Job hopping is the perfect strategy for mediocre developers in this "bull market", if done quickly you'll only tell stories of glory, never having to deal with your bad decisions long term.

I'm not saying only bad developers do this, but there's an extra incentive for them to do so and increase noise for recruiters.
That's not how anything works. The money doesn't just come from nowhere, or from the landlord's profits. It is accounted for as an increase to rent. That's what I meant by "surprise fees", you're still paying them, they're just not a surprise anymore. Maybe the increased transparency in the market will push out brokers that aren't adding value, but that's more of a hope.
Let's just not compare any country to another because most of it will make China look bad.
The Rasp hosting the creaky RFID Access system I hacked together for the local hackerspace (one of the first things hacked in the space) has been running on the same SD Card for I think 8 years now. Issues I've had with SD Cards ended up being due to me using subpar power sources for the Rasp, a mistake I have avoided making since.
There's also a lot of demand for moving trucks being used locally as delivery vehicles, since there's a surge in deliveries. Usually not the big trucks, but when a delivery service rents a small truck or van, someone who was going to rent that to move has to rent something bigger.

It's riskier, but you might see if you can buy a used moving truck and plan to sell it at the destination. I've seen a few reports of people doing that with good results, although I can imagine many ways it might go bad.

Or pod style boxes, or load a trailer and a trucking line drops it off at the new place might have better availability.
That is not what this link says. The landlord is legally required to mitigate damages - it says so clearly in the text. That means that they must try to find another tenant. If you hand the landlord applications from several qualified tenants, and they don’t rent to them, then you can successfully win in court if the landlord tries to sue you for unpaid rent. New York housing court is known to be very tenant-friendly as well.

Now, in the midst of a COVID-fueled exodus and wave of unemployment, you might legit be screwed…

Can you explain this, or provide a reference?
I kinda love that this is written like an infomercial.... for regexes. I've gotten far enough to think, oh, I think I actually just had this problem recently and didn't know how to solve it with regexps, but I'm still not to the part that actually tells me the One Regex Trick, and I'm still reading!

Sounds like eSNI is a good move if China is blocking it.
Nope not illiquid (quite the jump made there on your behalf given the available information).

I get paid “on or around the 20th” every month. In some cases it’s earlier (if the 20th falls on a weekend I’ll be paid the Thursday before that weekend), and on those occasions I paid the rent before the 20th.

I like to manually pay bills where I can as I will then write them off in a ledger I keep, especially for rent as I tend to balance everything when I get paid.

Also, and very important point here, the previous landlord, my friend, did not care at all when I paid rent as long as it was before the end of the month.

Also by using Faster Payments bank to bank transfer my friend got the money same day rather than +/-3 days like direct debit. Again he didn’t care, but it was a nice benefit, right?
I got hit by the comment rate limiter earlier.

I agree that downvoting someone on HN is not censorship.

What I meant is the biases of the people writing and training the ranking / flagging algorithms bleeds through into the implementation. Similar to how there have been stories that facial recognition tools only recognize white people.

I don't know that it's a great argument or analogy. I mainly was trying to point out that when you escalate from individuals downranking items to individuals writing algorithms that have similar built in biases, then you end up with something very near censorship, even if it isn't intentional.

I believe that's really the whole argument behind "system discrimination", maybe individuals aren't overtly discrimination, but the system is built up in such a way that the result is discrimination.

You can agree or not, but it's worth considering, and I'd guess most people could be convinced of it in one context or another.
This is why any company that requires me to use Plaid is an immediate hard pass.
I'm not sure what you're getting at. Do you think that most not-hobby FOSS projects are somehow 'profiteered' by freeloading companies who own them but don't invest any time or labor into them?
Ten years ago I worked at a place that used single board DOS machines for clocking in and out. And this wasn't just at the beginning and end of a shift, this was every time they worked on a new batch of parts. It became very hard to keep these machines operating, you couldn't get spare parts for them anymore without scrounging other machines.

It was a medical device manufacturer, so it wasn't just company inertia holding them back - any change had to go through regulatory compliance. The company was in the midst of replacing their planning and tracking system when I left, and they've changed ownership twice, so I presume they've managed to replace those old systems too. I shudder to think of the problems they're having if they haven't.

What kind of hardware do people install Home Assistant hubs on? Does anyone have a good guide to a minimal but clean smart home setup?
yeah it's a step away from honor system pretty much

It makes sense looking back, the phreaking forums were confused as heck about these phones.
Where I moved in the Pacific North West, the most hostility comes from the people who moved here 15-20 years ago, often from California too. Although, some of them are pretty chill. Most of the people with deep roots are pretty chill too, but I have run into a amall handful of extra grumpy people.
> You can’t track all requests anyway, as they can be trivially tunneled through encrypted streams with bundled certs.

Previously I can track devices (a) making DNS requests, and then (b) make TCP and/or UDP requests. Anything that made a data request without a DNS request was probably using a hard-coded IP, which would be suspicious.

