> There is very little political and culture war crap on it

That all depends on what kind of content you engage with. There is plenty of "political and culture war" type content on TikTok. You probably just don't see it.
Its basically shows similar content to the people that you follow.

I started following people from India and it will only show me content from India.

I unfollowed everyone, and started following indian people in USA, and it started showing me content from that.

I started following people in America, and it started showing me similar content.

It wouldn't show any new trends or new/different content.
The review you do when pairing isn't a proper review though. The point is to have someone who wasn't there during implementation look at it, while with pairing both people will have similar biases about the code.
Not side-by-side, but I open the pages in the first two tabs and cycle Cmd+1, Cmd+2 to see what moves.
It has been offensive in the US since the 90s. It just gets used anyway anytime there's some "anti-PC" movement, along with "gay" to mean "bad", the r word, sudden spikes in the use of "niggardly", and so on. Like those, its offensiveness does not come from offense taken by the person/thing it is proximately describing.
That's correct, that's why I said financial motivators don't matter _after_ you already have a comfortable life (your needs are satisfied). [1] and [6] both argue that rewards that aren't conditioned on performance (e.g. salary) don't detract from intrinsic motivation and that a competitive salary is a good motivator.
A time series database isn't keyed by day/month/year, it's typically keyed by monotonic timestamps.
It’s fairly well known that Amazon can only hire “mediocre” tech talent precisely due to their hostile work environment and relatively low pay. Top people go elsewhere.
I have tried ORMs in only 3 languages, they all sucked. It is not all fault of the language though - writing SQL in SQL feels natural, but writing SQL in PHP/Go etc feels just plain weird, no matter how well the ORM libraries are defined.

I also don't enjoy writing HTML in non-HTML languages - it just doesn't feel nice or natural.

This is before getting into the other problems (having to learn the libraries, the libraries generating inefficient SQL etc).

Maybe I am old and not hip, I dunno. Using ORMs is just annoying and unpleasant
Are we seriously discussing whether in practice, two people can be born on the same day?
You can disable seeing ads in settings though. if you choose to see ads however, the website doesn't get anything, you get crypto from it.

How is Robert C. Martin toxic? Reading the examples pointed above don't make him toxic (and making fun of "Uncle" makes the first article completely unreliable, not to mention the completely of the hook bit about police).

And even if he was toxic - mixing personality with articles should not take place ever. If you disagree with the articles write so, but don't attack personally.
It can happen at smaller scale in small companies, too. In my first serious job, when the CEO left after a merge his assistant/secretary was left behind but with nothing to do, and was forgotten. At some point someone realised that she had spent several months doing nothing but playing solitaire on her PC. She didn't complain because she was afraid to simply be fired, obviously.

If there is such a registry, it should be completely automated. It should be possible for the shell you use to observe all possible executables available on your path. The executable files should have some sort of "manifest" with information that the software developer can declare. That manifest could include version, company, and things like input and output MIME types.

The shell would be able to offer exact compatible autocomplete suggestions when constructing a pipe, so that only tools compatible with the MIME type output by the most recent tool in the pipeline are offered.
That's amazing and specific experience, very cool!

One thing I noticed at the top of the article was that they used the steam as a source of fresh water as well, did subs do this too, when you worked on them?
Bittorrent trackers by design have a list of all IPs in the swarm and give to anyone who asks (that's how peers coordinate).
>Are youtube shorts a failure? They seem to be immensely popular in terms of views/engagement.

I just think that's only because "the algorithm" prioritizes shorts at the moment to try and push them and make folks even bother making them. Once YouTube starts acting neutral towards them I don't think they'll hold up.

I've never come across a short intentionally and after seeing quite a few I haven't tried to find further ones (and outside of mobile it's quite difficult to do so).

That said of course, I'm probably not in the demographic shorts plays to either.
This is now how it used to work - which is why the OP uses “could” instead of “can” - see the linked article.
Whats more: "In addition to problems with the drinking water and environmental contamination, there were several recorded instances of crew radiation exposure, some resulting in injury. [7] During the plant operation, 223 reports of abnormal levels of radiation were recorded. [7] Of these cases, 14 resulted in injury and 123 resulted in exposure in the amount of 0.350 rem over a period of 7 days."

