> The LSP is limited in scope and doesn't provide access to things like the AST (which can vary by language).

Clangd does, which means we could try this out for C++.

There's also tree-sitter, but I assume that's table stakes nowadays. For example, Aider uses it to generate project context ("repo maps")[0].

> If you want to know whether a given import is valid, to verify LLM output, that's not possible.

That's not the biggest problem to be solved, arguably. A wrong import in otherwise correct-ish code is mechanically correctable, even if by user pressing a shortcut in their IDE/LSP-powered editor. We're deep into early R&D here, perfect is the enemy of the good at this stage.

> Similarly, you can't use the LSP to determine all valid in-scope objects for an assignment. You can get a hierarchy of symbol information from some servers, allowing selection of particular lexical scopes within the file, but you'll need to perform type analysis yourself to determine which of the available variables could make for a reasonable completion.

What about asking an LLM? It's not 100% reliable, of course (again: perfect vs. good), but LLMs can guess things that aren't locally obvious even in AST. Like, e.g. "two functions in the current file assign to this_thread::ctx().foo; perhaps this_thread is in global scope, or otherwise accessible to the function I'm working on right now".

I do imagine Cursor, et. al. are experimenting with ad-hoc approaches like that. I know I would, LLMs are cheap enough and fast enough that asking them to build their own context makes sense, if it saves on the amount of time they get the task wrong and require back&forth and reverts and tweaking the prompt.

From my experience this is one of the ways it might work.

Recruiting (company's internal function, which is part of HR) is tasked with soliciting profiles to see what's available on the market. There's no real position but the recruiter(s) invent one according to what the business told them they would eventually need. There's no hiring manager behind it (as there's no position to be be filled). Recruiter either periodically meets with the business group that requested the research or prepares a report on the results (number of resumes that came in, salary requirements, etc) and presents to the business group that requested it.

So there's a reason these resumes are being solicited, it's just the reason is not to hire somebody. Sometimes it is done to justify business decision (ie to move to a different technology, or to expand to a new geographical area). Sometimes the business group _might_ be willing to open a new req if "the right candidate" comes up, but it's not guaranteed.

It also allows HR and recruiting to justify their presence (they are busy despite the fact that the company might not be hiring at all currently).

So there's reasons why these positions are posted and virtually none to prevent the company from doing that.
That's not the fault of the party you're blaming it on. The utilities fail to do so and have (and continue to) face lawsuits and repercussions. If the state were to intervene with their operation further I imagine you'd take issue with that meddling.

It's certainly not caused by Delta smelt or a failure to rake leaves in the forest either.
I've posted this story before, but it's relevant.

About two years ago, I was looking for a job, and a recruiter reached out about a software engineering position at a prominent newspaper [1].

I told the recruiter to apply me, they did, and they made me sit through a two hour video course on ethics and sexual harassment, which was weird considering that I hadn't even done an interview yet.

About a week later, the recruiter gets back to me, and they declined me because my resume "reads too much like a manager, no hands-on coding experience".

I was extremely confused, because most of the time people say the opposite, that my resume is too in the weeds, and I need to focus on high-level stuff. Moreover, I don't have any managerial experience on my resume...every role says something like "software engineer".

And then it hit me: the hiring manager never read my resume. He already knew who he wanted to hire for the role, and for either legal or compliance or bureaucratic reasons, he had to make it look like he was looking for other candidates, and in the process, he wasted my time and the recruiter's.

The problem is, as I noted, spending $100 to post a completely bogus job 100 times is basically nothing to even a medium-sized company.

The asymmetry in power & wealth means that if you want the $1 spent by a job-seeker to even come close to the guarantees you describe, you'll probably need to make the company pay $100 per posting or more. And that would effectively require some pretty widespread and strictly-enforced regulation/legislation.

If you're going to have to get that just for this middleman solution, why not go all the way and have the regulation mandate that any job that a company posts has to be real, with full intent to hire, and every single applicant must get a timely, non-canned response?
How is that possible? Would Chrome Chromium maintainer make a different implementation decision from the original Chrome, and then support and develop a real branch in the code? To have Google less influence? I highly doubt it. It is all chromewashing, to make it sound as if Chrome Chromium is an independent browser.
I've tried using datalist with text inputs and it never quite worked out from a UX perspective. Users would always complain about weird quirks with how it populates & clears values. A normal <select> element with an "Other" option + conditional input element is much more predictable.
There's no way to know from a single frame. We would need to know the sequence of events.

It's not against California vehicle code to be in an intersection when the light is red. It's not even necessarily against vehicle code to be in an intersection when the light is red for you and green for perpindicular traffic (although it's an imminent hazard, so you better have a good reason).

To show a red light violation, you need a datestamped image showing the vehicle behind the stop line with a red light showing, and a near in time image of it in the intersection on red, and probably another one to show that it didn't make an allowed right on red. Really, you also need evidence that the red light was steady, and not a flashing red light which would indicate four way stop and the driver could proceed after stopping. Typically, you wouldn't see red showing on both directions at the same time in a flashing red situation, but cameras are fickle.
How so?

