Comprehension is functional programming too, they arise from list monad www.schoolofhaskell.com/…/13-the-list-monad And Haskell do notation indeed reads top-down, unlike Python, but I find both quite readable.
- Comment on What Does Palantir Actually Do? 2 weeks ago:
Engineers can laterally move to more prestigious or challenging projects if they prove worthy based on their skills and connections. One former staffer tells WIRED that this made the company feel like a meritocracy where the best people, and the best ideas, naturally rise to the top.
I am very interested in the culture and psychology of these supposed “meritocratic” companies.
Usually I find these policies, instead of encourages good ideas, just enables a hyper-competitive environment.
These kind of environments usually do not support solid well-thought-out good ideas, but only allows the quick implementation of mediocre ideas. A hyper-competitive environment can also discourage collaboration, which often can be crucial to “solve the hard problems”.
And the article mentions that this environment boosts employee retention, which I find extremely interesting. I wonder if the constant competition can keeps triggering a sense of “winning” and “accomplishment” in a perhaps seemingly mundane job.

- Comment on Hi Larry! 2 weeks ago:
It feels very strange to me that any serious citation counter would index ResearchGate, which AFAIK don’t have any check before publishing a preprint. It is basically a more reputable xivra.
But then again citation count, or “impact factor”, are in general quite bad to determine the quality of one’s research, and often can be easily manipulated, simply by producing more mediocre papers.

- Comment on How to check whether a particular url is safe or not ? 2 months ago:
In general only click on a link if you trust the domain. A URL usually looks like this: first.second.third…
And be very careful, only the second and the thrid word between dots count.
For example: suspicious.google.com is in general fine, since the second and third word is google.com . However, lemmy.legit-lemmy.world is unsafe, because the second and thrid word are legit-lemmy.world, but not lemmy.world.
There are ways to smuggle unsafe asset under legit URL, usually by uploading them on google drive, github etc. The good rule of thumb is to never run anything on your computer unless you are absolutely sure it comes from trusted source, like official website.

One of my colleague like to have roasted potato with vegan mayo. So he is having potatoes cooked in oil together with potatos emulsified with oil.

I want to point out that macaroni and tortilla chip are not even topologically equivalent. Hence, OP’s statement is obviously ridiculous.
- Comment on Can I self host a VPN that sneakies through the China firewall? 4 months ago:
What brand of VPN do you use to bypass it, many of my friends are there quite frequently, none of them have a mainstream solution for it.
- Comment on Can I self host a VPN that sneakies through the China firewall? 4 months ago:
Last time I was there, express do not work, and I heard proton also does not work. However, my mobile carrier by default routes all roaming traffic through UK, so that did work.
- Comment on Can I self host a VPN that sneakies through the China firewall? 4 months ago:
China blocks most IPs from foreign cloud providers like AWS or Digital Ocean. And if I am not mistaken, they can also block some VPN protocols, but I am not sure which exactly.

- Comment on DeepSeek’s rise shows why China’s top AI talent is skipping Silicon Valley. 6 months ago:
I have recently applied in Europe, U.S., and China for a relatively advanced computer scientist position. The China employer gives me an offer immediately, with almost the same salary as Europe and U.S. in Beijing. Plus the China position promised me a clear path of promotion, which is not in the case for my Europe and U.S. offers.
My current position in Europe is in a famously well-paying institution, but my salary is only minorly higher than China, not to mention all the crap I need to go through moving to Europe.
The Chinese government is investing a crap ton of money and resource into computing, I cannot imagine many other people will make the choice I did, especially when they spent most of their lives in China.
