> The incentive is to make sure you get placed fast.

No. If you place someone and the company has a 3 month probation period. If the person does not last past probation the recruiter does not get paid.

Unless America is different, this is how it works in Europe, Asia, AU/NZ.

The only time this changes is contract work because contract work done via a recruiter is the recruiter might charge you at $150/hr to the company and pay you $100/hr taking $50/hr for himself.

The point was that countries clearly recognize standards that aren't bound to an ISO (or other international standards) process, given that every country in the world uses TCP, HTTP, and HTML.

(Unless we're now considering the IETF/W3C an international standards body? I can't find a good list of these anywhere.)

It is true that sufficient exercise can boost the immune system to where it can fight off a chesty invasion within a few hours, but the level of exercise required for a sufficient effect is intense exercise daily, not just moderate exercise, but also without going overboard to the point where it is a detriment. And yes, I agree about the other factors, but they're insufficient without intense exercise.
It’s MIDI
What do you mean? What is an example of it not being used alone?
Also: accept that what you make is ephemeral. No one pauses in the middle of building a sand castle on the beach and wonders if their sand-sculpting skills are adequate. Anything you make, even if it becomes one of humanity’s most cherished works (extremely unlikely!) is not going to be here for very long. So enjoy the process, put it out in the world, and maybe a person or two will appreciate it before the waves wash it away.
Hmmm. Here's details about using CAS as an OpenID Connect provider: https://apereo.github.io/cas/7.0.x/authentication/OIDC-Authe...

Looks like it doesn't support multiple issuers: " CAS primarily supports a single issuer per deployment/host." Have you run into any issues with that?

It also looks like it supports a number of optional standards: DPoP, JARM, PAR. Have you seen use cases for these?

No shit it doesn't offer proportional gains, this was part of the scaling laws from the very beginning. There are of course diminishing returns, it doesn't mean it's not worth pursuing or that there won't be useful returns from scaling.

Everyone out there is saying these reports are very misleading. Pretty sure it's just sensationalizing the known diminishing returns.

nobody serious uses indentation as a bad point against Python. Ruby pretty much could work with indentation instead of "end" almost without drawbacks. Maybe irb would be slightly less convenient, and that's it. Whitespace IS significant in ruby too, it's just goes so much along with the programmer's intuition that it rarely bites anyone.

> He spends 95% of his energy trying to take down the merits of NN-based approaches.

The 95% figure comes from where? (I don't think the commenter above has a basis for it.)

How often does Marcus-the-writer take aim at NN-based approaches? Does he get this specific?

I often see Gary Marcus highlighting some examples where generative AI technologies are not as impressive as some people claim. I can't recall him doing the opposite.

Neither can I recall a time when Marcus specifically explained why certain architectures are {inappropriate or irredeemable} either {in general or in particular}.

Have I missed some writing where Marcus lays out a compelling multi-sided evaluation of AI systems or companies? I doubt it. But, please, if he has, let me know.

Marcus knows how to cherry-pick failure. I'm not looking for a writer who has staked out one side of the arguments. Selection bias is on full display. It is really painful to read, because it seems like he would have the mental horsepower to not fall into these traps. Does he not have enough self-awareness nor intellectual honesty to write thoughtfully? Or is this purely a self-interested optimization -- he wants to build an audience, and the One-Sided Argument Pattern works well for him.
Themes are great, but they're surface level and don't change the numerous little behavioral/UX differences between KDE and whichever version of Windows. They also require the user to have gotten as far as to discover that KDE supports themes and downloading, installing, and enabling the theme.

That's why I think a fork that implements the requisite changes would be of value.
Specifically, illegal immigrants who are not subject to a lung scan. As for legal immigrants, they're already fully subject to a lung scan, although a ten year visa adds risk.
It sounds like a powergrab to me, but there's some nuance to it. Look at it this way:

> Your materials for the event must not imply that the event is officially endorsed or run by the Rust Project or Rust Foundation unless you have written permission.

You can't imply an event is official without permission. Very reasonable. Not a powergrab. This is the same sort of thing that Firefox does to prevent modified versions of Firefox from being called Firefox.

> For commercial events (including sponsored ones), please check in with us.

But then there's this. This implies that there are extra rules for an event that is "commercial" even if it does not try to pretend to be an official event; merely using the trademark and being a commercial event would compel you to adhere to some other set of rules, which they didn't even write in the policy.

On its face, that doesn't sound unreasonable, but I imagine the net cast over what counts as "commercial events" probably makes very few reasonable events possible that wouldn't fall under this umbrella.

It's an interesting choice in my opinion.

In reality most candidate are just bad at estimating their own skills (in both directions) and of course they know almost nothing about the match between the skills and the position.

