I think being remote impacts upwards mobility, but the cap varies by company.

It really depends on the remote culture of the company. I worked for a big company (about 1000 people) where individual contributors and line managers were mostly remote. So being remote and getting a lead or line level manager was not an issue. Directors could be at a satellite office and travel to a big office in a major city. VPs and above tended to all live where the headquarters were.

I've also worked in a company where 95% of the people were in office and they started to offer remote as an option. Forget about getting promoted - it was basically impossible to maintain a positive image as a remote employee.

If you are in a remote first company, obviously you can go much higher. But I suspect that even with remote first companies, the top leadership will tend to gravitate to be closer to each other.
That’s okay.

The EU can build it itself when the US player are not able to not send data to their US data centres.
As an ESL who grew up in Slovenia, did most of his work in English, and now lives in USA with full immersion[1] – the memory language barrier is very noticeable.

Talking to my mom and sister about things that happened in Slovenia is easy and fluent. Talking about things that happened in USA is … hard. I have to translate, I can’t find words, the concepts make no sense, everything is awkward.

Make me talk about software engineering in Slovenian and I sound like a bumbling fool. It just doesn’t work. Every 3rd word is English. Entire sentences sometimes.

You need very good tests in place to automatically change something or a lot of trust in your dependencies :P.

It's not the case on most of my project, so I never commit directly to the main branch, instead I commit on a temporary branch then open a PR on GitHub so we just review and merge the changes.
Maybe you are referring to required data.
I can buy some bread and the store does not need my ID for accounting purposes, so not sure what exceptional stores or gym need to send a copy of my ID and my activities to their accountant.

My problem is with the 100+ partners that are OBVIOUSLy not partners and not required to have my data.
I think that is a perfectly reasonable and likely hypothesis. It would make sense for prices to rise simultaneous to wages, as companies are not cutting their profit margins out of the goodness of their hearts to pay increased wages.
Only way to beat inflation is with risk-on assets such as high growth tech stocks or BTC/ETH.

A nuclear war is unlikely to end humanity.

Indeed, if we're on the brink of a Venus style runaway hothouse, a nuclear war would be the better alternative. The reduction in population and thus carbon emission combined with the increased atmospheric dust would most likely arrest warming altogether, if not even undo some of the damage.

For the record no I'm not a psycho and I don't endorse nuclear war, I just doubt it would be an human extinction event.

Advertising is not micropayment with low friction. That’s like saying war is just the other country buying weapons for free.

Advertising is an attempt at making the customer pay for stuff. Attention is free and so you cannot stop or prevent advertisements, they are a form of free speech if you will. However we are talking about the extent you go to profile users and tailor the ads to them. Google personalizes on a per user basis and everything they do is to get that data.
We're quickly getting there.

For instance, any service that handles health data absolutely cannot have the data be accessible in a way, shape or form by american-owned entities, for any reason.

It's not hard to imagine that, as time goes on, these same limitations will be expanded to other types of decreasingly sensitive data.

And honestly, that's perfectly reasonable. The US government gives itself the right to systematically spy on everything going through US cloud companies. Precedent has shown it can and will use that data against the interests of its supposed allies, even for industrial espionage.

If the US says "every US company must give over european data to the government", then at some point europeans have to say "US companies can't have european data".

Yeah, you pay someone to take the assignment for you. Which, by the way, there's already a market out there where people are paying others to interview in their place (deceiving the company). I think video interviews are less cheatable than unsupervised assignments but still cheatable since bad actors can hire people to impersonate them. Anyways, whether or not these would be genuine significant risks in your hiring pipeline is pretty company-dependent.
You can achieve full support with JS disabled using HTMX as well. It takes a little more work but HTMX provides headers[0] which you can evaluate on the backend to determine if you should return a partial or not. If JS is disabled, the HTMX headers will be missing and you know it's not an HTMX request.

I have mixed feelings here.

On one hand do what you want, on the other hand you can already add https imports via package.json.

Why in God's name would you not have a package.json.

I think this would be awesome for hacking out prototypes, but if I saw this in production code I'd ether work to get it fixed or find a new job. Being reckless is fine in your spare time. It's not ok at work.

