> Writing a piece called “Beyond Smart” where you literally equate yourself with Einstein in the first paragraph is a special level of arrogance.

He didn't equate himself with Einstein, in either the first paragraph or the rest of the essay. Furthermore, I interpreted the "Beyond" in the title in the sense of Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil" - "Beyond Smart" doesn't mean "extra-super-duper smart, above and beyond smart". It means, we cannot ascribe such things to a simplistic concept of "smart", such as the kind that would be measured on IQ tests.

thanks for the insight. either way, would be nice of them to either open source their solution (or if they are using someone else's point us to which one they picked)
It means something, which in this case means "taste is individual". I prefer to take the advice of my green tea supplier, who tells me to use 75°C water for brewing my tea. Using other advice is up to the user. Not my monkeys, not my circus.
Why is that a caveat?

It’s clear what you think, it’s just not relevant to the comment you replied to.

Security consultant who audits web applications. I’ve achieved many web shells over the years, the majority (80%) were in php. I’ve never seen an exploitable sql injection vector in anything but php.

When I make recommendations, they’re generally level headed somewhere between fix this, fix all instances of this, or just start from scratch. Php often receives the latter, and not purely on its language merits alone - my last php report was 150 pages due to frameworkless insanity resulting in vulnerabilities in almost every facet of the system (I literally got all top 10 owasp in a single app).

I don’t know what it is about php, maybe it’s the low bar to entry or lack of unit tests, but something about the languages just results in vulnerable code.
Lately, the Chromecast has become substantially worse, with many more ads and of course a stupid update nobody asked for showing kind of a tablet UI when you're in "idle" mode with the phone connected to the TV (idk how you're supposed to operate it, but I don't care, ofc it's a clickbait showcase screen).

Before the increase in ad frequency (and some bugs like a random unlinking of the device when you put the app in background) it was pretty good TBH.

But of course, everything worsens as viewership gets more concentrated and there are less alternatives.

Will there ever be a product that... just stays like it was when you bought it? A lot of things tech related seem like a bait and switch... you have this.. haha! now you don't

> First of all, it feels disingenuous to me, people who say that never actually think that their questions will be stupid.

No, I often legitimately think that my question might (!) be stupid, because I'm aware that I'm coming into the discussion with less domain knowledge and experience than the other people in the room. I still think it's good for everyone (ie, not just me) to explain. (Sometimes it's clear that everything is just out of my league, in which case I shut up and let the meeting go on.)

It’s great that you have some experience with commercial game engines. Let me caution you though that successful games are 99% choosing the right gameplay and 1% choosing the tech. In other words, I recommend getting a gameplay prototype working first without thinking tech at all and then picking the right tech for your chosen gameplay. The big mistake that developers always make is to think that the 3D engine is your game. That is false. Take a look at the top selling indie steam games. None of them use unusual/advanced tech.

Hey,

I'm the author of the post and we built the API on Kotlin and some of them are our earliest Kotlin services. We're using Micronaut OpenAPI to generate specs.

You're right in that it's hard to do many of these things in Elixir and it was a big factor in us moving away from Elixir. I wrote a bit about it here https://medium.com/brexeng/building-backend-services-with-ko...

>His hostile take to engineering -- from the fact that he OKs unsafe technology and brands it as "autopilot" to half-baked, rushed assembly processes that produces terrible quality in the Model 3s -- is the most obvious evidence that he ultimately only cares about getting richer, whatever the cost.

Funny, these are the attributes that I think make him a good engineer. An engineer incapable of building to a minimum viable product spec is not a good engineer.

The fact that he is also amazing at business and PR is besides the point.

That's because our inefficient and costly to access and high-risk legal system is optimized for resolving conflict by legal intimidation rather than actual adjudication.

I agree that a culture of non-corruption needs to be created, and that culture flows down from the top. Caltech did a good job of that with the Honor System. The Tour de France did a miserable job, as competitors feel they have to cheat in order to have a chance.

It's still not a good idea to tempt people too much, and any system should be set up to not be too tempting.
That’s easy. America is a very individualistic society. A lot compared to Asia and a reasonable difference to Europe. It works well with our “rebel” mentality and the almost pathological requirement to stand out. It works really well when it comes to innovations and fostering a productive society but there are downsides and things like this are some of those side effects.
I know we are talking far away from something that can be proven with data, but I can't imagine that friendship ever wasn't a function of time an effort.

