Naively, yes. But if they gave you the $X to spend however you want, you'd have to pay income taxes out of it and then sales taxes to buy for yourself. When the workplace does it, they don't -- and it's an expense for them! Plus, they get the bulk price.

Yes, it is a community standard that exists to work around a UX issue. I would agree that an edit history and an indicator that edits have been made would probably be an improvement.

That said, in the past when HN seemed to be doing something weird, dang usually has a pretty great explanation for why, so there might be a good reason for this choice as well.
Why not just use some proxy-IQ test, if a big concern is to hire smart people? Aptitude tests are perfectly legal - and much harder to rote memorize / "game" than LC questions.
I haven't found askama yet, or rather, discovered it through HN here, I don't check the arewewebyet.org site too often and it's my main source of frameworks to find.

My main worry on things is that I'd rather like being able to express the inheritance in the type system through generics. Ie, having a top level "Page<T>" struct in which I can start putting the various subparts needed to render a page. It seems askama is doing it the other way round with a "parent" member needed in the child page.

>> IMHO, the problem started when we all jumped on Gmail, knowing that there was no support

Back when Gmail was invite-only, most people used Hotmail or Yahoo Mail, which would offer a base level of (I think) about 50-100MB of storage at the time. If you wanted more storage; you'd have to pay for your email service - an idea I don't think anyone born past 2000 has even heard of.

Gmail came along, and suddenly offers us 1 GB of free storage, for free. This was around a quarter the size of some people's hard drives at this point.

Of course we didn't care if there was no support!

Are you kidding? I don't think Hotmail had support, either - (maybe I'm wrong?) - even if you paid for it; but here Google was offering a substantial value for anyone using any other existing mainstream email service, immediately.

They even had STMP and IMAP support, meaning you could use whatever client you preferred. Back in the day most people used computer-side email clients and had local backups of emails anyway - so if one went missing from Google's side it wouldn't be so bad.

There's a reason Gmail is still one of Google's strongest and unusually longest-lasting product of Google's. There's less reason now - but my God, when it was introduced it was an honest-to-God mindfuck as to how they were offering such a large amount of space and features for nothing.
Was there someone around previously who could take my order and give me the drugs at those prices? I'm not convinced this is true. I'm not familiar with GoodRx but they appear to be a coupon aggregator which is not the same thing

This sounds like what I'm looking for for building a set of networking/pentest tools. Ie, being able to spawn an arbitrary number of IO bound processes without the overhead of OS threads, and the contagion and fracturing of Async.

There may still be some fracturing here, ie in the first example (but not the others, inexplicably?) `lunatic::net` vice `std::net`.
Usenet (IRC channels too) had a sense of _place_ that I think is less common in mainstream social media, but still exists to an extent in forums, just with a worse interface overall. I remember some things fondly (partly because I was a teenager) but I'd struggle to say it was superior and certainly no healthier than today. I don't remember it being tech-focused or professional, unless you only hung out in comp.* and not alt.*. Like, who remembers Terry Tickle etc?

Ukraine war: Captured Britons sentenced to death
One thing lost on people is the "for-profit" motive is not solely with insurers or plan providers. Medical practitioners in my experience are extremely motivated to provide as many services as the insurer will pay for regardless of how medically useful they are.

This results in often legitimate procedures being denied. But make no mistake, the care providers billing insurance are just as likely or more likely to try to grab money in any way possible.

I was once involved in a company that would place laboratories and other diagnostic machinery in physician's offices. They would always be very interested in what the insurance reimburses and how many patients they can run it on. There would always be some gimmick like Oh, homocystine we can run on every patient for $5 and be reimbursed $30, and then you would see that ran on every single patient they could to make that money. Eventually insurers would have to shut it down. High sensitivity CRP was another one until medicare locked it to being run once in a patient's lifetime.
You can’t have a reasonable debate about it with someone who minimizes the seriousness of the situation.

I went through the game dev -> business dev career path.

The reason was simple: I did not believe there can be anything interesting or challenging in non-game dev. To my eyes it looked like a choice between making things fly and explode (which was cool and relevant to my peers) and being some "database accountant" writing boring stuff I did not care about.

I was a broke student in my first real job. I didn't even consider being underpaid, because I was making more money than I've ever seen. I took a while before I've learned that my manager was paid literally 3x more than I was.

