Done a similar thing in a Zoom interview. I had a horrible hard Leetcode question, was completely stuck and was getting nowhere (neither did the interviewers seemed keen on helping me out). I told them hey thanks this isn't my day I want to quit the interview - at this point they really tried hard to make me stay for the rest of the time. I think if a candidate wants out - you should let him.
The state of SourceHut and our plans for the future
> When AMD/intel have moved to the same or comparable nodes, they’re not catching up for perf/watt.

They are though? If you compare the Apple and AMD processors that are both on e.g. TSMC 5nm, the AMD ones have if anything better performance per watt. Compare the 7945HX3D to any Apple CPU on the same 5nm process with a similar TDP and the 7945HX3D will generally have similar if not better performance.

But people keep doing comparisons right after Apple is the first to release a CPU on a new TSMC process, and naturally if you don't compare like with like, the newer process is more efficient.

Another reason people keep getting confused is that AMD isn't afraid to go back and release updated models of older cores on their original process nodes. So for example the 7730U is from 2023, it's just a year old, but it's Zen 3 on the 7nm process they've been using since 2019. Meanwhile the "real" 2023 release was Zen 4 on 4nm (e.g. 7840U), but don't pick the wrong one to do your comparison.
It's not discrimination when it's based on objective reality.
But I guess you are one of those who will call discrimination when someone doesn't make the cut because they weren't good enough, whether it is in sport performance or intellectual capacity or anything else for that matter.

We are still hearing about discrimination of women in STEM subjects when not only they have the same exact opportunities but we reworked a lot of the education system to accommodate them in preference.

We can never win with your type because there is no logic, it's all about the feelings and emotions that uncomfortable truths create.

And nice trying on the racist insult, I fundamentally don't think there is a superior race or whatever, just that there are objectively different genetic heritages that are better at some things (and vice versa). It's the same thing for women, men are not able to make other humans, that's an objective truth.
Either you take advantage of that and assign different things to do depending on actual relative strength of peoples or you put your head in the sand, makes everyone go through meaningless competition that bring about the same results, just less efficiently and with way more casualties than necessary.
People are complementary, you can't have the smart ones doing masonry while the strong ones doing architecture, that's just stupidly inefficient and a sure way of creating problems in the long run...

And to be clear, I strongly believe in the equality of opportunities as well as equality in laws but that doesn't mean you have to engineer a whole system against "discriminations"; it won't work no matter how much you believe.
Maybe it is related to them updating the backend to support GPT-5 in production. I appreciate these downtimes should be planned, but since it's OpenAI, this may be it. One can only hope, though.
Depends how narrowly you want to focus on embodied.

Any advanced topic requires struggling through a big set of "special cases" to master.

This is how I learned mathematics for example.

After you have learnt enough of the special cases (trees) you start to be able to connect them and see their relation (the forest).

it's your fault autocomplete address fields think I'm in Canada!
No, it really isn't. The point of faster chips is for the user to be able to do more things and do them faster (without having to wait for the computer). This may mean more complex software that uses the added capabilities to do actually useful stuff that would not have been feasible before. It does not mean meaninglessly squandering performance on layers of abstractions because that takes slightly less developer time.
I'm doing this manually(linkedin search, jobs page, IMs) It's is very time-consuming and distracting. I'm looking for some kind of automation myself.

Show HN: OpenRecall FOSS alternative to Microsoft's new Recall feature
> Interviewers expected a solution FAST, and to match that you need to have studied and learned the answer beforehand.

Yeah this is the real BS behind the tests. Good interviewers help you manage and try to find a solution. Not just "answer is binary tree"
A good interview is an absolutely rare thing. I can't name the chances, but throughout one's career it's going to be close to amount of jobs one's going to land. More likely less than that number.

From my experience you can say it's going to be good or bad right from the start. 5 minutes into an interview and you can already see where's it's going to end.

I don't understand when companies try to give test assignments to senior devs. Even if your GitHub or whatever profile is not rich with projects you can evaluate person's professional level during the conversation.

