That's true. Different projects require different quality. The projects I'm working on are tolerable to bugs. I just need to know that bug happened (from logs or user complaints) and I need to fix a bug in a timely manner. I don't need to produce bug-free code. I don't need to produce fastest possible code either, servers are seriously underutilized and there's a lot of CPU and memory. I'm using Java because that's what I know well. I like Rust idea, I'm tinkering with it because I'm kind of perfectionist and I like Rust approach, but I won't apply it to my current work in foreseeable future. Even switching to Kotlin from Java was a hard call, because so many people don't want to learn anything new and I can't really blame them.

I'd like Apple to stop pretending that it's still 2010 and that their services provide the best experience for their customers. In a connected world, Apple still wants to keep other major players out. I have Spotify, SmartThings/Google/Amazon devices and in every single case, Apple makes them a second class citizen by restricting private APIs, or has been very late to integrate with them.

It makes it hard to justify another MacBook Pro / iPhone purchase going forward.
Only crazies think euthanasia is an option. There are alternatives to forced contraception. Education and economic engagement and opportunity, eliminating taboos on personal contraception and making them available. Yes, consumerism is a problem, but it’s manageable in countries with the infrastructure.

What’s bad is encroaching in on wilderness for farming, resource mining/extraction, and population settlements.
> Choose life, not career. Find something you love doing and do it for the 'work' itself, not for some postponed happiness.

Insightful story about the investment banker. Your policy about choosing life feels like good advice in light of that story. The implementation details, that’s where it always gets difficult.

My story:

I want to make music. I think of music all the time. Whenever I made music I was passionate about it.

However:

- my music training is limited

- people that I know who are amazing alternate from being homeless to renting out a place. They are poor.

Do I have that much passion that I want to risk 10 to 20 years of my life in poor wealth and perhaps poor family life?

No. I want to live a middle class life while making music.

Sounds realistic?

Just follow your passion people, the invisible hand will help you.

Obviously I am cynical about this, I sincerely hope you can prove me wrong, for I would love to make music.
That greedy policy was not paying artist for the free period, like Spotify is doing!

> Spotify’s aim is to make more money off others’ work

And taking 30% of each transactions is exactly what you're accusing Spotify from doing, Apple.
Agreed. I'm at a stage in my life where my median friend probably is between 'just entering the workforce' and maybe 2 years of experience (from uni). One reoccurring idea in my mind right now is the notion of 'selling out'--what does the transition look like from "I'm happy living frugally like a college student" to prioritizing your career in your waking hours of your life? What does it look like to slowly convince yourself that just getting that next raise will finally make me happy (even though I have to sacrifice other things to do so)?

Like many people, I use spotify for music discovery. I don’t feel Apple Music can offer the same quality of recommended tracks for me/moods.
Spotify pays artists a fraction of what Apple pays.
I found that strict compile time checks speed up my exploratory phase. That's because the type system provide an even tighter feedback loop than a REPL, and effectively cuts down the search space.

Both pages would probably convert better if there was an explanation as to what happens when I put in my email address. There's also a confusing use over the word 'mailbox' - which I'd use for email, but also physical mail. The page asks for an email, immediately after saying "candy surprises in your mailbox" - if you assume no previous knowledge of what this site is going to offer, it's pretty confusing. And if it's confusing, you're less likely to get people to sign up.

Without having a proper look at and understanding the site, I'm not sure whether that email is a leadgen form, or start of the sign up process, but either way you could probably increase conversion with some better explanatory copy.

Interesting read though! Thanks for sharing!
> Well, that's just false. Everyone can understand pointers given both time and interest.

I'd like to believe that's true, but I've spent quite a lot of time trying to explain pointers and recursion to people and either they get it right away or practically never. Sometimes they end up with some cargo-culted half-way understanding that lets them solve most problems but they still don't seem to understand what's happening. Joel is a bit pompous, that's true, but there definitely are people who cannot understand pointers when taught in a normal CS course, and if 4 years of university didn't teach them pointers I don't think they'll get them while programming in the field.

