Show me in the 1974 NYT article where the NBER defines a recession.

Upon further research, it seems pretty shady. According to this, one of their members took $100K from Uber to write beneficial articles on them through the org. Seems they also don't confirm a recession until a year has past. It's telling that you give them such credence.

Software engineer focused on leadership and process automation. For the past 12 years I have been leading teams, designing solutions & architectures. I mostly work on backend with APIs built on NodeJS & AWS but I keep in touch with React web & mobile. Love teaching juniors and coding best practices. I'm out of practice with C# but used to love .NET.

My immediate family is planning a move to England so I'm open to it as well.
I must disagree. What I have seen is what you are saying enables bad internal culture, decision making and technical habits to become more ingrained into the very soul of the company.

I see well meaning senior technical people disregard my advice on technical matters because that's just not how things are done there ever, some things are so far out of the box they can't even conceive of it as a possibility. Manager after manager telling you the same answer because that's what whoever they ask about tells them because everyone at that dept/company is 15+yr tenured.

If you want to keep things as they are but maybe slightly better or to make different internal people happy you promote from within. If you want fresh thinking and new directions you gotta hire from the outside.

I can't emphasize this enough. The only analogy that comes to mind is eskimos that have to traverse a desert but only want other eskimos in their team.
what does a CTO do at a company of decent size?

do they actually have a hand in day to day technical decisions, setting technical tone or otherwise impact the technical environment or are they mostly doing abstract management? is it a role that is good for people who aim to have extensive impact in creating a technical culture or is it mostly people management and exec stuff but at a high level?
> Usually when people say this, in my experience, it means they have some set of arbitrary requirements that aren't being fulfilled.

The requirement is $/mo is affordable.

Technically, yes, savings is irrelevant; as long as I can reach the required down-payment it doesn't much matter. It matters a bit in that, if I make a >traditional down payment, I can in theory, start cutting into the $/mo¹. The in practice problem is that my ROI has been outpaced by the housing market's lunacy, and more recently, there's the problem of inflation.

(There's also the other direction, where savings is irrelevant in that you can just ignore the traditional down payment, and like, take PMI or something, but that raises the $/mo problem.)

(Part of me is starting to go "well, but what if we just didn't count some of the cost as a cost per-se, I mean, housing is an investment, amirite? and the prices clearly only go up. (Heavy /s on that.))

Now, look at the current economy: inflation is +9% over the last 12 mo, YTD my investments are something like -18% (though of course, probably… things will get back to normal … any day now… — but that means that your time horizon for home purchasing has to be further out than things returning to normal), and IME eng salaries go down¹ until you inevitably change jobs, and tech companies are laying people off right now (so, it means gauging who you think is in deeper trouble: your current employer or your next employer, and boy do employees not get the kind of data or insight to tell that sort of thing — although after 2 years at a place I think one will know, for that company).

¹more or less. Adjustments for promotions might happen, but in my circle of people, we're not seeing meaningful adjustments for inflation or intra-level bumps.
It can be "hosted serverless Kubernetes" (in the EKS flavour), or "hosted serverless Amazon ECS" (in that flavour).
This makes sense in theory, but seems insanely weird in practice.

1. I start a company. It’s just me. Obviously, I lead the company.

2. It’s successful!

3. I hire two more people to help with some of the low-hanging fruit that I don’t have as much time for.

4. Do I need to be careful now so that they don’t just conspire against me, elect one of themselves to “run the company” and just take the assets and run?

Or is this too small of a company for this to make sense? Do we make it law for companies with more than 500 employees? So most companies will stay at 499 employees for as long as possible?
Ask HN: What skill/hobby can my 8 year old learn on their own?
All my 8 year old wants to do is play Roblox or watch YouTube. They taught themselves how to play Roblox, so I know they are capable of learning other things.

> Why wouldn't you want to run JS outside of a browser?

Not OP, but as someone working on backend, infra, and some part time game dev, JS isn't in my skillset in any meaningful way so I don't use tools within that ecosystem if I can avoid it.

> IMHO Docusaurus is more flexible and customizable that MkDocs.

I want to see an Amdahl emulator running on a Hitachi emulator running on a Fujitsu emulator running on a zos emulator that runs Linux and reads punch cards. Fire up the DASD!
It's the same with the tract housing that sprouted up all over the bay area in the 50s. It's basically all the same crap but it's had 70 years to get a little bit of variety sprinkled on top, so not quite as eyesearingly identical as more recent cookie cutter neighborhoods.
Market theories don't claim everyone makes efficient decisions just that over time, people tend to pay for their inefficiencies. In contrast, systems based on status, family lineage, etc, provide little to no natural force against similar inefficiencies.
I didn't really grok how punch cards worked until I went to the Computer History Museum and typed one out myself. Then it suddenly clicked.

