And even with command line tools, a few extra features don't hurt. Going from GNU tools to the more barebone Unix stuff is often a pain. Things like no option for ls to sort by size, no "human readable" sizes, no recursive grep, etc... While some of these can be replaced by pipelines having a shortcut for common use cases is nice.

An example is "tar xvzf file.tgz". The "z" option is just a shortcut for "gzip -cd file.tgz | tar xvf -", but most people are quite happy with this bloat.
The best technical documentation I’ve seen at a company was written by a technical writer. Most companies don’t like hearing this because it costs more than adding an additional drag on your development teams to also become solid writers (good writing is real, time-consuming work). Having someone whose job it was to start from the perspective of your users, ask questions of the dev team along the way, and document the journey yielded enormously useful docs.
I decided to put 32 GB of Ram in my home desktop some months back. I knew I didn’t need that much, but I figured macOS (it’s a Hackintosh) would use it for file caching or some such.

To my disappointment, it goes completely unused more often than not. According to Activity Monitor, I currently have around 7 gb just sitting idle.

It is helpful. It may not provide the answer the OP wanted, but it provides the answer they needed.
Addons for Bulma
As a developer myself for many years, I take the following steps for a new project:
1- Familiarize yourself with the application, by using / testing all its functions

2- Understand the workflows within the user interface and then map each one of the workflows / business processes to the logical code and the logical code to the database calls / tables.

3- Once you have built that mapping (tree structure) then you can tackle each one of those functions without feeling lost in the entire code baseline

4- As you work on each of the workflows/ business processes you can start comment the code in your terms

5- IntelliJ provides functions to conduct dependency mapping of the code, and database tables to make sure you don’t have circular dependencies.

6- Once you have completed the walk through and identified the workflows / functions / business processes you can than put a weight on each of those. Large, Medium, Small size.

7- After completing that sizing, sit down with your manager and help him understand what each one of those means in terms of cost, schedule and performance.

8- if none of the above is done, you will have a really hard time coming up with a way to explain to the manager what will it take or when will it be done and how many people will it take if they give you a date to finish. Just because someone wants something done in their time, doesn’t mean it can be done in that time.

Last thought: please don’t get discouraged, if you feel stressed and pressured already, you have lost the battle. Do the best you can with the tools you have, even if it’s not someone else’s best.
There's definitely truth to the point that consumers might suspect poorer quality when eco-friendly labels are present.

When it comes to food, if I see two products on the shelf that are identical except that one is labelled "50% less salt" or "lite", I immediately come to the inclusion that the "healthier" one compromises taste for healthiness, leading me to select the "regular" product. Because why have two separate products otherwise?

Experience has definitely confirmed this for me. "Lite" pancake syrup (not maple) tastes noticeably worse than the regular stuff, and anything gluten-free that normally contains gluten, like bread, is typically disgusting in comparison to the normal product. (On the other hand, Cheerios cereal became gluten-free simply by changing the manufacturing or growing process to avoid cross-contamination, and that didn't bother me.)
Replying here since I can't reply downthread:

> First, you're assuming that legalizing heroin would result in a high quality pure product. Considering that heroin addicts are desparate for heroin, it's pretty likely that they would go to cheaper black market sources with the same quality problems we have today.

I don't feel like this is a genuine argument on your part. If it was available in an affordable, high-quality manner, very few people would continue to use dirty, cut and illegal versions.

I think legalizing it is a good start, but an ideal scenario are heroin treatment clinics like we see in Switzerland or Denmark. They are 100% free and obviously use pure drugs.

> Second, legalizing heroin would dramatically normalize it, very likely resulting in many more people becoming addicted to it. Even if the danger of the drug decreased, it would almost certainly be offset by the large increase in new addicts.

I don't think that everyone would start using heroin after it was legalized. Most people are still extremely afraid of it due to e.g. media characterisations. Even so, as I've already postulated, I don't think there's any inherent danger in using it, so it's really a moot point to be honest.
Did you? Of the many reasons listed, that is not one of them.
I'm guessing it's Magic Transit, since thats CloudFlare's latest thing, some other tweets suggested the same.
Last I checked Optane still cost more than RAM up to about 2 TB/server (dimms or drives). It does scale significantly higher in drive form though.
> The existence of the “fairy godmother” takes time out of the equation which is an important variable.

