One persons's 'unsustainable subsidy' is another person's 'showing compassion for those who are less fortunate'. It's not like New Orleans is a particularly affluent area either, and people have lived there for a very long time.

Take health insurance—one view could be that it forces people who are healthier to subsidize those who are less healthy.

While some people are unhealthy due to factors outside of control, others are unhealthy because they do unhealthy things. Would you consider the latter an 'unsustainable subsidy'?
rsync -P -e ssh <username>@<hostname>:/file/you/want/to/copy.txt ~/wherever/you/want/to/put/it

"-P" is to report progress and to not delete files that haven't been transferred completely (in case the connection drops out) and "-e ssh" is to transfer files over SSH.
Wow, that would cause an unprecedented amount of moral outrage if it were on TV today.

Oh, you resonate with me (not sure if. I am going to start an undergrad in physics soon, and started doubting my choice after this thread. I got into programming from 9th grade. I am still interested in it, but I kinda grew over my crush on being a dev in FAANG and silicon valley startups.
I have the opportunity to got to a SE program, but I don't like the lack of humanity(and other) electives in eng programs. I am also accepted to a CS program, but the school with the physics-math program have a better name and opportunities around it. The CS program is in a mainly-undergrad school in a suburb-ish city.

Do you think I would still be good sticking with physics and complement it with personal projects and CS electives/minor? (This is Ottawa, Canada)
Actually, there's not been much change from the original fork of FirefoxOS besides the UI changes to be better for non-touch devices.

GerdaOS (LineageOS for KaiOS) allows people to import and run FirefoxOS packages without modification, though many apps will need some changes to allow it to work without a touchscreen.

The unofficial rumour mill says that with the extra investment from Google, KaiOS will probably shift to Chrome(ium) at some point in the future, but that's just a rumour and remains to be seen.

Most of the complexity and suffering of a submit queue evolves from the interactions between your VCS and CI systems. Keeping things simple is great! Kubernetes' CI system is Prow, which runs the tests as pods in a Kubernetes cluster. Dogfooding like this is great, since the team you're providing CI for can also help fix bugs that arise.

I'm not totally sure what point you're trying to make... I don't have a particularly strong opinion on how to allocate tax revenue in this situation, but it seems relevant to mention that the platform is 150 miles off the coast.

That's 138 miles into international waters. Percentage-wise, it's... a little closer to Louisiana than Texas? Florida and Mexico are't all that far away either.
Sysadmins are important for sure! I do think that it is true though that certain functions are being more automated. Perhaps a DevOps or SRE role might be a better fit that a full on developer? DevOps and SRE roles are certainly not going anywhere anytime soon.

Best of luck with you endeavors, my sympathy for your struggles.
I want to echo the sentiment of other posters. I’m a senior architect on a team of several hundred people and I can without a doubt say that Sysadmin skills are hugely valuable and SAs normally have a very distinct and useful perspective on the end to end process of software delivery (of which coding is only one part).

My advice would be to explore more areas of self improvement. It’s not only code out there!

You could look at continuous integration, focus on deployments, learn networking, go deep in cloud config management.

There’s also the people side, like project managing technical implementations, managing vendors, or doing budgets and planning.

You might also consider database admin which is really interesting work.

I guess what I’m saying is don’t feel limited by coding not being you thing. If you can learn enough to get by, you’ll find many roles where it’s not the core skill.

I don’t see myself in this industry. What to do?
Developer for five years. Half at a FAANG, half at a smaller company. In either company, I have never aspired toward any other roles, and I am becoming increasingly less enthusiastic about software.
I consider myself intensely ambitious and passionate - just about things other than work.

I am not burnt out or depressed.

