I'm amazed they were able to pull from Planet. As impressive as OpenAI is, Planet is such a stellar company with the right mix of good intentions/impact and profitable product market fit that it's hard to imagine a better place to work right now. That said, maybe Planet's success made it less attractive to someone looking to take on new and monumental challenges.
I have experienced the same on other sites as well, with large text size. It sounds like this bug could fit.

> and the vast majority of these involved algorithm questions that had no relation with the job function.

Consider the problem that you're hiring a software engineer and the company has has openings in several different teams that only have the job title in common.

Do you have four different sets of problems that are related to job functions? Does the interview take four times longer? Or do you extend offers to a dozen software developers this week and then have the teams that have the most need / the applicant appears to be best suited for add the headcount there?

If you are giving the same interview to all the candidates (so that you're trying to eliminate bias of asking different questions of different people) ... would that not tend to be solved by asking more abstract questions that are then compared to an agreed upon rubric as to which candidates were "meets expectations"?

... And what if it is for one team that has one set of problems... Do you have the candidates sign NDAs so that you can show them the actual problems that you then go pursue if something leaks? And if today's actual problem is solved tomorrow (unrelated to the applicants solution ... though I've experienced some "here is some real problems we are having" and startups trying to get an hour or two of consulting time for free with no intent to hire), do you give a different interview for someone next week?

The standardized and unrelated work means that you're not accidentally getting in trouble with HR with some bias in the questions or running afoul of FSLA by having someone do uncompensated work that might be related to real things being done.
You must be trolling and not evaluating either on their current state, or have little understanding of the subject matter as others have pointed out.

Please write an efficient text element scanner that uses all AVX512 vector width in Java that matches LLVM codegen and can take any* source of memory? You can easily do that in C#, it's impossible to do it in Java alone.

(it uses portable SIMD and monomorphized generics to express negation to deduplicate vectorized paths, just like you would do so in Rust, except it doesn't have portable SIMD in its standard library yet)

*C# 'ref' variables also known as byrefs also work as special GC-aware pointers which can target any memory - stack, GC heap or anything else including unmanaged source and GC is able to disambiguate that and handle that in a performant manner during mark and sweep. This way you can pass a slice from Rust, construct a Span<T> from its ptr and length and then transparently interoperate with the rest of CoreLib, you could do so with the pointers already to an extent, but those required object pinning which was undesirable for something that would be used so ubiquitously in the code that 99% of users end up utilizing without realizing so.
I don't see why any response to M$ is required.

Anyone who runs a free software operating system is free to implement any such recording system they desire. These developments should be driven by user requirements, not in response to some new M$ feature.

By "community", it's implied that this is a diverse and disparate group of individuals and organizations. If any one of these desires to make or use a system, like the linked openrecall, then others are free to use it or not, or ignore it completely if they desire.

This makes no inference about the motives, or user desires of any other members of the "community". Which is completely different from the MS OS user "community", who are all bound by what the M$ corporation chooses to do.

This is an excellent example of the distinction between free software and open source. The point of free software is to facilitate user freedom, not just to share the source code.
I think it's the other way around.
Not necessarily, that entirely depends on the reward function being used, but I get your point.
Do you have a source for this?

Google is an ad company, they have a full model of what you like and dont like at different states of your life built.

What does Apple have that's even close?
I just don't think the average user cares enough to want this extra friction. It's like if every time you ran a google search it gave you lower-quality results and you had to click a "Yes, give me the better content" option every time to get it to then display the proper results. It's just an extra step which people are going to get sick of very fast.

You know what it's really reminiscent of? The EU cookies legislation. Do you like clicking "Yes I accept cookies" every single time you go to a new website? It enhances your privacy, after all.
It would help your point to separate design leadership from supervisory management. You do not want weird nerds in charge of personnel decisions beyond "Yes, we get along" and "No, we don't"; you do want them in decision-making roles about the product.

If I lose access to my Apple account (via hacking, being banned or otherwise), do I also lose access to all my saved password? Thats what I want to know.
Yes, it's so nice to keep random info in 1Password. I keep my VIN/license plate, software licenses, API tokens, drivers license info w/ pictures, insurance cards, etc.
> People either had it or didn't. The decision making process was straightforward.

