I'm glad to find that it's not just me. I was wondering what I've done wrong to wake up with 80% battery after closing the lid and unplugging it. After two swollen batteries in a MacBook Pro, I've made a habit of not leaving a laptop on the charger 24/7, but it sucks to throw this thing in a backpack and head to a coffee shop only to discover that I don't have a full charge.

I'll also add that I'm surprised at how long it takes to wake up from deep sleep. It's like a full 15-30 seconds of tapping ctrl to check if it's awake yet before my screen locker appears. I guess using a Mac for the last ten years spoiled me, because they usually wake up almost instantly.

I haven' yet tried to set up hibernate with a swapfile, but I wonder if that would be the thing I'm missing with regards to battery drain. It would be cool to have it suspend for an hour and then go into hibernation automatically, but I'm not sure if it would help. Might be to glitchy upon wake.

I realize it may sound like I'm complaining, so I want to clarify that I love this machine. The screen resolution is fine. It took me a little while to get it where I like it, but via .Xresources

Xft.dpi: 192

and

export GDK_DPI_SCALE=0.85

Everything looks nice in i3.

The build quality is good, it feels nice in my hands, and I am genuinely enjoying using it. It's been a while, and I forgot how much I loved tinkering with a Linux setup and making everything work how I want it.
I see a headline like this and I have to wonder: what are the lasting impacts of other, more pedestrian viruses? For example, I've never heard anything about how other coronaviruses, such as those associated with some common cold infections, leave lasting impacts. What about the various flu viruses?

Is it that they don't? That they do and it isn't reported? That it isn't studied because the upfront consequences of these more common viruses are so much less dramatic?

My fear is that, if this kind of reporting is just because SARS‑CoV‑2 infections are front of mind for the popular culture, these kinds of reports will be used to suggest there's more "special bad" with Covid when in fact there might not be. Bad policy tends to grasp onto any rationale it can find, and facts without context can be the worst for this.

I cannot get over how much moaning and whinging people on HN do about supposedly not being able to choose their search-engine on iOS "without jail-breaking" their device when simply switching to another browser like iCab Mobile means they can choose absolutely any search engine they want in addition to the 25 that are included by default.

Incentives set up a race to the bottom.

I worked in an environment that was like Raycast and later adopted gatekeeping code reviews. If the code reviewer wasn't happy you couldn't merge. This gives the reviewer power to have the author shape the code the way the reviewer prefers at little cost to the reviewer. And of course the authors often respond by doing likewise when asked to review code. My approach as a reviewer was to provide feedback without blocking merges, but this alone is not enough to incentivize reciprocal behavior.

There was a guy at work who would always complain about numbers that weren't given names as #defines regardless of whether it made sense or not (Magic Numbers!). My co-worker asked him why he was so picky about it. Apparently because someone did that to him.

I know nobody asked me, but personally I think your POV is right. I was listening to this podcast the other day about just this and the impression I got was "Wow, this may be good for the average Chinese person", I'm talking exclusively about the drive to enhance protections for citizens.

https://podtail.com/podcast/caixin-global-podcasts/china-sto...

It's narrated by an Asian-American guy, the article is written by a Chinese guy called Ren Yi.

I only learned a few things about China, so I'm uneducated on the matter, but I think we underestimate how massive their rural population is, and how huge the rift is between the rich and poor, but like I said, I'm uneducated on the matter.

I think it's not a bad thing if China adopts EU style protections from big companies for citizens. I don't see the problem with that. If I understood correctly, the avg CN citizen is racked with debt, schools are borderline torturous, can barely afford a home, a lot of the water is leaded, the land is contaminated, mothers can't trust the domestic baby formula or anything really, huge sexism issue for women, rape is common, theft is common, scams are everywhere and a million other issues, it reminds you of the avg US citizen and their million other issues. Imagine if the avg CN citizen ends up living a healthier life than the avg US citizen, despite the huge head-start, now that would be really sad, because it would shine a light on how stagnant life is for the avg US person.
Sadly, the answer is probably no (for the information leakage mentioned in the article).

But having an internal (even ACME API-supporting) CA is no walk in the park either. If you can swallow the trade off and design with publicly-known hostnames, I would highly recommend it.

There’s always some annoying device/software/framework requiring their own little config dance to insert the root cert. Like outbound-proxy configuration, but almost worse.

