Replying late, so you probably won't see this. Replying anyway, so I look less stupid in the future.

The survey SureshG put forward (in a post parallel to yours) shows Kotlin twice the size of Scala (which surprised me), and Java something like 15 times the size of Kotlin. So to say that Kotlin is popular, but Scala isn't, seems to me to be drawing the line in a fairly arbitrary place. It seems more reasonable to say that neither is popular, or that both are.

"But Android" you say. Well, that will make Kotlin pretty popular, but it hasn't yet. In the future, you'll be right. That's why I added this. In the future, my post is going to look pretty silly without this context.
I recently read that sending audio over tcp was untenable and that Udp was the only way to go (at least for streaming)

Javascript doesn't specify performance characteristics of objects and arrays, so even with implementations, one object could be a hashtable, another a balanced tree.
From a manager's perspective, what I think is a great 1:1 is two things:

1. Delegate up. If you have blockers that we haven't talked about already out of 1:1 cycle, bring that first so that we can figure out how to knock it down.

2. The MOST valuable thing is for you to educate me. When I was a manager, it was impossible to stay current on every technical topic I needed to know. The IC working with the tech every day learns that all naturally -- boil it down to the most important and tell me that. That is the information that I crave, and will also use to educate the next level up. (Oh, BTW, if your organization seems to be allergic to this kind of upward-flowing education flow, that is a Bad Sign(TM).)
On that front, I totally agree. Some platforms are far easier to manage an acceptable work-life balance than others. Unfortunately, a month off due to illness would still result in a massive loss of income which could take a long time to rebuild. The financial situations many creators put themselves in scare me, to be honest.
The reason nobody really notices the touchbar issue is because almost nobody uses the Touch Bar!
There’s really no indication that civilization is in any way correlated with personal maturity.
I don’t think of board shorts as surf clothes, they are fast drying swim trunks you can wear around town. Great for all water sports, I usually wear mine under my wetsuit.

Billabong also makes a line of khaki shorts (walk shorts I think they’re called) with the same material that are amazing for hot and humid tropical weather. Dry super quickly if they get wet, very light, and slightly stretchy.
Based on the total flux, and photometry, usually they will assume a model for the star formation history. Sometimes a single burst, a constant star formation rate, an exponentially declining star formation rate, or maybe a combination of multiple bursts. The strength of the Balmer Break and the UV slope can be good indicators but even in this case, there are large uncertainties. I haven't read the paper but this is how it's often done in general. Of course, the type of stellar populations you use, impacts from dust, and the fact that star formation histories are rather complicated can impact accuracy.
A number of teams I work with have fairly strict "Cameras on unless there's some reason you can't (e.g. you're driving)" rules. In general, I think it's a good idea. I know not everyone likes video but it's one of those things you should really do IMO if everyone isn't co-located.

Doesn't matter. The fact that Tesla can alter the vehicle according to their whims makes the car undesirable to me.
Issue seems to be silent incorrect behavior, what happens if you attempt to run python code containing f-strings using an older python version. Does it raise an exception? That's good! What happens now if you write code for 3.7 which takes advantage of the new ordering and someone grabs it from your repo and runs it using 3.2, it would happily give incorrect results and noone is the wiser.

I disagree. They sold something, and the resell does not change anything in their side of the calculation. It's not like due to that sale, their backend suddenly has to do more work than if the car had stayed with the original buyer.

So the only "argument" tesla can really bring forward why they want this customer to pay for those features a second time is "because we can make them."

Not a hard question in my book.

"If the software has been illegally activated they are within their rights to disable the upgrade."

But the article says that the features were enabled when Tesla sold the car to the dealer at the auction. If Tesla sells the car with the feature, however it has been activated, then it behooves them to not remove it. Otherwise they are making their listing of the car fraudulent.
Are you saying she was heartbroken with a 1570 out of the old 1600 or the slightly-less-old, but still not current 2400? I can't believe that 1570/1600 is going to disqualify you from anywhere.

