The health and safety aspect is mind-numbingly overbearing. And for good reason. It is an underground workspace that is surrounded by the general public. When escalators are replaced the entire work area gets boxed in. There must be significant controls in terms of dust, gas (like welding equipment), noise etc. Fire is a significant risk and the underground has history that makes them anxious about fire and escalators (see Kings Cross Fire). Most of the work probably has to take place after hours, and subject to other maintenance taking place. On the underground, you can't just put a new escalator in a docker container and spin it up. The Underground is a significantly complex environment.
Not to the developers.
I hope they would put that much enthusiasm to claim and clean all those ships that sunk in WW2 and massively poluting the oceans while leaking some dark petrol/charcoal mix.
Assuming they rebuilt an exact replica of your software, there is a misaligned incentive at play. The hiring manager don't pay the 19 new hire salary out of his own pocket, the hiring manager don't build the product directly. No one get fired by hiring bunch more people. On the other hand, arguing a, for example, 50% effort does have a negative impact to whoever making the arguing. Even more so if it means fighting HR bureaucracy. Imagine the salary is benchmarked against some sort of "industry average" and you have to convince people that you are maybe 100% better than average.

So assuming you are still playing the employment game, maybe next time you can make arguing for you easier.

This is one of the most ridiculous arguments against free education I've ever heard. It's enough to have a look at the job market in Europe where higher education is mostly free to understand how misleading this argument is.
It's complicated. What you suggest is true, but how you get to that point is different. The parent is also emphasizing high volume low intensity training which is part of many routines; high intensity interval training is another.

Often the strategy is to adopt both, until you gradually converge on some target (pace over distance). Where that target is is a different issue.
> What I'd really like is a continuously scrolling calendar to help with long-ish term planning (3-4 months).

The iOS calendar works this way (if I understand your use case properly).

At the top right is a back arrow, which, if you're in a more granular view (say, for a day or a week), will take you a view where you can scroll through all months, and if you go back one more time, scroll through all years. From one of these "zoomed out" views, you can dive back into any more detailed view.

Good. Had they bought PowerPoint and then became successful they’d get big, rich, and lazy. And we’d never have gotten the iMac or later the iPhone.
Disclaimer: I've gone to school in a much saner, and much cheaper system.

I feel that only helping the subset of students who - with seeing eye - moved into an expensive course and then could not pay back later, while not somehow giving support to more responsible people (who did choose not to go into an overpriced education OR who paid of their debts) is giving the wrong incentives - go yonder and consume, throw out money with both hands, and then wait for the next politician to pay your debt (with money paid for by the more reasonable folks, which we indirectly punish that way).

I think he retconned this up a bit in later stories, after people had pointed out the problem. But yeah, it's a weirdly common problem in science fiction; for whatever reason few authors bothered to check the density of existing cities before declaring a weirdly sparse world-city.
You are wrong, the maximum of average daily wet-bulb temperatures in the tropical region over the past 40 years has been 33°C. The highest ever recorded wet-bulb temperature is 36.3°C, for a brief period. Saudi Arabia and Pakistan were the first to break the 35°C threshold.

With climate change the risk is that we will increasingly experience such temperatures.

When I was a scientist, I saw a similar level of degradation in work output for the group from PowerPoint. People would do experiments just to have something to present and talk about in the PowerPoint. I’d lose a whole day of research every time it was my day to present and I had to spend the day before making the PowerPoint. It has pros also, but the cons are severe. Goodhart’s Law rears its head over and over as society goes forward. Your target becomes a full PowerPoint instead of the real measure which is making good science and publishing good papers.

I also live in a country close to the equator with high temps and humidity. No one basically goes outside all summer, it's hell here, homeless people and people doing manual labor simply die each summer. Many residents simply leave for the whole summer to go somewhere cooler. If this is your idea of "good," then I'm worried for you.
Yes, total comp decreased by about 20%.

They did try to make it right: I got a merit base salary increase of about 9%, and the company gave a top up RSU grant when they usually do stock refreshers once annually. I appreciated that, but this wasn't enough to make up for the stock crashing hard. I'm pushing hard for a promotion to try and somewhat make up for it.

