Exactly!

Everyone on this planet has a GMail account and if Google understood what customers want, Meet would have had Zoom for lunch.

Today, anyone who works remotely and is not tied into Teams, have heard of Zoom.

Very few, including GMail users, know about Meet.

Meet missed a big - perhaps once in a decade opportunity.

Users already have Zoom on their phone and computers. There is 0 reason to use Meet if they were not already.
I was really excited to see coaching listed and it was on target of good advice. But it was generic also. I didn't see any related to permission based questions. And I'll admit I didn't study the material heavily yet but I plan to and hopefully be involved to expand on it. That being said I think this is a great project! I look forward to seeing managers adopt whatever they can

I worked in that industry for a good chunk of time and there is a lot more to it.

I'm no expert. But I strongly believe 1 on 1 are a complete waste of time. I've never seen them be productive.

And don't get me started on 360s. They basically mean you hate your employees
I get to fix other people shit code because our tech lead has an attitude like yours and has made poor tech decisions in the past in order to learn new things. He is too busy learning things and building new parts to the system to to write any tests or document anything, or even to explain things properly.
Can you give us a link to a story about this? I'm curious to see how (some) companies planned for the economic downturn.
I'm bored so let me bite: how is Zoom a Chinese company

the reporters have great access and great information. The tone and perspective though are what they are.
The US has a large per capita CO2 footprint that could be significantly reduced, but CO2 production is correlated with GDP and the US has a significantly higher GDP per capita than Europe. Countries that produce more per capita also use more energy per capita on average, which makes sense.

Transportation in the US will have a larger CO2 footprint than other countries for a very long time simply by virtue of size and geographic population dispersion. Similarly, the vast herds of ungulates aren't going away no matter what we do with agriculture, it is a critical and natural part of the North American ecosystem.

What constitutes a reasonable CO2 footprint per capita has a significant dependency on local conditions. Some regions have intrinsically higher CO2 footprints than others, ceterus paribus. In a world where everyone is trying to optimize for CO2 footprint (not the case today), a fair result will still have large differences across regions.
You're never going to persuade anyone with that attitude.
SaltStack 2019.2.4 and 3000.2 – Patch your masters
1) I'm assuming if you're old enough to want to keep years off your education, then you're probably old enough that you're not putting work history from your early/mid 20's on your resume. Maybe you're 40 and only need to put your last 10 years to show relevant work history. This probably varies a lot person to person, but for me it works very well.

2) Getting an interview is all a resume is good for in the first place. Now they've invested their time in you and you have a chance to sell yourself.

3) Same here, but even people who "know" me professionally don't necessarily know my age. I certainly don't know all of their ages! Plus if they know you, they already have an incentive to care less about your age.
Have you looked into Consulting? I'm mid 30s and I see consultants way older bringing in cash by jumping in on projects that are using a slightly older stack (not all the time older) and crushing it. Seriously there is work out there for consultants and they can do awesome stuff. I've even seen consultants at startups. Good luck!
It's pretty easy to have a project look like progress is being made in the moment, especially when presenting to the director+ level, where a manager is presenting on 4-5 different projects. It's even easier with projects that aren't important or highly-visible (as internal projects tend to be).
I doubt the people who don’t care, will care what some nerd says about their tech practices.

Advocating for some rando normie to use Linux is arguably malpractice.

Advocating for a software enthusiast / developer / privacy wonk etc to use and create open systems and tools is completely reasonable and potentially impactful.

It’s the people who create stuff that need to take the moral stand. The unwashed masses are, uh, the unwashed masses.
You were technically in the wrong considering that California stops are never actually legal, but it is extremely reckless to ride at 15mph on the sidewalk, especially if you’re barreling through intersections AND “salmoning” aka riding against the flow of traffic.

If you’re going to ride a bike on the sidewalk you should act like a pedestrian, for everyone’s safety.

