Not OP but isn’t your definition of gatekeeping in all industries and it is wrong to point out industry expectations (of course delivery matters)? Like if a kid learns programming using Scratch, you’re not gonna be like NO! Real programmers use C++! But if at one point the kid wants to take programming serious enough, you should explain to them that the industry expect certain tools and skill set.

I would argue CAD/CAM packages are the same. While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with fusion360 (I use it to for persona use too), it is true how the market penetration is extremely slim. Even the industrial sibling Inventor has only a small percentage of the market. While a lot of it is historical reasons, there are good reasons why most small to medium sized companies use Inventor/Solidworks and MasterCAM as their main driver.
Airtable vs. Notion
Here's the problem with that: there's the chance that if you have children you will hate them. Probably more so if you've been pressured into having children. This is not a socially acceptable response, so you usually only ever see this response in anonymous "off my chest" spaces.

And if you hate your children, you're doing them a vast disservice.

There is no moral imperative to have children, and I wish people would stop pressuring the voluntarily childless into having children.
I'm by no means an expert so take everything with a grain of salt.

Notary/lawyer/safety deposit box do sound like proper solutions. I also think 2nd factors like hardware keys, auth apps, also just multiple devices you have logged in, work well in recovery.

For after you die notary/lawyer sounds like the most solid option, they seem quite skilled and experienced with that kind of stuff.

Otherwise you need some other way to recover. Recovery email seems to work quite well, but could be another account, another type of log in, there are many ways; I've had some services send me a physical letter, I have gone to physical stores with my id.

Nothing is perfect of course, but the social one seems unnecessary complex and fragile.
Energy storage is not particularly cheap.

And not particularly efficient : if you cannot beat the highest market prices...

And comes with the risk of catastrophic release of that stored energy. Which means that the authorities will be much more interested in getting involved !

And the biggest issue is that if you try to become an energy seller, it becomes much harder to go under the radar as part of the black or grey market ?

Ask HN:Why is Perl so dwarfed in data science by Python?
Quite baffling. Naturally far more efficient, how come Perl lags far behind or gets dwarfed in data science by Python ?
As someone with a mechanical engineering background, i feel that a sensible path to covering the basics would be to take an online course in manufacturing and materials.
There is so much more to manufacturing than printing and injection molding, but you will have to design with the process in mind.

For metals alone you have several "chapters":
milling (in several axes)
Sheet metal (cutting,bending)
Welding (in so many ways)
Forging
Casting (different processes)
Brazing
Sintering (for special cases)
Etc..

My prototypes are usually made by using off-the-shelf brackets, profiles, fasteners etc where the most complex tools you would need are just for cutting, drilling, and tightening bolts. You may find that you can't get around needing a weld sometimes... Usually you can find local workshops that can weld simple Al or steel profiles together according to your drawing. Note: their feedback and experience is usually worth a lot (and given to you essentially for free when you order work).

Best of luck.

> My symptoms aren’t even that bad, I’m just exhausted all the time.

There are 30-40M symptomatic cases of the flu each year in the US, with the same or worse symptoms as what you just described. There is no "new" normal, cold & flu season just got more complex.
Typical day-to-day programming never requires you to find the median of two-sorted arrays, so a self-taught programmer generally has never thought about how you would tackle a problem like that, especially given the complexity requirement (O(log (m+n))) stated in that problem. If your brain immediately knows what to do when you read that problem, then you probably have a CS degree. If you have to spend 5 min thinking about the complexity notation before you even start the problem, then you probably don't have a CS degree.

> it would be less than 1" of paper (remember green lined fanfold?)

I had a book, an extremely useful one, "What's Where in the Apple II" which contained a full commented ROM disassembly with all known entry points, what their inputs were and where they stored their output. It was about 2 inches thick when printed. My copy (of course it was photocopied - it was almost impossible to get imported books in Brazil back then) had an extra inch from all the post-it notes, markers, paper notes and so on I added to it.
Leetcode is being a good sprinter, but software engineering is being a good marathon runner. It's a different skill set. Don't let these coding problems drag you down as getting good software out and maintained is something you are capable of doing well.

So, an anti-state financial mechanism subsidized by governments and fraud. There is nothing new under the sun.
> I assume the experience at first is horrible for the Asian managers.

