The dispute OP has, which I also share, is with this statement:

>I don't know why people seem to be so incredulous/outraged at my observation.

No one is incredulous or outraged by anything you said. You pointed out that you saw a lot of inappropriate pictures, some people seem to agree, some disagree, but no one is outraged.
If everyone is under-performing nobody is. Having a metric that basically everyone fails to meet is no more useful for dodging accusations of illegally discriminatory firing than not having the metric at all is.

But that's the point, it doesn't matter what your mindset is. If a person's name is *a*, and you refuse to call them *a* because it's easier for you, then a lot of times that's offensive to people. Adding Gandalf and your opinion on how cool it is to try to downplay the disrespect doesn't change anything.

I've gone through almost 3 decades at this point with people either pronouncing my name wrong even after I've corrected them dozens of times (or they do it on purpose), or calling me an American name. It's tiring and the American one specifically is super offensive

It’s as reasonable a measure as any of the level of effort / output in a work, so yes it’s common in short stories and magazine pieces afaik. I’ve heard of rates anywhere from 10 cents to a dollar per word depending on genre and publication.

Generally you’ll be given a size to fit within, so it’s not like you can go Dickens on it and crank up the word count to cover your rent.
Push back. If upper management only allows you to build rushed badly-documented hard-to-maintain tech-debt-ridden software, if upper management doesn’t care about the user but only about maximizing margins, change jobs. Do you really want to spend your working life churning out crap software?

Sorry about the hyperbole, but caving in to bad incentives is what brought us into that situation in the first place. Upper management couldn’t build anything if not for the software engineers.
That’s a discharge rate of only 22.4C; Most LiPo packs can do 30C for 1 minute as long as it’s mounted to a metal plate or has good ventilation. So yes, almost certainly.

There is no suggestion of compulsion in my comment. I’m asking that people stop hurting their fellow authors by participating in a race to the bottom, simply because they’re flattered that a for-profit corporation is willing to take their product for essentially no compensation. This has nothing to do with contributing to open-source software, working for nonprofits for a social good, etc. I do all those things. But if a business or a startup with dollar signs in their eyes wants to consult with me, or publish my work, they’re going to pay. And it’s unethical to give away your work under these circumstances.

Although I have sympathy for libertarian points of view, I think that minimum wage laws are important. Without them, you have a race to the bottom for wages for unskilled labor, resulting in widespread suffering. We don’t have minimum wage laws for writers or freelance programmers, so we have to depend on our personal ethics. Please stop giving away your product.
Ask HN: Good pub/sub setup for personal projects?
I’m messing around with a single node k8s homelab I’m running for fun side projects and micro service development.

I’ve done a lot of work with Kafka, but it’s pretty heavy and I really just want a decent pub/sub queue setup between services that would be somewhat reliable.

Is there anything you’d recommend? Open to thoughts on just using Postgres as a queue as well.
> there's only so much time people can spend consuming entertainment, and so the market for it is somewhat fixed.

It's even worse than that, actually. Because existing entertainment can still be consumed long after its produced, and even consumed more than once by the same person. When you write a book today, you aren't just competing with other new novels, you're competing with every novel written all the way back to Robinson Crusoe.

Scala only does single method tail recursion and rewrites it into a while loop. Cats and other libraries use a technique called trampolining which basically moves the frames to the heap (or a mixed technique where they do recurse a certain depth on the stack before switching to trampolining).

Great point. Find a niche (or a few) that really interests you and is underserved.

I used the word ‘underserved’ for another reason. About 30 years ago I realized that I only was competing with myself and that everything I did should be in the service of other people or whatever company was paying me for my time. Framing everything as service to others takes away anxiety and fear of failure. Anyway that is how I see it.

I do run a kubernetes cluster outside work as a side project and it hardly takes me more than 2 hours per month. It mostly run cloud instance of my open source software for customers and is saving a lot of time compared to the manual process of creating dns manually, rp rules for everyone, handling of SSL, monitoring, ... Just to think about the work that would be required to get all this done outside kubernetes makes me sweat and the maintenance aspect of such a solution would make it even worse.
I think you're forgetting to factor in the distance.

Say, a low-power, high-speed interface which is USB 3.2 only works via good copper cables and at distances of a few meters.
> 2. Debugging exclusively via metrics and logs, since I can't just attach a debugger to a running server.

