Sometimes I think mandatory hiring participation should be a thing. I generally learned as much about myself as I did from candidates from it. But what you said here about buzzword bingo is so painfully true. I’ve seen that go to ridiculous

Could you elaborate on what you mean by FAANG salary? I’ve always heard the prevailing wisdom is that if you’ve got one of those names on your resume you’re basically set.

This seems terrifying for Google Search and similar products. If I can cram the majority of my static, rarely changing information and proverbial (not literally, of course) consciousness into a better search format (a model) than Google et

I've always wondered: Is LLM/GPT already how Google is generating answers to "People also ask" questions or are they using a prior, or unknown, ML approach for this? I ask this because the quality of answers linked to th

Maybe you two should try it together for fun? Pro tip: You should probably agree to swipe right on everyone indiscriminately to avoid a potential argument. Not so pro disclaimer: I'm single and not married, so your mileage may vary. Pl

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't. The only thing I see listed on my Apple Watch is my Airpods. I have an Apple Watch series 6 (cellular model), iPhone 14 Pro Max, three HomePod Minis, an Apple TV 4K, and an M1 MacBook Pro. All of these devices a

Sonos and Spotify both do more to make this possible than Apple is doing. I don't have to leave Apple to take advantage of these, but I don't have to stay or continue to buy their devices either. Overall, my confidence in the bran

Sure, but that’s not what the page says. The Wikipedia article says that. The page says “it/she”. From what I’m familiar with, the order is usually “singular/plural” and when multiple are preferred I’m used to seeing it written as

Everything about the HomePods seem to be. I once asked what time it was and due to wifi problems it gave me some generic error message. It baffled me that this thing has to phone home for the time.

I’m going to be glued to this thread because I desperately want this. If you ask me, a lack of features like this is the #1 failure of the Apple ecosystem. I’d even go so far as to call it a kind of big, indirect lie. Why own a ton of Apple

I wonder what the motivation was. Anarchism is mentioned elsewhere, so if I wonder if that’s a motivating factor here. At any rate, I appreciate that people are trying their best to be respectful. Personally, I’d also prefer to use “she” if

I sympathize with questioning but this is pretty harsh. The explanation is fairly simple. “It” is how we refer to most inanimate objects and “subhuman” creatures in the English language. Debates on how appropriate it is to be addressed in t

Ironically, this is exactly what Google recommends you do in most cases. This isn’t empty, feel-good marketing either. It’s in their best interest for you to do so.

You’d think that Microsoft and Github would have a monopoly on this given their personal contributions to Git, ownership of Visual Studio Code, and ownership of the largest Git hosting PaaS. Don’t get me wrong, VS Code and Github are both o

Very cool article! Thanks for sharing. Is numpy just global in Python now? I see it everywhere, and I eventually sound it out. Yet I never fail to have a few moments where I go, “Wait, what is ‘np’? Oh, yeah… Numpy.” And I always feel like

My point is there is no grand surplus of us. Stuff like golden handcuffs and excess capital sloshing around are one thing, but even with a fix for that (a recession) I’m not sure it really addresses the demand at the root of all of this. I

I wasn’t particularly in touch with the concept of hash collisions, no. Now that I’ve learned something I can revel in the fact that it only cost me a silly amount or imaginary internet points to do so. Thanks!
