the article is self-refuting in a way, although the message makes sense. The author describes simplicity as "fewer levels of abstraction, and each of them well understood" , like a ship rudder (which is a good definition). But no-code tools etc are anything but well understood, and usually introduce hundreds of levels of abstraction (due to their genericality). The same goes for frameworks that introduce tons of abstractions in order to cover cases that are irrelevant to the problem at task. Ideally, the chain of scripts that do one thing and can be read in 10 minutes is actually simpler and a much better way to fix the ship.
As a starter I found this article useful with best practices for the team, tools and processes. It's from Zapier: https://zapier.com/learn/remote-work/how-manage-remote-team/
Ignore React and all the community specific acronyms, you're talking about a very fundamental problem that is technology agnostic and it's important to understand it from that perspective, so you can take this knowledge with you to any tool.

Whenever you try to precompile or even just cache an HTML file that relies on run time data, you are going to have to build your application in a way that is sympathetic to that. In most cases, you're going to have to figure out how to fetch the missing data on the client side and populate it into the template/runtime context.

This is an issue in Ruby, PHP, Javascript, React, Angular, Python... every single application with caching or compilation.
I find it interesting there are so many diagramming software and most (all?) of them seem to be doing quite well :)
This holds up to a point. The systems that require really little downtime get progressively more complex.

Need to handle machine failures? Push a bugfix without causing downtime? Maintain a single state across the redundant machines? Handle load spikes? Ones created on purpose to DOS you?

All of this requires additional mechanisms, which can themselves cause failures.
what kind of details should be included to stand out?

making the whole CV public is not going to work for everyone, as some may not want to be identified while searching for a job.

This whole things seems extremely naive and almost like a different Troy Hunt...

Why KPMG? Their competence is below average for an above average price hiding behind a big corporate name. Why answer thousands of questions, the majority could have just been a copy paste one liner. You're selling a side gig, not a massive company. Also why selling it in the first place and then not wanting to give up control by limiting how the buyer can/wants to do with HIBP? If he didn't want to give away control then don't sell, find investment, find sponsors, find a business model which pays the bills and allows you to hire staff so you can scale it yourself. Decide what you want first :)

EDIT:

I think the increasing exposure and interest in HIBP has made Troy fantasize about a potentially nice cheque which a buyer could write him which could put him into early retirement, but then he realised two things along the process which made him change his mind on selling:

- HIBP is not really worth the amount that could retire a family (interest <> value, website hits <> value, etc.)

- The fan messages gave him a bad concience

In the end the whole thing was not worth it.
Do you not believe that a situation can be worse in one place than another?
Oh yeah, this is a problem with a lot of developers, reinventing the wheel because the native JSON parser might be improved upon. I mean it's a clear case of NIH, and yet it's also defensible because I'm sure most native / builtin JSON parsers are not as fast as a custom solution. And for an app like Messenger, moving to something else like grpc would be very defensible.
I'm probably the Mooers' expert here on HN. Mooers worked at the Naval Ordnance Lab headed by John Atanasoff, of Atanasoff-Berry computer fame. He was one of the very first people working on digital computers. (Eg, see https://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2020/1/241712-von-neumann-tho... ).

Unlike most people who worked with computers for numerical abilities and business accounting, he was interested in information search and management. He coined the terms "information retrieval" and "descriptor" and is one of the pioneers of IR.

While his ideas were reasonably widely known at the time, he self-published nearly all his papers as company white-papers. This makes it very hard to track down the original sources. I have a copy somewhere in my personal archives.

This one was reprinted in the Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, and is available from https://asistdl.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/bul... .

Eugene Garfield's tribute to Mooers is at https://www.the-scientist.com/commentary/a-tribute-to-calvin... .
Some MS apps will explode if they can't send telemetry. I tried it with MS Teams and it just kept bloating memory until it had to be killed. A mitmproxy config worked there to fake a 200 response to the telemetry endpoint and keep memory down.
Don't start sentences (or worse, paragraphs), with "so" -- sounds like an excuse.

Finally, you try to downvote my comments, and it doesn't make any sense, you should know that everyone's talent is different, just as your talent doesn't suitable for learning my theory, Or rather, you have no fate with the Tao.
To be fair, there's also wood/east-elves, fair/light-elves, grey-elves, green-elves, all of whom are bona fide elves.

So just because he's called "modifier+elf" doesn't mean they didn't think he's a proper elf.

Thank you for sharing this. I keep seeing people try to claim "but we don't know the true number of unreported cases therefore the true CFR is lower than reported" as if epidemiologists are somehow unaware of this factor.
We should really applaud Singapore Govt. here. I don't think any other place has handled the situation so well and so transparent.

> Wuhan is pretty developed.