If there is a bike lane/acceptable shoulder, you should be riding on that.
Since i am banned i can no longer access any of my posts.

What you can do is this:

Look for the comments in areas where the articles talk about Apple, Microsoft etc..

Look for the vote tally's (Hidden comments will have the same downvotes) +/-(3-6votes) as the next comment. (next comment has similar votes that are upvoted).

You will notice the hidden comments in these type of articles are usually enough to warrant investigations themselves.
Fair, but a lot of them do sit on the bench and do some moderate walking at most.

I'd expect people doing these regular sprints to be more aware of their body and move around more in anticipation of the next set.
"How can I make it more neutral?"

Just show the numbers. If there's something you'd like to show what the numbers mean, then be careful about explaining that. Make clear distinctions between metrics and goals. Think about all the metrics you think will tell you that you're approaching a goal; then find all the ways they will break. I already said how your metric-of-choice is broken and cheat-able.

"Is it sometimes worthwhile to simply accelerate the deployment of capital?"

Is this what you believe your role is?

You're going to burn yourself out by trying to find human levers to change the world. Some of us will be there to welcome you to the club, but I know some people who haven't made it. I'm not one to say whether you should hop on or jump off that train. Usually, there's something else that's going on in my life that leads me to that kind of mindset.

There are contradictions in our language and value-systems, and it's total bullshit, but we chose to pretend to believe them because that's what you need to do to get in for the ride. Lots of people forget that they are pretending, and some of re-remember it in adulthood or something.

So the difficulty in determining in "who that is" might be one of those contradictions popping up.

Without reading the article, I can say yes, yes we are.

There are very few exceptions to this depending on your career and mindset. I can say that I enjoyed life a lot during my 8 years in the military, and it had nothing to do with the job ( the job sucked ). It had everything to do with the people. Friendships forged, the understanding involved, the familial bond that came with it. That made me feel happy.

After that, normal jobs were just busy work. Which iswhy I'm happy to say that my current job ( 100% remote ) is much more satisfactory, and not as "busy". I enjoy life as it is. I lucked out so far.

But I will say that while everyone might have different standards of "enjoying life", the key factor is actually _belonging_ to a family. Doesn't mater if that family is blood related, it just needs to be people you fully trust and can do anything with and be completely comfortable with.

This is not something that is easily attained, but it can be easier to find if you're not working some shit job 10 hours a day every day five days a week with no chance of vacation and no job security.

That shit needs to change,a nd the majority of us are slaves to it.
In my opinion, the Web going bad has nothing to do with the technical layer. The protocols are fine.

What destroys openness is commercialization. It's hard to make a business in an open environment, because you'd be relying on the good will of people whom you provide value. So everyone tries to lock everything down and set moats. For instance, a good chunk of non-openness of the web boils down to: you can't let people access your site programmatically, because they'll develop more ergonomic/efficient UIs to it, and suddenly masses stop visiting your site and viewing ads.

Openness works best if things are given away without strings attached. So if you have an open side-web, you'll need to set up a culture or a set of rules to protect it, and be prepared that they'll kill the commercial usefulness of it.

I agree. Employees don't always have problems to bring up in 1on1s but, when they do, it's better for them to vent sooner rather than later so that it can be taken care of before it can spread to other employees.

It's like the frog in boiling water thing. If you do a 1on1 every quarter, you're much more likely to have missed issues that are now full-blown emergencies instead of a quick, breezy conversation in your office.
Matt Levine has wrote at length about this. Neumann does not have a case.

Which hopefully would be paired with more inter-urban high-speed rail regionally* where it would make sense in terms of mirroring or even beating your standard drive/flight time.

Hell, even if a more widespread high-speed rail system were still slower than air travel I would still take it because air travel is absolutely miserable and I detest it with every fiber of my being.

