Without the (old) extra inconvenience, it would probably be higher than 1%. Also, it could be that this mechanism substitutes for some of the previous anti-theft measures, so it's hard to use the $719,548 figure to conclude anything about whether this would be cost effective.
The example syntax for connection handling is perfect. The footgun of not releasing the connection (especially from pools at the end of the with) is real. And the concepts are different (block of transactions vs normal with file xxx. )

with connect(DSN) as conn:
with conn.transaction():
do_something()
with conn.transaction():
do_something_nested()

with conn.transaction() as tx:
do_something_else()
# we were just testing and we don't really want to do this
tx.rollback()

# and here the connection is closed

Any chance of pushing some changes up into the postgresql side? I'm thinking of a block of trx with params separate? Didn't look at it at all.

Why? Were you party to that decision of your government?
A lot of good programming on PBS. But ever notice that the good programming generally occurs during the pledge drives? I mean, they might as well just run commercials.

That said, there are definite problems with the ad driven model of YT too. Maybe it's not the model that's the problem but who ultimately runs it.
Home Depot doesn't sell "Replacement Clamp Pads" for their Bessey "Clutch Style Bar Clamp". They regularly go missing. You're _supposed_ to shop lift them, then the store sends the defective clamps back to be refitted. This is apparently by design.

Where do you get the idea that this isn't the very heart of every political campaign? There's a curve of course, where if you promise too much people don't see it as believable.

My first experience with this was high school. Freshman year the student body presidency was won by the fellow who promised that we would get sodas added to the machines (rather than the no-caffeine options that were then available). Bullshit. But he won. In his acceptance speech, he explained it straight out, and we all learned something.
Speckle | Remote | UK/Europe | Full-time | Backend/Devops Engineer, Frontend Engineer

Hi! Dimitrie, founder @ Speckle. We are revolutionising how architects, engineers and construction professionals deal and interact with building and infrastructure data: we believe in a modern ecosystem created around an open source platform (Speckle!). When we use big words, we like to say that we're building the "git & github" for a $10T industry (AEC - architecture, engineering and construction).

We have two openings of interest, one for a Frontend Engineer[0] and for a Backend/Devops Wizard[1]. Both positions are remote, but we ideally would like a ~4-6h overlap with the London timezone.

Our stack crosses from NodeJs, Postgres, Kubernetes, to C#, Python and sprinklings of C++. There's always something fun to hack on at Speckle! We work in the open, constantly engaging with our community and users from across backgrounds, domains and cultures[2]. We have other openings too, just head over to our careers page [3] for more info & company culture snippets.

The OP is probably talking about the psychological impact of washing Netflix restlessly during long periods of time. That generates GDP, but the net impact on society might not be positive. Same thing with the psychological issues associated with social media addiction.
Fern Creek Software | Louisville KY | 100% Remote

Fern Creek is a software consulting company. We build stuff for other people, usually in .NET on Azure but we do other stuff occasionally. The company has been around since I started consulting independently about 20 years ago. Recently I started taking on larger projects that need more people and as a result, started hiring people. Sometimes a 1099, sometimes W2.

This is not super sexy stuff where you will get options that might be worth millions, but likely worth nothing. What you will get is a load of experience on new tech (asp.net core, azure, blazor etc) and a great focus on the best feature of all...shipping.

The job is remote so you don't have to be in Louisville though if you are close that is cool.

Set your own hours and all that, I want pros not people that need babysitting.

3 openings right now...
-Full stack dev (C#, asp.net core, sql server etc)

-DevOps/Automation/QA dev (unit testing, selenium, azure devops)

-Mobile dev (Xamarin, React Native)

Live the stress free life, work from home, build some cool tech, make money, be happy etc etc.

Shoot me a message at jobs at ferncreeksoftware.com
What on earth makes you think that? No, I don't think humans are super-natural. But in addition to being creatures sprung from nature, we are also something else (indeed, the very definition of something being anything other than natural, i.e. cultural or artificial, is that humans have had a hand in its creation).
Alibaba and Tencent are hardly purely "get people addicted" companies.

