As a counter point, I've also seen plenty people too focused on doing every little step up to some imagined standards that they never get to complete anything — basically, life intervenes and they got to leave with nothing really done at all.

I am personally goal motivated: I like achieving and building things (I enjoy the process in as much as I got the better of it :)). When things are complex, I come up with smaller goals that are on the path to getting the big thing done, all the while thinking how these things fit together.

This has made me great at coming up with iterative steps where each step brings value: even if I stop at any one point, I have done something useful.

In your example, I would probably dismantle the car enough to get the engine out and rebuilt and back in, and then go back to it sometime in the future to work on other stuff, all the while keeping a functioning car as I am rebuilding it.
I don't know how anyone could forget this given how much advertising has made the internet unusable.
Corrected wording or not, I think this is simply wrong. A quick Google tells me that median income in LA is $78k (sounds about right given the US household median is $60ish) and per Zillow average LA rent[1] is $2800, so about half that.

One of the biggest problems with meme-driven economics like this (and HN is ground zero for this kind of logic) is the extent to which people just don't cite numbers anymore.

There is some truth here: property values in high-income US cities are growing faster than incomes. And that's a problem, and worth discussing. But that discussion can't happen until people stop with the hyperbole. And needless to say, without discussion there can be no solution. (Which, after all, serves the evolutionary goal of the meme!)

[1] Which surely reflects an average occupancy of 1.5-2 people, so needs to be adjusted even farther downward.
It would be nice if they said what kind of filter to use. Would a paper filter from a coffee brewer do the job? Or do you need a fancier filter like campers use, to remove bacteria from pond water? Does the water still have to be boiling hot when you filter it? That's fine for coffee filters, not great for the other kind. I saw a mention of metal strainers but it wasn't clear whether that was only for larger chunks of scale.
Key word is "so far" it is never worth it. Crack is worth it "so far" heroin too. The problem with these things has never been in the "so far" portion, things that have significant problems in the "so far" region typically dont need much banning, because people can see negative impacts during their uncertainty based waiting period. certain drugs like steroids extract a toll no one willingly pays long after uncertainty wears off. It is absolutely not worth it, I support your right to use steroids but only if you and others are being real about it. You should be allowed to smoke, but you should also be fully aware of the issues involved, otherwise it not an informed decision being made.

Sure, I'm fine with that. It just makes sense. Newspapers have been thought to be ad companies for centuries.
Where I worked there was a bit of concern, but no panic. The development teams at my then employer spent a few months (not full time) looking for potential problems; they found a couple and quickly fixed them. But it wasn't full-on running around in terror.
I don't think so.

Theyre differentiating goals from quests, where goals are daily minutia, get a haircut, something you'd suggest you need to do this week, where as quests are bigger loftier goals, what would you do in the next two years? Learn to fly a plane.

The quests are still goals they just want to categorise it apart from meaningless low value goals.

Another part of it seems to be the approach, breaking it down into blocks and creating a plan to achieve it in your currently available time instead of putting it off.

I think that aspect is indirectly covered, as one of the main motivation was to get on a popular platform that helps hiring.

I agree on how it's technically a waste of time to pursue fads, but it's also a huge PITA to have a platform that good engineers actively try to avoid, as their careers would stagnate (even as they themselves know that it's half a fad)
The cited regulation[1] defines a "high clearance four-wheel-drive vehicle" as

A Jeep, sport utility vehicle (SUV), or truck type with at least 15-inch tire rims and at least eight inches of clearance from the lowest point of the frame, body, suspension, or differential to the ground. Four wheel drive vehicles have a driveshaft that can directly power each wheel at the same time and a transfer case that can shift between powering two wheel or four wheels in low or high gear. All wheel drive (AWD) vehicles do not meet this definition.

First, note that all recent Crosstrek models have 17" wheels and minimum ground clearance of 8.7" or more, so the only potential issue is "all wheel drive".

The last sentence is at best non-normative, so the actual requirements appear to be:

1. The ability to power all four wheels at once.

2. A drivetrain that includes a transfer case capable of switching between two- and four-wheel drive and, in four-wheel-drive mode, between two distinct gear ratios.

In particular, the regulation says nothing about differential locks.

Obviously the Crosstrek has (1), but not (2), so the citation is valid.

