So maybe we need programming languages that are really good/supportive at handling errors (while not introducing more of them)?
Well, good management/tech leadership is about making sure that the risks coming from individual failure points (10 people in your example) are recognized and mitigated, and that the individuals involved can flag risks…
The problem with collapsed repeated chords comes not only from the data processing -- most Ultimate Guitar songs are written down entirely ignoring how often a chord is repeated -- the classic "lyrics plus chords"…
Typically, chord progressions are described independently of the key they are in. For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%2750s_progression
While this is from ByteDance, who also are behind TikTok, this algorithm is likely not the one behind TikTok. Instead, it is likely a component that powers ByteDance's commercial recommender system solution, which they…
Most of these sound like team/people problems, not technology problems. Like most problems in IT in general :-)
... and the compound interest of being consistently slightly better makes these people much better than others in the long run.
People here in the comments seem to focus on whether it is possible to predict an artist's success based on secondary "civic" virtues, and criticize the author for having subjective criteria for what "success" means.…
"The people" are the president's superior.
IM software can be closed, too, and in a healthy company the expectations around IMs should not be that they are "instant", but more of an async medium like email.
Next step: The Onion buys X.
Really interesting story. Different from a standard VC biography. Thank you for sharing it, Adam!
I do not think that guy was only caught by accident. More red flags would have been raised if there had been further interviews.
At least there were tests ;-). I am somewhat surprised that a programmer who was unaware of arrays in Perl managed to have tests. But then again, he managed to implement their own version of arrays, maybe he came up…
It's cheaper for a (large enough) state to just damages/settlements, rather than paying insurance contributions. Many countries manage to have (mostly) courteous and effective professional police forces without using an…
And Perl 5.

"Fifty Sounds" by Polly Barton is a book-length essay about this. Very entertaining read. Plus some Wittgenstein thrown in ...
I'd say making adding new features that deliver value safer is an even bigger benefit of having tests.
Why is this post flagged? In which way is it against the guidelines?

Maybe try Debian stable? Ubuntu is based on Debian, and the releases receive mostly security updates ... so this might be really something for you. Also, no snaps as far as I know.

This blog post is unlikely to contain TikTok's secret sauce, or even anything that is actually used by TikTok. ByteDance runs TikTok, but they also sell recommendations as a service. The paper that this blog post is…
