If by any chance you have not watched "Arcane" I very much recommend it.
Haven't seen much anime apart from the classics (cowboy bebop and the like) and never played League of Legends myself, but found Arcane's whole story, cinematography and action just riveting.
right now, they can't retain the people or afford the people to do this work. When you can go work elsewhere for more money you move. And, running a main frame isn't just having it, it's keeping the people running it, plus paying for the electricity and space.

Depending where, the real-estate and energy prices are nuts in most places. And, the engineers are expensive right now, and the services are cheaper.

It's not about giving it up, or change for the sake of change, it's about seeing the writing on the wall. These managers see the larger trends, rising energy costs, maintenance costs rising, hiring difficult, and retention of existing engineers impossible. Once you see those trends and a department is underwater and it's getting worse, you have to move. At another point in the market, when you may find engineers are less expensive, easier to hiring, technologies and space are less costly and easy to deploy. You move back.
You do have the option to choose. You can buy any number of Android phones, or you can jailbreak an iPhone with custom software.

Ultimately this will be bad for regular people, and good for crypto scammers, ad agencies, and companies that rely on hovering up personal data.
"It was fixed."

Sure, just like any human thing is fixed following that logic. USB as a standard was fixed. Elections are fixed by the voters. Anything's fixed but it also isn't. Because people can use any Bitcoin version they like. And they don't have to give their money to these exchanges. The only reason they have this power is that users gave it to them. Without the users and followers on social media, they'd be fixing into the void.

Insurance companies hire very smart actuaries... and thus currently use actuarial models. Actuarial models aren't perfect either. However, throwing them out to use one of these machine prediction models would almost certainly be a disaster for the insurance company. And there is currently a lot of competition for life insurance.
I think it is disingenuous to tell kids that. Learning to disregard others’ opinions of you is a skill learned with time. The best way to teach that skill is to instill a sense of self worth and high self esteem in kids. Words very obviously do hurt kids, so to tell them that words don’t hurt is to disregard their feelings at best and call them a liar at worst. Understanding the complex web of emotions felt in response to stimuli is a central part of growing up and not something you can shortcut with platitudes.

Yes. This is something I've been thinking about a lot, as it happens! In particular, one of the great benefits of pure languages from an optimisation standpoint is that unused values can always be optimised away, but this is not the case if we treat termination (or non-termination) as a side effect! For now, I'm treating it as not being a side-effect (as does C++, although C++ goes a step further and treats it as straight-up UB in certain conditions). This is something I've still yet to nail down semantically.
It will be interesting to see what dark patterns Apple will come up with to resist this. I imagine every time you open Firefox you will get a popup window saying "Do you want to use Safari instead?"
See that’s where I have a problem.

Spider-Man isn’t a series that says what would happen if a dude got spider powers and fought crime. It’s a story about a specific person, built around specific themes. Stories aren’t simulations.

Some people think that if a deconstruction work has characters die, because normally some people would die if they fight all the time, that it must be a realistic portrayal of what would happen. That’s false! It’s still a story and glossing over the boys it certainly doesn’t seem very different. It’s not a story about what would happen if superheroes were real and had too much power. It’s a story about some specific assholes mostly who have superpowers.

The real answer is that if people gained super powers, they would not start being superheroes to begin with.
Some of that App Store revenue comes from the EU BTW. Probably a quite sizable chunk of it.
The parser is very permissive. You don’t need the exact dialect upfront, it handles unknown udfs internally as anonymous funcs.

Storytelling, that's how. Which doesn't exist.

What you'll notice is that in better storytelling, there will be an explanation of why the hobbit can beat the giant spider. Outsmarting it, being invisible with a ring, whatever. Good storytelling means you make the impossible seem possible.

Now, all we have is token women who we all know are there because they are women, beating up men in ridiculously impossible ways, with no explanation of how. It's just that the writers want you to know that women are strong grrrrr. Because feminism. Well, it makes for terrible cinema.
On the contrary, I've met plenty of people who struggle along with a GUI because they don't want to learn the CLI. They mash fetch and pull rhymthically hoping it will do what they want with no clue what it's really doing underneath. Eventually, they give up, nuke the repo and reclone it. Most CLI users I've met are at least competent at using git.
I worked mainly in web dev for almost 2 decades now and having programmed both with Rust and Go, my vote would be to default for Rust, so I guess you everyone's mileage may vary.

