Well you have to ignore the total absolutism and extreme rhetoric that is taken from either direction: Those "who totally support it" and think that all crypto projects and its technology will take over the banks, institutions and payment processors and those "who are totally against" it and think it will 100% collapse, go away and the technology won't be used by anyone.

I'm afraid that both of them are setting themselves up to being disappointed.
This is about the most “begging the question” Ask HN I’ve ever seen.

There are whole industries devoted to creative endeavors!
For sure there's plenty of circumstances where you don't need more performance, but you can't seriously argue re-implementing another linked list is simpler, easier to write, easier to understand or easier to debug than `std::vector`/`Vec`. Multiple allocations and setting up pointers is certainly more complex than allocation/copy. It's most definitely easier to write because you're not writing it, someone else already has. It's easier to read because there's a whole lot less of it. And a single contiguous allocation is way easier to debug.

I wonder if "growing pains" fully captures what's going on here. It might just be natural for people to grab more layers and tools when the run into problems. Everyone loves to demo how the new thing works with "just a simple YAML file."

Honestly everyone would be better off doing everything in code (python, bash, go, rust, c it doesn't matter) directly. They're easy to debug, flexible, and everyone already knows how to work with them.

The US has 2.2 BN acres which is 7 acres for every man, woman, and child, and yet each person resides on maybe 0.05 acres (average lot size is .2 acres divided by average household size of 2.5 people/household is 0.08 rounding down because tens of millions don’t live in a single-family building). There is a tremendous amount of space that isn’t inhabited—much of that is used for farming, but we farm far more than we need—millions of acres could be used for housing.

Anyway, I’m not saying everyone needs to pack up and move out of cities—only that the gospel of urban density sounds dystopian to me.

Yeah, it's kind of a bummer how many things are being designed just for Raspberry Pi usage. For instance, Klipper for 3d printers. Technically you can use it on a Linux system, but they don't officially support that or tell you how. They only support the Raspberry Pi.
Yep. I used it in a kernel to create a linked list of statically allocated data structures in a context where dynamic allocation was off the table. You can see the code here:

Umbrella JavaScript: Tiny library for DOM manipulation and events
This has been studied quite a bit by sociologists. Schools in low-income areas tend to reward subordination and punish self-expression. Closed campuses, metal detectors, the start-of-class bells... the messages are clear. Schools in middle-income areas tend to nurture some more creativity, though within limits; the upper-class prep schools tend to be most academically lenient (although the students are brutal and hazing/sexual abuse are common).

So... this is mostly a middle- to upper-middle class perspective, that of people who were bred to take white-collar "creative" jobs that are no longer creative and haven't been for ~40 years, due to consolidation and geographic polarization (e.g., society no longer has demand for cutting-edge advertising firms in Duluth or even Minneapolis).

In my ~20-year career I have never once been in a workplace setting where creativity wasn't valued. This is especially true of "technological creativity" (finding a new way of solving a complex technical problem, or better yet - finding some way to NOT have to solve the problem in the first place). But it is also true of "product / business creativity", "marketing creativity", etc. That does not mean that all ideas have equal merit. A new-grad hire may think their creative ideas aren't valued, but that is just because they don't yet truly know all the problem constraints - in a few years' time their creativity will shine.

I also had a situation a couple of times very early in my career, where as an intern I proposed some truly novel approaches, and was told that yes, they're potentially very good, but very risky and never tried before, and that I'm only there for X months and won't be around to deal with the consequences if they fail, so they're not going to do it - but I was told that if I was a full-timer, the decision may have been different.
As mentioned in another comment, they’re rates are “fine”. Not the best,but definitely not bad.

They do rely on the “coolness” factor of working for LEGO though. Many people work there because their parents did or because they think it’s cool.

They generally treat their employees very nice and I’d have no problem recommending them as a employer.

It’s still a multinational enterprise though, with all the problems that it entails (corporate restructuring every 2-3 years, anyone?)

