> Overall, we expect to reduce our team size by around 10,000 people and to close around 5,000 additional open roles that we haven’t yet hired.

Wait so does that mean they'll end up with 10K less after hiring 5K folks? Which might imply that they'll be firing 15K people.

Well, that just depends on the programming book? If you pick up TLPI it will talk about stat and inodes. Pick up a book on perf, it will talk about syscall overhead, etc

I don't think that's a fair comparison. It's more like would you want your physical ailments treated by an unfit but talented medical professional or the fittest person at your local gym?

Or the difference between conceiving a child and raising one :)

This was the core motivation behind why I started https://www.discoverdev.io/

Ran this for about 4 years before I called it a day earlier this year. Got busy with graduation and job searching! I do plan to start it again after I find a job and settle down :)

Reminds me of this famous "Juice it or lose it" conference talk - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy0aCDmgnxg

Well the companies choose to own the network and run closed protocols. They are not just running a free service but gatekeeping an whole audience.

Either have standard open protocols or be regulated.

The classics should be available outside of scihub!

For example, Prior Analytics http://classics.mit.edu/Aristotle/prior.html

Most famous papers are available via Google scholar!

I think you mean "the list is not supposed to be exhaustive"?

Unless I'm reading it wrong....

How is this relevant to the article?

Ironically enough, Github seems to have unplanned downtimes every 3 months!

I actually just followed your link in the sibling comment ;)

So thank you

I curate a bunch of them at https://www.discoverdev.io/ if you're interested.

Been running for a few years now! Probably have a few 1000 articles curated :)

You did misread.

> Until esbuild came along, Rollup was the only sane JS bundler

Rich Harris did create Rollup

Yes, India doesn't use millions and billions, but lakhs and crores.

10 lakh = 1 million

100 lakh = 1 crore

RSS is as you mentioned, syndication. Not discovery.

I guess apps like feedly have RSS recommendations, but that's not the same thing.

Alternatively if the voice were male you'd have people complaining that it reinforces the idea that technology is male centric and it further alienates women in tech.

But yeah, I'd love gender neutral voice assistants as well.

https://exrx.net/ is another amazing exercise "database" which I've used for a long time!

Shh... Its "allow-list" and "block-list" now!

CHI has a lot of subcategories, each subcategory has a best paper award!

Scanning through the usernames and clicking on a few accounts, over 90% seem to be from college students in India :(

People starting at $4K are the ones who work for consultancies like Infosys, Wipro, et al. There is a reason why they're paid so less. They're usually graduates from terrible engineering colleges who have no real engineering skills what so ever. They undergo a 6 month training period before they can even start working.

My friends in Google India on the other hand make close to $50K/yr. My friends in Google MTV make $200K/yr. So the difference is 4x, not 100x.

Interesting, what is it that you do? Are you a consultant or do you run your own business or something else? Just curious!

It is an hour long talk (which I wouldn't have watched). I found js2's explanation very clear and helpful. Please don't be outright dismissive like that.

The lectures are by Onur Mutlu, an ex-CMU prof and a gifted teacher. He also teaches stuff on memory systems and digital design of circuits.

All of his course videos are available online on his youtube channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIwQ8uOeRFgOEvBLYc3kc3g/pla...

> Research has shown that, without that delay, users trust such websites less, or value them less, because the instantaneous response time is equated to less valuable work.

I'm pretty sure jdc was talking about this research, not the specific implementation.

I'm honestly more of a engineer / research person. I started this because this was something I was really excited by!

It do advertise every now and then but nothing too exciting in terms of $$. I did make a bunch of ideas on growing this into a blog + community + youtube channel + job board (for engineering heavy dev jobs). But I realised that would take quite a bit of time on the business side of things, and right now I just want to enjoy coding and building stuff.
