I'm pretty sure the systems big companies and recruiters use to initially filter/screen applications already do that, with "AI." If not their ATS provider is right now selling new AI features to them.

I expect that companies that have systems that can (supposedly) detect AI-generated applications, resumes, and cover letters will reject those without acknowledgment. The false positives will spawn a new wave of "Why do companies ghost me?" posts here and on Reddit et al.

I work for a company that uses a service to detect plagiarism, and that service got updated about two years ago to detect AI-generated content. How well that works doesn't really matter, because the person submitting the document that got flagged stands guilty until they prove their innocence.

Whether these systems/services can reliably detect AI-generated content or not doesn't matter. It makes little difference to the employer if they lose a few real applicants along the way -- collateral damage. Like I wrote before it just becomes an arms race, with the people genuinely trying to get a job losing. Job hunting turns into a race to the bottom, one set of bots sending spam to another set of bots trying to weed through it. Sending lots of applications and resumes out in hopes of getting a bite already describes one of the worst ways to get a job, and it just gets worse.
See things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ask_for_Angela

In principle, information about this could be propagated, if it's reliably available on UK govt sites at this point (I'm not sure if it is).
The individual has impunity of the department has impunity?

Not sure if you know this, but it might be of interest: in the UK speech, within the House of Commons (maybe the Lords too? I'm unsure) is specifically protected from defamation actions. An MP could stand up and say "Mr Smith murders kittens in his spare time" and Mr Smith would have no ability to sue. However, this does not apply to MPs outside of parliament.
When there’s feature parity, what’s the next differentiator for you? For me, performance.

Though I admit another important aspect is community adoption. If your 3rd-party dependency uses zod internally, well now you’re bundling in both, and the added network latency probably negates any performance improvement you were getting in a web app. That’s why I wish libraries would use something more generic that allows you to dependency-inject what you’re already using, like https://github.com/decs/typeschema
It's not just moderation. As of one week ago, my stories disappeared and now I have to go into Settings > Archive, to see who viewed them, or delete them, etc. Not only that, but everyone I follow's stories also disappeared unless I go to their profile to view them. Also, IG won't refresh if I pull down. I have to close the app then reopen.
> including the near total collapse of their economy.

I am not here to shill for Russia, but this is certainly not true. The Russian economy has proven much more resilient than anyone expected since the start of coordinated global sanctions by the world's most developed economies. It is currently growing about 4% per year.
Archive.org is completely down
Yes. It's a spectrum. In the worst case, quantum computers only help us gain a deep understanding of quantum physics. In the best case, they beat classical computers on optimizations problems as well. Materials science falls somewhere along this spectrum.
I have worked with so-called “product minded” engineers who 1) do nothing, 2) do what they want, or 3) try to tell product how to do their job. It is dysfunction at its finest.
> This seems like such a contrived scenario

Agreed. I suspect the number of people assisted by this button is vanishingly small, and outweighed by the number of people who don't get the information they're looking for because they accidentally click the button and can't find their way back.

Or the number of people harmed because the "exit this page" UI is on some pages only (for example, it isn't here on HN), and that is even more confusing for users who aren't tech savvy enough to realise its part of the site not the browser and who could come to rely on it.

Overall, I think this button is poor UX and shouldn't be used, even on pages with sensitive content that it is intended for.
The staff professional network thing is limited in scale. I love my job but am I going to burn goodwill spamming people to apply and then there are 50-1 odds per person I contact applying and maybe 1000-1 that they will get offered and accept a job. So I annoy 1000 people (most I barely know) to get $5k bonus. Or I just don't bother.

Exception: high up moves to a company and brings a bunch of henchmen along. But this has its own issues around bias/fairness. Have you been trojaned?
Yes I don't think they invent words, that really would be bad.

> For example, I wouldn't say I'm "financially affiliated" with GitHub/Microsoft

it says "financially or otherwise". I'd say the wise thing to do is to delete your account if you have one (I just deleted mine). The only people who are going to benefit from this farce are the lawyers, users are irrelevant right now.

Edit: when I say "users are irrelevant" I mean specifically the .org ones. At least some of the .com ones are paying customers so I think that's a different situation.
That's the idea! We use a sophisticated combination of vision models and LLMs to accurately parse, extract, and validate data from complex documents. Our mission is to outperform competing document understanding models in terms of accuracy and speed for specific document types, such as bank statements and bills of lading, among others.
Most people just want to get something done and reach for the tools that will most straightforwardly and simply get them to their destination. Niche stuff doesn’t have the market fit because you’ll always have a hard time finding people to work on your product that don’t cost twice as much as everyone else, unless it’s 10x faster gtm / 10x cheaper. Seems obvious enough.

Personally? I like good typesystems and very sharp tooling. It has seemed to me that Elixir has neither, and doesn’t really offer me a particularly big advantage that would outweigh those disadvantages.
The Why of Crazy Stupid Tech
I'm working on a keyboard. What improvements would you make?
There's plenty of examples like that though. A Python programmer might not know to compile in release mode. They might not use buffering when reading from a file. They might pass around copius copies of Vec<T> instead of &[T]. The list could go on and on.
You can also request the model list to check the validity of a key. No tokens needed.
I think all the major browsers can be configured to prompt before quitting.

