This same exact thing happened with my startup. I was surprisingly the second engineer to trickle out, which is only surprising since I didn’t expect someone to leave before me. The clash of cultures made it difficult to integrate; different geographies, age brackets, experience, practices, tech stacks, you name it.

Overall, I agree with the theories proposed in response to your post — either incompetence of their leadership or favor to an investor. In our case, it was a bit of both and the latter part was clear beforehand. Their crudely constructed plan was to take our industry data to improve their models, but they were not privy to any of it so effectively all they bought was a bunch of tech they couldn’t manage to integrate since all of our tech leads left in the first two months. That’s what they get for not providing an incentive to stay at all, which again hints at both incompetence and a favor.
It's a step in the right direction, but hardware wise the lack of memory beyond 16GB annoys me. Even Apple, who notoriously kept it low for years, now offers 32GB for Pro models.

So the Surface probably works for some people, but not for me. The Surface 2 design seems like they're trying hard with the attention to details, so props to that.
I guess this bug is the real reason why I turned off auto-fill in the browser a while ago, because it acted weird a lot of times.
Also, maybe they are dragging their feet until they can throw out Intel and put an A-series chip in there.
You didn't have a choice. That was the whole problem!

Pacers in ultras largely serve a different purpose. They’re there for safety, especially once it gets dark. In events 50 miles and shorter, pacers usually aren’t allowed. Sure, the elite runners could get some actual pacing at the end but that’s a very small portion of pacing in ultras.
I ran into this last week (with LastPass, not Chrome - this seems to be a common practice):

I have a form where users enter information about their suppliers (I make restaurant management software). This includes a field for the contact email address, which LastPass was autofilling the email address the user used to log in. This happened silently, quickly enough that users wouldn't notice it on page transition, and would overwrite the initial value. Even with autocomplete=off.

This was a DATA LOSS bug - users would load the page, make a few changes, save, and not notice that they'd lost the email address they'd stored for the supplier. Fortunately LP has a method to force disabling of autofill (data-lpignore=on), but this could have all been avoided if they'd followed the spec I was relying on. I still don't know if some other password manager, maybe built in to Firefox or something, will make the same mistake, haven't had time to check yet.

But it sounds like sometimes the founder is fucked too.

They buy your product out from under you. They are never, ever going to be as emotionally invested in it as you were. To you it was a pet, possibly even a child. To them it’s just an asset.

How often has the product really gotten better after a purchase? Investment, sure. Bank loan, all the time. But how often to mergers result in good news for the customers? Maybe, possibly, if the products complement each other. But even Bitbucket was better off before, from a customer standpoint.
Bad that chrome developers don't practice web development enough to know the use cases where ignoring autocomplete=off breaks the application.

I doubt that any genetic syntax will significantly impact go readability. The only syntax overhead will be in type definitions, not in type usage, and the later is present a lot more than the former. Couple that with the current need to add extra type assertion on type usage, and you may be looking at overall readability improvement

I don't really agree with that argument from a humanitarian perspective. That would simply further increase the vast economic inequality between the west and the rest. Even with lower wages, people in China are better off with more jobs than fewer. People in the Czech Republic for instance have more safety nets, more alternatives and opportunities.

How much do you spend on the remote server on a monthly basis? Also, what's the hardware you use for the home server?
If you don't have it locally, you don't have it at all. Repeatedly streaming video & audio over the Internet is not only wasteful of bandwidth but also prone to connection quality issues and of course arbitrary takedowns by the content provider. If you purchase media you should have the right to remove DRM and have at least one local copy and one backup copy for your personal use.
Not him, but I'm gonna use this as a chance to plug unison[1]. I've been using it for more than a year now to keep files synced across more than 3 computers and it works flawlessly. It gets a tad slow to start propogating changes if you have too many files and a weak server (around 150k files, server has an Atom N2800), but it's not more than 15 seconds.

One nifty thing is that you don't need to run unison on the server ever, just have it installed. I have systemd units that I enable on my client machines and that does all of the syncing; unison connects to the server with ssh and does all the work there over that.

While I think everyone agrees that PG&E has been somewhat negligent in maintaining its network - as someone who works with utilities, I agree with you - I think its absurd to try to bill all the costs of every fire to the utility that may have sparked it - it's exceedingly irrational to do so.

PG&E has no control over the weather, winds, firefighting budgets, or forest policy, yet it alone is now to be held in total responsibility for all fires that originate with its equipment? thats absurd.

