And if one is not good at self promotion, invest some dollars in professionals writing pitches, see what works.

Often people sink a lot of money into attendance and then get there with improvised messaging - today is super easy to delegate everything and boost one chances

People might be familiar with Google analytics and ab testing and whatnot and then forget everything about it in different verticals just because they don't do the connection.

I have done that in a recent search for a rental apartment, I went from the initial one answer/week into two scheduled appointments/day just by tuning first contact messaging and was top of the pick in the unit I eventually rented thanks to reaching out with a professional. Total cost was 350€ which I'll get back into a few month as I could land a highly sought aftar apartment which was under budget for the zone/quality.

It's the same basic stuff we do on the job - branch out, measure outcome, refine, repeat. No need to be good at selling oneself, it just need time and delegation.

What Rust web libraries/frameworks do you use and recommend?
How long does your Rust project take to compile?

Rust has a stable ABI actually, it's called the C ABI. But since most Rust crates do rely on monomorphized generic code in many ways, it's just not possible to share binary artifacts in the first place. (The situation is similar for "header only" libraries in C++.) If you're writing a library that truly does not involve generic code, it makes total sense to expose it via a pure C interface anyway so that languages other than Rust can make use of it.

Then they're lying to you. Unless you're on a completely separate power grid, your energy is, in reality, provided by the power source closest to you. It might be solar or wind sometimes, but the rest of the time it's probably a non-renewable source.

German companies claiming to get their energy through renewable sources are primarily buying credits from Norway and a few other sources in Europe.

You can stick your head in the ground and pretend all of the electricity you use is being generated by renewable resources, but as long as plants in Germany are producing power using coal and natural gas, it means you're using that energy.
Slack became popular via community slacks, which the company always stated they were willing to tolerate but not interested in supporting. I don't think that qualifies as bending/breaking rules so much as repurposing. Slack still tolerates community slacks but has set precedent for setting hard limits on user counts, which has led to many community slacks migrating to Discord instead.

If anything, Slack benefitted from community slacks until they outlived their usefulness and then Discord benefitted from the influx of new users. They definitely took notice at the time and added features new users had been used to from Slack.

If a Stripe employee has $100,000 worth of RSUs and leaves Stripe now, what happens to their RSUs?

Stripe has double-trigger RSUs which won't vest until after IPO.

Do they get to keep these RSUs until after the IPO + lockup period, even though they're not employed at Stripe anymore? (Is there another name for RSUs owned by someone not employed by a company anymore? e.g. unvested shares?)

Ask HN: What Windows laptop do you use and recommend?
Apple is currently blowing all the Windows laptops out of this world. I'm currently M1 Macbook Air owner, but I've always been a Windows user my whole life and I really miss my muscle memory and other stuff that Windows offers.

The thing is, going back to a Windows laptop after my M1 Macbook Air is like a night and day, Windows laptops are just terrible in comparison. I own two Thinkpads: T590 (work provided) and T480s (personal before MBA) and their screens suck (16:9 as well), trackpads are terrible, fans are obnoxious and they get warm.

But I can't get used to Mac OS and I want Windows back, any recommendations?

My main concerns are:

- Screen, atleast bright, but 16:10 would be lovely

- Does not get hot or too loud when doing normal tasks
> Randomness is hard.

Yes. And might I say everything has a statistical bias. Picking people for an experiment is not like throwing dice

Your sample will always be biased, and it would be crazy to try and get a random sample from "the world". (and even then you have temporal bias - you can't run your experiments on people from the XIX century)

I never could understand the appeal of later Worms games, Scorched Earth was far superior. It has some minor flaw in it's economy: winning player had so much more money to spend on equipment, that it was very hard for a loser of a round to ever catch up, even with a far superior shooting.

qutebrowser used to use QtWebKit back in 2013, but doesn't use it anymore by default ever since its v1.0.0 release in 2017.

