The alternative is to embrace minimalism / the FIRE lifestyle and hopefully skate by long enough to not have to work by the time the company folds and live off of investments -> then into retirement).

I think most "underwork" on the job is a motivational issue and stems from one of a few overlapping reasons:
1) No way to promotion/advancement (dead end job)
2) Overqualified and bored
3) Unclear goals, no feedback, and/or undiagnosed ADHD.
4) None or negative social value to the job - for example selling shady financial products to seniors (so that slacking becomes a social good)

Have you ever been stuck debugging something, maybe even something that should be simple, for days at a time?

I think because, in the course of actual work, we encounter these kinds of things and because of innate social reasons, yes, you're unlikely to be called out.

ActiveRecord was, even then, a much better ORM than exists in the Node world today. It was full featured and well hardened, and required basically no setup other than a class declaration. Plus, you could always drop down to the SQL if you needed to. Generally, it was a joy to use, and the performance was usually good enough.

At some point, I gave up on even trying to use any Node ORM's because they were clunky and offered no value. It was easier to just drop straight to a knex session and write the queries natively.

> SSH has included file encryption for a few versions now

Mmm. I don't think so. Recent OpenSSH includes file signatures not encryption.
I don't think this line of dismissal necessarily fits. If we ended up having to expand physics to include some new (today seen as mystical) property of the universe, then you are essentially wrong here. With QM (which I doubt is related to consciousness) we had to add unmeasurable quantum phase to everything and accept certain previously-"nonphysical" new properties of systems. Similarly with other revolutionaly theories.

Magic can be disproven by explaining the phemonen with a conventional physical theory.
> A lot of people would argue that they're both middle ground parties that pretend to have big differences for the show of it.

Even though a lot of people argue that, if it weren't true things would be far worse. Despite the differences, there needs to be something resembling a governing consensus.
Apparently so. (Even if the panels are producing << 8kW, and the electricity is consumed on site.)

Most companies don't meaningfully incentivize ambition. At most companies, even tech companies, if you save them a million dollars you'll be lucky to get a used Red Lobster gift card. If companies want ambition they should incentivize it rather than only rewarding the corporate ladder climbing sociopaths.
60 hour workweeks are absolutely sustainable?

Not to disagree with your experience at Azure and GCP, but the grandparent specifically mentioned their parent entities: Microsoft and Google, each of which have several divisions apart from their respective cloud divisions.

Keep in mind that Azure and GCP are playing catch up to AWS, so they necessarily have to run a tight ship in order to close AWS’ lead.

So its possible for laxity to exist in other divisions in a large company, as long as the money keeps rolling in, e.g. the Windows division at Microsoft (which still enjoys a good share of the desktop market) and the Search division at Google (which still enjoys a good share of the search market).
The problem described isn't a metaphor or a proxy; it's not about some other thing like mutual information. It's about exactly what it says it is: evenly-spaced (arithmetic) subsequences.

More formally, given k, you have the set {1, ..., N}, and you want to produce a map from {1, ..., N} to a two-element set (which we can denote {blue, red}) such that there are no blue arithmetic sequences of length at least 3, and there are no red arithmetic sequences of length at least k. The question then becomes, given k, how large can N be with this remaining possible?

There is another way, you can declare option as

type Option[T any] *T

nil is None

opt == nil instead of IsNone()

func Some[T any](t T) Option[T] { return &t }

*opt instead of opt.Get()

option.Map(opt, func(x int) double { return double(x) }) for the monadic behavior

I wish there was type inference for function arguments, so that you could write func(x) { return double(x) }. Maybe in a couple of years the Go team could be convinced.

You aren't a 10X developer whose laziness makes you a 1X developer. You're a 1X developer period. 10X developers wouldn't be on HN posting about how they coast and pretend, they would be doing literally 10X the coding as you (and me too).

