Then they should do like Apple did(?) and continue to sell older generations as the low end segment offering.

Which should incidentally make sense since they'd be still supporting because of the said law anyway.

Another side effect is this may also discourage them from churning pointless new models year after year with minor spec bumps.
> How many PMs actually use those features?

It isn't the set of features that makes them sticky. It is the 10% of features the lead PM can't live without, and the slightly-overlapping-but-different 10% of features the team PM's can't live without, and the slightly-overlapping-but-different 10% of features the developers can't live without, and the roll-up report features the leadership team can't live without... There has been some research into this phenomena [1]. I'm not aware of a handy term for the phenomena, would surely appreciate someone pointing me to it, and the industry recognizing it and building for it, though.

Internally in my head I call it "multiplexing feature sets". Though I never say that aloud and just give the long-winded explanation if I have to bring it up in meetings.

> ...I don't see any reason why we should prefer Atlassian over Taiga, other than familiarity and inertia.

In large-organization dynamics, never underestimate the familiarity and inertia factors. I regularly see vendors screw this up so badly. Account management teams of even large organization vendors (so they should be taking action upon this, but apparently are not) regularly have no clue what kind of massive red flag it takes to push their decade(s)-entrenched product from "man we wish this could be better" to "you really need to fix this, or we need to start looking elsewhere".

How do you tell when a customer is just kvetching and presenting empty threats, or is laying it on the line to you? Easy: the customer is happy to share with you specific details of how the product shortcomings/defects are impacting line of business processes and the business impact (ask for this under the cover of learning what the critical business impact is so your support teams can devise the most appropriate tactical technical solution for immediate partial/total relief), and is eager for live working sessions with the customer's engineers.

And understand this: rarely will a customer reveal they have switched away until it is practically finished. They want to maintain what little interim support quality they have left, until they can step off. If your account management practices engage "all hands on deck" priority support when you get wind of a competitor in the wheelhouse, then you've lost before you even started. That's why the reveal is always a shock to vendors, and always a done deal when it is shared.

The time to understand that your product and product support consumption experience for a particular set of customer needs is horribly broken is when you notice a customer requesting product support leadership engagement more than 2-3 times in a year. If you aren't tracking those engagement touch points, then I guarantee you are losing license sales. They just don't show up in the sales metrics.

Why would protonmail be responsible for human traffic that happens unbeknownst to them? They don't need to "shield" merely just don't keep any logs so there is nothing to seize. If I go to walmart and buy a trailer with cash while wearing a mask (which walmart blindly accepts) to cram a bunch of illegals in to cross the border, why would that be walmart's fault if they don't have any log of who I am? Are you demanding walmart keep KYC of anyone buying knives, trailers, and anything else that could be used for illegal purposes.

> So I've never understood the desire for a "PDF Warning".

What you're describing is the influence of scripting, and, to some extent, custom stylesheets. Some of us take the Web to the stone age by disabling either, for the purpose of calm reading - I think Reader Mode is also that.

Yes, the content being reflowed by the creator is worse than fixed content, but fixed content is worse than content reflowed exclusively by the reader.

Considering that, I really have no desire to read PDFs which need to be panned and zoomed every which way in order to read them comfortably.
there was a thread on HN about 'boring advices' and every 'utopian ideals' seems to be completely out of that class :)
Is there a concern about a race condition in this sort of model? Granted a time quanta is probably quite low. Like, I go from just outside the listening boundary to just inside after my client has ignored the animation cue and before my client gets the state cue. Absent clever visual occlusion checks it seems like this could be a concern. How is this kind of thing resolved? It's true that skipping an animation and having a door pop open is better than having the door stay closed and a desync, but it seems like there's gotta be more corner cases here?
Note: It's almost the inverse of the recipe of HN.
What I find noteworthy and maybe isn't appreciated enough is how many of these large solar installations are in countries like India or China.

You may implicitly think that these would be in the richest countries, but apparently they are not. (Granted China and India have good conditions for Solar, but so do parts of the US and Australia.)

Yep, the duck curve was a problem they anticipated they'd hit when trying to get to 15% solar in California, not a general problem for getting to 100% renewable.

Even then it was one of those "good problems to have" as it meant you had an unimaginably high (at that time) level of solar. Some places arent as lucky as California when it comes to solar provision.

The fix for the totally seperate "nighttime" problem is some mix of oversupply of wind, hydro, demand management, transmission lines, batteries etc. but we only need to continue with the next low hanging fruit at the moment as we've not even maxed out solar pv (fallacy #1 in the article is expecting instant perfection and having solutions to all the problems we haven't actually hit yet)
Any company large enough _will_ have to deal with compliance at some point, that's why most devs in large software companies have to take these silly "exams" every year telling you to not plug a USB key you found on the floor in your company laptop, even if it should be very obvious to most.

I'm seeing a lot of people here that are surprised by the fact that even a company who has privacy as their main marketing point has to deal with compliance, but really, unless you host your own mail server, you just can't guarantee your own privacy.

I don't generally advise hosting your own mail server due to all the troubles that come with it, but this is really one of the only ways I can think of where you can achieve a decent enough level of control when it comes to exchanging emails.

>Dragging your foot on a skateboard leaves your other foot planted on the board, meaning the board is vulnerable to catching on any crack or edge while carrying most your weight, which will send you tumbling

You're doing it wrong. If you catch a crack with your weight planted dead center of your board (which is how this is done) then you're already in dangerous territory. Speed is not your issue - the terrain (or your lack of proper technique) is.

>I street skated for years and never became competent enough to use power-slides for governing speed on anything but the most ideal uniform asphalt surfaces. To propose that as some kind of accessible braking method strikes me as disingenuous at best.