When I started working here I thought of RSUs as a casino and never counted on them for living expenses, but they've become such a huge part of my total comp that it still stings mentally a bit. I'm still very well paid, but we have some big expenses coming up around trying for kids. With inflation we're trying to budget a little tighter to ensure that our plans go smoothly.
Comparing confidence metrics of the networks themselves is like comparing two athletes by asking them each how good they are and declaring athlete B the winner of the race because he thought he was better than athlete A thought about himself.

I am not really sure what makes it "YOLO" anymore other than being a single-shot detector, but the author claims they took inspiration from the techniques in the original YOLO papers.

My grandmother had a small desk paper weight sliding calendar from the 60s that she got as a promotional item from a bank. One side had the calendar and the slider and of course the bank name. The other side had a cheat sheet for year/month and what to set things to if you got lost. Think there were some plastic bits to clip over the days that were not in the month but those were lost to time. Think Matt Parker had a vid a few years ago on reusing calendars from previous years. 14 combinations I think was the total number of calendars you had to keep. But I could be remembering wrong.

- Great font, I've always liked the DIN Font for its clarity (DIN is a German industrial norm)

- font-size and line-height match each other well and follow best-practices (line-height is 1.4 times the font-size)

- well-fitting margins after paragraphs

- clear distinction between headline and text, this also applies to meta information etc.

- line length is < 90 chars so your eyes don't have to travel too far to get back to the start

All in all very well done.

edit: There's obviously even more like choice of colors, contrast, graphical elements etc. Just wanted to point out that someone really thought about this and not just installed some theme and that's it.
Of course they don’t! I didn’t mean to slightly suggest anything like that is justified. My remarks were purely to point out a truth that this ambassador is not sincerely interested in the well being of the Armenians. He is using them just like the Russians were but in a different way.
I'm also quite surprised that the impact this could have on how the Chinese view Russia and Russians in general is not mentioned. It's likely not major (I'm not sure how easy it is to access the Chinese Wiki in there), but I'd imagine it's non-negligible.

I think you're conflating very dissimilar things. Blade Runner and Star Wars are both incredibly influential, but artistic quality and influence are two very different things. The word "masterpiece" is related to artistic quality, not influence. Keeping Up With the Kardashians is highly influential but few people would call it a masterpiece.

"Musk, like many of us, has taken Twitter breaks before. In June 2020 — shortly after the birth of his son, X — Musk announced that he'd be "off Twitter for a while," only to return four days later. And in 2019, he quit tweeting for all of three days after pondering the "good" of Twitter."

So, it is uncharacteristic of him to take a break without announcing it, and unprecedented to be missing more than 3 days.

It’s complicated to know, because identifying which of your employees is providing the results is a hard problem. In practice it often devolves into people spending at least as much time marketing themselves to management as they do actually being productive, and optimizes for people who are good at that marketing being in high positions instead of people who are most productive. The larger the company the more pronounced this issue is, which is why so many large companies aren’t kicked out of the market despite their lack of ability/willingness to pay according to results.
Logically if the OP was never born, his software wouldn't exist, and a company wouldn't have made the judgement that replacing his software asap would be a good use of up to 19 man years of budget

(Of course it's also unknown whether that decision was a sensible one, whether it was forced by external pressure like API changes despite the stability and maintainability of the original system and whether the OP's software possessed equivalent functionality to its expensive replacement. All we know is the choice to create the software again from scratch was, to some extent, influenced by what had already been created)
What you are saying is true.

But the reality is: every community has leaders — business and political and intellectual — and sometimes those leaders pick sides and whether we like it or not their people will be judged.

Yes I agree! And it is funny because ironically throughout my years (thankfully to a lesser extent recently) the most inaccessible people have been managers. They always seemed to have calendars stuffed to the brim with "important" meetings
We can shift "peak population" forward by instituting progressively dystopian measures.

"The city" is one such measure.

We can also sacrifice quality of food, air...

That is why I mentioned incentives. To make it more precise, assuming everyone works to the best of their abilities, people should be compensated in proportion to the time they work, not the output of their work.
Another cool thing is you can initialize the Postgres db when it starts the container with your own SQL (or sh) scripts to create your schemas, tables, views etc by just copying the scripts into /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/.

Like:

COPY pg/pg-config.sql /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/000-pg-config.sql

COPY pg/schemas.sql /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/010-schemas.sql

COPY pg/meddra-tables.sql /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/020-meddra-tables.sql

# ...

RUN chmod a+r /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/*

But then who does the copyright belong to? Does it belong to every artist who's input was used for training? Was it the user who set up the conditions and chose the image? Or was it OpenAI who developed the model?

