If you are paid above average, it will be harder and harder to get big raises...

So finding a new job that will pay 20% more is probably unlikely...

The question is do you like the people you work with, do you have fun at work?

If yes, try getting other benefits, like going often on paid training/conferences to improve yourself, maybe company paid MBA or my favorite: working from home - for me this and my team is what keeps me from early retirement...

If you don't like it anymore, find another job, but the grass is not always greener on the other side...

The main reason Android has more malware than other kinds of Linux is because Android is extremely popular. Malware writers just target the systems with the most users so they can have the biggest impact.
It's very wordy and takes a lot of reading, but he does have a pretty solid point. 1) He is talking about enterprise computing, and makes that clear with:
"
Up until now Intel has held a dominant monopoly over Enterprise computing for many years, successfully fending off all challengers to their supremacy in the Enterprise computing space. This dominance is ending this year and the market sees it coming.
"
So integrated graphics like you mention is irrelevant.

Then at the end he lists why he thinks that with links:
Softbank bought ARM and funded NVIDIA, who announced an ARM & NVIDIA integrated enterprise computing product. IBM is supporting NVIDIA with a POWER and NVIDIA integrated enterprise computing product, and AMD is supporting NVIDIA in Ryzen by providing lots of PCIe bandwidth to the graphics card to support compute tasks.
> it turns off the better class of potential hires

Definitely. Hearing such stories, even if Amazon came calling tomorrow to recruit me, I'd stay away. No one wants their former employer holding a veto over future employment.

> but it kills me when I see tearing and flickering in X11 windows

Honestly don't think this will ever be solved in the open source world. It rarely even gets solved in the commercial world unless there is an internal design team involved who have enough power to force the dev team to solve these things. Win 10 for example has some silky smooth transitions but then you resize an explorer window and it flickers black.

So many people don't even seem to notice it but for some of us it's nails on a chalkboard.
I've never really understood OS:es. Why are so many people creating them, yet so few have any success? I've must have seen a dozen OS:es over the past two years on HN, most developed by people having no confidence in calling it a serious effort.

Why care about OS:es when there is no room for anyone on that level of abstraction apart from a handful developers at MS, Apple and Google?
Was the Rise of ISIS Inevitable?
In addition to your points, with which I agree, it also depends a lot on team culture. If you do your best to hire responsible adults and then treat your employees like adults most of them act like adults. When there is a healthy team culture of shared responsibility people who aren't pulling their weight tend to stick out.

The best way to avoid people gaming the system is to hire honest, hard working people who don't want to game the system. Then get out of the way and let them work.
I would imagine that since groups like ISIS aren't running their own cell networks, it would be very easy for government groups to locate anyone using those networks. Satellite phones can be just as easy to find too. The only way to really hide is just blend in with the normal cell noise of a city, use encrypted messaging, and hope no one is connecting the metadata dots to find you.
That's exactly what it is; Amazon has its fingers in so many pots that it can claim anything is related to their area of business. In a sane world, this sort of consideration would be strictly confined to what the employee actually worked on for the company, not what the company broadly works on.
With adequate choice in ISPs, you would be able to force them to compete in those areas by rewarding those that do with your business.

Well, there's a common condition called subclinical hypothyroidism which may be asymptomatic and harmless, or it may indicate thyroid disease and be accompanied by various non-specific symptoms. It's defined by slightly elevated TSH but normal T4 test results. Anybody with that condition would not be helped by what you are proposing.

In general, it seems to me that you will get some false negatives when using a less sensitive test result to qualify a more sensitive test result.

"Last year, an attempt was made to pass legislation that would have banned non-compete agreements in Washington state, but the bill stalled after business groups, including the Washington Technology Industry Association and the Association of Washington Business, opposed the bill."

I have to agreee with you. How many look at the current situation and compare to a realistic best case?

If wayland were adopted as fast possible without breaking a bunch of things for people how long would it take? Much longer than it is now, or just slightly longer?