No it wasn't, not at all!

You (and most people) put an awful lot of trust in medical tests, which are frequently wrong (in both directions).

In the case of COVID, there was (and still is, in some circles) the notion of 'exposure'--if you had dinner with someone who then tested positive the next day, should you cancel the NYE party you're hosting in 3 days? Even if you test negative the day of the party, it's a minefield. How much do you tell your guests, and when? Knowing that the party attendance will be halved if you say anything at all.
As long as they don't geolock it to "english speaking" countries, I'm fine with that.
Practice.

The interviewer knows you don't have personal experience building Dropbox, but a systems design interview question might be help me build Dropbox, for cats. Half of it is regurgitating information - what database would you use, Redis vs Mongodb vs Dynamodb vs Postgresql vs Spanner vs BigQuery vs BigTable vs Firebase, but more importantly, you need to show that you know the bigger concepts; relational vs key-value vs document store, and their trade-offs.

The interview is 45 minutes to see how you think, how you react to questions, how you behave as a human being, what happens when I throw in a curve ball. If I say your design is stupid, do you get mad and start yelling at me and call me names, or can you incorporate that feedback and adjust your design to accommodate a change in behavior.

Get to know the building blocks very well.
> Many worlds does postulate its many worlds rather than predict them as it provides no way their existence can ever be tested for.

Many Worlds just postulates that if you put a cat in a superposition of two quantum states (alive + dead), there is no sensation associated with that superposition. The cat is in a superposition of having the sensation of being alive, and having the sensation of being dead, but there is no observable quality of "being in a superposition of alive and dead". Both of the superimposed pure states of the cat feel decidedly one way or the other.

Hence, when a human is in a superposition, we would not know it. Both of our superimposed states are experiencing the feeling of being in a pure state of looking at an instrument measuring a photon with polarization ↑, or looking at an instrument measuring a photon with polarization ↓. Being in an (↑ + ↓) superposition doesn't feel like looking at an instrument display and seeing a blurry reading. We feel like we saw the instrument reading ↑, and we (as an element of the quantum system) cannot interact with the branch of the wavefunction that we are superimposed with in which we saw the instrument reading ↓.

This isn't a separate postulate, it's just straightforward quantum theory applied to quantum systems large enough to have opinions about their own state.

Now that many sites are moving to passkeys or TOTPs, it would be great if Apple could not lock users in there as well.

That's only on Windows and requires you to install iCloud tools locally, right?

No, Keychain Access is just a terrible app. It is sufficiently terrible that I'm 100% aware of its existence and instead choose to pay for a less OS-integrated, but far better app.
I thought it was interesting that the only image generation they support are sketches (that look like a photoshop styling) and goofy 3d cartoons -- not really competition with most creatives.
Google is doing this as well but they are doing it on single app like gmail assuming all info is there and also across websites with agents but not cross apps like apple is doing across mails, messages, maps etc.
It's actually taking LESS screen space, because "Siri" is now just a glowing edge on your screen.

And good news! You can clear your homescreen too fully from all icons now =)
I feel like as long as a decision them made impacts one group of people more than another group (especially when the impacted group is a historically marginalized group), that it's OK to call it racism.

If this were politically correct they would allow names from all cultures.
Couldn't Siri already do some of these things without LLM's?
The problem with using a dataset consisting of all games on lichess.org is that most/all instances of these moves are most certainly from people who are trying them out in a noncompetitive game just to see what happens. In fact he himself likely polluted the data further just to make this video, maybe even enough to change the answer.

There needs to be a minimum bar for the data to be meaningful, e.g. by restricting to players above a certain rating threshold, or considering tournament games only.
I don't really care what engine is used. Bad javascript between sites raises the noise floor above browser/engine speed differences, and ads and trackers do the same wrt site functionality.

> *The solution? We told them the first booking was just a "practice" interview. And then if they did well, surprise, it was a real interview all along. (If they didn't, we'd let them try again, though it almost never changed the outcome.)

