I dunno.

I have basically this working with my todo.txt file between my laptop and phone, and it's incredibly low-maintenance. Most CMSes mean running a complex app, a full DB engine, and having to stay on top of security updates for all that. Heaven help you if you run a CMS with a bunch of third-party extensions.

For my static sites I have SSH and nginx. Nothing else needed.

Static isn't always the answer, but where it does fit it's hard to beat for simplicity and efficiency.

I often find kpi is implemented with the messaging that it is to help managers understand the staff but once implemented this messaging is quickly replaced with the manager bitching that his staff have not met their happiness quota.
Because some of the domains mixed into the bunch, which were contacted independently from the CDN at times, are known tracking domains.

Even disregarding this fact, Douyin has 700 million annual users and this issue does not exist with Tiktok which uses the same codebase. You are telling me this is not intentional but an accident? With a company as large and skilled as Bytedance?

This is a new security feature, which few computers have, so the fact that it does not work obviously has little practical importance. At worst it makes the new computers with this feature only as secure as any old computer.

Nevertheless, the article is very important, because it shows that this supposedly security-improving feature has been implemented in a way that makes it useless (like it has also happened with some Intel security features, e.g. Software Guard Extensions).

Everybody must become aware that this "pointer authentication" feature is currently unreliable, so it must not be used, and the designers of future CPUs must take care to not repeat these mistakes.
Actually not true. Many Ukrainian fighter pilots have received training in the US, where they flew F-16:s. (That is, before the current phase of the conflict.)

The hard part is actually the maintenance crews. A modern fighter plane requires constant intensive mainentance, they generally spend much more time being worked on than they spend actually in the air. And this maintenance work requires a lot of specific skills that don't necessarily translate well or at all between aircraft types.

Cool. What percent of market cap and trading volume do they sum to?
> contrary to the wisdom of the crypto industry

Heh.
I think we're in agreement here but I want to be clear.

I'm talking about blockchain explorers. Use of the actual networks and technology. Trading on crypto exchanges does not utilize blockchain in any fashion.

Given that this is HN I would think the focus would lean towards the underlying technology. That said one of the things I appreciate about HN is the wealth of knowledge and conversation about things other than technology.

I suppose there's a valid debate to be had in terms of what constitutes "use" but my focus and emphasis on actual network activity as seen in blockchain explorers refers to use of the network/technology/blockchain for some purpose. I don't care what that use/purpose is as long as it actually uses the technology (which is on network and reflected in explorers).

As we both acknowledge, blockchain explorers representing the reality of blockchain network activity provide an abysmal view of the adoption of that technology relative to historical technology platforms 13 years after release.
No need to spend hours reading a poorly written manual first
We did that in Q4 2021/Q1 2022 amongst my friend group. Literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in spending among us in land, tools, etc. Stock market looked high, don't want to stay in the dollar.

It's not a complex economic environment out there. You can look at a very small set of numbers and get the picture; buffet-index (total market value to GDP) and GDP growth in dollar terms says the market is high. CPI, M1 money supply, and debt-to-GPD says the dollar will reduce in value. So where else you going to park your money? If there's machines you can use, that was a good time. Most people don't need machines so it's all about houses and land and anything not showing as much peak. Not academic; critical to maintaining the value a person has put into savings from all that labor.
> does that not make it roughly equivalent to a coin flip?

No.

Intuition: predicting the outcome of a coin flip correctly 50% of the time is unimpressive, but predicting the outcome of a D20 dice roll correctly 50% of the time is incredibly impressive.

Very true, but it can be difficult to manage in team environment.

It's frustrating when a "this is my life" person relies on a "this is my job" person and the latter is too busy planning their next kayak trip to carry their pack. It would be the equivalent of the former constantly poking holes in the latter's kayak.

Makes a lot of sense if you're space constrained, could see yourself getting space constrained in the future, or value open space. Even then, though, if you needed the space for something else, you could recoup all of the real estate cost and some of the cost of the treadmill by selling it.

