I agree with you that it's possible. It's just been my experience that the people who take that mindset tend to slack off once they realize they can get the same paycheck to provide for their family while also doing less work. If your internal utility function is to maximize money and minimize effort, that's going to occur more often than not. To buffer that, management needs to hold them accountable, but that's easier said than done, especially in large organizations.
> We didn't give our own tools any special treatment.

but you also didn't "Make them fast!" in response to the criticism. i know because i've profiled and purged plenty of google's JS from sites in the past. in most cases, this analytics/tag-manager JS far outweighed the site's own JS, to the tune of 5:1.

always found it odd how a company that makes V8, Blink, Chrome's DevTools, LightHouse, Closure Compiler, then evangelizes and blogs about performance but in the end doesnt take its own medicine.
If you work at a bank, you'll have a hard time being taken seriously as a low level programmer. Backend at a more challenging company sounds like a good stepping stone.
Yes, this is annual.

Having worked (as a civilian contractor) for the military it's equally plausible that the decision was screwed up for other reasons. High up decision makers that "trust their gut" over what the data tells them or who arbitrarily decide that a certain pattern looks silly to them.

It's absolutely not intuitive that the digital looking blocky camouflage patterns [1] are going to perform better than the blob style camo patterns they replaced.

> Same thing with my TV and Router, both of which required an app to just setup

Off the top of my head, both Xfinity and Google Home have this problem and it aggravates me to no end. I can reset my gateway from my PC but for some reason, *need* to use my phone to manage Xfinity or any of my Nest routers
Why do you respond in such a hostile manner to a legitimate question?
Why even put this stuff on the page? It makes you look like a really bitter, childish and hateful person.
Right now I don't, because the project takes ~30 seconds to build serially... There are a few options:

1. Put the Ninja support in the tarball (which is trivial, but I guess I was paranoid about the extra dependency for a low level tool like shell). I think Ninja is supported everywhere now, including on Windows and BSDs. It's easier to build that GNU make itself, etc.

2. The last time I looked, the toybox project had some sort of "parallel job server" type thing in shell, to avoid GNU make.

3. Maybe do something simpler with "xargs -P" (non POSIX)

I'd probably go for the first option just because it's the least custom code to solve this particular problem. If the build was slower, it might be different ... although if speed is really an issue, then Ninja is the best option out of all of these, AND GNU make!

----

edit: I should also note that in practice I think many users and especially distros do NOT pass -j $N to GNU make because it's not reliable. If upstream didn't test with it, there can be bugs that result in incorrect builds. So distros often just use serial builds.

On the other hand, paralllel builds with Ninja are the default, so upstream will have tested in that mode.
If you want a device but don't want to have to buy batteries or make a case, there are several sellers on etsy who have pre-finished units.

While the T-beams are nice for having screens and gps, the RAK based devices have better battery life.
I feel like this falls on parents, once again.

What is a valid use-case that a child/teenager requires a phone?

I would argue that don't need unrestricted internet access too, but education has largely moved online.
Can you create a Debian derivative and not release the source code?

> Sexuality is similar to mental illness in my opinion ..., there are sub-clinical cases where someone can have a degree of it but it doesn't cross a threshold where it becomes behaviourly significant.

Honestly seems like a perfect comparison in my experience as well.
LA itself is not extremely wealthy with the median household income less than national according to a quick search. There are rich cities that people consider "LA" but actually separate cities with own government: Santa Monica,Malibu, Beverly Hills, Calabasas etc.
Precludes feels like the word word here. Nothing prevents you from satisfying your use case and spinning up vms before they are needed.

I wrote the student vm system for udacity, and I spun up student vms before they needed them, with some last mile loading to finalize the files they need. The student VMs were not using k8s, although a small piece of the infrastructure did.

I worried most about untrusted users working in a complex environment with the ability to harm the experience of other users, and just used GCE.

For me, boot time was < 5 minutes, so if you can predict the next five minutes of demand, you can boot those machines early. If you are wrong you will pay extra or someone will wait extra time, but still less than the full boot time. Generally it takes less than 10 seconds to access a vm with your coursework on in.
Viewstamped Replication Revisited (2015)
Is it really nonsense, or are people from our generation and older just stifled to fit themselves into very narrow boxes that the younger folks are refusing to comply with?

> There's a whole detrans movement of such folks who regret doing such, often irreversible, massive damage to their body.

I looked into this a while back and found that the vast majority of this "movement" was british transphobes making up stories about their friend who this definitely happened to. Didn't seem to have a whole lot of legitimacy to it.

Why British specifically? Beats me but they were definitely over-represented amongst these stories.
Swedens and Norways top political parties have ‘social’ in their name. Also, I would say socialism is more of a sliding scale based on ‘how big’ the role of government is. It depends on what level of the ‘social programs’ fall under the perview of the government vs. private industry.

I would say Sweden and Denmark are more ‘socialist leaning’ compared to other democratic republics of the world.
Our story involves moving onto k8s, then moving off it.

We run most of our app on Google App Engine explicitly to avoid devops work. However, we have a stateless-but-memory-hungry image manipulation service that was just too expensive on GAE. We migrated that service to k8s on Digital Ocean.

