Frankly, the biggest mistake of my career thus far has been starting it. I didn't get in to a university, so I bumbled around for 6 years at a community college. In the middle of it, I managed to get a 6-month stint at a help desk (which I needlessly proud of, and then promptly fired from). Went back to the community college, burned out on trying to get an associates and transfer, and tried changing course to getting some sort of certification. Ended up with a CCNA (which expires later this year), but it turns out nobody near where I live wants to hire a network technician or engineer without a diploma, and my savings aren't enough to move.

So now I'm in my mid twenties and I've only just managed to get an (unpaid, remote) internship thanks to a sympathetic small business owner whose pet technical project is falling behind schedule. Every time I open the project management tool, I feel a vague sense of unease because I'm socially tone deaf and I can't tell if I'm breaking some unspoken rule about "don't word this message this way because you'll sound too confident for an intern speaking to the senior developer," or "don't make a comment on this task because it's assigned to an intern on a different team and you're not supposed to go out of your lane."

I've been writing code of some sort for 11 years, and using Linux daily for 8. Every day I wake up in my childhood bedroom and send my one remaining friend a message. Sometimes she even replies. Then I have the pleasure of spending most of the day fighting with some stupid self-inflicted issue, like why Ethernet broadcast breaks every week on OpenWrt, or why Pulseaudio uses 200% CPU when I try to get it to communicate with a certain cgroup, or what I'm going to use when Fedora 33 hits end of life and I have to get some other DE set up to replace GNOME.

I've dug myself into a labyrinthine, unsatisfying, inescapable hole. So if I could do it all over again... I wouldn't, because, like a ball on a hill, I'd end up right back in here.
It's not as retro, but the new colored iMac M1 remind the first generation of iMac from 1998.

JNA looks reasonable for accessing native code from Java: https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/blob/master/www/Ge...
I’ve written software for a few different Single System Image systems. They are uniformly terrible in my experience because they actively hide material information about the system architecture that is critical for software performance and robustness. I wouldn’t recommend them at all — the “benefits” are greatly outweighed by the downsides in real operational environments.

There is a reason they disappeared even though they were popular at one time. I thought they were a great idea until I actually used them. It is very difficult to write scalable high-performance software on those types of systems, so many edge cases.
I actually really like this whole post. Every time I think about quitting HN altogether a rare gem like this comes along. You should be able to have a little fun with common pain points we all have to deal with. The author has some pretty good suggestions as well. But I almost lost my drink with this one:

“ Imagine if the EC2 were as clean as, I dunno, z/OS, which has more or less been around since the 1960s. That would be pretty cool. I could read a single book instead of 100 books on all the myriad tools and services and frameworks offered by Oligarch Bezos. He would be hailed as a Jobs-like technical innovator if he had some of his slaves do this, and he would be remembered with gratitude, rather than as the sperdo who dumped his wife for sexorz with lip filler Cthulhu.”

Comedy gold.

Many Electron apps are native on mobile. So we really mean on all 3 desktop platforms.

The answer is obviously Qt or Java. It works.
Not believing in myself, having low standards, not being picky enough and ignoring immoral actions and dumb decisions made by CEOs. Those of us who come from poverty often have low self-esteem, it's something that needs to be worked on constantly, like a rotting codebase.
Apple could absolutely do it (or Microsoft, or Google, or Amazon) but there’s no justification for it from a business perspective.
You realize that the Chinese ones are going to be much less stringent? Meaning that claiming it's to the level of the US reqs is misleading and basically faking the cert.
You raise a good point, but the OP's point still stands. All we'd need is comments in header files with the extra type information encoded, and automated FFI would be possible.

Not to say that would be easy... building a type system on top of a language that lacks it is anything but easy, but it's possible. TypeScript is an excellent example.
That's why a site like biztoc.com makes sense — curation + aggregation.
Can Qt help with this? I'm unaware of it's WASM support, but it seems like just a matter of time before they have all the GUI elements.
In the second half of the post he suggests remotely determining an iDevice passcode was possible with his rate limit bypass. Essentially a salted version of the devices passcode is uploaded to the apple server which he could then bypass the rate limit to brute force it.

