My problems are mostly around external monitors too. I have the new 16", but I had issues on my 2014 MBP running mojave too.

I have two external monitors, an Apple 27" and a Samsung 32. Sometimes the mac won't wake up my Samsung external monitor and it needs re-plugging to get it recognised (re-arranging my windows in the process).

Also, if the laptop sleeps and puts the external displays to sleep, when the laptop is then woken up there's a high chance that the non-Apple external display won't wake up in time for the OS to think it's there and it will temporarily remove it, re-arranging my windows again. These issues only happen on my non-Apple monitor, and happened the same when I had a Dell monitor too.

I used to have Finder isses too, though not Mojave related. I solved it accidentally by switching from Chrome to Firefox. YMMV.
That has nothing to do with America or HN. Everywhere I've went I've seen the same thing: vast majority of people see no other value than financial, in general. It shapes how they think, who they hang out with and what their "values" are. Money comes first, and then everything is rationalized later.

For example, if a rich person does activity X and a poor person does the same, equivalent activity X, it can happen (and it does happen) that they say that the poor person is an idiot while the rich person is a genius. For the same exact thing.

Rich people know this. They know they are buying everything around them, including people. None of the rich people I know are naive in the sense that they think are that funny, interesting, intelligent or attractive, especially to females. The things that I've seen rich people get away with, I guarantee, 99% of HN will not believe. Probably me too, if I didn't witness it. Not talking about crimes here (although that happens, too). Just social things.

It's all a game and everyone involved knows exactly how everything is setup, but for some reason, we look the other way and if we say anything like this in real life, we would be thought of as "bitter" or jealous or something.

Money is indisputably important, but the best marker of intelligence that I have consistently seen is the right attitude and appreciation of money.

And I am saying this as someone well off, who will most probably never have any financial issues in life. So this is not "bitterness" or envy of the rich or something.

At least in Europe, people enjoy living in a society where everyone is more or less economically equal, and there are relatively few benefits of trying to become a multimillionaire. Unlike in the US, wealth usually brings more social isolation than public admiration.

When people think they want to be rich, what they actually want is to have more freedom and certainty in their lives. In such an environment, there is much less pressure to take risks. Especially, for highly intelligent people who feel safe about their jobs and happy about their work-life balance.

Does that happen when you use AWS or Azure? Enterprise is a completely different ball game, be it Microsoft, Google or Amazon.

The amount of value they will get by peeking will be insignificant as compared to the reputation loss they will suffer from enterprise customers.
Yes. Good point. This is my intuitive feeling as well. An extreme example of this is Paul Erdős (of Erdős number fame) who did not care about any material posessions.

I always think there is some magical perfect schema that I am missing. And if I just designed things perfectly in the beginning, I wouldn't need all this complex query logic. And reverse lookup tables, and fan outs, and other sundry hacks

But action always trumps thought. And its better to just slurp up as much data as possible

The simplest design for keys in a dict type data store such as Redis hashes, is to just auto_increment user ids. Resolve id=user. And then all data is just flat {var:id=value}. Key type is just a string delimited by ":". Gets you in the game fast. Mine structure and relationships later ;)

HN is (or at least claims to be) the epicenter of Silicon Valley tech culture - it's owned by a startup incubator and used to be called Startup News after all.

It's not surprising that a lot of people here buy into the mythology that having a high IQ ranks them among an elite class in a technical meritocracy, and that they're just one app and a bit of hustle away from a million dollar buyout.
Irony that a country led by Donald Trump is charging companies with racketeering. Shows what a joke we have become.
Yes, the article lacks clarity and detail. It almost makes you think that IQ is not important. When we know it very important. Necessary but not sufficient.

> Most other operating systems, such as OSX and Windows have consistent GUI toolkits.

Has been not true for more than a decade. Between win32 user/comctl32/shell32 widgets, office widgets, xaml and uwp, saying nothing of the mirriad of third-party widget libraries used by applications by Adobe, Autodesk and other third parties, which one is supposed to be consistent and canonical?

Somewhat consistent widgets in windows applications were last seen at the end of 90-ties. Since then, linux desktop blushes in envy, how inconsistent it could be.

You know that you can use SSH with Kerberos too, right?

> If the primary fails, then DNS has failed, period. The primary will be tried 100% of the time with a 30s timeout before the secondary is tried.