As an aside, the fact that some people can't grok some things shouldn't be controversial. I myself can't understand lots of things and probably would never understand them in the way that people who grok them instantly do. People have different modes of thinking, and I do not doubt that there exist people who cannot grasp pointers and recursion in the same intuitive way that I do. That doesn't make them less smart in general, but it does mean they're a bad fit for e.g. a C programmer position.
It's definitely not just the design itself. The CTA (your email submit) of the new landing page is better positioned throughout. You have also added urgency ("time until next shipment", "subscribe now before time runs out"). You can also see up to 3 previous candy boxes now, whereas before, you'd have to click through. All of those contribute to the conversion rate of your new landing page.

Your old landing page actually contains some great elements that are missing from the new one, like the reviews, the explanation anime video and the "new tastes only available in Japan", which seems a great feature to me. I'd definitely try and add those back in, and split test that new version against the current winner.
Rome had Greek as an official language even back during the "real" Roman Empire.

Religion? I'm not sure I get the point, they were Christian, some would say, they were the actual "real" Christians :)

Sphere of influence? Can you even quantify that?

Culture, see language above.

You don't do non-revenue training flights on full-size jetliners. It's way too expensive. You learn to fly (period) on small planes that can't hold passengers at all, then you train in simulators for a specific model, and then finally you're paired up with a more experienced pilot once you start flying it for real.

They definitely did not do the proper training that was merited here, but the proper training is not and never was flying a large jetliner empty.

It can be, but the grandparent comment seemed to imply that just switching to electric cars will do that, which is disingenuous. It can help, but the power grid needs to be overhauled as well.

If electric cars do take over, that will cause a substantial increase of needed power, something I don't know if it can today. Right now the USA hasn't built a nuclear reactor in decades. I would love to see a more distributed power network (I.e. every home has solar and wind power).
And how fast we get there essentially depends on our progress in energy storage + energy-on-demand technologies.

Renewable energy production is not in line with our peak demand times (noon, evening, morning to a lesser extend).

Somehow we need to be able to save the energy produces/harvested when it's not needed and provide it to handle the demand spikes to ensure grid stability.
Boring argument.

In the medium/long term, the trend is towards renewable energy power.

In the short-term, these cars, whether running on renewable or dirt-power, mean that we, and our children, don't have to suck up exhaust fumes.

What kind of company do you work for?
I hardly ever comment on HN (I usually lurk) but I felt compelled to due to the sheer amount of false claims in this comment.

First off, can we define "things" in your sentence "things are actually cheaper, not more expensive"? What are the "things" you're talking about?

Education? Eh... not really expensive in the US, is it? the US student loan debt is swelling at about $1.5 trillion... and counting. It speaks volume as to how costly education is in the US. [1]

Healthcare? Hugely expensive for a country as "rich" as the US. Unless, of course, you work for a generous employer and in that case, everything is paid for. Wait a second, I'm told not all employers provide a healthcare plan along with a 401k plan? That's unfortunate. Let's also remind ourselves that the US doesn't provide universal healthcare for all its citizens unlike other advanced industrialized countries. So if you happen to be jobless? You're SOL. Awe-effing-some. Let's move on... [2]

Housing? In SF/SV/NYC/Seattle/Washington/any major US city, housing is extremely expensive as is housing in any major European metropolis such as London/Paris/Munich/Zurich. I bet the $300,000 nice house you mention in your comment must be somewhere in the countryside where nobody lives, right? Let's make this clear: houses located in the middle of nowhere in any European country also cost zilch. Let's take France for instance: 30K euros gets you a 100 sqm house (even bigger sometimes) in the Creuse region. Yeah nobody wants to live there but hey at least I can own a large house for the price of a car. [3]

I could go on and on. I haven't even touched on other topics such as Internet, groceries, rent or insurance. Your comment comes across as plain ignorant and downward complacent. I don't get this tendency of always sugarcoating the US, as though it would make it magically more appealing to the average Joe to move there.

So, if you buy bank shares today and it turns out the bank has been insolvent for 2 years already and management was hiding this from investors, this is totally fine, as long it's not an established bank but a "startup" bank, am I understanding you correctly?

