As someone who's written custom mvc's in vanilla js/ts on an as-needed basis since long before vue or react were a thing, I agree completely. The reason I've never tried to formalize my frameworks into something for the community is that I don't need another full time job, and don't have any desire to hear the moaning and abuse that inevitably comes when you open source a tool you think will speed up development. I.e. everyone has an opinion. I don't use frameworks because I don't like my codebase sliding out from under me, when I have projects in production for over 10 years that just need occasional new features.

The froth of frameworks and keeping up with them seems to be maximally important to devs looking for office jobs... once you freelance and have time to roll your own, it's just kinda the same routine over and over. I feel bad for folks who have to spend such an inordinate amount of time just learning and working around new tooling. In the end if you spend the time writing it yourself you end up with a better understanding of its strengths and weaknesses. You never need to consult Stack overflow to find out how to deal with your own MVC stack.

You mean seasonal storage near the polar circles and emergency generation?

Because in general it's much cheaper to deal with seasonal variations by adding generation than with storage, and 'rare prolonged outages of renewables resources' doesn't even begin to make sense to me.
Email is the best method of communication for anything complex. It's asynchronous, long-form, has a historical record, allows threading, you can seamlessly include anyone in the world in the conversation, have shared mailboxes and mailing lists, attach files.

But people are afraid of e-mail. Will anyone ever read my e-mail? When will I get a response? What if I mess up my message? It is unknown, immutable, does not provide instant gratification. I want everything NOW. So Slack was created to poorly reinvent e-mail, but with instant gratification and emoji buttons.

I really love open source mailing lists. Every once in a while I'll go skim over some I'm subscribed to and see what's been going on. If I ask a question I usually get an answer within a day or two. The archives provide searchable record/context for everything. I can even review patches and comments on patches, and see the history of all the e-mails before/after it, whereas GitHub PRs are little islands unto themselves. Best of all, it's all stored offline, and I can use any client I want.

It's sad that technological progress means 'things got more advanced', and not 'things got better'.
Whoa - we ban accounts that attack others like this, regardless of how dense other commenters are or you feel they are.

Yeah, just burn terawatts of fossil fuels to generate light for growing your crops instead of using solar energy and natural photosynthesis.

Solar power is intermittent. This make it far more expensive for practical, real world applications in large scale.
Nuclear is the only thing that can realistically substitute fossil fuels. Solar is at best a niche due to the storage needs.
There are reasons why successful co-ops are uncommon and that most successful organisations are top-down structures. A good way to cheaply and deeply learn the reasons for yourself, would be to join some co-op’s (or perhaps charities) in your area. A little experience within a successful co-op and within at least one unsuccessful co-op would go a long way. Good luck!
Seasonal storage of electricity will never be a thing because nowadays it's easier to just build a large solar array somewhere sunny and a long HVDC line. The UK is planning on doing just that:

https://www.power-technology.com/projects/morocco-uk-power-p...

The project is projected to cost close to $22bln, which sounds like a lot, but is still less than the cost of yet-to-be-finished Hinkley Point C.
From what I have seen. I think it’s fairly frequently that an EM runs out of people to put up for promo based purely on merit. When that happens they reach out for folks with tenure in the team. After all, big part of EM’s own promo packet is how many of their reports did they promote.

Another thing is that folks who stick around long enough end up acquiring almost archeological knowledge of systems involved which can be a strong incentive to retain them, for example by awarding a promotion even if they don’t tick many of the “Staff boxes”.

Besides that, I have seen attrition being another cause for these types of promotions. When a Staff TL leaves, it will create a void that an organization often fills by promoting the next most tenured Senior engineer.

As always, FAANGs are huge orgs and these generalizations do not reflect any and all experiences folks might have.
Nothing like a carpentry analogy to obliterate all nuance.

The OP said:

We know that it is “tooling”. But what is “next gen” and “catch up with you”? Are those terms that the appropriate audience is just supposed to get?

Your timeframe on this is way off. He was not compensated at SPAC IPO price levels. The typical employee has been getting RSUs for years and years at valuations several times lower than their IPO level. No one took out a mortgage against stock that was valuable for less than two weeks.

The only part that I think makes him a victim is the idea that management pulled a scheme against his will and he got nothing for it while still having to incur the stigma of being a part of it.

That's part of the problem - opt-in never works because it's an inherently an anti-consumer practice. The industry got so used to vacuuming up as much data as possible that the moment you give customers the option, they do not want to partake.

You know it's a bad thing when you say "If I ask users for consent, nobody will agree to this."

I as a customer want full control of my data and if you, the website owner, try to force me into giving data that I did not consent to (invasive site analytics, for example, that track my page behavior), I will go out of my way to block that through extensions and by just banning things at the DNS level.

expect that's not true because homicide rates don't exist in a vacuum. there's factors like education, poverty, drug use, gangs etc at play and you really can't compare two very big and very different countries with vastly different cultures, temperaments and conditions. its an oversimplification of the world we live in and imo it's better to admit that we don't know.