Also the argument about the stdlib is kind of weird. It's a deliberate choice to keep the stdlib small, also because adding a new package to the projects takes a few seconds. If you were tasked to do a web backend with a limitation of "you can't use any external libraries" then yeah, I'd say Go might be easier, but otherwise there's almost no difference in practice
Not true, remote still pays 200k+/year in most cases. Company needs have not changed and the market is still hot.
Google-backed Glance to launch in US within two months
Why not looking into VB.net? I mean I know that Microsoft is trying to kill it so not sure it is a long term solution, though I would expect long term support even if you don’t get new features.

If you are familiar with VB6 there is not a lot of difference. Set keyword removed. All collection zero based instead of inconsistent 0 and 1 based. A null and empty string are two different things. Parameters are byval by default instead of byref by default. And you get lots of nice features: generic, linq, return keyword, try/catch, etc. Otherwise the syntax is the same, and winform also works in a very similar way.

I did the transition VB6 => VB.net => C# (the latter when VB got deprecated).
The rest of the article is just a listicle of wouldn't-it-be-cool-to-haves, so hard for that to have much credibility to start with

Is this adjusting for seniority? In-person only roles are overwhelmingly junior/associate level right now.
So, off the top oh my head, the:

- Regular school shootings;

- Teachers living in their cars;

- People being charged $8K if an ambulance picks them up after an accident;

- One of the highest proportions of the populace with cardiovascular problems and diabetic conditions;

- Incoming real estate bubble pop;

...does not give you a pause and make you think that maybe, just maybe, USA isn't as great as you think it is?

Empires don't fall overnight. The Roman Empire's history -- and the works of fiction based on it, one of which is Asimov's "Foundation" -- demonstrate that once certain positive forces vanish then the collapse becomes imminent BUT it does happen quite slowly, like a tumbling giant. This makes it easy for people to keep pretending that things are going great and everything else are just blips on the news.

(Until one day the courier carrying their package gets robbed and the company shrugs it off and says you won't get a refund. Then it will hit close to home and you'll start believing it, I presume.)

Also sticking to the view that the rest of the countries are worse off than USA is severely mistaken -- but as you said, at this point our perceptions of reality just differ too much indeed.
If you are going to go down the automation rabbit hole, I highly recommend looking at Node-RED. https://nodered.org/
There is something odd about the battery life on the Ikea motion sensor.

I use it in our bathroom and it's activated multiple times per day.
The first battery lasted about 3 months but the second battery has been going for over a year.

There are some reddit threads but I never got a clear answer.
Maybe because fully remote jobs tend to be more senior?

Many companies don't trust juniors to get productive without in-office supervision. There's more competition to hire experienced devs, and many of them ask for remote.
A house on the beach in South Africa (outside Cape Town) costs about that. Aztir[0] was a bit more but it's three bedrooms and I plan to spend Northern Hemisphere winters there to get two summers a year and rent it out to nomads the rest of the time. Second part of the plan is still a WIP so can't comment as to its success yet.

depends on the company really. some might think a bit more about offering their products to eu countries considering (some of) these rules. which imo are quite serious, and some even ridiculous.
You can turn off all notifications for unknown phone call numbers.

You can turn on do not disturb.

Solved problems.
I suspect the compliance will be as minimal as possible, e.g. uninstalling included junk will only flip some settings bit that hides some of the user facing activity. Just enough to make a glib "look, we obeyed the law" statement as they will assume nobody will actually take them to court over it.

Perhaps I am too pessimistic.
50k will barely cover sitework and utilities after buying the land, unless you plan on not having electricity/water/sewer or car access
All you can do (in the USA) is freeze your credit and sign up for one of the free (or paid) credit monitoring services. That only protects you from financial ruin though. Not sure about people using your credentials to commit fraud, fake birth certificates, etc.
Apple advances this argument all the time. Meanwhile most European use Android which allows side-loading and the predicted apocalypse didn’t actually happen. I know it’s annoying: this pesky reality showing to everyone that your argument is actually specious.
I like your platform. I was making a special service for recruitment at intel. Your task was to talk to its api, but this api would return inconsistent results, sometimes fail etc.

