> It seems so unbelievable to me that there are enough people that are a) John Deere equipment owners/renters and b) capable of debugging and patching issues in a C++ codebase for these stories to keep appearing.

There doesn't have to be any overlap between these groups of people. The issue here seems to be that some mechanical parts that are easily replaced, are not accepted by the controlling computer, unless it is authorized using specific administration software. Basically, ink cartridge lock-in, but for tractors.

To circumvent the restrictions, no farmer has to know C++, they only need a pirated version of the software to integrate the replacement parts into the system. So what the farmers want is not the ability to arbitrarily modify the software running on their equipment, but simply a way to do purely mechanical repairs on their own.
Just attach liability to a sale taking place.

I use Semantic UI in production on https://partsbox.io/ and can list some upsides and downsides.

On the positive side:

* very complete, with good form styling, and lots of widgets you will use often, which is especially important for larger apps,

* the default theme is mature and has good usability, without the crazy "oh, how flat and invisible our UI is!" look.

* the class naming plays well with React (I use ClojureScript and Rum) and looks good in your code,

On the negative side:

* the CSS is huge and there is little you can do to trim it down,

* the JavaScript code is not Google Closure-ready, so it's a drag compared to my ClojureScript codebase: large and unwieldy,

* there is a jQuery dependency, so I have to pull that in, too,

* the build system is… well, strange, let's put it that way. I'm used to typing "make" and getting things built, while this thing here insists on a) painting pretty pictures in the console window, b) crapping node_modules in a directory up from the one I'm building in, c) requires interactive feedback. I still haven't found a way to automatically build Semantic UI from a zip/tarball, and others seem to struggle with it, too.

Overall, I'm happy with the choice and it has been serving me well.

I really should have said "is being eroded by DMCA"
This is a discussion that I've occasionally tried to raise with colleagues. I usually find myself in a pretty isolated position, but anyway..

My viewpoint is, roughly:

1) DI, as described in the GoF book is a great pattern. You compose objects by passing other objects to its constructor as needed. These are the stored in final fields for the lifetime of the parent object. The pattern gives a lot of flexibility and handles a lot of use cases which it may otherwise be tempting to handle using the inferior concept of inheritance. It's simple, it's typesafe, it's easy to debug.

2) DI, as implemented by virtually any DI framework, is the Devil. Most DI frameworks is little more than a big dictionary mapping interface types (or magic strings) to implementation classes, along with some black-box magic to make it work (and bloat your stacktraces). It saves you the effort of calling constructors explicitly but any gains are lost as soon as you need to debug stuff. It shares a lot of traits with that other big dictionary where you can dump stuff for convenience: the global scope. It also has the same backdraws.

But anyway, this is a minority position so there is a large chance that I'm dead wrong and a small chance that history will prove me right.

No, he criticizes GLSL and HLSL for extending C or C++ in an ad-hoc way which make them buggy and unreliable (myriad of small differences between implementations).

"The need for ad hoc language extension also complicates compiler implementations: current compilers either need to reinvent a complete C-like parser and compiler from scratch [28] or hack an existing frontend such as GCC or Clang. Both approaches are error prone: [...]"

Home Depot has this down cold. Their website will tell me if an item is at my local store, how many, how many are at the next 5 closest stores, and I can click a link to have which aisle and bin the product is in at my local store texted to my cellphone they have on file.

When I check out in store, my receipt is automatically emailed to me. If I want, I can make the purchase from their website and the product is waiting for me at customer service.

It's ridiculously good for a physical retail experience.

> millions of which will last a century with proper care

I strongly doubt that. Electronics are not designed to last that long; components age. Also, planned obsolescence is king these days.
The concept of 'semantic classnames', even if propagated by w3.org has caused as much grief as the concept of 'separation of concerns' between HTML & CSS fad. The reason we need semantics in HTML is to make the markup accessible for screen-readers, and no screenreader considers the class name of an element when reading it out. What we instead need are semantic tags like article, section etc. and aria tags like role.