The reality is this: spend your attention wisely and don't worry about anything else. Attention is the real value of time. The more attention you can pay to producing good things, the more benefits you'll create. The more attention you pay to frivolity, to mindless consumption, the less positive impact society will feel from your existence.
Because logic is subjective. Not symbolic logic, of whose ineffectuality you lament, but rather the machine in each person processing information through values and experiences to produce ideas and actions: your logic is not another's. Some may disagree with my calling this "logic," preferring a mathematical approach, but it is a useful definition if the goal is persuasion rather than purity.

If you can learn how a given person's logic works, you can generally feed them the inputs necessary to produce the desired outputs. Some may find this immoral, and they may well be right in certain value systems, but they are also needlessly hamstringing themselves to bask in self-congratulatory failure while their opponents likely have no similar scruples. It's utilitarian, to be sure, but I'd happily mislead people to prevent genocide, just as some readily mislead the public to cause genocide.

A shortcut for working this angle, especially en masse as we see in political debate, is taking advantage of the many identified cognitive biases.
Indeed, I'm going to try holding out on Windows 10 until the next version. Win11 seems like another Vista or Windows 8 to me so far. I can't even run Win11 with my current hardware anyways for silly arbitrary reasons. I have an Intel Skylake CPU + need to boot over legacy BIOS due to a on-board RAID. Both work completely fine and my PC is still performant enough, but don't meet the requirements.

Managers are supposed to weed out people that slack off enough to slow delivery and cause headaches for their peers.

I do know some engineers who seem to coast or just be unhappy 70% of the time, but the 30% where they show up is insanely valuable. Those people can stay in my org.

What I really hate is the guy doing what the OP is doing while his colleagues are working long days and weekends picking up the slack. That's just being an antisocial leech, and that person is toxic to a team and to morale.
> Some people judge the language on their ability to get work done with it.

Really? Safety and correctness aren't relevant for you? Then why even bother with go instead of Python or a Lisp?

For me it's crucial that a programming language contains tools that allow me to definitely rule out as many errors as possible. A powerful (and sound) typesystem does just that.

That history and cultural wisdom was based entirely on the oppression and subjugation of women. So, of course many straight men will be swayed by those arguments. But objectively speaking, all of this collective wisdom has created a situation where women still suffer constantly at the hands of men, and men aren't happy either, and are arguably increasingly unhappy! If you want to continue down that path, good luck.

In my eyes this kind of feels like another sign that things have stagnated in tech (on the fundamental innovations front, not the 'people are doing things' front). There was a massive explosion of thing happening a decade ago but today not so much, even to the point that you can get away with using years old tools without really much disadvantage.

Oodles of anecdotes and hyperbole. As someone who moved from Ruby/Rails to Node, my happiness index has been steadily higher. Why is it that we get a rise out of bashing one ecosystem to favor another?
If women in east Asia actively seek out partners because they feel pressured to get married, could it also be said that men in the West actively seek out partners because being a single man is seen as loserish or otherwise low-status? I'd buy this being a part of it. I also don't want to discount more intrinsic motivations too. Most people have a sex drive regardless of any obligations felt from society -- that is an undoubtedly biological component.

> You answered your own question. You are directly and knowingly contributing to the worsening of society and you should feel ashamed for it.

That doesn't really answer the question though. If knowingly making society worse were the standard for feeling shame, I think I'd be too depressed and shame-ridden to even get out of bed. I mean, you want to talk about damaging society: every single day I get into my car and burn fossil fuels on my commute to/from work, which is essentially slowly killing the planet. I know it's bad for society, but I do it anyway. Knowingly. On purpose. Can you imagine how psychopathic I am to treat society with such casual disregard?

As another poster put it: "To feel shame is an emotional reaction to violating standards of morality."

What I'm saying is an actor in American society is beholden to the standards of morality as defined by the leaders of its community, voted into office by the people in its community. It's been shown for a while now that this behavior is accepted, expected, and tolerated. It's not only unpunished when caught, but rewarded. This is the standard of morality in my community. If shame is tied to a standard of morality, which is orthogonal as to whether it helps or harms society, then there is no basis for shame for this behavior.
The radical-ness of this doesn’t stem from the moral implications, it stems from how reality-denying it is. Young people have discarded the taboo of sexual promiscuity for at least a few generations already. But you need more from relationships than just sex, which is why we have the concept of “settling down” eventually to have a long-term, committed partnership.