It was a disaster. I mean, it worked, but suddenly we were spending a lot of time learning k8s and fussing with k8s and it slowed down feature development. K8s is a time sink. So we migrated the service to Digital Ocean App Platform and velocity returned to normal.

I'm not wholly thrilled with DO App Platform. It has some maturity issues, and while it's cheaper than GAE, RAM is still more expensive than Elastic Beanstalk (which charges you more or less the EC2 VM cost). So we'll probably move it there someday.
If the competitor offers https://www.dropbox.com/install-linux, developed in the open with a GPL license, is it reasonable to tell other people to take on the cost of building and maintaining a client for your paid service?

I'm a Staff SE - happy to answer questions via email or put you in touch with the right person if I can't. My email address is in my HN profile.
"Not an issue" in the sense that he's engrossed in video games to the point that he wouldn't care for one or in the sense that he's wealthy enough to obtain one on demand?
Can we as a HN community stop downvoting comments because we don't like the reality of what is happening?

I know the reality of unavoidable climate catastrophe is uncomfortable to talk about, but aggressive denial is really a problem in the HN community.

I can completely understand people who haven't studied this topic in depth not being aware of how dire the situation is, so asking questions or debating is healthy and expected. Downvoting a comment consisting of a statement of fact combined with a logical hypothesis derived from that fact, backed up by 3 well known citations is not a healthy direction for this community to develop in.

Denial is a part of dealing with this reality, but as a community we should work a bit harder to move towards better acceptance and understanding.
Not only that, but you'll also not really be running it anywhere that isn't "on AWS", like a browser.
Men commit suicide 3.8x more than women[1] due to cavalier attitudes such as yours about the mental struggles men face. I'm not saying you're a "part of the problem", I'm just saying you could really benefit from admitting to yourself that yes, men do cry. Yes, men do feel the same emotions as women. Yes, men do have to hold it in for fear of being labeled a "pussy" or be seen as "crying like a little bitch".

I don't really understand this. I get that initiative is good. but there are lot of environments where you could really screw things up if your changing things with communicating. how does the change you introduced get tested? communicated to the customer? how do you know it wasn't a low priority task and had the product owner known there was capacity you couldn't have worked on something higher priority? to me that's the whole point of a backlog and a prioritization process. add it to the backlog and if you have a solution paste the solution into the comments so it can be prioritized.
Just to be clear, I think there's anything inherently wrong with the service. I'm sure there are many good use cases for it.

Advertising it as a way to circumvent another provider's paid plan using their own services is what I believe to be unethical at best.
I see from the docs that if you don't want an SPA then you should use Docusaurus 1 instead of Docusaurus 2.

What are the downsides of using an SPA?

I guess you couldn't have a JavaScript-free site, but I'm not sure of other downsides.
As far as I can tell, as long as you pay for a unity asset and you don't just resell it by itself, you can use it in whatever way you want.

For example, if there's a nifty networking library for Unity and I adapted to use it somewhere else, as long as I don't resell the library, I should be fine. Practically I can't imagine an asset store author suing you for using the asset in a non-unity project.

I do vastly prefer a single language engine like Stride, versus Godot which supports visual scripting, GD script, and C#.
Moderating your own behavior is about being cognizant of your emotions and the associated causes/effects, not ignoring them.
> Are you implying that the majority of their business is promoting teen mental illness and eating disorders?

These websites will do anything to prevent teens from migrating to a new platform. The majority of content, even teen content, isn't the unhealthy trends, but they will do nothing to curb it if it risks nudging that cohort to a competitor.

The source will be shareable once we get it running again. Other than historical curiosity, people are most likely to use it for assistance in converting old work to the successor program Macaulay2.

The script bin/ninja.rb creates two flavors of build.rb, one that keeps going no matter what, writing error files for each exception, and another for use once everything works. One might be able to craft a single file that does both, but I'll want to ditch these complications once we're done with the conversion, and end users won't want to see them.

It would have helped me to see more examples like this, learning ninja.
It’s for security and for homogeneity, a lot of google is setup around the principle that “works on my machine” is terrible, and also removing needless cleverness. You have root and can run anything you want*, but you have to go out of your way to configure anything differently than others, and the result is (hopefully) it just works the same everywhere. The monorepo also runs only natively on these Linux machines through a magical fuse interface so most development is either using the web ide or ssh-ing into the Linux box if you aren’t sitting in front of it. There were big economies of scale running this way and at least this setup, definitely felt pretty great and efficient I gotta say.

* By default, a tool called “Santa” keeps a naughty and nice list of runnable programs but all it took to get a program added to the nice list is any other googler vouching for it in an automated web tool.
I don't know if "They're better at hiding it" is sufficiently negated by responding with "I've never seen it."

Also crying isn't the only form of emotional breakdown. It can also get sublimated into rage which manifests as screaming at subordinates, punching walls, road rage incidents, and domestic violence.

And it also sublimates into depression, which can manifest as substance abuse disorders and self-harm.

