Yeah, you do not need a reason and you do not owe the community a lengthy conversation about whether your emotions are valid. You're a volunteer. It's great if other people there reach out for support, but ultimately it doesn't matter if anyone else thinks their experience was real or if their response is reasonable.

Explaining your emotional response when you've been dealing with this kind of thing for an extended period of time is harmful to yourself and I don't think it's remotely fair to complain about them not doing that first. Step one is to keep yourself safe and emotionally healthy. Usually when people get to this point they need at least months before they're even comfortable discussing it privately again, this sounds like it's been going on for a while.

If the organization wants to discuss things on their own they can feel free but including the person who basically says "I'm out" and insisting that they participate if they care about it changing is harassment too, and a recipe for people who have been seriously upset to just get ignored when they refuse to enumerate every instance of behavior that bothered them and have them picked apart by strangers.
I love adding colors to my logs whether they are bash or nodejs, but I generally check if the context is tty or not before applying colors.
I recently learned that Graylog changed their license and it's now one of those vanity licenses: https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/blob/master/LICE...
Given the primary link was to a Twitter press release, I think it is fair to address the supporting claims the release makes. Not intending to flame or provoke.
You mean like AngularJS (which is an entirely different framework then modern angular)

Is there any way to add logging that is stripped at build time? Like in C# if I have a “Debug.WriteLine” it doesn’t exist if built in release mode. I now build ts to js with a “dev” config, could that not strip out all console.debug for me?
> on things outside his field (for example he's got a big problem with Christianity)

For a hard scientist, that's almost a given. He'd be a lousy hard scientist if he didn't have a big problem with it (both when it comes to internal contradictions and in the mismatch with the real world).
Good lord, it's like talking to a brick wall. That thread is agonizing. Why do people still put up with that?

e: Also, it's hilarious to jump to Apr 2021 and see a thread titled "How to make Emacs popular again: Use monospaced fonts less".
> Patel wrote about the end of scarcity, so technology that brings scarcity back seems like a panacea. Perhaps Swift’s 2014 vision was simply ahead of its time?

If our technology allows us to now distribute media in a post-scarcity environment, isn't that a good thing for culture? It's absolutely ridiculous that artificially reintroducing scarcity is seen as a good thing.

It also serves as yet another example of the reliance of profit on artificial scarcity, and the irrationality of the system- as well as the lengths to which people will go, just to desperately preserve an outdated model.
How can you not see what the importance of this new infrastructure? I come here and read these comments and am just at a loss for words at this point. Forget Bitcoin and look at Ethereum. This tech is so powerful I am in some ways scared of it and you call it a fad. The gulf between our interpretations drops my jaw to the floor :)
I got that error too but it still worked.
There is also an interesting argument about crypto being a convenient drain for excess liquidity in the system (injected by the stimulus), which is why it's not being regulated too heavily.

If stocks & crypto were less appealing, perhaps we would all experience higher velocity of money & inflation since demand would turn to "real assets".
This article appears to be discussing how to handle this case from within said shellcheck :)
Yes, you can also practice swimming without water.
Thanks for these links!
And the question is whether that's a problem or not, and if so, who is it a problem for. My comment illustrates that modern CEO pay does not hurt the average employee in any way, only the shareholders.

Either you don't think modern CEO pay is a problem, or you think it's a problem because it makes shareholders poorer. It doesn't impact the rest of the employees or reduce their incomes.
Skip this one. An article written by someone who doesn't understand math, logic, or philosophy, and thinks stamping his foot and saying "general relativity" is the height of explanatory sophistication.
WeWork was also never a tech company but pushed really hard to brand themselves that way. If evaluated truthfully as a real estate company, the money they raised was hilariously idiotic.

So much of this world is driven by idiotic speculation based on slick websites and charismatic presenters.
> As long as we are all free to be the founders or the employees

But we're not. Much of it comes down to the simple lottery of the circumstances into which you were born.

If you have an inherited trust fund, or wealthy parents and friends to fall back on, you can take huge risks, one of which might eventually lead to a multi-million dollar payout even if several of them fail dismally in the meantime.

But if keeping a roof over your head and putting food on the table today is dependent on working two backbreaking jobs today and every day, you're not "free" to be a founder.

"To them that have, more shall be given."
I think worldwide that this entire discussion about Africa is too reductive.

Like, even here the title and the African director are writing about the African community but referring to an improving sector within Ghana.

This in turn has the rest of us continuing to talk about Africa in an unnuanced and defensive or unproductive way.

A regional data center serving the African continent is establishing presence in Africa. This would be the same standard as other infrastructure projects in other continents.

A hiring practice or office in a city in one country is establishing a presence in that country. This would be the same standard as other company expansions in other countries.

I think this is a humble ask, as people are excited about attention to the African continent and integration to the global growth community, however there are very many hurdles towards a unified African market and I don't really think thats the focus or most productive goal. It is a fiction to refer to it as such for a place with 50 to 100 regional markets, almost infinite permutations with their own problems and benefits.
> But these don't come from the cashflow of the business like wages and salary. They come from diluting Wall Street.

