Ask HN: Do you have an interesting job seeking story?
Job seeking maybe painful, but sometimes there are some interesting stories behind the scene. Do you happen to have one? Let's share.
Agreed! Always trade offs. Will give that a read. Thanks again.
Of course not. This is just yet another excuse for a vendor to lock you in.
Only, you know, without the need for WeWork.
It depends on what work you’re doing. It wasn’t all that long ago that most people were using 17” monitors in the office. For a lot of people (myself included) lots of screen real estate is nice occasionally but I can work fine 95% of the time on my 16” laptop screen. A laptop stand and external keyboard/mouse makes a big difference to productivity when working from a laptop all day mostly because it’s much more comfortable.
> You sue

You may not get the chance. Some damage is irreversible and a lawsuit will probably only bring you some legal expenses. Preventing disasters is smarter and cheaper than inviting them and then clogging up a courtroom to complain that the perfectly preventable disaster actually happened after you invited it.
It was % to indicate environment variables.

It would be for me. I am constantly handling looking at reference material and it's easier to turn my head than alt-tab, but I suppose that's a learned skill, same as changing out a trackpad for a mouse.
Sure, I didn't realize the account thing was against the rules.

I don't mind being flagged though. This is a [YC invested] company that just exhibited another example of the valley libertarian "the rules don't apply to me as long as I make money [or I get caught]" mentality. And hey, if that's what his priority is, more power to him! I personally think "sociopath" is an accurate label for that group of people, but sure, we can use a different term. How about objectivist? :)

My leading theory at the moment is that we're going to see some sort of huge societal fissure.

It already seems to be happening - there's a massive ideological split between the group that wants to minimise risk at all cost, and the group that is willing to die to live a normal life.

Actually not that clear cut.

You can get a small STM32 with multiple multiplexed 12bit ADC channels, with ~2MSPS sampling speed and 256x hardware oversampling (~16bit), for less than half a buck (per 1000)[1].

Cheapest independent 12bit ADC with >500kSPS I could find on DigiKey were all over a buck (per 1000)[2], and they were all single-channel parts.

Now keep in mind that the ADC only does ADC, while the STM32G030 has several 16bit hardware timers and other peripherals.

Given that he replied elsewhere in the thread that 2000 accounts went through the deletion process since the announcement, there are actual numbers supporting the idea that it isn’t just a vocal minority. Keep in mind, this is deletions, not opt-outs. The deletion process, as mentioned many times in the previous thread, takes significant lift on the user’s part.
I think there's merit to the argument of 'big corporations can't get things done efficiently' here. I think as you mentioned, for a small scale dev it can be done. I agree, shading could be better across platforms, graphics card manufacturers, even, but that all pales in comparison to a large inefficient corp making grossly over-complex games with staggeringly little added value per hired developer (oh yay another 1mil triangles added to the 100th remake of the same garbage FPS or NFL game, extreme sarcasm).

But outside EA Games e.g., some of the best games I've ever played were written by solo devs in a cross platform engine you may have heard of called Flash. Yeah, not always smooth sailing on Linux, but it worked, pretty well even.
Attempting to sue the overseas manufacturer of your no-name third party AC adapter is pretty much the definition of futility.

I've adjusted, but for the first few weeks of working from home with a single monitor felt like losing a few intelligence points. But I didn't want to give up working on the couch where I could hang out with my kids.
I'd second this. Although from memory (and I didn't re-check this so I might be wrong) Twitter's API has quite strict user limits, in order to prevent third party clients from gaining significant marketshare (and thus spoiling their carefully planned curated feed to raise user engagement, with ads injected throughout).

I think that has proved an issue for "alternative" Twitter apps in the past, or at least did for quite a long time.
The apology is very nice, and I am glad that they are not pushing ahead with this feature. However, actions are what matter.

One thing that was brought up in the comments was that if you wanted to cancel your TripleByte account, you had to email the company. This is a dark pattern.

If TripleByte really wants to show they changed they need to immediately implement a “Delete my account” button that after requiring you to retype in your password for confirmation, immediately deletes your account. Immediately. No waiting period. No having to email anyone.

Implementing that feature in their next sprint would go a long ways toward showing that they are genuinely contrite.
This would be interesting to add. I don't use any JavaScript, so I would have to get the user to set their time zone and the time after which they want to switch.

FWIW I'm an American living in Poland since 2 years ago, though I'm participating only as a spectator and I don't have a political horse in this race. This whole saga seems like a bit of a tempest in a teapot from where I sit.