Each punch card represents a single line of plain text. That's it.

Usually this was a single line of FORTRAN or COBOL code, but it could also be data like a person's name, age, etc. No idea why I didn't get that before. I may have had the idea that developers back then were writing in binary or something. As you type out the card, the holes are punched and the character is printed along the top, so humans can read it. (Cards can hold binary data as well, but I'm talking about the cards used by programmers and for data input by secretaries - say for new account info, etc.)

How many characters can a card hold? 80, of course. Even today, many IDEs will draw a line at 80 columns. I thought it was some pedantic formatting thing. I think many still do. Nope, just a holdover of 1950s tech. A stack of cards? That's akin to a single file, with each line of text data being an individual card. Need to fix a bug? Make a new punch card for that line of code and swap it out. Code reuse is card reuse. Just take that subroutine from one stack and slip it into your program's pile before your next run.

Sure, there were typewriters and printers for interactive use, but without magnetic tape or anything like a floppy, this is how you stored your program in a machine readable way.
These are justified when looking at the truly elite level. You’re looking for fractional improvements that might add up to a watt or two. Aero frames, internal cables, spandex, are all about things that will make a marginal difference at an elite level.

Disc brakes have been a bit of an outlier with extra weight and safety issues brought up by riders. Though it’s easier to internally route cables, and you can stop quicker and more predictably. Maybe the aerodynamic issues of the cables are big enough to switch for the elite riders.
If your goal is to become a C-level executive, start your career (and excel) at McKinsey, BCG, Bain, or similar elite management consulting firms.

I have always thought that the way west societies use real estate ties people into a societal contract which obliges them to work in less than ideal conditions.

If you don't come from a wealthy family you need to get at least a 30 year loan. The moment you get a 30 year loan you have enormous pressure to generate income every month and will accept non ideal conditions. Essentially, by getting debt you lose leverage.

>We need to build social systems which don't select for relentless salespeople and smooth talking charlatans if we want to live in a prosperous, harmonious society. The optimal proportion of these is in all likelihood not zero, but does anyone believe it's as high as we see now?

I see the good intentions here, but I don't really support it. Would I like people to lie and cheat less? Yes. Would I like a society where nobody can lie and cheat? No, because of what that enforcement would entail.
Didn't Elon sell the house and moved to live next to the factory?
Well the trick is not getting found out which isn’t particularly difficult.
My team switched with AWS lambda and it was convenient. I definitely recommend using a framework like the Serverless framework. One benefit of the framework is that it supports multiple vendors so you don’t have to port cloudformation templates over, but it also supports a ton of plugins that make development easy. Our team had nearly zero scaling issues and our costs were lower than any other team in our org who were using ECS or EC2. An example of an issue was that a service I wrote was timing out for certain parameters and I had to increase the memory from the lowest memory setting so it could finish in time. But those kinds of things were rare. It was a Flask app and if needed we could have easily set up a docker container and thrown it in EC2 or ECS but we never needed to. Cold starts were annoying but mostly solved with provisioned concurrency which can be autoscaled. It was sometimes annoying to not be able to log into a production host and debug something but I guess it’s not good to do that anyway. Overall I’d recommend going serverless if you don’t know what your load is going to be or know it’s going to scale up slowly. If you know it’s worth the cost of ECS/EC2 from the start, it’s computationally intensive or requires a lot of RAM, then just go with ECS/EC2 (or EKS).

well. hmm. I wonder if shareholders of large German industrial groups think the same.
When you scale up you expose the inefficiencies of existing systems, like title transfers across states. Even if not statistically different from normal dealerships, the numbers are greater because Carvana sells so many more cars.

Anyways, looks like they're allowed to sell cars again as it gets figured out. Not shady at all when you actually understand what is going on. Just like this relatively small FTC fine for Opendoor.

Not another one of these... I'd be into them if they integrated with standard protocols and file formats, e.g. caldav, carddav, org-mode, etc, and at least provided an API if not integrations with various open source tools. Otherwise I'm not going to have all my important personal information locked up into a proprietary system that may shut down or may be deficient in some annoying way.

Google is particular about the hardware for security reasons. I don't know enough to say what those security reasons are, but there are only a few approved models from Lenovo. And you can't bring your own, even if it's an identical model, so I assume Google has some special hardware auditing and purchase program.

Focusing on tactic and strategy is the opposite of empathy. An empathetic response communicates that you understand the feelings and experience of someone else. Your comment did the opposite by only focusing on your own thoughts/desires/experience. You may find it useful to research emotional intelligence so that you can respond appropriately and productively to another's emotional state.

