I wish that was the case; we all moved on to streaming services. Now though I want to return and backup everything I've paid for over the decades, as well as hunt down some rarities.

Yes, I agree. Consider the greatest flaw in capitalism: Greedy people want greedy money for greedy people. The problem with greedy money is that it turns everyone into a greedy person. Similar dynamics exist for housing. People clearly want a gold style asset that they can greedily hold onto. The problem is that this greed gets in the way of the utility of the asset. Money exists as a medium of exchange (i.e. a means to repay debt) and real estate exists to house people.

It's funny how Bitcoin was created as a response to 2008 but all it merely did is replicate the flaws of conventional fiat currencies that lead to 2008 in a much shorter time span. All it shows is that the demand for greedy money is unstoppable.

for people interested, there is a youtube channel on the topic. There is real content, even if it's with marketing intent.
For the sake of science:

Microsoft historically used the 21 512 byte sector, 80 track, double-sided DMF format for 3 1/2" Windows installation media, yielding 1,720,320 bytes per floppy.

Assuming this format, floppy requirements for the four Windows 10 21H1 variants currently on MSDN are

x64 Consumer (Home/Pro): 3,398 floppies
x64 Business (Enterprise/Education): 3,323 floppies
x86 Consumer: 2,416 floppies
x86 Business: 2,361 floppies

Assuming the "1.44 MB" (18 512 byte sector, 80 track, double-sided) format, you'd need

x64 Consumer: 3,965 floppies
x64 Business: 3,876 floppies
x86 Consumer: 2,819 floppies
x86 Business: 2,755 floppies

In this case, assuming the most popular (x64) platform, you'd actually need closer to 4,000 floppies.

Assuming ideal 500 kbit/sec performance and two seconds per disk swap, reading 4,000 "1.44 MB" floppies (or DMF floppies with equivalent data) would take just under 28 1/2 hours.

So you could easily install any Windows 10 21H1 version from floppies in the course of a single work week, with enough time left over, perhaps, to check Windows Update over a 56 kbps modem (though you'd probably need the weekend, at least, to actually download the updates).
I found that no, that's not the case at all. I'm very relaxed now that I'm finally back in an office. I was very stressed working from home.
What does software development speed depend on?
Development process complexities:
- The technical side of the project
- Project requirements (unclear goals and objectives);
- Unreasonable deadlines
- Structural mismatches and internal issues within the company, etc.
Quality of code
Writing high-quality code is a time-consuming process – it’s either done well or done fast. However, super tight deadlines aren’t going anywhere. Whereas cutting down some corners is inevitable, compromising the entire code quality will eventually increase project duration. You’ll have to fix the errors anyway, but it’s going to be much more difficult and more expensive.
Team size
The success of a project depends on the efficiency of communication. If there are more than seven people in the team, communication becomes more challenging. The optimal team size is up to five people. If the project is large, divide the developers into smaller groups.
Human factor
The performance of the whole team depends on the contribution of each member. If everybody on the team is skilled, experienced, and self-motivated, the job will be done much faster.

Unit testing has become a bit like a diploma. Something society requires to acknowledge your quality, but that is mostly pro-forma and very poorly correlated with domain skills or intelligence.

Those are systems that have firmly crossed from "simulation" territory to "simulacra" territory.

People who think about the actual value of specific tests like you are few and far between. Most feel constrained by peer pressure and the need to do what they perceive is correct by definition.

I got a GPD Micro PC a couple months ago and I'm in love.

It's a magical size - exactly small enough to slip into a back pocket like a chunky phone, and exactly large enough that it's actually practical to use desktop software on it. It's ergonomically first-rate - I've done CAD work on it. And it's durable too - I've dropped it several times already and it's barely even scratched.

It's also unlocked a class of activity I didn't know was possible - long-form writing while out walking. I can get 50wpm with great tactile feedback on the tiny keyboard. It's all in on thumb typing, and having struggled with a Cosmo Communicator for a year I can absolutely say that that is the correct decision for a mobile device. The vast majority of the time there's no handy surface nearby.

Now that I essentially have a laptop on me at all times, phones hold no appeal for me anymore. None. This is the class of device I've always wanted. All it really needs in order to replace a phone completely is a cell modem which can wake it from suspend, and ideally the standard "mobile" sensors such as GPS, cameras, and gyros. And waterproofing, I guess.

I know everyone has their own experiences, but I've just never experienced this. Makes me wonder what "friends" one is keeping as company.

I know, and I try and socialise with people who know, that work is just work, and its not worth sacrificing personal/social life just to simp for a boss.