Now this was for me a typical day, dealing with some intranet service/app. Generally your job is to retry, figure out which endpoints offer more valid/up-to-data data etc. A lot senior engineers would either be lost or would halt and respond that the service needs fixing before any work can happen (they were aware that this service is buggy and its your task to deliver best effort results).
I'm personally very happy with Safari slowing down the over-arching progress of "Web browsers are an application distribution platform", but I definitely see the value in this.

I am very excited about the prospect of having federation between communication platforms... imagine sending messages from iMessage to whatsapp?! great, just like in the mid-00's!
Read the title again.
BTC Bitcoin is pure math. Digital gold. It came from the ether. The ticker as well.
I developed a couple of tools on top of git for various reasons. The problem I found is that many many developers don’t understand how git actually works, so they can’t translate git and what it actually does. I have to explain how git works over and over again. I think git is extremely good compared to everything else and it’s extremely simple yet advanced. But people don’t seem to understand what it actually does. Trying to replace it with something else is going to be hard as I believe that anything more advanced will be hard.
It's not loading, but... I guess that result might be biased by comparing local European companies (paying EU salaries, with all its variability between companies) versus American companies paying American or close to American salaries for their remote employees?

It would be interesting to compare EU full-office/hybrid/full-remote companies and the availability of EU vs USA full-remote positions.
Are you planning on having something similar to computation expressions? Altough, I guess thats basically covered within the do notation.

Best most forward thinking tech companies went remote. Old school companies with low pay and no growth want people in the office
This seems a case of correlation rather than any recent causal change (still relevant & interesting but worth noting): companies that paid more traditionally appropriately compensate & value their employees more and would thus be more likely to offer flexible / progressive work situations.

A particularly large divide I've seen "in the wild" is FAANG companies requiring contractors & vendor staff to be in-office while offering remote to their FTEs. This results in (traditionally lower-paying) vendors being forced by contract into full-office enforcement.

NIBUD recommends you make it for 6 months on savings (a lot of Dutch can't, but that's besides the point).
It’s a weird title…
Alternative phrasing: Full-office pays 52.6% of full-remote. Or "about half".
I honestly have no idea what message you’re trying to convey here…
fascinating insight in this report. For those who don't know Landing Jobs is the matching platform based in Portugal, tho with devs signing up from all over the world
Well, he could have given Hamilton the million dollars—or half, and donated his half to a worthy cause.
Second home financing can secured for 10% down. I think you could Airbnb it out to cover some costs, and it wouldn't be mortgage fraud as long as you use it yourself at least 10% of the time.

So one idea would be to put down $40k on a $400k property and hold at least $40k in cash as reserves just in case.

If you're open to Europe, some affordable cities with beaches include Valencia or Malaga in Spain, and Antalya in Turkey.
You should be learning how to do things with computers that you want to see done. For example, if there's anything in the way of software related to hotel-management that seems poorly done or just plain missing (just throwing an idea out there). Rarely does a person learn to program (or otherwise mess with computers) without having a project which has additional interest for them besides a means to a career. Also, if you are working on a project you actually want to see done, then it may be at the end that you decide you don't want to program for a living, but you have at least made a thing you wanted to see made.

By the way, I learned how to program in my early 30's.
The ADA ensures these things where people complain about them only.
That your commits are made locally, in a clone of the entire repository, is decentralized. Your local respiratory accrues history as divergent (and unbeknownst) from upstream as you'd like it to.

If you're going to collaborate in a decentralized way you ultimately need an accepted mainline source of truth.
Bodybuilders make progress though :)
Don't know if it will be bad. Apple still can make this securely. It doesn't mean that the system needs to be completely open, just that apps need to be able to access hardware features. NFC for example can be asked upon like GPS on the OS level. Doesn't mean that the apps need to access NFC on the direct hardware level.
And I don't want to have Android, but I would like for Apple to open up things like the forced browser engine stuff. With this Apple is blocking so much innovation for the web because they are not implementing so many things.
I took off my glasses and jumped 2.5 points. If it were measuring symmetry, that wouldn't happen.
> or you can jailbreak an iPhone

That's often not an option due to Apple's choices, but if Apple offered an official way to break out of the garden with your own iPhone then I think things wouldn't have gotten this far.
It seems unlikely that the US would allow two of its satellites to fight each-other.
Note that South Africa has significant power shortages right now so there was also an additional cost installing a backup power system. Of course, it is also higher risk than US/Western Europe in terms of future value.
How fast is the compiler? In many cases a report can just be syntactic sugar for compiling and running an accumulating log of source code lines. It’s not really important how it works under the hood as long as it’s mostly transparent to the user.

