I don't think so, or at least it doesn't feel like it. Typescript's type inference is so good that you only need types maybe 15% of the time. It also has shortcuts like constructor property initializers and support for async even when targeting ES5.

I would bet money that you actually write less code with Typescript than regular javascript because of all the streamlining and shortcuts. And with the type inference you almost get static typing for free.

I hear this argument come up frequently against TS and all I can say is I'm fairly sure it's from people that haven't used it.

I don't understand what they mean by "Unfortunately, an undocumented approach to mentioning users — <@username> — no longer functions. Please reference with the user ID format (<@U123>) instead".

Surely they're not saying slack users need to manually type opaque numeric identifiers to properly mention other users? That would be ridiculous.
My preferred open source tool is Multi PuTTY Manager which has nice coupling to WinSCP. Otherwise I use SecureCRT though I imagine XShell is just as good at that level.

The MingKwai does sound similar to the Wubi (五笔 ⸺ 5 strokes) method. You type the individual components of a character or word, and any ambiguity is resolved by selecting from a short list.

For example, 比如 (= "for example") is typed "xxvk", where "x" → 匕, "v" → 女, "k" → 口. 名字 (= "name") is typed "qkpb", where "q" → 夕, "k" → 口, "p" → 宀， "b" → 子.

Of course most keys can stand for several characters (or components), and it can be hard to tell which one to use (for me), but the amount of ambiguity is surprisingly small.
None of that, nor the good that they have done, negates the fact that distributions can fuck up too. And regardless of whether OpenSSL had a plethora of bugs from upstream, this one wasn't one of them. It was only in Debian, because of changes the project had made. Just because it's packaged in Debian by Debian maintainers doesn't mean you're immune to these kind of issues. They're arguably less likely but you'd need to do a comprehensive study of all packages in the repo to get to some usable statistic.

If you don't like the job, DONT APPLY.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with seeking people who voluntarily wish to work those hours.

It is in fact much better than implicitly expecting long working hours like many jobs while not being upfront about it - that can trap people into a deal they did not fully understand. This is the opposite.

It may be unsustainable for the vast majority of people (me included) - so what? I don't go around crying about coal miners jobs because it would be unsustainable for my physical frame, I just choose not to apply.

I genuinely don't understand the criticism. You don't find or enjoy working 70-90 hours healthy? That's your view and you likely shouldn't apply for this position.

Even assuming this is crazy, what's wrong with crazy people recruiting similarly minded crazy people? It's most obviously not a fit for anyone who wants to work 40 hours or wants to see their kids or whatever, but for those, there are plenty of other jobs. I just find it crazy that because of your personal views on work-life-balance, you expect Ng to have to change his desires for you. That seems wrong to me imho.
Thanks for explaining your reasoning.

I think where you and DannyBee differ is with:

"permissions granted under LICENSE may not be unilaterally withdrawn except for reasons specified in that document itself"

where DannyBee is not taking the patent licence to be a permission that can be implicitly granted under LICENCE when there is a separate explicit PATENTS grant.

He states in the followup comment "No license can be implied if there is an explicit license." which I'm guessing you would say only applies if the explicit licence is within or allowed for by LICENCE.

Do you think that is that a fair representation of your points of view?
It does. We just added it. https://github.com/chrissimpkins/codeface/pull/163
I use Chrome profiles heavily, so I am very happy Firefox is exploring this feature. When doing consulting, I like to keep different client activities isolated to their own profile, so I have less things to juggle if they use the same cloud service (AWS, G Suite, Jira, etc).

One limitation I currently see to that workflow (that works better for me in Chrome) is that this appears to all reside under a single Firefox Account which essentially creates master set of data to Sync. I would like to be able to setup Containers to be pegged to different Firefox Accounts (or not at all).

Yes, Conda [0] is a package manager designed by Continuum Analytics (now Anaconda, Inc.) to support their Anaconda Distribution [1]. The distribution is free, and the Conda client is open source. However, Anaconda sells several enterprise products, including an on-premise Conda server ("Anaconda Repository").

In general, Conda does more package verification than pip, and the packages in the Anaconda distribution are more thoroughly vetted than PyPi. Conda-Forge [2] provides an escape hatch for less-vetted community code.

They have a fee of 5%. Let's assume they have a price/earnings ratio of 20, that means they expect people to spend something like $450m/year on Patreon.

According to Wikipedia they are at around $150m/year already. I think it is totally feasible that they could increase that to $450m/year and not have to increase their 5% fee.

Seems like a reasonable valuation to me.
I LOVE this feature, but it has only one problem: when I'm in a container and I press Ctrl+T (new tab), the new tab opens in the default container. This doesn't make sense, I want it to stay in the same container.

This was also discussed in the issue tracker, in a now closed issue, in which the intuitive behaviour (staying in the same container) was proposed, but got sidetracked and in the end implemented something totally different.