This mirrors my experience. I am the accounting manager responsible for updating these dashboards at my saas employer. Troubleshooting powerbi errors during month-end close is the most stress-inducing thing. And whenever management wants a dashboard edit, we have to somehow know that the spreadsheets being fed the powerbi cloud data will also change. Maybe an extra row inserted into the pivot table of ARR by product. Now any formulas directly referencing the cells rather than using XLOOKUP are pointing to the wrong product category. I was chewed out hard for that one a few days ago even though IT made that change, since it updated our report after review. TLDR: Powerbi suck, use a data warehouse and SQL for data transformations.
Do modern filesystems not implement fancy error-correcting codes? If not why?
I don't think we can argue in good faith that those forks are publicly distributing a modified version of the rust programming language, unless they actually publish releases.
> It feels like spreadsheet software is a particularly hard arena to compete in, given the quality of the major ones you mentioned.

It’s not just a feeling. A basic Porter’s analysis, especially with a 6th force, reveals how nearly impossible it is to compete effectively (now) in the spreadsheet software market given the dominance of the major players.

Yes because clearly this is how automation works. Never mind that we've improved efficiencies many orders of magnitude over the last century and people still work the exact same amount of hours.

We could automate the world and then we'd all be stuck rolling a cube up and hill and back down. We will work, no matter what, even in the face of post-scarcity utopia.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that this has more to do with grifters and griefers than it does about power. Those are people who have the potential to create a lot of expensive headaches or public relations headaches for the organizations supporting their respective languages since the grifters and griefers are only concerned about their own motivations (profit or otherwise).

C++ is an entirely different thing. Even though it is backed by a standards body, it is far less centralized. Most people associate C++ with a language and I doubt that there are very many people who view it as a project backed by a particular organization.

Perfectionism is a problem that a lot of us have, and it stops us from failing enough times to perfect ourselves. Finishing a failure is a success. Somebody reading your blog entry and hating it is successfully attracting a reader. Somebody telling you how terrible something you wrote was is successfully attracting a reader and inspiring a reaction.

If the substance of the bad review hurts, it means you've communicated something clearly enough that it was easy to pick apart. If you understand and accept the criticism about how you were wrong, now you have a better chance of being right.

This is Hillary Rettig's specialty; she largely focuses on being kind to yourself, and getting out of your own ass. The world isn't ending when you fail.

Why not disclose it and also say "it's not up for any negotiation".
The usual argument is that bracketed syntax rather than indentation-based syntax makes it possible/easier to have multi-line anonymous functions (such as with Ruby's block syntax), and especially to use them within more complex expressions.

Pythonistas generally consider that a misfeature.
It also lacks scene consistency. E.g. in the France level I walked into the cathedral (arrow on the building visible at the starting location) and got really confused as the exit was nowhere to be seen (I turned 180° and it wasn't there), arrow icon was on a stained glass window.

And if we're going for a wishlist, I'd say it's a shame there's no WebXR support. It has stereoscopic mode already, so WebXR feels like a natural choice.^K Never mind, just realized it's not a software project - just an art project on some platform.
Although I disagree with the arbitrary limit of “one day per feature”, I agree with the broader point that useful constrains drive creativity.

The Rust Trademark Policy is still harmful
There isn’t an official “probationary period” at most jobs in the US.

But we are referring to cases where a good candidate wants $20k more. The recruiter is more interested in convincing a candidate to take the job than negotiating hard for them to get $220K.

The candidate especially in this market isn’t likely to jump ship in a year over $20K
I'm skeptical of the idea that they could be thought to have kept their culture. Even through records we see massive changes over time.

Anyway, oral transmission can be extremely durable over time.
Fargren is asking why a recruiter would want to to withhold information.

Your answer is "More information always helps." That doesn't answer the question.
I recently started a blog after having the same feeling for years.

What changed for me was accepting that my posts aren’t going to be polished and it’s okay if they don’t front page HN.

I just jot down notes, organize them in an outline and publish it.

I figure eventually, as I feel more comfortable with it, I’ll polish up my posts more and more.
It wasn’t the annunciation,

I don't know why HN has this wild idea that a potential WW3 costing millions of lives would be any way altered because TSMC is ~3-4 years ahead of Samsung/Intel. Entire world would lag by years if not decade if US defends Taiwan in case of full on attack.

So many venues these days do not have an in person option for buying tickets. (And they often still charge convenience fees to add salt into the wound.)
I'm glad you found it helpful. I don't know you or your SO at all, so here are some general thoughts that help me:

> I have a hard time making the decision between listening mode and problem solving mode. Surely there are times when problem solving mode is helpful?

