I took a look at the demo of the graphing library that is used and it seems there are some performance issues. Does anyone know how these might be fixed?

https://js.cytoscape.org/demos/colajs-graph/
They know exactly what files were customized in the previous OS-base-image. There’s a reason the whitelist is a whitelist, rather than a blacklist. Just guessing here, but it’s probably something to do with “iteration speed” vs. QA SLAs made to large enterprise customers like IBM.

In my hypothetical, there’s a set of preferences overrides Apple have been forced by contract to guarantee they’ll validate during their QA process, and then allow the OS to retain between updates. For any other file not forced by contract, they don’t bother with that QA process (“takes too long!”), and so default-distrust the ABI-stability of the file, and so don’t let the OS retain it between updates.

Adults actually believe that people "earn" money? smh.
How much does canvas cost these days?
Or just a speculative bubble. I can't help being reminded of Tulip mania[1] every time I read about NFTs.

Before GTA online they entertained themselves in other ways. Eventually, they'll move on. The more friction there is to continue playing GTA online, the easier it is for there to be something to pull them away. Rockstar are now competing to be a use of someone's time, not for them to buy the game.
"Predictions" are about the future, not the past.
This is actually very possible - if they allowed people to dip in and dip out, they will. I remember when CP2077 came out on GeForce NOW and the wait times were 30+mins. I'd play a 6 hour session until I was booted off simply to make it worth the wait.
As someone who has experienced pretty rough times (different from the OP), but doing just fine myself, of course luck has a lot to do with it, but why in the world so many people feel so compelled to belittle the accomplishment of OP climbing out and then encouraging others to at least hope for the same?

I’m pretty sure things would be very different today if I didn’t have that hope. Don’t take the hope from people even if it’s a long shot.

For all those reading this who are in a bad place financially or otherwise - YOU CAN DO IT! Do not listen to nay sayers and just do your best (or better yet, do even better - you can never really know your own limits/potential unless you try). It’s not a done deal, but is better than the alternative.
> save up enough money for college

Depends on the college. MIT says to expect to spend ~ $70K/year. $100K * 20 years = 2 million. Two kids * 4 years = $560K. That's a little over 1/4 (before taxes). So yes, it would have been difficult to save up that much money. I have enough to send them both to a public in-state school debt-free, but not an elite private school.
Why Your Promotion and Raise Are Taking Forever
FullStory | Senior Systems Software Engineer (iOS) | Atlanta or REMOTE (US, Canada, or UK) | https://www.fullstory.com/

FullStory for Mobile Apps is an analytics/session replay framework that records the app's draw calls - omitting anything that is potentially private - then allows the sessions to be analyzed and replayed in our web app. It helps our customers narrow down where their users are getting stuck, and what steps reproduce bugs and edge cases.

We're looking for one more engineer with deep knowledge of iOS to help us continue iterating and improving. Our iOS framework is built with Objective-C and Rust, and then we have internal things built with Swift and other languages.

As one of my co-workers put it:

> Work on state-of-the-art recording of iOS apps to provide a rich, privacy-respecting analytics experience. Reverse engineer iOS frameworks to learn how they work and how they can be used efficiently. Use low level capabilities of the Objective-C runtime to solve problems unique to iOS.

The company as a whole is awesome. My favorite job in my ~15 year career. Smart, humble people. A focus on empathy, clarity, and "bionics" (e.g. automation, but more than just that). Competitive pay[1], and solid benefits (Anthem insurance, Vanguard 401k, PTO, etc.) paired with a great work-life balance. And more than just "remote friendly", FullStory strives to be "remote equal". (We were about 20% remote last year, it's more like 80-90% now.) Check out https://bwamp.me/ for one example of that.

Please apply at https://boards.greenhouse.io/fullstory/jobs/4918319002?gh_sr...

We also have quite a few other roles open in IT, Design, Finance, Legal, Marketing, Recruiting, Engineering (Backend: Golang, FullStack: Go + TypeScript, SRE: GCP), Product Management, and Sales. See https://boards.greenhouse.io/fullstory?t=cf0d4d232us for the complete list and https://www.fullstory.com/careers/ for some general info.

I'm one of the engineers on the mobile team - if you have any question, feel free to comment here or email me directly: nathan@[company site].

