I've found that using things like React, for things as mundane as a blog or marketing site, just makes me sad. If my pursuit was to spend my time thinking about tricky issues — which it is — I get sad when to output doesn't necessitate the complexity I navigated to get there. Whatever I end up doing next, I hope it's something more interesting than webpages re-invented. Even working on purely design is way more challenging and interesting, and necessarily so, than frontend web "engineering". Things that do fall outside of this reduction are fully interactive applications like Mapbox studio that really weren't feasible before.
The market is very strong, but at the same time every single company insists on the hazing and crazy algorithm grilling. We should start accepting that not every company is FAANG, not every company is solving FAANG hard problems, and not every programmer belongs to the 0.001% best
If it's just blocked, you could probably look at the io_uring kthreads. But as I mentioned in another comment, bpftrace is probably a more useful tool for things like this (and it's useful for general kernel debugging too!).
Yeah, it's good but somewhat diverged from the practical part unless you are an onsite student.

I wonder what are alternatives (video lectures or textual resources) with more hands-on approach implementing database systems.

I’ve chosen to give up profanity online, and it’s generally not a huge problem but I run into issues occasionally. I need to be creative when quoting people sometimes as I try to ship around their cursing. Certain phrases just lack i the right “oomph”: I might call someone impolite while really wanting to use another term.

But intelligence is directly connected to it, too. And I'm not even speaking about generic aspect: it's the cultural thing of how important education is perceived to be. In Russia, two generations after the revolution you could still guess where did the family originally come from originally by this cultural divide alone.

It seems popular among certain sociopolitical groups to see other people getting nice things and feel entitled to getting those same nice things yourself, without regard for any effort expended or risks taken by the first group. It's pure "you have, I see, I want, I should be able to take".

Why did they rename draw.io to diagrams.net?
Had a go, couldn't really work out how to do anything, not sure if it's due to being on a MBP with a trackpad.
I was also curious, as they didn't mention their age.

As the age of retirement is currently ~67 (depends on the country but unlikely to go down in the future) and we assume you start your career after college in your early 20s - let's say 22 - you get ~45 years of work.

Let's say the above is closer to a maximum than an average & "generously" go with a round 40 years of work; Then mid-career would be in your 40s.
Ageism in tech is well-established and widely reported. If you're too old for the game by the time you reach 40, your mid-career does indeed fall somewhere in your late 20s/early 30s.
How do you deal with multiline data? For example, what if I wanted to add a multiline code snippet?
You misunderstood the problem. The important part is not writing the html, it's writing the text. This solution is centered around the best collaborative/cloud text editing that you can find for free. How does your solution address the scenario in the article of trying to work on the text of a post from a tablet?

For me the Google dependency would be bothersome, but the reality is I still end up using Google Docs for authoring text collaboratively. (At least where Overleaf won't do)

The American delusion of aremd citizens defending constitution is just that - a delusion. In real life army mops the floor with small minority of suicidal rebels, and the rest begrudgingly return to their usual jobs because it's much better than starving and fearing for life every day.
I've been looking at draw.io and PlantUML - what has worked well for others? draw.io is much easier to get into, but I can see declarative diagrams making maintenance easier for long-lived docs.
On the backend, shiny technologies like Go have been exploding — Go modules only stabilized this year!

This is only true in shops where webdevs dabble in back end, same as node.js. In most places you will find recent versions of things that may be decades old - Python, Postgres, Apache, even Linux itself.
Yep. Like the monitor arm but better.

Especially because they are released with time in between for maximum effectiveness. I bet they will release another useless $1000 option next in a few months. Idk, a $1200 black case or a $600 mouse or something.

Oh! An external wireless keyboard with touchbar and touch ID for $400! That would be a great move. I bet people will actually buy it as well.

Am I the only one who wants to see a split into a "fast compile" mode and a "spend hours making every optimization possible" mode?

Most code is executed a lot more frequently than it is compiled, so if I can get a 1% speed increase with a 100x compile slowdown, I'll take it.

I don't want to see good PR's that improve LLVM delayed simply because they cause a speed regression.
Yup, some people swear so much it becomes a stop- or filler word, padding out a sentence unnecessarily.