It is very well designed. Probably the most well designed editor/IDE ever created. (This is coming from a long-time Emacs enthusiast who still uses it most of the time.) Everything is modular and pluggable, like the extension system, tasks, the formatter, the debugger, language server. It offers a consistent API for any language or build system to tool against, so one improvement in the core editor can improve the experience of every language/build system.

It is heavy because it pulls in Chromium, but this is also one of its strengths. User extensions run on the same V8 that the entire editor does, so when you make an extension, it runs as fast as it would if it were part of the core editor. (This is a huge downside of Elisp's and Vim's interpreters.)
One thing he didn't differentiate on was the microphone and its appearance in video casting.

While there are many good choices, the Shure SM7B is the quintessential desk or studio microphone for recording vocals. However, it is a bulky monster and will take up a _lot_ of real estate in a video frame. If you're audio-only, that's not an issue, your vocals will sound awesome.

For video, I really think an off-camera mic on a boom stand in sound treated room is the best option for seated, stationary casting. Many hypercardioid vocal microphones most people have actually work fairly well in this setup. Treating panels doesn't even need to be expensive; this youtuber made really nice looking ones from towels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVEXp87TTrs

I don't like the sound or intrusive look of a lapel mic or the noise it picks up, for moving sequences, it's probably the best option unless you can hire a grip.

No, the root cause is the DMCA. Copyright is good in most cases and while there is room for improvement, and room for discussion for how it might need to evolve in a different information industry, it is copyright that helps protect even FOSS copyleft for example.

When DMCA was passed I remember the arguments being about this very sort of thing, and most of the hacktivist-types I knew at the time railed against it... but they obviously lost and weren't listened to. I think those who opposed DMCA are being vindicated...

If they have to be held accountable for the things their users do, they will simply wall it off even more, ban anything that seems slightly outside of the Overton window/status quo, and there will be absolutely no recourse for small content creators who are unfairly or wrongly banned.

Absolutely, and as others have already pointed out, it's on the dealer to put this right. Either refund the customer, pay for the upgrade, or take the car back.

> One parent to impart work ethic, one parent to impart language.

This at least passes the sniff test. I know plenty of 1.5 or 2nd Gen Indian Americans who seamlessly assimilate because they and/or their parents speak English, in an accent coded as classy (ie British-sounding)[1]. This is even true to some degree in the workplace: I work with some brilliant first gen Chinese immigrants, but there's a practical ceiling on their ability to work at higher levels because of the increasing importance of communication as you rise,and the way their thick accents and lack of vocabulary interact with that. A hypothetical kid of theirs with the same level of talent would shoot up the ranks.

[1] Note that this doesnt cover all Indian accents, only most traditionally upper-class ones.

Are you going to pretend either AirPods or Apple Watch are meaningfully competitive against other offerings on the market?

There are headphones with better spec than airpods at half the price available right now. They're not locked to any ecosystem. Apple has no idea how to continue competing in the envelope of modern hardware because competitors either beat them or match them on every move but without the premium.

Save my comment. Check back in a year. It'll be a good lesson.
Explanation for your downvotes (text is already medium grey):

> The only things actually preventing you from repairing your device are really scarcity of parts and warranty issues.

This is written to mislead people who do not know the relevant background information.

Apple puts a three-way stranglehold on the parts market. The scarcity exists precisely because of their anti-capitalist, anticompetitive actions.
Country-western and cowboy culture also come to mind.

Yes, both GlobalTimes and WHO just pulled those links, instead of posting a correction, after the authorities decided to plug him to an ECMO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracorporeal_membrane_oxygen...) machine to defuse the massive uproar in China about his death, then had to declare him dead again.

Others like The Guardian updated their articles, keeping the URL, as the situation changed. After the announcement that he was being kept alive, they added a paragraph at the top of the article explaining that, and later when he was finally confirmed dead updated that note to simply say “Early reports of death of Li Wenliang were retracted, only for doctor to succumb to disease later in day”: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/feb/06/whistleblower-...

Elixir, erlang, julia make using the smp of your system easy and natural. Go (you have to set up a bunch of things like channels and maybe worry about cleaning them up) and Java if you don't mind a bit of struggle.

