If you are interested in tech, but want to go a more Linux/sysadmin route vs programming, then there are definitely avenues to get a foot in the tech door that don’t require a degree, or really necessarily, any certs either. You do kinda have to really want it and love it more than the average other person though.

A datacenter or hosting NOC (*nix oriented if at all possible; most NOC tech roles will be heavily Linux) Technician can be a fairly easy in, and has the potential to take you down a good career path. The great part about this particular entry level (usually) role, vs some other entry level IT role, is that you will learn a broad swath of internet/networking/linux/DNS/hosting/
security fundamentals that can easily jumpstart you into whatever specific tech path that you discover that you are most interested. After some experience and finding that out, you can then more fine-tune what your next job/role/tech path will/should be and look like.

Good luck and I wish you the very best! Stay positive and interested and it’s going to be fine!
That hasn't been my experience and I own quite a few of their books.
Pure sampling profiles are less helpful when solving latency rather than throughput problems, especially so for rare (e.g. p99) latency spikes.

This. I also wished we learned more about this in my CS degree college classes. Luckily, there is pretty good podcast series that helped me structure team leadership, management and other non technical skills. It is called: Manager tools.
Here is the list of all topics on politics [1] with intro to 101 series saying this:
"Your organization is MUCH more political than most of us realize. For those who know it's political, some say, I'm not going to play that game. Either state of being - not seeing the politics, or ignoring them, is unfortunate. Professional Life is HUMAN life, and that means it's emotional, and therefore political. Engineers, software designers, technical people take note: hate those marketing and sales people all you want, but they're gonna end up being your boss unless you recognize the value of political, or put differently, non-rational, decision making."

I highly recommend this series at least.

I don't know if he still has ownership.

When in doubt, I'd rather not fund this.
HN's search feature leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to comments. Perhaps some variation of "replacement conspiracy theory".
> but it is a trusted third party (e.g. Google, rather than a random app developer).

I'd trust a random app developer way more than an ad company whose data processing consent flow is intentionally annoying and still does not comply with the GDPR.

You should have the balls to stand up for your beliefs, and you admit you hide behind dog whistles, so why keep hiding. You hide your reasons behind the cloak. Again, its doesn't matter, I have a good idea on your defining characteristic, its been the whispered excuse for 50-60 years as to why the scores low on education or health. I've been around plenty of people who don't have any qualms about removing the cloak, and your arguments are exactly the same.
I contribute to CIRCT, so I feel like I should chime in here. I personally hope that it can provide exactly the kind of unifying IRs we are all hoping for in the open-source community. The fact that the tools are implemented in C++ may be a win for some, but I think the CIRCT project is compelling for much deeper reasons. The README states the ambition clearly:

> By working together, we hope that we can build a new center of gravity to draw contributions from the small (but enthusiastic!) community of people who work on open hardware tooling.

There are weekly community meetings that are open to the public, and we have guest speakers from all sorts of interesting projects in the open-source community. Many of those are leading to collaborations and contributions to CIRCT.

There hasn't been much (any?) discussion of CIRCT on HN, but rather than present the reasons I think it's so great here, I'll point to a talk[1] I gave earlier this year and a much better talk[2] Chris Lattner gave shortly thereafter, both of which lead up to the "Why CIRCT?" question in the second half.

Looking back at that SymbiFlow thread, I see familiar faces that are now actively contributing to CIRCT. There are mentions of many different hardware IRs in some of the posts, but at least three have first-class support in CIRCT today: FIRRTL[3], LLHD[4], and Calyx[5]. This is all very recent and experimental, but I would say the results are already promising.

> This isn't about Snell, this isn't about being AS GOOD AS a full-face helmet. It's about being better then a cotton(?) fabric turban. It's about respecting a persons choice of religion.

My understanding was that the religious obligation for Sikhs was to keep their hair covered. Does this necessarily require a cloth turban? This seems like a case where Sikhs could take a page out of Orthodox Jews' book and do some creative interpretation of what defines a turban, rather than try to turn a turban into an inferior helmet.
A different perspective always helps. I know someone who had issues focusing and deferring gratification, she’s doing better now. I am not diagnosing and this is just a random example where therapy helped... bTW, my dad retired without knowing what he “really” wanted to do...
Yeah, it's almost an indictment of LA.

I know there's a pier, but I'm not sure if there's one pier or a lot of them. I know about the concrete river, and the Hollywood sign, and that's about it.

I've had mixed results with Packt and Apress (quite a few typos in Packt). Pragmatic, Manning, and No Starch have all been pretty good, as has O'Reilly.
We have something similar to that at Singlestore (formerly memsql). We support secondary keys and compression schemes that are incremental so you can decompress a few rows out of our columnstore without needing to decompressing the data for other rows stored near by like a traditional columnstore (Redshift, snowflake, etc). We call this subsegment access [1].

