>Some teachers thought that's a good idea, but I can tell you writing in gloves just gets annoying.

At risk of starting a Pythonesque masochism contest, you're lucky you were allowed gloves! Our teachers wouldn't let us wear coats or gloves when the heating broke down because "we can't see your uniform and it doesn't look smart, anyway it's not that cold". I went to a comprehensive school sandwiched between two private schools so of course my school had an institutional inferiority complex!

Also there's no way I could work well at 10C/50F, I think a company that insisted on such conditions would have trouble with resignations pretty quickly!

Is the construction industry really known for resisting the adoption of new materials like that?
How do you enable an extension (this one) ONLY on youtube?
For sure. I like IntelliJ, all I want is for it to be snappier; it gets pretty laggy with bigger files (like, more than one screen), it seems to have to do a lot of work that interrupts the main UI thread when it comes to redoing syntax highlighting and error checking.

I mean, the main reason why I'm not using vs code for most of my work is because it's cmd+click to go to definition isn't as good, auto/hotfixes aren't as good, and refactoring support is pretty much nonexistent.
Thanks. Will check.
I'd be surprised if AutoHotkey didn't offer something like that. I miss it every day on macOS.
This can be solved by doing the following:

instead of checking "currentPosition" and "futurePosition" for a collision per frame, instead compute a sphere using those two values as bounds, and check if there are any collisions within that sphere

Now, we've to somehow decide the order. I say with start at Amazon, the parent will say Facebook and someone else will say Apple. We are back to square one. Therefore, my suggestion was to take uniform and consistent action. Not, go after one organisation because of popularity.

Ask HN: How to pick a software tool? (e.g. MySQL vs. Postgres)
I am currently going through a process at work to choose a new software tool. I once read an article on HN that described well how to best make a decision on what product to pick and not fall for things like comparisons using feature matrices - however I can't find it. Does anyone have any good links to such articles?

Example decisions are: MySQL vs Postgres, GitLab vs GitHub, Ubuntu vs RedHat
There’s a pretty good argument for functional monopolies facilitating innovation! We like our transistors and all that.

An entire microcontroller dedicated to storing the state of a different microcontroller. Crazy.
That's strange. When I open a 1m+ LoC in Rider it takes around 2GB of RAM [1] but is still very workable.
Ofcourse it is not extremely fast but I am always impressed this even works with all the code hints, indexed code and what not.

By the way, sometimes a corrupted cache can be a problem. You can fix this via File -> Invalidate Caches.

> they should staff people 24x7

Perhaps, if the workload for the overnight team is low, instead of having them sit in an office from 1am to 6am in a dark room staring at a flickering screen you work on alternate solution for staffing.

How about, as a solutution to the problem, we let them work from home and provided they have all the tools at their disposal, upon recieving some kind of notification, attend to the situation.
I just went through comments from all the times this has been reposted in the past 10 years, and this is (so far) the first time there aren't any complaints about not working in their browser! I'm counting just the submissions that got >10 comments.

This does not have any water simulation ! how is it comparable?
this looks very slick. I have a very weird requirement when it comes to reading digital content. It has to be 100% distraction free because otherwise I end up getting sucked into Netflix or HN which is a lot less mental effort than getting into the flow of a new book. I don't trust myself not to open another tab and start researching about some things in the book, which leads to quickly checking slack or something else. This rules out anything that runs in a browser which I use to access all my other things. I also turn off the network on my other devices and on my laptop when it's reading time, not just to avoid notifications but to create a higher barrier for myself in case I "feel like" changing my mind after 3 pages.

If all this feels a bit sad it's because it is.

What I love about Kavita is that it seems to be much more social because I can lend books to a friend. I haven't checked if this is supported but the killer feature for me (for which I'd adjust my above rules/behavior and switch to Kavita) would be collaborative reading where we can put books on each others reading list, share notes or comments, or view each others progress. Like Netflix guest accounts with the difference that you can actually do things together (so way beyond Netflix today)

The "sharing" sounds a bit intrusive but it would help me a great deal in keeping up with my daily reading goals knowing that it's public to friends. It would be cool for book clubs too. Kavita is the first software where such features would/could make sense (if not then maybe in a fork?)

Right now I convert all my formats (epub etc) into pdf and then after disabling my network, use zathura with a dark theme to read. I keep notes with markdown files and once I've finished the book I reneame the pdf from book_title to read-book_title. Reading it a second time the filename becomes read2-book_title and so on ... When I share a book I send the file to a friend (only if they ask) who put it on their reading list and (10/10) forget about it forever.

It's a dumb approach for single user where the goal is to read as much as I did as a child without distraction. It's actually worse an experience than having the physical book in my hand which I can smell and then put on a shelf like a trophy and be proud of or lend it to a friend who will only ask for it if genuinely curious because they know once they return it they probably need to say a word or 3 about what they thought of it (or admit they didn't read it). With digital books I often finish a book and still don't know the author because the only time I've seen the cover was when I was at page one. And even the title I forget quickly regardless how good it was because of the same reason.

Kavita makes me a tiny bit excited, ... if not about it's current state, then about the potential it could have.

Recently bought transatlantic flights through Google Flights and it gave better results than all the traditional players in the space (skyscanner, kayak, etc). It's not just something to pad out search results, they put some effort into it.

Also, for every single flight they have the mass of carbon emissions displayed right next to it? Seeing that huge figure (1 ton!) definitely made me more hesitant to fly. Could this be... an altruistic design decision? From Google?
> I sure never did. If anything, I want their IDEs to be more involved and sophisticated.

