> And it's critical to realize: mocking others for engaging in the Importance Game and the Leveling Game is just a way of engaging in the Importance Game.

I grew up in Los Angeles and now live in Portland, OR. People in LA play the status game rather brazenly and are roundly mocked for it. But the exact same game is played by everyone doing the mocking here in Portland. Except, instead of buying luxury automobiles and extremely expensive clothes, as people in LA do, people here signal status using markers of enlightenment and moral purity such as diet, meditation, political positions, etc.

I’m conflicted. In some ways, I appreciate the honesty of the LA approach. But I also appreciate the more subtle nature of the Portland approach.

Combined with state bankruptcy protections practice this means that most middle class people who don't have tons of money in a bank account, a home that is not their primary residence (or in their primary residence above whatever value their state protects) are decently protected but the upper middle class who often does have those things loses them in bankruptcy.
You either didn't see the comma or you're joking
Agreed. "Required" would be a more accurate, less emotionally charged word.

Signing the acknowledgment may be required if you want the job, but you're free to leave. You're not literally being forced to work at YouTube.

Yes, you might really need the job. That's still not force.
Amazon really is not a good example of a successful employee management. Their attrition is horrible, worst work life balance culture out of FAANGs, their reputation is horrible and working there is most disliked. They cast a wide net, but lose employees fast.
Sure but laying off random people isn't free to the corporation either. They have to hire new people which is costly, or end up with less people. And if the people actually responsible are still there, it will happen again. Unless they change their tune. In which case it's sad about the layoffs, but at least you've got a corporation to behave. Which is also nothing to sneeze at.
> might involving traveling internationally to visit $PROMINENT_BRAND_NAME to deliver consulting

Totally tangential and I apologize for that—but I read your profile and it made me curious what you're consulting on. Would you share [in some sense, even vauge] what kind of thing you consult on, or am I out of bounds? No names needed. I'm just very interested when software meets music, and in many facets of that meeting.
I would imagine it's more for things like illegal content (i,e. child sexual exploitation) as opposed to people being "mean". But I'm sure abusive behavior is a component.
I read your comment. I just think that a large number of Linux sales is seen as a large 'pie'. I can't imagine that if there are 20-30% Linux sales that many will be thinking "Well most of those are Proton, we don't have to do anything to keep support up there!". They will be thinking "20-30% of our sales are Linux and we're beholden to the tech debt of one of Valve's vanity projects and the effort of one volunteer who has just burned out and put his project into maintenance mode? We need to take control! We need official Linux support".

Comments like yours make me angry. Your whole attitude makes me angry. You're extremely offhand and dismissive of all possible Linux paths. I would accept that a 1% market share isn't an attractive proposition at the current time, that's a fair comment. I would accept that for the time being if Proton is filling a gap that developers currently aren't interested in or can't justify, but I absolutely refuse to accept that a larger player base who are willing to pay for a Linux first platform are going to be blithely brushed aside as not the developer's problem.
Show HN: IdentityServer4 Admin UI
Scala is still growing, and it has been doing so (albeit slowly) from the very beginning. Clojure was very trendy for a while and grew really quickly, but it peaked around 2015 and is mostly dead now. The idea that clojure will supercede scala in the future is completely lost to reality.
Not sure why the OP's message was flagged, as it was a totally valid criticism...

But yeah, I just started a Lumen project last night for a quick API behind OAuth2. I sometimes have to append "php" or "laravel" to my queries, but that's to be expected considering I don't use Google.

I'm a big fan of Elixir and think Lumen's Elixir -> WebAssembly will be awesome, but I do wish they used another magic potion related name for it.

