Jetbrains products are only partially open source, which makes them non-free and still spyware due to telemetry we can’t see.
The most valuable thing I think one can apply that kind of mind to is reading about and practising leadership. Not for the potential power, but to learn how to lead and not mislead. Use your knowledge to recognize ability in others and scale it. In a similar position, I focused on learning harder things that required physical competence and taking lessons, and not so much reading without practice. Finding specialists in the field socially was also healthy because they could kindly show how dumb I sounded, and I still seek them out for that reason.
"you can have a full fledged IDE with 0 fiddling" - that is 100% not a thing that has ever happened to me whenever I go and look at emacs/vim!

Modal editing is not really something that is needed anymore, and a lot of people don't have time to learn a new language just to move about in their IDE - just click the mouse button ...
For some, being a corporate cog has allowed them to do more. Since the added security of cog life usually provides a cushion especially in the tech sector.
"the founders announced that they had no choice but to lay off all 500ish contractors and around 1,900 employees. The CEO cried on a broadcast that we needed to say goodbye to some of our Airfam and called on us to support each other through this difficult time. “Lean on Me” by Bill Withers played at the end of the broadcast"

This stuff is sickening and toxic.
I'm not saying that yours is necessarily the case, of course I don't know, but I feel like lots of people that hold opinions like yours greatly underestimate the amount of functionality that comes with something like a Jetbrains IDE.

It's not even about the editor itself, nor the graphical or UX stuff. It's the crazy level of introspection and of understanding your code those IDEs bring. My daily experience is just insanely better than with anything else I've tried.

In something pretty weakly typed like PHP you can happily rename methods and classes, refactor and extract code, move around namespaces, and the IDE keeps track of everything for you. You also get very smart autocomplete, snippets, integrated debugger with REPL, the whole thing.

I've played around with all sorts of vim and emacs distributions and settings and nothing ever came close.

Maybe it's just I don't have the time to set it up propert
ly. But if that's the case, it's still a point in my favor here.

>an HTML-only page that renders content semantically

It would have been more semantic to use <em> for emphasized text instead of <I>.

Placeholders on form fields are not labels. The comment submit button has tabindex="-1", preventing keyboard users from submitting a comment.
Because not many people actually care how things are implemented if they work well. If some closed source iOS app is in Swift or ObjectiveC doesn't really affect me as a user.
The content is and has always been interesting, so one can forgive the design, which I feel is poor and irrational in some ways.

Poor because the line width is too long and the proportions are unattractive. Complex information that loads on hover can work offline, as in the sioyek PDF reader, when it’s fast, but is a terrible experience over the network. All that apparatus littering the text is distracting, but the ideas behind it are interesting.

Irrational because of such things as the fixed elements for site settings that only appear on the first page and fade out as you scroll down. If they're only intended to appear at the top, why give them fixed positioning?

Exactly this. Scrolling through the customisation feature list, I just see "more work", "more work", "more work" - and it's not super clear how doing all this extra work is going to help me. And I'm in the target audience for a "technical" search engine; this is a total non-starter for the 99.999% of the world we call "normal people".

The useful ideas in here is the "just my data" search, linking into external providers across siloes. Of course, Microsoft, Google & Apple already have this as long as all of your data is held in their ecosystem.
This guy maths
The 100x impact isn’t usually with proofs of concept, it’s with surgery. 1,000 lawyers would likely never identify and execute the life-saving graft, all while avoiding side effects that eventually kill the patient.

A surgical ten lines of code across 5 services can absolutely create billions of dollars out of thin air. The combination of technical, political and domain expertise required for such changes is relatively rare.

(I mean political in the purest, non-controversial sense, i.e. the communication skills to answer objections and acquire group consensus on the required change.)
I'll appeal to aphantasia here again. For me, I love to watch videos, but the visual images vanish the moment I stop watching. As such, they are an inefficient way for me to learn. I retain more when I read.

I suspect this is at the root of disagreements about 'visual learners', etc.

I have these too! Great mid-range option with a great seal (for me) and great quality. I was able to hear parts of songs I didn't realize existed.
> 4.2.2 Idiomatic err variable capture.

I'm trying to reproduce that in this play: https://go.dev/play/p/3wkkfN3bMfH

Based on the study, I expect that the final print would print `err final value err:bar, 2`, but it's `<nil>`.
And it is because it uses the shorthand variable declaration, which will make it to be in the scope of the go function closure.

