Call me cynical, but most non-profits seem to be more interested in paying salaries and fundraising than in the actual thing they're supposed to be "about".

And public institutions may serve a useful function, but again seem to be mostly about civil service powerbroking and providing extremely safe employment.
I am guessing you are seeing the parallel because both sentences have the words "have to hire" in them?

Companies need to hire lawyers because we live in a society that places a high value on playing by the rules and regulations that come down (idealistically) from an elected body.

So if I am a company that "has to" hire lawyers and accountants, I only "have to" do so because there are rules in my country about how I (for example) represent my financial situation to unsophisticated investors so they don't lose their shirts.

You can see how that's a different form of "have to" from hiring someone's uncle so your business doesn't get closed by the corrupt government?

@toolz Speaking as someone who works on cars at a build level a lot I'm highly aware many motorsports are healthily cross cultural. I normally avoid discussion of gender, sexuality and race but in this case the overly vague Sacramento County law could be ignored on one street and strictly enforced on the next. You then get into zoning and class issues which are going to unfairly penalize certain people.

It's useful law to stop irresponsible people who are running engines and impact wrenches all day in a residential neighborhood but legally is a dangerous catch all that could ruin a lot of people's car hobbyist lives
I have three monitors, and recently started using multiple desktops. I can hit Meta+{1,2,3,4} to go between them or Meta+Tab on KDE. It's amazing.

If my main desktop has tons of windows open, and the panel is crowded as heck with browser, file manager, text editor, and terminal windows (all of which can occupy all of your monitors when you're doing a given thing because there's that many of them), it's overwhelming. It's like browser tabs piling up out of control, except the tabs are also windows you have to maximize and minimize. Dedicating multiple desktop to multiple task (main, tinkering, work, etc.) is so much better.

I don’t personally use Launchpad but I can definitely imagine it’s useful for some. While it obviously took its design from iOS, it’s also a throwback to At Ease[1], which I definitely saw used widely when it was available.

And I no longer use Mission Control/Expose, but I certainly did find it useful on smaller screens (I now use a comically large 43” 4k@1x).

Same with multiple desktops, and I’ve seen it used on nearly every screenshare I’ve been on this past year.

My workflow now is probably more fussy than it could be, but I pretty much just use cmd-~ and cmd-` now.

Edit to add: I think it also depends quite a bit on input device. Seeing others mention trackpad gestures, I remember finding Mission Control/multiple desktops much more useful when I primarily used my MBP on my lap.

Very unique concept, which will sure revolutionised the digital platform for any type of transactions. Keep it up.
I said they are directly related, not that they are equivalent. The entire reason programmers have the notion of time complexity is to understand how algorithm's execution scales. The reason we drop constants and constant scale factors is because they typically don't make a big difference in real world execution times. That's a little more than tangentially related.

Saying time complexity has nothing to do with hardware is like saying speed limits have nothing to do with cars. Hardware constraints are the entire reason we developed the notion of time complexity.

I'm honestly very confused as to how someone (I assume is) engaged in programming could think the relationship is tangential.

Yes I'm being cynical but why else hire someone with such a history for a social media company?
Sorry to be so cynic, but why do you assume good faith on the part of Reddit? It's a free product, you are not paying for it, they don't owe you a damn thing. If they don't care about their reputation, they can do whatever they want with your comments, including changing them or deleting them.

This is the problem of free stuff, you have no leverage and little to no value to the company as a single user, and if you are the kind of problematic user such as the ones in The Donal, you have negative value because you scare away the ads and ruin the companies reputation, so they actually have a very powerful incentive to push you away and make you leave the site.
It's not. Most of our problems are caused by wealth inequality, racism, and amoral politicians.
>I just use multiple monitors with everything I need on them in the same workspace.

Well, many of us use a single monitor or a laptop to get work done. Thus multiple workspaces make more sense.

Virual workspaces have been in Unix/Linux/X-Windows since the 90s (or even before) anyway.

>Do you guys actually use these features? I find the contextual switching distracting.

Yep.

Why would it be more distracting than looking to another monitor (and thus having to physically turn your gaze/neck as opposed to a single keyboard shortcut)?

For me, the purpose of multiple desktops is to reduce distration. Instead of many things visible to you all the time (in one or more monitors) and competing for your attention, you can have several things open, but only focus to one at a time, separate them by work, or program type, or workflow step, etc.

That why we read and learn. You can't expect node to work like java. I feel like I'm talking to a wall with you guys. I've been working with JS for 15 years. I would never presume to start Java dev and expect to do things my way. I saw the same thing when Java devs were trying to learn Ruby... you have to approach with a different mentality.