*I specify regionally because I know someone is going to "WELL AKSHUALLY " me on the fact that the US is a large spread out country and intercontinental high speed rail wouldn't work (though I would love to take a train from NYC to LA because why not?).
Use it to cache certain request payloads that are guaranteed not to change for a certain amount of time (e.g. 1-minute stock market aggregates that only change once a minute).
It's not legal for prospective employers to ask you these kinds of questions. If you're talking about your wife and kids during the interview process, you're doing it wrong.

My last round of interviews was at age 46. Went from being (voluntarily) unemployed to a FAANG job. I had to do the same stuff the 20-somethings do: practiced hackerrank, answered stupid whiteboard dynamic programming questions that have nothing to do with the job, etc. But at no time did I talk about my personal life with anyone involved in hiring.
That would be a diagnostic failure. Treating someone with anti-depressants when they do not have clinical depression could ruin their life, even end their life (suicide is a side effect of many anti-depressant medications).
They're pedestrian hostile. That creates a vicious cycle of driving people out to suburbs, hollowing out businesses that would cater to full time residents, making it even less desirable to live there.
Any number of ways:

- What are your hobbies?

- What drives you?

- Where do you see yourself in five years?

- Would you be willing to work long hours often?

- Can you work in the USA?

And so on.

There's so many questions that are legal to ask but for which an honest answer would reveal private information.

I don't get it. Imagine an HN where random people who never did any software started flooding HN with articles about how the software people are lying to us all and just making big bucks. Software is easy, here is how to make great software. And every single one of them was just random near-garbage pulled from a couple minutes reading slides from Agile experts and the occasional wiki article about "software abstraction".

It would be downvoted so fast for being so wrong, and no one would engage with it for being so terribly wrong because disproving all the points is exhausting and not worth the time. Yet, you would think it OK on HN.

Maybe you downvote some of the wrong ones, but others get lots of comments, and soon all these wrong posts just get more attention and comments as people are arguing over half-made points in a blog post by a sales guy that "has a few software friends".

The long-term changes to HN would eventually push away people that care.

But we don't live in that world, maybe not yet. So instead we allow people who get so many basic facts wrong about an epidemic to post on HN, and @dang explained elsewhere why this makes sense (and I agree from a moderating standpoint to keep this content up) and I agree with it.

But we really only allow this content because it isn't the bulk of content on HN. If the bulk of content on HN resembled the above, I don't think we would like the community HN becomes.

Quite ironically, this is highly related to the virus itself. The virus isn't a problem on its own. It is a problem because it infects hundreds of millions of people very quickly, and we have poor means for slowing or stopping it at all.

Very much like misinformation.
This works except in the case where your backups include live database files (where you put the database in extended logging mode, back up the data files while they are being modified, then back up the logs).

I haven't found a good way to verify these without doing a full database restore and seeing if the logs apply cleanly, along with having the DB do internal checks.
I do. Electric cars are already better for a lot of urban/suburban lifestyles. A few tech improvements will make them so much better that many ICE cars in these areas will have negative utility.

Tons of high-quality used cars will hit the market, driving the price close to zero, and eliminating the new ICE market (why buy a $30K new ICE car when you can get a used ICE car that's almost as good for $5K?).
I guarantee there were some technical people saying this was a waste of time and money.
One is part time. My primary employer is a bank about an hour drive away (not rush hour) so I am enjoying a huge gush of extra time due to COVID19.

My part time job is Army Reserves, though starting today it became my primary employer. There are a surprising large number of people who work two professional jobs whether charity, military, freelance, startups, or other.
I guess it depends somewhat on what you're backing up and what the anticipated failure modes might be. As an example, if there was a bug in my todo software that deleted a bunch of entries, the hash scheme wouldn't pick that up. You've just successfully backed up corrupted data, and you're not aware of it. SQL dumps would be another good example of this. If one day you do a backup and the backup reports that it has archived significantly fewer rows than yesterday, you know something's up. Maybe a fault lost some data, maybe the archiver is broken, etc.
Is there much of an upside to doing the multiplexing on the client side instead of on the server (with something like tmux)?

