> The demand for the big diesel SUVs that get about 9 miles to a gallon has gone away, and people are trying to sell them for 20% of what they'd bring a year ago.

Any idea what they are replacing them with? Diesel's are pretty fuel-efficient after all, compared to petrol.
"...Here we show that the widespread use of RECs by companies with science-based targets has led to an inflated estimate of the effectiveness of mitigation efforts. When removing the emission reductions claimed through RECs, companies’ combined 2015–2019 scope 2 emission trajectories are no longer aligned with the 1.5 °C goal, and only barely with the well below 2 °C goal of the Paris Agreement. If this trend continues, 42% of committed scope 2 emission reductions will not result in real-world mitigation. ..."
Having used bootstrap 5 on project, I love the new utility classes. Find myself using them all the time, having been sceptical of that style of css I’m a compleat convert.

I think BS 5 is a nice middle ground between the older BS and Tailwind.
There’s a natural bias to prioritize near-term cost over long-term cost, which translates to there being a bias to just add yet another dependency. The advice is therefore to be aware of that bias and to actively work against it to counteract it. Of course, the involved trade-offs need to be considered to strike a good balance. If the stakeholders don’t enable you to strike such a balance, personally that would be an important reason to quit that situation, or to take care to not get into it in the first place.
About your PPS: I search from my own machine, from my work laptop, and from my phone. I also use different browsers. Maintaining a user script to “undo” crap results won’t work well in this scenario. Having those settings saved in the search engine itself is really nice!

Seems to me that he did / does want to buy Twitter (not because of free speech or whatever, but as a rich guy vanity project), but then the stock market crashed and now the price he agreed to is way too high so he's trying to weasel out of it or weasel the price down. Either way he's just being a weasel.
Comparing what is happening in Xinjiang to the Holocaust is Holocaust trivialization. They are not engaging in the organized murder of 11 million people. Not even close.

As a self-taught web developer, Tailwind has been a breeze to use, especially since I can play with default properties that already fit in nicely. Gives so much customizability.

However, I do find it laborious some times, since I have to define properties for each div every time, instead of just selecting things by CSS classes. Or I am doing this wrong.

My current job by talking to a friend/pre work college now college again.

But my search strategy changed over time.

1. My network was much smaller 10 years ago and I knew a lot less local companies.

Now I also Google around for companies I would like to work for. Like Google, GitHub, Netflix etc.

I also research what company is doing what I think is good for society like agriculture and automatiosation.

Currently I'm slightly stuck as my company allows remote work a d I want to buy a farm. So I'm not sure if I can jump continents (like USA) to work on bigger agriculture projects or if the farm and remote work will be more of my thing.

I also focus much more on the people I would work with and ask about the team etc.

But I also looked through ALL job postings in my city to get a better feeling what is out there. Probably I read 1000 job postings last time I was searching.

My Tipp: start with one two super unrealistic dream job companies than move to your top choice more realistic companies.

You don't want to get an offer from your 5th choice while still stuck in the hiring process for your dream job.

I would still quit a new job if the Dre job suddenly comes up.
My mind immediately went to uMatrix or uBlockOrigin. Just want to note that, so far as I can tell, this is not associated with the author (gorhill) of those other tools:

Color management is easy in SCSS, too, though. I just have a _colors.scss file and enforce that no color is ever used that isn't in that file.

If I'm working with a designer rather than designing my own UIs, that they have a default color palette isn't helpful, so what do I gain from Tailwind?

EDIT: Reading some other comments, I wonder if part of the reason I don't see the utility is that I use Vue, not React. It sounds like Tailwind solves a lot of the same problems that Vue+SCSS does.
Write HTML Right
Hi HN,

We're two programmers who have worked in core/platform engineering roles for most of our working lives. During that time, one of the main problems we've solved time and time again is to let people run their ad-hoc jobs and scripts on remote compute without hassle.

To solve this once and for everyone, we made Meadowrun, an open source tool that automates the tedious details of running Python code on cloud VMs. It runs in your AWS or Azure account, nothing else required.

No need to mess around with containers, SSH into remote machines, copy code across, set up images or look up instance types that sound like Starbucks orders ("t3.venti.oatmilk.latte") and what they cost.

All with the same experience as you'd have running on your laptop - just change the code or dependencies locally and run - meadowrun takes care of the rest.

We welcome any and all feedback!
I can see how this went sideways at a toxic company, but as both a manager and an individual contributor, sharing this metadata with your team _can_ be a healthy outlet, as long as:

- the manager and team lead actually take low happiness scores as a call to action to dig into what's going on and try to help address whatever is bringing on stress or sorrow

- the score is authentic--people feel safe enough to share grievances

- the score is only shared with the core team: HR and higher-ups don't see these (Lord knows what they'd do with it)

During stand-ups I'd ask "where's your thumb?" -- people would then either do thumbs-down or thumbs-up, but people quickly switched to analog--pointing their thumb somewhere between 6:30 and 11:30.