If you want low level you can use c, c++ which are both dangerous, rust, zig (I just did some multithreaded stuff in zig and it's fantastically easy).

I'm glad to see other languages finally catching up to PHP. I'm joking (kind of) but after a lot of years of doing this, I've begun de-prioritizing pure abstractions and favoring the way that humans tend to do things on their own.

Technically this is along the lines of the worse-is-better philosophy. The single biggest cost in software development is friction. Performance, size, etc are all less important, because they become less important with each passing year as computers grow more powerful. And along those lines, I think that silly concepts like assigning letter names to drives in Windows, or having a paltry few registers in x86, made those architectures more accessible to the masses than the more generalized Unix and Mac platforms. Not that I completely agree with that, just, it's all I can come up with (other than cost and familiarity) for why people are so attached to worse-is-better paradigms.

Preserving insertion order has some small cost associated with it, but that's going to be dwarfed by the cost of bugs introduced when junior devs are surprised by unordered dictionaries. And the pedantic people can just use an unordered dictionary manually since they are already converting pure abstractions to whatever imperfect implementations are provided by languages anyway.
I have a SAAS that uses video chat for medical professionals and the #1 creator of support tickets for video problems are those with Lenovo. In fact, when someone has an audio of video problem, “Is this a Lenovo” is among the first questions we ask. The people who have the fewest technical issues? Mac users.

A single anecdote, of course, but advice to switch to Linux is naïve. Most people aren’t software developers. Many people use their computers for things like graphic design or media editing. How do you run Final Cut or Logic on Lenovo with Linux? How about Photoshop? MacOS and Apple hardware is superior for a wide variety of use cases. Maybe not yours, but for many people the pluses of Apple far outweigh the minuses.
Buy a $400 device and hold onto it for a few years. The android device needs to be replaced every 2 years and subjects you to misery for the last half of its life.

The old iPhone is going to work as well as, if not better than, a new android device - Apple tends to be about 5 years ahead of Qualcomm in performance, and they actually service their devices. My mom is using my iPhone 6S from 2015 that feels about as snappy as my 2018 XR. And that feels snappier than a pixel 4.

Very few people are software developers so the Mac req to develop is a non-issue.
I agree. There's a big difference between a long, flowing formal gown and cocktail casual women's clothing. If the Gitlab women showed up in the former they'd look and feel out of place, just like if a man showed up in a tux he might feel out of place.

Should they have communicated less information and just said 'Cocktail casual', leaving the receivers to interpret what that means? Is the existence of 'cocktail casual' fashion itself offensive?

From reading the article, it doesn't sound like Tesla actually "sold" the features to the original owner (which went to auction, and then was sold).

Instead, it sounds like Tesla goofed and enabled some features that should never have been enabled, and then clawed them back after the car changed hands several times (original owner -> auction, auction -> dealer, dealer -> customer).

The problem is that with so many parties involved, nobody is going to jump up and make it right for the final customer. It sucks for the customer.

The solution? Tesla needs a feature where resellers can initiate an audit of the car and Tesla can provide a certificate of the features that it commits to supporting. That would greatly reduce these kinds of problems going forward.

> if I want to stay here and get a promotion or raise, it'll be my manager approving that

Is this truly solely up to your immediate manager? In a lot of (most? almost all?) cases, it takes people above your manager approving it too. And if those higher-ups think that your manager did the things that are being used to justify your promotion/raise, you might not like the outcome.

If you look at the deadlifting example a little differently: you can get to the 95th percentile of 'people who go to the gym and actually deadlift' in terms of form and being able to lift relative to your height/weight/size/sex/muscle mass/etc.

All of the examples in this post perfectly apply to this situation: people don't record themselves and check form, don't upload those videos to the internet and get feedback, and don't get help from a personal trainer (one who actually knows something about form). This is why you see people in the gym all the time making basic mistakes: rounded back, non-vertical bar path, bending over too much/not enough.

They have more injuries, don't make progress, or don't get the results they want. Yes, you're not going to get to the top 5% in terms of weight lifted without a lot of dedication and time. But that's more of achievement over time/a career than your ability to execute the skill.
