This sounds like how you'd end up doing web development in the least efficient way possible. There is a ton of space for reuse, the web is dead simple and the same pattern shows up over and over and over.
This is good ! I remember coding a GUI in PyQt5 when the first usables version of python 3 came out and it was incredibly painful.

Almost no documentation was avaible and I was learning how GUI works. It took me a while to get a basic app running and from there I mostly translated the official docs to python.
The startup world is big enough that this says little more than "Fuck You World".
Again there is no need for black and white. Take each case as it comes. Often edit and continue is enough sometimes you do need to stop and restart to be sure. Sometimes you are 99% sure and that is enough when you have 4 weeks of bugs and 1 week to ship a product. Heck sometimes you are trying to repro a complex but and half way through hit and unrelated issue, I make a sound of pain and someone else asks what's up, I tell them, they say it is fixed in latest, but I can edit and continue a fix now to save having to spend ages reproing. There are loads of times the feature is useful. I would suggest the people finding it amateur and not useful aren't using it correctly or at sensible times.
A programmer who learns business skills - who already has money is the next level up to start from, though designers for awhile seemed to be getting their due share of attention/importance validated in the trifecta of design-business-engineering skills.

As far as I can tell, having observed this question closely if intermittently for 20 years, those 80-90 hour work weeks are a myth. Which is unsurprising, since self-reported data is famously unreliable.

There's never any independent evidence, and to the extent that you can test the claims, they don't hold up. For example, if you look in the parking lots of these buildings at night or look for which office windows have lights on, it's obvious that they're nearly all empty, and that's always been the case. But both sides in the argument ("yeah I worked that hard" vs. "no one should work that hard") have an incentive to agree on inflated numbers, so they can argue about the rest.

I do remember one startup where the CEO would have a tantrum if someone left before midnight, but that was only for a brief period (the situation was unstable), and even at the peak of that insanity, no one worked close to 80-90 hours a week. People would just come in late the next day. They certainly thought they were working 80 hours though.
There's like 12 lights on the front of a car, what makes this one a hazard?
China is unique in their institutional use of criminal IP theft as a state strategy to catch up and eventually surpass the United States.

LIGO's comments[1] about the 6 gravitational wave detections they are currently confirming (and related publications):

[1] https://www.ligo.org/detections.php

After following the major science experiments over the last ~15 years, I've gotten the impression that the LIGO team is being very careful to not announce anything prematurely.

In an interview[2] with Prof. Rana Adhikari about the first detection, he describes how incredibly lucky it was to detect a very strong wave in the middle of the detector's sensitivity range, only ~30 minutes after each site independently enabled data collection. That's the type of situation that raises serious questions about the validity of the data and might even suggest sabotage (someone could be faking data). Fortunately, it sounds like they were careful to investigate the alternative explanations, including searching the labs for anything that looked like a possible sabotage device. It's always good to see scientists paying extra attention to rigor.

I'm still trying to figure out all the commercials, so I'm not yet focusing on inbound traffic (i.e. website) but if you reach out via email, we can see if we can do something together.
What's the point of comparing with other "knowledge workers"? And how can you pretend to make an argument when those other knowledge workers are not considered at all?

Surely interruptions are bad when you are programming, but interruptions are as bad when you are doing any other intellectually intensive task.

If the choice is between paying nothing to get whitelisted and paying pocket change, then the latter is preferable of course. But there's a third option, adblockers that can't be bribed by these partial monopolies.

I've always used ABP without thinking about it but today I switched to uBlock Origin and it's been amazing, no sponsored links, no annoying popups.

In my view, advertising doesn't create value, the world would be a better place without it.
"I personally couldn't sell my way out of a paper bag" - Is this an expression you've seen before? First time I've seen it, I like it. It's opposite to idea of someone who can sell pet rocks.
The “western” news spent a good part of 2015 covering Edward Snowden’s in great detail and sealing great damage to US reputation, despite the Chinese, Russian etc. governments having or aspiring for similar programs.

Generally the “western” (or at least American) press has a strong tradition of criticizing its own government, much stronger than some other nations. Criticizing foreign governments or running negative stories about them does not take away from that. There are lots of positive China stories in the MSM as well.
It doesn't work for many people who think 'there's no victim', or 'the victim can afford it'

Lets say you board a train at an unmanned station with no ticket machine. Nobody checks your ticket. You then get out at a manned station, but can just walk off.

Do you buy a ticket? Many who don't will think "I don't need to", not "I just broke the law" or "I just committed a crime"

How about you instead also get off at an unmanned station. How many people will seek out a way to pay their fare?

You don't have to be a sociopath to not feel guilty.
NEET is not synonymous with unemployed. It includes people who aren't in education or training as well. So comparing with the unemployed group in America, isn't a proper parallel.

You would need to compare to people who are both unemployed and also not in school.

Hence the unemployment number of 16-19 year old versus NEETS, would be very skewed as most of those people on those age in the US are legally required to be attending school thus can't be NEETs.