Honestly, saying it's a "practice" interview, and then saying "Oh, you did so well we're just going to let you skip the real one" isn't lying. Some people might need to believe there's a safety net in order to join. Other people might really need practice.
I know your situation very well, I still develop a lot on Windows, but my main computer is a Mac. I find the hardware amazing, and the software a joy to use.

Windows 11 is behaving more and more like the viruses and adwares I spent so many years defending against.
Heh, I’m from the US actually; moved to the Netherlands before shit got weird there. Every time I go back to visit friends and family, I get a reverse culture shock.

The legal system here is mind-blowing compared to the US. My son got beat up by some thug-teenager for being from the US (the teen was Afghan, so makes sense why he would feel that way, but to take it out on a 6 year old is kinda fucked up). Anyway, watching that play out was very interesting.

Even just dealing with employee background checks is interesting in that only certain crimes (relevant to the work you are asking them to do) show up. So if an embezzler wants to go into childcare, nothing would show up (probably, I haven’t actually done that, so I have no idea for this specific example, it’s just an example).

It’s so fascinating… but if you are ever looking for a way out of the US: Dutch-American Friendship Treaty is a way.
The loopholes it uses won't work for long, and it's not practical when traveling. Besides, this is an Apple-created problem that they could easily fix by allowing people to deploy apps to their own devices without any stupid limits.
IVPN | Senior Infrastructure Engineer | Remote (UTC-1 to UTC+3) | Full-time | https://www.ivpn.net

IVPN is a privacy-focused VPN service in operation since 2010. We have high ethical standards, regular security audits and a stellar reputation among security and privacy analysts.

We are looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to help:
-- maintain our existing infrastructure
-- implement a new server architecture for our VPN gateways that we have been working on for the past year that is open, immutable, diskless, secure and built on leased bare-metal servers.

The position is fully remote with high level of autonomy.

Requirements are deep experience with:
-- infosec, specifically with regards to cryptographic controls used on servers e.g. Public key crypto, reproducible builds, TPM
-- TCP/IP, UDP, SSL/TLS and other related Internet protocols
-- configuration management tools e.g. Ansible, Puppet, Salt
-- managing Linux servers, including bare-metal
-- Python, Go or other scripting languages

You can email me if you have any questions about the role: viktor at ivpn.net.

If you are ready, it's better to apply here: https://ivpn.recruitee.com/o/senior-infrastructure-engineer-...
Yeah, the image generation felt really…cheap?…tasteless? but everything else was really impressive.
The messages will still be green apparently.
Eh with modern processor features like secure enclaves it's definitely possible to build systems in which the operators CANNOT access the information. (I worked on such a system using SGX for a large car producer, even physical access to the machines/hypervisors/raw memory would not give you access, perhaps the nsa has some keys baked in to extract a session key you may generate inside an enclave, but it would be very surprising if they burned that backdoor on anything as low fruit as this).
Lots of Cryo games were like that.
You make it sound like it's merit or competence that landed Cook in that position, and that he somehow has earned the prestige of the position?

I could buy that argument about Jobs. Cook is just a guy with a title. He follows rules and doesn't get fired, but otherwise does everything he can with all the resources at his disposal to make as much money as possible. Given those same constraints and resources, most people with an IQ above 120 would do as well. Apple is an institution unto itself, and you'd have to repeatedly, rapidly, and diabolically corrupt many, many layers of corporate protections to hurt the company intentionally. Instead, what we see is simple complacency and bureaucracy chipping away at any innovative edge that Apple might once have had.

Maintenance and steady piloting is a far different skillset than innovation and creation.

Make no mistake, Cook won the lottery. He knew the right people, worked the right jobs, never screwed up anything big, and was at the right place at the right time to land where he is. Good for him, but let's not pretend he got where he is through preternatural skill or competence.

I know it's a silicon valley trope and all, but the c-class mythos is so patently absurd. Most of the best leaders just do their best to not screw up. Ones that actually bring an unusual amount of value or intellect to the table are rare. Cook is a dime a dozen.

