> I, and a lot of other devs, would be able to solve this particular problem without looking up the docs

Look through the rest of this comment thread and see how many failed attempts at solving this problem there were before two high profile members of the ASP.NET team came in (JamesNK and davidfowl).

It's not about looking up or not looking up. The criticism here is that the way the framework is laid out is not intuitive enough. It's very "different" from the rest of the industry (in this case, there are 3 potential ways of pulling in dependencies for ASP.NET). This requires a lot of time investment for its users to solve these slight one-off issues.

My question to them below was why isn't what they shared here the default. If they had done that, it would be intuitive to know that one can add other "FrameworkReferences" in a project, or know what to search for. Instead, the default is "each project can only target one SDK".
this is one area where the FTC should be stepping in, It should be seen as blatant fraud for a business to represent themselves as another business to the point where users are confused who they are actually calling.

It always amazes me that the government is never concerned with things is SHOULD BE, instead is very concerned with things that should be none of its business.
Kudzu promotes the creation of ozone while suffocating the trees, grasses, and underbrush it dominates. I presume it destroys more carbon-exchanging vegetation than it replaces.
> Is it simply because it is enabled by default by Firefox

Largely, yes. Many people didn't signup for the Pocket integration. Mozilla should've ran a poll/survey to gauge interest, but instead it was pushed on users. You can disable it in Firefox if you don't like it. Or just use Librewolf which strips out a bunch of Mozilla stuff.
It’s partially because the cameras aren’t good enough one year, but do fulfill an edge case. The following year they fulfill another edge case. These reduces the need for using a dedicated camera, especially a bulky interchangeable lens ones, other times they fulfill an edge case that the bulky dedicated camera can’t do well either.

Makes them intriguing and fun to test out creatively. I can see the temptation.

The 13 has some things built in/enabled the 12 doesn’t have, which I had always wished the 12 had, such as video portrait mode, but I personally decided it wasn’t good enough for upgrade again, since its an ok assumption that the future models will also have that.
Which is hilarious because the phone company used to charge extra to bring you this information as if they were telling you who was calling. That's a service I'd almost be willing to pay for today if it actually worked.
The best PMs I knew were amazing analists. They wrote logs quiery processing code themselves to understand the product better instead of asking other engineers to do it. The only problem with them is that they don't stick around, but start their own startups.
It's also good for the environment. Globalization has allowed an environmental race to the bottom while simultaneously creating an illusion of environmental progress in the developed world. We've just sent all the polluting industries elsewhere.

It's not a "war over NATO membership"; that's just the Putler-propaganda framing of it.
Hey!

Your example is actually working, in that you've initialised a field type of an empty string which isn't a valid enum value.

I agree this is slightly less readable than the native switch, but it means the compiler can tell you when parts of your code try handling all enum values but don't, in fact, handle them all.

For the default switch you'll only find out at runtime, which isn't very useful when developing.

Does that make sense? The compiler warning in the article is probably the best example of what I mean here.
Yes, in the original bitcoin paper. The blockchain with the longest proof of work is always the real one, given multiple competing blockchains. That’s literally the whole point of blockchains. It’s like Highlander, there can only be one.
There are quite a few calculators that give you exact transit times for a location. You need a precise clock on your phone and then you can start shooting bursts half a second before transit until your buffer is full. It’s very anxiety inducing because you can’t see anything but so far it has worked out every time. I only have a 400mm lens so the quality is not that great but you can see the solar panels and the outline of the station.

I have also done it in front of the moon but that’s way harder because you have less light and get slower shutter speeds resulting in motion blur.
Ok, but one should be able to write "the Ukraine war crimes and Russian economic catastrophe will not stop until Putin is removed from power".
I think what people miss with MVP is how it fits into the product lifecycle.

There's inherently a not of 'gray' in the situation, so don't take more steps than you need to.

Do the 'first thing' and then adjust before the 'second thing' and just don't get too far ahead of yourselves.

Even if people loathe the MVP you'll find out why.

Going from 'Slides' to 'Something Material' is a big deal, so to it in steps.

It's almost another way of saying 'build your product incrementally' - and I you do that, the 'first increment' is an MVP.