With DoH, it's all-HTTPS all-the-time:

I have an ecobee and I actually wonder whether it needs an internet connection. For setup, certainly. But I have it connected to Apple HomeKit, which all runs on internal networking. My Apple TV then exposes HomeKit for use outside the house.

we might consider this if the video cost economics force it (though we'd grandfather free folks in).

but early on, I'd like to try and make the initial business model define the mission and incentive structure of the company. "We only make money when you do" creates a very strong incentive for the organization to make you money. And I think a strong business model provides a strong foundation for an open ecosystem.

Though it may be the case that $X/time_unit plans are better for the ecosystem/video-makers as a whole; so it's definitely something we'd consider in that case as well.
Food distribution certainly falls under essential services. Pharmacies, too. But not much else is absolutely necessary.

Another dumb story from "back in my day". When I was in college way back in 1976, me and my Best friend back then both had graduated early and had to live in the dorm the first year until we were 18. The dorm they made us stay in was 6 stories and had a crappy old elevator. Being a couple of goofy hacker types with nothing better to do on a weekend, we figured out how to get up on top of the elevator and to use the alternate control panel up there. We sat up there and could control it, people would get on, we could listen to them talk, stop the elevator between floors and they would get all scared, we would flicker the lights on and off, make it go to the wrong floor and so forth. Pretty fun stuff for a couple of nerds.

We got bored with that pretty quickly until, 4 gals form the girls floor decided they were going to camp out in there and set the Guinness record for the longest stay in an elevator. Some of the bigger dudes knew that we had hacked the elevator and asked us if we wanted to mess them up. Well... Of course. So we got on top and were listen to them yakkedy yak. Then we took it to between the 6th and 5th floors and locked it in place, then opened the upper doors on the 6th floor where a bunch of guys with big trash cans full of water were waiting.

We thought they were just going to douse them good. So we opened the ceiling trap door to the elevator with the lights off and those gals were screaming and squealing like crazy. Then come dude tossed a string of fire crackers in there followed by two giant Garbage cans of water right after that. Must have been at least a couple hundred gallons of water, who knows.

Then we set the thing to go to the first floor and jumped off. Waiting on the first floor where a bunch of people who were in on it with cameras to capture the whole things as the doors opened it was like the seas parting and flooding out as these poor drenched young ladies came floating out. Picture was on the front page of the school paper "Guinness Elevator Record Attempt Drenched" or something.

They called the cops and all that but no one squealed on us and it was all in good fun but to teach everyone a lesson they shut down the elevators for 3 weeks. Young people don't care, worth a climb of the stairs for all the fun!

BTW, I ended up marrying one of the gals on the elevator and yes I told her I was in on it, later. She loved that for some reason :)
This comment is condescending and disrespectful.

1) I've never met a UX person who is a programmer. Most of them are from graphic design background, sometimes for vouchers or magazines and they don't necessarily understand that the computer screen is not the same kind of medium as a piece of paper.

2) Having a professional relationship entails pushing back and questioning. Being a "yes man" to the UX people is not a good working relationship. The implication of your comment is in order to push back and provide feedback I must first acknowledge my subservience to their whims and only once they approve of my work I may humbly submit some suggestions for their kind consideration.

> or any other pablum you were taught

If you want to have a civilized conversation, the first thing is to stop assuming everyone only consumes propagandistic drivel if you disagree with them. Many people, like myself, have traveled and lived in various other countries. Nowhere in my comments have I ever said the US doesn't have issues; in fact I quite frequently discuss the enormous issues the US has and so do most of the people that I know...

This is a freedom that I, and the media, do have and can exercise without getting imprisoned. The reporter issue -is- quite serious and needs addressing, but is related to police abusing their power during the riots last year, not the federal or state government going to people's homes and arresting them for posting online criticism of the government or ruling party. We're free to message each other and post online about every single atrocity the US government has committed without repercussion. How can a bad situation be improved if criticizing the government is impossible?

> No one wants to live in a racist country when they will be treated as second-class citizens at best.

You mean like living in any homogeneous Asian country as any ethnicity except the primary one? You accuse me of not traveling, but my experience from living in S. Korea and Japan showed me that highly homogeneous countries can be wildly racist about everyone. The US is not the only country has serious racism issues, and it's a shame that I need to state that. It seems like you think the US is one entity, but depending on the city and state it can be extremely multicultural and diverse (like Chicago, my home town).

Plenty of people are moving to the US still; I don't really find it a useful metric for an argument either way because it doesn't consider the origin country or the immigrant's prior situation.
I think the majority of people use a Raspberry Pi. Personally I use Pi4 with a SSD running Ubuntu. I run Home Assistant using Docker.

They wouldn't read my email until after they reported it... so then I'd get two emails from each person: one saying there's an issue, and another saying "oh sorry just read your email that you already know about it"!

