I tried rust on and off, since I do not need it for work I never had time to fully dive into it. The news about rust on the web just seems too good to be true, are there any "cons" against modern c++?

yes the cargo and tools etc are great, but I can set up a full c++ build env quickly too, not as good but enough for daily coding.
I had the opposite experience: There were itemized compensatory claims that hadn't even been specifically contested by the defense (e.g. preliminary medical assessment for injury), but they still gave nothing. They really seemed to just want to get out of there by lunch (they also made me foreman because I was the only one wearing a tie).
In the US, yeah, they are as far as I know.

I love pixel art, when I was a teen I drew a number of famous football (soccer) players in pixel art style: https://www.deviantart.com/iglobear/art/International-soccer....

They ended up in the gaame Sensational Soccer as unlockables. (Score three goals in a match and you get Zlatan). I was honoured.
My problem is I usually don’t have a story, my career has been boring and stagnant.

I had one of these questions tossed at me in an interview last year. Something a long the lines of a “time I faced a difficult technical challenge and how I managed to solve it”, but I didn’t have any.

Well… ok not exactly true. In my professional career I’ve done more sitting around staring at the screen while bureaucrats debates than I have working on challenging technical problems. Any true difficult problems I’ve faced professionally have been predominately organizational.

However I’ve been programming in general for a lot longer, and in recent years, despite finding a continuous lack of interest in programming, I am very interested in things that end with me writing code and that’s created some of the work I’m most proud of l. Ofc the interviewer wasn’t interested in any of that, as they wanted something from a position off my resume.
It’s the only Tweet in town.
Python for Matlab Development: Extend Matlab with 300K Modules from Python
I'd argue that Apple's big "innovation" was the capacitive touch screen, that made the UI so much more fluid and responsive. Palm almost shipped a webOS device with a resistive touch screen, but pivoted away after Rubenstein took the reigns. The Treo was a great device for its time, but suddenly felt old fashioned after the iPhone came out -- even though iOS was significantly less capable in its initial implementation (modal notifications, no copy/paste, no apps, etc...)

We still get plenty of take-out for lunch, in fact possibly more now than before.

We used to be better about cooking meals for the week and bringing them to work, right now we only sometimes eat last night's leftovers for lunch.

I've got more restaurants within 5-10 minute drive of my house than near my old office.

Coffee is a valid point though. We mostly make that at home now. But then again at the office I just got coffee from the Keurig in the break room, so not much difference there either. We still get Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts coffee about twice a week, usually on the weekends.

Starbucks, at least, seems to have completely recovered its dip in revenue in 2020 and was making more revenue than ever (until the slight dip this most recent quarter, due to the national economic downturn) and doesn't need any extra help:

Why is your 3rd order of preference something where most are unhappy? Are you saying your happiness is preferable over the unhappiness of most others or am I misunderstanding
It's not for everyone, it's dangerous and it should be done carefully and skillfully, but...

I cycle 300+ miles per week. 1 or 2 100mi rides a week. Descending at 40mph and checking the map, assuming it's already on the computer, is not a problem. If the road in front of you is empty, it's not hugely different than being in a car. Actually, in a car, you might be going 60 in the same place. Are you telling me you never check where to go going 60?

I'd say that doing 25mph in a peloton (or your friendly neighborhood group ride) when riding 8in from the person in front and checking your map is more dangerous than going 40 on an open road with plenty of room, but I can tell you, everyone checks their bike computers on group rides.

I'm curious to know if the people saying "oh laser focus on the road never look at your Garmin" are road cyclists having frequently ridden in fast group rides.

What "Monopolization"? Mastodon is not competing against either Facebook or Twitter. It is so remote that it has already failed after 6 years with the rate it is going and still unable to take even 10% of users from either of these platforms. The same is also true from the likes of Gab or 4chan which are also not 'competitors' or alternatives to Facebook or Twitter at this point.

It is really not early days for either of these 'alternatives'.
My experience with #1 was it actually really hard to get out of jury duty.

The lawyers and judge have seen all the tricks. The people who were able to get rejected had to hold pretty extreme opinions and hold to them under a lot of questioning. I saw many people break and admit they could be impartial.

Absolutely no cloud. All this stuff happens on-bike; it has to, because people frequently ride in places where there is no data service.

(Also, it's not clear how a cloud would help here. What we're talking about is allowing the groupset and the computer to share data in real time, to show on the head unit what gears are selected & etc. A cloud would just impose delay.)
While this may be true from the perspective of upper management, it is a very shitty way to treat the people who work for you, or would like to.
When you’re conditioned to think of yourself in a superior class of people, I can easily see how that mindset carries over to nonprofessional circumstances.

Also it’s not recruiting or hiring that I think is relevant. Those activities mostly impact non-employees. It’s in this drumbeat from leadership about prioritization of projects which reminds googlers not to waste their time on simple or small problems (or fixing bugs or maintaining a service) that any non-googler could do. It says “Remember that you’re better than they are.”
PHP - Aura, there’s not a ton of features being added these days but it doesn’t need them. Nice set of components, you just choose what you actually need.

JS - I still have a tiny bit of MooTools in production because I have found some more complex animations nearly impossible to port to pure css without resorting to horrible hacks. It really had an amazing animation “Fx” toolkit, but given it’s nature of prototype pollution, it design as essentially a patch to the language rather than a framework, you really should not use it these days.
I've been looking into Remix (https://remix.run/) to build javascript web project. I come from 10 years of Python/Django background and I want to avoid complexity of frameworks such as React particularly the headache of state management.

Remix seems to use an approach similar to Hotwire Turbo Frames and a syntax of React JSX. This allows creating composable pages and loading partials in a page while still being able to create React components.

