Yes, most current job offerings may be for React, but Angular had that spot a couple of years ago and ruby on rails was the cool new thing to work with before that. My point is that this is not a permanent thing. Technologies change, preferences change. React will be replaced with better tools for the job (IMO Vue and Svelte are better designed than React), I am sure of that. Besides, if you are going to hire by limiting your pool by frameworks, you are doing things wrong. Any decent developer that can work in an Angular codebase should have no problem with React, Svelte or Vue.
What I continue to find shocking is just how many people commenting on this post are lining up to accept another authoritarian measure for a very small amount of additional comfort of mind.

Having just watched "No Time to Die," Rami Malek's character has a classic vilian diatribe in which he says:

The thing that no one wants to admit is that most people want things to happen to them. We tell each other lies about the fight for free will and independence, but we don't really want that. We want to be told how to live and then die when we're not looking.

It strikes me that perhaps storywriters keep adding lines like this to movies, books, etc because it's actually true for a significant amount of people. And that's really saddening.
I mean, Linux supports more hardware than any other OS out of the box.

> It's almost like if Apple called PCs "exotic hardware" for MacOS.

Ummm, good luck running modern MacOS on PC hardware.
> has to invent the workarounds for you to use this machine?

I never said they had to. They don't have to support it or any machine.

However, that doesn't change that there are problems that can be attributed to Linux. For example, sleep/wake's incompatibility with the "Modern Standby" is a Linux problem that affects a wide variety of laptops.

It also doesn't change that it is tiresome when people come on to internet threads and say "I've had no problems - you must have exotic hardware!" We don't have exotic hardware - Linux just doesn't support certain common-enough hardware well. That doesn't necessarily mean Linux is to blame for it, but don't blame the user's "exotic setup."

Edit: On the contrary, it's often the people who say they have no problems who have the real exotic hardware - because they bought System76 or Purism or an XPS or something designed to be Linux-friendly.
Wow, thanks for the unrequested spoilers. You’d think an article about storytelling might be a little more careful.

"giving feedback probably won't work, so just give up"

"I categorize this software as 'safety' related, so it must be perfect on the first try and never need any improvements"

Existientialism is bad for your mental health, friend.
I have to comment on the incredible discrepancy between HN threads about self-driving cars and threads about driver-safety technologies (like this one).

Threads on self-driving are often enthusiastically supportive, with many comments about how computer control will ultimately be safer because computers don’t get tired, distracted, drunk, etc. and people do.

But then threads like this one are usually highly skeptical about how well the safety technologies will work, and over losing control over one’s machine.

Maybe these are just totally different sets of people commenting; I recognize that HN has a big and diverse audience. But even if that is so, it seems interesting to think about who chooses to comment on which topics.

Because ultimately these sort of “smart” safety technologies, and self-driving technologies, are qualitatively the same: you’re ceding manual control to a computerized system. It’s just how much: does the ML system have to reliably interpret “impaired” driving, or does it have to interpret everything about driving?

It seems like there is some sort of uncanny valley where ML-powered technologies are perceived as bad when implemented partially, but good when fully placed in control. That doesn’t make logical sense to me but I’d be interested to hear different views.
Also in Michigan when there’s heavy snowfall you can’t really see the lines on highways and such. You might be starting and stopping frequently due to icy roads. That could be considered “erratic”.

This is a very difficult problem to solve. A breathalyzer before engine ignition is likely what will be installed in every car starting in 2026.

There's a risk of course. Falling down the stairs could lead to death after complications. But it's not as out-right bad as you might assume, and crawling reduces the fall risk a bit.

Falling is a risk even with normal walking. But if you don't have some movement in their life, they degrade faster and die sooner. There is risk from all choices

A good idea is to never use a large corporation for important things like email, because these are built on maximum scalability and therefore practically always have lousy customer support (automated replies & chat, etc.). I'm paying for the same small email provider I used more than 20 years ago and it has always been worth every penny. If an issue comes up, I'll call their customer support or write an email and they fix it within minutes.
That is the root cause of why this is being introduced and why there's a fight. As a society, the US absolutely refuses to prioritize safe driving over access to driving. We accept road deaths as the cost of business for our suburban sprawl and car-only infrastructure. Cars are the only option because so many places don't even have sidewalks, forget buses and bike lanes. Hell, in red states, you'll be terrorized by drivers simply for being on a bicycle.
Someone asked about the Hunter Biden files. I responded with g n e w s . c o m . It took a few weeks, but they finally found it and suspended me for it. Others they suspended for mentioning the news organization that mentioned gnews.
It seems to be a tooling problem. But it's a large deficit, and there's a catch 22 in that the people most concerned with tooling try to use architectures with mature tooling, and don't write it for the immature ones.