Ask HN: What's the best health insurance for international contractors?
I work remotely for a large tech company and because I live outside the US, I'm an international contractor instead of an employee. This means I have no company-provided health insurance and after recently finding that my local private and public health insurance options are lacking, I've come looking for better options.

I've seen Bupa, Allianz, Best Doctors, SafteyWing, etc - but many reviews are not necessarily from people who use these services, so I'm asking here if anyone would like to share their experiences or thoughts on the subject of international health insurance.
"Losing people" (total population dropping) isn't quite the same thing as "exodus" (large number of people leaving) though.

No, I wouldn't. Gosh, and if I didn't respond it would almost look like I did support that wouldn't it? Toss out these cheap tactics...

There are obviously many levels on the spectrum of what could be done to sufficiently increase compliance without falling back on martial law and giving the governments more reason to erode our freedoms.

I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one someday.
You're mixing up two different tasks as I see it:

* Building/defining the data infrastructure

* Building/defining the schemas

In a traditional ETL infrastructure they are jumbled together but if you do ELT they are not. A data engineer can build the infrastructure but the transformations can be handled better by technical analysts. They're simply one view on the underlying data so the risk is minimal. Analysts query the data day in and day out so they know much better what they need than someone who doesn't.
100.000% as productive isn’t a reasonable standard. Flying first class in lie-flat seats helps immensely to reduce the impact of the travel itself. Jet lag is still an impact, but most frequent travelers can find a mechanism that works ok for them. You might be at 50% for a day, 80% for another two, then at 90+% per trip. That’s usually workable.

Trying to do that sitting in a middle economy seat isn’t directly comparable.

I don't think this is really a good metric as these sorts of decisions aren't made in a vacuum.

I don't know what -would- be a good metric, but perhaps the expatriation rate, immigration rate to other countries, and brain drain rate would be good places to start.
California is the third highest cost of living state:

https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/most-expens...

Everyone knows that California is not just LA and SF. But also Florida isn't just Tampa/Miami and Arizona isn't just Phoenix.

The big cities in CA are more expensive than the big cities in other states. The rural areas in CA are more expensive than the rural areas in other states.

Pointing out that the rural areas in CA are cheaper than the cities in other states is not compelling.

And for the record, Hawaii is seeing net out-migration too. At least its excuse for low cost of living is the fact that its an island that has to ship everything in.

Eureka is a moderate sized town by most standards, and you can get cheaper places in similarly sized towns or larger small cities throughout the US. Probably get apartments much bigger than a studio, too.
Sounds like eSNI is useless waste of effort since its intended audience can't use it.

Meanwhile eSNI/ECH breaks network visibility into the networks I'm responsible for managing (at home and work). If I'm supposed to be a good netizen and make sure that I quickly hunt down malware that's gotten on my network(s), blocking tools and techniques to do just that seems… silly.
workspaces are specifically _not_ intended to be used as environment replacements. And it wouldn't have caught the OPs issue to begin with. His problem was he didn't read the plan, because it's pretty basic that any change of a resource name or a change of type equates deletion and TF will report back saying it will destroy a resource that is missing in the config but in the state.

To solve his problem, after switching to the data source type from resource he needed to manually run `terraform state rm` to get rid of the resource from the state.
Gah I'm still sour about it! I know it's been, what, 5 years? But I'm still annoyed.
You should see the internal meme board, some of the criticism there is a lot stronger than these comics. If you fire everyone who's critical of the company, you'll only end up with yes-mans and the company will be ruined. As long as the criticism is constructive and legitimate, it's very welcome from my experience.
> I have no idea what point you are making. _Of course_ there has to be a bug in the code for there to be a buffer overflow vuln. Or are you objecting that they put contrived code to make the race work better (this is the concept of a PoC)?

The original claim was that "Go has lots of weird edge cases, like sharing a slice across threads can lead to memory corruption." But that's not the whole picture, you have to violate the memory model, too. And that's not interesting, because if you violate the memory model, literally any consequence is fair game.

Maybe your point is (a) it's easy to violate the memory model, and/or (b) bugs that violate the memory model have surprising consequences? I don't agree with (a); the situation can always be improved, but it's easy to spot and fix data races, and Go provides plenty of tooling for that purpose. And I guess I agree with (b) in the basic sense, but that's just a truism, for the reasons stated above.
> Over the last 3 months or so I've seen quite a few more than usual dead birds, most of which had really nasty looking eyes

Since scientists haven't found a conclusive common cause of death, perhaps they are confusing cause-and-effect.

Streambus already offers a higher revenue model than Youtube.

A Youtuber with a million subscribers that can convert 1% of their audience to paid subscribers at $5 a month makes $540k a year on Streambus.

And they'd do it on their own domain name, with the full ability to leave at any time without losing their subscriptions or audience.

They don't need to leave Youtube, or turn off their existing monetization models either.

Meanwhile, their audience can use an app they already have on their phone, and don't have to watch ads from a middleman.
