Perhaps I'm ignorant. I know some of the criticism of Meta: many people don't like the way their products are optimized for engagement. I've heard about their weird AI bots interacting on their platform as if they were peopl

I think the most likely case is: this company is labeling images from meta AI use from people who opted-in to share their data with Meta. It's certainly possible that it's something much more surprising / sinister, but there

I'll confess that I like my Meta Ray Ban glasses: I love using them to listen to podcasts at the pool/beach, while riding my bike, and it's cool to snap a quick picture of my kids without pulling out my phone. I wish this ar

I haven't closely followed distributed protocols like this in years so might just be just behind the times, but I can't recall ever seeing "Pro Censorship" as a badge on a technology. Seems to fit with real-world trends

I love playing with my mirrorless camera and lenses, but I'm becoming more and more convinced that it's a risky proposition "investing" in a bunch of expensive camera gear (which traditionally holds it's value bette

"Furthermore", "novel", "distinct" are scientific jargon that reduce readability? Seems like a non-problem to me.

You might look at youtube red, which is included with the google music streaming service. Will let you download videos to your mobile device for offline viewing. Combined with your youtube "to watch" list, it works pretty well.

Can people suggest companies that better balance the factors that I've seen mentioned in this thread: - Provide good pay/benefits - Provide a positive culture for employees - Employees are encouraged to have a life outside work -

You're misreading. Everyone they hire is intended to be a leader, and being right is one of the qualities they care about in employees. Not "management is usually right, so trust them".

Kitsune provides useful abstractions for modifying your program for runtime updating and tools for automating state transformation between versions of your program. It would be entirely reasonable to implement DSU all within an app's o

This was work done as part of my phd thesis. You can take the code and samples that are here https://github.com/kitsune-dsu and play with them. However, I wouldn't consider what has been released ready for production

The paper describes the main changes that you have to make to make your program updatable and is the best resource. You can find all the modified programs (redis, etc) here: https://github.com/kitsune-dsu

But as she points out, FizzBuzz doesn't do a good job in telling you if you've found one of these developers because the context of interviewing is different than the context of banging out code on the job.

It may be that connections though xfinitywifi don't count against the neighbors allocated bandwidth and won't degrade their service since their router and connection support more than their allocated bandwidth. Can anyone confirm

Their solution stops the reloads for each browser and has the benefit of alerting the user that something's wrong, without hammering "somewhere".

I like reading a bit of prose about when a tool doesn't fit someone's use case. Nim has a pretty interesting approach to data sharing in concurrency, and it's more interesting to read a story of someone who got bit by it tha

The vast, vast, vast majority of people who are born with every advantage don't accomplish anything worthy of a profile like this. And I don't dispute that, if she'd been born in a starving village in a third-world country

I'm surprised you were downvoted. I think this suggestion makes a ton of sense. It's certainly the shortest path to having a significantly improved first-party language for Android and Google does have a working relationship wit

I'm not seeing the javascript-alike-ness. What caused that connection to jump out at you? I see the standard static FP features (from ML, Haskell, Scala, F#) with the syntactic flavor or Rust and some C# tossed in.

I don't think his point is as broad as you're claiming. He's saying that golang application code is complex due to (for example) lack of generics because the language lacks that complexity.
