Open dev tools in any major web platform like Facebook and you'll have your answer. The DOM of many major sites is increasingly less readable to humans.

Watch any consecutive 10 minutes of that, and let me know if that seems like it doesn't hurt animals. The evidence that industrial scale animal farming is harmful to animals is overwhelming. There should really be no debate about that fact at this point.

There is an incentive to raise them quick, raise them huge, and move them along the whole process as quickly as possible. Those things are generally not conducive with providing a humane life for them.

I agree the ideal killing is instantaneous, but the killing moment is not the only source of pain, and the ideal killing may not be very common. Sometimes we can't even kill humans quickly and painlessly, for example with the several botched lethal injections that took place a few years ago.

> and here's Firefox, Thunderbird, solitaire, and how to turn it off, they were good.

This is a core point. We've reached the point that for common users, the OS doesn't matter anymore. Browser, video player, image viewer, word processor... BOOM! Done!

I think this is why there' such a push toward cloud-based subscription services because OSes (a decade from now?) will be the modern equivalent of a locked-down dumb terminal.

It's part of the reason, I'm convinced, that Microsoft went Chromium. Even the browser doesn't matter. It's just a face... a front-end to a search engine, subscriber-based online apps and targeted tracking.
Social interaction and co-habitation is not a zero-sum game. I'm sure we're both working from our own personal experience here, but for me I've always found living with a room-mate or significant other to be a net positive for both parties. It's easier to cook healthy home meals for two then one, both in terms of purchasing/portioning and the ability to split up or alternate the work. It's easier to not skip workouts or social events when you hold each other accountable for them. The mental and emotional stimulation that comes from having someone else to talk to and do things with rather than passively consuming mass media alone.

Sure, it's possible for someone with bad personal habits to be a negative influence on someone who struggles to maintain their own good habits, but two people with generally good habits can easily create positive feedback that allows them both to improve.

One reason to use containers over VMs is that building, updating and extending containers is far easier and more maintainable than full virtual machines.

Containers give you the ability to layer the pieces you need on top of each other, so you are only responsible for the parts that you maintain. No need to rebuild an entire VM image every time one piece of the stack is updated.

Distribution of containers is also far more efficient than full virtual machines (especially important in a highly distributed environment).

Expel a fish? Sure. Expel a fish even if it kills the fish? Still, sure.

Expel a human even if it kills the human? That's a tougher sell. And that's always been the problem. Yell as much as you want about "a woman's right to her own body", but there's something there besides her body, something that is 1) still genetically human, 2) genetically different from the mother, and 3) will die if expelled by the methods used. It's not just the woman's body.

You could hack around this by creating two auto-scaling groups with different instance types and then have them follow the same metric such that the small group goes to 0 and the larger one spins up. Not a great solution but better than nothing.

Wells Fargo customers must be terrified that their money is going to be gone when the service finally comes back. This downtime is obviously to prevent a bank rush while the leadership leaves the country with millions in customer funds.

Oh wait...
An integrated developer experience from top to bottom, just like using Kits on macOS/iOS, Frameworks on Android, .NET on Windows.

Not something where each computer is a special snowflake with a developer fragmented experience about which libraries are even available on the system, and lack of integrated tooling, forcing the trend of just bundling a web browser with the application.

Note that I included "desktop oriented OSes" on the same group as Be.

As for systemd, the very fact that Linux is late to the party of commercial UNIXes init replacements says it all, in terms of being a need that a large majority actually wants.

Senior ICs get heavy leverage out of so-called soft skills and should feel free to include material successes with respect to them on their resumes and sales pitches. e.g. Who / how many folks did you mentor, what technical directions were taken as a function of your suasion and what were the business results achieved thereby, what things does your company do now automatically because you process-itized them where previously they were done by heroic efforts of ICs or forgotten, who/how many joined the company out of opportunity to work with you, etc.

Micro-tip: "senior IC" [0] is a better branding than "mid-level."

[0] IC = individual contributor, which is large-company speak for "folks who don't manage anyone." A majority of one's contribution to the company comes from doing The Work but an increasing portion comes from influence/strategic direction/mentoring/etc as moves up ladder and starts impacting operations outside of things one directly writes code for.

