Nice work! Any article that features results from a test PCB is a winner in my book!

The Rohm high-frequency BJTs look promising: 2SC3838K is the fastest (fT wise), but there are several others (see page C28 of Rohm's 2019 catalog). I only checked the datasheet for the one, but it's got a very nice Figure 10, showing that it'll probably switch fastest around 20mA collector current, and should be about 3x faster there than the MMBTH10L at 4mA.
Meh. It’s frustrating to see this presented as generalized advice.

In my experience, startups, when you’re truly dedicated, don’t leave much time for other things in your life.

If you have a partner who’s willing to join you in that experience, or to support you (often at the expense of their own emotional needs), that’s cool, but every couple’s experience will be unique.

I haven't seen any cross-platform widget APIs that allow you to build a MacOS toolbar, for example―at least among the popular APIs. You mostly can only specify that the titlebar and the toolbar should be merged. Qt can draw something, but it will look like a Qt toolbar, not a Mac one.

So I don't see how WxWidgets is an outlier here.
I don't have any knowledge of this, but it sounds to me a lot like a typical everyday re-org or "defragmentation" that happen frequently.

Defragmentation example: they have a team with 12 people in California, 5 in New York, 2 in Seattle and 3 in Zurich. They decide to move all roles into one location instead of having the team split all over. If you don't want to move with the role, then you need to find something new.

Alternatively perhaps they just merged some teams and there were surplus folk. In my experience (unrelated to any of this) in rapidly growing orgs, teams/functions often get duplicated/semi-duplicated as different parts independently spin up teams to deal with some need. Ultimately these end up getting rationalised as time progresses.

If they were doing big layoffs of engineers etc, I think we'd have heard about it o we Twitter/blogs/comments/etc by now

SF is not a neighborhood of "fairly expensive homes". It is a neighborhood of some of the most expensive homes on the planet.

On the other hand, articles like this or principles like WET don't suddenly make it ok to just go ahead and duplicate code all over the place. It's not like code cannot be knowledge. Depending on the type of code SPOT and (what gets misunderstood as) DRY are totally about the same thing and mean the proper solution is to take those bits of similar code and make them into a function. Anyway, you likely know that already but I just felt information like this needs to be on this page as well to avoid possible beginners reading it might think all duplication is fine :] Because I've seen what happens when code containing the knowlegde gets duplicated and the result was never good and most of the time horrible on all fronts.
>Is that enough or is the studying ancient cultures part mandatory?

The evolutionary biology approach provides pretty deep insight into human behaviour. Making out is a dissociative state where each person uses their highly developed talking muscles to physically interact with each other. No other body part even makes physical sense. Your ear lobe isn't dexterous - that would be one way interaction.

>Please, take as much closer look as you want but do look at the whole picture,not just the booky part. Ask yourself why you enjoy it first,ask why others enjoy it and start there and stop when you have enough to adequately explain it.

How is your inward facing perspective as "the whole picture"? Evolutionary biology is the whole picture.

I went from long time news-junkie phase to no-news phase to just-enough-news phase.

Being a citizen in a democracy is an active process and the active part doesn't have to take too much time. For example, you can check news just two times a week.

For those who are saying there are no neutral news organizations, here is my take:
All people are biased. Organizations are made up of people. Hence, you won't get an organization without bias.

The goal is not to find organizations with no bias. The goal is to get your news from organizations with high standards of journalistic integrity and professionalism. Organizations that are aware of thier bias and try to seperate their news coverage from thier opinion section. There are many such news organizations (probably more than any time in history). Just pick two or three such outlets and you will stay informed.
Your comment is a bit shortsighted because OP did not missed the point. A good manager delivers on time and on budget while complying with the requirements, which the manager negotiates. A good manager provides good and effective reporting, and delivers. That's what a manager is supposed to do, and what a manager is hired for. None of the traits you pinned on engineering leads to competent management. Thus, you expressed your personal opinion while completely oblivious to the management role and it's requirements, and more importantly why a upper manager hires lower managers to get stuff done on time and within budget.
I was totally with you until the second half of the last paragraph.
Hugging is actually something that is very natural and has a lot of measurable physiological and downright physical benefits.

That said I happen to know a person who finds all hugging awkward, and he basically told the same story as you - no hugging in his family.
I think this is a human reaction to their environment.

1. Write code
2. Cleanup the mess
3. Write more code
4. Realise there a better way.
5. Stick with it because effort to change < benefit gained.

In Refactoring Kent Beck doesn’t just show extracting variables, functions and classes but also re-inlining them.

The problem is at scale, re-inlining is hard. If it were easier to do, it might be done more.

I find that waiting for N repetitions of some abstractable code is a heuristic to mediate between the cost and benefit of refactoring.

I don’t have an answer for improving it. Perhaps making easier to automatically manipulate the code in this manner?