Even if every body wanted could we have gotten this done in 5 years without breaking a ton of stuff?
>> A very workable and easy to understand formula early in your career is specialize in two things; you don't have to be better at X and better at Y than everyone you meet, you have to be "better at X than anyone who is better at Y" and "better at Y than anyone who is better at X." This is very, very achievable, regardless of how highly competent your local set of peers is.

Scott Adams says something similar:

If you want an average successful life, it doesn’t take much planning. Just stay out of trouble, go to school, and apply for jobs you might like. But if you want something extraordinary, you have two paths:

1. Become the best at one specific thing.
2. Become very good (top 25%) at two or more things.

The first strategy is difficult to the point of near impossibility. Few people will ever play in the NBA or make a platinum album. I don’t recommend anyone even try.

The second strategy is fairly easy. Everyone has at least a few areas in which they could be in the top 25% with some effort. In my case, I can draw better than most people, but I’m hardly an artist. And I’m not any funnier than the average standup comedian who never makes it big, but I’m funnier than most people. The magic is that few people can draw well and write jokes. It’s the combination of the two that makes what I do so rare.

Ask HN: How do you capture/keep your ideas?
I'm thinking of tackling these two problems:

(1) Ideas happen anywhere, anytime (running, in the shower, driving, etc). How to capture these ideas before they vanish?

(2) I use notebooks, but once I write down an idea chances are that I will never see it again. I have a box full of notebooks collecting dust.

I want to know how do you capture/keep your ideas (notebook, an app, eidetic memory, napkins, mails to yourself), what do you like/dislike about your current way, and what have you tried and didn't work/stick.
This is precisely why socialism is a bad idea. Bad people will always get elected eventually. The solution to this problem is not to hand more control of the nation's capital to a nice pretty centralized target for evil/imcompetent people.
You don't think they benefited developmentally from having grown up in the upper classes?

I don't have much material wealth, but I don't think that makes me the same as someone who never did and doesn't know how they ever could.
They have these in Bath, where I live, but the issue is that they 'zone' an area and then shift the problem out of that zone into neighboring zones. Also residents parking usually only applies a restriction Mon-Sat 8:00-18:00.

I think we need to be more radical and apply zones across the whole of the city and apply restrictions 24/7. Discounts for a zone would apply if resident, no off road parking, and city car (no diesel/small).

Commuters would only be allowed permits if city car. Nottingham also brought in Workplace parking permits.

Cities have the infrastructure in place (good public transport combined with park and ride) to encourage people to leave their cars at the edge of cities. Residents within cities should not be driving to work within the city. Neither should parents be dropping kids off by car.

Naturally there are always people that need cars. Even Copenhagen cannot get below 9% car usage despite 62% of people cycling.
If you think of an OS as solely something that sits on your desktop, then sure, but this is fairly myopic (and defeatist). There are lots of small, proprietary and often embedded operating systems that rely on the same principles established by present and past OS.

Writing operating systems is also a great way/introduction to work on operating systems, and it's a fairly distinct area of development. It's hard to get day-to-day overlap if you're working on things that don't have the constraints and operating system does.

>I can't find any references regarding Antarctica having the highest land elevation; any pointers?

Wikipedia says Antarctica "has the highest average elevation of all the continents", but right now a lot of it is ice. East Antarctica is supposed to be covered with so much ice that a large majority of the land has been compressed below sea level(CTRL+F the wikipedia article for 'isostatic rebound' and view the pictures).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctica
It looks like they gzip the file over the wire and then work with it uncompressed. That's probably a reasonable choice given they use only 30,000 passwords.

It makes very little sense to me that their sliding window does not appear to contain previous holidays. I'm not expert but I'm pretty sure holidays are a seasonal trend, and it would benefit them to train their models on previous holidays as opposed to the 3 months before a holiday, right?
Agree. But then when the prototype becomes the product is when things really get bad.
I don't think it's so much the sunk costs that matter. It's the dividend you get back every day from that investment which keeps you hooked. That's what you don't want to lose.

9!*9! is just little over 131 billion dashboards. checking correctnes (no number is repeated in row or column) is as simple as counting a sum in all boxes, rows and columns.

