That's an interesting argument. My intuition would've been the opposite: the title is much more likely to be dirty. 3 quick transactions in under a decade (and a fourth ongoing) means that many more opportunities for problems. Each transaction is a new opportunity involving a whole new set of people to be engaged in fraudulent conveyance or have a spouse pop out of the woodwork (as mentioned in OP).

Maybe he figured that the real safety comes from there being so many other people to sue given all the transactions...?

Keep in mind that when you become an expense rather than a source of revenue, the company is always looking for ways to cut costs and thus your position. Abuse by management and other employees is going to be given little attention. Boring "safe" jobs are often full of managers who wish to be somewhere else but cannot be, either due to skills or personality. In job roles where you're generating revenue, these types of managers get weeded out often as they're bad for retaining the company's revenue generating resources. Those same managers are tolerated and even seen somewhat positively in companies where the roles they supervise are expenses.
> I'm wondering how many of the Developer positions you have advertised will include evaluations of coding ability?

Probably most of them. There's no way to know for sure since there are so many companies hiring, but I can assure you that the vast majority of "real jobs" will confer a technical interview. Of those, most of the tech interviews are usually hosted in-house (in my experience).
So's drone striking a US citizen without a trial. We do it anyways. Now it's even explicitly protected by absolute immunity as an "official act" instead of just apathy.

It doesn't quite follow that you highlight the need for a political system to handle shifts, then suggest that amending the constitution is not such a form of flexibility, but a transformation into another country entirely.
> I'm not sure that's fair;

It's the way most distros handled security vulnerabilities, though. Without looking, I'm certain Ubuntu has a security advisory for that vulnerability.

So I agree it might not be fair on the face of it or if doing a technical analysis or something, but if you want to compare OpenBSD security to other Linux distros by vulnerability count, (and so many who don't know better do), then vulnerabilities should be measured in the same way across both systems.

> There’s definitely nothing legally stopping the president from doing this.

Ford famously pardoned Nixon, which would imply he believed Nixon would be subject to potential criminal liability. And I believe that should be the case.

> The only thing that can stop this is public perception and the threat of impeachment then removal by the Senate.

That’s certainly what the Supreme Court majority believes. I think that is woefully insufficient. You can abuse the powers of the President all you like, and the worst thing that can happen to you is you don’t get to be President anymore. If that’s the case, on the last day of their term, a President can simply say “selling pardons, $1M each”. The president will walk away rich, those pardons can’t be overturned by a future president, and Congress wouldn’t be able to impeach and remove them in enough time for it to matter.

What freight trains? ("In 2017, only about 5% of all freight in Japan is carried by rail ... Trucks carry about 50% and ships about 44%." [1]; "It is used relatively little for freight transport, accounting for just 0.84% of goods movement." [2])

Also it's apparently something they do. "And it’s not totally untested. The country’s Torigatayama limestone mine uses a 14-mile (23 km) belt, and in Africa a 62-mile (100 km) system moves phosphate between mine and port, SCMP notes."

I believe that 18 U.S.C. § 1385 specifically bans the US military from acting on US soil, full stop. And, while we are currently in permanent war post 9-11, in general the President needs to wait on an act of Congress to engage in deploying the military. I'm by no means a lawyer, much less a legal or constitutional scholar, but I think my question stands, maybe better written as:

Given that such acts are banned by law, (deployment of troops on US soil, for instance), how would a President who wanted to assassinate his rival be able to claim this occurred within his official capacity?

I would generally agree with the court that putting justices in charge of weighing Presidential motives isn't really a world we've had or would want. But others of course might disagree.

Money is fungible, it's pretty unreasonable to say that a given housing development is required because the state needs money to fund a railway. They could raise taxes or what have you.

Technologies: Generative AI, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js; many others that might not be as relevant.

Resume/CV:
I've been focused on gen AI since mid/late 2022 when I found out about ChatGPT. Have built multiple services, products and components with LLMs/agents and some image gen. A few demos of some of them on my Upwork profile.

I started learning programming as a kid and have spent the majority of time as a full-stack engineer largely with Node, JavaScript, TypeScript, Next.js etc. Recent years have been increasing Python usage. Could give a long list of languages and platforms that I have used in different phases or projects though. Most of which aren't particularly relevant or practiced now. But I am adaptable to different technologies (such as gen AI, which I try to leverage now in programming).

My main project right now is an agent framework (and hopefully someday platform) built with Python and Lit web components. I also started on a Rust one some time ago but decided there are more advantages for me with Python. The focus of my new framework is on customizing and sharing agents, services, plugins, etc. via registries. The plugins, services, agents, commands are working, registry is in progress.

I suspect as people start realising that the majority of these security patches are for bugs in things they never wanted nor needed on their system[1] or outside their threat model and thus present only to make their lives worse, thirdparty services like these will become more popular. Especially when they see what Win11 has become.

There have long been communities providing unofficial contributions (including drivers for newer hardware) for MS OSes going back to DOS, and their existence has always seemed to puzzle the FOSS advocates.

