I’ve been here for just over a week, in that time I’ve been robbed twice. Once by a knife-wielding gang that slashed my tires as I was driving

My friends in the Mossos tell me that this is has all become super common after COVID, before such attacks would’ve been unheard of. Pretty much all of my local friends agree that everything has gone to shit after COVID bankrupted half the city.

It might be simple demographic differences leading us to experience this differently. Of course I’m more likely to be targeted driving a newish S-class than the guy in a Dacia, but this wasn’t something you had to worry about before.
But if both choices provided a free service of great value for years, is it fair to complain when A at some point wants money for the highly valuable service? I don’t see a lot of Fastmail customers having this issue.
Forget about GDPR, PII, Incorporation, Taxes, etc... No one is going to care about you/what you are doing unless you are making real money or disrupting something. Once you start making real money, start spending some of it on regulation/legal.
> Plenty of high prestige world cities like Tokyo or London or Paris aren't known for their pro sports teams. They seem to suffer little for it.

There are counter examples as well. The New York Yankees? The Dallas Cowboys? Toronto Maple Leafs? Take away the sports franchises from those cities and it would definitely be a huge economic and cultural hit to those cities.
> Wasted unpleasantly-spent time is money too, if there's enough of it.

Ah, but with access to a good airport lounge, the extra time there is quite pleasantly spent. And YMMV, but for me, time spent stressed about being late for a flight is extremely unpleasantly spent.
I'm not sure this is right, when you make energy flow to the colder system the entropy decreases (by definition).

Just curious, I see so much "pumping" around Rust, and as an engineer myself, I beg the question: why the hype here specifically?
A previous company I worked at used a Vortex86DX embedded board as a replacement for an older Pentium/Celeron board that went EOL. It was one of the last x86 CPUs made that still supported the ISA bus that the product used to talk to custom hardware.

> If we put Andre in prison, Seattle's taxpayers would be paying $3,400/mo to keep him there

He and his ilk do much more damage to the city than that, when they're allowed to continue their criminal lifestyles.
Well I agree with your point but not the supporting argument. The thing about world cities is that they are world cities because everything can be found there, they are simply that large and diverse, and losing any one thing would not make them less important. Someplace like NYC isn't on the map because the Giants are there. Now it's also true that there are only a handful of cities that don't need to care about having a sports team (but have them anyway).

Maybe the more apt example is Green Bay, a city that would otherwise be a total unknown. Mid-tier cities like Indianapolis as well. There's a number of other cities like Liverpool that are known for the Beatles and a sports team. For those cities, you can see why the mayor might think it's worthwhile to help out the local sports team. Nonetheless, it's still likely the case that it's really a waste of money.
I’m kinda shocked youre downvoted, this is a very reasonable take.

Real estate can be a great investment, but it has very high transaction costs, is not diversified at all (real estate is entirely local), and has high maintenance costs.
My mom always told me I was certainty
No, it doesn't. Because not all software companies can be a) under influence of a foreign government potentially hostile towards yours and b) software has varying degrees of replacement difficulty.

Example - building an entire smart city network on top of Huawei network gear. It would be very difficult to rip it out and replace on a whim if China suddenly decided to side with Russia in a war against the West, which is literally a possibility floating in the air right now. End state - you have a hostile actor who has access & control of your critical infrastructure. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
> I don't care if the body of the ticket is empty and as the Engineer you prefer to write it in a notebook.

> I don't care where the conversation gets recorded, or at all (provided the people are capable of remembering it).

That -"provided the people are capable of remembering it"- is quite a restriction you got there. If some engineer writes it in their own notebook, some other one simply goes by their own memories, etc, then I'm willing to bet there will be different memories of how it went and at least some of those will be fragmented or lost. And every time you need that information, you'll find yourself having to re-search it, re-compile it, and reconcile it again. And then someone leaves and that perspective of the conversation history is lost forever.

I mean, sure, don't put the tool over the actual conversation. But then again, please, do use a tool to register history, key arguments, accepted limitations, relevant decisions, actions taken.

> This is strong evidence of a team working with extremely shared context.

Not really, no. It may be a reflection of that... or it may be a reflection of something else entirely. Like some people making small notes so they will remember and nobody else reacting to them. Ideas that come up but are never discussed afterwards.

The visible result of this can be exactly the same as what you describe and yet the situation is totally different.
This sounds like a user error. Every Linux installer I've seen will ask which device you want the bootloader files on. Most will even warn of an unbootable install if you don't specify a valid EFI partition if you're installing to GPT disks. Making the EFI partition is also extremely easy. You just need to use a tool like GParted to make a 500MB FAT32 partition at the start of a drive somewhere.

