His only statement so far on the far (keeping in mind this is rather than saying nothing) called it a "situation" in Ukraine. That's not much to read into, but he also could have chosen to say absolutely nothing.

"We welcome the start of negotiations to resolve the current situation in Ukraine and hope that they will lead to a cessation of hostilities and a compromise. We believe that peaceful dialogue is the only possible instrument for resolving conflicts. War isn’t good for anyone."
Whoa really?

I'm sorry, and retract my ignorant assumption! Going to try it out now.
I don't think active shooter drills are that helpful. I think they are mainly "useful" as a political tool to take pressure off politicians and prevent any change in the "political climate".
I homeschool my children, and I don't grade their work. Instead, I use the errors they make to guide my teaching; what they can't do successfully obviously needs more of my attention and theirs.

What's interesting is the difference that makes in what feels like an accomplishment to them. Whereas I would be proud, in the public schools, to have the highest test score, my kids are proudest when they manage to excel after failing. If they excel the first time around, their response is, "Well, okay, but that section was easy."

I think that's a more beneficial attitude to carry into their futures.

That doesn't require your lock vendor to know anything about your location. Homekit for example can do this with your bridge doing the work, and any cloud-required data being e2e encrypted.
I don’t see your point. I live in an apartment in a relatively urban area, and it is literally true that the bike infrastructure here is such that using a bike regularly puts you in much more danger than using a car. The city I live in isn’t going to build the infrastructure to ride a bike safely just because I stubbornly chose to ride a bike and put myself in danger. In the meantime, I’ll vote for candidates and ballot initiatives to support such infrastructure. But talking down to people who care about their personal safety is just going to alienate them.
I've worked in the USA at numerous companies for 30 years and never was sent to "active shooter training". I have had anti-harassment training, suspicious person training, security training, safety training, and then some but not active shooter, ever. Not that it would bother me, but then again what exactly is there to learn? "Duck"?
This is good. Secret ballot empowers voters. Public ballot only makes sense if the voter is a representative of other people and they want their record public for continued support.
>expecting desirable land near a city not to densify

I think that's fair. I'm worried that some of this conversation is just a misunderstanding between the California-based population on HN. I'm fine with residents of California voting to modify their zoning laws to allow more density in principle.

My claim is that even areas away from dense urban environments seem to be getting more crowded. It seems like every place is. If it were restricted to urban environments and their suburbs I wouldn't worry so much. Even the rural areas are growing up and getting more crowded.
You can make up as many what-if scenarios as you wish, at the end of the day someone asked for legal advice in a (now deleted) Tweet about not complying with his company's request while working in an at-will state.

I think he, unfortunately, had to learn the hard way that distributing illegal documents on a Twitter account with a bio that associates your employer isn't going to go over well.

When you live up north you quickly realize that a bike is not a all-season practical mode of transportation. Additionally, when you have kids, everything changes.

I’d imagine there’s some challenging judgement calls that such a tool would have to make. Like, in Go, you can reorder the members of a struct definition. In many cases this is just diff noise to reviewers. HOWEVER, it does impact the layout of the struct in memory, so it can be semantically meaningful in performance work.
The sanctions in question are against Kaspersky Labs the company, not Eugene Kaspersky the man. Frankly none of the analysis involves a decision as to whether he is a "dirtbag", by association or not. It's just that there's no way anyone can reasonably trust "security" software produced by entities in a totalitarian state, especially so when it's at war.
I've been really excited for the electric revolution exactly because of all of the things that can be done differently. A huge example in my mind is the X-57 concept plane.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA_X-57_Maxwell

Lightweight electric motors allow for a couple of noteworthy improvements:

* With the reduced weight of electric motors, they can now be placed at the ends of wings, with props that can then be used to counter the wingtip vortices and combat induced drag.

* The simplicity of electric power distribution means that propulsion can be done all along the wing's length, which can enhance lift coefficients by actively overcoming boundary layer conditions that lead to stalls.

* The increased wing lift coefficients mean that smaller and lighter wings can be used, which reduce structural weight as well as parasitic drag.

I'm not sure if we'll see production aircraft like this, but this is a great example of rethinking design decisions that were standardized under an entirely different regime of design constraints.
Along with the various other libraries and frameworks mentioned;

* Testcontainers - seamless support for using Docker in integration tests [1]

* Project Reactor - nice framework for reactive programming
[2]

* Executable Jars - No need to deploy a War file to a servlet container anymore. Build an executable Jar with an embedded container. Spring Boot makes this very easy

Buying my house.

My montly mortgage payment for the whole house is ~67% of what I was previously paying to rent a single room. And of that 67%, only 4% is interest (and that 4% is going to go down with time)

So effectively I'm spending 3% of what I was spending previously.
A martyr is someone who is killed because of their beliefs - it is the ultimate sacrifice.