You just explained like 90% of working class jobs.
I'm a techie so this may bias me, but I definitely prefer to see What and How before Why. The reason is, you as the solution provider are not in the position to tell me what problems you'll actually solve for me. You can make high-level promises, but whether your solution can realize them in context of my business and my tooling, depends on how they relate to your What and How. So either you tell me your What and How, or I have to tell you everything about my business and my problems - and since I'm on your landing page and we aren't really talking, I care and expect to see primarily your What and How.
Dunno why the downvoted. here at least, they mske more than a say a nurse.
I prefer having technology to vaporize rather than collect. But if we have the technology, just a scanning tractor beam to collect the debris. My guess is it'll all be too primitive for any reuse. So collecting it with a beam, then projecting it in a sun-seeking trajectory by reversing the beam.
Hi HN,

I've been working on an admin UI for IdentityServer4 for the past year and a half and today I've released the RC for the first version.

It has features like:

- managing the data for IdentityServer4 and Asp.Net Core Identity

- localization for multiple languages

- API with swagger support

- docker support

- support for multiple database providers with health checks

and more which is described in the readme.

I'll be around to hear your feedback and I hope you’ll be able to use it in your projects, in case you use IdentityServer4.
So you write it in elixer and web assembly converts it to Js that browsers understand. Cool. Just write it in JS and it will probably be faster.
Approved... by content moderators, perhaps?

Rearranging the deck chairs doesn't solve the fundamental dilemma.

> he’s seen truckers trying to avoid paying highway tolls, employees blocking their bosses from tracking their cars, high school kids using them to fly drones in a restricted area, and even, he believes, undercover police officers using them to avoid tails
Forty years ago, I had a wonderful high school biology teacher. She let the geeky chess club hang out in her room after school, and taught some interesting classes. I TA'd for her my senior year.

Last year I found her on facebook, just retiring. I shared some good memories I had of her, and updated her on some classmates of mine who had gone on to good things (one MSCS, one CPA, one PhD, one MD). I said I could speak for all of them that she had been the best thing that had happened to us in high school.

Her response was lovely, she remembered us all, and was very appreciative of my contact.

She died of breast cancer only about three months later after a very long fight. I was pleased to have made her feel good about herself right there at the end.
I've noticed that some people, when they don't know the answer to a question, just pretend the question was about something different and confidently answer that other question instead. I really strongly prefer people who know how to say "I don't know".

You can't know everything. What's important is that you know how to learn.

“Most of their top engineers would quit and go to work for another company that values their time.”

Maybe. But I doubt it.

First because people don’t quit that fast and second because I think something else might happen that is worth the risk of loosing a few “top” quitters.

I think top people will realize there is an opportunity here, and after seeing how effective it can be for a team to work toward a common goal, will request other such tasks be added to the list.

Eventually, people at that company can choose where to use their “20% service job” time.

But, then again, don’t worry, it’s all theoretical anyway, it’s obviously not up to me.
"Filesystem as a service" can mean too many different things to technical people, that it's basically meaningless.

Even if I was squarely in the target audience, if I saw that, I wouldn't necessarily know it applied to me.

Maybe I'm wrong about that.
I'm agreed that talking about kids is a good way to get conversations started with strangers (or pets, if not kids). In this case we're relatively new to the area but I know most people's backgrounds now. It's more a case of someone initiating conversation with a casual "what have you been up to?" to which I can respond, say, "Oh, just got back from a week at $MEGACORP", which might taken as a status play but at least gives something to start a conversation about, or a conversation killing "Oh, not much. Just the usual work stuff."
A study was done to pay people to build sand castles. In the experimental group, the people were told afterwards to knock down their sand castle (because the researchers said they wanted a different sand castle or something to that effect). In the control group, people were also told to build a new sand castle but in a different spot and so they would leave their other castle there. In the experimental group, people became very very demotivated and felt that their work was pointless and boring. It doesn't matter if you're ADHD or not, if your expectations are greater than reality and you have to kick your sandcastle over after building it, you're not going to do as well at your job.

As a code reviewer they should be giving you a compliment sandwich where the criticism or constructive feedback is placed in between two compliments. As a coder, I've found adding async and await to functions does a lot to make your code look sexier to code reviewers even if it doesn't have a perceptible performance impact on non-network calls.