The main use case for me is web3 where almost all libraries are in Javascript. And I want to have the least friction for this move. It basically encapsulates the server and client side of an HTTP request in a single component and handles the json parsing operations under the hood.

You can argue that it might not necessary and a template engine can come much handier. I believe NestJS handles that but if you need the React JSX and reusable components it can be quite practical.
Go now has generics. The performance of using them is hit or miss it seems.

Your opinion is valid, but I would say, if you aren't juicing for the best performance, you can adopt easier patterns to async. There are comments on this post detailing how to go about doing that. Or yea use another language if you want.

In the US (and many countries) we don’t actually have work contracts as full-time employees. Offer letters aren’t contracts, as an lawyer will remind us.

Tesla does have an exception process for remote work, though.
> They are a private company

I've been hearing this a lot lately, surprisingly from people who consider themselves to be politically left. I say surprisingly because historically, leftist ideology has been quick to solve problems with corporate behavior with regulations, whereas traditionally it's been the right pushing laissez-faire.

In any case, guys - private company doesn't mean your behaviors and policies aren't constrained. There are innumerable laws that regulate corporate behavior and these can be expanded at any time. Corporate behavior can be constrained without limitation if the public so chooses.

If you actually think that, go ahead and make your millions. Efficient markets are not that easy. If you knew you could make more ahead of time, it would already be priced in.

I live in Berlin, and this is standard here. There are 6 self checkout stations with a single exit. Once you are done scanning items and have paid, your receipt has a barcode you have to scan to exit. It always takes longer to scan your items than get through the gate, so I’ve never had to wait.
>Plus, your "motor" isn't an engine, it's not variable speed, it only has one "hardness" that it works at.

This is incorrect - electric motors draw more current when under load. I would suggest researching this or playing with some toy electric motors run from a battery through a current meter.
Tesla’s headcount grown 40% in 2021. That’s pretty unheard of for manufacturing sector. We all hear about mass layoff but massive hiring is rarely recognized. They have almost 100K employees now.

> That's exactly why. I prefer not to have a workflow which depends on proprietary software. What are you going to do if MS breaks your workflow at some point in the future and you've become dependent on it?

The comment you quoted is hyperbole. What is the actual worry or problem here? No other tool has the convenience of VS Code right now, so am I supposed to just use something else that has reduced functionality for me because of some nebulous worry? What's the specific worry? Because I don't see an actual one beside some strange commitment to FOSS software.

If Microsoft suddenly deletes VS Code or requires some inordinate amount of payment to keep using it, both unlikely scenarios, then I would just use something else. It's not like my world would suddenly end, my software would stop working, and I would forget how to write software. In such an unlikely case, the inconvenience would be both that VS Code goes away but then also that nothing else has such useful features.

Have a Manager Booth halfway between the two charging stations for checkins, in addition to video calls. Biobreaks (exercise, waste removal, nutrition ingestion) can happen during charging if the Teslas remain unmodified.

I just realized that the Tesla could eject the worker a couple miles before the charging station, calculating the workout and charge duration so that the employee would have to run at the correct rate to retrieve their car before it was done charging. The vehicle could self clean while empty on the way to the charging station.

I can't think of any downsides to this.

Exciting times for the future of work!
Our C-level compensation is transparent internally[0] and anchored to the market data, just like all other roles.

I will say that for anyone else thinking about doing this, there is a lot less market data available for those positions. We had to combine market data from multiple providers to get to a good baseline.

It's certainly prolix, but it's a frequent topic of discussion that Emacs contribution is hindered by the patch model and copyright assignment. This gets rid of both at once, and forge[1] is (was?) a fairly common term, though the term may be falling out of use due to the increased popularity of the model. Loosely translated, "everyone talks about putting Emacs on GitHub, and no one does it, so here it is."

I haven't touched it in a year or so, but I really enjoyed using EmberJS over the other frontend frameworks I've used. One reason is that it attempts to be a kitchen sink framework. In the React ecosystem you have to piece together your own framework, which is cool if you have the time to evaluate each piece and glue it on to your project. But Ember comes with pretty much everything you need -- routing, state management, testing, temolating, etc -- straight out of the box. And the update cycle was nice for an organization to follow for reliable maintenance.

Obviously, it comes with constraints. You can't really swap out parts/libraries if you find a better one to suit some need. And you can't really stray too far from the beaten path; you have to do things The Ember Way. But the consistency and organization made for a really nice developer experience.

Also, I found the community really friendly and welcoming, which has not been my experience in the wider JS world.
A lot of people here are jumping to conclusions based on what could simply be a bug. Why not wait 24hrs and see if this is actually some policy or just a mistake.
It is generally known in the artist circles I hang out in that Twitter’s algorithm loves to hide links to Patreon. They may also hide tweets that merely mention it, as well as other words crucial to the business of being an artist online like “commission”, which leads to creative misspellings like “Half off on c!miss!ons for my Petreon supporters this week!”.

(Twitter loves to hide off-site links in general. Leaving the site means you’re not scrolling down your timeline and potentially seeing ads any more!)
I use a calculator at work sometimes.

Say I'm on the phone with a customer, looking up a part for their lawnmower, and I need to apply markup on the dealer price I see on the screen. It's quicker for me to one handed type on the large physical calculator that's stored right beside the computer than to open a calculator on the computer and the computer one might even cover up the numbers I need to see on the screen.
No: I never use a calculator and never need to do calculations. If I do, I use Google Sheets or Google search.

Just doing a Google search with an equation is generally enough.
Can you provide any specific examples?