My fear is this is going to push junior devs into sloppy practices.
It was very obvious that it was not transitory. When are people going to stop trusting the fed? They've been toying with people's livelihood and printing money at will devaluing everyone's hard work to benefit a select few.

Web Scraping Legal Questions for 2022
1. The US is not the only country in the world. There are already plenty of studies of devastating downstream effects of lockdowns in poorer countries. Of course, a lot of that is out of sight for people in the US.

2. The demographics of the people who died with/of covid skew what, 70% over the age of 65? More? How many of those people do you think were actively looking for a job?

3. I'd say that "and we've zero information on how they might make up ground" is _exactly_ why it's unconscientious to inflict this kind of damage on them.
If Apple considers level 1 and 5 to both be associates and doesn’t share more than that that’s… fine?

WaPo says this can be a 6 figure difference in compensation but frankly why should a future employer get to know how much I make? Maybe I’m a level 3 but deserved to be a level 4. Maybe I’m a level 5 but actually a level 2 that’s just really good at office politics.

If I want my employer to know what number Apple assigned me, I’ll tell them.

EDIT: Telling companies a Level 5 engineer was an associate if associate isn't a superset of Level 5's is shady, and I can't defend Apple on that point. From what I read of the article that wasn't clear to me. They do say the title is generally linked to more junior roles but that's relative and you can still be old, experienced and well-paid but if you're not a manager I might consider that an associate.
> Cutting corners assumes not doing things that are necessary. … The example of S3 is apt as often ephemeral files are kept in S3 in which case they don't need the reliability storage guarantees that you'll get with S3.

… or which didn't seem necessary until something breaks. For example, the cost of using S3 for temporary files is often negative because in most cases your usage charges are going to be lower than keeping a sufficiently-large storage volume provisioned 24x7 for it, and if you know that you don't need geographic redundancy you can use the one zone storage for that. In all cases, you'll benefit from things like bitrot protection which that scratch storage space doesn't have built-in.

> I think almost all of these have been problems in the software itself nothing that AWS will help you with.

Definitely. What you get from a cloud environment is better tools for dealing with this — for example, shifting load is easy and making it trivial to get new resources makes it easy to do things like high-fidelity testing, blue-green deployments, rolling reboots, etc. which most organizations struggle to do efficiently in a traditional data center environment.

>> You can have 5 rocks destroyed in the future
You have 5 rocks now, and zero rocks in the future. At no point are there negative rock-shaped holes in the fabric of space.
The parent's comment still stands, he is talking about reality, not our mathematical interpretation of it.
> You can have 5 rocks destroyed in the future.

Exactly, you use it to store some information that has no real quantity but may be converted to a real quantity in the future through some other process.

I'm a polytechnic university student, we use imaginary numbers extensively in all sorts of places, especially whenever there is any oscillatory behaviour, such as an electrical signal or a light wave. A complex number is just a two-dimensional vector with real/imaginary components, whcih provides an amplitude and a phase (angle). An oscillating sinusoidal signal/wave may appear to be zero and completely static if you freeze time at the right moment, but as time progresses, it will continue oscillating, like a swing in a park.

In a way, the magnitude represents the built up "momentum" of the system, whilst the real quantity is the immediate physical value at any given point in time (given by the phase). The amplitude is always the same at any given moment, even when the swing is vertical, it has momentum which will help it reach its maximum height.

Personally, I still think they are just "invented", but I think the vast majority of engineers much prefer them to the alternative, manipulating trigonometric functions (every engineer's nightmare). They're a neat way to represent the exchange of potential and mechanical/electrical energy with a single value and some simplified mathematics (this is an engineer's, not a mathematician's, point of view). Like negative numbers, we could have chosen to have two positive quantities, balance and debt, instead we find use in merging these definitions, whether negative values make sense or not. We have become used to to negative numbers representing the "inverse" action, which makes sense when representing a phyiscal quantity such as velocity.

I can understand that- its odd that they offer the phone number but don't provide accurate information on it, though. Why offer the hotline at all?
No, that's your fantasy and I wonder what dark thoughts you have that you made this leap. For example you inserted "death" (and for that matter "child") out of the blue when it wasn't even there! Out of thre 3 words you speculate about, only one is in the list above, two are purely your own mind's product.