Yes, western countries should not deceive themselves about the standard of care. Bruce Aylward of WHO says that they rapidly scaled up to world-leading capability [1]:

> they find cases fast, get them isolated, in treatment, and supported early. Second thing they do is ventilate dozens in the average hospital; they use extracorporeal membrane oxygenation [removing blood from a person’s body and oxygenating their red blood cells] when ventilation doesn’t work. This is sophisticated health care. They have a survival rate for this disease I would not extrapolate to the rest of the world. What you’ve seen in Italy and Iran is that a lot of people are dying.

The more that comes out about China's response, the more I fear that it will be hard for anyone else to follow, and not just or primarily due to the severe quarantine. China snapped its fingers and went to a wartime footing.
I'm on both sides of the fence on this one. On the one hand, it's people underestimating how much features are in the app that they've never seen, used or heard of. On the other, if that is the case then is their presence defensible?

I wonder if they could make apps more modular, and only load the binaries for e.g. payments on demand. I know Apple offers a system that does that for content chunks (e.g. levels and assets in games), and in a web-based application (e.g. react native) they could use bundling to remove it from the initial download.
If your whole raison d'etre is to be a trusted source on privacy and security matters, then putting yourself in a position where you can't speak objectively about the organisation that controls 10% of the internet's traffic is massively compromising that. I'm sure Hunt will do his best, but how could anyone possibly make a fair judgement of something controversial like "Flexible SSL" when his livelihood is dependent on them?
Each subject area is controlled by a relatively small number of people. There are about a dozen editors on each side of the Israeli-Palestinian issue who duke it out at each related article. There are about two dozen centrist Democrats who own most modern American politics articles. As a whole, Wikipedia may be edited by a large number of people, but if you spend any time editing any given subject area, you get to know the one or two dozen people who control it pretty quickly.
Also akin to freestyle rap, where the storyteller knows the beats of the tale they're telling, and comes up with a particular rhyme on-the-fly for each sentence by following the structure of the verse.
Do you have a source on which you are basing this conclusion?

From my perspective, it is pretty well established that Gandalf is Olorin, a Maia distinct from Manwe. The non-interference of the Valar in the Third Age is also well known so it is doubtful Manwe himself would appear physically in Middle-Earth.

Also, all Maiar (or rather, Ainur) are the same age or, more accurately, ageless, since they existed before the world.
And yet God made Sun, 'day' after he made fruit-bearing trees. Wonderful lack of coincidence.
If you have a large muscle and you keep it clean, the inside is especially clean. As soon as you cut it, the inside will be likely to get infected pretty quickly. That's why you don't make steak tartar from super market ground beef.

Similarly, you can eat raw fish (if you don't worry about parasites), but you pretty much want to eat them right out of the water. As soon as you cut it and leave it alone for a while, it can start to go off. This is, in fact, the origin of sushi. Originally, people in the interior of the country couldn't eat fish because you couldn't transport it without going off. Instead, they would pickle it. This pickling eventually made its way to the rice. Most Edo period sushi used pickled fish.
He did a great interview with Kevin Spacey.
It might look that way in hindsight, but hindsight is easy. As is armchair theorizing about the competence of other developers.

Most people (including myself) will probably never see a >500K loc application or a project with >100 developers working on it. Biggest ones I've worked with had around 30-50 odd developers?
A bunch of paragraphs to type out KISS.
"Rich man believes propaganda."
People are still using 32 bit floats in games and it's not something that has been solved by good 64-bit FPUs.
DevOps would seem the perfect path out to me. You won't have to work on code anymore, but you could still use your coding experiences when implementing deployment solutions.
This all gets interesting when mixing sRGB, Display-p3 or Lab colors in gradients and animations. There's an open issue about it at W3C: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4647

I think Safari currently fails to display such gradients.
Those benchmarks are weird. We did a test, just for fun, comparing wireguard and IKEv2 using strongswan (using ike=aes128gcm16-prfsha256-curve25519!). Strongswan came out ever so slightly faster, but with a SHITLOAD of retries. We tried different things, but the only way we got the retires down was switching cipher to chacha20-poly1305 (which made it sliiiightly slower than wireguard). There was basically zero network latency in this test, which makes me wonder how IKEv2 would have looked over the real internet.

As you said: I am not a network admin, so I probably botched something. Which, I guess, is another point for wireguard in my book. It lacks many of the bells and whistles of IPsec, which means less to configure for the average stupid home user (me).
This is good, however I noticed DigitalOcean's IP blocks are banned by a few sites.
A practical guide to protecting your indie game
GitDuck | Remote | Senior Backend Engineer | Full-time | https://www.notion.so/Senior-Backend-Engineer-e6b6aaea01bb42...

GitDuck is a code and screen sharing tool for developers. We allow them to create videos linked to their codebase so they can easily explain their code to their teammates.

We're looking for independent engineers who enjoy building things and are comfortable with significant responsibilities, you'll own large parts of the codebase.

As one of the first hires, you'll be crucial for scaling the company including its architecture, testing, monitoring, codebase, best practices, culture, etc.