As of a few days ago, a certain minority political faction is suddenly very interested in high-sounding principles and will talk your ear off about freedom of speech and young-threatened-Democracy with a capital-D etc. Probably there is a lot of this downthread. Without making any claims about this issue itself, I will observe three interesting metacharacteristics of the situation:

0) This same suddenly-principled faction has a long record of happily supporting soft-and-hard censorship whenever it suits their politics and gleefully condemning other people's speech if they don't like it. A nonzero fraction (but of course not all) of the condemnation here comes from the literal Polish Communist Party (and their modern, slightly-rebranded allies), aka the same people who brought us 50 years of totalitarian oppression and censorship-enforced-by-secret-police-abductions. This strikes me as pretty rich.

1) Most ordinary Polish people know about this topic, but many don't find it anywhere near as scandalous as this breathless NYT article would have you believe. As far as I can tell this is not high on the list of pressing political issues for many regular people (despite a domestic Polish and foreign media blitz to the contrary).

2) State media is widely regarded as a running joke, known for its comically-hokey stories such as "Polish citizenry rejoices as Potassium exports rise 12%" (made up example but catches the tone). There are literally a small handful of state-funded radio and TV stations and arguably a semiaffiliated newspaper or two, in varying states of cheesiness. Meanwhile there are gallons and gallons of antigovernment media, most of which is overwhelmingly more competent than the allegedly State-controlled media, with super-slick hollywood production values and content which is precision-engineered to be engaging. In light of this disparity I find claims about "all encompassing State propaganda mind control" to be rather dubious.

The US manufacturing produces things that Europeans can buy, but in some instances US companies can't compete with their heavily subsidized European counterparts.

At some point Trump got angry at us and said "OK no tariffs, but ALSO no subsidies". Obviously Europe didn't agree, and the US put tariffs in place.

All this is logical, I get it that Trump is hyperbolical and extreme, but he's not that crazy.

USB-C is supposed to negotiate a voltage and current that are safe for both ends of the connection as well as for the cable itself. A "shoddy" charger can supply too little power, but it's not going to overcharge a battery.
And for pre USB-C Macs, HyperJuice made 100W batteries with some weird cable hacks to work with MagSafe Mac devices.

Also consider an external battery for your phone when using WiFi Hotspot when outside.

Often, the driving force of such moves is not the founders, but investors: the company accepted a generous investment in past and had to sign a contract where the investor may wind up the company if the returns are low. In other words, it could be that Ammon was given a choice: triple profits by end of year or sell his share.

Regarding your question. Mistakes and apologies are words from the lexicon of normal emotional people. Companies, on the other hand, are soulless profit driven maniacs and their lexicon has words justifiable, plausible and profitable. When a company gives an apology, it's because it deems this combination of words the most efficient way to influence its user base and minimize damage (to profits) just done. People who run companies usually embrace this mindset if they want to get rich.
> Never realized INSTALLHIGH and LH were not documented. I recall using these, so I always assumed they were commonly known.

LH is documented in the MS-DOS 6.22 online help. "HELP LH" brings it up.

(The full name of the command is LOADHIGH, but LH is an acceptable abbreviation. The online help documents the LH abbreviation.)

(INSTALLHIGH by contrast wasn't documented... but LOADHIGH and DEVICEHIGH were. INSTALLHIGH is just putting a LOADHIGH in CONFIG.SYS instead of in AUTOEXEC.BAT)
I'm proud to have been one of them.
I had a similar experience. Started nomading in 2016. The idea of being able to hop from one place to the next sounded amazing. In many ways it was, but it got old quickly. I think the hedonic treadmill accounts for a lot of this. I became completely numb to the experience.

I thought it would improve with "slowmad"-ing...instead of spending weeks places, I'd stay for months. But even then, everything still felt super transient. It's hard to develop relationships when you know that you or your friends will be leaving soon.

With COVID I was forced to settle down and even though the circumstances are horrible, there's solitude in not having to "know" where I'm going next.

I'd argue it's not really DRM, it's more like device identification. Nearly all modern laptop power supplies do this in some way. HP and Lenovo ones use a resistor on the extra pin, while Dell has put a 1-wire memory chip.

The main reason for this is so that different wattage power supplies can be used with the same connector. The laptop determines the power supply type to see if it can safely draw its full load.

USB-C takes this one step further by having a full negotiation process before supplying any of a number of voltage / wattage levels.
Sure. Linear types and borrow checking is possible in Lisp too, but I wouldn't take that as evidence that it's super easy to make Clojure behave like Rust.

What is possible and what is practical are two different things.
> I’m going to de-prioritise trying to understand them—they’re politically no viable.

imho lack of political viability should not be sufficient to not prioritize trying to understand something. For example, I don't think ideologies like Anarchism are politically viable, but do think understanding such ideologies is important to forming a solid base of knowledge upon which to base my actual positions.
It's not a bug, it's due to the trait (aka typeclass) system.

Apparently Haskell has some restrictions that make typeclasses decidable (if -XUndecidableInstances is not set), but Rust has no such mechanism other than numeric iteration limits.
Thank you for the feedback. I wanted to test the waters with a quick web app before building a mobile app.
Very interesting. Can you recommend any other similar projects or any related articles you're aware of so I can learn more about this approach - I'm interesting in exploring it more!

