I think Tailscale uses user-mode TCP/IP (also gVisor netstack) for some client devices, like iOS? But could be wrong here.

If it helps, a version is simply not a decimal number and the dot is not a decimal point. It’s just a separator. The dot often used for purposes other than a decimal point (a few times in this comment!).

Do the CPAs actually have any fiduciary responsibilities, i.e. that the spending is prudent ? My understanding is that they will attest that the books are an accurate and true accounting and they make no broader claims. The elected auditor

$1.66mm seems like a lot for a traffic signal at an intersection. I’m sure an auditor could find a at least a few interesting items to dig in to and validate.

The previous mandate required the vaccine starting the semester after full approval. This mandates it regardless if it still under emergency use authorization. The latter strikes me as unreasonable.

FWIW, people drive down sidewalks in Canada too (famously in 2018). While on average the U.S. may have more violence than Canada, it’s certainly not correct say that it is “normal” in the U.S. and you would never dream of it in Canada. To f

I didn’t say the things that are reading into my words and quoting. No sane person would dispute that guns kill people in pure mechanical terms, I just don’t think reinforcing or debating that point is helpful in diagnosing the root causes

Is it? I always felt that whole argument was reductive. It seems obvious that for the most part people kill people, and that guns make that easier/worse. Why belabor that point?

I’m not making a commentary on guns, but there are lots of ways that people can be insanely stupid and reckless and end innocent bystanders lives. Talking about highways made me think of this one immediately: https://en.m.wikiped

Constitutional freedoms in Canada are different, and more limited (though this is subjective, a massive door is left open to any limits that may be “justified in a free and democratic society”… so no guarantees). For me, its been a bit shoc

Your source [1] commits several data errors in the first sentence. Having a divorce rate of 60% does not mean that 60% of married couples are unhappy (even though the divorce rate is not 60%, as your link [2] shows -- the peak divorce rat

I don't doubt anything about what you're saying, but I'm not sure what argument you're making. Yes, false negatives exist. Will another kind of interview have better rates of false negatives? At the big tech firm where I

You are committing a corollary to the green lumber fallacy described by the article. Just because code challenges are not relevant to job duties doesn’t mean the results are irrelevant to job performance . They are a proxy intelligence t

The point there is standardized . If you apply a standardized test, then it becomes feasible to measure and argue the disparate impact. For all their failings, leetcode-style interviews are probably less culturally-sensitive than standardi

Why is this sad? Standardized IQ tests are notoriously difficult to get right and may be legally questionable (Griggs v. Duke Power Co.). At some point you have to accept that there is no ideal way to interview, and that there are fundament

I think you’re missing context: I wrote most of this tool as part of another open source project (gVisor, which is the repository) and am not on or related to the core Go team. Google is a huge company with tens of thousands of engineers, a

Note that this also exists in the gVisor code base, the atomics support here is mostly for mixed-mode operation (read atomic, write locked) which is also common. It’s pretty new, so I still need to annotate a lot of the code.

There’s a totally valid complaint that the ssa analysis pass and compiler’s ssa representation are different and should be merged (I have the same one, and I’m pretty sure the Go team knows that), but what’s the problem with exposing this t

I’m one of the authors of this analyzer, and it’s surprising to see it here. To clear one misconception: some of the comments seem to be taking this as some kind of official Go tool, or using it a data point regarding the language itself. I

Re: tags, that’s true but builds will detect this and break (since the hash is encoded in the sum file). No one should move tags, ever (for many reasons), and Go is simply requiring this. Re: git, there is no assumption of git. Go also nati
