Which is to say he's doing kind of shit security, no? I'd have guessed one of the points of security is to keep people who didn't pay, out.

I think "welcome at almost all places" is dramatically overstating it. I think you are more likely to get in trouble for shit talking internally than externally, if only because the people who care are more likely to hear.

Probably not. That was my view of them, but that's probably my not really paying attention. It wouldn't surprise me if there was also some element of them giving a misleading impression, but I don't want to go try and find p

Open ai has had a surprisingly fast pivot from the appearance of being a scrappy open-ish company trying to build something to share and improve the world to more or less unmitigated embrace of the bad sides of big corporate. This is so unb

Thank you, I did not read the article and assumed (based on other comments which are pretty clearly assuming the same) that the title was accurate.

Software also kind of has reinvented finance. The crypto thrust specifically not so much, but the modern financial system does not look the way it does without software.

Don't they usually store a hash of it? And doesn't it therefore for the most part work exactly the way you say it ideally should? Of course leaking the hash of my password might make it easier to crack, to some extent, but if they

Its easy to find. This tone suggests that the person's argument is somehow invalid because they reference easy to find documents without linking them. Perhaps this isn't the intent, but it reads to me as combative, which seems unn

Sure, but how do you know who that is? And if you give it to 300 random people it probably gets very little done. I'd certainly do nothing of value with it, and I like to think I'm both a decent dev and a decent communicator, so i

Agree that the title is misleading. The article at least has the good grace to correct itself in its subtitle and also quite quickly within the text.

They say in the OP that they did this as opposed to database homework.

Presumably they save it by placing it into the market in lots of cases, no?

Yeah, I just thought the reference to CA minimum wage at all seemed a little out of place.
74.
by joebob42 4y ago
They keep saying they make less than ca minimum wage, but as best I understand they don't work in CA so I don't understand why that's relevant? People all over the world make less than CA minimum wage, it's a lot of mo

Yeah, sorry, Im not trying to make a claim as to the cause here, just agreeing that this really does exist and really does make life way shittier in some very major cities.

I don't know. I lived in a wealthy suburb outside San Diego and did not experience this problem (I used to leave my keys in my car with the car unlocked, which was obviously moronic but never caused me any problems), and I lived briefl

I live in a decently "nice" part of Seattle. Constantly concerned stuff will get stolen. Have had car broken in to more than once. "Terror" might be overstating if, but the level of property crime is objectively harming

I've never understood the elsagate content. Why are they making it? Is it the sort of thing that young children find appealing if left alone? I can't understand why that would be, and it doesn't seem substantially easier to m

I'm not clear why they would be responsible for his hitting a pedestrian.

I don't think it's worth what it costs.

by joebob42 4y ago
I don't think anyone is claiming that's the only factor, but it does seem that some people have higher natural aptitudes for some modes of thought, at least to me.

For baseball card I basically agree, with the main difference being you won't reliably make money on a given card. Some will go up and make you money, but realistically it's a collectible. For lumber, there is an end user who wa

Its definitely worth considering, but it's also entirely possible (especially at a very large company) that you are being hired into a different part of the business which is in some way isolated from the layoffs. E.g. joining a core b

I don't think for "art as art" purposes where we take some painting and say it's worth a million dollars and put it in a museum ai can replace humans. But a lot of art is much more utilitarian: art in games, art in movi

by joebob42 4y ago
Sure, but that's a different and unrelated argument to the question of theoretical cost which is what was being discussed.

I have minor adhd, which winds up meaning I rarely make it through a full hour of work without some small diversion, and each days work looks a little different, but I still get done what needs doing in aggregate. I moved to billimg by the

It honestly doesn't really matter. That's a plausible explanation, but the customer shouldn't have to care / make special allowances because this is a big company with lots of people. It either does good things or it do

Yeah, that's fair, if I only got base salary I'd be pretty strongly disincentivized to take such a deal.

But if they're willing to pay it, it seems like it probably means this is a real issue rather than just a way to punish employees who leave, and it seems like they're reasonably compensating employees for the problem.

I'm not 100% sure if this is satire but it brought me joy.
