AFAIK the N900 sold great in Germany without any ads. It would have been the third place of smartphones IMHO, especially considering Android was not totally dominant in the public yet then.

I think it could have been sort of the "Thinkpad" of smartphones, used by professionals and geeks.
It's a little bit short-sighted, divulging the exploit makes sure it is known and reduces the chances it happens again in the future
That is - I would if there was a Linux build or usable source code available..

Early days, I get it. If I find a way to run it on Linux will post here.
If I say, my parents new how to put the toast in and press the button: that's "put the cassette in and type the writing on the side of the cassette".

The command line was what you got when you turned the computer on, if you had no idea how to use it you typed words until you typed "work you stupid computer" and it responded "Syntax Error" or "Unknown Command" or something.

>we can look at the things that worked //

It really didn't work. You don't teach people to cook by leaving them in a kitchen until they discover there's a hidden fridge, and a hidden switch for the cooker, and they can cook food rather than eat the prepared food in the fridge, only they haven't found any recipes yet and they're all written in Korean (which I don't know).

Guidance and access to resources is what I needed.
I'd say the main factors that avoid getting stuck in the weeds of opinion vs. opinion are:

- Focus on the outcomes you want to achieve, not the exact thing you're building or the way you're building it. This should be based on the needs of your users. Of course there are exceptions like refactoring tasks, infrastructure improvements, etc.

- Give people a lot of autonomy on how they achieve the desired outcome

- Work together across product, engineering and design so people's opinions are heard early and often

- Ultimately have a "boss" who can stop the endless discussions if it comes to that (doesn't happen often)

Another thing is if you feel like you're iterating quickly, you feel less like stuff is set in stone and that results in less analysis paralysis and less bikeshedding.

I'll share a disturbing anecdote about one of the largest and most influential software companies in the world, based in the Bay Area, and I'll leave it to you to guess which one. I know of several people who work there who are ranked very highly and are paid extremely well, who have told me personally that the work they do there is terrible for the users (i.e. it's exploitative) and terrible for the internet (it interferes with open standards and access). But it also creates profits for the company. The individuals feel that it just pays too well, and for that reason, they could never voice their true feelings inside the company, and neither could their colleagues. It would mean giving up humungous paychecks. Inside the company, it's like the Emperor's New Clothes. Everyone pretends that they are making the world a better place, when they know without a doubt that in fact, they are making the world a worse place. They are not bad people. This company is filled with people who are making that silent tradeoff every single day.

The High Cost of Panic-Moving
As a user, I feel Nintendo has been pretty good about updates: they don't update a lot, and each updates has user facing features with QOL improvements.

It's not in the same situation as iOS updates that were effectively slowing down the devices or Windows Update that don't seem to the user to bring anything.

Hard disagree, Gnome 3 is like i3 except without the legacy cruft.
I don't know why behavior like yours exists. Nobody knows why X is happening but people notice that a potential solution Y is only possible if Z is true. Then someone says Z is wrong and therefore we lost all our agency and ability to solve X.

If this was too difficult to understand then I'll explain it differently. If there are environmental differences between races such as socioeconomic background then you can fix things like educational attainment by improving the socioeconomic background of black people. If there is no environmental difference or solving the environmental difference gives no improved outcomes then this basically means black people are somehow inferior to white people simply based on their race. I don't think that is true. Poor white people suffer from the same things poor black people suffer from so an explanation that is purely based on race is completely insufficient. However you want to deny the socioeconomic differences and blame the differences in ability entirely on race.
> why don't more electric car makers offer something like this?

Because nobody is buying it. Even BMW retired the rex version because it was not popular enough.

> If there is no environmental difference or solving the environmental difference gives no improved outcomes then this basically means black people are somehow inferior to white people simply based on their race.

Or it means perfectly competent black people are excluded simply because they are black; because the white people who gate-keep academic institutions are racist.

Only uuid v3/v5. Anything is possible if that's what you want. But 128 (or 122) bits of random are usually what you want when you think of guid.

Most people format 128-bit random numbers into a UUID just so it's obvious at a glance what it is: a guid. Even if it's not technically a UUIDv4 because it doesn't have the magic bits.
There are RDF schema formats that would tell you these things. Also often the format/ontology/etc. is known informally anyway.

I don't disagree with this principle but I'm not sure it's actually different than physical drugs. While a new drug is still patented the manufacturer is able to price it however they want.

In fact this video game seems to have gone through a reduced scrutiny process and I'm hoping they wouldn't somehow be given any sort of patent for how simple this game appears to be. So if it were actually effective and became popular it might end up being easy for competitors to make a substantially similar "generic" version. That's just pure speculation from me though.

Regardless I feel it's irrelevant for now since the claim that this game could actually help kids with ADHD seems baseless to me.

a lot of people see being "a founder" as a goal because it gives you complete agency in your work.

you could in theory define it as having a sole-proprietorship type lifestyle business.

it's poignant in this thread because many people have worked on "meaningless" projects within a company for years on end - and you don't have a choice.
Sometimes you do not need the vector to be runtime sized, then you can use tuples. In C++ variadic templates make it easy to work with compile time sized collections of objects. I'm sure you could do something similar with rust macros.
The entire industry is broken regarding this fact.

Old tested/working software developed for 10 years, dozen contributors spanning the entire history but with a last commit older than 12 months on github? Dead project. Heck reading on HN I've seen this comment even for projects having commits longer than 6 months!