P.S. Above also works for performance reviews.
Uber Movement travel times data is now public
You can, and there's nothing wrong with it if that's what you need to do (using word/google docs).

That's not the point of the author though. She's saying compared to frameworks like React and Angular, making a web page in HTML/CSS is a lot easier.

The subsequent point being, once someone has taken a day to learn HTML/CSS this way, it acts as an entry point to get into more complicated stuff (i.e. js frameworks, or backend coding, etc.) and become a web developer.

You can use word or docs to create a static document. Sometimes that's all you need to do. Then you're done. It doesn't make you want to get into web development because of having done that. (sometimes, maybe, if you're interested enough afterwards.)

Nowadays the industry wants React devs. If you're an outsider, you have to very intentionally put yourself through bootcamps so you can get hired. React is not easy to learn. It's not easy even if you have a computer science background (but never done web dev). Just "picking up React" as an outsider is nearly impossible.
Not specifically a symptom of caps! Even in a billing structure that has a fixed cost per unit of data transferred, regardless of usage (thus no cliff-like data caps), a zero rating exemption can still influence user behavior in anti-competitive ways.

It's analogous to product dumping.

There is a vast difference between short term and long term investing.

Short term investing is cutthroat competition to take advantages of the slight gap between the market and pure unpredictable behaviors.

Long term investing is buying a portion of future profits. There is still uncertainty but much less especially for properly researched and diversified portfolios.

Of course you shouldn't make major financial decisions based on what you read from internet strangers, do your own research.

I guess I'm not sure exactly what her point is, or who she's mad at exactly. If there are vanishing entry points, it's what the market is demanding: more complex applications that look and feel like the big players. Single page checkout flows. Client side form validation. Who wants to have to post a form, wait for the page to reload to see that you've missed a required field?

Not sure who is the "we" that she's referring to here. Nobody is actively "making it" anything, it is just the changes in people's and companies' expectations as technology develops.
> “It’s paradoxical that the more we live in concentrated populations in big cities, the more people are living alone” said the lead author, Dr. Magnus T. Jensen

How is that in any way paradoxical? High density living causes people to subconsciously value individual connections less as they are surrounded by people in their day to day lives. This causes them to seek out alone time because their bodies are fatigued from the constant interaction. And causes them to have less social energy to devote to the people close to them.

High density living performs the same trick on the brain that social media does. It fools a persons mind into thinking they are not alone, but in reality they are actually spending all of that time without individual close human connection. In reality they are spending all of their time alone. Along with that comes all physiological aspects of that constant alone time. Things like depression and general lack of emotional depth that we know has a significant effect on life expectancy.

> You don't need 10k dependencies for a brochure site. Things like Wordpress or Squarespace should be more than enough.

I agree but say you want to create a simple site for something like a restaurant. You read all of the advice saying to use create-react-app and now you have 37,646 dependencies. That gives you a lot of tools but many of them are there to reduce the downsides to having that much complexity in the first place. It's certainly not a simple good-bad call but I do think it's right to ask about barriers to entry and whether we're entirely comfortable with the trade-offs.
A couples factors lead to this point:

1) Bootcamps teachers. From what I've seen, they are mostly React/js developers making living by things around that, books, courses. And most frontend technologies that are popular because big corps.

2) Big corp and developer mindset. Big corps have money and it's a big factor when developers pick up technology.

3) Javascript, the most low-barrier-to-entry and terrible at long term (They like the term "modern" so much)

Therefore, javascript ecosystem spreads like virus to the point it's eating HTML and CSS too. Imagine the virus was for improving HTML (things like <details> <summary> <datalist> free autocomplete, are powerful, interactive with zero cost) .. unfortunately no one cares anymore so they stay half-ass

Even myself now building a new app, I cannot bear "the platform" and pick compile-to-js lang for highly interactive widgets.
I wonder how such a policy isn't abused. Do you need to provide some kind of proof for your entrepreneurship? What's to stop me from just taking the occasional 6-month sabbatical to start a travel blog and travel the world? I'd love to be able to save up for 6 months of leave knowing I have a guaranteed job to come back to.