I don't know the author but I'm going to guess he's not a martyr. He will get another job by the end of the week if he wants and I'm sure he knew that going in. The cost of getting fired was probably very low.

He was presented with an ultimatum: hold your high ground or keep your job.

It's precisely because of the low cost of losing his job that he was able to hold the high ground. It won't be the same for everyone. For every person who can afford to stand their ground, there's someone else who can't - someone else who has to sacrifice their own values to keep their medical benefits. And that's why we celebrate and hold up the people who can hold their ground - because they represent everyone who can't.

This isn't a pity party for the author. He never asked for pity. I read his post as surprise at how low Zoom would go.

I love htmx. It allows me to write code on the server and forget about most of the boring client stuff.

If you're a PHP dev check Yoyo Framework. It's like Laravel Livewire without all the bloat from Laravel.
We use django + react. I've long been curious about HTMX but one thing has been holding me back that I'm trying to get others' opinion on: the npm ecosystem is incredibly rich. I'm thinking of drop in components like maps, UI libs, etc.

Don't I need to spend a lot more effort using their original JS incantations and integrating that w/HTMX?
Yes!

Food and water benefit from bulk transport to cities up to the last mile or less. Outside of cities everyone needs to travel individually to get food (growing up it was 5 miles and for some often much more!)
I'm all for reducing our overconsumption, but asking everyone to give up their cars and homes and get bikes/apartments doesn't make sense outside of big cities. Of course, some people will argue that everyone should move to cities--it's true that cities are more space efficient, but it would be immensely depressing both literally (cities are associated with significantly increased levels of depression and other mood disorders) and figuratively regarding the loss of cultural and lifestyle diversity. Perhaps most importantly, this is never actually going to happen, so maybe we should just focus on minimizing the volume of useless, toxic garbage we import from China (which relies on subsidies in the form of pollution and slavery).
You know a lot of people who went to elite schools! :)
The game will die financially at some point regardless, the message i replied to wrote that it is about the game surviving. A game does not need to absolutely require everyone use the same server to survive as has been proven by other games also not requiring that.

Keep in mind again that this is about the game surviving not about squeezing all the money possible out of their playerbase - after all the topic was about hating what video games have become.

I’ve slowly amped up my lying over time. I hit a peak in my life where I never lied - this caused me to never get a job. Always knew the other side was lying too but not exactly how far. Realized it was incredibly deep and terrible lying - accepted lying is a normal part of working in a dysfunctional system and just has to be done. Made my peace with that and moved on.

Lying on the Internet? Ah… sometimes I know what you mean. I’ve written some things out but didn’t follow through. The reason? Why bother? I already wrote it. Why do I need people to engage with it? That - to me - is the fundamental issue. Your need of attention and approval. Creative writing can be a fun endeavor but I don’t need anyone to see my lies and get bad information. Think about that a bit more.

In the rest of my life - I basically never lie (or even deceive or exclude details) excluding a select few questions that I know aren’t worth explaining answers to. Due to this and my upbringing - people can never tell when I’m lying. I think people think I’m lying more often than I am.

I pay the price for not lying by omission. That one - I’d highly recommend doing. I’m about to consider embracing it a bit more because - damn - it’s super annoying since people aren’t used to that level of honesty. Everyone lies so often in many different ways that it’s hard to take someone who is actually honest and real and then not judge them super harshly (because surely they must be excluding the truly horrific shit like everyone else excludes the bad stuff in their life!).

Google translates this as:

In August I am always more surprised at those jokes he bore than those he himself uttered, who has greater praise for patience than for eloquence, especially when he bore with equanimity even some of the more biting jokes. A rough joke of a provincial became known. He had entered Rome, most like Caesar, and had turned the mouths of all on him. Augustus ordered the man to be brought to him, and it seemed as if he asked in this manner: Tell me, young man, was your mother at any time in Rome? He denied it, nor was content with it, but added, "But my father often."

What makes you think so?
What do you want to hear? That you're right? Communication is a two way street, try treating it like one. "To be on thin ice" is an expression which means in a precarious or risky situation, but is commonly used in reference to personal regard or favor. !!!!!!YOU'RE RIGHT!!!! (congratulations!) Java is not at risk of falling out of use - it's a very heavily used language with lots of job opportunities. Congratulations again on being technically correct. If that's all you wanted stop reading.

