"under the hood git rebase main is merging the current branch into main (it’s like git checkout main; git merge current_branch"

This is wrong. 'git rebase main' doesn't affect main at all! If you are on main and check out a new branch, then add commit-one, then switch back to main and add commit-two, then switch back to the new branch and 'git rebase main', your new branch will have commit-one and commit-two, and main will still only have commit-two.

it's much more like simply 'git merge main' with some extra magic to avoid a separate merge commit.

I discovered that some were playing Q3 at ramped up physics speeds in single player. When going back to playing at regular speed, it feels like you're playing in slow motion.

That's amazing, like training at altitude but for e-sports.

just preparing for and attempting the interviews at [better companies]

This really rings true, I attempted and utterly failed an interview recently and was a real kick up the arse to improve myself - I'm no longer the hot shit I was 10 years ago.

Very funny, you almost had me.

There's a fair bit of Hieronymus Bosch in there too.

If you can't find a job title, why not put the whole first line of the original posting. Better to have that than a sea of "no job title found", imho.

Growveg.com | Remote, based in UK | Full time JS Developer needed! https://www.growveg.com/recruitment.html

We are a small, profitable company who build edible garden planning software. Our iOS app Garden Plan Pro was featured in a WWDC video, and we are now looking to rebuild our flash based planner in JavaScript. We're also working with the university of York on a research project to create a machine learning driven pest prediction service.

We are seeking to hire a new developer to help us deliver the next generation of garden planning software, and you'll be joining a small highly tech driven team and given autonomy and ownership over a brand new project.

I personally have been working here for 2.5 years and can attest to the fact that it is a really great company to work for, so feel free to chat informally to me (@user24 on twitter), or contact us directly via the website above!

image recognition algorithms would probably find this kind of input quite hard.

I doubt it; they could just run it through a blur filter and then apply normal CV to it.

Very cool. I was thinking of expanding mine to work with other recipe sites, so this may come in handy, thanks!

I'd love them to release it as open data so that I'm not in murky waters.

If they move the recipes I can update the links. If they take the recipes down (which they've said they won't, now) I have got all the data so could rehost them.

edit: but, if you want to do some fun ML work, my scraper should help get you started!

nice idea. Eventually, if I add more recipes, I'll need to move the search serverside too.

On Tuesday the Guardian reported that the BBC (fondly aka Auntie) would be archiving their recipes, so I quickly scraped the site and wrote a search engine for it.

Not sure how the site will evolve, if at all, but it was a fun side project!

The consensus is that it was not from the real Satoshi.

In fact the reaction to that forum post are the same as the reaction to CSW's claims: Sign it or it's worthless.

The only time Satoshi spoke out was to help the poor bloke who was mistaken to be Satoshi

no, the forum account was hacked to make that claim. It wasn't by Satoshi.

I get the connection, I don't get the joke...

Holy Moly.

Without access to his records, prison psychologists assumed his tales of talking to Islamic State members were fiction, symptoms of a mental illness that made him incompetent to stand trial. Prosecutors sought a hearing to decide whether he should be forcibly medicated.

jobs that are regarded as satisfying and challenging are approached by so many talented people that they don't have to pay very well and the conditions are usually not great.

Agree! If I could be a florist on a developers salary I would jump at it and never look back.

not entirely sure of the distinction ;)

And fuel, and vehicle maintenance, and maybe the personal liability insurance.

I've had the same experience, also in the UK!

But as to it not being the greatest experience, well, yes they are not always as professional as real courier companies. And a lot of the time they've just said "User24?" while handing me the package, so Amazon probably need to put a bit more effort into training. And I wonder how easy it would be to provide fake ID to Amazon and just steal a whole load of admittedly random packages? But, maybe that was the point of this possible trial, to identify issues like that so that the launch experience would be better?

oops, missed that.

What did they do with the things they didn't claim? Just seems a shame to have let the unclaimed prizes go to waste.

I... didn't even know there was a Windows 93.

edit: oh, right.

Great explanation of priviledge.

Me too, but in the back of my mind is always the knowledge that it's a slippery slope argument and therefore technically invalid.

I dunno, 59 degrees seems quite chilly if you've just been stripped naked and soaked with ice cold water. Note no mention is made of whether the detainees were dried or clothed first either.

Yes because it produced the opportunity to do good. At the time of publication it couldn't be known whether good would be done or not.

You can't make moral judgements from a viewpoint that assumes knowledge of the future.

The list goes on.

It sure does.

At DETENTION SITE COBALT, detainees were often held down, naked, on a tarp on the floor, with the tarp pulled up around them to form a makeshift tub, while cold or refrigerated water was poured on them. Others were hosed down repeatedly while they were shackled naked, in the standing sleep deprivation position. These same detainees were subsequently placed in rooms with temperatures ranging from 59 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

two detainees that each had a broken foot were also subjected to walling, stress positions, and cramped confinement, despite the note in their interrogation plans that these specific enhanced interrogation techniques were not requested because of the medical condition of the detainees.

CIA records indicate that Majid Khan cooperated with the feedings and was permitted to infuse the fluids and nutrients himself. After approximately three weeks, the CIA developed a more aggressive treatment regimen "without unnecessary conversation." Majid Khan was then subjected to involuntary rectal feeding and rectal hydration, which included two bottles of Ensure. Later that same day, Majid Khan's "lunch tray," consisting of hummus, pasta with sauce, nuts, and raisins, was "pureed" and rectally infused. Additional sessions of rectal feeding and hydration followed.

edit: And I mean those are just the emotive gut-wrenching things. Skimming the rest of it, it's filled to the brim with the CIA lying about the extent, efficacy and importance of the program. To me, that is the more worrying part. Anyone who's studied basic psychology gets taught Zimbardo and knows what happens when you run an unregulated prison. While disgusting it's not surprising.

But what is really surprising is the extent to which the CIA was willing to lie and obscure the truth even to their superiors.
