Disagree.

It might be a useful pattern if the language you're coding in has some other issues that arise when there's no abstract interface (can't think of an example but I have a vague memory there are some).
Sure, the implementation is simple on day 0/1/7/15/365. Depending on the project, eventually it may not be, and you'll regret not better defining the functionality.

Again, it's not that every single piece of code in your repo needs an interface, just large components, like data stores.

A martial arts fighting game that focuses on positioning/strategy vs individual attacks/tactics.

There is a theory in Aikido that difficulty peaks at 3 simultaneous attackers because after that, they will get in each other's way. [1]

So the main objective of the game is to place yourself in the best position and hold/throw enemies in advantageous directions. Actual attacks may be executed automatically for you so you can focus on the strategy.

The example of kubernetrs should have an storage interface, instead of directly on etcd is great.

I once suggested to GKE's relevant team that they should refactor K8s to have a genetic storage API that wraps etcd. They instead decided to build a etcd mock.

I guess at this point, etcd is pretty much a subproject of k8s, instead of general purpose kv system. So that would be OK.

You missed one important insight: the founder pushing employees to buy shares. That's a red flag on its own. If your options expire, that's less dilution, so there isn't really an incentive to get employees to exercise other than raising funds and the appearance of internal confidence.

Responsible leadership will give you numbers, but leave you to make your own choice. Anything else should make you worry.

>In fact, gun owners (like the general population) are heavily in favor of increasing gun control, especially things like closing loopholes in background check laws[1].

The reason that gun owners are in practice against this, of course, is that implementation of these has consequences like "you have to waive HIPAA rights to pass your background check" (WA).

I'm unconvinced that being in favor of an idea, but against the bad-faith compromises that always seem to come with it, qualifies as "extreme".

> My father literally used to bring his rifle to school for the target shooting club (not sure the exact name).

1. What kind of gun? Semi-auto or bolt action? 5.56, 30-30, .22LR?

2. How many guns did each person have? Each household?

3. What was the per capita ownership rate in the US when he was in school? (There are currently more guns than people in the US: 120.50 firearms per 100 people.)
The issuance of legal carry permits for concealed weapons isn't really relevant to a discussion about illegal mass violence that is largely carried out with long rifles.

Of course overall gun violence is dominated by pistols (but I wouldn't expect the people using pistols to commit illegal violence to be overly worried with carry permits).

I don't understand blaming Texas laws, California has much stricter laws and has technically more mass shootings per capita than Texas[0]. To me these are all such low numbers that it is hard to draw any conclusions based on policy, let alone specific legislation from a specific Governor. I'm all for practical solutions (hell I'd have them throw the second amendment out if it were even possible) but I don't know that there are many easy answers to the problem.

Something has changed in our gun culture, for sure.
People seem to be trying to argue Europe and the US are very similar culture wise but I don’t think that’s true at all.

IMO the biggest problem with the US over Europe is lack of social cohesion, lack of familial cohesion that includes extended families, focus on individualism over community, and lack of social safety nets. These factors have a huge impact on mental well being.

The idea that Europe and the US are very similar other than access to guns just because both are developed western nations is very naive…

On the combat only front, Hell Let Loose. In a single tank, just driving or gunning in the tank is a full time job for one player. There is also a tank commander who keeps situational awareness and communicates up to higher level officers. Those officers get the information and make high level goals, they are generally just looking a map and not running around doing much in person.

I'm sorry, I'm just really hesitant to believe that "the fact stands that the USA has a school shootings problem" with the statistics you linked. The website you linked to cites two sources for its data. One of the sources is CNN. The second source is something called everytownresearch. Their method for counting school shootings were:

> Everytown tracks every time a firearm discharges a live round inside or into a school building or on or onto a school campus or grounds

Which means they're counting individual fights, and or gang violence in with all these shootings. In addition it looks like the vast majority of their data points list no injuries or deaths. They also include things like this in their statistics:

> A car entered the east parking lot at a high speed and hit one student. The CCSD police officer ordered the car to stop, and when it didn't, fired their gun at the car. Two teenagers in the car-- one a 16-year-old boy and one a juvenile-- were struck and injured by the officer's gunfire.

So this is an injury sustained from an officer trying to stop two kids who injured somebody with their car, not a gun.

If you want to talk about how we can combat school shootings how about we agree to use honest statistics? It doesn't help anyone to quote shoddy studies like this. In addition I found this[1] research paper that claims the original paper people quote to show the US is the leader in school shootings does not show how they got their data. In addition they refuse to show how they calculated their statistics. This paper goes on to show that the US may be significantly lower than the number one spot.

The reason I even looked at this stuff is because in the link you posted it said there 288 school shootings in the US this year! That claim sounded very far fetched. I know there have been some nasty events so far this year, but if there had been 288 shootings this year alone, I feel like there would have been a lot more news about it. That averages to almost 2 shootings every day this year. And I'm expected to believe these statistics are a factual claim?

Edit: And yes I know that this paper is from 2018, but I'm posting it because there is clearly weird stuff going on with the statistics that were quoted in the original posters linked "research" website.

> Is the world better and happier from social media?

Yes, absolutely. I actually lived in the rotary phone era and it was fucking lonely. It's much easier to stay connected with friends now. That's especially true now that I've moved out of the city and started a family.
I think it might depend on if you're entry level or more senior. (just a guess)

Though, in my own personal experience, I've observed the exact opposite as you with regards to geography :)

I'm from the USA, and am "one of those" who's been writing software their whole life (though I only entered the market around 2001).

