I can definitely understand the feeling of wasted time, and perhaps I didn't do a good job of explaining the point.

The main issue is that you shouldn't discuss your current salary, but you should absolutely discuss the budget for the role. The reasons I make the distinction is because many candidates will have a lower current salary, and although the company has budgeted X for the role they will be happy to pay (X-delta) instead.

Talking about your current salary is basically never a good idea, but talking about the budget and salary for the role is certainly a good idea.

No, it's not. Discord is made for gaming.

If you would build a software for communities (for discussion in general), then you would add different features that don't make sense for Slack or Discord.

It's a huge market with a lot of distinct use cases, and therefore can support a lot of similar players that focus on different use cases.
My son wanted a own MC server to play with. And then he wanted all those plugins. So I had to learn how to code and compile java code. I had almost as much fun coding/compiling as my son had playing and cresting his world. The server I use is Spigot. Easy to get started with.
Yeah, you'll wait till it's too late. Just freaking quit. You'll find how to reach those that matter to you anyway. And those contacts will be more meaningful, because you're not on FB, where communications have degenerated to less than authentic.
Add truck drivers (and associated truck stops, restaurants, etc); food packaging and (most of) farming (once we have lab grown meat) retail (already happening); manufacturing and coal mining and there isn't really any jobs left that doesn't require a college degree and few enough of those outside of major cities.
Agreed. I would have expected 3m. I have a feeling they are also busy with a ton of other issues. The Q is whether this is top priority or not in light of all those other issues and it's chance of occurring.
This is how the internet will get better as a hole. There's no way for companies to track lots of different states requirements, so they implement all the requirements for all the states (and EU). I hope that more small states create laws with giant consequences.

I haven't used Vue (and definitely not TS with Vue), but considering how easy it is to create type definitions for libraries written in ES6, if using Vue + TS is awkward (assuming its not because no one wrote a type definition for it), the only way it could make things better for TS users is with some refactorings to make sure types "follow along", and that totally would affect ES6 users. Anything that does not affect ES6 users would not affect TS users either.

An example of this is how in Redux, anything that uses the state in TS needs to add an annotation to type the store, because its completely decoupled (and thus theres no way for the state type to "follow"). Any way to make it follow requires some API changes (eg: creating mapStateToProp functions by calling a method on the store)

I have been a hiring manager for 5+ years now. While this isn't great, as long as you emphasize that your first two were while you were still in school and more or less all of them were at startups, this doesn't look terrible. You rolled the dice, it didn't work out. It also sounds like you were a contractor at one of these places as well, just make sure you emphasize that.

The bigger question in my mind is why you got into so many situations with failing startups- were they doomed to fail and you just didn't have the business sense to see that? In either case, it sounds like you are still only a few years out from graduating, you get a lot of slack for inexperience in my eyes.

Of course I can't speak for everyone, some guy that has been at MegaCorp for 17 years since he stepped out of school may not be as kind, but you probably don't want to work for him anyway.

Regardless though, your latest tenure is 3 years. The trend is in the right direction. If your current situation is bad, now is almost certainly the right time to make a jump- I can tell you first hand, the quality of people we are seeing right now is substandard, if you know what you are doing, you will stand out. This is a great time to be picky not only about the role you accept, but the company as well- an established business that you know will be around in 3-5 years and hopefully thriving is particularly important. Also consider that we are definitely at the top of an economic cycle, the next recession is on the horizon and the weaker companies will feel the pain.

What about equipment and machinery? How do you use a tractor on a vertical farm? That challenge seems more expensive to solve than buying more land.
No my friend. It isn't a joke. This is being taken seriously throughout the entire industry. Batteries are nowhere near where they need to be. If we lose a pipeline in New England, batteries will not last long enough to serve load along with solar and wind. That might be viable in 10-15 years, but not now. Look at all the latest reports from ISO-NE. They are the neutral party running the grid in that area. I understand very well that the majority of nuclear plants slated to retire in the US are doing so because of economics. I'm not interested in something that isn't slated to be built over here anytime soon.
It just means we're the arbiters of morality; it's a universalism that evolves. It's a social contract. There are some things that don't go right by people.
I'm always fascinated by these -- it puts hard earned skills (that I would otherwise take for granted) in perspective. Thanks!

