There's negative value in having a commit in the history which turns the build red; it should be removed, but the requirement that the branch is squashed onto master doesn't follow.

It'd be a perfectly valid alternative in some cases to clean the commit history and rebase a number of atomic commits onto master if it would make the history more readable.
You may be right - this was a looong time ago. Calculating the angles from the data is not difficult though, so I may have forgot that I did it. I can't really imagine calculating and placing the labels myself though, but perhaps I was cleverer then!

Anyway, the HP pen plotter we had in the early 1980s was a very impressive device, when what we had were Z80 based computers driving them.

I think the answer is just to have more people in the loop. Why do I have to write code, tests, documentation, dealing with jira tickets etc... In the old days, people had secretaries to handle some tasks. I would gladly exchange lower pay for having more people to spread out these tasks.
Funny, I feel the other way around. I waited until I was 40 and everything seems like it was so much easier.

All our friends had had kids, so there was this unlimited supply of free baby stuff available. Not that we needed free stuff because we had a whole lifetime of savings and high paying jobs to cover any expenses that might have come up. I also don't need anywhere near as much sleep anymore as I did in my 20s, so when it turned out that I had to stay up all night every night, it wasn't all that hard to make the switch.

I can't imagine how I could have pulled it off if I also had to work the crappy entry level office job I had in my 20s, living in my dingy studio apartment and eating ramen to try to squirrel away some savings.

Waiting until you're 40 is doing it on easy mode.
This is a terrible solution. Writing is part of the developers job requirements. And writing doesn't just happen in documentation. It happens in emails, technical specs, presentations, code comments. Developers should maybe just get better at their job because documenting and writing is part of it.
Definitely not,

There is a rather large difference between perpetuating the species at a sustainable level and “everyone who even remotely wants kids should have some.” If you can’t appreciate this difference, this thread probably isn’t for you.

The trick is to of course read a few of the ratings to get behind the rating number. I also filtered for 1000+ ratings as who’d want to develop an app based on research for a app no one is using.

A theme I saw in my 5 minutes of usage were apps that were once loved and popular but have been poorly maintained through the android updates. I get that for small app devs - I had an app and I got so many “ya gotta do this” emails from Google I just abandoned it. It was a free app so didn’t feel so bad.
I’d be wild about anything that could trace our Cypress tests against our frontend and our nodejs microservices.
As a 43yr male with 4 kids, 19G, 15G, 10B and 7G I honestly question everyday was having kids the right choice. I love them all to bits but like freshgreen9 sometimes I hate the shits..

Then best age is around 2 - 4, when they sleep through the night, are almost toilet trained, can communicate and eat mostly anything. At this age they are beautiful and are your world and you are theirs. Just before they get tainted by the realworld and become shits.. Then from that point, its a constant learning curve.

I learnt as much about myself as a man and person from my 19 yr as I do from my 7yr and as much from my 10 yr son. I am forever learning and sometime they are painful lessons, ones where you have to pull up your big boy pants and firm it, type of pain.

The best advise I wish I was told earlier is, just because they are your kids it doesnt mean you can expect them to be how you want them to be. We as parents are there to simply guide provide some guide rails, then step the f*k back and leave them on their journey. If you try to do anything other than step back and wait till they need you, your in for a world of heart ache and pain!!!

p.s. GOOD LUCK!!

Show HN: Covid Vaccine slot spotter tool for India
If you choose to describe majority of the electorate in multiple elections in a row as “not meeting the definition of ‘being a functional adult’”, then whatever definition you used for those words are not useful ones — and that’s just Prohibition.

Disagreeing with the requirements of sections 64, 65, and 70? Outside of philosophical discussions, most normal people find them sufficiently repulsive that even suggesting they might not be things that ought to be illegal is enough to make you a social pariah. (I’m not sure exactly how 69 or 71 are seen, but the actions they outlaw are demonstrably frowned on enough for the sections to survive multiple elections).

