"Move fast and break things" and "mission critical" are opposing forces that just do not mesh.

My team and I run emergency services communications infrastructure with 99.999% availability requirements and our company has to pay an abatement if we don't maintain those levels. That's actually mission critical. We don't run ANY script or SQL command in production that deletes data without having tested it in our dev/test environment, documented the steps of the change and the results of testing, having the change reviewed internally, and approved by the government.

We can get these changes approved and into production in around a week normally.

That is one of the possibilities they mentioned in the Dutch news.

But also, for instance, in could be that e-bikes are used for different trips.

However, normal bike accidents are also up. So another direction they mentioned is that there are just more cyclists on the road. The problem is they don’t know much about how bikes are being used & where & by whom.

So they really cannot say much on why there is an increase
Sure, in today’s world.

That’s like saying it would be naive and irresponsible for me to go outside without a life preserver today despite an unforeseen catastrophic global flood drowning the lands 10 years from now. It was a different world, with different expectations and frameworks.

Isn't this statement a bit Kafka-esque? The implication of this is that if you don't live in fear, somehow associating the mundane flood of meaningless content that is social media with you purposefully being misdirected by Russia, you're just ignorant.
The GP is saying "I miss the days where I could easily exploit people" and the response was "I miss the days where we respected each other enough to not exploit each other". It wasn't naive or irresponsible, but reflective of a time with more trust, cooperation, and good intentions.

The extra configuration around setting up git to track $HOME is interesting.

My setup is pretty lame compared to that: I just have a ~/.local/dotfiles/ git repo and symlink my various files from that repo.

The "git config status.showUntrackedFiles no" is a nice touch, I'll have to try that sometime.

NixOS home manager seems pretty cool, but that feels like a huge dependency. It also isn't available on my MacOS client work machine so sharing between multiple computers might be difficult (for me, at least)

> On the contrary, this is not an existential issue for the US and they would not intervene directly against China (they've always been very careful never to commit to intervening).

There’s no benefit to verbally committing so you don’t need to do that. Better to keep China guessing. But there is 0 doubt that the US would intervene. This is an existential issue because if China invaded Taiwan successfully it shows the U.S. military can be defeated, and greatly diminishes their security guarantees and ability to project power in Asia. It’s similar to if Russia defeated the U.S. and forced military presence out of Europe. There is little doubt here.

It’s not at all similar to Ukraine. Like in any way whatsoever. If you have any specific questions I could probably answer those as to why it’s not similar.
Occupy didn't go all in class struggle and that's why I think they were apolitical nihilists.
> On the contrary, this is not an existential issue for the US and they would not intervene directly against China (they've always been very careful never to commit to intervening).

They've also never committed not to intervene and made many implications that they might. No one really know what the US would do.
Very effective. As long as you only retroactively accuse Russia of responsibility for all of the democratic outcomes that you didn't want.
If a, b and c are MyObject's "dependencies", that's dependency injection. If MyObject has no other dependencies (produces no side effects other than on a/b/c), it is fully dependency injected.

Dependency injection as a concept is simple functional approach to imperative and OO programming.
I don't think anybody selling Beanie Babies was claiming to be transforming finance and democratizing intellectual property or making any of the many other ludicrous claims in the web3/crypto space. When I look at web3/crypto, at best I see "solutions" in search of a problem, but mostly I see confused techno-utopianism mixed with Beanie Babies and various other scams and empty crazes.

A lot of stuff on the Web sucks (always has), but importantly, there was always a sizeable proportion that didn't (Wikipedia, etc.). Cryptocurrencies are so bad at doing what they originally set out to do (function as currencies in at least some of the ways that currencies are useful), that anything in the space is almost universally exhibiting the problems I mentioned above.

I had the thought a few months ago that crypto is just a meme, a potent viral marketing scheme for the modern era. The gig economy notion of the article resonates strongly with me.
> It's possible that Russia swallows their joining NATO, as it did with the two rounds of NATO expansion in the past (former Warsaw pact, then Baltics). It's also possible that Russia sees that as an existential threat, as it did in the case of the announced third NATO expansion (Georgia and Ukraine).

Russia has no real choice this time, they have already shown that there military is both weak and ineffectual. Either Finland or Sweden would absolutely crush the Russian military in their own countries.
This is not new at all. I recall reading a post on reddit describing insider trading at coinbase years ago. That was back in 2016 when they added ETH.

> brings information onto the market sooner

Nope. "Non-public information" is part of the definition of insider trading FFS. Only the secondary information represented by the transaction itself becomes public. The counterparty gets what they think is a good price but turns out to be a bad one because of the hidden information. That's a tangible loss to them, and any further trades they make while their putative and actual situations diverge will create more misleading market signals. This is such basic knowledge that it should be required for anyone trading anything riskier than an index fund or seeking a job in finance.

