Then I don’t understand your definition of minimal look. To me that mean no effect such as your rainbow colors, no fluff, only the content and minimum amount of styles to do the layout. But then you need some content for this. It can even just be a short description of you and what you’re good at, what you enjoy, or what you’re looking for in the future, or anything else that you want to share.

Minimalism is about limiting yourself to the minimum necessary to communicate a message or make something usable, in the case of a website the minimum is the raw content. That means that visually you would only have the actual content, without distractions. What you did is instead to remove it, which results in an almost empty page that isn’t interesting to visit.
As an MCSE from the late 90s, I can tell you with oldfart-confidence that you can rely on Microsoft maintaining a landscape where you can be an MS-only sysadmin for decades to come. Sure, the salaries might not be stratospheric, but corporate AD & GPO work will be never-ending. There are lots of businesses running on Windows laptops and desktops and that ain't changing.
I recently tried learning Tachyons, I couldn't get the hang of it, until I was on the train with no internet and I only had an example blog site loaded, and the table of styles. I was able to put together my new website theme in an hour.
Linkpool Launches Chainlink Market
Does that mean that they'll offer a full refund if your travel plans change, since tickets get more expensive closer to the day of the flight anyway?
The producers don’t have market access and the middlemen have inverted normal market powers. If a producer lowers price, that means the PBMs percentage cut goes down. So they cut away market access. So the lower the price the less you sell. The higher the price the more you sell...

The people in the middle of this getting shafted are uninsured who are forced to pay imaginary list prices and don’t get any rebates. Now the producers are trying to just sell generics at the post-rebate level, but the media field by lobbyist are calling them out like it’s a bad thing. Because it threatens the con game of the PBM/Insurance/Pharmacy cabal (yes they often end up all owned by the same corporation), while they are pointing fingers at the producers who just want market access and fair competition.
HAHAHAHA! Having not met Joe I don't actually know, but I presume that is a legit picture.
Then the user will be authenticated by the court, and you will have to make your case that without the court's intervention, you could not be certain of the requester's identity.

This isn't black and white. It is legally ok to question the validity of GDPR data subject requests.
> a measurement is meaningless without tolerances/margin of error

Reporting a value with too many significant digits is the same as reporting an incorrect margin of error, which (arguably) makes the value wrong.
Thank you for your answer!

Oh, you can - you just had better make sure you have the Right Opinions before you do. If you wonder what the Right Opinions are, browse through LinkedIn and see what's getting "upvoted".
I've heard an observation that Agile as practiced in the real world is often basically "tiny waterfalls."
Yeah, sometimes. Any poorly behaving (e.g. aggressive) dog can be scary, especially larger ones.
It doesn't matter if it's faster or has more features, it is hard to get a foothold in the Smartphone market. Windows Phone was better than Android IMO, it had a much cleaner UI ( Compared to Android 2.3), better battery management and was much easier to develop. But at the end of the day , developers just did not write apps for it.

HarmonyOS will end up in the same boat. Devs won't write apps for HarmonyOS because it wouldn't have users and users wouldn't buy Huawei because it doesn't have apps. It's a chicken and egg problem which is really hard to solve.

This happens in the concert scene. I was in a fan community where there was a spill of drama over someone feigned a disablement to get disabled seating tickets. They were outed and it was messy.
This leads to two questions:

(1) if it’s a small but critical part of the economy, could it make sense for it to switch to a centralised model?

(2) what happens when we have “enough” services?
I’m pretty sure most contracts only cover what you have created on company equipment/time. It may not even be enforceable if your company tries to go farther. But it is true that you don’t want to deal with a legal battle against a potentially large and hungry corporation during the early stage of a side gig.

I’ve also heard that if you are employed in a specific sub field such as eg airline booking software, and you start a side gig doing exactly that, your employer has a stronger case that you used trade secrets or whatever to strong arm themselves into ownership. Even if you don’t really use anything proprietary and your employer doesnt truly have any secret sauce

I am a software engineer and I have two monetary side projects, neither of which conflicts with my work and I don’t worry about them. I don’t think my employer wants to own a small food e-commerce business or a mobile game!
To be clear, community murders like this happened all the time in US history. The thing that makes this special is that the man killed was white and actually guilty of crimes.