I mean you could insert a variation of "fuck" half a dozen times in the above sentence and it would add nothing of value to it.
Truer words never written. It’s amazing to me how many ways we can dress up “oh, you’re poor? Well, uh, have you tried...not...being poor?”
I've always assumed it's meant firmly tongue-in-cheek, but it's very morbid humour. But it's also a reminder of how powerless people in the past still managed to take action to rectify injustices, even if it happened in an overly brutal manner. In free, democratic societies, people should have more power to create the change society needs, but it doesn't seem to be working.

But it's also a reminder that if the powerful people in society offer too much resistance to the change the people need, at some point the only way to get that change is by extreme overreaction.

Personally I'd rather see the revolution happening by the soap box or the ballot box rather than the ammo box, but when media and voting systems get gamed and corrupted while people's rights and needs keep getting trampled upon, at some point a more violent solution may become unavoidable. But that's going to be very hard to steer and have many harmful side effects.

It already exists and it is called HTML. It is how JS is used to load page contents that can not be tolerated.

Follow progressive enhancement. No JS should be required to load the contents of a page. If JS is included it should be to replace what would otherwise require a full page reload.

If it is not possible to load the contents of a page without JS or the JS fails to complete, then the page should show its alternative contents. The page shall under no case be left blank. This is graceful degradation.
> You need to be at the right place, the right moment, have the right amount of money and or the right equipment, interests and skills. And only then your sense of opportunity and effort will take you places.

If you flip that around, you get "Anyone, anywhere, any time, with any amount of money and any (or no) equipment, interests or skills should be able to be start and own a successful business." Does that really sound like a reasonable expectation?

This comment was flagged dead, and I have vouched for it. Please don't downvote it ... it clearly shows an underlying misunderstanding, and as such deserves to be answered.

My comment that you reference was an attempt to find the merit in the idea that I couldn't see, but I assumed would be there because I was assuming the proposer thought it was a good one. I was starting from a position of "Well, this person thinks it's a good idea, but I can't see why, so let's see if we can find how it would work, and what problems it solves. Then we can address any potential drawbacks."

It was intended to be an invitation to get some discussion about how it would work, what it would do, what problems it would solve, and where the value lay. I was surprised and disappointed that no reply was forthcoming, and the thread died.

I guess I just wasn't clear enough, and for that I am saddened.

On a related note, suppose that you already spent too much time to try to really understand the code and asked the developers for the motivations for their strange desing decisions. How do you present criticism in a constructive way then?
Right, and the picture of the "new MacBook Air" is of the previous generation (with full-height left/right arrows keys). And they talk about "the consumer focused iMac and iMac Pro": the iMac Pro is not in the price range of a consumer.

So two errors in the article, obvious to anyone who knows the slightest bit about Apple's product line, doesn't lead me to trust that the author knows what they're talking about.
Yup, intent is more important than the actual words.

Not sure how taxes work in the US exactly. Here in Hong Kong we have withholding tax but no capital gain tax, so you can effectively buy zero coupon 3 month govy notes tax free.
Word. I'm working at a very diverse, politically correct European company, yet the copywriters wanted to put out a job ad which said

They said it doesn't have a controversial connotation since we are not recruiting in the US. IMO it absolutely does.
Yeah this seems like two very different use cases. Stating the obvious: when debugging I want as fast builds as possible. When shipping I want as fast software as possible.
I think its really useful to have track of things you come across when doing a project and learning something new.
Yes you can google search but if you have already written it somewhere its just easier to go back to and further more you can even share it with other people and they might discover something new too.
> Don't let developers style native elements. A drop down should not be designed by people except for the owners of the OS. Yes, it looks different on different OS but your application should be more than putting lipstick on a pig.

> Accept the fact that your application looks different on different OS'es but embrace the fact that your application works intuitively to the users, you have much less to maintain and focus on the logic of your app.

I'm not sure if this was supposed to be a case of 'how it once was' or 'how it should be', but this was never a reality, at least after the 90s. Native apps have always tried to style themselves just so (my company has a C# B2B GUI that has a little bit of assembly somewhere calling a Windows interrupt directly because they couldn't figure out another way to change the color of some window element). Even the earliest web pages were often trying to look as different as possible.
It's not about dismantling walmart. At least from the 'socialist' point of view, its redistributing capital that is just sitting idle. For example, take away the majority of zucks and bezos stock, and just give it away evenly to the people. That's not dismantling the company, its just a redistribution of wealth that has been earned off the backs of middle class.
psst..it's a joke.

