Yeah... most large companies definitely need more testers running common adblockers like ublock or pihole with the default list.

Of course, worse still is the clear misses on WCAG for visibly impaired... or people like me who max out text and content size on their phones... really pisses me off to no end when a modal + buttons are off screen with no ability to zoom or scroll the modal dialog. First two things I check when trying a new ui framework, is how does that modal interaction work, and what does the calendar/time interface look like.
I agree RSS is not designed work comments in mind and probably shouldn't be redesigned to support them. ActivityPub is a more suitable, federated way to support comments.

> I would consider myself a "creationist", in that I believe than human beings were created by God [...]

How is this definition of "creationist" any different than that of "Christian"?

Why overload the word "creationist" with a meaning that is equivalent to "Christian"?

> The people I believe you're referencing are usually called "Young Earth Creationists".

Century Dictionary (1897) defines creationism in this sense as "The doctrine that matter and all things were created, substantially as they now exist, by the fiat of an omnipotent Creator, and not gradually evolved or developed." [...] Creationist (n.) in an "anti-Darwin" sense is attested by 1859 in a letter of Darwin's, and it is said to be used in Darwin's unpublished writings as far back as 1842.

It seems "Old Earth Creationism" either predates Darwin, or it's a more recent attempt to namesquat.

Funny thing is, they started the surveillance in late-2001 to suck all the records up. Where did they get the computers and storage devices to do that all at once? They must have been installing equipment for months or years, especially since I am pretty sure they even built a new data center on Fort Mead for it around that time. Now, this is 2001, when building a datacenter didn't just involve spinning up 1000 AWS EC2's and opening the spigot to S3, so this type of thing would have taken some time.

So the question is: did they pass a law to allow data collection because of 9/11 and other attacks, or did they pass a law because they wanted the NSA to be able to collect this data using computer systems they had been planning for years, and used those attacks as a pretext?
Did they control for marriage and divorce? Maybe religious people are just more likely to marry and remain married when older. Lonely elderly people are at increased risk of death, as loneliness increase risk of mental disease and death from disease and accidents, when nobody is around to call help
Yeah, elites really feel like a sort of “Schroedinger’s enemy”. If people oppose the argument you can claim that they’re standing up for billionaires who don’t care about them and don’t need their support. If the reception is friendly it might turn out that the “elites” are actually middle class college activists who are “elite” because they went to college.

Like, some people’s definitions are so warped that a millionaire small business owner (think someone who owns a successful downtown restaurant in a mid-sized city) is “the common man” while an artist who works at a coffee shop and lives in a rundown studio apartment is somehow “elite”.
> You hit a top level endpoint, and then at that point other endpoints are made manifest, and then the UA/client and the user decide together what the next relevant endpoint is.

That's not how APIs are used. APIs consume and provide data. Raw data is unsuitable to be presented to the user. That's why HTML has so many formatting options. Formatting information is completely missing from APIs.

> Seems to have worked more or less for 30 years.

Yes, worked for good old web. In this sense, true REST is nothing new and even seems backwards. If we try to do REST while keeping data and presentation separate, we will come to something very similar to XML for data + XSLT for formatting. Or XForms. Old ideas all over again.

> I don't understand that, actually. Markup is underrated for data exchange potential these days.

XML/markup does not map well to basic data types in current programming languages. These work with strings, ints, floats and arrays/dictionaries thereof. Not Nodes, Elements and attributes of unknown/variant data types.

EXACTLY. Regurgitators of the HATEOAS mantra never address this. Instead you get statements like one in this article:
"the HTML response "carries along" all the API information necessary to continue interacting with the system directly within itself."

No, it doesn't. It's a list of URLs, which doesn't even indicate what operations they accept. The only thing REST supports, according to this philosophy, is a user manually traipsing through the "API" by clicking on stuff.

Thanks for summing it up so succinctly; I thought maybe I was missing something.

There are ethical concerns about abortion - eg whether knowingly giving birth to a sick child is ethical - but the part that’s being discussed isn’t ethically complicated at all. It’s the same situation as with anti-vaxers - on one side there’s a clear consensus, and the other side is a coordinated stupidity, in this case the Church.

