Hiring H-1Bs can drive all salaries down, including US programmers working at the same desk. I'd also like to see data regarding programmer age -- do we seek young US and H-1B alike to get cheaper, younger talent?
In the field I'm in, companies that are effectively running a lot of infrastructure are comically bad at providing developer support. Like, they actively go out of their way to avoid providing documentation (that they themselves certainly have).

The reason? They do big enterprise installs and it is probably safer just to treat all their gear as black-boxes than to allow any other companies to potentially botch site integrations.

Then again, everyone else ends up just packet sniffing production networks anyways, and that's a lot safer, right?

...right?

:(
I really like the RFC.

Two questions:

- do you think it would make sense to allow the "Patches" header only in PATCH and not PUT?

- how do you feel about a generic "subscribe" mechanism that is not specific to sync but can just say "I'm interested in this topic, with this params" ? Then this could be specialized with the version+parents params to get sync. This way we get a generic HTTP standard for PUB/SUB, which is badly needed, and is a very basic primitive you can build many things on. It would be a shame to have to add one after the fact.
maybe a little overkill...

Better than pretending as if ten 100-line commits are atomic!
> Your argument would be sound except that masks are regarded as being completely safe.

Prove it. So many assertions...so little actual evidence.

And for the record, I'm not talking about silly stuff like "wearing a mask raises my CO2 level". There's a very serious debate to be had about risk compensation -- because of the over-the-top messaging about masks, a large number of people think they're personally protected when wearing them. That can make people do risky things. Howard's review skims over the issue and pretends it is settled. It is not.

It's not clear at all that masks -- and in particular, mask mandates -- have a positive net effect. The RCTs on the subject certainly do not support strong claims of effectiveness.
I just replied in a Twitter DM with the details. (A DM instead of here for reasons explained in the DM, but basically if it was a week later in time I could post about it here).
The F-35 failed because fighter jet airframes aren’t particularly relevant anymore. You can stick the same sensor systems and missiles on just about anything.

Improved stealth etc is useful, but F-35’s are only slightly better than 40+ year old jets. Thus hardly worth the price vs cheaply manufacturing a minor update of an older design.

Or as the saying goes “quantity has a quality all it’s own.”
Agree on your conclusion. Regarding the prior it's messy with local politics, warlords, NGOs, governments etc and if there was the unanimous will there would be no hunger. Food production is a solved problem.
No - I doubt any PM would write what I said. What I said is more a IC in tech saying

"Sure, what the PM asked for an laid out was X. But really, in the middle we found out the architecture didn't work as expected. So we pivoted and in doing so found more success using Y's Suggested Architecture"

Innovation and Tech is messy. More often than not, Your definition of success changes as time goes on as you get further into a project that's groundbreaking.
Google's business model is to have no customer service and have customers discard-able without notice when Google chooses. Why would a business want to do business to business with Google and actually pay them at this point? They do 'free' sort of well but they are a terrible option for dependable partner whether you pay them or not.

From the video:
> You can easily monitor the status of each message you send and know if and when it gets read

Huh? How?
I think you're right. It seems odd that Bray would emphasize the code generation point apropos of nothing. It'd be as if he decided now would be a good time to point out that Android devices are in fact Turing-complete and that the language used to program for them is not an innate part of their nature.

It could be that he is just making an observation. But I read it as a hint of things to come or possibly a gentle suggestion for others to follow. I think it would be interesting to use Google's Go for the native work, for example.
Not all of them fail, its just that people like their collaboration to be 'thin', not 'thick'. Stackoverflow is a nice example of a success story. Casual, 'thin', very effective.

People are pretty set in their ways and by forcing them to completely shift to some new platform the majority of the collaboration platforms misses the point that we don't actually want to do that. Collaboration is more about communication than it is about anything else so whenever a collaboration site is successful it usually is because it leaves people free and solves a communications issue.
On the one hand, yes, this is a terrible implementation choice.

But on the other hand, it's the Java standard library, what do you expect? Even arrays built into the language don't obey LSP.
great story. I have found the same to be true all too often, never giving up says a lot for those who make it. I will never forget after dropping out of college to chase my dreams how mad my parents were at me. When I met my first investor and told him I had dropped out to pursue this even though I had a full ride scholarship and less than a year to finish he was amazed. It was something that had never struck me as odd before.

And I will never forget after the long board meeting I had with the VC firm who eventually bought my company. The guy who had originally found me walked out of the meeting shook my hand and said the words I will never forget, at first they stung, but after a while it meant the world to me.

"Zach, you know what we like so much about you?"
what's that?, I asked
"You have too much of an ego to fail, we're in."

Sometimes having the right amount of belief in your project means that you do not even realize how dedicated you are, you make irrational decisions that seem like the only choice at the time and you sacrifice things that however insignificant they seem to you, would be a huge deal for some people.
Tis only a matter of time before laws start getting passed, ISPs are forced to monitor and people start getting cut-off/fined.

I'm not arguing for that position, but that's the way it's going. So any time soon could be sooner than you think.

As for the article, what a load of nonsense, 'hey use these instead' article is quite obviously advocating piracy, whichever way they try and spin it, disclaimer or not. The disclaimer:

All of these services should be used for legal downloads, of course

There is no sane person in the world that believes that a torrent site's primary purpose is for legal downloads.
True. If notable founders are willing to do Y-Combinator even though they could secure financing elsewhere without giving up a percentage, then there are many cases in which YC should accept (HipMunk, for example). That also speaks volumes of YC, if established entrepreneurs will come back to YC for a second time.
