I'm 58. Back at the "height" of the anti-nuclear movement in the UK (which I'd peg at about 1978-1982, that movement was full of educated people who chose to reject nuclear (fission) power.

The fact that you don't agree with them doesn't require you to suggest that they were uninformed or uneducated. I don't agree with you (mostly), but that just means that I've come to different conclusions about what is in reality a complex question.
Not really. I'm just saying the same stuff in a different #lang-- I mean in different words :p
I dogfood OpenVi and use it for OpenVi development, however, 99% of my normal programming workflow is (terminal-based) NeoVim.

The other 1% is Eclipse or VSCode ... and I have VSCode setup to use the embedding functionality of NeoVim.
Are there any ORMs that do that currently? That sounds awesome

Swift seems to me very similar to Rust in the sense that it's a language that try to do everything, to be both low and high level. Rust is leaning on the lower end and Swift is higher end. The different is Rust has a selling point, which is the borrow checker. Swift's selling point is... made by Apple? In that sense Swift might be closer to C#.
There is? You can follow those playlist and place them at the top of your playlists. Who needs the crap „startpage“ as a startpage anyways.
I'll second the concerns at touting FrAgile (TM). Too many teams woefully underestimate the level of work yhat goes into maintaining the full delivery of product, and the fact that as you scale up, process has to be in place to keep people working independently without running into issues.

Waterfall's issue was that it stipulated there shalt be process from stage 1 before anyone even understands WTF anyone is doing. FrAgile(TM) is notorious for just cutting people loose and winging it, with no regard to system design, architecture and maintaining a cohesive whole over the entire process that keeps your business functioning.

You can't just NOT make SOP's you can't have an onboarding process that can't ne negotiated by the average person. Doing so is a recipe for burnout/churnout and failure.

> Jira is slow, but it's faster than what people did before it.

That's not my experience. Most of what people do on Jira is stuff they just didn't do before; there's no benefit, only cost.

> And I have efficiently built and shipped ~10 projects on Jira, so I know it's not that bad.

Hmm, did you have access to edit workflows or something? It can be "not that bad", but the defaults and the way it nudges people mean it's bad unless you - or rather, all too often, the person above you - is making a serious effort to ensure it's not bad.
Could you please clarify your point? I don’t understand the comment as is.
It's mostly about the difficulty in actually interpreting data. It's very easy to construct an experiment that influences behavior to make a feature seem useful or useless. Intentionally or accidentally.

Science has known this for a long time. Designers seem intent on having to rediscover this on their own.
There are a variety in Los Angeles that stayed open during the entire pandemic and just kept paying the fines. Some were pretty clear about having debts and expenses, they got the fines and weren't like condemned or anything stricter.

There is no strong reason why a consumer SSD can't allow reformatting to a smaller normal namespace and a separate zoned namespace.
Zone-aware CoW file systems allow efficiently combining FS-level compaction/space-reclamation with NAND-level rewrites/write-leveling.

I'd probably pay for "unlocking" ZNS on my Samsung 980 Pro, if just to reduce the write amplification.
I see there's a huge omissions here. Valencia is famous for its oranges, which are produced at scale, transported and sold to the rest of Spain and other European countries. Meanwhile at many local supermarkets we often get cheaper, lower quality Morocco oranges, which is a shame (they are not subject to the same quality standards):

Yeah, the most depressing part of this is that I'm even jealous of the social camaraderie my finance roommate talks about having with the other analysts he spends late office nights with. At least he has the option of an office and people actually go. I'm even saying this as someone who'd admittedly sort of weird, not super social. If everything is remote, I'm tempted to give up on work socializing and just live with some friends of mine in the mountains in CO.