Sadly, we still don't have the seamless UI building functionality Delphi had 15 years ago, allowing making a fairly advanced desktop app in a day. Jumping between Qt Designer and IDE back and forth is still an order of magnitude more complicated than it needs to be.
Automation was never really a macro-level job killing force anywhere. It both created and destroyed jobs.

It was mainly a useful scapegoat. The reality was that highly automated factories were more visible (because they were the ones that didn't close and move abroad) and there was no shortage of anecdotes about jobs eliminated.

If you're trying to protect profitable trade deals and austerian government budgets, a scapegoat is necessary.

The most automated profession in the US has suffered no macro level disemployment effects: https://qz.com/962427/what-its-like-to-be-a-modern-engraver-...

FWIW I use PyQt5 in a code editor project I maintain. While all GUI frameworks have hiccups and smells to various degrees, Qt and PyQt5 has been, relatively speaking, the strongest UI framework I've encountered for Python. Why? Ease of development, cross-platform reach, "batteries included" (e.g. accessibility features, important for my project), friendliness of the API and breadth of features immediately spring to mind.

Perhaps PySide's return will encourage some competition in the Qt space for Python. For example, I wish it was simple to create a cross-platform installer for stand-alone Python apps that use Qt. Current solutions suffer from the 80/20 rule where the 20 usually contains something essential.
Ask HN: How to approach learning business skills?

Nope. He hasn't even reimbursed me for the domain name. He was supposed to get business cards but never did.
You're right -- due to some (must-have-been-pretty-awful) miscalculations about the cost of a certain program that pushed it into deficit territory. My mistake! I was also considering 2017 as this year since a budget spans two years.

For completeness, CA roughly carried a deficit from '02-'03 to '12-'13, and then roughly a surplus from '13-'14 onwards, except for 2017.
Ehhh, IF you are at Google/Facebook/Uber, AND you are an L5 senior engineer (6+ years of experience probably), then you might be making close to this.

It’s the collusion between state and business that make this chilling. It’s not just information gathering driving policy decisions it’s IP theft from a state actor that is transferred to local players to compete with US companies.

The only right answer is “As a retail investor, I’m not picking individual stocks.”

Accept that I don’t have, you don’t have, and with a very few exceptions, an individual for whom this isn’t an all-consuming more-than-full-time occupation basically will never have, proprietary knowledge (an “edge”) that’s not already priced in.

Apple refused to replace for this issue for me on my 2013. Claimed I must have damaged it by applying too much pressure to it in a bag. Did everything I could including many emails but got nowhere, so if you’re able to offer any advice or even a case reference or something I could refer to I will definitely try and get them to repair it again.

Looks like the same might be happening to my six month old MBP, along with the keyboard going, which I’ve been really careful with, so yeah, Apple laptops aren’t in my good books right now!
Is that a lifetime sentence for DUI? Or does it 'time out'?

Why does it sound "great"? There's nothing in the original post to support the assertion that "shaming works". This is the question we need to ask:

Are the shaming aspects of this policy effective at preventing drunk driving?

All I see is the humiliation of a public branding. That's "effective" in the sense that "tough on crime" political demagogues can use it to win votes from the brutalized electorate. But shouldn't an engineering community like ours have higher aspirations?

For instance, there is an actual solution to drunk driving on the horizon: self-driving cars.
There's a certain common expectation one has from any UI.
This doesn't exist for me with anything Google - be it search, Youtube, Android, etc. - my first thought is always 'I'll need to fight it to get the results I'm looking for.' That's how they roll.
> Jumping between Qt Designer and IDE back and forth is still an order of magnitude more complicated than it needs to be.

... uh ? the designer is part of the ide... nowadays you even have a code view synced with the UI editor in realtime (http://blog.qt.io/blog/2017/05/24/qt-quick-designer-qt-creat...)
My servers generally have an IPv4 address and a whole IPv6 subnet. I like to disable SSH except on a specific IPv6 address.

Many botnets just focus on IPv4 and there is a lot more territory to scan on IPv6. I usually couple that with moving to a non-standard port, enforcing modern encryption (ed25519 or ChaCha20, etcc), fail2ban, require SSH keys, etc
Google also degrades the experiences on the own platform because they think they know what is right and needed.

Example: Android platform with their own Maps application will kill phone in minutes.

Maps continually will ask to enable location, which is not needed just to look at maps and search, every few seconds after selecting no previously. Only way around is by checking don't ask again. Bam, infinite loop of software asking with policy refereeing answer. Google Maps kills a phone's battery with-in minutes.

nvm, the article mentions it. cell phones check in with the tower while they are on, which is a way to track where someone has taken their cell phone. afaik, there's very limited privacy protections around this in the US because they are considered the business records of the cell company.
Their value is so volatile because they have no intrinsic value, no government (that I am aware of) is demanding tax paid in a cryptocoin. There is also no mechanism for increasing the value of the coin, through a central bank interest rate. There's also no means to increase the supply (after mining runs out) to allow for economic expansion, eventually you will end up with run away inflation, with no mechanism to control it. Honestly they don't work as currencies, they are speculative assets underpinned by some interesting but largely redundant technology.