Does Chromium not have anyone doing QA or acceptance criteria? A rogue dev lead could make whatever feature they want, but there should be a robust process of testing by many people before the feature makes it in to a production build.
It's odd that the linked bug report references and complains about W3C specs when browser/HTML specs have been coming from WHATWG for well over ten years now. W3C has ceased publishing HTML with W3C HTML 5.2 in 2017, and has announced an intent to merely publish WHATWG snapshots going forward; so far, I'm not aware of any actual work under this model by W3C.

But OTOH that Chromium interprets form field names heuristically to enable auto-autocomplete is worrying, and reflects poorly on the whole "standardization" process by WHATWG.

Serious question: Does Tesla actually have that capacity, though? My understanding (which may be wrong) is that Tesla batteries are being produced by Panasonic. The Toyota/Mazda/etc joint venture has revealed that they are going with Panasonic as well. Meanwhile the Panasonic/Tesla battery factory in South Korea has been shelved. I'm actually more than a bit curious if this will cause problems for Tesla in the near future.

BTW, in case it's not obvious, I'm not that well versed in this, so nobody should read too much into my comments. I'm really just soliciting opinions from people who know more than me.
Right. The problem is, when you're dealing with Apple, the NDAs and agreements are all theirs and you have no leverage. I agree with you. Don't.
Because other people here are throwing in their frustrations, I will at least add that on the flip side I have been frustrated by sites that attempt to disable autofill for illegitimate reasons, like attempting to disallow password managers. I think I understand where this is coming from.

On the other hand, I, too, have been bit by this at least once, in the past. I think it was easier to just disable it at that time, but IIRC, the solution we landed on was to not use form controls at all but switch said text controls over to use content-editable elements. In our case it made sense, since it was not a form at all. My memory could be a bit hazy here, though.

Java is tolerably mediocre now but vintage 1996 Java was awful (and slow). I enjoy Scala, but even I can see why it's more than most of the industry is ready for. If there's a sweet spot, Kotlin seems close to it.
People on HN should know better than to post "forbes contributor" articles. It's a glorified tumblr (hover on the little "i" next to the author) where anyone with a half baked, superficially-informed opinion gets to write BS under a Forbes banner.
To the author's point: Got a couple of Apple laptops in the past year and I agree this generation of keyboard is a miss. But in the meantime it's not like other laptop manufacturers are hitting it out of the park. Isn't it just that the laptop product is a mature form factor with only room for incremental improvements?

One of the philosophies behind Go is to keep the language extra simple.

Some people call it "crippled", while some other call it "simple and safe to use".
- Jarhead: showing the boredom and uselessness of war

- Hurt Locker: showing the lack of clear morality (good guy/bad guy) in war

- American Sniper: showing the lasting psychological damage that war can inflict on the individual soldier.

Even though some of these movies depict individual heroism in war, none of them would be allowed in China (without heavy editing) because they are at their heart, critical of the entire endevour.
I completely disagree, coming from a Java and C# background.

There are nice aspects to reading Go, but any function which does some kind of error-prone operation is so hard to grok, it gets tiring - the actual purpose is constantly interrupted by 'if err := nil' so much.

And gods help you if there is some actual non-trivial error handling going on, as you've generally learned to gloss over and can easily miss that one place that actually does something with an error other than log and return.

Also, while admittedly rare, trying to review code that needs to copy structs around, if they also involve pointers or slices, is just hell.

I’m guessing guarding the quarterly vs committing to a very expensive long term strategy. Only makes sense for individual execs and shareholders short term.

I remember Tesla being heckled for how difficult it is to build cars. Only Tesla didn’t build grandpa’s cars, they did what BMW should have done - create something new, something that will always be an expensive venture.

Also, the diesel cheating probably ties in a bit here? Unsure about BMW specifically, but in general that’s what it looks like to me.
Cheap and simple. No one knows about it and it will keep the diesel sales reasonable for quite a while.

All about the short term.
Right, thank you!

I always suspected this. I recall several times in crowded lecture halls feeling drowsy and uncomfortable. My theory was co2 but I didn't know enough about how it works.

From what I can tell, they’re a fine alternative to the current MacBook or MacBook Air, but they fail the ‘pro’ criteria just like the last few years of mbp, including small memory, glued/soldered/unserviceable parts, and an over-emphasis on thinness that hurts performance/cooling and battery life.

Earlier this year, I gave up on my 2011 mbp, because I didn’t want to upgrade until ~2014, and by then it was basically too late. Early this year, I picked up a chromebook with an i5 U-series chip and 8gb of ram while waiting to see if Apple could fix the (primarily keyboard) issues before I put Linux on an XPS13 or X1 Carbon. Today, it’s hard to see why I’d pay $1500+ for any of those options.
I found the technical description of how the evidence was pieced together quite fascinating.
> American Sniper ... How this disproves that "Hollwood is unable to record a movie depicting modern US millitary in any critical or non-heroic manner"?

