Developing a state of the art wafer scanner for EUV lithography would probably take decades, many billions of dollars (not tens but more likely closer to $100B), violate thousands of patents and the end result would 100% be inferior to what the entrenched players (which for EUV lithography is de facto only a single company, ASML) have on offer today, which means it would actually put you at a competitive disadvantage as a foundry, compared to competitors that just buy the state of the art machines. Add to that it already takes huge effort and investment to run a fab, semiconductor manufacturing isn’t a process where you just get some gear, then press a button and wait until the chips roll out. It takes billions and months to years to just switch to a new process node. That’s TSMC’s core business: using the tools to make chips, not make the tools themselves, and that’s already extremely hard. It’s not a coincidence there are basically only 3 big players left that can compete at the most advanced process nodes.

Development on ASML NXE EUV scanners started ~20 years ago and only since very recently are they being used for high volume production. There is literally zero chance anyone would be able to profitably build the same thing from scratch again, at least not unless they find some radically different way to make semiconductors.
The places I've worked have had revenue-per-employee in the $200-300k range. That's total employees, not just developers (so, sales, accounting, HR, as well). Doing some rough math, it's been more like $15-25mm per developer.

All comments seem to recommend a good old filter over an ionizer. Would an ionizer in series with a filter (e.g. in air ducts ) be more effective than a filter itself?

> a not very exciting job often offering few interesting challenges

I think the exact opposite is true. Maybe programming isn't as interesting as being a literal rockstar, but I think most programmers' second choice of job would be "real" engineering which is usually lower paid and in my opinion less interesting.
Every POSIX service needs to be daemonised, write logs, etc. The question is, do you have one bullet-proof implementation in the service-manager, or do you have N independent and less-tested implementations in the N managed services?

Adding code to one codebase isn't an "additional feature" if it means you can delete that code from half a dozen other codebases.
Notes on the Go Translation of Reposurgeon
Sorry, yes, the article is aimed at US programmers in cities with high salaries: SF, NYC, Boston, etc. I should have clarified that.

The way programmers outside of these cities are paid so much less is another thing that doesn't seem very stable.
PGP alone is no longer sufficient to talk about encryption in emails. The real step up is autocrypt (https://autocrypt.org/) that encrypts almost everything. Unfortunately the way email works it is still possible to know who is talking to who.
It’s hard to imagine a product as fragile as OneDrive though. People do lose files on it.

Why were they explicitly listing this channel types not including right-leaning? From what I heard there indeed is no problem with left radicalization but with right radicalization and mind fuckery through conspiracie channels and similar.

I guess I have to read that article

I'd like to keep this conversation going. Maybe email me or find me on keybase from my bio.

I understand that regulation is enormously inconvenient for owners. But making it easy to acquire firearms isnt a benefit of more people owning firearms, its a prerequisite. I want to understand why people should own firearms at the level of scenario 2 above.
That's not the same. Unless you're adding one role per channel, and then it's quite unwieldy. For example, we're not going to set up a role and have everyone else self-serve add that for a channel for an outing, a specific feature/bug, etc etc.
Ubiquitous interface – how to integrate things in Clojure

In Rosetta Code you can split the code and insert some text and formulas between them. Sometimes it makes the explanation easier. Also, the free form in useful to add different ways to solve the task and compare them.

The problem is that you must trust your cut&paste abilities to not break the code :).
Very true, the RCMP in my hometown were rarely doing raids/busts or anything of the sort. Unless you we're trying to muck around with hard drugs or driving around in a hotboxed car.

There were multiple parents/working class people with tables/setups in their garage. Come over for a cup of coffee, catch up about the kids, grab a few grams until next week! Nothing nefarious.

On the consumer end the logistics is really the benefit of legal weed. You don't have to know a guy, play a game of telephone, wait around. Instead you can visit a professionally run store filled with people that know about the products and gear that is stocked. Makes it much easier to add into the routine right beside picking up groceries. That being said you pay a premium for that, and there's still black-market services doing Amazon style home delivery.
Ask HN: Failed to meet all my 2019 Goals, how to make sure 2020 is better?
I only successfully finished around 35% of the goals I set. Multiple reasons - mainly due to not taking initiatives when I had free time to work on these (procrastinating) and secondly overestimating how much work some of these would take.