Regarding Moment, on their site and they plaster exactly why you should not use moment and explain exactly why other libs (Day.js included) are better. Node is designed to be modular, Java isn't.
Agreed, TSMC 3nm is slated for full-production next year (2022) but risk production is end of this year.
https://www.anandtech.com/show/16024/tsmc-details-3nm-proces...

It depends on how Apple maneuvers. Mobile chips (A15) are high volume so very unlikely to get moved but it's certainly possible for the lower-volume Mac products, e.g. M2/M1X for Macbook/iMac, to switch onto leading-node 3nm if yields are good.

Apple is certainly incentivized as it'd allow them to continue the narrative that their own SOCs are superior to anything else on the market.
Chromium is almost everything. The easiest way to test it is to grab a Chromium binary https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/download-chromium and see what it feels like. The short answer is that it feels just like Chrome. :)

The biggest difference is that there are no Chromium builds for security updates, nor is there a Chromium update server. (So if you're using it as your day-to-day browser, you probably want to be using nightly and updating it by hand.)

The extension code is in Chromium.

Flash was in Chrome, Widevine is in Chrome, etc. If you don't care about non-free extensions and DRM'd media, then you won't miss them.

The Google account login/sync stuff is in Chrome. You probably won't miss it either.
> The fragility of American imperialism and its fear in being portrayed in any negative light knows no limits.

This is 100% unarguably, demonstrably false. Americans write books critical about American imperialism (https://www.amazon.com/Imperial-Cruise-Secret-History-Empire...), we make (and fund with public broadcasting money!) documentaries that criticize both the effectiveness and wisdom of our own military efforts (https://www.pbs.org/kenburns/the-vietnam-war/). Most US media has been very critical of recent military efforts. These are just a few examples.

Is the US perfect? No. Are there examples of it the US behaving in a way that makes its citizens less than proud? Yes. But there is a wide gulf between the US and the CCP and what one can get away with saying and doing in the US vs. what one can say or do under CCP control.
Hi, lead SmartBlock dev here. My regular job at Mozilla involves diagnosing web sites for web compatibility issues, so I definitely share your concerns -- I routinely see sites relying on scripts loading in a specific order, but not coding themselves in a way that ensures that they actually do.

I haven't received any reports so far during the six-month-or-so nightly cycle where SmartBlock was only on nightly builds, so I'm optimistic. In the worst case we might be able to just add in an artificial delay to fix that, but of course I'd rather waste user's time like that unless that's 100% necessary.

And ultimately, problems are at least as likely (in my experience) to manifest with scripts loading too slowly, or not loading at all due to random networking hiccups.. many sites just aren't very tolerant at all of script loading failures.

Some have hypothesized that Reddit was trying to increase their diversity numbers but it seems more likely that she's friends with someone or has a group of friends at Reddit and that's how she made it though whatever hiring process they have. Reddit doesn't strike me as the type of place that's very rigorous when it comes to process so knowing the right people might have been enough. Of course this is all conjecture.

The Blank-Cheque user isn't a paragon of morality either though.
Exactly this - Chinese people are not fundamentally different from us. We have more or less the same desires or worries and the same type of people usually come to power. Politicians of all sides always wanted to exert a degree of control over the society and today's technology finally can make it happen. There is no way they'll pass on such opportunity. It is taking small steps - they start with the control of money - the equivalents of IRS have live access to individuals and corporation bank accounts. Then you have promotion of cashless society. Once they'll get control over your means to eat, they'll take on controlling behaviours. It's going downhill.
How VMware SD-WAN High-Availability Works

I wrote it using Lyx which is WYSIWYG for LaTeX. Then I convert the LaTeX document into HTML.

I did the same, but with a 3070. I was going to buy all new parts anyhow, and this saved me a lot of hassle, so it was worth the extra money IMO.

I still didn't like doing it. It's the first pre-built desktop that I've bought ever. And the first one I've owned since middle school. But I was sick of waiting and wouldn't pay a scalper.
Seems to me this would be a perfect opportunity to use lasers to shoot down drones. We have the technology in both targetting and lasers. I suppose that means someone has already thought of it and is working on it at raytheon or boeing.

> One thing I am not sure is why such a radical action was taken so quickly without thinking carefully first?

I think this can be answered by considering the following:

> At least that's how we'd (try to) handle it on our project under Eclipse Foundation…

Looking at https://github.com/minad/mimemagic, I did not get the impression that the software was backed by any organization, let alone one on the scale of the Eclipse Foundation. If indeed the software is essentially one person, imagine it from their perspective.

> Anyway, talking to people first before doing something quickly is often a good idea.