I’m not sure this is really a difference between kernel and backend service development. You can run the server on a dev machine, attach a debugger, and reproduce the bug. If your problem is you can’t reproduce the bug, you may encounter the same issue when working on the kernel. If someone reports a kernel bug, you may not be able to attach a debugger to their computer, so you will need to reproduce it.
WordPress has hooks to allow pointing the uploads location to a different directory, which you can combine with PHP stream wrappers to have a virtual filesystem.

And prior to Dobbs the US was part of a small handful of countries that guaranteed the “right” to kill humans that had developed a face, feet, hands, and could suck their thumbs.

Abortion law requires balancing individual autonomy against a nascent human life. It’s not an issue where “progress” marches in a single direction. That’s why considering the actual legal effect of Dobbs is critical. We replaced a regime that imposes a nationwide viability standard that the majority of Americans oppose (see the second chart: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/23167397/abortion-pu...) with the same regime that applies in Europe: voters decide.

Yes, the US has more parts that resemble Poland than the EU does. But, on the flip side, the Mississippi law upheld in Dobbs reflects the mainstream view in large European countries: elective abortion in the first trimester, with certain exceptions applying after that.

With immutable objects, aren't you just left with syntactic sugar around structs and functions? I'm picturing CLOS, which is undoubtedly an OO system but lacks 100% of what you use objects for. Are there languages which let you use dot-syntax for "methods" which just wrap normal functions?
An experienced gyroplane pilot shows off some remarkable moves.

Stall/spin recovery demo was educational...

I hadn't considered that a gyroplane would spin at all; I guess I assumed you'd get it flat and auto-rotate, where the air flowing through the vertical-lift rotor as it descends causes it to windmill, generating a lot of drag and hopefully some lift. You'd hit the ground harder than you might like, but would leave a smaller hole in the ground than a stalled-out brick.

For a brick, or an aircraft totally full stall, air moving over the control surfaces is too turbulent, or just too slow, to generate enough force to control the aircraft. Not only have you lost lift, you can't do much about it but hope to catch an opportunity in the resulting chaotic tumble to push you back towards controlled flight.

General-aviation aircraft designers spend a lot of time on stall and spin recovery behavior. I've flown in little planes with really forgiving spin a recovery. Even so, with a super experienced flight instructor, we practiced stall recovery with way more altitude than the pilot performing this remarkable demonstration.

I wonder what that gyroplane spin feels like!
> which seems to be that people have taken the surface level of Buddhist religious practice while tossing out all the parts that make it meaningful to the interviewee

I agree this is happening. Why is this an intrinsically bad thing? It seems to me to be just how cultural exchanges work. An idea comes, parts of it are kept, others removed, and others modified. Why is stripping an idea of it’s “original meaning” ( I don’t think that exists) and changing it, even beyond recognition an intrinsically bad this?

> I’m imagining how I would feel if my company hosted prayer sessions where you speak to your unconscious mind rather than God and the sign of the cross represents the intersection of personal and professional responsibilities

I’m going to assume the comment means “I imagine how I would feel experiencing a twisted version of christianity”. Under that assumption, the answer would be the same way a conservative christian feels when seeing a church displaying the gay flag. Just like you in the hypothetical scenario, they feel weird.

Are you as sympathetic to the conservative christian as you are to the traditional buddhist? After all, in both cases, “surface level of religious practice while tossing out all the parts that make it meaningful to the person” seems to apply.
Whatever people find it useful for. Anyone can send in a proposal; a committee picks as many of them as will fit into a workable schedule. IIRC the schedule is publicly available, so you can go look up what it will be used for if you want. Don't have a link handy.

Steve Jobs and John Sculley, then PepsiCo president, were sitting on a balcony overlooking New York’s Central Park. Jobs turned to Sculley and said, “Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life or come with me and change the world?”

Ask HN: Are there IC Engineers who earn 1MM per year or more?
I was working at a FAANG for the last ~10 years and just moved to a late stage startup. I've realized while I'm immensely fortunate work at a FAANG and enjoy it, I was still underpaid for my role and contributions. At my new gig, it's very clear that people who joined 2 years before me will be soon clearing upwards of 5 MM when this company IPOs. I first hand know of people at places like Snowflake and Doordash.