The browser has one of the most extensive standard libraries out there.
Yeah I think you're going places I don't care to follow. We were talking about a specific program, and I made the argument that the behavior of the program was more sharply determined by the incentive structure in which it was written. But you're kind of doubling down into a more general rant about Haskell that is actually totally divorced from the failure mode of the Haskell program in question.

I used to use Haskell too and I stopped using it for $reasons. Nothing to do with the prelude or its string type though. More about the nature of the language and paradigm itself.
Good points. If Elon took over, would he actually be able to fire the board though? I thought that the point of the board is to keep the CEO accountable, but maybe there are other tricks he can play.

Or $170K is the most they're willing to offer for a particular position. And, if someone wants significantly more, they'll just pass. Companies will find ways to make exceptions for someone they really want--including creating a new position for them. But companies won't always salary match.
You parsed it just fine.
Just like books, CDs or whatever, publishers don't like that. Hence you get frequent "revisions" of textbooks, online registration codes etc..

>The key there is the person's password manager as most of the things mentioned there are online

Are you sure your passwords/session data can't be exfiltrated by other means, e.g. your .mozilla/.chromium?

>My password manager requires my yubikey to be present, it's pincode to be entered and it to be touched for every use (to avoid remote hijacking)

Going by KeepassXC docs, the database is encrypted with an HMAC challenge response, changing only on DB save. But if you have the ability to copy the database file and the HMAC response in the same point of time as this malware does, the yubikey part is useless. What password manager are you using?

The interesting thing is that Google could do this easily if they wanted to, but for some reason they don't. After all, if you can do it as an end user and in a low enough amount of time that it is worth it for you then surely Google can do it, they get to amortize that time across many more users.
I think it's helpful to keep in mind that Python is general purpose and used in many domains in addition to data analysis (no matter which side of the walrus operator you are on)

I think that's part of the expectations out of "ask HN". I don't know that the same effect happens outside of Ask HN.
I think the main appeal is its ability to transpile to different languages, so that you can use whitespace insensitiveness + comments in other languages where those features are not supported.
I have applied directly on company websites for my last three jobs (two BigTech cos and a stint in the public sector). Before that, I used recruiters who reached out on LinkedIn, which was honestly a lot easier but didn't get me particularly high compensation.
Yes fuck Pinterest.
As a Devops engineer who spends all day provisioning infra with IaC, I always wonder why developers intentionally avoid concepts like "security groups and VPCs". They concepts are actually really simple and sure as shit are simpler than learning nearly any dev fundamentals. Sometimes I get concerned that one day developers will figure out how simple our job is compared to actual programming, but I enjoy the perpetuation of the mystique of basic infra concepts in the meantime for the sake of my employment.
I doubt they can do it with Qubes OS though.
Some mobile networks are pretty low latency compared to old copper ones. LTE here has 14ms to one of my servers, while the wired connection has 22ms. Most of this is probably owed to more modern hardware.

Small amounts of jitter could be compensated for by adding some artificial latency, ad-hoc, when a connection with jitter is detected.

That's definitely frustrating feedback. Even so, I would consider asking for specifics about those opportunities were, potentially even reaching out to individual interviewer engineers who are more likely to share as opposed to only the recruiter or HR rep.

Batteries are also chemical storage, but I guess you mean synthetic fuels. Their cheap tankage, easy transportability, and ready sale value forgive a great deal of inefficiency. If not drawn down every night, efficiency hardly matters. Overnight storage wants efficiency and unlimited cycles. But transmission lines will probably end up preferred where available.

Buoyancy storage, where deep water is ready to hand, and mineshaft storage, where you have one, will be very, very cheap and efficient. Transmission lines mean such conveniences need not be especially nearby. But Europe is absolutely perforated with mineshafts.

