Yes please

Or? MOV DX, 200 / INT 27H

I used to be in a similar situation (smartest, most innovative person in a team of nearly 2000 developers), then I jumped ship to a smaller but way more competent team. One one hand, now I occasionally get schooled by some of the smartest people around and love it, on the other, I (very rarely) miss being the king of the hill. I have since come to the conclusion that happiness is not (and should not be) tied to your work identity, what matters is people, friends, family and how one contributes to increasing the beauty of the universe. Sounds lofty and a little vague but that is by design, you have to find what motivates and excites you.

Some of us already deal with issues initiating and carrying social interactions, additional protocols around just saying hello seem unnecessary. This in itself is not rude as such but I have seen people responding to hello in a chat with this URL <- That I think is rude and counterproductive. Remote work is difficult as it is, don't be like this to people who have to spend significant amount of their lives with your pompous ass.

The author makes some valid points but I would like to live in a world where we can all get what we want without imposing our choices on others. With synthetic fuels and efficient combustion engines on the horizons, I applaud and am excited about the choices we will have and I am happy to do my part to counter the negatives (by using mass transit when I can, using electric cars for commutes and school runs, planting trees). In return, I would like to own and use my exciting ICE cars on race tracks, for fun trips and even grocery runs occasionally. Let's find the balance, without imposing our ideas on everyone.

The reason for my current user name here at hn was this exact form of racism. It is the first post I made when I created this throwaway. I was assured that my experience was unique and not widespread. I am both sad and happy to see this, sad because it exists, happy because it is getting some attention here at HN.

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that everyone of us needs to be vigilant about this type of racism. One thing I recommend to my hiring managers is to not allow people from frictioned backgrounds to manage and interview people from the other side. Example problematic pairs for candidates/interviewers (not including the cast situation) include: Indians and Pakistanis, Serbians and Bosnians, Greeks and Turks, Chinese and Japanese.

One way I solve this is by introducing an independent observer/participant when situations like this emerge. This is costly but it has really worked to not only address this problem but also created an amazing diversity in my teams because it takes care of some of the implicit bias we all have to some degree.

Interest is punishable, debt, not so much.

Hahaha, I think you have it inverted. Dang is the person, PG is the bot.

This^ is not me but I am curious. Why is this being downvoted?

I just applied for data engineering role and after completing the submission, got an instant (automated) rejection via email. I currently work for a FAANG as a lead data engineer and was willing to consider manchester based role for family reasons. An instant, automated rejection after a post to HN tells me everything I need to know about your organization.

I spoke to a VP at google in 2006 in london and discussed using a combination of curation and entropy to flush out duplicates. He seemed pretty excited by the idea but I don't think anything materialized. Which is another way of saying this is not new - in those days these sites were copying newsgroups too.

I am alarmed that the media in its pursuit of clicks and eyeballs would amplify the divisions using such collusion. An example article put forward by a main stream news organization: https://abcnews.go.com/US/type-gun-us-homicides-ar-15/story?...

The topic is already quite sensitive and divisive. Was it really necessary to use the image with a gun covered in american flag? If this is not fanning the flames of divisions, what is? And now they want to collude?

If this statement has elements of truth (I mean maybe it does?), may I please see the evidence?

Do we think security theater is symbolism? It has had some positives over the years just as masks have a huge positive health impact during COVID but on both sides of the issue, people treat it as a signal as well, no?

Can someone explain to me why ordering matters at all in financial systems? Transactions are idempotent by their nature and in this domain, I just don't see the value of imposing any kind of order. Am I missing something?

The corrupt developers don't like to publicize their corruption. I happen to know this because I know some of the players (and was even offered opportunities to invest in land before the decision to build a new highway was made public).

Some of this was done out of greed and political corruption so that developers could build more unaffordable housing for the wealthy - I would say the gp has some merit in their comment.

PB is probably prime brokerage, it is a managed service offered by large institutions to other large institutions.

When I first read Mana (https://marshallbrain.com/manna1), I didn't even flinch. I knew human greed would definitely lead to this future, what I did not anticipate was its arrival in about 10 years.

decarceration, even for repeat violent criminals and no penalties for property crime.

They sample it every few minutes or seconds.

Try scala and implicits!! or c++ template metaprogramming in late 90s and early naughts.

Why do you think they are NOT listening? Whatsapp and facebook messenger/chatter thing both have mic access for a lot of people and it is truly bizzare how topics of conversations, even the first time they are broached, end up in facebook ads.

What if I choose to stay natural?

Congratulation on the publication. I remember meeting you in Amsterdam Uber offices for a casual chat and coffee and really enjoyed our conversation. It was pretty neat that you were willing to nerd out with a rando from US over distributed systems and payments :)

Are you okay?

Thanks, this is cute.
