> _remember where exactly I heard a particular sentence_
Ha! Yes. Sometimes VLC doesn't remember where I was in the book so I have to faff around a bit and try to figure out where I was.
When I skip to content that I've heard before, usually I not only remember that I've heard them before, I remember where I was on my walk when I heard them!
Everything I see has a "uni" wordmark for the pencil company. However, AIUI mitsubishi more or less means "three rhombi" -- the companies are both named after the same family crest.
I felt like kind of a numbskull when I made the observation that "Asahi" must be a similarly diversified company (Asahi Pentax cameras, Asahi beer) and was informed that "Asahi" means morning or rising sun by some patient soul.
It happens everywhere: Ford's Theater (Washington DC) is not related to the Ford Theater (Utah); similarly unrelated to Ford Motor Company, Ford Instrument Company, or Ford Meter Box Company.
> Their Boxy eraser is amazing...Anyone know of a better one?
Erasers continue to improve. One of the newer foam erasers, such as from Sakura, will probably perform better. There are many informative customer reviews at JetPens. Check out this sampler of their most recommended erasers: https://www.jetpens.com/JetPens-Eraser-Sampler/pd/19499
During the Covid pandemic, I watched from a distance a group of 6 people start and destroy a project.
After the 6 months, they didn't even have a a MVP.
This was run on a 6 month fund from the local government. They didn't know each other but they all knew that after 6 months it'd be over unless they'd secure more funding.
They spent the time faffing around, configuring things, splitting things, ... effectively making things harder for themselves.
How about you click the article link and find out? It's even at the very top of the article for once:
- 88% of workers will demand to know the salary range for their current position, if permitted by law; 68% will demand the highest end of known salary range
- 1 in 20 workers would quit if it’s revealed co-workers earn more money; 63% would demand equal pay
- 85% say they’re more likely to apply to job that lists a salary range
- 42% say the salary ranges companies list should be limited
- 63% worry salary transparency will cause problems among co-workers
- 92% of workers support salary transparency laws; 61% say laws will improve wage gap
I was thinking about the psychological effects. The article mentions it but doesn't go into it: "However, 63% do fear it will be problematic to know how much their co-workers make"
If you look at the list of problems I wrote you see they are psychological.
I think with the scale requirements of YouTube, we can not assume that the search is powered by one single DB or any traditional, relational DB at all.
Some things that are easy with one DB, get surprisingly hard when you scale up. Lets give them the benefit of the doubt regarding technical issues here.
I don't give them the benefit of the doubt, because they should have had proper testing in place before anything like this reached production. This is either intentional or grossly negligent.
