Yes, git is pretty much the default at tech companies nowadays, although some large companies use more "exotic" source control systems like mercurial.

It's also well supported out of the box by Azure Devops (aka VSO aka TFS) so I would expect to see it in more traditional, non tech companies as well. The idea that it's not enterprise ready is ridiculous.
I have indeed suffered from sinuses. I'll mention it to my physician. Also thanks for your top comment about avoiding life-long resistance -- you've been super helpful all around!

> As a big data engineer, Rust does not provide any advantage to me

I assume that this is meant to imply that Rust doesn't provide advantages in the data engineering space. So I'll add in here -- as a data engineer myself -- that Rust is definitely providing an advantage for me. Combining it with Python (using PyO3 bindings) lets me write performant, safe code that interops with Python in a project for which Scala+Spark isn't feasible. So while Rust may not provide an advantage for you, that doesn't mean it doesn't have a potential niche for data engineering.
Since the developer is here I'd like them to know that, because of subscription fatigue, this is a dealbreaker for me too. (This isn't a critique of the creator or their choice, of course — I want them to be successful!)
Oh very cool. Maybe I should spend some more time looking into those. Thanks for pointing that out!
What is "built-in auth" for a console login or SSH?

Before you come up with an answer involving /etc/shadow and crypt(), consider that not all systems use local password files... and that you've just reinvented what PAM does, except less flexible and more prone to implementation errors.
Glad you asked! We're trying to find good ways to help people investigate this. One of my colleagues wrote up on his work on TypeScript 4.1's `--generateTrace` flag: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Performance-Tra...

That page can give some guidance on diagnosing what the compiler's time is going into. Most users won't need to do this, but there are plenty of bigger teams/organizations that are really invested into TS and do want to keep their build times lean.
From the article:

> Let’s be clear: We understand that we are net beneficiaries of the exceptional work that others have done to make Rust thrive. AWS didn’t start Rust or make it the success that it is today, but we’d like to contribute to its future success.
I agree. I think the GP commit introduced the bug and the fixing commit was https://github.com/linux-pam/linux-pam/commit/30fdfb90d9864b...
I've come to the conclusion that many people just project whatever they want onto these kinds of conversations, positive and negative.

For example, in my comment, I very much said "made it seem" and suggested that maybe people were misunderstanding the poster, not attacking their character.

Many people post many negative things about Rust, including those who are its most fervent advocates. But the gray areas mean there's places where people can post things and some people say "ugh any criticism is downvoted" and others can say "wow this is an absolutely off-topic, baseless criticism" and both will walk away feeling right.
Creating a Terraform Provider for Plausible
There are so many men who employ a strategy of just bombarding every single woman on the platform. This results in women getting dozens to hundreds of extremely low quality matches for every quality match. If this somehow doesn't cause the woman to just give up immediately, then she's at most going to only look at most at a dozen or so of those matches before she gives up, and they're almost all going to all be garbage.

This means that there at best only a 1-10% chance of a woman even seeing a quality message directed at her, given the sheer volume of garbage being directed at them.

It's the same reason why you don't notice the genuinely good deals in the massive amounts of advertisements you're bombarded with every day. The sheer volume of noise just makes the whole system far more useless than you would expect.
I saw that one too. Hilarious.
Granted, a typical Kaggle metagame-that-is-technically-against-the-rules is to use data from outside the dataset, which is one of the reasons winners have to be validated.

You won't ever get condemned thanks to this law (which is useless anyway, because filming policemen and diffusing their identification info to harass them was already illegal[1], like any other kind of harassment).

But, it will allow cops to arrest you. The famous French Lawyer Maitre Eolas gave an juridical explanation on this here https://twitter.com/Maitre_Eolas/status/1328974533768994818) (this is in French unfortunately, and not being well versed in law-related words in English, I cannot translate it :/). But what I said holds: you'll be in jail for up to 48h («garde à vue») without seeing a judge or any possibility of appeal.

> excludes their police ID number from the protection.

Good joke, almost no policemen wear it, even though it's mandatory… [2]

I built an email > print gateway once using procmail and an OpenOffice library that would convert anything into PDF. It worked well, and I could print to it just by sending an attachment of most any document or image kind. It ran on a cron job, and worked really well. The difference? I didn't publish the email address, and there were no flames invovled.
The location is only 15 miles from Moab as the crow flies.

My bet is someone living in Moab wanted to do a desert art project and chose this location that was reasonably close, but still fairly remote.

People do all kinds of stuff out in the desert around Moab.

Just about 10-20 miles northwest of this monolith there's a small slacklining festival called GGBY held in a similarly remote location. Look up Fruit Bowl Highline Area on google maps and check out youtube to see some of the wild stuff people do!
Not the case, we're not keeping any of the email addresses/data. We'll add a note.

You can use dynamic linking with Rust. You just have to stick to the C ABI when interfacing w/ shared objects, because there is no stable Rust-specific ABI.

