Seems like asking for trouble. Basically you're putting a thousand dollars cash in your house, then telling the world I have a thousand dollars cash in my house, if you find a way to break in and take it, it's yours, I won't make a fuss because you're doing me a favor by exposing a vulnerability.

Just please don't take the other valuables and ... oh yeah, please don't mess with any of my family members and maybe please let's try to keep it at no more than one hundred people trying at the same time b/c otherwise things might get out of hand.

What's the best way to learn sales for a technical founder?
There isn't a standard dose. Far too early for that.

I take it sublingually because that's what my doctor prescribes.
> Why would the employer still choose to hire you after you refuse to sign?

You'd know why if you've hired low wage people (I have). Finding one who'll show up sober on time and do the work without needing micromanaging is gold, and you're not going to lose him over a stupid, and likely not enforceable, non-compete.

Workers are not an undifferentiated mass of interchangeable cogs.
Based on the images on the web site, that seems like a lot of development for such as small site. I would suggest starting with a cap on occupant capacity and working forward from there. A small site can't be all things to all people. But it can do one thing really well. Taco truck not power center. Good luck.
1) The different ROAs have different bioavailability.

2) Ketamine is cheap. Convenience should be prioritized over efficiency.
This only applies to those making less than 2x the CT minimum wage, including heathcare costs. That's currently 40k or less per year.
Maybe not understanding the problem with a tool that may be used to work on proprietary code containing trade secret information silently and unexpectedly sending information out to the Internet is the reason for software becoming spyware...
The product doesn't lead to children dying. It increases the risk of a certain type of fatality when used improperly, with the overall odds still being miniscule.

Oddly I left vscode for emacs for Tramp. Tramp makes it possible for me to have autocomplete, remote repl, remote debugging out of the box (with the python layer plugins in spacemacs). sshfs + terminal never felt integrated and autocomplete doesn't work from the python environment in the remote machine. That was the moment I thought that the flexibility of emacs is hard to match with text editors having a plugin system. I wonder if something like tramp will ever be written into vscode.
I checked the spec earlier and it’s impossible to make it backwards compatible with Sass without some slight edits, at least according to their GH issue on it. It’s worth watching though I suspect <style type=“text/scss”> or something like it will be added before we see broad adoption! :)
Monica user here as well. Would be nice to get some syncing. Though as you said. It seems like it’ll take quite a bit of work and isn’t on the road map.
Why would Microsoft gathering usage data about VSCode turn into spying on the user's other apps and web searches? There's no connection between the two. Tracking usage of VSCode features has a clear connection towards improving VSCode. Spying on the user's activity outside of VSCode has no connection at all to improving VSCode.
Give it a chance and try spacemacs (and then after using it for sometime maybe start building something from scratch if you think its too big). The eVil (vim) mode works out of the box and mnemonic bindings are easy to memorize.
Given the very very modest amount of information you’re giving us: no. Judging by your post several thousand is a substantial sum. If that’s the case reserve your money for developing awesome site content. All else being equal, .com domains still do better in SEO tests. The name spinosaurus.co is less good than spinosaurus.com, for example, but if your site is about nothing but the spinosaurus then spinosaurus.co will do better than spinosaurus-hq.com.

Source: I do a fair amount of domain name business, and my most successful sale was $300,000.
are neck braces ever used then?
That's generally not the kind of leverage that China has. Factories bend over backwards for your business, 'we won't make it for you' is not a kind of discussion that's had. There are almost always alternatives and they know it.

The stick/carrot that China uses is market access.

The thing is, there is often no actual carrot. Zuck has been on his knees forever, as have Google, they are nowhere.