And I also hate stupid riddles during the interviews. But there was an interesting case. I got a couple of verbal puzzles that I should have solved right at that time and I failed. But I got the job anyway. So I guess if people in the company are common sense driven it helps to choose hiring strategies that work for both sides.
All of this is answered in the first 100 words of the website.
Web games are squarely outside "what do we really need" territory.
In general I agree with you, but sometimes the “live”ness of demos is essential. I’ve given quite a few presentations about LLMs over the past year and a half, often to audiences unfamiliar with or doubtful about them. Being able to have on-the-spot, unplanned interactions with an LLM has been very useful for showing listeners that they are not just preprogrammed algorithms.

But I’m giving another demonstration in a couple of weeks, and this time I will be ready to show not only ChatGPT but also Claude and Gemini. And I’ll have some previously prepared examples ready in case the Internet connection goes down.
Sorry to hear that. Was the bad night from the poor ChatGPT performance or because of anxiety leading up to the presentation?
Same experience, used FizzBuzz at many places and always got surprised by the amount of people it can filter. The best interview process I've ever ran at a company consisted of a basic FizzBuzz for about 15-30 min followed by a pairing session no longer than 1h30m on a problem that could get as tricky as we wanted to assess their skill level.

We would both test the basics as well as go through with the candidate on how they think, how they collaborate, help them out if we felt nervousness was impacting them showing their skills, and in the end got a much better grasp on how skilled they were than if we were looking at Github repos or giving DS&A trivias to solve.

No IDE, specifically to test basic ability. We use a web-based shared editor, that has syntax highlighting, and auto-tabbing, but specifically no auto-complete nor auto-import. Sometimes, it's just pseudo-coding, either in a conversation, or on a whiteboard.

Even though Eclipse does it, I'm sure you know where HashMap lives. Some people are compile-and-pray type devs. They lean on auto-complete for everything, not as a productivity tool, but because they don't know how to do even basic things. We don't want those on our team.
You can't be scared while you laugh at someone. So laughing is a good thing to do to stave of fear.
The best way to calculate the battery life is in terms of photos. It can take a minimum of 50k photos on a single charge, so 50k photos * 30 minutes == 2.8 years. The battery self-discharge will deplete before that though, so I'd expect 12-24 months.

Note though that the SD card can only fit 20k photos, so the battery typically lasts longer than the SD card, and after that the oldest photos are overwritten!
it's clearly not a dead horse as long as the leetcode interviews are still ubiquitous in the industry, and as long as people agree it is a problem. the posts are trying to convert a critical mass of people into realising the problem exists, and that they might be able to be part of the solution.

Because this opinion has surfaced a number of times here: Yes, Tolkien did care deeply about the realism of his world. And because he spent his whole life studying pre-modern societies, the societies he creates in Middle Earth do function very realistically. I think there are two reason why many readers miss this:

(1) Much of Tolkien's world-building is implicit rather than explicit. He doesn't talk about Aragorn's tax policy because he doesn't need to; Aragorn is recognisably a feudal king and there is a standard way taxes are done a feudal system (i.e. the vassals take care of gathering them). Tolkien has a deep understanding of how such societies function, but much of this comes out indirectly in the story, through the way the characters behave and what they can and cannot do.

(2) Pre-modern societies are so deeply different from modern ones (economically, culturally, and socially) that I think many readers stumble across things they find unexpected and dismiss it as "unrealistic fantasy", without understanding that in such a context, this is exactly how one would expect the world to work. For example, the deep devotion and self-sacrificial service Sam shows to Frodo is often discussed in terms of friendship (and it is a great friendship), but one cannot fully understand it unless one also understands it as a (very positive) master-servant relationship.

If you want a better understanding of the deeper realism of LotR, I cannot recommend Bret Devereaux' blog highly enough. He is an ancient military historian and has written extensive (but entertaining!) analyses of both LotR and GoT. See here for two samples: https://acoup.blog/2020/05/22/collections-the-battle-of-helm..., https://acoup.blog/2019/05/28/new-acquisitions-not-how-it-wa...

I see strong potential in this feature, however given Microsoft's history in some regards I believe this feature should be (a) fully auditable and (b) not dependent on specific hardware (like Recall requires a special NPU chip) and (c) OS independent. There's still a lot of room of improvement but ultimately we believe that the community should decide what is important (is it encryption? is it blacklisting apps?) rather than the features are dictated by a megacorp.