CSS classnames are purely for the developer's benefit. Not the user's. And as developers, forcing ourselves to find semantic meaning for every element we write leads us to component-oriented CSS like BEM. Which is a fine thing, but we can also use purely visual classes - like `bg-red bold border-solid` if it helps (and it does. check out tachyons.io)

The class names of elements in Google's homepage for example reads like 'tsf-p', `oq`, `gsb` etc. I suspect these are machine generated. Same with Facebook. One of the best libraries to do this currently is styled-components (https://github.com/styled-components/styled-components).

Consider reading http://nicolasgallagher.com/about-html-semantics-front-end-a..., http://mrmrs.io/writing/2016/03/24/scalable-css/, and http://johnpolacek.com/2016/06/17/atomic-css-movement/ for reasoned perspectives.
This is a great comment. Totally agree.

Oh man, this one. How hard is "I don't know?" You're not supposed to have the entirety of computer science and software engineering knowledge jammed into your head. Let's talk about what you know and what you don't and figure out whether you're a good fit.

We hire lots of people without direct experience in what we do because they seem great to work with and we think they'll learn quickly. Just please don't try to bullshit; it doesn't usually work.
It's the collapse of modern civilization that I worry about.
Myth or not, in 1992 on my hometown it was only possible to get legal OS/2 2.0 copies when buying a PS2.

Only one IBM dealer was selling PS2 with them.

OS/2 2.0 wasn't nowhere else to be found and I didn't knew anyone to get me a pirate copy of OS/2 2.0 just to try it out on a PC clone.

So regardless of you calling me a liar, in 1992 on a small Portuguese town, getting OS/2 2.0 on a legal way, required buying a PS2 with it bundled at the local IBM dealer.

And for what I could remeber it was pretty much like that across the country until OS/2 Warp got released.
You address two different issues here competition and users.

In the case of users you have no right after sale to feel a right to control how your users make use of your product. Just because software and contracts give you two venues to potentially do so doesn't mean it would be rational to allow you to. The world is 99.99% users.

On the second point, competition has always quite legally taken apart the competitors products to see how they tick. If you have something truly innovative you can file a patent, if not then you have nothing that deserves protection.

Can confirm. My work life has been smooth and fairly boring, and I have piss-poor autobiographical memory anyway, so I pretty much have to make those up to have anything worth telling. Maybe start from some half-remembered kernel of truth, but it's all BS from there, because it's all I've got. Have to rehearse them so I'm not making shit up on the fly--too much risk of tripping up, or making it too flashy, or accidentally saying something in a way that makes it seem like I'm shifting blame, or taking credit I shouldn't, or anything like that.

Especially the "tell us about a time you had a conflict with someone" question. Ugh. I guess I just need to seek out some assholes to work with because I've got a big fat nothing to talk about on that one. I ought to start writing down the crap I make up for it so I don't have to do it again every time I interview.

It is not a tool problem. Programming tools always address two problems: coding performance and coding quality. But the design, the architecture is not something that could be fixed by a tool. Frameworks may add or remove some constraints, but there's always enough space for the side effects of human creativity. People always break or misuse the tools, creating the balls of mud. It's not a problem with these tools, it's a problem with organization of development process, with competencies of decision makers, with inadequate constraints and unclear requirements. It's easy to blame the tool, throw away the ball of mud and start from scratch with fancy new tech. But in the end you'll get the same ball of mud, because you have ignored the root causes.

I believe the adaptability of humans is greatly exaggerated, mostly thanks to our hubris. We believe we will be able to use our intelligence to figure a way out of pretty much any problem. However, the fact of the matter is that our species has never been through any extinction-level events that would truly test our adaptability. Sure, we can adapt to localized or short-term problems extremely well, but how would we fare in an event the level of, say, the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event?
Part of what makes TempleOS so powerful with so little code is that everything fits together, so you can make a lot of assumptions. I don't know the details, but I bet there are lots of design choices that work well, or are able to implement concisely specifically because of the resolution assumption.