Hopefully, the US will be willing and hungry to allow, and even prioritize, US tech companies to develop completing technology. DJI's Digital transmission and decoding, range, as well as their controllers, apps, and UI are superior to any of our consumer tech.

Meanwhile, all the local soccer moms have bent the ear of local politicians and parks & rec directors, marking public shared spaces with "No Drone" signs.

This is going to be tech that is needed and wanted for our beautiful futuristic future, or only other countries will have it... and with it they will have a major tech lead. Which is where we are now... :(

5 Ways To Do More in Your IDE
It will increase the pool of individuals competing for the job, and even encourage new political parties.

In fact, that might be the reason that politicians are paid so poorly now: they can just be drawn from the pool of political insiders and parachuted into districts.

Like another poster said, political term limits of 10 years in combination with this seems reasonable.
It's "write some Haskell", not "learn Haskell". It's much harder to learn Haskell than understanding monads, you just need to see how some look like on practice.

But, well, I don't have any reason for you to do that. You just asked how, and I gave you a way. If you don't have any interest in learning it, there's absolutely no problem, but posting "I never really tried, but that thing is bad because I haven't learned it already" FUD is pretty bad.
There's a third option, at least, that the translator has not translated the nuance of the French and so [inadvertently?] simplified the writing.

My French isn't really good enough to tell, but the semi-gratuité appeared to me as if it's probably an untranslated pun.

Thankfully they link the source which says "you'll get a demi-gratuitë". My best guess is that a gratuité is a reference to schooling as it may be from a period where schooling was starting to be given for free. So it's a burn, "you'll get a half-free/be half educated". After in brackets it says something like "pardon pour le mot", but I suspect this is read in the French as "sorry for the pun" (motte-juste sp? = pun??) and the meaning in vernacular English is then [if I'm right!] definitely "shall I call you an ambulance for that burn".

As a UK-ian I enjoyed the reference to Perfidious Albion (though note the capitalisation, as it's all a name in UK we capitalise it all but that's not French practice for such a term; this is changing in UK English though).

So, yeah, great read though, either way.

(FWIW I don't think any of this catches much light on the implicit question of my first paragraph.)

> how much does language matter in job satisfaction?

I think it depends. I hate JavaScript and Python. My coworkers don't care about language. They are working on the product, the goal is a fully functional service with a huge DAU. I can't complete product-specific tasks. I had been writing low-level software for networks, Linux kernel patches, eBPF helpers/tracers and now I'm working on hardware virtualization. In my free time, I'm prototyping devices on my FPGAs. It's really interesting. I can't imagine that I will drop my current job and will start cooking or guiding.
I think you may have just inadvertently invented the concept of Meme drive [0].

Yeah, I love Corridor Crew, but most of their videos aren't suitable here. The tech on this camera is incredible, though, something none of the written reviews managed to capture in their dry write-ups of the specs.

Love your take on the disruption angle as well. There's a good argument to be made that no traditional camera company could have released a camera like this. It would cannibalize existing products and create confusion in the product lineup. DJI, not being a drone company, has nothing to lose.
I think the main problem is that the mutation rate and transfer rate of memes is still optimized for tribal settings.

Most mutations are disadvantageous, but if you never mutate, then you can never improve, so you need some mutations to make progress.

Meme mutation rate would be influenced by the structure of the brain (i.e. how likely a neuron is to misfire or make random connections) and meme transfer rate would be influenced by instincts (i.e. how likely a person is to trust another or go along with their idea). It's possible to influence these after birth through teaching, but genetics would still play a significant role this, and genes are generally very slow to adapt.

Just a few thousand years ago (a microscopic amount of time from a genetic view), it would not be possible for humans in one part of the world to quickly spread ideas to another. If one caveman tribe develops a disadvantageous meme mutation, it's mostly limited to that tribe. That tribe with the poison meme might die out, but there are other tribes that can still exist as backups for humanity. There might be that there's a little bit of genetic meme recklessness in humans that took advantage of that for faster development (some memeticly reckless tribes got lucky and grew). But with modern, connected society, meme spreading behavior that relied on that failsafe can now threaten every human.

It will probably be several thousand years before things get better, assuming we don't drive ourselves to extinction.

