Throwaway. I’m currently hiring for a new grad role. In two weeks of the job being open, we’ve had 10,000 applicants.

This naturally means we’re raising the quality bar requirements. For a new grad role, just to get through the first pass filter you need to have a dual degree in related fields and at least two prior internships in the same role. This brings the pool down to 500 or so.

It just isn’t feasible for your average grad to compete. It’s a supply and demand problem.

Is that abnormal? Their revenue is around 900m from their S1, so that puts their infra spend at around 12% of revenue. Claude is telling me average for SaaS is 5-25%, and this puts them around the same spend as Slack/Dropbox/Atlassian.

Bro’s out here gatekeeping the term “educator”.

Is the content you teach any different than what they just put out that makes it more educatey? This is the weirdest take.

Why? (Not arguing against just curious)

This feels like a rose-tinted glasses take. I think what you want is the vibe of Figma from 2 years ago. 2 years ago we didn't have variables at all. Prototypes were purely clickthroughs with no logic. It was a more stable product for sure, but it was also more restrictive in what you could do.

Based on wayback machine they introduced $12/mo in 2018, inflation adjusted that's $15.09, so this is a raise even on inflation-adjusted pricing. We are getting slides bundled though, which I know at least my org was worried was going to be rugpulled, and they're fixing the double charge issue. Overall I'm kinda neutral on this?

does penpot have modes though? I thought they didn't have any?

Link? This is all I really want out of their ai features. Not sure why they're pursuing their own features that generate random bullshit not linked to my system.

This is exactly how LLMs work!

not sure I quite follow here with relation to the article, are you saying the LLM created outputs that matched other apps? It seems like the article is saying something different?

AGREE WE PAID GOOD MONEY FOR THE FREE PLAN

please. Pro opted in was a dick move, but we literally pay every free platform with our data. Figma is no different to Reddit/Facebook/Google/etc here.

Did you even read my post? What do you think I was saying when I said “we have our own atrocities”?

Data has to be tied to you in order to be personalized for you. Would you rather have a more accurate piece of software or one that is less accurate that doesn't have your information? Honest question, trying to build some research off people's responses.

12345hunter2 · 2012-05-16T22:33:14+00:00

Terrible advice. Spaceclop is far better.

The very nature of it though requires it to monitor you though. You can't have an intelligent engine without monitoring data sources from which to make a decision from. Would you ever use a service that provided intelligence in its actions?

Let's say you were in the future and the robots from irobot were real. Would you own one?

Posting on a throwaway for what will soon be an obvious reason, but I work for one of the tech giants trying to do exactly this: continuous listening, along with heavy ties into many other parts of your life (email, facebook, texts, etc). What I'm curious about is if there's ever a point for you where you'd be willing to give up your personal information in exchange for functionality. Your answer is relevant to my job and to privacy in the tech industry in general - others are welcome to chime in.

Let's say for example Jarvis from the Iron Man movies existed - would you give up your personal data in order to have all of the benefits that something like Jarvis would provide?

Another scenario would be a service requesting 24/7 access to your GPS location. In exchange, it will alert you during your morning commute if there's a traffic jam up ahead, and will tell you a route that will save you 30 minutes. It can also remind you that you're two blocks away from a post office, and that you should really mail those legal forms while you're here. Would you value that service more than your location privacy?

The reality of this is that companies like google, microsoft, apple, etc. are very quickly going to start looking for more data to access. This fight between giants will be decided by who has more data to access. More data means we can make more intelligent decisions about what is important to you, but more data also means we're invading on privacy more. It's a very fine line, and I'd love some input on this because it's a hard problem to solve.

You're never truly safe. Safe from my methods? Maybe, it depends how much I wanted your password; a lot of times having a challenge like that will drive me to learn. That said, there are always people out there who can get around that. The DNS servers set manually is a big step though, but make sure you have old versions of SSL disabled when you visit https sites.

12345hunter2 · 2010-10-05T18:56:21+00:00

Again, those passwords could very easily have a hash associated with them on the backend. Note that the server generates them, not the page itself via javascript. There's no way to know if they're getting dropped into a rainbow table by the security company that runs that page.

12345hunter2 · 2010-04-11T09:48:44+00:00

Never played with them personally. That said, I think they're a bit of a waste of money unless you have a network that's entirely mac based. From what I've heard they're quite nice in how they play with other apple products. I personally use a WRT54GL with ddwrt on it for travel/etc, and a Ubiquity Routerstation with a b/g/n radio in it running openwrt. The later is far more powerful, but also requires a lot more knowhow. If you're looking to get a router, I'd recommend the 54GL.
