Most of the issues I have with Gitlab's UI are the result of many small, seemingly insignificant and probably nitpicky-sounding choices that tend to build on to one another. All of these are my humble opinion:

* Everything about browsing projects. Okay, so if you click on "Projects", you get taken to a list of "your projects". That's kind of annoying since I'd go to my personal page if I wanted a list of stuff I've touched (kinda like Github) but it's defensible as a choice. If you want something that isn't yours, it takes another click to "explore projects", which goes to a "trending" page that will either be blank or have very few things on it, and another click after that to get to the time-sorted list of everything based on last update, which is usually what I want.

* Groups appear to be second class citizens of sorts, rather than the top level organizers they really are. (I.e. groups are separate from projects, even though all projects live in a group or user space). Bitbucket did this better - when you log in, you see a list of groups first, and from there drill down into projects.

Basically, it kinda wants to be a hierarchy but offers too many ways to circumvent it. Imagine if you were just browsing a file explorer and saw files two levels below your pwd. It's disorienting.

* Top level project pages feel cluttered and noisy. Github does this better, without requiring a separate sidebar.

* Repo settings are buried under expand links. This did not make the page more usable, it made it so I had to guess where the setting I want is.

* Why are there two nearly identical pages for showing repository contents? (One at the top level of a project, which is any project's landing page, and another on its "repository" tab, which is the same view missing a few elements)

* Releases and their artifacts are buried behind "tags" (which they technically are in Git parlance, but still) or a very easy to overlook CI status badge on the last commit shown on the landing page. Releases can only be created with API calls or manually through the new tag page, rather than programmatically or as part of a CI job. (Yes, I know, the CI job could technically call the API. You get a cookie. Point is, it feels rather buried.)

* Build artifacts can only be downloaded in a zip bundle, rather than individually

* I haven't figured out how to turn off the "Do you want to enable Auto DevOps?" div showing in every single repo.

* Advertising for Google Cloud on the CI Kubernetes page is just plain tacky. I'm sure there's a way to turn this off, but I shouldn't have to in the paid Enterprise product.
Until MS bought Github. Now for Gitlab this can as well become yes.
So, while I usually agree blockchain/crypto ecosystem is the most degenerate thing since Vista, it's worth being a little objective here.

These were not four crypto nerds travelling with a Sherpa, it was a team of four experienced alpinists, accompanied by three Sherpas. The expedition was not planned by AskFM, they only decided to sponsor the expedition in exchange for the potential to make it into dumb promotional material. In all likelihood, the alpinists were going to make the trek with or without the sponsorship, but the sponsorship from AskFM did help cover financial costs. This is no different than Red Bull sponsoring dangerous stunts all the time. For what it's worth, the team apparently rescued a climber from a different expedition along the way down, who most certainly would have died otherwise.

That said, the CEO did not handle the situation well. On being accused of this, he called the whole thing a rumour. Later, he conceded how fucked up the whole thing was, but AskFM still hasn't removed the tasteless promotion.
Anecdotally, I always make myself drink a full glass of water before bed if I've been drinking, and give the same to anyone I've been drinking with, and it seems to prevent hangover every time. Correlation is not causation, of course, but it can't hurt.

Maybe they should change their Twitter bio. It leads with "GitLab is open source software" but if they move many of the users of the Community Edition to GitLab Ultimate, they will stop feeling the pain points of the Community Edition and too many core features will be Enterprise-only, and the Community Edition will fall into disuse.

I'm not sure how large of a timeline you're looking at Apple with, but in my experience, they've always catered to the "wealthy", or those who didn't spend their money well.

They've always been a company that made beautiful hardware, the kind that serves an aesthetic purpose in addition to it's function. Far cheaper alternatives exist, but that's never been Apple's goal.

Is your room clean?

It's a somewhat serious, somewhat tongue-in-cheek question. But if you need to clean your room, maybe you should do that first. Instead of having grandiose visions of improving things at large scale, prove to yourself you can improve things at a local scale and keep them that way.