If people showed a low score, they could discuss it in the standup with the team, or follow-up in their one-on-one meeting that week, in private.

(I've done this at four companies--if the criteria can be met, it can really help avoid disconnects, unneeded stress, and esprit de corps).

How lawyer-y do you think Bandai Namco will be?
You could keep buying.

Your argument always assumes you pick a point in time and never consider new information or fundamental information. Such as, there were less computers doing things in the world yesterday than today and there'll be more tomorrow. Seems like a reasonable investment over the medium term.
And if you manager had been regularly checking in with how you are feeling then this would have been... worse? I suspect that, given a manager with as poor people skills as yours has, your manager initiating the contact and asking you instead of you going to your manager may have instead made all the difference.
You’re joking right? We’re on a forum where a good chunk of the people commenting have 6-figure salaries, some on the very high side of that. And some here have a lot more money than that.

The assumption of 15-20 errors per 1k line of code can't hold for the most used libraries. Incidents like the Log4j mess are memorable because they are rare. I bet people have been crawling all over similar logging libraries for other platforms now, looking for similar problems.

Good luck not adding dependencies. What's the alternative? Maybe some of the dependencies can be avoided without cutting functionality. But really only by two methods: Either there is already another dependency doing the same work, or you implement it yourself. In the latter case, chances are that the code will be less mature.

Washington state can't regulate how Microsoft hires people in Texas.

Microsoft Corp. isn't even a Washington legal entity. (EDIT: Never mind, I stand corrected [1]. In any case, the broader point stands. Delaware doesn't get to regulate how its entities hire outside Delaware. This is well-settled employment/interstate commerce law.)

Cosmic Conflict. You could pretend you were manning a turret on the Millennium Falcon.
You're right. You need quite strong leadership from upper management to accomplish this as middle management will tend to bias for increasing their own headcount now.

It's not even necessarily out of selfishness per se - more just that most managers are confident and believe that if they have more resources, that will inevitably translate into success for the company.

> If salary ranges can be bypassed, then they are not really useful

Sure they are. With common sense and fines for clear ongoing breaches it will do as planned.

There are always exceptions so if occasionally a salary is bypassed to match the candidate, higher or lower this is going to happen and be reasonable.

If 30%+ of candidates get paid less than the advertised role there is a clear case of bait and switch for authorities to show a court type deal.

I feel you need to approach this from altitude rather than individual cases.

You'd have to live very far away from any so-called "conservative car types" to believe this.

Currently, the conservative base is much more prone to thinking that electric cars are going to be _forced_ on them by a cabal who want to erase fossil fuels use from the earth.

Not saying they're correct, but your theory is just as baseless as theirs is.
That would be awesome.

I've found one other immediate and huge improvement to my mood was to remove all graphical elements from the news sites that I visit.
> And they even sell dead and irrecoverable (without soldering/hacking) on devices like the pinephone keyboard/battery.

This is such a shame too, because something that gives me a decent portable keyboard with Linux linked to mobile Internet, and proper Kernel mainline drivers meaning it's less likely to be abandoned after a year, was so enticing. But the same happened me - my P64 keyboard would connect but the battery wouldn't make pin contact with the phone, so charging the device was impossible without disassembly.

I understand it is low cost, but these rough edges impede enjoyment.

But, as an exception, I can say that the PineTime works wonderfully now. The PineBook Pro also is more or less functional with any Linux distro that targets it.
I really like utility classes and think Tailwind is really smart for many usecases, but the drawback with Tailwind is even if you componentize, your code is sprinkled with very specific visual classes like for shadows, border radius, etc. When companies want to refresh their look and feel, it's really annoying to change everything to remove now unwanted shadows, etc. In spite of it's age, I've found Bootstrap is better for this as it uses predefined component classes that can be restyled without rewriting the app or components (but also has some handy utility classes).

I know you can define your own component classes in TW, but then you've just recreated Bootstrap/Bulma/etc, but with no 3rd party components available. (Tailwind UI is just some limited copy paste code snippets last I looked.)
Not everybody thinks that maintaining your own code is eventually cheaper and safer than adding a mature dependency.

> Given this statement, the original title of this submission is even more baffling. If you recognize that data can be cached in clients, and that invalidating those caches is so hard that most systems -- including yours -- just completely abandon the goal of being able to do it correctly/reliably, then how can you claim your system makes it no longer a hard problem?

I see where you are coming from; and I don't disagree. I just want to clarify a few things I talked about.

It's not that actually doing the invalidation in the most complicated scenarios can't be done, but rather not worth it (a tradeoff). I tried to explain it here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31676102. But I think Marc did a much job at putting it concisely https://twitter.com/MarcJBrooker/status/1534944338341310470.

