Lowest common denominators work great though, arguably nearly every classic Visual Studio template is a lowest common denominator. Here's one WinForm the starts when you press run. And there's a dozen ways that the way that comes out of the box needs to be changed, but it works out of the box.

I think the .NET Core templates are really demonstrating a lack of understanding of why Visual Studio has thrived for this long.
Sure. It's nothing profound. More a matter of having simpler tastes back then.

The first example that comes to mind would be there are restaurants I enjoyed that were a once in a year treat kind of place at the time. Now I go to those sorts of places multiple times a month. At some point I realized I could afford to do so, and I enjoy those places more, so why not? And then at some point they shifted to being among the default options when we think to go out for dinner.

Bear in mind, pipe smokers use natural tobacco, without additives:

No. 1103, p.112 [1]

>Death rates for current pipe smokers were little if at all higher than for non-smokers, even with men smoking 10 pipefuls per day and with men who had smoked pipes for more than 30 years.

No. 1103, page 92 [1]

> Among the pipe smokers.... The US mortality ratios are 0.8 for non-inhalers and 1.0 for inhalers.

...which means pipe smokers who inhale live as long as nonsmokers, and pipe smokers that don’t inhale live longer than non-smokers.

Cancer rates for smokers skyrocketed after the 1950s chemical revolution. Previously, it was not so. What causes smokers to get cancer is the added carcinogens, not the tobacco. Granted, smoking anything is not healthy. Smoking causes emphysema and a host of other health issues. My only point is that what causes smokers to get lung cancer is obviously the added carcinogens.

The major point is that "mechanical sympathy" for how to operate software should be considered early in the development cycle. Fulfilling the business goals in operation should be a major design consideration that might warrant trade offs in other areas. Traditionally, this has been seen as more of an afterthought and DevOps solution to the problem is that involving the people who design and maintain software in its operation would automatically create incentives to make operational improvements because the people making decisions are the people feeling the consequences of those decisions.
How do the apple app clips work in this regard? Can they collect location info?
Ubiquity Dream Machine Pro - downside here is no hard drive redundancy but the all in one solution is nice, with remote access if you want (or you can disable it at the device level and roll your own).

A PoE switch. You can get a ubiquiti one if you want a fancy UI but any good managed switch is fine. Used switches are perfectly acceptable.

If you plan to use Wifi cameras, you'll need an Access Point (AP). Again, go for ubiquiti if you want the fancy UI but any decent AP will work.

Cameras. Here you will need to go with Ubiquiti brand to use their software/network video recorder (NVR).

Router (Dream Machine) -> PoE Switch -> AP and Cameras

You can probably do your own Cat6a runs for your PoE cameras, just know it's recommended to use passthrus and not ports for PoE (I still use ports, it still works fine, :shrug:). Otherwise hire someone or stick to Wifi cams.

You can upgrade to a dedicated NVR and do redundant drives which is desirable since HDDs fail quite a bit. Regardless do use surveillance rated drives (Purples or SkyHawks).

Optional addons: Put the cameras in a locked down VLAN for security. You can also optionally integrate with HomeAssistant to tell cams to not record when you are home/awake/etc.
There's a lot more to say there. For instance, many[0] have argued that the things Rawls places behind the veil are precisely the things that make us human, and ignoring them to make a procedural argument therefore begs the question: his conclusion (i.e. liberal democracy) is built-in to the premises.

Then there are purely distributive arguments: if everyone wants to pay a bunch of money to go see Lewis Hamilton race, thereby enriching Lewis and producing an unequal distribution of goods, can we reasonably say this situation is unjust?[1]

The literature on replies to Rawls is extremely rich, and Rawls himself went on to respond to critics and amend his views in 1993's Political Liberalism. The influence of his earlier work has been longer lived in the public mind than in his own.

Mux (YC W16) | SF, London, REMOTE (US, CAN, and UK) | Full-Time | Elixir, Golang, TypeScript/React | https://mux.com/jobs

Mux is how developers build online video.

With Mux Video, developers gain access to a powerful API for video streaming--think Stripe for Video. A dev doesn't need to have strong feelings about ffmpeg settings to get started; teams can focus on building your actual product instead of bolting together a video pipeline. And with Mux Data, developers realize incredible insights into how their videos perform from platform to platform, place to place, and user to user.

