>>RHEL 9 Beta ... has fewer changes that require admins and IT Ops to learn new ways of doing things. Familiar with RHEL 8? Then RHEL 9 Beta will help you feel right at home.

Changing from SysV (RHEL5) to Upstart (RHEL6) to systemd (RHEL7) was a lot of churn. RHEL8 stuck with systemd but added Wayland, replaced iptables with nftables, and yum with dnf.
As a Deaf lipreader, fuck you. Sincerely.

What's that? I should get a clear mask? How does that help me understand YOU?

Prior to this whole thing I had pretty decent communications skills and could understand most of what was said to me after a life time of struggling to learn all sorts of tricks and tools to be able to understand my way around mumbling, muttering, accents, etc etc. Since everyone started covering up their faces the only recourse I have is to ask for the person to repeat themselves. Again. And again. And again.

When that person finally unblocks their face long enough to actually COMMUNICATE with me? I sincerely bless them for their efforts to get the message across. I despise the assholes like yourself whose only reason to exist is to make communication harder for people like me.
There can be but we know there isn't. The labour shortage right now is definitely a disconnect between what employers want to pay and what employees are willing to work for.
Another alternative:

Economy have never recovered for the Main Street since 2008 crash and all these news about labour shortage is just to manufacture consent to suppress wages even further.

No ground is being broken in this comment section whatsoever, and I'm not in a position to break any ground either even if I sit for a while and think really hard (...fuck).

But to contribute what I suggest (again, without breaking ground): capitalists take 30% of all income generated, for themselves. I haven't looked up the financials for John Deere, but I mean that's the ratio when you take the U.S. as a whole. That 30% is a wayyyy bigger piece of the pie than divying up a CEO's income, which is probably a tiny part of that (on average) 30%.

Nat founded Xamarin which was acquired by Microsoft in 2016. Github was acquired in 2018 and Nat was already an Microsoft employee at time.

So Nat departing now is actually 5 years post the Xamarin acquisition (when he joined Microsoft).

https://www.linkedin.com/in/natfriedman/

EDIT: what's also interesting is that Thomas Dohmke joined Microsoft in 2015, moved to the Github division around the time of the acquisition (2018) but only became CPO 4 months ago.

Neat!
There are companies that will offer that on anything you purchase. And I do mean anything. Though if you didn't pay, would they really go through the trouble of collecting on the debt.
For anyone who says, "But what if $WORKPLACE doesn't allow you to plug in USB dongles or use NFC!?!" my counter is then maybe you shouldn't be logging into your personal Google account on that PC. And you probably have an IT department who already have a solution for 2FA that you're required to use.

NYC is going to be an interesting case. As soon as pedestrians get comfortable that the cars won't hit them, I suspect a lot of jaywalking will happen - I wonder if they'll get anywhere at all. You sort of have to br an aggressive driver too with taxis and delivery trucks, so I'm really curious to see how it all works out.
This flowchart would be correct if "prevention" referred to "covid infection", but unfortunately it refers to "covid infection with symptoms". Transmission is not prevented, in this case.
Awesome story. Gives me a lot of confidence in the value that Mantis provides.

There will always be people who don't need or want to speak to a human, but having the outlet to do so when it's useful to the customer can make a huge difference.
Isn't the similarity that they're all designed to fill the same niche as C and C++, and be better at memory safety than them?
That youtube-dl moment was a really defining moment for me, particularly as a heavy user of youtube-dl and having contributed a PR here or there.

GitHub handled the situation really well, both in terms of the course of action it took, as well as setting up new procedures and a legal fund to prevent future incidents like this. Along with the EFF, they have actively promoted the right of developers (and FOSS) to tinker.

I think people don't realise how impactful youtube-dl going the wrong way could be.
> That's because of how heavily all modern X11 toolkits and clients now depend on a plethora of X11 extensions and their XLib-based libraries

Then Wayland will be more a nightmare still, since they moved everything but core rendering into extensions and say "just use wlroots" to deal with it.
Right. Time was of the essence with this service, and it was still very reliable and scalable in its original simple form, because it leaned on a lot of existing Google infrastructure. Later on it got upgraded to follow the rules better.
Reading up higher will inform you of context, but to reiterate:

It could be a tragedy of the commons effect.