So if anyone from Firefox is listening here: please PLEASE consider implementing Ctrl+T in the same container :)

I read this more than 20 years ago, so the "EM" part might be off, but the article revolved around the fact that there was an abnormally high number of former Washington embassy employees from certain time period that died of blood cancer. The cause was stated to be some kind of external irradiation.
In that case, loop fusion may be even more efficient - makes better use of CPU caches. Depends on the logic I suppose.
Don't they use the latest and greatest tech that has been made spaceworthy? It's not just a matter of whether it's been tested a lot. Off-the-shelf electronics just won't work for these things, because they're not sufficiently hardened against radiation. From what I can dig up, it looks like Cassini uses 20-30MHz 16-bit CPUs, which is really not bad at all for a probe whose design started around the early 1990s.
First of all, the two things you listed are clearly sexist behaviors, even in isolation. Treating women differently than men, whether it's more harshly or with "kid gloves" is sexist behavior. Putting a pinup on the wall of your office is pretty inappropriate for a professional work environment and the reason it was allowed to stand is most likely sexism.

But again, it only takes one workplace, one manager that doesn't treat women more harshly and doesn't allow pinups or have these other sexist behaviors to foil the entire sexist system, because that one employer would get all of these great women who are just as productive for a lower price and would take over their market. It only takes two such employers in a market who are competing for those women to get women up to income parity with men.

I'm not making any arguments whatsoever about sexism in the workplace. I'm only talking about the wage gap. "The system" having these latent sexist rules and behaviors in place almost certainly drives women away. But that's a different problem than whether women engineers make the same amount of money as men for the same work.

Cognition Builders' particular practices seem pretty obnoxious but behavioral analysis conditioning can be very useful in general. For example, I've used profanity my who life. My wife didn't and it genuinely offended her more genteel sensibilities. I decided I wanted to make the change but I utterly failed for like two years of using just hope and willpower. Then we instituted a "swear jar" whose proceeds would be used to fund something distasteful to me like the Trump campaign. Within a couple months I was rid of the profanity. It's been like two years since we retired the jar and I haven't reverted. It was literally a life changing intervention.

When I started reading that article I was excited because I thought it was going to describe some cool, inspiring uses of the techniques to the much serious problems around dysfunctional family dynamics. Unfortunately Cognition Builders seem laughably Black-Mirror-esque. Another thing my wife and have wished for was a recording of our conversations for when we disagree about what was actually said in past conversations. I wonder if Cognition Builders could have a more passive offering where you could ask on demand things like "what did we agree to last week when we were talking about so and so..." It would be more like a life logging perfect AI for you to use as you see fit for things like reflection or accountability.

All I can see are the economics of it. If he was paying his engineers $600,000 / yr in compensation for all the overtime they're working, I would have no trouble with the arrangement.

However, software engineers rarely get any form of compensation for extra hours work outside of small vanity bonuses. This is just someone looking to take advantage of the fact they can get free labor out of their employees by "encouraging" them to work an extra 30 to 40 hours a week.

Pairing "all-hands" with "stand-up" rules out "Agile" for every department larger than five or six people.

A union rule could limit the number of people that can participate in a "stand-up meeting" to seven, and limit the duration to twenty minutes.

That way, when management tries to pack 20+ people around the walls of a corner office to waste 45 minutes every day, I could complain to my union rep instead of telling said management "I have some concerns about the daily stand-up meeting" and getting fired for it.
That's the thing, it's feels impossible to generalize since this can get pretty arbitrary. The size of the data, how sorted the data already is, what you're processing, etc.

I don't understand why is it a "discrimination". Yes, even 50 hour week severely limits family time; so what? Just do not apply then, especially since they are totally upfront about the desired working hours. It is not as if you do not have choice - you are already employed, and if you were to switch jobs - there are plenty of places available with sustainable work-life balance.
Some people are willing to put in actual effort and time in the work (and get compensated for it accordingly); removing the 70+ hour week part of the job would be the very same "discrimination" against them.

I didn't realize how screwed up things have become with parenting until my son went into school recently. It's a different universe from the 80s and 90s.

I recently almost lost my drink when I had to sit through some power-mom yak on about her 12 yo daughter's crappy behavior and inability to focus -- she now has an ADHD diagnosis and medication.

Her daughter is a successful competitive swimmer who trains 4 days a week, is a talented musician in two different regional orchestras, has a B+ average and runs cross country.

People are nuts. That kid needs sleep, not amphetamine derivatives. There are many like her. My son has kindergarten classmates in 3-5 structured activities.

> So basically, the FUD helped individuals/trolls/companies who want to wield software patents as a weapon; to the detriment of the wider community

This is just beyond ridiculous to characterize the FB patents addition as some sort of social good needed in the battle against patent litigation, like they are doing everyone a favour. The patents addition in the license is there to protect FB's interests. Words that specifically benefit the interests of a megacorp do not belong in an open source license meant to be used by everyone and anyone. It sets a terrible precedent that can be used to justify a whole range of different companies adding their own clauses, each of which that can be plausibly argued for. And all of that requires other companies to conduct legal counsel, altering which companies would be adopting WordPress - imposing a kind of decision making process and barrier that few if any in WP would or should desire. And it's not even worth it considering there are equally attractive alternatives out there.