Am I missing something?
Should've clarified: I don't just mean "backdoor Roth" as in "you can convert traditional to Roth" (that's common), I mean "super mega hyper ultra backdoor Roth" or whatever the kids are calling it these days where you get to take after-tax contributions and seamlessly convert them to Roth.

As someone who uses Emacs for (almost) all my editing needs and has done for about 17 years I just don’t understand how you can have these beliefs. LSP-mode is great and now with things like Spacemacs and Doom Emacs getting setup and getting things reasonably configured is a lot easier. But still!

VSCode is pretty cool and is easy to use right out of the box. It does some things with ease that would be very hard with Emacs. And JetBrains looks like it does some amazing stuff.

I still end up sticking with Emacs myself, but the idea that that it’s perfect and simple and for everyone and that there’s no sensible reasons to use the other options is just insane.
Emacs isn’t a modal editor!
When you are four years old, you lose your memories of the first years of your life. When you have kids, you live them again.
You might be surprised that many of us use Vim or Emacs and also VSCode or Sublime or Visual Studio or IntelliJ or XCode or ...

Every tool has strengths and weaknesses. Plus, some of us enjoy learning new tools and find it fun to switch things up occasionally.

Frameworks are helpful when a community would benefit by having a bit less variety in how things are done. Even if it's sub-optimal for most individual use cases, having a standard way of building applications in a community makes it easier to construct and maintain projects.
Microsoft Todo is great for this. It syncs between all your devices, Office365 and integrates with outlook (flagged emails become todo items).

You can make hierarchical folders and the recurring option is super handy.. I run much of my invoicing/AR/AP as just a recurring todo item.
So twitter is distributing malware now?

Malware is defined by Wikipedia as:

> Malware (a portmanteau for malicious software) is any software intentionally designed to cause disruption to a computer, server, client, or computer network, leak private information, gain unauthorized access to information or systems, deprive users access to information or which unknowingly interferes with the user's computer security and privacy.

This script distributed by twitter is software intentionally designed to cause a disruption to a server and to deprive users access to information.
See definition 1b2. No reason to put it in quotes, its literally one of the definitions.

We're arguing over semantics, which definition is "more right". My opinion as a bioscientist is that there is no other proper definition that lines up with the deterministic reality of the universe. Some causes are just too complex for us to understand currently so we write it off as " personal responsibility"

Just because we wrote something in law doesn't make it correct. Humans are dumb as shit.

How did you turn «doesn’t try to include context» into «completely useless»?

Bourbaki has no history, no diagrams, limited motivating discussion. It strives to be entirely axiomatic/formal, and to be organized in a strictly “logical” fashion. Bourbaki claims that intuition and analogy are dangerous/faulty and should be avoided.

That doesn’t mean you can’t learn anything from it.
Yeah, you're right. I did think EU membership was more aligned with use of the Euro (I only knew about the UK using the Pound but they're out). It's still true that each country chooses its currency but it would be just as weird to pick one country in the EU to represent Euros as picking one country to represent a language.
Just for the record, history shows crises show up in even the safest countries. Some of these are slow and creeping, and some are rapid and sudden. On the other hand, if history is any indicator, you have maybe a 1/4 chance of having some regional, national, or global crisis situation hit during your lifetime. Many of those don't require a panic room, admittedly.

My odds of being unsafe in my home under normal circumstances are small. I'm not going to argue that if you have a billion dollars, you shouldn't get a panic room. Kidnapping a billionaire is much more worthwhile than a normal bloke, and I have no idea what the risk are. For most people, though, the odds are very low.

If I were rational, at my economic level, I'd have food stashed away, a few guns, medical supplies, and similar. However, I'm lazy. It's like backups. It's a good idea, but....

Richer people might have more, and poor people might have less. I've read about safety plans for rich people, and they're interesting. If you've got a few billion dollars, dropping a million or even a few million on a crisis plan is completely rational. Poor people, on the other hand, can't afford something like food+medicine stashed away (especially since they need to be rotated with expiration).
I am convinced there is a collective post-covid emotional hangover hitting. I think we can’t simply pretend to hold it all together while so much of life changes.

Also, author would do well to get out of their head and do something radically different that doesn’t involve computers.
Nice, is there any "official" way to deploy this without Docker involved? The GitHub repo only seems to include scripts to deploy a Docker container, but not the contents of the container itself, are they on another repo?
This review is brutal, I love it.