Both as a pedestrian and driver I prefer roundabouts as they force drivers to slow down to non-lethal speeds and there's typically a one car length of road between the turn and pedestrian crossing, so the cars are already going straight when they cross it.

The only road users who don't mix well with roundabouts are cyclists on cycling lanes, as they get in and out of view too fast.
I made the mistake of clicking on a Jordan Peterson video several years back. I'd never heard of him before and the title seemed interesting, so I clicked. 15 seconds in my charlatan detector went off, so I exited the video. For the next couple weeks I was playing wack-a-mole with a never-ending supply of manoshpere and right wing nonsense. Easy to see how so many people get sucked into sphere of influence.
Makes me want to use an LLM to apply for a gajillion jobs. See how they like their own medicine.
Exactly, intensification or acceleration, this is exactly the root of most issues. Since we've mastered energy (and in particular oil&gas), the world has been on an acceleration binge, which is now causing a lot of friction and overheating in the relationships and environment.

We need to slow down and to connect back to nature
> Having a stage where walk is enabled when there's no pedestrians around wouldn't much help pedestrians, and would introduce inefficiency in throughput

It forces drivers to reduce speed and come to a full stop; dramatically decreasing the likelihood of collisions with pedestrians they did not notice.
Yep. Hence the appeal of turning the intersection into a roundabout and pulling the stoplights 3-5 cars from the roundabout and only stopping traffic when pedestrians are present (i.e. puffin and pelican crossing style). It gives cars enough time to turn and then halt with a bright red stop light to catch their attention.
The USA is ranked below most other western public school systems so I don’t think you can conclude “the US are doing bad because all western countries are”. It’s just a matter of priorities and the US prioritizes defense over education.
I had heard about this some years ago, and I taught my youngest daughter (11yo now) to ride a bike this way.

Granted, it didn't happen in 1 day because she didn't have a bike when she started "riding" (We got her first a balance bike, which she out grew rather fast due to her size). But when we finally did get her a bike, it took an afternoon - really just a couple of hours - for her to start riding it.

My partner is still baffled by this, years after the fact (Science, girl!)

To put it funnily, the second she started riding the bike it felt very Forrest Gump.
It boggles the mind how much people believe gyroscopic forces are what keep bicycles and motorcycles upright. It's even taught in text books.

It only really enters the picture during wheelies, if you've got the front wheel spinning fast enough.
The author is pissed off about the design of the intersection. If you have to litigate bullshit like this, surely you see, well, the intersection is poorly designed.

You are also litigating whether or not it's legal. A lot of traditions of California driving are legal and really dangerous. My dude, CVC doesn't even apply in a private parking lot for example, so you can accidentally kill somebody in one and legally face no moving violations. "Legal" is not an interesting criteria at all, it's misleading.
HA! I was about to tell my story and checked the article. My story is ONE block away from this intersection.

I used to work a few blocks from this intersection and would walk daily to the train. Crossing the street was daunting, especially when we time changed and it was dark. I started carrying reflective labels on my backback and I wore a strobe light when crossing.

I _still_ had people flipping me off, swerving around me, honking, etc for my audacity to use a crosswalk. Going to remote work probably saved my life.
We have the technology to cheaply enforce most driving laws. IMO we should do it.
> This wasn't some LinkedIn "quick apply", these were direct "Fill out the form" on our website. Not a single one of these applications got read.

Surely this would basically immediately backfire as people would presume a rejection and not apply when you actually wanted to hire. Why would you do this?
Yes it starts slow, but keep at it. It starts to get interesting about halfway into the book, if I remember correctly.
Yep!

The threads are different in their direction per side so that the rotation during forward pedaling further tightens the pedal.

Another related interesting fact is that on a unicycle, especially one used by someone who can ride backwards, needs to be checked often to ensure the pedals don't back themselves out due to pedal rotation in the opposite (loosening) direction.
Not really. There are only so many hours in the day. The time between school and bedtime is extremely limited and involves other time consuming activities such as after school sports and eating dinner.

I work on homework with my kid every day and after all those things it's not like we have time (or she has energy) to fill in holes in her at-school learning
Your conclusion is the exact same one the above essay comes to in the next paragraphs. It concludes that the "alignment" between MrBeast and his work is a result of the larger thesis: creators are ultimately created by the audience conditions of the platform. Or, authenticity doesn't mean much when the root of the creator isn't a ground truth, but a synthesis of demand.
It is illegal in the US but the law isn't enforced when men are on the losing end. As someone else points out, the POTUS himself violated this law openly and in public. Because everyone knows that and because feminists agitate constantly for female-biased hiring, it's been effectively decriminalized.
They started issuing them with chips a couple years ago. Most should have been replaced by now.

I did the same math comparing portland with suburb schools (around portland and seattle) and came to the same conclusion. But one other thought is when the money goes to the mortgage, you get to keep the wealth after (assuming you sell to downsize at some point).

