I've seen him talk about his tendency toward depression and I've seen him talk about his recent addiction, illness, and ongoing recuperation.

I've watched a lot of his videos and read his books. I never saw him mock mental disease or say that addiction was for the weak (unless to the extent that all humanity is weak). That just doesn't sound like the type of thing Peterson would say. I have a hard time believing you.
Verizon held Yahoo / AOL for about five years, they were bought at different times. ATT bought Time Warner a little less than three years ago. I think it will take longer for them to give up on that, but I bet they will start selling it (in parts) in three to four years.

I know people here are saying, but WB is valuable! It is, but they are doing a great job of tanking it.
Aren't those more about the id than the ego?
Not everyone has the time, desire, inclination, or capability to articulate the questions required to chart out the "analytics package" space.

Nor does everyone have the luxury of hiring a PM to do it for them.

I agree that GOPATH makes integration with other package managers much easier.

However, this is a lost cause at this point. Go is removing GOPATH support in the next release (Go 1.17). See: https://blog.golang.org/go116-module-changes

I think the screenwriter was making a very obscure joke, not mocking the job. You can use varnish to preserve dry baked goods for display like in a bakery or for a Hollywood prop.
That still means that if you lose your domain name (gomod.garykim.dev) for whatever reason, you have to modify your code.
I think we could have those API only enabled for Web Apps and not within Safari. But then Apple want to push everything to native App. Which is fine if it wasn't for the curation of App Store which has some benefits and problems.
What level of air pollution exposure do you have? Have you monitored your indoor air quality with a PM2.5 device, or used an air purifier? Do you live near a busy road, or a coal plant?

Good luck for your treatment and recovery.

Rocket looks set for uncontrolled reentry following Chinese space launch
Literally everywhere... but we've not had that challenged yet. Perhaps there are some countries where for various reasons we might not hire (i.e. North Korea would likely pose a challenge) but we've so far hired everywhere we've found great people to hire... and have employees in South America, South Africa, Australia, India, throughout Europe (too many countries to list), North America. When hiring we do not check a list of countries but do check that the person we are considering has the right to work where they are and that we have the right to hire them (as a direct contractor if it's a country where we do not have a legal entity).

However things aren't as simple as just saying we hire anywhere as some teams are looking to increase the number of engineers across a set of time zones, i.e. if a team has a lot of people in EMEA and APAC already then hiring in the Americas smoothes the on-call burden. So for some roles in some teams we may prefer people to be aligned to some time zones.

I'm a Software Engineer with a background in cloud/systems engineering, SRE, and full-stack development. Manager of One.

The startup I was working for was acquired 7 months ago and I'm now looking for new opportunities. I'm primarily interested
in mid-size, mid-stage startups with a great work culture. Bonus points to bootstrapped companies.

Direct Response Copywriter. I write copy for websites, sales pages, landing pages, sales pitches, webinar copy, billboards, you name it.

LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dinacalakovicdirectresponsecopyw...

Email: dina.calakovic1@gmail.com

If you're looking for a savvy developer to work on your next project, then I suppose you could use some good copywriting to hook people into what you're selling & boost conversions.

Because no matter how genius your coding or how appealing your design, the actual WORDS on the page will ultimately persuade your prospects to buy.

This is where I kick in. :)

I write copy that converts readers into paying customers.

If you’re looking for top-notch copy…the one that sets you miles apart from the crowd…and shows your audience why they should be doing business with YOU – look no further.

Either email me or shoot me a DM on LinkedIn. I basically live there.

P.S. If you’re running a meaningful business that links profit with purpose and strives to make the world a better place – you’re my kind of person. You’ll get a 20% discount immediately.

DDG was a collection of perl scripts around Yahoo BOSS (Build You Own Search Service), which is now backed by Bing. Nowadays, DDG has vastly outgrown its original serving by adding their most crucial ingredient: Privacy FUD.
> I think most of us would agree that they've changed society for the worse.

I agree with this but I didn’t want to presume it, since there are positives too.
The thing that gets me is that AMP isn't even necessarily that fast. It appears fast because the Google search results page preloads AMP articles, which it's able to do because they are served from the same google.com domain.

Overall it just feels like hack upon hidden hack with a sliver of standardisation on top.

Mass media has gone bonkers my friend.

If you haven't been following, they even had a headline "first night curfew, hegirutte gottaa!?" with "first night" in a different color.

It's all about masala headlines. Nobody bothers about textbook Kannada anymore, except of course students and hapless Kannada teachers.

cockpit worked great!
And the many times they have tried it either flopped outright or fizzled with little notice. The xServe and xRAID were very cool looking and actually quite functional, but never did integrate well into overall datacenter operations and ultimately that's what did them in. Unless Apple wanted to take it on to eliminate reliance on AWS, Azure and others I don't see them as having much incentive to care about the server space.