How are these different? If the business pays its employees $X more, that money doesn't just appear out of nowhere. It comes out of other areas of the business -- such as capex, M&A, or retained profits. All of these things contribute directly to the value of the shares held by Wall Street, whether directly (in the case of a dividend or share buyback) or indirectly by growing the business. Likewise, dilution means that an existing shareholder benefits less from $X worth of these things, and therefore should demand an increase in X (or a reduced stock price).

It's all money either way, and money is fungible.

Beany babies spawned a lot of successful business, but you absolutely cannot from derive that they were fit for purpose, or in any way useful.

You're cargo culting.

They're still a solution in search of a problem, backed by tech people who think they understand what they are trying to replace.

Once you understand the fence you can tear it down, but cryptonerds really really don't understand law (they think smart contracts solve a problem) or economics.
What I learnt from a friend of mine who studied archeology: latrine was not a strictly separated place. Instead, there were more generic "trash places", where latrines usually stood, but a lot more unwanted things ended up, too. Including broken pottery, bones and fruit stones.
The comments on the thread surprises me. Some seem to imply that this a negative development.

Whereas in Africa here people are happy for this development.

I can assure you that the only eyebrows raised are so because every country feels Twitter should have come to theirs. This is big win for Ghana. In fact, many Nigerians are chastising their government at the moment for not being able to attract Twitter due to their instability and corruption
Really, for CF analytics you just need to use their DNS, I don't think they have separate analytics for 'Pages'. Though they have an "app" you can add which technically adds a script (on pages served through their CDN) for more detailed analytics.

Don't discount humanity's desire for the abstract.

Love, truth, justice, honor, patriotism, status, etc.

So long as there is consensus that a thing exists (tangibly or intangibly) and is desirable, there will be demand.
The question is whether anyone is worse off because of it, and my comment points out that contrary to popular rhetoric, if anyone is getting hurt by it, it's not the employees.

If you think nobody is getting hurt by it, it's not a problem, it's just envy.
And therefore... what?

We listen to him because he founded the website? Do Facebook users listen to Zuckerberg because he founded Facebook? I doubt that many do.

Or do we listen to PG because the kind of people who find his writings to be interesting have some overlap the kind of people who are attracted to the website that he founded?
If you ask the fancy restaurant to cater a steak dinner for 1000 people they will charge you a lot closer to supermarket beef.

The point is that if you charge absurd prices for what has basically no marginal cost your pricing model is broken and 1) you are excluding customers that are particularly sensitive to this price or 2) you are liable to undercharge other customers that primarily use other services for which you are not charging what it costs you to provide.

For AWS, given the generally inflated prices, it's probably a lot more of 1) than 2).
Hah! :)) So naive. No way this is possible. Attacking compute used to secure it means attacking a whole lot of machines. And the people near those machines will patch them. An you need to attack 51% of them at the same time. Even if you manage to do a 2x spend, they will live with it and patch the stuff and people will still use it. Because what is a couple of 2x somewhere along the way compared to the rest of the blocks it secured?

Not to mention of the geopolitical consequence.

No, this "have the NSA directly attack the compute " is not feasible and would only strengthen its position in the long term.

Allergy immunotherapy. I started a company on the backs of this treatment.

The way we treat allergies today, with Zyrtec and Claritin, is medieval medicine. It doesn't solve the underlying problem; it just tries to cover it up.

Allergy immunotherapy is the future. Most people don't realize that allergies are now a curable disease. In the future, taking Claritin for allergies is going to seem like taking Tylenol for an ear infection. Why would you treat the symptoms when you could just cure the disease?

I started Wyndly (https://www.wyndly.com) to bring immunotherapy for pollen, pets, and dust across the USA. But we'll expand into food allergies soon, too.
Add to it that that one investment requires the capital to invest. I have no connections outside of my career bubble and those people are seemingly in the same class as I am. How would I ever supersede my class?...or should I even aspire to do so? It seems unlikely and in many ways out of my control. This is coming from someone who believes in a strong work ethic and increasing access to risk (good or bad).
I mean I'm not making the argument that this is a good idea, but if your company runs on low skill workers working very hard for very low pay, keeping them low skill is key to keep them willing to work that job.

Maybe I'm being disrespectful to these job, assuming that skilling up won't make them more productive and valuable.

Right, but they aren't complaining about collection of identifying data. Google/Android (or iOS) isn't collecting the AAID themselves in an unauthorized way.

The complaint is purely that the AAID is generated, fully independent of whether or not it's ever used.
Is it really the case that Jeff Bezos is consuming a million times more finite resources than someone whose net worth is $100k? It seems to me like what you buy with virtually infinite money is status like hanging out or sleeping with celebrities, a seat in important rooms, and assets. There is only so much additional jet fuel and human labor a multi-billionaire can consume.

Having spent a few hours reading through their docs when I was comparing flutter to NS, I have to say I agree with most of his points. It's mostly the equivalent of autodocs, with no conceptual foundation or guiding principles about how to use the system.

I hit their site again today and I have to say, I'm pretty confused by their support page - https://nativescript.org/support

They claim to be OSS, but they offer a form that appears to be equivalent to paid support, and mention "business personnel" whatever that means...