>I'm not talking about actual agricultural industries that require that much space, I'm talking about people living in rural areas just because they like it better. Everyone depends on farms, we can subsidize those

So what about the people who live there to provide education to the farmers' kids? What about the people who work at the local restaurants and grocery stores that serve farmers? What about the people who live there to provide trash service for the people who serve the farmers?

Where does it end and why does it end at that point?

Society [noun]: the aggregate of people living together in a more or less ordered community.

It's not like we can lay out roads and say, "this is for farm machinery only, nobody else gets to use it." So, via subsidizing agriculture, you are going to subsidize some people who choose to live out there.

I don't get how you could possibly disentangle that in any way that isn't completely unsustainable. I also don't understand why you would want to; something, something, common good.
Device can improve your quality of life – A Pressure Cooker
Don't trust a stranger on the internet, but that was me until a few months ago.

Until recently, my life has been a slow descent into an abyss of despair. Then I got diagnosed and since I've started medication, for the first time in my life I am actually proud of myself. Proud of all my talents and place in the world. There actually is hope and excitement for the future.

Here's my suggestion: do everything possible to talk with a psychiatrist. Get diagnosed. It might be something else, but if it's ADHD you'll be happy to learn that treatment is _very_ effective and often life changing. This is not hyperbole.
Forecourt Futures?
I deal with one of these 'killer problems' every day. Hard money, aka inflation, is a very important economic problem.

For example, inflation forces market participant behaviour that they would have otherwise avoided. For example, a pensioner is 'forced' to take on market risk to gain a real return on their savings when they are very risk adverse.

Savers are disincentivized as there is a negative yield on their capital, and this has an impact on capital investment.

That's just regular old propaganda [0], even many of Russians in Ukraine think they are there for a positive reason, like actually denazifying Ukraine.

Just like plenty of Americans had the positive reason of debaathifying Iraq for serving there.

But even American soldiers are not always convinced of that "positive impetus" [1], particularly after witnessing the realities on the ground for long enough.

This is an interesting question because it begs itself in a sort of sad way.

It basically says, why do something if it doesn't directly equate to value in the market, which is kind of sad.

The answer, simply, is because hopefully the value of life isn't easily boiled down to that....but a bigger answer is because it just isn't true.

If you are an entry level at some kind of stem profession, be it programming or science research or whatever then you typically get the grunt work of data processing and executing boilerplate code building.

Once you move up though that isn't true anymore. You typically have to solve some outlandish problems for people and often times problems that are vaguely described to you and this requires creativity.

Good luck scaling a system built in 2007 to support 5 million clients without just a pinch of creativity.

If you believe that's all there is to those ideas, maybe you need to step away and think about them for a while. Sure, there's going to be some resume padding happening in larger orgs. But all those ideas solve real problems too.

I think you're just in a very negative space if you start with "Distributed systems" as something overly complicated. At some scale getting a bigger machine either doesn't make financial sense or is just not possible to implement efficiently. Some ideas are taken too far or implemented where not needed. But I'd rather recommend you to learn where each one of them started and why. Criticize for valid reasons, but don't become a curmudgeon.

Dream Job: How to Start a Successful YouTube Channel
This is kind of an odd question since creativity is actually highly rewarded in my job and I'm not even in a creative role.

I mean, if your boss says "people aren't buying our product" or "how can we fit this code into half the space" or "we need something that gets our customers attention" all of those require creativity.

I think OP is looking at it way to narrowly.
Like everything there are pros and cons. If you only promote from within, you create a barrier for anyone wanting to join. This makes the culture conservative and fragile due to lack of change. Imagine if the only way to get a job is by starting in the mail room and working your way up to CEO. On the other hand, loyal workers who are treated right by the company, have a good chance of maintaining the company's values and strong relationships with customers.

The purpose of school isn't to create employees. If it was about creating workers then yes, just show them whatever makes money. It's an impoverished view of education that somehow has gained traction in our world, and it needs to be explained why it is impoverished.

