Or they just chose a very common pattern of keeping configs in files instead and haven't gotten around to support environment variables.

Probably not a conspiracy... given that you could fork it, implement this feature, and then PR it back to the main repo...

This seems like a weird reason to adopt microservices. Can't you isolate tests within the same repo using folders?

> Either the court figues out if there is any inheritance and distributes everything left over after settling any debts... Or the inheritor has to figure everything out himself, potentially indebting himself because he didn't know about a debt.

But I still don't get it.

Option one is to get just your remaining inheritance after any debts are paid, with the court doing all the work. Option two is to get everything and then pay the debts yourself.

Option one is zero risk and you get everything you're entitled to. Why would anyone refuse the inheritance instead of taking this option?

Option two has some risk and some potential reward. I can understand not taking that option, but there's no reason at all to not take option 1.

I think that their point is that "Computer Science" does not seem very very interested in the provability of their science (the "Science" part) nor the applicability for general purpose computing (the "Computer" part).
once the stock price hits certain highs, the CEOs get huge bonuses. So, it doesn't really make sense to buy back when the stock is low.
This is all about price to value.

Price < Value

This is very interesting and shows that there is an amazing amount of cheap cash available that is just piling up. Spending that cash on buybacks increases the value of the outstanding stock that existing shareholders have and then supply goes down, price goes up and the stock price goes up.

Dumb investors.
No, it's reasonably well accepted. See [1][2]. The trouble is, there's considerable overlap between the traits needed for becoming a leader and sociopathy.

I'm not sure what exactly you are saying. Fighters rapidly lose fat weeks out from the fight and they don't lose muscle (then they lose water weight, which is irrelevant here).

The idea that you think 'fasting' loses muscle mass is an idea that is not backed up by any evidence. Fasting isn't a diet, it is about when you eat.

Also, you didn't source anything. Don't you think maybe the dozen people replying to you might be less likely to be 'making stuff up?'
I have thought about this and I may actually pursue that, yes. It's good advice.

My main task is troubleshooting, to be honest. I keep getting called into "war rooms" to pinpoint where multiple teams are failing to find a solution. I can't think of a product that's like that (that doesn't involve AI?)

But maybe working on a building block solution (monitoring, backup, etc) as a service might give me a good path. Thanks.
I’m sure the term program synthesis precedes the term genetic programming. Neither of these are new things. This (https://www.sri.com/sites/default/files/uploads/publications...) is from 1971, for example. The earliest reference I can find to genetic programming is in the early 90s.

There are plenty of program synthesis techniques (maybe not this one) that do not use fitness functions and get the program straight from a solver. If they have anything written up, I’m sure the related work section would make the context more clear.

As for the accusation of band wagoning, it seems to come straight from the community that has been doing synthesis for years, not the ones that do GP.

First of all it is the test code, no matter whether it's implemented as a feature flag or in any other way. Test code and test data shall not be mixed with the production one for many well-documented and well-known reasons: security, additional points of failure, additional memory requirements, impact on architecture etc.

>But if you are testing an artifact, why isn’t the artifact testing part of your CI process?

It is and it shall be part of the CI process. Commit gets assigned build number in tag, artifact gets the version and build number in it's name and metadata, deployment to CI environment is performed, tests are executed against specific artifact, so every time you deploy to production you have a proof, that the exact binary that is being deployed has been verified in its production configuration.

Clickbait is not defined as "a headline that is false," its defined as "a headline that makes you want to click."

"PayPal told customer her death breached its rules" is much much "clickable" than "PayPal sent insensitive letter to a dead customer." It makes it sound much more outrageous. That's why it's borderline clickbaity to me. Added to that it didn't define 15.4 (c) of the Paypal Credit agreement. Feel free to disagree, there's no absolutes here, only opinions.

Codewars
Katas & Koans are great for learning. Exploit CodeWars's free resources to learn how to get started.
However, I will never again use CodeWars's commercial interview tests.
I have over 15 years of experience in coding, and taking several interview tests.
Some tests are too easy. Others are hard. Codewars does not challenge you on how well you know coding, but rather on how fast you code.
Unlike human tests, but like other online tests, you are penalized for a slow internet connection or any other interruptions.
If you don't like it, you can always pay money to travel to the HQ of an Arbritrator, which has a known history of favoring corporations.
Your best bet is to complain to your interviewer, and refuse to take the test.

