> you don't think that the NYT should be required to print anti NYT articles written by FB

Facebook isn't journalism; it's not comparable. The NYT does publish results of internal investigations into flaws, as do many other businesses, including much of the IT industry (all those open after action reports, for example).

Openness and transparency are necessary antidotes to concentrated power.

>> In our data, commits with lower defects come from the small number of hero developers who have learned how to talk to more people.

This makes me think of a RustConf 2021 talk that was just published, 'Compile-Time Social Coordination' by Zac Burns [0], where he discusses coordination problems that can come up when you have developers working on nearby code but don't communicate directly, and how you can encode what are normally 'socially enforced' norms and patterns into the type system to enforce correctness at compile time.

A little python training in the python stack (pandas/numpy/matplotlib or other visualization libraries) can go a long way to simplifying tech stack and get rid of these mind numbing BI tools.

And companies are trying. Ex:https://www.bobsguide.com/articles/barclays-gordon-risk-mana...

But I also see spending more on these tools, in the name of innovation, because some bigshot likes tool X and that's what he wants to use. And guess what, now you also need it to be made available in the cloud.

We suspect the Framework's high-brightness, high-resolution display is the culprit for its relatively poor battery life—the XPS 13 at the top of the chart is a 1080p non-touch model, as is the Acer Swift below it. Directly comparing 3:2 resolutions with 16:9 or 16:10 resolutions is an exercise in frustration—but the Framework's display offers noticeably higher pixel density than its competitors here, and that does not come for free.

I actually agree with you, but i think there is more to this than you have considered.

Most of the people paying taxes, actually love the government for it. They dont hate it. This is because Permits effectively put a price to use the field, and it shouldnt be surprising that teenagers and immigrants are the ones with the least means to pay and also the ones paying little to no taxes.

So office workers are able to afford playing , while the immigrants and teenagers get kicked out.

Kids of affluent parents have no problems booking fields. But that's due to poor incentives: little kid coaches have a racket setting up nonprofit 503(c) ( which gives permitholders priority ).

If there is a problem with permits, it is there. Permits are subject to capture

It lacks a unit of work system to allow precise control over loading and saving data. It also lacks an abstraction for composing arbitrary SQL queries out of components. It’s sometimes very difficult to predict the number of queries that will be emitted.

It’s a reasonable ORM, but doesn’t compare to SQLAlchemy.
Agreed. And I can say confidently that French cuisine is every bit as good as they say, and that American cuisine is generally infinitely far behind.
Ask HN: What're some great cities to live for $2k USD per month?
I'm a single 31yo guy looking move somewhere new for 1-2 years. I'd like to have a studio/1br to myself, cook most meals, use public transit (no car), and have enough of a budget left for a decent social life. I'm pretty frugal by nature, but enjoy the odd creature comfort. Any recommendations for cities that would satisfy this lifestyle on $2k USD per month (net)? My budget isn't fixed, so can always go a bit higher, but would prefer to stay at/under $2k if possible. Thanks!

Some places I had in mind: Athens, Belgrade, Bucharest, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Mexico City. Anyone have experience with any of them?

> They stopped compiling regexps on the fly and moved the regexps to package variables. (I actually don't know if this was a significant win; there might just be the three big wins.)

Anecdotally, this could be a huge win, depending on how often it's called.

A guy I was working with, new to Go, was writing a router config parser and asked why it was so slow.

The first thing I did was moved regexp.Compile from a hot path into a broader scope. It went from something like 40 seconds down to 2 on my machine.

For perspective, I moved to the mac because I didn’t enjoy compiling from source or debug install logs.

I use homebrew, and a number of stuff is still on x86 only, needing to run in a Rosetta terminal. My ruby install is one of these.

For php, php-brew couldn’t build the version I need till the end, so I bailed out of it and moved it to docker. Same for mysql 5 (upper versions seem to be available for the M1).

That was right when Hashicorp announced the Desktop pricing change, and I didn’t know what my org would do so I started checking the other options. Except docker-machine/engine is supported independently only on Intel, M1 chips need docker desktop to run containers (at least that’s my take, I’d love to be wrong).

Basically right now my local dev relies on Rosetta and docker, and I seriously think about buying an intel NUC as a side machine where I’d remote into.
If it was 1920 wide of any height of at least 1080, I can now display 1080p media with no scaling (its really hard to get players to not scale while full-screening, and scaling from 1920 wide to 2560 wide can never work well, even with high quality Jinc or even cutting edge machine learning scalers); but also, just streaming desktops that are already on standard monitors.

I think there's a significant question about the linearity of the scale. Is this quadratic, linear, logarithmic, exponential?

If quadratic, then the Cheesecake Factory experience gives you 9 "utils" and Poppy gives you 100 utils. You'd rather eat at Poppy once a month than Cheesecake Factory 11 times a month, but you'd rather eat at Cheesecake factory 12 times a month than either. (If 12 times a month is too much, swap these for per-year numbers.)

If linear, then Cheesecake Factory gives you 3 utils and Poppy gives you 10. You'd rather eat at Poppy once a month than Cheesecake Factory 3 times a month, but you'd rather eat at Cheesecake Factory 4 times a month than either.