To have a proper abortion debate we first need to get rid of political correctness. We need to stop pretending that certain religions are anything more than fairy tales and that they “deserve respect”.

When I was a Python dev, I never saw that happen in ten years or so of work. Pip freeze and virtualenv just worked for me.

I will say, though, that this only accounts for times where you’re not upgrading dependencies. Where I’ve always run into issues in Python was when I decided to upgrade a dependency and eventually trigger some impossible mess.

Like just a single word? Why wouldn't that be trivially brute forceable? Since you don't care exactly where the content comes from, why not just use some sort of public key system? There wouldn't be much chance of a MITM in this particular instance and it would simplify things for the user.

If I were starting over, I would probably push for Google Chat. It was such a chore getting my workmates to switch to Slack from email, that I don't want to disturb the delicate balance. That said, Google Chat has less integrations and I don't trust Google to keep products around.

Besides the price, Google Meet is miles better than Slack video chat. I know most people just pay for Zoom, but for those of us that are stuck in Slack calls, Meet is a huge improvement.

I wonder if there is a tool to migrate all public messages from Slack to Google Chat?
> Hell, what's wrong with a phone call?

You have to remember to take notes.

I hate going to find something in Slack history and seeing a phone call right around where I think important information may have been conveyed. At best, I have to go look other places to find it. At worst, there's nothing. And since I may not have been on the call, it may not even be possible for me to have notes, short of bugging the people who participated and hoping they took notes.

This even goes for personal stuff. I much prefer when my wife sends me important info via chat (not Slack, in this case) rather than calling, unless it's super time-sensitive, for basically the same reason.

Email evades the objection to calls, sure, but I've yet to see an email client that doesn't suck for low-friction multiparty chat. Yes, including gmail. I'm pretty sure this could be solved by a client, but I've not seen it, and I think part of the problem is having to accommodate other clients' default quoting behavior and threading and such, so it may be something that could technically be solved by a good client, but couldn't in fact be solved by a client.
That implies that if a better alternative to VS came along, C# developers wouldn't choose it! I certainly would, for one, and I'm a long-term VS user, well aware of its failings (but also yet to come across another IDE that's noticeably superior. And coding with a text editor and command line compiler is something I spent 10+ years doing when it was all that was available, and nothing I have any great hankering to go back to - even if it's something I still resort to as an emergency measure, e.g. when on some remote system with text-only access etc.)
Its not a mess, people just make it a mess because of the lack of understanding around it, and getting lazy with using a combination of pip install, apt install, and whatever else. Also, the problem is compounded by people using Mac to develop, which have a different way of handling system wide python installs from brew, and then trying to port that to Linux.

I'm a huge, long time, python fan. I don't tend to have a lot of problems with dependencies, but it clearly is something that certain situations have problems with.

As I understand the post, the author is saying "It sure is nice to be able to just hand off a go executable and be done with it." And I think we can agree that the Python runtime situation is far from this.

I largely control my work environment, so this isn't a huge issue for me. But I'm right at this very moment converting a "python" to "python3" in a wrapper script because the underlying code got converted to py3 and can't "import configparser". (Actually, I'm removing "python" entirely and adding a shebamg).

I've been looking at writing a small tool in Python and then porting it to Go (I don't know go, so seems like a reasonable way to approach it), because the main target of the app is my developers, who probably don't have the right Python environment set up, and I just want them to be able to use it, not give them a chore.

I think there’s a lot of disagreements about what people think is desirable in a language in the first place and then start complaining without understanding the design concepts that shaped its creation nor even agree the problems are even problems to begin with. Many even seem to think that bad ergonomics are to be accepted and want to create a higher barrier for programming productivity (there are some merits to this attitude honestly but that’s not the point I’m interested in).

I think it’s more akin to trying to talk to people about Quentin Tarantino movies. Lots of people enjoy them, many critics like his stuff, and then there’s a relatively small group of people that disparage everything he does because he isn’t ascribed to any artistic school of filmmaking and under a lot of such critical analysis his films are pop fodder. It’s not like he ever makes his movies to please critics is the thing, he’s basically a super fan that just winged it all. Many fairly sane and measured, learned critics “get” Tarantino and appreciate him for what he tries to do and all is fine there. But it won’t matter what Tarantino does going forward with the other crowd - it’s because they have diametrically opposed ideas of wtf movies even are supposed to be.