> On The Road is, most importantly, a picture of a high-trust society collapsing. And it’s collapsing precisely because the book’s protagonists are going around defecting against everyone they meet

I took the "quiz", it said i was not eligible. It did not say why. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But you think it's very easy? I wonder what I'm missing.

I was thinking along similar lines. I kept thinking this isn't about links, it's about relationships and links in this article is being used as a synonym for relationships.

There is no revelation in seeing that everything in the entirety of existence, physically or conceptually is built out of related stuff. Nothing exists outside of everything else, except a parallel universe maybe, everything is derived from something.
While I understand the urge to improve one's life, I really feel like we have in general sort of gone off the rails in our quest for a better life.

What we have instead is now some kind of social-media-fueled, angst-driven obsession about self-optimization. Everyone is constantly obsessed with themselves and their own performance in every aspect of life.

Are you efficient enough? Are you productive enough? Are you eating healthy enough? Are you fun enough? etc

As if this wasn't enough, we can't really decide which way we want to go. Because you can't be too efficient or productive, either, since you should obviously also be relaxing and unstressing enough. And spending enough time with your family. But also writing that blog, creating side projects, and so on.

In the end this just creates an endless cycle of sadness and frustration because you're not a machine. You can't fulfill all the unrealistic goals you've set for yourself because you're not a robot.

I've given up on trying to pursue these unrealistic goals and trying to constantly self-optimize. It doesn't mean I'm just content to wallow in my own filth or that I give up on life. It just means I'm not gonna write a blog post about myself where I call myself boring because I'm not able to magically conjure up a viral side project. It means I'm not gonna compare myself to countless youtubers or instagrammers who paint the prettiest pictures of themselves they can.
The idea that these little experiment wins bring user satisfaction and/or revenue increase is a pure assumption.

Employees get so aligned with these experiment systems that obvious faults in statistical approaches go unnoticed. At the end of the day it becomes just a way to put something on your promotion case.

In most cases, core product stays the same over the years without significant innovation.
Tell HN: Google's “Find My Phone” Requires 2FA on Android
I ran into this problem a couple of times on Android where I have misplaced my phone and was trying to use the Google Find my Phone app on my Spouse's phone to locate it and have it play a sound. It used to work fairly well before - once even when I left the phone in a cab. Now it asks me to 2FA login using - you guessed it - verification on the misplaced phone or SMS before it will let me login. This is such a counter-feature that makes the Find My Phone app effectively useless

I have boxes of those 5 subject half size bound notebooks you can get at the dollar store. All filled with notes and doodles from throughout my career.

I’ve tried to switch to a digital form but always end back up at pen and paper.

Edit: well had boxes of notes, they got thrown out on the last move

No, that's not life.

I (female) met my husband by striking up a conversation with him at a bar. I didn't (and don't) have any ulterior motive for starting that conversation. I didn't even want to date/fuck him when I started talking to him, just was being friendly.

Sure, stay very vigilant about scams, cons, non-genuine people, manipulators, and attempts at recruitment, but it's simply not true that every single female stranger has ulterior motives.
Kubesimplify community is an awesome community to explore cloud native technologies.Thank you to the Saiyam Pathak-> (Man On Mission) who started this community.

I use neovim within vscode. All the power of vim but with intellisense and debugging working with minimal configuration.

As for telemetry, all my work lives in Azure so I assume Microsoft are already collecting what they want about our codebase (which is publicly visible) already.
but did you use those binaries on windows? because thats what i want to achieve
>> Most of all, I need to stop being boring.

nope, you don't. You need to just accept the fact that you are boring AF and live with it.
Dynamic screen resizing has a few bugs. E.g. I dragged right screen border around and at one point (almost minimal width) saw that logo becomes gigantic and takes pretty much all the screen space.

The issue is that you're likely leaving too much on your inbox.
I use my inbox as a to-do list (especially before Gmail removed inbox and its reminders, now I just create a draft with a title) but it doesn't contain the backlog of all the projects I'm working on.

If you have too many tasks that needs to be done I think you should group them by activity and store them in a separate place.
Then you can timebox "dealing with $activity" where you just get down with those tasks.