> 1. To feel smart 2. To justify our paycheck

Finally someone on HN is being honest. It's also a good touch that this is downvoted somewhat while replies getting mad at essentially choice of words (of the title, nonetheless) are on top.

Doing the elegant solution was the first thing I learned in grad school, it was literally a comment a professor made. In undergraduate, you feel smart for working out a long calculation. In grad school and beyond, you should feel smart by doing the least math possible and using intuition. It's not that long calculations aren't necessary, it's just that thinking a little first is important rather than just turning the hard work crank.

I just started banning certain vendors altogether. With TVs it means I usually stick to Sony. It's a compromise because I genuinely like Sony's TVs and it's increasingly harder to find good TVs here that aren't extremely user-hostile re: analytics. It looked like Sony are the lightest offender without going for a dramatically worse TV, they have one ACR toggle but I plan to switch it off and maybe even delete the package via ADB.

My parents insisted on a Xiaomi TV because it's much cheaper, so we agreed on just not connecting it to the internet. I set up a one-off personal hotspot to update it (in case they fixed bugs in the ISP or such), then killed the hotspot. With them it's more of a (irrational?) suspicion in Xiaomi rather than anything proven, e.g.: I wouldn't dare touch Samsung until they stop selling what are essentially data-harvesting ad displays.

Too many things wrong here. Quick thoughts. Hope they help (non-exhaustive):

* This is generic human communications failure, not an engineer/non-engineer comms failure, i.e. you have incompatible communication styles. They like meetings, you like async reports. Do what is necessary to align this in future. Action item: "Hey, guys, I think I'm better able to express this in a report. I'll send you one every day/week/month". Alternative: "Hey, guys, I need continuous blocks of time to work. Can we schedule our sync at the beginning of my day".

* Explicit communication is superior to all else. Requesting ACKs is superior to all else. Action item: Set calendar event to 24 h after weekly report (send on Thursday or Monday), 2 h after daily report, subject: "Ask team if they read report, post abstract in team chat channel"

* Rapid feedback is key in early companies. The rest of your team may believe that the product does not deserve firming up (say the TAM is lower than projected, you're not getting traction, etc.). Assuming "maintainable and certified" may be misunderstanding objectives. Action item: Prioritize understanding where people stand. Default prioritize order: Make it work, make it right, make it good.

In any case, team failure is usually team failure not individual failure. Presumably your friends will provide validation of your self-worth so I have provided no indictment of the rest of your team. Still, it is expected of those with executive authority (your CEO) to communicate these things to you.
At the time of NeXT’s heyday in the early ‘90s, most GUI programming was textual. You’d call add(button) and button.text = “Hello World” to build up your GUI, and have to wire up the events from your button to take specific actions. Quite a lot of GUI programming is still like this, even now.

What NeXT brought was a GUI editor that allowed you to drag a button from a palette and onto a window (or view). You could then change the text on the button by double clicking on it and renaming the default text. You also got to determine where and how large the button was in relation to the rest of the window.

Most GUI builders could do this, so what was special about Interface Builder?

Two things stood out. First, you could specify how the button reacted to window resizing. There was a “springs and struts” layout mechanism that allowed you to say which parts were fixed offsets and which were variable. You could also say if the button would resize, and if so, in the X or Y or both directions.

The second thing was the ability to connect the button to an action. By Ctrl clicking and dragging, you could wire up the default action to a “selector” — in effect, a virtual method call, on the owner of the button. This owner would be populated at startup, typically the application (controller). So you could have your code with the responder and another team build the UI, and they would join together at runtime.

You could also use properties generated by code as well - you could connect the button’s field to an object’s property (aka an outlet) so that changing the code changed the UI.

The fact that you could drag and drop connections from UI to code, and from code to UI, as well as building a responsive UI, was really what stood out.

This still lives on in Xcode today; IB and PB begat Xcode and IB which begat Xcode. The “nib” format - Next Interface Builder - was a binary format file containing the descriptive state of the Ui and the wiring requirements, which was renamed “xib” when XML became all the rage is the same thing. The fact that IB has been subsumed into Xcode still hides the fact that is what’s happening under the covers.

I think it’s important to realise that this was in an age when Windows 3.1 was all the rage, and we had only just got out of 256 colour VGA while Next station had 16 million.

Nowadays with everyone doing MVC programming with the web, it doesn’t seem so important. But then there was a time when no one wrote unit tests because it was seen as pointless; but it is from these seeds that ideas become mainstream.

I don't think Java ever left. It's still used everywhere I've worked in the past 15 years, usually quite extensively. Just because it's not the hot language to talk about on HN it's still out there and quite healthy. Personally I'd been hoping that c# and it's kin would take all of Java's core business, but it really hasn't
If you simultaneously got rid of all the deductions, loopholes, etc and made it a true flat tax on all income, then it might work out that the effective rate of a flat tax policy could be more progressive than the results of our "progressive" tax policy.

