Assess the product delivery in terms of risks. Look at what's on the roadmap and build a 2x2 matrix of the intended features.

Get some post-its and write down each feature. Organized on the 2x2 with these axes X: "risk/complexity" Y:"desirability" (that's business & customer desirability.)

Setup a meeting with your products owner and others to try and get a good deal of feedback and communication, reorganize the 2x2 matrix during the meeting to build understanding of risks and priorities.

With everything on the table the big risks should be clear and addressable. The product owner will be able to make some changes to the product plan.

Visibility and transparency is key, don't do an ass covering exercise, and act sooner.

Make sure you understand what has been difficult and outside the teams comfort zone, where improvement could be made etc.

Also be aware of the motivations for the product owner and empathize. Build & strengthen that relationship.

Better feedback loops, better clearer/slicing of feature requirements... I could only generalize, but aim to improve communication and even if all goals aren't met it will be a healthier place and contingency will be easier to work on.
An underlying question I have: Is it useful to trust IP-addresses on their range / owner / (distant) past behavior?

I was wondering "why would Google write about this on its AMPProject site?!"

This redirecting thing from Google's own properties just so you can get a slightly better mobile site is really stupid. Please stop doing this. Publishers doing this are going to regret it a few years down the line, just as much as they now regret buying into the "Facebook is a news platform" promise made by Zuckerberg to them - only to now turn around and say they have to pay for ads to show stories to users.
This is so frequently true that people are tempted to make it a strong NEVER. But that is also a mistake.

There are some legitimate cases where you really should be rebuilding.

You may not have seen such a case since they are rare, but they do exist.

A good rule of thumb is to try your absolute best to avoid a rebuild. If at the end of your hard work you still feel defeated and forced to go with the rebuild option, you probably should rebuild.
Also perhaps not obvious ones like map border disagreements.

That's where a lot of them come from.

According to your app, which country is a resident of these places living in:

* Kashmir?

* The Crimean peninsula?

* Jerusalem?

One of these has been the subject of a US Supreme Court case recently.

What's your app's stance on the status of Catalonia? Does your list of countries include Kosovo? What about Transnistria? The Donetsk People's Republic?

Do you have users in Argentina? If so, do you make sure to refer to that island group as "Malvinas" instead of "Falklands"?

I can assure you that none of these examples are regarded as "silly" by the people involved, or by some major governments.
I do not believe in blindness optimism which seems to be the way things work in Silicon Valley. But That doesn't mean you are not going to achieve it, but you have to strategically plan your features / function.

A Project or Product are never really finished. There is always a long tail of things to do or remake. In case of the goal being so far ahead, pick three ( or may be just one depending on teams size, but no more then three ) things / function / product features, that it MUST work, start sprinting towards those goals. Make them sound as easy as possible. Make a deadline that they know they could sprint to. My experience has taught me, may be only 1 out of every 10 or 100 person can see the bigger picture. Human are not very good at broad perspective, that is why you must set small enough goals, that is mentally easy to comprehend, and therefore mentally easy to achieve with hard work, but not impossible, damaging morale.

Most of the time, ( if not all the time ), once you prioritise those goals and reach within 80%, of what looks nearly finished project. This is a good time to talk to direct manager, because your last 20% of project will likely take the same amount of time as your first 80%. The higher management will hopefully, having seen the good enough 80% work, decide on which direction to go next. ( Which is another broader set of view on how to jiggle product / project / business/ operation / expenses priorities. )
> we are the only ones on the planet who can't live in harmony with other species.

This "harmony" is really just interlocking loops of unconstrained growth, followed by running out of resources, and starvation while the food supply regenerates. It only looks pretty if you ain't looking very carefully.

In fact, human beings seem to be the only ones observed with a capability for restraint. We're not very good at practicing it, but we are at least capable of it. Have you seen a pack of animals or plants jointly deciding to voluntarily forgo extra food, so that they don't exceed carrying capacity of the place they live in?

Where is your Kubernetes running? If you're using a managed kubernetes vendor you might as well use their managed postgres offering if they have one.

From my experience, if you're running a MVP/toy-app type setup with a single instance of postgres with a volume mount, things work absolutely fine and are very easy to get going with. But anything serious needs consideration.

Also, depends on your team structure. Do you already have experienced DBAs that managed your postgres setup? Are they willing to learn what it takes to run a kubernetes operator? Will you benefit from running it on Kubernetes or is that compute/memory/disk resource reserved anyway?
And that's why Google's recruiting has the extra step of a hiring committee which didn't meet the candidate. Interviewers fill out interview feedback based on how their interview went with the candidate, and there's guidelines to try to reduce bias (no gendered pronouns in feedback, the candidate's code is included as-is in the feedback, etc) and the committee makes the final decision based on the feedback.

