>”Artistry was, at best, secondary to ideological correctness. Cultivating individual talent earned one reproof for “Mozartism” (ever more pejorative “-isms” were always being discovered). Literary critics, who wrote scathing attacks on works that deviated ever so slightly, lorded it over creative talents.”

Don’t deviate from the narrative. I hope we catch ourselves before it’s too late.
I like Dead Space which can run at sixty, but this breaks timings for scripted sequences without a patch. So it’s definitely possible.
I held on to my original SE for as long as I could. I have dozens of screenshots similar to the ones on the article, and I was getting tired of reporting unusable or hard to use apps on small screens.

This was one of the key factors for me to switch to the iPhone 12 Mini. And even though some apps still have issues, they just don't test bellow the regular 12 size.

The worst recurring bug across apps that still happen on the mini is not having enough UI spacing to accommodate scrolling bellow the keyboard. I very often have apps that won't show the "submit" or whatever button to confirm a form.
I don't think a single person who objects to the current parallels to communism would take issue with "holding people in power to account," they just wouldn't characterize the current problem as such. The objection seems to be more along the lines of:

- we disagree with characterizing people as being "in power" in accordance with extremely imprecise identity groups

- we disagree with restructuring liberal society to be instead be focused on reparative justice in accordance with who has most competently argued on behalf of their identity group's victimization within society

- we disagree with constituting consensual economic relationships as abuse of power

- we disagree with the mechanisms by which and degree to which people should be "held to account"
I thought the US printed something like 3 trillion dollars last year. How much do the $1200 cheques add up to? 200-400 billion? And the ultra rich gained 2 trillion in wealth over the same period.

It sure seems like someone gave the rich a big bag of money to me.
Hi -- glad to see you in my subthread! First of all, Saleor's codebase seems a lot closer to modern modularity than the rest of the open source e-commerce system, and so I like it architecturally from a high level. The main wrinkle I've seen, as you mention, is that I'd love to use Saleor in django as an app without having to fork it, which as of when I last looked at it (about 4-5 months ago) still wasn't possible.

This is because what I'm interested in is doing interesting things with the Saleor backend using it as a library not as a server, so to speak. That is to say, I'd like to be able to `pip install saleor` on my existing django backend, plug it into my app, and away I go without too much issue. How far away is Saleor's backend from this right now? Is this doable and it's just a matter of a finite number of steps, or are there deep structural challenges to supporting this sort of use case?

Thanks!
This seems to be a recurring occurrence in Australia. China is the other country to experience this with some regularity.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouse_plagues_in_Australia

Interestingly, Australia was home to another, similar explosion of small mammals with high reproductive rates and no or few natural enemies: The rabbit plagues. This seems however largely to have been contained with the release of several viruses that targets rabbits.

you better hope you get rich enough from the lawsuit to never work in the business again, and as a member of a class action suit that's not going to happen. I'm sure there are many lawyers who would happily target them, but good luck signing up enough claimants to certify.
What about an organization that would build such willpower into people instead of just selecting those which already have it ? Maybe it's possible, and I think it would economize more of the available human resource. A bit like lean management applied to people. It seems to me that self confidence and willpower is a direct result of social confidence. If you know the group is behind you it's simpler to become strong, maybe.

Yes, this is incredibly optimistic.

That said.... what were you expecting? This is Ark. Cathie Wood.. TSLA. Yeah, Yeah, PEs are through the roof and skies are falling. I agree. But, when you click to read Ark's TSLA forecasts, you click for outrageous investment theory. I got what I came for.

Side note... If Ark is really this optimistic about Tesla's business performance... they're very pessimistic about Tesla's "multiples," or the stock market's.

In the bull case for 2025, Tesla EV revenue will grow by 15X. And, high margin "Autonomous Ride-Hail Revenue" will is eclipsing EV production revenue.... presumably growing faster too. Tesla's share price grows by only 8X?! How is that possible? Did I misunderstand something?
Those problems were known before Linux was a thing, which is part of the reasons only root was historically allowed to do a chroot().

