> if you do get lost, never leave your drainage (when things are going poorly, don't make them worse)

I read drainage as a water source and it might still work. In general rivers or any type of running water will have a higher chance of leading to another human being vs not with no other context.

You could relate that to software development by emulating running water in the sense that progress is being made if you're moving in a direction that's not fighting the current or stagnating. This could be taken in a number of different ways such as working on things that naturally let you make progress instead of fighting against it or getting lost and going in circles.

This is very much not what we do in the United States.

Rather, we forcibly uprooted, exterminated, and/or migrated indigenous people until they only occupied the most marginal land available, and then told them "here's your bit".
I can't help but think, how does glassdoor make money?

investigating htis, it is clear - from employers.

They help companies keep a clean image, and also sell them job listings and advertising.

Scrubbing a company's image seems like it would be really lucrative.

It doesn't seem like reflecting reality makes money. I actually don't know if there are any review sites where having accurate reviews makes it profitable.

And it doesn't seem like employees are really a revenue stream, since they are not looking for a job.
Unity but also the legacy of XNA/FNA, all sorts of custom game engines using it for scripting, and now Godot too (despite great resistance from the community that uses other, worse language that it offers).

As for the FOSS, the "core" itself is clean (which is pretty much everything you need). As in, just like with Oracle/Java and Google/Go, it is being developed primarily by engineers employed by its respective company, but there aren't really any abstractions that are made to work with specific e.g. Azure products. I would expect the runtime or language teams to actively resist should something like that happen and in fact it was already the case in the past [0]. This is notably where Chromium does so much worse with extremely concerning actions by Google like recent web integrity proposal.

C#, F# and .NET are MIT licensed meaning you can do pretty much whatever with the code, which another organization can make significant use of, with good example being aforementioned Unity. The main workhorse frameworks - ASP.NET Core and EF Core are platform and product-agnostic meaning ASP.NET Core today works best on Linux, and does not care which cloud provider you use, and probably the best DB to use EF Core with is PostgreSQL. There is garden variety of other protocols like gRPC and OpenTelemetry which have "first-party" integrations so it works well if you have a polyglot company (and no, if you use primarily Apache Foundation projects, you are a Java shop).

The tooling situation is probably closer to Java/Kotlin where you're expected to use a commercial product with free community options available (Visual Studio, Rider or Visual Studio Code - last two work great on both Linux and macOS). Some are using Neovim + LSP (Omnisharp) combo but it's very niche, the good debugger implementation is not OSS hence the remark.

[0] https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/97711 here's an example of a request driven by an interest from Azure team which was rejected because it's not something e.g. dotnet/runtime should concern itself with, and was moved to a separate package (it is abstract enough to live as a System.* extensions but nonetheless)

In the BlenderBIM Add-on, CAD modeling works by providing a dedicated modeling interface that interacts with the IFC data model. IFC is an ISO standard that describes geometry, data, objects, processes, and relationships, for the built environment (i.e. BIM). IFC's geometry is based on STEP, so modeling in IFC has similarities to modeling in STEP. You can have swept solid extrusions, revolutions, true arcs and circles, but also some things that don't exist in STEP but are specific to the built environment, like the parameters for an I-shaped beam.

So like other Blender add-ons that do this already (e.g. CAD Sketcher) the BlenderBIM Add-on bypasses Blender for most geometric operations. You define using the dedicated modeling interface, the IFC data model is updated, then the triangles are visualised by Blender, but the under-the-hood CAD definition is there.

The geometry processing layer is done by IfcOpenShell, which is a layer on top of OpenCASCADE (but in the future, may make more use of CGAL or its own custom geometry processing code).

That said modeling buildings are typically simpler than manufacturing CAD modeling. Buildings have forgiving construction tolerances, and are often assemblages of off-the-shelf products where it is not necessary to redefine the exact product shapes. (i.e. place a packer here, place a sprinkler there, whether the sprinkler looks like a sprinkler or is geometrically just a cube in my model makes little difference to construction or maintenance operations).
Not usually. Porn sites tend to use a 3rd party payment processor to manage funds (often sites dedicated to working with adult sites). So you don't get Pornhub on your billing statement, but something like Probiller or whatever.
The article is talking about ratings for existing employees, but everything said applies equally well to interview scores for potential employees. If you have candidates being scored by different interviewers, more of the variation is due to the interviewers than the candidates.
We tried to get a QA team to use it once… it was apparently too technical for anyone but the devs, so it never really got used much.
Retrospection, orientation, and I'll re-phrase the last one as "maybe stop digging that hole before it's so deep you can't climb out." (I'm guessing on that last one, not heard drainage used that way either.)