Sure, what is included can still be slightly biased, but if you're talking about non-technical things at the beginning or end, it won't really make it into the technical interview feedback, and probably will have little to no effect on the committee's decision. At the end of the day, the problems you're asked have optimal solutions and your code will either work or it won't.

I wrote an extensive comment as to why I consider the capitalist funding model for news to be suboptimal and not resilient in the face of the Internet. I described an alternative in terms of collaborative efforts like wikinews, user-submitted content, and fact checking and analysis as a community effort. It tried to be as detailed and helpful as possible in a reasonable space.

It was downvoted (fine) and then flagged and killed. Also replies to it that agreed with it were flagged even more and killed.

My question is - why was it flagged? Can anyone explain? Is it because it suggested a non-capitalist approach to news? Or because it made a broader point? I really think the “flag” feature should require an explanation.

Whatever you do, DO NOT ADD new team members to an already delayed project. It will delay it further. Break down the project into simpler tasks that can be assigned to a team member and be tracked. Attach strict responsibility of task to team member. And last and most important, talk to your Management about timelines. Make it very upfront that it will take X number of days and no lesser.
Quite an interesting read. I don't see how growth rate can continue without capital investment and the last research I saw showed AWS with much more investment.

That said, I do see solid Azure growth. Once people get O365, Azure AD follows and then it's architecturally easier to use other Azure services.
Have you seen wikinews? Their selection of topics and reporting may be much broader than what you are used to on your local news channel. If you even watch that.
My point was just that anybody using C++ now shouldn't treat language-feature advice from 20+ years ago as anything particularly relevant. It's outdated and obsolete and should be treated as such. Sure if you're working on an obsolete codebase in bare-bones maintenance mode then you're kinda stuck, but most of us aren't.

That aside yes, you totally can just update to a newer version of the language. If you are trying to maintain C++ ABI stability then your life is harder, yes, but it's no harder than it already is when you just upgrade compilers or deal with people building with other compilers (and most everyone ships C ABIs anyway to avoid this entire category of problems - extern "C" still works great in C++17). But you are still completely free to use newer features in the implementation itself which doesn't impact API or ABI stability in the slightest.

Often those people are high up enough that they are not going anywhere.

For example an executive/management team that over-commits the organisation and creates a culture of rewarding technical debt and punishing maintainers.

Rather than fixing these issues they will continually search for a super hero employee who is going to come in on a white horse on monday and fix it all up in two weeks.

I find it extremely interesting tha finance is highlighted as a place where predictive methods are used, because almost all scientific research on financial predictions show that they don’t actually work.

World wide 22 million people work with financial analytics, but the work they do, empirically fails to beat a set of monkeys throwing darts at a wall.

Typically when people are presented with this they defend the industry with things like the weather services, which is actually one of the very few fields that are proven to do predictions right, 9 in 10 times it’ll rain on a day the weatherman tells you.

I mention weather, because it’s strangely missing from the paper.

What value does predictive models have, when they don’t work? And why is the paper looking at sectors, that may be using predictive models yes, but are also sectors that provable fail at predictions?

Europe underspending was a logical response to the ridiculous overspending of the US. And most of that money isn't actually spend on anything that keeps anyone safe.

We make more milk than anyone needs and then we subsidize it and throw half of it out. You guys make more tanks than anyone ever needs. You subsizide it and it collects either dust or you sell it to a small town police station for crowd control.

The world really didn't need us spending more money on war. Instead we spend our money on education for example. The shortage of highly skilled individuals in the west is filled by Europe.

None of this was ever a deal. We just do our part. Do what America lacks. And investing in murder machinery just isn't something our team needed.

But that's the thing, right? We are not one team anymore. You have to admit: that is what changed. I don't have an opinion about Swiss cheese.
I don't follow regularly anything except the HN homepage. However there are many blogs with their own domain that are actually Medium and they get linked to HN every now and then.

Gee, I dunno....I have a few books on my bookshelf from that mechanical engineering degree I did that are either largely or entirely about steel. I can't help but feel that this "entire" history might omit a few details, but it is a good start.
Okay, of course, I didn't mean to suggest that I'm a robot - I meant that"Googleyness" is not a conscious criterion. I'm sure charisma etc. can influence me a bit. But when I've asked the same question 50 times, and I have to write up feedback in a structured way (I'll be vague about this to play it safe with my employer, though it's nothing exciting or complicated), there's only a quite limited amount of wiggle room. I certainly wouldn't advise a candidate to optimize for rapport over whiteboard coding or algorithms. Like I said, I've interviewed candidates with whom I had good rapport - with whom I'd love to have a beer - but I still couldn't write strong feedback for them.

