> You can’t “just grant stocks” though without subjecting employees to massive tax liabilities on non-liquid shares

Just pay their taxes then?

If you give an employee 100 stocks, valued at 100$ each, with a tax rate of 25% - 7500$ net wealth, you should rather give the employee 75 stocks and 1875$ (==tax on 75 stocks at 25%) - 7500$ net wealth.

That might be because people who really wanted a small phone might have gone for the 12/13 mini which is even smaller. I never considered the 8 "small".

This is a great opportunity to remind everyone about the extremely negative dampening effects Micro$oft has had on innovation in both hardware and operating systems.

It's a monopoly and should have been broken up. We still can barely find OEM-installed Linux laptops, and an entity the size of Dell or Asus could easily float their own distro or add support dollar$ to an existing one.
Is there innovation? Seems like Tiktok is just a more "evil" iteration of Vine.
Yeah, maybe it already is. I haven't tried it recently, it's been a while since I played Steam games.
My family visited the area almost every summer. The campsite just a few miles away (funtana) we used to go to is now a textile glamping site. I remember that it was more camping with basic facilities, dust paths and few paved roads. Now they have landscaping, a water park and much nicer facilities.
It's shorter and narrower than a 3a (but deeper).
> I think you also missed the problem on this one. If you have "roles for operations" that doesn't involve development, it's not a devops role, it's just an operations role. Sure you can have devops in the mix, but someone doing operations exclusively isn't devops.

It seems we both agree that having a DevOps engineer is not incompatible with DevOps?
That seems oddly appropriate.
Feel free to believe this if you want or if it helps you.

But your simple 'explanaition' of quantum tunneling effects sounds fancy but creates so many more issues that it is as insane as it sounds.

Oh our brain is able to quantum tunnel to people who need help and ignores all other billions of people.

It's not good enough that we can proof it over pure randomness which makes it 100% useless even if this would be a thing but there are probably a 1000 other reasons why we can't use it anymore right?

I'm not sure what you mean 'by the voice' but I do know that our brain is not perfect and there are illnesses out there like schizophrenia.

I also experienced basic Halluzinationen myself due to LSD and just last week when I was only hearing English for the last three weeks on holiday that sometimes my mind though it would understand German sentence from people further away.

Science means that you need to proof it. It's easy to invent something without any proof. Look: I saw God, I'm Jesus and you need to be my follower. Your duty to me is your destiny. Send me all your money.

You don't need proof and you can't even determine if I'm not son of god. Better worship me now.

Maybe, but mini version will be phased out in iPhone 14 lineup. Besides, iPhone SE is way cheaper, and I suspect part of its success is due to pricing.

Last year we were holidaying in Drakensberg (mountaneous area in South Africa) and for my birthday I've decided to run the "Big 5" hike which involves climbing five hills in the area (it's at Cavern). About 20k with ~2000m elevation gain. Took me 4 hours and I was pretty much dead at the end, but the best birthday gift I gave myself, ever!

Yes, agreed, it's definitely a much bigger network & economic problem than a technical one.

Blogs, discogs and national radio actually work a lot better for me for discovery, simply because, as you say, Spotify may not even have the input data in order to then help me discover better music. Thing is, I'm not sure there is a desire (perhaps economically driven) to improve that catalogue as they would need to.

Sorry but having a decent team player is generally a lot more use in my opinion. Smart devs who are divas are bad, divas who thinkk they are smarter than what they are are even worse.
I didn't see it mentioned here but I've seen it reported previously: what makes NYC's situation worse is that it sits at the "bottom" of a funnel formed by NJ and Long Island. That is, a storm on a particular path would push the stormsurge up the funnel, effectively multiplying it (i.e., increasing it's depth and power).

It's not an if question. It's when.
Maybe it is still a fair question for machines that should only be reachable by other machines you fully own (like database servers and so on)? Just thinking out loud.

Oddly was hoping more people would agree that being hyper connectable to randoms was mind numbing, but think for some any contact is better than no contact.

Instead, only other comment was about who wrote the article, instead of the topic itself.
We don't. "Operations" is not a synonym "DevOps".

Devops does involve operations, but is not exclusively that.

Having an Operations person work together with developers doesn't automatically make the Ops engineer into a DevOps engineer. Just as it wouldn't make the non-operations developers into DevOps engineers.