Retrospection: Periodically examine what you've made and how, identifying the good, the bad, and the ugly. Try to structure your future work to produce more of the good and less of the bad and ugly.

Orientation: Periodically check to see if you're making what you meant to make, is what the customer wanted you to make, and is still what the customer wants you to make.

"Stop digging": Ok, you have a bit of code that's almost right, but it fails some tests. Add an extra conditional here, copy/paste a function there, change a constant in the copied code, voila problem solved. Oh, failing another test, let's repeat, and repeat. In the end you have 10x (or more) the necessary code and anyone looking at it would, rightfully, mock you for copying a 10 line function multiple times to make "render_with_black_background", "render_with_blue_background", "render_with_green_background", etc. when you, maybe, could have made it a parameter (with a default value) instead. It's related to the previous two in the sense that if you're actually retrospecting and periodically orienting, you probably won't dig the hole too deep.
> If you go over the research, you realize that they all assume the premise "everyone is born with an identical blank slate".

From my experience this is a large exaggeration to not true at all. For example the Colorado adoption project has been around has been around for a longer time and was well regarded last I checked.

Are there piles of hard science papers out there that are concluding "everyone is born with an identical blank slate" that I am missing?
True, but this way it seems like an exotic Greek island.

“The Little Prince” by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Whatever age I read it, I am always surprised how much it deals with the actual problems I have.
I'm a Texan, a Christian, and a conservative; maybe I can help? Your impressions of Texas are all true, in my experience (though keep in mind that it's a big place and Austin is barely distinguishable from a California city). You're right that the dominant values come into conflict sometimes, with libertarians wanting to protect porn and social conservatives wanting to ban it. The reasons for wanting to ban porn go something like this:

1. Unmarried men will consume it in lieu of putting their sexual frustration to good use by looking for a wife -- or if necessary, working on self-improvement until they're worthy of the kind of wife they want.

2. Married men will consume it while depriving their wives of sexual contact. If necessary, those men should be confronting whatever marital problems are preventing sex from happening often enough to satisfy them.

3. A huge amount of porn production is downstream of major personal and societal tragedies; the actors being threatened in some way is eerily common (just ask Andrew Tate), and even the "consenting" ones often have histories of sexual abuse and unresolved trauma that are tainting their "consent." A hypothetical society where every daughter grows up in a two-parent household, is known and loved by her father, and is never raped, is going to have a major shortage of porn stars.

Jordan Peterson has talked a lot about the downsides of porn, you can find plenty of snippets on YouTube. I'd recommend this if you want to know more about why conservatives oppose it.

We have to keep in mind that half the population has below-average conscientiousness, and will find it very difficult to resist temptations (such as porn) that are daily put in front of them. Christian societies have generally believed that it's good to work together and structure things to minimize the number of such stumbling blocks (to the extent that it's feasible). Banning porn is considered a step towards that goal.

BUT, you're also right that personal liberty is important and might cut against this. My guess is, this bill was framed in terms of age verification to try and work around this; the authors of it are clearly anti-porn, but if anyone asks, they could say "we're not banning porn, just preventing minors from accessing it."

I've noticed some other commenters claiming things like "conservatives are lying about believing X, it's really an excuse to do Y" so let me address that: all of the viewpoints I've described here are very sincerely held, as I know well from many different conversations with people in the community.
I mean, it depends what you mean by ‘real quality’; you’re not going to get hand-crafted expertly made stuff that will last for centuries or anything. But for the price, their mid to high end stuff is excellent.
Sure, but the mix is not the recording, and it's the masters that are the bone of contention here.

And we have hundreds of contemporary albums that were all designed to be heard on all the same equipment, in 1987 alone we had Terence Trent D'Arby's debut, Pet Shop Boys' Actually, Fleetwood Mac's Tango in the Night, Whitney Houston's second album, Guns 'n Roses' Appetite for Destruction, U2's Joshua Tree, so I don't buy this argument that albums were mixed for these compromises all the time. All of those albums sound fantastic.

The fundamental recordings of those Prince albums seem to be sub-par, although that has not been helped by some of the mastering of original CDs or cassettes. I originally had it on tape, but then did buy the CD, years later bought a newer CD and then bought the Super Deluxe. No big differences!