I've met my best friends at work. I've moved across the world to another country with former colleagues. Created extremely deep connections with colleagues who've lead me to much personal growth.

>In my company the only ones that want to go back to the office are those engineers and managers that spend most of their day just walking around, talking to everyone about non important stuff, inviting you to have a coffee, and making jokes until 5pm. Just the people that have nothing to show at the end of the quarter.

This is more applicable to managers, who have a lot to lose and might feel compelled to protect their dubious skills/roles/responsibilities, which are now being eroded and automated by 'Bossware'.

The few times I was able and allowed to go back to the office, I personally loved it. Having separation between work and the rest of life is much harder when working from home.
It also means I get to see and talk to more than 3 people. Much appreciated.

It does probably help that work is a 20 to 15 minute cycle, and I work in a 3-person room, rather than an open space.
Woosh, sarcasm not detected.

Wow that felt great to read, thanks for sharing.

I believe no-code is incredibly underrated by many early stage startups. Rewrite only once you found your PMF and there's a real performance issue (or other technical reason), just you like you did.

One of the best thing about no-code is that you avoid painful, timewasting continuous refactoring while trying to iterate on your products the first months. It's much easier to design & structure the code to be as close as possible to the business (DDD-style) when you write it from scratch after reaching PMF.

Being able to iterate fast early on is such an important part of startups. I think code is not great at this.

Intel's Ambitious Plan to Regain Chipmaking Leadership
Same message on Firefox-on-iPad, so more of a webkit thing, I guess.
From my experience it’s best to keep coworkers and friends in separate circles. Most of your coworkers aren’t truly your friends and have their own personal motives. You compete against them during performance reviews and promotions. It’s difficult to determine if you can trust or confide in any coworkers. Stick with true friends you can confide in and have healthy relationships with.
I’ve read this comment/suggestion almost every year I’ve been on HN. Maybe one year it will be true.
Is it less work to design and produce a good programming font? Or is there a larger target market at a lower price? In other words, what market forces would make the price go down for this one category of fonts? Personally I doubt that a programmer who wouldn't spend $100 for a font would spend $5, and you have to sell 20x as many to make up the difference.

Yes, most things sadly are designed for Windows now, because it's a monopoly. Not a fault of Linux, but it does make it less attractive.

Last time I checked, plenty people on HN claiming those enterprises are branch of the government `since they operate in China`, which I still do consider to be one of the most ignorant and arrogant comment on Chinese businesses.

If governments can actually be that successful in dicating and operating businesses, then the communism world would never have failed so miserably, the control the Chinese government has over companies is really no more than that of the United States governments (from federal to local), just look at how the federal governments banned all kinds of business activites, how the `do no evil` company bidding for defense contract. It's a pity many of the readers live in the imaginative world where the US is free of all evils, with China being the opposite.

What? This argument makes no sense. By this logic, every service ever can be compelled to do anything, because by definition they are the only one creating something of that quality and nature.
It's the forum that frequent commenters on Slate Star Codex set up to chat while Slate Star Codex was on its NYT-induced hiatus. It seems to have developed a life of its own and is still in use even now that Slate Star Codex is back as Astral Codex Ten.
In a big nutshell:

There was a blog written by Scott Alexander called 'Slate Star Codex', which was read by a lot of big tech entrepreneurs. Last year the New York Times wrote a piece on it, and told him they would reveal his name.

Scott took issue with being doxxed (too much to unpack in this, but caused a bit of a stir including here in hackernews) and took down the blog in protest. The blog had regular open threads for discussion, with some quite active regulars in there.
datasecretslox was created for some of those to keep that space for discussion.

Lately Scott moved to substack and writes at AstralCodexTen.

Yes but most problems are simple. It also happen that Excel-sheets become too complex for their own good, but most excel sheets are pretty simple and never grow to that level of complexity.

So if you don't know if a particular task will grow to that level of complexity, it is probably better use of resources to use a nocode/lowcode solution until it is clearly insufficient, and then take the pain of migrating to code.
As nice as Photopea is, it's browser only. Furthermore, GIMP provides a variety of different plugins, extensibility options, hardware support for graphics tablets etc.

>There was no theory, ship's screws were designed by trial and error.

The early marine propeller designs consisted of an Archimedes-type screw with multiple full turns. During tests of one such design on a small boat in the Paddington Canal in London, half of the propeller broke off. The broken propeller (with only one turn) turned out to be able to propel the boat twice as fast. [0]

The inventor, Francis Smith, amended the patent to describe either a single-turn screw propeller or one with two screw threads each describing half a turn (essentially a two-bladed propeller).
