Isn't inflation the problem?

Satellite surveillance is going through a capability explosion at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised if it could spot venting in the present or near future.
There's nothing that will cause you to mistake classism for ableism more than being upper-class and disabled. Is it ableism if you call a person lazy whose legs work perfectly well who insists on being pushed around in a wheelchair all day? Does it mean that you also look down on people who don't have the use of their legs or the strength to walk for using a wheelchair?

Even the pressure is coming from class norms. Normal people and normal cooks aren't becoming depressed because chef-influencers look down on pre-minced garlic.

Also, the packaging is a problem. The reason for all of this prepackaged stuff is because the margins are so high on it, not because grocers are fighting for the disabled. They'd love for us all to be living from meal kits.
>What do you do, or how should you feel/react/believe if a people actually want the tradeoffs of more authoritarianism in exchange for more security/economic stability/etc?

There is no tradeoff, they are the same thing. Freedom from rent seeking results in both security and economic stability and is anti authoritarian.

They are wrong. Its simply factually wrong. Starlink will coexist with many global LEO constellations, many are already in planning.

Managers have personal priorities and interests that may not align with the interests of the company. e.g. company doesn't want dead weight, but the manager does for any number of reasons. Maybe the manager really likes those people on a personal level, or maybe the dead weight have dirt on the manager, or maybe the dead weight are kept around as sacrificial material should the manager ever be forced to make cuts, or maybe the incentive structure in the company rewards managers for having more reports, etc.

So yes, expecting managers to put company interests before their own may actually be too hard.
Because the people making hiring decisions are mostly located in high cost of living areas, which is why I'm skeptical they'll succeed with it much longer.
Dasani's uniquely terrible. IDK what they do to it, but it's awful (to me—apparently someone likes it). I've not had another name-brand non-super-cheap bottled water that was outright bad.

Every now and then I'll get a cheap gas station or local brand bottle of water (when traveling, say) and on the first sip it's like "yep, that's just not-very-good tap water, not even filtered". Other times it's fine, but it's pretty obvious the ones that just went with whatever the cheapest local source was and didn't do anything to it.
I read the article, but I will choose to take the headline literally.

Since men on average prefer a colder work environment than women, I wonder if this will lead to a disproportionate number of males leaving the workplace, improving their male:female ratio?
Isn't this basically how social security, or, for that matter, a defined benefit pension works?
Very eurocentric commentary in this thread.

China, a civilization-state that predates the West by thousands of years, was not going to turn into the West, no matter how much we wished for it.

Very normative patriarchal colonialist judgments on a country that raised more people out of poverty than any other time in human history.
Tell me! Not sure on auto-focus so, the mirrorless sytems seem to struggle with gast moving objects. If there are eyes to track they beat DSLRs everytime so. Also frame rate can be better, the absence of a mirror really helps. Not that close to 10 fps is bad by any stretch.

Fully agree that mirrorless is the future, took long enough to fully get track.

There are some DSLR snobists, there are prime lense snobists, there are mirrorless snobists, there are frame rate snobists.

In the end the picture matters, whatever helps you get good pictures is good for you.

That beimg said, as of now I'd say a Z6ii is still behind a D780 a bit and quite a bit behind a D6 (I'm a Nikon shooter, so don't ask questions about other brands). A Z9 on the other hand... That being said, none of those options beats the one you can actually afford and know how to use.

Edit: Which DSLR (Edit 2: I mean mirrorless...) gets 20 fps? The Z6ii is at 12. Everything above is, what, 5k plus for the body?

Edit 3: That seems to be Nikon's Z9 with 20-30 fps in continous mode. Up to 120 in small JPEG. Impressive, and with 6k Euros almost reasonably priced when compared to other Nikon top mofels of the past. One can still get a Z6ii and a bunch of top notch lenses. Damn, I shouldn't have looked it up...
That's because this recession is going to be manufactured. Powell was clear, wages are rising too fast for the feds liking so they are going to crash the ship into the rocks.

Facebook had more than $7B net income last quarter and has $60B cash-on-hand.

