My gripe with this is that the author assumes everyone has the same workload and prefers the same set of tradeoffs. I use raidz1 on my home desktop precisely because I would absolutely prefer to have to wait for a resilver than lose data.

“So backup your data!” - of course, but that’s just an implicitly larger pool.
Ingredients lists are not copyrightable. The text and photos around them can be (as in a recipe book or blog).

“A mere listing of ingredients is not protected under copyright law. However, where a recipe or formula is accompanied by substantial literary expression in the form of an explanation or directions, or when there is a collection of recipes as in a cookbook, there may be a basis for copyright protection.”

Show HN: I built a website to see what's the best ppl can draw with simple tools
They aren't easily broken - they can be broken by tools which would stop working if the underlying vulnerabilities would get detected and fixed, so the availability (and thus usage) of these tools is quite restricted.

E.g. many of law enforcement agencies can break encryption on modern phones by shipping the phone to someone like Cellebrite and paying a hefty fee per device, but they can't do it themselves, and often can't buy the capability to do it themselves (they don't get trusted not to leak the tools somehow and kill the goose that lays the golden eggs so to say) and thus can't do it on a large scale.

There almost certainly are some intelligence or LE agencies in the world that have such a capability in-house, but it's a quite high bar, and I believe that most countries and most agencies in a decentralized policing environment like USA don't have such tools available to themselves - they could have the connections to get it done for some specific devices by one of the very few actors who can do it, but that's not what "easily broken" would mean.
Some of us who care have to use Windows at work. Instead of paying us more, our companies spend obscene sums on inferior software because that's what everyone else does.
Interesting concept and I love that it’s a pwa. Nicely done

Tech salaries in the lowest wage areas in the US are comparable to western Europe. Wages in any major US metropolitan area are higher on average.

> Almost every second startup I read about in https://www.eu-startups.com/ is a fintech/budgeting app

These kind of startup focused news sites are quite biased towards B2C/C2C software/*tech places, as most of their businesses need the public attention to succeed. Most B2B startups don't care much about outreach to these outlets, as most of their clients don't read it.
Management PSA:
If you're writing a REALLY long Slack message to your employees, do it in Notes or a Google Doc and cut and paste it in when you are done.

Critical data for the average user typically does not require much space, so the cost of storage overhead in a mirrored ZFS pool is not too bad.

RAIDZ is much more cost efficient when you need to reliably store large content that isn’t really critical. As you’ve noted, media is one good example of this.

In my case, I’m using a RAIDZ1 vdev of 3 disks, with the understanding that things could go south during a resilver.

In my anecdotal experience 60k is typical for developers with 5 years of experience in larger cities, but often you do need to get into management to reach 80k.

I think it’s also getting better as all employers need to compete on salaries with remote offers from companies in Paris.

I’ll admit it though, if it was not for the ludicrous immigration laws I’d have probably moved to the Bay Area a long time ago.

The papers I've read use virus growth in cells, and even electron microscopy. I don't even know how you managed to claim now that only PCR is used in all the relevant papers.

It's no use for me even trying to discuss with you when your "reading" ends with recognizing that some paper mentions "PCR" and then claiming you're right in general, and all the epidemiologists and virologists aren't.

Anyway, AstraZeneca study just came out, and apparently even when the vaccine efficacy was 90%, the number of asymptomatic cases in the group where that was also measured dropped only 27% percent, which suggest again that the societies can't depend on vaccine providing sterilizing immunity -- it still appears that the vaccinated will be able to transmit the virus, just like the materials that I've referred to suggested.

That's why the UK starts with vaccinating first the most vulnerable, they know it's about protecting from illness, not about making the vaccinated impossible to transmit, as it's covered in many news in the UK -- the expectation is that, at the end, the immunity of population will only be reached once everybody is vaccinated. You can claim that nobody but you gets it, and that your "theory" is better than what's observed in many papers, but it's also a certain symptom.
VCs are looking for firms who can build "moats", i.e. commercial positions within markets that have built-in advantages against potential competitors. Sometimes this is some technological feat that is difficult to match, like Uber have been promising. Other times this is unethical business practices, like paying employees less than minimum wage. Such moats may not last very long, but the concept appeals to VCs.

The phrase "war of capital attrition", however, will send capable VCs running for the exits. If they liked that sort of thing they would have been bankers.
This stuff is dead slow even on a fast machine with fast connections.