Bloomberg's 7 Powers and why The Terminal dominates financial markets
Sure, but they're a tiny fraction of the mainstream users and you can already have that sort of experience with blogging and microblogging. Relevant social networks as the public knows them are hard to develop local-first. Even the humble forum where strangers meet to discuss is really hard to do that way. If it needs centralized moderation, or a relevance system via karma / votes, it's hard.
There is a lot of embarassing pro-Zionist material archived on IA, but scrubbed elsewhere from the Internet:

https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=zionist...

So just to play devils advocate, since Zionism is being critically received all across the Internet - it is more likely that IA was attacked in order to censor those materials, and then a sockpuppet was created to shift the blame to pro-palestinian voices - which makes no sense, since pro-palestinian voices would want IA to stay up so that embarassing Zionist material was made more available - but such is the nature of agitprop campaigns during war time: through subterfuge and obfuscation, deny your enemy the materials it requires to continue its campaigns, and also deny them the ability to identify the cause of that material going missing, also - or, at the very least, obfuscate the actors responsible for denying it, using sockpuppetry ..
How much effort do Chrome and Android require from a company the size of Google? It's a genuine question.

Jolla/Sailfish make a mobile operating system with a handful of people, and even though that system pretty minimal, I'd say the added value on the Android side is the ecosystem of apps and porting to devices, which is done by other developers and manufacturers than Google. And I'm not sure how many people work on Firefox itself on any given day.

I guess it's just really hard to get a clear picture on what all those people in large companies are really doing day to day. The overhead must be enormous, and likely a lot of engineering effort is thrown at the wall to see what sticks.
And even if a correlation was to be found on average, it doesn't really say anything about the individuals or median levels or many other nuances.

I think we can all agree on the base level that there are intelligent people who are kind, and there are intelligent people who are very not kind. And then there's intelligent people who are kind only for the reasons that it makes them succeed, not for pure altruistic reasons.

Not to mention if intelligent people are able to make more income and therefore have the capability to share a portion of it while less intelligent will try to get by and don't have time or resources to help others.
I think you make some excellent points here. Small nitpick: According to the Ukrainian gov't, they can currently produce half that amount: 150k per month. That is still an incredible number.

I do think this war must be making any sufficiently advanced military rethink their ground game to include a lot of cheap FPV drones with attached explosives.
Yes sir! I've just bookmarked the series... Priceless!
Right now I'm downloading "sonoma_bottle" build through the homebrew. So they already build versions for every supported macos version. I'm pretty sure that macos libc will not remove functions in the minor upgrade, and having 2-3 builds for currently supported OSes is not a big deal.

An eavesdropper able to intercept connections could record your password in transit but would only get the current 2FA token which quickly becomes useless. But with TLS eavesdroppers are not a realistic concern for most people so the actual benefit is still questionable.
> it says "financially or otherwise".

So to be 100% clear, it says this (verbatim):

> I am not affiliated with WP Engine in any way, financially or otherwise.

So "affiliated" is used for "any way", "financially" and "otherwise". Not "financially affiliated, or otherwise".

It seems pretty clear to me that it's for people that have an actual two-way relationship somehow to WP Engine, not customers, as you don't say you're "affiliated" with someone just because you're a user/customer.
Fuck so I need to put SQL in my CV? Do I also need to say "can eat with cutlery"? You probably filter out people who explain their impact in the CV rather than keyword soup.

We need something like driving tests for this basic stuff. Do it every 10 yrs. Standard vocational qualifications that all companies accept. Likena forklift.
You kinda accept life for what it is. People come and go, and nothing is permanent against time. Except perhaps concepts and ideas, things that aren't physical.

The thought of being unable to make deep connections seems sad and pessimistic to me. Focus on the good parts.

"Isn't "your coworkers are not your friends, and your work is not your life" kind of depressing, capitalism-realistic, take?"

To me, it's just healthy countermessaging to the "we're all a big family" message that corporations tend to send out. We're all a big family... as long as that message helps you identify with the corporation you work for, and makes you behave as if you had an actual stake in the company. As soon as you are no longer useful to the company, though, you're gone. It's a one-way relationship.

Most of the "friends" you make at work are friends of convenience. They're friends merely because you spend a lot of time together. It's a backwards relationship. In a healthy friendship, you find people you like, then you decide to spend time together. In a "work friendship", you are forced to spend time together, so you decide that you're friends.

Sometimes it works out, because you also actually like each other, but most of the friendships you make at work will stop being friendships when you no longer work together. In my opinion, it's emotionally unhealthy to confuse "work friendship" with real friendship, where people actually care for you, and when your dad dies, don't just immediately go back to normal after posting condolences on Microsoft Teams.
Some great suggestions in the article. The best ones I think are to stay focused and not jump to another idea and to focus on marketing.

Both are hard for folks who enjoy building. If you want to make money you have to grow in the opposite direction and grind.