Hah! I actually did exactly that! (ran Android in a VM just for 2FA) until I realized I could do it from the command line easily with `oathtool`.
Waymo seems to do lot of these sort of publicity stunts. As far as I know their service and lidar mapping is very limited to some suburbs of Phoenix
> Wait, are they actually test driving self-driving cars like the HN title says? The article seems to indicate they are manually driving the cars to get the mapping.

My read is that they're doing both, but the latter will be starting immediately while the former is implied to come after they've amassed a certain amount of both mapping and training data.
Did you read the article at all? They aren't talking about the pay as it is a separate issue. There literally isn't time for the managers to train and onboard people resulting in a bad experience for the new employee, the customers, and sometimes even resulting in termination for violation of policies the employee never learned about. You can't put knowledge in someones head with just money.
It means, among other things, that no US company or person can sell them technology or offer technical services under threat of significant penalty. How is that meaningless?
The reason you don't see any tearing is probably because video players under X have gotten better about "guessing" when the frame is supposed to be displayed. The knowledge to do that has accumulated over the last 30 years and it's a pile of hacks, and it's still possible for them to tear under various circumstances because X is still fundamentally an unsychronized protocol (unless you use a compositor with frame sync).
Can't say I didn't take some inspiration from that idea!

The future you cite is also our past. In the 1930s most large urban cities had plenty of non-car transportation options, including electric-powered or cable-pulled streetcars, overhead-powered electric as well as gas-powered buses, trams, light rail, underground subways (since early 1900s in NYC), and hackneys of all sorts in the US and Europe and many other places around the world. In fact, it was the spread of gas-powered buses that killed much of the electric-powered streetcars in large cities in the US in the 1950s. With the growth of suburbs and loss of streetcars, the growth of cars in city centers grew unchecked as did air pollution and smog.
I've never seen people social engineer codebase maintainers into patching them an exploit into it, that was absolutely brilliant.

I've had the same experience. Signed up for Advanced Protection Program not long after it was announced and I've been very happy with my MFA experience with Google for years now.
Very nice to read a balanced paper, but a hospital might very well ( and, I think, illegally ) give some transplant people priority. Isn't that what happened to Steve jobs? No one is supposed to jump the queue, but he did. If 'queue jumping' is illegal, and happening at one hospital, I could imagine that as the kind of stunning bias shown in the data, and everyone involved would say it isn't happening
> And I am sure, if you really think about it, you know this yourself.

I already disliked systemd on its own merit, but the condescending "if you disagree you're a troll or an idiot" attitude of its proponents really helped cement the feeling.
Elon

Edit: lol, this will be the most downvotes on a char count basis I've ever received. I thought it was generally accepted that for better or worse, he does not mince words.
The market isn't quite free atm with the government directly competing with companies on wages.*

Extended unemployment benefits may now be over, but many are still not hungry enough to accept current wage levels. Post-lockdown demand is also different as many people realized life is better spending time with family than burning the midnight oil just to purchase more toys that will never be used.

This is not to say wage increases are bad. They are good. This is what we would want to see: jobs paying too little not getting applicants, forcing companies to increase wages. It is, however, bad that the government interferes.
Couldn't read after they said Huffpo is Journalism
Yeah, this is a really weird milestone. A policy of eager commits, never squashing, and extreme indecision could easily net 1k commits per developer day. Not saying that's what's happening here or anything... but this is a really bad metric for progress.

But I find it noteworthy (inasmuch as I'm writing this comment) because the phenomenon is real. I've heard first-hand horror stories of shops that use commits per day as a serious metric, and the result is horrible.
Having ridden in a Waymo in Phoenix a month ago, I don’t think they are anywhere close to being able to handle Manhattan traffic. As an example, during my ride the Waymo driver missed turns several times forcing a reroute around the block because it couldn’t change lanes because the driver in the next lane didn’t let it in. A human driver would have sped up or slowed down to get ahead of or behind the blocking car or they would slowly inch over the line to force themselves in. The Waymo car just maintained its speed and lane position until it was too late to turn. I can’t imagine how the car would fare in NYC with its famously aggressive drivers.