What was the nature of these injuries?
This was far more engaging of a story than it deserves to be
That article and the effect they are suggesting aren't in contradiction to the initial justification. There are two different arguments.

1. Individuals are more likely to act more violently if they already have two strikes against them. This leads to a measurable statistical increase in the violence perpetrated by individuals who have two strikes against them in jurisdictions where three strikes policies exist compared to individuals who have two comparable crimes on their records in jurisdictions where there are no such policies.

2. The overall amount of violent crime in jurisdictions with three strike policies is lower than comparable jurisdictions where there are no such policies.

I see no incompatibility with these premises. That is, both can be true simultaneously. In fact, the evidence provided in the article you linked seems to suggest just that.
Addiction treatment had failed. Could brain surgery save him?
Yep, if anything “LOW KEY” is probably a reference to Neil Gaiman's American Gods novel. https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Loki_(American_Gods)

That’s the thing about stuff in the public domain it shows up everywhere with multiple people independently making the same jokes.
Redbubble makes shirts. The product purchasable here isn't the design; it's a product matching the product worn by Disney's character in their comic, which appears to be an original design.

This is well within "lawyers will be paid a lot of money to argue the finer points" territory.
Because arbiters are used in communications among cores,

Sigh. If this were the case, all open source is doomed. You are responsible if you deploy/offer it, not if you only wrote it. And the point is, in smart contracts, you will not normally know who deployed it.

If you put on github

Return x>0;

And I deploy this in a production environment that kills people with heart rate over 0, do you have any responsibility? No of course not. I do. You have none.

In short: if you put money into something as smart contracts, the only thing you have, and that is literally the intention of the pundits, is that you check the contracts and trust or not trust them. I do not know how this crosses over to other software that has different properties in this thread. That is not relevant. There is no one to sue or say they did a bad job here: you will not know. That is baked in.
Well... There's a more serious first start browser comparison by netmeister.org [0] which shows that 4 downloads are made.

I downloaded and extracted the files. They look like helpers or partials for Brave internal extensions.

All of them include manifest files with their names:

- 1_0_14: "Brave HTTPS Everywhere Updater extension". Contains a 1MB ZIPped database of https domains.

- 1_0_21: "Brave NTP sponsored images component". Contains three photos (to display in their new tab probably).

- 1_0_22: "Brave Local Data Files Updater extension". Seems to contain whitelists and blacklists for extensions, autoplay, referers, trackers, etc.

- 1_0_498: "Brave Ad Block Updater extension". Contains a 2.4 MB filter list for their adblocker implementation.

Nothing seems to be harmful at all. This mechanism is used by almost all Chrome/Chromium based browsers to update their internal extensions and components.

But, if the poster cares about backdoors... Well, every major browser out there has features that could be used to backdoor their users like Firefox Telemetry Experiments (which download xpi files) and Chrome Components. They also can change properties at will unless its disabled (via flags, about:config, recompiling, etc).

Note: I'm a Vivaldi and Chromium user. I only use Brave with iOS which is kind of a different beast (since everything has to be implemented on top of iOS provided WebKit) since it somehow blocks ads better than stock Safari with AdGuard filters. For stuff like banking (on iOS) I use Safari.

Note 2: Blink and WebKit have deviated quite dramatically so they are indeed different browser engines (like Gecko is) with different implementations, quirks and bugs.

This is a great time to start testing the new features of .NET. Anyways, I can't get enough creating new desktop apps on win forms.
In reality probably not no, but the reporting around everything has been somewhat histerical.

Thanks! Yes, that explains it well.
Can you think of any good use case for a non-arbitrary primary key? You are right that first name + last name + dob is not a good way to design the system. For example someone could differentiate their twin children only by their middle name. So, what's an example of a non-integer non-arbitrary primary key?
While I feel strongly about the opinion, I think this is a good thing. As a worker, I’d much prefer a clear message like this so that I know what is expected so I can act and choose whether this fits with me than a let’s try this and see how it works approach, that muddies the waters and leads to fear and confusion.
Public urged to stop feeding birds as scientists hunt cause of bird ailment
Another painful and predictible chapter in the world of the internet.