My experience was that I was given 1.5 hours to write 3 programs.
The problem is the wording was terrible, and, like most tests, you will be penalized, if you complain or ask for help.
One question was assigned no points, with no explanation.
One question was a realistic simulation of the real world.
However, it required you to create a web server, create a database, populate it, then create a test harness.
Once you created all that, if you have time left over, you can write the actual code that you would be graded on.
The remaining question was also unclear, and it seemed to skip over critical real world factors.

In summary, you are penalized for taking a real world approach.
You are penalized for avoiding a real world approach.
You are penalized for wasting time on a question that has no points.
On the other hand, it may be simply that I was subjected to a bug, and still penalized.
Since CodeWars solicits no feedback, and clients are happily ignorant, this may be the only means to contact them.

I agree completely.

I think that regardless of whether microservices works for anyone or not, they came about to address a real issue that we still have, but that I’m not sure anyone has fully solved.

I think that microservices are an expression of us trying to get to a solution that enables loose coupling, hard isolation of compute based on categorical functions. We wanted a way to keep Bob from the other team from messing with our components.

I think most organizations really need a mixture of monolithic and microservices. If anyone jumps off the cliff with the attitude that one methodology is right or wrong, they deserve the outcome that they get. A lot of the blogs at the time espoused the benefits without bothering to explain that Microservices were perhaps a crescent wrench and really most of the time we needed a pair of pliers.
It's arrogant to assume that these species are "natural".

Aedes aegypti did not exist at all in Fresno, for example, until 2013.

These species of insects were introduced to these ecosystems. By humans. The diseases (for example, Zika) being spread now are the consequences of us introducing these mosquitoes in the first place.

But of course that’s true. It’s also inconsequntial that most people in the outer party will not join the inner party (or that it’s rare for a US citizen to become President).

That’s perfectly fine as there are way more engineers than VCs. This is only a problem when there is low mobility, like on caste systems.

While it’s impossible for someone to change castes and they are born into it, it is possible for mobility between engineer and VC.

Thus my complaint that the author’s piece isn’t logically sound as a mobile system with inequality isn’t a problem as long as there is efficiency and low barriers to access.

Inequality isn’t bad inherently. It’s bad when corrupt. For example, it’s not bad that 1 out of 1M wins the lotto and now has way more. It’s bad if the lotto is rigged.

But I suppose if the author believes that it’s bad that not everyone gets a trophy, then that should be a different argument. And a different piece. And not incorrectly refer to castes.
+1. I have felt this as well. I personally consider the "Lock" icon as a sign that the article is controversial and then I am extra skeptical about it. Might be a good idea for Wikipedia to highlight controversial articles prominently using some other iconography like big bold text telling that the current article is under rapid contradictory edits, or even highlight parts of the text that have been recently edited multiple times and therefore are likely to be controversial.
Some boards have given CEOs earnings per share based compensation plans, so it’s also a quick way for those to meet their compensation objective. Wise boards don’t structure compensation plans in such a manner, but some do.
> "but you don't get to separate the two in the case of an OS or distribution."

Actually I do get to do that. It's an important distinction because if the software isn't at fault, then a technically competent user can safely use it by merely not being as dumb as the average user. But if the software itself is at fault, then the technically competent user should stay clear of it. Idiots will be idiots no matter the distribution. If it weren't arch, they might be downloading third party RPMs or debs from untrusted sources. Would that be reason for a technically competent person to avoid RHEL or Debian? Of course not.
As someone maintaining a SPA that uses GraphQL, they're not really comparable. Everyone and their dog has a SPA, while GraphQL has been somewhat restricted by the small number of React users who dared to install the first version of Relay.

GraphQL could wither like Backbone and Angular and nobody would really notice or care. An industry-wide shift away from SPAs would be something else entirely.

You miss the point of people saying that "we all make our own luck".

It's not a virus. Rather than being immune, they might have managed to avoid mating with the altered mosquitos (by chance apparently, as there seems to be no perceptible difference) - for now.

Antiretrovirals fight HIV by blocking its multiplication in multiple ways, such that the virus would have to mutate in a few particular ways simultaneously to survive, which is extremely unlikely. Perhaps the mosquitos could be altered similarly.

