If you work in the US you should be getting a W2 from Google in a month or two. The top left corner will contain your SSN or it's an invalid W2 because the IRS won't be able to verify this is your W2 when you submit it with your t

Any vector addition done concurrently will result in indeterminate roundoff errors (to be precise there might be O(N!) different possible outputs depending on the order of calculation), this is literally the point of the field of numerical

I recently had to build some stringers for a deck. We had an original CAD with 11 steps (for a total of 12 including the top). When we produced the layout somehow we ended up laying out 10 steps instead of 11 because I wanted a specific tre

I have a particle physicist friend I asked this very question to last year. He laughed and told me that this is not something that keeps physicists up at night. After doing a fair bit of my own research and watching a lot of PBS Spacetime i

My education was the inverse of this in many ways. I was home schooled through 6th grade, privately schooled through high school and went to a major public research university for undergrad. The biggest difference between my story and the O

Two things I learned on HN before they became mainstream: * Rust * Covid For the latter I remember thinking that it was going to become a big deal soon but no one seemed to be paying attention except for those paranoid HNers.