When I worked at Samsung, there was virtually always friction between the Korean and American stakeholders. It was something we learned to tolerate though and eventually these differences did bring a lot of combined value.

The general theme was something like - Korea uses American talent to shake up processes and innovate in ways they would be difficult to approach on cultural grounds. For instance, directly challenging an incorrect idea from your manager's manager. This would be a standard Monday morning activity for any native Texan/American working at SAS. It may initially cause an uproar (why didn't you notify xyz first... etc.), but it always got the ball rolling on a quick resolution and left an implicit obligation to review why certain management chain links were skipped over in the first place.

On the other hand, Korea brought a degree of consistency/discipline in their process engineering that staggered many of us. Virtually everyone balked at this stuff initially, but we grew to understand the value over time.

The language barrier was the hardest thing from the American perspective. I feel like many of us would have had an easier time if all of the documentation wasn't originally developed in Korean. Automatic translation tech was not able to help back in the day, so your next best bet was to find a Korean who worked in your office area to help you out. Needless to say, ad-hoc human translation services were hard to come by, especially if one didn't want to feel abusive about it.

What's the advantage of this? There are tons of projects other than Electron, that wrap a browser renderer, like CEF, NW.js etc.

As I understand, the heavy resource use of these apps is due to Chrome, replacing the thin OS shim with something, hardly curbs the resource usage.
Govt: import taxes starting in 3, 2 . . .
I read it more charitably. The article is talking about the importance of looking out for yourself first so you can be there for everyone else in your life. Including family and work colleagues.
I was in the same boat. I didn't even use PEEK and POKE because the manual I had warned that if you messed up you could render the computer inoperable. In retrospect they probably meant that you might lose some work and need to reboot, or at worst ruin a disk, but I was afraid I might mess up the computer and not be able to fix it, which in our case would mean we simply wouldn't have a computer anymore. It would have been nice to have somebody there to say, don't worry, because if you mess up, we can fix it.
Prolonged compiling tasks will thermally throttle the 1185g7 chip long before the M1.

It will run circles around the 1185g7 compiling large codebases.

Passmarks across hundreds of benches show a 25% single and 40% multithreaded performance boost over the 1185g7.

I’ve got an i9 8/16 laptop chip and the 13” M1 is trading blows with my laptop despite 2-3x the thermal headroom and considerably less cores/threads across all workloads.
Update (Jan 2nd) on Detecting Omicron with Rapid Antigen Tests
Isn’t that just powered by whatever your default search engine is?
Very good points. That's why I prefer fast foods over most jobs .. these jobs are very well defined, there's no slack or lack of direction since everything has to be done and gone in 5 minutes. It's also very nice to give food to people. Even if you're sweating a lot for many hours, you don't accumulate a lot of negative stuff in your mind (unless bad boss, harassment).

Also very fair point about the fact that it's larger than work.. it's social-general.
I've been a JustWorks customer since 2017, using it for my small business of <10 employees and contractors. The number one reason I got it was to have higher quality health plans (Aetna) at better prices than I could find anywhere else; many large health plans would not accept small companies. At the time, JustWorks' competitors focused on just payroll processing. The other alternative was Trinet, but I preferred the more SaaS-like engagement. At the time, even with the Justworks fees, it saved us many thousands per year in benefits cost, while getting higher quality benefits. I've not compared pricing since, as everybody seems happy with it and it's just kept pace with inflation.

Onboarding employees and contractors has been super easy. Their support through COVID was great, giving information and options for all the various aspects of it. Their online support has made compliance easy and any time I needed to talk to somebody, there was no wait time on the phone.

At first, having a PEO was confusing to some, as it is JustWorks' EIN on everything rather than my company's EIN.

My only real complaint is that one team member lives in Puerto Rico and for some reason, after a couple years, they stopped considering PR as part of the United States and refused handling payments to there; so I have to handle that person manually, including compliance and tax. More than my time, I think it's tacky to treat Puerto Rico that way.
yes it does, TSMC has immense profits, and their profits are growing 30% YoY
Sounds like he'll on earth indeed. Definitely something I could maintain more than a very short period.
ISSUE 1:

> I, as a member of the Silicon Valley elite.

Not everyone even here on HN is a member of the "Silicon Valley elite". Would that make it jusified for someone outside of SV to fleece money from people in SV because "They have their cushy FAANG jobs to fall back on"? I hope your answer is no.