The problem isn't people don't know. The problem is the software is drowning in layers of complexity and abstraction, and it's all in JavaScript not an optimized native language.

The USPS already scans the exterior of every letter they deliver (perhaps a result of the 2001 anthrax attacks?). They let you see the scans online. You don't have to "speculate" about losing mail.

I think its fine at enterprise scale... has anyone experienced AWS console at enterprise scale? in 2015-17 it was awful.
Honestly, I've never found story pointing exercises to result in anything resembling reality. Maybe if it's a task you've already done a hundred times and everyone knows "oh it's just doing that ...". Anytime you move into creating something new, you're basically hosed. Especially if you have heterogeneous work streams in the same sprint. That just any hope of planning things that much harder.
> That's what the web is today

Are you suggesting that the web is the way it is today because benevolent governments dictated it be so? Do you have any links about this?
Yeah that's the main reason for Press It plugin. You can create a bookmarklet that should work in the most browsers. I use it in Chrome, it also grabs page title and some content from the page and prefills it.

Also I use this instance of WordPress like a scrapbook and dump all kind of information in there. While reading books on phone or iPad, I can add quotes from them. Android app is pretty good for this. Also I take photo notes for example while shopping for something in a physical store, I can add pictures of them to a post etc and then review later. Once a month or so, I download backup.
It's an O365 thing, it has nothing to do with Windows. It also depends on a few things with the subscription and settings, so everyone won't get it automatically and if you do it's easy* to turn off.

There was a time when I made a point of only installing from source code, and never even using package managers. Although, of course, it wasn't possible to read through all of the source code and make sure that it wasn't doing anything malicious, this felt safer to me. I eventually had to give up, though, because troubleshooting a failed install from source is damned near impossible, and all the documentation you can find on anything assumes that you're using package managers to install everything.
I then tell a real horror-story about my past, not so long ago there was a EVA (A SAN from HP) with a freaking out hardware Raid out of nowhere (uptime about 200 days no Firmware update before nothing) it just started to freak out, the story goes on but the lesson...No more HW-Raid/proprietary stuff for me EVER again.

Cloud service providers aren't really optimizing for the same thing that the average website is optimizing for. They're attempting to maximize their velocity, maximize their API stability, and make programmatic usage of their system as easy as possible.

GCP's UI? Yea it's pretty bad. GCP's terraform provider? It's really slick. Probably the best one of the bunch (Azure, AWS, Oracle, OVH, ...).
>I’ll admit it though, if it was not for the ludicrous immigration laws I’d have probably moved to the Bay Area a long time ago.

That's kind of a catch-22 right there.

If it weren't for those "ludicrous immigration laws", tech salaries in the Bay Area would get watered down significantly while becoming even more expensive to live in, making the whole place less attractive to emigrate to over time, eventually reaching a state of equilibrium with wages probably close to EU level.

Think of it like a fancy nightclub. The more exclusive it is, the more people are willing to queue outside for hours for a chance to get in.
An interesting take on the impact of this change:

Your proof is typing 'propaganda on tiktok' into google?

Have you typed 'propaganda on hackernews' or on facebook/twitter/reddit or any other social media?

Everything in the world is going to have some form of propaganda to some degree. And honestly, having used tiktok a small amount, it seems way less than most social media out here. You generally have to even work hard to find anything that is political, most of it is completely random shit that has zero agenda.
Chromium is esoteric? And what does an “esoteric” DE have to do with whether a webpage renders well at a given viewport size?
The "remember your username" usually means persisting a user ID in the cookie session, and the core banking backend does not know shit about cookies or front-end users, the request needs to be mediated and properly authenticated in a way that is compliant with security regulations.

You could conceivably pre-render the backend results before hand but then on first load the visiting user would not see her latest transactions --which is a very frequent use case.

As a side note, it's amazing how modern banking sites keep being really fancy interfaces to years old COBOL backends.
Really though? What are you looking for in this inspection?

This strikes me as one of those things where the “inspectors” underestimate the security of “curl|bash from a known HTTPS origin” and overestimate their ability to detect anything that could evade that security. At that point you’re dealing with a g0d level hacker, or your cert trust has been broken, and in either of those cases you were already pwned.
>My understanding is, that CentOS will be exactly in the middle ground between Fedora and Red Hat.