Indeed, if you ever see rumblings of them bringing more datacenter operations to be entirely in house then at some future point I could see them leveraging that to sell externally.

Unless they got really ambitious and planned on supplanting AWS entirely and thus their hardware gives them a significant edge.

But Apple has been so bad at software in general for so long, especially on the server side of things, I'm not holding my breath for that. They certainly have the resources to do it if they had the right person to drive it though, so never say never.
This is where I think the original data admins were deluding themselves. Expecting 1,400 analysts to write better code is a really non-trivial problem, but easy to proclaim.

An actual solution is creating pre-joined tables and having processes ("Hey your query took forever, have you considered using X?") or connectors (".getPrejoinedPatientTable()") that make sure those tables are being used in practice.
Awesome mission, major kudos
It's more likely to be used by someone who then implements a practical tool on top of it. I used it to prove relational properties of WASM programs, which is useful to prove security properties like constant-time or differential privacy. You can also use it to prove program equivalence, which I think would be neat for testing a compiler with.
> What if I want to use version 1.4.1 in one project, but 1.0.3 in another project?

One of the main reasons to use a monorepo is to work at a single HEAD, letting you do large scale refactors within single/linked commits, without ever having to fork any code due to breakage (as you change both sides of a potentially breaking contract in the same change). I would argue that if you're attempting to do multiple code versions in a monorepo, you're doing monorepos wrong. Or at least, you're not doing them Google-style, and that's really what GOPATH and Go has been engineered to work well with.

In that case, yes, you will likely hit an impedance mismatch with Go OOTB. But I'm also quite sure it's possible to write custom tooling around the Go compiler to work with this setup (ie. use `go tool compile` and set things up manually for compilation, without using `go build` which is quite opinionated).

However, if you have a monorepo with multiple code versions per subpath, what you're really doing is multirepo disguised as a technically-a-monorepo-I-guess-I-mean-it's-a-single-repo-that-makes-it-a-monorepo, with none of the benefits of either approach.
Dangit, there should have been an ASCII block character in that second printf. Here's a version with an asterisk instead:

What does it mean for something to be related to 5G? Actually related, or part of the "5G AI cloud" marketing buzzwords that don't seem to mean anything?
Yes, over and above any other social network.

I keep my network mostly relevant to the domain I work in, which means it's highly interconnected.

Content: Purely from the way LinkedIn operates, anytime I publish something several people in my "target audience" find interesting enough to "Like", a bunch of other professionals with similar interests will then see these posts. I tend to get many new followers this way. Some become avid readers, some then become clients.

Networking: This is where a lot of the value of LinkedIn lies. It's a way to have good conversations with people up and down the industry. I had no need for in-person events this year in order to network - it was there every day.

Business opportunities: I started getting more serious about posting consistently when I co-founded my company - it takes deliberate effort to be consistently interesting to an audience. But it does pay off.

In my view, LinkedIn plugs a useful social gap, a way to maintain professional relationships over time.
I have fond childhood memories of my dad on weekday evenings: card games; scrabble; quick swims in the ocean; sneaking out of bed if he made nachos late at night.

Of course I have weekend memories too (more of the above, plus also trips/camping/whatever). But they actually stand out less in my memory than the almost-habitual kind of weeknight stuff.
This is what works for me to cut down on phone time when I get tired of it:

turn off/mute ALL notifications that aren't absolutely critical, crank up your notification/ringtone volume, keep your phone somewhere out of the way but within earshot like next to your front door or in the bathroom, and find other things to play with. Buy an instrument, video games, books, movies, whatever. When you get bored, you need something ready to play with or else you're going to just walk over to your phone

We get addicted to shallow things like phones when we don't have something better to keep our attention. Find something better that you have real fun with, not something that just kills time

Neither of my British accounts require a smartphone to log in, they send an SMS or make a voice call. My Danish account uses either an app or SMS.

You probably can't use a startup bank, as the app is one way they cut costs. Use a boring bank.
that's why it is perfect. It's ambiguous enough that could be misread as false flag operation, but it sends message to other targets that they are not safe.
I agree, but when compared to Andy Griffith (the country rube sheriff?), and everything just seemed more "wholesome"; perhaps an idealistic tale of days gone by, but also perhaps an aspirational tale for those who might value the community sometimes found in small, rural places.
This might not seem like a big issue but in the beginning, these were my issues

1. Not so easy way to rename columns during aggregation

2. The group by generates its own grouped by data and hence you almost always need `reset_index`

3. Sometimes group by can convert a dataframe to series

4. Now `.loc` has provided bit consistent indexing/slicing, but earlier you had `.ix` `.iloc` and what not

These are something I can remember from top of my head. Of course all of these have solutions, but it makes pandas much more verbose. In R, these are just much more succinct.
Psh, I've used a TIG welder's arc as an impromptu EPROM eraser. Worked great. It's on video somewhere but I'm not posting it here :)

But yeah, LED is the way to go. Normal "black light" LEDs won't work, I tried. Do as parent says.
Did not expect to see RedFlagDeals on Hacker News!