I don't know you of course, but I think it could be good for you to talk to a doctor about depression.
i dont believe that this complaint is valid unless the project itself provides no prototypical training data. if we produce a 3d gun design and someone asks for the 3d printing spools, are we gonna tell the design maker that its not trully open?

so unless someone tells me this repo provides no bootstrap training data, this is more a choosy beggar.
Thanks for clarifying, I was under the (false) impression that Chisel was used for HLS. I know of a few companies working with SystemC and UVM-ML to accelerate verification. Having closer ties between design and verif becomes absolutely essential when you’re flow is accelerated.

I’ve personally used HLS C++, GTest and UVM. It’s pretty effective but there’s definitely room for improvement.
Life is long. I remember when I was finishing primary school there was a lot of emphasis at the time on figuring out what you were going to do career wise. At the time I lived near an old blacksmith I used to visit regularly, he looked exactly how you would imagine a blacksmith to look, long grey beard, always covered in ash, a quietly spoken Vietnam war veteran, he had an awesome studio forge where he worked on commissions. Anyway I remember he said not to worry about it too much he didn't work out what he wanted to do until he was almost 60 year old.

A number of years later one of the developers I worked with had many careers before working as a programmer, he cleaned power plant reactors, lived in Africa as an aid-worked, before eventually settling down and learning to code at around 50 years old. He was a fantastic developer because of his life experience not in spite of it, and moreover a great team member because he could provide some much needed perspective.
It is a good strategy that has worked historically. Sugarcoat your real goal with some humanitarian bs and then have the best talent of the world working for you.
Whatever telemetry GitHub collects is probably the least interesting stuff they have on me. What's way more revealing about me as a person is all the stuff that GitHub is collecting and storing about me because storing that information is exactly what GitHub is for: code I've written, interactions with people in issue discussions, billing information related to my account, projects I've starred, etc.

Yes, they probably also know that I usually connect from an IP address in Chicago. And, while storing that information isn't strictly necessary, I'm also more-or-less 100% confident in saying that anyone who might want to keep tabs on me already knows I live in Chicago, and that would have been true 30 years ago, too. (Well, 30 years ago it was another town, but still.)

I suppose a lot of this is maybe just a halo effect due to all the (quite legitimate) upset about surveillance capitalism? Which is fair. And perhaps we want to say that it's easier to try and shut down all telemetry than it is to distinguish legitimate telemetry from abusive telemetry. Lord knows, if we try to carve out any concept of legitimate telemetry, adtech companies will immediately go about probing it for loopholes.
Does the statute of limitations get you off owing the tax due today as well?
I also posted this under another comment, but I feel it has value on its own.

Developers, Stay Away from Corporations That Want You to Lie for Them
The longer I am around the more I realize that pretty much every knowledge worker field or creative field is just about having a rocking public portfolio and passing the van/line/airport test: "Would you want to be stuck in a van/line/airport with this person? Are they respectful and nice?" You can break into a surprising number of industries with time, a good heart, and work samples.
Obnoxious but serious question: are you living in your parents' house?

If not, move along, nothing to see here. (read the other comments about getting professional help, therapy, etc).

If you are, consider if you're just being complacent because you can be. Make a goal for yourself to move out within 6 months. Figure out what you need to do to live on your own, without free room and board to fall back on. And then stick to it.

Don't get me wrong, living in a rent-free or otherwise low-cost situation can be really beneficial, especially if you're paying off debt or saving for your own place. But it can also be a crutch that you lean on and prevents you from figuring out what you are going to do with your life.

Otherwise, create for yourself conditions where you can't be slothful. If you're in the US, walk one of the 3 Great Hikes. Travel through Europe (next year maybe). Join the Peace Corps. Get a volunteer job on an educational ship (e.g, the Lady Washington). These might be "dangerous", but don't underestimate the danger of being depressed at home.

Don't think that a job in tech will be any different from the others. At the end of the day it's still a job that you may like or not.
The problem is only the more informed and better educated people take news slowly and form opinions slowly. But the masses are on these social platforms getting influenced by hot takes, and then they go vote with their poorly informed but strongly held opinions. This ends up affecting the rest of us who prefer taking in non-extremist long form information, since our society is effectively controlled by those engaging in social media. So it feels like we too are forced to engage in these terribly designed social media platforms in order to not lose our [political voice / country / whatever]. In a way, the existence of these social platforms with huge user bases and network effects drastically reduces the value of traditional media. What’s the point of keeping myself informed if only what happens in social media changes my world?
Your claim is fundamentally "It's logistically easier to attack software, so such attacks will happen more often".

This is absolutely true, but it's also proportionally easier to defend software. It's insanely easy to test whether your software is vulnerable to SQL injection, it's not particularly easy to test whether your building can be destroyed with explosives.

Combine that with the fact that just about every piece of consumer software on the planet has a laundry list of bugs that don't require malicious intent to reproduce, and I find it very hard to accept that reasoning for software developers absconding responsibility.
Its useful to understand where you are on the totem pole.