Relying on little more than its own misguided wisdom about the need for “bold and unhesitating action” by the President, ante, at 3, 13, the Court gives former President Trump all the immunity he asked for and more. Because our Constitution does not shield a former President from answering for criminal and treasonous acts, I dissent.

> This paper, released two weeks ago, used new modeling techniques to examine cores taken off the coast of California. Their findings show a much higher sensitivity between CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere and temperatures. The main conclusion is that with the doubling of CO2 we have experienced since the Industrial Revolution took off, we should expect a rise of 5-7C by the end of the century, instead of the 2-3C suggested by the IPCC.

As the paper notes in its closing discussion (quoted below), it seems to support the theory that there is much more warming to come. This paper also reinforces the conclusions of Hansen et al.'s Global Warming in the Pipeline (linked below) and a growing (but admittedly controversial) body of academic literature which finds that we may indeed be heading to a "hothouse Earth" future.

When we again weigh each sensitivity by the percent-area for the Earth, our global average ECS is 7.2 °C per doubling of CO2, much higher than the most recent IPCC estimates of 2.3 to 4.5 °C and consistent with some of the latest state-of-the-art models which suggest ca. 5.2 °C

Further, because I don't type in QWERTY, I noticed that _some_ shortcuts seem correctly mapped in my layout, but others are not. The Option+N shortcut for a new note just starts the "˜" combining character (expecting a following character like "n" to form "ñ") when using the "n" key in my layout. However it works if I use the physical "n" key (which is my "k").

I feel like that explanation is pretty poor, but yeah basically some shortcuts seem bound to the physical key location whereas others seem bound to the mapped key. I wonder if they are declared differently?

Nooks (https://nooks.ai) | Software Engineers (full-stack & backend/applied ML) | Full-time | Onsite in SF (hybrid)

Hi, I’m one of the founders of Nooks — we’re trying to re-invent how sales teams work with real-time collaboration and AI.

Nooks is:
- A virtual office: you can work from anywhere in the world, but still work with your team and get feedback and coaching like you’re sitting side-by-side.
- An AI co-pilot. We learn how your team works, identify “winning” strategies/behaviors, then share them with the whole team during and after calls!

We’re working on fun engineering challenges including complex distributed systems, low-latency algorithms & infrastructure, and modeling sales calls with large language models. You'll also have the chance to make a huge impact on our customers (sales reps who spend 80% of their work day on Nooks.)

Right now we’re a small team (~15 engineers) growing super quickly - doubling revenue every quarter, and recently hit $5M ARR!

Looking for experienced engineers who love tackling difficult product questions and working closely with customers. Excitement about language models, few-shot learning and other recent AI advances is also a plus :)

I’d love to chat: reach me at nikhil [at] nooks.in or apply at the link below: https://nooks.breezy.hr/p/bbc06c1a1bb4-software-engineer
Quoting the actual study:

> This effect was driven by the percentage of insight in the N1 group, which was 2.7 times higher (83.33%, 20 of 24 subjects) than in the Wake group (30.61%, 15 of 49; compared with N1 versus Wake: Fisher’s test, P < 0.001) and 5.8 times higher than in the N2 group (14.29%, 2 of 14, compared with N1 versus N2: Fisher’s test, P < 0.001). The percentage of individuals gaining insight was similar in the Wake and N2 groups (Fisher’s test, P = 0.32). Of note, only 3 of the 16 participants who found the rule before the break (excluded from the previous and remaining analyses) slept in N1 (without any signs of N2), strongly suggesting that there is no a priori relationship between a specific sleep/wake trajectory during the nap and general insight abilities.
Eventually people will realize any underdetermined system of equations has infinitely many solutions. Give me any open source AI model and I will beat any SOTA benchmark. Why am I so confident? Because curve fitting can be applied to any data set to get as good of a result as needed. Combine this approach with mixtures of "experts" and any predetermined set of benchmarks will fall to a curve fit to the benchmark.

The hype is really getting tiresome. There is no way to get from here to any intelligent system with the current techniques. New breakthroughs will require insights into discrete spaces which are not amenable to curve fitting with gradient descent.
1. You have to audit/trust any software whether or not it’s distributed as part of your OS

2. What is there to configure?

3. It’s a Go program, so compilation happens transparently on installation provided the developers don’t release broken code. This isn’t the C/C++ world where you have complex bespoke build systems that only seem to work on the developers’ machines.
> And, do you out-source the evaluation to a third party or do you have an in-house test?

As an early stage startup, the answer is no. We're primarily hiring engineers, and coding ability is one of the key metrics of their success. As an early founder I find it hard to outsource the evaluation of one of key hiring decisions.
What got us here is a huge percentage of the population feeling disenfranchised and cut off by a condescending elite. A sociopathic demagogue recognized those people and made them feel seen, and you and the Democratic party still just don't get it. That's why we're here, and we'll stay here as long as the Left continues to condescend to them.
