I'm Java developer for the last 10 years.

I learned Java 1.5 back in the day. This knowledge is useful. I added some syntax sugar over the years and Java 8 was huge release with lambdas and significant standard library improvements, but old knowledge is relevant.

I learned a lot of J2EE libraries. Enterprise beans, Portlets. Most of this knowledge is obsolete. But servlets and web services are still relevant.

I learned Spring and Hibernate back in the day. Well, Spring evolved a lot, but basics stayed the same, so that knowledge is revelant. Same about Hibernate.

All my JVM internals knowledge is relevant.

I learned Maven back in the day. Recently I switched to Gradle because it seems to be better system, but Maven is not obsolete and I could continue to use it. Though those systems are extremely easy and it's not a huge investment to learn them anyway.

Recently I added Kotlin to my tool set. But this language is heavily based on Java, so all knowledge about Java, JVM and standard libraries is relevant.

So yeah, Java is pretty stable platform and very few things were obsolete. Most of my knowledge is stayed relevant.

JavaScript is crazy world. I have to dive into it once every few years. Everything changing. My old projects don't have a chance to work with new libraries (especially fun with dynamic typing). JavaScript really needs One Big Architect With Beard who will make everything right for everyone to accept.
Every modern society, looking back fifty years, condemns behavior once considered normal (male-only voting, interracial marriage bans, jailing gays, etc).

I'm convinced industrial animal agriculture will be one of the things today's society is condemned for, fifty years from now.
Unfortunately a lot of other countries do it better because they're in a completely different healthcare system. Which is to say that the focus of US EHR systems is billing, the focus in other countries is on patient care.

That might sound like a trivial difference, but medical staff at US healthcare providers are required to record significantly more information in order for it to be reimbursed. For example in other countries you aren't recording supply usage on a "by patient" basis, but by ward or even by department.

So patient charts are much simpler abroad. So you could copy a foreign EHR system but it would be completely unusable or require so much alteration you might have well start again. The issues are somewhat systemic.

Even Medicare which is essentially socialized medicine in the US, has substantially higher documentation requirements than equivalent programs abroad.
That saturated fat and salt are bad has been falling out of favor scientifically for a long time. They specifically built the burger to be like a normal burger because many people actually consider it a healthy thing to eat.
Ironically, there's only one state without a mineral severance tax, and it's California.
I'd be surprised if it happened in the states. They don't even have vegetarian french fries.
Using the terminology of Hardware, firmware, software where changes are slowest in hardware and fastest in software. I suspect JS introducing something which is even faster than software. May be called Slipperyware. By the time one grasp it slips out and take form of yet another framework.
I guess if an applicant has done enough research/prep for technical coding interviews, they probably will come prepared realizing that not all questions may have answers or may be able to be answered without context they aren't expected to have.

I know I will after this discussion!

I know I would also get very thrown by a question without an answer if I wasn't expecting it, in a way I don't think I would be on the job. (On the job I know too well through experience that not all problems have good solutions, but in an interview question I maybe would have assumed there was an answer they expected me to get, before this exchange).

Of course, the end goal of interviewing for an employer is maximizing their chance of filling position with good people, which involves balancing false negatives and false positives -- and in fact a "false positive" (wrong hire) is probably _worse_ than a "false negative" (turning down someone that would have been great). So... filtering out some candidate that might have been good may be a neccessary sacrifice, not a flaw in the process, so long as you're doing even better at successfully filtering out those that wouldn't work out. Whatever works!

If I felt someone was intentionally giving me a "trick question" in an interview, I might conclude they weren't someone I wanted to work for anyway, so everybody wins I guess.

For some vegetarians and vegans, they are greatly troubled if they consume even any animal by-product. There was a point when I felt this way; I stopped after a while, and told people "Don't worry, I'm not religious about it."

I think there can be digestive concerns; eating a non-meat thing that was soaked in beef-grease may cause digestive trouble for someone who hasn't had beef in a very long time. But I've also heard of former vegetarians who had no trouble when they started eating meat again. Personally, I've suspected if some minor digestive trouble after various meals was caused by stray meat by-products making their way into my food, but I can't be sure what caused it.
Unconventional, but as a means to fill a "Mechanical Turk gap" it seems like a fine approach as the results can be isolated and tested. Inmates read and summarize with the benefit of being paid (and perhaps learning something in the process based upon the material read), Vainu gets a training set.