You may come from a background where “college” was a given, or a background where college was quite a dramatic feat as nobody else in your family had done it before, but either way while they are praising you its important for you to know the limits of the “any college” experience early on
This isn't about software so I'm not sure "open source" is even the right terminology, but if it is then no it's not open source by any common definition. For example the open source initiative defines open source in a way that requires allowing commercial use: https://opensource.org/faq#commercial

I am right there with ya bud... I am 26, make ridiculous money and usually play video games or binge TV shows to get away from reality.

I dont have any helpful advise, just can share some things that have worked well in my case...

- 1, I would say try making a change... I know youre married, so it might be a bit harder but change cities. Usually when I go this my mood stays elevated for around a month, I have changed 7 cities in the last 7 years moving again next month. I am assuming your job is also remote- if so, I would highly reccomend taking on the "Gypsy" lifestyle just AirBnb from city to city every couple of months... Its not a long term fix but definitely a good short term fix in my case.

I am also a big gamer... the good part is beginning October, there are going to be some amazing launches. Horizon Forbidden west, FarCry 6 and many others... that will also keep you occupied for a couple of months..

Since your married, talk to your wife/husband/significant other- maybe a trip migth be in store?

Also, I dont have one personally- but if your a dog person- Go get a dog! for real- they are happiness machines..

I am not on any medicines but do have a bad addiction to nicotine (I vape) and eat crappy food...

Also- again I have no personal experience- but try meeting a therapist...
Its insane to still see massive tech campuses being built given the housing shortage.
I've worked as a software developer for smaller non-software companies (manufacturing more recently). I make half of what FAANG pays (still well compensated though) and I used to feel bad about it. But recently I've started to think that maybe not unravelling the fabric of society is worth something?

My customers (machine operators) are right outside my door. I can cut the time it takes to process a production order, the code ships by the end of the week, and I can go out on the floor and get feedback whenever I want. I generally only work on stuff that improves the primary business of the company, so there's very little "garbage" being built.
But unlike a server, a desktop app isn't vulnerable to any of those issues that would require logs to defend against.
Not to put transfer.sh down - it's very useful in many situations, I'm sure! - but I just run a permanent webserver on all the machines I want to share files from. I discuss this more in http://catern.com/computers.html

I find that's a very easy approach.
what they should do is take the top 10% of bullshitters and see if they rate each other with a similar outcome as a randomize group
Very interesting solution to the problem. Pretty much everyone has their $PS1 set to show the current working directory, because the desire to know the implicit context of our commands ($PWD) has existed since the dawn of computing. Since then, we've added a lot of commands that have an implicit context, but we haven't updated our tooling to support them. That's a big problem, but I like your solution -- make the kubernetes context depend on the working directory, which your shell already prints out for you before every command.

(If I were redoing this all from scratch, I would just have my interactive terminal show some status-information above the command after I typed "kubectl "; the context, etc. That way, you know at a glance, and you don't have to tie yourself to the filesystem. And, this could all be recorded in the history, perhaps with a versioned snapshot of the full configuration, so that when this shows up in your history 6 weeks later, you know exactly what you were doing.)

With that in mind, I do feel like the concept of an "environment" has been neglected by UI designers. I never know if I'm on production, staging, private preview, or what; either for my own software, or for other people's software. (For my own, I use "dark reader" and put staging in dark mode and production in unmodified mode. Sure confuses people when I share my screen or file bug reports, though. And, this only works if you have exactly two environments, which is fewer than I actually have. Sigh!)

So? I said Tony would not like it listed as an achievement. I never said the OP listed null as an achievement (Which is True).

Let's not get too pedantic. The way I said it obviously implies that the OP listed null as an achievement. Similar to how the OP listing null alongside an achievement can imply it's an achievement.
It's so sad that he burnt most of his notebooks and only two remain :(
The best code is the code that doesn’t need to be read at all. This takes a lot of skill in abstraction.

For example code a “user data cache” with lots of user concerns and people will be reading that code a lot.

Code a “generic cache” and test the hell out of it and it’ll never need to be read (or rarely)

There will need to be code that deals with users but it can interact with the cache so where business logic ends and caching begins is obvious.

Then repeat: how can you split the user code up into generic concepts? Users vs. roles vs. credentials?

I’m not sure that would have the effect you have in mind. It’s kind of complicated if you’re a country that is losing population to emigration. Yes, remittance payments come in. But brain drain is a big problem, and most countries facing it try to stop it however they can. So, fire up a coal plant and nobody can get visas out? Seems like that could backfire.
You don’t, you just purchase the shares directly while they are a low price.

But this isn’t really so complicated, a Roth IRA can own normal options, an options contract can be for anything, you just need someone to sell it to you and you need enough capital in the roth to exercise it.
I don't know, but I'm sure the argument is that the initial transaction can't be examined any more, and the subsequent transactions were all perfectly valid.

In my opinion, the entire IRA should be considered tainted and have taxes owed on all gains since 1999.

There could also be the argument that this constitutes tax fraud (depending on whether or not the $0.001 price was significantly under the market price that investors were offered at the same time), which as far as I know means the statute of limitations doesn't apply.