Mark was in way over his head but nobody says he should be jailed for being in way over his head. He should be jailed for defrauding people. He cooked the books and he hid the fact that MtGox was insolvent practically from the moment he bought it.
Yes, and then you have to make people understand that box [number 23] is itself in a box and 23 can change at any time. And you can ask for the thing in box [the thing in box [the thing in box [the number that was passed to this function]]]. It's a double and sometimes triple indirection and understanding that pointers and the things pointed to are the same kind of data is the hard part. It's numbers all the way down.

This is the best and simplest description I have seen of parenting. Do no get emotional. Describe, explain, reason, rationalise. Beautiful. Such timeless advice.
I think there is a certain amount of hindsight in your response to scenario 1. While there is a good case to be made that Boeing was wrong to minimize the differences between the latest models and their predecessors, the Lion Air crash investigation did not produce any evidence that an MCAS fault could not be remedied by following the published procedure, and as far as I can tell, no other incidents prior to the Ethiopian Airlines crash have suggested that that, either. Up until possibly this crash, there has been no evidence that an MCAS fault presents any more risk, with a properly informed pilot at the controls, than would a trim runaway in the prior models. That is considered to be an acceptable risk, and the issue with properly informing pilots seemed to have been addressed.

They should have reacted faster after the latest crash, but fortunately this delay has had no consequences.

One would hope that the question of MCAS not being triply redundant will be reassessed, but the argument that it could do no more harm than a fault in the existing trim mechanism is not an unreasonable one, again if considered without hindsight.

>However RWD is actually better... assuming the car has a good front/rear balance near 50%... like the Telsa. Any FWD gets LESS traction when climbing than driving on the flats. A RWD gets MORE traction when climbing than driving on the flats.

You don't even need "good" weight distribution for RWD to hill climb better. I live on a hill. My RWD pickup goes up it better than the FWD wagon which has near 50-50 weight distribution.

The AWD wagon (same model and generation running the same exact tire) and the pickup in 4wd will run circles around anything with two driven wheels though. All three vehicles are old so no limited slip diffs or traction control so it's a fairly scientific comparison.

>Additionally your limited traction budget in a RWD allows the front wheels to be dedicated to steering only. On a FWD you have to spend part of your traction budget on acceleration.

Basically anything that makes a car handle well in the dry makes it handle well in the snow. Everything behaves the same but your coefficient of friction is less.

These are rather poor specs.

Though many times subtle, history is often misrepresented in Wikipedia and definitely has a bias.
> (my 3-series has spent 2 weeks at the dealership at least twice)

I guess some things don't change.

I had a Z3 around 2000-01 and I distinctly remember driving down Austin's Mopac in my year old car with something like five warning lights' worth of problems glaring at me. Then at some point the dealership broke the clock during a service visit, and then there was the winter where the engine thermostat stuck wide open, so the car never warmed up and the heater didn't work.

Dealer service was terrible too. On one of my many trips in to the service department, I pulled in to a co-worker who had just relocated to the area with his 540i. They wouldn't provide a loaner car because he hadn't bought at the dealership. (Because he didn't live in the same state when he bought his car.)

My last service visit, I took the car in with a spare tire on and had to get the normal tire fixed elsewhere in the meantime. Of course, when I went to pick the car up, they refused to put the normal tire back on until I drove the car out front of the sales department and started jacking the car up to replace it myself.

What's wrong with that one? I don't want to read it and I don't follow silly Twitter drama.
I would imagine so. As long as the pilot wants to control the rudder, that same sensor would be used. What I would like to know is if the MAX has a different setup. I think it'd be idiotic of Boeing to use the same rudder control configuration as the old 737 considering the problems that they had as demonstrated by this post.
I suspect it's the fact that "free-range parenting" is "a thing" rather than the default.
1) boeing changing geometry 2) boeing adding a new system that takes over control without documenting 3) pushing very hard to classify a new plane as an older type so now retraining happens 4) using only 2 sensors instead of 3, and using just one to control parts of the plane.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that an error warning can be an optional paid extra, even when the error being reported is that sensors are malfunctioning in a way that will cause the plane to override stick input and fly itself into the ground.
Perhaps one reason people buy iphones, is because you can't install from outside sources. It's part of the feeling of trust in iPhone.