[1]: I'm not sure what the pay range is for this role, but I'd guess maybe $170-190k, + ~$10-15k/year of equity.
Lead acid batteries can explode though. The one hooked to the backup sump pump in my parents' house had went kaboom when I was a kid, scared the crap out of me (quite literally in this case).
I never was poorish, but thanks to the boyscouts (when I was young) and an NGO I helped that worked with housing in Brazilians slums, I had great in depth exposure to what a poorer life was. And the very first thing to notice is that even if those people live in very modest conditions they still managed to be happy and that is because they had no reference of what a richer life was. Usually their wealth targets were very close to what they had, they were always poor/modest so their reality was that.
The greater problem is when people live the wealthier life and makes the the movement to a poorer situation, something that seems to be happening in the US (I don't live there, so I don't have first hand experience). So people who had a taste of a better, more comfortable life, are suffering because of that.
That is the reason I live well under what my wealth can pay, it is still considered a mid-upper class but I'm avoiding at all costs the "quality of life trap". If were we (my family) are is comfortable, then all the extra money I get will go to savings) investments to allow us to keep this life as long as possible, not on luxury items or a bigger house/car/TV. Speaking to americans, I get that this is not a mindset that they have.

Transaction throughput can easily be increased a hundredfold right now, with a simple increase in block size. As far as I know, this is the plan, once it becomes necessary (for example due to Lightning adoption picking up). It is only out of principle that bitcoin developers have so far chosen to keep the block size limit extremely low (incidentally limiting transaction throughput too).

> Increasing agricultural productivity nowadays doesn't involve encroaching more land.

What are you talking about? 41% of US land is used for livestock production. It's not that efficient, and the perpetual increase in population will just push that higher.

> Combine that with the fact that populations appear to top off at a certain level of prosperity, and you'll realize that we'll be just fine.

We don't all share in that prosperity. Population is still set to grow in the (perpetually) developing world plagued by poverty. The population growth rate in the 1st world is a targeted rate, a matter of policy, which is met by increasing immigration. Fertility rates on the global scale won't drop so long as child mortality and quality of life isn't improve across the board, and consequently the growth rate in the 1st world is also here to stay.
Never Tell Anyone How Much Money You Make
Sorry I may have come across as bashing; this was not my intent. I have nothing against FE work, as I do both myself. I work in a small two-man shop and I have to do a little of everything, including sysadmin stuff, which I don't really like, but it keeps me up to date.

Editing to add, no, I don't work with React. I primarily live in Python, Bash, and PowerShell in a mixed Linux/Windows environment. Starting to do more with IoT for sensors, etc. and this is where things like Python shine.
All the Tesla monitoring makes me nervous in general, however I do feel that Tesla is within their rights to void warranty here. Ideally this would ONLY void the warrant on the battery, and any other affected system. ie, if you ruin your battery this way, but your brakes fail, ideally you could get warranty service.
This is the opposite, the big companies closed their messaging platforms because they wanted to shed low performing departments and consolidate, instead of maintaining them and keep attempting to make them florish which would be a form of diversification.
What worries me most is the patterns of precipitation shifting.

If we saw significant changes to where is wet and where is dry, we’d be scrambling to catch up and the fallout could be pretty large.

Yeah there is definitely some shady stuff going on. NFT appeared on my radar a month ago and now its everywhere. IMO this a bubble being artificially inflated by rich marketers. Also in general, people with wealth have given up on investing in real value business. Its high speculation crypto/stocks/shorts now. Not a good sign for the future when some of those risks fall apart.
Full disclosure: This experience is mostly gathered from a side business run by a small team in a niche market over a decade or so. I am probably a lot more “by the book” in how I like to run my businesses than your average startup founder. My personal experience and views may be atypical.

Adding VAT to bills at local standard rates is only one small aspect of VAT compliance. You also have the actual reporting and remittance processes everywhere they apply. You might have some complications if any special rate applies to your product or service. Then there are the perennial questions of jurisdiction and extra-territorial enforceability, which I will leave to the lawyers and accountants because they make my brain hurt and I just want a definitive answer to what our true obligations are so we can comply with them. The worse part, particularly for a smaller business with no dedicated staff to work on this stuff, is how often the situation changes, sometimes at very short notice, and with no central authority you can monitor or that will notify you when you need to act.

