Could be an emergent team problem that wouldn’t have had cause to exist before AI.

The first Apple Silicon developer boxes were Mac Minis with A series chips so I wouldn’t have expected any issues.

The A12Z in the developer transition kit didn't support hardware virtualization.

That's why I chose to specifically mention production. The developer boxes were to get macOS native stuff going but virtualization was not a priority.

But they also had iPad chips, not iPhone.

How many candidates did you send the take home to? You may have done a resume screen first, but it's unlikely your time commitment was equal.

I've worked at places that would send out 100. People would spend their weekends working on it and we often wouldn't even look at the submissions.

I sent out screens to ~15-25% of resumes (a higher rate for new grads, lower for seniors, not wanting to unnecessarily rule them out just because they didn't have positive evidence of potential success and didn't know how to write a resume, only ruling them out of there was positive evidence they'd be unsuccessful). That amounted to ~100 per position filled. Around half of those completed the take-home. Some of the rest should have self-selected out and didn't, which is something I'd like to improve if I run a take-home again.

You're right the time commitment wasn't equal. Early on I spent much more time than the candidates designing and analyzing the test. Afterward, their 20 minutes would usually take me <5min (often <1min for obvious failures and obvious passes, the average brought up due to time analyzing edge cases).

I did read every submission though. It wasn't wasted time for candidates.

I'd like to think I'd still treat you well, even though the interview process was decided by someone else and is completely out of my hands.

I have never downvoted for this, and I hope no one else would do that either. If anyone here does that, please stop.

We already mined enough uranium for 500+ years of energy but people want to bury it in a mountain instead.

Sounds common to have training in big tech but I never received any training either. Sometimes we’d discuss changes we wanted to make to the interview process, which suppose could be considered adjacent to training.

Sad if true. I used to really enjoy reading his freelance articles in various publications pre-AI.

This isn’t true? Myopia develops rapidly in youth then stabilizes in adulthood. It gets a worse with age, not corrective lenses. Then sometime after 40 you flip to presbyopia when your lenses lose flexibility.

I don't have severe myopia and I'm fine with no glasses for now. The optometrist detected .5 correction needed but advised me to not go for it for the reason I mentioned. I think they are more qualified to give this advice than some rando on the internet. If they were a mercenary they'd tell me to go for it, that optometry practice was part of an eye glasses store and I'm sure they'd gain from my business there. And here I am 20 years later not wearing glasses yet. As I'm getting older my vision is getting slightly worse, I'll probably get to wear them at some point but that's beside the point.

There is plenty of information about this in trusted sources, the way you're describing this is incorrect. Overcorrection and badly designed simplistic optics can make myopia worse in childhood when the eye is growing. Your eye is no longer growing.

Don't trust everything your doctor says verbatim, they often oversimplify and their information can be out of date. Give your doctor the benefit of the doubt but check it against other sources and use it to build a mental model.

I love Night Shift.