If you're Pizza Hut or KFC or some kind of brand, maybe, but anything else ...
Where's the link between "collecting data on VSCode feature usage" and "gathering a list of all other apps the user has installed on their system and all web searches the user does"?
You're correct, but given the problems that Amazon has with counterfeit goods and allowing the sale of uncleared products in regulated categories, OP does have a point.
Isn't it? When I opened VS Code on a new computer for the first time today, a message popped up with step by step instructions to opt out
Yes. Everyone has a remarkable inability to ask the question 'Who benefits?' when they engage with a service. Like Facebook, with consumer genetic tests you give up whole lot to get back very little. You are the product.
Emphasizing from my original post,

>> it only does this on the (VSCode) settings file and not on other files ;)
Just auction off N green cards every month. That would be much more transparent and fair than the current system.
This should happen for anything that isn’t explicitly an application. Documents don’t need crazy amounts of JavaScript, most of it is just glue.

I just read through that issue, I see nothing wrong with the responses. First was an acknowledgement that when opted out they were still sending an unnecessary "user opted out" telemetry event and that it would be removed. Then indicating that subsequent network connections were for update checking, and extension update checking, and finally an explanation that while they can disable telemetry in the app, they can't control any telemetry that extensions may be doing, and promised that they're working hard to ensure any extensions created by their team and other teams in general do the right thing, but as they don't control that code there's not a whole lot they can do.

I suppose it's not clear why vortex.data.microsoft.com is still on the list of servers being contacted at this point, but it seems quite plausible that this is coming from an extension.
Even with the best intentions at heart, do you trust them not to accidentally leak sensitive information about you through their telemetry? There are so many places a "phone home" system could either be compromised, or accidentally send more than it should.

Telemetry is used either with naivety or malice. There is always some risk to the user.

Write, just write. Don't stop doing it. Find a reason to do it everyday, for notes, for reminders, write letters to people -- which seems to be a lost custom in Western countries. If you do not like your handwriting, copy someone else's. Change it to make it comfortable for you to write.

Bash is the love of my life. However, it has serious weaknesses. Its array/table concept is flawed. You cannot do tables containing tables. Secondly, out of the box it cannot load or invoke functions in libraries. Fortunately, ctypes.sh solves this problem, and to some extent, indirectly, also the table of tables problem.
That’s strange, very small animated gifs are often smaller than the equivalent video, especially ones with low color counts.
At 10 cents it is cheaper than debit card transactions. And credit card processors charge 2-3% on average for transactions... maybe as low as 1.5%.

Visa is more convenient today but it took decades for Visa to get to the scale and scope and convenience it has today. If people start parking more money in crypto and using crypto credit cards it's only a matter of time before merchants start accepting direct payment from coinbase wallets. At that point, Coinbase can bypass Visa and charge a fraction of the fee for facilitating the trade from USD to BTC.
Ok, so epistemologically we can’t know what reality “really” is, only what we observe, and we can come up with models that fit our observations. Your (I’d say vacuous) point is that my model of reality that includes a chair is epistemologically on the same level as a model of the cosmos that includes dark matter... though it’s also on the same level as a model that gravity is caused by invisible purple dinosaurs. :) So this perspective doesn’t really get us anywhere in judging models of reality.

I’d say models are useful when they are simple and predictive. Dark matter isn’t really predictive, it’s what is hypothesized to compensate for the prediction error of our current model of gravity. (Doesn’t mean it’s wrong but am just pointing this out)

So I don’t think dark matter is inherently problematic, just that it’s not predictive and it’s worth considering whether the model of gravity we have needs tweaking instead (much like GR refined Newtonian gravity).
At the risk of being “that contrarian guy”, I’m going to say it: this danger here is overblown. And yes, I used a Rock ‘n Play for my firstborn and I plan to use it for the one on the way. The reason these children died is because the parents were putting them in Rock ‘n Play after the point at which the children could roll over by themselves, which F-P explicitly said NOT TO DO.

It’s a great product if you use it the way you’re supposed to...
So, you hated the _work you did with PHP_, not really the language.
In China, some employers (who probably still living in 17 century) sees giving out offer and salary is some kind of blessing.