Assuming that this was not intentional (see Hanlon's razor), you could quickly have groups like the gpl-violations.org project taking notice, and things snowballing from there. I'm not calling out gpl-violations.org specifically here, instead I'm noting that there are other people who _would_ do something quickly.

Another thing to note is that u/minad is (per their GitHub profile) in Germany. That will also affect their opinion on things related to licensing.
The negativity, cynicism, and sarcasm in this comment regarding a subject I hold dear just makes me sad.

That "aimless generative nonsense" brings plenty of joy to its creators and listeners and for many there are more important goals than "complexity" (which is generally considered a bug not a feature in other areas).
A proper VPN should mitigate that paranoia, if you choose.

Yes, you have to trust the VPN provider. But it goes from "anyone could be monitoring my metadata" to "Protonmail or Mozilla could be monitoring my metadata" and, at least for Protonmail, one credible leak of that would completely end the company.

And this is the relationship you have with your phone provider already... although if you're paranoid, let's skip talking about what can be sniffed between your cell and the tower!

No idea if that's worth it to you, I never, ever use public WiFi without a VPN. Just tossing that out there.

As an aside to the aside, I just read your story of how you went from programming to trucking, and I can relate to a lot of it. It sounds like undiagnosed ADHD, but lifestyle changes are a valid way to accommodate that, and come with fewer side effects than medication. I'm lucky to have the job that I have; I expect I'm more temperamentally suited to driving a truck than to the median software engineering position.
> if you're an indie developer do you go with D or with Unity (which uses C#)?

You would have to weight this choice against existing engines like Unity/Unreal/Godot vs custom. I released a game with custom engine in D once and what really mattered was that there was no market fit (and no sales). Choosing engine vs custom is a question that only exists if people materialize to play your game ; a lot of successful game shops are prototype-heavy or at least advise that strategy.
I was able to get rtx 3070 last year, but I was refreshing eshop whole day.
I saw someone do a similar act a year or two ago, slightly bigger contact pads. I guess if you get the circuit board fairly level, and you have dead solid hands, you can get the old chip off and leave a little puddle of solder on the contacts (which doesn't spread due to surface tension + the protective coating on the circuit board?).

If you get the new chip straight (and it looks like he added more flux?) then it can bond again. But if you're over caffeinated or the chip otherwise twists, or you use the heat gun too long, then you have an expensive problem.
> It's a huge deal that the CEO has edit permissions in the main Reddit site database

Surely you jest! Do you know how programs work? You don't think HN comments can't be edited by anyone with access to the DB and permission to make changes?

Frankly the idea that people on HN thought that people who run a website can't edit the content on it is one of the most bizarre, disingenuous things I've read on here.

You all know it can be done. Why is everyone pretending otherwise? Is it performative?
Yes, like many people, I use my real name on HN. (But not on Reddit, of course.) And people frequently identify themselves on HN by linking to their blogs or projects. I wouldn't call those people stupid.

I have seen allegations on reddit that Aimee also moderated a number of subreddits, specifically ones pertaining to minors, before, during, and after her fathers' rape and torture of a 10 year old in the house she lived in.

Allowing a person who willfully ignored pedophilia and torture be in a position of power near/directly engaging with minors, and then hiring that person, is despicable.
> The best way forward is probably some metric of reproducibility. Can your paper/experiment be reproduced? Has anyone done so? Did they succeed or fail? Did they publish their results? That would quickly separate the wheat from the chaff.

I wish it was more common to cite a paper and the first few attempts at reproducing it side by side.

It would reward the reproducibility study with a lot of citations and reinforce the credibility of the cited original paper, because the reader now knows that the results quoted have been certified elsewhere.

Sure it can be gamed, but if you see $shady_institution and the reproducibility study was made by $other_shady_institution you can still draw your own conclusions...

Recently I got fed up with C++ for good and have no interest in touching it anymore. There's just a sheer amount of complexity and lack of free (as in beer) tooling that has driven me mad these past years until I finally gave up last month.

Then I checked D and I wanted to try it, but couldn't get a Rider/IntellliJ (can't recall) plugin to work, so I also marked it as lack of tooling; I also couldn't find many code examples, either on github or in communities which weren't old-ass forums.

I finally decided to go back to the sanest language I've used, which is C#. With little effort I could get back to writing code instead of endless yak shaving for simple things. For these kind of projects I'm working, a GC isn't the issue, so that didn't bother me. It feels like asking for modern class-based with c-like-syntax and a good std lib in a language is too much... It's sad that C++ "won" the race being such a cumbersome language with slow compile times and a outdated mindset.