Nope, but it is configurable. Did you happen to have a misconfigured system? Default timeout is 5s; and your config option will be just capped to 30s max.

> Failures aren't cached. Successes aren't cached. Nothing at all is memorised. TTLs may as well not exist.

Systemd by itself won't do anything like that. You can use systemd-resolved, which is an optional part of systemd (afaik only Ubuntu uses it by default); but otherwise, systemd won't touch your resolver config. NetworkManager (default in RHEL7 and 8) will, though.
Well, when you don’t have a social safety net - no universal healthcare, poor maternity/paternity leave, unemployment benefits are meager, mostly “at-will” employment, high cost of college education, high drug prices, social security is not going to be enough to be significant unless you made a lot of money during your working career and have a paid off house, etc.

You basically have to be more focused on money. I am not suggesting any policy changes (at least not here), but you adjust to the environment as it is.

I was recently reading about intelligence and intelligence tests. Who defines what as things that make someone intelligent?

For example, we have a separate category for emotional intelligence because that's not traditionally been considered intelligence. What's measured and pushed for in intelligence isn't really the full range of intelligence.

Lost in there are things, like emotional intelligence, that enable people to more easily move toward their goals. Someone can be wicked smart with general knowledge, spacial relations, and other more common things measured with intelligence but lack in the people skills needed to make their ideas a reality.

Intelligence is complicated. What we measure isn't all their is to intelligence. What we prize in IQ isn't everything that's useful for intelligence.

Even drug abuse - or felonies - seriously differs depending on if you are rich or poor. A poor person needing rehab might only have NA to rely on because it is free and allows both parents to watch children: A rich person can likely pay for an inpatient facility and child care. Even before rehab, the poorer person's meth habit is going to take up a larger percentage of the family finances, adding additional stress. The effect of a meth habit really depends on how rich one is when it starts.

A similar thing happens for felonies. IIRC, simply being poor makes it more likely that you commit felonies and more likely that you get caught for others. The richer person can do their cocaine in relative privacy, even if they are outdoors in their own yard. The poor apartment dweller doesn't have such luxuries.

Divorce is also an issue: I've met multiple folks that stayed married to their partner simply because they couldn't afford the fees to get divorced, let alone think about a lawyer if they felt they needed one.

Both have stress, but they have vastly different tools available to help them out with the situation.

Really there have also long been been a mix of "new" tech introduced in a niche and "roll out" of old tech infastructure to more places often aided by the previous making it cheaper or possible. Aquaducts and irrigation canals existed for millenia and some have had indoor plumbing of sorts ahead of schedule for quite a while. Rural electrification and indoor plumbing initatives often meant the difference. It took time for it to be more widespread from wherever it was the most convenient. Rural areas had party lines

One unspoken difference from "just" computers directly between 1920 and now is checking in on farms or factories is wondering where everybody went and if they checked in on a nursing home would likely make them think there was an underpopulation crisis.

Could you give some examples please?
Wealth is just responsibility, and if outlier intelligence people are underrepresented among those who choose to accumulate responsibility, this should come as no surprise to anyone. Most extra-intelligent people choose the freedom to solve problems and to be stimulated intellectually, which is an orthogonal concern to taking responsibility, risk, credit, command, and dividends.

I divide intelligent from smart as the difference between a capacity for abstraction and the ability to get what one wants. Lots of smart people are of medium intelligence, and lots of highly intelligent people are not very smart at all. What I wish I could teach is that, smart is an outcome, intelligence is an attitude, and genius is an effect.

That's literally what happens to those whose riches are the result of inheritance, which is the source of a great many rich people, so yes.
You made a great example, and I think it's the most important thing to remember when designing schema. I've seen arguments for/against 1NF, 3NF, various db features, etc, but really, the schema should model the real world relationships.

If your InvoiceItem has no description, and only has a FK to Product to get the description you're going to have a bad time. Once you build a system around a wrong relationship like that, it's very hard to go back and fix the inevitable issue that updating a product changes old sales invoice records.
I don't agree completely with you regarding 1. You don't have to be the most social person in order to get a job at say FAANG and after that your resume talks for you.
For most cases, objects in the fastai framework inherit pytorch objects and are often rather thin. This means that you can usually roll your objects if the fastai ones aren't sufficient. This really help alleviate the feeling that you're "on rails" of the library.

That being said, a current project I'm working on didn't really fit the fastai pipeline and I needed to drop into pytorch. It's a total shame since there are so many little niceties that make things easier.