A few suggestions:
I would argue that Redux isn't required (but suggested), and instead a Flux implementation is required.

I would also argue that SASS (or LESS) preprocessor experience isn't required but also just suggested.

Targeting JEP 326: Raw String Literal for JDK 12
The symptoms you describe are what someone I know experiences. In the same situation of making a phone call, he give the handset to his wife. What's pathetic is that the operator insists on talking to him "in person" even if he sits next to her. Some of these trained operators apply their company rules to the letter so much that it feels almost barbaric.

That’s a bummer about the cloudsearch functionality and I’m sure we wouldn’t mind adding it back, but definitely no malice there. Reddit’s search was not exactly great before... so moving it to a completely new backend was necessary. https://www.reddit.com/r/changelog/comments/6pi0kk/improving...
They could specify that there are exactly two possible evaluation orders (left-right or right-left) the choice of which is implementation-defined (must be documented) and that there is a sequence point between the evaluations of the argument expressions. (As well as between evaluating the function designating expression and the arguments.)

The fact that there are N! possible evaluation orders for N argument expressions: which implementation does that serve?

Or that there is no sequence points: which calling convention does that serve?
What stands out to me is the absence of anything targeting WebAssembly. This must be a work in progress.
JavaFX 11 snapshots in maven sonatype
I evaluated react/redux and vue/vuex for a project . I wrote a small poc in both. This is why I chose vue

1. Js doesn’t support immutable data structures so trying to return a deeply nested model using spread and other things was ugly. The answer seems to be “flatten your data”. I didn’t have to flatten my model with vuex. Vuex uses mutations when I can keep a flat model of observable but also keep my pristine model that I can send back over the wire with no changes . I suspect mobx may do the same sort of thing for vue. I feel like the react pattern would work better with a language like clojurescript that actually has immutable data structures.

2. Prefer html to Jsx although vue does support jsx. Admittedly this is just a preference thing.

3. Less boilerplate. I felt like I was writing more code that didn’t really do anything useful in react/redux. Vue seemed to have the smallest ceremony to code ratio.

4. Vuetify seemed a lot easier to use and was more polished than the react counterparts. I know it’s just a widget library but I found it fantastic and the docs were great. Vue slots are a great idea

5. Documentation . Vue has second to none documentation and this is important when you are starting out

I build a medium sized app in vue and was astounded that I literally did not run into one issue. That has never happened to me in 30 years. Kudos to that team.

6. React router was on its 4th rewrite. I can’t deal with constant breaking changes

7. Router and vuex felt more cohesive and integrated into vue

My current OS actually stems back from the Public Beta that I ran on my G3. I've cloned the data from HDD to HDD/Computer to Computer and upgraded the OS every time, and it's currently on El Capitan (because my Mac Pro is no longer supported). I've never run into issues during an upgrade.
Congrats on shipping! As someone who's written similar software[1] (for Python), I can appreciate the hard work that went into this.

One piece of feedback regarding the docs: the documentation section in your README has two links, one to the wiki and the other to the website. I had initially scanned the section and followed the link to the website (I don't automatically associate "wiki" with "documentation") and was then unable to find your documentation for a good couple of minutes. You should make the wiki link more prominent.

> most wealth in America is earned through hard work and sacrifice

Ha. Citation needed.

Most wealth in America is concentrated in the hands of a small number of incredibly wealthy families. It is plainly ridiculous to suggest that someone with billions of dollars has worked harder or sacrificed proportionally more than a single mother working two jobs.

Hard and sacrifice are simply not the driving factors in wealth generation.

It depends on the type and amount of regulation. I'd definitely classify Doctorow and this blog post as far-left.
Spot on. Opting out of the weaponized, automated surveillance machine is not really possible.