Isn't this a backdoor that would enable passcode bypass like was requested for the San Bernardino and Pensacola shooters phones?

This vulnerability is a massive deal. With the passcode determined there's nothing stopping bad actors surreptitiously access your data.

After all this a $2,180,000,000,000 market cap company offers a reward of $18,000. What a disgrace!
Same experience here. I always considered myself poor at interviews even though I've done well wherever I worked.

This time around, I put in 6 months of preparation and it paid off. It's the first job in my 10+ year career where I've felt like I got to choose the job I wanted rather than just accepting what was offered. Although the difference with me is that I feel like this is the first job where I have a strong possibility of staying for more than 4 years.
There is no such mechanism. When nations run out of profitable investments they prefer the safety of worthless money than the insecurity of the real world. There is no force in capitalism that forces investment.

If there was we could have avoided WW2 and a lot of other wars.
so because it's not a rule then we should post things in non-English? If you honestly believe so then do that.

People asked me why didn't I focus on the actual project instead of the language, yet they focus on the tone of my comment and not the actual point I'm trying to make.
I put too much effort into work which lead to a severe burnout that rendered me incapable of being useful and productive for years. I'm one of those guys who grew up using computers, every wake minute I was thinking about computer related stuff, everything had a solution using software in my head. I lost this from one moment to the other. Luckily for me it came back after 4 years of the crash. Fun times.

"It the people truly can't afford the games (and wouldn't buy them at all if they didn't have the option to pirate), is there really any harm from their piracy?"

I would say it's still unethical and wrong, regardless if we can't point to a specific entity being hurt. It is entitlement to want something for free when one can't afford it. There are -so- many games nowadays, and many of them are not even close to $60. And as mentioned, steam is generally aware of regional currency discrepancies.

And I would argue accepting or condoning pro-piracy attitudes is harmful in the long run versus accepting that one can't just take things that one wants, and paying for things when able.
Thank for tip towards Evekeo. The lower dextro seems promising. If you can tell (if it’s perceptible) to adderal XR / vyvanse / mydayis or some of the longer release that would be interesting. But will Google regardless :)
Reaction wheels can provide a surprising amount of control over balance: https://youtu.be/n_6p-1J551Y
Don’t be afraid to say it, the language was Rust wasn’t it? Although Rust usually replaces C or C++, so maybe in your case Go is more likely.

In all seriousness, seems odd that they were able to go so far down this road without anyone throwing up red flags.

It's a non-random sample. You can draw valid statistical conclusions from a surprisingly small random sample. You can draw bullshit conclusions from a surprisingly large non-random sample.
I spent the last couple hours reading this. It is heart-wrenching and infuriating. It is like the Stanford prison experiment on steroids, but with kids. My gut reaction is everyone involved, and everyone who knew even a single thing about this - including judges, police, social workers, government employees and of course staff - should be in prison. Unfortunately the reality is likely that no one is punished, or it is so meaningless (like fining a multi-millionaire $10k) that it's pointless.
When America built it's wealth (until 1909) the corporate tax rate was 0% [1]. Since soon after, the country has been cruising on thus accumulated wealth, while doing various experiments, redistributing that wealth to non-productives and now increasingly to outright parasites. Not much longer is left until the dollar collapses however.
The OP's point is very clearly "we could just parse C header files and do it all automatically", not "we could parse C header files and a bunch of extra handwritten metadata and then do the rest automatically". The latter point is certainly more defensible but it's not the point they made, and it's much weaker ... I mean of course if you add extra metadata you can generate whatever FFI glue you need. The devil is then in the details.
I think having to manually annotate C headers with extra type information starts to reduce the benefits of automatically generating FFI interfaces. Rust already has bindgen which goes pretty far.
There are two different things called Single System Image systems:

1. LISP machines, Smalltalk dev environments, etc. A modern example would be the DarkLang.

2. Distributed OS with process migration like MOSIX
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_system_image

The (1) are a good direction, but they're usually not distributed. I guess you're talking about (2) which was never properly implemented, or maybe they were problematic by design.

BTW, what do you think about Inferno and Plan9? They still have hobbyist communities around them, and some of their ideas influenced current mainstream SW like 9P protocol and GoLang channels.