I think the OP claim that women are incapable of handling the same workplace pressures as men are is eliding a lot of information.
Even if a miracle happened and we reached zero emissions today, there's climate lag and feedbacks. Temps would keep rising for decades if not centuries.
Newsletter author here. I run two actually—Tedium (https://tedium.co/) and MidRange (https://midrange.tedium.co).

Yes, they work. Beyond the ROI benefits already mentioned by other folks, it’s seen as an “owned” platform, something that you control, versus social media, where the platform is operated by someone else. You can make changes and adapt more efficiently to subscriber needs than somewhere like social media, where platforms are reshaping things that can affect your ROI without your input.

For that reason alone, I can understand why newsletters matter to a lot of media outlets and e-commerce folks alike.
Will handling signatures be on your roadmap?
Between the walk-back of basic human rights in the West through COVID, nuclear superpowers currently appearing to be locked in a state of war and the US on a path of unchecked money printing I'm not sure global warming is in my top 3 civilisational crisises at the moment. Arguably I suppose a monstrous heat wave in India could bump it back up, but really even then we'd be better off facing with cheap energy than walking back from the gains made with fossil fuels over the last 20-30 years.

And the environmental activists are serious contributes to the instability in Europe with their weird insistence that people put ideology before energy security. The Germans screwed up their energy policy because they insisted on policy by ideology and unfounded fear of nuclear.
Today's camo is so much better than the red coats the British were wearing in the 18th century. chuckle
There is truth in this, it increasingly appears that we've just swapped God for the state.

Even if the fall of religion was inevitable in the West, a source of objective values distinct from the state hasn't really emerged. "Human rights" conflict with each other, are subjective and overridden by the government at will.

It may be possible but philosophy needs to get its game on.
Hm? I'd say about 80% of calls I make to customer service accomplish the goal I have (canceling something I can't cancel online, doing some kind of "identity verification," etc.).

Package managers cannot read the changelog. That is why we have version numbers.
idk, but it seems to undermine national security.

Maybe in here somewhere, "Various statutes supplement the provisions of Chapter 37 to criminalize activities that jeopardize the national defense or national security."

IANAL ;)
Spot | Full-Stack Engineer, 3D Engineer | Seattle, WA (US-remote encouraged) | spotvirtual.com

Help build your ideal remote working experience and join our mission to make online interactions more meaningful. We are building team chat 2.0: a streamlined work experience inside the browser that combines the efficiencies and utility of tools like slack and zoom with the cultural and human elements of a spatial experience. If you are interested in game dev, this is probably the closest thing that comes with a web dev salary. Our team is small, but experienced, and this would be a ground-level role that would provide an opportunity to help shape the technology and company in a really foundational way. Our founders are experienced and most recently founded a Seattle startup that has achieved unicorn status.

Our stack is Typescript, Babylon.js, React, Apollo/GraphQL, and Nest.js. Everything is built on top of AWS using modern tooling and automation (e.g. pushing a commit will trigger a deployment). We are looking for someone who has some familiarity in the tech stack and is excited about the space. This position will be remote, but the ideal candidate will be one who enjoys/misses many aspects of a physical workplace.

I used to play with this as a kid. I have eye floaters[0] that tend to drift down to the bottom of my eyes, so I would saccade my eyes up to bring them to the center of my vision, then focus on the floaters and smoothly watch them on the way down (which actually just kept them centered since I was matching the tracking rate to their falling speed). I was kind of a weird kid.

"Go and learn. Skills are not set in stone."

Sure, but learning takes time, which I have little of. It's also much easier for some than others (getting significantly more difficult as I age).

The main remote issue is that my wife interrupts me to do stuff or answer questions throughout the day. I also feel I'm slower to learn remotely. I think that if I'm an expert in the tech already, then remote could work.
At least here in ireland, the legal mandated contribution to the public health system is called Employer's PRSI, and usually most big tech employers will pay for private health insurance also (albeit private health insurance is priced much more reasonably here, due to needing to compete with the public system with its capped patient costs).
A lot of the funds go to bureaucrats running various targeted problems--so they spend like 80% of the funds on salaries of employees instead of it going to directly to the people who need it. We have too many programs--we just need one comprehensive program that gives them housing vouchers and assigns a social worker. And if you use drugs in public or steal--you get put in a halfway house or something. We need to do what Europe does... they have compassion but they enforce the law. US is the worst of all outcomes--expensive and getting nothing out of it.
What a ridiculous way yo frame things. Assuming wikipedia is correct, Atari sold 4million units, C64 sold ~17. So I guess Macs are "also-ran" compared to Windows PCs as Macs have an even lower market share (currently 9%)
> a huge amount of websites only allow gmail and a few other hosts

Is that actually true? I’ve never seen a single site that didn’t allow me to log in with a ‘regular’ email address, even if they pushed Log in with Google first
Actually, building people structures where the world doesn’t support something else disrupts the world less than clearing otherwise usable land. LV is approximately cleared gravel because it is so dry. Opportunity costs, etc etc.

This is clearly an area to think at a larger, national level like the thinking which led to the Hoover Dam and national highway systems. Anything less is shrinking away from the problem.
Email is a high converter and email addresses are practically a type of currency.