It would likely be very problematic for the security model as it is crucial that you only sign your own requests that you understand what they do. I guess you can technically sign someone else's request made with your identification number today as most service don't use QR codes for presence verification. In general I am also not sure that further expanding, and blurring the line, of what you can do with BankID is a good idea. If anything I would like more limits.
The very first code snippet is a reimplementation of 'chunk' that is at least quadratic. Run away.
Don't do this ...

If you build a side project without your employers knowledge, especially if it's in a similar space, and you are successful ... your ex-employer and their investors will make your life very very difficult. In my experience, companies don't care if you're working on a non-competing idea. Just get clearance before hand.

No need to take a risk here.

This entire culture described in this article is so fucking wrong on so many levels it’s disgusting.
The cultural gap between American and European work ethics has never been as wide as today.
Instead of fighting for better welfare policies and a fairer system, the answer is inevitably “hustle more”.
Shame on all this bullshit.
Show HN: An intuitive API client for SEC filings
This is a review of the documentary covering a 'Town Bully' who had evaded authorities and continued to harm people repeatedly. In order to protect the community, a group of vigilantes murdered them, and the community refused to issue any statements to authorities regarding anyone's involvement.

I think broadly, I wonder what the place of vigilanteism like this should serve. The sentiments to protect the community against a man who isn't being recieved adequate justice- this in my opinion seems to echo the justification of other movements I'm aware of. There's often community discouse online on what to do with known bad actors when moderatorship isn't adequate for example.
When a child is small it can be disingenuous to always praise them for being 'smart' or 'clever' even if it is true.

Eventually even if they are top 1% in their home town, when they go to a University and surround themselves with other 1% students all of a sudden that feeling of I can get by because I'm smarter than everyone vanishes, even if they are in the top 20% of the new University.

It is much more beneficial, at least in my opinion to praise your children for working hard, or for working out a solution rather than simply calling them 'smart or 'clever'.

There will always be someone smarter than you (unless you are some genius), and learning to accept this early on and know that by working hard you can also accomplish as much as the genius, although you may need to work harder if it doesn't come as naturally, is very important to instill in youth.

If 7-10 PM are terrible hours for you, consider using 5-8 AM as the hours for your side project.
Depends on what you've signed, what state/country you're in, and how much the company cares even if it's technically a violation.
Exactly! Barbershops are a unique place and great to spend an hour or an hour and half once a month chatting with everyone. Plus a proper haircut with a straight razor around the edges and neck, followed up by a cool/warm towel to clean everything off, and after-shave applied.

Its $33 for that with a solid beard trim; mine is at 3-4" and he keeps it looking nice.
Sounds like you're selling when it's low and buying when it's high.
I think it's reckless to make claims like this even with genuinely useful technology because it triggers the "Arrogant engineers think tech is the answer to everything" response which leads to people in other fields dismissing things out of hand that could actually be worthwhile.
Most people lack both breadth and depth. So don't worry about going too broad... you probably won't get there.
Not really a question about the article, but just a thought/recommendation.

Every now and then I check the Mullvad blog to see if any new servers have been added, or features I should know about, etc etc. In essence, things that pertain to me as an end user. Stories like this, or new servers, WireGuard being added, etc.

I always thought it would be cool to see some sort of article or blog post with a 2019/2020 road map, however. Just so I can see things that are upcoming or know what’s being worked towards. With VPN services, sometimes it feels kind of stagnant, as the only appreciable updates are new servers or new features. Plus, since I don’t use the Mullvad app itself, updates to it don’t really pertain to me all that much.

Idk, I’m rambling, just food for thought. A roadmap blog post would be cool imo.

Cisco Is Making It More Difficult to Use Pre-Owned Hardware

Rust Terminal Chat App
That's not a big real world issue though, but yeah if you want to provide 100% compatibility it would help a little. It's hard to justify the extra (less efficient & slower) encoding to support those few edge cases.

h.264 gives you good performance, hardware encoders/decoders, best compatibility. Most of the time just using it alone is the best value.