I do block FB, Google and a bunch of others at the IP level. There are fallbacks, but I do end up leaking when they stand up new IP blocks, and the smaller surveillance shops are impossible to keep up with.

I also pee in their datasets sometimes, but that's a more experimental/entertainment activity. And I'm playing with some other ideas not ready for prime time.

> how can there be a balance of power between the individual and large organizations seeking to exploit everyone's data?

Regulation. That's what you do with antisocial behavior, negative externalities and worse. The transnational nature of the net adds complications and freeholds, but the big boys absolutely could be brought to heel, if people wanted to. Politically, the winds seem to be blowing in the other direction in the US, and the GDPR has been argued to death here.

But that's how the situation improves. (It will never be "fixed", absent an event that destroys the ability to run networks.)
While the long-term plan for Apple appears to be to move everything to their own silicon, I wonder if we'll see a hardware refresh based on a 7nm AMD Ryzen chip between now and then. The integrated graphics on AMD seem to be relatively performant compared to Intel's, and I can't imagine AMD not having pretty good power characteristics at 7nm.
Have they started shoving out the less savory subreddits? This may be the alternative to that - the brands that advertise don't want their stuff showing up in the wrong places, and you have to be able to say to them no, that's not true... it's either that or do what Tumblr did and aggressively marginalize anything not ad-friendly.

Celery requires the system administrator to ensure that there's only a single scheduler in the cluster at a time; the documentation specifically calls that out. This additional administrative load is not a requirement of TaskBotJS. Because of that recurring jobs requires underlying, distributed-environment infrastructural features I'm not prepared to open source right now. Past that? TaskBotJS is LGPL. If you'd like to write and maintain your own cron-type scheduler, I would be happy to link to it as a plugin, and you can own the difficulty of maintaining it when users come yelling. ;)

That last bit is important, IMO. The best way to keep software maintained is to create a financial incentive for its maintenance. The pro/enterprise feature set is borne out of actual use, and to signal the very strong intent to maintain this as unsurprising software that will be there and be supported for the long haul.

"How does one get out of a Faustian Bargain, anyway?"

Well, Goethes Faust got away pretty well, beeing gods favourite .. and a grammar exploit in the bargain.

(the bargain was, Mephistopheles serves him, until he says some specific words (Verweile doch, du bist so schön) ... and in the end Faust says, now I feel like I could say "Verweile doch..."
Mephistopheles thinks thats it, summons his demons, to prepare for it. Faust dies, beeing old ... but since god was the all powerful judge and Faust his favourite, ... well that was enough to save his soul. And the demons had to go away accomplishing nothing)

So any lessons for the real world?
I don't see any...

edit:
maybe to give more context: Faust made the deal, because he was not content, mainly about the limitations about understanding the world, but also in general. And the words of the bargain mean something like, now I am content. So Mephistos part was to make him content, or even too full of this world. But it is somewhat complicated, beeing Goethe.. but worth a read, at least in german. Don't know, if the translations are good enough, because much of the greatness of the book, is the powerful language and verses, which at least I could never translate adequately.
I once had a conversation with a junior developer who told me that he would rather die than give up Tinder. To this day, I honestly don't think he was joking...

Meh. I've spent enough time in the Netherlands and Israel to know that the quality of life in both countries is, in many ways, way better than here. Socialized medicine and cheap education go a really long way toward making people happy (even if they have less disposable income).
>>The reactivity system will only track changes under certain conditions. Don’t expect to throw anything you wish at it

Haven't used Vue for a while, but if I recall correctly it will only track changes on keys defined in the original data object. Is that what you and the parent are referring to?

GP was arguing that the idea that systemd would refuse to make a change that would benefit running inside containers was ridiculous and required evidence. I have required that evidence -- it is an example of a change in systemd being rejected in favour of fixing it in the container runtime.