Proof of stake is built on trust, much like the financial system, so why reinvent the wheel for a corruptible ledger of a non-trustless, non-currency?
I don't want to drive drunk

Therefore I would be quite happy to have something built in my car that checks I'm not drunk before I turn on the engine

I'd be even more happy in the very hypothetical case where I'm willing to drive drunk (say a volcano had just erupted) and all it would do is light up a warning light

(that said I know when I've had too much to drink -- like now at 2300 after a succefull 12 hour day, and wouldn't drive, it's when I'm in that 'I don't know if I'm impared state', that's where the breathalyser comes in helpful, so there's no need in my case to do anything with the results other than present them to me)

I was born and raised in Columbus, GA. I briefly lived in Germany as a toddler, but I don't remember it.

My mother is a German immigrant and my father was career military. He retired when I was three years old and bought a house where I lived until I married and moved out. I graduated high school with people I had gone to kindergarten with.

I was married to a soldier for a long time. In my twenties, one of our stints was in Germany. We were there more than 3.5 years.

I got to meet some of my German relatives and got to be exposed to my mother's culture. I had always felt I was missing something in that regard and it helped me feel whole.
Yep, website seems to be down.

The real question is what fraction of these calls had both parties inside the US. That's a different category than when one party is external/foreign — that's domestic espionage, which is a violation of law unless pre-authorized by the FISA court. THAT's the number I'd most like to know.
Once upon a time, Qt was GPL + commercial. A separate project - PyQt - came and was GPL + commercial too.

Later, Qt became GPL + LGPL + commercial. However, PyQt, didn't want to add LGPL and stayed dual licensed. Qt thought "ok then, will have to do it by myself" and created an alternative to PyQt called PySide, which was GPL + LGPL + commercial.

That was in Qt4 time. Then Qt5 came, and PyQt5 appeared, while PySide was still in Qt4 land.

Then PySide2 happened, now known as Qt for Python.
This is a pretty interesting article. It reminds me yet again that understanding how the data is collected and interpreted is as important, if not more important, than the data since the post processed data can drive invalid conclusions.

Similar economic metrics that have undergone fairly large changes for both practical and political reasons are the unemployment rate and the cost of living.

In all of these cases if you can get the core data and the methodology (as Dr. Houseman did) and it is yet another reason to make all of the data available rather than just to governors on the Federal Reserve board.
There's no reason to get personal. We're all on the same side here.
Has the python qt installation story improved much recently? A few years ago it was a pain to set up, especially within a virtualenv, which was one of my only complaints with it. Everything else was wonderful.
Again, there are perfectly fine and very useful blockchains that do not provide any kind of trustlessness. See corda.net. This insistence that a blockchain cannot be permissioned is not accepted by most people. It's silly to keep insisting a word means some restrictive value of X when a great many people do not use it as such. A FedCoin could be highly centralized and still provide enormous value as a trustworthy, distributed database.

I personally consider a native platform's shadiness by a mix of the kind of content they allow, the kind of content that ends up on there, and the amount of fraudulent traffic/clicks that advertisers get billed for.

Taboola and Outbrain at least have manual reviewers attempting to uphold a certain standard for content, though there is a ton of room for improvement. I've never noticed a lot of suspect traffic coming from these two, which is in stark contrast to networks like content.ad or adblade. Of course, Outbrain/Taboola don't compare to the big networks, but I've experienced a good balance of affordable and reasonable quality traffic, though this isn't always the case, as costs/quality can be quite variable over time.

Objectively there should be no difference between a honeypot VM and an actual "productive" VM. I acknowledge that it is much harder to setup, maintain and supervise a network of honeypots VMs instead of a dedicated isolated honeypot server process which just simulates a system. However, as mentioned in other comments here, there is no gain of knowledge if you don't simulate a whole system but only parts of it.

For more context, immediate mode is much closer to the type of declarative UI popularized by libraries like React. The invariant is that what is displayed on screen is always a pure function of some state variable(s), and on any input/event, instead of needing to "reach into" some retained object that represents a certain piece of text in a certain pane in a certain window, you just change those state variables and re-render the entire UI from scratch. Sounds expensive, but for a 2D UI on hardware that's designed to do far more complicated things at 60FPS, it's far from the bottleneck.

For instance, https://github.com/billsix/pyNuklear/blob/master/demo/overvi... (this function is called repeatedly on each frame) is not significantly different from the example at https://reactjs.org/tutorial/tutorial.html#what-is-react ... but it is very different from something like `div = createDiv(); div2 = createDiv(parent=div)` etc. which would be a retained-mode API.
