It's easy for me to buy iPhone repair services where I live, despite it being less repairable.
That's fair, but I think some of the reward is knowledge of the ground breaking projects your are working on.

I just find the argument annoying because there are so many other billionaire CEOs they could (correctly) critisize, why drag down the only one bringing electric vehicles, solar cities, and freakin' privatised space? This is something we should be heavily supporting and cheering on
I did post about this in the other thread and folks piled on calling me a conspiracy theorist, but in the letter JCD received from his editor, they said they were shutting down all outside columns.

This is in fact not true -- other columns have continued since then and some other columnists have had the title listed in their author bios changed while continuing to have articles published.
This is also how microcontrollers like the ESP32 do over-the-air updates while keeping a "safe" factory firmware version.
Whereas I disabled Amber alerts but not emergency alerts, and I also did not get the alert from the Orange Volcano of Hate.

Dunno.
I don't have a dog in this fight, but you are being extremely rude.
That's for him to decide, not others. He's done it for years, so I'm confident he's developed ways to manage that workload
Interesting - I've added it to my list, in case I make it out that way. Thanks!

Cider has definitely been increasing the last few years, but even the funkiest wild-fermented ciders don't come close to what you can find in beer. In my experience!
This is really cool. Maybe it's my age but I am slightly out of the loop when it comes to dev's livestreaming. Didn't realize it was a thing.

For some reason, it's reminding me of SOLE (self organized learning environment) classrooms being tried out in the UK. Put a BIG problem on the board. Get a couple kids to sit in front of a SINGLE large screen and work it out. Provide internet access. And the teacher just hangs in the background not teaching, but observing/guiding/keeping things on track. This is taking it to another level with the number of people watching/learning/contributing etc.
I'll second this commenters post, I researched aquaponics extensively and it is expensive to break into if you are trying to make a profit. You can do wonders with very little space but, the time and equipment costs are just as arduous as regular farming at the start. I ended up going back into IT as I just couldn't scale to market before my finances went red. More power to those who can make a go of it, I just wasn't one of them.
I'm surprised to read this whole thread and not see any mention of Irving Welsh. When I studied abroad in Wales, I read Trainspotting, which is written in the Edinburgh flavor of Scots. To an American, it was almost as much effort as reading Spanish.

Speaking of Wales, if my Welsh roommates were talking amongst themselves, their own flavor of English (distinct from Welsh, which they also spoke) was almost completely unintelligible to me. Perhaps less from grammar and vocab as much as an entirely different cadence and very different vowels.

Especially since they presented demonstrably false pretenses in their notice to him as to why he was being let go.

The link above is my response to your comments combined into the sibling thread. Once again, go there and respond.
> My humble view is that whoever starts a RedHat-like service (with support, and SLAs, and enterprise services) on top of Kubernetes, might get the upper hand.

Does Red Hat count as Red Hat-like? Because they've had OpenShift Origin for several years now.
The "solution" is to maintain a pool of open connections.
Going to a bank? That mean't you had to be all in (business registered) and pay high fees.

Stripe did change the way smaller companies did business. But Paypal allowed anyone to accept payments.
They also have a regular alert which nags you to "improve your security settings" if you use 'insecure' IMAP. I'm glad I don't use gmail any more.
I know what the difference between a car and a cigarette is. I'm talking about the consequences of using it.

Nicotine is literally an addiction for a lot of people. They are dependant on it. So taking it away entirely, without an appropriate alternative, is similarly bad as taking cars away entirely.
If that's the intent, it's poorly written.

It's fine to observe that search results pop up a lot of pieces and discussions about 5G health concerns. And those may lead to adoption problems whether they're true or not. But if you're writing a good column, even though it is an opinion piece, you should probably then point out things like: XYZ studies dispute these health effects and that these sort of concerns have been brought up with pretty much every new radio technology.

If you just say there's a bunch of scary information out there (without even pointing to anything specific), you leave the impression that there's likely some truth in all of it.

Dvorak at least was a pretty high profile tech columnist. But he's tended toward a clickbait style even before there were links to click on.
I am aware of Crunchy Data doing PostgreSQL-on-Kubernetes:

Apologies, I've a bad habit of skipping paragraphs in long articles. When I was at the bottom, I even searched for 'gas' (which showed me vegas) tried 'fuel' as well but I couldn't remember if it returned anything on Firefox, or did something wrong, was quite late into the night.
Amen. I'll just add that sometimes part of the blame should also go to the planners who set up intersections with odd angles and obstructed sight lines so that drivers can't see anything until they're already intruding into the roadway.

