I am not sure I would want my database tested by a vendor who feels it their duty to provide color commentary on my software development methodology in a public report, no matter how rigorous their evaluation.

First, you should clarify what it is you want to do. What type of "a job" do you want? Then reverse engineer how to get there. The more fancy a job you want, the earlier you need to start accumulating some sort of social proof you are a "high achiever", especially if there is nothing particular special about your background. If you're not sure, your best best is probably to go after the best opportunities and experiences which are available, and go from there.

They are literally being forced to do this by the government. The counter-ask if for them to self immolate in order to take a principled stand, as access to all their models is banned.

Yes, it's the ads. After all, we know how economical and fast it is for people to access healthy meals. I look forward to the speedy eradication of all obesity problems

"We are not influenced by any foreign government, including the Chinese government."

It is laughable to suggest that the basis for this ruling is anything less than fear and paranoia about Chinese government softpower. Nothing they could have said, and no fact they could bring to bear, would change the outcome of the court, which has been predetermined, for better or worse, by the current American political climate.

What about X (the everything app)?

Could happen under Trump...

you do not think there are legitimate hedges which can be made with events trading on prediction markets?

I think, indeed, a lot of people are effectively using the markets to gamble, but the same can be said for equities/futures.

I see no reason they shouldn't be allowed, since there are proxies that people can trade as well

I don't understand how the award is only $250? Isn't there some market standard for determining the damage amount

No they didn't. You can read the actual document the stuck at the very end of the article.

I think most modern Python codebases are using dataclasses/ something like Pydantic. I think dicts are mostly seen, like the author suggests, because something which you hacked up to work quickly ends up turning into actual software and it's too much work refactor the types

Meta is already a target for regulators - they are going to have to be very careful around this. I think this is why the "metaverse" is still more likely to be decentralized than created by a tech giant. Even if Meta wanted to take a libertarian, "dream whatever you want", stance or even a "dream whatever you want so long as it is more or less legal" stance, they would see a regulatory deluge come pouring down on them. There is no way VR will be able to go mainstream without a drawn out fight over content prohibitions. I think the early internet was a bit of a historical outlier in this sense, where it happened to come about when a relatively laissez-faire attitude towards censorship was prevailing and people did not realize the full impact it would have. That is not the case now. People understand on all sides that this technology has the potential to revolutionize our systems of social relations once again, and I suspect that they will be fighting tooth and nail to shape that outcome as they most desire.

You do not need to know how `useState` works to understand how to use it to write a React application, it is fairly intuitive to understand how to apply the pattern.

If I look at your library, it seems to me like it requires a much more complex mental model to begin to use.

Of course, it is better in theory for a developer to thoroughly understand the details of their framework, but empirically, React has been very successful in allowing people to build relatively sophisticated applications while understanding very little of the underlying model.
