They are free to complain too, and in this case Musk can fire them and try to find other talented people to replace them - if that is in the best interests of the shareholders and other stakeholders. There is nothing special about Musk's side of the argument or Musk's leverage; the employees have leverage too.

But really the goal is to make SpaceX as productive as possible, to do something productive for the world, not to serve Musk's whims. If there is a trade-off between the whims and the productivity, it's clear which should be sacrificed.

I really like the idea of Triplebyte but it did not seem to be worth the effort. If it could get you past multiple tech screens at big companies it would be great. I don't really care that it saves me an hour of doing an easy coding challenge at some no name company...

Random, related wish: I've always wanted a screenshot utility that captured windows/screens as PDFs (or SVGs), with each element as separate objects at their highest-available resolutions. For example, icons would be 512×512px objects. Vector representations would be created for controls like windows, menus, and buttons.
How do you want them to inform you other than RTFM and word of mouth?

Do you want constant buttons on screen at all times for every possible OS-level functionality?

Harm does not necessarily mean only life threatening issues IMO. There have been a bunch of studies recently indicating dropping male fertility with strong links to plastic consumption.
You're right, the maths simplifies it a lot. I rushed out a one-liner without much analysis, and eventually come to the same conclusion.

There's no Range method that takes (start, stop, step) but it's trivial enough to write one, it's a single for loop and yield return statement.

We can even trigger the python users by doing it in one line ;)

public static class CustomEnumerable { public static IEnumerable<Int32> Range(int start, int stop, int step) {for (int i = start; i < stop; i+=step) yield return i;}}

Try writing your function definitions on one line in python!
Simply could also mean it's thriving. FastAPI has nearly 50k stars. It is very popular and very effective in what it promises. Active repos with similar popularity have way, WAY more issues and pull requests, projects like Apache/echarts, Godot, Redis or Grafana.

Projects with similar stars, momentJS or Jquery don't see much active development have very few issues and pull requests.
You can rationalize it that way, I get it. However, last I checked Mozilla has a lawyer as their CEO. Why do you think they haven't tested this idea in court if the message is so good?

Yeah, the economies of scale that VCs are looking for weren't there.

And even if they stayed to their original model it would have been too easy for niche competitors to erode their margins. Think Triplebyte for Android developers only times 20 different programming areas.
The query Clickhouse picked on does not actually leverage time order. Perhaps clickhouse vendors on this thread can comment on relevance of the date partitioning for this query. My best guess is that it might help the execution logic to create data chunks for parallel scan.

QuestDB does also use partitions for this purpose but we also calculate chunks dynamically based on available CPU to distribute load across cores more evenly

Upvoted but disagree. VS Code and VS have totally different lineages and probably not much shared code under the hood. I've used VS for many years (best IDE bar none, in my opinion) and when I started playing with VS Code I couldn't help but think they should have chosen a different name.

I appreciate what VSCode is achieving, though, I can run on my Linux host and remote into my microcontroller bare-bones OS for debugging and everything works nicely together but it ain't no Visual Studio.

I doubt it would work if they changed the place of tools, the layout of the factory, stuff like that.

> The continued life expectancy of humans seems to show that any harm is very small.

This is terrible logic. If something causes deafness, blindness, or missing toes it will not affect life expectancy.

Additionally, suppose in same year a drug against cancer i.proves life expectancy by 5 years and plastic pollution causes it to go down by 5 years - so you will never find out.

Having mostly worked for west coast companies, I'd be pretty surprised if this was common.

Granted, I was raised mormon, which is like a half-cult, but within tech companies themselves I haven't really seen any of this behavior. Perhaps it's more common in other departments (I'm a SWE), I dunno.
My favorite instance of this is bugs in open source projects. I worked briefly in streaming video - like for 3 months - and in that time concluded that the very, very, very old bugs in ffmpeg actually constituted some of the most reliable behaviors on which I could confidently depend.
These behavioral nudges are desirable for decision makers because they can push people into behaving a certain way without needing to explicitly write down or put up posters about them. In other words, doing things this way has a much lower change of the public pushing back.
It is also about the shared responsibility of the crew. E.g., the board has installed a set of rules regarding corporate culture, and this for a reason, namely to provide a climate for achieving best results, avoiding distractions and material damages. It's a shared responsibility of everybody in this environment to have an eye on whether the company lives up to these standards or not, in order for this to work. (Mind that the open letter directly addresses these codes.)