I'm Ed, and I'm a senior eng on the DevEx team here. This is a pretty good place to be, IMO. There is a real and concerted focus on not just competence but on the human side of things; one of the company's core values is "be human" and I thought it was marketing stuff 'til I joined and learned to my surprise that it is emphatically not. The onboarding experience is comprehensive and pleasant and it gets a lot of positive feedback from new folks, too.

Mux runs a multi-cloud environment using Kubernetes on AWS and GCP, with Elixir, Golang, and some NodeJS (some JS, mostly TypeScript), plus React and TypeScript for all the usual bells and whistles.

Mux is a good place to be and if video is your thing--or even it just sounds interesting and you'd like to explore it!--you should check us out. At the moment our hiring is limited to the US, Canada, and the UK, but the company is fully remote; I'm in Boston and I don't feel disconnected compared to the SF folks. Feel free to head on over to https://mux.com/jobs and check out our openings; we run a pretty standard interview-loop process and I don't feel like we waste candidates' time. (We've hired multiple people from HN Who's Hiring threads, too.) Even if you don't see an immediate spot that clicks with you, feel free to reach out regardless!

Yes, I have been continuing with SPARK2014, but it may now be time to ease back into Rust as this progresses. I have grown fond of SPARK2014/Ada syntax at this point. I still find Rust a bit more complex, but I just need to spend some more time with it (I think!).
(This is neither tax advice nor investment advice, or any other sort of financial or legal advice, ofc.) IIRC, RSU grants are taxed as income, but only at their value when they vest. So, gains or loss don't "matter", in the sense that they don't affect the amount you need withheld for taxes. I.e., you're taxed on the current value, which then becomes the cost basis; any further gains/loss is taxed as capital gains/loss.

In this particular example, I would have expected the employer to withhold the appropriate amount when vested. (The subsequent loss is, ofc., unfortunate, but it's no different than any other investment.)

Now, if their employer didn't withhold the appropriate amount, and they didn't know about it / didn't account for it, and combined with the rather exceptional circumstance of that stock (although… you're in crypto, and you're not accounting for volatility?) … yes, that is going to be a large tax bill. But the type of person here getting this level of a grant ($75k) can most likely cover it[1]. (Though, I do grant that this is exceptional — but that's also part of the point, too.)

AIUI, when this situation applied to me, the idea was that the employer knows that they're in CA, and should thus account for that & withhold appropriately.

[1]: assuming a 30% tax on the vest, that's a $225k bill. The un-withheld portion from your assumptions is $60k; there's still $150k in stock that could be liquidated to cover that bill, or, I presume the type of individual getting a $75k grant is more than likely going to have $60k in savings. If it's 0% withheld, that's $225k - $150k = $60k in savings one would need. We can, ofc., contrive a situation here where that person has $0 in the bank.

>I use Brainfuck-IDE for my personal projects.

>I don't even care if there is a web disclosure or if my source code gets leaked. The crooks won't understand it anyway

>and I work at a Brainfuck shop

I have a hard time believing this, aside from the keeping code safe from crooks (which surely some crooks stealing source code must recognize Brainfuck) what are the benefits of the language?

I mean every language has some benefits its users can point to? What are BrainFuck's benefits?)
I have also worked with the homeless.

Involuntary treatment, whether physically forced or coerced by denying certain benefits, almost never has successful outcomes. Why would it? Recovery is an active process that cannot be forced onto someone.

Absolutely false. It has worked 100% of the time I have seen it forced upon my clients (in every case because as their legal guardian I made that decision for them).

Every single one of my clients was happy that they were forced into treatment. EVERY SINGLE ONE. Because they didn't want to be mentally ill, but when their illness surfaced they couldn't make the decision to take their medications or go in for treatment. And the addicts abjectly refused to voluntarily get treatment because they were absolutely terrified of the effects of withdrawal, which in almost every case required hospital settings to manage.

But once they were sane/sober again, they were glad that I made the decision for them, because they absolutely preferred sanity and sobriety over the alternatives but couldn't get their on their own.

Housing first isn't a magical spell, it just works better, at a lower cost, with less authoritarianism than the alternatives.

This is false. LA County spends many multiples on its housing first strategy than it does when it simply commits someone to a mental hospital. Not surprisingly, mental hospitals are cheaper and more effective than housing first.

And critically, you ignore a very crucial thing about your housing first mantra: it only works for those individuals whose addictions or mental illnesses are mild enough that they can handle their own rehabilitation or medication, or in other words, a very small minority of the mentally ill and homeless in LA County.