While I'm sure that, ceteris paribus, they're more happy if low performers quit than have to be laid off, I'm equally sure that if they felt like they could go through and cut out low performers right now, and the only cost to do so was paying severance, they'd be happy to do it. The idea that Facebook or Zuckerberg of all people has an unwillingness to pay short-term costs for long term benefits is crazy.

There's a difference between being cynical about a corporation and being willing to attribute every bad trait in the world unconditionally to every corporation without any reflection.
The problem is that the "very clear expectations" end up being lines of code written, tickets closed, bugs fixed, or whatever, then your employees optimize for that, rather than doing what is right.

Deadwood management sounds like a great description.
Exactly.

At a previous job the management team got all excited about KPIs and made each dept come up ~5 of them and then report on them weekly (or maybe it was monthly). I fought it tooth and nail arguing that it was both silly that we were coming up with them and how easily it would be gamed. My concerns fell of deaf ears and instead we wasted upwards of 4-6 person-weeks of time building tools to extract data from Jira to serve as our KPIs. We wrote the damn code to calculate it, of course we know how to juice the numbers. It was a huge waste of time, nothing interesting came out of it (for us or any department), and "management" patted themselves on the back for "taking action".

I'm not say all metrics suck and are a waste of time but you better have a very good reason for them before you go all-in.

A friend of mine's company started requiring all their developers to track their time, down to the 15min interval. I'd be looking for a new job within a week. Don't even get me started on how asking your employees to track their time is essentially asking them to lie which means the stats you get are worthless, worse than worthless because time tracking takes time on it's own to do.
Warning is actually very useful.

One of the biggest logging mistakes I see is people misusing Error. What most developers consider an error -- external service call failed, user gave bad input, or a timeout happened - is often not really a problem. The service call is re-tried. Users are going to user (and provide garbage data and then fix it).
None of these require operator intervention.

To me, Errors imply action needed, or highlight an unresolved situation. If the service call keeps failing after all retries, and now a feature is impacted (eg a user won't get a report, or there's a gap in data somewhere) then that can be an Error.

All the temporary faults are useful as Warn to highlight them and distinguish from other normal operations, but no action is needed. This is most useful when a user reports something like "it seems to be taking much longer than usual to get email notifications" and when an operator looks at the logs, they're full of warnings. It's also useful for monitoring: high number of warnings in the log can cause a non-critical notification to operators (during business hours; not a wake-me-up-at-2am page).
Really high performance MANAGERS understand you can't succeed at scale without indicators. You seem to come from the naive viewpoint that solo devs rule the world and run open-loop like some imaginary hotshot. That couldn't be more wrong.
You can also do this: turn the blade so that it is facing you and "chop" the garlic with the backside of the knife. It will crush the garlic into bits.
> Even if the top performers are insulated from the "heat" there are a non-zero number of them that this won't sit right with and/or they are affected and they leave.

I have seen instances where the "underperformers" were the people that made the workplace/team pleasant to be in. Once they were let go, some overperfomers quit not much later.
>I want to use it, because it seems like such a convenience, but every time I buy a jar it tastes...weird/bad.

I suggest that you do whatever you want/prefer.

As I said in a previous comment[0]:

It's not that I find mincing fresh garlic onerous. Rather
the taste difference (feel free to disagree, I don't mind
-- please do exactly what you want to do) for me isn't big
enough to compensate for the convenience (and lower cost)
of dumping a couple spoonfuls of pre-minced (in water, not
oil -- although if you prefer oil, then have at it) garlic
and off you go.

> Is that something you experience too? Is there a remedy? Does it vary by brand?

Sort of. Yes, the flavor (if I eat it out of the jar) is a bit different, but once it's mixed into the dish I'm cooking, the difference isn't big enough for me to care.

> It is not the UK only, here in Italy there was an entrepreneur (in logistics/transports) who was not finding drivers that pointed out how (for a number of reasons, possibly all of them right) to get nowadays a truck driving license (for TIRs) is very costly (both in terms of time and of money, if I recall correctly something like 6,000-10,000 Euro) and there was the issue on how he could pay in advance the costs but there was apparently no legal way to recover them (by keeping a part of the monthly pay of the worker over a "fair" period, I seem to remember 2 years), as it had happened to him that as soon as the candidate drivers would get the driving license they would resign and find work in another company.