I know the tradeoff and I didn't consider the tradeoff specifically is what made cache invalidation hard (it's a distributed system challenge in general I thought). In in that context, I brought up TTL, as I think it makes a better tradeoff in the scenario. Again, cache invalidation can be done (in some cases with unbounded write/invalidation amplifications). It's just that IMO it's not worth it in that case.
Man, I've been in the crypto hole for two years straight. There's not a protocol that I haven't tried yet. And there's not a protocol that I now use outside of speculation.

Even ENS domain usage has been going up because of the speculative frenzy around valuable domain names (look up the race to register all 3-letter ENS names).

You can start off by naming three projects that you actually use regularly outside of speculative investments. Because for the life of me, I can't.
> They're much more likely to do that than to try to run an equivalently fault-tolerant and accessible-to-the-public SQL database themselves (and absolutely more likely to do even that than to trust some entity outside their legal jurisdiction to do that, barring outright state/federal mandates to do so).

No they aren't. They are already running public SQL databases (with limited query access) for managing property changes. And they already have a set of processes and employees to manage real estate transactions and taxes. If a blockchain startup wants to try to get a local government office to let them run it on a blockchain, they will need to prove that the taxes always settle, and that fraud can be reversed. These are both important parts of the system for the local government.

I suspect that there is a granule of use in the idea, and that's that you can farm off the infrastructure for your real-estate management onto third parties and ensure they give you your taxes and respect your authority. But that's not really what people think of when they say "blockchain" with dollar signs in their eyes. The incentives for the people running the infrastructure go out the window too, because the profits are modulated by the government, and it's way easier to just sell them software directly that only has to claim to be effective, and rarely has to deliver on it.
Respectfully to all the devs that poured their soul into this tech. Maybe physics and reality just make this an impossibility.

I've played this game on a great PC and my PS5 and it looks incredibly good. Almost fake how good it is.

I read this as confirmation that "hardware is hard". Ie most of these premade SBCs have issues of this sort. The exception being the raspberry pi's generally. The alternative is designing and laying out the PCB yourself and with DDR3/4, that's a huge job (my understanding at least I've never done it myself).
And a steady supply of parts.
I guess what I meant to say is that the way they’re using that funding is short sighted, ie the over hiring.
"of any kind" is not really true. My old large LCD TV had terrible input lag, but your brain eventually adjusts. I eventually replaced it with a quality large LCD TV because the lag really mattered when combining controller + online play + fast FPS. Otherwise, I was able to beat all the Dark Souls with what I'd say is input lag equivalent to that demo.
Yeah i don’t think this is true though people love to say it is true

Who's "investing" for only 6mo? My tech holdings are off over the last 6mo, sure (lots of stuff is) but I'm still up from 1996.
Ditto. We do this at my company today, but it's done as part of a culture of trust and openness. (Which culture – I might add – is one of the biggest reasons I'm still there.) And it doesn't displace 1:1s where my manager can talk in person about how I'm doing either. Why wouldn't my manager want to know if I'm happy at work? This seems like one of the most basic things your manager would want to know, and often enough to use a tool to automatically share this regularly.
Reinventing the wheel is also decidedly unfulfilling.
>It's technically possible to replace any blockchain with a database but where are you going to host it and who is the trusted central authority?

Who is hosting the blockchain? Who is the trusted authority over the maintenance of the protocol that implements the blockchain, that all miners must use if they want to participate in the system? Who is it you're trusting not to organize a malicious 51% attack against the system, when it has already happened several times to quite a few blockchains? It is a blatant falsehood that blockchains don't have any trusted authorities. They actually require trusted authorities to function. You're not trusting "emotionless code" as the code is well known to have these flaws even by the admission of its own designers; what you're actually trusting is some game theory laid out by programmers you trust, that says the miners won't do bad things because they're getting paid. But in several cases we've seen that they actually will do bad things! And that's not even considering all the other bad things like fraud and ransomware that happens on blockchains that the operators seemingly just throw their hands up and don't do anything about. They don't even consider that to be their problem.

I hate, hate, hate that this line is used so often in discussion of cryptocurrency. It makes no sense at all. In order to have any kind of real discussion around this, the crypto community needs to move past these thought-terminating cliches.

If you are looking to cache out of the stock market, that's quite different: you were worried about both inflation and the stock market falling after a bubble.

Most people have negligable liquid savings. Even if they wanted to, they lack the means to do what you did. Your behavior is anomalous and not representative of a broader macroeconomic trend.
I honestly think it's amazing for online games that don't work without an online service anyway.

EVE Online recently got a streaming version, and with how weird that game handles latency and command queueing it's a genuinely good option to ensure more fair play. It used to be that alliances specifically put members close to the datacenter in London is particular roles because they were more likely to lock in a single command frame. (This is not a reaction time issue, it's an "when within the 1s frames does your command arrive" issue.)

For games from Riot, I'd much prefer a streaming client. Better than installing their kernel mode anticheat.