They're welcome to leave. Society doesn't need rich people.

Destroying the system would do more damage, but so far it's been their system that enables their accumulation of wealth. There are a lot of poor people who want to destroy that system.
This should be an optimisation that you choose to enable, though, right? It might be prohibitively expensive to run the compile for other reasons (time to do a deploy for a fix, time and cost to run builds for CI etc.) so it has to be something that can be dialled up/down.

I'm not convinced that is the case. I'm going to guess they can take away his citizenship if he has citizenship elsewhere. I'm not sure they can refuse a citizen without citizenship elsewhere, though. This would leave the dude stateless - and while a few countries do this to their citizens, I'm nearly certain that Germany is not one of them.

Every other country - the ones where he is a foreigner - can most certainly refuse his entry, though.
That’s pretty much like saying “I don’t trust any blog hosted in blogger.com on Apple because I can find an Apple article every day”.

This site is hosted at yc.com not commons.tech. While the pursuit of intellectual curiosity demands dang and crew work to be inclusive to a point, the final trump card remains “this isn’t actually a tech commons and they do properly ask some people to leave if the pain of their dissent is consistently and significantly greater than their contributions.”

In that limited sense, telling people to leave who unproductively disagree with their position is quite productive.

> Middle click to open an email in a new window doesn't work, if it was a normal web page that would have come for free

The fact that things like middle click and right click can be overridden in javascript is pretty much one of the biggest failings of modern browsers in my opinion. It's developers giving the middle finger to standards, and browsers accomodating those whims without considering the end user whatsoever. If your grand design doesn't include basic functionality that browsers provide then great, feel free to create a native application that fits that design. Otherwise, please leave the functionality that I rely on every day, and works in 99% of other sites, alone.
Fun fact: Google Maps on any smartphone will show a VR-ish interface if you go into street view and tap the compass icon.
But finally, this was Unix, with a beautiful GUI, on the open platform I cared about. (I've written in assembly, written an assembler, my own boot sector, gui toolkit in the VGA/MCGA days, so I care about x86).

All this whinging about Apple on HN is getting a bit tiring, there is rarely any substance to it.
Definitely not a 0 sum game. You can perfectly have real strategies and earn money just betting on currencies, either intra curve (buy/sell different maturities on the same currency) or cross curve (one currency versus an other one).
Theres actually quite a lot of hedge funds doing that.
You will most likely want to start with a "carry" trade: buying a cheap currency by selling your $USD, and enjoy the higher interests on that currency.
Security reasons apparently. This is news to me too.

Fair enough, I've been playing with D a lot lately, which is basically "what if python was a C dialect instead". It's an incredibly simple language to learn but it's no less easy to write in than python. For most things I still reach for python though, probably because I've grown comfortable with duck typing.

side-note when starting with D: make sure to install dub. it's the package manager and basically eliminates makefiles from the compilation process. Just "dub init" and "dub run" and you're off to the races.

Path tracing with colors still presents some challenges. Most mainstream renderers use RGB model, but of course real world has the full EM spectrum.

For example for the Cornell box scene, imagine that the wall was pure green material and the box pure yellow material. Then there shouldn't be that visible secondary bounce, but with naive RGB path tracing there would be, because it wouldn't be able to distinguish between pure yellow and mixed yellow.

In practice I would expect the effect to be pretty subtle in most scenes, but e.g. scenes lit by sodium streetlights could have stark difference. For example something like https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Red_and_black_cars...

I agree with this take the most. Everyone with a decent amount of cash or a job that lets them work remote is a-ok right now. In fact, they're doing great: picking up all kinds of assets for cheap right now, stock, cars, land, you name it. People who have lost their jobs are selling all that, since they need the money. Notice who is losing and gaining value in this situation.

$megacorps arent dying, they're thriving. The economies of scale they have built are doing great right now, since all the smaller players are essentially stopped, and people still need their stuff.
