SAG's hourly rates are great on paper - well above market, in fact. The net result of this is that your typical SAG member who doesn't have the power to demand higher rates anyway based on their own reputation ends up with almost no work because so few productions can afford to hire them, which is why their actual income is so low. The way SAG maintains its power despite this is by requiring productions that want to hire more in-demand actors to only employ SAG actors, forcing everyone to sign up to SAG and commit to waiting tables rather than acting most of the time.

If you cast your mind back to the video game voice actor strike a few years ago, for example, you may recall that one of the justifications for that was that they needed more money because many of them were only getting something like one day's work a month on average. Mostly because no-one outside of the big triple-AAA games could afford to hire union voice actors. Back in the day, a lot of video game and anime voice acting was apparently done by union members under pseudonyms so the union didn't find out; that's probably harder to get away with these days.
Sure JOSE is bad but the author gives no real alternatives to JOSE. A session cookie has little in common with JOSE. The author ignores the need for SSO and distributed authentication. The idp is free to use whatever algo it wants even if it's not in the algo list from the linked RFCs. Whoever wants to authenticate can surely implement the given algo(Most likely it just needs to import it from a standard library.)
The recovery date isn’t fixed so there’s not a single “+14” that is as useful as picking the dead / known outcome.

I think this is because it’s hard to know date of infection, but it’s definite to know whether the case resulted in death or has been determined “recovered.”
> But a better reaction is to not care. I’ve never had much trouble working with people who didn’t like me, because I’ve never been particularly bothered by it. If your work is so full of those people that you really don’t like turning up every day, then finding a different job is a better reaction than getting too wound up about it.

I would think in this case some self-reflection would be useful. Not caring may cause someone to gloss over the why they are not liked by so many.

Obviously not everyone will like everyone. That's just how the world works. But, if there are a large amount of people at a workplace who actively do not like someone, that person should think about why that is.

Lol at saying everyone went back to work last week. Compared to last week, more people are locked down this week, some estimates saying fully 7% of the human population is under some kind of heightened restriction on movement.

Here’s TomToms real-time traffic congestion map of Shanghai: https://www.tomtom.com/en_gb/traffic-index/shanghai-traffic

Use the 7 day view and compare this week with last year at the same time. Using traffic as a proxy for economic activity and your assertion is clearly a misrepresentation. And Shanghai is not even close to the epicenter!

Remember as well that people leave home for the new year celebrations, and so now a huge chunk of people are locked down to their homes or quarantine hospices far from their places of business, plus probably scared as all get out to leave the house, and your thesis about some quick recovery into normalcy seems basically crazy.

Further, you’re relying on how much China’s growth has impacted the world economy in the last few years, and you’re right that it’s largely been domestic consumer growth fueling the country. But that is... an irrelevant measure? China’s economy may have gotten more focused on its own consumers for a while, but it didn’t like stop being the world’s factory to open up some web startups and KFCs. How many more days of basically zero containers of parts cause shutdowns of production lines in Detroit? How many of your prescription meds are either wholly made in China or are finished here but with precursors largely sourced from China?

2. people can afford housing, start a family and put down roots instead of going in insane debt, gig economy pseudo-jobs, changing jobs/moving like a pinball or living at work to burn-out

3. return to solidarity, cohesion, the Golden Rule and basic decency as the prevalent modality

... will they do so.
The U.S. revenue-side of government isn't encouraging you to start illegal businesses to improve tax receipts, they probably get almost no taxes from that form-box ... it's just much easier later when authorities find out about your illegal activities to convict you of evading taxes that were clearly and easily payable in the past than to convict you of your particular illegal behavior.
I don't believe private owners are the most interesting black-listed things. Military aircraft anyone? Who doesn't want to see those :)

I noticed a helo circling with a huuge spotlight a mile or so from my house, and the skies were empty according to flightradar24, but ads-b exchange showd me that it was a police helicopter. I can see the reason for blacklisting those, so the people being chased cant easily track the helicopter? Otoh theyre bloody obvious due to their noisiness imo so I dont think it would matter one bit for the 1% of criminals aware enough to use flightradar24 to somehow evade capture..

Once I worked in a department that had a crappy coffee maker. We got a new boss. First thing he did was get a really good coffee maker installed.

That boss left, new boss showed up, coffee maker left and an even worse one than the original was installed. No espresso! In SF!