It seems to me like the session persistence tmux gives would be worthwhile if you have a lot of simultaneous sessions going.

More votes for sshuttle!

It's a poor man's one way VPN: It inherits encryption/integrity/authentication (and some authorization) from ssh; It works incredibly well; For most practical network purposes it puts you on the computer you are sshuttlling to; And all it needs on that computer is the ability to ssh into it and some version of python - no special privileges or prior installations.

The bad: It only does TCP (and does some UDP magic to make DNS work, but not UDP in general). It's only one way (no one on the destination network can "call you back", as you don't have an IP on that network). The only config is which network addresses get routed across the sshuttle (no policy / rules / firewall / anything else). You appear to come from the computer you shuttled to (so, unlike a real VPN, for better or worse - no policy along the way can tell you are coming from outside)

I would use my own domain, so that I have the control of my site. Why hand over the control to Medium or Wordpress.com?

Same thing with the SEO. Why give the SEO juice to Medium instead of your own personal domain?

Building a static site with e.g. Hugo or Jekyll is an appealing choice. If you want you can use Cloudfront + S3 to host it.

OTOH, Wordpress is very convenient to work with and quick to set up. If you don’t have a VPS there are shared web hosting sites that should be good enough in the beginning at least. Shared web hosting can also be used for static sites.

I went to community college and I knew tons of people that paid their way through with low-skill jobs. It certainly requires some discipline though.
Debt to me is just something that buys time by making things immediately available. I think it's healthy only if it supports real growth. For a person, if they need money now to buy an education, home, or other thing that will be put to productive use, debt is valuable they don't need to save up for years at a less productive state first. Same for companies -- 'responsible' debt can unlock growth by meeting obvious and pressing demand today. The future is unclear, so this is of course riddled with traps and competitive pressures, but at least there is a chance that money today rather than tomorrow is a good thing, if your returns can beat the interest rate you pay.

The more predatory side of taking on excessive debt, because one's back is against the wall or one wants to make an impulse purchase, gives you very little additional time (e.g. weeks or months instead of years). This kind of debt is dangerous.
Zoom is an American company, with an American CEO, listed on an American stock exchange, headquartered in the United States of America.

Like many companies that are lax about security, it outsourced a lot of its engineering to save money.

If you want to avoid it, avoid it because it clearly prioritizes good UX over security for a communication tool where security is critical. But please lay off the evidence-free claim that Zoom is linked to the CCP.
I'm reminded of a line in a movie recently. The spouse had died, and a friend commented "Never put off doing things, because we don't know how long we have." They replied "You don't get it. What I miss is, doing nothing. I just want to do nothing with them, again."
Sounds like you're arguing based on the "real world", where as the grandparent is based on people's perceptions of it. That perspective is widespread however, whether fair, accurate or not.
in this case, this benefits the local establishment because it supports the various manufacturing industries it is adjacent to, so in some sense it isn't really 'countercultural' or proof of 'openness' at all
I'm a SWE hiring manager. I love to hire older, experienced devs. I want somebody who can be self-directed and can effectively talk to stakeholders to come up with a good solution. My experience has been that (some!) older developers are more able to do this.

That said, if you're an older dev that hasn't kept up with the times, I'm prob not going to hire you.

I even work in SV :)
You’re forgetting the most crucial and definitely centralized aspect of Bitcoin: the developers. Their influence over the protocol’s modifications outweighs a large sum of random individuals’.

This is why the vast majority of my writing is on paper, never to be published. The act of writing helps me order my thoughts, and that’s much easier to do if I can be confident they’re only for me.
A good related question is: what will be the "future" of software development? I would bet that WASM and Rust will become more and more dominant in a 5-10 years timeframe. But it's so hard to come up with an informed opinion, as many developers tend to become "religious" about their language of choice.
