> Some of them I’ve seen even just left it at 2x scaling and did the whole video with a giant cartoonish UI that had no actual usable space.

Either that or they keep it at 1x scaling and just scale the fonts instead which is a pretty degraded and compromising experience if you use GUI apps and not just the terminal.

But this is conveniently omitted when singing praises about Framework. The laptop has a broken display that'll give you nothing but headache if you enable fractional scaling and if you disable it, you're compromising after spending potentially thousands of dollars.
Amazon seems to be hurting for hires. Many people I know including myself who large tech companies normally would not go near got several Amazon recruiters reaching out during our last job hunts.
I work with Rust as well but be realistic. There is very few jobs for this language compared to others.

I don't think your comment adds anything other than a "I work with Rust :-)" humblebrag
I don't know what to tell you: we hired quite a few people this year to do Rust (both programming in it and auditing Rust codebases). And we're a small company.

I assume that it will continue to be easy to find a job as a COBOL programmer for a very, very long time. But what kind of metric is that?
> Plenty of people have claimed and continue to claim that a monorepo lets you magically do atomic API migrations, and skate over how the fact that many APIs go over RPC these days.

Nobody that knows what they are talking about makes this claim. People making this claim are confused and misunderstand. Just because there are a group of people who don't understand the thing they are advocating for, doesn't make the thing any better or worse for whatever purpose they are espousing it for. It just means that they don't know what they are talking about (see also "even a broken clock is right twice a day").

To wit: if I'm using a monorepo to produce my back-end service and the client libraries I ship to my customers, who must update their deployed version themselves, how do these proponents of "magic monorepo atomic RPC rollouts" propose that works exactly? Clearly, it doesn't. Updating your own environments is really no different. All deployments are eventually consistent. C'est la vie.

> whereas in a monorepo you have to make a very deliberate effort

When dealing with API or data model changes, you have to deal with the same, deliberate effort to schedule/stage the release of your changes regardless of approach that is used.

For most CI/host combinations this requires an ad-hoc solution involving calling APIs that's hardly trivial, both for triggering the CI and blocking the PR. We didn't want to change our perfectly fine solution. Thus, the monorepo killed a handful of birds with one stone.
We're a 3rd party seller on Amazon marketplace.

Support for issues is non-existent. It's just random people overseas copy pasting irrelevant shit into the ticket and closing it without reading.

We generate several million $ worth of fees for Amazon every year.

You would think that could buy a couple of hours of competent support a year for us, but apparently not.
We are all about junior people making a mistake, but, heaven forbid it's a recruiter and not an engineer (recruiting for an SDE II would be a junior recruiter). It's sort of a dick move for a CTO post that, since the "NN" still potentially identifies the recruiter. This recruiter will be at a minimum the subject of ridicule or worse, let go.
Sure, but it is like that with a lot of stuff you read. I read the economist weekly and they constantly cherry pick whatever makes capitalism and deregulation look great. Still the economist is high quality journalism and has many insights worth reading.

Graeber also obviously has an angle but three are still many interesting insights and angles. I don’t think anyone is ever going to give e complete unbiased version of anything. Better to read different perspectives with an open mind and a healthy does of scepticism.

Reality is that Linux is gradually moving toward making modules in Rust. So check your sources, they appear to have nothing to do with actual reality.
In my experience Rust has become the go-to language for applied cryptography and is becoming increasingly popular for embedded/iot development. We're currently hiring for both and experience a scarcity of developers.
2-way data binding is still a useful pattern with discipline, and still also common in React (using event handlers).
> I find the javascript-native flexibility of JSX far more expressive than any custom templating

JSX is the most significant contribution that React brought to front-end programming. Personally I don't always use React, but I use JSX quite often. It's intuitive in a way custom syntax (the dozens of) never will be.

Can someone unpack that? That is, there were trials. There's data. Etc. Why is "little known"?

Granted, trials are not full roll out? But "little is known" sounds like a dice roll.
You’re not negating anything but a strawman here. You commented too level on an article on someone simply talking about how a compiler whining about something unrelated to the article.

If you were responding to some rust fanatic or if the article was some sort of rewrite in rust call, you may have a point, but it’s nothing but some developer interested in improvements in the compiler. God forbid anyone work on anything other than some mainstream technology.

> why do you think i'm backing my argument to jobs with Tiobe?

You may not be, I assume because it immediately followed the statement about jobs in parentheses.
Goes to show the value of a good post title. This one (we are commenting on) goes straight to the point and it follows it is more attention grabbing than the linked post.
This is a weird metric to use, given that Rust was incubated at an open source company (Mozilla) while Go was developed for years as part of a private project. Put another way: Rust's development was much more public than Go's was; why should that be held against it?
To clarify for people who only ever have seen English (or English derived) keyboards. The backslash (\) is usually bound to a third level shift. On some Windows you can reach third level shift with either a Ctrl + Alt or a single AltGr. On most linuxes AltGr is the only way to reach third level shift. This is a problem since AltGr is usually on the same side (right hand side) of the keyboard as the \ key, so you usually have to do some finger gymnastics to type it.

On Macs Option double functions as a third level shifts which causes a whole different set of issues as many keyboard shortcuts also use the option key, so typing \ becomes ambiguous in some contexts.

O M G. By commenting that for a circuit to work it needs an energy source, I supposed you would understand that there is no such thing in vaccines.

