General-purpose "mental ability tests" are typically illegal for hiring in the US.
Those data are moment in time. See one of the child posts for what you're talking about -- and in terms of trade corrected emissions the US and Europe turned the corner even earlier.
I like ECharts a lot and generally, it was incredibly easy to use and customize. I tried a lot of alternatives that weren’t nearly as full featured. It’s really got most anything you’d want included in outta the box.

With that said, I had trouble getting it to stream updates, and was having big performance issues with the dataset I was throwing at it (full telemetry from a racing sim roughly every 12ms). I did not make any attempt to refine the data before delivering it so YMMV. I eventually switched to Plotly and D3 to get better performance, but definitely missed the ease of use.
Zelle is not instantaneous I believe. It would be hard to buy things e.g. at a store.
Yes, often unreliable. And, they will give different answers at different times.

I'm afraid the author is writing for an audience that's familiar with generating functions. It's using a common trick in analytic combinatorics, the notation is actually "shorthand".

Very informally, let T(z) be the generating function where the coefficient of the z^n term is the number of trees we are searching with exactly n nodes.

We know from the functional description that such a tree can be:

- a leaf;
- a node with 1 child;
- a node with 2 children;
- a node with 3 children.

A leaf is a tree with one node and that's it, so it "contributes" as a single tree of size 1.

How many trees of size n are there that fall in the second case? Exactly as many as the total trees of size (n-1), hence this case "contributes" as zT(z).

How many trees of size n fall in the third case? That's a bit harder to see, because now you have (n-1) nodes in total, split between the two branches. So you can have 1 in the left branch and n-2 in the right branch, 2 left n-3 right and so on. With a bit of basic combinatorics you can notice that this is exactly the convolution product of the series with itself, in analytical terms T^2(z). Hence the third case "contributes" for zT^2(z).

The fourth case is similar.

At this point we have constructed the inverse of the generating function we are looking for, i.e. z as a function of T(z) rather than the reverse, but luckily there's a standard trick for this: Lagrange inversion.

1. Immutable Content Naming: In a data-centric system, content is addressed by its name, transcending geographical considerations. This circumvents the vulnerabilities associated with IP addresses, which can be spoofed or manipulated. By employing cryptographic techniques to validate the authenticity of content names, NDN establishes a robust layer of security that underpins the entire architecture.

2. Built-In Data Integrity: NDN employs built-in mechanisms to ensure the integrity of data. Content is signed by publishers and verified by consumers, preventing tampering or unauthorized alterations. This approach effectively mitigates data breaches, as any unauthorized modification is detected and rejected.
You could try carrying cash again, especially just a few coins for the homeless.

I make a point of carrying cash. Especially for buskers. It's just so simple to push the "cash back" button at the PoS when I'm buying something else.

(I miss the days when you could buy a CD from a talented busker.)
I refuse to use it out of principle that they have intertwined it with observable. All the modern docs for d3 assume you are using observable. So unless you are relying entirely on AI it’s now even harder to grok the documentation.

Not sure why this is so contentious. You can search online how many others this impacted as well. All of the modern examples for d3 were rebaked into the observable notebook pattern and it seriously obfuscated how to use d3 itself.

"According to Dykstra, who served as a general contractor on the project with her mother Debbie, the three-bedroom, two-bedroom house in Willoughby Hills, Ohio was built using plans of Wright's Usonian called Project #5909, or Riverrock."

Assuming 2-bathroom house? Why oh why has editorial review just become such a joke? This seems like such an obvious thing to catch.
ChatGPT et al are quite neat, but the interfaces are not great at all. For example, I'm going on a trip to Paris in a couple of months. I can ask a LLM what to do but it will just give me a list. There are no visuals, click throughs, maps, tips, experiences. blending 'AI' with search and a 'reader' can create a much better experience.

I've used Midjourney and chatGPT. Midjourney is better for rapid iteration, cycling through options faster, and to a large extent getting "weirder". It's easier to tweak using parameters.

ChatGPT is far, far superior (especially now) when you want something more specific that you've already imagined. But it's slower, and unlike Midjourney you don't get four versions to choose to build and iterate on, you get a single image that takes longer to load.
Woah. The first comment gave me a wave of nostalgia I couldn't place. This must have been it. Couldn't have been older than 4 or 5 last time I was in G Fox.
I see quite a few comments about how this is nothing new and it's easy to catch scammers, etc, etc.

Scamming may not be new, but a person using AI in this way is able to penetrate quite deeply into (long, tedious, time-consuming) interview process if folks aren't keeping an eye out for it (and this article, like many personal experiences, indicate that people aren't yet). Having an AI voice in your ear, rapidly providing you answers in real time is something new; at least in terms of how easily accessible it is.