My questions are - What are some of companies and positions where Software Engineers in an IC role are earning 1 MM? What roles should I be targeting Sr Principal / Sr Staff? If you are this person, what do you think helped you in your career to get there?

PS: I understand devs at FAANGs are some of the highest developer. This isn't a question about the ethics of how much money is enough. People have different thresholds and I respect your decision.

PPS: I understand IPOs aren't guaranteed, market forces are at work, we're in a very different financial market. Yes, given all these people still will be clearing that much money.
A lot of games, particularly the "massively multiplayer" ones, don't actually do much on the server. The clients are authoritative for their characters, running the simulation, and the server just relays the serialized state to other clients. They rely on anti-piracy software (kernel DRM modules) to avoid cheating. In that situation replacing the server is easy.

For games where the server is doing the work and clients are just thin frontends which don't even know all the rules, it is basically impossible.

> Lots of popular musicians, for instance, from very humble economic backgrounds.

Lots of musicians from humble backgrounds, but not as many popular ones today as there used to be. A lot of musicians that get big these days often have a narrative around them of coming from limited means (and some actually do) but if you dig, you often find that most had some family connection or something that massively increased the odds of their winning the popularity lottery.

> Athletes as well

Athletes don't quite apply to my model. You might think it's because their primary job is not producing digital media but winning games, but that's not true. Money flows into professional sports in large through people watching games. Sponsorships are very important too, but those trail the athlete's popularity. The athlete is essentially selling some of the popularity they have already garned through media of their games.

I think the main reason there is always a market for young skilled athletes (in sports that are popular to watch) is simply because there is almost no market for watching old games. Unlike novels, music, etc., virtually no one watches older games. So where in other forms of media, you are competing against a constantly growing corpus of existing content, in sports, the content evaporates quite quickly and needs constant refreshing.

(This might suggest that the path to success in other forms of media is by deliberately creating extremely timely content. "Here's a new song about things that happened on July 12, 2022!")
Do you honestly think that the news should give more attention to the current president's son fucking up in an as-of-yet-to-be-determined-importance way versus an actual congressional hearing about our former president inciting an insurrection against the capitol?

Taxes are the biggest thing. Being a US citizen, you must always file taxes, but not necessarily pay them all. FEIE, and tax reciprocity are available depending on where you live and how long you are gone.

"Height growth disorder" literally exists. Here's a Yale Medicine page talking about the treatment options for short stature: https://www.yalemedicine.org/conditions/short-stature-child

Tonal Mismeasurement Disorder doesn't exist, but several conditions where that's a symptom such as autism do exist.

Medicine also has concepts like high/blow blood pressure, being underweight/normal weight/overweight/obese, we talk about an "obesity epidemic". I won't get into if it's correct for us to do this, but it's certainly possible for us to describe things that are on a spectrum as being some sort of disease or condition, and most of these are to some extent socially grounded E.G. if you're on a desert island being overweight doesn't seem so bad anymore. I don't see any reason we couldn't prescribe steroids for low testerone levels, since we already do, there's TRT.

It's not necessary to identify a binary mechanism for disease to call something a disease. We just call somebody being really shit at paying attention having "ADHD" and give them some amphetamines and it seems to have societal benefit compared to not giving anybody amphetamines so we keep with it. I'm a little sceptical we have things quite right but this approach seems okay.
Astronomy, probably.

JWST can't see the same wavelengths of light. There's some overlap in near-infrared, but JWST doesn't see shorter wavelengths.

Lots of astrophysical processes will still be better explored with Hubble.

Even if JWST is just better all around for a whole class of observation, there are always more good proposals than available telescope time.

And there are always dynamic events to be observed, that nobody could predict.

The great thing about astronomy: for every fundamentally new discovery that requires a multi-billion-dollar spacecraft, there's another fundamental discovery waiting for a careful observer on the ground.

Hubble gave us some great views of a comet hitting Jupiter, but never would have been looking there if it wasn't for the dedicated search of ground-based comet hunters. Who needed thousands of observations, hundreds of hours, to see it coming.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_Shoemaker–Levy_9

And it's not just the pros. Anyone has a chance to contribute significant new science. I know professional astronomers who got lucky one night, way back as undergraduates. Just happened to be there, and to know enough to notice something worth digging into.

Great question!
