Author of the post here: what you say about pulling yourself away and recovering really resonates with me.

What I'm working on is absolutely a factor in my interest, and how much energy I'm able to give- equally, how much the work pulls me in.

But I've noticed I increasingly work in ebbs and flows, probably as I become more aware of my energy levels and how I want to commit my time. It doesn't help that my calendar has become terrible for engineering work over the last year, and I actively schedule weeks of "get properly involved in the building" alongside all the other responsibilities my role entails.

Personally, I find the flexibility to distance yourself like this is really important. It helps me recover my energy and make sure I'm properly there when it matters.

On this note, I think you might have found your smoking gun. This is hard enough by itself, but alongside all those others changes- I hope you're holding up!

Zoom does seem to be a piece of crap, but it lets you use the browser which seems to be less bad on linux. At my work we all use google meets and only zoom for some external customers, the experience seems to be much worse with zoom in general regardless of the OS - that said it seems to work ok on Linux in the browser - once you actually get into the meeting, that's the hardest and worst UX experience ever (getting into the meeting).

I haven't used HiDPI monitors on linux yet, being able to use linux easily is more important to me for dev, it's a known area of weakness, and I just don't need the extra pixels for dev so it's easier to just avoid it. If you are doing graphics linux is probably not the best OS for the job tbh, and that's a shame but just the way it is currently.

> Zoom is just a single example, but there are just so many paper cuts if you want to work outside a solo developer context.

I suppose it depends upon how much crap software the workplace forces upon their workers, I understand that it's often mandatory to use a bunch of proprietary software for various types of communication and management stuff.. i.e stuff that's not central to actual dev work. If you can get away with a browser, then it's not bad at all... and when there is an option for a native version, use the browser, because usually it's some horrific electron thing that's even worse.
That and also, most captcha I've used so far require a server-side validation that is not replayable with Curl (as the token has been used during the first submission).

NIMBYs often advocate for building “out” rather than “up”, either explicitly or by omission (saying not to build any housing results in this; people need housing somewhere).

It results in sprawl, car dependence, inefficiency, reduced access to jobs/retail/parks. Regardless of intention, selfish or not, I can’t imagine worse results for the environment and our cities.
You are making my argument for me.

Both of these show data that weakly support ivermectin use rather than being against it. The conclusions hide this by focusing on the deficiencies of the available data, rather than focusing on their informational value. As usual, in case of controversial subject, do not trust the authors to make the correct conclusions, read the paper and the evidence presented.

These documents lack data after Jan 2021, so they are outdated. Also they do not seem to be peer-reviewed articles.

The Bryant/Lawrie study I linked to is half year newer and peer-reviewed. Much more respectable source and also consistent with FLCCC reports who have first-hand experience with taking care of real patients.

Bose’ QC series of headphones is great. Incredibly comfortable and well tuned with noise canceling that’s still very competitive with more recent headphones.

The newer Bose 700 makes too many compromises to look nice IMO.
The actual structure I'm talking about isn't the ideology as a whole, it's just how Lenin decided to set up the bureaucracy. We can all agree that doesn't work.

As far as the ideology itself there definitely are many problems but I think you can't conclude that from the above.

> The main scenario I can imagine is if builders are operating psychotically, due to external incentives (corruption, poorly incentivized regulations, inability to build in more optimal locations/configurations)

Yeah, I suspect regulations play a role. There seems to be a lot of weird (IMHO) regulations when building new homes in the US. Size of house/yard, number of parking lots, size of road, et.c. This probably removes the variability for the developers.

Note: I am not American nor a housing expert, so I might be talking out of my arse.
All that matters to me is what % CPU is used compared to what is the maximum available on demand to a user at a given point in time.
GitHub and Microsoft intend to commercialize Copilot. This means they are taking huge swaths of copyrighted material that they did not license and using it to sell a commercial product. That really hurts their “fair use” defense. It’s even worse since they are facilitating the customers to pirate copyrighted material as well, which doubly harms their case.
Such a weird hill to die on, supporting the concrete milkshakes and staged bar fights guy.
Zen of an ideal team – Tenets to live by while building teams
It's more appropriate IMO to name it something like "Request-Identifier". All the client should indicate is that if you get 2 or more POSTs with that same Id, you are free to no-op on any after the 1st successfully handled one.