Apple Macs also have notoriously difficult firmware (only made to boot macOS or Windows via Bootcamp with special drivers). You should try something designed to cope with its pure awfulness like the rEFInd bootloader instead of GRUB or whatever systemd uses.
> Any city or state that refuses to pay will lose out until every city or state refuses to pay.

They may lose out on the chance to fork over millions (or billions) to a bunch of already crazily wealthy team owners, and maybe that means the stadium doesn't get built, or maybe it means that team leaves and market forces are such that if its a big enough city is makes economic sense for a new team to come in an build their own stadium (maybe not as glorious, but good enough to host games and sell tickets). Those millions (or billions) not gifted to the old team owner might be then spent on improving infrastructure or making better schools and parks and things that make a city nice to live making it even better off then before.

Remember when Amazon wanted all those perks from NYC to put offices there and then everyone was like 'no effing way' and so they backed down. Amazon still opened offices in NYC because it freakin' NYC. They never needed the incentives.

The "Umeshism" makes no sense to me, because I missed a flight once and it was pretty traumatic. We were getting back to London after a weekend break in mainland Europe. We were too casual getting through to the gate and got there a few minutes after it closed (still 25 mins before the scheduled departure). Ended up having to pay a tonne for another flight that night to Bristol, and phoning up my parents to ask them to make a four hour round trip to pick us up and let us stay at theirs, before making our way back to London in the morning.

I never want to experience this again and I now make sure I'm at the airport well in time.
Get them to start using svix.com :P

Seriously though, that's why we built it, so this all too common issue, won't be a thing for companies.
Used to work at Intermec, which got bought by Honeywell. They just wanted the customers, so began to cut back the midwest office. Guy I knew who still worked there, a customer special projects Engineer, got asked "What would it take to keep you?" He said "$1M a year and my own budget". They said "No, really?"

See, he routinely made several times that annually for the company in retained customers and won contracts. If they'd had any sense, any idea of how profit and loss worked, they'd have snapped him up in a minute. But they let him go.

Of course later the office closed entirely, not making enough money. What a surprise.
That's definitely not representative of the general sentiment. As far as I'm concerned, probably around 95% of my debugging time is spent on Safari. Stuff usually works like a charm in Chrome or Firefox. Safari is a gigantic pain due to its plethora of bugs (and new ones appearing with each release) and missing features preventing you to easily work around them.

That write up itself sounded like the "humble brag" that the author was complaining about.

Ukrainian hackers say HackerOne is blocking their bug bounty payouts
Remind me of a random idea from heard somewhere: I’m not crazy because crazy people don’t think they are crazy…

Loved what the author mentioned about how not being an imposter can be verified. Have you produced something that solves a customer need? Have you fixed a bug in somebody’s code? Have you produced something that is of value to somebody else? Then you are not an imposter! You are able to do what a typical developer should do.

We all don’t need to be Linuses or Bills or R&K to not be an imposter.

At the same time, I totally agree with the author’s assertion about the irony of “confessing” feeling like an imposter. It’s like bragging about how humble one is!
the result infinite loop issue is easily the most confusing part of nix. It works because nix is a lazy functional language. But I'm not particularly sold on that laziness being useful since it leads to awkward hacks like the two arguments to an overlay function. It has the one benefit of allowing you to not care about the order that overlays get called in. However it does that by giving your code magical come from semantics that make debugging a problem harder than it needs to be. I think the nix lazy semantics would actually have been better left out in favor of clearer dependency semantics.

In a way the clearer dependency semantics of flakes are are driving the reason they are increasing in adoption so much. In essence they work around the problems introduced by overly clever usage of laziness in a nix package.
Yeah, a sport where you wear a sweater during the summer. For five days.

This is also the best sport to show in an office, because people don't watch anything but the wickets. I used to work on a trading floor where they showed it all day on a screen, no problem.
Another unwelcome change is that disabling the YouTube app no longer allows opening YouTube links in an external application, forcing them to open in Chrome instead.

I use just a handful of services that require Chrome, so it's unreasonable to have to disable it entirely to restore default historical behaviors. Really feels like throwing their toys out of the crib over not having total dominance on people's devices.
The problem with ‘commercial’ kitchen equipment is that most of it is just up branded domestic equipment.

When you do buy ‘commercial’ kitchen equipment you’ll notice lots of things that are just downright worse. Energy efficiency, safety features, and noise reduction are all things that are _way_ worse than with their domestic counterparts.
It solves a large class of problems that are not handled in C and C++. Some people are hyped that it can solve all problems under the son, while others don't like the hype talk or are deeply invested in C and C++ knowledge and don't like their belittlement.
So the basic idea is that I’d you have a two particle system (a and b) and each particle can be in a low (a and b) or high energy (A and B) state then you can have the following combinations: ab, Ab, aB, and AB. Since particles are indistinguishable Ab and Ba are the high entropy states but ab and AB are low entropy states?