Really tightly integrated designs eventually get to the point where there's almost nothing to change... No word could be swapped, no color could be different, because the each design choice relies on the last. Many designers use that as a measure of when something is ready. When you really apply iterative design practices, you add and take away and add and take away, and you eventually end up with an extremely lightweight design that is very strong, but where every piece of the whole is extremely important. Apple strives for this.

I'm not saying TempleOS is there, but that's the kind of design project it is, and that's where it's headed. That's what makes it "holy"... It's not perfect but it's pointed at perfection and it aims to get there. Linus, in contrast, doesn't care if Linux is perfect. He wants to make something that's useful and is willing to make a mess if it helps people get their work done.
This is another welcome step on our journey between psychology and neuroscience.
I don't say this often, but this observation is pure garbage. People who live in terror of "big brother" aren't in terror because they may be offered an unwanted credit card, or because it's their precious privacy that they value. They're in terror because their government wants to silence them and kill them. Maybe for who they associate with, their religious belief, sexual orientation or their political beliefs.

On the topic of Big Brother, there was a law passed called The Patriot Act that required stringent KYC regulations.. Meaning financial institutions are required to ask these stupid questions and keep tabs on you. The government is forcing companies to keep tabs on you, along with telecom and other industries - so they can siphon this data..

But whatever. Stupid conspiracy theorists. Probably dumb libertarians or something.

How are you going to charge those devices reliably and consistently? What knowledge-bases will you be able to connect to with no Internet?

Our technology stack is like a house of cards. Smartphones are at the top. There's no way they will be of any use in the event that the foundation and the walls collapse.
"European Jewish culture" is not a technology. It doesn't take a huge population base for a group of people to remember their roots and culture and save a lot of it. But most people are not technologists. Sure, there's a few smart people in a million, but that's not enough to maintain things: medical technology, transportation technology, computer technology, etc.

Want a historical example? Look at the fall of the Roman Empire (and also older empires before them). They knew how to make concrete, huge buildings, aquaducts, plumbing, etc. It was all lost when the society collapsed, and that didn't involve killing off most of them, only having them give up on it and move away, and give up on the idea of specialization of labor. It took 1000 years or more to regain the level of technology they had, and really they never did figure out how to make concrete that good until modern times.

It's funny, because many of my professors already do write what amounts to a small textbook, in the form of notes/slides. These are then freely available online. By saving, editing, and expanding on these notes over the course of a few years, I'm sure most could have a fairly authoritative textbook for their course.
Counterexample: I did not apply to, nor interview for, my current gig, and I'm not cheating by working for myself.

And I bet almost everyone reading this has worked with at least one person they think shouldn't have survived the interview, and that person was making a boatload because they convinced the boss they're brilliant. Meanwhile 90% of their day was spent talking about how great they are, and 10% creating new bugs, and no one dared say anything because the thought of them being more "productive" was horrifying.

'It' mostly successfully matches employees to employers, but the quality of those matches may vary wildly.

Interview processes also vary wildly—you can't really say that it works without defining 'it.' Are we talking multiple technical screens that require writing code or a single fluffy buzzword-laden conversation with a C-level? Both have failure modes, but those failure modes sure are different.
When you buy software as a service you are effectively renting access to someone else's hardware wherein the software in question runs. We pay more than cost to make everything someone else's problem and we understand that the hardware belongs to someone else.

When you are talking about software running on the physical hardware that you have sold to people they have all trials and tribulations of ownership while you the creator are insisting on retaining control in order to suck more money out of their pockets.

To make the issue vastly more clear they having paid for ownership are insisting on free usage of the ALL the hardware involved including all processors and storage and insisting that the machine shouldn't deliberately disable itself unless it would be unsafe or damaging to run.