Idempotency is an emergent property of a system so it doesn't make sense that a client would dictate the key that's used to provide that behavior. So if the Idempotency-Key is quite likely not to be the actual "Idempotency-Key" in any sufficiently complex system, then don't name it that.
wow that's great

but what actually "LLVM" means here? proficency at LLVM IR and it's tools or internals and source code of LLVM?
It's a well-known attack on a security vulnerability called bitsquatting.
That does nothing to change the behaviour of people discussed in the article.
For me, it's useful to peek into the thought process behind the commits if I notice something odd or interesting in the aggregate review. On occasion I end up with a totally different set of comments because I find they'd already tried something I was going to suggest.

More important to me, the "logically split" commits are less useful when hunting down a bug months or years later. They explain the final intent, but not the path to get there, when the path to get there reveals when the bug was actually introduced, and following the thought process using those original commits reveals what the developer was intending instead of just what the end result was.

For example, was the bug introduced in the refactoring/cleanup? This happens a lot, and an earlier state of the code reveals what it should be doing. Was it introduced during initial development? If so, is it just an edge case they didn't think about (because it should have been impossible and a recent change elsewhere made it possible), or is it a remnant of some earlier version of the feature? ..etc

(That remnant-of-an-earlier-version one has actually happened to me and straight removing some code rather than trying to fix it was the correct way to handle it)
It is hard because bad habits are hard to break. It starts in childhood for most people, and parents who foster an environment full of soda, junk food, and other sugar/carb/sat fat/salt/alcohol laden foods basically decide their kids’ future for the most part.

And, of course, people use food to deal with stress.

You drink water almost all the time and eat mostly green stuff, you should be fine.
Yes, there are crash reports, but AFAICT they are all but universally ignored.

Example: Verizon's "Message+" for the Mac crashes for almost any reason, including "you just selected an old conversation." I allowed its auto crash report to work, several times.

I gave them a negative rating on the Play Store, citing this. They wrote and asked me for details on "the problem" so they could fix it. I told them to start testing their software.

If you're a developer on the other end of these things for some company, please speak up. How many are actually looked at?
Do you have plans to support bootstrap 5?
It is. It's modality was an anti-inspiration, as in... how the hell can we not have modes (a GUI)... sort of... then everyone started burring crap under menus though feature accretion... hence we go full circle, because people get fed up of bloat, leading to both UX fatigue and performance fatigue, which eventually gives you a kind of appreciation for simple modal interfaces.
Most cars now are partially drive-by-wire. The mechanical interconnect serves as backup.

I can see the others, but Ableton Live has M4L. You can do pretty much anything in it. Get a license for the full Max and you can do anything in it.
> > societies tend to ban those plants that appear to pose a threat to the social order.

> That seems pretty suspect. Western societies after all have tolerated alcohol, probably one of the most destabilizing drugs there is, for centuries. It seems to me, they ban what is unfamiliar or rather, they ban anything that hasn't reached large usage among the power class of that society.

Enforcement of anti-drug laws falls pretty heavily on the lower classes of society, particularly minorities. The ruling classes can pretty much get away with doing whatever drugs they want, rarely with any serious legal repercussions.

Psychedelics and cannabis were very strongly associated with the counterculture, religious and sex cults, social justice and antiwar movements, and with dropping out of the mainstream culture in the 1960's and 70's. This, along with wide-eyed sensational reporting of drug-related tragedies caused a full-blown moral panic that led to their being banned.

Alcohol never had a history of use that was even remotely close to this and it was widely used among all classes in society (including the ruling class). It too was banned in the US in the early part of the 20th Century until Prohibition was recognized to be much worse than allowing alcohol to be legal.
> we'd only work 15 hours a week. Well it's the future now, and he significantly underestimated the productivity we'd have

Most middle class Americans can easily make this change. You just need to live by the lifestyle of the 1970s. No cable TV, internet or cell phones. No frequent air travel or goods shipped in weekly from overseas, certainly no grocery delivery or Uber or laptops or software.