After a certain age, you realize you can only form certain kinds of friendships by spending a lot of time with people struggling on similar problems. Granted, last year I attempted to start a company full remote and I was able to build sort of similar bonds, but it's way too hard to gauge people. Those efforts sort of faded after one of our founders turned out to be too emotionally unstable. But yeah.

edit - but maybe at 27 this is really just me realizing I'm not that social, don't really like people and should maybe just move on from some kind of idealized social life...
I think you're right that async Rust isn't quite done yet (improvements on this front look to be a major focus for 2022). But I think the fact they were able to get an MVP released that so far looks like it can be built upon without too much technical debt is positive rather than a negative. Rust would be far less useful without the async feature.
Computer hardware has gotten exponentially cheaper in the past half-century. But people keep buying it.

I think it's because they are usually targeting the design for the broadest audience, so they design for the lowest common denominators and simplify the screen as much as possible to streamline "the main flow" of their app. This involves removing as much elements as possible to cause the least confusion when they interact with the app for the first time.

This means that the app will work amazing and without thought ("it just works!") for 80% of the population but will be non-functional for the 20% of the population which includes power users and users who would have been willing to go through the initial learning curve for a more powerful app.

Just to note: I'm not deriding the "lowest common denominators" as I am definitely one for some domains. For example, I chose the app with the simplest deisgn for doing my taxes as I didn't want to spend time learning about taxes.

Except that Twain's spelling system would actually be a vast improvement on what we have today.
This is an extremely weird exchange... I would interpret her tweet as, Coinbase contracted her team, they pitched ideas, they rejected the ideas, then "stole" it and developed it internally. But his later reply suggests that, no, they were partners through to the end.

It does seem like he was intentionally or unintentionally building a universe where it was the "internal team" who developed it, but frankly I'm not sure that's a big enough misstep to warrant the marketing company replying like that trying to "out" him. In my eyes, that's an extremely unprofessional move on their part.

We bring in outside engineering contractors all the time to work on stuff. When the feature is finished, we don't tell customers "thank you, yes we're very happy with the work our engineering team and McKinsely & Sons Contracting Firm LLC did for us". That just straight up never, never, never happens; we take responsibility for both the success and failures of our contractors. Of course, success is always nice, and when directly asked we don't hide it (on the contrary; we're happy to give them some free word-of-mouth marketing if they've done good work). There's an alternate reality here where the marketing firm maybe reaches out privately and says "hey Brian; your tweets really paint a picture that we had nothing to do with it; mind giving us a shout-out?"

But that's not the direction they went, and instead they just aired dirty laundry in a public forum. Actually, its not even dirty laundry?! Its just laundry. I can say with absolute certainty that if any contractors/third parties pulled this stunt with us, we'd never use them again, period. Beyond anything else, NDAs are SOP in exchanges like this, I'd bet my life savings she absentmindedly signed one; to throw out a tweet like that isn't just unprofessional, its potentially litigable.
I use a HHKB mainly because it has a correctly positioned control key. I wish other companies would make them this way too - caps lock just isn't useful.
Brilliant. In that case, please share your project here when it's ready to go!

I'm sure it would reach the front page very quickly, and I'd love to buy one if only to support you!
well a changed mind can lead to some interesting enhancements in life.

people are missing out when they shut themselves out completely.

like we’ve all been wrong before, which means someone we disagreed with was at least right about something.

i think the bigger thing people have to be okay with is just letting things go after a certain point.

some people will argue until they are blue in the face
So in your mind "trust" is about free stuff? As long as they print or tax enough to spend on "free" things for everyone all the lies, deceit, and authoritarianism is forgiven? Interesting

>>FDA fast tracked vaccine

FDA creates a overly burdensome process, then admits it is not needed for safety... they should not get credit for that.

That is the best case. Worst case is they bypassed critical safety requirements putting all of us in possible jeopardy

Either Case I award them no points for that.

>>PPP saved a ton of businesses.

There was / is massive fraud in that system, also the loans were not given out on a needs requirement, it was first come first serve. Many companies that did not "need" the loans to survive got a lot of free money. PPP program while I am sure saves some jobs, was also a massive wealth transfer from future tax payers and savers (debt and inflation) to current business owners.