Of course there can be a labor shortage. If there are 10 open positions but only 8 qualified people, then there's a shortage. It is impossible to fill all 10 positions, even with all the money in the world.

why and how would news about a labor shortage manufacture consent to suppress wages?
I mean, everyone's gotta start somewhere. I'll give the author props for coming up with an idea for an experiment, documenting it, and sharing their results. Not a whole lot of people do that out in the open, and it's great to see a bunch of responses with suggestions for further improvements. :)

A factory provides jobs to locals. A factory stimulates the economy by creating local economic activity (suppliers, logistics, construction, restaurants).

A crypto operation might provide a small fraction of everything above while also producing nothing of tangible value to society.
I'm with you, but this is not the topic.
So affluent people can go on as usual and low income families are priced out of travel and heating.

It's not that simple.
Right now the public perception remains that "good" VR/AR headsets are always five years away, since the 1990s.

Whether or not they did their research, whether or not we are just a few iterative improvements away from mass adoption, there's still just too much feeling of "same hype cycle, different day" from the average consumer (which is the point of that article, and my implication that VR is dead right now but it was Facebook's lucky albatross so they're tying it around their necks in the hopes it is still lucky while dead [1]).

What kind of data is even worth storing? If it’s text based it’s not hard and it’s not very large. If it’s media it’s probably some uncompressed videos and pictures that are overly large, phones that take 16mb photos that aren’t going to have more useful information over compressing it to 400kb. I am sick of my phone taking large photos that don’t have any clear benefit to me aside from clogging my phone with unreasonably large files that don’t look better, Apple wants to sell me iCloud by not allowing me to take lower resolution images.
nat's only starred gist says drop ice: https://gist.github.com/nat/starred
Thanks. Now that I see it, it actually is a bit confusing, I'll add an about section or at least some UI cues.

I think there is a CLI tool already. I remember checking it out when I was building this.
I would want to see language versioning baked into the language. Something like being able to tag a class or module with a specific version of the language. So that if the language introduces a breaking change, I can just tag that module with a version, and then continue developing with the new version.

Another interesting idea might be introducing architectural layers as a language concept wherein you can specify which layers can interact with one another and then provide some enforcement mechanism in the compiler to prevent layers from interacting
There are quite a few carbon neutral chains that people do launch on. Most businesses do require energy but they try to offset it. People are trying to shift away from mining for the largest NFT blockchain though, ethereum.
My first thought was "GitHub has some underappreciated feature or functionality that saved somebody's ass at their job, and this is their write-up".
When a leader lists each of these accomplishments, it’s less “See what I did” and more “To the team that did this: I see you, I recognize your contribution”.

I think all these comments are incredibly childish. It’s a nice goodbye letter from their well known and visible leader.

Reddit-level is a moving target. Both are trending in the same direction, one faster and earlier than the other.
Mostly started by Google as "Do No Evil" PR, and later by Apple's creating products that “enrich people's lives.”

I dont think it is this letter in particular. So may be it is not fair to criticise it. But my guess is that the accumulation of these cooperate speaks, PR, and the past 10 years of main stream media riding along these PR to new height, just happen to tricker OP this time around.

And it doesn't seems to be an American things either, I read a lot of Fortune 500 post, somehow these over the top PR speak are mostly related to tech only.

However, I still think Github and Nat deserve a lot of praise for what they have done. Lots of changes and improvement happened after the acquisition. And not only credit to Nat but also to Microsoft.
The lines from Moses Saunders to the plant are direct. You can even see them on google maps if you zoom in and follow them.

He is resigning in protest:

McFadden resigned from his role as a consulting architect of 15 years on the university's design review committee over the project, saying he was "disturbed" by the design of the building, The Washington Post reported.

Munger Hall was conceived by billionaire investor Charles Munger, who donated $200 million to the project, which has an overall budget of about $1.5 billion.