I don’t even want to imagine what would happen if/when the root key needs to be rotated due to some catastrophic HSM problem.
> (...) but the neural net still managed to pick up the sexist hiring process by learning what kinds of activities were typical "girl" or "boy" activities.

I'm not sure that's a valid take.

It's my understanding that Amazon calibrated their machine learning model to answer the question of "help me find more people like the one we already have", and they just so happened to have within their ranks way more people with a specific academic and professional background, which was happened to refer to be men who did activities dominated by men.
Any suggestions for alternatives? (apart from pinning an old version)

Where is the arbitrage? Mining crypto in Kazakhstan with subsidized energy can not do anything to reduce the MWh price in Germany. There is only up and up as energy is irrecoverably burned for crypto.

Even better, the price of crypto is so high that it can be profitably mined even in countries with very high consumer power prices. I want to see you travel to Kazakhstan and tell them that paying 35 cents per kWh now that all the production goes towards crypto has had the positive effect of eliminating inefficiencies - namely the consumption of people living there. You might not make it back alive.

FWIW the workaround in the bug report 100% resolves the WiFi issues for me (it just means losing 802.11ax support, but my AP does not have that anyway). It was definitely the most frustrating issue for me; made game streaming via Moonlight impossible.

followed by width*height triplets of raw bytes representing the RGB values of each pixel.

> It's strange that it reduces kids to a chore (although kid-related chores are WAY more numerous than the childless can ever imagine). Some of the time spent with my kid is restorative; indeed, much of the resistance to returning from the home-office has to do with wanting to spend time with the kids.

There are certainly a lot of additional chores around child raising, but I agree. This article talks about kids in the way I would have thought about them in my early 20s, long before I had kids: as a sort of chore that you had to deal with before you could do the things you really want.

The reality is completely different; spending time with kids is the thing I want to do! I’m lucky enough to enjoy my work and people I work with, but I’d still rather hang out with the kids and go to the park.

> But those fixes don't fix the already printed books.

For actual physical books (as opposed to ebooks, where making the complete new version available to purchasers for errata, but usually not new editions, is common), this is usually true for logistical reasons, though issuing errata sheets (usually online now, though the practice is older but notification and distribution was harder in the past) to keep existing users up-to-date is not uncommon.
I understand there are companies which treat Leetcode as a "representative field test", but IMHO (based on my 8+ yrs experience working across FANGM, w/ ~200 interviews conducted) any company that uses Leetcode this way, is doing it wrong.

The "right" way to use Leetcode, is to treat it similarly to how IBM does their weird IQ test screening, except Leetcode is strictly better than an IQ test. It is NOT a simulation of work. It is also NOT an "intelligence" test (thank god for that).

If anything, it is closer to how professional sports teams evaluate young athletes via a training combine or a set of individual drills/tests. Doing vertical jumps or sprinting really fast are not "representative field tests" of how well you actually play a sport (the whole sport, not just a single part of the sport), but they are good-enough filters for an athletic "interview".

However, in the same way that IQ tests are bad for a multitude of reasons including implicit demographic biases, so too are Leetcode tests flawed (including a heavy element of age-ism, as there is a strong anti-correlation between "years since college" and affinity for Leetcode-style tests).

Anybody knows research, books or else about the origin of burnout ?

My small work experience has made me isolate a few ingredients:

- loosely defined tasks
- improper team spirit / organizational communication

People feel bad when they feel they can't do their part and feel worthy / look ok / belong. Badly defined => badly trained => unfair blame (or the potential for it). They feel bad if they can't be open about issues and rely a bit on the group for support. They feel bad if they don't know how to get information (this links back to the first point).

A group is a strange soup and fears / doubts / tiny ego bursts can rapidly turn it into an acid bath.. but the opposite is true, most people want to be team players and care for a group and for a duty.

These kind of no-code or low-code tools are VERY common in enterprise, like SAP, Salesforce, CMS solutions, IBM Tivoli products, and on and on. But companies are starting to realise that those tools often have some hard limits on what you can do and the problems they are solving get so complex that hacking the tool around to solve the problem becomes unsustainable. If anything even enterprise companies are pivoting away from this kind of tool towards custom-built software.

