It is parochial but probably from a different perspective than your parent intended.

The universe does not actually have universal time. We're stuck on this little ball of rock, so this could actually work for Humans on Earth if they wanted it to. But you couldn't do this if your civilisation is much bigger.

The zones we have now are arbitrary though, imagine if there were twice as many, or half as many, it wouldn't really change anything right?
If someone were to invent a toolbox that could only show the tools you needed, I think they would end up with more money than Apple.
BC you have to maintain the code then. Also, a non-engineering team member can quickly get an integration they need done without waiting for a developer.
> I look back on college, and so many classes seemed like a waste of time. I understand a well rounded education, but so many classes seemed like fluff.

Even though I believe well rounded interests are important, I felt the same way as you when it came to the distribution requirements. For the most part, people took first year courses that were more about rote memorization than depth of understanding because they were easy. Some university departments even offered special courses that watered things down even further.

For the most part, it was a good experience. Things were more lively when a room had a mixture of Science and English/History majors, but that only happened because a few of us were willing to go onto second and third year courses outside of our major. On the other hand, it did feel like it was setting us back relative to those who stuck to the easy course in order to focus upon their major.
I have been playing with lua game development with my kids (not getting too much interest right now - if dad likes the idea there must be something wrong) but the ability to see the code running sounds good - can you point me at any links?
I imagine this works for regex engines like RE2 that don't support backtracking, but would not be possible if supporting more advanced regex features like backtracking?

I definitely have more to learn about automata and FSMs :)
On the other hand people praising Musk &co as if they were done sort of prophets spent way too much time on another very biased part of the internet...
Apple (so far) has been very reliable about letting you give them extra cash for a mostly user-respecting experience, and that's the main reason I buy from them (and has made me happy with my Apple TV purchase)

So as long as these built-in ads on the display can be disabled by disconnecting the thing from the internet, I can live with it. If they ever decide to make them work offline, or start embedding a cell antenna in the TV set, that's when I'll throw a real fit
Python is no Scala when it comes to operator overloading, but it has enough to make parser combinators work cleanly. funcparserlib [1] and Parsita [2] are two such libraries.

For example, this does what you probably expect in Parsita:

real = reg(r'[+-]?\d+\.\d+(e[+-]?\d+)?') | 'nan' | 'inf' > float

(Full disclosure: I wrote Parsita.)

This is why I can’t bring myself to change out my 32”
Samsung dumb TV. Every time I look elsewhere I see products which are worse even if I gain 4K and some more inches.

Please someone just sell a 4K monitor in 43, 50 inch sizes with HDMI that actually works and decent speakers and I’ll buy it for 25% more than the equivalent sized smart tv.
I can’t reply to your comment below this, but the Wayland guys are the X guys, and while they are definitely not infallible, don’t you think it is a bit egoistic to think that they didn’t thought of this one simple little thing that you did, without any knowledge on the inner workings of any display server?

I’m sorry if it sounds harsh, but honestly.
As someone else mentioned, many people substitute pets for children to some extent, and that's gotta be greener because children eventually grow up, take up driving and require separate houses.
I know several young people who started coding by modifying and creating Minecraft mods. The barrier to entry is definitely higher, though.
I don't care much if a state chooses daylight or standard time, I don't want to change zones twice a year.
You seem to be conflating two problems. The fact that many people stay up too late entertaining themselves doesn’t change how people as a whole respond physiologically to the presence and absence of sunlight, or how that ought to factor in to policy decisions.
Looks like there may have been an inflection point for CAD and CNC hardware around 1990 as well that might have informed the sort of iterative process that his team likes to use.
>I would like the sun to rise at seven am every single day

Unfortunately the Earth's orbital mechanics refuse to conform to this whim. The sun may rise for only a few hours at some latitudes, or not at all. Wouldn't it be much better if we all used a universal concept of time and only 'solar noon' plus the duration of day changed as we travel?
> worked long hours

This is interesting to me. Of course from a business perspective you want to prefer developers who are willing to put in big amounts of OT.

But when it comes to judging their productivity, is it really fair to compare them to your devs who don't put in OT? As far as their performance review, maybe sure. As far as their actual skill and effectiveness? It seems unreasonable.

A dev dev who works twice as much as an average dev is not suddenly equivalent to an average dev because the work they are producing is probably not that great.