How have others dealt with setting goals, and how did they achieve all of them?

Microsoft is very open about how it works: get an EV code signing certificate from any vendor to remove the warning entirely, or have enough users click through the warning (and getting a cheap "regular" code signing certificate leads to a less severe warning if I remember correctly).

Google is completely opaque, there is no documented path to get rid of the warning.
I can attest to the usefulness of this.

I'm assuming this is free-as-in-beer software? Because the default distribution mechanism for free-as-in-speech software is Github, these days.

Can't you add it to the Windows/Mac/Ubuntu App Store, though? There seems to be lots of free apps on there...
It supports arbitrary data formats, including binary data. It sends corrupted data or data that fails to parse to an 'error' stream where you can complete further processing on it. I don't think Stroom is right for you if you're processing data like images and other large 2d data sets. It is primarily made for data that can be transformed to XML.

This is not true, Intel regularly upgrades existing fabs to new processes. For example they upgraded 4 fabs to 22nm back in 2010. This list shows how old some fabs are: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_manufacturing_...

> Because the default distribution mechanism for free-as-in-speech software is Github, these days.

I surmise that this mostly impacts non-free platforms, where compiling software from source used to be quite non-trivial so it was common to just download binaries. These days you can probably get LLVM to work everywhere, though.

Agreed, I would pay something for a feed of critiques like this, would save me time dodging poorly constructed literature, I like books, they are like the internet but usually a little more refined.
I had the same happen on my Nexus 7, after aggressively disabling apps, including things like the Google app.
The left-right paradigm is obviously limited in its scope for explaining the nuanced differences between parties and political movements and especially across international and cultural boundaries.
FWIW, if you distribute your app as an installable PWA, the google guidelines are clear for reducing install friction on Windows/Chrome/Mac/Android and Let's Encrypt is your cert generator. Perhaps platform vendors treat binaries malicious by default because it so often leads to privilege escalation. Build an app in the web context and you have a cross platform sandbox with a standardized permission model. Alas, this is not very helpful advice for folks who haven't grown up developing for the web.
The reason I state that it does is because at least Chrome (and its derivatives, which make up 70% of the browser market) and Firefox rely on Google Safe Browsing to flag downloads, and Google controls 92.42% of US search users.

Having one's website and/or downloads flagged as harmful, and potentially being deindexed for hosting malware, is not something any software developer can ignore.

If Bing and Edge flagged my downloads, I would honestly not care as they control 2% of the market. The Windows "this file was downloaded from the internet" warning is something that, regrettably, is so common that users already ignore it, and it happens even for many commercial software programs. Although I do consider that an unfortunate hurdle for free software developers as well, the harm is substantially smaller.

As such, I respectfully disagree.
Interesting. So say a couple likes to take nude photos . . . Samsung reserves the right to collect and use those photos if you store them on "your" tv. So you decide that you won't store them there to be "safe", but Samsung can take a screenshot of them anyway?

The lack of edibles for the initial launch is a big blocker for casual adoption IMO.

As per the visuals, cannabis use has not grown dramatically since legalization. Oils and raw bud are simply not as accessible as a bar of chocolate.

I imagine that won't cause a significant bump either, but at the least, it opens up the market to the casual user -- which simply has not happened yet in Canada.
I feel maybe the best comparison might be to Elasticsearch? It takes in mostly log data, parses it (ala Ingest Nodes) and then makes it searchable / shown as dashboards.
Almost any comercial / digital signage display can be dumb enough, and probably don’t have the user spyware, even the Samsung ones.
28 Samples of government malware awaiting further scrutiny
I find a lot of undesirable behaviour and condesention between groups is based on insecurity. And not just between engineers and other engineers.
And there is the problem that a lot of the 'good' coders generate code that cannot be read by mere mortals, i.e. the majority of devs.
My larger fear is how opaque the process is: will it just continue to flag my downloads as being harmful? Or will it eventually escalate to blocking my entire page/website as I've seen happen to others? Will it result in search penalties if I continue to release new software? How can I make these warnings go away permanently? None of this is explained anywhere that I can locate. All I have to go by are the scary warnings asking me to "secure my website from future attacks" and that their review found I "no longer" host harmful downloads now that I've removed my own, safe software from my website.
Most software development at high paying places like the FAANGs still does not require ML or data science. It's understanding the problem, figuring out what to treat as your constraints, figuring out the best changes to make to the current system to satisfy those constraints, getting other engineers on board with your proposal and handling feedback, making your changes, writing automated tests for your changes, writing appropriate monitoring, etc. These are the kind of skills that me and most of my coworkers have learned on the job, and we're happy to hire junior engineers who can code but don't know the rest yet. Which seems very different from medicine to me?
Growing a plant in the backyard is several orders of magnitude easier than buying the equipment and taking the time to brew beer.