>>I have a hard believing that you have derived a net negative from the US government.

I have not done the math on the energy required to create the original low pressure and maintaining it compare to how much you save.

You speak pretty confidently about that, can you actually show any of that?

It also depends on how high the utilization of the tunnel is.

Who says there are no airlocks?

The proposal has been simulated by both SpaceX and Tesla, I don't think they made some basic mistakes about it being impossible to sustain a low pressure tube.
Some of them would have been great even on 70s hardware. Proper array, slice and string types come to mind.
miniLED is not that great compared to OLEDs. The real innovation is getting quantum dot OLEDs to be much cheaper on average. They're brighter than traditional OLEDs and burn in more evenly (if they ever do) so you don't see the burn in of specific sections of the screen (like a taskbar) like with traditional OLEDs either.

There were recently some neo-Nazi parades in Orlando, FL [0]. Hate banners on overpasses. Slurs. Shouting things at people walking past. Physically assaulting a student.

It was a mess, and there was a lot to unpack.

But as I was listening to the local NPR, during a call-in show, callers were consistently using a phrasing of "We cannot tolerate this."

Which... seemed interesting to me. As far as I'm aware, US law does not make it illegal to be a racist, immoral shitbag. It doesn't even make it illegal to parade through the middle of town shouting racist, immoral shit*.

I hate Nazis (and neo-Nazis), but I don't believe it's a threatening enough movement (in numbers or capability) that we should make it illegal to be a neo-Nazi, or say neo-Nazi stuff.

Granted, in this particular case, if the facts were accurate, they should have been liable under assault and perhaps obscenity charges.

But thought-crime? Even terrible thoughts? That leads to a darker place than neo-Nazis in the street.

As an aside, the call in show also had someone from the ACLU as a guest, who took the nuanced position supporting the act of speech but denouncing its content.

* With some fuzzy exceptions, among which, if you are causing terror in the people around you, in an attempt to coerce their behavior.

I mean, you can, but then you should probably tell Cindy Rahman, their SVP and Chief Marketing Officer, that her job title makes no sense. And the IRS that the 4.9 million-odd they claimed they spent on advertising on their Federal 990 form in 2020 was mis-labeled.

The March of Dimes is and was in the marketing business.

> actually they have to reach back decades

March of Dimes is still here. It's a modern example as well as a decades-old one. Their primary purpose all but accomplished, they've re-targeted their efforts into information, support of families in NICU, and general patient advocacy.

I could have pulled a more recent example, but the polio campaign has the advantages of lack of ambiguity, common understanding, and the historical perspective to come to general agreement that it was an more-or-less un-alloyed good thing that we can avoid getting bogged down in those dimensions.

Nowadays, I'd point to the billions spent on COVID-19 vaccination advocacy and messaging as the good marketing can do, but I didn't really want to drag the modern-era anti-vaxxers out of the woodwork.
This is why languages like Go are a jewel. It was made to compile very fast, disregarding our current era of software bloat and turtles all the way down.
In Rust you opt into every heap allocation with an abstraction like Rc, Arc, Box etc. With C you would have to implement each of those behaviors with primitives, because C is at a lower level of abstraction than Rust.
If you have the time and technical expertise of basic electronics (mainly soldering) and maybe 3d printing/basic CAD design, you can make your own monitor and that too at a decent price.

Step 1: Go to panelook.com (or directly https://www.panelook.com/modelsearch.php?op=resolution if you have a resolution in mind)

Step 2: Find the model number of your desired monitor and put it into your desired search engine (Google works)

Step 3: Buy the monitor WITH THE DRIVER* from AliExpress/Alibaba/TaoBao/eBay/wherever you get Google search results from

Step 4: Wait (???)

Step 5: Design a 3d model and print it, or use acrylic and cut it by hand, or whatever you want. Profit!