It's very cavalier of you to suggest other people's human rights are "theoretical concerns".

When someone is so far gone that they're shitting themselves in the middle of a busy downtown street, their "human rights" are purely theoretical given the likelihood that they will die very shortly.

Thank goodness for people like me who ignore the theoretical human rights concerns so that these homeless/addicts can get the treatment they need and actually survive long enough, and be sober/sane enough, for their human rights to actually matter to them.
I always thought that biology delineates these organisms from their relationship?

They are still clearly seperate organisms, as a human does not require a particular bacterial cell, only that at least one is present in its proper place (the same as all the other cells in the human body). Thus, the "human organism" is an emergent organism from many cells, bacterial or not, acting and interacting non-deterministically. The bacterial cell by its existence allows for the existence of the larger organism.

A baby relies on adults to survive as well, but it is not biologically claimed that they are the same organism as the adults they rely on for survival.

We all require consumption of living and dead cells to survive as well. We do not claim organic-unification with these other organisms.

It’s not assuming the worst. The whole point of the veil is that you don’t know the circumstances of your birth and what traits you are blessed or cursed with.
The compiler won't build a project using multiple languages, it doesn't understand. For a long time, VB code and C# code were 100% interchangeable, and they of course, both compile down to IL. (Identical IL code, in theory, if literally the same code reflected in different languages.) In theory, you would imagine that you could include .cs and .vb files in a single project, and the compiler could link them, but alas, it is not possible.

There's no issues using a library written in one .NET language from another .NET language though, so if you can break the project up a bit more, you can work in multiple .NET languages.
sento.io | Backend Engineer/Fullstack/Frontend Engineer | Munich, Germany | ONSITE / REMOTE (Germany/close EU) | Full-time | https://sento.crew.work/jobs

sento builds technical infrastructure to automate exchange of structured B2B data such as orders, delivery notes and invoices to replace fax and traditional EDI connections. Almost all products we consume on a daily basis are digitally processed via such connections: from manufacturer over logistic service provider to retailer. We are a small, well funded team with a solid customer base - our goal is to automate 1bn supply chain messages by 2026. For this, we need to make our infra rock-solid, get data insights and scale customer onboardings. Team wise, we're looking to build a WhatsApp (small, tech focused core team working on infra products) rather than a Salesforce. We've recently raised a 9m€ seed round from Insight Partners in order to double down on building our product to scale serving current and new customers.

If that sounds interesting to you, please reach out to me (Nimar, CTO) at: nimar@sento.io and mention HN.

Finding smart, driven and nice(!!!) people is a priority to us which is why we move fast in the recruiting process :)

I've thought for a while that it should be curated. Don't show comments that aren't at least +2, nothing voted down or flagged, and preferably only comments no deeper than 2 levels from the root. Also only show a single comment from any thread, so quick threads don't overwhelm the feed.

The only downside I can think of, if it's really a downside, is that it would slow the feed down considerably. It seems like it does have the tendency to just provide low hanging fruit to trolls and snipers otherwise.
I no longer do so, but I was also an RSE (Senior Faculty Research Assistant) for 13 years with a large university, and loved it. Pay was not great great, but just fine all things considered. I respected the PIs I worked for and they respected me. I was constantly learning new, interesting scientific things as I'd work with new and evolving projects. I even got my name on papers even though I didn't even know I could be a co-author.

This seems like an attempted ad hominem but makes me suspect you might not know who Proudhon is.
I suspect its that - generally when you write a heap it needs to keep some metadata. if you have a multi-heap system (really handy), then its generally easier to host that metadata on another heap. sometimes you really want that, because the target heap might be specialized for different kinds of data. so I assume this is carefully constructing the heap state so that it can be used for its own metadata as its being constructed
they don't say exactly when and why they disabled the tracking except "in 2020", but in june 2020 when the original expose on their trackign appeared in the Financial Post, tims had no plans to disable the tracking, just to edit their privacy and other policy texts so that it wasn't outright them lying.

Over time, humans produce capital. Insofar as this capital is productively deployed, one should expect the total amount of capital stock to increase.

The stock market represents only a part of the total capital stock, as not all capital is owned by companies, and not all companies are public. But, on the whole, one should expect the stock market to rise over time so long as society is not dying.