It's very critical. While American Sniper does indeed glorify the heroism of individual soldiers, it simultaneously criticizes the entire endevour. Yes, the lead protagonist is depicted as a hero, but he is never confident in his own morality, and even develops a professional kinship with the people that he is ordered to kill. It also highlights the severe physiological damage that war can bring, the movie ending in tragedy.

While American Sniper may glorify the individual warrior, it's largely critical of war itself.
Or perhaps just the MacBook Pro, and then they could rename the model currently labeled that to just MacBook now that they've discontinued the model that previously filled the slot.
I am a Firefox diehard, but I have been using and following Edge since MS put out the first canary. It's definitely my second choice. Firefox has enough exclusive features (like containers) that keep me from moving to a Chromium browser. For me, everything is chosen based on merit, not some belief system that a Blink-only world would be a terrible thing. I'm not sure that matters at all, and don't buy into that narrative that we need it for choice. There are still major players all building off it, and could diverge again. The Microsoft executive that suggested Firefox join them as a Chromium variant was correct. If anything ever pulled me away from FF it will be Edge for sure, and mostly because it is Chromium based.

My intended audience with that original post was the legion of Chrome users, but I could see how the Firefox cult (which I've long been a part of, check my oldest HN posts) could see it as negative or the "wrong answer". I never found Chrome to be quite right in all the times I've kicked the tires over the years. But on Windows, Edge being the native browser will ensure it's optimized to get the absolute best battery life out of laptop, a huge perk, and is quite frankly on the merits just shaping up to be a great Chrome-alternative on all platforms. No reason to resist the right-answer just because Microsoft is the one that appears to be bringing it.

I guess this will lead to a horrible coding style where instead of having this in the form:

<input name="email">

We will see stuff like this:

<input name="16fkr9547kancot944128sddfksdf934998aafccugt75">

Where developers use some type of abstraction that generates a random id for each field and then assigns it to the original value server side or in javascript.

Just like they already randomise asset filenames to avoid caching.
Oof, that's awful. I just got a bill recently here in seattle and got a $10.67 base charge and an additional $0.0902 charge per KWH for a total price of $48.50 dollars for 415 KWHs used in a 68 day period.
Here's just some of the stuff from the Trump administration and Republicans in the last few years:

Adds billions in loan guarantees to build nuclear plants https://www.apnews.com/38189fb0550e401da6b339ad9870a007

Signs NEICA https://www.energy.gov/articles/president-trump-signs-bill-b...

Republican bill NELA https://www.energy.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2019/3/murkow...

Here's my real nuanced position. Republican's ability to make this happen is somewhat limited. They can fund research, they can work on environmental regulations that stifle nuclear power, they can subsidize the industry with loan guarantees, and they can work with other countries to promote nuclear power globally. They're doing all that. The remaining hurdles are largely social ones, and the liberals largely own the culture. We need Hollywood to make pro-nuclear media. We need movie stars to support it in their dumb speeches at awards ceremonies. This will help stave off some of the NIMBYism. We need the left to tell the Sierra Club and their ilk to stuff it and not sue every attempt to build a nuclear power plant into oblivion... those groups aren't going to listen to Republicans.

It's totally true that the environment is not as high of a priority for Republicans as it is for Democrats. The GOP supports nuclear, but they're not going make it their top priority. As long as the Democrats continue to block it, as long as liberal groups make it tacitly impossible to even break ground on a nuclear plant, the GOP will just keep on happily burning coal. It's fine to think whatever you want about Republicans. I probably won't even disagree with you on most of your opinions. But this is a super easy major win for the environment that is being left on the table because the Democrats aren't willing to play ball.

for me, i personally find that the construction of the apartment matters a lot more than how noisy my neighbors are; I moved from a duplex in a very quiet neighborhood in sunnyvale to an apartment right under the SJC flight path, but the old place was last updated in the '60s and had single-pane windows, while the new place was built in the '80s and upgraded pretty significantly in the aughts. It is rare that I hear noises loud enough to notice over a running fan or air purifier when the windows are all buttoned up.

Double/triple pane windows make a huge difference (as does offset studs drywall standoffs)
I’ve wondered about that myself. Ma’s background, the things he says in public, his weird movie, and so on, don’t match the concept of a ruthless businessman. He could well be the friendly face of a cabal of PLA generals or something.
Point is that when you want to do a change in the "API" (or call it "protocol"), you need to touch the different repositories and coordinate to use the right versions together.

About the copy/paste of protobuf files, it works but makes it more difficult to keep them in sync.

And I did not say you need a single repo. I'm saying the stated disadvantages of multi repo are real.