Generation of all possible boards is little more complex but I can hardly see how it could take "eons" - with proper implementation (Apache Spark :P ) and reasonably powerful hardware (1000 CPU core cluster, ha! ha! ha!) it should run under 1 day and take just little over 13 TB of disk/RAM space :).

That's not really constant time is it? Constant time implies that the time taken to solve the problem is not a function of the input size (input in this case being the sudoku board). For a board size of 9x9 it's O(9!x9!).

As an American conservative I would think I'm somewhat familiar with it. I'd love to pay good teachers more. I'd love to fire the bad ones.

Imagine the horror of suggesting to a state teacher's union that someone there 10 years should make more money than someone there for 15.

On that note, I can recommend the "GrabSE Front End Guide" at https://github.com/grab/front-end-guide , based on Sacha Greif's "A Study Plan to Cure Javascript Fatigue" article at https://medium.freecodecamp.com/a-study-plan-to-cure-javascr... .

I also have a more specifically-targeted list of links for React, Redux, and related topics like ES6, functional programming, and Webpack, at https://github.com/markerikson/react-redux-links . Specifically intended to be a great starting point for anyone trying to learn the ecosystem, as well as a solid source of good info on more advanced topics. The front page of my list has a "best-of / getting started" subset of links, and then the rest of the repo is grouped by topic.
Yarp! That's what our coworking allowance is for. I've been a member of a local coworking space for longer than I've worked at Automattic, and always got value out of it. But there's many coworkers that don't get value from it -- so no need for them to pay for / expense it.

But your argument is just the extreme. Everybody always wants more spending, but they always want it so more stuff is done for them.

Problem with money is that it represents economic activity. If the government spends more you need to work more (with borrowing becomes slightly more complex, working more now, or working even more in the future).

And when it comes to that, your logic would change as well. Would you work (under a bad boss, etc ... ie. work, as in actual work, whatever it takes) to improve those schools ?

For a very large majority the answer is no.

I'm pessimistic about both arrangements.

I don't favor monopolies but, because I live in Los Angeles, I see that a city can act like a sluggish, greedy monopoly, too.

Here, the city owns the roads and electrical grid, and it's doing a mediocre or poor job of maintenance. We don't, for example, have "state of the art high throughput roads." Many of the roads are crumbling and need complete replacement. There's a huge backlog.

There's also a multi-year backlog of decaying wooden power poles which need to be replaced because they're in danger of coming down during a windstorm.

And, when people go to the expense of having solar panels installed on their homes, they have to wait many months for the city to come out and inspect and give permission to connect to the grid.

The city does not have a good handle on the problems. (Don't get me started about the leaky water mains.) City ownership of infrastructure is no guarantee of good service and value for money either.

And of course, as you say, with monopolies, we're screwed too. I don't see any easy answer.
The joke isn't "works best in IE" the joke is "Safari is the default browser that ships with the OS, few people get a better browser, and even though it's a piece of shit you have to continue supporting it."

>I find Safari superior to every other browser on any platform in every possible metric except for dev tools

I could remove nearly 15% of my CSS if I stopped supporting Safari at work and I wouldn't need a hundred different quirky workarounds to make the sites look even remotely how they're supposed to look. It fights me every inch of the way and then has some of the worst dev tools for debugging where any issues are.

I'd rather support IE8 for eternity if it means I never have to write another `@media screen and (min-color-index:0) and(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0) {}` in my CSS again.
An interesting aspect that gets sidelined in a discussion involving flexible hours is the undeniable observation that the nature of work requires 'sprints'. Not in the agile context but as in physical running context. Software development happens in bursts trying to fit it into the assembly line model of fixed working hours and repetitive tasks just shows a gross misunderstanding of how things get built in the software world.
I work out of a coffee shop every morning and come into the office around lunch time. It helps break up my day into getting serious work done and things that require communications.

As for being fair to the coffee shop, it's just become a way of life recently. If you don't want people working from your shop, don't offer wifi. The shop I'd been going to for over a year recently stopped offering wifi so I started going to a more worker friendly shop.
