I'm not saying that isn't true for some things. I don't think its true here given that this is a nice narrowly scoped library that does a single thing and has well defined semantics.

Adding a cgo dependency is generally something that isn't done lightly by teams. Having a port to go instead of a wrapper around go would be much more likely to see widespread adoption.
However, people in the suburbs pay for their infrastructure. Urban, rural, and bicycle transportation infrastructure is funded by suburban car drivers.

I live in California and ride a motorcycle, there's no way I wear out the road more than I pay for it and the infrastructure is shockingly bad, there are a few roads on my commute where I have to be really smart about my positioning because there are holes large enough to make me crash.

Fewer people can safely drive cars and we need more viable alternatives, but giving people the infrastructure they're paying for is important too.

It leaves the implementation of the login (enter /password, ...) and consent (may application X have access to your pictures?) flows up to the developers using HTTP Redirection flows. You can therefore integrate it much easier in existing applications.

Also, you have complete control over the ui and user experience and must not learn a template language (Keycloak) or fork (Dex) the project to customize it.

Compared to Keycloak, Hydra is much more lightweight (no JVM/JBoss). However, you need to implement the user database yourself and/or write your own connector for it.

There's just some kind of cognitive dissonance with a lot of middle management and remote work. Event with a lot of remote employees, they never seem to fully take the time to learn it, and take advantage of it.

Anecdotally, my company, which has about ~50% remote employees, has stopped advertising remote positions as it tries to fill up large office sites it's invested in.

It kills me, because I've witnessed several, very experienced remote employees leave, which then are not really replaced. We tend to get little teams or clusters of people from companies nearby the new office sites. Those new "in office" teams often come in with a built-in culture, which of course rarely wants to learn or extend what's there: instead, they seek to make their fingerprint with something new. Almost every senior remote employee that's been hired solo has _never_ tried to rebuild the universe around them; but these new teams seem to start with that kind of mandate.

PM me if you're interested, I'm the hiring manager for this role.
The point of this code release seems to be to release Google's precise logic. That you may incorporate it into something else is, IMHO, less interesting; we've got plenty of other solutions that "do robots.txt" well enough. If it was just about that, Google's release of this would not be worth anything. The point is so that non-Google parties can see exactly what Google is seeing in your robots.txt.

That's why I'm saying there's no point trying to re-implement this. If you were going to re-implement this, there's probably already a library that will work well enough for you. The value here is solely in being exactly what Google uses; anything that is a "re-implementation" of this code but isn't exactly what Google uses is missing the point.

If they formalize it into a spec, others may then implement the spec, but they can and should do that by implementing the spec, not porting this code.

Is there a similar page for solar? Would be interesting to compare the two.
With good reason - a lot of people were hurting in the recession and watching the government pay for smart phones for lazy good-for-nothings must have been incredibly frustrating. If the government stopped favoring the unwilling to work over the down-on-their-luck, we may have a less toxic political culture.

> There's a little more than cuteness here. If a country has a large economic interest in producing fossil fuels, there are often political forces driving consumption of fossil fuels, and undermining any and all attempt to even discuss the consequences of fossil fuels.

-Do keep in mind the Norwegian domestic market for fossil fuels is tiny compared to what we extract; the obvious hypocritical overtones aside, there's no reason we couldn't sell lots of hydrocarbons abroad while still promoting cleaner stuff in our domestic market.

> you need

And that's the core of the problem (which, ironically in the context of the article, agile methodologies were supposed to address): wanting or needing something to be true/exist doesn't make it so.
The last time the HK police used force there was a massive backlash and the police were angry the government put them in that position to take the brunt of the people's anger.

There are very good non-conspiratorial reasons for the police to take their time, this time around. Plus there's always a subset of protestors who just want to destroy property and take a more aggressive stance (usually the younger ones), regardless of the predictable way it will be spun by opponents and perceived by the more moderate public. Not every act of violence or property destruction can be blamed on police provocateurs.
Or perhaps we could limit population growth where it is exploding, limit mass migration to countries with high per capita emissions, let populations shrink where it is naturally occurring and then ask people to forgo affordable energy.

If you look at the wind resource potential around 100m, there are places where it might be feasible to place turbines in areas you don't normally think of as windy, most likely a ridge on the predominately leeward end of a plain. I was a little surprised the first time I heard about the possibility of turbines in the southeast, but in retrospect it makes sense.