But the general population has no idea about this because it isn't taught in school. They just have facebook and whatsapp fakenews. That's why I propose the topic be included in education curriculum, it has been causing problems for some decades
In the first `async_std::task` example, we see that `JoinHandle::cancel` is an async function. I'm curious what would you do if you didn't care whether or not the cancellation succeeded and didn't want to await the cancellation. Would you wrap the cancellation in a task?
Ah recruiters. Several years ago I recall the story of one of the creators of a programming language who was asked how many years of experience they had with the language and the response "all of them" was perfect. I can't recall if this was Gosling/Java or Van Rossum/Python (or someone else entirely).
> laptop-sized keyboard

Interesting - I actually switched to a small keyboard about a year ago because I was getting shoulder pain from my right arm hanging so far to the side so I could work the mouse. The smaller keyboard forces both of my arms closer to my body, and the chronic pain I had in my shoulder for a year or two has disappeared.
I think it’s starting to become a thing, but even in the US the last time I tried it just wasn’t working.
> I think it's exceptionally possible to build enough shelter space, and adequate funds for most large cities. However what makes it possible is the people who object to construction of new shelter space, who oppose the creation of safe parking spaces, and the creation even of encampments with basic services.

If you mean that it's possible except for the voters then that may be true but it's kind of irrelevant.

> IMHO the impulse to keep people out of their city and their neighborhood results in encampments and generally worse conditions both for those with and without houses.

It's entirely sensible to oppose encampments in my neighborhood.

Fires, crimes, and assaults are regular occurrences at encampments and homeless people in Seattle are effectively immune from prosecution.

I'm saying driveway guy is how almost all businesses work. Even more so if he incorporates and the business goes bankrupt, instead of him, if the business fails. That mundane, nom-exploitative setup is the norm, not the exception, for business owners. That IS capitalism, just as much as the billionaires. If not more so. Most businesses are very small.
My point: Occupy had two goals that I kept hearing when I went: 1. the bailout and recovery from the crash of 2008 should help the victims of the crash, and not the perpetrators. And 2. "it's not about the policy, it's about the process." That is to say, the people camping out at Occupy were trying to evangelize the GA model for decision making to the world at large.

Both failed miserably. And I blame the process.

Now, if you want to set up an anarchist space for yourself and some friends and live in it or just have it as a clubhouse for some endeavors, yeah, go for it. I really do look forward to see the first dead mall in my area that's taken over by anarchist squatters.

But the GA process 1. took too damned long. 2. was dominated by people who loved the sound of their own voice, 3. resolved conflicting interest by sheer attrition, by which faction would be last to drop out of the meeting, and worst of all, 4. encouraged people to reinforce their cognitive bubbles before social media came around to do the same thing. The worst of those bubbles was the one that wrapped around each and every Occupy camp and made them unable to understand how they were seen by people 30' away.

All this is on the process. And on Graeber.

> [1] A single byte is sufficient --- there have been far less than 255 headers defined since the beginnings of HTTP; maybe custom ones can be defined in an additional space, but a byte is actually already more than sufficient to convey the same information that would take dozens of bytes in the current text-based protocol.

You're probably only talking about ones defined in something like an RFC. I'm pretty sure there are far more than 255 different HTTP headers in use just by my employer's in-house stuff.

> more than sufficient to convey the same information that would take dozens of bytes in the current text-based protocol

It's 2021, who cares about dozens of bytes? I'd wager that's far less than 1% of the size of most HTTP exchanges, and it means generic tooling can actually show you something useful for all that custom stuff it's guaranteed not to know the specifics of.

Zillow can have better information on the market value of a house that it has worse access to information about than the owner.
This anarchist is very supportive of non-authoritarian voluntary socialism. I hope that my support and those of many others will eventually bring it into existence. I value that workers be free, more than that they be organized. In many cases the former will depend somewhat on the latter, but that is contingent not essential.

You’ve got cause and effect backwards. More people in an area take up less space because it’s more expensive and vice versa when living far away.

And of course you can induce demand with housing. If suddenly you could find $1,000/month 1 bed apartments in SF how many people you think would move there?
That's a funny mistake,... but that could also be the sickest burn of the year.
COBOL has an excellent job market. You picked a strange point of comparison.
This whole issue is fascinating to me and no doubt will be studied in schools in the coming years. One of the lead product designers on Zillow Offers wrote a retrospective yesterday that outlines, broken user journeys, greed and the attempt to algorithmically one-size-fits-all the whole market. He lays a lot of the blame squarely at the feet of incompetent executive leadership

From his notes: “They valued old-school growth hacks from 2007 over taking user-centered, data-informed, research-backed approaches. They spent more time flexing and building decks that drove an internal narrative of Sellers being happy, than actually addressing real and persistent product problems that ultimately led most sellers down a path where they didn't know what to expect, didn't understand the process and were inundated with calls and scheduling.”

"730 days" is, of course, exactly two non-leap years.

So it seems possible that "two years" is just an overflow in inventory management restocking projections.

The definition of vaccine hasn't changed much. You are still inducing specific inmunity to some antigens. Only now you can inject coding instead of or in addition to antigens.

Saying people are crazy solves no problem. If you think you are right then you have a responsibility to educate them. Casting stones at others won't end well.
Yeah, but that's harder in practice. You often copy html snippets into your code, for example from tailwind or bootstrap samples. This is easier in JSX syntax; you'd just need to copy and fix up some attribute names.

> The amount of tooling required to enforce dependency upgrades, code styles, security checks, etc across many repos is significantly less than the amount of tooling required to successfully use a monorepo.

This is completely false. You only need extra tooling on monorepo for gigantic scale. For 90% or maybe even 99% of companies out there using version control, plain git and a "bunch of folders" is all you need, honest to god. This way you can reap most benefits and very few downsides. Detecting changes in folders is pretty easy, as most CIs/CDs have it built-in. Ff not it's easier to program a script than setup multirepo tooling.

Try https://indeed.com or http://www.modulecounts.com instead of Tiobe which is one of the worst metrics. The Rust community's module output is well ahead of both Ruby and Go so I'd say it's fairly mainstream.

Very cool. I hope more video game hardware appears (like the Steam Deck).
