The psychological term for this is the "curse of knowledge" [1]. This is why you can find the best information from "indie founders", people who are 5-6 steps (not 1000 like Altman) ahead of you and outline their experiences. I've been collecting/summarizing their experiences in a project I currently do on acquisition channels [2] and most of it is WAY more concrete than your-average-TechCrunch-article.

For example, for a company that had success with Google Ads (and they started with it 10 years ago), the founder probably forgot how it's like to be a beginner. When interviewed, they're likely to say more abstract things like "Make sure you have a good user experience". It makes sense, because these things work OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. But your-average-founder simply wants to know what WORKS NOW, what keywords can he bid on, etc. This is where experiences from founders who got started months (rather than years) ago comes useful.

"Back then" was the 60s (whose decade really ran from about 1963 to 1973).

A good quote from Dave Evans (to faculty members who complained about a genius faculty member who could be abrasive): "We don't care if they're prima donnas as long as they can sing".

As I've mentioned in a few other places, including this forum, most people found Edsger to be funny. He obviously enjoyed wielding English for comments, biting, snide, and otherwise. He loved to project snide arrogance in his particular highly developed style.

A good friend of his was Bob Barton -- I think even more of a genius -- and perhaps even more idiosyncratic, pointed and neurotic. Barton was kind of on-stage most of the time, and had truly eloquent extemporaneous opinions.

But so what? Listen to Dave Evans, and then listen to what great and interesting people have to say.

One of the definitions for these people is that whether they are right or wrong, or whether you agree with them or not, what they say is so interesting that it absolutely demands to be thought about.

You can't beat that kind of help for your own thinking processes.

That’s not really the problem we ran into. It was more a problem of layouts that broke completely as things were resized. I.e. they looked good with specific content and at specific sizes, but broke as soon as the text was edited or the page was resized.
I agree with you, Rogan is smart and long format allows more.

The problem is not one Rogan and one show, it's that his style is spreading.

Rogan is smart but lacks general knowledge. Good hosts are very knowledgeable and pretend to know less for the sake of the audience. Rogan can't do that.

Rogan projects sentiments like awe and wonder, but they are not genuine. They are just part of the brand and character.

The end result is that his non-PC stance and alternative viewpoint falls prey to hype, hustlers and pseudointellectuals. He ends up repeating phrases and platitudes and never analyzing them.
The way in which they use each cushion as a separate cell to create structure is reminiscent of plants which get their rigidity from the osmotic pressure that pushes against the cell wall, also known as "turgescence".
> Once you have a codebase in place, things are a whole lot easier. There are far fewer decisions to be made. Really you have little choice in how to do things as the current structure dictates your options.

You still have the choice to extend the current code, or build more code around it.

For example, you have a ticket system and are now tasked to build full-text search for it. You could try to do it within the existing code base, or to add an exteral search engine, sync that data to it, and build a shallow integration between the two.

That said, you are right in that deviating from the current philosophy of the code base is a big risk, and so a big decision to make.
Ok... as a Turkish guy who despises how the people in charge are destroying all the foreign relations I understand your point. But you don't need to exaggerate and say we are at war with all of our neighbors, there is no war, the situation is bad as it is.

The PR form has a bunch of quality-of-life features that would be impossible without JavaScript. The reviewers/assignees/labels pickers are JS-based and fetch data on the fly, the Markdown editor with previews also couldn’t exist with JS. Many of those components appear in other pages, and it’s a no-brainer that GitHub wants to reuse them between pages. GitHub picked a solution for this that is supported (at least partially) by browsers with a total 94% market share [1].

Would it be possible to make a form with all those features and that works (at least with 95% of the features) with your legacy (dead) browser of choice, be it IE6 or Pale Moon? Sure, it would. But to do that, GitHub would need to spend a lot of resources, even though most GitHub users do not need those dead browsers. Those browsers don’t support many modern APIs that web apps need, or that make developers’ lives easier.

Speaking of dead software, Pale Moon dropped support for Windows XP in 2016 [2]. What happened? Why does software drop support for old runtime environments? Because nobody has the time and resources to test things on XP, and to write polyfills for features that XP does not support, or to skip some features because they don’t want XP users to get a worse browser, and because new features can make your software better for the user or more secure.

The world has moved on. Install a modern version of Firefox (or Chrome/ium if you must) and stop complaining.

Turkey military is inside, without permission (thus what we call "invasion") on:

Cyprus, Syria, Lybia, sometimes in Iraq (they claim to be fighting kurds, invade, do their thing, and retreat), Greek waters

Turkey is also seemly helping Azerbaijan attack Armenia

They also are pissing off Egypt, France, Russia, orthodox christians worldwide and some other countries.

The only reason why they are not "at war" is because they are member of NATO, so everyone is waiting Turkey to declare war first, since they don't want USA into their ass.

