This is shown clearly in the employment dynamics of flagging retailers. As prospects become tighter and "making goal" becomes more and more overemphasized (preempting perks for labor, like abundant working hours and raises), employees with the most experience are overrepresented among the first to leave. Why stick around? They're skilled but obviously not valued.

Changing requirements is fine, though, so long as there's a discussion. Engineering explains what it might involve and the PM gets to decide if they think the change is worth it. Generally once a week is fine. Changes at sub-weekly cadence suggest deeper problems that need to be sorted out.

My personal preference is for very fine-grained stories rather than giant chunks of acceptance criteria. The latter tend to turn into week-long wanderings and get edited over and over. Whenever I've been able to I've coached PMs towards smallest possible units of value.
How does one find out if their account info was part of this?
I don't understand why they didn't translate the dialog outside the game, as a sort of post-process graphical filter which detects speech bubbles and other text in the game and overlays the translated version. Apart from a few diehards flashing custom ROMs to SNES cartridges, I'd expect almost everyone playing it is doing so through an emulator, so this should be easy.

I can see an argument against it that this affects the "purity" of the game compared with the translation being done in the ROM itself, but I can also see a counter-argument that running the original unaltered ROM with what amounts to subtitles is a "purer" approach.

Edit: Just to be clear, I'm talking about a fan translation which is overlaid on the game by pattern matching the image of the equivalent original text on-screen, not an attempt at automatically detecting and machine translating all dialogue.
No, pumped hydrostorage is enormously cheaper, if you already have the dam. I also think some of your assertions about lead–acid batteries are wrong, but they're plausible.
A friend failed a polygraph. She handled money in a resturant and was a scrupulously honest person. She had a genetic health condition and it was probably responsible.

But they knew her character, and even though she didn't pass she didn't have any problem or lose her job.

What the hell? "Luddites"? Excel is fantastic, and I would bet on the competence/brightness of anybody using it for anything complex.
Wow, where do we start here? First of all, it is much more effective to team with a tech lead or engineering manager to remain semi-realtime up to date with the status of where things are in engineering rather than asking status update questions directly. To not understand that is a level of naivete that prevents a product manager from operating at the basic level of competence to be considered a senior IC.

Second of all, I've seen two kinds of product managers. One kind looks at software development estimates as commitments to be contractually adhered to. The other treats software development estimates as assets/investments with risks to be managed.

Which kind is more effective? Well, which computation accomplishes more results, the one that doesn't halt and logs the same line over and over, or the one that does halt and additionally does the thing it set out to do?
If that was the only point of distinction, I'd be right there with you. But the fact that natural diamonds are quite likely to have been mined using what amounts to brutal slave labor (even the ones that are "certified ethical," because these people have no qualms about subverting the certification process) is a pretty big issue for me.
You have hit the nail right on the head!

The costs(in various dimensions) of an Engineering decision in projects of this magnitude is borne by the whole population itself. Therefore the populace must have a seat at the decision-making table to choose amongst alternatives.
I honestly can't tell if this is a terrible practice or just the worst possible way to describe it for the HN crowd.

People who end up in manager roles tend to be people persons and some use very touchy-feely language. I'm personally put off by all the references to his own anxiety as just one example. That doesn't necessarily mean he's actually a terrible manager.

Part of his job is to make sure things get delivered in a timely fashion. If that's not happening, then feeling stressed by it isn't unreasonable, but the article sounds like he's just trying to manage his emotions rather than get deliverables from his people in a timely fashion.

I'm not posting this to dog the author. I'm posting this to suggest that his framing may reflect the fact that his job involves managing people rather than things.

If it were framed differently, the exact same practices might sound much more reasonable and palatable to people here on HN who are overall reacting fairly negatively to this.
If companies insist on “data driven” they get a passive aggressive style (2018)
It's anyway debatable that the parent's earnings should be taken into consideration. I knew plenty of people whose parents were unwilling to finance their college or they were even estranged. These students got no aid or a reduced amount because of that.

Just another way society punishes those not lucky enough to be born to the right parents.
A couple of additional notes:

* Regarding performance: a compiler could devirtualize the virtual/interface calls if it can prove there are no necessary dynamic dispatches

* contracts additionally differ from interfaces in that the former are generic over multiple types while interfaces are only generic over one type.
All of these ridiculous regulations will only make it impossible for someone without deep pockets to start an online business.
Really good point there. If Uber can charge $1.01 for something it pays $0.99 for, then it might have a sound business model. But if it's in a perpetual state of offering discounts down to $0.98 to keep users buying rides, then it probably doesn't, and to relabel the underpricing as a marketing effort is just obscuring that.
Nope. It does not have to do with centralization. It has to do with what the companies decided to do.

