...until feature parity. Soon Apple/Google will be able to integrate with those features too. Aside from "dead-zones", I'm sure they will eventually have more integrations with car interfaces.

Even so, both Google and Apple seem to predict your location when signal drops. Somehow I still get decent navigation when I am in the middle of nowhere Iowa and have no cell service. Obviously the maps are cached, but somehow it knows I'm still moving. Must be accelerometer and gyroscope? IDK

I'd really like dash HUD integration with CarPlay.
I feel like the unicorn where I both enjoyed my colleagues in the office and had a lot of fun. Was it _more_ productive? Hard to say but I could easily put on my headphones and work. The lack of visual privacy I realize but I would never say it hindered my work. Then again nobody was on me if I went on reddit for a bit because the tests are running.

I think a bunch of people on hacker news are discounting how much more you can learn in an office with helpful colleagues. When I was a new developer I absorbed so much information in the office just from being able to ask people questions in person. Just from people overhearing a conversation I was having and saying "I think you probably want to do it like X instead" and explaining! In my opinion many people are discounting the development of newer engineers. I'm sure it can happen remotely but remote work requires more intentional coordination and that's one area that I doubt it's happening more effectively than in an office (on the whole). I'm not saying in person meetings are awesome but comparatively, interacting with other people is easier and more enjoyable as opposed to having the same meeting digitally.

> The vast majority of my peers prefer him to any other billionaire and why wouldn't they? Do you prefer the Zuckerbergs and Bezos' that do almost nothing but chase profit?

All billionaires suck, but Musk sucks the least so get on the fanboi bandwagon?

Please.

None of these tech billionaires deserve to be treated as anything but the robber barons they are.

Musk? He's at best an unhinged narcissist. And that's being kind. The fact that he's bought into his own fan fiction and thinks of himself as a noble futurist doesn't matter much to his overworked employees, the people Musk has defamed on Twitter, or the shareholders he's defrauded through blatant market manipulation.
Right, that is the other side of the inflation equation that is often overlooked; more money chasing less goods.
So true! I’ve met several companies living this exact scenario on billing: trying to balance building vs buying. None being acceptable solutions.
The first one dedicates so much of your developers on a project that a actually never ends. Which is obviously not an viable option.
The second is so expensive you end-up considering the first… and most of the time you still have to fit a circle in a square.

Open source would definitely solve this!

Reading your comments, I think you have super human level of energy. Not to take anything away from your experience, but that isn't much help to the OP who is likely much lower energy. I observe the same in myself. Each year that I age up, the gap in energy between myself and peers grows larger. They keep getting fatter, slower, lazier, less innovative/intelligent. Me: Yes, a bit, but far slower than others around me. The last five years has been striking -- the distance. More and more people ask me: "How do you do it?" Or "When will you slow down?". For years, I thought something was wrong with me and my brain. Now, I understand the gap better. To be clear: This does not mean that I am _absolutely_ smarter than my peers (or a better worker!) -- I am only talking about "energy levels". Ask yourself: How does Elon Musk work 80/90/100 hours per week in his early 50s? Probably a lot cocaine and caffeine. Plus, he has super human level of energy. When I listen to Cal Newport's style of working, I think: "Oh, hey, that's me!" Of course, I'm not a university professor and successful author of many best sellers. But the energy level is similar.
yeah this is a major blocker for me, not the money (Although it would help if they pay more) but the social credit required AND the competition.

all in all I am not fond of the academia industry and the hierarchy.

A hidden factor I don't think you hit on in your analysis was "- 30k (401k, HSA)". This right here is a huge difference. Sad as it might be, the numbers on what average people sock away in 401Ks is not good.

So it's another example of a choice people make. As with most of these situations there's a right answer. In this case if one can one should choose to invest in their 401Ks and such. But it's still a factor of not having an apples to apples comparison in these conversations between low income and high income people living paycheck to paycheck.
Right, but that's a problem for my BTC-USDT perpetuals. For housing, political force can be brought to bear. After all, you don't get margin called on a house. It's a non-recourse loan usually. So if you can't pay, you walk away and the bank forecloses. And usually, you can pay, it's just a question of it being worth it. And it's worth it because you can force politicians to make it worth it by taxing society to backstop your property value.

C# had this issue for a long time as well. Any desktop app support outside of Windows is abysmal.

These languages don’t really bring anything groundbreaking to the table anyway. They just coat them in syntax sugar so you’ll stay hooked on their platform.

It’s much more sensible to write web apps and have them run in Electron or I guess alternatives, but you didn’t need me to say that.
Convictional | https://convictional.com | Multiple Roles | Full-time | REMOTE (US & Canada)

No, a corporation is a specific type of business arrangement. For example, you can have a limited liability company (LLC) that is wholly owned by an individual.
Taxes on land dont have economic incidence on rents.

The reasoning is that land's profit stems from its location and the land owner doesn't have any bargaining power - his only choice is to not rent the land and absorb the loss of all value.

Its not the same with property taxes because builders/buyers can choose not to build, so there is some distortion.
This will really go out of hand when WW3 starts and all the intelligence gathering satellites will become targets. Not that it's the most important thing in a global war, but we might also successfully block all exit paths from this planet with large amounts of very fast and deadly debris.
To put it simply, anything that increases efficiency most likely increases the desire to scale. There is a ton of demand because everyone wants to scale to billions of users. Kubernetes is one way to get there until the next thing comes along.

Also, there is more demand than supply. Everyone wants to do Kubernetes and DevOps pipelines but the amount of folks experienced in those fields is small compared with demand.

It requires knowledge in many domains because it abstracts the entire data center. So you can’t just take a mid level sysadmin or developer and expect them to jump right in.

No. Options also provide a fundamental service - insurance. So, in the case where the option buyer is paying for insurance, sellers add value by underwriting the risk that is being insured. Hence, both the buyer and the seller win - the buyer gets insurance, the seller gets cash.

> Fundamentally, the argument seems to come down to "you don't have a record of what you once asked the API server to do", and that's fair enough - you don't. But that has nothing to do with imperative or declarative models.

You do actually have this record. First of all, because k8s has an audit log, and secondly because deployments maintain a revision history (so you can always rollback--kubectl even supports this via `kubectl rollback undo`).
>Want to get on the interesting project, which lets you put the big accomplishment on your resume?

Smart managers pick the best people if the project is important, they certainly won't pick a mediocre developer just because he shows up in the office every day. Attendance is no replacement for hard work and aptitude, unless you are in high school.

>It always helps to be visible

It does, but filling a seat in a cube isn't the best way. The best way is to solve business problems.

>It's a notably programmer-since-2012 phenomenon to assume that leaping from place to place will result in a monotonic increase in your salary and/or prestige forever and ever.

I don't think anyone thinks it's forever. There's certainly a cap to how much you can earn as a software developer/engineer/architect/x working for someone. There are exceptions where you can negotiate some equity or percentage of revenue, but you almost certainly can't do that outside the initial offer phase. In other words, you won't get it at the company where you are already employed; the negotiation window is most likely closed forever.

I doubled my salary 2x from 1998-2001. Then the dot bomb happened, but it's not a new phenomenon. Companies that hire for x amount only give y% when giving out raises. It's pretty close to inflation. The trick to having a larger salary is to get hired with a larger salary, full stop.

I wish it wasn't that way, I usually like staying at a company for a while, but as long as traditional raises are 2-5%, that's what the hiring market wants.
Oh sweet, thanks bpicolo, I hadn't thought about that! I'll check that out.
I'd say its more sinister than that. It really is signaling a shift from creating to wealth extraction.

The no free sods is just a rules for thee but not for me situation. Do you think the exec floor with the said CFO no longer has free soda? Of course not. The execs have free soda, coffee, donuts, meals, open bar, beer, private jet reservations, wine and all kinds of other extravagances.

yes, you're right. i misread the title and didn't originally read the article because it was behind a paywall, but just saw the archive link and read through it now.

i think a similar dynamic happens in PE though, which is a private market, but a very large one, so not like the illiquid, opaque private markets we'd otherwise imagine. PE firms try to inflate valuations and get out while leaving others holding the bag (i.e., take the inflated risks and therefore take the eventual losses).
The load you are going on about is from agriculture - over 80%. If addressed, replacing outdated irrigation practices and correcting lack of maintenance/loss through distribution systems would solve this "crisis".