What to do when you have no interest in advancing in the industry and believe you are stagnating in your current role?
Agreed with this sentiment, I've got about 3 years of professional development with a BS and MS in computer science and from time to time ask myself "Do I really know anything?? damn i'm dumb, why don't i understand this better? does anyone else struggle the way I'm struggling?"

to which the answer is yes, ~95% of all developers endure struggles but fear that no one else does

Not necessarily go weld it together, but they should be going and spending time with the welders. Ben Rich’s memoirs from the Skunkworks talks about this a fair bit. Around there, having the engineers close to the fabricators was one of their central tenets, and the engineers did occasionally roll up their sleeves in the shop.

With the SR71, at one point when they were fighting with a nasty engine problem, Ben himself was going to go up on a flight so that the pilot could show him what was happening.

I understood your meaning. Although I'm not sure what their tech looks like. It could very well be that they have invented many novel ways to maintain the level of quality that they do. If it was just UI that was better, I would say ya, nothing novel. But they also seem to serve up better and cleared streams than other software I have tried.
Physical infrastructure isn't going away anytime soon. I work in migrating people to public cloud and we are seeing a resurgence of people moving to "private clouds". Mostly vMware and OpenStack.

I agree with spaced-out. A neural net can capture all those smaller eigenvectors in the signal that are routinely thrown away during traditional feature engineering, like what you describe. When the number of training samples grows big enough, those factors with marginal contribution become significant and allow higher levels of accuracy in prediction or classification than are possible when curating features manually.

Deep nets are here to stay. They're just not magic bullets that solve all problems equally well, especially those when training data is minimal.

> Ikonate is the very first icon set of this kind designed to be fully accessible*

> * Ikonate is NOT accessible out of the box and will never be. We've done our best to follow the best accessibility practices while building this software, but it's your role to adjust it and make it truly accessible inside your project.

these are incompatible statements. the author should just not call it accessible.

also -- why "will never be"? there are ways to make it more accessible, if not perfect. one idea: turn the icons into a truetype GX variable font with a weight axis that increases as viewport size decreases using media queries. that would increase out of the box legibility considerably.
That seems to be an unnecessarily narrow band of candidates you want. You would be missing out on possibly good candidates just because they got a PhD.
Yes, by design, it's a package manager. Rather than bundle dependencies such as libraries, they're pulled in system-wide and dynamically linked. This preserves both flash and memory space on embedded systems, which with consumer routers are fairly constrained. My router has 16MiB of flash and 128MiB of RAM, and that is more or less typical for consumer non-x86 routers.

Likewise, uninstalling via a package manager handles orphaned dependencies automatically for you.

> How often do you want to go messing with your router

That's the thing when you're running what is essentially Linux (in the case of OpenWRT): it's not a router, it's an OS and you can manage just like you do any other OS. Your description of "apps" as containers seems to abstract away the OS level and leave you with just some frontend (which is probably running Linux/*BSD underneath) and no control.
I was wondering about that. Every time I looked at AWS pricing, it seemed insanely expensive for the people that just forklifted their on-prem services into the cloud without re-architecting it to fit that type of environment.
Yes but mostly learning novel technologies, and try it in some very small project or snippets.

Really looking forward to your Xero integration, that's currently a must for us (daily sync so we can reconcile customer invoice payments) otherwise Mercury looks great. The Big Bank we use right now don't provide sending ACH or wires online, you have to call them and they give you a confirmation call back about an hour later. It is a giant pain in the behind and completely ridiculous in this day and age.

Once you get automatic Xero sync working we'll be there!
Wait what? You're comparing healthcare, which is a necessity, to choosing to live in a particular city. People that need healthcare don't have a choice, people _do_ have a choice to relocate to a more sustainable city though.

I agree with you that NOLA isn't just the wealthy. But, that doesn't change the fact that its not a sustainable city to live in.
I keep forgetting the general public is not aware of these things.

It is actually impossible for anything to be accessible out-of-the-box, but they have been designed to be accessible and have sane defaults. Those statements do not contradict one another.

For example, if you use a magnifying glass icon to mean "zoom" but their default title text for a magnifying glass is "search" then it is not out-of-the-box accessible even though it was designed to be fully accessible. They even mention this scenario (generically, not specifically) in their disclaimer.