I wonder if that’s weasel words for

“the majority of AWS workloads run single digit cpu utilisation, so a 50% performance hit is not a ‘meaningful performance impact’ for them”?
> And I did not even bother much with anti-spam, I chose a super easy filter in Thunderbird instead, sending everything with 'unknown' in Received: header to the Thrash folder.

I realise that everyone hates spammers, but having a "thrash" folder is a bit much, isn't it? ;)
My thoughts exactly. For somebody complaining that these tools don't exist because people are too lazy or whatever he himself is too lazy to do a quick google search to see that these tools do exist. I was using SWIG (http://www.swig.org/) 15+20 years ago to bind C/C++ to Perl and Java and it still exists. However your point above stands in that you have to annotate the headers with enough information about memory ownership to make it work.

The tone of the article also goes mad bigot when he starts whining about (AI) ( Aliens and immigrants ) taking our jobs for less money.
You have just given me flashbacks of using a keyboard in Italy to type in English.

"The reality is they’re all quite possible, but nobody makes money doing them."

The fact that he thinks they would take money implies that he believes they would be complex. Simple problems shouldn't cost much to fix.
I first learned about this cheese from a essay prompt while studying for the GREs. Grossed me out.
Same (19) BUT arguably if you need X, take more than X, then adjust to Y because of that unneeded “boost” it would sort of be a fair criticism.

But agree, can do all the above plus therapy and support / plan, and it’s not even comparable.

> The size of the final package is not very important

You can only install so many packages with this philosophy before size starts to be important after. More to the point, you can only run a few of them at a time, on machines with gigabytes of RAM. This is a profound embarrassment to our industry. If by "responsive" you're referring to input latency, Electron apps are at best on par with native, usually worse IME. If by "responsive" you mean accommodating different displays... it's a desktop app. Your statement about a "high quality framework" is basically orthogonal to reality, but I'd like to see you justify rating React "higher quality" than Qt5.
I agree. As long as paradoxes of competition exist the free market is just that, an ideal.

There are a lot of scenarios where selfish behavior is rational for the individual but only permissible for a minority but if literally everyone does the selfish behavior everyone loses more than if they had done nothing.
I'd add statistical reasoning and basic market economics to that list.
I agree that it's not a great analogy. However, the fact that copying technically has a "zero" cost, doesn't mean that we can just ignore the time, money, and effort spent by the people making that media. It's not literal theft but it does hurt the artists/creators in the long run.
Anecdotally I’ve worn a chest strap monitor and tracked HRV over several days at work. Much calmer.

> SpaceX is known for using less than ideal products during test phases and working in parallel for the improved/final versions

That works for building rockets one at a time. It works less so for mass producing consumer electronics. Lines cost a lot of money to set up, and economies of scale exist.
People don’t go full sheep mode. They just invest in an ecosystem, and don’t want to waste time looking for a new hammer.

Part of what has also kept Ruby lagging is also cultural. It’s not a language that was ever adopted by engineers but rather artists, and it took a while for these artist types to realize performance actually matters.

Python, on the other hand, always had an avid base of CS oriented folk that helped drive the language forward technically. Ruby instead only had Rails, which was a productivity marvel rather than a technical one.
Stayed in Canada too long.

It had always been in the back of my mind to move to the US for work but I never did due to not being confident enough.

I realized in my mid-30's that I was approaching a "now or never" scenario and finally made the move to the Bay Area. I really wish I had done it right away at the start of my career rather than spending time at small companies working on small projects.

I know it's better late than never but I know I would have been so much further along in my career by now had I followed my instincts.
If I enumerate your sub domains using Google or Cloudflare’s public dns servers, what unauthorised access took place? I don’t need to make an http(s) request to find out if a sub domain exists (except perhaps when you’re using wildcard sub domains).

And many Electron apps are not native on mobile, just use a web view, and share many resources with their Electron cousins. Same with the web apps.

As someone who has written multiple Qt and Java GUI apps, it always seems fine at first until your UI needs become more unique (and you're subclassing QWidget/JComponent) and you have to jump through hoops to get something a web view has (e.g. streaming video).