It's amazing to me that folks have the audacity to come to interviews like this. I think some candidates genuinely feel that it is a reasonable thing to do along the lines of stuffing their resumes with keywords to get through the various recruiter filters. It's like hey, everyone in baseball is doping, so I have to do it to keep up!

The behaviors are obvious once you've seen them before, but as an engineer and not a "talent acquisition" person, I feel deeply uncomfortable implying that some candidate I'm interviewing is lying or cheating, so it took me a bit to speak up about it.

These types of articles need to continue to come out and the conversation elevated, if just to save some poor devs hours of interviews with candidates who were able to bluff their way through the less technical initial conversations.

Do you have that friend who knows the answer to anything and who you thought was a genius until smartphones appeared and you started googling his answers? LLMs are that guy.

For programming stuff that can be immediately verified LLMs are good. They also cover many cases where search engines can't go (e.g. "what was that song where X did Y?"). But looking up facts? Not yet. Burned many times and not trying it again until I hear something changed fundamentally.

glad you mentioned xbar, and your comment is ranked high (so maybe someone can help me out). I've been a long-time user of xbar, but recently it stopped showing up in the menubar on macOS 15.2. Even a simple script with just print doesn't display anything. Anyone else running into this?

btw. I'm starting to think xbar might be abandoned - it hasn’t seen updates in a while.
I see something black being carried. But it could be anything.
This sort of thing tends to trend bad for users.
Some business can certainly allocate more than $100M, but I could see that thesis for VC-backed tech-style product companies.

A few examples come to mind immediately: trading firms/hedge funds often have more capacity than that in their existing strategies; hardware businesses can have substantial up-front costs; companies with high COGS might need that much to just scale at the rate they're already moving, since each unit locks up a bunch of capital until it's sold.
It's a mix of both for me.

I use gemini more on my phone, where I feel like going through search results and reading is more effort, but I'll fall back to searching on duck duck go fairly often.

On a desktop I generally start at duck duck go, and if it's not there, then I don't bother with AI. (I use copilot in my editor, and it's usually helpful, but not really "search").
There's Plot, which is as standalone as anything[0]. That said, I still find D3 unparalleled in depth and scope.

You mean online right? Credit/debit card payment gateways are a little cumbersome for foreigners not only because they are a small amount of customers, but also because it opens a window for card fraud, which in Brazil, the online stores have to paid for it (as it is a non-physical credit card use).

Apparently Wise had a PIX functionality here in Brazil, but it seems that they removed it for some reason.
Me, too.

But, sadly, OP is right.

When doing a technical screen I'll sometimes pick a skill the person claims to have, and ask them the simplest possible non-trivial question I can ask.

For example, let's say you list 'SQL' as one of the skills on your CV. I might show you a SQL statement like:

SELECT id, start_date FROM employees;

(EDIT: I meant SELECT id, start_date FROM employees ORDER BY id;)

I'll tell you id is an auto-increment field, and ask whether the result would show the newest employee at the top or the bottom.

You have a 50/50 chance of getting it right. If you get it wrong, I'll tell you the answer. Getting it wrong wouldn't disqualify you.

Then I'll ask you how to get it in the opposite order.

I am expecting you to immediately say 'add DESC'. If you can't answer that question in under 2 seconds, you probably haven't written enough SQL to justify listing it as a skill on your CV.

You would be surprised at how many people fail simple tests just like this one.

(I won't use this particular one again.)

* Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

Be charitable. I provided encyclopedic reference out of a mutual discovery interest. Magazine articles[/opeds] may—in your words—present “opinions of some,” whereas reference-grade material provides a broad and citable foundation—ostensibly what you are looking for (“your axiomatic foundation is just another opinion of some”).

In the spirit of “respond to the strongest plausible interpretation” and good faith, I think you may have missed the argument I was making above. :>

I am positing a reformulation/distillation of “positive trade balance preference” as “preference for foreign investment,” drawing on Palgrave, although perhaps controversially. The former is controversial, especially if seen as a-priori; the latter mundane.

Yes, but it requires intelligence for cooperation to be evolutionarily viable. Dumb but cooperative animals are too easy for a freeloader to take advantage of.

And it obviously requires massive intelligence for written language and high fidelity communication.
Nice work - congratulations! ...and, yes - I had to paste the text of today's game into vi so I could use the bracket matching to untangle the clues... :)

Also, I would make it more obvious which clues are eligible for solving at the moment rather than penalizing us for not being able to discern which ones are.

I'm not so sure. Mammals have a huge energy budget mostly because we're endotherms. Humans are also pretty large as far as mammals go, and use more energy.

The caloric enrichment of food by cooking probably can explain this as well. We got smart enough to cook, which gave us more energy from less food to power the brain. At that point, the evolutionary advantage of metabolic efficiency matters less. It allowed early humans to continue developing on the same path, probably increasing brain complexity somewhat over time while not focusing as much on energy.

But I'm no biologist. I'm just guessing.

