Do you have any reputable sources for this?
Seems like you need to be well-known, and/or have a deep network of contacts. Some way to get your name out there.

And I suspect that candidates have little loyalty to staffing agencies -- vs more of a broadcast. So you need to keep hustling.

Well, there are three truths.

1. What really happened.
2. How the people involved remember it.
3. How it gets recorded.

The potential for gross distortion between steps is a fact, but that doesn't necessarily mean everything you read or hear is false. And indeed, details are the first thing to get twisted.

It's usually (or, "often enough") the major themes that survive. Assuming that everything is a lie means you're paranoid. Assuming that everybody lies means you're sensible.

How truth survives through that is left as an exercise for the reader.

1) Set a Request at about 50% of max CPU usage

4) Scale out, in advance, to 2 or 3 pod replicas
I don't think it matters if it was a k8s issue or not, what matters is that k8s made it much harder to get to the bottom of it.

We actually had similar issues when we deployed k8s. In the end it turned out to be a misconfiguration, but took weeks to figure out, and only because our entire dev team looked at it (and not the k8s guru who implemented it all).

Hi, HN!
I'm tired of different stupid RSS clients and I created own Stupid RSS Reader.

Features:
* Stupid RSS is Progressive Web App
* You can install it to your smartphone
* Very simple interface
* Offline mode
* All user data are stored locally only
* Posts are stored for 30 days. Deletion occurs after downloading new ones
* Open source
Nobody needs those 107 integrations. Everyone just needs two or three. Having 107 makes it more likely that you happen to have the 2 or 3 integrations that one specific customer needs.

As a solo dev, you can't be all things to everyone. You need to focus.

And if you focus on a subset of your customers, you may be able to do the two or three things your customers need better than the big guy who can do 107 things. And that's how you sell your product.

This is true, and a useful book on positioning is: https://www.amazon.com/Positioning-Battle-Your-Al-Ries/dp/00...

Furthermore, one way to avoid ending up in a feature for feature fight to the death with a bigger player is to think instead in terms of “job to be done”: https://hbr.org/2016/09/know-your-customers-jobs-to-be-done

By planning what you work on by focusing on what the customer is trying to achieve you’ll do yourself a favour when it comes to marketing as you’ll be able to speak in terms they understand.

Lastly, as you’ll see in the positioning book above, it’s not wise to completely avoid competitor analysis despite how unpleasant and draining it can sometimes be. A potential customer needs to understand why they would choose you over the incumbent. You need to know that answer before they can.
So Shopify is mad that Mailchimp isn’t sharing data with them?

I’m no fan of mailchimp (for e-commerce customers I recommend Klaviyo) but Shopify+ is hell to work with. I haven’t had as much grief with a platform as I’ve had building e-commerce stores on Shopify (and I come from Magento). For the price of plus, you get practically nothing. Clients ask me incredulously why they don’t have something as basic as Wishlist support or access to custom fields inside their product pages. Shopify’s own sync tool for dealing with multiple stores doesn’t sync much and their answer to the admin hell of managing multiple stores is to give us a single login and a store selector. For everything else well there’s an app for that.

Yes there’s an API. Yes you can build apps. But that’s an investment and at that point you might as well build something on Woocommerce or Magento. Yes you have to maintain a server and updates on the other platforms but you’ll need that for Shopify anyway. If you want to roll your own Wishlist app (you’ll want to when you see what’s on offer from the shopify store) you’ll need a server, a database - the architecture that Shopify says you don’t need to begin with.

Oh how funny.

Few months back when the previous voting took place all of their representatives were voting for article 13. Right now, due to forced coalition most of the current EU parlamentarists got rather bad starting places (giving them low election changes even in light of good voters support) and there were talk about switching parties already.

Now, week later I find out they changed their mind and are going to protect European Internet after being so eager to push this law. Smart, not that surprising yet funny move nonetheless.

Oh, and when approving it they were defending it very vocally. They didn’t pass it by ignorance. That’s for sure.
Yeah, definitely. I’d love to hear more about the high volume site that they rejected, though, if you’re willing and able to share. I’m just curious what went on in the backend because, in my experience, Stripe is good about not being overly zealous in shutting down Connect accounts. We’ve had accounts rejected for fraud or TOS violations (and they clearly were), but my sense is that had Stripe closed any accounts incorrectly, we very much could have interceded in the merchants behalf and got things corrected.

On the KYC front, if there are difficulties, it’s usually just a matter of Stripe requiring a more rigorous form of verification (such as a copy of photo ID). We’ve never had a merchant to unable to completely KYC and lose their account. Of course, we operate at a much, much smaller scale than Shopify (and in a rather low risk vertical), so surely run into fewer problems and can handle them in a more personal manner.

I wonder, though, how much of this could be Shopify’s inability or unwillingness to handle these edge cases that come up with Connect accounts rather than any malice on their part.

Certainly pushing merchants to a Stripe Connect account and then not letting them go back to a regular Stripe is pretty bad, but, having been behind the scenes in a scenario ms like this, I could see how these could result from poor decision making and incomplete knowledge rather than malice. It’d be easy for someone to make the assumption that if a merchant as a stand-alone Stripe account, they’d obviously not run into any problems with a Connect accounts. Coupled with the fact that companies using Stripe Connect will tend to (not unreasonably) want to drive as much of the processing that happens on their platform into Stripe Connect, so that they can either begin to receiving volumes discounts on the processing or increase the discounts they already receive, which they can use to either make money on the processing or offer more competitive rates to their merchants.

This is an 11-year old article and honestly total bullshit. European developers and professionals in general are quite happy with the welfare in Europe. It's a completely different mindset.

Its less refined in the sense of less cracking.

It contains more energy for a given volume, so you get better fuel economy than with petrol. It might not be better for the particulates and NOx that we are now optimising for, but its better for CO2, that we were optimising for. So I don't think the snake oil label is warranted.
Generally this is true, but I think you are being dismissive by throwing this truism at his note taking attempt. The point of keeping a personal wiki, is tonote the things that has come to his attention and not to forget it and to come back to it later. Writing things down gives it a concrete form. Sometime I even force myself to write down things that I read and that is a reasonable cure for my binge reading procrastination. Even if you think it as just a glorified bookmark manager, it is more useful than your browser's bookmark manager . Many people who do not maintain a wiki may not realise that knowledge is incrementally gained and by having a wiki (or any place really) to note these things makes the process transparent and recallable.

How El País used AI to make their comments section less toxic
This.

No one should take PG's quip to be anything more than advice for those who are running a dysfunctional ship due to excessive obsession with competitors.

There are likely two broad ways any business gets off the ground:

(1) Unintentionally
(2) Intentionally

Google was likely unintentional (Brin and Page weren't attempting to create a business for their dissertation).

Amazon was quite clearly intentional.

Most startups are likely in (2).

VC-backed startups and startups hoping to obtain VC funding have a goal of gaining some amount of strong traction (thus increasing the likelihood of fast and significant growth).

If you're intentional, and you have a goal of obtaining the traction that's attractive in the VC universe, then competitive strategy is not something you can ignore. It's not something you myopically focus on, but it will help guide your positioning and development (among other things).
There’s also the issue of admin user experience. Those Shopify apps offer various links and can often take you out of the Shopify admin entirely. There are some great apps on there (Accenture custom fields for example) but they’re also limited by the Shopify API. You’re no longer trusting your images to be stored in Shopify but also in the third party apps service.

Yes you an argue there’s reviews and due diligence but this is the internet - I don’t immediately trust user reviews. Your best bet is to sign up for a trial (if they offer it and don’t ask for your CC upfront) and then test the app out. You may have just spent a day on one app and there may be a dozen or more on the App Store.

It is a mess and if you’re anything but an SME, I don’t recommend the App Store or Shopify. It may be your quickest way to an MVP but don’t consider it a long term strategy

Open Information Extraction (OIE) Resources
I do a similar thing at https://blog.kowalczyk.info/ (under "My external brain"), e.g. section on programming: https://blog.kowalczyk.info/article/d61b4f94b10d4d808d3d238a...

I build a custom toolchain to generate it.

All the content is stored in Notion (which is the fastest way I found to write and edit content).

I wrote a Go program (https://github.com/kjk/blog) to convert that to html and deploy as a static site to Netlify, on their generous free plan.

I also generate the rest of the website (mostly blog) from content in Notion.

Since the code is open source, others can adopt it.

The Yield Curve Is Inverted Remind Me Why I Care
The controlling unit indeed comes from Bosch, but it is a generic unit that can control any kind of engine. The car manufacturer using this unit programs it to perform the actual world, mostly by specifying parameter sets for its operation. The car manufacturer has for example to determine, how exactly the ignition needs to be set up for a given temperature and load etc. There are plenty sensor inputs these profiles can depend on like engine temperature, revs, load, outside temperature, speed of the car. The Bosch software can offer the "test dectection" as one of the inputs. There can be quite reasonable use cases for that information, but that VW used it in the way they did, was VWs choices. The same or a similar control from Bosch unit is probably used by many other car manufacturers, but without abusing this specific "feature".

As the article writes, there are other "strange" engine configurations with other car manufacturers, like using the outside temperature. Reducing or switching off the exhaust cleaning system at outside temperatures below 17C (the tests are guaranteed to be done at 20C) achieves a similar effect to what VW was doing without literally breaking the law by using a defeat device.
The thing is if you keep to the basics Nomad/consul will do the job just fine.

I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-Touchbar), the computer that kind of seemed like "the new MacBook Air" before there was actually, well, a new MacBook Air, and...honestly, I don't think the new keyboard is that bad. I don't love it, by any stretch, but it's something you can get used to, and the slight redesign in the new Air should make it a bit more resilient.

(I wouldn't be surprised to see a new keyboard design roll out across some Mac laptops as early as this year, but if it does, it won't come to the Air for a while. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if the new design is still optimized for extreme thinness.)

My conclusion, from the first time I thought about it, is that they were all cheating.

Engineers move job; they talk to each other. Every car company had to have people who knew the truth and, if they were being unfairly competed against, could publish this truth.

For practical purposes we moved off of it in 1914. The value of the dollar steadily declined against gold from then on, despite the official exchange rate. The divergence was nearly 2:1 by 1929, and the run on the banks then was caused by this. The runs stopped only when FDR suspended payments in gold.
Do keep in mind that Europe is not a single country. Within the European Union, salaries and tax rates vary greatly. For western Europe, that seems a bit low.

Besides the northern countries, the tax rate is not 50%. Most countries either have a flat rate that is well below that or have a system where you pay in boxes. Like %30 over the first 20k, then %47 over the remainder etc. On top of that, many countries have countless schemes that result in tax deductions. Like owning a house gets you a discount.

In almost all cases, the effective tax rate falls well below 50%.
I also see balancing out the disadvantages of children, teenagers, and young adults from poor families as way more important than balancing out the disadvantages of well-off women. I totally agree that we have a long road ahead of us in this respect, as the Stanford numbers clearly show.

Still, your claim that nobody cares about the poor is not justified. Also, there are many just causes, and we can work on all of them in parallel.
As an investor, I find this rather a good thing. If I have to constantly afraid of recession then I would tend to just wait and sit on cash. If Fed is doing all these interventions including directly buying stock with their trillion dollar war chest + printing press then may be recession can be avoided or at least softened out. I also worry that recession may happen just because people are expecting it to happen even though economy is pretty sound. In that case, Fed intervention can avoid things falling fast just for short time and collective fear can be subsided back to sanity.

This stuff doesn’t matter ... it really boils down to the extreme FOSS ideological stance.

Fact is GitHub is the site that won this winner take all race. If you put your open source project anywhere else you do your project and it’s users a disservice. Everyone knows and is familiar with github and uses it every day ... taking your project elsewhere takes it out of this daily workflow.

And frankly who cares if GitHub itself is not open source... honestly it really doesn’t matter in any meaningful practical way, it matters only from an ideological standpoint.

I like it that the modern world of OSS isn’t controlled by the extreme ideology because these people tend to choose worse options to get the job done because that worse option meets an ideological position.