If that sort of thinking is interesting, there's a whole book of it in https://jordanbpeterson.com/12-rules-for-life/ Though I'll say I got out of the existential and nihilistic mindsets differently, I don't feel like I have to wrestle with meaningness like I used to, before I ever heard of the author, I've just read good-sounding things from people who have read that book or have otherwise gotten themselves invested in the author's doings.

Like other posters, I suggest to test the market before writting your own software. A client of mine is using https://shopk.it for the store front, and it seems quite ok at 10€/month. It allows you to have your own domain attached to it, but you have to pay a little extra for https (which is kind-of strange, but...).

This is a very abbreviated form as I'm heading out the door, but typically a "leader" is more likely to be lower on agreeableness than a "manager". It's a component of pushing boundaries or navigating challenges/obstacles. A "manager" biases higher on conscientiousness than a "leader" because their role as a facilitator is in no small part to make sure all the i's are dotted and the t's are crossed.

Likewise a good "manager" is probably motivated by community-building and completion. A good "leader" is probably motivated by the challenge and the path itself in addressing it.

Roughly, you can actually think of the mass of these fundamental particles being _defined_ by how much they interact with the Higgs field. Higgs bosons themselves interact with the Higgs field, to an extent that their mass comes out to be ~125 GeV/c^2. Tau leptons interact with it less, so their mass is 1.7 GeV/c^2. The key point is that the strength of the interaction of any given particle type with the Higgs field is a totally arbitrary, free parameter of the theory that we only know by measuring those particles (with the exception of electroweak bosons, which have a constrained relationship with the Higgs due to electroweak symmetry). A very deep open question in physics is whether there is some more structured theory that explains exactly why these parameters have their values, or at least, how the parameters for different particles are related.

As a side node, the proton actually gets almost none of its mass from the Higgs field! That's because the Higgs mechanism only gives mass to fundamental particles in the theory, and protons are made up of quarks and gluons bound together in a potential of the strong nuclear force. The quarks within a proton are very light, and the gluons are completely massless, so it is actually the binding energy of these particles that yields the effective mass of the proton (this is E=mc^2 at work).
It is illegal in Silicon Valley, which is governed by California law. (I'm making an assumption about the meaning of "SV".)

But that just means they can't enforce the contract as to work it can't legally apply to, not that they can be hit with penalties for drafting the contract that way. If they choose to fight over it, you'll still have to fight.

I think Kyle, Scott, Melissa and Ryan can also expect a pretty good payday if GitHub followed the startup tradition of giving early hires a substantial amount of stock.
It's the people who make laboratory glassware, which is the classic skilled craft taught by an apprenticeship in addition to formal classwork:

> To master scientific glass blowing, proper training and apprenticeships are key. Only one school in the nation, Salem Community College in New Jersey, offers a degree program.

> In addition to the hands-on training, which requires a knack for precision as well as coordination, students must take courses in organic chemistry, math and computer drawing.

> "You need to know enough about everything, about mechanics, about chemistry, about physics, about thermodynamics — whatever a chemist can come up with, you need to know just a little bit to get that chemist through," said Dennis Briening, instructional chair of Salem's two-year program. "And of course, you need to be very skilled, technique-wise. So it really takes a long time to get to a position like Rick's."

Sounds like a job for people who are bright, good with their hands, and like making money. Really, the whole piece is about how few people are going into this trade, and I can't see how people can't be brought into it if the demand's there.
Have you ever tried Shopify? It's nearly full control and cheap as shit. I've started stores and sold products in the same day many times, they have 1000s of apps, and even 2 week trial that enables you to test any product before even paying a cent. Unless you can't live with credit card fees, or you're selling drugs, you should almost 100% always use Shopify. Not to mention they can be scaled to the moon cheaply too. Call shopify when you hit a decent milestone and just tell them to waive you're monthly fee. Not that it'll even matter at that point.