Even Unix v7 insists on chroot() being only called by the root user (the chroot syscall is in /usr/sys/sys/sys4.c).

"analyst" covers all entry-level roles. The analysts with total compensation close to the base salary of 50k (e.g. developers) won't work crazy hours. The bankers who do have crazy hours also get bonuses with order of magnitude equal to the base salary.
While this is true, you do yourself no favors by remaining there and "surviving" the dysfunctional work environment. As the old canard goes, your best option is to either "change your job, or change your job."

And I think beyond that, the answer is to try to work hard to change your life circumstances (where you live, how much effort you put into your network, what skills you develop, how often you switch jobs) so that if you do want to make lateral moves within roughly the same role, it's straightforward. This heavily de-risks the possibility of getting stuck with people who aren't great. It might be common, but it's /not/ every team, it's /not/ every company. The labor market is still very favorable for technologists. Using the market momentum to find your way into a healthy team environment at a company with a healthy culture is highly advised!
You're signaling spiritual wealth/enlightenment instead of economic wealth.

This leads to you mimic the surface characteristics of the working class. Old car, old clothes, fashionably unfashionable, hobbies that involve working with your hands, etc. I think this is admirable but I also think that people generally have to go through an immature phase where they buy dumb shit to signal their status before they get to the situation you were raised in.

I don't like the article. It's just bourgeois-bashing and the people who get turned on by that old pastime tend to be somewhat venal themselves.
They still have a very important cocoa industry that employs people. If they cease trade and the chocolate industry does not grow quickly enough then some of those farmers will quit.
There are lawsuits once in a while, but you get risked being blackballed in the industry eternally.
I use it but it’s really weird that there are two disconnected alarm clocks.
That seems like a great leading indicator. For a while I’d follow a few levels of real estate but the activity has seemed pretty strange and not very aligned to many other trends. I think the very large apartment companies using fancy stat models for pricing that update almost daily have moved interestingly too in both directions.
The “I am happy” that I have to click when I open The Guardian is horrible - especially when after reading the news. How mean.
I am weird enough to see an optimalization problem in the video. How many dogs are too many? Obviously, two are better than one, but fifty isn't better than twenty.

Just saying.

Also, the comment saying "that is why dogs like squeaking toys" is spot on, though the idea is probably uncomfortable to regular dog owners.
Wokeness is built on networked flexible leadership (which was not possible before the internet) therefore certainly is not as rigid, centralized, or bureaucratic as CSPU. But OP obviously didn't mean structural similarity. It still values ideological higher truth of social justice over empirical truth, and strives to silence those who don't howl in unison.
How to Scale a Business Quickly
Welcome to nanny state.
It's not taken for granted in "the US" either except for maybe a tiny slice of people in a tiny slice of industry. The number of people who can quit their job on Monday and have their choice of six-figure offers by Friday--as some seem to think any developer who is half-trying can do--is miniscule.
If they intend to maintain an archive of all the demos ever created then I will volunteer one of my old 128Mb USB drives to mirror it.
Seems kind of weird to put these in a dotfile. They’re settings you run once not settings for a terminal session.

I could see putting it in .macos if that was something the system used on boot to setup your system a particular way.
Impressive results!

Personally and totally off topic... what I'd really like to see in a video synthesizer is something that takes my webcam input, detects eye position and pastes googly eyes onto my head.
Having experienced the Amiga and PC demoscenes when they were happening, this is one of those statements that comes as a surprise, but then, after a little consideration, makes perfect sense.

Even when it comes to Win desktop development, Microsoft is fast losing ground to initiatives like Electron [0], especially when it comes to new consumer software. If the trend continues, MS frameworks and libraries will mostly be used by legacy enterprise software (and maybe Photoshop...). Can't say that I'm surprised considering how fractured Microsoft ecosystem of libraries, frameworks, and platforms for development has become.

They also have a major problem with not listening to their very loyal desktop developers, who have to face a reality where Visual Basic is rendered obsoletely, where .net core is a thing - ops no it's not, etc.