The first cluster seems to do with homemaking, accommodation-finding, living arrangements and stresses involving this.

The second one is about family and processes/conflicts/stress around it.

Paying someone to take the assignment for you and secure you the job. People are out there doing this already, though I wouldn't recommend it :)
>apparently the big rise is in used ones

Only because there are practically no new ones.

We've been trying to buy a new vehicle for over a year, with a family member owning a dealership, and still haven't been able to get one.

Our last one, we ordered just before covid, and the 3 month order turned into 13 months.

EV only comes into play because it made new car prices higher in order for companies to meet quotas dictated by CAFE standards, which also raises prices on the used market.

Your username checks out. Economics is hardly an ideological backwater of science, but politics might definitely be. Economics simply comes down to cause and effects of different decisions...how those are actually applied in the real work is policy related, and that part is littered with trash.
Interesting. I think whether you follow a riskier strategy or not depends on the shape of the bets you are making. If you are picking up pennies in front of a steamroller (high probability of low payout and low probability of losses), then what you say seems to make sense. If you are playing lottery tickets (low probability of high payout and high probability of losses) then I guess you want to bet conservatively until the Kelly strategy falls below you and then you switch to the Kelly strategy.
Yes, I think it's rather tongue in cheek. It's probably not defined as clickbait since it was written in '93!
That’s fair, but we were also running out of tools to increase liquidity/inflation as well. Not many tools to increase inflation to a healthy number when interest rates are already at or approaching 0% and billions of dollars are being created out of air.

Government edicts prevent any new players from entering the market.

In our market we have supply and demand. Currently, there is demand chasing a shrinking supply. We wrecked the status quo by freezing the economy and the jobs held in place. With the stimulus checks, wages were forced up to overcome the challenge of people sitting at home or coming into work. Costs thus increased. Most of the suppliers have held back on price increases because they a. Do not want to hurt the consumer, b. Do not want to have the government thinking they are price gouging (which if you want to be new to market and provide a product similar to everyone else but at a much higher price to cover your entry costs, good luck with the opportunistic folks in congress looking to pin this on the corporations).

The small businesses are not nimble enough to make paper towels because of capital investments not being there, the big players having a monopoly on store shelf space, and government agencies ready to swoop in and bury you in legal morass.

Now we see the companies realizing they are all in this together, similar to when all the airlines simultaneously declared bankruptcy. I am not saying they are collusion to increase prices, I am saying they are inadvertently appearing to collude based on how they feel out the other corporations going.

I always heard that in the UK one was a "subject" not a "citizen". But admittedly, "subjectship" is a rather awkward construction.
Associate, in the USA at least, has a strong connotation of a junior position. As the article points out, there are plenty of examples of associate being used to describe a more junior position.

And you know what other word unambiguously means 'employee'? That wouldn't cause this sort of clamor? Yes, 'employee' is that word.
Yes, I totally see your point. Gmail and similar offers are convenient, which means that native software has some very stiff competition and not a lot of adoption.

I'm interested in frugal computing, and I want my software to run smoothly on a Raspberry Pi if at all possible. So I do have some demand for a native program or, rather, set of programs.

Besides, on a principle level, I fail to see how something as simple as e-mail should need (or be allowed to use) something as complicated and resource-hungry as a web browser.
What is the alternative? We are going to go back to 2005 where we send docs over email? Files end up being too large, nobody knows what the latest copy is, etc.

Could this not also be said about US regulations such as CLOUD act, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and Executive Order 12333.

I don't think it's accurate to solely blame the EU when this is in response to legislation that gives/gave the US access to all types of personal data on European citizens.
Do you have a source for this? My searches land primarily on the University of North Carolina professor. I do see that she was a German immigrant but I'm not finding many details beyond that.
>The argument is pretty simple - if there is a "platonic mathematics", we cannot have any direct experience of it.