OTOH, (2) not only excludes Subaru-style all-wheel-drive systems and AFAIK all electric vehicles, but also several full-time four-wheel drive vehicles clearly designed for off-road use, including the Toyota Land Cruiser[2] and the military-issue AM General HMMVW[3], for no other reason than the lack of a two-wheel drive mode.

Then your get dropout problems and by the time there is an effect you don't have the statistical power to detect it. You need 3-6 months on an AD, psychiatic, metabolic, or autoimmune drug to see a Real effect so that is how long you must wait to ramp the dose. It could take years to go from a conservative guaranteed nontoxic dose to an effective one. But in that time most patientss will have gotten tired of waiting and switched drugs, moved to a new city and dropped out of the trial, or die. Sure it could work for some things like antimicrobials or erectile dysfunction drugs that have a rapid response, but that isn't where most of the drug development is. It is in those categories I listed.

//If anything, from that perspective, it's the taking of the term "American" by one country to the exclusion of others and then denying the existence of the single continent from which their own name is derived what can seem "culturally imperialistic".

You have a very imperial hispanic perspective as far as I can tell. The natives in present-day Canada didn't know if South America was even there or who the Incans were.

Your description of North and South America being 'America' is the imposition of hispanic imperialism on Anglo-America and the natives. I don't find this acceptable as that is unjust.

//Yet, the U.S. doesn't recognize the continents of the world like that. That's picking and choosing where you care about geology. It's kind of hypocritical.

I don't impose my Anglo views on Eurasia as you are upon me. I've only made strong statements about my own continent. You do have strong views on Europe and Asia, and I doubt they appreciate hispanic imperialism either.

//and historically America has always been a single continent, at least for likely most of its inhabitants.

You keep repeating this but it doesn't make it true. There are no records that the Inuit ever knew about the Incans, but assuming they did, do you have records indicating they considered them part of the same continent? I think in absence of such records, we can assume they would be sensible people that would agree with the North and South American distinction. As they are not a part of the world that lives within their heads an era of peak hispanic imperialism such as 1492.

For anyone who thinks this is a laundry list - running two instances of your app with a database means you need almost all of the above.

The _minute_ you start running containers in the cloud you need to think of "what happens if it goes down/how do I update it/how does it find the database", and you need an orchestrator of some sort, IMO. A managed service (I prefer ECS personally as it's just stupidly simple) is the way to go here.
I don't trust anyone who uses camelCase to write Python. Or, unnecessary while loops.

But, sometimes you can improve built in functions. I found that using a custom (but simple) string-to-int function in golang is a bit quicker than strconv.formatInt() for decimal numbers.

So, there's that.

Python isn't really supposed to be geared towards performance. I like the language, but only see articles like this as resume fodder.

I wonder how well USA state agencies are doing in their efforts to map sea level rise, flooding, etc. and if they take into account development.

On reflection, I think a more likely explanation is that Facebook just harvested, used and shared your WhatsApp metadata. Metadata analysis doesn't seem to count as an invasion of privacy in the modern world.

So while you and your friend chatted about this college, perhaps your friend googled it.

FB might then share with Google that you connected with your fiend at that particular time, and Google connected your exchange with the search.

Of course this assumes there is some way to tie your FB and Google accounts together - like matching up shared FB & Google tracker journeys across the internet.

I really hope people don't do this. Or at least not try to sell it as ARM vs RISC-V tests.

Because what you are really testing is the Cortex-M33 vs the Hazard 3, and they aren't equivalent.

They might both be 3 stage in-order RISC pipelines, but Cortex-M33 is technically superscalar, as it can dual-issue two 16bit instructions in certain situations. Also, the Cortex-M33 has a faster divider, 11 cycles with early termination vs 18 or 19 cycles on the Hazard 3.
This reminds me of a discussion on Twitter about this. Macintosh System 7 that had an app called Stapler, early Mac OS X had one called LaunchList both contained aliases to apps and documents. So I see the benefit of the OS managing this grouping.

Discussion of this topic from the most balanced and nuanced source I've seen.
Keycloak is a pain to set up, and its configuration tends to get quite messy — besides, we try to cover integrations into the entire stack (frontend to the database).

I keep repeating this comparison throughout this thread, but Stack is to Keycloak/Ory/etc. what Clerk is to Auth0.