I wanted to give this a chance but I see we're up from Splunk's 500MB to a mere 2GB, and I have to learn and deploy a completely new product and train everybody else on how to use it as well.

I've got a team of users who are familiar with Splunk, have written code and parsers for Splunk and simply want to use Splunk. I can't get the funding for it though. If Splunk raises their cap to match yours, what is Gravwell's advantage (besides presumably licensing costs)?

The big ones are mostly state sponsored companies. Facebook and Google became huge because they got a lot of money from state agencies. Mostly indirect via front-companies.

With that they could dominate the market with good servers and pay for good programmers. With that they deliver a very good service "for free", while others could hardly get any money.

They also get some money for clicks and advertising, and also have started dominating the advertising market. But the big money is the hidden support from agencies of the government(s).

Keepass' copy&paste/autotype always felt like a hassle to me and also a bit insecure. When I was looking for alternatives for Keepass 2 I discovered the Kee [1] plugin for Firefox which communicates with Keepass via the RPC plugin. It's great and made me stay with Keepass. Login fields are automatically filled reliably without any issues. Registering accounts is easier too: just choose a username, let Kee generate a password, submit the form and then click the button to save the entry - all without having to use the Keepass UI at all.

The high-level was the point because, in the original idea, there was a separation of concerns assumed: The dev writes, in SQL, what the DB should do and the DBA decides how the DB does it.

Of course that assumes there is a competent DBA...
I have autism and dyslexia and I wouldn't change it for the world. That said, I understand autism varies a lot person to person so I can only offer my experience.

For me my problems in life have never been a result of my autism or dyslexia, but a result of how people expect or want me to be.

I won't go into details, but I know I'm pretty smart and I've achieved more than most people I know largely because of my autistic obsession with anything I'm passionate about. However I've also found my professional life to be extremely hard now I'm at a more senior level in my career. I can't communicate well. I hate social interaction. People often think I'm rude because I don't ask how their weekend was or make eye contact. And on occasion I can come across mean and cold without meaning to do so because find it difficult to empathise.

I lost a job a few years back because of my autism and over the course of my career I've been rejected from countless positions because of my poor communication skills or being "a bad culture fit".

I'm not bad at all communication though, I'm fine explaining things with text, diagrams and examples. Plus, I'm a really good developer. But non of that ever seems to matter. Sometimes I wonder if it is even me with the problem, or if it's really that people have a problem with me and how I work.

Who cares if I'm not overly social? I've never minded it. I quite like being non-verbal and obsessive honestly. But I guess I can understand where neurotypicals are coming from to some extent. Sometimes I wish more people were like me too. Sometimes I wish I could treat people who think talking about their weekend or celebrating the birthday of a colleague they dislike is more important than doing something productive. But you know, I also appreciate not everyone is like me, or needs to be just like me to be worth a damn.

Perhaps I'm just venting. I understand some autistic children are completely not functional and need some help. It just upsets me when people think autism needs treating because it's probably the thing I genuinely love the most about myself.
> Has anyone done a thoughtful comparison of PW managers?

I think a valuable comparison would not be of features but of the security, and therefore a person comparing them would need real security expertise. I'd worry about bad information from non-experts. In the past, at least some security experts on HN have recommended 1Password.

All these people storing all their secrets in one place creates an exceptionally valuable target that I expect, IMHO, will attract well-resourced attacks. Find a way to crack Lastpass, and imagine what you have - it's the ultimate breach (and if you are smart, nobody will know).

To be a net gain in security, a password manager needs very effective security for itself. If the user wants something to ease the burden of managing all those exposed passwords, then perhaps features are the issue.

That is the interpretation I’d expect from someone bought in, to only see people and their perspectives along an axis of wealth generation impetus. I’m sorry to disappoint, but also realize I’m probably incapable of explaining it to you, since my perspective is an imaginary component way off of your real number axis.

I’m boxed in a corner. If I explain it one way, you’ll interpret a Luddite sentiment. If I explain it another, you’ll interpret an affinity toward socialism. Yet another, and you’ll conclude I’m mentally challenged. I’m still working on vocalizing my detest for the valley and this audience in a form which is productive as opposed to punitive, so you’ll have to check back with me when I’ve matured that.