This is peak Italian entrepreneurship. This guy invested some money in training and then went on TV to play the martyr because he can’t retain employees. Instead of doing the right and most obvious thing, that is paying market salaries, he complaints that indentured labor is no longer legal.
I think so. I mean I can definitely imagine situations where it's preferable to network with a work email especially when working in an early stage startup. But at a regular Software Engineering job I'd probably go with my personal email
youtube effectively has abandoned moderation policy, and just has automated report-driven systems.

I bet the video was removed because fractal woodburners with delusions of safety felt angry for being called out, and reported it.
I agree. People who have a gripe or criticism are more inclined to comment than a person who enjoys the product. It reminds me of the old saying "assholes always advertise." It's best to ignore or take those comments with a grain of salt. However, that's often easier said than done.
Rabbits are cute and tasty. But that's one of the rare ones that get eaten.
Those are current technological limitation the same way Montana farmers in the West didn't have barbed wire.

Tracking and control technology is constantly improving. Just like as with airplane safety humanity will improve with increase use.
I think we do a disservice to ourselves and the open culture at many SV companies to give leakers so much attention.

Without context (which when speaking to a company can also include context you can only get by working there and experiencing the culture/norms) it’s possible to pull out clips from most speeches/announcements to excite anger from just about anyone and many media outlets seem very happy to help leakers do just that.

> If they shouldn't be there, fire them.

No, you set clear performance expectations, give them feedback, and then hold them accountable if they don't meet those performance expectations. Which seems to be what Meta is doing here.

I honestly can't believe so many people in this thread would prefer that Meta just slash and burn employees instead of giving them expectations and a chance to meet them.
That would be a reasonable interpretation if the next words out of his mouth weren’t

A Spark Join Operator for Point-in-Time Correct Joins
"%(asctime)s - %(levelname)-5s - %(name)-20.20s - %(message)s - (%(filename)s:%(lineno)s)"

Here’s a logging format that I use and probably you should too. Among other things, it gets around most of the context issues by outputting the file and line number of the code that called the log.

Before I would try and make every log message unique or mostly unique so there weren’t double ups.

I don’t agree with the authors logging clutter though. If you’re manually eyeballing the logs looking for a message you’re already doing it wrong. Use search, have ids in the messages etc.

Remember folks, debug logging on because if it’s not logged, when it breaks you don’t have the logs…
My brother owns (our last name.com). Our great great grandfather started and ran a fairly successful (pre-prohibition) brewery. Someone found out about our last name, trademarked it, and "restarted" the brewery with no relation to anyone in our family. The best part is they feigned ignorance when they "learned" that there were still living descendants in the area...
Browser innovation is a big deal. There are very few "real" (usable daily) browsers with interesting UX concepts due to the complexity of embedding a browser engine and keeping it up to date (yes, including with Electron).

So this is great, even if only from that perspective! Maybe as a base to work from.

I'm not sure I agree with all of the design concepts, but I'll definitely call it interesting - finally something legitimately new! That's great to see, specially in this (somewhat surprisingly) stagnant field.

If we're going to assume that people agree with the post, then we should also be assuming that people agreed with OP's general tone, which really doesn't read as negative criticism so much as constructive criticism. Again, OP's second post was basically, "Appreciate your response to my feedback, best of luck!". Heck, if we're looking at "people who agree based on upvotes alone" then "This is genius, because so many people have this problem," is the second highest-voted comment.

There's constructive criticism (the Dropbox thread) and unconstructive criticism (the Monkey Island thread).
In my experience, people in general have little ability to judge anything. I went through some peer reviews and in one case some workers did not understand some terms on the questionnaire (such as "proactive"). Anyway, the most popular people get ten for being proactive. The internet only make this worse, because in the Internet everyone is "anonymous".

I ignore 99% of judgments, I only start listening if there is a "because" in the judgment: "It's not good, because"... of course, the "because" needs to make sense.
Everyone knows that there are poor performers in any organization, but nobody knows for sure who many of them are.
I am by no means a musician. This friend brought me his guitar pedal because he could not fix it (got stuck somehow and he had not read the manual properly, that’s it).