I think the size of the penalty is an indication that the scale of the illegal activity relative to the total trading volume on Coinbase was probably minimal.

Considering the description of how this happened (two independent trading bots that sometimes matched one another) it sounds more like a lack of controls rather than any malicious intention to deceive markets. And, at least for now, intent matters in our legal system.
Basically there's a time period where people were growing up with a low level of lead poisoning caused by the burning of leaded gasoline.
To my taste this is totally wrong. Web is web and not desktop. Some web designers try to draw web as a desktop for years and that confuses even more because these two are not the same.

Whatever navigates you to a different page is a hyperlink. Hyperlinks are underlined, blue or purple if already visited. Sounds boring and does not fit your favorite orange-lime color theme, I understand that. But that is also an actual standard users are used to. Desktop application have no similar concept. In Windows (Not sure about Mac) buttons or menus which open other windows should have ellipsis (...) at the end of in their name. For instance "File\Save" does not have one, but "File\Save as..." has one, because opens another window.

All texts in the examples are hyperlinks, but none are underlined and that is confusing in the first place. I do not understand why people do that. I feel like that should be prohibited, or at least considered a very bad practice. None have ellipsis either, if you follow Desktop standards.

Want to know if menu parent is a hyperlink? Easy, it is, if underlined. Period. No confusion.
It does get coverage, often when something terrible happens like an intern committing suicide. But finance has been like this for decades and lots of people are aware of it, it's not news. The games industry crunch-time phenomenon is less well known outside of the software industry.

Also, my impression is that after the EA "wivesgate" thing or whatever it was called, practices at the bigger studios got better. But maybe that's just rumour and speculation. I'd expect long hours at small firms no matter what industry they're in, by the nature of being smaller.
Is the cost of kid gloves out weight the cost of bringing in a new engineer that you don't know their failings at all. The devil you know is manageable, the devil you dont is a gamble. How much upside is in that gamble.

My example of what? I’m not sure what you mean. As far as I can tell my example is that I only use Brew to install software for which the question “which version do I want?” may always be answered with “the latest” or “I don’t care”, so I don’t have an upgrade problem.

Anything I need at a particular version gets installed some other way, unlike how I operate on Linux, where anything I need at a particular version plus a bunch of other stuff all gets installed outside the package manager (talking workstation usage specifically)
I recall this being a topic of interest in social sciences in general. My general impression[0] is that hazing rituals are very important in creating and maintaining group cohesion. The rituals evolve towards being tough enough in terms of pain and self-esteem: enough to filter out people with weak desire to join the group[1], and enough to do some lasting - but not debilitating - damage[2], but not enough to be seen as abusive by the group members[3].

The driver of evolution of these rituals is just group survival: very bad ones will self-destruct a group, good ones let the group be more effective and outcompete less effective rivals[4].

Here are some predictions from this view, which I think all pan out:

- Groups that survived for a long time have such rituals. They evolve towards less tough/abusive if the group isn't in fierce competition. They may ultimately become painless, effortless, make-believe rubber-stamping, but at that point the group is dying.

- When new groups form around some domain, some may go overboard with their rituals - it takes time for groups to self-destruct or be outcompeted.

- Groups overlap, and the demands of supergroup may temper the hazing rituals of subgroups. The most obvious example: the laws of your nation will put a ceiling on what kind of hazing can happen in groups that exist under its jurisdiction.

[0] - Not a social scientist, have no sources to cite, going from memory of all the stuff I read in books and blogs over the last decade of procrastination.

[1] - In cases where joining is voluntary - e.g. a fraternity. Contrast that with tribes, where everyone born to in it is expected to go through a coming-of-age ritual.

[2] - The group wants its members to contribute fully to its goals, so rituals will not threaten that - unless there's a steady stream of candidates that needs to be filtered anyway, in which case surviving the ritual unscathed becomes a filtering criterion. On the other hand, scars - be it physical or emotional - are encouraged, if they're not compromising performance. Such scars serve as a reminder of the commitment, in-group identifier, and (particularly with scars gained post-hazing) can confer social status in the group.