Maybe the better term would be "Operations Engineer for multi-disciplinary Team". Not DevOps.

EDIT: It was previously written "It seems we both agree that having a Ops engineer is not incompatible with DevOps?"

The assumption is also that the transition towards them can be smooth and that ties are easily replaceable. As far as I know, consistent family ties still play a major role in succeeding at work, even 20 years deep into the adult age.

It's literally the same except that you can name it differently with a nice icon that goes with it. You can also determine which apps should/shouldn't send you a notification and which persons can slip through. It can also be enabled automatically based on certain factors (like time for example).
That resonates with my experience at large as well, which I find to be unfortunate.

I actually have come across a number of highly knowledgeable and talented sysadmins along the way, and I truly wanted the Dev part of DevOps to work and invested a lot of personal effort into trying to make it work although in vain each and every time.

Such individuals also have a tendency to create new, deeply entrenched silos that continue on to keep developers in shackles.

> I call those teams “developer obstructions” or DevObs for short.

With your permission, I will ecstatically add the new term into my daily professional vocabulary.
That's actually not happening at all and seems to completely ignore the volume aspect of profit.
I mean they really weren't that bad back in the day, though I would say they're probably the antithesis of something like an iPad.

I had a Lenovo S10 netbook (Atom N270, WinXP, 1G RAM, 160G HDD) that I used from high school to the first years of college and it was actually great for everything I needed it to do -- writing code and reading documentation -- and never broke a sweat. I did Perl, Java (Swing & Android dev), JavaScript, PHP, C++, and Flash/ActionScript development and dual booted Linux (Fedora).

The thing I really appreciated was that even though it was really cheap -- cheap enough that as a high school student I had my own laptop instead of having to share the family computer -- it did everything any other bigger laptop could do. I had both WiFi and Bluetooth (which could not be taken for granted back in the day), an SD card reader, mic and headphone jacks, and even a PCMCIA slot!

Sure, netbooks were not _better_ at anything compared to a laptop, but they also largely didn't have any hard limitations. It allowed anyone to just dive deep in and tinker and customize. On the contrary, an iPad (especially those first & second generation ones) was no more than an appliance like a toaster or fridge. It had a fixed set of things it could do, and anything outside of it was impossible.

Heck, if I was to only have _one_ computing device today and had to choose between current model iPad and a nearly two decade old netbook, I'd take the netbook any day. An iPad is doomed to forever be a secondary device, but a netbook, should you be so willing, can be your primary computer.
Yes, excellent points.

And then Google Photos works together with Google Maps Timeline to show you pics taken on a given day in a certain place. Theoretically possible on any platform since photos have appropriate metadata, but practically only available from Google.
Definitely low cost comparing to any other current iPhone. For me, Android isn't an option (too deep into Apple ecosystem).

It was better that he didn't know what he was in for and went in totally blind. I also saw him snort coke that he bought in either Subic Bay or Pattaya.
Good to know the S22 Ultra has a decent fingerprint reader.

Note that S10 is totally different than S10e when it comes to the fingerprint reader, though. On the S10e, the power button is the fingerprint reader. The position is perfect. Contrast that with phones like Pixel 4 or Pixel 5, where Google think a sensor in an awkward location on the back of the phone is the right move.
Well I am certainly not carrying a device with two fragile glass surfaces without a protection case :( So it doesn’t matter at this point.

Ask HN: Best Automated Testing Approach for Canvas-Based Apps?
Canvas-based Apps:

Basically any app where most of the features involve user interaction on a graphical canvas (eg. checking if a map is drawn correctly on Google Maps, testing Paint or Figma-like sketching apps etc)

These types of apps are traditionally more difficult to test than GUI apps with predominantly form-like features.

I was wondering what the latest state-of-art was in regards to testing such apps, with respect to maintainability, low false positives/negatives etc.
Awesome! Super excited to try this out properly now.
I think so, because it keeps me in the app and watching content.
There's not a single screenshot of the operating system I could see, and I need to unlock the phone and all so assuming this is a custom ROM.

Usually you lose access to things like GPay or certain NFC functionalities, and end up with a not-entirely stable experience anyway. I'd rather a phone that just worked. The half a dozen I had previously at least didn't struggle with the basics!
I always thought "stack" referred to just the web development stack, meaning someone who can write both frontend and backend code.

