We've been doing this for a few years now. Biggest non-intentional thing that came out of it was that the entire team started speaking in terms of commit hashes.

Once a non-technical person learns that the entire state of a product/project/organization can be described by a hash, they will begin to abuse it for literally everything. And, I totally endorse this. Its incredible to watch unfold. An employee passively noting the current commit hash like its the time of day puts a bit of joy into my brain every time.

Everyone can speak this language. The semantics are ridiculously simple.
git seems like the wrong tool for monorepos so what is used instead if you can't immediately just build your own tools
I think smaller/mid sized companies have fully embraced remote in many cases. The people I talk to appear pretty serious about it and have highly distributed teams that just aren't all going to go back to an office.
I’m mostly familiar with Vancouver since my wife has relatives there. About half a dozen years ago they imposed a 15% tax on foreign real estate investors. I heard 2015 figures suggesting foreign Chinese investors accounted for one third of the $29 billion market in 2015. Vancouver real estate prices had been rising a lot for a long time but I think they felt the foreign investors exacerbated the problem for locals, especially since a lot of investors would just buy homes and no one would live in them.
Looks like they have a bunch of papers about my current interest (FORTH - in fact there there is (was: final issue 1994) a SIGFORTH). I came to ask how you actually read the papers but I found out there are PDF icons you can click on when you do a search on https://dl.acm.org/
Advent of Code and the Amp Operator
> But I ultimately think of mathematics as a just an invented tool whose only reason for existence is to solve concrete problems.

This might be the source of disconnect. I frequently encounter this perspective and worry there's a fundamental problem with how mathematics is taught if so many people walk away believing this. Whether or not humans ever mastered mathematics, what is and isn't mathematically true would not change. Humans can create notation and formalisms, but they do not invent the truths those mathematics represent.
The french version of those are France24 and RFI, they're already available in english. I think Le Monde in english is more comparable to Spiegel International.
Enjoy life while you're here. Smoke weed. Have sex. Take a vacation. Listen to music. Go scuba diving. Write a book. None of it matters anyway.
> Even if this is true, the very fact that it was even an option that came up in discussion in Cabinet says a lot.

Not really. Two years ago, when COVID started to spread outside China, the initial concern was the potential impact it would have on saturating national health services and there was no concern regarding it's death rate, which led to the "flatten the curve" political talking point.

Keep in mind that "flatten the curve" implies that everyone is expected to contract the disease sooner or later, but only in a way that doesn't overwhelm health services. Back then it was presumed that contracting COVID was not a cause for concern, and that after the first infection then everyone was finally immune and everything was back to normal.

Only after COVID was experienced first hand outside of china, and thus without being subjected to the CCP's censors, did the world learned about it's true fatality rate, transmission rate, reinfection rate, and lingering health problems. Afterwards there were subsequent variants which again became pandemics.

When the real impact of COVID started to become noticeable, the approach to the disease changed radically to one based on containment at all cost followed by mass vaccination campaigns once the first effective vaccines started to become available.
I think you can clone just the last commit:

> Provide an argument of -- depth 1 to the git clone command to copy only the latest revision of a repo:

git clone -–depth [depth] [remote-url]
Google at least has separate repos for the linux kernel and android, and probably others (chrome/os/ium?). The hugeness of google3 is not in doubt, but the mono-ness may be.
>That market doesn't exist because it requires buy in from the business, businesses that see the value in targeted and performance driven advertising do it in house because its so valuable, other businesses just don't do it because they see no value in it and they see no value in it because they don't do it.

All that sounds like to me is that the company providing OP's posited "non-insulting services" would just need to make sure they're marketing their product correctly and demonstrating value properly.
One thing I noticed long ago when looking at opium paraphernalia in NY flea markets was how much flair people invest into their drug consumption. Alcohol is no different and damn I love a manhattan in a nice crystal low ball or an imperial pint of ale ...
No you're right, as someone who takes these things seriously, I should hold myself to a higher standard than to paint in such broad strokes. Thanks for checking me there.

Allow me to rephrase from a more compassionate perspective:

I don't expect any of these people to devote the type of effort that I have into this knowledge.

But I do wish they knew this stuff, because with even a little bit of this knowledge, they could have the power to make their own restaurant/software shop/insert_small_business more successful than it otherwise could have been... which may even be the difference between them successfully running said business vs. having to take a job they don't like.

Ultimately, it's a be the change you wish to see situation, I suppose.
So there will be a one time correction of prices on essential goods and services. Inflation means a sustained increase in prices over time, though.
Apple’s album art has been janky for me for 20 years

My wife and I sync music from the same Apple Music library.