I’ve thought for a while that it would be interesting to treat a code base as a database. Applying documented migrations to it which describe the code transformations occurring (and how to reverse them). Then changing these aspects of code would be trivial.

But then your meta program, the set of transformations which generate your current code base, would probably suffer the same problems as your codebase.
You know what's a tragic waste for me? Most of the US military budget, its spending on the War on Drugs, its tax cuts to billionaires and corporate welfare.

Let's cut those in half and talk again about SETI, which I would be happy to fund a hundred times over if it meant less killing, fewer unjust incarcerations for victimless crimes, more economic equality, and less concentration of money and power in the hands of the elites.
> For better and worse. Most older building materials do not pass current building codes¹,

That's primarily because they had to comply with the requirements of that time instead of requirements created in the future.

Nevertheless, rigorous compliance is not the point. The point is that the whole industry is focused on standardization, complying with specs, and use only tried and true technologies and techniques. That's not what the software development industry is about.

Generally yes, the general learning and problem solving mindset is going to help more than teaching "do this to do that" by rote.

But in any specific subject you need a certain level a basic knowledge taught that way before you can be expected to use the tools available (and potentially discover more) to problem solve.
This allows for the legal argument to seize the house of corrupt politicians and police officers. It also allows for the seizing of businesses from their owners and boards when their practices lead to economic crises.

It will however not going to be interpreted by lawyers and regulators as such. Because a politician, police officer, businessman, corporation all are more of a person in the eyes of law, compared to a simpleton woman charged with distribution.

The rule of the law does not exist.

The view layer is meant to be dependent either on application state you provide, or its own internal state if you don't provide any.

So for the NavigationLink example, there is an isActive parameter which takes a Binding<Bool>. If you set that value as true, the navigation will be made active. Likewise, you can read whether the navigation link is active by reading the bound parameter.

Instead of pushing navigations onto a history object stack, you return a view that represents the nested navigations based on state.

Bindings like 'isActive' are discretionary because the NavigationLink can provide the appropriate (if non-persisted) state if your application logic doesn't care.
Actually, it's not a cult-like attitude but is more of an individualist attitude. In fact, universities are the ones with the cult-like attitude.. so your statement makes no common sense at all. Geometric algebra is just as legitimate as any branch of mathematics.. Hestenes is not a crackpot, he is responsible for continuing the legacy of geometric algebra and passing it onto several other researchers.

Vacation is a great thing. Properly setup PTO policies are better. Eventually you reach a point where accrued time ceilings force you to take a vacation. That’s typically too late from a burnout perspective.

IMO unlimited vacation is simply a sugar coated way to not keep track of time off.

Out of curiosity have you kept track of how many days you’ve taken off?
A way to reduce base load power requirements is to raise the rates for it. A lot of power requirements can be time shifted, as a residence is inherently a large battery.

For example, the electric hot water heater. It can run when power is cheap, and not when it is expensive. The water will stay hot for a couple days (I know this from experience with power failures).

The same goes for heating/cooling the house. When power is cheap, heat/cool to the edge of the comfort zone. When power is expensive (i.e. base rate) let it drift to the other extreme. Houses have a great deal of thermal mass (again I know this from power outages) and this can be increased by using a pile of rocks as a thermal "battery".

In order to motivate people to use this method, raise the cost of the night rate.

Edit: of course, the more water in the hot water tank, and the more rocks in the hot/cold pile, the better this works. Fortunately, water and rocks are cheap.

Yeah. I have a standard 200mm edge-length-cube printer, and I find it just a little small for functional designs. Something around 1ft to 18" would be nice. I don't mind waiting a few days for a print if it all comes out in one solid piece.

I think it isn't so easy to say that what the US military does is a waste of your money. A lot of US foreign policy is about "free trade" that's beneficial to the US. If you were to cut off the US military then you'd likely have consequences for global trade. Perhaps you're right that it's a waste of your money, but I think that this is not at all a straightforward conclusion.

Eg imagine if Iran just decided to stop oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz with their military. How would you deal with this without a sizable military yourself?

Edit: or imagine that some country decides that they don't like goods related to the US going through Panama so they decide to occupy it. It's not US territory, but the loss of that will harm the US economy.
This is implicit in a coding interview, though. I, the interviewer, take a couple of sentences to describe a problem. What next? Way too often, rather than ask more questions - gather and define requirements - a candidate will launch straight into solving a problem different from the one I am describing.

Shameless plug for my new open source trivia PWA Just Trivia[0]

It has no ads, tracking, social integrations or monetization of any kind. It can never go out of business, it already is out of business! It's an MVP, I just stood it up two days ago.

The whole app bundle is around 700k before splitting. Each 10 question uses about 7kb of additional data. No CSS frameworks, minimal 3rd party deps. Uses the awesome illustrations from undraw.co

I'm working on an offline mode, with the db cached and the service worker acting as back end.