RFD is an amazing (Canadian) forum officially focused on shopping deals, but it is much more than that.

Just like HN, and maybe even more so, RFD has a user base very diverse in its expertise. People help each other make the best choice when making purchases.

As an example of this forum's impact on Canadian economy, consider this mega-thread started in 2006 (15 years ago) and still going strong (3668 pages) where a group mortgage brokers help people get significantly better deals compared to major banks (we are talking savings of $10-15k per 5 years):
https://forums.redflagdeals.com/official-mortgage-rates-thre...

I tried to use DO Spaces (their S3 equivalent) to store 13 Kb of Pulumi state data, it took 5 minutes to save. Switched to AWS S3, it took less than a second.

>Jay-Z’s deal to sell his streaming service Tidal to Jack Dorsey’s financial services company Square has reportedly closed at $350 million.

Square announced the deal back in March, saying it expected to pay $297 million in a mix of cash and stock for an undisclosed majority ownership stake in Tidal, which Jay-Z and a group of other artists acquired for $56 million in 2015

Obviously Jay Z was uniquely positioned to do this, but what a good exit.
Even in FAANG the AAs pay less (depending on career level.)

Toucan's Founding Story
I make the claim that it's the natural outcome of excessive financialization that no one understands.

That being the situation it's no surprise that distrust of the blackbox economics induces a few people to pull the random simple levers, just to see what happens. The system responds and everyone and their grandmother comes to the realization that bankers and their MBA's know as much about investment as their left big toenail. The veil of psuedo-science, heavy mathematics are just smoke and mirrors to obfuscate the simple levers.

Earning 400K a year with an advanced degree from Wharton in an esteemed financial institutiom has to be justified with mind-boggling complexity so as the title of "expert" is retained somehow.

That's not to say I agree with anyone having to pull a lever and making a fortune whenever they feel like it, nor do I think the myth of free markets should persist when it's convenient. Proper regulation, a strong hand on taxation and debt should make any economy work reasonably well, respond to shocks without resorting to voodoo and making money a product of work rather than interest.
Only if Harvard's admissions don't work very well—for example, because intelligence isn't scalar or is hard to measure, or because they use the wrong measurements, or because they get turned down by a lot of kids they admit, or because a lot of kids they would admit aren't applying. My high school had 2000 students, which I think is typical to large in the US. If we're talking about multiple smart kids at an "average" 1000-person high school, then those are the top 1/500 or top 1/250 of the population. Harvard admits about 2000 students per year and enrolls about 1700 of them, about ⅞ from the US. That's about 1/2000 of the 4-million-or-so US graduates per year.

https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/admissions-statistics

So the average US high school has about 0.5 kids who get admitted to Harvard, about one every 8 years. So if Harvard is admitting exactly the smartest US kids (plus a smaller number of even smarter international students), all of them are probably smarter than any of the smart kids at your high school.

But they probably aren't. I didn't apply to Harvard, myself. If I had, I probably wouldn't have gotten in.
Really? I started college using VT100s in the lab to access the mainframe, and 80 columns was taxing enough to stare at hours on end. Can't imagine a 65% increase in horizontal density!

Probably a nice way of saying "You cannot afford to pay me well" . I am just guessing.
"set by the US government"

It's usually a city government, right? People generally seem to have more concerns with Federal, State, or County level governments. Not to say it isn't a concern, but cities seem less likely to engage in that sort of thing.
Anecdotally my mom who worked in a soviet hospital still keeps in touch with her coworkers - multiple decades after emigrating. Meanwhile I (usually) stop making an effort to keep in touch the second someone leaves the company.

I think there's two parts to this - the Russian attitude of maintaining a few, deep close friends and everyone by and large staying in the same city their entire lives.
Definitely. As a solo founder I really want to keep complexity down. I didn't already have significant experience with k8s, but what experience I had steered me away from it for a one-person setup*. I opted for Nomad and haven't regretted it so far.

I know k8s is more popular (meaning there is broader community support and a larger ecosystem around it), and has an extremely diverse set of features available. I don't doubt it is a sensible choice for many deployments, but I really don't think that these properties are a reason to dismiss alternatives. Nomad works well, and even supports various use-cases that k8s doesn't.

* for this particular project managed options weren't really an option.
