I've worked in a lot of industries from heavily-regulated healthcare, financial, core developer tooling, and a lot of YC startups. It always pays off in the end to consider code primarily for engineers, and every time I see people take those kinds of shortcuts in non-bet-the-company situations, they regret it. Especially in situations where you're handling large flows of cash or data, a percentage point can sink your entire business. Certainly a HIPAA violation can add zeros quickly.

I've actually been doing a lot of turnaround consulting with companies that took a short term mindset, got stuck, and had to step back and revamp their technical processes like you say. It's always more expensive to redo it after the fact, but I'm happy to take their money and fix their mistakes.

And that's not to say that it's not a tradeoff, but it's about being conscious of the tradeoffs involved and making reasonable choices.

> If you're willing to let a value slide, its not a value.

I suspect this is so strict that if we poked at it it wouldn't allow for the existence of values. Simply, it's probably nearly impossible to make a useful list of even two values that can't possibly come into conflict—if you cannot compromise either, period, what then? So now we can only have one value. But I doubt even a list of one would fare much better under scrutiny and a few reasonable thought experiments & socratic questioning.

I don't think you can just outright rule that as undesirable. Personally I strongly desire a reversal of the current rates of economic and population growth and I know many other people who do as well. Most of the opposition I see to this idea is from people who seem to value "progress" for its own sake as opposed to progress that actually has long term benefits.

I've always enjoyed the word shenanigans yet I've never known where or how it originated. Rabbit hole.

Merriam-Webster tells us: The history of shenanigan is as tricky and mischievous as its meaning. Etymologists have some theories about its origins, but no one has been able to prove them. All we can say for certain is that the earliest known use of the word in print appeared in the April 25, 1855, issue of San Francisco's Town Talk. Although the "underhanded trick" sense of the word is oldest, the most common senses in use now are "tricky or questionable practices" (as in "political shenanigans") and "high-spirited behavior" (as in "youthful shenanigans").[1]

First use in 1855. Cool. I wondered what that first context was. So I used the site Chronicling America to find the April 25th, 1855 issue of Town Talk. But along the way I found earlier uses in the August 18th, 1854 issue of the Nevada Journal[2] and February 3rd, 1855 issue of the Sierra Citizen.[3]

I still don't have the definitive etymological answer but what the web allows a layperson to usefully research in 2019 is astounding!

They let the border pigs keep all of the illegally and coercively stolen private information from the thousands or millions of phones they've already imaged (under the basis of "it was believed to be legal at the time"), so not really.

Third-party doctrine lets them silently access your emails and IMs and texts at rest, and Section 702 as well as creative definitions of "access" let them sniff them all in transit. Privacy from the fed snoops is 100% an illusion; the entire population is under continuous realtime monitoring.

This border search thing is an important but ultimately minor victory; total surveillance is the name of the game in the United States now, and likely will remain so until the country no longer exists.

Strong encryption is the only defense we have against mass surveillance, but sadly most people don't care enough about their own privacy (much less that of others - the classic "What do you have to hide?") to demand it in communications products and services, so the majority of personal networked communications happens in ways that are extremely simple for the corrupt federal government to collect, analyze, and permanently store.

That's a business case problem. Not enough people are asking for it. It's expensive because it lowers their margin by a notable (maybe not huge) amount. No one said it couldn't be done, just that it's effort for too little payoff.
Oh sure. It used to be Perl. But it's "married out" now and taken a new name, and is off doing new things.

> renewables deployment will continue to be slower than new energy demand.

Does renewable deployment cover new energy demand as well as the fossil fuels we are supposed not to use anymore?

> renewables deployments are offsetting dirtier production methods

Renewables take their toll on the environment too. Batteries and solar panels need fossil fuels for their production, and the mining of rare metals is an extremely polluting industry (and often delocalized in countries with little regulations).

> If you look at the charts

The charts I looked at suggested that there will be both an energy and an environmental crisis.

It's very hard to argue over this topic as all we can do is cite experts. Maybe I'm attracted to the most pessimistic authors? where to look to have the scientific consensus on this matter?