Of course we fixed it, and of course you can argue that Lennart was correct (I still think that having SAK protections in a container is nonsensical but that's all water under the bridge). I obviously agree that our /dev/console handling was incorrect. In our defense, /dev/console doesn't actually make much sense in a container since the purpose of /dev/console is to access the physical console not the current PTY -- so anything we put there would still be "wrong" from the standpoint of POSIX. But you can't just ignore /dev/console because then a bunch of programs don't work. I could also go on about how it was also a Go stdlib issue because we'd assumed io.Copy "did the right thing" but it turns out it really doesn't handle any form of interruptions properly. But I'm sure you're not interested in that discussion.

The point is that I agree it was fixed, and I agree that fixing it in the container runtime was overall correct. But that wasn't the point I was making -- it was that there have been examples where systemd has made a change that broke running inside a container and they were not willing to make concessions for container runtimes. Which is what GP was arguing about.

I do have plenty of other examples (cgroups are particularly fruitful for systemd bugs that won't die), but they aren't really related to running inside a container.

[ I'm not a hater of systemd, or Lennart. I actually really like having a declarative service manager. My frustration comes from having to deal with it when developing system tools that don't want to be tightly coupled with it. That's where systemd really starts to get ugly to deal with. ]

What does the 'M' stand for? His first name is Lennart.
Good point.

I'd be totally happy to go back to an 18-24 month update cycle.

Big structural changes every two years and point updates with feature releases (which would normally be in a new version) and bug fixes.

No need to try and wedge everything into an annual release, especially if it's still buggy or unfinished.
A fun BeOS story from the 1999 Be Newsletter:

A Testing Fairy Tale

Two test engineers were in a crunch. The floppy drive they were currently testing would work all day while they ran a variety of stress tests, but the exact same tests would run for only eight hours at night. After a few days of double-checking the hardware, the testing procedure, and the recording devices, they decided to stay the night and watch what happened. For eight hours they stared at the floppy drive and drank espresso. The long dark night slowly turned into day and the sun shone in the window. The angled sunlight triggered the write-protection mechanism, which caused a write failure. A new casing was designed and the problem was solved. Who knew?
>> [T]he greatest country the world has ever seen

Something tells me you have not seen (let alone lived in) that many countries.

If you had, you'd know different societies have different ups and downs. Some countries have more taxes, they also have more perks (e.g. schools and healthcare are not a lottery); some have less money, but also less problems (lower crime rate, low pollution). "Greatest" is meaningless.
There is an, unfortunate, lack of continuity in many offices like that in the military. This is due (as you're aware, this statement is more for others) to the way that personnel get moved within the military. Officers, in particular, as the ones who are typically the "decision makers" for selecting what projects to work on will be in their job for 2-3 years at a time. If they don't have a chief or a civilian staffer who acts as a continuity officer, projects like what you did get forgotten.

"Why are we still using this VB6 thing after 15 years? We should put out a contract and have it done properly." says some colonel or major who doesn't know better. And so it happens, a contract is awarded and it's a mess. I saw it more from the civilian side. Without strong continuity officers, when the military leadership changed over the direction and intent of things is forgotten.

Additionally, as this article points out, the military is set on Waterfall-styled contracts and projects, given to the lowest bidders. Which is why it becomes a mess once a contract is awarded. Waterfall only works under a few circumstances, and I guarantee your lowest bidder won't satisfy them all (expertise with the implementation technology, expertise in the problem domain, expertise with how the system is actually used, ideally a project that's been done 100x before by the same team).
I guess that it may be possible. The plants probably have hard time optimizing for this and just eclipsing or poisoning other plants is better strategy for them.

You would however be also limited with efficiency of the lamps.

OP here. It's tongue-in cheek, in the same way that Mike Judge's "Silicon Valley" is tongue-in-cheek. Please don't hurt me.
PEP-572 has a very good section that talks about how people love to bike-shed about examples. Examples that are too simple are ridiculed with "I wouldn't do it that way", and examples that are too complicated are ridiculed with "that's far too convoluted to be a common use-case".

I think this comment falls along this type of bike-shedding.
