The industry is very new. The rise and fall is natural (lolwat data mining?). But the function is not uniform. MongoDB might be one of the worst tools on the planet for relational data, but data that's only accessed by id and is dominated by variable length data? There's no better db on the market. Agile? Well, nobody's figured any of that stuff out yet, to say the least. We can't even estimate basic tasks still, so planning is strictly fucked until we can.

Additionally, there are so many things to learn, especially for up and coming developers that it's nearly impossible to select good tooling to learn in the first place. So you'll have them randomly spread across the tooling which, again, is indistinguishable from each other from the perspective of a new developer.

I guess my point is that you're complecting two orthogonal concerns: the process of figuring out this software thing (still in it's infancy), and the process of bringing up juniors. Consequently, what juniors do before they gain sufficient training shouldn't have much impact on the value of tooling. That is, unless the tooling in question causes the juniors to make unnecessary critical mistakes because the tooling encourages it. QED I suppose.
This makes a lot of sense. A large business doesn't rely on the average employee. The employee relies on the business for food, shelter, healthcare...everything.

It's just an inherently large imbalance, and the only way it doesn't exist is if there is a shortage of employees in the sector and the ROI per employee is high. This is a pretty small percentage of jobs.

Unions are one way to try to curb exploitation, but I don't know how effective they are in practice. If retail workers tried to unionize what is to prevent the millions of people who are equally qualified from replacing the entire union?

It is widely accepted that the human adult needs sleep to fully function on a physical, emotional and mental level - but just how much sleep is enough. What will happen if you don't get it. What if you do sleep each night but still feel awful each morning.

The answer to this question is in study the sleep cycle. Much research has been done by sleep clinics worldwide and it is now known that most of the physical restorative sleep occurs within the first three hours of sleep - which is why most of us can function on a physical level even after short bursts of sleep. This is not to say that this is all the sleep we need - it just means that you should not obsess over the number of hours you receive each night. Even those of us who manage the recommended 7-8 hours per night don't always feel rested and alert - and this can be for a number of reasons and boils down to sleep quality versus sleep quantity.

Politics in SF are so corrupt that it's laughable. The city is going to have to start rezoning soon or something is going to snap and companies will move away or the best people will decide it's not worth the hastle and go to other parts of the country and start their own startups.

Thanks for the reply. I have tried Hugo earlier but found it confusing due to so many locations for template files (_default/? baseof.html? single.html? list.html? hard to remember all this stuff). What would be a good alternative tool where I can just place a few template files in a single location and it would be sufficient?

I have also looked at Jekyll but it is Ruby-based. I know Python. If the tool is Python-based then it would help me because it would allow me to customize its functionality or make it do some niche things that the tool does not support by writing some Python code. I have looked at Pelican too but customizing it seemed daunting to a beginner like me.

So I guess I am looking for a something simple, written in Python and easily customizable. Any suggestions?

First vaper reported dead after mysterious lung disease
Completely agree. The case was clearly a result of bad ingredients -- yet it has been flogged by the media and prohibitionists as proof that vaping is just as dangerous as tobacco.

I, for one, embrace vapetopia -- the cognitive libertarian's dream of mental states on demand.
It's terrible that the large tech companies are so arrogant that they just terminate an account without a reason or a way to appeal. So this guy should get a chance to argue.

But I also know that every time I read a story in HN about X company terminating my account for no reason there is usually a good reason for the termination. It usually comes down to a user/developer violating the terms of service. I also know that if there was a way to appeal, everyone would do it, and clog the system, since there would be nothing to lose.

I'm conflicted. But anyhow good luck to him.
this site suddenly becomes conservative and doesn't even think progress is possible

Progress is possible. The thing is, that progress doesn't necessarily take the form that people wish it would take in their utopian fantasies. If we use history as a guide, we find that progress almost always takes a form with would have been unimaginable to past generations, if not at times even a little shocking to them. For example: The progress of agricultural technology, and its ability to feed people with unprecedented efficiency would have been considered wonderful and utopian by our forebears, until they started looking into some of the disturbing details.

A realistic, nuanced view of issues involving human factors and group psychology often incorporates elements of both the progressive and conservative mindsets. Both viewpoints are needed for effective, balanced government.

The problem is that Rust has two issues:

1) In Rust, you don't pay for what you don't use. This means that a lot of stuff tends to be an external library since not using something means you can exclude it COMPLETELY. The issue is that things tend to get atomized more finely than most languages would do.

2) Rust is trying to not bake things into a standard library too early. This is a good comment about standard libraries from Python:

"The standard libraries constitute one of Python’s great features, but they tend to suck up all the oxygen. Programmers are reluctant to write libraries that duplicate their functions, so poor libraries in the standard set persist. Only a few people, like Reitz, are willing to write modules that compete with the standards."