While the gigantic Munger Hall would have fourteen entrances and exits, 94 per cent of students living in it would reportedly be in windowless rooms. The single-occupancy bedrooms would instead feature virtual windows that would simulate sunlight.

Although he was a consulting architect for the university for 15 years, there was no review of the design offered, and "no changes are possible".
For decades the cancer treatment industry has beat the drum of early diagnosis and treatment. I looked into statistics a few years ago, and the drum beat appears correct for skin cancer.

I couldnt find statistical benefits of early diagnosis for internal cancers. The statisticians remove people from the counts if they die during treatment. So the 'early diagnosis' numbers were meaningless because they stop considering all the people in the original group.
I like and respect nat because he never seemed afraid of engaging directly with customers (here on HN, on Twitter, etc). You need to talk to customers at the start of founding any startup, but to carry on doing that long past the point of being able to have a team to do it for you is pretty awesome. I hope the next CEO is equally open to listening to us.
While I don't remember which video it was - I think this is a pretty close estimate to it[0].

The premise was to only operate the miner in cold months, when the outside air could easily cool the system. I didn't fully re-watch this video but it does give a good setup and explanation for it.
If the attackers "covered up the security cameras with items of clothing as soon as they entered the property.", then there will be plenty of footage for the police to review showing he lied, quite aside from all of the cameras they would have passed on their way to a luxury penthouse apartment next to a museum in the middle of a national capital.

For glue code scripts like this you usually don't end up using encapsulation and inheritance or any other fancy OOP design patterns. It's usually grungy IO-bound procedural code, the sort of thing you'd write in bash if bash weren't terrible for long scripts. Don't burden it with premature abstractions. If you end up needing a class, just write the class later.
Glad to hear!

A lot of my outbounding efforts with Mantis have fallen flat when I sent something that was more or less templated, but have had better results with something far more personalized.

Here's a fantastic article that might be worth a read: https://cloutly.com/blog/cold-email-template/.
I admit the voice/video chat in teams is really well done. But that's because they are using Skype's technology for that. But the actual interface, messaging, and overall experience of Teams is really bad. Just yesterday I wasn't able to do a cmd+a to select all the text in my message box. It's a clunky and annoying daily experience
He cannot say it in his own words because it's a ritual. All formulae here are ritualistic, following a corporate protocol for such speeches. The speaker's agency is,limited to choosing which formulae to choose, and filling in the predefined slots in them.

The point of the ritual is to signal the world that all goes as planned, while giving away as few salient details as possible.
So where do you stop? Do I need mandatory testing for all illness as well? What about inebration, should my door have a BAC meter on it? Every car??

The amount of draconian authoritarianism people are willing to accept here is insanity to me. I often read Sci-Fi dystopian novels thinking "How could a future like that happen really" Now I know... people are willing to trade every ounce of freedom they have for the perception of safety. Very sad
Ah yes Elon Musk also tweets about “TITS university”. I’m sure there’s no one that finds issue with that, but doesn’t have the power to speak against it.
It's surprising the amount of shit workers have put up with until the current health crisis gave everyone time to stop and reconsider their priorities and goals.

The main thing was the idea of a reliable, steady paycheck, which vaporized in a flash for many blue collar workers. If you can't even have your act together enough to deal with a brand new employee on their first day, how do I know the check will drop at the right time?

Not enough respect, not enough pay, is no longer acceptable. Employers need to step up their game.
That last sentence alone "if it's so bad why read it?" is clearly something an upset person would say.

The current title on HN is misleading. They are not beginning to test their self-driving system; rather, they are beginning to collect map data, which is a step that needs to be done first.

You shall try Teams on windows over another window. The cream of GUI design. Good luck telling which window is active and which GUI element belongs to which window.
In this case, I actually learned quite a bit about how map making was done in the early 1960s and the technology and processes involved. I learned more in a shorter time than many YouTube videos of today. And todays' YouTube videos suffer from self-promotion and more overt advertising than the more subtle propaganda of these old videos.