That said, the headline just begs for a "Alexa, shank the snitch" kind of joke.
I tried the V1 and found it lacking in terms of flavour and texture. It looked decent until you bite into it, at which point it looked less like meat and more like ground up veggies. I applaud the effort and look forward to tasting V2. That said I don't believe it is necessarily healthier for someone.
I had a homemade one once, of brussel sprouts, where the leaves must have intermeshed in such a way as to be pretty damn similar in texture. No similarity in taste, though.
The answers to this post would be the Comstock Lode for a tech cat burglar?

What's your threat model? Ordinary random petty burglaries, by people who will run if they find people in the house? Less-predictable drug addicts? Home invaders who will be aggressive about getting the safe combination?

You can ask your local police department what's typical in your neighborhood. They might also have an advisories email list you can get on, to hear about current patterns or unusual events (e.g., a rash of breakins via unlatched ground-floor windows). The first priority measures might not be electronic at all.

Also, I'd be hesitant to install a neighborhood-shaking siren. Your system is probably going to have false alarms, and you don't want to ruin the sleep of your neighbor, the hospital emergency department worker, who you really don't want to be fatigued next shift.

I’m self taught and making portfolio/small business sites is my bread and butter. I’m eager to be part of a proper team, become a MERN and/or JAMstack guru, and learn the workflow necessary to scope out and manage big projects.
Yep, agree. Though, I thought it was an important factor for us when we are bootstrapping to consider if we are heading straight into a monopoly that we can't defeat.
1. You can nest routes, see [1].

3. You can do arbitrary SQLs through the ORM. You can also do arbitrary SQLs with whatever joins you like and still get a model back. See [2].

4. This hasn't been an issue for some time. See [3] for how to extend and [4] how to substitute with your custom model.

5. There are libraries supporting relevant oauth providers [5] and libraries for specific protocols like ldap [6]. These are drop-in libraries that needs only basic configuration. It's also quite simple to build a custom authentication system, using whichever http header you fancy.

6. While this is somewhat true, it's not fair. There are libraries for many purposes. django-rest-framework [7] is an exceptionally good framework for creating ReST APIs.

7. There's nothing stopping you from using any other database, neither graph nor nosql.

8. Django's migration support is extremely good. If you dislike the ORM and you also want to use an external migration tool, you can easily enough just omit using models and utilize sqlalchemy instead.

NanoVMs | Kernel Engineer | SF, CA | https://nanovms.com

Looking for experienced kernel engineers with great debugging skills. We prefer on-site/full-time roles but are open to contract/remote positions for qualified individuals. At this time we wouldn't be looking at sponsoring - maybe in the future.

We have a ton of kernel level work (as you could imagine).

Please email ian@ for more info.
"Let's acknowledge that many corners of the consumer VPN industry are really awful so it's a reasonable question whether we have some ulterior motive. That many VPN companies pretend to keep your data private and then sell it to help target you with advertising is, in a word, disgusting. That is not Cloudflare's business model and it never will be."

Therefore Warp will be open-source and its distribution will be free from the control of commercial third parties via "app stores".

Those who do not wish to use an "app store" may compile Warp themselves or download binaries from their preferred repository for sideloading, e.g., F-Droid.

If you have a specific disease its one thing but please do not advocate and claim what is healthy or not for most people based on that. Many vegi burgers that people would eat as replacements are far more unhealthy.
Request what? The surveillance system? No. That said many on HN where strong proponents of it when it was announced because it was marketed as providing data the city government could use to make improvements.
I really hate this take that if something is not perfect, you might as well just give up completely.
I wish they could also provide green card inventory in similar fashion. But that will help us know how many green cards are being wasted each year.
Most of your notes are accurate, especially about the difficulty in bringing an old app up to speed. A legacy Django app has very different requirements from someone choosing a framework today.

For 1 it doesn't need to be an app, I just gave that example for clarity. You can include any set of urls (and can create nesting within your app if you desire). Of course, the Django folks would probably suggest that if you have so many urls that it becomes cumbersome, perhaps your app should be broken up.

6. You can DRF for individual routes and regular Django for others.
Yes, but there is also no evidence to suggest that reading is the best method to learn either. For example, in one study they found no difference in recall between subjects reading or listening to audio books. Writing on a phone so I can't link to it.
Physicians are in no way required to turn over all patient EHR data. CMS collects quality measures in the aggregate, numerators and denominators. There may be vendors in the middle who are collecting the data to calculate the measures, but the patient-level data does not go to CMS. (Obviously, their claims do, they're a payor.)

