I saw a similar thing in a very old building, I think from the early 1900s.

The web of tubes was for messaging. (Just like some bank drive-ins work.) Users would put paper messages in capsules which were put into a pipe. Compressed air would carry the message to a central switching station, where human operators would re-route the message to the proper destination tube.

It was pretty cool, in a steam-punk sort of way.

I think C is a bad language. Necessary at the time? Sure. Is everything about it bad? Of course not. But by modern standards it’s bad, and the sooner we can migrate code away from it and onto languages with fewer footguns the better.

It’s weirdly black and white to assume that just because someone thinks a language is “bad”, that opinion doesn’t have nuance.

Full disclosure, I also think go is a bad language ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Agreed. I have exactly the same workflow except I end up using Pycharm with the interactive IPython REPL that it integrates with and graduate code up into modules in PyCharm. I like the variable viewer in PyCharm as that ends up being really handy when prototyping things in the REPL especially when working with data and writing algorithms, etc. It really does feel like "cheating"!

she has famously said that "you have to pass the bill before you see it" - not an hyperbole, the obamacare bill was being negotiated forever and changing but at one point of time they had to force the vote first even if the version was not read by everyone.

that kind of story applies to a lot of bills. I may be able to sneak in a paragraph just before the vote that says "3 billion dollars of government subsidies for drought stricken cashew farmers in California" and if someone can find that out before it is published on their websites, would you not think it is a private information?

Flash is indeed a weak link. I use to put together embedded Linux systems out of commodity server components 15 years ago, and over the years we lost many flash chips (altho they would often continue functioning in a degraded state… read only) due to the high logging rate of Linux combined with the low write endurance of typical usb flash disks. You can get more expensive single level cell (or pseudo-single level cell) chips now that can last an extremely long time.

Old Tesla Model Ses had this same problem with the infotainment system flash, but Tesla will fix it for you for free now since the infotainment system contains some features NHTSA considers safety essential (wipers, etc).
The bigger win here are projects that increasingly do more and do it faster. You can essentially replace babel’s hydra with typescript (single dependency) and do it faster too. TS also essentially supports “preset-env” via the target property (however you must pick the ES version, not a browser list)

The important part now is ensuring that these projects don’t just die and disappear like, say, Rich Harris’ “buble” tool (a very old “fast Babel alternative”)

It might seem harsh and I would not go so far as to say crazy, but you have too much invested in the colors and shapes stuff.

You have done your diligence and voiced your concerns and if you can't accept their decision you should step away while retaining as much of your equity as possible.

From an alternate perspective, what would your response be if the head of HR told you that you can't use python because they hate snakes? I'm assuming you would reject that (as would I) even if the head of HR had a 10% stake. It is not a decision they have been hired to make. Just like apparently colors and shapes are not the decisions you were hired to make.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I am not looking for a Notebook experience but rather for integration of the IPython REPL shell as the default shell in VSCode so all code is being executed in there and so you can interactively prototype or debug code in an IPython shell. It is insanely more capable and powerful than any other regular Python shell, and without it, VSCode just feels a lot more gimped for Python development. Pycharm otoh is an example of an IDE that absolutely nails IPython shell integration into the IDE.
I don’t understand, you think ideally there would be 0 code written in go? You don’t see anything interesting or appealing about it? Also, calling a language bad is black and white, observing that is not black and white.

> Am i crazy for being this upset and hurt?

Your hypersensitivity isn’t normal, but you already know that. Given you are now dealing with something very painful to you and you aren’t getting anywhere, it’s not crazy that you’re upset and hurt.

> Even ignoring my hypersensitivity i would have expected that given my role in the company my feedback to a redesign would be heard and that at least something i hate would be avoided

From everything you’ve described, I’d be absolutely shocked if that happened.

> How would you react in this situation?

Hard to say. If I was in exactly your situation then I’d be you and do what you’re doing. If I was more like me and faced the issues you face, I’m not sure what I’d do. You’re going to have a hard time at most jobs where you have no control over the colors of most software you look at. Maybe use accessibility settings on your monitor to do something like black and white or muted colors? Maybe I’d found a company or be a contractor for more control. If it was something different but with the same results (I hate something then getting treated the way you described) I’d definitely walk. I can’t stand the dynamic you’re talking about.
People seem to unable to accept that in some situation, regardless of what you do, people will die anyway.

Unlike Ossoff's bill, that's some serious teeth.

I think the purpose of the list is much more mundane, and it's just another record they're keeping for compliance reasons. Employee's religious information is private information, so storage probably requires extra safeguards just like medical information does. Keeping it all in a central place means you don't have every federal agency trying to implement their own secure storage solution.
Not in the slightest. I just turned 28 and have 4 with, hopefully, more to come!
Another way of putting it is that for me, blogging is giving me some structure right now that I find useful.

Blogging daily enforces some measure of discipline on my time. Then I build the habit of putting serious effort into something every day, even in the absence of a job. The fact that it's intrinsic is also quite empowering. And if I want to be satisfied with what I write, I need to push myself and write about things that are difficult for me, i.e. new or complex ideas. Especially since I'm using this time to reflect, that means thinking about my values, my work habits, and my long-term career goals. When I look at my cumulative posts I can see that I've done some creative and satisfying. And these posts are also artifacts I can share with others, so there's a social element too.

In the absence of that, especially with my new glut of free time, I could see myself falling into the trap of not really doing anything. Maybe not immediately, but over time. And while that's certainly not a bad place to be, it's not where I want to go. So there's a protective element to this too; if I break the routine, I'll know immediately that something has gone astray.
Microsoft's share of the desktop market at the time was very close to unity. You couldn't vote with your feet because there was nowhere to go. Even now, MS have about 75% of the PC OS market.

Apple's share of the smartphone market is around 15% globally, and 55% within the US. Under no definition can Apple be said to be in the same position that Microsoft was. You can indeed vote with your feet and many do (in both directions).

Anti-trust law is designed to do two things. Prevent companies from becoming monopolies in a market, and break up companies that are monopolies. By the numbers, Apple is not a monopoly, and there are plenty of healthy alternatives to Apple. Anti-trust law is just fine and dandy and I support it. It just does not apply here.

> good writing requires clear thinking, and clear thinking is useful!

Exactly this. The act of writing it down (whatever "it" is - code, prose, marketing materials, technical documents, mind maps, whatever) is inseparable from the process by which it was invented. If you value the end product, you have to value the process as a forcing function for clear thinking.

But that doesn't mean you have to publish a blog! There are other ways to transfer knowledge. Personally, most of my writing efforts have gone from blogging to markdown files in github repos.
They had the first food delivery subscription service among the food delivery services, such as Uber Eats, DoorDash etc, is what I believe they mean to say, not that they literally invented subscriptions.

Aside, the sibling comments are quite uncharitable, I don't see why anyone would reasonably believe that the founder invented subscriptions. If one thinks for even a second, they know this isn't true, so why not think for another second about what they really mean? I don't see the need to complain and hem and haw about how the "world's gone crazy."