And you _can_ pay for the article in a way that causes the site to stop serving ads. The Verge is part of Scroll, which is one of the services where you pay a monthly subscription fee to not see ads on their member sites.

Not shilling (I have no affiliation other than being a subscriber), just thought it was relevant to the larger conversation about paying for things and ads.
Actually, I wonder how it compares when you consider 12 hours of fighting the air resistance versus a sub orbital hop covering the same distance in 30 minutes with only a couple minutes of draggy atmospheric flight time.

Also the methane used by Starship could be synthetised possibly used captured CO2 if you had enough power available for that.
Yeah, but time zones are way better than noon = solar noon wherever the shipment is.
Nvidia cards with proprietary drivers are supported under gnome’s and plasma’s wayland implementations.
Have you tried out the Samsung Internet Browser? I ask because it has support for adblockers.
Police raids across Europe after encrypted phone network shut down
Nope because those systems can't be trusted either.
The LG versions of all the apps I've used are much better because it allows for cursor control and I feel it more reliably leads to HDR and 4k content.
It’s beneficial to use the built in apps on the OLEDs as they automatically play a screensaver when they notice content has been paused over a certain period of time. As well, no need to enable HDR etc for whatever device you are using instead of the built in apps.

I just now setup my LG CX to run through NextDNS to block any ads because of this. Took only about five minutes.
How do you explain engineers who are great and motivated while working on less sexy work?
If that app requires more than 1 iOS Dev, they all should have been fired anyway.
You are arguing for security through obscurity?
Worrying about who to blame is a job for lawyers, managers and people with emotional ties to the company.

It distracts from the more important question of, what to do about the fact that Boeing is a dangerously broken "too big to fail" (code for a national firm in Americanese) money pit?

My vote would be to remove the bullshit capitalist figleaf and just nationalize it. This has the advantage of aligning expectations for Americans, who are convinced government can't function competently.

More seriously, left to their own devices, Boeing will continue to shove enormous gobs of money into executive pockets. Make them GS-scale and most of them will leave, clearing the way for an attempt at hiring some competence.
Life is self-replicating energy states. As thus, i would include stable energy phenomena.A https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraterrestrial_vortex could fulfill the requirements for life if it was able to manipulate its environment into producing a re-occurrence aka offspring. So self-replication, aka storing the instructions for re-occurrence into the environment system, is kind of in a flux in extreme cases.
Because it is dishonest it doesn’t try to actually understand why people call things binary in fact in wants to push the opinion that we should throw away the mostly useful concept of sex binarism just because of statistical anomalies and that is simply not an honest way to interpret this as hundred of exceptions don’t really matter in millons of specimens

That would be an extremely hard sell. Look at Bombardier. They built the CS300. Once it started to gain any traction, it was trade bombed by the US government. The CS300 is now the Airbus A220.
Processes use RAM, and a lot of people use a lot of tabs. This isn't to say that each website couldn't have a separate process (and this is true if you browse different websites already), but memory usage isn't something you can just freely ignore even on today's hardware.
I stopped reading at “ some of the best minds in DevRel”
Jesus fucking Christ, not everything is a “DevOps” wording clone.

Edit: Finished the article, good insights. However can we stop the Dev_ and _Ops BS?
Please and thank you.
Who makes these racial justice quotas? You realize Africa is growing faster than developing countries I hope, so the unfortunate consequence would be limiting black and brown people from reproducing. Same with the developing countries polluting more, the first world already went through that dirty industrializing stage but the developing world hasn't yet. Seems pretty dystopian to me.

If you're concerned about racial justice as represented by population, there seems to be a natural effect that more educated, read whiter, populations reproduce less. I'm pretty sure if we sent every black person to Harvard and systematically limited white education, you'd get a lot more white babies and less black ones.
You might be onto something there.
What bloat are you talking about?
Honestly not surprising. I bought a washing machine from LG a year or two ago. At first, I didn't bother even looking into its "connected" features, but recently I came into a spare iPhone that was just gathering dust, so I figured why not give it a shot, maybe there's something useful here.

Holy hell.

The app itself refuses to even attempt to connect to any device, unless granted Location Services permission. WTF? I mean, I expected spyware, I guess I just didn't expect them to be so god damn brazen about it.