From the inside, crunch felt like being a hero and shipping on time. I enjoyed coding and was in good health, so it didn't seem problematic to me.

I did not realize how fucked-up game dev business was until I had 3 studios in a row die before releasing their second game.

Who else these days has an end to end ecosystem they can steer in any direction they please? So of course there is no competition.

When AMD released the Opteron A series my first thought was "This will fail as there is no Arm desktop to develop and test on. Why don't they release an Arm desktop/laptop ready APU with AMD GPU, dual channel DDR, SATA (before NVMe) and PCIe to complement it?" That would have been an awesome setup right there.

I mentioned this out loud in a forum and multiple people replied with the same retort: "No one will buy into an ARM desk/laptop without a software ecosystem." Which was true because even if you argued that Linux was good enough, who was going to buy an AMD Arm just to run Linux? Apple can point the ship where it pleases.
OK, that makes sense, thanks for the explanation.
It's funny though. Several years ago a coworker did some profiling on one of our server software components and found that it was spending up to 10% of the CPU time in strlen()... for very similar reasons.
Usenet binary groups still exist and are heavily used for piracy.
Quite some time ago, I gave up on letting sites set their own fonts. Why allow it? The ones on my system are perfectly usable and familiar -- some sites may pick slightly better ones, others will go for some annoying whimsical bullshit.

Going back and forth on allowing sites to set text/background colors.

Good content doesn't need graphic design tricks to remain interesting.
Anything using the green/lightweight or OS thread model is usually easier to use at the cost of some runtime performance. Whether the runtime performance matters for your use case can only be determined by measuring stuff.

The perception that async rust is where you should start for concurrent rust because it's built in and everyone uses it perhaps should be revisited. I would argue that the other options are worth consideration first and dropping down to low level async code might be warranted when you need the performance it gives and that justifies the increase in development costs.

It helps my layman's eyes clearly relate the trajectories of the various developmental processes of each approach. I wonder why SPARC and ITER are the only projected ones. Do the other reactors being built not have estimated yields? My favourite has long been the wendelstein, because of they way it looks and how it feels like its pathway to success might be software based. I like the way Tokamak Energy markets itself, and would have loved to see the ST25 and the ST40 in that image, but maybe they're not complete enough projects to be on there?
It would seem to me the appeal of this service is not saving x% on average but avoiding paying x000% more for some niche needs.

This might seem contrary to a lot of management practices you may come across but I think you're really going about it the wrong way. Things like following key metrics to assess sprint health, anonymous surveys, more manager involvement all to me signal warning bells of an environment that doesn't trust it's people, which might actually be the root cause behind all the engineering challenges.

I think you should take a drastically different approach and see how you can reduce manager involvement in most activities. A manager's job is to create the right environment for a team to function, and then step away. If they are not able to step away, they have failed their job. The problems that you mentioned typically happen when people lack a sense of ownership around their work. With the right culture that entrusts people with responsibilities and an environment that empowers them to do what they need easily, most people will respond well and step up to ensure the goals of the team are met.

Because, in an economic sense, of asymmetry between the parties. You only have a handful of car companies to buy a $30k green 5-door sedan from. But Ford can easily afford to lose you as a customer - Ford is more important to you than you are to them.

An extreme case of this (in some places) is the internet provider. If they know they're the only ones they can basically charge much more than if you were living in an area with healthy competition. What're you gonna do, not use the net?
The cause of sports piracy and all of these weird deals is because games are most valuable in the regions of the participating teams. It's a Gordian Knot of rights issues, and it exists as a way to extract as much money from fans as possible.

And the teams want it this way -- both the Leafs and Canadiens are tied into telco/cableco ownership, who has a vested interest in getting you to pay more for games.
I'm not sure why you're attacking me with this random, unrelated statement. I didn't "blame the working class" in any way, and re-reading my comment I can't come up with any interpretation of my statement that could be read as such.

Sure, but NYC isn't also a specific New York City airport (JFK, EWR, LGA). The problem here is that OSL is apparently used both for the metropolitan area and for one specific airport (in the metropolitan area).
I think you have this precisely backwards. Soulless crunch work in the video game industry as a code monkey given no creative control over the game is more likely to kill your interest in playing video games. If regular boring non-videogame office work killed people's interest in games, there would hardly be a market for videogames at all; who would buy them?
Same experience for me too. I learned a lot, and integrating OAuth into a platform was pretty painless, including importing and managing users.

