Not true for the past 7 years. A Uber or Ola driver or a construction worker can make Rs.30000 per month which is the same a fresher software engineer makes at WITCH.Bit ofcourse the working conditions and future growth is very bad for a driver or a labour where as a s/w engineer has a huge opportunity provided he works hard.
Email privately and get noted for life. This is really annoying when some one complains publicly and they ask your to email in private. Why don't you go through the old emails and provide a solution.
Because it wasn't sufficiently clear to GPP that it was IDA Pro's support that was problematic. GPP incorrectly thought it was BinaryNinja support that was the problem, which isn't the case.
I haven't used Simulink since my control systems classes in college.
With that being said, certain tasks (control systems is a big one) naturally map really well to Simulink because the graphical block-diagrams in Simulink are identical to how your teacher draws out the system on the blackboard.
To use an example, power systems texts might use Matlab to show the algorithms for transmission level powerflows (Newton-Raphson, Gauss-Seidel, Fast-Decoupled, DC), but they use Simulink to show how the control systems on a generator are modeled and you can easily inject an oscillation and plot out how it would impact the generator. You could of course model the control systems of the generator with regular code, but I think it would be far harder to reason about. I know Scilab has something called "xcos" or something like that which is the beginnings of a free Simulink competitor, but I haven't seen anything in Julia or Python that can do what Simulink can do. If someone knows how to best do controls work in Python or Julia, please let me know how.
Hide YouTube suggested / recommended sections both on the front page and to the right of the player. It's disturbing to see how much this changes my consumption patterns.
I'm beginning to realize that instead of using YouTube:
explicitly search for video
-> watch video
-> read a comment or two
-> close tab
YouTube has been using me:
open main page
-> get distracted by a video that an algorithm knows I'll be interested in -> click a couple more recommended videos
-> fall down the auto-play ad revenue rabbit hole
-> hour later: 'oh yeah, why did I open YouTube...?'
-> perhaps search for intended video, perhaps get distracted again
-> etc. etc
This trend has become synonymous with popular internet services over the past 10-20 years. These services are marketed as a way to connect with distant friends, view all the multimedia the internet has to offer, save us money, etc. when in reality the majority are leveraging large-scale data collection combined with neural nets to hijack our brains' reward systems just for the sake of greed. God bless uBlock!
Example: I use default-deny 3rd party scripts and frames + disable javascript everywhere by default. I temporarily enable these only on a per-site basis only if really needed (permanently for the few sites I visit regularly).
The wikipedia page is completely broken on mobile devices during the fundraiser. (Text in the popup is so large that it becomes impossible to hit the close button).
I have donated to wikipedia for the past 5 years, and will continue to do so. But the fundraiser banner is just terrible, and persists after you donated.
It is really annoying to get that even after donating. I have never signed up for a wikipedia account (which, now that I think about it, is kind of amazing?) but if I had one, would the donation dialog disappear after donating? Maybe I will sign up to find out.