Though, I regularly recommend Keycloak in sales calls when I talk to larger companies willing to invest time and effort into a custom IdP. We are not really looking to replace those use cases.
Muddled through for a decade with a vague sense that nothing worked as I expected it to. Gradually realised there are many variations with different behaviour, obfuscated by dreadful documentation and emergent behaviour in the implementations.

Then wrote a regex engine. It's now extremely obvious how regular expressions work as they're very simple. The spurious divergence in syntax and semantics is still infuriating but at least I know what they're supposed to be desugaring to now. Recommended as a worthwhile exercise.

Regular expressions have "generate a letter of the alphabet" as a primitive. It might be ascii and use 'b' to generate that letter, or a hex escape like \x42 or similar. The notation varies a bit. Another primitive is "generate the empty string".

Then there are compound operations. One regex or another, one followed by another. Intersection, complement. All the set operations, for the reason that a regular expression is literally a notation for a set of strings.

Some things like "lookahead" are notation for intersection. The match previous construct, \2 or similar, takes you out of regular expressions but works like checking equality on the fly.

Finally anchors, $ or ^ etc, are specific to the match problem. It's still find an element of the denoted set but with some extra constraints on where the element can occur.

I'm pretty sure that's all of it. How anchors interact with the set description is a nuisance but seems well formed - I haven't bothered to work through that part yet because I'm mostly interested in string generation, not matching.
I'm working on digital transformation for a traditional company. Challenges are from both culture (80%) and technology (20%, EDIFACT/COBOL is ok, not the worst part for us). Traditional companies can retain talent -- they definitely can compete with big tech if they want to. Especially in current tech talent market, you still have a good window to hire enough talents.
A few key questions that you need to answer:
- Can you get support from the top (board/CEO) to modernize HR to create competitive comp structure?
- Can you identify real engineering leaders that can commit to the job? -- You can't just hire non-hands-on random middle managers. Good engineers don't want to work for politicians.
- Do you have political stability to invest in the transformation long-term (3yr+ or more if you are more massive)?
> but only see articles like this as resume fodder.

Not super important, but i think it's worth calling out. Some of us program because it's fun. We dig into problems like this because it scratches an itch. We share in the hopes of interacting with like-minded individuals. Not everything is about resumes.
Assuming you mean “decent” toolchain, it’s actually pretty decent. Could it use some polish? Yes. But any decent ML engineer would be able to get a high performance server (or a batch job) running in a relatively short time. Or in almost no time at all if using a lot of the FOSS models. You just basically create a model in PyTorch and then hand it over to Gaudi stuff which patches it with optimized, Gaudi specific ops and converts things into an inference graph.

“Closeness to CUDA” is less important for inference because all the experimentation is already done by then, and if need be you could just implement the model using Gaudi ops to begin with, in a span of a few days including tuning and debugging.

Look at the unemployment numbers.

“Pays Pennies” is a common English phrase that means “a job that doesn’t pay well”. I.e. jobs they pay at or slightly above the minimum wage.

Why should native workers be displaced by those seeking asylum simply because the people seeking asylum are willing to work at OR BELOW minimum wage? I sympathize with their plight but to pretend that many of them aren’t economic migrants vs those who are actually fleeing imminent danger seems naive.

And before the argument is made: I absolutely support crippling fines for those employers who KNOWINGLY hire under the table to skirt minimum wage laws.
Another way I've encountered this is performance vs results. Performance is the things you do that you believe will lead to results. Results aren't always in your control (especially in competitive environments), but performance absolutely is. It's a lot easier to feel you are getting somewhere when you focus on things that you control.
We know so little about out subconscious that this simply seems alarmist. Maybe TV really does rot our brain, maybe it's better to answer kids's questions about everything and expose them to it rather than set age restrictions.

So, did the board survive? No mention of it in the article.

Got to wonder about headlines like this, seems the standard these days is get as close to a clickbait title as you can without crossing the line. The inclusion of "Russian" especially has weird implications, is this something that is actually very common in other nationalities which Russia had stood strong against up until now? I find the headline far more interesting than the article which really does not add much in the way of information or clear up all the ambiguities implied by the headline.

Yes but not in the way your dog analogy argues. The reality is that anything humans chose to do is be definition in our nature so strict environmental policy is not a limit on our behavior, it is our behavior.

Of course, but you have to accept that our desire to preserve nature is selfish or else you end up seeing humanity as a cancer to be destroyed instead of the most advanced part of nature to be promoted.