I kind of suspect he was doing it all to build his personal profile as a potential CEO or management "influencer". If it wound down quietly with no contracts as an explanation for no hires, perhaps he would have already been on to a hefty salary somewhere chaotic but real leaving his fake partner winding things down.
OpenVi uses only secure functions (snprintf, strlcpy, etc.) as a matter of policy.

This may lead to a more secure editor for untrusted files, but it depends on how careful the other editors are. (I haven't examined them at that level.)
Interesting, I guess for me it's hard to tell how strong "remote" relationships really are. Fortunately, I'm more articulate / interesting in my writing than when people talk to me. But "being accountable" over slack for me is at least 2-3x as taxing as just having to hop into a meeting with someone or just some brief in person back and forth.

Sometimes it feels like my team performance is being gauged how much I talk through slack, in ways you'd usually just be expected to do so in person or more traditionally. When in reality, I just forget sometimes or suck at knowing how my writing comes off. Since I have an odd sense of humor / sometimes talk like a robot to make sure I'm being clear.
I also have yet to meet anyone writing Swift for any reason besides "Apple made it and it works on Apple things", so we may be at an impasse here.
There's utilities like keyd and kmonad to remap keys system wide on Linux. I've used keyd because the config is simpler for what I want. Works in tty, X11, remote. Also does layers and other fancy tricks.

Only Murphy’s Law is truly eternal. Moore’s Law will end sooner or later. Most the rest are just common trends that can be summed up with “software is hard and takes a long time to develop” or “large organizations tend to be inefficient or slow.”
Our baby had colic for the first three months. Nothing worked, as you said. Felt like it would last forever. Then one day she stopped. And at 3 months she started sleeping through the night.

We didn’t, the US has declined transfer of many weapon systems including Patriot and other air defense systems to Ukraine.

The US has supplied them primarily with small arms and man portable anti tank weapons.

The Ukrainian armed forces aren’t rolling in M1 under the cover of Apache gunships and F-35’s…

Even if they had the money for it no one would sell them any weapon systems you can’t pretty much buy on Gunbroker.
True, I was wrong. Ultimate supports everything except C stuff (CLion) and .NET (Rider), so there's three. I wonder why that is? Legacy tech debt maybe?

> Maybe we could do all the "smart" stuff in the OS and application code, and just attach commodity dumb flash chips to our computer.

Yeah, this is how things are supposed to be done and the fact it's not happening is a huge problem. Hardware makers isolate our operating systems in the exact same way operating systems isolate our processes. The operating system is not really in charge of anything, the hardware just gives it an illusory sanboxed machine to play around in, a machine that doesn't even reflect what hardware truly looks like. The real computers are all hidden and programmed by proprietery firmware.

> Still a black box. Unless everything is open—open language, open interpreter, open compiler—then it’s not open.

Then literally nothing is open because no one is doing any significant computing on a fully-open hardware stack.
Come and join us in the Rust community! It's a bit more fiddly than Swift, but it's incredibly well designed, still has that slow and steady mentality, and has a lot of the same nice quality of life features that Swift has.
> in fact, the fewer seconds people spend inside the application, the better it is for our bottom line because it means we can pump out the applications faster.

This might be true from a bottom-line perspective, but the marketing/product/engagement manager's targets (whether company-mandated or personally-mandated to use them as resume bullet points) may still hinge on increasing "engagement".
Hence why I said "http", as in java.net.http, as in, everything around an HTTP client.
In simple terms, I strongly believe that a larger network / more meaningful relationships (above the noise floor) mean more opportunities and room for learning. Generally, I see this as a 1:1 exchange in time / effort. Being remote just seems to make finding connections way harder, since talking to someone is obviously more meaningful than a LinkedIn cold message or an email.

But you're right in that part of my dilemma here is figuring out what I want to do with my time while also optimizing for decent options going forward. Frankly, I'm leaning toward the being away from hoards of people in the woods ;) .