Together, they power nearly the entire retail transaction market in China. Alibaba heavily drives commercial transactions and Tencent powers the vast amount of personal communication (WeChat).

They are quite profitable as effective monopolies, but are very valuable to society.
Okay, nice censorship, now someone please post the deleted photo to f* em', thanks.
The use of Java in trading systems is widely misunderstood. Java is typically used to implement the high level business logic where microsecond latency is not required. The output of the Java service is feed to another system which handles the actual trade execution. That part is typically done with C++, or FPGAs driven by C++.
Ultimate TDD is machine learning. You give the machine all the test cases, and it figures out the code. Except it doesn't work as well on out of test samples. Human oversight is still required.
> Palestinian militias launched rockets at Israel in response to its attempts to ethnically cleanse illegally occupied Palestinian territory

What ? That was what Western media wrote over and over again last few months.
It's not just that they've gotten away with producing junk, it's that they're actively becoming / making themselves more junky by the minute.
Can you expand on this insight about weighting value and its predictive power or share a source?
I get so jealous of my mechanical/structural engineering friends who's interviews usually span one or two rounds, and they're never asked for anything resembling spec work.

Hiring should never take more than a day or two of interviews.
I had this opinion for the longest of times as well, but me and all the other devs I know who started using a rebase-based approach just don't want to go back.

I think it's also a bit a question of team size. If your project has just a handful of devs working on it, merge-commits really don't matter all that much. If there are a few dozen with a good amount of juniors on the repo (a bit over 40 devs in my case), the commit-history becomes an absolutely unreadable spiderweb, that's at least my experience.

At work, we want to move towards trunk-based development (merge to master goes straight to prod), but whenever master was broken, a look at the commit-history didn't really all tell you that much about the who, how and why without checking it out and digging into it. So we've recently started to enforce linear history, in which case it is immediately obvious without the shred of a doubt who's responsible. Analyzing the build became an absolute breeze, at the cost of having a bit of a harder time at "insertion"-point (which is perfectly fine, given the fact that after merge, it should eventually go straight to prod).

It took a while to get everyone on board, but it was really worth the efforts and can only recommend it (I most definitely will prefer a workplace that is open to such practices in the future). In general, most devs were also quite happy to be guided through the process, as it is clear that git is probably one of the longer-lasting constants in our industry.

Also, I can't repeat it enough; speaking from experience, most devs severely overestimate the complexity of cherry-pick/rebase/reset/reflog etc. Whenever I had sessions explaining it or helping someone out with a problem, they had their first "aha!"-moments after a few minutes, and after that with some do-it-yourself-experience most of them get there rather fast. Obviously, there are always a few outliers who need a little bit of extra-nudging and extra-help to stay in line, but those are usually the ones who often also need that sort of assistance in other areas so that's okay.
Show HN: How you can become a successful product manager- Learn from experts
Home Depot could solve this problem really easily by having more than two people working in a store at a given time.. It's a pretty simple solution. Every single person I know has stolen something small (like a box of screws) from home depot in the last few years because they got tired of trying to find someone to check out with and said fuck it and walked out. Theres other examples of that same forced to steal because theres no way to pay in this thread, and all over the internet. HD has incompetent top down leadership. Fire your C Suite.
Yeah. Nobody reads terms and conditions, privacy policies... At least a decade ago I remember seeing one that reserved the right to scan my processes, my memory, my file system, take screenshots at any time as well as exfiltrate all of this data to remote servers. Basically a RAT.

Toll roads are a bad example IMO. We could have an entirely separate conversation about how they hurt the most disadvantaged and are typically a gigantic scam when played out on broader timelines. If you want to see the end game on toll road experience, come visit Houston sometime.