Kids need to be educated because knowing a bunch of stuff about the world is the greatest gift we can give them, and it needs to be given while they are still young enough to appreciate it. You can't live a full life without knowing a fair amount about all there is to know, and you can't experience things without having some context.

Knowing only things that are economically useful will still leave you in a place where you wonder how the world works, and wondering why there's a hole in your soul.
Sorry, do you think that the problem with fake news is that malicious actors impersonate, say, the NYT or Snopes, and "publish" fake articles under the name of a trusted source?

That does not seem to be the problem (and insofar as it is, HTTPS/TLS seems pretty good at fixing it: if you go to https://www.nytimes.com, you can be pretty sure that you get the NYT). I don't see what blockchain could add here?
Well, this is just a big turn-off. GitLab did this to me recently, apparently for security purposes. However, someone changing my password for me is a mega breach in my security.

Other companies who market to Software Engineers, and security folk, should take heed.

> It's not that employers don't reward creativity quite the opposite most do.

Most employers don't reward or punish creativity itself. They don't care. As long as the boss doesn't look bad in front of his boss, no one cares either way if you're creative. The system, however, is built not to rely on individual excellence (that being rare, and usually coming with personality). You can do fine without creativity; the disruptive elements that almost always come with a creativty personality are never appreciated in the corporate world.

> The real problem is employers do not like this unbridled creativity that is not tempered with experience.

No, that's not it. (I do agree that creativity grows in value with experience, and that experience is undervalued in the technology industry, but that's a separate debate.) It's just that more experienced people know to hide their creativity unless there's a major personal payoff (i.e., a massive promotion or 6+ figure bonus) because otherwise there is only downside. Sometimes, just doing your job too well can cause problems by making others look bad.

Wow. This comment sent me down a rabbit hole. Thank you.
One hypothesis (but not a single answer) is that complexity creates jobs. Engineering something complex and clever creates job security and consulting hours. Fads, trends, and ideas come and go like the tide, and it makes the big wheel go around. Kubernetes, which 99% of developers have no use case for, is indeed “job security” for what could equally be achieving achieve with Unix and a few she’ll scripts. (I’m being deliberately provocative here).

That does look like a decent collection of functionality, but a HashMap as mentioned in the submission seems like a pretty glaring omission. I can't remember the last time I wrote a program that didn't use a Map. Even dynamic languages that tend to be quite light on types almost universally include a map type.

I can definitely see the problems with the Node "explosion of modules" approach, but if we're looking at fixing issues with C then IMO "everyone implementing their own data structures and not always with the care and attention they deserve" is right up there with things like lack of proper arrays/strings and poor null handling.

It seems like it ought to be possible to find a middle ground where dependencies are easy to find, install, update and integrate with a standardised build system, but where there is a cultural norm of being conscious of dependency size and not using micro-dependencies
This question is getting a lot of attention. As such, it is consuming our time. I’d suggest it can be improved and revised. Currently, it is rather vague. I suspect the author could take more time and make it clearer. There are a lot of interesting themes — it deserves to be unpacked and clarified.

> For example, I was raised on the concept that dietary fat was bad (margarine was healthier than butter) and we now know this is not the case.

Do you know who perpetuated that lie, that dietary fat was bad? Instead of waiting for you to guess, I'll tell you: it was a for-profit industrial complex who wanted to make money.

The pharmaceutical industry is also a for-profit industry, so now that you realize you were tricked about dietary fat - do you presume that the pharmaceutical industry wouldn't do the same?

You have really interesting deflection tactics, I must say, and the put-down attempts are quite subtle compared to most people.

And you're not honest about how a person learns information: you claim you can only work with basic knowledge of the immune system, putting forward that again as a strawman - an argument I never made for you to needd to counter - probably because you weren't able to actually argue against any points I actually made, so you needed the strawman as filler to make it look like you could defend your position.

Here, watch these videos, and then we can actually focus on argument points you disagree with - you'll have to find evidence/sources to refute the specifics to what these highly credentialed and experienced doctors and experts say though, and not just smear campaign articles on them:
