>There's enough background noise in the open office that I keep headphones on most of the time while I'm at my desk.

I still don't get how we as a species went "this is fine". The complete loss of audiovisual privacy is such an immense drain. I'll buy the "being close together works better" argument, but I still can't grasp how that offsets all the distractions in the modern office.
> work that requires board schematics also requires exceptional tooling, expertise, and time, and is therefore also quite expensive ($250-$425 was the number quoted upthread).

Stop thinking about the West, the rest of the world exists.

Where do you think your monitor goes when you throw it away because an $1 capacitor has blown? Not into a black hole. Our broken devices get shipped to other countries as e-waste.

There cost of labour is $5 and people want to repair that device and keep it going for 40 years.

If you want ti say 'i dont care about other countries', then you will have to recycle this shit domestically and pay real money for it's disposal- and then repairing will look different economically
> being in the office will be how you get noticed and advance in your career

That's a classic move. Businesses could offer a significant premium over remote roles to attract candidates, and could easy afford it if you take their in office productivity claims at face value, but that costs money, much easier to make handwavy, unfalsifiable (at least with the information you have as an employee) claims about how you will be rewarded someday in the future.

> In 1917, California passed a new hotel act that prevented the building of new hotels with small cubicle rooms.[0]

That's California, but it isn't the only place which has restricted SROs.

In some places they were explicitly legislated out of existence, others were squeezed out by the sum of various zoning and occupancy restrictions. Things like a requirement that a common kitchen adhere to commercial rather than residential standards, requiring a certain number of bathrooms per resident, and so on.

Also very much worth noting that in many cases, a woman's boarding house was presumed by law to be of ill repute, these laws having lasted into recent decades in places (I know this was still on the books in 1990s Chicago, for an example).

Rivian | Multiple Roles | ONSITE OR REMOTE | SF Bay Area (Palo Alto, CA) / Seattle, WA / Vancouver, BC | Full-Time | https://www.rivian.com

Our SW Infrastructure and DevOps teams, chartered with Firmware production and developer workflow improvement are hiring in Palo Alto, CA and Seattle, WA. Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract. Take a look at our current opening below!

Building forms in React is a pain in the ass and requires a lot of little details with strange edge cases.

I built a simple wrapper between two popular libraries, MUI and React Final Form called aptly mui-rff [1]. I've been maintaining this library for years now. It gets ~40k downloads a month off of NPM.

It still isn't perfect, some of the widgets have weird edgecase failures. It took a long time to get it to the point where it is now. The saving grace over time has been that I wrote a decent amount of unit tests right from the start. This has thankfully allowed me to upgrade the library safely over time but wow... just wow... I've spent so much time just fixing things that break because of random bits of code rot.

The fact that this is a ~10 page blog post and still doesn't cover all the edge cases says so much about what is wrong with React and forms. It shouldn't be this hard.

> "Extended Video Storage: You can store your Ring videos for up to 180 days. Video storage defaults to 30 days."

They NEVER delete ANY video, just hide your access away. I had some footages way back in 2019 that I could still access, so long as I have the video's uuid.

They also made several updates to reduce image quality (added fake motion blur). The goal I guess was to 'enhance' privacy of passer by but in reality it also means unless the person of interest stands still facing the camera, the footage is worthless as a CCTV device. It's jarring to see crystal clear videos from 2019 vs the blurry mess that is today. I replaced the front door one with an Eufy, it has its own problem but at least it's not a complete POS like the Ring products.
Yes, masking works in degrees. It's not hard to understand that.

Where schools break down, however, is during lunchtime. Kids - like adults - drop their masks to eat and drink (of course) and carry on as if there is something magical about holding a sandwich in front of their faces. After 30 minutes of much needed socializing, the masks go back on.

To be clear, at my both of my kids' schools in Seattle masks are 100% voluntary, yet there is a culture to wear them (even on the sidewalks while walking home from school - not joking).

It's not like the masked schools are 100% solid, no, so the tests are wobbly to say the least. Yet, my kids don't sit next to every student in the school during lunch, so their exposure is also teeny tiny. But we're anecdotally seeing cases rise at work and school here in Seattle over the past 3 weeks unlike any time I can remember during the past 2 years. Every area is different... It used to be, "Do you know anyone who has caught it?" And now I know several.

I sometimes think the UK has it right. People there have simply accepted it and deal. They have a big spike every 2 months but carry on with packed pubs, covid be damned.
I'm an armchair economist, hello! Are you one as well? Nice! We armchair economists should look out for each other, who else is going to do it ya know? ;-) I'd pour you some wine or any beverage of your choice if I'd see you in IRL.

In any case.

I disagree with your point. Companies that have solid fundamentals and fairly steady dividend payments do not feel like a ponzi at all. The deal is simple: you get a share, they give you a dividend. If management changes that, you can always sell the share.