That's it.
The amount of money that will be spent on this science fair project would be better invested into planting the actual trees.
The return on investment would be much faster and you still will need to plant these GMO trees anyway.
I think that YC should audit what their prospective, current, and older companies are doing, and avoid or forbid unethical and/or illegal behavior.

Why do you call out YC specifically? Maybe I missed the memo, but I don't look at companies coming out of YC as being made from some special moral fiber. Quite the contrary in a lot of cases, and DoorDash is just one example. If there's anything YC is "auditing", my guess is that it's a P/L sheet, not questionable business decisions.
This article is entirely about startups, which means the title is too click-baity. The idea of MVP makes a lot more sense in its more common setting: mundane corporate backoffice applications. In such a setting your audience is not millions of people; sometimes it can be one person.

When you have a small audience you aren't afforded the freedom to decide what the product should be. Of course you control the eventual product, but the stakeholder has a huge say in what must be done, and they often have a fairly clear idea of what they want. That's where MVP comes in. You and the "customer" (stakeholder) come to an agreement on the eventual product, and you deliver an MVP to them as a milestone. The point of this MVP is to give the customer something that delivers a bit of value early on, and gives them a way to try out their initial idea to see if it really holds water. Through their time using the MVP they are able to sooner refine and readjust their wish list. Maybe the end product they initially asked for wasn't quite right after all.

In the case of startups, I sort of agree with the author, but he's still missing something: the first customer is you. Yes you should have a crystalline idea of your eventual product (similar to corporate stakeholders) because that is what separates you from your competition. But you should still use MVP! MVP doesn't mean delivering unfinished garbage. MVP just means there's more to come later. "Viable" is completely subjective, and in the case of a startup with a grand vision it should absolutely be a much higher bar than usual. You the customer/entrepreneur need the MVP because you need to see how your product performs when you present it to millions of people.

The whole point is just to avoid the morass of never-ending vaporware with years of missed deadlines, only to finally deliver something nobody wants. If "MVP" is too much of a trigger word you're welcome to call it whatever you want ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That being said, I think organic waste separation of trash is a better idea than everyone composting (from a pest, disease, and efficiency of economy perspective)

I think that's very important distinction.

I think the opposite, India has benefitted historically from friction between Russia and China (Russia wanted a warm-water port in the area, but if China is a strategic partner, that's mostly irrelevant).
Maybe "The North" would be a better label then.
It is a hypocrisy, if Asian or African country buy Russian oil they are shamed and criticized vehemently, but when west does it you know ...
Very interesting. I tree plant a few months out of the year, one thing is most people can’t tell the forest from the trees.

what are the ideas and effects in a diverse ecosystem? is there any plans to safe hard natural ecosystems from getting replaced with these trees?

I could potentially support this in areas decimated by industries, like mining (as you said).
what work has been done in understanding the symbiotic relationship with fungi and these trees?
> India also has longstanding border disputes with Pakistan. I always thought (potentially ignorantly) that India would largely align itself with "the West"

India is not really west-aligned. The US also isn't exactly unfriendly with Pakistan and hasn't helped stability in that region, which India isn't happy about.

India likely also would rather have a useful Russia than China dominate entirely, and has long-standing existing trade etc relationships with Russia, where afaik India has gotten little downside or pressure from. Also, Russia is a source of cheap energy. Along the same lines, the west isn't interested in antagonizing India because it's important for influence in the region, so is unlikely to escalate unless really pushed - and buying fossil fuel which the west also hasn't entirely stopped doing it isn't pushing very hard. India does not fit in a neat this-side/that-side box here, and nobody is interested in forcing them to do so, because they might very well choose the wrong box.
I don't see it as "cult of positivity crap".

>honest grim assessment of the current situation, says what can be done to fix it, and is eager to get to work.

Complaining is 1 without 2 and 3. It isn't complaining as long as 2 and 3 are there.
Dislike of a particular aspect of a product doesn't need to be concrete/provable - a vague feeling of "I don't like this so I won't use it" is all it takes.

With Pocket in particular, the bundling with Firefox moved my impression of it from "this is a potentially useful tool" to "this company feels like they need to force their product down my throat by bundling it with a browser - I don't know why they're doing that but it makes me not want to keep any data with them"
If China attacks, Russia will be the intermediary for any trilateral talks.

If Pakistan attacks, it's because of all the money that US put in to Pakistan for Afghanistan and war against terror. If it's also only Pakistan, Russia will help in China not directly getting involved.