Sorry that got long. I'm going to do a show HN soon. But check it out if you want a simple trivia game on phone or tablet. It's a passion project, in case you can't tell.

Agree with points 1 and 2. But build the homes in less dense areas where they be seen by the community as a net positive. Or add to existing density where appropriate. Try to add density in the suburbs is inefficient at best, frankly I’m not sure what it solves.

So is this like an improved version of git with an easier command line syntax?

As in, can you use it for local gittering, or does it really require a connection to github all the time?

Because I don't feel good about this tool if it's basically another trick at lock-in. Git the versioning system is currently pretty open; You can use your own local repos, host on gitlab or github or your own server, and you really do roughly get the same experience from the command line.

Like, is this going to prompt me to host my local git repos on github? Not whether it can, of course it can, will it nag me?

People used to call these worries FUD but they also put ads in the start menu and turned telemetry up to 11, for an OS. I think current day it's a legitimate worry to consider. I haven't really had the misfortune of having to deal with such attitude towards users on the command line. But we'll see.

Or do they see "developers" as an audience to be treated differently than "end users".
Now, this is wholesome.
It's not only that. The community is comparatively small and tight-knit, one's technical abilities can be judged relatively comfortably from afar, and social currency matters a lot. Everyone with a stake in The Network already has to trust and be trusted by their peers. In that situation, informal agreements seem to work out well.
Please read README file
Yeah, it did strike me that I maybe should do so, while it was still editable. However, I chose not to because it's only a little over 2 years old, which isn't too far back.
No. Or maybe in America but nowhere else.

In countries where regulating things is understood as a purpose of government the availability of self-driving will end the "everybody needs to" justification for lax driving standards.

First thing you'll see is Continuing Education. Today for personal drivers testing is once and done. If you can hold in your instinct to aggressively cut off other drivers, pass on the inside and generally be a maniac for the length of the test you're set for life. There are small moves towards more continuing education (e.g. Speed Awareness requirements for people who keep getting tickets) but that'll speed up enormously once self-driving is viable.

Compare the regime for driving an articulated lorry (mandatory refresher courses, licenses automatically expire and you must be re-tested) to my grandfather being legal to drive long after he was in no physical or mental condition to be safe on the road.

Then I think you'll start to see tightening of basic requirements. That incautious fast turn you took becomes a Test Failure not a slap on the wrist. All fatalities result in lifetime disqualification. And when your lawyer says "My client needs a car..." the judge says "This isn't a license for a car, it's a license for driving. Buy a car that drives itself" much more often. Rich footballers who used to get away with this have already started to see judges say well, why don't you just hire a chauffeur? Self-driving tech would push this down to middle earners.
What does “high density power storage mechanisms at scale” look like?

The overnight storage requirements work out as adding a few cm thickness of LiIon batteries to every solar panel. Production of batteries is growing fast — eyeballing the images I’d even say exponentially, which is fast enough soon enough even if it isn’t a big enough number now.
Netflix: AVIF for Next-Generation Image Coding
If I get the intended usage correctly : - First you pick the composer and instruments (They can't be changed even though the UI seems to indicate they would).
-Then you click (Load More) with 4 selected. It will generate 4 possible continuations from the current tree.

-As a human, you listen to the 4 and pick the one you think is helping the music get in the right direction. If the music isn't getting anywhere, you backtrack and click Add More.

-Use Right click if you want to delete some nodes and all theirs descendants. If you use right click on the nodes of the good path you wanted to keep. Poof! They are gone! All your hard selection work is gone :(

This is an interesting idea to help explore the music space, but as a human, you are contributing to the composition at a rhythm of two bits every 2.5s (and it took you 10s to listen and pick). That is not much input. Maybe you can close the loop with reading bio-metric cues as you watch your listener listen so that you can discover its preferences.

Edit:

Sorry if it feels harsh but to me the whole point of Human-AI interaction is to make the human work less, and the whole point of human composition is to allow the human to express more. It's a miss here on both for me.

Here it doesn't feel like we are in these "20 questions" style scenario where we can make bits count, but rather trying to put the cat in the box by hitting the walls. In typical Human-AI interaction in reinforcement learning there are some promising research paths where you help the AI pick the right reward function. You make the human listen to two generated music extract and you try to predict the shape of the reward function, i.e. which one will the human like better. This way you can effectively make the bits count.
'Dumb' timers and thermostats have existed for a long time, the value of something smarter isn't necessarily about reducing power consumption.

I put smart switches on my exterior lights to run them on a schedule. The value proposition was 'People don't arrive to darkness because we rarely remember to turn them on.' I'm trading an increase in consumption for utility.

My 'dumb' pool pump timer died and I replaced it with a more expensive smart model. Now, in addition to running the schedule, the pump also runs when the temperature approaches or drops below freezing. It may be running more or less than under the 'I manually override the timer when it's unusually cold and I remember' scenario but the value proposition was 'Prevent a pipe burst because I forgot to turn it on.'