Think of it like this. Everyone everywhere are somewhere on a ladder, you, me, those rich kids spending daddies money, the homeless guy living in a doorway, everyone. You are looking up that ladder thinking "Dam, I want some of what that they have..." which everyone on the ladder does. But remember if your thoughts are about fleecing or scamming your way up a few runs of the ladder there will always be people below you on that ladder, looking up and now looking at you as a target.

ISSUE NUMBER THE SECOND:

Basically, you are never going to be able to scam just the wealthly people who "can afford to lose it". There will always be some "friendly fire", casualties of war so to speak.

The people floating around your target are in one way or another influenced by said targets wealth, populatity, charisma, whatever. They wil see the "shiney thing" influencer purchased and might well think "I want one of those, Rick Kid Jimmy is ure they will go up in value" and scrimp together money they really should be spending on something else and by into what Rich Kid Jimmy is into or atleast want to. Sure no everyone will be able to buy it at "day one" of your master plan even with raiding their life savings but OHHHH SHINEY THING that will increase in value!

But lets say no one floating around Rick Kid Jimmy buys in and you successfully rug pull, who do you think Rich Kid Jimmy will try to unload his now worthless shiney things on to? "Hey Dave, I know you were really interested in my Shiney Thing, And yeah its awesome and all, but I just brought another EVEN MORE SHINEY thing, As I know you, I'll let you have it for 50%". Rich Kid Jimmy will always be able to find new people to hover around him, burning a few won't matter too much to them, esp if they have that rich kid Jimmy mindset you seem to think they have.

Now all whats happened is 50% of your earnings have come from those you never intended to target, but inadvertently scammed anyway cause Rich Kid Jimmy wanted to recoup atleast some of their losses.

I Could write more and more about this, but I would be here all day and I have code to write/debug, so I will end it with this. At the end of the day you got to look at yourself and ask "can I sleep at night knowing what I'm doing will affect those who can't afford it?" Because even if you successfuly target Rich Kid Jimmy, their are always
casualties of war that will get caught in the crossfire no matter how prefect of a plan you have.

If ther answer to that is YES, then hit me up, I have a bridge to sell.
To prevent burnout, choose a career where you are paid for the value you provide instead of physical hours spent working. This way you can decouple work from time. As you build your skills, you can reduce work to a daily chore of just a few hours instead of the key focus of your day.

Defaults do matter, I agree, and it's also ok to complain about any given default option if one thinks it's a bad option.

That doesn't make it ok to lie and mislead people in the process of making that complaint, though. It's very very easy to change the default search engine setting in iOS. It's about as easy as Apple could possibly make it. To allege otherwise, or to state that "jail-breaking" is somehow required, is simply a lie.

Just make the argument without lying.
Oh well, looks like I'll be going for an ARM machine.
You're right, but what I want to know are the basics.

To give analogy in software development, I don't want to know how to build an app, I want to know what are the tools to build the app and why.

E.g. use IntelliJ for text editor because it's an IDE (Why IDE is important? Why not Notepad?), use Ngrok for tunnel (why?), use Charles for proxy (why?), use PostgreSQL for DB storing relational data (why? what's relational?), use Redis for caching (why?), etc.. you get the idea.
I think it is very interesting how these countries fall off the internet...

Specifically, if I was a country leader who wanted to turn off the internet, I would get my minister to call up all big ISP's and tell them to disconnect everyone. The ISP bosses tell their tech people to do it. And what do those tech people do?

Well, if I were in their shoes, I would head to the billing system and mark all customers as 'bill overdue, not eligible for service' or some similar status.

That gives me the ability to allow certain customers to still use the service (eg. the president and his mates).

Yet that isn't what we see... The actual BGP routes go down... That suggests to me that the story might be more like "army storms ISP headquarters, ripping out cables till their phone internet stops working".
At 17 years old I walked into a computer lab and saw some people who were using Mosaic. It blew my mind. I knew then the internet was going to change everything and I needed to know as much about it as I could.
If I recall, a good portion of the UEFI Secure Boot system is entirely of Microsoft’s design, albeit this is thankfully an optional system in most cases but one that has definitely caused headaches for Linux users.
I do this too, but still run into issues with Safari. Luckily, later Safari 14 versions and Safari 15 are not too bad.
OTOH, it was decades before I had a 26" monitor again ;-)

Most of the time I used a 12" white phosphor screen (soft-switched between board video and a Videx card) and a 16" color TV attached to motherboard color/graphics of the Apple II+ clone.

