Also if you haven't been through the Steam submission process- you submit a build- they tell you what is wrong with it- you fix it and resubmit- and thats the normal loop.

This one was submit build- issue- fix issue - submit build - game "retired" - dev asks help for support- no answers- asks for more help- account censored.

The game not allowed to go through the submission process like normal.
C# switch are just syntactic sugar. nice for sure.

But if you compare F# with C#, is not just LINQ .Select vs List.map

And i am not speaking about function, who is just a part of why i like F#, not the best one

Is the different defaults who matter, who guide you to an easier code who highlight the domain

- structural comparison vs reference comparison
- expression vs statement based
- immutability

C# will catchup with some features for sure.

Lot of new C# feature remove boilerplate (file scoped namespace, etc) and is a good trend

But the core defaults will be the same.

That will not push to a single direction (if fact you have LOTS of way to write the thing in C#) while F# try to push to the same way

To do so, C# continue to add thing to the LANGUAGE.
Now is a lot more complicated than .NET 2.0

While F# try to do the same, but the language doesnt change.

An example: the async/task.

C# added the async as keyword, plus all needed to make it work, and the compiler generate special code.

F# has built that from the general computation expression feature and (recently) the state machine support.
It's case-by-case, not one size fits all. Hence why there needs to be analysis, disclosure, and regulations being followed

Same way Ken Paxton, the state AG, isn't in prison.
I'm a founder taking a significant pay cut and worked at early stage startups before that. Had a few hot new ML startups try to recruit me and their offers are nowhere near what my friends at FAANG are making.

Last time I was looking for work 8 years ago the gap was nowhere near this large.
Humble mostly sells cd keys to steam games and almost all itch games are free. How is somebody going to pay their bills with that as a marketplace? How easy and cheap do you think game dev is? Do you think that indie devs deserve to be able to pay their bills?
What's the goal of this? eating healthier products or does it minimize environmental impact? In particular, would that model scale to the whole city of Paris?
The actual pay isn't going up. The value of the dollar is dropping very quickly.
Grandstanding politicians are one thing.

Getting a prosecutor to risk their career on prosecuting a journalist for politics is quite a bit more difficult. Journalists are well aware of their rights, and have lawyers between them and law enforcement.

I think its dumb, but as a former photojournalist who had a very large oil company (Haliburton) use a very small police department to come after me for trespassing, I can assure you that the newsroom is NOT scared right now.
I haven't been able to get a clear answer for this so hoping you can help – what are companies' appetites for matching existing stock grants for senior hires? Say someone gets a FAANG or "hot startup" offer, but has $800K worth of stock (mainly due to price appreciation) at their current company vesting in the next year, is a direct match out of the question?
You should know that despite a lot of very substantive comments, you're dead.

As far as this goes, it's difficult to get inside another person's religious reasoning.
If you're clever, you can usually hotswap that drive too, since it's just a dumb SATA port. More convenient to do with the CD-bay 2.5" drive caddies.

I feel like not understanding basic things like that should get you fired. The Education Commissioner and Governor of the State of Missouri have demonstrated a lack of understanding of basic technologies. At this point, that means they lack core competencies to do their job, and should be fired.
You are the one who asked for default.

Ubuntu has that but I don't think most people use it either. I don't see any harm as an option for beginners. Not that it actually happened but my parents should be able to set up ubuntu because they don't need to partitition.

Our state government actually intends to invite all those cranks to the table and pretend like their skepticism is legitimate. That's what's going on with multiple topics -- they're making a long-term play for propagandized schools.
I have the same problems with SafetyNet as I do with Widevine.

> What's SafetyNet have to do with anything?

I thought I made that pretty clear in my post. I was addressing a post about competitors to Android facing challenges because of lack of app support from major companies.

SafetyNet helps Google maintain their mobile OS duopoly with Apple by preventing other mobile operating systems from running Android apps, despite there not being any technical reason why the apps can't run on other operating systems.

Steam was able to bring Windows games over to Linux via Proton because of projects like WINE. SafetyNet precludes running Android apps on devices and operating systems Google doesn't approve of.