Also, what sort of employer benefits are provided during these periods? I'm assuming Sweden has socialized medicine so employers aren't on the hook, but that'd be a major reason why it couldn't work in the US.
Not sure what apps you are talking about. The modern web loads immediately, then slowly snaps in user controls and buttons. Instead of pressing something and having an immediate response, now you press a button and if you are lucky, the lazy javascript developer who wrote it remembered to add a loading symbol. And you are usually not lucky.
Traders and bankers demand high salaries. The ironic part about the AI jobs scare is that the low hanging fruit are occupations that are high salary (so, high ROI on elimination) matched with environments with low "articulation" to implement decisions (i.e. getting info and acting on it doesn't require developing a physical robots or automated cars or other high-capital infrastructure, data in -> decision -> data out is ideal)
> Having said that, you cannot write web-applications in just HTML/CSS. You can create very nice looking websites, but not web-applications with any sort of complexity.

Your comment basically sums up my feelings exactly even though I agreed with the intent and principle of the article. At the end of the day my HTML/CSS skills alone won't put food on my table. The brochure site market is basically eroded away by squarespace / wix / facebook and whatever else.
Now that you mention it, I agree, and don't recall having this discomfort in the past. I find it significantly less uncomfortable to read if I disable the custom font (Avenir Light).
It’s still from a UI/UX perspective needlessly complicated. I wish they would make things a bit more obvious.
Is there an issue with congestion into major airports like New York and London with more smaller planes instead of fewer larger planes? An A380 type plane holds about 3x the number of people as the mid-sized ones right? Fewer takeoffs and landings would be another benefit.
"Pointless to continue", I would assume. I've been in looong debates that end up being tied to the meaning of a word. Our worldviews often shape the way we use and apply language. For example, how one defines "type" may ultimately pivot on how a given person processes categories in their own mind. I've probably spent a novel's worth of text in online debates about "type".
Thanks Tanin!
“And it's the whole industry, from sysadmin level, through ML to front end dev. You sit down for 2 years, boom, you're so outdated, it hurts.”
Whole industry is bit of an exaggeration. I’m implementing features to a decades old product and a new tech stack that grows on it’s side. QR decomposition and a bit of linear algebra never go out of style.

The hype cycle is just a gimmick. You don’t need the latest hotness for it’s own sake. Business users pay for solid products that deliver added value even though they are not utilizing the latest buzzword.

I would recommend R-ing the TFA:

>"One solution would be to use standard chip-making techniques to build all 40 GPUs on the same silicon wafer and add interconnects between them. But that’s the philosophy that killed Amdahl’s attempt in the 1980s. There is always the chance of a defect when you’re making a chip, and the likelihood of there being a defect increases with the size of the chip. If your chip is the size of a dinner plate, you’re almost guaranteed to have a system-killing flaw somewhere on it.

So it makes more sense to start with normal-sized GPU chips that have already passed quality tests and find a technology to better connect them. The team believes they have that in a technology called silicon interconnect fabric (SiIF). SiIF replaces the circuit board with silicon, so there is no mechanical mismatch between the chip and the board and therefore no need for a chip package."

We’ve been using SSM parameter store to store our secrets (as secure strings). To manage access in a more granular manner we use a namespace approach where the parameters are prefixed with the service or API they’re attached to, or “global” if they’re meant for everyone. Each service has read rights for <service>-* and global-* parameters. We use a python library called SSM-cache to cache values locally and avoid the cost of a look-up each time.

I’ve recently seen secret manager and I first thought it was a rebranding of SSM PS. A quick google search seems to indicate that this is more or less the case at the moment, but the service will probably pick up new features as it matures.
Another thought along those lines, is that men tend to try and ignore discomfort. If a man gets a pain in his chest, he is likely to think to himself, "I'll wait and see if it gets worse!" If the same man is living with someone, he might say to them, "I have a slight pain right here!" pointing to his chest. Then that person would begin to pressure him to have it checked.
Those are really cool!
