reflexe··on Ask HN: What Recession?
Just happened to me this week with a quite large international company: I got interviewed for an engineering manager role (that was also the title of the meeting in the email), at the end of the interview (2 hours), the interviewer told me that he is sorry but "they want someone with 10 years of experience and my CV doesn't match" but they will be able to recruit me as a SWE role if I want and then wait one year and maybe I will get promoted. Needless to say that even if I was interested, I will never work for this company.

Maybe the solution here is do adopt the approach from humans: if you independently produce someone's copyrighted work and then discover about it - you'll drop it. The same approach could be used here, they can add a check for the similarity between the output and the original training material, if it is above a threshold, they'll drop the suggestion (maybe they are already doing that).

Maybe they should send a DMCA to gboard first since it uses giphy.
reflexe··on Ask HN: Burnt-out, directionless but want to turn it around
Someone who has been working in a small team for 4 years in a startup has to be "good enough". Which is far better than the average candidate who can't keep a position for more than a year and needs constant help from the manager in order to accomplish anything. Maybe my standards are low, but unfortunately, I have seen so many of these cases.
reflexe··on Dragonflydb – A modern replacement for Redis and Memcached
Interesting. Have you considered/tried to use fdio/user space networking? In my experience, it greatly improves throughout (simple ip forwarding can be more than 10mpps per cortex a53 on some platforms). Fdio also has a so that you can preload in order to use its ip stack in your app (instead of Linux's).

See https://s3-docs.fd.io/vpp/22.06/developer/extras/vcl_ldprelo...

"This page was last edited on 28 May 2012, at 07:46."

Maybe better to add this date to the title.

reflexe··on Crimes with Go Generics
Maybe I am missing something here but as someone who is not an expert in go generics, I don't see any obvious "crimes" with the Option and Queue implementations.

I also could not find where the author explains their "crimes".

What I am missing here?

reflexe··on Bore: A simple CLI tool for making tunnels to localhost
Great job! By the way, the term "bore" (בור) in hebrew means 'pit' :)
reflexe··on Indian threat actor Patchwork APT caught in its own web
In Figure 3 you can see what looks like a webshell. They probably found a way to upload php files to the server which allowed them to do anything.

Alternatively, they might have guessed the password and then uploaded the file from the web gui.

reflexe··on Show HN: I made a modern web UI for Wikipedia
I'm too scared to install extensions, any other way to see your design? Looks cool, in any case.
reflexe··on Goodbye Brave
Brave is a bit shady with its hard coded ad whitelist. That does not scream "user trust".
reflexe··on Ph.D student demonstrates a single, working laser on silicon
Very interesting points. Thanks. Maybe in the future we will have high bandwidth chip to chip standards (like PCIe, and network chip to chip standards like XFI) with optical communication for better latency, especially in large switches with latency constraints.
reflexe··on The Wayforward Machine
But it is not their content. Their whole goal is to save other people's content. But then they won't allow 9ther people to download this content.
reflexe··on The Wayforward Machine
Ok. That was anticlimactic

(And in general, the web archive is a bit hypothetical since downloading saved websites is disallowed according to their tos)

reflexe··on Show HN: Web browser to help programmers think clearly
Yea, let me just install this big binary blob and trust a random folk on the internet it will never contain any "ad sdk" that will collect my ssh key and gcloud token.

Cool idea, however.

reflexe··on Amazon Kindles with 3G will start to lose cellular network access in December
Alternative title: "3g is old and going away" What a crappy clickbait.
reflexe··on “Tivoization” and Your Right to Install Under Copyleft
Bash and readline are both gpl-3. In theory, in some cases, you can force the company to give you the option to replace them with your version. Cleaning up gpl-3 is not fun.

With the chip shortage, looks like we are safe.

I feel cheated now
reflexe··on How to Read Books When You Have ADHD
Haven't managed to finish a paragraph in this book-long article. Looks like I will never know how to read books after all.
reflexe··on OpenSearch: AWS fork of Elasticsearch and Kibana
It it quite funny, elasticsearch is also kind of wrapping an open source library (Apache Lucene) and selling it as their own product.
reflexe··on Beej's Guide to Network Programming (1994-2020)
I read your guide when i was 14 (translated to hebrew), until now, i have managed to write a functional usermode tcp/ipv4 stack, and now in the middle of development of a usermode-based wireless networking device in an international company. You are a big part of it. Thanks.
