I already assume not many which leads you to this racist diatribe.

3) Amazon cannot be at one time both, ruthlessly efficient in squeezing its workers, but also loose enough to fire so called “good workers” for “evil less good dei workers”.

Amazon, and all other major, hires and fires in this fashion because they are game of thrones style work sweatshops. Nothing more nothing less. In addition any “dei” initiatives they have are window dressing; white peoples are not getting fired at anyone’s expense.

Please go back to Facebook or TruthSocial and terrorizing your 270+ workers. The rest of us would like to be rid of your racist nonsense.

Yes the Cirrus vision even has a land at nearest airport mode that can be activated by a passenger in the back.

It's not exactly graceful though. It'll just announce its intentions on the emergency channel and picks the nearest runway it wants. You'd better have a really good reason for it. It's still better than activating the CAPS parachute though which will usually total the airframe and can cause injuries.

> I’m not sure why the author has chosen to represent music as a graph showing the relationship between individual notes.

I think this can easily explainted: You only get notes from the data. Chords, etc are "cultural" constructs: Names for certain sets of relationships between individual notes.

So as you said: We should assume that their technique of analysis should reproduce our notions. For example I would assume that the note transitions primarliy happen inside the key of a piece or that comparing the note transitions between different voices follows certain patterns ("contrapoint"). And it would be interesting to connect their data space to our existing framework.

But that's a lot of additional work that might not be necessary for certain goals: If the goal is to see if their technique is able to answer certain questions (such as differentiating styles of composition), that's already good enough.

My general assumption would be: If their data space or technique of representation is rich enough to reconstruct the original data, it is just as good in terms of what we can answer. The question is then: How convenienty can we answer our questions using their representation.

Presumably those calculations are just based on the critical mass of fissile material, not based on design yield which would include a fusion-boost.
Honestly, I don't like this approach. I think it's better to just write down what needs to be done and say "this is what I'm doing." At least that's clear to everyone instead of everyone in the org trying to BS each other.
And those locations should either attract good use cases like data centers or should be incentive to solve this issue in a way that we can use it.