>E.g. all the titles and descriptions given to the icons should be treated as placeholders and changed in implementation depending on an actual role of each icon. In many cases, you may not need them altogether

Having the placeholders there is questionably good - it would be better to have the attributes there but blank in my opinion. It will do more harm than good being wrong than being blank, but that's a difference in preference for implementation.
Looking at the listing you provided, the wide majority of the non-American unicorn startups are from China, with some scattered startups in other eastern countries. So I think the shift in startup-location speaks more about China's success in bringing back talent (especially compared to India) versus America's lack of a grip on talent.

As a fellow sysadmin, I think you have to be careful not to take certain concepts from HN too seriously. A lot of the HN crowd does seem to act like there is no role for sysadmins in the future, that developers will manage the infrastructure for their own software.

...This is bull----, and it probably always will be. There is a vastly higher demand for implementation and support and security than there will ever be for people to create the stuff in the first place. While learning to code is a big plus (I am a hobbyist developer when my caffeine is flowing enough for me to process code), there will always be a huge need for people who understand the priorities and needs of the companies they work for who can recommend, assemble, and manage solutions for them. Even in a fully cloud-based setup, your average company will still need someone who understands the cloud and the applications operating on it to support them and ensure they aren't being taken advantage of.

Sure, plenty of IT jobs are getting shuffled off to blue collar outsourcing shops, but check out stories about Wipro this week to understand why that is going to backfire significantly in the long run. Our job is not just to make it work, but to anticipate problems and provide affordable, workable solutions that mitigate the risks of those we work for.

Well people actually guard it indirectly. They could at any time randomly decide to go on a rampage and start taking over other people's property. Which actually happens when things boil over, eg. during revolutions. So they should be paid for remaining calm and keeping order.

I don't think we need to make the distinction between good and bad incomes. However we as a society should be concerned about giving somebody certain privileges without getting any compensation for it. That makes the society inherently unequal, because one group of people is forced to provide the privileges or services for another group of people.

Eg. people born in generation 2 are forced to accept and maintain private property privileges on land for those born in generation 1 even though they were never invited to discussions of land distribution in gen 1.

Simply stated, the infinite-length land rights are unethical to people in later generations. Continuous payment system would be ethical.

This alone could then help resolve other issues in other monopoly related problems as people would have more options to decide how to allocate their life, as you well know it is the case of basic income and when people are not stifled by excess taxes and excess rent payments.

Australia's migration policies has "locked almost everyone out" for years (at least since the 1990s).

Net immigration numbers jump around year by year, but have been between 170K and 250K/year for over 10 years (with the exception of 2008/9 when they increased to 300K for one year)[1]

There's been no change in policy affecting these numbers.

There have been changes in the rules affecting asylum seekers arriving by boat. In terms of numbers these aren't really significant (during the most extreme years it was around 10,000).

Separately, Australia takes in ~13,000 refugees per year who do not arrive by boat.[2]

I think the NES's PPU is a lot more powerful in some ways than the C64 VIC-II chip. The NES's PPU supports multiple background layers, priority, pixel collision detection and has up to 64 sprites on screen at once - albeit with some limitations on how many are on each scanline. The VIC-II can only do 8 sprites at a time without scanline raster tricks (and if we count those the NES can do more than 64 too)
> MBA ideas of an economic moat - lock-in, stickiness, etc - are "dark patterns".

Dramatic statement. I am an SWE and an MBA. There are merits to thinking about every aspect of the business. Tech/Product is just one - an important one in a Saas company, but still just one.

> But there are "light patterns": you can stay ahead in a technological race if you keep running;

This is another way of saying "build it and they will come". You have to combine good business/economic sense with great products.

Apple didn't just get to be Apple by staying ahead in a technological race. Arguably, they are behind a lot of other phone makers in specs. But they have a lot of people thinking about ecosystems, lock-in, marketing and other "MBA" concepts.