We don’t because we don’t want to. Not because we can’t. (The picture for the lower classes is more constrained. That said, 15 hours a week at a hair above minimum wage is quite liveable in many parts of the country.)
but we have cosmic wave background radiation... and matter may intercept enough of the radiation to make it dark.
From the first link it appears the effect is based on how the liquid flow of the core affects the orbit of the planet. The energy of the core does not play the same role on climate change as the energy that we’ve input into the system.

I don’t think anyone is claiming the bigger picture isn’t interesting. Indeed, I did ask for clarification precisely because I was interested in learning something new.
I agree with you, I find size is a predictor of decline in quality. HN hasn't hit that threshold, but even still I know that with what growth it has had the moderation efforts to keep it this way also increased significantly.
Why spend money on AWS you don't have to? Use Minio for S3 locally (or on your build server).

I'd argue the model t of electric vehicles was the Electrobat in 1894. EVs came before gas, and the ICE hit the pause button for a century on EV progress.

I think nonces are generally thought of as numbers, and as a client it might be simplest in some cases to be able to reuse or derive from an existing non-number key.
there must be theoretical differences between finite and infinite universes.
There are a few different flavours of physics you can use for DAS, and they 'use up' different areas of the spectrum. As long as what you want to do for telecoms is using completely separate wavelengths (channels or bands) then yes you can do both. Most DAS providers and users prefer to just use un-used/dark fibres though as it avoids any headaches.
The vast majority of the cosmic radiation consists of protons, i.e. hydrogen ions.

Light ions, e.g. of helium, lithium or boron are also relatively abundant and heavier ions are less abundant. There are also electrons, but in smaller quantities, because they can be captured by ions.

The high speed protons collide with the atoms of the Earth atmosphere and the collisions generate a huge variety of particles, but most of them have a very short lifetime, so they decay before reaching ground level.

At ground level, the cosmic radiation consists mostly of muons, because they have a longer lifetime, so they survive the travel from the upper atmosphere where they are generated, until ground level.

Only extremely few of the particles from the primary cosmic radiation, i.e. protons, reach ground, because most are deflected by the magnetic field of the Earth and the remaining protons lose their energy in the collisions with atmosphere, by generating particles, which eventually decay into muons.
I'm just building CRUD software and I don't scoff at the kinda stuff people report as bugs, particularly non-technical users. But working in an ER and judging people for being unable to judge the severity of their ailments? That borders on sociopath lack of empathy.
Right on every account. This GitHub debacle allowed me to see how these machine learning products coming from large tech corporations are parasites on not just software released in good faith by the community but all copyright-protected content released by the community, especially photos. Someone else did the labor of labeling and creating the training set for them. They know exactly how much value they are getting for free. It’s sickening
"switched from my 2015 MBP to a Surface Book 2 at the end of 2019, and switched back to my same, six-year-old MBP just a few months ago. To keep things short, whilst WSL puts Windows miles ahead of where it once was, I find that the same old rough-edges still remain."

I had a similar feeling when given a new windows laptop in 2020 to work with that was supposedly better spec'ed than my late 2013 macbook 15". The problem has been windows and the lack of finding flow in it's OS. I've been trying to document workflows & apps here for the past year to see if alternatives are emerging: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/148zTJUwfVv9xfDcpSoH3... . For me it's not so much the development environment but whether I can quickly deal with administrivia tasks (organizing files, copying things from one form to another, etc.). I'm surprised windows 11 still lacks miller columns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_columns

My concern about the apple platform going forward isn't so much about the technical, but the material - my 2013-era macbook died recently and found the fact that I could remove the ssd and plug it into a similarly old mac to still be a savior , despite having multiple backups. It's driven me to consider installing linux on an intel windows tablet over buying an M1 macbook - I'm getting leary of both the lack of repairability and really wanting a tablet on stand + detached keyboard/trackpad for sake of ergonomics.
Ditto. I use Blender at an amateur level from time to time and I feel that every time I want to do something that i know is possible and I look it up, the official documentation mentions menus or UI items that don't exist anymore so I have to figure it out myself.
Without a doubt you should read the following.