Edit: Mind that there is an obvious conflict between positions like, "you do as I say, because my money", and the complex relations that constitute a corporate business.

Here are my notes on this keynote:

How to decide what to learn for a life long career?
1) Find a tech thats already in wide use
2) Find full filling open source projects for you and develop them. Develop and learn in public.
3) Get really really good at your current job.

There are no perfect companies for many of us, there are no perfect nations. We can’t run away from all these scenerios. You are gonna have to figure out the best impact you can make within that realm.

The minute you figure out how to put your personality on top of this thing we call work is when you start to stand out as an individual and people can actually see you. …And when you make that pivot, they will actually follow you.
With respect to software objects, the most likely reasons for their life to end are:

1. Not sufficiently useful relative to involved costs for most applications(data formats, configuration maintenance, etc.)

2. Disrupted by something that is "10x better" for the purpose(e.g. using a spreadsheet instead of a text editor for 2D, cell-oriented data)

3. Outside forces invading the ecosystem and obsoleting dependencies(new OS, hardware, etc.)

So what the Lindy effect describes in long-lived software is just the software that is relatively cheap to keep around, is hard to greatly surpass and resists invasion - which describes a lot of "worse-is-better" software, where the UX kinda sucks, and it's actually a bit too unstructured for any particular application, but not enough of these things that anyone cares to address it in the relevant professional scenarios where it comes up: instead the user just girds themselves to fight it into submission because they can spend six hours fighting it and one week debugging it or two weeks making a Right Thing that is much less compatible.
I think it's fair to want money/a job, and pursue getting hired for one, but then also be interested in improving the culture or working conditions of the job once you start working there.

You say they are entitled - high skill, difficult to replace workers are actually entitled to make demands of their employer which are proportional to the value they offer, in particular when they act collectively.

Hacker News caps downvotes so it’s quite easy to actually say what you need to at times where it’s important. (Before someone says something like “but I got shadowbanned for doing this” consider it you 1. followed the guidelines while doing so and 2. actually backed your position up with evidence.)

I had recently joined the Alphabet Workers Union, the union of now almost 1,000 workers across all Alphabet companies, including Google. I told them my story and they advised that I get a lawyer.

Wait, Unions in the USA don't have a legal office to help workers with this kind of legal problems? Or is this specific to AWU?
It comes from risk aversion. Firing people is painful and expensive. And it's hard to know how good someone actually is just from interviewing.

So if I've worked with someone previously and know they're not lazy or incompetent, that's worth a ton -- even if they're not the absolute best person for the job.
Nah that's too general. A lot of website/app backends use Django or Fastapi and they work fine. Many more use PHP, also not a language famed for extreme performance.

It depends on the application. Personally I wouldn't use Python for a GUI (because I'd use JS/TS).

I think that's in large part because Scouting was almost obligatory for LDS kids (it isn't any longer, since the LDS church cut ties with the BSA) --- nobody pressured us Catholic school kids to join the Boy Scouts, and most didn't. The troop, meanwhile, met in the basement of my local parish. What I'd just want to call out is that even in the 1980s, the Boy Scouts were openly and emphatically multi-faith. Not just ecumenical, but also going out of its way to teach Scouts that they were going to encounter other Scouts from totally different faith traditions.

The BSA may have been problematic for other reasons! I haven't thought that much about them since I dropped out (I only made it to Scout First Class). It was a sort of inherently conservative organization, as you'd expect just from hearing the Scout Oath. You can see where the Scouting ethos would mesh pretty perfectly with LDS culture.
Umm, members of cliques don't ritually abuse each other - that's a cult thing.