All that depends on how many videos you need to transcode though. If you just have a few, do all the main codecs.
Hot Zone is...not a good book.
Such a good show. Everyone should watch at least that first season.
Just talk to the VP before it becomes anything significant and get clearance. If you want to start something and they say no, then you know in advance and you can decide if you want to leave or not. If you start a serious side business and they find out without you having told them, then it's problematic. You signed a contract when you started.

If you didn't sign anything then you are free to do as you like. But this is probably an unlikely scenario.
That link doesn't work either
Ok. I'm still unclear on your point.

You are referencing cases where exploits were in the news. What does that have to do with vulnerability markets?

Are you saying that the IC used exploits only twice? And they were misused both times? What does that have to do with vulnerability markets?

I'm sorry, but I'm utterly lost. Can you please clarify?
I tried. I can't get up at 5am and be productive.
Are you proposing doing away with IEEE 754? That's probably the origin of all these extra digits.
I very much doubt it. Those would be new tickets, not a changed price on existing ones.
Not to mention that all providers of Mobile Bank ID (which, as you mentioned, is by far the most widely supported one) are private companies, mostly banks, which have no duty to take you on as a customer.

If you for whatever reason can't or won't get an account with a Swedish bank, you're effectively cut out from large parts of online services.

I really think the government needs to realize they should provide ID issuance digitally to ensure that no one is left out.
To me, these articles are like arguing that your should use Assembly over C or C over something like Ruby. Sure there are cases where lower level makes sense, but the vast majority of modern web development has no need to be at a low level.

I much prefer using Lodash because it's reliable and well documented. Everyone on my team knows what it does, knows where to find the documentation, knows where to find the examples, and knows where to find documentation of edge cases. Lodash also includes some wonderful shortcuts and edge case handling.

Seriously, the best part of lodash isn't the code. It's how freaking easy it is to understand and use. If you want to replace lodash, you need to look at everything the package entails - not just the actual lines of code.

Serious question: What do you think about that now?
I highly recommend the book Coyote America: A Natural and Supernatural History by Dan Flores. I had no idea of what coyotes went through in the recent history in America.
Personally one of the biggest red flags for me is when a developer doesn't use libraries and writes everything themselves. That opensource project with many contributors, that has been around for years is probably going to be better than what you can write in couple passes. There are obviously times when you need to do it yourself or the library truly is badly written but those times are rare.

This gets a bit weird in the JS optimization world because it is true that each library and parts of the library you don't use are going to be extra useless bytes the user has to download. With tree shaking removing the parts of the library you don't use I think this becomes less of an issue.
CSS has one major drawback - that is, there is no way to compose more complex objects from basic ones.

Say, I have a class:

foo {
color: #FF0000;
}

I want to now apply this class to another class:

bar(foo) {
background-color: #000000;
}

I want to be able to inherit from foo, but I can't do that and that's why we have these shenanigans of composable UI frameworks... there are some advantages to doing everything in the HTML but now we have repeating patterns in the HTML, such as in the OP's link

<a class="px-4 py-2 border-b-2 hover:border-purple-500 hover:bg-purple-100">Tutorials</a>
<a class="px-4 py-2 border-b-2 hover:border-purple-500 hover:bg-purple-100">Plugins</a>
<a class="px-4 py-2 border-b-2 hover:border-purple-500 hover:bg-purple-100">Features</a>
<a class="px-4 py-2 border-b-2 hover:border-purple-500 hover:bg-purple-100">Blog</a>

which is not extensible and creates duplicate code. You'd still have duplicate class names but I just have to change it once in the css instead of N different places in HTML.
I think part of the reaction here is the very idea of a horse. A horse! On a plane.

To read your link though, it says "reasonable" accommodation. It specifies that part of the assessment of reasonable accommodation is if the horse must be house broken.

Can you imagine having a non-housebroken miniature horse in your row with you? I find this hilarious and I hope it happens to me just for the story.

(i)Miniature horses.

(1)Reasonable modifications. A public entity shall make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or procedures to permit the use of a miniature horse by an individual with a disability if the miniature horse has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of the individual with a disability.