Why do you speculate that number? With $1M in revenue and $1.2k in profit, there must have been $998.8k in expenses. I assume "pay yourself" was part of the $998.8k. But I don't know the answer to the other part of your question: I don't know if the $90k in taxes are included in the $998.8k expenses.
Low-level means different things to different people:

1. The best source of low-level information on things like operating systems (writing your own) etc is https://wiki.osdev.org/Expanded_Main_Page

2. Compiler related low-level should include a read through Crafting Interpreters (https://craftinginterpreters.com/), even if all you're going to do is create compiled languages.

3. Hardware type low-level (where you build your own logic) is a long and ultimately non-rewarding path. I would suggest https://eater.net/8bit/

All those links are only starting points; use them to find a direction in which to head.

[EDIT: I also recommend writing a eBPF module for linux - easier than writing a kernel module, with just as much low-level hooks as you might need].
I'm a little behind where you are (bad assembly knowledge) and I've always thought my next steps were learning about SPI and I2C, if that helps.
I have had all possible experiences. Sometimes I feel like genius and ace some leetcode with an almost novel solution. Sometimes I missunderstand the question/scope and mud myself into the hole of despair.

I have been rejected for one mediocre interview among many good ones. Or the other way around accepted even though I didn't perform well.

Sometimes the interviewer works with me. Sometimes against me. Sometimes a war story impresseses positively, sometimes raises suspicions.

At this point it feels like gambling.

I have also ran almost 400 interviews on the other side over the years, and to me it seems quite clear when somebody cannot write code at all. I like to think I am not biased. But who knows.
Considering the demographics I find it hilarious that you believe that current perceived discrimination is the result of a majority.
Because if there is one thing that's for sure, it's that the white person is a race in extinction considering the fertility levels that do not beat the replacement rate in pretty much every single western country.

And you clearly don't understand much about what you are talking about. The fact is that society as we know it is clearly going away, precisely because the fertility level is so abysmal that at this rate in two generations the genetic heritage that built all this world of freedom will be extinguished.

There is actually a trend of "strong women" going out of their way to bring around men from foreign countries to mate and create a family, precisely because of all the problems the social propaganda has created. Another society will perdure that's for sure, but it definitely won't be the same and the more time passe the more it looks like the replacement won't be as nice and open to liberties as what it replaced.

I don't even care, this is what happens when a culture gets too complacent, it gets overthrown and replaced by a stronger competitor. Now the question is: will it be better? So far, I fear the signs are not in favor of this conclusion, but we will see...
This explanation doesn't make any sense. Your example is two words which are barely different at all in their pronunciation, certainly not sufficiently to cause unintelligibility (i.e. [wirk] vs [wak]). Differences in pronunciation of this kind are everywhere in English.

Some facts that I noticed after following stocknear for a while:

- You are not open source, if there is no property right for everyone to use your project.

- False promises, saw your project the last time on hacker news. 99% for free? Forgot where you came from? Forget what you wrote? You pay walled nearly blocked every useful tool.

- Idiotic value propotion, you started this project with this text being on your landing page:

"One place to change the market. Join stocknear to target The power people who shifts the market. We're a community of traders, no more to be swayed. By the 1 %, who control the market with disdain. We've had enough of the greed and corruption. That plagues the financial industry with disruption. Start your journey today, to be different. Remember the 1 % fears who is no more indifferent."

- Unprofessional behaviour. See: "The AI Copilot helps you to find the most profitable stocks ahead of the competition.

Automemcpy: A framework for generating fundamental memory operations
Hi Dave, nice project!

I'd love to hear more about the low power design. You mentioned going for a MSP430 on here, and the high level architecture blogpost has some infos about the power domains too. But I'd love to see another blog post with some more nitty-gritty powersaving stuff.

I was also wondering... have you thought about adding a simple streaming compression algorithm to increase battery life? Less data to write would mean less time of VDD_B being active. Could maybe even be implemented on the FPGA. I was thinking of something like delta encoding, with two different code lengths for small and big brightness changes (per color channel.

E.g. first bit 0 -> 5 bits of +/-32 brightness delta following. First bit 1, 11 bits of brightness delta.

You'd loose some minimal information if brightness changes by more than 2048 between two pixels, but you could just "smear" that change over two consecutive values (e.g. [0, 0, 4096, 4096, 4096] would end up as [0, 0, 2048, 4096, 4096])