All I can tell you is that everyone seems to have this thought and the endless drive to insert themselves into the conversation, and we all find endless rationalizations and opportunities and exceptions - this time is special! - that will allow it. Me too. Recognize the drive; zip it. 'No, this time is not an exception - again'; just zip it.

It also means your attention, your thoughts, your emotion are focused on yourself, your ideas, your drive to talk, and not on your SO. That is a fundamental mistake of listening. Good listening takes your senses (visual, audial, maybe touch, etc.) to pick up what they are communicating; all your concentration (emotional on their feeling, intellectual on the words, etc.); composure (body language, etc.); emotion (they can see and sense it, of course); etc. Turn your attention away from yourself and focus it on them - like swiveling a big camera on a movie set, you are behind the camera, focused on the actors and silent now.

> I understand the "only when they ask for help" idea, but this specific person does not have the instinct to ask for help, which makes it difficult.

I don't know you or your SO at all, as I said, but here is a common trap: Maybe they don't ask because you already push it on them too often. They feel trapped, pressured; the last thing they want is more 'advice' - not that you have bad advice, but they need space, less pressure; they need to figure things out themselves without having your ideas fill the space, distracting their attention, and demanding responses. So they don't ask and then you see that and push more on them - a reinforcing cycle in the wrong direction.

Start a cycle in the right direction: If you back off, give them as much space as they want without resistance (or asking - 'can I tell you now?'), eventually they will flourish, come around, open up, and feel much happier and safer, and probably ask you. It may take lots of patience - and if you are struggling with the patience, you still have a problem with your personal drive and the focus of your attention (it took a long time for that to diminish in me).

> Or when they do ask for help, it is for such general large abstract problems that I am also at a loss of how to give actionable advice.

Look for the emotion behind their worry, and help them find their way through that. They are lost in the woods so help them find their way through; telling them what's on the other side doesn't really help.

I hope that helps!
I've taught beginners both languages and have not noticed a difference.

The hard parts for beginners are identical -- e.g. for loops, functions, and finding the motivation to consistently practice.
Everything you need to start fine-tuning LLMs in the privacy of your home

I don't know, to me it just seems like a plausible interpretation:

- In GitHub, forks of public repositories are themselves public repositories.

- GitHub repositories can be cloned, which is a form of distribution.

- Therefore any fork that implements, for example, a change to the programming language itself, but still uses the name "Rust", is distributing a modified version of the programming language in a manner that is not allowed.

I sincerely hope that this is not the interpretation taken by the Rust Foundation, but I cannot know for sure. It seems very open to selective enforcement.
The author might be struggling with people-pleasing and perfectionist tendencies.

People-pleasers often do things because other people would like them more if they did these things. As such, the reward for work like writing a blog article is positive external reinforcement/approval or minimising the risk of confrontation, disapproval, or even aggression. If their work pleases few people (not enough readers), they may feel like it wasn't worth doing, or if their work attracts criticism, they may feel guilt or shame for doing it. Fear of these consequences fuels procrastination.

Writing should be about the innate purpose of writing. It is to learn, to express yourself, to communicate. If one wishes to do these things, then there is almost never procrastination, as these actions always bring only positive rewards. There is no negative outcome to learning, to expressing yourself in written form, and communicating. Sure, the type of things you learn, express, or communicate could bring some negative consequences, but those actions on their own do not. They bring good results and feel good to do.

Perfectionism exaggerates the expectations one would put on themselves and their work. So people-pleasing may become people-impressing, people-delighting, and people-sweeping-off-their-feet. Anything less may bring the shame, guilt, and disappointment, and then "procrastination" becomes pretty much guaranteed. Because it's not really procrastination, it is a natural and very rational decision to not engage in activities that would bring only a bad outcome. Humans, generally, really don't want to hurt themselves. We learn not to touch the hot stove, just as we learn to not do things that don't meet our (sometimes delusional high) expectations.

Everything in procrastination is a lot more logical and explainable than it may seem. People-pleasing/conflict avoidance + perfectionism combo is common in tech workers. This has taken me decades to learn, now it helps the programmers I train, and I hope it helps you. Of course, everyone's life is a bit different, so don't have an unreasonable expectation that what I said applies to you 100%. It may only apply 20% and still be helpful.

that is exactly how it's presented, I give my methodology and how I arrived at the number (market rate in munich + 20%) and then give the number with exactly this caveat.
The generalisation I would make is: if you think, not just of a specific solution, but of the space of possible solutions, it makes it easier to find a point in that space which best "fits" (space, time, architecture) the program you're working on.

Rather than trying paths in the dark, first look at a map, then try a few paths.