But necessity is the mother of invention, so we will probably invent a viable nuclear fission-based energy solution at the 11th hour, probably by someone who also helped cause the death of countless people through their earlier work[0].

If there isn't enough daylight during part of the year to allow for both morning and evening commutes to be in the light, it probably makes more sense to give the light to the morning commute.

The morning commute is not only adults going to work. It's also kids heading to school, many on foot or bike.

The evening commute, on the other hand, is mostly adults coming home from work. School days are significantly shorter than adult work days, so the school kids are home by around 2-4 PM, before the evening commute starts.

Thus, if you only have enough daylight for one of them, you'll benefit more people by using that light for the morning commute.

US companies facing a tech talent deficit in 2020
I feel like reading HN should come with a warning on the tin that "If you're reading a long technical comment, taking away just part of it is dangerous" - were I speaking to someone in the business side of a corp that asked "Hey do we need these FK things, some developers have been saying they're slow" I'd say 'Yes, we absolutely do need FKs' then go on to talk to the developers, double check I wasn't at one of the about dozen of companies with data at a scale that FKs as implemented in RDBMSes (especially postgres, mysql tends to drop off in performance much easier without heavy tweaking) is insufficient, and then tell them that FKs do work and they probably really just need to read up a lot on indexes and stop throwing around table locks like it's christmas.
Your argument is poorly formed this was an extremely obvious case of reading the plain language of the law as already quoted. Which court it arrived in isn't proof positive of the complexity of the law. Its proof of how irrational and diseased our system of government is.

That would be a flat out lie if it wasn't actually a hardware switch which is hard to believe for a company whose entire identity and reputation is tied to these exact features.

I enjoyed the article. If I'm going to sleep easy at night I'm also going to do a lot more study than just read a blog post here and there.

I agree about the "where's the long-start guide?" sentiment though. I think that all the time. You see people say here is how to do event sourcing! Which is nice for their toy sized domain and toy architecture they have concocted. It's usually totally unworkable or woefully incomplete in a production setting.

That being said, finding a multitude of reference architectures, plus a handful of "war stories", plus a in-depth long-form educational resource about the topic is usually enough to get you to something workable and real-world.

You need to store downscaled versions anyway for low-bandwidth clients. However, with UHD you also have to store the UHD version, in addition to all the small ones. You also need more storage not just in your own DCs but also in those cache boxes you have at every major ISP; then there's the peering costs for transmitting those UHD videos, etc.

Long story short, Disney has a policy about such things. You'll find yourself logged out of most Disney services on the same cadence.

I would talk also about different ecosystems. Some are more exigent in therms of energy than other.

If you run short of energy in january in many boreal areas (like Moscow or Bismark), and suddenly can't heat your home, you could face a serious danger of death. Gaz and electricity are a must. Same for Mojave or Death Valley if you can't use electricity to keep the temperature in acceptable limits.

There is a limit on how much the developped countries could lower their "lifestyle" (needs of energy) to get closer to the energy requirements of developping countries, just because winter here can be really harsh.

Hot areas (in developping and developped countries) will face the same problem but many developping countries in tropical areas would not have this problem (even if they could have other serious problems to solve, like the monsoon period)

The energy requirements can be very different in the different periods of the year also. If we talk about average requirements of energy that would be wrong.
True, but it's been a goal to open source Quay from before Red Hat acquired CoreOS. The Quay team has always wanted to go community OSS, and it's been Red Hat's policy since acquisition to help them. There were just a whole bunch of prerequisites to iron out first.

My main concern is that it is in societies best interest to make the cost of reporting news low. Would be horrible to be in a situation like "all the good pictures of this event cost at least $2000, so if you won't pay for that, your audience can't see a visual of it"

Do news agencies have to pay royalties on pictures which are 'adversarial'? ex. Trudeau in blackface? Seems like there are a class of images which society benefits from having them be free and not subject to intellectual property restrictions.

Seems like capping royalties as a proportion of revenue earned by ads on that broadcast would be a sensible method of addressing this.