It works well for most repos but as you start to get out to the edges of lots of commits it can cause slowness. GL admins can repack reasonably safely at various times to get access speedups, but the solution that is presented in the blog would def speed packing up.

I feel that someone is going to run with this and suggest that we should all be doing “documentation-driven-development” :-)
It takes a lot of bravery to admit this, and you're certainly not alone in feeling that way - disliking your kids is common but a taboo subject.

It's worth asking yourself whether you /want/ to like your kids. Would your life be better if you liked them? If you don't want to like them, why not? If you do want to, how might you go about that?

I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but a therapist can be a really good platform for talking through and exploring things like this, which might be hard to discuss with friends/family/etc.
If that is the case, then that is that. You won't know without trying though.
Did you read nothing else? That is the best possible case, as measured by someone's particular device under ideal conditions - which simply do not exist for a cell phone or a device in a pocket, backpack, or house.

Civilian grade gps receivers often do not have large antenna, can track only a few active satellites at once (often only processing 3-4 satellites even if they are aware of 20 or more) and only receive a single frequency of signals instead of both available frequencies. You want your device to be thin, right?

All this means your stolen cell phone, in someone's pocket inside of a building is going to have horrible resolution, unless it augments it's position data with other sources such as realtime cell tower triangulation or is in a really dense, previously observed wifi area... which are things not available to these tracker devices.
I think educators are certainly to blame - as much as it's convenient to blame admin staff, educators in my experience set the course book.

Pearson etc offer them a time saver they don't have to pay for - they take out the effort of assigning and marking exercises, and don't add any cost to the educator. The students pay, and Pearson uses these codes to inconvenience students and force them to buy new copies.

If you think like an MBA, it's a great idea - the person in decision making power benefits from this move (exercises handled for them), is probably unaware of the issue for students, and has more time to spend on something else they need to do (raising grants, trying to write papers to keep going on the tenure treadmill). But you also get to sell a new copy of each book annually, at full price, without used sales cannibalising your returns. Given there isn't a huge growth in universities each year, this is a great way to boost revenues sustainably.

In my experience on the other side of the pond, we used 1 textbook in the entire degree. It was reasonably priced, readily available second hand, and didn't have any single use license codes. Indeed, one instructor used to upload the relevant chapters of their own book as PDF files, insisting nobody buy the book as it wasn't worth it!!
Sorry, I thought it was clear from the context that we are talking about how seniority rule—and whether it is discriminatory—in general. The original quote is:

> > Jane Yang, a data analyst at the company, told me that restricting internal conversations would negatively affect diversity and inclusion efforts. For example, she said, the company’s profit-sharing plan gave more profits to people who have longer tenure — a group that is majority white and male. Making that discussion off limits internally could ensure that inequality in profit sharing becomes a structural feature of the company.

> It's not like they had a rule that white males get more money, it's a seniority rule! It seems unreasonable to me to extrapolate that to systemic racism in the company.

And the reply was:

> Hardly anyone wakes up in the morning and decides that it's a good day to oppress G people. They wake up in the morning having some amount of privilege, discover that it might be threatened, and their actions that day try to avoid reduction of privilege, even if it means treating G people unfairly. It's not anti-G people at first, it's just pro-self.

The argument here is that if we evaluate by a metric that benefits the in-group more then the out-group you end up with doing discrimination.

In the comment you are replying I’m giving examples of fair pay and fair accommodations in general. It is a respond to GP which misunderstands previous post that we should be paying minorities higher to adjust for the bias that is causing seniority benefits being unfair. But as I have said, that is simply not what I’m (nor anybody here is) arguing.

To me the biggest thing is that I don't make a lot of tables in markdown so being able to drag and drop that would be easier than looking it up. Although having a list of potential sections is helpful too.

I am wondering if there is something like a snippet database plugin for any text editor that would allow you to easily look things up without googling into Stack Overflow. Or maybe it would literally do that behind the scenes.