Given the court ruling I linked earlier OpenAI almost definitely does not have ownership over the output of the AI, which is what they claim.
The 10mb of JS is an interesting but misplaced example. There are situations where it's worth the effort to write something with a smaller footprint from scratch but it always comes down to individual incentives. Will it ship faster if we just import this overpowered library? Will additional bloat to our webapp effect the bottom line in any discernible way? The answer to those questions is so frequently yes and no respectively that the emergent result is what you see in your browser's network tab.

The user won't shed a tear if it's removed, but they won't leave and spend their money elsewhere in all but the most pathological cases. I think the state of webdev is the result of a common and general problem, micro optimal decisions result in frustrating macro structural issues.

But then again if you've found cases where you can build a business off of serving users 10 fewer mb of JS than a competitor, more power to you. Be the change.

It presumes you know both what the current month is and how many days it has. I'm pretty solid on the former and for the second it's either "thirty days hath September" or counting across my knuckles. I also know it's Wednesday but don't ask me whether it's 28 or 29. That's where I'd be checking a calendar.

But it is something of an exercise in minimalism, sitting between functional and fun. So not for everyone, but scratches my itch, as does my wall clock with just an hour hand smoothly gliding through the day (it has 12 marks per hour so at a glance one sees the time to a resolution of a few minutes, which is more than good enough for almost anything in daily life)

Let me refresh my memory

Checked. I stand corrected. It was a few months, not two years and the seabird was not an endangered species globally (but can be locally).

It happened in the National park of Timanfaya almost twenty years ago. At the end of June-2003, a trail of depredated corpses of Scopoli's shearwaters started to appear.

The area is dry and the invisible predator left no traces and almost no faeces to examine. The National Park staff suspected a ferret as main candidate. Dogs, cats or even badgers were also in the list, some camera traps were set and eventually show a racoon.

Until caught at the end of the summer, the final "bodycount" was 100 shearwaters killed (plus the orphaned chicks unable to survive without the parents). This just by one single racoon in a single summer. The animal was tame, not afraid of people and was clearly a released pet. If it hadn't happened in a national park no one would have bothered to hunt it.

I only found a link in Spanish, you can use google translate if you are curious about the details.

I don’t think he is saying that a developer is in no way responsible for documentation, that is a pretty uncharitable interpretation of the comment.

I think they’re saying it is not up to the developer to make sure it happening writ large/that there is a system in place. That’s pretty much why we have managers and processes in place that everyone follows beforehand (ideally). If a company doesn’t implement systems, it’s not really up to me to do it. Often I will because it makes my life easier and I’m not a rigid “not my department” personality, but I’m not going to feel personally responsible when they drop the ball and wanted to plow ahead without putting the systems in place upfront. Especially because this often happens despite folks bringing up the need in the first place.

So much wrong here. Seems to be a trend on hn this morning.

Food for thought, even if they did steal code, what would that have looked like in the 70s and 80s? Printing out reams of paper? Wheeling in a giant hard disk?
what does citing the pareto principle here even mean? say 80% of programmers are "unproductive" isn't even what the principle even states. a generous interpretation in line with the line of though you've presented would be that 80% of programmers contribute 20% of overall productivity. this perhaps isn't wrong, but defining "unproductivity" from the assumed contribution proportions of an entire industry would require even more heinous assumptions that a any single developer isn't able to do

perhaps you're more productive than your fellow co-workers, congratulations, but extrapolating your programming skills into economic commentary or hiring is a bit egregious

You're misinformed as the meaning of the word cliché, if that's your definition. Cliché != normal. Heat has a variety of different people with different families and different situations, it's realistic, it's not clichéd. Cliché implies an overused trope, especially one which is heavily featured or relied upon as a major element of the story. This "soccer mom" element (which I don't agree with to start with) is a very minor side aspect barely featuring for 1 or 2 minutes in the movie. The fact that you obsess over it so much is frankly weird to me.

Also, movie critics highly disagree with you and consider Heat to be one of the best crime/thrillers ever made, original, fresh, not clichéd, and the movie which every crime thriller which came after aspired to be.
I think you missed the "/s". There's no way the Space Shuttle Launch System has enough delta v to reach the moon.