Dividend payments is one of the best tools to keep a stock market (somewhat) honest.
Consumers in California pay around 1 penny per gallon of water. Farmers pay an average of $70 per "acre-foot" which is around 325000 gallons. So farmers get their water for roughly 30x cheaper than consumers. Agriculture is also around 80% of the water used in the state.

I'm frustrated when news articles ignore what, to me, are the most basic facts of the issue. Consumer water use is a small part of water consumption and already has huge surcharges to discourage excess water use. It seems like "efficiency theater" to add even more restrictions to watering your lawn in LA. It's like a distraction to make people argue about it and feel like they are suffering for water efficiency and feel like the government is doing something, when there's a simpler solution of "charge farmers more for water use" that would be more fair, more effective, and less disruptive to Californians overall.

Raft (https://goraft.tech/) | Sr. Engineers (Multiple Roles) | Full Time | Remote (US Based)

Raft partners with the DoD to work on three core things:

- Distributed Data Systems (Kafka, Flink, Airflow, Kubeflow)

- Platforms at Scale (K8s, Hardware in the loop, QEMU emulation, C++/Rust)

- Reactive App Dev (Scala, ReactJS, Python/Django)

Essentially it boils down to working on things that enable this: https://www.cnet.com/science/space/us-military-says-spacex-h...

We have multiple roles across the three disciplines. The company has grown 150% since last year. We offer meaningful equity, great work life balance (no on-call) + benefits, and hard problems to solve with wide impact.

Yeah, the industry is definitely moving to that. Admiral, probably the most known ad-blocker-blocker already successfully circumvents PiHole and other DNS blocking by being served by the same domain.

I also expect Google to double down on Chrome Manifest v3 limitations if ad-blocking keeps getting more popular. Or even using DNS-over-HTTPS as a default on Chrome if ISP blocking ever becomes a thing.

Intel Unveils Rialto Bridge: 2nd-Gen Xe-HPC Accelerator to Succeed Ponte Vecchio
this is a symptom of the short-termism in equity markets that we get from abstracting ownership away from involvement. it's a direct consequence that such markets become centers of gambling rather than long-term interest, because otherwise your focus would be on growing your main source of equity, rather than spraying and praying.

it's also why we should be wary of anyone spouting "markets provide liquidity" dogmatically. equity markets do provide liquidity, but only a trickle is needed for a well-functioning market, but the gamblers (traders, brokers, etc.) propel a tsunami of liquidity[0], because that's what benefits the gambling mechanics. we should leave gambling to casinos and let equity markets be about involved ownership. i'd made a related point yesterday about each person having one appreciating asset to nuture is great, but not having many: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31573993 .

[0]: a similar phenomenon occurs in real estate, where only a trickle is needed, but brokers/agents try to drive sales past the natural equilibrium for their own benefit, and not the market's.

> I'd bet that being in the office will be how you get noticed and advance in your career

I think this is true, somewhat. But I also will say that as remote work has become more commonplace, it is less true. In my mind, it's mostly about social norms, more than some universal absolute. It used to be the word on the street that if you wanted to get ahead at any FAANG you had to move to the Bay, rather than working in NYC, Austin, et al. That's hasn't been true for awhile, and with remote work now commonplace it's no longer true you need to be in the office to get ahead.

I've been perm remote for quite some time, and in that time I've shifted from Eng to PM, and have moved ahead in my career quite significantly. A lot of that is due to remote becoming more socially acceptable over time, and part of that is that I learned remote skills in how to appropriately communicate my successes so others know about them without needing to hear about it at the watercooler.

Different work environments require different processes for self-promotion to be noticed, but it's still definitely possible while remote, and it becomes more possible the more remote work becomes the norm rather than the exception. I see no reason that we require RTO for people to advance their careers other than butt-seatism managers who mostly should just retire at this point.
It's the most expensive county in this state (due to being outside the biggest city, but close to it, and being a lush, tree-filled area). And home prices are only one factor of a HCOLA area. But by saving up to put a down payment, and getting good interest rates (3.75% initially, refinanced to 2.99%) the overall payment is quite reasonable.

Compared to the absolute most expensive places in the country (San Fran/NYC) it is not a "high" cost-of-living, but compared to much of the rest of the country it is. Median home price in the U.S. in 2016 was $225k or so, and our home was $390k. (Sales and value estimates now are approaching $600k for the same comparable homes in this area.)

If you want to make big advances in your career and/or compensation, getting a new job will get you there faster. Advancing within a company is almost always a very slow process with minimal rewards - you get to move to a new salary band, but that doesn't result in a big jump in salary.
I can understand that. In which case the popularization is likely better than the original because it spends proportionately more on the solid argument - that QWERTY didn't win just because it was first - than on the wrong one.