I had an even uglier X-Windows t-shirt that I got at the first X11 conference at MIT. It was simply a black and white screen dump with a bunch of incredibly hideous Athena Widgets apps (aka the Anathema Toolkit) like the original X11 netnews and email readers, the infamous butt-ugly xfontsel font selector (for selecting butt-ugly-fonts-with-butt-ugly-logical-font-description-names), and xterm, xlogo, xclock, xcalc, etc, on an audacious lime green background, and I loved to wear it to show off how terrible X-Windows was, and totally wore it out. If anyone still has one I'd pay good money for it!

Here's what happens to xcalc if you stretch it around too much -- its layout manager loses its elasticity and begins to look like Donatella Versace after her 10th botched plastic surgery attempt:

https://www.donhopkins.com/home/catalog/unix-haters/x-window...

To mitigate that problem, I hacked the OLWM window manager so I could run it with a window id parameter to use as the root window, and gave it xcalc's client window id, so it wrapped frames around each of the buttons, and I could drag them around and resize them to repair the damage, make the important ones really big, arrange the digits in any order, and even iconify the buttons I didn't need. But that was even uglier with the OPEN LOOK frames around each button, and was a far cry from HyperCard.
100%. Based on what I've seen so far, unified context is king.

Which at the backend means unifying necessary data from different product silos, into organized and usable sources.
No mention of Stage Manager at all if I'm correct? Seems like Apple is quietly abandoning that path.
Reading the Wikipedia page on Halt and Catch Fire it seems this issue actually caused a certain set of illegal opcodes to become an "official' HCF instruction (opcode was DD so it was also known as "Drop Dead") as it was also later used by the engineers for product testing or something.
People already use words like 'product', 'content', 'feature', and 'vehicle' in everyday conversation. It makes me shudder every time.

First off, you don't need to title your comments. That said, just because a codebase is old doesn't mean it has a lot of tech debt; that's down to maintenance, discipline, and setting priorities. There was a blogger which kept tabs on what Apple's iOS (apps?) were being written in, showing a steady migration towards Swift, which tells me they're not just letting code sit and rot.
My issue with Solarpunk, given that it puts quite a bit of emphasis on wanting to inspire real world change is just how pastoral it always seems. When you see works inspired by it, it's always a nice walkable neighborhood with a bunch of cool eco friendly gadgetry[1] and so on.

It always seems very escapist to me, like a sort of techno Hobbingen view of the future. Is there a work in the Solarpunk genre that throws a Solarpunk society in a military confrontation? Especially today competitive and defense concerns again seem to drive energy and technological development.

don't forget per-app volume control, linear scroll wheel speed, some reasonable way to manage menu bar icons and ensure all can actually be accesses and used, a way to prevent the system from going to sleep (the built-in `caffeinate` command hasn't worked for years!), and searching through open windows by typing!
The editorialized title is also seriously misleading; it's hard to square "how does the Linux community respond?" with what looks like a single-person project that's cross platform:

> Cross-platform Support: OpenRecall works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, giving you the freedom to use it on your preferred operating system.

(and https://github.com/openrecall/openrecall/commits/main/ to see the "community" - don't get me wrong, this might become a community project and get wide support, but today it's one person's project)

Edit: Also, the HN title seems unreasonably accusatory; something to the effect of 'MS invaded user privacy, and now the Linux community is copying that', but there is a world of difference between a company with a track record of contempt for its users and their privacy pushing something as opt-out, vs a community building something that opt-in - Linux is about choice, and if a user decides to use something like this and it actually respects their privacy (which MS claimed to do, but why would you ever trust them?) then I could see it being a great feature.
I’ve been waiting for Apple to arrive. They bring so much polish and taste.

Two features I really want:

“Stop auto suggesting that word. I never use it, ever”

No, the last twenty years has show us that we can't.

If you want developers to perform ongoing work on their products, you need to accept a model where there's ongoing pay for that work.

Bitwarden gets my vote too.

Besides just working as expected, it importantly supports self-hosting. I don't currently make use of that, but have given it a try and it's great as well.

Having alternatives to the SaaS (currently very reasonably priced) is invaluable.