If I were to comment on a new plan for you, I'd say let flow state be your friend and not your enemy. After all, you have a chair you probably have to sit in for ~8 hours a day while you stare at a computer screen full of code and that's hard for anyone to do for that long let alone someone with ADHD. Flow state will give you an advantage over others. Invariably, your flow state will break. Use that time to spend more time talking to the stakeholders in your group because sometimes stakeholders want what they want and nothing else. They'll appreciate the time you took to listen to them, they'll trust and believe in you more (instead of you being an unknown variable), they'll be more confident that they'll get what they want, and you'll benefit from the confirmation bias. If you deliver what they want, it's less likely that their sandcastle will get kicked over -- though still not unlikely.
To defeat "the Qualcomm", which records hours. This may let them drive longer than the DOT allows.
TL;DR:

Octarine, a startup that helps automate security of Kubernetes workloads, released an open-source scanning tool called Kube-scan, designed to help developers understand the level of security risk in their Kubernetes clusters.

They also open-sourced a second tool called The Kubernetes Common Configuration Scoring System, or KCCSS for short, which is the underlying configuration framework used in Kube-scan.

“There are 30 security settings in Kubernetes, and Kube-scan can help you see where you might be vulnerable on any one of them, measured on a scale of 0-10, with 10 being extremely vulnerable.”

I'm pretty sure I parsed it correctly. It's "Truckers (with GPS jammers) who drive my airports...". Parsing it as a list means it no longer makes sense.
Schneier's title made it seem like we should not be banning facial recognition, but in the blog itself he spent lengthy verbiage arguing there are 3 components we needs do more to fight against of a surveillance state. In other words, we need to do more to ban/regulate those rather than undo the facial recognition ban.

> "Full stack adaptive delivery" is a near-meaningless phrase. It can be construed to mean just about anything. It would fit just as well on a logistics company page, or on a sticker on the side of an ICBM.

I personally wonder if they used the Startup Generator in earnestness. [1]

But yeah, I'm a senior techie, and often involved in potential procurement discussions, and sweet Jesus, if you want us to give you money, give us some goddamned concrete facts. You synergise enterprise cloud offerings?Oh, you mean you have a templating language that tries to generify Terraform and CloudFormation and does both badly.

I sometimes feel like people in ticket clipping businesses like this (their CDN offering is, um, Akamai, but you can make pictures grayscale using their DSL because that's easier than using a photo editor?) are scared of saying what they actually do because then you'll realise that they don't do much for the money they're asking.

I'm really interested in the Core guidelines. They are only a few years old, however. It will be super interesting to see some case studies of large codebase adoption in the next few years. The lifetime profile is the one that I 'm most interested in seeing some real studies on. Some of the changes seem pretty simple (of course, I don't have to make them in any codebases) so it makes me wonder if they are expressive enough to solve a large chunk of the use after free problems.

Untenable only in a stable-state eco/technological culture. If, however, the technological culture of which satellites are a part is able to bootstrap itself through behaviors that are only viable in the short term, and burst through to levels of capability that are long-term viable and can rectify the short-term behaviors that came before, then everything can work out alright.

I know, I know, the above is close to hopelessly optimistic. It's like when I was younger: I remember thinking, "I'm not going to smoke cigarettes, but if I did it would probably be okay. By the time it would really matter, medicine will have surely found cures." I was an idiot, though I never did smoke.
I agree, unless there is a huge increase (2 orders of magnitude) in the ability to store energy per cubic meter per dollar then nuclear is the only path forward for bulk energy increases.

In my software dev experience, it is clear from how they think about blog posts or other articles online.

The people I consider to be great a this will read a variety of content on a topic, think about it, synthesize it with their own experience, go try new things, and decide for themselves what is correct for their own project.

The less skilled will say, "See, this blog post said to do it this way, so that is what we shall do."