Ever since then, it uses QtWebEngine, which is based on Chromium. You can still use it with QtWebKit (at least until the upcoming v3.0.0 release), but that's mostly for historical reasons - I really can't recommend it, as QtWebKit is still based on a WebKit from 2016 and pretty much dead.

This has really started to annoy me on the Apple News app. Hover over a section of headlines without touching the phone for too long and suddenly it claims there are new stories up top, but if you click on that, they're just lying. Gotta make sure there is nonstop "engagement" with the touchscreen. None of that pesky reading, thinking, and introspecting when consuming information. Better not talk to the person sitting next to you about what you're reading, either, unless they're also using an app that can find a way to measure their interest in what you're talking about.

I goes to the miners or in this case, stakers. Balance is just need that to 'publish' torrents (because the network charges for modifications) but not to search or download them.
The ultimate perpetrator in this example is to have more than one positional (i.e. unnamed) boolean parameter. Even having a single positional boolean is a lot of the time bad design. I'm aware of one piece of (JS) software (https://chevrotain.io/docs/) whose entire API is (apparently) built on the principle that each method accepts a single argument (an object with key/value pairs) and returns a single value (of the same shape). Personally, I try to somewhat keep to the first part of that pattern, but don't quite manage to—quite a few methods have very obvious mandatory, first parameters that I then often accept as positionals as in `f = ( image, cfg ) => ...`.

In this particular example, though, one might argue that picture data may be communicated in many different ways: as an URL, an FS path, a buffer, a stream...; question is: do you really want your `resizeImage()` method to read from the network or from the file system? I'd say that this is probably in violation of the principle of separation of concerns. The best choice for the first, mandatory argument is probably a stream of octets in this case, and when you can't be 100% sure, then indeed the way to design such an interface is to first constrain the method to accept a single object (dictionary) of properly named values, and at first only implement `{ stream: ..., width: ..., height: ..., ..., }`. Later on, when the software has shown it's up to the task, it will almost always be possible to introduce new parameters (say, `path` and `url`, all exclusive with `stream`), and, if need be, allow `resizeImage stream, { width: ..., ..., }` as a variant.

Fizzy Change: The Sounds of Fermentation (2021)
I've seen pretty much zero grandstanding in the Rust community about the CoC. They seem to treat it as any CoC should be treated in practice; a failsafe measure which is most critical for in-person events, and to protect people who make their real-world identity public from aggressive trolling and malicious behavior.
For me, it's about having a stable platform for something; not all (or even most) components in a software system benefit at all from following the latest releases, and what "stable" distributions give me is the ability to keep those components up-to-date security-wise very easily and without having to worry that everything could explode due to major changes when I run "dnf update" (breakage does happens, but it's rare). I can have hundreds of hosts auto-patching themselves and still sleep soundly.

Something also needs to run your Kubernetes, and that can't always be AWS.
they could have removed all the line breaks. Yes, you can do it in fewer lines!
I tried to avoid bloat as much as possible, and I would argue that the non-transitive deps are pretty essential. I'l look into tweaking some features as suggested in sibling to trim it further down.

But you're right that it could always be simpler, in fact I wrote tere originally in C with curses as the only dependency, and it compiles >10x faster. But there I had to manually write some (pretty certainly buggy) unicode handling, and I think adding extra features (proper arg parsing, json for history file etc) would be way more painful.
I'm blown away at the quality of the readme :-)

This feels a lot like Vim's built in file explorer (netrw).

I find these kinds of text based, keyboard centric explorers to be far superior for navigating around a codebase, then giving you back your screen space as soon as you're found what you're looking for.

Not even an abstract available
> Nobody but programmers gives a damn what width their memory bus is. How can you possibly imagine otherwise?

Ideally, yes. Practically, abstractions leak.

A NES is Turing Complete, so can theoretically do anything. Practically it's much better suited to some tasks than others, which is why you're not going to see one play 4K video, and everything you see will be made of 8x8 or 8x16 blocks with a limited color palette.

