I work in banking in Europe, one of the internet-only ones. We have super rigid governance routines regarding cloud storage. You can’t store a single byte on any cloud service, even incidentally, without a thorough review ensuring that no customer data is present.

Meaning, e.g. there are specific, rigid rules regarding how Postman can be used while developing backend services, to avoid that customer info is inadvertently transmitted during testing.

Of course, it’s a PITA, but it serves its purpose.

You need a “style sized solution to a style sized problem”. As the sibling posters have said, you can use reset stylesheets, or write your own.

At a deeper level, you have to appreciate that browsers are built around the “separation of concerns”:

- html for content

- css for layout, look and feel

- javascript for behaviour

The front-end community has some loud voices at the moment telling us that these are the wrong separations; that the styles for a component go hand-in-hand with their behaviour and semantics. I’m not getting into that debate here. But I do want to say that this newer interpretation of the “concerns” applies to code you write for your application, and is (currently) not how browsers are constructed. It may make more sense for you as a web application developer to structure your code by colocating your layout and behaviour solutions in one file, and in that way you’re more likely to use <div> and <span> over more expressive elements. But that’s not what your users’ browsers are expecting you to do. They’re built around the older separation of concerns. And they’re built to amplify the strengths of the three languages they interpret. So that <div> tells the browser “i want you to treat this content just the same as you treat any other content”, where a <h1> tells the browser “add this content to your document outline, expose it as a section heading to the accessibility tree” as well as reminding it to apply the default styles.

Attack the problem (unwanted styles) at the right level of separation (at the styles level).
On one project we use Databases, with a custom opensourced "adapter" for sqlalchemy models: https://github.com/vinissimus/asyncom

Our cms, is based on Guillotina (https://github.com/plone/guillotina) that uses a Datastore more or less equivalent to the Zodb, and plone, but internally uses postgresql and asyncpg. We are active contributors on it, and since latest version it works around asgi (uvicorn). We also have some plans to make it a bit more psqlidiomatic (get rid of pickles, ....)

On other internal services, we use the raw asyncpg.pool, mostly because part of our bussiness logic it's inside prostgresql, and this doesn't feet super well with an ORM. Think on a 15 year old sql schema, that had evolved through different hands, and right now it's multitenant xD

Latest opensourced thing, it's a work queue based on plgsql, with asyncpg bindings. (https://github.com/vinissimus/jobs/).

So, we can say, we use asynpg in all possible forms.
It is unfortunate that nonexistent alt attribute is treated differently from empty alt attribute on images. I would prefer to add role="presentation" instead.
Not as bad as you think, for an application server anyway. HN actually uses a thread per request according to the docs: https://arclanguage.github.io/ref/srv.html

They also read from disk for most requests. So, thread per request and also reading from disk.

I worked at one company where we had many dozens of services with thrift/spring boot and spawned a request per thread and it worked fairly well. We were collecting and aggregating every review on the internet (for our customers), and had dozens of services... There were a couple in a reactive style. So we took the maintenance cost when we needed to.

The rest of the comment isn't support for the claim that real property isn't like this - instead it assumes you've been shaken awake by the realisation that oh, these aren't toasters or smartphones, they're homes, and thus real property, and so the usual free market hand waving doesn't apply at all.

But if it wasn't clear I'll explain. The reason real property isn't like this ought to be entirely obvious at a very high level, the planet's surface area is independent of economic forces. If we've got twice as much money for smartphones, we can buy twice as many smartphones. But if we've got twice as much money for buying land in Ohio, there is still only the same amount of Ohio, and so the price just goes up.

Does that help?
Some website (Facebook is an example) automatically analyse image to create an alt attribute. But that is far from perfect.

Neither. As in, transfer costs are vastly overstated to laypeople in the interest of profits, and that bites consumers in the form of bandwidth caps among other things.

Note that I never said payment models need to stick to a fixed monthly price. Metered connections (at a small multiple above cost) are an option.

What if the power company cut you off or greatly reduced your electricity after your consumption hit top N% of users? Why should the internet be much different?
Perimiter security is not vouge but its better than publicly accessible on the Internet. I would argue if are not comfortable with security take it off the Internet and put it in a dmz. You still need security, but it's a more forgiving environment if you get it wrong between setup and pen test.