On her iPhone, the album artwork is completely random.

On my iPhone, it's always correct.

No amount of wiping the phone, or even upgrading to new phones, will change this. Apple Music just hates her.
There are some counter arguments to what you said, but I agree for the most part.

The exact numbers are below for anyone curious.

The cost of generating solar power ranges from $36 to $44 per megawatt hour (MWh), the WNISR said, while onshore wind power comes in at $29–$56 per MWh. Nuclear energy costs between $112 and $189.

Got the email so I must have signed up before. Demo video looks awesome! Just some feedback, when I visited the site on my mobile, I scrolled down, and it scrolled horizontally with weird widths, which made it feel not tested on mobile, plus the menu hamburger didn’t work, so I couldn’t find the pricing, and it made me reconsider whether I’d rely on this in production. For reference, I’m on iOS Firefox (which is basically safari).
We just had a Federal election though? :/

Unless you are referring to this toothless promise made prior to the election in question, and now they're happy to follow that as it won't actually change anything.
United Nations suspends Russia from human rights body over Ukraine
This is how I got locked out of my 10 year old skype account (good riddance). The support _cannot_ do anything due to some silly child protection laws (coppa maybe?).

Ask HN: How do you avoid video game addiction?
I'm a mid 30s male, software developer, married without children.

I started playing a video game at the end of 2019, and played every time I could when my wife was not home. Then came 2020, covid lockdowns, also I started getting better at the game (the ladder systems are so addictive) and played more. In 2021 I just didn't care anymore whether my wife was home or not or even if I was supposed to be working and started playing all the time. I'd wake up early to play and would go to bed late to catch up with work I had not done during the day.

According to Steam I played over 2.000 hours during 2020 and 2021.

Finally I decided I was seriously addicted and uninstalled the game, unsubscribed from everyone related to the game in youtube, quit all discord communities, and it worked.

I have been now "clean" for 4 months. But sometimes I crave to go back and play. I watched a youtube video in incognito recently of some famous player and had so much urge to play again. But I'm afraid just by installing the game I will be going back to the addiction.

Is it possible to have a "healthy" amount of playing? Let's say just a couple of hours in the weekends? The only reason I think I have been able to not play for 4 months is because it's time consuming for me to download/install the game again, set my keyboard shortcuts, etc. It will take at least 1 hour for me to set up everything and that's what is preventing me to go back. But if I had the game available and ready to launch in a click I am not sure I would be able to play only some hours on the weekends.

What I love about this particular game is how I can totally focus mind and body for each 30-40 minutes match where I won't take a look at my cellphone or anything can distract me really because I'm totally focused basically in a real "flow" state. Of course it's a flow state for something irrelevant to my life or society, so it's basically a waste of time I guess... But I also don't have the change to get to this flow state in my day job or in other activity really, adult life can be so boring sometimes...

Really curious if someone else has experienced something similar
Have you actually tried that? I know the server _can_ expose a TCP socket but it's not clear to me if it's intended to work across machines.
Is there any research on proven negative effects? This paper is only about "potential" negative effects. From the conclusion:

Following the intake of microplastics into the human body, their fate and effects are still controversial and not well known. [...] Not enough information is available to fully understand the implications of microplastics for human health;
I'd argue that the optimal configuration is really a compromise; use sub modules with a dvcs tool like git.
You get the organizational benefits of monorepos with the isolation benefits of individual repos. Your branches go stale in weeks rather than days, cloning even with full history can be very fast, and you don't need to learn new tools when you change organizations.
Having Windows restart itself is a pet peeve of mine, but as long as you have Windows 10 Pro there are some local admin policies you can set to make sure it never restarts while you're logged in. This is the one key thing I do and it prevents Windows from restarting and losing your work.
> is this any kind of science?

It's the "new kind of science". /s
Yeah at this point I either would look for on-site positions or for companies that logistically cannot call people into the office, heh.

My company, for example, literally has no real estate. There is no office to even go into.
It's a complex issue for sure. There was a time where I was more drawn to being against the list.

But... when you look at how the world turns, and that Jim Crow was legal well into my parents lifetime, and that some individuals fight against things like privacy rights in pursuit of their own agenda and others fight for universal payments under the guise of "general welfare", the scope provided by a written list seems like the pragmatic choice.

The largest credible estimates for Chernobyl are in the hundreds or in the single-digit thousands. Estimates larger than that make significant methodological errors, like failing to account for better technologies for diagnosing certain types of cancer (especially thyroid cancer).