OK, I see where you’re coming from now. I’m still sceptical that it’d be fundamentally any different: I wouldn’t expect a court to be able to compel them to release their code, only to order that they either comply or cease distribution, and issue fines—both of which would be the same on any license, though to be sure compliance is easier on permissive licenses than copyleft licenses. (I also note that you could easily have mingled other-licensed stuff that says you must not release the code; I wonder what a court would make of such a situation; I doubt that they’d quite order you to violate one license in order to comply with another.) Do you have a link for a particular case where an entity was ordered to release their software?

Probably more the latter, but that requires some amount of the former. You’ll usually either be working on a custom LLVM backend or working on integrating LLVM into some compiler other than Clang.
Interesting, I was aware they can make plastic from milk - called "casein plastic", so certainly would tie in that their stomachs have microbes that can effect the chains in plastic.
I work in Swift (mostly). I think some tools are starting to coalesce (LLVM helps).
A Storage Crisis
I established a random pairing concept at our company (~15 people). It goes like this:
Every week a little script takes all names, produces random pairings of co-workers and posts them to slack. The goal is that everybody should communicate with everybody else on a regular basis, even if they're not working on the same things. The time investment is 1/person/week right now. The response so far is very positive. People learn a lot and enjoy it.
Curious where the 50X number comes from? From what I see, around 600K people die a year from Malaria but that is not 50X of world wide covid deaths?
Yes, sorry about that - I omitted a bit of that information for brevity.

If you want to play with allkeys.txt (which is by far much more sequential, simpler data than UnicodeData.txt) then you only need to remove the non-NFD strings (since the Unicode Collation Algorithm's first step requires you to decompose the string's code points to canonical NFD form), that removes ~2,000 entries.

The full file parser code, which strips those out and other useless information like comments and version information can be found here: https://github.com/jecolon/ziglyph/blob/main/src/collator/Al...

If you want to play around with UnicodeData.txt (which is less sequential, more complex data) then only two fields are used (the code point and decomposition field), and only records where the second field is not empty (the full decomposition type name in angle brackets is not needed, only whether it is or is not there is important.)

The full parser code for that file can be found here: https://github.com/jecolon/ziglyph/blob/main/src/normalizer/...

Hope that helps!
Hehe, that's the most 'between the lines' comment ever on HN, congrats.
A contract can state anything, especially between two companies, they're assumed to negotiate on equal footing and read everything, they don't get protections like consumers.

There is a possible strategy where you try to say that the data cannot be subject to copyright and you try to void the contract. You understand that. I think that's what you're talking about?

I am trying to tell you that there is a good chance that this strategy doesn't work. You're not gonna manage to void the contract like that.

The first case just passed in appeal court in France on the GPL. The court pretty much dismissed all copyright claims, they decided it's a contractual matter because there is a contract, the contract takes precedence over all copyright claims. (In the end they got some damages for "parasitism", it's a thing in French law where a company is profiting from work/investments taken by another company.)

Further clarifications then. In the US there are licenses and contracts, which are two separate fields of law.

In the EU (in France at least which I am more familiar) there are only contracts.

If you want to allow somebody to manufacture and sell some paintings for you (for example), you can draft a contract to allow them to do that. The contract could be called a licensing contract or a distribution contract. It's a regular contract, it's not a separate thing.

This causes a lot of confusion for US readers because they hear about licenses in EU and think it's the same as in the US but it isn't. That type of license is a contract governed by contract law. There is no separate license law like in the US.

My German is not good enough to comprehend all of that. It seems your link is talking about drafting contract for specific purposes (license to manufacture, license to distribute, license to use). It doesn't say that licenses aren't contracts.
I can’t speak to the entire EV charging landscape, but Tesla’s 250kw charging pedestals are liquid cooled and have thin, easily manipulated charge cables and Supercharger stations (at least in Florida) have dedicated handicap spots.