Related phenomenon: pedestrian crossings and cutouts placed twenty feet down a side street. Yeah, it might be further from the busier street, but it makes it much harder for either party to see each other or recognize each others' intentions. Ultimately quite bad for safety, even for regular pedestrians but especially for runners. No thanks. I'll stay out where I can see them and they can see me and there's no ambiguity about which direction I'm going, even if that means hopping on and off curbs.
That's what I thought too at first --- Java (and .NET) is so easy to decompile that having the original source is not so much of a big deal.
Mainstream media had what was called the “Chinese wall” between the ad business and the newsroom. For a sales guy to even speak with an editor would be highly inappropriate. It wasn’t perfect, but exceptions would have at least violated social and professional norms with rank and file journalism school graduates. Alternative media (like what the corpses of the old mainstream press have become) don’t even pretend to have that sort of discipline. Their funding model is to promote an individual, business, or political agenda, straight up. On this one, I mourn the loss of the traditional press.
Add a metal back (not glass!), a matte screen, and an easily-rootable OS and I'll buy it yesterday.
Interesting idea. iFixIt releases repairability scores for laptops [1] and phones [2].

As an avid tinkerer, it is shocking and disheartening to see the most popular products on both lists with the least scores !

What is the next generation of tinkerers going to muck their teens around ?

It's entirely possible that this not very good column was some sort of final straw and there's some history we don't know leading up to it. The story as told still seems very odd but, of course, we're only hearing one side of it.
Several years ago I remember reading on stack overflow about how someone had managed to rm the ls program on a Linux system. Your anecdote reminded me of the fix. I’ll do some googling and see if I can find it. If I can, I’ll post it here.

Hats off to people like you. You’re what we mere mortals aspire to, and it’s always encouraging to hear that someone else has attained a level of mastery. Makes it seem more achievable!
A cycle messenger in London once told me, if you have to hit the door, aim for the hinge.

Presumably because you'd be launched over the door not into it, and thus protected from traffic in either direction. Perhaps also because the person opening the door might cushion your impact!
>If I can indulge in some self-promotion, I have written mountains of code which implements many of Minecraft's behaviors down to the last detail, which may be a more interesting candidate for study

It is an interesting case study. The code has failed to run for myself and the five other people i handed the project to with different configs. There are no tests that validate the project works. Its certainly work to be proud of, insofar as maybe its worked for some subset of people in the past.

Edit: I was excited to work on this code and spent a healthy amount of time reading through all of it to find great places to contribute. After writing a small pr, mostly a throwaway to test the waters, I was greeted with unmitigated assholery by the main devoper and their irc crew. I kept the logs from an irc conversation i had about the pr as a reminder of how not to act towards developers on projects i work on.

If you're non-American Stripe was indeed 'revolutionary' in a product/market sense. There literally were no good options before Stripe, even here in Canada. Braintree was okay but limited to the US (at least early on, idk now). The other options were absolutely awful in a technical and even often business sense.

But that doesn't mean it 'democratized' anything. If anything it centralized the market merely by being the only good option in a market run by "MBAs" which was in desperate need of real software/design talent.

Nothing wrong with greatest from pure market dominance by delivering real value to customers.

Besides Stripe apparently isn't purely free and open (ie, not holding strong values outside of the purely commercial marketplace) to everyone, when they are declined services to Gab.ai unless they stop 'serving adult content' which is lawyer speak to attack them for allowing unsavoury people to exercise free speech. As bad as some Gab users are I don't think it's the payment processors place to enforce some terms of service or speech policy on their customers. As long as Gab deletes illegal content (which they claim they do) then I dont see why they shouldnt be allowed to run a service with a legitimate free speech policy.
Last time this happened to me - (I dropped my iPhone 5 on a ride and a car subsequently ran over the device) Apple simply quoted me $299 to replace the device.

Also carrier insurance/replacement programs are also good options.
great. now we are on the other side, with the moon landers deniers?
Do you think at some point you might have accumulated enough of them that you'll feel more willing to sell/give away some of them?
Sure, they don't run up against /Arrow's/ impossibility theorem, but Gibbard's 1978 theorem shows that "Any straightforward game form (deterministic or not) is a probability mixture of game forms each of which is either unilateral or duple."