This isn't an unreasonable expectation.

> When their back is against the wall with a deadline...just throw some more beans in there, who cares how they're wired together, it's all handled by Spring!

I just came across a controller in our code that had over 50 spring injected services. Our entire code base is only like 5 years old.

The problem is that this is my first job out of college... even if I know things are messed up, I don't really have an example of an application like this that is actually done right.
> you only have to touch your stylesheets instead of manipulating both the stylesheets and HTML.

Well isn't the point here that you'd only have to modify the HTML, leaving the CSS alone for the most part?
Your arguments are valid on why constructor injection should be preferred. However, what are you talking about is the human-made decision: "Stop adding more parameters to constructor". The tool does not force you to build high-quality architecture, it is your choice based on your experience and skills. Other people who are not yet aware about the consequences may still make wrong design decisions and they'll be ok with lots of parameters.
Cool, just today I was just looking for something like sematic/bootstrap.v4 that works well with clojurescript, do you have any suggestions? Have you had any issues pulling in jquery alongside react?
Actually, to a programmer the APIs, both the CP API and the PM API, were not very similar. Somewhat is a fairer assessment. They shared a common ancestry, and some common ideas (such as the idea of sharing modes for open file handles, for starters), but they were in some respects markedly dissimilar to those of DOS+Windows.
A SegWit commitment on the left hand side causes any permutation on the right hand side to force a recalculation of the left hand side.

This is still a non-issue as a solid GPU farm can crunch the SegWit version trivially and there are ASICBOOST compatible optimizations for SegWit that have not been publicly discussed.

One should look at the R&D on ZCash's equihash to see some of the work that has gone into collision finding.
I grew up on the coast of the Great Barrier Reef in North Queensland and I can say that the current state of the reef is almost unrecognisable to what it was 20-odd years ago.

While a large part of this damage has been caused by rising sea temperatures, another large component is due to the run-off from agriculture, refineries and mining. The latter being a directly contributed by the local population.

The region is currently in a economic recession and many of the mines and refineries have either slowed or ceased operation. Anecdotally, the sentiment of the population affected by (un)employment by these industries are either unaware or ignorant towards the damage that the industries are having on this sensitive ecosystem. Instead they are consumed by how they are going to make ends meet.

In this environment, it is unthinkable to allow Adani expand their Carmichael mine to further exacerbate the situation. Add to this, that a former Adani board member is appointed to evaluate the environmental impacts of the expansion. Adani is the biggest direct threat to Australia, both environmentally and economically and they are in talks with the government to be provided with a $1 billion tax-payer funded railway line. Adani and the Carmichael mine expansion are rifled with corruption.

The issue of the reef and climate-change in general is a fairly untouched issue in Australian politics. I'm not sure that we are going to get anywhere without foreign intervention.

If you are interested, I do urge you to read some material on Adani and the Carmichael coal mine expansion and perhaps donate to a "StopAdani" cause.

Wish us luck.

They're not really comparable, rail offers far higher passenger capacities and multiple stops are much more practical.

While you can make a multiple stage detachable gondola, every detach point/stage is adding significantly more points of failure and complexity. There is a reason you don't see more than ~3-4 stages and that's it.

They are also very maintenance intensive and not all that reliable.
There are some excellent scientists and programs attempting to improve water quality (particularly catchments that flow into the reef) and the crown of thorns starfish.

Unfortunately these are badly underfunded, not coordinated at a national level as they should be, and do not address the biggest threat - climate change. The reef is doomed unless something is done about CO2 emissions. It's probably already too late.

The loss of the GBR will see a collapse of tourism industries, and entire ecosystems will die off. There are going to be huge impacts in the next 15-20 years to come out of this.

A lot of low lying countries in the pacific will get the triple whammy of increased cyclone activity, rising sea levels and a loss of reefs and the fish populations that they subsist on. There are huge humanitarian disasters ahead.