As a side effect, it might also be a good way to keep your compile times down.

you know this just means more chrome right?

> Messanger interop is also nice, when done right: basically would need a shared standard like the web that is done by a messaging consortium like the W3.

we went thru this before. didn’t work then, won’t work now.
That's not true in the slightest. In fact, it's far, far easier to make money now with the internet. You can build a tool and have millions of people use it instantly and there are far more ways to make $ than ever (creator economy).

Just look on twitter and you'll find loads of 20 year olds making 6 figures out of their college dorms with different kinds of internet products. I saw a thread yesterday from some 19 year old kid who makes $30k a month selling notion templates.

This all is totally possible to do if you're willing to spend 1-2 years learning how to do it. It's even easier to do if you're an engineer (you can rapidly iterate & develop new products)

You have an abundance of FAANG jobs that pay 6 figures and now many of these positions are being offered remotely. You just have to spend 3-4 months learning LeetCode stuff (yes, it's definitely a pain but it 100% beats wasting 2 years on an MBA or something).

Edit:

I'm not talking about everyone in the world. There are definitely billions of people in low-income countries in Africa/Asia who don't have these opportunities unfortunately.

This comment was meant more towards your average HN reader (technical background, living in a rich western nation, etc.) I thought that's who the OP was asking.
The funny thing is that every time it's reaches the frontpage, the HN rush will probably cause it to burn through the battery quite quickly.

Thankfully it's very sunny right now in Spain.

Someone, somewhere, has to actually buy the computers. "Only pay for what you use" isn't magic, whatever fraction actually gets used (across all customers) has to end up paying for the whole computer.

Taxis are "only pay for what you use", but owning your own car is often cheaper (even if you only use it, what, 1/12 of the day?) and more convenient.
I've been a TryHackMe user for a while and have been really liking them so far. For those that have used both that and HTB, is one better than the other?
Because company only willing to offer remote to harder to get talents, who happen to be paid higher?

Correlation vs Causation, here we go again
They usually don't. Juniors who get productive remotely very fast are already usually top few% of juniors. Being "average" junior fresh after university is way harder remotely.
Probably not AWS, given that Amazon is a major competitor to FedEx in the logistics sector.
How do you pay “1.9x less”?

Also paying more for remote employees makes sense. I literally just told people “I want a salary matching in-person employment and fully remote” when applying for jobs ~8 months ago.

My resume and track record proved my ability and the remote was another perk. If I was junior I’d probably want to go in and / or wouldn’t have that negotiating power.
Edit: It is clear that I was an idiot with this comment and my facts are quite wrong. Removed.
> Full-office jobs are the most poorly paid (1.9x less than full-remote jobs). The differences can be very significant, and a hypothesis to support this may be because less competitive companies are less inclined for remote work, consequently losing attractiveness to the best tech professionals, and hurting their competitiveness even more. A speculation, but worth debating. The fact that North America is the only region paying less to Full remote than to Hybrid remote is also curious. If you have guesses on reasons for this, please reach out.

My thought would've been they adjusted for commute time and costs to arrive at that number but it appears they did not. Factoring for that you can safely say remote work pays twice as much. I'd be curious what the delta in NA is between office and remote.
>All of this adds cost but can add a few decades of life.

The cruel irony, though, is that you now have several decades in which to potentially come down with cancer, Alzheimer's, or other illnesses associated with old age that are even more costly to treat.
So we just need to lift the measurement equipment into the upper atmosphere and wait :D
"Apologist to a megacorp", either argue your case against or hold the veiled insults. Parent made a reasonable argument to give an alternate explanation, perhaps you can, too.
WebRTC is peer-to-peer so there's no additional network latency from the protocol. There's the TURN fallback for when the participants can't reach each other, in which case bouncing through a proxy is the best you can do anyway.

(If some implementations have high processing latency on top of the network latency, this can be fixed without changing the protocol).