1) Does Disney have a claim? Maybe, maybe not.
2) Should redbubble have removed it? Maybe, maybe not.
3) Should the OP take legal action? Maybe, maybe not
4) Do most people know the different between patent, trademark and copyright? Maybe, probably not.

The main problem here imho is the use of the middle-man, redbubble. That way you have close to zero protection from whatever they think is legally appropriate regardless of whether Disney would win in Court. If you host your own content then your risk appetite is entirely your own, although you would probably still lose in Court because money buys smart legal teams (usually).

Still stinks of bullying though.
Well, perfview, for one. I have to keep a Windows VM nearby just for that thing. It doesn't come in handy every day, but is absolutely indispensable when it does. They have a shitty Linux port which basically doesn't work and receives almost no development.

I should also add that you /can/ dump a dotnet application running under Linux. It's just you can't do anything really useful with it, the best tooling is Windows-only. Clearly shows you their priorities.

> it goes against my belief that software engineers should be fungible, while subject matter experts are not easily fungible.

This implies that software engineers either aren’t SMEs, or that they are exclusively so in an undifferentiated way in the domain of “software engineering”.

IME, that’s doubly untrue: software engineering is a broad domain, and software engineers do not have interchangeable competence in that domain, but also software engineers tend to become SMEs in the application domain(s) in which they work, and this is important to their value as software engineers in those domains.
Sure, the inverse square law applies to smells as well.
What's interesting that you see this come up in places in cinematic period pieces like Takeshi Kitano's Zatoichi remake, Oliver Stone's Alexander, the shows _Rome_ and _Spartacus_ on HBO. We _should_ have seen this in Zack Snyder's _300_ as well (Spartans allowed for same-sex relations in older/younger male mentorships in their warrior-aristocracy training, much of the lifestyles of Spartan citizens would be prohibited from being depicted) but that movie chose to be a historically inaccurate Triump of the Will of the straightest of straight male masculinity.
Turning a compost pile takes very little energy. So little in fact that a human can do it with one hand in a minute. Leave the container in the sun for heat, and turn it on an axle. In addition it's only once a day at most.

Heat in the winter would be less than the amount used for those electric blankets. In the summer you could almost power the composter with a car battery.

Cremation takes a about 40 kilowatt hours of electricity or fuel. The process usually requires very expensive furnaces that can get hot enough. In addition it requires special permits and there are a lot of regulations and zoning limitations.

However, 40 kwh isn't that much compared to steel and concrete production. Especially since the per capita is literally 40kwh. Most people use more than that to brush their teeth. The real advantage (of composting) is that it makes a cheaper alternative for families of deceased.
I don’t advocate for deflation there’s a reason why we have targeted inflation I was just clarifying that deflation doesn’t make cash lose money (except for in the meta way you’ve described) while inflation does.

>If performance is subjective (# of tickets, "impact", cut of your jib, etc) and at times applied arbitrarily by a manager, would applying such a flawed assessment to the detriment of someone's career, livelihood, and personal happiness, not also be cruel?

Through this lens, everything in life is cruel.
It’s probably even worse than that because I’d be willing to wager that no smart company wants to risk litigation against one of the biggest companies in the world. Disney doesn’t even need to threaten them because it’s clear that Disney can bury most companies in legal fees. Unless selling “Low Key Loki” is critical to their business it’s just not worth the risk.
"The trial included 72 hospitalized patients in Dhaka, Bangladesh..."

So an N=72 trial. Although the title includes the word "may", I think publicizing this is a big mistake. Really really needs corroboration.
If you're writing Java, you're going to use IntelliJ (unless you're a masochist). Conversely, if you're writing C#, you'll want to use Rider.

Rider is better than Visual Studio at the moment; we'll see what happens if they actually get VS 2022 cut over to be 64-bit, maybe the performance will be back to usable for medium-large solutions.
"Using C and C++ is bad for society, bad for your reputation, and it's bad for your customers."
Yes because then people have 3 different way of doing the same thing.