There is also the problem of a lot extra code volume without visible interfaces separating them. Once it's a networking problem, is it on your code, on the driver, on some other part of the code that is interfering with ours? But that also is a matter of architecture details and tooling.

I don't know what the argument is though. You have agreed to this Content ID system and automatically distributing the ad revenue based on YouTube's discretion when you signed up.

Note that the system also has advantages. As a publisher you are protected from lawsuits most of the time, the worst case outcome is that you don't get revenue from a video or that you get banned from YouTube.

I'm not saying that the tradeoff is optimal for creators but I don't see how what YouTube is doing is illegal. Unless you try to assert that you were forced to accept the ToS because YouTube is effectively a monopoly. But I find that a really hard argument to make.
Exactly. That wasn’t specified when I bought it. It’s a regression.
How would you ever discover content worth watching?
I'd say someone earned a free AT-AT for the bug report.

On the one hand that's a minor quibbling little problem there, "I have to use tools on this one part when disassembling it", and then the dearth of such problems during their run is an amazing testament to their engineering process. That they have fans that can catch this issue and explain it so well is another testament to the standards they've maintained.

Can we call "lego instructions" an example of software design? I think we must. Programs designed to run on meat CPUs of unknown specs.

I think in these cases, this kind of setup can be largely automated since there isn't really any unique/quality content that'd take a person time to create - and getting smaller view counts over many channels perhaps mitigates the risk of having the channel removed

I've seen similar with sport highlights searches, screenshots and automated commentary scraped from a news source. They don't get many views but there's hundreds of them, particularly for sport behind paywalls. No one wants to see them but they turn up in searches at the right time.

Must be demotivating for content creators to be continually dealing with this kind of thing.
Seems to me that the parent comment was claiming to know.
That appears to be in reference to the act of running macOS on non-Apple hardware. The reference to paid commercial support is what will have the Apple lawyers knocking.
Typically solutions like that will work for a few months or years and then you are in much bigger trouble than before. Highly annoying. This is because just like every other server you will need to keep it up to date, you are going to have to deal with being falsely labelled as a spammer, you will have people attempting to abuse your server and so on. I'm still doing this but the overhead is such that I'm tempted to just let it go and move to Fastmail or something similar.

No, I also told you what I think it would do. Create a corrupt local oligarchy that is extremely hard to disrupt. It would create a mediocre, low productivity, stagnant economy shaped by the most extreme form of protectionism I have ever heard of.

>Everything else can easily be worked around.

Your use of the word "easy" for something that would require a root and branch redesign of company law, tax law, employment law, competition law and scores of other laws in every country on earth tells me that you really haven't thought this through. Not to speak of changing the ownership structure of tens of thousands of existing companies.
[dbt Labs employee here]

Cloud costs increasing could be a sign of more data being utilized productively. In any way, a mixture of data engineers and analysts is a healthy way to scale a dbt project to increase speed-of-delivery of analytics requests vs cloud costs. We at dbt Labs encourage the "analytics engineering" mindset to bring software engineering best practices into the dbt analytics workflow (git version control, code reviews), and so cloud cost considerations should be incorporated into mature dbt development practices.
That's the difficulty here, people are already arguing past each other because nobody seems to agree what the ISA is for.

If you look at the early history of RISC-V, it does indeed look like as something built for teaching. But I don't think that use case warrants all the hype around it.

So how did all the hype form, and why is it that there are people seemingly hyping it as the next-gen dream-come-true super elegant open developed-with-hindsight ISA that will eventually displace crufty old x86 and proprietary ARM while offering better performance and better everything? Of course that just baits you into arguing about its potential performance. And don't worry if it doesn't have all the instructions you need for performance yet, we'll just slap it with another extension and it totally won't turn into a clusterfuck with a stench of legacy and numerous attempts at fixing it (coz' remember, hindsight)!

And then if you question its potential, you'll get someone else arguing that no no, it's not a high performance ISA for general use in desktops / servers, it's just an extensible ISA that companies can customize for their special sauce microcontrollers or whatever.

Of course it's all armchair speculation because there are no high performance real world implementations and there aren't enough experts you can trust.

My first reaction was "what's a floppy, grampa?", but then I remembered my first computer was an Apple II and that it took me more than a year or writing and reading cassette tapes before having the money to buy it a floppy.