Eventually you can hire someone and give them the task of a certain activity (which can be anything: a software project, dealing with a visa application, buying a house etc)
I think your launch failed for the following reasons:

- horrible mobile experience

- people who are looking for a solution that lets them focus are not inclined to read through the wall of text on the site

- the try-before-you-buy features are lost at a glance and focus easily shifts to the $2.98 part

Why not build the site so that it immediately brings up a simple, self-explanatory UI, especially on mobile? Let the users discover the features and the limitations.

If it’s not usable that way then iterate until it is. Hide the wall of text into some about page.

You will find your lost creativity by ingesting a very small amount of psilocybin mushrooms.
Show HN: New Release of ServiceNow Ansible Collection, Version 1.3.3
My impression was that in the US you get compensated pretty nicely while in a startup. The whole idea is to get funded so that you can attract talent with crazy salaries. Or did I get something wrong?
If it got hot enough you could use a geothermal-type generator for reasonable efficiency, but that is (of course) still exploiting a temprature differential (a place where water remains liquid, and a hot place where it becomes high pressure steam to drive a turbine). However sadly that is unlikely to happen before the tunnels become unlivable :)
I am convinced everyone needs a certain amount of stress in their lives. Too little and you end up super-existential; too much and you end up feeling burnt out.

It took me a long time to acclimate to having children. I probably had postpartum depression as a dad. Especially early on, kids are a big stressor, and having them should be a deliberate choice.

It’s also the most impactful work you will ever do, and once you see that for yourself, it’s hard to see your career in exactly the same way.
Why should anyone work on a "true alternative to Windows"? (Beyond, of course, the several options already out there (Macs, tablets, Chromebooks, various and sundry Linux desktop environments, etc)?)

I wrote this 9 years ago - https://antipaucity.com/2013/06/04/this-is-not-the-year-of-t...

And it's as true today as it was then

With very very rare exception, it does not matter what desktop you run

So run what you want
“ Writing code in your terminal shouldn’t feel like 1978. Edit your commands like in a modern code editor with selections, cursor positioning, and completion menus.”

That sounds a bit ageist :) also - can command editing integrate with my editor of choice? I don’t want to have to learn how to use another editor - I already know my way around bash keyboard shortcuts, having to learn a third thing sounds like a step backwards.

Revise.jl[1] is very helpful for development, as it allows for seamless recompilation without restarts. Cold start can also take a long time, so sometimes it helps to add options[2] such as -O0 when developing. Two paths forward for AOT compilation are PackageCompiler.jl[3] mentioned already in this thread (things like RelocatableFolders.jl[4] come in handy) and the possibility of GPUCompiler.jl[5] some day.

Cancer research is hard work where smart people burn themselves out to fight for scraps. Optimizing metrics for bigtech at least easily pays for retirement. I don't know, maybe it's dumb to choose to optimize ads and get paid 500k and still be able to act like the company owes you. The alternative is to save lives, and in return live a life where you constantly have to beg for the next grant, and the people you save are only grateful to the MDs, say PhDs aren't real doctors, and vote for people who either want to cut science budgets or remove meritocracy to destroy your career.

Before you complain how people waste their talent, maybe ask yourself what you did to help them. Or broadly how to truly make society reward people who do God's work. Society cares about getting likes, don't want to pay even a little for quality work, so smart people give them a platform to earn likes and show them ads. Everyone is complicit, the worst among them put all blame on "smart people".
Thanks for sharing this! The idea seems very nice, but why should this be hosted on a third-party server? I want to keep my data for myself... the title is misleading, this is not a software but a service!

For mu4e and Exchange, I use:

-offlineimap

both linux and macos.

and in my home laptop, davmail because it allows me to use 2FA, which has been implemented at my Uni for external use.
I'm absolutely paralyzed by this at the moment.

I want the mobility of a digital solution, so much of my documentation and task items are spread across Evernote and Trello. Except an analog solution such as a note card or post-it notes has a physical prescense that's very focused and attention grabbing.

>I like being able to choose between hundreds of different laptops to find the right price point to hardware power.

You're definitely one of the weird ones (which may (or may not) be "good")

The overwhelming majority of people do not want to waste time choosing "between hundreds of different laptops" - they want to get whatever they need to get done done with minimal issues

Such variety in "choice" often leads to being overwhelmed with the options, and going for one of the three or four you already know anyways

Don't want to run Windows? Cool - get a Chromebook, Mac Book, or any of the scores of laptops that'll run Linux nicely