Here is an example paper: https://www.krusch.com/real/14th.html
I'm aware of the google case, but "ownership" of ISAs seems to be a settled thing. That's partly what ARM's business is (i.e., to license the ISA to Apple for example). Do you have a clarifying source on copyright v/s patents regarding ISAs? RISC_V would also not be so significant if it were just a matter of running out patent clocks. MIPS is quite old too and would have expired soonish by the same logic (MIPS's own open-source announcement notwithstanding). Intel has also been passive-aggressively threatening MS and others legally so that they don't emulate x86 on ARM hardware. I remember when MS showcased some ARM laptop, Intel Legal sent out some press briefing claiming how they'll protect their IP. Qemu gets a pass though since it's non-commercial and there is nobody to sue. It would also be bad PR.

Edit: You may be right that it's only patents afterall and not copyright. This was Intel's briefing:

"However, there have been reports that some companies may try to emulate Intel’s proprietary x86 ISA without Intel’s authorization. Emulation is not a new technology, and Transmeta was notably the last company to claim to have produced a compatible x86 processor using emulation (“code morphing”) techniques. Intel enforced patents relating to SIMD instruction set enhancements against Transmeta’s x86 implementation even though it used emulation. In any event, Transmeta was not commercially successful, and it exited the microprocessor business 10 years ago."
Yes, GKE would be great. If we could specify the source of an ENV in a Deployment as a Managed Secret that would be incredible and save us so much hassle.
But aren't there ways to mitigate some of the issues of both? Might those ways incur costs to the company? Isn't the role of organized labor to advocate for the workers in areas where pure drive for profit would put workers lower priority?

Have you ever moderated anything? I don't see how a one sided content moderation can invoke much emotions, like even talking on HN to others is more of an "emotional torture" than such moderation. The problem with moderation is probably more about overloading people, forcing them to keep focus all day long.

I'm running on partial "utility solar". Cost varies wildly over the year, from 1x to >3x vs regular electric; average is 1.5x ... but that's with a reliable instant backup supply for every second solar supply is insufficient vs demand.

During summer, I run my office 100% solar. It's a fun exercise, but it's deeply reliant on batteries. Storage capacity is a cliff: run out of stored power, you're done. This "brick wall effect" is grossly under-appreciated by solar proponents.

There's a funny thing about supply-and-demand: so long as supply is sufficient, costs are reasonable; when supply actually hits zero, and demand isn't zero, economic badness follows. Solar hits zero daily; batteries have a hard limit of a few hours/days.
It's a new virus, so we don't really know what it'll do, do we? Maybe it has a 100% mortality rate after 180 days -- we won't know until more time has passed. This is like introducing new code into a system. You have no idea what it's going to do in the long run, and all you can do is patch it out or wait to see what problems it causes in the long run.

ADS-B and Mode A/C/S (MSSR) are both secondary radar. but the equipment differs, in particular the ground equipment looks different. It could be that the MSSR equipment gets phased out as ADS-B prevails. Primary radar will continue to be used though, in particular at airports (ones other than the many local uncontrolled variety).
I don't think it's a status play to namedrop a "megacorp," because for all they know you could be doing data entry. There's a spectrum of business consulting advancedness. It would be boasting to say "I delivered a report directly to the CEO," not to say "I did a one week contract for Walmart." The look on your face when you say it (snide, "I'm better than you," resigned to a life in airplane seats, pained from a life in airplane seats...) will convey most of the message.

eg. Postgres Simple. This is the page you get to at first when you search for it:

I see this sort of complaint kind of a lot unfortunately and mostly from engineers who think marketing should work like engineering. $1 in should equal $X out. Unfortunately it usually isn't that linear and the whole, when everything is working, tends to be more than the sum of the parts. You get the disproportionate outcomes when all the pieces fit together and not in a linear fashion. Marketing, like startup growth in general is on a hockey stick pattern.