After that, it turns out the appliance itself refuses to stay connected to the wifi network unless it can phone home. Needless to say, it ignores both forms of proxy configuration (WPAD and DHCP option) as well. Give it direct Internet, or give it death.
Right. The problem is that Verkada is leaking corporate cameras.
If we got rid of timezones and everyone wakes up at the same time, while it could eliminate jet lag, it also means some people will be going to bed with the noon sun streaming through the windows and it makes an afternoon picnic less fun when you have to use a flashlight to see anything in the dark.
For me at least, it's because the size of both the community and the official team expanded hugely in the last few years. I don't feel like they need or want outside help anymore.
It sure would be nice to live in a world where I don't have to put conscious effort into minimizing the surveillance teams' knowledge of me when I want to sit back and relax, let alone do something interesting. I'm old enough to remember when I wasn't constantly being micro-analyzed - at the time I didn't realize it was a luxurious lifestyle I led, but in retrospect I sure do miss it.

I know this site is full of ultra-capitalists, will you explain to me why I'm wrong for wanting to pay to not be tracked? Also, explain to me why the fruit of my existence is a resource to be harvested vs something I should be compensated for. I'm sure I'll be roasted super hard for this but very strong privacy laws seem to be a good idea - market effects be damned.
It's not bait.

It would only be systematic if the Gov forced it on people. On the other hand, if the social collective moved to dismantle systemic racism by voluntarily choosing to create systems that, over time, rebalance racial populations - that would not be systemic racism.

Rebalancing out white bodies is the opposite of systemic racism.
I really like this article discussed here recently, which breaks down the new front-end work into front-of-front-end and back-of-front-end: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26160538

knowing html is a somewhat nebulous claim, there are so many elements, attributes, and relationships, and the specification is incredibly dense. A design-focused front-end developer may almost exclusively use parts of HTML that a 'back-of-front-end' developer might not even know exist.

I do think you could do back-of-front-end very competently and have only a vague understanding of HTML. However, you'd likely also be interacting strictly with a subset of React.
Never heard of it until today!
Yeah, I was nervous putting that in there, because I think beyond a certain level, long hours start to tell in other ways. Some of the people I'm thinking of were contractors and would take months off at a time when they weren't working super hard. Some of them simply allowed their work to take up an unreasonable portion of their life, which then sometimes had negative effects on health down the road.

I've also seen multiple times when '10x' engineers did a crazy hack working late into the night, which was lauded by managers, but actually had to be entirely rewritten over much longer by less lauded engineers.

Lack of sleep probably impedes coding ability as much as alcohol (and that's another factor I've seen create big chunks of code that needed to be rewritten).
If I comment, I usually at least glance at the article to get a general idea. Most of the I can tell where it is going by skimming it for less than 30 seconds (there's only so much novel information). Many times authors use way too many words so it's rare to read it completely unless it's short or very information dense. However if I'm replying to a comment, I usually do not read the article.
Clickbait avoidance tactic. Entirely valid these days.
I would say - Plants produce their own food and don’t move.

No doubt there are edge cases.

Total chaos. It's a vol game, but you need a lot of time to do it well (and honestly need to know drivers of market volume, which is even harder to do from the outside).
The actual moment isn't what humans decided time would be but where the sun is.
What complexity? I have written both a simple wayland client and server — both are simple lib calls.

Also, how often do you write gui apps without any framework? It is absolutely hidden away in both gtk and qt apps.
You take an instance of the people you want to take with you, and they take an instance of you in return. It won't feel like goodbye.

The author got an OLED, which is why it cost more than your TV.
FlightRadar seems to have airplane model numbers for all airlines plying the skies.
Definitely, and there's nothing wrong with maintaining the status quo if it's working really well as-is. But I think it can be pretty surprising to folks that haven't had an opportunity to play with TS, just how powerful the tooling is. Perhaps one way to break through that bias is to start up a side project and play with it a little.
But they still need a localtime conversion so they can pick up and deliver packages during local business hours.
CF's blog post is terrible because they are saying "hacking our junky outsourced cameras doesn't give you access to anything else" without addressing the risk that all the rest of their stuff may be as junky as the cameras that they completely failed to audit the security of.

The other factor I didn't address in my other comment is: raising kids is absolutely NOT right for everyone! It's really that simple. Societal pressures tell us that success = having a family, but speaking from personal experience, this is absolutely not always true.

> Of course they are some bad apples but that's mostly due environment factors

Breaking out some personal information now: I was raised in an abusive home. I was deprived of a traditional upbringing/education, and have spent most of my adult life learning how to be an adult.