Geopolitics is complicated. Least you can do is remove some of the ignorance of historical relationships.

If US is not helping Ukraine, do you think it will directly help India against China?
I'm saying his claim doesn't match up with the data that is frequently reported on and therefore requested what corroborating data he was basing his claim on. If I had attempted a rebuttal, I would have directly said his claim was wrong because here's data that directly opposes it. I don't have such data and thus was seeking clarification.
Thank you for your very detailed comment and I agree with much of what you say. Please understand that I am trying in this post to share my experience as an amateur discovering, after having manipulated quite a few "standard" languages, that many concepts can be approached as a simple text rewriting process, (forget the lambda-calculus), accessible to anyone who knows how to handle a word processor. An elementary process that only needs to be judiciously combined to build booleans, data structures and touch closely the functioning of a recursion. The post is only a skeleton that requires of course some guidance and this is what I try to do in the other linked pages. Please take the trouble to check out the site, http://lambdaway.free.fr/lambdawalks where you are welcome.
> having a bunch of cash on hand

Not the best choice if denominated in a currency that loses its purchasing power by 8% annually and whose supply is managed by the people who called the 2007 housing market as "a little frothy", the 2021 inflation as "transitory", and habitually gives in to the crack addict tantrums and demands of the market for easy money if they even hint at tapering asset purchases. These people are somewhere on the spectrum from totally incompetent to actively malicious, and trusting them to steward the value of your cash savings is pants-on-head idiocy.

Identify any and all durables and non-perishables that you know for a fact you'll use in the future. Convert your fiat into those goods as fast as you possibly can. Appliances, canned food, dry rice/beans/wheat, toothpaste, keyboards, printer toner cartridges, whatever it is you use regularly, buy it now.

If you have variable-rate debt, pay it down. Pay it down now. The next rate adjustment is going to murder you.

You can also somewhat mitigate the collapse in purchasing power by converting your worthless currency into precious or base industrial metal ETFs, or globally-diversified equities. Just bear in mind that the government will steal 15-30% of your realized "gains" (which are not actually gains, just standing still in terms of purchasing power). Your half of a grass-fed cow in the freezer and 800lbs of Jasmine Rice will be taxed at precisely 0% when you eat it.

Or you can buy TIPS or other inflation-indexed securities and gamble and pray that the bullshit PCE/CPI deflator they pull out of their ass and dramatically lowballs cost-of-living increases we actually experience doesn't put you too deep into negative real yields.

There's no real winning when both your currency and your fiscal policy is managed by sociopaths, but we can still try to mitigate the damage by escaping the currency.
It also affected Firefox ESR (unless, I guess, there is a custom policy for search engines). Because, you know, system administrators simply love self-destructing software.

Tomorrow they will disable mouse input, and tell everyone that those who need it should've had a specific rule.
It gives some teeth as a counter punch, but it’s not “working out our differences” in the slightest.

What will come from this is a push for Russia and China to be completely self-dependent. Regardless of upcoming trade, the consequences are loud and clear.
The point is that economy and money flows don't care about what you perceive as useful and utilitarian. If there is an opportunity to capture the public space and hijack your eyeballs and attention, someone will try it with ads, product placement, or propaganda. Most population would happily accept rentier money from hosting a billboard or poster on their estate. Most people posting on IG aspires to be noticed by major brands, successful sport players are cancer on its own in this domain. Most websites have the tracking and ads embedded. Etc.
I think a much better question is, why can scammers spoof a phone number? We hear lots of excuses from the carriers about how this is out of their control, this is how the system works, etc. Why don't they feel like they have a fire lit under their asses to fix the issue?

My immediate guess is that they must make money off of scam calls somehow. A scam call is still a call.
On a work trip to India, I had a chance to visit the HAL aerospace museum in Bangalore. It was interesting as a museum of aircraft history but also told a story of diplomatic relations over time as well.

I, as an American, was unaware of Russian-Indian relations until that visit.
> Also - sounds pretty morbid to me to found the Jewish state near Berlin in 1947, I'm not sure all the Jewish refugees would have been super thrilled to go back to the old neighbors know what I mean?