The truth is that there are network effects. But they are more transient than people give them credit for. And they mostly give rise to path dependence when things move fast, or you wind up at somewhere good enough that there is no compelling argument for an alternative.

In the case of technology, things move fast and don't STOP moving fast. And therefore it is possible to ride the tiger from network effects to path dependence, to monopoly. Microsoft's historical success was based on their explicit understanding of this. And exhibit A demonstrating that they did explicitly understand this is http://gunkies.org/wiki/Gordon_Letwin_OS/2_usenet_post. And I, for one, am on the opinion that without the infamous 2003 EU consent decree (you know, the one with big enough teeth that consent decrees were not simply a cost of doing business), Microsoft would still be on top.

So, despite appreciating what they have to say on the history of keyboards, we're likely in broader agreement. Particularly about the behavior of Microsoft in the 1990s.

Studies like this will only be compounded by those attempting to quantify how harmful removing an entire nation's children from school for almost 2 years, to socially isolate them from their community while mongering fear of other people fared against their psychological well being. How many hacker news users were aggressively throwing shade at anyone who deign so much as offer an iota of dissent against the status quo's reaction to mandates? Funny how a dubious analog to shoving your head in the sand became a conduit of intolerance for people with beliefs that differ from our own. I was shocked how quickly everyone glommed onto a narrative so easily appropriated by special groups with direct conflicts of economic interests, while aggressively shaming anyone who stepped out of line to point that out or ask whether one policy or another was effective, or harmful. I have read about a lot of dumb things humanity has done throughout history, but our reaction to covid is probably the dumbest I'm likely to see in my lifetime. More studies like this to come, rest assured.
A quick Google Maps search shows some multi lane roads. Do you have a good way for me to learn more?
I really don't know what you're talking about. How are a few hundred Harvard graduates going to meaningfully 'suppress wages' in the UK? If anything, they'll actually increase demand for goods and services in the UK - which is going to push up wages.

I'm willing to entertain the argument that thousands of low-skilled migrants out compete indigenous low-skilled labour and push down wages. But that obviously doesn't apply in this context.

If anything, US DE and JP workers would actually need higher salaries to justify their coming to, and staying in, the UK.

I don't mind whether or not people 'share my enthusiasm'.
> They have a big spike every 2 months but carry on with packed pubs, covid be damned.

And with that come consequences. It’s all trade offs.

Argo AI | Pittsburgh, PA and Palo Alto, CA and Munich, DE, and Dearborn, MI and Pasadena, CA and Miami, Fl and Austin, TX and San Diego, CA and Washington, D.C. or Remote | Software Engineers, Machine Learning Engineers, computer vision people of all stripes and levels, wide variety of other roles | https://argo.ai

Hi, I'm Michael - I run Perception for Argo AI, a major autonomous vehicle company backed by Ford and Volkswagen. I'm hiring talented computer vision folks of all levels, and Argo AI is hiring broadly across many roles. You might be surprised at all the types of expertise we need - not only machine learning engineers and scientists, but high performance programming and software optimization experts, geometric computer vision specialists, and much more. We just showed our driverless testing in Miami and Austin (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kNPezEsybg)!

We are building level 4 autonomous vehicles (of multiple types) for cities, and we have built a very sophisticated set of systems. Some of the things that make Argo unique are our multiple autonomous platforms, our custom LiDAR (>400m range!), and our presence both across the United States and in Germany. And of course, the people - I came to Argo from Google, and this is the best job I've ever had. Everyone is smart, focused, and rowing in the same direction. I also really value the partnerships we have with academia, like the Argo AI Center for Autonomous Vehicle Research at Carnegie Mellon - the close partnerships we have with researchers from CMU, Georgia Tech, TUM, and more allow us to explore the forefront of technology while also keeping our eye on the ball of building products.

Speaking of commercialization, we have pilots with Lyft (https://www.lyft.com/blog/posts/lyft-ford-and-argo-chart-a-p...) and Walmart (https://techcrunch.com/2021/09/15/walmart-to-launch-autonomo...) - we are growing fast and it's an exciting time to join.

My roles for computer vision: https://www.argo.ai/careers/open-positions/?gh_jid=3228772 Open Positions: https://www.argo.ai/careers/#open-positions

If you're experienced and think you might be a good fit in the Perception org, but can't find a job listing above that feels right, feel free also to email me directly at schoenberg@argo.ai - I would be happy to take a look at a CV/resume and put you in touch with our recruiting team. I'm also hiring for a few technical lead manager roles, so if you're a specialist in both deep learning and LiDAR, I'd love to talk to you (or apply to this role: https://www.argo.ai/careers/open-positions/?gh_jid=3082712).

I wonder how much of that is affected by older smokers being much more vulnerable to Covid? Over 1,000,000 Americans have died to Covid in the last few years and that number is heavily skewed towards older people and smokers.