And floppies are also extremely important to retrocomputing, as it is frequently the only way to get data to and from an old computer.
Banks don't lend out deposits though - a $100 loan creates both a $100 liability - the value in the customer's account - and a $100 (plus interest) asset - the loan itself - which also balances out to $0. The process literally creates money, meaning a bank could theoretically lend money even if it had no deposits at all. The constraints on making loans come from central bank requirements and regulations, not deposits made.

The fractional reserve model makes sense for commodity-backed money or things such as stablecoins that are backed 1:1 in some way, just not for banking in the modern economy where physical money is only a small part of the money supply.

Rumor I heard from someone in the industry is that the patents have expired, but now the original holder pressures the few fabs to refuse work from competitors or get black balled.

Backups are worthless unless you try to recover; support is worthless unless you put a ticket in and see what you get.

Before I migrated my domain and old emails to Fastmail I contacted their support twice to see what I got. Once I simulated an account lockout, the second was more of a technical problem. I can't remember the exact steps that I needed to take, but I do remember that their support was quick to react, had surprising technical depth, and fixed my "problems" faster than expected. I had no problem trusting them with my data.

As an NVidia shareholder let me say thank goodness. NVidia is having to pay more than the market rate for ARM in order to get it from Softbank instead of them just selling ARM on the open market. But because nobody in their right mind would trust NVidia with ARM, ARM under NVidia is going to be worth less than what the market would pay for an independent ARM. And everything NVidia wants to do with ARM they can do by just buying an architectural license like everybody else.

The whole deal would have been a huge destruction of value for the sake of Jensen Huang's ego.
I got my eBay account "permanently suspended" the other day. I was traveling for Thanksgiving and they had a $10 off $10 promo if you login to the app for the first time. I used the app from the Airport wifi to purchase two books for my friend I was visiting. Upon landing, I had received an email about my "permanent suspension" and if I had any questions, to contact eBay support.

I thought, OK, I tripped up their IP security rules. I'll just call them and get it sorted out. Except... you can't call eBay anymore. Their phone lines are a recording that tell you to login first. When I login, all the support options for my now suspended account are missing. There's no messaging, phone, text, chat, or email options provided to me. Only an endless loop of support articles.

Cross-checking this against my friend's account, he has all the options available and I do not. So in essence, they've shut me out from all communication and I can't ever get this account recovered. Many big companies moved to this communication model during covid, and it's extremely disheartening when something goes very wrong like this. If this is the new normal, we need to make it illegal.
Even trying to report identity theft to the police is a massive pain. They’ll try to pawn it off on the police department where the fraudulent transaction occurred and that PD will tell you they don’t have jurisdiction and it’s really the PD where the victim is located who should investigate. Most police departments just don’t have the technical knowledge to look into these things. They send you around in circles, and maybe to an FBI form that goes nowhere, and wait for you to give up.
In time, hopefully, we'll have books that explain this charlie foxtrot. There's so much to the story, I can't wrap my head around even the outline. Especially hard because every actor can only tell their own facet, and I'm not smart enough to connect the dots.

Obama promised to end Guantánamo Bay's detentions. I've long wanted to know why that didn't happen. His book Promised Land lists some of the challenges, but left me with more questions. My takeaway is that a cleanup effort that tries to follow the rules is all but impossible when the mess was created by ignoring the rules. In other words, maybe ultimately we have to ignore the rules to cleanup snafus; which is a very scary prospect, right?

The 5-4 podcast, about "why the SCOTUS" sucks", has episodes about the ridiculous, contradictory, nonsensical decisions which ultimately allowed these extra-legal detentions. Stuff like Justices, IIRC, not understanding that their prior decisions to ignore habeas corpus prevented detainees from ever appealing. Real facepalm stuff. If the Justices don't even understand their own snafus, what hope do the rest of us noobs have?

As an American, Guantánamo Bay is just such an embarrassment, fills me with impotence and despair. So big, so ugly, I can barely comprehend it.
> problems that can be attributed to Linux. For example, sleep/wake's incompatibility with the "Modern Standby" is a Linux problem that affects a wide variety of laptops.

How can you attribute these problems to Linux? The "Modern Standby" relies on proprietary drivers and closed specifications, which are only shared with Windows developers under an NDA. Linux community has to reverse engineer the hardware to make it work. You should not expect that it will be successful for "a wide variety of laptops" for free.

> On the contrary, it's often the people who say they have no problems who have the real exotic hardware

Yes, but it does not matter whether you have "exotic" or "not exotic" hardware at all. What matters is whether it was designed to work with Linux.

P.S. Standby and wake-up work 100% of the time on my Librem 15, which was designed for Linux.