(For an explanation of what that means, see : https://politics.stackexchange.com/a/14245 )

Edit: though, if I had to recommend one, I'd probably either recommend "ranked pairs" or something exotic with a substantial deal of randomness.

Or, really, maybe I'd advocate that the primaries use ranked pairs, and that the general use FPTP (or something very similar) because it is easier to understand the mechanism, so easier for people to trust it / keep results seen as legitimate, and because parties narrow down the options to 2 for the most part anyway, and all the usual systems are the same once it gets down to two candidates (in random ballot voting, it is still different though)
> Beyond that California's politicians unlike Republican controlled states have no interest in preventing people from voting.

It's not like democrats are not above voter suppression. Did we forget what happened to sanders voters in brooklyn not too long ago?

> For instance San Francisco recently began registering non-citizens to vote for the city's school board.

I wouldn't hold SF as an example of good in anything - the wealth disparity, poor housing, it's dirty, corrupt, etc. And giving non-citizens voting rights is absurd. No sane entity would do such a thing. But SF is "special".
I am simply trying, with no small frustration, to keep the discussion in one thread to make it easy to follow.

I'm not the one making threats of physical violence or calling someone a troll for making the same criticism that many others (including the newspaper industry) have made, a criticism that remains unanswered except with disingenuous deflections about "40%" rev share of smaller pies.
All my alerts are on. I regularly get amber alerts, but I got nothing as of yet.
I will totally own that !
Well, the code has been unmaintained for some time now, and only grows more stale (especially considering the .NET ecosystem has been in turmoil during that time).

There are tests, though, but they only focus on the parts which are fragile or complicated:

This is something we’ve heard a lot and are working together with the Kubernetes community on. We’ll have more to announce on this one soon

Full disclosure: I work on EKS at AWS
Most people don't remember the rules of the road, they just adapt to common and intuition practice over years of driving.

In the USA, many or most states have laws stating that drivers must yield to pedestrians at unmarked crosswalks (every intersection is a legal crosswalk), but most drivers don't know that "unmarked crosswalks" exist.
> For serverless technologies to "win" they have to solve the "cold start" problem.

I've said here and elsewhere before that autoscaling is easy to say and hard to do.

We keep looking to autoscalers to divine our economic preferences, which they cannot do for us. What's been missing is the ability to explicitly trade off latency for expense.

The best you can do is to a) attack startup time any how, any way possible, b) react sanely to unexpected traffic changes, c) make reasonable forecasts and d) explicitly tune cost of idleness vs cost of delay vs probability of delay. These help, but the problem will never fully go away.

(Unless you've discovered an escape hatch from either of causality or integral calculus. If you have, please share it with the class.)
I just submitted my vote for N2RJ. ARRL leadership has seemed out of touch for quite some time. They seem more interested in selling wildly over priced books than advancing the interests of the Ham community. Amateur radio may seem like a quaint hobby for old timers but there are a number of newer hybrid operating modes that play nicely with the digital world. Ham's need a strong advocacy voice so that relevant policy decisions don't overlook the needs of amateur operators. Amateur radio is a great way to learn physics and electronics. I was a liberal arts major and now have my Extra class license. What I learned getting there is so much more valuable than the rag chews and 73s. Keep Ham strong!
I've seen far more vitriol, hatred, and organizational politics in a single year of a local dog club, than in twenty years of working professionally. Never underestimate the amount of social force someone can exert, if they have nothing else in their lives to do.
It's a bit like academia. The politics are so vicious because the stakes are so low.
The US government has had this concept for as long as there have been foreign producers of electronics, if not longer. You probably haven’t heard about it, but it has been there.

Companies doing photo masks for chip lithography do exist in the US. Some of them have been bought by international parents. And those international parents jump through plenty of hoops to keep their certification for being able to continue to produce photo masks for classified military projects — only US citizens are allowed to work on those projects, they may need their own clearances, etc....

Don’t think just because SuperMicro may not have been a party to that system doesn’t mean the system in question doesn’t exist.
I read every one of your comments. When you link to something I was supposed to have read before the prior reply from me to which you are responding, it's customary to link to the earlier in thread, or root of subthread -- not to your latest.