I would be interested in seeing what values of ax+b (a being the rate and b being the standard [+ perhaps only] deduction) would work out to be income neutral to our current convoluted algorithm.

Yeah, sorry about that Steve. That was crass. I appreciate you sharing some thoughts here.

With respect to people's experiences, there are a lot more developers than developer/salesmen. The latter are more passionate by necessity, so I think there's a healthy band of feedback from those consuming the language maybe for work or hobby projects.

Yes, it's long been known in scurrilous "manosphere" sections of the internet that "80% of the women go for 20% of the men" on dating apps (the 80/20 rule is an oft-quoted one but intended probably more as illustrative than researched).

It's an unpleasant and politically incorrect idea that despite clearly being the experience of most normal men you talk to about these things, is probably career-damaging to academics who would research it honestly so you see it backed up in that regard either by amateur blogs or very cautiously worded "respectable" research.

Think of harems in the old days and alpha males in some species in the animal kingdom.

Tinder and the like (so the theory goes) apply a massive magnifier affect to the natural tendency of "elite" men to clear up.

Side note: the tactics of average men mentioned elsewhere in these comments such as swiping on everything, and similar techniques are effects of this phenomenon, not the cause.
To me this seems to highlight the worry about "fake news" and "credible sources". To me it seems less like the quality of journalism and reporting has gone down hill and more like because we have so many new independent sources of news and information we are starting to realize that the originally "trusted" organizations were not as objective and honest as we originally thought.

Ultimately the problem is that it isn't that we have illegitimate news flooding the market of information it's that we are finally starting to realize almost all of our information was biased to one degree or another and we are slow to adjust the way we consume information.

I'm in this boat. I can structure and do layouty things, I just don't have a taste for design. This is where component libraries help out a lot.
That's true, but you don't need to bury the whole tree. You can fell the tree, gassify it, and get a steady stream of fuel and pure carbon. The process is exothermic and produces enough energy to be self sustaining and produce excess fuel.

Bury the carbon and use the gas to produce energy and you have a forest that is a net reducer of carbon and a net positive energy producer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia%E2%80%93East_Timor_s...

Australia and East Timor negotiated a treaty to divide up oil and gas in the sea between the two countries. Australia bugged the East Timorese government offices to get an unfair advantage in the negotiations.

The East Timorese government found about this, and then sued Australia in the Permanent Court of Arbitration to have the treaty invalidated.

An Australian intelligence agent (''Witness K''), who knew about the bugging, contacted East Timor's lawyer – Australian Bernard Collaery – offering to testify for East Timor.

The Australian government responded by cancelling Witness K's passport to stop him from testifying, raiding the offices of East Timor's lawyer, and now both of them are on trial – in secret.
Small clarification — Rust very deliberately does not do OO. It has features that look sort of like OO from a syntactic standpoint, but being object oriented is not a design goal for Rust.

Has AMA been plumped up by mainstream journalists? I can’t recall them being quoted as an authority.
I recently did an extensive test of many, many HTML templates.

The key thing I looked for was when the templates had been created and how often/how recently it had been updated - sites like Envato are loaded to the brim with old no-longer-updated templates.

I tested by loading them on the iPhone 6.

In almost every single case, the layout instantly broke, OR the side menu didn't work, OR the side menu felt "sticky" and would not smooth scroll, OR sliding the side menu scrolled the underlying page as well.

That was 90% of the templates or more - the quality level in general is terrible.

The ones we chose were from https://bootlab.io/themes - very nice quality.

I'll add a case for Louisville, KY. Extremely low cost of living compared to the Bay Area. Not as tech-focused as you might like, but still a healthy amount of tech (especially in Healthcare and Health Insurance, which will likely remain perennial). What it lacks in tech-centrism, it gains in a balanced economy with a strong mix of every collared job. Certainly has its plaid/hippy/hipster/Alanis Morissette sides to it as well. It's an extremely foody city, operating as it does as a central hub of sorts for a number of regions of cuisine, and at times has been favorably compared to LA or NYC in terms of high ranking restaurants per capita, yet obviously at a substantial COL discount.

Kentucky could use all the help it can get to reverse its brain drain out to the coasts, and now is a great time, with so many more remote work opportunities and the overall reevaluation of COL in a time of a pandemic, to try to fix that. (It's the only way to combat nonsense like the terrible mess of what Kentucky keeps sending to the US Senate, by adding more smart people and counteracting the brain drain.)

It's not going to be on a lot of folks' radars, but Louisville, KY is a great big city that still feels like a small town in the right ways. But you don't have to take my word for it, I'm sure the chamber of commerce would love to pamphlet you to death and has better marketing copy than what I would right extemporaneously.
Theres actually still money to be made in small scale strategies. Sophisticated funds are running billions. They cant focus on strategies that only work for 100-500k. This is where big returns can be made. Even warren buffet will say, if he was only managing 1 million, he would get 100% a year returns.