The news are primarily propaganda outlets nowadays, their goal is no longer in any sense to tell you what's happening in the world, they're for spreading political/social ideology. The concerted, coordinated, effort to push as much anti-Russia propaganda as possible at the beginning of this should have been immediately obvious to you and if it wasn't you're still pretty blind as to what's going on. Doing everything they could to make Russia seem weak, useless, a failure, etc., was one of the main narrative pushes.

this is a good idea, but difficult to nail in scope and multi-lang support. i’ve made similar attempts[1,2]. tbh if this had go support i’d probably try it today.

json, yaml et al are ways to declare literal data. this is good. they are fine.

the issues always come from what the data is used for. nailing your schema, making your data structures as simple as they can be and no simpler, this is where the engineering happens. this is the hard part. literally all that matters.

not validating arbitrary data inputs is obviously a bad idea. whether you validate them via a high level library or tediously by hand[3] isn’t very important.

what is important is that the data structures are sane, simple, and stable. if they are easy to describe, they might be a good idea. if the approach the complexity of general purpose pl, they probably aren’t.

most literal data schemas are too broadly scoped. too general. github actions, other ci, k8s, etc. they have too many knobs, too many permutations. this is not a feature, it is a failure of design.

good schema validation won’t fix broken design. it’s unrelated.

> Right, then why aren't we taught that we don't know why electrons react the way they do from early on?

I was taught that. I don't even know where I picked it up. My impression is that physicists are pretty upfront about it. "Shut up and calculate!" and all that, eh?

I'm not sure I know what you mean. The details are complicated, the essence is comprehensible.

F = ma

E = mc²

Eh? Physics is the process of finding parsimonious and accurate descriptions of the behaviour of matter/energy / space/time, the question of why is the domain of philosophers and theologians.
> and you can ignore or solve geopolitics

That's a hell of an "if" statement there my friend :)

I agree though, in a thousand years there will be a worldwide electricity grid that takes care of the "big picture" energy flows; hydrogen will be created as needed to serve as chemical feedstock to make eg plastics or hydrocarbons for specialized purposes. That or we kill ourselves in the meantime, but since killing everyone is in nobody's best interest I don't think that'll happen. Hopefully.
I agree completely.

Native iOS and Android apps are fantastic in that, as long as you're willing to follow Apple's/Google's guidelines, it's pretty easy to create great user experiences and highly maintainable software. Until the web can match that relative ease, it'll always be second-fiddle to native on mobile.

The problem with the web right now is that the tooling is a complete mess compared to native development. It feels like you end up spending 80 to 120 percent of the effort you'd put in to build two native apps, and even then the web apps would never feel as good as native.

My company strongly considered building web apps, as we move away from MVP to a more mature product, but the web tooling just isn't at the level it needs to be. The only value proposition for web was that it's easier to hire web devs.

On other had my guess is that this tendency also leads them to be rare in uppermost crust of Earth as they didn't bound with other materials, but mostly sink to lower, them also being rather dense on virtue of being where they are in periodic table. This rarity is what actually makes them expensive.

I feel like the article understates Erlang's approach to structured concurrency. Yes, you can spawn processes willy-nilly, but there's a strong emphasis in OTP on constructing supervision trees such that child processes don't outlive parents (that being the main problem which Trio, too, seems to address). Even at a lower level, using `spawn_link` instead of `spawn` would readily address that issue.
Hm; I seem to understand the words you wrote by themselves, but I feel like I'm missing some extra context that you maybe kindly assume I have; wouldn't you mind if I asked you to please consider elaborating a bit more?

If you're serious you won't try to learn from web postings or even books or gurus.

You'll find an organization that has been teaching meditation for decades or longer with good results, and commit to their introductory training. Only such a group has the integrity and intelligence to help you untie your specific knots at specific moments in your journey.

If you need justification or a mental model, think of it this way: the mind presents itself as a series of often-mutually reinforcing emotions and concepts, based in limbic and associational networks of the brain. Meditation is training that decouples associations and valuations, to avoid vicious feedback cycles driving most thinking and feeling. It is hard, hard, work to reprogram yourself, but it's also natural: if you just don't feed the feedback or practice the reaction, then the reinforcement decays, and you discover you can experience sensations instead of emotional reactions and assessments. That can seem relatively (though briefly) liberating. You will find yourself more capable of changing your mind, and more interested in having a true sense of the world than in promoting your personal perspective/agenda/emotional-crisis.

Meditation will not make you more likable or marketable or powerful. If you want something out of it, you will get nowhere. It may destabilize your personality and your relationships, to the extent they depend on mutual "interests" that decay with meditation.

If you want to be alive, do it. Practice until you can at least go to a 10-day retreat. Daily/hourly meditation may be calming, but you won't experience the depths of your mind until it's all you do, every day, for more days than you can count.

To live is more important than success, work, education, or marriage (but perhaps not kids).

> “Inflation is being reported at 8.6%, but if you fill up the gas in your car, you know that it must be higher than that. No one knows the real rate of inflation, but what I do know is you cannot print more bitcoin. You can print dollars perpetually until it’s worthless like Venezuela, but you can’t print more bitcoin.”

What a silly comment inside just as silly of an article.
Last I checked, consumer fuel prices were absolutely included as components in most measures of price stability. The conclusion does not follow the premise in the slightest and demonstrates a poor grasp of macroeconomic fundamentals (i.e. inflation being a lagging metric of price change).
That said, it’s not as if bitcoin’s historical trends have shown any virtuous elements necessary for serving as a decent currency. Its volatility alone should lead all but the most deranged maximalists to shun it outright for any purpose other than market speculation.