As for "dense", you still don't employ "scam" by its meaning, even after citing that meaning -- and you contradict yourself about users' right to block ads and right to donate. If users do not owe publishers anything in lieu of ad blocking, but we help users anonymously route tokens to publishers anyway, who is scammed? Answer directly.

Youd simply buy one and try a bunch up and down the sequence. Serial numbers of captured German tank parts were actually used to estimate how many there are. That story was an application of Bayesian inference, and is used to explain that. However, I didn't understand the argument.
I am all for voter turnout, but chalking it up to millenials being too lazy to register is pretty lame.
For one of my clients, HP had a drive encryption program I had to uninstall for the update to finally go. Drives had never been encrypted, HP was just running it in the background from the start.
"threats of physical violence"?

Oh, you mean my "when I was young" remark? Don't be dense, that is a memory not a threat. On the other hand, if you were in a f2f situation, you'd behave better than you are here. Give it some thought.

40% was not disingenous (we pay 70%, so you seem confused; again). It was to show that Brave users can more than pay for the cost of their ad blocking. When has a "scam" improved revenue to publishers who lost it to users, whom you agree have the right to block ads? Don't bother torturing "scam" further.

Cash wise minecraft is a horrible product - there is a limited audience with limited playtime out there. And you cant milk those people of therhe money with lootboxes, with the likes of minecraft.

Two more minecraft generations and half the gaming-industry is gone.
I have a Thinkpad x140e. It's unusable with Windows 10, but reasonably good enough with Ubuntu MATE.

I don't doubt you at all. This laptop took up took so long to boot with Windows that I'd take the time to make coffee.
Sorry to be holy-wary, but that was outrageous: just watched random pieces of that video until found one where he actually codes, basically vim Python editing.

So I opened somewhere around this moment: https://youtu.be/7Hlb8YX2-W8?t=17039

And, first, he copy-pastes some code, and then spends about a minute figuring if he got tabs converted to spaces, including googling a vim command.

Then he proceeds to make a loop over some collection next to the loop over an adjacent collection. And he makes that stupid mistake of renaming a variable of the loop, but no renaming in the body.

Man, if that's how professional vim users work, this piece of video will be the only proof I will ever need to prevent zealots from even wasting IDE users time to try vim.
"IC equivalent of manager and above"

Managers are not IC's.

"keep a high salary in a lower cost of living area"

Most companies will offer you a lower salary, especially if you tell them that it's a lower cost area.

Sounds like you need to find out the specifics of your company. I can't see how general advice will help you.

It is generally accepted on HN that the easiest tactic to get remote work is to start on-premise and move later though. So your plan makes sense, generally speaking.
You left out "and in person." English sentences don't necessarily follow boolean logic.

And you repeatedly ignore the size of the pie for the revenue share.
The keep-alive behaviour of Lambda is essentially a subsidy. I suspect that AWS have paid a lot of attention to ways to cut it down, or are at least hoping the they can drive down the idling cost without anyone noticing too much of a performance hit.
I don't know based on what you are saying that, but all US cellular operators already told shareholders their billion dollar plans for 5G as far as last year.

Is the author saying that the Python programming language handles this badly, and all other (relevant) programming languages do not?

Or is that that Python's attention to detail means that issues that would be glossed over or hidden using ther languages are brought to the fore and require addressing?
But there are also a ton of people using real or just as good parts to repair their macs. Those people, who can’t afford a non-warranty repair at Apple, will be hurt the most.

It’s especially true in east Asia. Yes, there are plenty of counterfeits, but there are also plenty of legitimate ones too.
If there are tests and the project can still fail to run, is the test suite really good?

Blatant and rude sarcasm: you dont need to answer because a freshman cs student would know the answer.
Don’t Get Fooled Again: The Continuing Necessity of Anti-Communism
The size of the pie for adblocking users is zero. Brave's size is the number of our users who opt into the token economy times their average revenue to publishers. Which is greater than zero.

Now if you complain that it's still not enough, you are being inconsistent vs. your agreement that users have the right to block, which results in zero.

Don't shift the argument to users who never block ads. Those are not Brave users.

P.S. "in person" and "f2f" mean the same thing (face to face).
All of the agencies involved in running the various alerts are part of the executive branch and ultimately report to the WH.