Servint, Erols, DedicatedNow, DigitalNation, etc started before Amazon. So did EV1 or Choopa. They simply played a game of hardware rather than software tooling. As the hardware became more and more commoditized the software became more and more important. C/Panel and Plesk did not cut it. That's why Amazon/Google/Azure won.
I imagine that would be hard and slow. You'd have to typeset everything yourself, to boot. And modify the emulator to handle it. Patching the rom would be far more portable.

I've been in such a team.

Pairing was optional, but the team chose to do it, so everyone on the team had to do it.

It was hell.
I work in the industry. Fee schedules are an upper bound, but the lower bound is very hard to get numbers on and often approaches 0.

If I go in for a procedure at a medium sized specialist clinic they are going to take the fee schedule for this CPT, discount by my 20% expected contribution (or whatever), and then hope that the insurer pays them > 50% of the remainder.

A lot of the time my insurer will, but not always. Bigger systems negotiate their own fees and many doctors at larger clinics only track RVUs for each procedure (specifically because the clinics realize that paying based on insurance payout isn't fair or scalable, in that way RVU allocations act as a pool). But overall it's not a transparent system for the majority of people working within in.

Hi everyone, just letting you all know, it's no surprise that modern homo sapiens ancestors bumped uglies with other species in the genus of homo back in the day. The enlightening part of this article is there are some unknown species in homo that we have genetic evidence of, but no fossil record. The thing you should be fascinated by, there were many contemporary relatives to homo sapiens that could have been as much or somewhat as intelligent. But they all disappeared and we are all that's left. We either killed them all or snoo-snooed them out of existence because homo sapiens seemed to have spawned faster and had more offspring in comparison.

So, please stop relating this to dogs fucking or being surprised that different species can tango under moonlight. Please stop.

Yes, different species, of different genders, of the same genus can warm up at night and spawn little hellions 7-9ish months later.

There's plenty of evidence that these other homo species were sophisticated, like the neanderthal. As much, if not more, that ancient homo sapiens (at the time).

Does that make a new species? Maybe. Current taxonomy guidelines are not perfect. There are other taxonomy systems out there that would spell this out, just not considered the universal standard we all know today. The problem is, how do you draw sharp lines in a blurry distinction without just creating a new "species" for every sexual adventurous encounter that results in a screaming child.

At the end, this article was cool and we should all be excited over this.

Under the ACA, in and out of network must have the same cost sharing for ER care. It’s the risk you run having such a high deductible plan. But I’m sure you’ve saved monthly by paying lower premiums for such a low coverage plan.
So I checked, and there are no "official" current LineageOS builds for any Nokia phones (unless I'm missing something on https://download.lineageos.org)

There don't seem to be any builds anywhere for the 4.1 (is it an uncommon phone?)

For argument's sake, let's say you bought the 6.1, now your option is to download an "unofficial" ROM from some pseudo-anonymous person with an anime avatar from XDA, hosted on whatever free file hosting they can find today.

Don't get me wrong, I used Lineage when it was called Cyanogenmod, and it saved one phone from landfill which is great. But I'm older now, and I need my phone to work and work well - I really don't have time for problems like https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?s=76595163ac85....

It's a trade-off. I do agree that they should be optional. However, maybe you should try advocating for activities that promote team bonding that you also find fun. My office recently had a board game night that went pretty well. It was quiet and there were a variety of games, from silly stuff like Sorry! to very involved games like Secret Hitler. Both an introvert- and extrovert-pleaser. It's easy to just think something is bad and be annoyed about it; much harder to do something about it.

> For any software engineer truly suited to their job, the work required should already be "fun", in and of itself. If not, then said engineer is in the wrong line of work and should find something they would enjoy doing every day for the rest of their career.

The change you describe is still a little bit mystifying to me. People went from caring about privacy and freedom to being totally fine with listening devices in their homes owned by advertising companies in only about ten years.

I personally blame gasified social media that linked (over)sharing little dopamine hits. We basically used a Skinner box to retrain people to like having their privacy invaded and willingly participate.

I don't rule out the possibility that this was intentional and designed, but it seems more likely that we just hit upon it in the great search for a workable business model for the Internet after the dot.com crash. People forget that until surveillance capitalism nobody knew how to make the net into a sustainable business. Unfortunately the answer ended up being a more dystopian retread of the ad-driven business model of the old media we were trying to get away from.
A few years ago I read the diamond lobbyists were trying to require "synthetic" diamonds to have some sort of microscopic etching inside. Apparently the technology is getting so good even skilled diamond appraisers aren't able to tell the difference.

