Sometimes I wonder if people actually believe this, because it sounds more like nobody should read anything on the web that is monetized with a subscriber or ad-based business model.

Not even sure how newspapers would be able to figure out that all those readers they are not seeing is because they don’t take micropayments.
The Go release post (https://objectbox.io/go-objectbox-golang/) has some numbers. "On a i7-8850H CPU, ObjectBox consistently processes over 1.5 million CRUD operations per second with 4.4 million object reads per second."
The previous flight had PIC stick shaker activation for the entire flight.
PIC gave control to SIC. PIC realized the trim would stop moving with the STAB TRIM switches to CUTOUT.

You HAVE a different Bay Bridge. It cost us $8 billion. You damn well had better like it.

When I worked on this I used this article as a reference: https://serverless.com/blog/serverless-python-packaging/ and also ended up with a huge image. What that article didn't mention is that the virtual environment folder should be excluded in the serverless config file, as the runtime is provided by boto3. So adding:

package:
exclude:

would reduce the size considerably (to 50 MB in my case)

So, I listened to some of the other linked tracks, and they're much better than the Bohemian Rhapsody one, although they still just sound like someone discovered the pan control. The virtual barbershop was cool, but that's specifically because they recorded it with the proper equipment.
Yea, there's at least two in there already.
In my home office I have two sets of stereo speakers - front and back. A kind of pseudo-surround sound but it's just two banks of stereo. The "8D Audio" (terrible name imo) doesn't sound too bad in that kind of set up because you're already immersed in the sound in a way that's more natural/forgiving than having headphones on. However even in that situation I don't feel it adds anything aside a massive dose of novelty so I only managed 2 demo songs before switching back to regularly mastered tracks.
Uh yeah, that's pretty bad. It would make more sense if you could get/extract the individual instruments and voice tracks and then "place" them in various locations of 3D space. But then if the location doesn't change I guess it'll just sound like a new mix and that's quite mundane.

But then I don't get ASMR videos either (I find them rather unpleasant and a bit creepy usually) so I suppose I'm a bit of a snob.
It is in our case. This is a service which is very seasonal, so it may be used during a couple of days each month only. Having a bunch of instances mostly idle would definitely be more expensive

Frequently projects are super-secret to begin with, even from legal, privacy etc. That's because they're small projects that are far in the future, but very secret.

Googles TPU designs would be an example. Google didn't want competitors finding out what they were up to.

As the launch date of the product gets closer and closer, restrictions relax. The product will still need to pass legal, privacy, security, management etc. review, but can do that in the few weeks before launch.

The risk of doing all those reviews late is that if they don't pass, major rework might be necessary. The risk of doing the reviews early is leaks are more likley, but also the project might get caught up in political battles between managers, or might get severe scope creep (you can't design your project without it supporting XYZ!).

>If google knows that someone else has created such things (as they must have after said visit), the only responsible thing to do is not file a patent, regardless of if they independently worked on it. //

A job interview is not a public disclosure and so doesn't count as prior art. So novelty is not affected.

However, the applicant must derive rights (employment, assignment) from the inventor in order to apply for a patent.

In UK IIRC S.13 of the Patents Act allows an inventor to file to be named as the inventor (or co-inventor) and for the patent to be reassigned accordingly.

Of course taking Google to court is going to be a hard slog.
This should come with a big warning that it applies to people's current moods rather than having them in a fixed personality.

There are extreme cases where someone is always an "Extreme Overestimator" but those are rare. People will often shift between all of this made up classifications depending on the circumstances, their goals, their past experiences, etc.

It seems to be a nice tool to raise awareness for these potential states of mind but I wouldn't use it as an objective assessment of other people.
Hmmm...I don't really share the same opinions about JIRA. Complex teams with a lot of stake holders and JIRA was light years better than what was used before. Maybe you just have super simple needs? I also don't see at all what's so complicated about using the tool, and my org has some super complicated customized workflows to get a ticket to flow efficiently through all facets of the org. Also, even on our smaller teams, that have simple processes right now, people can open up and create a ticket easily with most of the effort in filling out the description?