> Gerrymandering so that urban centers lose their voting power and other election rigging techniques is what is holding back Democratic policies.

I mean gerrymandering doesn't help but the Democrats aren't one cohesive unit otherwise they'd have no issue doing stuff right now. Sure people claim they only have 50+1 in the senate so they can be filibustered but they can just remove the filibuster with 50+1 and then do w/e they want. Democrats don't achieve their "party position's" because they're not the position that each member of the party has.

The same is true for Republicans. Look at Trump's campaign promises [1] which were often parroted by Republicans in congress but they only major thing they achieved was the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act [2]. ACA was not repealed because some Republicans voted no. One thing news orgs commonly bring up with Trump is he appointed a bunch of judges but that's just because Republicans changed the filibuster so they could; if RBG retired when Obama told her too or Democrats made the same changes, Obama would have appointed a bunch more judges.

How about where you fit better?

Think about:

2. Your kid is going to school and later do university? Which place is better?

3. Kid is sick and you need a hand where it would be better?

In Europe you will be low middle class for at least 10 years and then middle class for the rest. Considering US standards.

There is no mobility in Europe and even if you are promoted taxes will take care of that.

US is more like a "A la carté" menu. You pay what you ask for. Europe is like a free refill buffet.

It is not only about compensation but how you do perceive freedom, social family and future.

I think this is bad advice, frankly. Such things are not unusual, non-tech suits always want blinkenlights and such, because they think it'll impress prospective customers. The stories I could tell, datacenters like circus acts.

The key is to keep the blinkencrap away from the real network/servers/patch panels, because those things have to actually work at all times, and it's your neck if it doesn't.

When you start adding extra switches and whatnot to the network just because they look and blink nice, you're actually adding points of failure into the network, stuff that can affect your network for whatever reason if something goes wrong.

I would advise either outright refusing to do it, or adding completely unconnected bling like rsync's comment lists -- expensive junk that serves no purpose except look flashy. But just never connect that crap to a production network.
I didn't give any value judgement to it and I don't have any suggestions as I really haven't spent a lot of time on that problem space. If I become an OS developer I'll give that problem some thought.

How are we supposed to optimize coding languages, when the underlying hardware architecture keeps changing? I mean you don't write assembly anymore, you would right in the LLVM. Optimization was done because it was required. It will come back when complete commoditization of cpus occur. Enforcement of standards and consistent targets allow for high optimizations. Just see what people are able to do with outdated hardware in the demo and homebrew scene for old game consoles! We don't need better computers, but so long as we keep getting them, we will get unoptimized software, which will necessitate better computers. The vicious cycle of consumerism continues.
On the other hand, the internet has exposed me to people who are highly skilled and blog about it who have taught me lessons I would have been unlikely to learn on my own, and would have never been able to learn from 1-on-1.

Ehm yeah, thank God planes do not fly like this. The two pilots and the rest of the crew communicate and coordinate or we would have a lot of accidents.

There is a reason planes still have two pilots -- and it is not that the need two or even one to function most of the time.

PIC does not order anyone around, but is the actor/writer. The other pilot verifies and overrides/calls issues. And certain operations, for instance during take off, are done together.

Maybe companies work that way, but if you fly a plane with that approach, I am joining as the second, crew or passenger.

> Infantry are vulnerable to literally everything, and yet no one besides some dingbats that watched terminator too many times are suggesting the age of infantry is over. Aircraft are vulnerable to missiles. Is anyone suggesting the age of aircraft are over? Drones, particularly consumer quadcopter adopted out of convenience are vulnerable to missiles, autocannons, and electronic warfare. Does not the very same logic being offered as proof of the end of tanks apply to drones as well?

Being armoured is the tank's core value proposition in a way that it isn't for those other examples. The thing that a tank can do that a self-propelled gun can't is survive on a battlefield where small arms fire is overwhelmingly common and armour-penetrating munitions aren't. If we get to a point where that situation is no longer relevant, the tank's reason to exist disappears.
