Point of clarification from TFA: my reading is that this applies to _any_ employer when the _employee_ is California-based, not any employee when the employer is California-based.

Agreed in principle. One of the prior objections to automated enforcement is that it enables the police not to do their jobs. This part of their jobs is now already not being done. The system sucks, and automating enforcement doesn't f

Denverite here. I historically have been a consistent opponent of "automated enforcement" in general; it's typically run though partnerships with private companies, so the drive for profit sets up perverse incentives, like sh

American of mostly Irish extraction & raised spending a lot of time in the Boston metro area; I get a bit more than a tenth of these. (It’ll inspire reading next time I’m hungry for roots.)

If you're interested in finding more of an in-person community (and you may not be! Primarily online might be your preference, and there's nothing wrong with that), I'd recommend finding a bigger, denser city. It almost doesn

You can flip the ordering: live somewhere sufficiently dense and walkable, then make friends there. I’m not sure if this works for especially transient cities (SF, DC), but it’s my story in Denver, and I gather works well in a lot of mid-ti

Part of this is that ElixirConf 2023 just finished up, so we’re getting the news output of the talks given and libraries released.

If this were able to determine which wildcard subdomains were active for a given domain, you could use it to figure out a lot of B2B companies’ client/customer list.

If we had to do it again, we'd do it differently—not least because the way we did it the first time was by fogging entire neighborhoods with truckloads of DDT.

I disagree with sibling comment; that’s definitely too low for a high-demand skilled position where you’re handing the administrative overhead and contract risk. With the enormous caveat that I’m not in the AI/ML space, I’d expect a ra

This is a significantly better read than TFA. I encourage you to submit it.

Wells Fargo does something unethical, damaging, and arguably unforgivable every couple of years. It boggles my mind that anyone would knowingly and willingly do business with them.

Regardless of whether this is true, I suspect you're conflating correlation and causation.

I consider taste a benefit, regardless of what your taste may be. There’s other things to weight, too, of course! But if the end result is that you enjoyed your time more than you would have if you were slinging Java, that’s not without mer

That’s a pretty big “just”, tbh. It would absolutely require the sort of proprietary kernel drivers most distros (understandably!) consider anathema, and I’m not sure game publishers want to shoulder that burden entirely themselves.

If you’re going to be investing much time and energy into AI/ML on your GPU, I urge you to consider going the nvidia route rather than an AMD GPU. (CPU-wise, either AMD or Intel is just fine.) Using ROCm instead of CUDA may be possible
