I've done a full circle on this one and arrived at -- it depends on the team. Specifically, if you have teammates who know the purpose of these frameworks and all their parts, they might do well with a leaner library based approach. But i've met many devs now -- some much stronger in general than myself -- who I later realized don't actually know why these things exist. So they go without a validation or jobs layer from the start, and then we have to do a bunch of refactoring after a few months. My sniff test is to ask people about ORMs. If the person dislikes ORMs because "I know SQL, I don't need help with it" -- they probably don't know that ORM's _mostly_ exist to provide the common abstractions over SQL you'll inevitably need (or make) in a business logic heavy web app. A more experienced (with web frameworks) dev should use (or not) an ORM for more thoughtful reasons than "I know SQL" or "I used X and it sucked so I'd rather use nothing".

In short I generally agree, but I think some teams (in some contexts) can thoughtfully choose a more lightweight approach.

Well, I'm not in the Bay Area, I work out of Google Waterloo. So your experience might just be saying something about how crappy it is working in an office in the Valley.

I've personally never much enjoyed my trips to the Googleplex. :-) I like my own office much more.

'go install pkg@version' will error on replace directives rather then ignore.

I fought hard in the github issues to make go install error on replace as a compromise to ignoreing it which creates two subtly different build modes! Also by erroring we leave open the possibility to eventually change it to build correctly with the replace directives without breakage.

Add your voice that @version cmds should respect all replace directives that they reasonably can!

Absolutely, that’s why I tried to frame it as high to most but not everyone.

In regards to being cheaper to buy than to build, that’s certainly possible. Depends on your skillset.

>> Modern platforms want to own the entire stack top to bottom (editing tools, playback engine, discovery, and marketplace), but trying to capture so much value yourself and tightly controlling the environment can actually stunt the ecosystem.

If anything, I see modern platforms using more off-the-shelf and standards based tech rather than reinventing the wheel. It used to be the case that you'd have to download not just Flash, but Shockwave, Silverlight, the Java applet plugin, Unity Web Player, and all sorts of proprietary plugins just to play games built on whatever proprietary game engine and scripting language came with it. It was like downloading individual video codecs in the early 90's before the advent of Quicktime. Nowadays, you can play fully fledged 3-D games on a Web Application built with any game engine, any language, on nearly any browser of your choosing. No plugins needed. I don't think web games are going to be siloed to particular platforms any time soon.
What I do think is that web games are now competing with siloed AAA games. And this might be a good thing overall for competition in that space. For a long time Flash and mobile games were also-rans simply because of the limited computing power. Very few were of such caliber either in graphics or playability as to compete with contemporary installable or console games and were very often mimicries of those very same games. In the West, mobile games underwent a revolution with Angry Birds and Infinity Blade, there hasn't been a killer app that's reinvigorated the browser game craze of the Y2K era just yet. But Epic's interest in itch.io might be hinting at an attempt in that direction.
for me they feed each other in a sinister feedback loop... burnout makes me incapable of doing my job, which makes me feel worthless, which makes me feel depressed, which makes me unable to do anything, which makes me more incapable of doing my job, etc.

In Android 9, hiding the notch would black out the screen around the notch but put the status icons on the same level as the notch [0]. In 10, hiding the notch just drops the top of the screen below the notch and pushes the status icons down [1], essentially throwing away 1/4" of screen real estate.

It's more that I don't think it's the damn business of any private, nameless entity to scrape my social media posts and collect them in a secret database. I signed up for _Facebook_ and their privacy policy, not for anonymous people who can affect me in the real world without due process to save all of my posts and harvest information about me from them. And then link it to all of my profiles from LinkedIn and elsewhere across the internet into one central database they can sell people and my insurance company, because make no mistake that's what they do.
This is why I'm partway through switching from Android to Apple as I replace devices. I could go with Android devices more likely to have third-party ROM support, but if I'm going to be concerned about security and patching why should I trust a pseudonymous person on a website forum to run my device?

As more security-related features get added in Android is also losing some of its differentiating abilities - e.g. wifi scanning isn't possible on iOS, but I think it's also been getting more restricted on Android in the last couple releases. That and the must-use-our-webkit browser restrictions on iOS are the only things that that have really annoyed me on iOS.

Ask HN: Landing page vs. GitHub repo, where to link in Y Combinator Show?
I have an open-source project, and I want to show it on YCombinator, but I'm still unsure of the link to refer to the project.
The project is a cross-platform App, used by developers.
There are two options:

GitHub Repository: Here, there is the detailed documentation of the project and the code in which the people can look at the project profoundly and then go to the Website to download the last version of the App.

Landing Page: Here, there are the benefits the open-source project grants to the Developers using it, and there is a direct link to download it.

I see a downside for both options: if I link to the Landing Page, it can seem more a "Marketing" strategy than a way to engage our community and share an open-source project I'm working on.

If I refer to the GitHub repository, users need to go to the Website to download the project because releases have been moved to the Website.

Which is the best option?

Clickbait stub article. You aren't "quitting" by laterally moving from one slave job for an employer into another one remotely. Now, you're just enslaved in your own home! I've been working remotely for nearly 2 years now and work FAR more lately from home than the office. Quitting, the way that all these articles are making it sound would be changing your way of life. Quitting an office dev job to start working for another employer with deadlines and the same dev work from home really isn't quitting and it's just moving laterally into the same job.

