I have no doubt you are correct (I am not in the Bay Area so I'll take your word for it), but I would also point out that Google is far larger than just its Bay Area presence. If hiring looks the same in other corners of the world wher

Though the pictures and copy clearly tell a different story, the tables are quite clear that "White" and "Asian" are the by far largest groups at Google. What I typically miss in these types of reports is a breakdown wit

It is not a technical problem, but a legal one. It is that they do not want to expose themselves by violating agreements with Apple. Do you want to be the genius that saved a few dollars on hardware with a Hackintosh only to get the company

If you chose the word "desperate" deliberately, would you mind telling us/me why someone with two-to-three decades of experience becomes "desperate" for a job? What did you work on during those years? Did you keep u

Thank you for listing an ecosystem of services that, from my point of view, seem to be overlapping quite a bit. I hope they can prune or merge some of it, because it sounds exhausting: do I as a GSuite user talk with an external person (say

Ok, sorry for being dumb. Is Google Meet actually an entirely new service, or just re-branded Hangouts? When I make a calendar event and choose to add video meeting to it, it's now a Meet, when it used to be a Hangout. My experience

There is an OS-provided timer interrupt that you can hook in to, making sure your interrupt handler is called every X time units. I think it was something like 18 times per second by default, but changeable. I used this to slow down my comp

This is the first I hear about this project. Is anyone using it and able to say something about how it works for them and, in particular, if it works well for bare metal clusters? I don't see myself using something like this on a publi

That sounds like a huge "1 issue", then, if Snaps are supposed to be the way forward for installing packages in Ubuntu as other threads make it seem.

Hard to not read that code name as "fecal fossil". Sorry if you can't get that out of your head now. I know I can't.

That web site is horribly out of date, and thus, their "activity rating" of projects is hilariously wrong. I was very happy to see that it claimed that my old pal fluxbox is highly active, but the last three news items on the flux

Theoretically you will be able to just run your Pods somewhere else, obviously, but if that was all Anthos gave you, then you were not in the target demographic anyway. I am willing to bet, although I have not tried Anthos, that the subset

Only if COVID-related deaths are counted the same way by each and every country, which is not the case now. Some only count if the person died in a hospital, for instance. Did not New York's rate take a major jump when they started to

Please write about some of these UI features, I would love to hear about it! I never got to play with it, because it demanded a much better computer than I had.

That sounds shady. Thank you for the warning. How does one determine that? Also not found on F-droid. Hard pass.

This was a higher-effort post than I had expected. The Game of Life implementation pushes itself into my Back-button browser history, which is rather annoying, but it was very cool to see some COBOL besides the obligatory Hello World. I har

One of the best offensive strategies you can have is to make sure all talented people work for you, rather than the competition. If smaller companies and startups fade away due to coronavirus-induced instability, making sure that their tale

Full agreement from me. My ergonomics and efficiency both improved immensely when I switched from my native layout to US International. With US International, unless I want to hit the key combo to change layouts, I can still write a single

I love the little joke that you ran "top" in the window that you had to look toward the ceiling to see. :)

Until I started blocking JS using uBlock Origin, my blocking must have been incomplete. Because I also saw that screen and it never worked. Now, it does.

Then your browser does a shitty job of telling Twitter that. Properly blocked JS gives you a link to "legacy" Twitter, which works perfectly without JS. At least viewing, which is all I do. Does this link work for you? https:&#x2

With announcements of this type of thing, what I think we all need to know is also "can you produce tons of these things right now", not just that they exist.

Block javascript on medium. Makes it much better, no nagging, no limitations... sometimes you miss an image or two, but the text is there.

Dipak Surie was at my department. His work focused, as I understood it, on learning what tasks people were trying to perform and what actions were included in those. Say that a person with dementia may be trying to make coffee, and would fo

Smart of you to target Nest cameras, since those customers don't care about privacy as much as HN readers that comment on threads like these do. There is plenty of academic research done on this stuff (I know, because a group at my dep

Unlikely, I'd say. If you fail to upgrade when a new release is made, are they at fault? You'd need to look towards providers that specifically take on more responsibility like https://compliantkubernetes.com/ (di