I don't think your point is totally off base, I just think you stated it too strongly in your previous comment.
Yes because Sybil attacks are trivial to fix right
For me, the thing that triggers my phone usage for the most part is notifications. So, I ended up disabling all of them except for a few people I need to be able to hear from (family) and slack messages from my work org. I look at my phone little enough that my OnePlus 3 will last two days.

Now, the most anoying thing about this approach is when apps don't want you to disable notifications and constantly complain about it. Facebook Messenger for instance. You have a banner always visible in the list of chats that says "notifications are off, tap here to enable.". I KNOW they are off, I did it on purpose, and there's no way of getting rid of it.
Your definition of restraint seems based on that one example.

What about when my cat restrains from eating all of its treats at once? Or the restraint any animal takes through a farming process like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphid#Ant_mutualism?

Agreed. Every hunt a lion does imposes fatal risk of its own. The lion could break its leg running and falling in some hole. It could break its teeth getting kicked in the face by the impala. Any of that even could cause it to not be able to hunt any more, and lose its status in the herd.

A smart lion wouldn't want to risk itself like that just for a meal.
How many smart lions would kill every impala and then wonder if they can switch to grass? :)
Farming is after all pretty sustainable. But how about the things that aren't? We're over-exploiting basically every limited resource we have. Ironically we kind of ignore the unlimited ones, like wind, solar, etc.

We're cutting down forests like there's no tomorrow and they literally make our oxygen. And worse, sometimes this destruction is totally gratuitous and avoidable. Save for those who really need a couple more millions of $ to "survive".
This is how a title like this fails to make impact. Whether it's information theory, semiotics or grammatology, language is soon reduced to the merest coding of information, implicit or explicit, as any medium of sense (or non-sense). I could argue an algorithm is, by virtue of its operation, a language exchange. The universe too.

One should perhaps ask if there is something akin to grammatical structures in this system of roots and fungi.
I tried living in Chicago with a car and I had my parents drive it back home 9mo later after having never used it past the first 30 days.

Chicago compared to anything not east coast is a life changing experience in terms of transit.

Yes, it's getting harder and more expensive. When I first moved to Chicago in 2004 though, it was cheap ($1100/mo for a 2BR apartment) to live a few stops from the loop off the blue line. That is rapidly changing, but still plenty of cheap transit-friendly locations if you're not super picky.
Learning English: They kill out of need, out of seems to me more like without. They kill without need. In Spanish we should say they kill because of need. How "out of" became because?

> Ultimately I ended up with a complete database of every "interesting" starting position.

That's a nice thing to strive for. I love puzzle games, but I have come to realize there's a big difference in how different apps generate their games. For instance, Simon Tatham's Puzzle Collection is mostly very good. But for the "Loopy" game, I have liked the variants from the app "Slitherlink" more. Same game, but the challenges presented makes the difference.
I much prefer and find it far easier to work when alone. I'd like to work from home more for this reason but have resigned to just putting in earphones to try block out the rest of the office. I definitely hope to find a remote job in the near future though.
Your argument doesn't seem to disagree with mine - I said wages aren't growing, you suggested a (quite plausible) explanation as to why.
Thank you for the explanation. Those are valid and understandable points.

I'm however kind of worried that the comments are sampled. I'm sure there are tools out there that will find duplicates, cluster similar comments together, etc

In my opinion we (as world citizen) should find a way to organize millions of comments rather than building barriers. Twitter probably already does it to some extend, it should be technologically accessible today.

Trying to deny the access to bots on the palteform can't hurt, but that's a temporary patch to the real problem of opinion aggregation.

Is there a complete dataset of the past comments freely downloadable? Some civic data scientist and dev may look at it to try new solution for comments aggregation

Edit : so, there are also works on comments aggregation. Even a Kaggle : https://www.kaggle.com/jeffkao/proc_17_108_unique_comments_t... and https://github.com/sajacy/fcc-ecfs-scrape

Immediate solution would be to restrict comments, but new methods of comment aggregation maybe used in the future

Well, your cat will also likely be very cruel if it ever caches a mouse or a bird, so I'll raise you that for harmony :). And I'm a cat owner. RE ants, I'm not a biologist so I won't speculate how exactly that relationship came to be, but it doesn't seem to me that there was any meeting of minds involved - I would guess evolutionary feedback loops again.

I made a pretty generalized argument, but the point is, what we observe as harmony in nature - the balance between predator and prey, the various species of animals and plants (and bacteria and viruses) living next to each other - is a dynamic process that involves lots of blood, death and starvation. The order in nature isn't negotiated - it's an aggregate of countless number of conflicts.

Related, recently on HN, "Trillions of Viruses Fall from the Sky Each Day": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16839636. The money quote from the article is mentioned here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16840575.

"One study estimated that viruses in the ocean cause a trillion trillion infections every second, destroying some 20 percent of all bacterial cells in the sea daily."

That's nature's harmony at work.