Even if a bias is “correct” at the population level, using it to make decisions regarding individuals is unjust and prone to be wrong.

Example: men are known to commit the vast majority of violent crimes. But using that statistic to convict someone, deny them a job etc. would be inappropriate.
Per the US government (BLS), the median household has the ability to save about $1,000 per month without changing how much they spend on ordinary costs of living. So not everyone can but most people can if they choose to. Of course, Americans are notoriously poor savers, which is the bigger culprit.
The goals of ashes of creation are relatively modest though. It is basically a regular mmorpg but with a few different game design decisions. Many of the features looks big at a glance but when inspected further you realise that they don't do that much. Games with fully player built towns, sieges and destruction already exists, you just take one of those and add some pre crafted buildings to towns, and so on.

Still, making everything required for a regular mmorpg takes a lot of time and effort and most doesn't deliver a quality product, so it is still very likely it wont be great.

Sure, but that's a completely different setting than the one the OP described: mass testing for presence of cancers by non-specialist labs. And that's the thing that triggered my response. The outcome of such an approach could easily be a negative one.

FWIW I too have some experience with medical diagnostic systems (specifically: cancer testing), and one of the main reasons why I'm still skeptical about this test is that for many cancer types tested for the base rate is much lower than the false positive rate.

- I can attach a BT keyboard and do my journaling on an eyestrain-free screen. Amazon would tell me to buy a Kindle Fire if I described that use case to them.

I bought the Note Air over the Kobo Elipsa, even though it was more expensive, and didn't have domestic warranty support like the Kobo would. Why? Because Kobo only has Dropbox and Pocket integration, and supports only their own bookstore for DRM'd titles. If you have purchases saved to your Kindle account, you are SOL.

Sure, I'm in WNY right now, planning to move to Knoxville or Memphis this year. Not super frugal in general, but I save about half my paycheck, wife invests most of hers. We have a house, two cars (only one of them is "nice"), and no kids. We own a house in the suburbs, bought it almost a year ago and have been fixing it up since.

Renting is pound-for-pound far more expensive than owning. We couldn't find an apartment we liked within our budget, so we bought a starter home instead. Owning also lets us recoup value when we sell. Buying an expensive house isn't something we want to do, so there's no need for us to pay $2500 a month for a McMansion with a quarter acre of golf course outside.

I don’t know how to frame this well and I apologize in advance.

But I think this idea of “oh wow burnout is real I’m so woke” is a privileged person problem. I don’t mean that burnout is a first world problem, but that this “Burnout is real” is.

I struggle to put my head in a place where I can be amazed that burnout is real and that I have to warn others of this “thing” as if it’s not part of millions of people’s lives all around. You must have had a really really privileged life to not have seen that someone who couldn’t afford college and took whatever job they could get without a degree has probably been burnt out for a long time. Or that maybe that lady working retail at Marshall’s is burnt out too, but they don’t have a choice. They are not going to be able to take a year off, or go do their hobby. They probably don’t even have money for a hobby.

To tell these people “Guys, guys, burnout is real! I saw it!” gets me to roll my eyes a little.

I understand most readers here are in tech and well paid and perhaps in that same position, but I had to point this out to share some perspective.
I think it is interesting to see how much people want the dream of a game, the evolving story, and the community. It is a great example of the things people want from gaming-- and life I guess.

The closest thing I can think of is Minecraft, which IMO is a 100x better game but still you can't play it forever. People loved the creativity of it, but even more they liked the idea and the story of the creativity. How many times did you see in a feed that some kid made a computer in minecraft, a display, a life size battleship or tv spaceship. I am sure people see those stories-- think I could do something like that-- and go back to the game. The dream informs the play.

I do empathise with people in that bind - it's hard to know if a job paying much less will actually be significantly less stressful - big gamble to make with lots at stake. Affordable areas generally have fewer jobs - just moving somewhere more affordable isn't a trivial thing to do and there are overhead costs in moving house so you need to downsize considerably.
The descriptions of the biometric technology I've heard that is deployed in Xinjiang truly sounds like a science fiction.

>And unless you think a nationwide ad campaign is more feasible

On a tangent, I wonder what the response rate of Facebook's nationwide ad campaign looks like. Not really sure what the point of Facebook's campaign is, but it's a really lame ass commercial. I hope they are paying above market rate for it too. Any laws being passed to regulate Facebook would immediately be suspicious to me wondering how much FB spent to write said legislation. Just like when the rules regulating TV owners could only own a certain percentage didn't make anyone actually sell anything. So many pieces of legislation are like this. I don't see "Don't be evil on the interwebs" regulations being any different. Maybe I'm cynical, maybe I'm too pessimistic, but it's not like I'm grabbing my hesitancy from air.
This is the worst case scenario.
I have an issue with the author calling it an 'investment' mindset. This is what consultants as part of their job. Taking their underlying assets (skills, network) and providing services to customers seeking these skillsets.

Calling it an investment mindset misses the actual point, that is most people when they talk about investment are mostly referring to things like - real estate, the stock market where they don't have to spend significant time doing that activity. One of the things I'm interested in knowing, is this something the author is doing full-time or is he does to support his other full-time activity? Some data about the revenue the author is making would be helpful.