"Honestly I think this is obvious to anyone who is not financially motivated to think otherwise." which implies that the interviewer and the economist are acting in good faith and are not financially motivated to push certain ideas.

"The biggest problem is the rich have created a system in which people's future (retirement) is basically linked to "the market" growing over their lifetime." ah so trade and supply/demand that are moved by "standard persons" = rich people, ah yes.

"This system of course is built 100% on governments/employers not wanting to guarantee financial security of elders and offload the risk to the individual." great idea, have people at governments mercy and build a voter block that is going to put the tick where they're going to be told to for some of that extra pension plan dough.

"...the rich benefit insanely more by market movements than a standard person does..." while also contributing the most tax revenue...
Engineer turned programmer in the UK. I put the salary discrepancy down to the ease with which I can move jobs. In programming I can bounce around different companies every couple of years in the same city. In engineering things are so frequently sub-industry and even employer specific. If you’re the only person that can operate a company’s machinery that’s great, but if that machinery is unique to that company that doesn’t mean you can get employment elsewhere.
This is a strong overview of the leading contenders for the "modern Heroku" that come up often on HN and twitter for the best available platform as a service.

I believe that when looking at this space in 2022, you have to consider the burgeoning "Heroku in your own cloud" space that includes companies doing devops automation, mostly using kubernetes in AWS. I also think you have to look at how the deployment platform fits into the life of building and deploying an app, things like dev environments, testing, CI/CD, and collaboration.

One option I'd love the author to compare to these platforms is Coherence (disclosure - I"m a cofounder) - which goes from dev to deployment in a production-ready way, from Cloud IDEs to automated full-stack branch environments and UI for release/observability on a dashboard. We do this in your own cloud, today we support GCP with AWS coming soon.

Not really, half retired Americans live off Social Security alone, and another big chunk I'm guessing a quarter rely on it. Many others have property, business or keep working. I'm guessing its about 10-20% of Americans really have enough 401k savings to live off.
It seems as if compassion and empathy are orthogonal to brilliance. I hear enough stories that fall on both ends of the spectrum (tech founders appear to lean asshole, but amongst Nobel prize winners, I feel it's more balanced) that I don't think there's any correlation between the two.
I think you're right.

It's my suspicion that eventually software engineers will be paid the same as copy writers and scientists. But not yet.
I think it's becoming increasingly apparent that there's not much difference between "Big Tech" and "Big Government." As this article makes clear, they have a symbiotic relationship with each other. Big Tech makes money from Big Government, which uses Big Tech to get around restrictions on what it's allowed to do on its own.

Yes. It used to be that tech companies built tech products and were run by engineers, that's what tech meant. It was glorious and I loved every second.

Now "tech" companies aren't really, they are actually in the advertising business or other forms of data gathering, movies, shopping, etc. All of which uses tech but isn't tech. So very boring.

And as you say then PMs took over from engineering and engineering has been reduced to a fast-food order cook with little to no agency, just bolt the right ingredients (or AWS components) together and give status reports every day. That's not creative engineering anymore.

Firebase just feels like the ultimate vendor lock-in though.

I really like the Azure Storage (Tables, Blobs, Queues) myself.. for small-mid usage, super cheap, simple, easy to completely replace if needed. Some of the more advanced stuff, seems like stuff to keep C-suite or SecOps people impressed.
uaarch64 has very little legacy stuff left.

When ARM announced A715, they got rid of uaarch32 and said it got them a 75% reduction in the size of the decoder while increasing the width of the decoder from 4 to 5-wide. They even got rid of the uop-cache because the new encoding was so much smaller and efficient that it didn't make sense to keep it around.

Small footprint IoT device, we get the custom designed PCB’s shipped in and most of our BoM is generic off the shelf stuff that is already available on Alibaba/AliExpress.

Soldering is custom ordered overseas where possible and hand soldered when not.

The Buster Beagle was a real game changer in this space, though if your parts are really small there are other even cheaper options.

The goal is to, as you say, prove the prototype and then get a larger dedicated space.