The life of women in the upper class were objectively better than the male serfs.

The major form of oppression back then was by class, then by gender.

It is of course better to be a male aristocrat than a female aristocrat (measured from today’s individualism values ie domestic duties have zero value), but both lived vastly better lives than serfs. Being a lower class woman was an extremely oppressed state, illustrated vividly by books from Victor Hugo.

Thanks for sharing the "no arts" version, that makes this whole post make a lot more sense to me. It reminds me a lot of the effects we used mod tracker days, where rapidly retriggering a note with a short attack could create a new timbre that fulfilled a different musical role to the original sample. I seem to recall "compos" or challenges in the scene where a restriction might be to create a whole song with just one sample (or even just one channel), so you'd make heavy use of effects like retriggers, arpeggios, tremelos and pitch bends to try create something interesting.

It's fun when you hear the effect in commercial music too. For a while it only really showed up in stuff by IDM producers trying to sound weird, but then it got more mainstream and nowadays you hear it in everything from techno to dubstep and even pop.

I wonder if these black MIDI artists require a specific sample set to be used for playback, so they can control how the waveforms interact. I also wonder how much they use velocity, aftertouch, modwheel etc to shape the sound, or if (for example) the percussive effects are just a result of careful stacking.
Look at the 13Fs for last quarter, find the funds that are still up, ask them if they made trades based on technicals and data or purely on gut feeling that it’s time to buy lean hog futures again because they’ve been through this before. Careful with the crypto bros they are looking at the sidewalk on 5th ave from their penthouses.

Data driven companies tend to use the data to quickly fill in dark spots, collect that income and tap the source dry, and then bureaucracy and nepotism set in and the script is flipped. Data is used to explain away why we lost our shirt and how it’s not our fault.

The VC is looking for the moon and trying to argue that more data would somehow make the VC feel less like it’s Las Vegas. Sorry it’s all Vegas unless you want to spread and settle for making few percent by investing in all 5 companies and not trying to guess the pack leader.

Jeez, I skimmed the article, and saw what I assume to be a comprehensive but basic primer on modern packaging, like you say. But I also inferred that the author is probably a newer programmer, with only a few years of experience. He's learning about tools and best practices in an accessible language and having fun sharing knowledge through his blog.

The sentiment behind your comments is shared, but I don't see the need to sarcastically rant about it and rail all the suggestions OP made.

If anything, I'm surprised someone with more experience didn't see the post for what it is, and attacking someone's post like this just shows immaturity when you could have easily taken those opinions and formed a constructive argument or given good advice.
Most of latest tech? I found it to be a great upgrade coming from the iPhone 8: overall faster, slightly better battery life, better camera with a few new tricks. As I wrote in the article, I wouldn't mind upgrading every four or five years to new versions of this phone with newer internals. It just works.

Germany is unusual because they are enormous net exporters. Not every country can be a net exporter.

When you have an aging population the ratio of working people to elderly people will shift radically. Healthcare expenses ratchet up every year, crowding out other government expenditures. It's not a recipe for a healthy economy. And it's not easy to invest in the future when older people outnumber younger people and are more likely to vote and lobby for their (class) interest.

You need a lot of innovation to compensate for these secular headwinds.

> What pisses me off is people complaining about my local, free-range meat consumption while chomping on fruit and grain grown in more temperate countries and flown here.

Not sure if you're being serious here, but the _extreme_ vast majority of food is shipped, not flown. It's something like 0.16% [1], and I'll bet that's low-volume, high-worth food. And your local meat _probably_ has a higher carbon footprint than meat imported from a better climate; lamb from New Zealand, plus shipping to the UK, has a lower carbon footprint than lamb from the UK eaten in the UK [2], because the New Zealand climate is better.

I think this is Facebook's biggest issue: they moved from being a very useful tool to being the app that tries to drive traffic and engagement so much that it becomes less useful. I think they should refocus back on being a useful tool to keep track of friends, and keep in touch with people you meet, and then do the other stuff they want to do separately. Facebook IS still useful, but because of all the noise now people mostly use it to be able to contact old friends OR they don't use the close social network features that use to make facebook useful.

Unless I'm actively texting someone, that might me a dozen notifications a day.