It was the first time I felt like I can wrangle the OAuth spec and implementation, and really understand all the ways in which things can go wrong without proper care and expertise into how an OAuth server can be attacked, and how to mitigate those issues the right way.

As a Canadian I highly disagree. And anecdotally many health care providers from Canada agree with my take. People frequently die, or get sicker, as they wait their turn in months long queues or lack of supply due to government quotas.

There is nothing stopping the government from substituting lower-quality, less effective procedures when their MBAs come in an consult about how to reduce costs.

The number one question you need to ask yourself right now is do you value democracy? If the answer is yes, as a citizen of these United States you are obligated to watch the 1/6 hearings, and to learn everything the committee has learned.

If you want, I’ll be your pen pal during the 1/6 hearings. I’d like to hear your thoughts about the evidence presented, and if that changes your feelings about 1/6. Let me know I’ll give you my email.

I implore you to watch the hearings because you are using very strong language like “delusional” and "deranged", yet you don’t seem to be up to date on the facts relating to 1/6; you are under the impression that the totality of the coup attempt was seizing the Capitol building. That is not true. The 1/6 hearings will tell you exactly how they would have succeeded, and it’s far more insidious than an insurrection.

You are right it would take far more than occupying a building. It would take a conspiracy between state legislatures, state secretaries of state, paramilitary groups, the DOJ, the DOD, and it would have to reach as high as the White House and POTUS. Unfortunately for the USA, that's just what happened here.

(Just to head off an anticipated response, yes I understand the connotation of a conspiracy theory, but conspiracies happen and when they do they are hard to keep quiet if they are far ranging, as I'm alleging this conspiracy was. The coup plot has not been kept quiet, which is how I'm able to assert these points before the 1/6 committee has held their hearings. Everything I said has been reported already. I mean, just watch recently indicted Peter Navarro explain the whole plot live on national TV. They even had a codename for their plot: "The Green Bay Sweep").

But don’t take my word for it, the 1/6 committee will prove all of this in the coming weeks. All I’m saying is watch the hearings today and through June. You owe it to your country if you value democracy.
I can't help you, sorry, but I can commiserate. I have (had) an ancient account on Yahoo, lost access to it, lost my backup drive (it was in storage for years, I eventually found it again but it's effectively a brick) and then Yahoo reincarnated itself a few times(?), anyway, the data is toast, it probably still exists somewhere but there's no realistic way that I'm ever going to see it again.

I think about this stuff a lot. On the one hand, I have trained myself over the years never to blame the user. On the other hand, since we are rapidly wiring up our civilization and society to depend utterly upon computers I feel it behooves the average person to educate themselves about them at least to a level of basic computer literacy (or risk becoming a kind of serf or peasant.) On the gripping hand, there certainly are groups of people (corp, state) who seem really into the idea of creating a "peasant" class that supports them but has no effective power over them. Those folks strive mightily to shepherd their customers into their silos (the metaphor becomes a bit mixed, sorry.)
> The more you can integrate the slower pace of nature and natural life, the better your mental health. Your physical presence is optimised for long days of doing fuck all, sitting in the grass, waiting for a deer to pass by.

I am 1000% on board with this perspective, yet find your prescriptive solution to be a tad askew.

To me, the early internet - especially the pre-broadband days - was very similar to "doing fuck all," waiting for something to come by my screen to engage my focus & attention. In fact, the keyboard-driven computing world was a very pure invocation of the hunter-gatherer mindset. I wrote an article on Medium about this back in 2017, called "Tyrannical Illiteracy." [0]

I have yet to conceive of a more fitting description of today's internet than that.

I think a lot of people feel the same way however you need a critical mass of users. I'm just presuming I'm younger than you however I miss the old days of discussion forums, you'd have some for web comics, anime, TV shows all with their set of screen names that you learned and inside jokes that lived on. Along with this is my love of IRC (which I'm still idling in)

Now with the internet feeling like it's just Reddit, Facebook, Google, Discord, LinkedIn, and Pintrest a lot of the fun inside jokes have gone to die, and the groups are so large that no-one even looks at a username.
I second this. I purchased an older ipad pro, pencil, and procreate for probably around $900 total. I rarely use the iPad for anything else (whiteboarding is the other main use), and joke that it's my Procreate machine. It's still the best money I've spent.