Yes they are quite successful in getting timely injections of large amounts of money.
Indeed - you can make more driving a tube train, or being a pretty bog standard policeman than what many devs earn.
I never met a sysadmin that was anything like the bofh.

Look, it is a funny story, nothing more.

Just like there is dilbert and other stuff.

Do I want to become a bofh? NO

Do I like a complete Fantasy story in which a sysadmin runs amok?

Yes, yes I do.

I would never compare that to reality, just as I wouldn't expect that lord of the rings is a accurate history documentation and that star wars a prophecy.

To your other points:

I rarely met toxic people and when I did it was one of the following reasons:

* As soon as a system was down(Of course, no money for HA or preemptive maintenance) users called and screamed(Yes screamed)

at the it people till one of them had enough and screamed back.

* The Sysadmin was responsible for all the systems 24/7 but got paid 40 hours.

* The sysadmin had to repeateadly explain to a user how to change his or her password and how to login to computer.

* Sysadmin got the blame for not backing up a system becaus some enduser deployed in on their smuggled in nas

You will see that most people that become toxic, suprise suprise, are in a toxic environment.

Just to iterate over your last point:

The Job of a sysadmin is to build and deply systems, keep them running, document and plan new things.

It is NOT the job of a sysadmin to help people learn how to use software, which they should know about because they knew they had to use it, when they applied for the job. That IS helpdesk work.

E.g. "The software writes I can't connect to the server" is a valid question.

"I don't know how to make a paragraph bold in word" is not valid.

Because that would mean that you just hired a person who has no idea on how do to his job. How to you expect a sysadmin to know every programm inside out?

Heck I know how to deploy photoshop, butI have no clue how do to anything in it and I frankly don't care.

Quebec is always a special case of bureaucracy and government mismanagement.

Remember that all liquor stores in Quebec are government stores too. I suspect they'll start distributing them there - possibly dependent upon neighborhood approval.

I think you missed the dry humour in the comment. “Physical DRM-free uncompressed audio” is a barb at the post-CD generation of industry-mandated contraptions, which lowered sound quality and convenience, and the “obsolete” quip is a parody of sneering contemporary tech-types.
I wonder what the absolute number of living people who have actually read the bible is compared to the number of people who have read Joyce, Tolkien, Tolstoy, even George R R Martin!

There are many texts that are long and arduous, yet they are sometimes worth the effort to read! In many instances the rewards are seemingly unsubstantial but they all provide something that can shape subsequent thoughts in many ways. I suppose it's a matter of priority and interest. Ah well, vive la différence!

Have you never come across phishing scams that looked eerily authentic only to be clued in by the fake url? I can read the URL before going to the website, and unless QR codes have a step where you have to manually confirm going to the url provided by the code (most don't) then that's a security risk
Internet is way way too cheap. There's no reason why the working class should have access to it, their brains are not advanced enough to handle it...maybe run a government service for bureaucracy stuff + buying tickets, etc for free then have the full WWW accessible only for the high-middle class/rich/institutions.
And even intelligent people respond to that problem with, well we've always managed to have unbridled growth before, as if there are no absolute physical limits in the World.
That is truly obnoxious. The only thing that makes it tolerable is that you can mute the trailers when browsing using the website.

In WPA3 the nosy neighbours can't sniff anything. If there is no password or they know it they can do an active MITM to get between users and your Access Point because it now uses a PAKE, but active attacks can be detected and would be a bit more than "nosy neighbours". If you use anything fancier than a password (including technologies like EduRoam or GovRoam, Active Directory login, whatever) any adversary has to attack that instead.