In my experience having at least a VP who actually cares about the perk will vastly improve it. But most won’t care and will do whatever the default is.

There is nothing clueless about observation that people start playing games way sooner then they seek partners. There is nothing clueless about observation that it has social component - bonding among guys. In particular gamers tend to have whole social life composed of other gamers.

The guys you described are not failing to meet some super high expectations. You described people with drug and alcohol issues who have game addiction issues on top.

Romantic relationship is not the only source of company and relationships. You can't depend on one person for all your social and emotional needs.

There are slightly more girls then males at any given moment. There are plenty of single women around the world. They don't blame missing guys for their alcoholism (through plenty of them have other issues)

I'm only saying this partly in jest but I think it is conceivable that this line of defense is used by these communities and is absurd.

I do agree with you: a basic level of privacy should be there for everyone from (almost) everyone. In this particular case ATC should track aircraft and ensure that not everyone is going in any airspace willy-nilly.

It's kind of nice to know that you can walk 5 meters from your desk to get food, however it doesn't take long to realise that you'd rather 10 min to the nearest place and eat there instead. It gives you a bit of time outside the office,you move more and ultimately make your own decision on what you eat instead it being done by your lovely Big Corp.
The behaviour as described doesn't sound toxic unless they're using it to bully and are persisting after having discussed it. Your communication styles don't match and you need to handle it like any other inter-personal problem: talk to them about it. If you don't feel up to doing it 1 on 1 then ask your manager to help. If you've done all that then I'd say there's a problem and you need to escalate your response.

I see a beautiful symphony here. The fact that this is discussed is to me a sign that enough people are feeling pressured and stressed, and sharing how the current systems don't work for them.

Through sharing we can reveal our hopes and frustrations.

Bravo Hackernews community.

What ever pains people have, I'd like to ask them to try and see it as temporary growing pains. That maybe those who disagree with this development can see that others are sharing their unmet needs, as a request to help get help in getting those needs met. Exploring new strategies.

I believe we will make it through and come out stronger.

I read that as the OP saying they had specific experience/knowledge of it happing there, rather than intending to imply it happens there more than anywhere else.
> If you need some bizarre stateless property for horizontal scaling your sessions...

This feels quite short-sighted to me, even in 2017. Architecture for supporting highly available systems and so-called "crazy" horizontal scaling are not so different from each other, and pretty much everyone can benefit significantly from a highly available and fault tolerant architecture.

Stateless application architecture is significantly helpful in keeping a system simple and easy to deploy, which has huge impacts on overall development processes, ability to remediate vulnerabilities and ability to respond to changing requirements.
Honestly I expected worse. But then again if it was, writing about it would probably be a felony on its own.

C's weak type system proves my point.

Safer code can be written in C++ IF you take advantage of its type system to implement safety features, but the language doesn't force you to do this so there is much insecure C++ code around.

Go, Rust, Java, C#, Haskell, etc. are examples of relatively safe languages with type systems that mostly keep the foot guns in the foot gun cabinet.
> I expect a person who is willing to devote 60 hours a week to get paid more than me when I go home after 8 hours.

Apart from the fact you get diminishing returns on work quality for those sort of hours...

That person is neglecting their family and/or partner, or at the very least their own health if they're working those sort of hours. Where do they find time to work on personal relationships or do exercise?

It also skews job expectations by creating an atmosphere where other employees are pressured into working those sort of hours, with the same resulting problems.

If someone has no attachments, no outside interests, no interest in maintaining their health, and genuinely has that sort of energy and desire for work, let them pick up a part-time gig separate to their main job.
Google are doing a lot of long term research though. Huge investments in AI, search tech, big data, networking, the TPU stuff. Self driving cars. Contact lens screens. Head-mounted displays. Drones. The list goes on and on.

Makani was funded for 14 years! 14 years!! How many companies are willing to fund speculative research programmes in things unrelated to their core business for so many years? None, that I'm aware of.

Truth is Makani should have been shut down years ago. Government or corporate has nothing to do with it (that is, the same assessment would apply if it was funded by the government too). Their idea clearly wasn't competitive with the by now highly optimised wind turbine industry. It's not obvious why it ever was expected to be so.

This is a throwaway account, but I'd like some advice on this very subject.

