tl;dr : https://charlielabs.ai/how-it-works/ and https://docs.charlielabs.ai/daemons to get started, look at https://docs.charlielabs.ai/installation , but essentially 1) signup wi…

Just to be clear, that salary is prevailing wage which is usually lower than the actual salary you're getting (does not include RSUs or stock on top of that). In my case the differ…

>To be able to even consider to move there I would need a salary bump of 3x-5x. No way this will ever happen. You'd be surprised. Granted it was over a period of 4 years, but I did…

You mean this C++ code? std::vector > s; s.push_back({"a", 1}); s.push_back({"b", 2}); s.push_back({"c", 3}); I mean let's compare apples to apples here.

I'm unsure as how you would identify people across apps using cookies but.. okay.

Considering that Mobile is about 50% of web traffic and that cookies are not very useful on mobile as well as ITP, I would say fingerprinting has been a very practical in building …

Yes RVO is one case where the compiler will do it automatically. I think copy initialization of an object will have the same will apply copy elision as well to result in the same p…

>complaints about lines for the men's room after lunch? Spoiler alert: (non-contract) employees of big tech companies encounter those too. Interestingly enough, that's one of my bi…

I did mean insincere :). Thanks

While I agree that some Makefiles are terrible, I disagree that make is absolutely horrendous. It's sort of what you do with it; it's a copy paste garbled mess, of course it'll be …

Interesting! I only knew of one person back then but I guess they started building a team under him. I mean it does make sense, Montreal has plenty of AdTech talent.

That's a very important point. I moved from Montreal to NYC a couple of years back and one thing I definitively miss is the food scene. Not that NYC is bad by any metric but Montre…

I don't think AppNexus has offices in Montreal, just a few remote people. But besides that the list is spot on.

Without getting in the history of the parent poster, he's not wrong. H1B is a temporary (non-immigrant) visa which allows dual intent. Yes, most people on dual intent visas eventua…

I wasn't clear enough and I apologize. You can use cookies but they will only be within the context of a singular app's browser. For example, suppose that you use two web browsers …

Considering you cannot use cookies for mobile traffic, it's understandable that most firms are moving away from it. Fingerprinting and device IDs have been common for a few years a…

I mean it's not fair to add property taxes if you're not gonna do the same but you do have a valid point. It's way different if you're in Alberta (flat provincial tax) vs NY than f…

Yup. I'm also canadian that also moved down the US. That describes my experience perfectly. While rent also easily tripled (from Montreal to NYC) I can say I now manage to save wha…

They haven't for most cases but to be fair, even if the publisher would respect DNT, it doesn't mean that the ad-server at the end of the line or any of the other partners will.

1) Advertising 2) A lot. Publishers relying on clickbait to generate money. Advertisers creating invasive ads with autoplay sound and video. Ignoring do-not-track requests as part …

Just a note, looking at the way most companies I've been involved with handle RF testing, it still feels like some electrical engineering is at a premature stage also. Testing a tr…

Being from Quebec and working in Manhattan, I figure I can have some input on this. In Quebec, at income X, my effective tax rate was around 34%, which includes federal and provinc…

It's quite easy, just use bias. (No, not really)