So if I went in blind and assumed I could get support (paid - of course), and it turns out I can't, and there's little community support to boot... I'd be a little negative too.
China brings out its censors over vaccine critique
Hahaha, that was before my time, so no idea. But I was just guessing based on flutter being open source. Guess taking over a huge codebase from an entirely different team who was being paid for it full time isn't feasible even in the slightest?
> Why didn't employee profit-sharing increase at the same rate as non-salary compensation did for CEOs?

Because employees generally hated profit sharing and created unions to fight against it. Joseph Blasi talks about this in his book The Citizens Share. And it's not like he's some crank conservative, he's the economic advisor for Elizabeth Warren.
We only buy Nuance Dragon Naturally speaking for our lawyers. It’s the best product out there. So maybe they want the Dragon technology.
Calling YouTube a social media platform is a stretch. Is Amazon a social media platform ? The reviews effectively are the same thing as YouTube comments.
The user would download a webassembly bundle (compiled from the original Rust) and execute it, similar to most websites. It should be fine.
Didn't you just say the stock owners were being diluted by the CEO compensations? Doesn't that include the 401k and pension funds? Isn't this is a massive transfer of wealth the the managerial class, justified simply because they can do it, and leave the consequences to others to clean up.
"Gao's remarks were controversial in China and, as his comments gained traction on social media and international news platforms, Chinese censors quickly scrubbed discussions online. State media swiftly put out an interview with Gao to walk back his comments.

Global Times, a state-run nationalist tabloid, quoted Gao as saying reports about his admission were "a complete misunderstanding," and published new, toned-down remarks from Gao."

oops, I guess Gao didn't stay on message. Too bad not embarrassing the regime is more important than genuinely informing the public.
This is a huge part of "start up culture" though - like any religion (or lottery, or whatever), superstition plays a large part, and the most important superstition is that those who have been successful before know how to do it again.

I'm not sure if I like your comparison to be honest.. not only is it not _just_ maintenance and filling the tank, if we stick with your picture, there is also things like buying the car, paying for it when no one uses it, insuring the car, repairing the car, general logistics of moving it around when someone has a one way rental, etc. - basically making it convenient for consumers to rent a car.

Looking at what "as a service" providers of open source software do though, that is taking it a step further, since they wrap the software in a layer that _smoothes_ out changes for the user. Going back to the rental company that would equate to the car manufacturer deciding the indicator needs to be on the right side of the steering wheel now and the rental company installing an adaptor so that it remains on the left for you, to keep the look and feel for the user the same.

Not a perfect comparison, but they never are :)
Elon doesn't have to do anything for a pump and dump to occur - unless Tesla buying somehow becomes considered a pump action; if more gullible people or "amateur investors" buy into Bitcoin driving up the price because of whatever reasons, it's not Elon's responsibility to protect them - that is government and the SEC's role.

Elon's said "Bitcoin is almost as much bs as fiat money" - so he likely doesn't see that as end up. Because of this I could see Tesla selling $1 billion worth of EVs via Bitcoin, waiting for that to reach $10-$20 billion+ in value - and then slowly selling off say $4 billion worth to prevent a price crash - and then dumping $10B+ all at once as an experiment.

It’s not that different.
Elasticsearch is a no-sql database that optimizes for full-text searches, built atop Apache Lucene. If you're doing any kind of full-text search, for example, if you're trying to index a university library and make it searchable, then elasticsearch is for you. If you're not, I'd look elsewhere.
Yes. There are also plenty of people who are OK with being insensitive, or with offending half their userbase. And that's their choice.

But at the same time, giving the author a heads-up that they might inadvertently sort themselves in that group is, I think, a kindness.
> Elon Musk I believe also was the beneficiary of a small amount of investment from his parents.

There's so much mythology around this. I've heard the argument, "he had no support from his father", and I've read in more detail that one of the examples of said lack of support was "Elon and his friends wanted to buy and operate a video game arcade when they were teenagers, but his father refused to provide financial assistance".

There's a whole world between "deadbeat" and "wouldn't buy his son and his friends their own video arcade".
It's a ridiculous comparison, though.

E.g. try to regularly move billions in cash and see how long it'll take before you're busted for not reporting that you're doing that.

A billion bucks weighs a fucktonne.

I'm pro cash, anti cryptocurrency, because the comparison is absolutely ridiculous there's no contradiction.

Local conditions and probably equipment will make a difference in pressure. My well kicks on around 35 psi and off around 65, if I'm remembering right. Of course, it failed in the past year, no digging required, but it did take the better part of a day to pull up the old one, and attach a new one and lower it down. Plus one day of troubleshooting and a day of waiting for the pump to arrive didn't make a fun few days.
They don't have the same depth of experience in developing chat apps as some other bay area companies.
Large amounts of cash, and not even all that large ($10k) have been considered evidence of crime and confiscated by the cops in the US. The laws that enable this have been slowly dying off, but it still happens. No other evidence of a crime is necessary nor do the people need to be convicted of anything, the cops just take the money because it might be used to commit a crime.
