This is the right answer. Bring a map and an action camera, maybe a burner dumbphone.

At work, would you rather have a boss that makes you implement dumb ideas? Or would you prefer a boss who recognises that your idea is better, then rewards you for it? You are interviewing them too. I would also have hired the candidate.

I think you’re an A player. You were rejected by a B player that was looking to hire C players. Apply to other companies. In this case it’s not you, it’s them.

Great comment, from a carbon perspective it’s even better than 51% . 16% is nuclear, and 19% is imported from France which is about 60% nuclear. Right now only 10-12% of our electricity is coming from burning gas.

Anecdotally, all of my old recruiters rang me up over the last week or so. 5 unsolicited jobs that were a good fit. I’ve had very few inbound calls from recruiters for 2 years.

Go on a psychedelic retreat. Psilocybin or Ayahuasca. Spend at least a week with a registered Shamanic Practitioner. It’s a fast track to the acceptance stage and it’ll help your friend enjoy the last part of their human experience. https:

That is based on 2 studies, one of which puts the US as one of the least racist countries and the other puts the US as among the most racist. Something is wrong. The US is very racist by self reported observation of racism. However citizens

Regarding China, Russia and India. They’ve all got a big problem with the literal enslavement of people from ethnic minority communities. I think that’s racism. https://www.walkfree.org/global-slavery-index/

Canada and New Zealand are part of the “west” so they’re very similar to the US. Jamaica is a good pick. A non western country that has very low levels of racism. Maybe the assertion should be that the US is amongst the least racist countri

South Africa is a very racist country. You’re not really replying to my comment please re read it.

It’s racism. I’m guessing you’re from the US, the least racist country in the world. People see he’s a different race so they treat him badly because of it. No one is worried about being called racist. He was arrested several times a day fo

Mostly enormous libraries of compounds. You take a cell culture model for the disease and see if the compounds affect the cells. Then try it in animals, then humans. Repeat this process until you have good safe drugs for all of the diseases

It’s theatre because you still need the non passkey recovery method. The system is as weak as its weakest link.

Interesting thought the LLM isn’t trying to win, it’s trying to produce data like the input data. It’s quite rare for a very strong player to play a very weak one. If you feed it lots of weak moves it’ll best replicate the training data by

100% Always measure before you performance optimise. Lots of times the “fast” solution is slower. If you need a fast solution then add an integration test so that the system stays fast.

It’s so easy to accidentally write an ORM or a database. I constantly stop and think; is this piece of code secretly a database?

Tests are great, but there’s more to programming than writing tests. People don’t have to mention tests in every article.

Another way to get a spacecraft to 550AU would be to use solar sails and ground based lasers. You have a small spacecraft (USB memory stick sized). Do a sub-orbital launch to get it out of the atmosphere. Then deploy the solar sails and fir

I find it easier to work in companies with monorepos. It’s much easier to grep for what you’re looking for. There’s no complexity hiding somewhere you don’t know about. Whenever I work somewhere with lots of repos I create a folder called d

The main reason for the growth of self scan was loss control (theft reduction). Most theft from stores is by staff not customers. Removing the human from the till reduced the theft. This worked for several years, until customers worked out