I'm trying it now. Other than making my heart jump out of my chest occasionally I don't really understand what it does. It doesn't seem to actually _do_ anything for or to me. I understand that happens to about 20% of people, so I'm just going to try work my way through the available options to see if anything works.

Used to self-medicate with copious amounts of coke, pepsi and red bull and fast food. Bit of a mixed bag that.

Actually on the subject of secrets and coke, I stole like 200 cans of it from a place that used the honor system. I needed my fix and couldn't stop myself from doing it. Always confused me why I behaved that way and why I couldn't stop. When I got diagnosed a lot of things like that just started to make sense.
I used whichever were cheapest to buy on ebay.
WHich currently were Mellanox ConnectX-3 and HP branded Qlogic cards. Both work without a problem in my homelab.

I do have one server with a built-in Intel card, that is more annoying, so I'd steer away from those in the future. The Intel card did not take all transceivers. They only wanted Cisco branded transceivers (from the ones I had available. I'm gonna guess, Intel ones would be fine too).

Another blind user here. Indeed, modern web technologies and developers are killing my productivity. At first, it started to become increasingly hard to read something with a text browser. For at least half a year, no github wiki rendered in lynx at all. I am not even sure if that is fixed now. So over time, I realized I need a modern browser. These days, I have a dedicated Windows machine for doing things on the web. But it doesnt really help a lot, because even with a modern screen reader and browser, more and more sites are practically unusable.

The more I think of it, the more I realize that Accessibility was always just an accidental byproduct. During the time when graphical displays were not widespread yet, even non-blind people had to deal with text interfaces. So there were many around.
For instance, around 2000 I was reading guitar tablature with my braille display. That worked just fine. These days, if I go and hunt for tablature on the web, all I find are inaccessible graphical things. The only chance I have to find accessible tablature is to go and find a newgroup archive somewhere. This underlines my point, accessibility for the blind is something from the past.
These days, nobody cares about us anymore.
Ask HN: How Modern video conference software can lack push2talk esp. during WFH
I find it pretty strange

For last like 12 years I've been using various VoIP software almost __every__ day to talk with people - 1 on 1 or in groups of made of 5/10/30 and so on

I've used Ventrilo, Mumble, TeamSpeak and nowadays Discord

but it always blows my mind that when I have to use Skype or MS Teams that they lack of this so __core__ feature

It is especially weird during WFH/Covid era where people are working with their families in the background because push-to-talk is basically great feature to allow you work comfortably while being on call with somebody without having to switch windows (alt tab) in order to mute yourself.

Gaming oriented voice software figured this probably like 18 years ago

Skype allows you to mute yourself, but doesn't let you change hotkey, so this is also weird because it's been already figured that e.g "MOUSE3" (Scroll) or other buttons on modern gaming mouses are way more effective to control talking because those particular hotkeys rarely make problems when using other software (web browser, IDE, games and so on)

So, why is that a thing? why would any voice software lack of this option?

Do people who create this kind of software never actually use it?

Or maybe there's other reason - they have never been in theirs 10's and had to use this kind of software to know, that enabling talking by voice is very bad when you're 12 years old sitting with friends on chat and then your parents enter your room :D

My idea was that this would be something provided manually by the users, just like you can specify alt text for images on Twitter right now. I know many wouldn't bother. But at least some would, and it would make using an upside down nickname possible for me again. :)

Photos, illustrations, ... basically always should have an alt-text. a) They are added for a reason for sighted users (e.g. to set atmosphere), a non-sighted user should be able to understand what is intended b) not all screen-reader users are entirely blind - they can see that there is an image and want to know what it is.

Divider lines etc done as images should have an empty alt-text to be skipped.
> I've often wondered how much of my opinion I could chalk up to translation.

Whenever I think about this I'm reminded of a book of Voltaire stories I once read, where the translator's note ended: "...but mostly I've tried to say out of Voltaire's way, for I find that he speaks very good English". It stuck in my mind because I kept thinking how hard it is to imagine an EN↔JP translation with a similar kind of note. I'm no expert but my gut feeling is that the translator's style plays a bigger role for highly dissimilar languages, since "just staying out of the author's way" isn't really an option.

