That makes even less sense. How does the candidate "ding" you? That's just a rude, incompetent interviewee. "How dare you ask me about this thing I claimed to know!"

Wait, this needs context. You, a current employee of a company, are interviewing a person who listed a skill on their resume, and then you got reprimanded for asking that candidate to demonstrate that skill?

It feels so weird that I can understand this discussion now. I used to think that all these Haskell discussions were garbage. But now I get it. It's still very inaccessible, in my opinion. But I'm working on something to help chan

I feel like I don't have the background to fully understand what you're saying. Could you explain this in a more lay way? > X and Y are noisy correlating variables

I think most people don't take the time to discriminate between their models and protobuf's. They see automagically created data models and think WELP LET'S USE THIS EVERYWHERE.

Hey, does holding this item effect a positive, visceral reaction?

Odd that the article includes some weird non-Kondo advice about "don't touch it", probably contrary even, given that her approach is very intimate/fluffy. I guess the overall idea is to think more objectively about somet

The problem is when non-technical people write articles or respond to posts about Deepmind. They think all AIs are the same and that one specific AI achievement means the Matrix is coming. People lack nuance and critical thinking.

It's best not distilled that way. But some forms of improv can resemble things like role playing games. But not all.

I'm an active participant in improv and I'd like to disagree right here. If you have someone who is really being off the rails and is JUST expressing themselves and not really listening/collaborating... It's essentially

I feel like most of the strife caused at work is different value judgements on things. So I've been trying to tease out truths vs value judgements. 1 + 1 will always equal 2, no one debates that. AWS offers both Postgres and MySQL, no

If Leela and AlphaZero have anything to say, it's that there is such a thing as being overly materialistic.

> The difficulty of learning a new programming language is overblown. This is a value judgement, ripe for disagreement. Why do you think learning a new programming language is not difficult, as others perceive?

Why is it concerning to you? It's typical for human nature. Out of sight out of mind. If it doesn't directly affect the executive or their bottom dollar, then it doesn't matter. As long as they aren't getting spied on, e

Can you clarify what "this happens" refers to? What happens to you regularly?

by ionforce 8y ago
I think everyone knows that "works" on paper. But people are looking for solutions that fit their lifestyle, including human imperfections like the lack of willpower.

I think a lot of people are still attracted to the "hostile genius" persona, or whatever. Maybe it justifies their own poor behavior.

The disagreement is over what "just works" means. Obviously the author things Protobuf isn't suitable for some use cases. They don't work in his view.

by ionforce 8y ago
One of the most surprising features of Proto mentioned in this thread (at least for me/my background) is the desire to forward on a message you receive. Possibly a message you can't read/parse, or don't want to. And you

I'm an outsider, but maybe it's a problem of their interaction? Most likely, the vast majority of Protobuf use is with code generated to a single, canonical location (which leads to the problem described above). But hypothetically

To be more precise, this isn't really a knock on JSON so much as the culture surrounding people who typically use JSON. Presumably you would be okay if the care and rigor were taken to define a schema and its physical representation ju

Out of the gate, identifying the OP as a theorist, isn't that an ad hominem attack? Why trust anything he says, he's a dirty theorist!