You couldn't do that on the Apple //e with native 80-column video, sadly.
Shame about that other environmental nasty thing related to proof-of-work that renders the entire earth somewhere you'd prefer not to raise a kid.
I don't bother with split horizon DNS for my home network.
You don't even have to switch browsers! The option to change Safari's search engine is in Settings > Safari > Search Engine.
Well, this just sucks.
This means Microsoft owns my computer. They can access parts of my CPU without my knowledge. WTF, AMD!
Most people freeze on interviews and its normal entirely.

Also, most problems are not solved in the 45 minutes and in day to day coding , we generally have a minimum of day to think on the problem and solve it without people looking over our shoulder, google or ask someone :)
The Map-Territory Distinction Creates Confusion
I think the main confusion is about "ownership". In the analog world ownership means enforcement if someone takes it from you. In digital world such things are not quite possible. We have a history of law enforcement enforcing some digital ownership (fighting piracy and such), but we do not have any experience law enforcement enforcing ownership of NFTs, simply because it is very young tech and it remains to be seen how it will interact with analog world.

Anticoagulants and anti-platelets increase the chance of hemorrhage in the brain.

So while they prevent ischemic stroke and help with circulation, they might cause hemorrhagic stroke. The dose and time duration has to be carefully adjusted. It’s a slippery slope in dealing with cerebrovascular accidents.

Anti platelets (specially Aspirin 80 and Clopidogrel) are less risky than anticoagulants (such as heparin or warfarin).
> After recently having my first encounter with a wild pig in Berlin, I was also expecting having to run from lions.

A girlfriend from Berlin once told me a story of how she had to hold out on top of a car for hours after being ambushed by hogs while coming home from a party in the early morning.

Berlin is a funny place.
I've seen it happen.

I was on a team of competent people working on a dense code base before and after introduction of gatekeeping code reviews. The code base was large so no two people would be working in the same area. Before code reviews:

- Team members working on a section of code would find and fix bugs in it.

- Team members would watch the repository history to monitor for any mistakes.

When gatekeeping reviews were introduced, they were not particularly effective at finding bugs because bugs tended to be subtle and required time working on the particular code in question to identify. But the introduction of gatekeeping code review caused bugs because:

- Once reviewed, code was assumed to be good enough because hey, two people agreed on it.

- Any bugs identified would require code reviews to fix which would be an uphill battle and probably involve project management.

- Nobody's looking that closely at history because who wants to deal with finding problems and pushing through fixes? And hey, it's already reviewed.

- Knowledge of code that is being reviewed becomes stale as you start working on other features. This impacts pre-commit testing as you make changes to mollify the reviewer, and thus lead to a bug.

- Lowering velocity lowers the rate of fixing bugs.

- A bug could be fixed but stuck in review, so it's still in the codebase for other developers to run across. You could argue: well, it's documented in JIRA! But bugs can manifest in different ways and affect multiple system.
Even if you ignore the fact that they'll find a way to shit on Linux[to push WSL] I simply do not trust Microsoft to get anything right in terms of security.[1]

Low code is what we are doing every day with modern programming languages and developer tools. We write a fraction of the code someone had to write 30 years ago for the same functionality. In that regard, the future is already here.

And developers haven't been replaced, and it is unlikely that they will be. But the role has already changed. A bigger part of being a developer is to understand business requirement and talking to customers (internal and external), while previously you could rely on your precious technical skills to be irreplaceable.

Finally, for many people No Code seems to mean "graphical code". That is certainly nothing new and is great for some things, like developing interfaces and I have seen some reasonably successful ones for developing database schemas. But for expressing flow and logic, text still rules supreme (for a number of reasons).
Even if it's green, wouldn't it be better if that produced energy goes somewhere to replace non-green energy, rather than to calculate hashes that are mostly thrown away?

Obviously it's all stupidly chaotic, there might be a huge waterfall somewhere, and if we ignore the natural beauty aspects, before some cryptobros show up with money (however tangible) to build a hydropower plant and some wires to their container site, that waterfall's energy is not being utilized...