I recently ended a working relationship with a company that had a problem with 'not liking' me.
I moved to another country to offer onsite services to this company, as I created the core (design and tech) of a product that unexpectedly performed very well and became the focus of their business. Unfortunately this meant throwing out years of work by their core team, the owners work included.

As I had only been working remotely and very part time till this point, I saw an understandable resentment toward me and addressed it head on with each of the team when I arrived onsite. I perhaps failed in this because I was met with nods, smiles, and a professional behaviour me most of the time but not friendship.
I was actively excluded from team lunches for example. And I heard less than favourable rumours about me in the local community, a community I never worked in.

This is ok, to a point if a little hurtful. As it didn't impact my work, I thought just letting it go was a better approach.
Many people had a secure job based on my work...thats probably my resentment talking but worth saying.

Anyway it came to a head when I asked for the money we agreed for my contribution. (I had held off charging till the company was on more solid ground) At this point I was quickly told that the owner created the thing I made for them. Not me.
Then closed ranks and told me I was a bad friend, refusing to pay obviously.

I think being left out in the cold all this time was a good sign that the company as a whole was planing something like this. Not explicitly but something.

Did I do the right thing in leaving? Am I the 'bad friend'?
Thanks. :)

Yeah, I've tried both A2+ (A2plus) and Assembly4. Both seem to work ok for at least basic things.

However Assembly4 requires attachment points to be defined in the source parts instead of just storing the attachment info in an Assembly file.

That means source parts will have Assembly4 stuff added to them, ruining their re-use (eg with external people) unless they're also using Assembly4 exclusively.

It's really unfortunate, as I wanted FreeCAD to be useful for publishing reference designs people could use even (say) 10+ years in the future. :(
They say it's a "self-maintaining moisture gradient." Obviously, if the moisture gradient remains despite being harvested for energy, it must be driven by some other energy gradient in the environment; but it's possible that the protein conversion to electricity has some benefits that directly harvesting this other gradient would not have.

Did you try talking to this person? Did you try having a personal & private chat with them? Are they aware of the impact of their behavior on the environment and their colleagues?

If no, then how about you try talking to them, making them aware of the impact of their behavior on you? You could go like:

"Hey, I've been meaning to talk to you for a while but I didn't know how to put it best, I'd appreciate it if you listen to me until the end, I have observed <list non-judgemental observations> and I personally think of them as <list impact it had on you>, I'd appreciate it if you could express your ideas/talk to me/write me in a way that is more productive and constructive. I don't want our interactions to always end up being negative and I am actually looking forward to discussing a lot of your ideas in the future. What do you think?"

Ask HN: Are the new TLDs bad for business?
I’ve noticed an increasing amount of generic TLDs being created. There are generic ones owned by obscure companies like .band and then others like .beauty owned by L’Oréal. In the former case, this feels like squatting and in the latter, monopolization on a whole namespace. In either case, it takes an exorbitant amount of money for the average person or company to get a generic TLD. What are people’a thoughts on the process for getting a TLD when it comes to pricing and the rules? Personally, I’m worried that we will have a polluted namespace with confusion about the legitimacy of certain TLDs.

> If you want privacy, owning an aircraft is not the way to go. Renting or chartering one might be better against casual observers, but there is still a paper trail. You may be able to add some more levels of indirection.

But that paper trail cannot be accessed through ADSB. If you charter a plane, there's no way someone can deduct who you are via ADS-B signals alone. And agencies with access to the paper trail don't need ADS-B to know where you went.
Interactive version: https://borismus.github.io/asimov/web/cross-shape/#geometry
If they want to cover their tracks they can just charter aircrafts. Hedge funds like to use ADS-B to track movements for information about upcoming mergers, they're probably a bigger threat to privacy than some hobbyists.
Having cruft in your top layer is fine and healthy; a sign of a living, evolving system that is still learning how best to do its job and hasn’t prematurely ossified.

The problems occur when a still-crufty layer becomes set in stone, ensuring its base defects go on to pollute everything built on top. That may happen either because its designers lack perspective and cannot accept their precious design is flawed; or because everyone else starts building on top before it is ready for prime-time, then reject all attempts to straighten it out because that would require them to rewrite as well.
If your job is more fulfilling than walking to a store and standing in line (and most programming jobs are IME), then it's win-win. Company gets something they want, I get something I want, we're both happy.
