In technical circles, I doubt it. ICs can do whatever they want. Performance is based on impact, so you have to pick the right things to work on yourself. There are very few non-performers because the calibration process is brutal and effic

Reminds me of the DOOM II sfx noise that's used all over in TV shows.

FINALLY! I've been ranting and raving about robotic seaweed and/or phytoplankton farming for bio CSS for years. Fractioning air with hand-waving energy sources can't possibly scale the way life has terraformed Earth. All you

In general, the answer for all people who are ambitious is "yes". 1. Weight biases in hiring and raises. 2. Social biases in friendship formation and retention. 3. More energy when healthy and physically fit, aiding productivity.

I don't know what "zerotrust" is supposed to mean. Maybe they're stretching the meaning of zero knowledge constructions. "Zero knowledge" should mean "the service provider never keeps logs, data, metadata,

Sometimes, they (US-based employers) just turn off badges and ghost employees without telling them. Employee shows up to work and wonders why they can't get on the elevator. They've been fired, but no one told them. Happens more s

Cool. Most talent for any given role is outside the hiring manager's country. Also, what some current alternatives to YC listings and (sunsetted) Github Jobs?

There is no real problem here, and knee-jerk over-regulating won't help anything. That small drones and hobby R/C planes need fucking transponders in the US is bloody insane. Seeing aliens or Soviets in every birthday balloon that

Mainstream media gaslighting Millennials having less discretionary income to feel happier about it? Also, sure, poor people in non-urbanized, less technologically advanced situations are happier but at what trade-offs?

Is this satire or an April Fool's joke? If not, is part 2: "abolish community and theory of mind"? I think some writers push extremist utopian/dystopian ramblings as outrage bait to squeeze out ad $$ rather than contribu

Sounds like wishful thinking/hand-waving. Plus, the risks of and limitations of nuclear energy. Biological processes are far more efficient at fixing carbon into biomass and using unlimited free solar energy. Bio CCS.

I don't understand the use-case of adapting human piloted offensive military aircraft to autonomous operation. A pure UAV would be more optimized for this role. I can't find the reference, but a business jet was experimentally con

I don't speak for anyone or any org. This is a normal thing. There's a normal fluidity based on what someone wants to do, IC or manager. There isn't really a pay difference. Being a Meta manager is a lot of work, especially t

(Can't post on /. and not interested in creating an account.) This "news" item mischaracterizes reality. It's not "many". It's "few" or "some" because no managers will get 20-50 IC

Needs massive energy input which would come from where? Also, massive amounts of toxic chemicals. Use biology to solve climate change by growing biomass (bio CCS) in the form of kelp, diatoms, and other high growth life (maybe GMO) to sink

Meta blocked access to staff from using DALLE2 or ChatGPT from their work Google accounts. Another possibility is AI generative "stenography" where rules exist to insert hidden meaning or hidden data.

I'm in Austin. I believe there to be inconsistency in zoning here because I'm on the top floor of a 10+ floor residential building looking down on a neighborhood park, single family homes, a motel, and smaller apartment buildings.

PA has random pockets of new development, like on Alma St & Page Mill across from where AOL was. Mountain View has much more around the San Antonio Shopping Center where it's starting to look like SF. I'm wondering if there wi