GitDuck is mainly built with JavaScript and some TypeScript. Node on the backend and Next.js+React on the frontend. Our systems are hosted in Google Cloud using Kubernetes.

We really appreciate if you've worked with video or real-time communication technologies before (video infrastructure, live-streaming, WebRTC, WebSockets, FFmpeg, etc.)
So any management position is exploitation? Being the boss of any manufacturing business is exploitation?

Hint: Even if you take only 1% of the work but employ 1000 people you are going to get rich.

Your benchmark for what is exploiting seems to not work particularly well in practice.
It still feels surreal to look at pictures from another planet.
Is there any ongoing cost to staying registered with ARIN or any other registry if you own a block like this?
I don't know what world you live in, but in my world developers don't have to look for excuses to do work. Perhaps some companies running on endless VC overhire, but the real working world has fewer employees for most positions than it needs.

And in the case of Messenger, I highly doubt it was the developers who said, "Hey, let's add this completely unrelated thing to our codebase - payments!". More likely it was marketing or "product" that told the devs what to add.
Honest question: how one can ditinguish coronavirus from other "pandemics" of recent years like svine flu or bird flu or whatnot? Those happened primarily on TV news, and the informational background was about the same: apocalyptic pictures of empty airport, packed hospitals, etc. Why should an average Joe care more this time?
Yes, that would be my guess as well. They seem(ed) to be the most aligned with his mission. Giving him the freedom to stay in his home while also being in a corporate environment that could give him the necessary know how and back up to grow his baby.

If we're looking at the recent Covid-19 detections, they are in (for example) Seattle and Manhattan, so these particular urban areas are likely among the first to need quarantine, and they aren't predominantly black.

Only a very small fraction of the population live in truly rural areas, but they would also be affected by quarantine restrictions on long-distance travel, and have a large proportion of "true individualists" who might be motivated to intentionally sabotage (for example) such checkpoints as a matter of principle.

Also, suburbs would definitely need quarantine, although it's easier in literal gated communities.

However, I think that you may have a point regarding the sensitivity of the racial relationships. If some government actions start harmfully affecting predominantly groups of one race (and it will be different groups in different places), then given the historically strained relationships in USA, it's likely that some of these groups will perceive the government as their enemy and try to resist any measures even if they're actually helpful for the health of their community.

In theory, RISC meant smaller number of simpler generic instructions (reg<->reg, mem<->reg) which could be re-used to build complex functionality. However in practice one always needs specific operations for performance reasons.

Having more and more specialized operations not only adds extra HW for rarely used ops, it also increases the program code size and also compiler complexity.
Web only. However, there haven't been any updates on that for over two years [1]

But could it be that the OS functionality also evolved until today where it’s finally feasible to do this?

I’m guessing the oldest code in Messenger stems from a time when the OS-provided libraries were not up to par or simply didn’t exist yet. Partly because it’s not until now that the OS manufacturers finally see what there is demand for in apps.
I live there, too. I concur.

Your thesis seems to be

1) If billions are spent on something and it didn’t already happen, that means it won’t likely happen soon, and

2) If people predict something will happen, and it doesn’t, that means no prediction of that thing can ever be credible.

But those don’t seem like logically sound inferences to me.
Not really. You don't need to get anywhere close to 100% to effectively make coal too expensive to be worth it.
Even if he just convinces a few big ones that will make coal operations more expensive, hence less attractive also for other ones, hence more expensive... .
Viscous cycle, virtuous cycle and all that. To win you only need the price to increase to a higher level than preferable alternatives and the market will do the rest.

No, it doesn't. NAT does not prevent inbound connections, only a stateful firewall does, and if you do have that, then NAT does not add anything.
Wales is right about one thing, though. This fact does have enormous policy
implications. If Wikipedia is written by occasional contributors, then
growing it requires making it easier and more rewarding to contribute
occasionally. Instead of trying to squeeze more work out of those who spend
their life on Wikipedia, we need to broaden the base of those who
contribute just a little bit.

The problem is that, as a community, Wikipedia has gone out of its way to do the opposite of that. New content is often treated as "guilty until proven innocent", and it's up to the contributor to wade through Wikipedia's idiosyncratic rules and definitions in order to justify to the moderators why their edits should not be reverted or their articles deleted.

I feel skeptical as Intel is involved.
Not because of money, but Intel has been putting so much effort on some "suboptimal" enhancements that lead to problems as we've been seeing in the past years such as spectre, meltdown, and other newer ones from past weeks, that it is hard to commit that this one hour performance won't go up to 100 hours because of a workaround patch at operating system level.

Go live in a "food forest" (https://ruralsociologywageningen.nl/2016/11/23/foof-forests-...) and you'll be quite well off.

In fact, you'll survive longer and live better because the commercial agriculture will be mass growing monocultures, gradually reducing their soil quality (eventually making the soil barren), and providing less variety of vitamins and nutrients.