I know that good documentation takes time.

What you write about OneNote is interesting. The only caveat is that using Microsoft Windows would be extremely unproductive in this environment (it is embedded software which needs to run on a Linux platform, so using Windows for documentation creates a lot of additional friction).

I think this basically has the features of a Wiki in which you could insert emails and other help information, and whose organization can be ordered and evolved over time.

Do you have any experience with [Zim Wiki](https://zim-wiki.org/) (a Desktop Wiki software) or Docuwiki (which is tailored especially for documentation) ? I've used the former quite successful for personal information management (it is free software, with free as in "free speech", and it even runs under Windows). What I like especially about it is that it can be integrated really easy into version control with git, or use the existing git version control of the corresponding code.

At some points in my past, I've also used [Dokuwiki](https://www.dokuwiki.org/dokuwiki) very, very successfully as member of a group. For other environments, wikis do not seem to work so well - I am still struggling to understand what makes the difference.
Even then, the principle still stands. If you want to pay off government debt, budget for it and pay it out of general revenues (minus carbon tax) or cut spending. Don't tie to a specific tax from a specific policy - because then you're incentivizing government behaviour that is not conducive to what the tax is trying to solve, like the fact that you may want to raise or lower the carbon tax not because it is good environmental policy, but because it is good for lowering the deficit (or funding more rooftop gardens or whatever) - which defeats the purpose!

Worse, once you start relying on this revenue, and this revenue goes down (as people use less carbon) - you're going to get yourself in trouble.
Lots of talk about TCL in this thread. Everyone should be familiar with the TCL/Guile and GNU scripting story. Also Ousterhout’s dichotomy is a useful concept to understand:

I think you still don’t get what the previous poster was saying. If you (I don’t mean you personally, but the left generally) constantly call a group of people racist and engage in ridiculous histrionics about how they are the cause of all of the world’s problems, they aren’t going to listen to anything else you have to say. They’ll listen to anybody else who doesn’t say those things, even if that person is an obvious idiot and hypocrite. I don’t know that even a simple majority of people on the left really agree with the full “woke” progressive agenda, but you guys do a terrible job of condemning bad behavior directed at folks in “flyover country.”
Anyone who says that an electric car is just some batteries and an electric engine should read about the massive, complicated supply chains necessary to build cars at scale. Throw in regulations and taxation issues - which are different in virtually every market - and you have a huge operational nightmare.

It's one thing to build a car in your garage by sourcing parts from around the world, and another to build 1M cars in a giant factory
I was talking to a big wig at Ford the other day, without too much detail, he works on their EV program. He admitted they are behind and Tesla is actually way ahead of the competition in many areas.

It _is_ difficult to put a battery and electric engines in a car and they've run into difficulties. Though it sounds like they're on their way to putting out a decent EV, and he thinks they and others will eventually catch up.

He also thinks Telsa will ultimately be killed by Chinese battery manufactures, which I thought was interesting.
YouTube did not actually kill their competition. Other sites may not have the videos you're looking for, but that's not due to lock-in. Creators can upload their videos to multiple sites without losing their original audience. They'd certainly do that if ads on YouTube became unbearable.
I got one of my best jobs because I was able to implement a feature that was probably never used by a single customer. It was definitely a checkbox item, our main competitor offered it so we had to as well.

No, we can’t stop global warming without smashing capitalism...that’s the whole point.
In the UK company car market, Tesla 3 seems be making a smash for similar reasons - a friend currently pays almost 6k in tax on their car - but is changing their fleet to Tesla's - and that 6k cost vanishes for same price to the company - effectively a 6k salary hike.

That will make a huge difference if marketed right.

While mondragon is a great example of a "scaled" cooperative. There are other (somewhat smaller, but still meaningful) examples. Take Cooperative Home Care Associates (http://www.chcany.org) around 1500 homecare workers in NYC, or the Arizmendi bakeries https://www.arizmendi.coop/ that have 5 bakeries and other businesses all growing and providing living wage jobs in the Bay Area.