[3] - The goal is to boost group cohesion, so having new members harbor resentment towards the group is counterproductive.

[4] - Note that when talking about market players, the "group" here isn't equivalent to a company. A company is a different intersubjective entity, largely independent from a group of people. In a company, people are fungible. A group can form in a company, or across companies, and can easily move from one company to another, retaining its members and rituals. Groups cycle its members too (e.g. people die, or retire from service, or quit the industry), but it's a different lifecycle.

"but without copyright there will be no writers"

Well, without copyright, writers would find it hard to live off their work, but contemporary copyright has outgrown its usefulness and it wasn't writers who pushed for extensions.

Let us get back to the original 14+14 model, but how, against a determined resistance of entrenched interests?
I only vaguely recall the conversation. I think they were cultural. Tech was more full of people who genuinely bought their own hype, even when it was self-evidently ridiculous. Basically the sort of issues that the show Silicon Valley picked up on. It wasn't anything super serious from a work/life balance perspective. More of the "feel" of the place.

IMO there's an even better design, which is to not hide links in an expandable menu at all.

Just show all the links at once! With appropriate headers and visual hierarchy to provide organization, this is better in pretty much every way: faster to use, easier to implement, and more accessible.

The biggest practical objection I see to this kind of "flat" menu is simply that it's hard to make it look good at the top of a page. But any competent visual designer should be able to manage that, aesthetically.
Even if we assume that protectionism is good in this case, there is actually a flaw in how they enact that protectionism. Ceasing trade with Switzerland can hurt farmers if the domestic industry doesn't grow fast enough. At the same time the entire idea behind ceasing trade with Switzerland is being based on the idea that your are cutting off supply to a competitor. Similar to cutting off oil exports to a nation you are at war with. If Switzerland can find a different country to import cocoa from, this could backfire spectacularly. The real answer would have been to ban imports of processed goods like chocolate. That way you won't get into this weird situation where your country is flooded with cocoa and chocolate that fails to compete against Swiss chocolate.

There are however Arab regions where it is more common to see so-called "Western/Arabic" numerals used instead of the native-Arabic-script numerals. This is the case of Morocco, for instance.
In most large companies the title Principle is the top rung for engineers aside from something like Senior Scientist that requires post doctoral education or something amazing that changes the direction of a company’s technology.

As a principal your primary job is to be an engineering executive. That means making decisions, studying, and advising executives/planners, and directing the path of technology.

As a front end principal you need to find the shortest path to accomplish the business goals with front end technology. The biggest challenge is that junior engineers, especially on the front end, need tremendous hand holding and resist outside a small comfort zone. That is a challenge because as a principal you set technology direction instead of holding people’s hands, which is the job of their managers.

If as a principal you are too aggressive in your pursuit of product quality you will be sidelined and ignored. If you are too lax you won’t offer any value for your high compensation. This where soft skills become important. Set the bar high, communicate the importance of high standards in terms of money, and get buy-in from senior leadership.

> What should I do?

Document where the current product/process sucks and recommend a radical order of magnitude improvement. Write that clearly for stupid people but include strong evidence for your case. Get buy-in from those that are in a position to care about making/saving money. You don’t have to win the support of resistant junior developers if you make a strong business case. Then oversee the successful implementation and be planning the next big challenge.

You are right, 人 (or radical 亻) is a gender neutral term means "Person/People". You can add gender ahead of it to be more specific, for example, Man means 男人 (Male Person), and Woman means 女人 (Female Person). As far as I can tell, there is no default gender for 人.

Learn more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_9

I don't know if the combination (亻+圭) makes it gender specific, but as far as I know, many males also has 佳 in their names. I'd say the character is neutral, as long as the name is not 佳佳 which sounded too cute to be a male.

On the other hand, 蕊 is not gender neutral, because you don't call a man Flower and it's a different "Rui" from the one in my name.