Because there are so many times where you just need a short example of how to use something so you get the syntax and core parameters or whatever right. Even for basic things like making a table in markdown. Which I think uses the pipe bar and hyphens but not sure.

I'm not arguing against empathy for those who have been hurt by past acts of racism. We consider it normal and healthy to be careful and sensitive around those who have PTSD or the like from real offenses committed against them in the past. But to fail to be empathetic and thus re-open an emotional wound is not in the same category as the original offense, however bad such a lack of empathy may be.

You're making several categorical errors in your posts. We have to be careful to speak and think with precision. "The truth will set you free" and "the tongue of the wise brings healing"; but logical fallacies only muddy the water, and vague accusations stir up strife.
It's mostly the observation that VR and AR have been right around the corner for a long time. (And, yes, I'm aware that are VR products in the market but also that it's not really mainstream.)

Id did say nothing about prejudice, there are bad people you can't deny that.

I just said that there are really bad peoples around, and nothing about prejudice or hiding from society.

Would this not allow companies with deep pockets to continue to abuse the smaller channels who might not have $1000 lying around to put in escrow on the off chance of losing the $1000 just because some lawyer somewhere made a bad decision?

Something I haven't seen in the comments, yet, is that kids are truly a one-way decision. I knew this before I went into it, but the repercussions didn't really hit me until after we brought the kid into the world.

You will find out things about your spouse and yourself that you never knew about, but your kid will have inherited them. Some of these things are attractive features, others are not. You might have to figure out how to deal with a feature of your kid that is not attractive. Some of these things can be fixed in post, others, not so much. Some of these possibilities include genetic diseases, which absolutely no one deserves, but do happen.

Having a kid is an enormously brave and risky decision. You roll the dice and you get what you get. There's no going back.

Edit: All that said, I do not regret my decision, even though I've been exhausted for coming up on two years and so has my wife. When it's bad, it's the worst. When it's good, it's the best. You will find yourself capable of more patience and resilience than you ever thought possible.

ugly is subjective so I won't touch on that.

The low standard one is reasonable as that is what keeps costs low. The alternative is high standard and high cost. You can't really get high standards for low costs.

If the government dictates that all housing needs to be high standard, the collateral damage to that policy is that you can only build housing that prices people out of the market.

That’s...both unsupported and a particularly bizarre ad hominem, but I am an American (and, probably more relevant, have a degree in political science with a course of study focussed on the American system), but its not like the main problem claims about the US system here require particular expertise beyond, you know, reading the readily-available text of foundational documents.

I’m not sure what “commenting like they were [Americans]” means in this context.
I apologize. But it's frustrating when people express opposition to even a minimum wage level from the 1960s with sort of outlandish hypotheticals. There's a bunch of pretty good empirical research out there on the effects of minimum wage increases, and none of them suggest this sort of "exponential" increasing effect.

Suppose

(a) You suddenly realize that the production code in the main (not deployed) branch is incorrect

(b) There is no test coverage for the bug

(c) You have time to commit a test reproducing the bug, but a fix will take days.

In this situation you think there is negative value in committing a failing test that will make the build go red? Perhaps you were forgetting that sometimes commits alter production code paths and sometimes they alter test code?
Yeah, ugly truth prevails.
It's not math, it's a hypothetical, somewhat absurd model.

In theory this matters, because we could load the perfect image size for our element, if only HTML could.

But in practice:

1. You wouldn't want to have thousands of slightly different size variations of the same image generated and cached on your CDN/server.

2. You would quantize and keep a few sizes (like small, medium, large, xlarge).

3. Once you do this, screen size becomes good enough of a heuristic to figure out which of the above set of quantized images you need for an element.

4. Ergo, all is as it should be.

That seems to be the case in general, but I have to say in this case it doesn’t really require that to decide to take the opportunity to slam dunk on someone when you discover you’ve been scammed into agreeing to be a speaker for their scam.

Then we could trade jobs for a while.