Besides smoothing, there is very little use for storage yet, because we haven't got enough to charge it from. Charging storage from NG turbines would be worse than silly. So, we build out generating capacity first, then storage.
Why do these websites always look like some sort of self-help cult, why can't they just propose some methodology and sell a book with more details?
I think issue with SIP is that it is and was driven by the industry. And I wouldn't call it exactly simple or easy protocol to follow and implemented. Thus many alternatives or self-made solutions are more likely to be chosen. It does a lot, but at the same time it is increasingly complex protocol. At least compared to others.

woodworking ~= toy/side software projects

carpentry ~= software engineering (within an organization)

I think woodworking is attractive to software engineers because its akin to building side/toy software projects. Autonomy, building from scratch, requirements/AC's self-defined etc.

Software engineering professionally is more like carpentry/trades. Carpenters work in teams, work on one specific part of a house and may not touch other parts of the house, do not design but mainly implement. You might even liken SWEs to tradesmen generally in that there can be a high degree of specialization: plumbers, electricians, finish carpenters, tilers etc being the devOps, secOps, backend, frontend etc.

Woodworking != carpentry

Again, a big part of the draw to woodworking for SWE is the same as the draw for a software side/toy project: it's more fun and fulfilling to build something in it's entirety, from scratch, and by yourself (especially if you do the opposite in your day job).

Also, be wary of quitting your job to become a woodworker. Woodworking professionally does not necessarily resemble what is posted in this article or linked to. Many woodworkers start out as carpenters and learn on the job or as a side hustle to carpentry. Many woodworkers do not design the pieces they make/install. Many parts of the piece you are making could be prefab. The amount of time you'll be able to spend manually sharpening your hand tools will be limited. Grass is always greener: physical work is rewarding, but anyone who has done carpentry and/or woodworking their whole life will have infirmities, ailments, and maybe even disabilities caused by their career. There is woodworking fantasy and their is woodworking reality.

And also, tastes have changed and most don't care to pay for quality woodwork. Odds are the wealthy homeowner is going to take your beautiful mahogany built-ins and paint them purple because that's what the interior designer asked for. And that's if your lucky. Most folks don't buy custom built furniture, they buy IKEA. By all means take up woodworking and quit you SWE job, but assume that you will very quickly dip into the fortune you amassed as a SWE. I think there should be more craft in this world, so I wouldn't discourage it outright -- but make sure you have the material means to sustain this woodworking fantasy.

"Precision" is the right word, that's the probability that you identified a recession but there wasn't a recession.

You can get very high accuracy (more like 95%) by predicting that there will not be a recession because recessions are less common than expansions.

An indicator that flashes occasionally but it even if it wrong half of the time (you do the coin flip after the warning) it is giving useful information about an unusual event.
The original poster might a point, at least from a certain point of view. The topics on HN are programming topics but they're almost all corporate / enterprise programming topics. Contrast that with the mythos of hackers from the pre-2000s era and their romanticized tales of nerd badassery in pushing hardware and software to its limits and their rebelliousness against what the "suits" (corporate programmers, a.k.a. us) say they're supposed to be able to do and HN would seem to have very little to do with hacking and its spirit of curiosity.

Same. People touted semantic CSS as the future for ages, and that's what I was taught in my first role out of college. Parts of that made sense (e.g. de-noising html), so I was against tailwind, but it's has quickly become one of my favorite tools.

I am pretty conservative in terms of "use boring tech", because I see so much reinventing of the wheel and making the same mistakes, but Tailwind is not in that camp!

I was never happy with any of the CSS in JS solutions in React land – all of them felt tedious or boilerplate-heavy compared to Vue's CSS model, which is excellent. Writing css and getting component scoping for free are great.

But with tailwind I've minimized usage of Vue CSS too. I pull it in occasionally when I need specific overrides of the tailwind component lib I'm using, but other than that I don't even need to touch css.
This is what tailwind does already. Colors are defined as design tokens in a config file:

https://tailwindcss.com/docs/customizing-colors#color-object...

Utility CSS is by far my favorite way to write CSS, especially in teams. It allows you to extract out multiple classnames that encapsulate all styles into a single classname.

Why would you use Sass when plain CSS does the job better? Tailwind is just normal CSS, all the build steps are ways of making your stylesheets more efficient and removing dead code but it's all still CSS no preprocessor necessary.