> solar costs are dropping even more rapidly than wind

Source? Both depend heavily on location. Most "great" locations for solar are not where most people live (e.g. Sahara desert). I am not sure what you are claiming is correct.

Also, solar + wind are very complementary, and a mixed production helps reduce energy storage costs.
That Pinterest google spam paywall is equivalent to follow/unfollow bots on instagram. While it is effective at gaining followers/signups, it's not bringing value added people. Of course if your metric for success is hockey stick user growth, then sure. I suspect if Pinterest did some user account house cleaning, you'd see millions of trash accounts go with it.
Interesting. Do you have a cite for this?
I don't know if that's great advice, but its certainly advice that will help get you promotions and salary bumps.

Like anything there's a grey zone here. Understanding the political realities of a business is highly beneficial and will help you move forward with the company and let you know when to pick your battles. But I've watched people who do nothing but this lose the trust of those at their level. And that trust is crucial for agile development. I also personally feel like pushing back on the company when appropriate can indeed provide a lot of value to the organization. "Why are we doing this meeting?" "We need another week for testing" "I'd like to see the roadmap you are planning". Just don't push back all the time.
The government might have let them do it knowing how badly that would reflect on the movement. That does mean they organise it themselves, which looks far fetched. Having a single guy infiltrated to hang the flag? Maybe. However it seems it's not first time.

It's a common strategy to let a protestation movement burn itself and that's why discipline and well-thought out strategy is important.
There have been a number of updates in the last 3 years that would have completely broken or caused 500 errors on your Gitlab instance if you immediately updated it prior to a hotfix being released. If you didn't encounter these I would be shocked or you're keeping off bleeding edge releases (smart). I've managed private gitlabs for 4-5 years. I've submitted ~5-10 tickets regarding various things breaking (gitlab-runner, pages 500ing after an upgrade, etc).

If you give each update a few weeks/month and pay attention to the comments on each release blog you'll save yourself quite a bit of headaches.
Traded 50 for WoW gold when it was effectively worthless. Sigh. Thought 'this is stupid, no one's ever going to use this for anything'.
Not everybody needs to survive, it's part of nature for the weak to die off.
Presumably people think the magsafe connection is better. I wonder about that though. I have a magsafe mac and my cable wears out after a year or two. Do the USB-C charging cables have the same problem?
That seems to be a common opinion on the ground, apparently.
Because the rules a well-functioning society runs by are more nuanced than "Is it technically possible to do this?"

If you'd like a specific example of why people might seek this courtesy, someone might have a page or group of pages on their site that works fine when used by the humans who would normally use it, but which would keel over if bots started crawling it, because bot usage patterns don't look like normal human patterns.

DoubleVerify | Ghent (Belgium), Tel Aviv (Israel), New York (US) | Full-time, Onsite

Ghent: https://doubleverify.gent/careers?gh_src=221704c02

Worldwide: https://www.doubleverify.com/careers/?gh_src=221704c02

DoubleVerify improves the impression quality and audience impact of digital advertising. We ensure ad viewability, brand safety, and fraud protection for hundreds of Fortune 500 companies.

My team in Belgium optimizes hundreds of thousands of video ads per minute. We also do a fair amount of data science. We're a full-stack JavaScript team, but we focus on computer science fundamentals rather than specific tech. In fact, some of our top engineers started out without any JavaScript experience!

If Belgium's not your thing, we're also hiring talented engineers at our offices in New York and Tel Aviv.
A lot of the points you bring up re related to cost. Here's the thing about cost, let's say it costs $100k/year to hire a good software engineer capable of writing scientific code (able to program and test complex algorithms, write HPC code, turn whitepapers into code), which might even be an underestimate depending on how benefits are paid out and the area. You can also fund 3 more grad students for that kind of money. The grad students will directly convert a PI's money into authorships while the software engineer's contribution will be only indirect, and likely take years to pay off.

Plus, with only a single software engineer, there's a good chance you get unlucky and end up with someone clueless/lazy. You would probably need 3-4 software engineers to make a functioning team with best practices and hedge your bets against accidentally hiring someone who sucks. So now we're talking 10+ grad students.

Open source software is a bit different because many labs can band together to fund things they find useful. But again there are still issues with cost-effectiveness. I'm guessing most lab contributors to OSS would want some sort of quid-pro-quo which may not be realistic for all OSS projects. And by funding OSS you are also funding competing labs' abilities to use the same features you use, which is good for science in general but not good for people's careers sometimes