Sexual compulsions are very influential, but people almost universally find relationships revolving primarily around sex to be completely unfulfilling (eventually).
This may sound ludacris, but consider GPT-3 doesn't actually understand the text it's outputting so it's a bit of a mystery at to why it outputs a given bit of text (other than blaming it on the model). The problem isn't just dangerous knowledge, but wrong knowledge and liability. If you were using the model to give out, say, medical advice, and it's wrong and someone takes the wrong dose of a medication or gets wrong information on what to do, who is at fault? The patient? The company running this program? OpenAI?

Either way, OpenAI isn't willing to bear to cost of someone getting injured.
One way I've seen people "break in" is by being hired into a related role then expanding into the embedded side. e.g., someone I know was hired as an app developer, but the guy writing the firmware that the app connected to got sidetracked by another project. The app dev learned enough about the chip & the firmware to get the bit he cared about working, then discovered he liked doing firmware and started working on both the device firmware and the app on future projects.

Firefox should go all the way on this. Exploit bugs, modify binaries, whatever it takes. With user consent of course. If the user says they want Firefox to be their default browser, Firefox is justified in modifying the operating system to achieve that. Ultimately Microsoft is powerless to stop this except by using their antivirus to block installation of Firefox in the first place, and I'd like to see them try that because the blowback would be epic.

Egypt's grain imports were caused by bad governance and theft, not by population. Mubarak instituted a bizarre form of reverse land reform in which he stole land from families who had farmed it for ten generations and gave it to cronies who attempted to grow fruit and flowers for Europe. The cronies were not farmers, their crops failed, the desert rolled in. Truly, the apex of capitalism.

Chelsea Manning wasn't tortured. The USG even paid for her gender reassignment surgery, and she was released early from her sentence. No reasonable person can call that torture.

I mean to solve climate change we need a lot of things. More that solar and wind. Frankly we need to be carbon negative, which will require some ccs, reforestation, land management, fixing the reefs, and more. It's a complex problem that if you treat it as being simple you're taking steps backwards.

A type system being turing complete really isn't a problem.

In general, I expect most developers aren't working 40 hours and many don't come close. (The amount of upvotes on this thread seems to prove that.) For me, it is hugely dependent on the environment.

By the time I left my last position, I was hardly doing any heads-down work. The team was an internal platform team, and the leadership was actively against sourcing any feedback from the eng/data teams we were meant to serve. The only things that were ever on the roadmap was long-term refactors that no one was asking for. My feedback on the direction of the work was by-and-large ignored, despite the fact that I was the only person writing any code on my project.

I started a new job and it's been a night-and-day different. Furthermore, the lead engineer of the project is a grinder which motivates me to at least pull my own weight.

TL;DR if you're an eng manager and want your team to be engaged, then lead by example, give them tangible goals, and listen to what they have to say.
I always seem to have hardware that hits an edge case for Linux support.

Take my gpu's sound support. If I run sound through DisplayPort it runs 40% slower and an octave an a half lower pitch. Over HDMI it runs fine. Oddly, if I have an HDMI device attached sound over DisplayPort runs fine, until the HDMI connection or computer goes to sleep.

My solution ended up being to get a cheap usb sound adapter and skip the gpu audio. As the HDMI would only do 4k at 30hz and DP does 4k at 60hz.
I actually think you can write and test a NAND gate solution in any external environment that is much easier for development and testing (say plain C on Linux),and then transpile it into any other turing complete arch. Actually this could be a really interesting project to work on: 1) Write a VM in C and 2) Write a transpile program for another turing complete arch.
I think many doctors work much more than that (60-80 hours each week) for pretty much their entire careers.
