I have liked the outputs and organization of [Reactive Resume](https://rxresu.me) in the past but I have realized it gets parsed unintelligibly by most ATS and seems to rasterize some sections as well. Is there a way to directly import json into the builder on this?
I have looked into Reactive Resume. It is a great tool and an inspiration for this project. How well the resume is parsed depends largely on the format you choose. Two column resume designs look good but aren't ATS friendly. You should be able to get better results with a single column resume. Import from JSON Resume hasn't been supported, but an issue has been created to track it: https://github.com/xitanggg/open-resume/issues/12
I believe the "state affiliated media" tagline is as you might guess, intended for media who's editorial opinions should be taken with their state affiliation in context. What utility does it serve to label SpaceX, Tesla, Lockheed, Boeing, or any other company that does not publish editorial opinions as "state affiliated". I don't get what people don't understand here.
NPR and PBS would not exist right now or in the future if their government funding grants were revoked. That puts a nonexistent bias on their editorial decisions. I seem to remember NPR "leaking"/breaking the story on WMDs in Iraq with one of their journalists directly quoting internal contacts in the Pentagon as their source. They are clearly far from immune to being used as agents of propaganda. That being said, I personally hold both NPR & PBS Newshour in very high regard. I do think that placing them in them in the same categorisation as RT or even the BBC is reductionist. Perhaps there should be varying levels of "state affiliated media" labeling.
You can't be in the space industry or even a tangentially related aerospace sector and not be a fan of SpaceX. It's continuously been 10 years ahead of the rest of the industry. The entire industry did nothing but tread water for 50 years after Apollo despite massive technology and manufacturing advances. The space shuttle was one giant deadly 30 year step backwards.
SpaceX has an effective monopoly on low cost launches for a reason. The closest company to it in terms of low cost capability is Blue Origin which hasn't even been to orbit yet. No one but ULA or Roscosmos is close in terms of reliable either. The Space Industry would still be launching single use overpriced rockets to LEO without SpaceX revolutionizing it.
Why would you want a terminal emulator anywhere near python? Using python for lightweight system utility gui apps seems like using a hammer to screw in a nail. Yeah you can do it and modern hardware is fast enough that you probably won't care, but why??
Python is a really good scripting language? I guess the big alternatives would be C and BASH and I'd pick python for short utilities over both of those any day.
I agree that it is a good scripting language. That's where it excells. A GUI terminal emulator however, is not a script... Python once compiled and using it's underlying c libraries is fast enough by modern standards but it is slow to start and projects using it are prone towards difficult to read/messy code.
Obviously the latter is up to the developer(s) and whatever standards they set for themselves but any software project tends towards paths of least resistance inherent in the language and frameworks being used over time as maintainers change and PRs fixes from contributers are merged. This is pedantic of course, but that doesn't change the fact that Python is not the optimal solution for this problem.
You seem to be off by an order or three of magnitude about what is "fast enough" for terminal apps, which haven't been a performance bottleneck for decades.
200k ops per second not fast enough for you? How many words per second do you type?
So why wouldn't you use it? I've have since the late 90s and even then it was faster than I could keep up with. Unoptimized Java Swing on SGI was the only thing that wasn't, from memory. More recently Windows Terminal had a very bad implementation for a while, but fixed it after their ass was handed to them over it here at HN.
I really don't know why you are so focused on the speed. Obviously python merely acting as translation to optimized c libraries is going to be fast enough. I said the performance difference was negligible on modern hardware. Python's speed is far from its largest problem as I outlined in the above comment.
I see, thought it was the main point, but there were others...
> but it is slow to start
This is not really true either. Sure not as fast as C, but imperceptible for the most part. And they have improved it in recent versions.
Yes, you can cause it be an issue with a poorly written or though out system, this happened at one job I had. But that wasn't Python's fault they decided to pull in thousands of files each invocation.
My Python scripts respond instantly, even big ones. I have a CLI photo editor and implementation lang is not an issue that I even contemplated until now.
> and projects using it are prone towards difficult to read/messy code.
Primarily large ones with a long history of alternating developers. There are great tools to improve its scalability; use them. The simple pyflakes will eliminate most issues. Type checking gets the long tail for the mission-important+.
Python is extremely slow for some tasks. I was surprised to discover how slow when I ran some benchmarks, despite having used python for many years at the time. It has been improving lately, but here is a blog post I made on the topic quite a few years ago that has some interesting comparisons: https://gist.github.com/vishvananda/7a2f1942d0e9ffff4093
Just reran the benchmarks from 10 years ago, python is only 37X slower than C on the benchmark now, and the go version is running faster than the C version. Python still has big productivity wins of course...
It was phishing and or extortion of a developer that for some reason had unilateral access to production databases and keys without any higher approval.
> This is true for a single panel. But the amount of sunlight which hits an acre of land is constant. If the land is 100% covered with panels, the panels will collect 100% of the available sunlight.
That is not true from my understanding. The increased solar angle of incidence effects how much of the energy reflects back into the sky. Having more panels next to it without a gap won't change that. Yes you can fit more panels in the same area without putting them on an angle but they will be quite a bit less efficient because more light will be reflecting back up per sqft of panel which is what matters cost wise.
Yes, one of the many areas of improvement of PV modules in the last couple of years has been reducing reflections from the surface of the glass and from the glass-cell boundary in panels. Also changed cell technology (n-TOPCon) helps with reflections and recombination within the cells.
I saw a video of two thieves doing exactly that in Chicago (or Detroit I don't remember) they kept hitting the guy over the head until he gave them the password and then shot him like 5 times.
This is the wrong way to approach mental health and privilege. All suffering/experience is relative to the individual. Your using the same "starving kids in Africa" argument and it is irrelevant.
> Anyone else curious how Musk would handle that Twitter account tweeting about his private jet flights if he owned Twitter? Strange to think that might be the real litmus test of how much he cares about free speech.
He would probably do nothing. Even under Twitter's currently very vague rules, that Twitter account didn't violate anything so I don't know how it would with even more specific ones he wants them to implement. All that information is already public record (you can lookup any plane like that's flight logs). He was probably just annoyed by it constantly popping up in his feed so he told an assistant to offer his equivalent of a couple dollars to the kid to stop.
>> Even under Twitter's currently very vague rules, that Twitter account didn't violate anything so I don't know how it would with even more specific ones he wants them to implement.
Rules don’t matter though. If it’s a private company owned by Musk he can just delete the account. No recourse for the user.