Even more concerning is that you state your devs would have negative morale by being forced to use this tool? You must have bigger issues?
I agree. When you’re seeking to characterize unpleasant people you work with as “the dictator” or “the diva”, maybe you should look in the mirror and see “the reductionist” and try empathizing with people who anger you and treating them like human beings for a minute first. What feedback would they say about you?
The following clip is fictional, but the exact same thing does happen in data entry IRL, even as you are reading this.

Bam, you now have a government-assigned name. How come you didn't use it before?

( For a very brief period, I was known to the US authorities under a slightly different name than what was on my other ID cards, just because a data entry clerk has decided that my family name is a typo of a similar, Spanish-sounding name, and "corrected" it for me. Fortunately I noticed and had a fix applied before the error propagated; I was well aware that sooner or later someone would use your line, i.e. "that's dumb as hell. You have one name and that's the one on your id card"; that assumption would have been false, and would have me gotten deported on the account of invalid visa.

Same thing, global corporation a few years later: "yeah, the surname matches in first five characters, let's link this schmuck's ID card with an old account of somebody who previously worked for us in a completely different country and capacity." A few hours later: "What exactly are you trying to access here, your credentials are for Marketing in Ireland, not IT here!!!"

In other words: which ID card?

Documentation is a catch 22. We love having it, but it is a beast of burden create. We also feel the pressure from management or self imposed deadlines to get something done. So documentation is the first thing to slip.

You also can’t document everything. Well not at first. You always have gaps and most times they are filled when some needs something and it is not there.

Which then highlights the biggest issue, you have to maintain it. So since there is that constraint and burden, the sentiment is why have it. The source code should be self documenting. Yadda yadda
P.S. I reject the assertion that being concerned about privacy is some kind of "weird obsession/hobby". It is, or was rather, the default state of life to not be watched constantly not long ago. This new thing of having to fight for basic privacy is the alien thing. You aren't obligated to think about it 24/7, and kudos to you (or something) for going and having fun while not worrying about it. But make no mistake, society has been radically altered while you were sleeping.

Containers need curating. You could in theory do that yourself, but you probably don't know how in practice (most users) or don't want to (most remaining users). These pre-made containers are curated by their developer so they do all that work once.

I'm someone with ADHD and I've had it diagnosed and medicated since I was around 10.

Medication is only half the battle. It takes the edge off, but it's not a cure-all.

For me, therapy was by far the most impactful thing in my life. I learned how to externalize things so my forgetfulness or distractions don't cause them to be forgotten, I learned how adhering to a strict schedule can be extremely beneficial for me, and I learned that the "superhuman" state you talk about isn't actually a good thing to be in (it's more of a "manic" state when I really looked at it. I feel superhuman at the time, but when I go back and look at what I actually accomplished, it's often I got sucked down a rabbit hole that wasn't actually on task), and that I could almost "trick" myself into getting into a good amount of focus (not hyperfocus, and not constantly-distracted) with a combination of all of it.

It's taken years, and the medication is still a very integral part of it, but it's only part. And every year I feel like I get better at managing it.
This is a young generation who grew up hearing cellphone speakers, trashy computer speakers placed close together (because the manufacturer thought 3' wire was cheap enough), and earbuds that deliver sound but fail to isolate environment noise, so the brain is assaulted with near-mono information. These people have never experienced true stereo: wide separation. So flanging has been rediscovered and is considered amazing, just as when it was applied to guitar signals in the '70s.

I can totally understand this, and it seems that a lot of the blog posts that make it to the top of HN are in some way self promoting the writer's work (be it music, IT consulting, their web-product, their music, etc).

Right, but that's the output end of it. What about the input end? Developers are also users of libraries and frameworks. My question is perhaps more about why poorly documented frameworks end up in production systems than why people don't write documentation (we mostly know the answer to this already).
Portuguese-origin names can be a bit ridiculous in this sense as well. Famously around here, the first emperor of Brazil was named "Pedro de Alcântara Francisco António João Carlos Xavier de Paula Miguel Rafael Joaquim José Gonzaga Pascoal Cipriano Serafim" [1].