I don't like the lack of native any more than the next guy, but I can understand sacrificing native benefits for cohesion/features. If you can tolerate a middleground of non-native but no-browser-bloat, Flutter or .Net Maui may mature enough to help for the complex uses.
The alternative is private bodies that answer to nobody, or no regulators at all. The remedy to bad government should not be no government, it should be reform and oversight.
Until it's absolutely impossible, further research is necessary. Who knows? It could be a combination of things. Perhaps vaccines are not aggravating factors by themselves; maybe you also need to combine them with, I don't know, Tylenol or another pain killer.

Saying the equivalent of "the science is settled" is always not true because how could we possibly know all of the variables that matter. And in science, all factors matter.

If they're so easy and obvious, why hasn't the author done it, at least as a demo? The article also reeks of "this doesn't work for me, therefore it won't work for anyone" I doubt I'm the only one who absolutely does not concede that everything should have a GUI interface.

"Why does shit like DPDK exist?" I don't know, but I bet you could find out with a little investigation, which might make this sound more like a well-researched position and less like a tantrum.

> The advantage is that it gives a clean slate for approaches considered impractical when the books were written.

I'm not sure when that has ever worked out like that though. SpaceX built on a lot of existing aerospace knowledge. Tesla went through a lot of manufacturing hell trying to automate what turned out to be pretty unautomatable parts of manufacturing a car. As far as I know, whatever you think of the EV, the car manufacturing process Tesla has isn't uniquely good.
Did you just imply that we put the comments of C headers into our types?! Comments are lower than whitespace as far as the compiler should be sure.

As I'm sure you are aware https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen does basically what you want.

I'm actually quite curious where exactly rust-bindgen falls short in the eyes of the author. I'm not as familiar with the other FFI libraries the OP linked.
This kinda gives me chills because I can't help but think of Warhammer 40k.

Essentially our civilization progressed to the point where computers started to take more of a role in new discoveries much like in the real world. As computers got more powerfull and AI developed naturally scientific advancement sped up. But there came a point when the science and math became too advanced for humans to even comprehend, so computers did it. Then there came a point when things were so advanced that even scientists couldn't even ask the right questions so an AI intermediate would have to be used.

Then things get weird and you have the 40k universe.

Anyways I know I probably butchered it a little but that's the gist of it and I can totally see things progressing in the real world up to the point where things get weird in 40k.
You get 30 pills for 30 days. I can’t buy alcohol on Sunday morning either, and I get the personal freedom aspect, but it’s very predominantly used in children, CVS literally has one variant that’s just “methamphetamine” (a hilarious generic), so having some constraint seems reasonable.
This is still biased. I respect the effort but a bloomberg or Eikon terminal is the only thing that is going to give you a true "pulse" of the market. Otherwise these are all lagging indicators confounded by the biases of the news algorithm writer.

You could try to hook into DTN iQFeed or another source. For example, the reports from futures brokers tend to be up-to-the-minute in my experience. Trying to solve everything at once is just an example of engineers attempting to solve a problem they don't understand.

This is meant as no disrespect to you OP. I am just a small trader and spent a lot of time trading lots of commodities. Thousands of small companies have tried and failed. I remember subscribing briefly to a several hundred dollar per month service that gave me the live feed, undelayed, of the brokers on the floor of corn/soy. It's an extremely hard problem to solve and honestly is rife with deep covenants you won't be able to break without money and/or a seat on the exchange.

Good luck to you. Unfortunately with today's computer powered environments it's harder to get a "market pulse" without bias. If I am going to give you any feedback the fact I don't have to pay money for this feed already indicates to me it's probably not worth looking at. Could you try to work an angle with a squawk service or something and charge a sum to get it?

Traders that are serious, i.e. not anyone on robinhood/major broker, take this very seriously. You could make a lot of money by providing good news in a single niche or perhaps two if you have the motivation. Don't focus on the worthless robinhood traders. With a news feed service you need to focus on the guys who are hooked into clearing houses. Not fly-by-night or payment-for-orderflow exchanges. The pikers trading 10,000 or less will never pay for a service. The guys moving units with deals on certain exchanges will pay an _extremely_ high premium or good information.