(2)Assessment factors. In determining whether reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or procedures can be made to allow a miniature horse into a specific facility, a public entity shall consider -

(i) The type, size, and weight of the miniature horse and whether the facility can accommodate these features;

(ii) Whether the handler has sufficient control of the miniature horse;

(iii) Whether the miniature horse is housebroken; and

(iv) Whether the miniature horse's presence in a specific facility compromises legitimate safety requirements that are necessary for safe operation.

(3)Other requirements. Paragraphs 35.136(c) through (h) of this section, which apply to service animals, shall also apply to miniature horses.
If security got to be the number one concern for whether things were deployed or not, then sure we could likely take a more conservative view.

However realistically k8s is in heavy deployment in a wide variety of industries including public sector, financial services, retail, technology ... and it's clear that this kind of concern is not the primary consideration.

There were banks in the UK (Monzo) deploying k8s almost 3 years ago (https://monzo.com/blog/2016/09/19/building-a-modern-bank-bac...)
I don’t think it’s that simple. The type of people this article profiles / is for are upper-middle class strivers and class climbers who want to be rich rich rich. Not people just struggling to get by (as far as I can tell)

Personally their lives aren’t affected by a better welfare system and they may even be the ones benefitting from an unfair system.

I try to be active in a local political organization that has the goal of more equitably rearranging society but I too am one of the fools trying to make money on the side mostly because I know the only way to get real power in this country is through wealth. And even though I want to change that, it takes someone who has already acquired wealth to be effective in doing so
> slightly more than half the time, 45.73490534578° is still going to be closer to the true value than 45.7349053457° is. By performing significant figure rounding,

That's not rounding, so I'll assume you meant "slightly more than half the time, 45.73490534578° is still going to be closer to the true value than 45.7349053458° is".

And that may be true, but if 50.0001% of the time one is closer to the true value than the other that's essentially meaningless.
> I don't think any humans were involved. Why would they be?

The question is not "can I contact a human if it all goes well and everything works perfectly?"

The question is "can I contact a human if it doesn't?"
Deadly viruses are not necessarily less contagious. Contagiousness has to do with a lot of things, including the duration you're able to transmit it (which is sometimes related to virulence because you're dead), the mode of transmission, and the setting its in.
Service animals are probably the best trained dogs you'll ever meet.
it seems like a more extreme version of jury nullification. if it became widespread, it would essentially be the end of rule-of-law. but in isolated and rare situations, perhaps it's a beneficial escape valve? easy to suggest from my comfy office in a quiet suburb of course.
So instead of using a highly tested, modular, versatile tool - you're suggesting we copy-paste the functions we need?

Especially nowadays with tree-shaking and importing by module, I just don't think it makes sense unless you only need one or two functions.
Your point logically implies that you are against increasing life conditions of the people that are born poor in those countries with high birth rates.
100% true. This is the history of lynching in America. Community murders where nobody saw a thing, and the justification was always that the murdered person was a degenerate who would not receive what the town thinks would be adequate punishment under the law.
Eleven ordinary twenty-somethings??? They're not ordinary at all. They are Spy Kids.
That is true. But it is the current state of the world and GDPR enables people to more effectively weaponize that.
They definitely have an incentive to take advantage of Google. If an airline regularly drops the price, and Google keeps refunding the price difference out of their own pockets, word will get out. People are going to preferentially book on that airline, knowing that the day before the flight they're going to get a big rebate.

That brand loyalty will remain even if Google kicks them off of their platform. Moreover, as more airlines get kicked off, Google is left with a smaller and smaller subset of airlines it is brokering tickets for.

These reading lists are lovely and promise a Better You, but I'll propose the following challenge:

* If you're at home, turn around and look at the bookshelf you've already accumulated. Did you really read all those books you so looked forward to when you first bought them? Or do you remember all the best bits from your favorite ones? Be honest now... the unbroken spine on your Godel Escher Bach suggests otherwise. Read what you have, before stressing on Kay's or others' lists!

* If you're at work, have you read all the wiki/docs/etc created by your team and neighboring teams? Do you understand the full architecture and implementation of the system you work with every day? Go read that, level up and become the most knowledgeable person on your team.