Nope.

I lucked out in 2007 and decided to rent rather than buy. Economy went into the shitter after and after a couple years my company had lay offs but I was lucky enough to jump to a better role in another city.

I spent $36,000 in rent over 2 years.

I had several friends who bought with $60,000 down and paid $50,000 in mortgage payments and property taxes.

When I moved I gave my landlord the keys and got my deposit back.

When they moved their house was way underwater, so they sent the bank the keys and walked away.

I spent $74,000+ less on housing than they did by renting.

It was just luck and sure an extreme example but man the lessons of 2008 have been very quickly forgotten.
Sanction is such a strange word. It can mean both "giving permission or approval" as well as "giving a penalty for noncompliance with a rule or law"

I also misread the headline as the latter instead of the former, likely because of the latter type of sanctions being in the news as of late.
Just because Jim Kramer says so doesn’t mean it’s true.

If they’d have kept referring to Google instead of Alphabet, it could be MAGMA.

I should tell Jim Kramer. Maybe he’ll make that change official.
> How many days since one of their clubs was front page international news? Chelsea football club was near the front in New Zealand this week

London-based club Chelsea has been front page news in the UK this week because its Russian owner (Roman Abramovich) has been targeted by sanctions imposed as a result of the invasion of Ukraine, throwing the future of the club (and its massively expensive players) into doubt. Some casual googling shows that this story has been covered by Fox News, Deutsche Welle in Germany, Italy 24 News and others

> appear to have basically just put a web UI on their java inheritance tree with zero thought given to making it understandable

Exactly my impression. I used to work for Thingworx, more industrially oriented, and that's what was done there (also a java object astronautical culture), with an additional layer of generics to double complexity. They had some great ideas but any user would need a training class to be productive.
The problem with this is that you're effectively forcing people who hate sports stadium to pay for them, not to mention those living nearby who are going to be affected by the noise, traffic jam and pollution caused by the stadium.

Why not let the teams crowdfund and build their own stadium like any other risky venture without capital?
> If someone is implementing something that is inherently complicated, I much prefer to see the complete picture and do one thorough review than be drip-fed little pieces for a series of smaller reviews. That way, I can take the time to understand what is really happening, and look for potential dangers

But isn't this what design review is for? So you don't end up in a position where you suddenly have a 500 line change set based on misunderstood requirements, and you have to review the code to find out?

Many of the things you mention should be caught in design review, and then even more of them would be caught in an early draft review (say 50–150 lines of code) with most of the actual implementation stubbed out.

That way, when you finally get to the big 500 line full implementation, almost all of the high-level concerns have been worked out at an earlier (cheaper!) stage so only minor comments remain, and those it is effective to be drip-fed.

> The Federal Reserve Bank creates money

So not the government.

> When the Fed "sets interest rates" on bonds

It doesn't set the interest rates on treasury bonds. They set a target and engage in the market to get the price to that level. Still a private entity doing private things. Not the government

> Sometimes literally by physically printing it, but more often by crediting someone's account in their computers

Definitely not!

> More money is created this way when interest rates are lower because people take out more loans then.

This is the only way money is created. The previous paragraph is far from how anything works.

> just how important big teams like say, Chelsea or Barca are for a huge chunk of not just the people who live in their home cities but also across the world.

Here "important to" is equivalent to "liked/entertained by", as a form of entertainment. The question here is what forms of entertainment should tax payers pay for and your comparison with art museums, operas and orchestras is apt.

> let's say barca wanted to leave Barcelona, do you think the city shouldn't do anything about it because it helps billionaires?

If barca were extorting the city of Barcelona by demanding they pay 10s or 100s of millions to upgrade Camp Nou, then the city should tell the team to go to hell. This exact scenario has played out in multiple cities in the US and with the IOC and city bids.

You did it wrong. Had you instead just turned around, checked into a nice hotel, gone out for a nice dinner and caught the first flight to London in the morning it would have been far less traumatic.

You know like normal rich people do. \s
Yeah but it will take years for this to happen, and just replacing the trucks is only part of the cost - you still need to build new infrastructure to either charge with electricity or fuel with hydrogen. But wait! There is more - you need to pay millions to get rid of all the old infrastructure like gas stations that cities have, with old fuel tanks, distributors etc. In the current economic climate, I don't see how most of the cities could afford to do all of this.
You also might have heard about this saying which goes by: 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions' and it goes both ways. At least I happen to recognize that, unlike the grandparent comment.

Sure, simple websites mostly work in Safari. But we're in 2022, and indeed a lot of companies develop web apps, and not simple websites like 20 years ago.

The web itself is an app platform. The only browser preventing it to happen on mobile is Safari. Have a look at the desktop. There, web apps have replaced most native apps long ago.