You are misinformed. Puberty blockers are known to be safe to use for about a decade or so, and transgender children are not on them for nearly as long. It is used to buy time before either committing to adult gender-affirming care or (in the vast minority of cases) backing out.

In other words, it is very much in line with being cautious when it comes to children's healthcare, and any theoretical downside of taking the medicine needs to be weighed against the downside of abstaining from the only medication used to treat gender dysphoria in children.

Yes, they are only hilarious. Švejk on the other hand is in my opinion much more serious. One Czech literary critic call it even “Kafka by other means”. Yes, Hašek was a satiric writer, so that’s how he wrote, but Švejk is IMHO actually a serious book about the horror of a human being liquidated by the impersonal power of modern society.

"What kind of code are you writing that you have to literally go and research what it spat out" - so in a recent case I was trying to work with Elasticsearch. I'm not an expert in that, so I asked it to do some things. It hallucinated a bunch, and I ended up having to dive in and learn it deeply anyway.

In that case I think I was better off not relying on the tool. I do find it nice to steer me in a direction, but the things I use tend to be niche enough that I don't get the benefit many others do.

I also have a feeling you and I are using it in different capacities.

If one wants durable from IKEA, shop by material. They have sheet steel and solid wood that will outlast any particle board. The steel is a little thin on the budget line and the wood is not very aesthetic for some tastes, but they usually have options that last or outperforms more expensive particle board furniture that are more complex due to aesthetics. Hell even plastic there is fine, so many cafes with shitty beater IKEA cafe furniture.

Švejk is too much slanted by the expectations of “just funny” and by (absolutely awesome, but too nice) illustrations by Josef Lada. When listening to the audio version of the book, I was shocked how actually horrific story it is. I have mentioned elsewhere in this thread a Czech literary historian (M. C. Putna) who called “The Good Solider Švejk” as “Kafka’s ‘Trial’ by other means”. I think he is quite correct.
If your test case for left pad passes when it outputs a string of the right length, your boss is going to judge whether it's a good test case. Since this is all being done on federal grant money, it's legitimate to have higher expectations. This test was good, though - the previous two were disappointing.

Generally, "prove you didn't break the law" isn't how the law works. If there's no evidence that they broke the law, then there's no issue. If the government gets a 16-year-old to participate in a sting operation to get evidence that they're not checking id... well then if they provide porn to a 16 year old, they broke the law. Lawyers can hash out where the line is on "reasonable" steps to check an ID/what is a reasonably convincing fake/whether appropriate steps were taken to check that the person presenting the ID is the person on the ID. Businesses checking ID for adult-restricted items is not new ground. Collecting and presenting evidence of people breaking this kind of law is not new either.
> Hardware ring has nothing to do with "directly using the CPU"

Why wouldn't it? Several features are simply not available in ring 3. Several features are configured for you in a way you cannot change. Several instructions will simply fault your program.

> which just adds numbers into a stack variable

Yes.. and when you eventually overflow that stack, what happens? How did the stack segment selector get created? Can you change that selector or it's attributes? Can you set the stack pointer to any valid memory address you like?

> A userspace program in a VT-x virtual machine is exactly the same.

What does an IOMMU do?

> If those programs attempt privileged access then that access will fail and a trap is raised.

Right.. so you are not directly using the CPU. You're not even in control of what timeslices are afforded to you by the OS. You are in an exceptionally limited environment most of which you cannot control or alter and much of which you cannot even observe.

The fact that instructions get dispatched according to the system ABI when you run a program is not material to this problem, and in particular, is not at all correctly represented by this diagram.
Yeah, they’re definitely opinionated about design. Personally, I like it, but if the design doesn’t work for you, Ikea isn’t going to work for you.
The original claim was not that geniuses and savants exist. They clearly do!

The original claim was that a genius should be able to easily and quickly attain mastery of any topic, given a grounding in the basics. Like, you give Mr. Super Genius IQ a book on quantum chemistry and the next day they’re putting things together so cleverly they are on the precipice of new discoveries.

Feynman actually did this a couple of times! But I think that just shows the “unreasonable usefulness” of mathematics, as well as his own spirit of curiosity. (And at least one time that we know of, he faked it by reading a colleague’s research before he presented it. Not to take credit, but just as a prank, so he could interrupt and predict every conclusion before the presenter finished.)