I call it the "army of consultants problem", sure you can use a low/no-code tool, but if your problem is complex or big enough you will eventually need an army of consultants specialised in said tool to maintain your solution and you will be limited by what the tool can do. Eventually you get to that point it becomes more expensive than just building custom, but by then your company is too invested in the tool and only a band-aid ripping can fix it. Most often than not ripping it out would kill the company/product if it happens too late. Thing is, the tools give the impression they are cheaper because you get a lot "out of the box", while a custom-built tool takes a long time to do anything useful

Reminds me an article I read once, it was about why My Space failed, it propositioned that the main reason was that they were using Dreamweaver and their product was so big and complex that the devs could no longer handle the complexity to add new features or fix performance problems. And the company as an organisation could not find enough dreamweaver devs because they needed an army of them

One of the main triggers for this is cloud infrastructure is so much better and cheaper today that a single developer can orchestrate a really complex system of services and servers in a few hours if he knows what he is doing. So the industry as a whole is shifting from "army of low skill specialised devs" to "low amount of highly skilled generalist devs". You can see it in the job openings, nobody wants to hire low-level anymore, or if they do it is to support legacy systems

No, not really. In fact, some issue tracking software equate feature branches with tickets, worked on by a single person.

> For example, to assess debugging you can give your candidate some pre-prepared code with failing test cases and see how many bugs they can fix within 30 minutes or so. But that requires preparation and test calibration.

The tricky thing is that no matter what test you contrive, it's more likely to say something about the developer's recent experience than about their competency in general.

For example, I'd say I have pretty good intuition for when to just read code or sprinkle printfs or fire up valgrind/gdb/asan when debugging C. Which I guess is to be expected given that I've been doing C almost exclusively for many many years. I'd do pretty bad with Haskell; the last time I really used it was around 13 years ago. The next guy might be a bit lost with gcc's error messages since the last time they used C in anger was 5+ years ago for a small project, but they'd do well if you hand them Python code that uses a well known unit test framework or whatever. I guess that's fine if you're a run of the mill crud company looking for "senior <foo-language> developer" but not if you're after general competency.

You can try hard to make the debugging be more about the system than about the implementation but it's not easy to separate the two. You can make different tests for people with different backgrounds but that only makes calibration harder.

One trick I've seen a company do is deliberately pick a very obscure language that most people have never heard of. That can eliminate some variables but not all of them (I took the test and did well but I also spent a fair amount of time studying the language to figure out if it's suitable for a purely functional solution before handing in a very boring piece of imperative code). Ultimately it wasn't much more than a fizzbuzz.

And if there's puzzling involved, I'd say there's an element of luck involved. At least that's how I perceive the subconscious mind to work when you're thinking about a problem that isn't immediately obvious or known to you beforehand. Which path does your mind set you on? Are you stupid or incompetent if it happened to pick the wrong one today and you spent 10 minutes thinking about it too hard? Are you super smart if the first thing that came to mind just happened to be the right one and you didn't doubt yourself before blurting out an answer?

If you're lucky and know the problem beforehand, you can always fake brilliance: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17106291

That is to say, test calibration is hard and there are so many variables involved. It follows that there's no obvious right way to conduct interviews. And I guess it follows that companies who need people (and aren't necessarily experts at interviewing) effectively outsource the problem by conducting the same type of interviews they've seen elsewhere. Maybe that's less cargo culting and more just doing whatever seems popular and good enough?
As if most people would really spend 8-9 hours a day working. Most people get payed for 8 hours, but actually work 3-4 hours per day, at most. The rest of the day is spent idling, procrastinating, or socialising - and all of that is important to stay healthy.
Bottom line, humans are no equations and there is more to it than "nice" numbers.
> Work 8-5

> Study for work 5-8

That’s not normal. If you’re doing this, you’re actually working 8-8. This schedule can work for a short periods and special occasions, but it shouldn’t be your norm.

This can usually be fixed by improving your efficiency at work: Get down to business quickly and limit time spent browsing the internet and other non-work activities. Consolidate work to normal working hours, save the leisure for later.

> Gym 8-10

Also not normal or even necessary. A 30-minute gym trip is more than sufficient to stay in great shape. You can also go 2-3 times a week instead of 7 days a week.

Spending 10-14 hours at the gym every week is an extreme outlier of exercise.

This is a good point though, but I'm not sure a court would consider looking for a roommate and renting out a room on Airbnb as the same thing.