Yep. I got a friend who works remotely but had to fly to New York for meetings. Showed me some pictures from his trip, They have a beer available in the fridge, along with bottled water, energy drinks and stuff... I'm not much of a drinker but he told me he thinks it's for after hours lol. but not sure what the actual rule is... or why people would even be there after-hours? I don't get it... Seems like any other jobs, drinking on the time clock you'd get fired... If you worked at a bank or Walmart and was drinking on the job, I got a feeling that wouldn't go over very well... Then I'd be worried about screwing up due to drinking but maybe you don't drink enough to get drunk...

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but doesn't make sense to this whole thing lol. Soda, Water and energy drinks and snacks is cool idea though but the whole alcohol drinking part is just confusing to me. I wonder how much they spend on these perks extra, well some people might use it much more than others... I guess that's probably a good reason to buy in bulk though. but I know some of that stuff isn't even healthy and some people with unknown heart conditions died from drinking too much caffeine too... I feel like unlimited energy drinks some people would go overboard.

That would open them up to costly litigation, especially under GDPR. Not saying "companies never break the law", just that doing it this explicitly is a much higher risk profile to them. That, in turn, makes it less likely they'll do it.

Leopard was an utter crap release with tons of complaints. I remember the many issues just trying to get Finder to work without crashing, or syncing a phone.

Snow Leopard was "better" in that it wasn't so terribly broken, and they eventually got it working decently.

From then on, the only complaints were about how locked down each new version was, what was no longer supported, and how many new annoying dialogs they'd introduced... UNTIL Catalina.

Now we're back to the Leopard problem again. Plus more annoying dialogs.
IMO if you actually want to know for personal use, the question's way too broad. (But fine for a discussion many can benefit from of course.)

The more specific they are (to something you care about) the better.

Unless they're so general that there are high-quality talks about a range of things I suppose.
This is very impressive. The average lifespan of a company on the S&P 500 is 15 years.
> . Speaking to the Harvard Business Review, Voatz backer and political philanthropist Bradley Tusk stated: It’s not that the cybersecurity people are bad people per se. I think it’s that they are solving for one situation, and I am solving for another. They want zero technology risk in any way, shape, or form.

I think the goal should be that there's not a net increase in risk of election tampering by moving from vote technology A to vote technology B.

I am inclined to think that the peak might be filling out paper ballots to be read by machines (penciling in ovals/scantron).

If we want to improve turnout, we should try some existing ideas that are much less novel and risky: offer early voting, make elections a holiday or hold them on a weekend. Or make it compulsory.
You're saying that's the only way to be rich. That's incredibly shortsighted.

You're right that tasks are the center of the user's universe. But it's generally not tasks that infect a device with malware. It's malicious applications that do that.

This is the case on _every_ OS that lets users install applications.

So, how can we make sure users doing tasks aren't afflicted by applications that want to sneak in? You're saying to "structure a security model differently" leads me to think maybe users shouldn't have admin access on the machine? But then you get all the critiques people have of iOS.

I'm honestly asking, what's the alternative here?

> whether or not to use random data in unit tests.

Don't. That's not a unit test anymore; that's fuzzing. Which is a great thing to do! But it doesn't belong in unit tests.

Why? The problem isn't a computer problem, it's a psychology problem.

If your tests start intermittently failing, your developers - you - will just start hitting "re-run tests". You'll tell yourself you won't, of course, but then will come that day when you must fix something in production, so you just slap "run again" and promise you'll fix it later. And maybe you will. But over the course of time, people will just blame "flaky fuzzy tests" on failures, and stop following up, because hey - we've never seen this in production! We'll get around to fixing it, later. And then you start ignoring real test failures, or slapping "retry" half a dozen times before realizing your failures are real.

This will rot your engineering organization.

I am loving Catalina. The new Reminders app is a huge upgrade that allowed me to stop relying on shoddy third party apps. Using Apple Watch to authenticate is handy. Sidecar is useful as hell on business trips. iTunes is no longer a bloated unorganized mess of an application. Safari is dramatically better. Photos is better. Having screen time data on my Mac is great.

Catalyst has brought a handful of new macOS apps for me to use that were not available previously. Several that I use on a daily basis.

And I haven’t experienced any bugs or issues.

So I guess your mileage will vary. But if you hate macOS enough to write TWO blog posts about it why don’t you just switch to another platform???