I'm saying that writing, maintaining and deploying Java in a manner that is fast, pleasant, sustainable, performant and desirable for developers is already at risk, in my opinion. As a developer, Java is *not* the best solution and taking away the niceties listed puts Java in a place where it is at risk of being unsuitable for the task. This isn't solely a fault of Java, some of this is simply better solutions for problems existing around Java. Java moved quite slowly for a long time and solutions filled that gap. I understand a business' desire to have a uniform programming language that they can hire for, but these days languages look very similar and polyglotism isn't that hard to find. Choosing the right language for the task is an engineering decision just like preserving language uniformity is. I don't think either is wrong, but the more people try to make Java a place that is worse than it's competitors, the more I'll favor choosing a different right language over preserving uniformity. I hope this helps clarify what I saw to be an extremely benign opinion to voice.
Agreed on the overreaction thing. When I explain America to non-Americans, I tell them that most of our weirdest behaviors and practices make sense if you assume everyone's main concern at all times is never to ever be, personally, blamed for or responsible for anything—external costs of bringing about that state of things, be damned.
Even american security companies have ties to the intelligence community. Kaspersky is no different. In most countries private sector pays more so state hackers work at places like Crowdstrike or Kaspersky after some time. Their relationship with the IC helps develop and share intelligence both ways.
You are thinking from a completely different perspective.

There's nothing for governments to allow people to communicate freely. Telegram is one of the few platforms that allows that... and this is a good opportunity for the US government to do that.

I support a lottery type system 100%, it would be a sane way to calm the current pressure. I don't think it would collapse the system at all. It would effectively create a pipeline of smart qualified kids into the existing networks of the schools. The lottery kids would be successful after college, and continue to reinforce the network. The only difference would be the network would look more Asian/Indian.

Investing has been 24/7 for a long time for professional investors who traded markets globally - New York, Hong Kong, London, etc. And crypto investors have been doing it with BTC and the rest for a long time too. And futures markets too are popular with institutions.

Extended hours have been creeping earlier and later around the core market hours of 9:30am to 4pm but volumes are typically very low and price discovery remains suspect. Most serious investors look to trade around 10 or 10:30 and then again in the afternoon when liquidity is best and price discovery is more reliable.

More trading is actually bad for most people who should be "investing" and not trying to make a quick buck with call options. I wish Robin Hood would start helping people mature into lifelong investors instead.
Thanks for the clarification.

So it is not a situation were we have actual evidence of dirtbaggery against the company, but that we are rationally paranoid that Kaspersky Lab could somehow steal our Pokemons.
In practice I'm looking to do exactly this.

I think there's a big difference in this case between what I should practically do to meet my goals and the philosophical argument at issue. In other words, even if I always lose the philosophical argument, I can simply try to buy some large plot of rural land as you suggest.

Philosophically, I worry about what happens when density is the only choice left for people, and a large majority of them don't or won't understand why that might be so unpalatable for a significant minority of people.
Sure, it's all fun & games when everyone is in on the joke. Just like the flat earthers, up until some musician gets into a twitter spat with Neil Degrasse Tyson over the flatness (or lack thereof) of the Earth.

Only with birds, we'll have non-ironic activists burning down chicken coops and claiming the so-called "meat" we buy in supermarkets is some kind of mind control or Soylent Green, and all evidence that it started as a joke will be taken as evidence of a coverup.

Not opposed to the office myself, "new" offices are nowhere what the glory of the old office days.
One hybrid day in the office meant none of the familiar faces also shared the same areas.

Instead I saw one maybe two familiar faces and the rest of the empty office was a doldrum of emptiness.. The undependable nature of the new "who's on first" office musical chairs is gaudy. It's a mishap waiting to happen, and there are no world expert managers who also have experience re-engaging a whole new social scene in a post apocalyptic world of the empty office space. Drudgery is the new office scene... Blehhh

Re: configuring, I've used (Neo)Vim for +15 years, and I configure very rarely. I started out with a 5 line .vimrc which is now a 150 line init.vim, about half of which is plugin installation and a few options for ALE.

That said when I do configure, I'm dedicated to it. The goal is to set it and forget it for literally years in order to build up muscle memory. So it's worth playing around and finding what works.

It did take me a few months of consistent use to get better in Vim than other editors. I think that's faster than most people? I'm a pretty good typist so I think that probably makes a big difference. All of which is to say:

- Definitely stick with it (maybe try to think of it as "cool" rather than a slog, maybe investigate cool plugins or color schemes to help reinforce that)

- Invest in your config

- Work on your typing (and address any discomfort that arises--super important)
Why so many Russians support insane Putin’s war?
I didn't understand the algorithm completely (for example, whether you post your vote anonymously or under your name, and where is the private key for the public key you mentioned).

Let's say bulletin board software replaces the vote with 20% probability. You post your vote for candidate A and see that it didn't appear on the board (because the board replaced it with vote for candidate B, but you don't know about it). How can you prove that you tried to vote for A and not for B? The records show that you have voted, and as voting is anonymous it is impossible to know how you voted.

Of course, there are other ways to meddle with such election. For example, you see that the turnout is 99%. How can you verify this number? The government refuses to publish a list of voters because GDPR doesn't allow that. And even if the country publishes this list how you can verify that the list doesn't contain fictious voters?