We chose to use a holding company model for our cooperative https://www.staffing.coop so that we could have many startups and conversions underneath one holding company worker cooperative.
Mozilla may be kind enough to have those settings, but that doesn't mean other software will do the same thing.

It's nice that Mozilla may allow setting other DNS servers for DoH, and perhaps will eventually use OS-level settings, but what happens when some dumb ass developer does not?

Perhaps if they implemented DNS-over-TLS (DoT) instead/as well, then we could have encrypted DNS that is still monitorable.

I'm waiting for the day when malware will start using DoH and use Cloudflare as the DNS server. As someone who works in IT, will I have to block CF to prevent that possibility? How many bots have been taken down over the years because their C&C domains were taken over?
What are the backends for storage and database and how easy would it be to change or scale ? A quick search didn’t lead to any architecture information or tech stack details
I think that was true 6 or 7 years ago, but we’re heading completely to the other side. Typescript over javascript, rust over c, swift over objective-c, dart adding improved support for static typing, go thinking about generics, etc. I think everybody now go toward compilers or PL enforcing more ( and as soon as possible) rather than give the programmers more dynamic features.

“For example, if an electron wave packet is initially localized in a region of atomic dimensions (i.e., 10−10 m) then the width of the packet doubles in about 10−16 s. Clearly, particle wave packets spread out very rapidly indeed (in free space): For instance, after 1 ms, the width will have grown to about a kilometer.”

“Note that a very narrow initial wave packet instantly becomes infinitely wide, but with a phase which is more rapidly oscillatory at large values of x. This might seem strange — the solution goes from being localized at one point to being "everywhere" at all later times, but it is a reflection of the enormous momentum uncertainty of a localized particle, as explained above.”

Thanks for taking the time to answer! It's great to hear the system has good usability on multiple platforms once set up.

I guess my problem has been trying to make things perfect at once, and learning about subkeys and revocation certificates and how they apply to pass (they don't, I think) is a lot of work.

And once we are here, we can remove multiplication as it can be sufficiently approximated by a plus operator. This will make the UI cleaner and UX neater.

Do not listen to those pesky customers who whine they have to press "+" button lots of times.
Interesting. That sound like what is most helpful for a new developer is any information which would help him to do the mapping, to "connect the dots", is this correct?

I am wondering if it would help to have a document which takes the whole list of requirements from the requirements specification, and explains how each requirement is realized in the code. (Or of course, if it is still missing, in which way and where it is missing, and what would need to be done to add it).
The context is very relevant though. Epstein already was a known, convicted sex offender by the point he was visiting MIT Media Lab with his young ladies of questionable status in tow. It's not relevant to the matters at hand that you, a random person who wasn't there, was not aware of the context.

You can't remove this question from its context. The people at MIT Media Lab who were worried about it certainly were aware of the context, and they were worried, but ultimately forced to go along with it because their boss wanted the money too badly.

Also, enough with the "just asking questions". Instead of asking lots of questions, just go read the relevant articles and learn the truths directly, rather than requiring people to spoonfeed you through HN comments.
It was more generic than that (see mention of beyond carbon). Otherwise we’d still be heavily promoting diesel as the clean alternative to gasoline. The cargo ship was just something to exemplify the point of taxing for destroying the environment. You’re free to pick any example you feel suits better and the principle will still apply.
Cloudflare’s business also depends on not messing with your traffic, right? It would certainly be easier for them to get your users’ content than for Amazon to do the same, but I think you still have to accept that risk with either. “Hypothetically being able to but not doing it” isn’t a whole lot of confidence if I were hosting some kind of shady website.

This is a use case where persistent memory really shines. Its about 10x slower but you can get 1.5TB or it for less than $10,000. You don’t have to use the persistence - you can treat it as RAM.
Meanwhile, incidence rates of thyroid cancer continue to rise.
I agree with you.

Imagine the demands: Have only founders, visionaries that code. That won't work and doesn't make sense.

It is perfectly fine to simple doing your job, however this "doing" has shifted. It is not about slavishly following specs, it is about feedback in complex situations. No need to be a prodigy, just give sufficient feedback.