So apparently Jack Ma sees his company as some holy saint who give those poor farmland programmers food, water and life.
I’m usually the one getting annoyed when people play the fallacy card but... this is one contextomy after another.

I’ve addressed every single point you made, you just seem to have intentionally skipped those sentences:

- Taking half the paragraph where I say there’s no power and saying the shopkeeper should horde BTC...

-Saying they should horde BTC to leave when I literally said the same thing and pointed out how if you’re rich enough to leave BTC or Bolivar doesn’t matter, since you’ll have to leave early in the inflation curve to avoid turmoil.

-Saying the sentence about inflation doesn’t make sense then literally explaining exactly what it means like the entire freaking comment before it isn’t literally about investing in the enconomy vs investing in crpyto

I could go on, but I don’t want to waste any more of my time. Good luck with your Monopoly money.
I never really understood it either, other than mixing it with MDMA which was like launching into outer space.
At what profit margin, though? I've never seen actual YouTube numbers broken out in a financial statement.
Same thing, three years old now, used on of these for the first three months. I'd sleep on the couch with him next to me and rock it while I dozed all night, to give the wife some rest. All my parent friends had good sleepers so I've felt like an outlier, nice to hear a similar story.
Requiring employers to pay for non-competes will be functionally equivalent to a ban. Nobody in their right mind will pay tens of thousands of dollars to enforce one.
Conjecture: Anyone that spends over ten years making a living writing the same programming language will have major P(LANGUAGE)-TSD. I feel like the deeper concern is more a psychological fear of moving your career in a backwards direction. PHP just happened to be a part of that.

I can't speak for Cloudflare, but we've talked to them pretty extensively about the whole project, and even did a case study about our use-case with the bandwidth alliance, and as we switched cloud providers.

Uber's main trick has been claiming it's not a taxi service, and that its drivers aren't employees. Kind of like Airbnb claiming it's not a hotel service. Or Paypal when they used to claim they weren't a bank. Or cable/internet phone companies claiming they're not phone companies. Or game companies claiming that buying loot boxes isn't gambling.
It's kind of funny because now you're trusting some third party not to inject unwanted code when you just blindly download binary on every release anyway.

Seems to just bring another problem by trying to solve one.
I'm sure an individual Chinese factory wouldn't take reprisals on it's own or anything.

This is speculative - as much for anyone doing business with China as for me in the US just thinking. But it's not individual factories doing the hacking and I assume it wouldn't be individual factories doing the reprisals, it would be the Chinese state, which has a reputation for a scorched earth approach.

And yeah, given the carrot often isn't very real, the idea that provokes unanimous behavior among US companies in China seems implausible.
Not using the geometric product is sort of like working as a chef but not allowing yourself any knives with blades between 3 inches – 15 inches long. Only a paring knife, a hatchet, and a machete. Yes, it is possible to accomplish everything you wanted using a confusing mishmash of other abstractions (the raw numerical data turns out basically the same), but it’s really really inconvenient in comparison.

> it has no geometric interpretation

This is ridiculous. The geometric product is thoroughly “geometrical”.

Pretty sure Stripe and SendGrid are too
There's already a comment here, and I've also personally experienced just from talking with others offline, that a lot of people don't even know VSCode had telemetry, despite it mentioned several times in the product itself and its documentation. They (and remember, these people are supposedly developers) either ignored it, or just didn't read the docs.

I guess a big WARNING banner might scare users away, but it's still a bit disturbing to see such a lax attitude towards tools which developers use to work with a software company's most valuable assets. A lot of people, developers included, don't really read EULAs, and it's the same reason (traditional) spyware could thrive: no doubt they all specify in their license agreements the fact that they all collect information, but approximately no one reads those.

Put it another way, would you want your compiler or other parts of your toolchain sending information about all the source files it processed? I wouldn't consider myself particularly paranoid when it comes to security, maybe even looser than the average on HN, and even then I wouldn't use such tools. I wonder how many companies have already banned their use...