And yet other victims of the holocaust did just that. The move to create a Jewish state in Palestine was primarily led by Jewish fundamentalists who wanted to return to their God-given promised land, it was not a necessity by any measure (as proved by other victims of the German Holocaust).

Being able to set outbound Caller ID is something that is common with SIP providers and T1/PRI providers. The most common case today is using SIP. The billing happens at the provider level, and is not based on the user defined Caller ID field. Anyone can setup an Asterisk instance and make the caller ID value on the outgoing calls whatever they want [1].

Why waste fuel moving organic waste to a central location when you can have it "processed" and used locally?
That was the big thing 20ish years ago. Programs where you could 'draw' your application and have code (most often Java) generated on the fly. Or you could feed it Java code and it would generate the diagrams for you and then you could edit the diagrams and get updated code. Lots of companies spent huge amounts of money both buying and developing those types of solutions.

It turns out that creating a 1-to-1 mapping between code and diagrams was basically impossible and you ended up with unreadable code and unusable diagrams.
And:

Making people fungible dehumanizes them. Personally I hate having to job hop just to get what I wanted from this industry.

The business community wants everybody and everything as replaceable and fungible as possible, to its long-term detriment. That so many see short-term "success" and call it that should be far more appalling than it seems to be.

Take Circuit City, for example, which, when it was already struggling, let go all of its senior sales people on the floor and replaced them with minimum wage. The knowledgeable salespeople was pretty much the only thing going for Circuit City at the time. Customers noticed, responded, and the business fell off a cliff
Absolutely! The "minimum" in MVP is about minimising the time until a viable product's in the market. It's not that worse is better, it's that - other things being equal - quicker is better.
Isn't the camera better? And also the battery life?

So, the only thing really inherent about our price point is that we're selling compute by the rack: as it turns out, a whole rack of server-class CPUs (and its accompanying DRAM, flash, NICs, and switching ASICs) is pretty expensive! But this doesn't mean that it's a luxury good: especially because customers won't need to buy software separately (as one does now for hypervisor, control plane, storage software, etc.), the Oxide rack will be very much cost competitive with extant enterprise solutions.

Cost competitive as it may be, it doesn't mean that it hits the price point for a home lab, sadly. One of the (many) advantages of an open source stack is allowing people to do these kinds of experiments on their own; looking forward to getting our schematics out there too!

I think this is a reasonable observation, but in certain high cost of living areas, and if you're willing to leave to save money in case of trouble, the math is slightly different.

E.g. in SF, you'll pay $3500+ for housing, and salaries are largely adjusted for that level of expense. But your savings are "future money", and you can choose where to spend that. Saving $300 a month, $4k a year, can add up to sums that are significant in a lower cost of living area.
The thrust of the book I've been reading, "Why CISOs Fail," is that being grim is probably the main mistake CISOs make. It's their job to find opportunities that fit within the company's existing priorities to improve the security posture, not to be delivering bad news in huge doses all the time. Besides, the CISO is there not to do the work but to be a partner at the table.
It’s not whattaboutism if they’re linked. The two actions are by belligerents in the same conflict.

EDIT: I’m also calling it whattaboutism because I don’t think folks are actually arguing that other nations should have entered the Iraq war on the side of Iraq or ISIS. If they’re legit arguing that, it’s valid (though I disagree).
Yeah. I bought a 13 Mini recently so I could use my phone with one hand, discovered I still couldn't (and I have large hands), and returned it. I don't see much point in a small-ish phone that people can't use with one hand, so I'm not surprised it's flopping. IMO they needed to either commit to a truly small phone, or give up on it. Rumor is they're doing the latter.

Guess it'll be pop-sockets for me from here on out!
C4 plants evolved when CO₂ partial pressure was low and there was a higher partial pressure of oxygen in the air, which is the opposite of the trajectory we see today. Therefore, we have reduced the selection pressure on C4 plants.

Rather than try to go against this evolutionary process, we have incorporated natural processes from other plants and algae to achieve the same effect of avoiding photorespiration.
I heavily disagree with this data interpretation. There certainly was an internet with much more prevalent death threats and it did not affect the real world at all. On the contrary, putting people uttering them on a terror list makes it a self-fulfilling prophecy. A common mistake that is often repeated with similar problems.

That is why even an accusations can have a negative effect. Compare that to accusations of racism and sexism for example.