Microsoft was able to bring Linux apps over to Windows via WSL 1 & 2. SafetyNet precludes running Android apps on Windows unless Google gives Windows a pass in their DRM.
I wish F# had a project comparable to Phoenix to boost its visibility.
Could do it in a single step with F12. I suppose then you still have to scroll/search to find the relevant nodes... "multi-step" indeed
One support agent? eh maybe? Multiple support agents / Escalation? yes. I think that's okay.
I've never been able to get good macro shots on a DSLR, despite decent optics and lighting, and an ok-for-most-purposes tripod. I eventually decided that to do it really right takes a massive copy stand, maybe on a concrete slab. Stuff wobbles too much without it.
Within an hour you say? That's incredibly fast. I'm impressed by that fact alone regardless of the quality of the response. I'd hae been shocked for within an hour email reply.

I would have thought using incrementing IDs in a URL was as beaten of a dead horse as sanitizing your strings in a SQL query. Then again, ACA websites behaved as lowest bidder was selected.
The alternative under consideration is a freight rail line. Presumably you could build railroads to the ports without needing to use more trucks in LA? Bear in mind that the US does not currently have any freight rail connections to Alaska!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Rupert#Seaport

>A belief at the beginning of the 1900s that trade expansion was shifting from Atlantic to Pacific destinations, and the benefit of being closer to Asia than existing west coast ports, proved wishful. Reduced transit times to eastern North America and Europe did not outweigh the fact that rail transport has always been far more expensive than by sea. The opening of the Panama Canal in 1914 exacerbated the problem.

It's hard to beat boats!
The reason the poster arrived at this is that they are valuing stock options as $0. Of course there are non-FAANG companies with liquid stock, but this seems not to enter the calculation. If you were to consider those, you'd find that while FAANG pays well, it's not _that_ much of a premium.

What's certainly true is that stock is a significant piece of the total comp at a FAANG and a startup is unlikely to make up much (if any) of that difference in base salary. For instance base salary for me as an L8 at Google is roughly 1/3 of my total comp.
The company doesn't need you. Plenty of people will take a paycut to not live in HCOL.
I can’t say for sure, but what I can say is that there are plenty of methods to track a user which doesn’t leave a breadcrumb on the users device.
Yes, this is what I am on about. Game dev's need Steam to make a living. I don't think its right to allow steam support to arbitrarily "retire" games at any point in the games lifecycle for any reason of their choosing.

There are effects in both directions - there’s both less upside due to higher taxes and less downside due to the safety net.
> the real problem

The real problem is that the response is to create the plan.

Politicians know that we don't want to change our lifestyles at all, but we also want to feel virtuous. They're doing what we want.
I know that about Trungpa - the drinking I don't mind but it's unforgivable to take advantage of people. That doesn't make his lectures or teachings any less valid. Shambhala was very important to me as a teenager so that influences my outlook.

"Free wheeling" was me trying to be light-hearted. Many of the Zen stories of Chan involve a lot of confrontation which wouldn't be allowed in a Zen temple, less about what Chan is than the way Zen stories viewed them. To be honest I don't know much about Chan Buddhism except via Zen. I lived in China for 7 years and almost everyone I knew who was lay Buddhist was more into the iconography and didn't practice (I never visited any Buddhist temple). This attitude is pretty universal, most lay Christians I've met also don't practice compassion. I'd rather people practiced and didn't care about the iconography, if I had a choice. It's hard to unravel what about the core teachings was talking to the audience and which are tools for transmission. I expect you and I draw the line at different places.

One thing I really agree with you on is stripping away the role of death in modern western buddhism. I've come to see Buddhism as preparation for death. Though honestly it's better to not to be preoccupied with it to be ready for it, and it will be far different than any story.
See https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download

Download the Sdk, who bundle both the runtime and the C#/F# compilers (everything you need to build a program) and the `dotnet fsi` REPL

All of that is open source, developed in different repos and bundled there in a nice installer.

Support all platform and can cross compile for other OS

Please do not use Mono, because contains an old version of F# and lots of quirks to use.

The current way is .NET (was called .NET Core, renamed recently) because is cross platform by design, and eventually Mono will be merged 100% there.