Ah, to be clear my earlier comment was focused on regular non-marijuana drug users (i.e., daily coke or opiate or amphetamine use). Either it affects their work performance (negatively), or it doesn't, but the urine doesn't tell you that — their work output does. Ditto marijuana and alcohol.
2 vs 15 depend on the person.

If you're a single? none.

Married couple with no child? none.

Married couple wanting more children? yes, it matters.

Parents who want their kids to enjoy life? yes, it matters.

Parents who need to take care both in-laws and kids? absolutely, it matters a lot.

2 mills can get you a Duplex (closer to center) /House (further away) in the suburb of Vancouver/Toronto (Canada) with probably 100-200k left. Certainly not enough for retirement. In Seattle (USA), I suppose it depends on the area of your chosen.

How long do you have to work to reach the point of no-mortgage (nice house), kids done college paid by parents, and $2 mills for retirement?

But this is just what might be one dimension of the discussion: financial => lifestyle.

> I can have technical challenges and jump from opportunity to opportunity in two years once my youngest graduates.

We both live in different cities. I don't know your city as well as you do but where I live, there's definitely a ceiling to that technical challenges. Now before we go further with examples... I live in a city that certainly have huge hi-tech ecosystems and quite well known internationally.

I don't see Facebook/Google/Uber/Netflix/AirBnB anywhere nearby. My coworker would love to do impactful ML work. There's zero companies in my city that does ML meaningfully (more than just gluing OSS solutions or calling 3rd-party APIs). I personally would love to work on tackling scaling challenges. These opportunities just don't exist here.

The companies here are quite good compare to major cities out there, but certainly there's a virtual ceiling/limit due to a mix of VC, culture, talent, etc.

Just to wrap things up and to put things into perspective, I'm not a workaholic or ambitious person. I see those challenges as opportunity to invest my skill to stay relevant for years to come so I can take my foot off the pedal a bit. Otherwise, I'd be just an Engineer like everybody else in this city...
That approach is fine for transportation, but not for nukes, and AI enhances robotics is closer to nukes, in many ways, even though robotics in general runs the gamut all the way down from replicants and Skynet to toaster ovens and juiceros.

It's okay if some toaster ovens burn down a few houses, and then get recalled due to a defective design, right?

But if you have a massive flotilla of self driving cars that go ape shit, flipping over, slamming themselves into trees and catching fire, and suddenly kill 10 million people overnight, around the world, due to an automatic hot fix maliciously kspliced into running kernels by an advanced actor, targeting systems are in motion in particular, that's more than a little terrible. Note that the actor could be a synthetic entity or not.

So, if you think about trouble the with autonomous systems being turing complete, engaging in tasks of arbitrary complexity, it doesn't seem that we can expect a bottom to the worst pitfall imaginable.

AI is unlike aviation, in the sense that we can't trust a simple axiom like: "what goes up, must come down."

We need to be pessimistic. Sometimes fear is healthy. Caveman logic sometimes am good. Fire hot!
Shell scripting gets a lot of hate, but after spending time to grok the language (and copious use of shellcheck), I've grown quite fond of it. This also has the nice side effect of emphasizing use of old unix tools.

I think the "big realization" for me was shifting to think in pipelines instead of passing state around in variables. That completely removed the pain of no arrays in POSIX shell for me. Stdin/stdout are your friend.

Certainly, shell scripting isn't the answer for everything, but with shellcheck (and bats!), I feel like it's a really reasonable default for systemy things. Heck, the status bar I use in my window manager is essentially just a 700 line bash script, with asyncronous update and everything. It's even quite readable and orthogonally organized, if I might boast. Have been pleasantly surprised over the years every time I go back and read it.
Engineering the rocker/crib out of existence is a valid solution if it's prone to misuse and that's what they did.