I once casually mentioned that I wished a day was 25 hours long to my family doctor and he gave me a lecture on how the majority of population does in fact have a sleep cycle of at least 25 hours.

That is, if I go to bed at 23:00, wake up on my own, then I will be able to fall asleep only at midnight. The only "fix" for this drift is to under-sleep each day, but that all but guarantees shitty and groggy first two hours. I really hate this, it's such a nuisance.

The good news is that there is apparently a lot of us who are his way. Yaaay.

The word usage "drug these people" "force their bodies", indicated to me that she hadn't even considered the possibility of just making it available without forcing it, so I thought mentioning how it's usually done would be helpful.
> However, getting to that stage, unless you're packaging a collection of plain files with very simple dependencies, is the hard part.

What do you mean plain files with simple dependencies? A deb file is just a zip that stores metadata and your artifacts exactly where you want then to be in the directory structure you see fit. You specify the packages you depend on in the meditada, zip them up, and that's it.

If you need something fancy you can add shell scripts that are triggered in parts of the installation lifecycle, but those are far from being mandatory.

Hell, if you prefer to follow the lazy way out you can even get build systems to generate your deb files for you. Cmake handles this out-of-the-box.

> Ignoring the weird scaffolding you need just to package a static "hello world" binary

What? That "weird scaffolding" you're referring to is literally the directory you zip with the artifacts in their destination and the metadata! Is it too weird for you to deploy libraries in /use/local/lib before you package them? What are you talking about? You build your static "hello world" binary, you place them in the destination folder, you fill in the metadata to specify dependencies and stuff like your name and email address, and you proceed to zip up the package. Done.

Oh don’t get me wrong, I’ve worked in plenty of bad codebases. One job I walked into and on day one the two other senior devs said “congratulations, your share is these 1M lines of code”. It was a total mess. It was back in the day when coldfusion didn’t have functions and instead you called modules that accessed and updated variables in their parents/grandparents directly. There’s nothing more devilish than code that can touch any other part of system. By the time I left there I understood the domain well enough to rewrite that whole system away. I feel your pain.

I’m talking more about how to start things right so you don’t end up in that place. It’s really hard.

And my point still stands that in your codebase, it’s done. The ship has sailed. There’s some comfort in knowing that you’re just going to have to make the most of the restrictions you’re working within (small comfort, I know).
I think it would probably help, it'd probably require that person to be pretty in touch with their needs (which seems like it could be pretty hard when you're already super frustrated and in pain).

It sounds like your friend was in touch enough to let you know how to help them and it sounds like you really connected that night. I wish people were more candid in general, but maybe people are a bit scared to ask for what they want?
Not sure what is going on with your power button, but if it's outside warranty repair $300 for a replacement device is pretty good.

On my fifth Android handset, I have really not found the incompatibility you point out to be an issue. Sure, some companies, like Samsung, try to offer some exclusive features. Just avoid them.

I have to use an iPhone for work, there are a lot of critical annoyances, like how poorly cursor selection works, and then some apps don't support the space bar cursor. Everyday things like changing settings are so much nicer in Android.

My 3 year old Pixel 2 has been a fantastic daily handset, absolutely no complaints, before that my Note 2 was also excellent, though I was glad to get away from Samsung's attempts at exclusive features (the Pixel is "pure Android", albeit with some self-contained on-device "AI" features that are actually useful).

Although there are a lot of cheap Android devices to choose from that can drag down the brand reputation, I would really push back against the suggestion Androids are exclusively "cheap" in the pejorative sense. Most are Just Fine at least. Apple is generally much more conservative in rolling out features, and offers less configuration options, so I guess it's a safer choice, but if Apple weren't such a status symbol I think most people would be more than happy with the lower cost (3a, 4a) Pixel line.
Java is at a stage where it's clear it will continue to be a popular platform and language for decades to come. It can afford to do "the right thing" because the question it's facing is not how to attract more developers now, but how to avoid mistakes its numerous developers will pay for, and build solid foundations for many years to come. It's a common difference between young and established languages, and, naturally, Java made its own fair share of design mistakes when it was young.

Of course, there are technical differences that make certain design choices easier or harder in different languages. As aardvark179 mentions above, Java doesn't have pointers into the stack, and intermediate FFI frames are extremely rare (also due to the platform's established and large ecosystem).

One thing you fail to mention / acknowledge is that what doctors are not doing is just running through check lists because that's what they are taught, but because they have to rule out a lot of stuff out first. In a lot of cases, the wrong type of medicine or diagnosis can be lethal.

There's another interpretation available: kubernetes is not a mature system, and that's why it's too much work to package properly.

200 library dependencies is not too many for Debian to handle, as long as they don't change very often and the work is useful for other packages. But Kubernetes' dependencies do change often, and there are not enough other Go systems around to spread the work around. This is not a stable system, therefore Debian can't ship it in a stable release.