For Fukushima, most estimates predict zero deaths due to radiation exposure besides the plant workers.
> lead in car fuel that made us dumb

It wasn't just car fuel, we would also cover the walls of our homes with lead paint. A practice that still continues in some countries.

> As of 31 May 2020, 75 countries have confirmed they have legally binding controls to limit the production, import and sale of lead paints, which is 39% of all countries. In many countries, using lead paint in homes and schools is not prohibited, creating a significant risk of children’s exposure to lead.

https://www.who.int/news/item/31-05-2020-global-progress-tow...

One has to wonder whether the individuals who insist on selling lead paint have any morality or sense of ethics.

We've known about the harmful effects of lead additives in paint since at least 1786 (efforts to ban lead paint began around 1921) before it's ban in 1976 (US).

The unimaginable number of people who have likely being afflicted by health issues (learning disabilities, poor health, shortened lifespan) through no fault of their own, knowingly by those who manufacture and sell the products creating such debilitating issues, it's difficult to imagine there being any possible forgiveness for such actions.
Absolutely! I remember Basecamp's CEO tweeting about this https://twitter.com/jasonfried/status/1168986962704982016

In the replies Google says: "we don’t restrict trademarked terms as keywords. We do restrict trademarked terms in ad text if the trademark owner files a complaint"

It's a gamble on the strength of your brand to not buy that ad. I think it makes sense that eBay can do away with it, because people typing "eBay" in Google will scroll down for eBay, they won't click on "Company X - Best eBay alternative." Most brands aren't that strong...
Oh man! I remember reading awhile back that the same thing happened at eBay. eBay actually performed the same experiment and found that people were not finding eBay through ads. At least not enough to matter. If anyone has a source for this, let me know. I can't find the link I had on it.
Often times I am writing to state reps who represent closer to the 30k number.

Also, the reps themselves don't often answer letters, but have aides that can do that based on the reps position.
When covid appeared, I remembered this as a two-part concern. (1) was the damned thing was similar to sars and mers and it was contagious. This is bad. These previous coronaviruses killed people 30-40 by cytokine storm. (2) was the fact that covid was killing old or sick people damn quickly by cytokine storm. There were other effects (heart inflammation) but burning out the lungs was a real concern.

Things turned out way better than they could have due to early, effective vaccines and the omicron mutation. Because of sars/mers, the knew they needed something to throttle down the cytokine storm to prevent killing healthy early middle aged people - that “real strong immune system” people were proud of was the source of the storm.

Like hiv, if the body can’t clear the infection things remain “under attack” and the virus keeps mutating under evolutionary pressure. I thought he feeling was that omicron came from a long term hiv positive or mice (which have a way faster mutation cycle). This kind of allergic response of the immune system is a risk for most new large molecule drugs and is the basis for diseases like RA and IBD.
I was shocked and alarmed at the cellphone bills when I moved to the US from a third world country, and then my classmate who had moved to Canada sent me his bill...
The NATO stuff is really silly. It is not like NATO is in any way pressuring countries to join. There are countries desperate to join that NATO choose not to accept. People and countries should be free to choose their own destiny, not based on some history or sphere of influence.

Russia/Warsaw pact was different, they had to station troops in the countries to keep them in the "alliance". Any NATO country is free to leave at any time.
The fact that your solution for long-term storage isn't even operational yet renders the confidence in your line of arguments ad absurdum. The fact that you try to defuse the GPs concerns with short-sentenced bullet points says it all - you're dismissive and strongly opinionated, while the concerned are asking very valid questions. That's bad intellectual culture, to say the least.
Google recruiters have been doing this sort of thing for years. Most google SWE roles advertised in San Francisco didn't exist there, they just advertised to dupe you into taking the bus to Mountain View. I was told that if my interview was successful I'd need to work in Mountain View for a while, then apply to work in SF.

I asked a friend who works there, he said that requested to move to SF as soon as he was done with his first few month. He's a there 3 years, fairly senior and with three kids, commuting from the east bay (he loved covid), but he's still on the "waiting list".
The person in question here probably didn't get banned for being a sex worker.

The actual reason is fairly easily understood by examining the second tweet of the original chain. She tried to order DoorDash for someone in LA that she was fundraising for whilst she herself is in New York City (her bio states she works for the New York University).

My guess is that the mismatch of her geolocation versus the place she ordered at triggered an anti-abuse algorithm and disabled the account "just in case".

