Article really offers no explanation of what "invisible fiver" is. Its just fiber with a thin, white jacket meant to be glued along baseboards where it is discreet.

I’m sure there are some safety issues I’m not considering that make it impractical to pump a high-powered laser into a wall cutout, burn a line-of-sight through all the studs, and install an optical link along the resulting path...

> The problem of running Ethernet through existing structures has spawned a bunch of tools, including glow-in-the-dark "fish tape."

None of these tools are new (well, the glow fish sticks I think are a recent innovation) or unique to ethernet. Electrical wire is installed the same way, eg. in conduit. There's even a special lube for making your wire slide through the conduit easier.

If you can't be bothered to copy edit the gratingly AI prose, I can't be bothered to read it.

> modern 'you have to use the command line and should know how to code' Drupal

I get needing to have command line skills for a web framework upgrade (doesn't seem like an unreasonable expectation to me), but why on earth would an upgrade require writing your own code?

Yeah, frankly the guy seemed like a real cad. I've always recognized the name as someone who was "around" the tech world, but never was clear to me he did or said anything interesting. This does not dispel that impression.

Immediately crashes on my phone, is this something related to Nathan Fielder's new doc?

What DMCA protections could Adobe use against this? Surely the look-and-feel case established they can't trademark their signature keyboard shortcuts?

If you look through the isos, it's actually a pretty slight sliver of (presumably) what exists. Most features just have a couple promo reels of the final shots and a handful of WIP stills, not much that shows their process. Also seems to only cover later projects that were mostly cg work. Hopefully someone at the studio grabbed the more substantial stuff?

What was that US robotics startup that got tons of press like a decade ago for their "human safe" cobot you were supposed to be able to program by just dragging its arm through the motions? It had a goofy LCD face, I want to say the co. was called US Robotics or something but changed their name, all I’m finding is the modem company though.

It's a startup, not a public company. I didn't know what you think your assumptions based on the US are bringing to the conversation. Not Posting is Always an Option.

IDK why all these replies are assuming OP was insinuating some negative judgement. To me, it's interesting that US investors are apparently interested in this EU firm that is pursuing the US market, despite no shortage of US startups in the same space.

OP made clear they were talking about automation engineers, not test or design jobs.

No, not really. That's info the OP could easily Google. The answer to their actual question can only be provided by someone with inside knowledge or access to paywalled trade publications.

Firefox fits that description aside obviously from Chrome extensions, is there something inherently more appealing about the Chrome API? Didn't they just sunset it and replace it with some crippled version that can't even support a decent ad-blocker anyway? I know of a few commercial products that only offer a Chrome extension I guess, but I would consider that those product's problems.

Afaict the niche they attempted to fill is the one Firefox already fills on desktop, a highly customizable browser with extension support. (Firefox does not support extensions on iOS, apparently has no plans to do so, and as I understand the support is somewhat limited on Android as well). I switched for about a year because they delivered what seemed like a serious effort at that with their initial release. After seeing basically zero effort at addressing very fundamental bugs in that support in that year, I switched back. As far as I’m concerned their battle is already lost.

The iOS codebase is the only one that potentially has any value to the OSS community; this kind of "enjoy our garbage!" source release really irks me.

This happened 18 months ago, you can stop hoping.

aka the person willing to work for a fraction of their worth.

I think the more common case is listings that are technically "open" but due to slow internal processes, repositioning, etc etc, no work is being done towards filling them that is visible to candidates.

For example, I've personally witnessed situations where the funding for a role gets postponed to next quarter, but my manager just kept it open anyway, either out of fear of missing out on the perfect candidate if they stopped accepting apps, or because it's simply easier than going through the HR process to re-post it in a month.

Workday is the only one of these I’ve heard of or encountered in the US.

Three jobs in 8 years? Seems like a red flag, we want to hire someone who will stick around.[1]

1. (Actual feedback I got in an interview two weeks ago, for a position no sane person would want to stay in for longer than two years.)

"Just email your cv" is literally impossible at many employers today. the app process is absolutely far more onerous for the applicant than it was a generation ago. For a bit of silver lining, I have noticed the "auto-populate from my resume" feature actually works reasonably well on some sites, which was not the case just a couple years ago when I was last looking.

I've noticed 3d printing people have this annoying habit of posting pics of their projects in just low enough res that you can't assess what the surface finish actually looks like. From what I can tell this "pebbled" finish looks uncommonly nice, I wonder if that's a byproduct of the glass fiber material or some post-processing.

"often"

I’m interested in your debugging of this device. I’m not interested in what your llm did in the process. Just mention at some point you used one; "Claude led me on this dead end" is not interesting content.

This "community" is clearly not a monolith.

Id like to see news about AI, just not AI tooling or "show hn my new AI project". obviously that's not as trivial to filter.

why wouldnt they? there are no real consequences for an algorithm.

I'll continue listening to my OS vendor rather than this random github user with some broken links, thanks.

(I’m not interested in being educated on this, I have better things to do. Bring it up with Debian.)

What more are you hoping for? There is no legal matter at play, is the court of public opinion going to subpoena their records?

I take it you are referring to this[1], which has nothing to do with training.