I entered the workforce in 08/09. At that time things seemed really dire. It felt to me like the whole house of cards was coming down, and I told myself that I would take any job that I could get.

I ultimately landed a job with an odd startup, eccentric founders, working out of an attic. In hindsight I couldn't have asked for a better start to my career. But, my expectations were rock bottom at the time.

Anyway, keep your mind open to all possibilities. You never know where an unlikely choice may take you. And, good luck!
Most engines now include LLM outputs on top pf search results now. Solely using an LLM is just not practical
Japanese culture has quite a lot of sexism but so do many "western" countries some are better in some ways some are worse in some ways. And divide between "the West" and Japan isn't so huge Japan is fairly westernized in many ways. It's a rich liberal democracy with a lot of similarities to other rich liberal democracies we may label western.

> A lot of visible local businesses in rural Japan tend to be run by men

And you don't think that has anything to do with sexism in society?
I'll toss some props to `go-echarts` [1], which allows you to declare charts with Golang types and it all gets bound to JSON automagically by Golang's JSON marshaller. I've used it for many projects and whenever there's an issue/PR, the maintainer responds quickly.

It's fun to Go-embed JavaScript functions and SQL queries, for this weird blend of data, SQL, Go and Javascript. Here's a Golang example that pulls data from a DuckDB and creates a baked-in candlestick chart file with JavaScript tooltips. [2]

You need to stop accusing me of made up things derived from your paranoid delusions lol. Democrats wanted the protesters in jail and they put them in jail be they didn’t like what the protesters said. It really was that simple, so stop making things up from your fantasies so you can imagine this is something new and special or try to “win” some internet argument by accusing people of things that exist only in your imagination.

The reason is simple. All tech companies have very high valuations. They have to sell investors a dream to justify that valuation. They have to convince people that they have the next big thing around the corner.
I love the new features! I also appreciate the details of what software you used to create the game. My kids have been building stuff in Scratch and I want to have something available for when they’re ready for the next step, so it’s nice to have all these ideas for what they can use.

Not the case in my jurisdiction, exaggerating in your resume is not illegal. And I really don't care, call it whatever you want if that makes you feel better. Companies are dishonest all the time to their customers and to their workers and especially to their candidates. Been screwed 3 times by dishonest employers, I'm only reciprocating their attitude.

I'm just playing the game so that I come up on top the same way they are doing it to us. That's capitalism for you, our current system doesn't reward honesty, it rewards those who are unscrupulous, as they end up at the top. Companies aren't religious holier than though, they're unscrupulous chasing profits, and then if that's the case, I can play the same game.
Lol never give into Internet pressure.

Especially when you don't know if the feedback given to you is legit or not (copy pasta, ai summarized, or in this case, tech "word salad" to recommend it should be open source)

Release if and whenever you want. Revoke access, "delete" the repo, do a complete rewrite that never ends up in prod, YOU decide.

Have a great day and best of luck (someone not interested at this exact moment to review your GitHub project but enough to reply to this thread - maybe I stumble across your next Show HN though and I hear your elevator pitch).
This is pretty much the reason why I think Google should divest of its search engine to private equity, and go all in on AI query while it is still high in valuation.

It will also help get rid of the antitrust issues that the chrome browser has created
Only if I know exactly what I'm looking for but don't want to type the URL or don't remember it. I never actually search for information with a search engine anymore.

The only advantage Google and other traditional search engines have over AIs is that they're very fast. If I know for certain I can get what I want in under 1s I might as well use Google. For everything else, Perplexity or ChatGPT is going to be faster.
Nice point!

Mah bro, such is life. In fact the entirety of humanity is like that. Unfairness is everywhere.

There is nothing wrong being under accomplished. Let me tell you a secret that helps with mental sanity. All humans are sinful creatures. We indulge in lot of these sins. If you go through this chain of thought you arrive at conclusion, everyone is inferior to one another. The material superiority you yearn for is a momentary fleet in the river of time.

Sometimes just reflect on yourself. One perspective of life is your world governs you. If you are happy in your own world, try to let go of it. Just enjoy the moments and don't hold on it.

You are the actor and creator of your reality. Your objective reality is making you feel inferior. Define your role, change your actions, and act accordingly.

The inability to act according to your role is the probably reason behind your feeling. You probably see yourself through some different lens where your actions and objective reward do not align. All you can do is control your thoughts and actions. So act.
Stating it in patronizing fact-checker tone does not make it true. The tech nerds started it (they love cheap labor pools). Then the politicians joined their masters’ bandwagon. It was a PR blitz. Who has the money for those? Dorseys, Grahams, & Zuckerbergs, or petty-millionaire mayors & congressmen? Politicians are just the house slaves—servants of money.

My first thought when I read this was, "This is very Japanese, and nothing like it would ever happen in America." Americans and Japanese are poles apart in the ways they relate to their communities, older generations, etc.
