I always wonder where the myth that older developers are "slower" comes from.

Dunno about you folks, but I get better and faster every year. And, for me, that productivity metric is probably approaching parabolic.

You learn enough languages, frameworks, tools - all the fundamentals start to merge together. You can pick the next one up faster than you did the one you just put down. You understand how to design software; how to organize code. Exactly when to reuse, refactor, or copy/paste.

You have a better understanding of how the market works and the competitive strategies around product development will manifest - not only within your own product and industry, but when analyzing and choosing vendors as well (you really want to leave it up to a 25 year-old to choose AWS vs GCP?).

Sure, I've got a ton of better things to spend my nights and weekends on than writing code for free. I can also spot a doomed project from a mile a way and have no qualms about delivering a very curt "yeah no thanks" to that project manager who waddles over with some deluded hero fantasy where they carry the flag on my back for something that's probably never going to see the light of day anyway.

Maybe that's it? That's probably it...
Also restaurants aren't all exactly the same, so lack of tipping can't be used as a strong point of comparison against their competition.

Two TVs for the same base price, one with $49.99 shipping from Best Buy, and one with free (with prime) from Amazon? I'll go with Amazon because the product is exactly the same.

Those two Italian places down the street, except one of them doesn't do tipping? Sure I'll take that into account, but more importantly, which one has better food? And which has a better base price? Which one is quicker (or maybe which is more relaxed)? Which one gets my order right? This is all just as or more important than whether or not they a part of the tipping culture.

That worked for me for 2 days. Then a manager was breathing down my neck to debug his cluster. So due to stress I overwrote the kubeconfig file with my managers kubeconfig.

Now I can't find a way to get the docker kubeconfig back, resetting the cluster, reinstalling kubernetes etc does nothing, and now that I have uninstalled and reinstalled docker, kubernetes doesn't even come up anymore. I'm also not allowed to share debug information with the Docker company. No real help from Docker developers without debug info. Because they can't tell me how docker generates a kubeconfig or where it writes its logs without seeing my diagnostics output...

The author talks about a piece of software as if it were a closed system, where disorder would inevitably increase. This is not the case, disorder in software can be decreased by doing work. However, the business requirements will inevitably become more complex over time, and there will come a point where the cost of adaptation of the software is higher than the cost of starting over with a design that better accomodates the current requirements. Inability to adapt is observed in ageing organisms also.
I've never understood the 'for humans' bit, though I see it all the time.

Is it a backhanded insult? Ie is the tacit point that design which doesn't follow whatever guidelines is therefore not built 'for humans'?'

Technical director in a specialist engineering data science consultancy group here. The problem we face is a gap between customer expectation of skills and costs. We have a brilliant high-skilled team (15% post-doc, pretty much everyone else MSc in a STEM subject, loads of experience). Our customers like what we do (we are constantly recruiting), but they don't always realise that our fees are based on competing for talent against hedge funds and high-tech startups. It's a fine balancing act to get the right calibre of people at a price our market will bear.

How to hack the Interview – 101
Mastodon is part of a federated network called the "fediverse": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse

The fediverse works by propagating statuses a set of standard protocols: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OStatus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActivityPub

Typical Mastodon instances have one or more frontends (Ruby on Rails) backed by a PostgreSQL database (possibly replicated). Several cloud providers offer managed PostgreSQL instances which mitigate the SPOF of using an RDBMS backend.

Accounts of users are bound to the instance where they were created, but recently Mastodon added a data export function that could be used to move an account to a different instance. I doubt you'd retain your followers in this case.

Unboundling user identity from instances sounds like a difficult researh problem, given that users can upload considerable amounts of data.
No, we use math to model it, but whether our models are "perfect" may be very difficult to ever know. Since we cannot model every atom, we don't know whether the differences between our model and reality are because our models are wrong or if we simply have imperfect inputs (starting positions) in them.
> Fortnite is also subtly different from existing shooter games, in ways that may specifically appeal to women more than other titles do. It’s relatively easy for first-time players, and it looks more cartoonish and less gory than its rivals.

That's eBPF ("extended"). Unfortunately, "BPF" is commonly used to refer to both.
CEOs are replaceable but there is a risk in that replacement. The high salaries of CEO mostly reflects that risk. You have not understood my beef with the use of word "infinite".

This seems like educated guessing, anyone have better insight?
You are assuming that interviewers read CVs/resumes before the interview....

A colleague recently had an experience at a second interview where the hiring manager proudly proclaimed that they hadn't read her CV and the interviewer was the one who had done the first interview!
I interpreted the original posters point that the git repository could not be modified without destroying it. I thought that's how the next poster was responding to it. If you cannot modify an old entry without destroying the integrity of your system, are you required to modify? Either the answer is yes and you effectively cannot use certain data structures (with their integrity) or the answer is no and certain data structures allow you to keep data.
Never lower your rate. If you want to make yourself cheaper for the company, offer to work fewer hours, or on a fixed-term contract rather than permanent employment. For those options, you should also actually be raising your hourly rate, because you'll then have to cover more of your own costs, like taxes and insurance.

And don't let anyone squeeze you to make your actual rate lower. I once went to an interview where I was told that the expectation would be for 45 hours of billable work per week, and so I immediately told them that my salary expectation for that would be 20% higher than for a 40 hour work week. They could raise the salary, or lower the work hours, because on a per-hour basis, their pay range was suddenly no longer competitive.

They declined to negotiate that. So I eventually went to work for someone else more willing to pay me what I think I'm worth.

Don't work for free; it just encourages those who try to scam free work out of people. The only person for whom you should be doing unpaid work is yourself.
Yes, yes they did/do. It's a move straight out of the mobster playbook. It's the modern day equivalent of paying for "protection".

