Your personal stories are very cute, but they don't explain what you're proposing instead of tests. I'm not sure how you're going to use so-called "judgment" to decide which students get in out of hundreds of thousands of applications in a reasonable amount of time.

> I still contend strongly that it is wrong to distill a person into a collection of numbers.

Welcome to the adult world, where you are distilled into a collection of number each step of the way: look at credit scores, performance reviews, etc.

> I'll also mention that using tests scores is not entirely "fair" either.

Unfortunately we didn't come up with a better way to rank a group of people on scale in a reasonable amount of time. So tests are a necessary compromise. I also know plenty of examples where people aced their tests by just spending $30 on a prep book and studying hard.

so make it harder? Seems like a solvable problem.

It puzzles me why US colleges are allowed to consider anything other than standardized test scores.

Can someone with knowledge comment if charging a battery this way will significantly decrease its longevity? I remember reading that charging with a low current is advisable to preserve battery health.

Try consulting. Once your reach Senior Consultant level it's pretty much the end of the path for ICs.

I imagine it would be sufficient to show that he had to spend time or money analyzing the security impact of the event.

If a company pays peanuts it can have a job opening for much longer than 3 months.

They are not awful if you use right tools. Welcome to the world of Spark, Apache Drill, Trino/Presto, etc.

The guy is a chair at the Women's Flat Track Roller Derby Association and previously worked at a cannabis company. Interesting career change.

Is it because of cognitive load? I briefly looked at your project, and I'm still not convinced that your solution is easier to comprehend than

function onLoginClick() { validateFields(); networkLogin(); updateUI(); }

Sedentary lifestyle?

It would be great to add location and role filters.

Is there a good decision flowchart on how to chose GC for a particular task/application?

How is it patentable if the "prior art" exists?

Expect "Please enable internet access to use this app" popup messages in this case. A lot of apps already do this with camera/photos access.

You are donating to Mozilla Foundation. This doesn't fund Firefox development, since it's under Mozilla Corporation umbrella.

Current CEO has no vision and more interested in turning Mozilla into some version of internet ACLU. First and foremost she has to go.

I assume at some point Widevine plugin decrypts these files to display the actual video stream in the browser, correct? Why don't they capture already decrypted stream?

Really hope that this will be added to OSS fork of Mapbox [1]

"640k of memory should be enough for anybody"

Technically, it's not unlimited. More like 20-30GB at 5G speeds and everything after at unusable speeds.

I think the majority of people resort to this hack because security folks in their infinite wisdom require to use alpine and nothing else. Unfortunately, a lot of libraries don't support musl and have no plans to support it in the future, so you have to be creative.

Same thing is happening in Russian Wikipedia. Majority of articles are written from the official pro-Kremlin point of view and any attempts to change that are blocked. Given that there are millions of Russian-speaking people live outside of Russia, something like this split needs to be done.

What kind of target audience can drop this much monthly, but can't afford a computer with 16GB of RAM? Genuinely curious.

What scale? They lost most of their market share and they have a pretty low headcount. Wikipedia says they have around 750 people, but after the most recent layoff it's probably closer to 500. For comparison, Lime (scooter company) has about the same number of people. I think it's fair to compare Mozilla to a medium-sized non-profit, which would put CEO's salary in the 500k range.