Why is how many times you can fly between two places relevant to how much medical bills cost? All you did was choose a metric that makes your argument appear more reasonable, even though they are entirely unrelated.

You also seem to be arguing that Europe healthcare is cheaper and therefore better, even though it obviously is not that simple (I'm sure you know it isn't that simple. That's just how your reply comes across). For example, if I get cancer I would much rather be in the United States, despite the problems with their health care system, simply because I have a higher chance of living.
I'm not sure PwC would be considered a household name. And BP has gas stations.

I think you mean HURD, Mach was from CMU and was used (along with code from BSD) as the underpinnings of XNU, the kernel underlying NeXTStep, MacOS, and iOS.

I think that artificial deadlines and stress exist because the team and management allow it to exist. A story should fit into a sprint, but it may spill into the following sprint, but you shouldn't sacrifice quality just because you tried to finish it within the sprint. And a team should stand up for themselves in this regard, as a team, because a team succeeds and fails together. If you sacrifice quality because of some artificial deadline you put in place then you're only going to suffer maintaining that later on.
This is actually a theorem called Conway’s Law.
For me, what is in a Kanban board is not enough info to be able to determine when I can help unblock other people on my team. I think this probably depends on how you use project-management software and what your team works on; for me, a teammate's item might list "Create pipeline to process dataset Y on hourly basis". If they are running into issues, I don't know if it's something I've seen before with that dataset, or that pipeline tech, or the processing script, or end-to-end latency, or XYZ. A standup helps clarify things somewhat

Also if a teammate is actively working on something that is a downstream dependency of something I am working on, then I can passively learn about requirements and expectations for my own work, become aware of issues ahead of time, etc.

That is some old school naming.
It's more than just dialog and speech. All the UI text needs to be rendered correctly, the menus, etc. Often there's modal dialog boxes on top which obscures partial words.

And games don't read very well with machine translation, so you'd still have to teach the system to overlay the correct English localization that was hand made.

All that might still have been easier than dealing with spaghetti assembly, but then you are faced with the daunting task of getting someone to actually download your executable. Patching a ROM is pretty well established process. Downloading an extra executable just to run a ROM in your native language is much less so.

I personally think brief dives into implementation / explanations of issues is fine. If something takes only 5 minutes to discuss between everyone, I'd rather do it while I'm already in a meeting, and having the whole team there helps opinions get heard. But this is just personal preference
I agree with you on these points. Especially the importance of being a team that doesn't sacrifice quality for calendar sparkles.

It's just that I've seen the evil twin version of sprints far more than the official version.
I agree 100%. As I have already stated in another comment I cannot fully express the frustration I deeply feel with people constantly proposing changes to Go that will turn it into something that is no longer Go!

I know where this specific proposal is coming from, but I feel that Robert and Ian are being pushed by the constant noise made by people coming from other languages, people who like those who made the horrible "try" proposal, seem to be trying really hard to ruin Go by turning it into yet another complex monster.

Not a day goes by without someone making a new proposal that is trying to change the very thing that made Go so unique and lovable!

All the proposals that has been made so far exists in several of the other popular programming languages. Use one of those if you really want the added complexity - leave Go just the way it is!

I think the minimum to be considered an IDE, you need to be able to edit, possibly compile depending on the language, and run/debug from within the same tool. By last loose definition, I've joked my most used "IDE" would be bash. I can edit with vim, compile/link with make/gcc/ld, and debug using gdb or run my bins directly.

I mean it's an integrated development environment in that I can access all of my tools from one centralized location, the bash shell, but certainly not integrated in the sense that I have a GUI that hides the nuances of commands of various tools behind menus and friendlier non-command-line names and making it appear that the half dozen or so tools are a single entity.

I also use Visual Studio for Windows development and I've been switching between VS Code and PyCharm for Python development.

But are git and svn an IDE? No. They are both merely source control management systems.

I worked at a tech company, three times my personal data was put at risk because someone at HR left their laptop in their car during a night on the town.

I asked if my personal data was stored in files downloaded to the laptop, they said yes.

When I asked why my data needed to be downloaded to the laptop and not limited to just online access they stopped responding.

This of course was the same company who mailed me my co-workers salary in spreadsheet form, twice because my name was similar to another manager.

Why that was necessary was beyond me too.