HN has its own groupthink. For crypto it's that it's all coal powered shiba shitcoins.

There was likely a similar group of people bitching in 1999. The dotcom bubble did happen, and yet dot coms also happened.

The point is that to see the upside, you need to evaluate what new capabilities the tech offers, whether they're interesting, and who is doing the real work (if it exists).

How do these people buy groceries or pay regular bills? Most places don’t accept crypto for payments.

If and when the whole world has moved to crypto payments I’m sure they’ll review it again. Until then the argument there are lots of people who have crypto and have not heard of / don’t know how to use a Visa card stretches credulity.
I think I mostly agree. There's really no need to join NATO. I feel like the positioning against Russia needs to thinking a little more long term.

For example, the sanctions are necessary short term, but I hope they can be lifted in the future. If we damage long term trade by creating new supply chains and sources that exclude Russia from the global market place even after the war is over and leadership changes, then we may have backed them into a corner, creating an almost inevitable conflict.
There's that...

But it seems there are at least a couple of working installations of that type in the world and companies offering it commercially instead of in 'perpetual trial' mode. Repairing those must be a pretty shitty job.
That's like saying it's naive and irresponsible to gooutside without locking your front door when you live in a tiny remote village with 40 other people you've known for your whole life.

I am aware of lyra. Its pretty good. Very computationally expensive though - no audio application I have ever worked on had even close to the power/thermal budgets that would allow use of the deep-learning codecs. Maybe someday we will get very low-energy hardware accelerators for them, but until then, these are a non-starter for things I work on.

The thing is (and maybe this is a nitpick), once you are down to several hundred bps for speech, its getting to be more like speech-to-text (the encoder) and text-to-speech (decoder) than an audio codec.

I am actually not aware of any non-speech audio codecs which can go that low. Any links?

Not necessarily. A U.S. defeat in Taiwan makes China the dominant economic and military power in the region, so those countries would court stronger military and economic ties to China in order to keep from being invaded or punished, since the U.S. would be proved incapable of doing anything.

> if you want something you can’t get at work

This is not about "something you can’t get at work". I have problems doing sex/drug/rock'n'roll at work, just seem not to be able to get to it. Hence it gets pushed to the wknds.

This is about ensuring you can keep coding at work while making promotions. This is "work coding" not "side-project coding".

>My current role has involved a lot less coding lately, and I need to make time to keep my skills sharp and/or learn new things.

You seem to be okay with cannibalizing your wknd for work. Great that that works for you, but I think this should not be expected and is not the answer to OPs question.

Also, I think it fits the workaholic mindset that I try to avoid altogether.

I think it's fair to say that most tokens are effectively trash, and there are many scams in crypto.

Relative to other speculative manias in history, crypto is a mechanism for mania and speculation. You can't trade tulips on tulips. But you can trade crypto on crypto.

For example, in the British railway mania of the 1840s, many patterns occurred similar to today's crypto frenzy, such as stock exchanges created expressly for the purpose of trading railway stocks and publications to talk about and advertise railway stocks. But railways lack crypto's reflexivity because you can't trade railway stocks on railways. Crypto mechanizes its own speculative mania.

But what's the other side here? Does it even exist? I think it does exist. In my view, a balanced discussion of the pros and cons of crypto often seems to elude the HN community.

HN is a community of technologists, right? So what's the actual technology here? At the root of crypto are two technologies, 1) programmatic public chains that are inexpensive to run and 2) zero-knowledge proofs.

By combining public chains and zero-knowledge proofs, we get an inherently global market, with p2p transactions that scale to all of humanity, where you can send money digitally, similar to handing a $20 bill to a friend. And the transfers can include rigid, sophisticated logic that offers the potential to reduce transaction costs for many kinds of routine economic activity.

So, while it's fair to say that most crypto tokens are effectively trash and crypto mechanizes scams and speculation, it's also unfair to omit discussion of the fundamental innovation, and those who do so will end up on the wrong side of history.

It's 2021's fresh take on the influencer model, but instead of shilling weight-loss pills they're shilling crypto. Is that a noble pursuit?

Kraken and Coinbase?

But yes I feel that 250k+ salaries are outliers, most of these companies are just smart enough to hire remote-first, and 150k or even 100k takes you pretty far if you hire outside the US.

That's why the claim above that big tech employees would be jumping ship to web3 opportunities sounds far-fetched, even anecdotally my friends making 2-3-400k at "web2" companies are definitely not going anywhere near web3.
I generally (perhaps naively) think that going forward knowledge loss won't be much of an issue compared to our history.