Share everything on Android project by implement Huawei Share Kit – Part1
I recently found a car parts shop and noticed they link to a abandoned domain that hosted a Piwik (now Matamo) script.

I bought the domain and now every customer was running scripts from my server. Being a good sports I notified them but they didn't react. I even visited them in the shop and they accused me of hacking so I let it be.

After a year I saw them promoting their site (that was still running code from my server) on facebook and I wrote them and they accused me again and threatened me with a lawyer.

Issue only got resolved because I found out a facebook friend of mine knows the owner and he dropped everything after they intervened.

I worte it in detail on my blog (which they also tried to make me take down): https://blog.haschek.at/2019/threat-vector-legacy-static-web...
I agree with you, but I would add that on most software projects it's possible to find a way to derive satisfaction from the work.

Solving problems and writing elegant code is good, whether it's running the next Amazon or streaming intrusive ads to a Smart Toothbrush or whatever. (I'd draw a line at weapons systems, gambling, automated extortion etc - but YMMV.)

Economic value rarely correlates to more 'human' measures of value - which is depressing but nevertheless useful to me as someone whose skills are societally useless but moderately lucrative. I suspect many of us here are in the same boat.

Or from PowerShell: [Guid]::NewGuid()
My manager (a director) at a FAANG used to give me (and only me, justified with my strong background - though he used similar tactics on others) tasks that couldn't be solved and didn't have any business justification so he could keep me from getting promoted. The first few promotion cycles I still tried to find alternatives (X doesn't make sense, but Y would reach similar goals in a reasonable way), but the motives were quite clear.

At first I was looking for ways to move within the company (I was hired in the wrong part of the organization and on the wrong level, making this a bit difficult) and started working with other teams to be able to switch, but I realized it wasn't really worth it because most teams were building things that were very strongly driven by VPs and directors own motives rather than users or even what is good for the business. [1]

My impression was that this is partially driven by several factors:
- the very strong market position means customers don't really have a choice. It's actually rather hard to make good decisions when the market can't give you good signals. Situations would arise where one customer wants something, another wants the opposite and both may have a negative short-term impact on the bottom line. The lack of competition to really verify which decision would be successful gives too much power to the decision maker with really bad incentives, leading to some suboptimal decisions (unless there's a strong long-term strategy that is followed through).
- the drive to make "data driven" decisions, without understanding what that really means. Depending on how the data was presented, completely different conclusions were possible and instead of using common sense with the data, this was treated as an absolute truth to end many discussions. What quite frequently would happen was optimizing towards the wrong metric or underestimating bias.
- Silos created by people who were hired at a different stage of the company. Some of the managers just hadn't grown with the company - people who were around for 10+ years were hired for much smaller revenue und user numbers and this further increased the problems with the two points above. My impression was that the incentives weren't well aligned with overall goals of the specific product.

I think the solution in the article above would be a good way to avoid some of the problems I've encountered, by creating a more direct feedback loop between the product and the sales side and aligning incentives better. I don't think it's the best way how many companies grow with very diverse sets of offerings to have huge sales and engineerings orgs, rather than smaller groups that cover the product end-to-end. It's still possible to have many of the benefits of being a large enterprise (shared talent pool, operational processes, costs etc.), while avoiding the drawbacks.

[1]: I can't share evidence, but this particular company is well known for discontinuing popular services.
I had an eye on this service once in a while from the time it was announced. Now I see that it’s still not open to the public (without an invitation), but I found the pricing information. It’s $99 a year! That’s huge for me for email (I consider Fastmail to be very expensive with its standard plan at $50 a year). There’s no information on if/when custom domain support will come to Hey. I don’t know if it supports aliases and how many are given at what price. I don’t know if it supports standard IMAP. The advertised features look nice, but all those are (obviously) dependent on a web browser or their upcoming apps.

So it’s some stuff that I didn’t know I wanted in email (I do appreciate some of the features), with no information on what I’ve always wanted from email.
It is the same limit for me. The car should be able to go until I am tired driving it, which is around 6 to 8 hours driving at 120km/h, including breaks of 15-20 minutes each 3 hours. Then I can accept a 30-45 minute break to charge if I have to continue.

Starting and stopping does cost energy, but regen is pretty efficient and the lesser wind resistance of slow speeds mostly makes up for it. No, davidwhodge is right, the problem with short trips has to do with the fixed costs of "warming up" the car. Just looking at the energy graph in the car while driving it's easy to see that it's much more efficient after the car has warmed up.

I say, go back to basics - literally. There are still many "games BASIC" languages around. Some are attached to or reproduce retrocomputing environments like QB64, FreeBASIC and BASIC8(plus a plethora of modern BASICs that target old platforms, like Altirra BASIC, BasiEgaXorz, batari Basic), some are pretty modernized like Cerberus X and AOZ Studio. The thing they all have in common is that they get the tooling and deployment challenges out of the way pretty quickly, and they abstract out enough functionality into APIs that you can start doing flashy things quickly.

For writing a GUI app, look to Python and TK or wx. Those are not too awful to get started with(well, TK particularly, wx is cluttered with boilerplate). Or for a form-editor approach, Lazarus - the current open-source successor to the Pascal lineage.

Cool! Can you make a graph quantifying the fixed costs of startup somehow? The startup costs do seem really high, to the point where it's pretty much impossible to hit the rated efficiency unless your trip is longer than 10-20 minutes to amortize the startup costs. I'm glad someone else has noticed this.