>"Oh, I need a vector of maps from a pair of Foo to a set of Bar"

This is a fun example since you can do that in Go now, as it comes with a generic vector (essentially) and map :D

I think that was the design decision, 95% of generics use cases are covered by having growable arrays and maps, so why clutter the language with generics.

I like generics, I think most people who dislike them are coming from C++ templates, which has downsides that don't exist in newer generics systems (such as in C# or F#)
Hmm, being aware that you're infringing a patent, and continuing to do it anyway, is of course bad legally speaking.

But inventors not using parent literature is catastrophically bad. So many applications are repeated, in some fields the same thing is "invented" over and over because people don't even makea cursory attempt to understand the technology in the field vs the products available.

Being unaware of infringement, but not by willful negligence, is actually a defence against an award of damages in the UK. Precisely to protect this fundamental tier of the patent system.

If people can't use the disclosures then the system serves virtually no purpose.
But...drug companies...

"I don't have it, so nobody will have it"
> for any bigger company you do not even know how many shares are there

Companies know exactly how many shares are at any given moment. The concept you are looking for is called "outstanding shares".

> pricing of privately held companies is set by last funding round so you can say it's taken out of the thin air ;>

Read the Uber and Softbank example. It is a good one why funding round doesn't tell you the price.

And, funding is not a simple - I gave you $X because the company should be worth $Y. Things can get complicated quickly. Deal can be worth $X because the investor got "preferential shares" which means non-preferred shares are worth less than what you think. This cannot be coded into a smart contract and will still cause information asymmetry.

> also Ethereum VM is much simpler to learn than commercial law which you (probably) also do not know

That is your opinion. Ask someone who works in finance and they will tell you that learning law is simpler than the VM.

In any case,

> also smart contracts do not solve malicious intentions of programmers and business owners

To put it another way, if people knowingly want a complicated cap table, they can write a complex decentralized contract?

So, what is the point of this again?
No reason it can’t be multicausal, or that the actual reasons and the intellectual window dressing can’t be utterly at odds.

The thing with binaural is that the listener isn't "safe": the singer can go sing very near one's ear, violating expectations of personal space. So there might be rejection when used unfairly.

AI-Powered Social Media Marketing: A New Formula for Success in 2019 and Beyond
> it's strange to indicate that one is learning a language to participate in a market which is a subset of all social interactions.

Is it really? I'm sure it's strange to you - as a native English speaker, there is no language that would offer you significant new opportunities.

However I've never met a Czech person who doesn't learn English because of the market (academic/job/business opportunities) - as I said, this purpose is frequently highlighted from the youngest age (I was 4 when I was first told I need to learn English because of my future job). Also consider that until 1989 our borders were closed - meaning WE couldn't travel. It has became perfectly normal during the past 90 years to participate socially only within our own culture (and language).
That rule tells you how likely you are to see one thing given N observations, but what we don't know is how many things there are.

What is 'best' if not ideological?
I enjoyed the list and examples but I feel the hypothesis in the introduction is flawed.

All anecdata, but I expect those of us who read these sorts of lists will likely understand them quickly without needing examples. There's a large number of developers that are not reading software blogs and lists and are not applying much thought to their programs beyond "how do I meet the minimum requirements put forth in this user story". As long as those sorts of developer continue to be prevalent it's partly on the business to specify these requirements explicitly.

Tragically I don't see this changing any time soon.

if there was something like anonymous payments (cryptocoin-based maybe?) then it would be possible without any tracking.

I would like this approach.

Third party apps would soon appear to detect these 'extra' participants in conversations - after all, your device has to know about every party in a chat to be able to encrypt the messages for all of them.

When a user can run a third party app and see if they are being watched or not, that gives the government a significant risk of being 'spotted'. Thats probably enough risk that they decide to use the technique on very few people.

It could backfire though if the government decides to add themselves to everyones conversations, users use the third party app and see they are being spied on, but the press and public aren't interested enough to demand a stop to it.