On the other hand, some years ago Murakami did a JP translation of Raymond Chandler's The Long Goodbye. I'd read the original a bunch of times so I was really curious to find out what Murakami would do with it, how different it would be, etc. But everywhere I checked, it seemed to be very much a rote, practically word-for-word translation, to the extent that it seemed flat and overly explanatory to me (as a non-native reader). It felt more like he'd gone to pains not to leave any imprint on it. But of course Murakami isn't mainly a translator, so maybe I'm reading too much into this.

It would be great if people would make more videos about this and spread them around so Americans (I'm one, this is not a put-down) would know more about how life actually is in the rest of the world. (I don't know that much about the rest of the world either and would watch.)

I mean, actual honest comparisons of health care systems, police, judicial system, politics, and so on.

For example, most Americans who don't have friends from other countries might not be aware how absolutely insane the prices for cars are in some countries.

Italy, Spain and Switzerland were hit when nobody even knew what the virus was. By the time politics started to put measures into place, deaths already were starting to pile up. Sweden and other nations had time to prepare some kind of strategy, so I would put that gained time into equation as well. That's why the comparison to the neighbours is more appropriate. Also, their neighbours will have also more similar social patterns - and it's exactly on the social patterns that the whose Swedish strategy was built. What works for Sweden doesn't for others: you can't compare the human interactions in Stockholm with the interactions in Mallorca, so how could you even think to compare their approaches?

Anyway the point is that counting UK, Spain and Italy with the same weight as countries one tenth of their size doesn't make much sense.

If you want to go that way, it's better to look at integrated metrics instead of discarding data points (I only did so because I was lazy and didn't want to look up the data for all the countries with less than a city's woth of inhabitants).

So let's do that:

Sweden's death rate per 1k population is 0.58, whereas the average rate (averaged over population) for western Europe[1] is 0.42. Sweden just isn't doing as good or better than most of western Europe.

For reference, spread among countries is 0.025 (Monaco) to 1.24 (San Marino) with a median of 0.20 for the full list, and 0.028 (Greece) to 0.86 (Belgium) with a median of 0.30 for my restricted one. The median of your list is 0.52.

> Unfortunately the hiring process revolves around trendy frameworks / and tools.

Yeah, this. Sometimes I envy the leetocde way of hiring in the US, since at least that test's your brain and craft and not what frameworks and technologies you used like they do in Europe:

Recruiter: "My client is looking for an experienced dev with Node and AWS experience. What's that, you have 15 years of industry experience but it's all on-prem Java/PHP? Too bad. NEXT!"

Or

"I'm looking to fill a DevOps position for a client and your profile caught my eye. How many years of experience do you have with Linux and Ansible?"

It's sad that in order to get to a technical interview you have to pass the BS recruiter filter consisting of years in X tool/framework instead of skill and domain knowledge.

To those who are downvoting, here's Epic's CEO on consoles:

--- start quotes ---

“The 30 per cent store tax is a high cost in a world where game developers’ 70 per cent must cover all the cost of developing, operating, and supporting their games,” he explains.

“There’s a rationale for this on console where there’s enormous investment in hardware, often sold below cost, and marketing campaigns in broad partnership with publishers. But on open platforms, 30 per cent is disproportionate to the cost of the services these stores perform, such as payment processing, download bandwidth, and customer service.” [1]

"Consoles are unique in that the hardware is sold at or below the cost of manufacturing, and is subsidized by software sales, whereas iOS and Android are insanely profitable for Apple and Google from just hardware sales and ads." [2]

--- end quotes ---

Regardless of your opinion on 30% cuts in AppStore and Play Store, these are some really shoddy arguments.

I recently came to the same conclusion, but also realised that there is a lot more to it than just pay. Generalising here but switching for a similar role in the US will mean:

* No more free healthcare

* Much less PTO

* _Significantly_ less parental leave for you and your partner

* Less pension/401k contributions (typically)

* Generally longer hours and a more intense working culture

* Probably a higher cost of living

Depending on your new salary you may find that these downsides are offset by more cash in hand, which is great, but it is definitely not a one way street.