Yelp has also been sued by investor's for allegedly misleading them into believing that Yelp was filtering out everything that wasn't reliable, first-hand reviews from people who actually went to those businesses and paid for services.

On a similar note, I believe business owners have alleged numerous times that when they refuse to pay the extortion fees to have bad reviews removed, they suddenly get a bunch of bad reviews all at once. Also, Yelp has seemingly had a habit of allowing competitor's post bullshit reviews on businesses who haven't paid them for that "service".

I don't what currently goes on, though. Maybe they have cleaned it up? But I doubt it.
> I go out of my way to hire older devs that are eschewed by typical Bay Area startups

Going "out of [your] way" to hire older devs sounds like age discrimination. AFAIK, age discrimination in this direction isn't illegal in America, but it seems odd that you would respond to an article decrying age-discrimination by proudly declaring that you discriminate too, in the opposite direction. Maybe you just meant that you almost always find the qualities/compensation-demands you're looking for in older applicants rather than younger ones, but your phrasing doesn't seem to indicate that.
Former PR shill here: thank you for making this.

I left that industry because it was stuck in the 90s: writing crummy emails in Outlook and bcc'ing every journalist whose email address you managed to get hold of. No MailChimp, no analytics, and media monitoring was just doing a Google search for the company's name and copying and pasting clippings into a Word document.

No, generally when I buy something I didn't know I wanted, I soon feel vaguely "bleagh" about it and realize I had merely lusted after it, but that it didn't actually add anything to my life.

Buddhists have this down pat: Desire is suffering.

I think people are pretty capable of finding hobbies on their own. We're connected to this global information network. It's not like people aren't being exposed to new ideas all the time. But telling them "you will be happier if you buy this" is disingenuous, and makes people question their existing happiness. That's... bad.

I'll tell you one place where it's appropriate, though -- if someone is already seeking recreation, and doesn't know which option they want, marketing a specific answer is fine. One of the reasons people love libraries is that they can go wander around and discover something they'd never heard of. But that's someone who is already looking for a book to spend time with! Compare to a banner ad saying "this book will fix your life", when someone was just trying to look up information on how to fix their mower. They don't need that. They need to fix their mower.

My question around reviews in medical is always around how a physician is supposed to be able to respond because of HIPAA? It almost seems unfair to be able to review them since there is very little they can do to refute anything without violating it.

What I meant by the 'four years' comment was not that it takes that long to train, but that GDPR has been included in the training for that long. A four year run-up is plenty long enough for even start-ups to get themselves up to speed and design their systems for privacy by design.

That's fine but they don't have to pay until after the case and appeals. Meaning you have to be able to front the litigation costs in order to have a chance at recovering them. There is a non-zero risk of losing.

I would suggest using a pseudonym and VPN for any review written on a potentially litigious business unless you have the funds to litigate. Problem is Yelp is much more likely to mark the review as spam.
Please, please, please let everybody come to this conclusion. How much better would the world be as place. I’ve wasted many hours of my time at work, not working, which is so sad
one of the caveats of the question though is the people who are put there already know exactly what they need to build and how to build it; so you don't need 20 phd's to re-solve the chemistry and engineering challenges. It's almost purely a (still not solvable with 20 people) manufacturing problem.

"places" here can be 'schools dedicated to older 'nontraditional' students' within Ivies.
It's federated and decentralized to a degree via the fact that content is federated across instances, and regardless of the source instance being up or down that content will still be visible on other instances (assuming there are followers of that content there).

Mastodon depends on postgres; whether your postgres is multi-master or such is entirely up to you, the instance admin. Hosting it is much like hosting any other modern rails app.

Some admins use rds, some use postgres-in-docker on a single machine, etc etc. I'm sure some have more fascinating setups there.

However, that's wholly outside of what mastodon claims to do or be; it's decentralized and federated in more meaningful ways; there is no central authority listing users or allowing logins.

Not really. OP was arguing that there are no shortages, the companies are not willing offer more. I pointed out that if we were to accept that logic then we might as well stop using the word "shortage" as every shortage is likely to clear up if you pay more.

But the truck driver's worth is determined by market too so whenever someone says there is a shortage they mean shortage at a viable price point.

Congratulations! These look really nice! If you wanted to make them more useful and inspiring to other teachers, it would be wonderful to pair them with an essay on how they can be used effectively in class. Do students use them to explore, like microworlds? Do you use them during classroom discussions, for posing hypotheses or consolidating several ideas? Do students use them as evidence during debates? Do students get used to having these and think up others they wish they had? Do they become touchstones students use to remind themselves of something they previously understood?

Supporting social practices is an important part of a technology--folks without experience in schools (or informal learning environments) sometimes picture educational technologies being used alone in a vacuum, the mooc high school. I'm pretty hopeful about using educational technologies to help teachers grow their teaching practices.

I'm sorry, I went for brevity because someone was asking for possible impacts. If I were using 1.1.1.1 as a DNS server and saw this news story, I would change to a different DNS server until the problem was resolved.

My goal was to provide actionable information quickly.

I never said it was specific to Cloudflare. :) It is specifically a mistake which would break an assumption - that putting 1.1.1.1 into your resolver results in an answer from Cloudflare. DNS doesn't necessarily have any protections (not current, so maybe they were added?), so the only level of protection is that the IP address routes UDP traffic where we expect it to.

It also isn't a long-term problem, it only remains for the length of time the route is wrong.

It could also be argued that we're already trusting every router between the device and 1.1.1.1 anyways, so there's not much difference. Except that there's already a trust relationship between those groups, and the new route subverts them.

It's the same level of risk if someone had done a BGP hijack of any backbone router.