I have spent far too much time over the years updating our systems to get the implementation as close to exactly right as we reasonably can. I have spent even more time just watching things and trying to keep up with what our obligations were. The opportunity cost of that time alone must have been several orders of magnitude greater than the total difference in taxes ever collected and remitted as a result. That was, with hindsight, an absurd way to run the business. Being by-the-book, we should probably have just stopped all sales to the rest of the EU, which has only ever been a relatively small market for us, as soon as they introduced the more onerous VAT rules. (No doubt many businesses instead took a pragmatic view and simply ignored the rules and didn’t comply, and I suspect few of them have suffered significantly for it in practice.)

That is a lesson learned, and it’s not a mistake I will make again. Fortunately, we don’t have to, because there are now several services that will collect payments but also handle sales tax/VAT compliance transparently. Their value proposition appears compelling: we can sell everywhere, be fully compliant, and not be responsible for maintaining the implementation, all at the same time. So these services are where we are looking as we start the new business, and time will tell whether the reality meets expectations. I imagine that if we do settle on one and we are still happy with it after using it for a while, we will start using it for other businesses any of us run as well, and services like Stripe will move to a legacy role and ultimately be phased out entirely.
EDIT 2: As a few folks have pointed out, it is hard to tell based on the article if the warrenty was denied to the entire car, or just the lead acid battery.

So I misread the article at first. This is not a person trying to hook up a power source to the primary Lithium Battery, it is someone hooking up an inverter to a 12v lead acid battery that their Tesla also has.

While I would agree that hooking up an inverter to the primary battery is one thing, voiding the warrenty for hooking up an inverter to the lead acid battery is entirely different, and I would be furious if a dealer tried to void a warrenty on my car based on a $100 car battery. I actually wonder if what they are doing is illegal under the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act.

What likely happened is that the inverter deeply discharged the lead acid battery, tripping the flag in the car. As an FYI, what you can do if you do this occurs is bring it to an auto parts store, they can inspect your battery to tell you if it is still good, (this is usually a free service), recharge your battery (I have often got it for free, but sometimes it's like a 5$ fee), and if the battery isn't old, that will fix it.

EDIT: if you want to read the act, it is here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20130317083941/http://uscode.hou...

But in reading here: https://apb-law.com/understanding-magnuson-moss-act-relates-...

I actually think what Tesla is doing is in fact illegal.
Important to note, this article is talking about moving during the pandemic and it's also relying on people filling out US Postal Service address change forms. I only learned about these forwarding forms recently, so I'm sure I'm not the only one who just moves addresses and doesn't tell the post office.
The point the parent was making was that someone could simply “buy” the NFT from themselves, and nobody would be the wiser. They more or less just transferred $X between their virtual bank accounts, but we can’t tell that apart from an actual sale. It’s not proof that $X actually changed hands.
>Anecdotally, combo washer/dryers are less reliable than separate machines. Maybe because there are more components that could break?

Simply combining the two machines into one unit increases it's chance of failure even without changing the reliability of the washer or dryer.
You don't consider your dryer broken if your washing machine breaks, but you consider your washer/dryer broken if either the washer or dryer function breaks.
> if a problem like this isn't fixed, it's because they've done the calculations and decided it's not worthwhile.

If it ever reached the point where it had to be an item in a priority list, it's already a failure. Some developer should have seen the quadratic behavior and fixed it. It's not the type of thing that should ever even be part of a prioritized backlog. It's a showstopper bug and it's visible for every developer.
It's also why a lot of trucks now display IDLE run hours on the engine in addition to in motion/drive hours.
> Are they to blame

I think we’ve become so afraid of giving the impression of victim-blaming people who are down on their luck that we’re afraid to acknowledge that people can and do work their way into better life circumstances.

Even if we think of luck as the central determinant of a person’s success in life, then we still have to acknowledge that the person’s own choices and actions will pivot their destiny around that luck. Licking in to a dream job through connections and serendipity doesn’t go very far if someone decides not to put in the effort required to succeed at the job, for example.
$100 / month on gas, $200 / month for a car payment, $100 / month for insurance. That's not even accounting for maintenance.