Over the past 10 years I've had multiple contracts where I billed my client 40hrs a week, though the work only took me perhaps an hour a day, if that. Client's extremely happy, because in his words, my hour of work is more useful than 8 hours of work from a 4 person team from India or China.

My guess, knowing nothing about how it's done over there, is that labor costs must be so inexpensive that you can assign 30 people to a 1 person job, and hope that something works? But I'll always be curious.

Regarding morality, I don't see how it comes into play! Be honest, be ethical. But your money source is just that -- a money source.

Do you think your employer would feel bad about hiring someone similar to you at the same time, so that after a year, they could fire the lower performing one? They wouldn't feel bad at all. At some businesses, this is an established procedure!

OP: Don't Feel Bad about working multiple jobs at once. It's not a marriage or a intimate relationship. There's no expectation of exclusivity. As long as you can do well at all your jobs at once, more power to you.

Put differently, I think active deception would be immoral. I can't believe it but I heard a story recently about foreign workers taking advantage of remote work/pandemic by running a "bait and switch". One person applies, gets the job, then someone different (and unqualified) actually shows up. _That's_ unethical.
No, it's a good analogy.

For example, it might make sense to restrict the availability of very high-calorie, low-nutrition foods like fast food, or tax them to raise their price and/or subsidize healthy food. It would make sense to educate people about nutrition and exercise and healthy eating.

This kind of thinking could easily hold for the gun control conversation. Let people buy guns if they want, but not the really unnecessarily dangerous ones, and only one at a time. An 18 year old walks into your gun shop and wants to buy two powerful rifles. Why? What do you want them for? Why do you need two? These are valid questions.

> Because we all exist in our own media echo chambers.

I disagree strongly. Some do, in the US it is typically right-wing though smaller left-wing media echo chambers exist. But mainstream US media is not an echo chamber.
Yes but you should compare vs peers.

You want to look at countries with high per capita ownership of firearms.

With the exception of uruguay, most comparable countries [1] place higher importance on religion vs USA [2]

That veing said, there are confounding factors. These surveys are not measuring spirituality, for example.

Then there is the elephant in the room with regards to gdp per capita. I've been told of an old chinese proverb that illustrates this point:

No food. One problem.
Much food. Many problems.

>the simple step of enacting a comprehensive gun ban?

As someone who studied high school in Mexico and the US and saw students get bullied in both, cultural issues at play make all the difference. Even the most vicious bullies had a sense of "oh crap, we've gone too far" in my Mexican high school. I saw the students defend the bullied kid at both schools, but in Mexico, both bullies and the rest of the students showed some compassion towards the bullied. And the bullied got to play soccer with the other students during recess. The bullied were never wholly ostracised. In contrast, when the other students defended the bullied in the US school, there was this feeling of "you should fend for yourself; nobody is going to help you. You're on your own." It's hard to explain, but that's what I felt being a spectator.

All this is just my n=1 experience, and I could be misreading things, but I'm convinced there's a cultural element that can explain the helplessness of bullied kids in the US school system.

k8s is actually a story of the triumph of interfaces. CoreOS may have stumbled on to it first, but k8s's real power is in the Operator (CRD + Controller) paradigm. Operators are essentially interfaces-as-YAML + implementations-as-connected-services.

So much of the successful simplification of k8s today is due to being able to move complexity out of tree and delegate functionality to external pieces. The sort of interface-interface that CRDs represent is doing a lot of heavy lifting in being able to simplify k8s.
Hard disagree, this reeks of HN bias in my opinion in that the problem is clearly how disproportionately awesome tech and tech companies are. The problem is lazy parents. Everything described is a reasonable defense for why the product might be addictive but not for why parents are somehow unable to bar their child from it nor does it explain why parents are unwilling to take these measures. The reality from what I've seen of other parents at my children's schools is that most come at technology with the boomer mentality that treats having to learn new things as some sort of arduous feat and not a basic expectation of being a responsible caretaker.
Sorry, no. Precisely nobody employed by a school district is getting involved in medication nor diagnosis for children. Nobody. Not even in Texas, and especially not a new grad with “assistant” in their title. Nurses might dispense prescriptions as prescribed but that is a firm end to the involvement in a child’s medical situation. Your wife’s master’s degree does not permit diagnosis of mental health and suggestion of medication or diagnosis in a counseling setting would be criminal, prosecutable behavior. The alleged people pushing her to do so would both know this and be just as culpable. And cui bono? You realize for your story to be true there has to be a pharmaceutical rep/third party paying a school district to perpetuate trivially prosecutable behavior for everyone involved, right?

In the United States this has not been controversial for decades and is common knowledge among educators. I’m sorry, either you gravely misunderstood the situation, or your story is complete fiction. I’m concerned that you don’t know what her title was but you know they wanted the kids on drugs and maybe if we didn’t do that some kids would still be alive. I’m also concerned your story just happens to be in Texas, of all the places.

I think it’s pretty much necessary in Rust to allow things to interop with low overhead, which is an explicit goal of most Rust code. That said, this article is not talking about interfaces as in Rust traits or Go interfaces necessarily but more the general concept. You can see that more evidently by the way that they point out that they don’t necessarily mean to imply that people should be writing entire plugin systems. What’s going on with Rust traits is much, much more granular than what they seem to be discussing.