4+ years of experience focused on frontend development. I build most of my projects using Vue, and currently learning React.
Some estimates say that 90% of earth's oil is in shale rock.
That's what my typing teacher taught me about typing, that by not memorizing all the key+finger combinations I would never type (Owning a computer, I was self-taught and used all the wrong fingers). Twenty years and a law degree later, after authoring literally thousands of pages, I still cannot say which finger is supposed to hit the 'r' key. Somehow I muddled through. The point is that rather than memorize combinations of seemingly random numbers, the same knowledge will come naturally as students learn other aspects of math.
In fact, I'd argue that it is a good fit even today. What wasn't designed for mobile is the Http protocol. HTTP2 solves most of the problems with mobile without changing out TCP. QUIC provides a few benefits, but by and large not many.
They are paying less in taxes. US tax rates have been dropping for almost 70 years.
Is that even possible? I thought Wireguard was essentially a kernel module... Which is basically the only thing you can't dockerize, as the kernel is shared between all containers?

Could be mistaken though .. not sure

Wow. Sure, thanks.
JS the language probably is AFAIK. I and many others in this thread are talking about the JS ecosystem.
They should eventually be able to form groups...and work as peers. Is there really a difference between a 12y/o and a 13y/o...as adults, we don’t always consort with those born within the same solar year. Why wouldn’t it work for kids?
Did SF not roll out a similiar system? I recall lots of discussion on the topic of all the improvements to public services (ha) that the data from these lights would enable.
This is specious reasoning. A whiff of cigarette smoke can trigger cravings for nicotine. That doesn't mean one is missing something essential or that its nutritious. (or that one should eat a cigarette occasionally to stay healthy ;)
Some people seem to go vegan because they're emotionally off-kilter. I'm in a few vegan Facebook groups and I've seen posts where people are way over-reacting to food cooked on the same surface, or talking about their emotional breakdown over the suffering of animals. I'm vegan almost two years and I'm pretty sure I ate mayo on a burger two weeks ago. I ordered it explicitly without, but sending it back would just create waste and no benefit.

"Who should we hold responsible? Aren't we all part of this dumb experiment?"

Yes. That's why blame is counterproductive when it comes to systemic injustices or unsustainable practices. Focus on incentives instead - why do the various actors do what they do? Is there a link that can be broken by creating an alternative or changing the payoffs to a certain action, and what's the cost of breaking that link?
It would be good to find a way (an alternate path) that helps the kids who aren't great at memorizing. But don't do it in a way that makes things worse for the kids that are good at memorization. Don't "equalize" by making the best worse.
It says in your profile you founded Gun.io which has Cisco as a client ?

You don't think that's a little hypocritical given that they have likely been involved in far more surveillance than Google ever has.
Either an HN bug or a bad link but the link destination got ellipsized.
Ask HN: How do you get the most out of pair programming?
There are quite a few opinions out there about liking or disliking pair programming. I hope this thread doesn't turn into that.

I'm curious what approach you take to pair programming to make it work best for you.

Any thoughts or resources are welcome.

it seems to me that the devs who been at it for a while, sees the frontend landscape as huge chaos.

but the newcomers coming into the scene, seem to either love or embrace the fast pace changes.

i'm not really sure what to think of this situation.
Wouldn’t those same people want to avoid a place like Burger King in general? They’d be supporting the business of one of the largest consumers of beef in the world.
This is the first author.

Can you tell me which page you get the cert problem? It's been up to date and I don't see a problem.
How would you capture those metrics? Requiring people to document all such interactions is impractical, and open to easy abuse.
wouldn't be that difficult to write a script that checks geoip and launches a VPS in the region closest to your current devices public address. You could even create an iOS shortcut to allow you to do it from your iPhone
I agree, there is a lot that's harmful in nature. But we as humans have been developing knowledge about how these natural foods affect our health for thousands of years, across a sample on the scale of billions.

Tribes completely isolated from modern society have been proven to have extremely rich knowledge of the plants in their environments. As humans, we are extremely familiar with plants found in nature.

GMO foods are chemically speaking much closer to natural than this veggie patty we are talking about. It lies on a spectrum so arguing about how neatly something fits a definition is missing the point.
> Except for the very top tier programs, no one cares that you have bootcamp on your resume.

Couldn't Lambda School be one of those top tier programs?

> For an online course, that is way too much.

Lambda's co-founder recently tweeted that the number of applicants as grown six-fold in the last 3 months [0]. If their offering is such poor value for money, why is there such a huge demand?