Not "exactly the middle ground", so much as

Fedora ---------------------------------------->> CentOS Stream -->> RHEL

At any given time CentOS Stream is only a couple months ahead of RHEL, that is not remotely true for Fedora.
Change is scary.
The regulator wouldn't have to do anything more invasive than say, "Microsoft will charge its development cost or greater for any additional features that are currently offered commercially".

Yes, that would create some accounting overhead. But it's a small price to pay to keep Godzilla from eating the villagers' livestock.
I've been using ZFS for a few years now and it's just been amazing. Storage is so cheap these days that it's just much simpler and straight-forward to use mirrored vdevs. If a single drive fails, the pool is still completely usable, and all I have to do is swap out the bad drive (when I get around to it, no hurry usually) and resilver. Resilvering can take a while, but everything is still completely usable while it's happening so it just runs in the background and I don't even notice.

I just upgraded a pool of 4 drives from 4TB each to 10TB - I'd never done anything like that before and was rather nervous, but it was just so simple with the mirrored set up - just swap out each drive and resilver one- by-one.
Honestly, in most cases, if it’s really that long it shouldn’t be shared as a Slack message in the first place.
Unless your Apple product has a T2 chip. If it does, there's not protecting it other than don't let it physically fall into someone else's hands. The T2 debacle is probably the single greatest let down for me in Apple products. There have been plenty of things I bitch and moan about, but nothing has been as compromising as the T2 failure.

Counterpoint: diversifying with Uber Eats did a lot to keep the company stable during the ongoing pandemic.

Admittedly, Eats doesn't make a dime, even after this big influx of business, so I'm mostly leaning on the argument that it helped stabilize shareholder confidence. Still... stocks would be lower today if they sold off Eats prior to the pandemic!

I think the more nuanced argument is that you should do one core thing well, then leverage that one thing to offer a portfolio of diverse services.

Cloud SSH has been broken for months https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/57957 - no movement despite reporting it via the official channels too.

This is one of the first features a new GCE user is likely to use (if they're exploring the UI and haven't yet started using the CLI) - and it's broken out of the box. Amazing.

It's amateur hour over there when it comes to frontend development - it's not a web app where cross-platform/cross-browser testing takes place, it's a Chrome app.
I personally would love to see a frontend architecture that more closely resembles the backend: dataflow execution.
It's been researched in the 80s/90s, with some hybrids popping up in literature from time to time (TRIPS, ADAM, etc)

Counterpoint: processors have gotten so good at extracting ILP from a sequential ISA that I wonder how much benefit you would gain from a dataflow ISA. The downside is that it would require to completely rethink and redo the software stack. (efficient par to seq is just as hard as efficient seq to par)

I’ve always wondered about this. Say you get the recipe and translate it using ML to another language but with fuzzy logic so it’s not identical to the original. And has added or missing text or parts of text.

Would that be breach of copyright? Do you hold the copyright over the new content? Can you claim the original was just inspiration and there are enough differences between the two items?

Trout Fishing in America. Brautigan uses his madness for good. An aspiration for my own.
There can be some more nuance to this. The devs can often see the problems, but know more optimization is needed. They've done everything to implement what a PM asked.

When the PM views it with ideal network conditions they assume it's more than ready. At this point their focus is on shipping sooner so the next thing can be worked on. The devs can never talk them back. Users then complain on Twitter about the crappy perf.

This is a process and cultural failure too. The perf can be quantified and tracked to some extent. Even proxy metrics like the growth of assets over time can help.

Cultural events like poor handling of weekly demo days can create undue pressure on shipping poor implementations. Someone implements a great idea badly, it catches management attention (or helps the sales team), and next Monday it gets released. Over time this behavior can hurt customers and it always frustrates internal efforts to do the right things for perf.
I have someone like this on my team. The guy is a really good engineer and consultant, he is unorganized as hell and takes forever to log his billable time in the system. This causes billing problems regularly, requiring multiple hours of manual correction by myself (his manager) and has also resulted in clients receiving inaccurate invoices.

I haven't been able to figure out how to handle it. I really don't want to have to micromanage him, because I feel like that would cut into his confidence. But he's also pretty terrible when it comes to an important aspect of the job.
Yeah true, in my Home-server i have one mirror (2 disks for OS/Swap etc) and one RaidZ1 (5 Disks for data), for me it's just important that i have no bit-rot etc. Daily backups (restic) are made so no problem whatsoever.
This is huge! Respect Captain ! Also the website looks cool.