After “fixing” it, he showed me how he used it (I had never seen one in use).

Those are true marvels of UI/UX. It was possibly one of the simplest pedals, but the things you can do with it and just “one” button. Unbelievable.
Yep, I don't want to work in a fear-based management structure. Sorry for those who don't have better options, but I'm walking when I hear stuff like this.
Swim lessons? Get out of here. Church? I did imagine that. Try reading.

And anyway, schooled kids do all of those things as well. Where's the advantage?

There's a reason I don't consider those activities when talking about school socialization. All of the activities you mentioned are part-time and/or self-selected. School is full-time and you don't get to choose your kids' peers. You can't pull them out easily if you don't like the other kids. Like the rest of the world, kids will need to learn how to deal with it, away from you, all day, every day. They will need to learn how to deal with bullies and spurned crushes and tribal politics and bad teachers and all the rest. And yes, that can be harsh. Yes, some kids will have a difficult time. Most will learn invaluable social skills about how to integrate themselves into society, and they will be practicing those social skills full-time at school.
It was a combination of pressure from above and below: US pressure, but also a newly middle-class population starting to raise hell. In most of those countries, protests and civil unrest presaged the transition to democracy--and suppressing it would cost the government their US support, so the easiest thing to do was to just give in.
Using a real oven for this is kind of a massive waste of energy. I got a smallish countertop convection oven and it's basically replaced nearly all uses I previously had for a small toaster oven and our proper mounted oven that takes 8 million years to preheat, along with a good chunk of microwave uses. The big one only gets used for really big stuff now, maybe once every few months at most.
Unless you're eating it raw, there's no problem with minced garlic or prepeeled garlic. Yes, it has slightly less flavor, but you can just add more of it if you want.
I mentioned this almost every time logging and python come up but one of my favorite feature is logging.exception: https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#logging.Logge.... It allows you to attach the whole exception with stack trace without having to explicitly used “as e” and then use traceback or embed the error in the message. Something like logger.exception(“Failed to connect.”) will print the message and the exception in one go.
About ten years ago, I bought one of those small countertop toaster ovens that is roughly big enough for four pieces of bread to lie flat in it. It became the best $100 I've ever spent. We cook everything small enough to fit in it, including toast with cheese :) . We've since only used our regular full-size oven maybe half as often, because this small countertop one is so much faster and more convenient

No need for an actual toaster, although this one takes a minute or two longer. As an added bonus, my mother-in-law hates waiting that extra minute or two, so that's a big win in my book.
It starts with guitar pedals, but once you get into eurorack synth modules, the UX is completely fascinating. Counter to the article's emphasis on obvious a clear functions, some of them are as mystifying as your first encounter with a unix command line, but once you get them going, holy crap. The depth of information you get from a synth is (literaly) infinite compared to what you get from text or images on a screen.
It just seems so insane to me that cars are even allowed to have touch screens. The last thing I want to do is to be forced to take my eyes away from the road in order to push a button on my dashboard. I'll never buy a vehicle with a touch screen.
It's not n^2. It's a lot better than that.
That’s true, but at a company that size when the order comes all the way from the top to “turn up the heat?” Sounds like a recipe for misery generation.
It's also possible for low voltage shocks to cause your hand muscles to seize the hazard and be unable to release it.

In fact, my TENS unit, specifically designed to cause muscle contraction, runs on 9V.

Edit: ah... I see a throwaway account was used, so you will never have to confront your mistake. I wish these were banned.
It's not like I had physical injury because of his "apology" either, but this is absolutely morally wrong behaviour even if we specifically weren't affected by it, intent matters more than anything, and instead of actually taking to heart that cold mailing (which I don't think is even nearly as bad to start off with) is unfavourable he decided to strap on several layers of even more highly questionable behaviour. I know technical people don't do sales really well, but that isn't really a good excuse for doing this instead, and I don't believe we should allow this to happen without negative criticism.

It's not like this is an effective sales tactic either because intent matters and this is a clear demonstration of lack of ethical and moral values that could directly correlate to how customers are going to be treated.