Mind you that she also openly opposed trying to figure anything out from the support (apparently contacting DoorDash' PR account through DMs is "doxxing her to DoorDash", which y'know is weird since she already was a customer at DoorDash) and seems to be golden hammering the reason based on her own professions (when all you have is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail).

For their part, DoorDash has openly said that they don't give a damn to the DailyDot and that her refusal to try and talk with DoorDash is the only real hindrance to them doing something about it: https://www.dailydot.com/debug/dominatrix-banned-from-doorda...
OK but it still takes a long time with millions of source files.
I can understand at least the reasoning behind checking criminal history of potential hirings (even though as an European, I disagree with the concept on a fundamental level and it's illegal in Germany to demand a criminal record check outside of very specific industries).

But how on earth do civil lawsuit records in the US end up anywhere where the background-checking industry can get their grubby paws on them?!
I've never had that happen.

Your team is either incredibly rude, or they're too polite to say that they're zoning out because the meeting is a waste of time.
> makes some predictions and is relativistically correct.

Many of which are obviously wrong. We do not observe 11-dimensional world.
My advice. Focus on spending time with friends and family and helping others. Advice I'm not very good at taking myself.

Let me add, "spending time with friends" to me means "find a job where I like the people and want the hangout with them" so that I don't have some 8-10hrs a day of something I want to avoid. Those have been the best times in my life where going to work was fun because it was like hanging out with friends. Friends I would see outside of work as well. That work was also on small teams (< 30 people), on small projects where I had a lot of influence, to the point that the project felt like something I was helping to create and had some pride in how it turned out. In other words, not just a cog in a machine.
I don't understand the point of this actually, if supposedly the hiring process is so expensive and error prone and takes so long to get the right person, why would you go through all that with someone who says they will only work remote and then when it is time for work to start say - gotcha!
> Do people sign a contract that states something differently than they were being told verbally before?

Yes. All the time.

And verbal agreements are valid contracts too, if you can prove they exist (but good luck in that).

Anyway, this particular case looks more like the OP believed on the promises of a 3rd party (the recruiter), so it's not actually a contract.
I always like to see how old I can make myself. 1902? (The 2038 problem in reverse.) 1776? 5 B.C.?

My experience is that I can usually only go back to the 1930s.
I think that depends a lot on how that marketing is actually done. Just having an influencer read an ad text or insert a prerecorded segment feels just as annoying as regular ads, sometimes even more as there is no Skip-button or adBlock that can make it go away quickly.

Actual products reviews, even when they are not all positiv, on the other side I find extremely effective. Same for behind-the-scenes video that show you how a product is made and tested. As what an ad should ideally do is really just show me that the product exist and what it can do. That's all I care about and that's what most regular ads completely fail at.

Even if I go hunting for the actual websites of a product, they never contain the information I am looking for. I find it completely ridiculous how bad most ads are in that regard. I don't even expect much, size, photos from all angles, photos of stuff that's in the box. Really basic stuff. Most Youtuber's will include that in their unboxing and product reviews, companies very rarely do.

Trust is important, but you don't just gain that by having popular influencer read your lies, you gain that by not lying in the first place. Few companies seem to realize that.

That said, I am a sample size of one and other people will make purchase decisions differently.
The general answer nowadays is "you don't": you spin up a new VM and provision it using whatever IaC/scripting solution works for you.

Edit to add: even if this were possible, it would be made exta challenging due to the cloud provider specific agents that are installed in VMs.
I went through a long remote job search in mid-2019. What I experienced was that even when companies said they were open to remote, my status as a remote hire was almost always a decisive factor in them hiring some other candidate over me. I need to remain remote for family reasons so it's a bit disappointing to hear that the recruitment and interview problems for remote candidates may not have improved that much from COVID.
Amazon sell a lot of stuff and consequently compete with a lot of legacy companies:
Brick and mortar retail in nearly all fields (fashion, food, tools, appliance, books, etc), other online marketplaces (often with a mail order past) and even some tech companies.

Generally, companies are unwilling to give money to their competitor, reinforcing it.

They also might want to avoid some PR issues, as using your competitors product can lead to juicy stories depending on the situation/field.

If they are somewhat paranoid, they can also be reluctant to have their data accessible by their competitor (and I'm not talking DBs access there, even something like ELB logs can give valuable information, iirc such story did pop a few years)

Working for a marketing SaaS solution, requests from our clients to not be hosted on AWS are still quite common.
This article displays an astounding level of ignorance about how to run workloads absent a container orchestrator.