Consumers get wind of this and even if they don't understand very well what a data bus is they do get overall idea that more bits -- roughly more functionality. That's why there's a huge enthusiast segment discussing various hardware stats with gusto, even if they can't actually explain what's the technical difference between DDR3 and DDR4.

This happens everywhere. Theoretically, a car gets you from A to B, it doesn't matter much how. Practically, lots of people care about whether a car is electric or an ICE, because the difference between them can't be entirely abstracted.
What I have always wondered about is why heavier-than-air flight was not invented earlier? Or put it this way: when was the folded paper (or your material here) airplane invented, and by whom? Then, why not make it bigger?

Ok so like… think about telcos vs say, whatsapp. WhatsApp is sip, it uses srtp, the whole 9 yards. It works way better than telcos… BUT!!! It rides over telco rails.

This is the dirty truth. What we think of as telco is evolving. Telco is desperately trying not to be a “dumb pipe”, but that’s exactly what the internet wants the base layer to be. When the base layer is opinionated, bad things happen, like net neutrality.

What we want is unbiased fast networks that route data indiscriminately as long as it is correctly formatted and sent from a known address. That’s it.

Everything else is just vanity.

Lockdown was helpful in blunting the peak(s), purely based on hospitalization, with the additional curve ball that we had to predict hospitalization because it was a lagging indicator.

The problem with politics is that it’s rarely made of binary issues, and yet the voting experience so often is. But the democratic process of the US (and to some extent the UK) is that inevitably two parties will appear, and this sort of forces this broad-church experience, smushing it all into one “left and right” axis [0].

Even if we smush things onto an axis, the Overton window of people’s views [1] can probably be approximated as a bell curve, and so it stands to reason that the Republicans, too, are full of extremes, and also full of moderates. Both parties would benefit from the clarity of being split up, I think; it’s just genuinely unclear how the process could be changed.

That's largely a special case of the general difference between owned and referenced data, which applies to all non-trivial data types. "String" just happens to be the first of those that most novice coders will encounter. If anything, it makes a nice "toy" case for the general distinction.

Cinderella ends happily ever after and the New Testament doesn’t. I think it’s that simple.
I tested Retool a bit, which is great, but it is way too expensive for my projects, so I went with the open-source Appsmith instead.

It has been successful, but I recently had to patch it to remove a new annoying «made with appsmith» ad on our applications that can only be disabled on the enterprise edition or if you edit the source code of the open source one and are willing to share your patch of course. Another important planned feature, SAML/OpenID has also recently been announced to be only for the not open source enterprise edition. Their Kubernetes helm chart is a mess too. They want to be noob friendly with everything in a single stateful container. I understand the reasons, but I don’t like it.

On the good parts, we build applications in a few days, and it’s great for prototyping and simple applications. One large application we build has reached the limits of no-code platforms, in our opinion. It will be rewritten in code, but we think it was not a waste of time and resources as we could iterate fast, and we didn’t know whether a more expensive development would be worth it.

I’m struck by his closing remarks:

> Today, the painting is housed in one of the two remnants of the 17th century Buen Retiro Palace, built by Philip IV. The other surviving building is the nearby army museum. It contains the mothballed relics of Spanish militarism, including the massacre at Paracuellos, and other paintings which glorify the Nationalist cause.

> The two museums, which represent conflicting but deeply entrenched ideological positions in Spain, are guarded in one form or another by the military.

> Guernica, however, is subject to stringent displays of security. Plate glass and steel girders reveal the state’s need to appear open to the emblems of dissent, whilst ensuring their cultural containment.

To what end? They were lifting bombs on kites as early as the 7th century, as well as humans as novelties (and punishments - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuan_Huangtou).

If you want a lift a human to do something, you also need some better steering and safe landing, and those require more reliable engineering besides just the basic lift possibility.