I've also found success, but it's been complicated.

One thing I know for sure: having kids will never be the right thing for me, and that's ok.

Everyone has a different situation, but your commentary does not leave room for the wide spectrum of circumstances that people are dealing with.

> but your kids might do it or their children so you could say children are a good long term investment

Or they might not. To have kids solely for this reason is extremely questionable.
This is probably a rhetorical question, anyway if the feeling of being less welcomed comes from how likely the devs are to accept random or poorly thought-out proposals, I don’t think there’s any problem at all. I say, do not welcome them!
The core Go team is made of extremely competent and professional engineers, and I expect successful language change proposals or pull requests to be on par with that. Otherwise what are we even talking about?
I tried it with the Ender 3 V2 and there is some kind of bandwidth issue that kept it from printing successfully. Exact same gcode worked great from sdcard, failed miserably via octoprint. I’m guessing it has to do with the available ports?
No, the time isn't really what I'm referring to—ip addressing is complicated. But it shouldn't require having to work around the language to do this kind of thing.
I agree with having engineers on calls to foster empathy with customers. Once in a while, each engineer should get on a customer call. Every call, though? I doubt a typical engineering organization can spare the time.

As an engineer myself, I'm usually scoped way down in the weeds of a mass of technical problems. It's an expensive context switch to come all the way up to thinking about broad customer issues, and then get back down. OK to do on occasion, but not regularly.

And besides: Why do customers feel less "heard" without an engineer on the line? Why are all the others on these calls under- or over-committing, unless an engineer is there? It seems like the problem isn't with lack of engineering presence, but with what everyone else in the organization is doing.
I know but he is not actually engaging with the topic in a honest way he is presupposing a lot in the framing of his question like presupposing is consensual when in a lot of cases porn is not not only that but it dismissed the effects of porn on people and society while making us believe that the evil nazis in Parler are there and actually advocating for violence which mostly are not

Nitpick: the correct title of the blog post starts with "netaddr.IP", but the one currently on HN starts with "netaddr.ip".

The former looks like the name of a Go type (which is what it is) and the latter looks like a domain name or something.
At a guess I’d say the displayed numbers are rounded while the bars are rendered using the actual numbers.
This is the conclusion of our 2019 paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1902.05178

Side-channel vulnerabilities are too numerous and too hard to defend against. In the limit, the entire process address space is up for grabs.
I mean you're probably right in the sense that the peak of the Gauß-Distribution is probably shifting to the left.
The absolute numbers are probably a different story. When more people get introduced to coding, more people are getting good and very good at it.

Think about sports. Are there more people that are bad at skiing in Austria compared to the Netherland? Yes (if you don't count the ones who never stood on skies).
Are there more good skiiers in the Netherland compared to Austria? Absolutely not.
Wayland uses libinput by default, which is really great. Though it can be used with X as well, but it may not be as stable
Facebook has something like 26,000 moderators and is being criticized for not having enough. A system that doesn't need so many moderators scales better.
It seems like the percentages are displayed rounded to the nearest int, and the bars show full precision.

People like to think that Adolf Hitler, Mussolini and Joseph Stalin could only be dicators. It's not really like they had no support within their own country and aboard.

School is just so much nonsense. I used to roll my eyes when I heard people say this, thinking it was a trope for rebellious teens - but, there's a huge amount of stuff you learn and do that has no real value and a huge amount you could learn that would be valuable that people don't teach.

Even obvious things like a course on how to cook or do your taxes or any of the things that people actually do in life aren't taught at all. At least they weren't for me. What's the relative utility of any K-12 lesson series compared to a series showing people how to budget or how to prepare affordable and healthy foods?

In reality we kind of expect people to learn everything they need to know outside of school and many things they don't need to know inside school.

This makes re-investment necessary. These rates are actually shrinking for fossils, meaning shareholders don't expect much return on investment from them. They are expensive to get, volatile to trade and as e-cars show, fast to replace when push comes to shove. So everyone is looking for the door- aka the big battery. The moment the light never goes out in some battery lab, it will be a full blown fire-sale.

Arguably ripgrep breaks this rule. :-) Compare `echo foo | rg foo` and `rg foo`. The former will search stdin. The latter will search the current working directory.

In any case, I bring this up, because I've heard from folks that ripgrep changing its output format is "bad practice" and that it should "follow standard Unix conventions and not change the output format." And that's when I bring up `ls`. :-)