A consumption tax would be something more like "I want to buy a new hillside estate and I have to pay this special 20% fuck you tax because I'm excessively wealthy".

Consumption tax code could be fairly complex in order to minimize impact to those who are purchasing day-to-day items and other essentials. I would happily pay extra taxes on my discretionary purchases like high-end PC hardware (and probably make more of them) if it meant that on the other hand I wouldn't be penalized just for working and making money. Anything you could buy at a grocery store should probably be exempt or in a tightly-controlled tier.

Property taxes are cool too. Land is a ~fixed resource, so you have to have some counterpressure involved there. I am not saying alter property taxes to accommodate any of this, I just think they have a place.

Truework | Software engineers | San Francisco, CA | Full time | Remote & Onsite Positions | https://www.truework.com/careers/
Truework is hiring frontend, backend, infrastructure, and security software engineers to help overhaul employment and income verification in the United States.

Banks and background check providers often request employment and income data from your current and former employers to approve mortgages and loans or complete pre-employment screening. Your employer likely shares important details about your employment, including your title, job duration, and wages, with third party credit agencies to fulfill these requests. Unfortunately, this process is not transparent for employees and can be slow and error-prone for employers and verifiers.

Truework is building a modern, employee-first employment and income verification platform to give employees visibility and control into how their employment information is shared with others. We are growing quickly and currently handle thousands of verifications every month, which have enabled the approval of billions of dollars in loans and help employees in regulated professions (e.g. nursing) start work more quickly than before.

Our engineering team is still small, which means you’ll play a big part in shaping the future of Truework, and your work will have a significant impact and visibility. We are a Django and React (Typescript) shop, and run our infrastructure on AWS. If you want to learn more about the things we’ve built, check out our engineering blog at https://www.truework.com/blog/engineering/.

If you’re interested or want to know more about working at Truework, send me a note at victor @truework.com. (more options in my profile details)

I'm finishing up my masters and plan to defend my masters thesis next week (artificial immune systems in industrial controls systems). I was previously an energy engineer and my bachelor's is in mechanical engineering. I'd like to move towards either a development role or a data science/machine learning role. Have a group of more experienced programmers to mentor me is very important to me. I have a lot to learn but I'm also passionate about making things, so I'm hoping my next role can scratch that itch.

It threatens to kill anonymity in crypto transactions. Definetly not a good thing but I'm also not sure if that means it is going to "kill crypto".

I don't know enough about the mining compliance hurdles to really judge that part of it though. If it truly bans mining than it just means the end of Bitcoin and other PoW coins

Which they promptly keep to themselves and utilize to maximally exploit their users time and attention. Technology is a tool, not a generic force for good. Tools are agnostic to human value. If technology is being used exploitatively then it's a problem.
My thoughts, correct me if I'm wrong here: If I'm on a very low income, likely 100% (or more) of my monthly earnings will go to buying food, paying rent/utilities, etc, so under a consumption tax, a higher proportion of my income will be taxed than under income tax (people in the lowest tax bracket generally won't pay income tax at all). Of course, you could exclude these necessities from tax, but then I find it difficult to see if tax revenue would be high enough from just taxing non-essential items.

IMO, any tax system where the poorest people pay a higher proportion of their income than those richer than them is flawed.
This is a really fluffy article. It doesn't discuss how they got the ignition timing right, installed an ignition coil, distributer or coil packs. Modern gas engines have about a half a dozen electronic sensors that deal with the internal position of engine parts or fuel air mixture. Maybe some sensors from the diesel were reused and they just used the diesel timing to fire the spark somehow. Anyway it is not suprising it knock or ran rough. If they installed correct electronics it may have ran much better.

Btw. the reverse, converting a gas engine to diesel is much harder if not impossible for practical purposes.

It's still an Olympic event. I used to know a race walker in the DC area, but I don't know where he found events to compete in. I think he was the one who told me that race walking develops the muscles more evenly than running does. (I can't remember exactly how he put it.)