From Logic to Algebra: After embedding a KG in its corresponding vector space, each symbolic elements (entities and relations) will be assigned a vector. Moving from symbols to vectors is equivalent with moving from logic to algebra. In other words, after mapping a KG to a vector space, logical rules can be converted to their corresponding algebraic formula. More concretely, considering the target vector space provided for the KG, one can derive the formula for each logical rules. Therefore, as there is an equivalent vector for each of the symbols, there will be an equivalent algebraic formula for each of the logical rules.

Uber feels different for some reason. Maybe it's the lack of transparency with salary. With a regular job, you get paid x dollars an hour. That's it. You may get paid minimum wage, but at least you know it's minimum wage. With Uber, a lot of people come in with expectations of a high salary (falsely perpetuated by Uber), then end up making a whole lot less. Sometimes less than minimum wage.

Maybe it's the semi-predatory loans program. These drivers take out loans for cars, thinking they're gonna get paid a good salary, but then they make minimum wage and get locked into payments.

I can't shake the feeling that Uber is conning its drivers. And that we're culpable.
This sums it all
That's why I like living in Houston. Sure it's Texas but it's so much more diverse here than most cities. And the food is wonderful.
That's a good point that Uber raise awareness of class difference. But I'm not sure the best vehicle (heh) is having a member of the proletariat drive you around.
For me, it’s a combination of insufficiently advanced new features, combined with a loss of fingerprint ID and forced switching to Face ID.

I absolutely do not want the latter under any circumstances whatsoever, while I do find the former to be useful and desirable in some cases — just not for unlocking the phone.

I don’t mind if the device is capable of Face ID — I can always just completely ignore that.

But if it doesn’t have fingerprint ID, then I’m not interested. In that case, should I be in a situation where I am forced to buy a new device, then I will buy a refurb older device that can do fingerprint ID instead of a new one that can’t.

And so, I wait.
Awesome. Thank you for the suggestion. I will take a look at it.
Well, politeness dictates. I suppose I could lie. Or just refuse to answer.

These are not the only two options. There's a third activity most of us seem to have forgotten - to simply be.

For me, the very act of everyday living has become very enjoyable and fulfilling in recent years. Doing the dishes, cooking, gardening, sweeping the floor, putting out the trash. Those are not "chores", that's what life's made of. Some of it creative, some not, but the difference is you're simply present in the moment and in the world.
Maybe they want subsidies. The German econony is slowing and this is another reason: people delay the purchase of an ICE vehicle indefinitely (they're going to be banned by 2030s in almost every country), diesel sales are at all time lows (emissions compliance) and the auto industry is stuck with the inventory.

The center of Silicon Valley oscillates between SF and SJ on a roughly 10-year cycle, corresponding to major technology generations (and loosely, to bubble/build cycles). It was around Redwood City in the early 1970s (Ampex, Oracle), moved to Palo Alto and Cupertino for the PC/workstation era in the late 70s (Sun, Cisco, Apple, Seagate) down as far as San Jose and even Scotts Valley during the 80s (Adobe, Memorex, Borland), started moving north to Mountain View in the early 90s (SGI, Netscape), moved back to SF for the dot-com boom, moved back south to Palo Alto and Mountain View in the late 90s (Yahoo, Paypal, Google, Facebook, YCombinator), then moved back to SF starting in 2006 and significantly accelerating in 2011 (Reddit, AirBnB, Stripe, Twitter, Zynga, Medium, etc.) It's still in SF, though it remains to be seen where the next technology generation will take hold or if it'll even be in the Bay Area.

The fact that the CDC is involved means this is beyond a simple agenda.

There is something going on. It may even turn out to be unrelated to vaping.

However, incidents like these are why the CDC exists.
Uber has an advantage bc the transition to fully autonomous self-driving will take years to decades to realize, not only on a technological level but on a political level.

Any developers including individuals and enterprise developers should be treated equally. I cannot figure out why the developer's account would be terminated without any notices in advance. At least, Apple must provide the proof to justify the termination action. Unfortunately, there's nothing so far.

There indeed exists controversy whether developers can build applications with interpreters which can be the container of other "apps". But, what about Wechat or Alipay. Both of these two apps give their own developers ability to create so-called "Small Program" which could potentially "be harmful to the ecosystem of AppStore". Apparently, powerful enterprises can do anything without any punishment while the single developers have always to be cautious.
Most content is either just plain bad or manipulative. We should welcome the death of most content. Content makers that do it for the love of it rather than the monetary reward typically make much better content.

