We're getting enough candidates, but many good ones are simply turned off at some point because the salary or position doesn't match the high expectations we implicitly set. This, …

I would say that indian CV are simply on another level, I have no clear idea why. We're posting positions online, and the openings are often automatically indexed by several job se…

The barrier is lower for applying, but as many other posters saying, there is simply just interest in quick ROI and zero willingness to think long term. I recruited for several yea…

Marginally related: is there something native (and for linux/unix) equivalent to shadertoy? When debugging a sharer it's quite handy, but the web interface is just too laggy for me…

But is it? I don't actually think it's bad design. Having system images of a pre-loaded heap is pretty common in many systems and languages. How such systems are generated and load…

I would have several actual uses for VR, and from the top of my head I'd kill to have proper depth perception and enhanced controls while modeling the solids I have to make. The he…

I'm not sure I've seen any "user interface innovation" done with HTML. Pick a book on GUI interfaces of the 80ies (for example: Computers Graphics by Foley & al), and see that pret…

You're trying to conflate document design with UI design. By the writing of the author, he is clearly doing just fancy documents. He didn't even touch the problematic issues you no…

My take from the experience was that if you have an active social life outside of your colleagues and work is "just work" for you, then a full-time remote job is probably fine. Sav…

I worked remotely for more than two years because I had to move to another place. I loved the company and they were quite happy as well, so they let me work remotely full time with…

This has not been my experience, not at least in research or IT/research sector. More hours do not translate in more results _or_ more focus. I've seen also an inverse relationship…

Whoa there: fixed top banner with an actual banner at the top, covering a whopping 20% of my screen height and 80% of width. Didn't see something like this in a long time. I'm neve…

As a developer, I'm not so sure about that: I don't use any web and non-native program by choice. In fact, I'm even stricter than that, I can tell you at a distance if a program wa…

I read both, and I can confirm that meltdown is not fixed by the microcode update alone. But I'm confused by intel claiming a fix for all three variants of exploits: I would have r…

Can somebody shed some light in what exactly the released Intel Microcode update does aside from exposing some chicken bits? This is only marginally addressed in the "Controlling t…

Reducing the resolution coming from system timing sources is not going to stop attacks which have potentially infinite execution timelines. Limiting JS execution resources, and in …

It's a classic problem with markdown: it's a minimal markup language, which is ok for comments and super simple documents, but requires extensions for pretty much anything else. Th…

Since I've discovered "nickle"[1] (by pure chance), I've been aliasing bc=nickle on every system I had access to. nickle has normal algebraic notation with arbitrary precision, con…