Sounds like something many technical professions have to deal with. Even with all the licenses and certs in the world, very few lawyers or doctors are just walking in and learning the process in a week. Other types of engineering need to understand the pipeline in another firm compared to their old one. A firefighter needs time to mesh with the team and figure out what equipment and tools are available here.

But then again, I bet most of those also aren't trying to rely on AI to find talent.

> Both government and private can be efficient or inefficient

That's true. The difference is that inefficient private organizations go out of business, while inefficient government organizations tell congress it's because they "don't have enough funding" and get their budget increased.
Voucher programs are just going to flood the "education market" with substandard schools teaching things like humans walked with dinosaurs a few thousand years ago before the great flood. They're going to extract profits from our tax dollars to give us a worse quality service.

We'll see a lot of new schools open up, spend a few years collecting profits, then get shut down for substandard quality after effectively failing to teach kids for those few years. Meanwhile the public schools which can't be choosy will end up with fewer resources and have worse outcomes for the kids who have parents who can't afford private transportation to the few nicer, choosier voucher schools.
This is very much wrong.

When a driver sees a yellow light, they must make a call: do I have time to safely slow down and stop before reaching the stop location, or not? If I do, then I must start slowing down right away - that much we agree o. But if I don't, then I mustn't slow down, as that is more likely to leave me in the middle of the intersection while the lights turn green for through-traffic.
I’m still using chromecast audio they work great!
So a pre-yellow light? This seems like you just changed what we call a yellow light to the 4 flashing greens, and made the yellow the new red. If yellow means “don’t enter the intersection”, how is that different than a red?
Is this interview worthwhile seeing to understand his state if mind? Or does it take a German to understand how clueless he is on this topic?
I'm not against circles in general, but (along with pedestrians) they aren't exactly bike friendly either.
There are a number of niche videos on the topic of learn-to-bike that emphasizes the pedal-less balance method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zMOvVXGmH0 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7GKK3liv8M , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELW3CgR-DW4 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqmzwVrkTU4 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOg1hHmGIQQ , etc.
Yep, something something Chesterton's fence. If you couldn't drive through a yellow then you effectively have two lights go/stop which makes drivers choose between the safe but illegal thing of running the light or the dangerous but legal thing of slamming on their brakes.

You can't have an instant switch between go/stop which yellow— effectively meaning unsafe stopping distance go, safe stopping distance stop— solves very neatly.
What we really need is a de-facto open source tool to manage logical replication seamlessly. The devs have built all the pieces, and as of v17 there are very few limitations. But I am constantly tripping over the fact that I cannot observe how the replication is progressing, and a good way to mitigate failures.
That's a counter-example. The prediction markets were used to inform gut feelings, not controlling the company, and in the end, when he wanted to stop, he stopped following the markets and shut the company.
> ask why so much engineering time and money is being wasted on [Linux]

Most likely the corporations will say "because that is much cheaper than developing our own; 10 of our devs on Linux an 99% of devs from other corporations are much cheaper than 1000 of our devs on our own OS". And the shareholders will likely accept that.

The key thing is that for most corporations that contribute to Linux, Linux is not the product (except Red Hat, SuSe etc). Google, Facebook, etc, just need a good OS to run their billions of servers on.

> so we can fork when their interests stop aligning with ours

You can fork but you likely cannot maintain Linux as-is. Where do the 1M hours/year come from? That's hard to do in free time.

That is also fine from the perspecitve of Free Software. The 4 freedoms do not include "the program must be maintainable with little enough manpower for people to do it in their free time, free of independence on corporate interests":

https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html#four-freedoms

The GPL is great in that it gives large power to users of the software, no matter if those users are corporate or personal, and even if the makers of the software are mostly corporations.
I agree the kids will take it at face value all the more reason to not tolerate massive deception. What if his teaching them fraudulent representation pays. All pro athletes cheat a little bit at the highest levels but exceptional cheating is never tolerated.
>Indigenous Americans generally prefer being called Indian, not Native American

Enforcing this false dilemma is what leads us to this situation. Even this CCP Grey guy is arguing for the false dilemma. Actually referring to Native Americans or Indians as a monolithic group is the problem. The many peoples forced to live in the Indian Territories(Oklahoma) have different needs than the peoples forced to live along the US-Canadian border(like Ojibway, Blackfoot, and Mohawk) and different needs than the Apache... another overloaded name[1].

If the designers were truly considering the well-being of the occupants of the vehicles then they would be designing cities to minimize the time spent in vehicles; which means more than saving a few seconds at a stop light, it means getting them out of their cars entirely.

Well those are 3000 resumes that won't be resubmitted when you actually want to hire. Many of those resumes will belong to people who since found work. Weeding through that would be a nightmare, so you'd have to toss it and write it off as a loss.

Or you could just post jobs when you're actually interested in hiring and turn it off when you have enough applications to process. Super interested candidates can always cold email.

Cul-de-sac style suburbs, stroads and other related development patterns are a net drain on the local economy. It’s not a sustainable pattern long term when infrastructure needs to be replaced or upgraded.