Plus is tons more performant and better tooling
It seems to me that risk taking is probably deeply cultural, and is also likely effected by both policy and economic status (collective and individual status). It's probably hard to know how to quantify all of these different effects, but I hope some people are trying to research this!
Interbanking is as mess, but the standard everyone is settling on is ISO 20022 messages and the plumbing will slowly be refactored for pushing these messages around.

To add to the stories from this plugin:

Years ago, I had this installed on the family computer and my sister was writing a school report on weather in Google Docs. The plugin as it existed then did not affect the document as she was editing it, but it _did_ manage to sneak its way in when she printed it out to turn in, without her noticing.

Needless to say, her teacher was not amused and I ended up going to see him to explain how that was not her fault.
Where "unencypted" means "turned the web page over, and read what was printed on the back of it".

It seems stupid to us, but non-techies just won't understand unless we come up with reasonable analogies.
There’s probably a big difference in the kind of risk taken. The safety net might lead to starting a coffee roastery vs a VC-backed tech company that will create a thousand jobs and massive advertising revenue.

Not sure about founders, but if you're looking to hire top talent you need to pay them, give them the promise of meaningful equity. Software engineering is one of those professions where you don't work a 9 - 5 job. I'm constantly thinking about problems at work, while i do mundane tasks like cleaning my apartment, or doing the dishes.
> Arch is a full time job to maintain

I've never understood that sentiment. Are there things I don't know about I should be doing?

I installed Arch probably four years ago on my laptop, and have never had to do anything but install updates and read the announcements on archlinux.org since.

I do understand the appeal of Manjaro - I did use it briefly when it first came out - but I don't see how maintaining Arch Linux would appear as being particularly complicated. I literally don't do anything with it I wouldn't do with any other OS.
It's definitely not a bank in Canada.

A TD High Interest bank account has a 0.050% interest rate after $5,000. Before that the interest rate is 0.000%.

Don't worry, as long as you have $25,000 dollars in there, they'll waive the transaction fees every month ($5 per transaction).

I might as well stick it under the mattress and pretend I don't have it at those rates.
Do you know by chance what breaks? For example, would immersed [0] still work, or tethered Steam VR?

Yeah that's not a "competitive" difference any more, that's approaching levels of annual compensation nearly a full seed round for a whole startup.

I used to buy into the whole risk vs reward of startups, but the numbers are far too biased towards founders and big tech salaries now for any individual contributor actually paying attention to the market to think about a startup job.
I still think the governor can be seen as indirectly responsible, since this is a result of insufficient security auditing.
> attempt to embarrass the state

I hadn't realised the US had kept lèse-majesté when it broke with the UK (even in the UK, the last prosecution was in 1715, so this is particularly retro of his governorship...)
> though now isn't necessarily the worst moment.

Chattel slavery, the Civil War, the Trail of Tears, the internment of Japanese Americans... need I go on? Anybody who thinks America might be in a worse state now than ever before needs a serious reality check.
Lol serves them right for not reading far enough to your moral of the story.
What you said may be true for an individual, but not necessarily a small company. Because of socialist regulations and taxes a small company may have higher startup costs and it may be difficult to lay off employees, which makes hiring someone more risky, along with expanding the business.
Ok so what if they collude like humans do? Is that ok? Steam support agents are humans not smart contracts with immutable code.

I was in the same situation about 5 years ago: a lot of experience as a backend engineer and no real experience in frontend. Today, I am quite proud of what I know and built: noticeable.io, especially the dashboard.

My bet was to "learn" about the Web platform and not a specific framework. However, to build a Single Page App, you need a library. At that time, I fell in love with Polymer as a minimal library to create a Single Page App. Nowadays, this is replaced by Lit (lit.dev). The library is minimal and aims to use the Web platform as much as possible. I suggest giving it a look.

Besides, when I say "learn", I mean developing a project or something from scratch. You will most probably end up using TypeScript, Jest, Rollup/Webpack and Lit ;)

Good luck!
Either contracting, or alternatively, consulting. Companies like Cambridge Consulting and et al (please correct me if I'm wrong, I only know this through word of mouth) earn more in line with our US counterparts supposedly.