Personally I want the language functionality to be involved and sophisticated, and the IDE itself to be as lightweight and simple as possible. Jetbrains IDEs come with a decent performance penalty from the IDE itself, and I think eliminating that would be a great benefit.

> For C#, Visual Studio is pretty good these day

We’re not talking about visual studio. We’re talking about vscode.

You wanted to know why someone would use it over vscode: the answer is that vscode has poor support for some languages.

Whether you personally prefer the vscode tooling in say rust, to the debugger in clion is your personal choice; but you are misrepresenting the situation if you say the latter, with different/more features, is of no value to anyone.

> I'm not sure how much of JetBrains' IDE work will translate over, and I'm not sure how much of it they want to bring over.

Well, if you caveat your opinion with the assumption that the product will be worse than their other existing products, poorly executed and poorly supported, that’s a fair reason to think it won’t be any good.

…and to be fair, jetbrains have struggled with their various online service offerings.

…but, if you assume it’s a failure don’t ask why you might think it would be useful.

You’ve already decided that without trying it. What can I say? You’re right. If it’s shit, there no reason you would use it over vscode.

Maybe it will be; I personally, don’t think it’s clear at this point that’s the case, yet.
41.5K years is VERY EARLY for such a fancy piece of jewelry. Most objects of the Aurignacian period[0] are usually plainer and more basic. But there are a few non-tool objects, like a flute and a figurine. So this clearly shows the search from humans for "pretty" things beyond simply utilitarian objects (tools). Exciting!

I think the environmental damage is going to be a big issue in the near future, those hundreds of millions of plastic masks getting thrown away every day don't just dissolve into the aether; they stay around where they will pollute the environment especially the oceans. As far as I'm aware this topic hasn't been discussed at all by my government let alone a plan put in place to mitigate this environmental harm.

Wow, you sound exactly like the apple users I was referring to, except I can't tell whether you actually are one. :)

The point is that yes, "my usb drives" get polluted the second I give them to an apple user even if they just read files off them.

Same happens if an apple user accesses a writable network share on my NAS or my PC.

I care, because I constantly have to be on the look-out then to not accidentally add them to tar files, backups etc.

When I navigate my own file collections I just don't want these things lying around my folders everywhere, distracting me for zero benefit.

That's all work and mind capacity that apple happily, without asking, offloads onto me, because they won't bother _their_ users with it and because wtf am I supposed to do, refuse to interact with all apple systems?

Brussels is increasingly English-speaking in general, and folks who work in the train areas in particular have to be fully fluent in French, Dutch and English, where the latter is just the default communication choice if you detect someone is not a native Dutch/French speaker. As well the area around the Noordstation is particularly unwise for a tourist to visit for cafés, so it is extra important for them to get across where you ought to go.

An amusing version of this happened to me in Porto recently at a bookshop. Many moons ago I was fluent in Brazilian Portuguese, but today that's retained mostly in reading, I can't speak well nor can I easily follow European Portuguese speakers. I was browsing the Portuguese literature section when the shop keeper asked me question (which I didn't catch), and then upon ascertaining I spoke English she rather forcefully explained where the English section was, but very confusedly watched as I politely kept where I was. To make matters probably more confusing I ended up buying a linguistically avant-garde book that I soon learned really is best suited for native speakers (Guimarães Rosa, the author, is basically a Brazilian James Joyce)
Everything already has a shorting mechanism. Can you cite a single instance where short-selling has destroyed a legitimate business, ever?

This irrational fear of short selling is such a modern midwit view. There is way more value to fraud on the upside then there is on the downside, and we see that everyday.
It depends on the application, but CLIs can make testing GUIs easier in two ways:

- you can test the rendering layer in isolation by using the GUI to display two pieces of information manipulated by the CLI and comparing the renders, eg blank screen -> add some object.

- you can comparison test the GUI, eg pressing button X produces the same result as CLI option Y.

Properly testing a GUI requires having an internal CLI, in places I’ve worked — eg, app companies.

> In a professional context, you usually end up doing 80% of your coding in one language, so it only makes sense to use an editor that semantically understands the language to amplify your coding.

Another consequence of that point is that VSCode is this editor if your main language is TypeScript. At work we use VSCode for JS/TS, and Visual Studio for C#/C++ on Windows.
I think your analogy is not valid. Colonizing Mars is like having another home in different country in case that current home is destroyed by fire.

To me it sounds like this is used to test a rewrite of all their IDEs because it is written from scratch.

I can imagine if this becomes a succes they will update all their IDEs or use Fleet as the new platform.
>You’ve already decided that without trying it. What can I say? You’re right. If it’s shit, there no reason you would use it over vscode.

This is a false dichotomy. You say "developers who rely on heavily automated/magic tooling" and "those who use the terminal + a basic text editor.". What of those that use heavily automated tooling but understand it? Of course people that understand stuff are better than people that don't, but this isn't directly correlated to terminal and IDE.

> I know a lot of people will disagree but my advice to more junior guys is always get rid of the toys and learn the tools.

You could make the same argument for writing assembly by hand, which will surely improve your skills. But that doesn't mean that a compiler is a toy. Those that learn and know the tools know their value. Senior developers at my work have a deep knowledge of lots of tools, because these tools can be very useful and save you a lot of time. They also build tools for others, to encode their knowledge and make everyone save some time.

Raycast has this neat feature called Navigation → Search Menu Items which is essentially the Help → Search feature of macOS.

However, you can bind it to any shortcut, so binding it to Cmd+P would give you a command palette in any app (and then you can exclude e.g. Sublime Text/Merge who already have their own palettes).
