Ask HN: What do you think of performance appraisal at your workplace?
What does the process looks like? What are the primary inputs? Do you use any tool to capture peer reviews?

What's your take on the whole process?
Yes, technically it's TLS, not SSL.

TLS, however, is an "evolution" of SSL and many, many people still use this nomenclature. It doesn't "reek of amateur hour and shallow knowledge", it's just a holdover from the past.

We all know and understand what others are referring to when they say "SSL". It's like when I tell the girlfriend I'm going to go on a "bike ride". She understands that I mean I'm going for a ride on my Harley, a motorcycle, and not an actual bicycle.

Or last weekend, when a friend asked me, "Hey, could you move your car so <other person> can get out?". While I could have stood there arguing with him or correcting him (since my car was actually at home, in my driveway), I instead went out and moved my truck so that the other guest could leave.

This excessive, unwarranted pedantry is annoying as hell. You may be "technically correct" but you make everyone around you dislike you.

What do you think, that the chinese govt purposefully makes their peoples lives miserable? They are doing exactly what they think is necessary to stay in power, whether that is a good thing or not is another question. Beating husbands act out of frustration or other problems but not because they fear losing power, And get a kick out of it.

Chinese everyday life is as free or unfree as it is here. It's funny how average Joe is so proud of living in a free country when all his life he is working his ass off to pay the bills never going anywhere, never being the heroic activist changing anything.

That handful of people who are like that definitely are better off here than in China, but the general public in China is just as happy with life as long as they get their steady income, a shiny iPhone and whatever the Chinese clone of Netflix is. And They certainly don't care that WhatsApp or some other app/website with zero market penetration in China is blocked over there.
Yes, I wasn't trying to say KeepassXC can't in some way also do most of these things. But the experience is very different.

Bitwarden is basically identical across all the platforms. KeepassXC is not, since it's totally different apps for mobile, etc.
In the same vein of logic, cash causes death, gold causes death, diamonds cause death, etc.
4-5 years isn't that long, any more. The latest macOS only requires a 2009/2010 Mac, which is 8-9 years old now.
What if we could knock the missile off course instead of just shooting it down?

Like knock it into space, have it explode out there. Is that possible?
My Mac Pro tower from 2008 is still going as my main desktop, not a single fan or hardware issue. iPhone 6S after a new battery, feels like a brand new device. I've had every iPhone since the first one, and decided to just stop buying new phones every year or two. I'll run this into the ground until it stops working. Beyond email , text messaging, and instagram for business. It doesn't serve much other purpose that requires the latest and greatest.
That's the most succinct phrasing of the problem of security vs. users (and customers) complaining about what they perceive as the inconvenience and complexity that accompany securing digital assets.
While this is certainly troubling in terms of what it means for our fellow Chinese humans, I'm not sure it makes sense to compare this to the U.S. We have a leader who didn't receive the majority of votes. Our government blatantly disregards what people want in favor of the elite (1 example being net neutrality), we support policies that have been shown to systematically oppress non-wealthy whites ("war" on drugs), millions in our country have no affordable healthcare options, we have more gun violence per capita than any other nation that's not at war, etc. This shouldn't become a China vs America discussion. Both China and America have big things to improve on. At least in China, the quality of life for the average person is increasing. In the U.S. many people can no longer afford to buy a house, have no savings, and are at risk of losing middle-class status.

It's real question how dark these planets would ever get. With 416 planets reflecting light, the closest ones would be pretty bright all the time. Maybe even visible discs from the surface, although I'm not sure. Brighter than Venus is on Earth though, and lots of them.

You'd have to take that into account when doing your global warming models too.

They do. That communist gulag impression hn has of China is ridiculous.
If that works for you, sure. But most would seriously weigh that trade off. With another 70k / year after taxes you could retire way earlier and do whatever you want.
I will never understand why Apple gets all the "planned obsolescence!" flak, when I still know people using iPhone 4S's and 2011 iPads and iOS devices get software updates for 3-5 years. You're lucky if your Android phone gets two years of updates, and I don't there has ever been one with three.
the job thing is interesting - also it is still a free way to interact with an audience that knows to go to your page directly for new information - like a Reddit page. If Reddit let you put a picture and have a profile page.. I think a lot of stuff would move over.
It's obvious that it affects your brain while you have depression. However, I don't think it's obvious that the effects would be permanent.

Civ is a computer game. Among other ways your analogy breaks down, the designers had to make all the ideologies more or less equally viable for game balance reasons. In real life you cannot argue that autocracy and freedom of order are equally viable ideologies (and what do those things even mean in real life, they aren’t as well specified as in a game).

You’ll be working across the whole stack; web, backend services and APIs, iOS and more.

Email me at d@ca.la if this sounds like a good fit!
Xi is saying his rule is needed for China to become a superpower. A country doesn't seem so strong to me, if it depends on any one person's single man rule to become a superpower. A truly strong country does not depend on a any single man, good or bad.
Seriously??.. ROFL.. Sorry to burst your bubble there steeeeego with your pointing out of what's already obvious, but I have no need to dazzle anyone. Get a grip & get outside once in a while. Fresh air might do you well.
>And along comes the internet where anyone is entitled to say anything from a distance and not have to look into the eyes of the human being they're taking a scrap of dignity from.

That's the wonderful thing about the Internet; it's not real life! Personally, I think it's a hoot, but you have to sublimate the pain with humor. :D

That's an unnecessary and pointless shitshow waiting to happen.

People with insider info and trust cannot share that info. It would involve cutting their own throat and burning bridges. Any nice things said about the company would get pissed on as "Well, of course, you would say that because this is HN/you must be a shill/whatever." Inevitably, someone would feel the need to say something terrible so as to be edgy/honest/whatever.

There is just absolutely no good that can come of that.
Recreational GraphQL use
Of course there are many scary things happening in China as well (censorship, power consolidation, etc), but all I'm saying is it isn't productive and doesn't make sense to use this news as another reason why the USA is the best ever (or some version of that)