Disingenuous? How rude. That's how me and my friends did it. Maybe if you were below advanced-intemediate level then power-sliding to control for speed might seem impossible (but it isn't - that's the beauty of skateboarding). I will concede it's an unreliable method because of the variance of the surface (which the other commenter mentioned). It does come with risks and requires sufficient skill.

Curiously, your comment left out the obvious thing I mentioned. You can jump off the damn skateboard. It's one of the very first things you learn.

You can jump off.

My 8 year old does it every day. You know what he and his sister do when they get going too fast on 'blades? Look for a grass patch and hope for the best.

You seem to be slighted by the mere suggestion that one measly aspect of 'blading is harder or requires a different approach.

I skated for two decades, and worked in the industry for over half of that. If there's one thing I learned it's that skaters are funny creatures. Especially when it comes to beefs with their "adversaries" like rollerblading, BMX and scooters.

It really makes me chuckle.

Not true. I've known this phenomenon by its name for well over a year. Not sure the origin. Yes, it's nonsense. But plenty of people use here in the Bay Area. This wasn't made up just for this article.

Transmission loses would probably make a balloon a wash vs ground-based solar. Then there's the liability of some mass of solar panels floating over populated areas. At 5km an untethered balloon would have a fairly wide area it could land on. A 5km tether dragging around or falling on the ground could cause a lot of damage as well. There's also dangerous conditions when atmospheric conditions cause the balloon to lower its altitude, slacking the tether, and low altitude wind whipping it around. I don't see any utility of untethered balloons.
TBH, Holy Land Foundation is not some random charity that happened by coincidence to help some orphans whose parents maybe were terrorists. It was a front end for Hamas, them collecting money overseas (measured in millions of dollars) and Hamas controlling and distributing the money on the ground. Hamas has always had, beside its military wing, a large non-military organization, including schools, charities, mosques, libraries, hospitals, sporting clubs, etc. Holy Land Foundation was the part of this framework, and a part of the traditional structure where families of terrorists, either dead or imprisoned, were paid pensions. Each palestinian organization has such program, with PA mostly drawing it from its general budget (US is not too happy about it, as you can imagine, but little can be done to completely prevent it since the money is fungible) and Hamas through its charity network.

So no, it's not just a rumor through an anonymous tipster, it's a well known and established system, which has been operating for years and still is - just not through HLF nowdays, obviously.

If we're allowed to diverge from the actual world to hypothetical worlds, then renewables and storage can also be much cheaper.

Hydrogen for load leveling can be stored underground as a pressurized gas, just as natural gas is stored. This is a demonstrated technology. Also, the US already has 1000 miles of hydrogen pipelines, so that too is a demonstrated technology.

My initial draft had a line really similar to that, great minds… Also, all things considered, I think that’d be a better than average outcome. Alcoholism and heartbreak can be overcome.
Getting into debt to get a piece of paper that only lets you begin to enter the job market after gathering enough credentials by either working for free or talking to others and hopefully trying your luck even though there are 100s for a single internship... College is a scam unless you're paying close attention and don't get into debt in the first place.

Those who manage to jump through all of the hoops don't realize that there is a secondary scam waiting for them: working for a wage without significant stock options while someone makes millions sitting around doing nothing off of their effort. We've had movies made about this for many years and still it's so strange how it's not acknowledged.

Also: who is friend or foe? The lines have blurred significantly, which is a driving force in WANTING to change things in the first place. There's even loss of solidarity between family members, next generations.

There's no incentive to try. If I were the same age as these young men, I wouldn't bother either.
Those are all benefits when your goal is discrete communication: which is exactly what we're discussing.
It really is not. TDD is for highly competent programmers.
Your point is valid. Power sliding on the street, with speed, is definitely for advanced skaters. Particularly for the reasons you mentioned (unpredictable surfaces).

A couple issues with this link:

1) The post is a three-paragraph news announcement rather than anything of substance. There really isn't anything material to discuss specific to this link.

2) This page was originally posted in either 2019 or 2020. In this 2020 snapshot [1], it says February 2019.

From other sources, it seems like somewhere between a stablecoin and just using a different data store for corporate finance.

Who wants to buy your mismanaged cryptocurrency when you're looking to dump it?
The problem is how you define "good economic governance". For instance a controlled amount of inflation is generally considered to be good for a currency, as it incentivizes investing your money instead of hoarding it non-productively.

But if there's one thing that most cryptocurrency investors usually don't want, it's inflation. Actually, the more deflation the better.

And that's the catch really, because there's nothing forcing you to use a cryptocurrency like you have to use a government-issued currency, the cryptocurrency has to reward early adopters if it wants to become popular. This in turn makes cryptocurrencies, IMO, have patently bad economic governance, since the deflationary spiral makes them unusable for anything beyond pyramid schemes.

>Also, programmable money is inherently more valuable because of new use cases it enables, like smart contracts

Meh, smart contracts are not so smart, and not so contractual. It's just a very inefficient scripting mechanism that doesn't really buy you all that much. Suffices to see all the modern cryptocurrency "dapp" that run on centralized, trustful chains just because they're unusably expensive to run on true decentralized blockchains.

See all the stuff running on the BNB chain that's 1/ not decentralized and 2/ just a bunch of pyramid/ponzi schemes with no practical use beyond speculation.

Agree that 99% of the leetcode interviews are divorced from everyday coding work.

However, this article goes in the wrong direction in trying to keep the LinkedList premise - how often do programmers see a raw linkedlist anyways?

Directly ask coding questions from your everyday work, and skip the linkedlist stuff as 3rd level detail questions; the signal that the candidate can do the job is much higher then. Ex: here’s an API and it’s json response: write some code to parse it. Add extensions like paging, network failures, etc. Let the candidate google everything, and if your question is good, it can’t be copypasta from StackOverflow.