> JavaScript did deliver its promise of unbreakable sandbox

Aren't its VM implementations routinely exploited? Ranging from "mere" security feature exploits, such as popunders, all the way to full on proper VM escapes?

Like even in current day, JS is ran interpreted on a number of platforms, because JIT compiling is not trustworthy enough. And I'm pretty sure the interpreters are no immune either.

QUIC has TLS built into it, and also (http) streams, and a few other such goodies (say, masque - tunneling).

I've already mentioned ChromeOS as one counter-example.

SerenityOS and Ladybird browser forked but until recently had a lot of overlap.

LG's WebOS is used on a range of devices, derived from the Palm Pre WebOS released in 2009.

The gigantic special OS is baggage which already has been cut loose numberous times. Yes you can run some fine light Linux OS'es in 4GB but man, having done the desktop install for gnome or kde, they are not small at all, even if their runtime is ok. And most users will then go open a web browser anyways. It's unclear to me why people clutch to the legacy native app world, why this other not-connected mode of computing has such persistent adherency to it. The web ran a fine mobile OS in 2009; Palm Pre rocked. It could today.

If the plugin is downloadable from caddy's site, it can also be updated in place along with the caddy binary. (There's an option to keep the same plugins)
I... Don't think that's right? Although I would appreciate being corrected with some good sources on this. It's a fast moving field and combinatorial chemistry is still new enough that many recently published structures wouldn't have used it.

I'm well aware of the impact of natural products and particularly plant secondary metabolites in drug discovery. I'm also aware of combinatorial synthesis occasionally hitting structures that are close to natural products.

But from first principles, why would you need to limit yourself to that subset of molecular space?

Obviously, your structure will need to look vaguely biochemical to be compatible with the bodies chemical environment, but natural products are limited to biochemically feasible syntheses, and are therefore dominated by structures derived from natural amino acids and similar basic biochemical building blocks.

For a concrete example off the top of my head, I'm not aware of any natural diazepines - the structure looks "organic" but biochemistry doesn't often make 7-rings, and those were made long before combinatorial chemistry. Might be wrong on this one, since there's so much out there, but I think it holds.
SETI Researchers Engage in First Real-Time AI Search for Fast Radio Bursts
I worked for Cognizant for a couple of years on multiple engagements, and I'm not Indian. I saw different things, and obviously there was some dynamic around ethnicity, from 'I'll only hire Indians because they work harder' to Indian boss abusing another Indian programmer while excluding me. I was somewhat advanced level, though, maybe that played a role, so for me personally it was an overall OK time. Overall it's good that this conversation eventually happening, I think, it's in everybody's interest.
> A plumber isn’t going to refuse adding another bathroom to your house

Many plumbers will definitely refuse doing some things. They will tell you something like "we don't do that sort of work" and tell you to find someone else.
> I have to use my meat brain to figure out if I've handled all the exceptions that might come up

The point of exceptions is exactly that you don't want to handle all that might come up -- you need to handle only those that you actually expect and know how to handle. Everything else is left to bubble up and either be handled by a custom, generic top-level handler, or by the language's default mechanism (in Python's case, dumping a stack trace).

I'm talking about what I see online since the war started. I don't know nor I followed the culture of Othering between Russia and Ukraine before that.
As I said, it's my personal experience, so it's not really up to you to say if it's a lie.
In the sausage haus they'll spell it bleu cheese on the menu, and it's there and then that reality starts to fray.
I haven’t seen this work in my experience. If you are going to threaten to delay a project for 6 months you really need to deliver or you are just burning product’s faith in you.

I’ve seen this strategy play out and the result is just a deteriorating trust between product and engineering, “we really needed to wait 6 months for this?”

IMO it is a negotiation but the answer to that isn’t “threaten product with huge timelines.” Folks really need to come together and understand which parts of the architecture roadmap *can* be band-aided for now and which can be completed properly within the context of the product’s upcoming needs.

AI Neocloud Playbook and Anatomy
My critique was too. Makes no sense to identify with a category you don't actually belong to.
There were a bunch of things missing from OPs description around the security considerations of Wasm but it has a lot of other stuff on top of what the browser provides when it’s executing JavaScript.

The primary one is its idea of a “capability model” where it basically can’t do any kinds of risky actions (I.e touch the outside world via the network or the file system for example) unless you give it explicit permissions to do so.

Beyond that it has things like memory isolation etc so even an exploit in one module can’t impact another and each module has its own operating environment and permission scope associated with it.
Does the IA publish hashes of its data to a 3rd party, so we could (in principle) verify that nothing has been tampered with?
That really isn't that common, IMHO and speaks volumes about his empathy. Its true that my 6-month backpacking experiences are 14 and 16 years old and India is rather a continent on its own, not only population wise but also culturally and geographically so don't want to generalize here.

I've seen utter ignorance from ie older girls to stray dogs dying in the middle of the street, while I was reeling from mild shock sitting on the curb. I guess after few years there I would be desensitised too. Cows have it easy there, other animals not so much by western standards.

Its true that stray dogs specifically are also a potential threat, the picture ain't black & white.