And BTW: Camille Fournier wrote one of the best books on professionell development as a software engineer. It is called "The Manager's Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders Navigating Growth and Change". This is golden.
Not the parent comment, but having driven the model S, X, and 3 (and decided against buying for reasons completely unrelated to the cars themselves), I can probably offer the following insight:

The center of gravity for a tesla, regardless of model, is absurdly low. The end result of this is that driving one feels like the car's running on rails, even with the tightest turns. Couple that with the use of electric motors with instant torque (providing likely north of 750 hp/torque with the model S), you've got a car which gives you options.

You can race it around and drive like a jerk, sure. But even as a civilized driver, the capability to do almost anything with the car is an enabling factor.

---

Don't get me wrong; you can get this from a few other electric cars (the Jag i-Pace comes to mind). But that's probably the advantage the Model 3 has over others; it can maintain the driving dynamics/experience against competition a few Toyota Camrys more expensive.
Where Did You Go Go?
In 20 years in soft. dev. industry I tried almost everything to improve estimates: delphi, planning poker, various formal techniques, points and estimation by compare, etc. Here are my rules.

1. In general I found that for rough estimate you can just multiply by 2 for a very experienced developer, by e (2.7...) for a developer with less domain expertise and by pi (~3) for an unexperienced developer.

2. If you need more precise estimates, then:

2a. do discuss every feature/story in depth, since it provides various opinions and help to find unexpected problems

2b. don't use points. Days are more reliable unit

2c. break down every feature to stories and every story to tasks. More granular items -> better estimates

That is it.

They (possibly) do when they're both under the same Director of IT.

Security is everyone's responsibility in an organization, and the folks in Helpdesk (ideally) want to prevent intrusions just as much as the NetOps folks.
Putting aside most of your earlier comment,

This article seems to conflate organic farming with sustainability.

Organic farming resorts only to non-synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. Unless these are provably bad, in which case some synthetic substances are allowed.

It feels awkward having to state, in the most technological age mankind has seen, that the divide between organic and synthetic is not the same as the one between sustainable and unsustainable, nor between safe and unsafe for human beings.

I suspect one of the Portuguese wineries mentioned in the article to be Esporão, that has recently converted to Organic Farming. This was not, coincidently, done in a inconspicuous way, but rather publicized by corporate PR in sustainable farming venues, rather disingenuously I should say.[1][2]

On one occasion, and for lack of time for QnA, I didn't get the opportunity to ask a very simple question:

- Once engaged in Organic Farming, a farmer is limited in the range of permissible practices, and synthetic pesticides are off limits. On the other hand, if engaged in Integrated Farming, a well known farming standard in the EU, a farmer can still proceed according to the precepts of Organic Farming if one so chooses. Why, then, is that company committed to Organic Farming?

I suspect the reason is the possibility of labelling their products as such.[3] Marketing - not love for the environment - is behind the move.

So regarding the headline question, soft PR avoids the accusation of greenwashing in a world of corporate virtue signalling.

I don't have an answer to the why, but I can say that in the 5+ years I've been using it daily, the issues I've faced have been reciprocated by others others, and GitHub reflects this.

Some of the issues are solved by the likes of K8s, but many of us don't want or need K8s for our use cases. Other issues are resolved by other told, and yet still others are only resolved with effort (you still can't expose/bind a port range, e.g. 10000 UDP ports in Docker without killing your server).

Usually requirements are at a high level and if the previous team broke them down further in (scrum terms) user stories it would be more beneficial. If the stories are not available, then I would consider looking at the complete/done requirements first then worry about the new requirements. The intent is for you to understand what the application does and what functions are executed while you perform a given business process / workflow.

(Edit)
Forgot to mention one important factor. Make sure to build a good relationship with your manager so that he understands that you are doing everything you can to make this work. The conversation is better understood when the relationship is there. Keep him aware of the work you are doing so he understands it as well, and he will have the data upfront to share with the customers.

I work in medical devices so we have to produce a ton of documentation in a very specific format. I never understood why our devs have to spend a ton of time on producing not very good documents. We have a few tech writers who produce much better work but they are completely overloaded. I don't understand why management doesn't hire more writers to free up the devs and also to produce better docs faster.
For the print edition, the image is there to catch the eye of people that are interested in the general topic as they scan through the publication to determine what they want to read.