We sold my daughter's condo 2 years ago, and we're still getting email solititations to buy it. Apparently there's a company sitting behind about a half-dozen shell companies, and they're trying to buy up enough units that they can sit on the association board, and convert the whole complex to rentals; forcing the remaining owners to sell.

I'm glad I got her out of there 2 years ago. The rising crime problem there was the motivating factor.
my 2 cents:

1. Give people a free demo so they can get their data into the system.

2. After the trial period, let them export the data out if they want (don't make the credit card request seem like a ransom request).

I didn't get diagnosed until my late 30s. It's always worth checking. I managed to carve out some level of success despite, but it was not without a lot of suffering.

If you think you might have ADHD go see someone who specialises in it and get it checked out. I was certain that I had it when I was 20, but my local doctor told me I was "trying to get out of work". Top bloke. Nearly 20 years later I'm vindicated with a diagnosis. Get it checked out!
If we are going to go to extremes to illustrate the disadvantages then let me point out what happens with the opposite.

When you choose to hire outside for every single leadership position especially senior ones you send the message to the people that their effort and sacrifice is not appreciated and you don't trust and that they won't be growing with the company.

The people who built the company then get disaffected and leave, eventually no one is committed and things go to hell because there is no loyalty or personal interest.

That still sounds like an assumption from the community. Perhaps the "third party OSes and bootloaders" is just a side-effect of Apple's own development requirements.

Tesla Slows Down in Europe: Competition Is Fiercer Than Ever
I don't think this is a paradox at all.

If an option is perceived to be significantly better, then the decision can be made quickly.

Otherwise more study is required to decide which is better, or if they are actually indistinguishable.

It's the same reason why more trials of an experiment are required to reject the null hypothesis when the effect of the experimental variable is very weak. This is analogous to considering the options in your mind until you decide the difference between them is too small to matter. That takes time!

Sometimes after deep thought, you may decide one of them is actually better, but not by very much. Obviously you could argue that time is wasted for such a small benefit, but it's not a paradox.

Introductory statistics tells us we can never prove the null hypothesis; all we can do is reject or fail to reject it. In other words, you give up on the attempt only after deciding extended study is unlikely to reject it.

I’ve tried a lot of apps like this over the years. Two main things I’ve struggled with with all of them:

1) none seem to handle multiple calendars well. I have a personal calendar, a work calendar, and a side project calendar, I want them all to be independent, have tasks blocked out on them, etc, but still be aware of each other. So for example, I want to schedule a doctor’s appointment on my personal and have my other calendars mirror that time block, but scrub the details/make it generic. Super specific idea obviously, but if I don’t have it I have so much manual overhead aligning everything that I just give up and do it by hand.

2) they are all dogshit slow (not sure about this one, haven’t tried it). The combo of electron apps and what I guess is just calendar synchronization latency makes them have surprise ux patterns and overall just shitty experience in general.

A third thing is that I really enjoy planning my life with a kanban, and executing my day from a todo list (scheduled). That’s hard to nail.

Last: my notes live separately (as most people’s do I’ve seen anecdotally).

I hope someone can really succeed in this space because time blocking is so powerful, but nothing has fit my lifestyle quite right yet unfortunately.

Yes, you can recursively apply pairing functions to generate N -> 1 dimensional pairing functions.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fueter%E2%80%93P%C3%B3lya_theo...

These pairing functions can be used to sample from configuration/state spaces that would be hard to sample from otherwise -- for example, stars and bars problems: https://churchofthought.org/blog/2019/07/24/an-ordered-varia...
> Switching it round though, 99.99% of customers are buying a toaster. I put bread in. It makes toast. I eat toast. Does it make commercial sense to support the 0.01% use case?

Fair enough. I think most toaster manufacturers will at least test what happens when you put a bagel inside, though. If said bagel causes an electrical fire or doesn't toast as well as the previous model did, it doesn't matter if ~1% of users will encounter it; it probably needs to get fixed before it ships.

I think this fully extends to Apple Silicon as well. Apple's "contributions" to Asahi mostly amount to adding a feature that pre-existed on x86 machines, and probably intended for Bootcamp/Windows rather than Linux. Hell, there's compelling evidence that Apple simply uses that functionality to flash testing firmware onto Macbooks, and the Linux compatibility is just a nice side-effect. Much like you said though, with Apple you never know. Until they release an official statement on the matter, it can only be assumed it's a coincidence.

Agree with the sentiment of siblings. Apple writing public documentation would have a cost (server maintenance, full time technical writers, support for devs etc), and how would they justify it? Their mantra has always been a single unit formed by their hardware AND software. They are nice enough to allow you to play with the hardware and keep the security features, I don't think you should expect much more.
No idea about the deepfake thing, but a few years ago I noticed a whole bunch of old channels that I had subscribed to were taken over and replaced with Musk-related giveaway scams.