Additionally, our country is much more focused on financial services. You can make 2-3x the average engineer salary there. The rest of the market seem content paying far below, and also content having an eternal manpower shortage as a result it seems. The vast majority of engineers I graduated with have ended up in sales engineer roles to be honest, where they can earn commission more in line with the salary they deserve at the cost of doing something they don't necessarily enjoy.

It baffles me that companies are quite content to pay a half decent tech recruiter 70-80k, but continue to offer jobs to the engineers they are trying to hire at nearly half that.
If you double the focal length you also have to double the sensor dimensions (to get the same angle of view) and hence double the size of the CoC - so you end up with f^2/f = f. That is, you double the numerator in the DoF formula because the CoC has doubled, and quadruple the denominator because the focal length has doubled, with the end result that the DoF halves.

Your mistake is one that’s easy to make and one that I’ve made myself before. We’re not trolling you. You’re just losing track of a factor of f and thereby getting the wrong result.

By the way, I also agree with your overall point about smaller sensor cameras being better suited to macro photography. It’s just that your f512 claim is based on a mistaken calculation.
Isn’t it insane to change your types to accommodate this? You have to change all fields accesses, it behaves differently, you lose non-nullability…
> there is no rights that suggest you can force them to sell your product.

I must have missed where the poster said what Steam did was illegal - could you point it out to me?
I remember another meme where govt says "you don't have anything to hide" and then the other side saying "then you don't mind me publishing all of this secret government info then?" and then getting very angry at the other person.
At the point it was "retired" or banned essentially- there was no escalation, no warning and it was through a single agent.
See that's what people just don't get, pyramids are very understandable structures.
Its disingenuous to state cases which arn't applicable to this case (humble selling keys when they also sell full games without keys) (itch having free games when they also have paid games), and then using that as a strawman of what I'm suggesting
Because of HN no-politics type of policy, the only time HN can get riled up is when the politics involve tech. It's not that HN readers have no interest in these other topics. There's limitations on what the man will allow you to discuss about the other man. Hi dang!!!
I like the aesthetic of the page and understand they are "talking their book"... but I have to wonder if there is any merit to the claims they state on the web page: "Today, the last generation of technicians is retiring faster than the next is being trained to replace them. ETA International reports that there is a critical shortage of electronics technicians. Universities educate electrical engineers but do not usually train technicians for electronics service and repair." [1]

Is there a real demand for these skills out there? What does the pay structure look like?

I assume these types of jobs would require lots of travel if you are not in a big city... or there are few opportunities if you do not live in a place with lots of industry. I have so many questions... As I near retirement from my first career, I think about doing something to stay challenged into my 50's and 60's.

Someone once took a photo in a hospital waiting room. There was a screen in the photo with a browser window that listed the queue of patients waiting to be seen (first name + last initial). I zoomed into the photo, typed the URL in my home machine and sure enough, the list of patients actively waiting to be seen loaded up.

To make matters worse, incrementing a number in the URL cycled through different hospital waiting rooms.

I emailed the vendor who build the tool about the issue and they responded letting me know that system worked as it was designed, and that no HIPPA violations existed since there was no full last name.

I meant to make a bigger deal about this, but then got busy.
yep thats okay, thats kinda how a business is ran. Most people call them "co-workers" not "colluders"

I don't think they meant to imply that all people who imprison reporters are definitionally fascist, but that fascists definitely imprison reporters as a matter of course. The claim was that accusing someone of imprisoning reporters of being fascist is "ultra far fetched". But if imprisoning reporters is something that fascists are wont to do, then it doesn't seem to me that questioning if these people are fascist is "ultra far fetched". You could also want to know if they were socialists if that's the thing you believe socialists do.

Indeed they can’t. So don’t depend on that.
I’ve been seriously into photography since well before usable digital cameras were a thing. I have used very expensive cameras, lenses, and lighting rigs with 35mm, medium format, 4x5 and pro-level digital. I am under no illusions about the difference between a high end dedicated rig and what my phone can do. But I still find it amazing and delightful to be able to get such great results from a device that fits in my pocket, I have with me all the time, and also does so many other things. It’s all about context.
I never said that the poster said that.
That's what a bot would print.