Aside, but this is also Aristotle's exact argument against Platonism in general, though when he makes it in the Nichomachean Ethics he is specifically talking about ethical Good (if the definition/actual taking place of the Good lies in some other plane, we can't participate in it so no one is or can be good), but the idea is the same even when he's talking about what a soul is in De Anima. Aristotle doesn't believe in 'souls' in the way we think of them as religio-spiritual entities that exceed the capacity of the body; a 'soul' for Aristotle is the body but in a way that radically challenges the idea of a body as mere shell or vessel - soul is what any form of life repeats doing, as a body, in order to continue being itself. It should be noted that a lot of time at Aristotle's Academy was spent in Zoology, studying animals and their anatomy.

There is little to distinguish paid advertising to content marketing or PR. Which both easily bleed into the larger media ecosystem. If you take a step back most of our experiences, even on HN, are from press releases or news articles driven largely by marketing. It works. I’ve spent over a 18 years understanding and working in the sector. You can’t escape it. There is no centralized view on its ethical responsibilities. But there is no doubt that advertising and marketing and the media at large influence people and alter their behaviors.
Companies aren't to blame. Our lawmakers are. They need to pass laws that protect US interests but for last 3 decades, they've sold the American worker's soul to the CCP & private-gov enterprise in China. Apple spent $275 billion to boost Chinese manufacturing, but fuck-all to do anything in US. They could have built a whole ecosystem of US electronics manufacturers and make everything in US + Mexico, but their shareholders will never vote for it. So, laws must be passed to force them. The revolving door in DC has crushed the working class people of US and the same goes on in EU, the west generally.

I don't think this judgement is about Google Analytics (or any implicit sharing of EU citizen/resident data with Google) being inherently illegal, but rather the current functioning of the Google Analytics service being specifically non-compliant.

e.g. Google could make Google Analytics compliant (likely by, as you say, housing EU data in Ireland), but it seems that currently they are not.

Also, beyond the physical colocation of data, there are ancillary issues around data being readily accessible (either by internal engineers/agents or external authorities) from outside the EU to consider as well.
But certainly you want advertising for things you consider good and important, like maybe climate protection things, or mask wearing and vaccinations, and so on.

For example a company could offer a more efficient heating appliance for homes. Then it would be a good thing if they advertised it, so that home builders could become aware of it.
I'm sure this is a line of reasoning ad-apologists use all the time but... philosophically, is there really a way we can claim that advertising makes you want things in a way that's wrong, as opposed to in way that causes enjoyment just like when you normally want things?

Like implicit in this line of reasoning is a bit of a sense that like, there's a "true", base set of desires that we all have that would exist completely independently of any kind of outside influence, and that advertising is bad because it tricks us into addressing other manufactured desires instead of our real, true desires. And that there's something wrong with addressing a manufactured desire instead of a "true" desire? Like, when you address a manufactured desire you don't actually feel the joy/fulfillment you would from fulfilling a "true" desire?

I don't think that's right. I don't think we really have true, "pure" desires. Almost all of our desires are a result of social influence in one way or another. And even to the extent that some desires are less a product of influence than others, I'm not sure satisfying those desires is necessarily better. I've bought things after I saw an ad about them, and they're things I now genuinely enjoy. Why does it matter if that enjoyment is a result of the ad or would have existed either way?

Maybe a much shorter way of saying this:

> In other words, you can make people consume considerably more stuff they don't want by constantly nagging them with ads.

Are you sure ads are "nagging" people as opposed to genuinely changing what they want?

I share the gut sentiment that it feels wrong to be manipulated by ads, but I feel like there needs to be more to this argument. Though I think you can still think advertising is bad in an "arms race" kind of way (if everyone stopped doing it at once we'd possibly not really be any worse off and have all that time/money to spend elsewhere).
"Preferred" as in I heard at least a couple of talking heads say "I wish I had used the term sectoral rather than transitory".

Yes, they would have preferred using a term that would make them look less foolish.

> AMD’s acquisition of ATI is generally viewed as a strategic error.

Historically it was (when AMD was drowning in debt from the acquisition and had no competitive processors on the timeline), but is this still true? For instance, all of the major game consoles (ps4/ps5/xbone/xbox series x/switch) use AMD boards, and as I recall, those deals lifted the company's financials quite well.