Andy Keep has given many talks on the nanopass compiler, and searching for him on YouTube will give you lots of interesting talks!

Chez, together with the commercial lisps, is among the best dynamic language systems there are. Apart from the unboxed floats me ruined by another sibling posts, it produces really good code.

In my tests it has been ever so slightly faster than sbcl when the code does not depend excessively on spending time in the standard library. SBCL's standard library has had a lot more optimization work done on the individual function level (I'm looking at you, isqrt). Most of the difference in my case can be erased by the new SBCL block optimization though, which chez does on the module level.
Same, I really like this approach. Some of the benefits are:

- better separation of concerns

- better integration with SQL tools (syntax highlighting, autocompletion, etc)

- way easier to run/test/debug your queries into a database client

- better languages analysis of your projects (e.g. % of SQL in your GitHub/GitLab repo)

If anyone interested in applying this approach in your Python projects, I recommend this package: https://github.com/mcfunley/pugsql
I'm not sure the intent of that identification chip is DRM. There are several kinds of power adapter (at least 65W and 90W, though I've been told in another comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23292819 that there's also 130W, 180W and 230W), all using the same plug; that identification chip allows the embedded controller to know how much power it is guaranteed to get from the power supply, and if it's enough to charge the battery.
This is more sensible than people in this thread seem to think. The company emitted a signal about how they reach decisions — you can debate the strength of it but it makes sense to update one's priors accordingly. Hey, path dependence is a bitch.
It was never about security or productivity of the team per se.

It was always to do with HR's concerns about the policy being used as workaround for taking unpaid leave - not saying it is right, just how it is. When you are travelling personally - you are already on leave HR don't care whether work happens or not ( your manager might). If it was official travel then in HR's mind you are not using the policy for as a paid leave so they don't care.
Not an electrical engineer, but I wish this was higher. Seeing the integral completely reframes the problem and the paradox vanishes. The intuition is that charge transfer is a linear system (half goes here, half goes there), but seeing the integral form shows otherwise.

Thanks for the great source!
> SF isn't building more housing as as fast as possible to try to bring the prices down.

If every construction company and contractor in the entire state of CA came to SF and started building apartment buildings as fast as they could, they would still only add enough capacity to prevent rates rising, at best.

No human agency can actually bring the prices down.
But we do need to worry about those people when those people may be a large percentage of the people on the streets. These people are deep into the throws of mental illness, addiction, or both. What do you do to help people who don’t want to help themselves? It’s a very difficult problem and I don’t know if there is an easy solution that doesn’t infringe on people’s rights. You can’t make being homeless illegal and state conservatorship seems dystopian.
>It's actually NOT, AMD, Intel, MS and big media companies are planning to put hardware DRM inside the computer.

That's pretty old news. Things like the AMD PSP or Encrypted Media Extensions (DRM implemented by webbrowsers) exist primarily because media companies strongarm vendors into implementing DRM against their will. Things like HDCP simply do not work if they aren't deeply integrated into the hardware.

Steam is another example of a platform where developers are asking for DRM. The reality is that DRM is optional on Steam [0] but almost no developer is voluntarily disabling DRM. The high profile publishers even add third party DRM to the games because they think what steam does isn't enough!

>The last 23 years of PC gaming we've seen the PC become a closed platform because of STEAM and mmo's, aka any client-server software you buy mean's you no longer own your PC or have any personal privacy because the program is constantly beaming data back to the mothership.
>So no, they are going to turn the PC into locked down platform like mobile where you never see the exe files, they are trying to kill off local applications they want to "end piracy" by literally removing any control you have over your PC.

I'm not sure why you are using Steam as an example because it is a piece of software that wouldn't exist once Microsoft forces every application to be delivered through the Microsoft store. Not only is Steam third party software, it is also a tool that installs even more third party software. This bypasses the entire idea behind only allowing reviewed applications on an app store.

Steam also has another very nice feature that lets you avoid problems associated with Microsoft. It runs on Linux and it even lets you play Windows only games on Linux. Once you switch to Linux all of those problems you are talking about are irrelevant.

Nice apology, that's a lot better than in the original thread. Now there remains an awful lot of dark patterns around the whole cancellation process, as well as a bunch of others besides. If Triplebyte wants to clean this up for real then they should starting now be 100% clean and tackle that as well (and have a good review on the use of further dark patterns in other parts of the site). Otherwise it feels as if the only reason they changed course on this one thing is because it got too much attention, the real proof will be in how they run the company as whole rather than just this 'feature'+ retraction.

There is an interesting documentary narrated by Charles Bukowski called "The Best Hotel on Skid Row" from 1990, you can find it on YouTube.
I didn't downvote, but I reasonably question how much energy is put into looking if employees have a TripleByte page.