I know I'm being a hater, but coding the store is really terrible advice. Learning to use a tool over reinventing the tool is a step backwards.

A common solution is to have the server track which state frames that the clients have acknowledged receiving. The server can then delta compress from that client’s frame, for each client. It’s a bit more costly on the server side, as it means you need to maintain state frames back to the oldest acknowledged frame across all clients, but it guarantees you will be sending a packet a client can understand. Usually this is combined with some sort of limit which kicks a client off as timed out if its acknowledged frame strays too far from the most recent one.

This is typical education & OSS licensing. You can find the same verbiage in basically every discounted system. JetBrains products start with "for educational use only" when using academic discounts. When using Autodesk software for free, you get the same stuff.

Gitlab is trying really hard to be a great offering -- it's highly improbable they're going to resort to extortion on their newly opened discount programs.

Agreed, it’s not likely to be enforced. Note that you cannot sue anyone over the GDPR, however. That is a fundamental misunderstanding that I keep seeing repeated - the GDPR only gives people the right to report companies to the relevant authority. The authority can then investigate and issue a warning/fine as they see fit.
There is not always a placebo in Phase 3 studies. You can have an active control. Here's an example [0]: active arm is upadacitinib, control is methotrexate (the standard of care)

FDA guidelines are you need "at least two adequate and well-controlled studies, each convincing on its own, to establish effectiveness" [1]. Well controlled can be placebo controlled or active control

Yeah yeah, small sample size, anecdotal and whatnot, but still... There's this particular openness of the mind quite a lot of non-users just seem to lack.

Not from Substack, but the answer is that people reliably look at their inboxes and open the emails.
Fair point. Coming from the perspective of an early stage team (i.e. a startup), often the founder is the leader, and by necessity, he/she needs to manage the early team. That means working to develop some of the traits needed to manage AND lead effectively. Ideally, that founder will grow and be able to continue to lead/manage the team as it grows.

At most organizations I've been in, we'd struggle if the person in charge of a team (whether the CEO or a functional leader of say Marketing) was unable to both navigate and facilitate.

Yeah, none of the rest of the big three are asking you to pay anything for those masters at this point, though. "They're your nodes, you paid for them" seems like a reasonable position to take here.
I've posted once in this thread already, but I can't stress enough that you should use Shopify.

Not only that, but there's an excellent article front page regarding selling online here:

Using overvalued stock could make the acquisition “cheaper” than the sticker price (not really free). However, they’ve said they’ll do extraordinary buybacks to cancel the dilution in six months following the transaction. So unless the price of MSFT shares has a large correction during that period they are really going to spend over $7bn in cash.
As a writer who has worked with a number of great editors over the years: I agree. In the short-term, the best writers will recognize the value of having an editor and factor that expense into their business models. Ultimately, I'd love to see an ecosystem evolve where editors can sell their services to writers who want to improve their publications. I see that as a pretty exciting opportunity for a platform like Substack at some point in the future.
> Really, the whole piece is about how few people are going into this trade, and I can't see how people can't be brought into it if the demand's there.

Because you may spend years getting a degree in making lab glassware, only to find yourself put out a job because someone invents a glassblowing machine... Or trains up a few thousand people in China to do it for one tenth your wages.

Not exactly motivating me to drop everything, move to Salem, and spend the next few years becoming a glassblower.

> Fellow chemists are relieved Caltech will keep a glass blower on campus. For them, it's more convenient than ordering from a catalog and preserves the intimacy researchers should have with the experiments they design.

Let me get right ahead on staking my livelyhood on a university's budget indulging the 'intimacy' between its chemistry lab and their resident glassblower. Who do you think will be canned when Caltech will need to scrounge up some cash to build a swanky new dorm?

Chris from Substack here not Matt. The great thing about the Substack model is that it is a big financial opportunity. We help writers get paid, and we take a cut of that so that we're aligned.

I doubt this will have much positive PR reception. More likely this is to minimize liability cases. However I am not sure how I feel about this.