The biggest barrier is that there is no money in honest business. In other words, people want to pay for useful content (e.g. wikipedia is still up and running), it's just what they want to pay is nowhere near multi-billion-dollar valuation that VCs are used to. Can Google Search, Maps, YouTube, Chrome, Android and so on exist without ads and tracking? Absolutely. It's just this business would become non-profit.
I 100% agree, and I think that most people today need more guidance to achieve this than a snapshot of the target state.

This is true. Our starting point isn’t zero deaths, it’s the hundreds of thousands of people in the US who die due to smoking tobacco.

If you cut that in half, that’s a win.

This is what harm reduction is all about.
We don't need to ban ads. Doing so would be unrealistic. What we need is to ban tracking (through cookies and fingerprinting), and return to content-based advertising. This not only gets rid of privacy invasion and surveillance, but also of monopolization of the web, as ad money goes to many sites and their content creators.

> The case was clearly a result of bad ingredients

The fact that California is also seeing incidents would seem to argue against this at least somewhat.

It's certainly possible for this to be bad ingredients, but most of the cannabis-based stuff is mostly legal in California, so there's a decent negative feedback loop if you supply people with garbage.
Sucks that you said that you don't like the idea of missing things, because some of the best narrative games in recent years, in my opinion, had bits that you could miss. Like Detroit: Become Human, which shows you how each chapter could have branched and what path you ended up taking, or Neir Automata, where you beat the game once and you've seen maybe 30% of the content in the game, because subsequent playthroughs are from other perspectives. Or Life is Strange, which has similarly complex branches like Detroit Become Human does, and the main character can rewind time and try different approaches. Or Persona 5, where it doesn't give you enough time to max out each NPC's social link, so you will miss some side stories the first time through the game, and there's bad or alternative endings you can trigger depending on what you do.

If you're into non-narrative games at all, then there's some games with novel mechanics coming out. Two of my favorites recently are Into The Breach, which is a tactics game where you know exactly how the enemies will attack, and your goal is to use your mechs to move, stop, block, or kill the bug threatening the attack so that it attacks somewhere else or doesn't finish the attack, where it turns it into a thinky puzzle.

Or Baba is You, a puzzle game which is just full of 'holy crap I didn't realize you could DO that!' moments, where you push words around to form sentences which govern the rules and mechanisms for the level, which you have to manipulate in order to solve the level.

And if you haven't tried The Witness yet, Jonathan Blow spent 7 years dreaming up every possible way in which you could possibly change-up a 'draw a line through a maze' puzzle, and the deeper you get into that game, the more crazy things you'll discover that he came up with (I would have never come up with half the crap he did, and it gets reaaaally creative). There's several 'Holy crap I didn't know you could DO that,' moments in that game too. But it's not a narrative game, not really. More of a hint of a narrative.
Tesla runs off of Salesforce, not Shopify. You can pretty easily validate this but viewing the website resources and Ctrl-F-ing for "shopify" and "salesforce".
If this is true why did they constantly inundate you with ads to upgrade to premium? They should have been trying to actively hide the fact they have premium.
eBay started out as a tool to connect you between a seller and a buyer, evolved to empower merchants, because of competition they became a landlord mall operator. Their DNA has always been to drive traffic for growth.

Amazon started out as a store to sell you a book, grew selling you other that can be stocked and packed like a book, evolved to ask others to sell too, because of competition they became a landlord mall operator. Their DNA has always been to drive traffic for growth.

Shopify gives you a dumbed down version of a selling tool. It was easy enough, paired up with Alibaba's rise, a subculture of dropshipping dropsurfing gurus selling you on how easy it is, they've now convinced most people to give it a try.

But their DNA has never been to drive traffic for growth. There's been no indication that's their strategy as they've only unveiled more tooling for owner operators.

Eventually they'll peak, run out of people wanting to give it a try and the whole thing collapses.

Shopify is more like Rovio having a hit with Angry Birds, growing rapidly, then watching sales drop 40% shortly thereafter.

Also, having down Shopify dev back in 2014-2016, their app ecosystem is a mess, more akin to a medium sized POS company's third party ecosystem.

came for the comment wars: was disappointed

More seriously, there's ways to deflate the heat.

1) avoid use of language like liar or flat out wrong - the first goes to Intent more than correctness, the second is as hyperbolic as the million wrong things which motivated it.

2) I beseech you, consider but you are wrong: appeal to their better nature, posit the alternative view.

2a) be prepared to acknowledge you may also be wrong

3) Hanlon's razor

4) Some people are just dicks but you don't have to feed it.

5) remember English is a federated language and to a welchman a faggot is just a tasty meatball wrapped in caul-fat. Sometimes what people write is confused or confusing and it can be reader or sender miscommunication or.. both.

6) thomism: do not attempt to rebut or convert. State your view and restate it. Sometimes works but can be infuriating.