If logarithmic, it doesn't really matter what the base of the logarithm is. Suppose it's 10. Then Cheesecake Factory gives you 0.477 utils and Poppy gives you 1 util. You'd rather eat at Poppy once a month than Cheesecake Factory twice a month, but you'd rather eat at Cheesecake Factory three times a month. I think this is roughly how my restaurant scale works.

If exponential, it does matter what the base of the exponential is. Suppose it's 10. Then Cheesecake Factory gives you 1000 utils and Poppy gives you 10 billion utils. You'd rather eat at Poppy once in your life than Cheesecake Factory an unlimited number of times (once a week for 200,000 years). But if the base of the exponential is 2, then we're talking about 8 Cheesecake Factory utils versus 1024 Poppy utils. In that case you'd rather eat at Poppy once every 4 years than at Cheesecake Factory once a week, but you'd rather eat at Cheesecake Factory (or an equivalently good restaurant) once a week than at Poppy every 5 years.

So, how does that 1-10 scale map to your preferences?

Correct. I don't know why this is a revelation that seems especially hard for HN audiences to grasp, or why it's a revelation at all.

Every single domain has its own expertise. It is absurdly arrogant and deeply condescending to think that only computer science or engineering or related fields have specialty expertise.

Lionhead, a particularly authentic Sichuan Chinese restaurant surprisingly founded by the same gentleman (Asian family; this is one thing I know well). Or Pomegranate in Redmond.

COPPA has a very broad definition of personal information (see https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-16/part-312). "Online contact information" counts as personal information, and that includes email addresses, IRC nicks, IM usernames, etc. Some other things that count as personal information under COPPA are IP addresses, the user's voice, and full names. Virtually all online services with user accounts collect personal information as defined by COPPA.
Did you mean "the former"? Sandwiches are the principal dish served at McDonalds, but Starbucks has some sandwiches too.
There's a big difference between always provoking opposite behavior and communication skills (i.e., don't attack people).

When the law says, 'separate your plastics and glass for recycling', not many people intentionally start mixing them. When it tells businesses to pay minimum wage, they don't cut wages further below the new minimum. Most people think of most laws as reasonable.

Yes, it needs to be communicated effectively. If you attack people, they feel unsafe and get defensive. Most law is very dry reading, not accusatory or emotional. And very few people read the actual laws.
The two are not mutually exclusive.

For much of NZ/AU, this is too low for rent unless you can find a share house. Assuming you did, Melbourne, Brisbane, Wellington might work. That said, a LOT of money goes on rent.

Turkey and Greece aside, I don't think the core EU economies will work out. If you go to the more recent entrants on the fringe (Czech republic, Slovakia, Croatia, Slovenia) you'd be in budget.

Much of south-east Asia would be fine on this. Bangkok, Hanoi, Kuala-Lumpur, Chang Mai. Or Indonesia. You won't keep head above water in Beijing or Tokyo on this income, I can't speak for other cities in region.

Many economies now have digital nomad visa, its $2k class cost but then gives you rights to be there beyond 90 day tourist visa.

I see things going the same direction. I've always been pretty anti-dashboard because of the lack of long-term utility. If you want to make data-driven decisions, you need to spend the time codifying the decision making process and automating that. Automated actioning off data is far more impactful than automated visualization of data.

When it comes to business stakeholders, the biggest obstacle is trust. If you're not a data person, or a developer, decision logic being gated behind code is a scary black box. "If I can't control it, I can't trust it". That feeling gets even worse when we build systems that are controlled by AI or ML.

I think we need more solutions for data teams that allow business stakeholders to take part in the automated workflow deployment. Let them see how things are connected together. Let them verify that the decisions are being made correctly every day. Let them tweak levers so they have a say in how things are working. That's the only way to move beyond the current environment where everyone wants a dashboard, but no one looks at it.

That's a big problem I'm aiming to solve right now.

This is the reason I hop companies every ~2 years. The 3-6 month period after joining a new company is absolute bliss.

Because of this I am less attached to the work, there is more wiggle room, and I am less stressed about meeting deadlines.

Expectations from management will also be lower because you are a new-hire without any context. I'm not even going to get into the huge salary bumps you'll receive by hopping instead of waiting and fighting through performance reviews for a raise...
Reality disagrees with your theory though. Most companies that get their data breached are still in business and class action lawsuits aren't even a thing in most countries in the world (maybe the US is the only country that has that?).

The watermark is an extra threshold. It's like an extra bike lock, they'll get the bike with only one lock instead.
It could be that you are still a product engineer, it's just that your customer becomes other engineers in your company and your impact and experience can be magnified. As you gain experience you become more capable of successfully delivering products that other engineers rely on.

A pharmacist’s professional role is as an expert on medication, and their scope of practice includes refusing to fill therapeutically inappropriate prescriptions. Normally this serves to catch dosing errors or drug interactions, but it’s also a safety net for other inappropriate prescriptions. We don’t put pharmacists through 8 years of post-secondary education to blindly fill whatever a physician writes for.

In the US, the requirement for pharmacists to police prescriptions even goes as far as criminal liability for dispensing inappropriately prescribed controlled substances (see: “corresponding responsibility”).

Choosing to dispense, or not dispense ivermectin isn’t going to rise to that level, but no state Board of Pharmacy is going to take action against a pharmacist who judges that ivermectin is inappropriate for a COVID diagnosis.
