I would say they are "fake" because they work using stolen identities and hide their location. In order to receive these high wages they need to pretend to be located in US and they need to provide the paperwork showing they have a right to work there.

Most Linux distros are not Arch either. It would be nice to have more support for this use case in general - like something one can configure easily during the initial OS setup.
I use OpenSuse so I had to use the guide for Fedora, but there were some differences as far as I remember.
als: both fitting and terrifying name for that new utility...
My neighborhood has underground power lines and we lose power every time there is a hurricane/tropical storm or even a major thunderstorm.
Considering the famous lack of appreciation for security and sandboxing in Clawdbot community this will soon transform into a very traditional botnet.
The customers here are the executives that then require everyone in their companies to "use AI". It's an old and trusted business model of selling software not to the users, but to their managers.
Bluey is pretty good in in that aspect too.
I've heard this "soft skills are the only skills that matter" thing throughout my entire career but these days this is indeed greatly amplified.
Our CEO started sharing screenshots of his xitter/linkedin feeds and most of them contain wisdoms like "Opus 4.5 is better than 90% of talent". There is also longer form business fan fiction. It usually follows this template: there is a hero - a humble manager/sales person, and a villain - a cocky, nerdy software developer. The villain claims that some task is impossible or takes months to complete. Then the humble hero (equipped with Opus 4.5) completes the task in 2 hours. The villain is then humiliated/fired and everyone lives happily ever after.
These posts definitely contribute to the declining morale among employees. Nobody goes "above and beyond" anymore - we just strictly doing the tickets and nothing more.
Totally agree! I'm adding the coffee stains to my resume as we speak.
Our CEO started re-posting this kind of stuff from various xitter influencers a few weeks ago. And now we're preparing for our first layoff.
This looks awesome. I don't have access to clang++ with reflection enabled yet so I can't really play with it. But does it handle correctly structures with padding (i.e. all members trivial but there is padding between members):
struct Data {
char c;
int x;
};They took over in Apple universe. For some people Apple is everything there is.

My last C++ job was for a robotics company a few years ago (pre pandemic). The job was not very “embedded”, but quite challenging - processing noisy images from lidars, etc. I worked 60 hour weeks and my salary was 80k or so. Then I realized I can get twice as much just writing Python micro services. So I became a Python developer instead. Much less stress and a lot more free time too.
Presumably this was for Expansion Pack that some people install for USB compatibility.
POE++11 will be the most important POE update since POE++98. In fact it will feel as a completely new POE.
That statement about open vs closed door was commonly used to justify open plan offices. Now it is being repurposed to justify in-office work in general. Interesting.
My experience is similar. All my carefully crafted resumes with cover letters were not even acknowledged. So I had to resort to resume spraying. After applying to 100 openings or so, I got one phone call which led to the interview and a job offer. I was not a great match for the job but it worked out fine.
My HOA will fine me $39 per dandelion.
This is a classic case of data driven development. If users do not sufficiently “engage” with a feature, it is removed.
For me a RPi lasts about a year on average, while an SD card lasts about a month.
That cold water is partly responsible for California’s perfect weather. A warmer sea would produce some undesirable weather phenomena like hurricanes.
Pretty much all know-it-alls think they are smarter that anyone else.
I miss n-gate. It’s thanks to them that I found out about hn.
It is partly a cultural problem. For whatever reason, malware-like behavior became normalized and expected in proprietary software. So in addition to providing “useful” functionality the software often has hidden “dark” side, like tracking/stealing information, telemetry, etc. Such behavior used to be reputation destroying in the past but it is expected today.
Some operating systems try to limit the amount of such malware-like things software can do while still allowing the useful functionality. Currently iOS seems to be the best popular option to run proprietary “apps” due to its easy to use permission model and good defaults.

In addition IPv6 has this weird restrictions on which prefixes are valid. For example if your ISP gives you /64 prefix, most consumer routers will not recognize it as valid. And even if you have a very configurable router it will take lots of work to configure that - even though in theory you should have tons of addresses available. And if you get a /128 prefix, good luck that - NATs are apparently disallowed in IPV6 world.
Yup. A delightful 500 for me. Github app on my phone seems to work though.