There's no standard way for one page to invalidate another. I've seen some private patches to do it in squid, but that doesn't help because you want to do it for browsers.

Your options are probably:

a) redirect to a different URL as you've done by appending stuff to it

b) require revalidation on each request, recipies shown by other posters

c) POST to the url you want refreshed; post isn't cachable. Note that you can't redirect to POST somewhere else, but you can do it with javascript.

d) use XHR to force a request as another poster mentioned.

Sounds like you never used Dropbox. DB lets you share files or folders with anyone, with read-only or write access, without wasting any time whatsoever with AWS config; With Dropdox you just need a right click.

I wouldn't say it's hard to do it in Elixir; I did it as an elixir NOOB, junior dev 4 years ago: https://github.com/ityonemo/exaggerate -- if you look at the code history it was completed in about 3 weeks (but there's a reason this isn't on hex.pm; surely a company with many seniors has the bandwidth to do something like this right and share it with the community)
The senate exists because 13 formerly independent, sovereign political units decided to form a United federal superstructure above them. Some of these states had land claims that went out to Pacific Ocean at the time and it wouldn’t have made any sense to enter into a union with states that would be wildly out of proportion in potentially a very short time.

Since then 37 more states have joined, almost all carved out of territory formerly owned by the federal government itself, settled largely by people from other states and immigrants under the direction of said federal government. They were never independently sovereign units yet we all live under the political bargains that were struck to reach an agreement with the original 13.

The system was not designed with this reality in mind, it was a pragmatic decision dressed up with the political theory of the time. If “protecting minority interests” were that important, there are much better systems designs that actually are tailored to fit the political realities of America in 2021.
I think the quirkiness perhaps helped propel him to greater fame, and made his name "stick" more easily, but it's certainly not the reason he is famous or remembered. There are countless quirky no-names. He was of note more so because of his technical capacity and strong convictions for his unorthodox approach, which he voluminously described in writing, interviews, etc.
Recovery is a long road. First you need to break ties with your abuser. Stop working 40+ weeks and set limits on "on call" work. Don't check your phone on down time. A day measurement will be different for everyone, but I'd recommend going camping for two weeks without a phone, bring it but don't turn it on.

Don't bring anyone else and take time to figure you how you got there and where you want to go in life.

Remember most code is meaningless, and unless you happen to work where people's lives depend on you getting it right, relax.

I'll be honest with you. I haven't totally figured that out yet. Mostly because there is still too much uncertainty to know exactly what is going to change and when. In broad strokes, though, my plan is to arrange my living situation to reduce my dependency on products I need but cannot produce and cannot acquire locally. I think food/water/shelter is a good place to start. Do you own your own home? Do you have a well you can use if the power goes out, or do you collect rainwater? Do you have gardens and know how to preserve what they produce, or is there a reliable small farm nearby? Without those basics other types of preparations don't make much sense. After that what will make your life comfortable? I like reliable electric power, so I think a solar power system with battery backup is a good idea. I like to stay warm, so I have a wood stove. I think all of these types of things improve my life even if I expected the status quo to remain unchanged.

I know humanity lived without fossil fuel for thousands of years before we found coal, but there were societal systems in place then that supported that type of lifestyle. We weren't all driving cars to big grocery stores filled with 10000 mile products [1]. And a lot more of us were farmers [2]. Hopefully as fossil fuel resources dwindle we can restore some of those older systems, or figure out better ones. But that depends on how fast the oil production declines. And if it takes a while to set up new systems you might need to provide for yourself in the interim. What to provide is up to you. What do you need and what would you not want to live without?

It depends on the site being bought, but commonly, it's both, and also an Instagram account w/ followers. Or even just an Amazon account. Basically, instead of starting from scratch to make a site that sells, say, tactical turtlenecks, that ranks first when searching Google for that and when searching Insta, you can just buy the whole thing and have a known amount of revenue/year for an up-front cost.

We all know the drill, you get the itch to start a new project, but starting from scratch just sounds exhausting. If you've got the time and energy to put into a new venture (that the original creator no longer has), then why not take (buy) a stab at something, while standing on the shoulders of someone who's come before you?

If you already have a website selling something and just want the SEO, that's one price, but often times is an operating business including drop shipping (or fulfillment) that will generate you cash starting from day one.