Maybe, another scam with renting offices to Morgan Stanley.
>the cruelty is the point.

I just don't get this part. On an intellectual level the point they just got done making is that cruelty is not the point. It's a byproduct of the system. The "point" of the whole thing is having a motivated and efficient workforce, at almost any cost. This is arguably evil and immoral, but it's not the case that the ultimate aim of the policies is to be cruel. I guess the author just included it because they're very emotional about it and want me to be emotional about it too?

Tree Style Tabs has been pretty limited since the port to WebExtensions. It can no longer take the place of the existing tab bar, and instead sits alongside it unless you do some Firefox profile CSS trickery that I never got working properly. Mozilla was considering adding a "hide tab bar" feature but I think they abandoned that.
When I say 'value adding', I don't mean that everyone is happy with their business practices, just that they are actually doing something.
Genetic claims play a role in that you can see in which direction certain genes flowed, and how old they are, and how they’re distributed. See eg: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QoGmPJJS3X8

That's interesting - at least from what I've seen they've been able to lowball folks (relatively) and still get hires in.

Given that they can only hire mediocre tech talent, this speaks to perhaps the success of the HR management that they were able to build what looks like a market leading offering in AWS (the scale of which is absolutely huge - all built by these mediocre engineer!)
Try heroin first. It's easier to quit.
That was a pretty rapid shift from "Comcast isn't doing anything to your DNS" to "So what if they are? There are times when they should!"
You need to be okay with losing X% of employees because they're going to quit for their own reasons, or they're going to be hit by a bus, or want to change jobs internally.

This doesn't mean that you push them out, but rather that you make sure more than one person knows how everything works.
If you can't tell it was a comic reference without the creator specifically saying so, is it really "trading on the name of the character"?
Do you help and provide insight into taxes and potential tax savings? I recently learned that the wash rule doesn’t apply to crypto and it’s tips like that and how to effectively apply them that can provide immense value.

Also, it doesn’t look like you support BlockFi? Any plans to support them? Their reporting is mostly monthly pdf statements which I have to manually keep track of in spreadsheets.

Wash rule example. Let’s say in 2021 so far you crushed meme stocks and have a capital gains profit of $100k. Not so rockstar, you bought a large chuck of bitcoin at the top at $60,000. You can sell the bitcoin for a loss (wiping away the capital gains tax from the meme stocks) and then immediately buy back into Bitcoin. Yes, you pay fees or exchange premium, but worth it.
But that's not the right way to evaluate political energy on any topic. Instead that office will likely tap into party mechanisms and systematically test voter messages until they find the right one.

For what it's worth, and to try and balance the scales here, I'm of the opinion that:

1) you were 100% in the right to point out that Uncle Bob is a problematic figure

2) promoting his work while ignoring 1) is, in fact, a political act as you pointed out

3) you expressed these views very tactfully and clearly (to my eye as a native English speaker - I wouldn't have known it was a second language for you had you not mentioned it)

4) based on this thread and the post you made on Reddit, there was no call whatsoever for you to "shove it up your ass" or be called toxic or anything of the sort

From where I sit, you were in the right and you remain in the right.
Aerobic bacteria in composters can eat bone, egg shells, and meat pretty well. If you are going to do it in a garden though you will want something to contain the smell and prevent breeding of pests.

I’ve never heard of the product prior to this so I did a HN/Algolia search and skimmed through the comments on the various HN posts (after reading the submitted article and the original announcement) and I think that what it shows is that for at least some of the commenters based on what they were asking/saying provides a reasonably enlightening overview of what the “average HN’er” felt.

None in particular stood out enough to provide as an illustration but I certainly detected a general tone of confusion.

I must confess that after reading the original announcement I was still none the wiser until well past the 3/4 page mark and by that point my eyes had glazed over slightly. That might be more to do with that Kubernetes isn't something I use so possibly for someone that did have an active interest in the topic may have had their interest/curiosity piqued earlier enough in the release announcement to reach the ‘reveal’.

All of the above is obviously a personal opninion so is entirely subjective.
