This is basically what the Admin of the AS/400 systems at my current place told me. He says he has never seen one crash.
I genuinely believe that you consider driving more stressful than walking. I know for sure that many people don't. If you have time you can walk to the nearest busy intersection, stand and observe drivers. You will see that many are talking on the phone or with the passengers, check their phones, apply makeup and act in many other ways incongruent with the behavior of people in mortal danger. Moreso, people routinely fall asleep while driving and I am not aware of people falling asleep while walking. This implies that driving is more relaxing than walking.
I am highly skeptical of SV VCs. The newest over-valued startups like Fast (dead), Clubhouse (dying) and others have produced little revenues for their staff and they cannot justify their 97% inflated valuations.

No matter the amount of billions they have raised, I still set in stone the same evergreen statement that 90% of startups in general fail. The exact same statement is absolutely true with crypto companies and projects just like Helium, especially with VC money which despite their inflated $1B valuation have generated $6K a month (in revenue), which is beyond pathetic.

When all the cheap money goes away, not many of these useless tech startups or crypto companies will survive this crash.
Definitely wanna make it harder. but as it stands it takes out about 2 thirds of applicants. I get feedback such as "I can't submit any data on that page because there's no form to submit". -> people with certificates and 8+ years of experience according to their CV.

You overestimate many people out there. These are the people I wanna filter out. Even if this is the first time you see an API endpoint like this, it's a google search away to figure it out.

As it stands it tests for:
- reading docs;
- using google;
- detail-orientedness;
- knowing how to use git;

and that's about it. Many people do not pass this test in the real world, HN is a very specific demographic with a lot of skills compared to the average person who calls themselves a developer.

But what you suggest is for Q1 next year: https://trello.com/b/YlUmnkGt/pre-screendev-feature-roadmap

Definitely wanna test more skills, without making it too long of a test for someone experienced.

Cheers for the feedback!
The whole article is a fun read, especially for Simpsons fans, but this section is very much Hacker News-esque:

Then came the issue of how to illustrate the book. Laurel and her agent had been trying to make the project a reality for years, and after talks with Disney Publishing and The Simpsons writers, red tape got in the way of it being an official Simpsons cookbook. So Laurel signed a deal with Adams Media, which had experience in the legalities of unofficial cookbooks (Game of Thrones and Downton Abbey, for example) and helped navigate the project to publication. One of the loopholes was avoiding any imagery from The Simpsons, so Laurel says they had to be “creative” in how they designed it – “not just pictures of Homer drooling”. Using fun illustrations by Priscilla Yuen, a distinctively Simpsons-esque typeface, a colour scheme heavy on the yellow, and photographs by Harper Point that depict some of the most delicious final dishes in all their glory, the book is a loving tribute to the show and Laurel’s dream project. “My voice is very much in there,” she adds, on the benefits of going “unofficial”.

Monday is a medium-sized company of 50+ people located at the beautiful Fischmarkt in Hamburg. We are 13 years old and value good working conditions and fair treatment. The company is very transparent, and we have happy employees.

We have three big areas, 1st realizing projects for our mostly enterprise customers, mainly with the Content Management Systems CoreMedia and FirstSpirit (Both Java). Lately, there are also small projects with Strapi (TypeScript). On the Frontend, we try to use modern tools like React and TypeScript, although every so often it's not possible / needed. The 2nd area is our in-house product, Monday Webforms and the third area is classic consulting where we support our clients directly in their projects, though still with programming.

We are mostly seeking people with experience, but if you think you are a good, passionate developer, feel free to write to me personally at frontend@monday-consulting.com.

We have a great company culture, and you can decide yourself, how many days you would to come to the office (from 0 to 5, everything is possible). Furthermore, we offer fair and flexible time tracking, where you can reduce or increase your hours easily between 30 and 50 per week (40 is normal). All your extra time gets logged, and you can save it indefinitely for a sabbatical / days off or get monetary compensation for it. We offer complete flexibility, one of our workers has been working from Argentina in the last three months without problems.

If you have any questions, contact me (Oskar) at frontend@monday-consulting.com

Sure it is. Intel's failure to deliver much in the last decade has become a macroeconomic drag, since demand has shifted to competitors with limited manufacturing capacity -- look at the impact on chip shortages on cars, for example.

It's creating different challenges for AMD and Intel though.
Yes. Shop around. Hint: you could probably double that.
You can do this. I do. Known numbers only and whitelist school, doctor, etc. If you really wanted to go further you could have a second number via google voice you only give to those places. Maybe even tie notifications on that to your calendar where you put your kids events.

Elastic File System (AWS) | All Engineering Roles | Boston, NYC, VA. | Full-time

EFS is cloud native file system built from the ground up at AWS. We have tons of interesting distributed systems challenges at scale and are obsessed with delivering value for our customers. Here's a great talk about EFS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3eAFPEJTbs. You can also check out this recent NH article: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30345921

Mostly we are a back end team working on internal services that make up EFS. We use lots of Java, C/C++, python for various tools, typescript for CDK, and a smidgen of Rust. If you never want to touch web development we can make you pretty happy. If you like web development - well we also have those roles as well (but less of them).

Engineers who do well at EFS have a passion for diving deep and reasoning about cloud scale systems. I think it's pretty interesting but I'll admit I am biased :)

I don't think this model actually works in practice, because mobile traffic vastly eclipses web traffic for almost every kind of web application.

Tricks that work on desktop - where a web application might stay open in a browser tab for weeks at a time - don't apply on mobile. On mobile, I'm much more likely to drop into your app for a few minutes to achieve a single goal, then navigate away and un-load it again.

So assuming that I'm going to pay that loading price once and then keep interacting with your application doesn't actually work - most of my interactions with your app will be a cold start, often with an empty cache too since browser caches on mobile devices (especially cheaper Android phones) are much smaller.

> > trusted civic authorities

> They'll need to be resistant to threats and bribes, so it will be difficult to have these on-site at the library.

That's why I mentioned things like APP: some people do have a threat model where that's realistic but it's a much smaller number than the people who are inconvenienced by being locked out so it seems like it'd be a net-win for most people to be able to get unlocked easily. There are also ways to mitigate some of that risk like having notifications for all actions with an easy way to report unapproved requests, geographic restrictions, enforced MFA for the civil servant (“tap your FIDO token to approve this request”), rate-limiting, etc. which are all bread-and-butter tasks for one of the major tech companies.

The other thing I think is relevant here is the degree to which things fall back on civic authorities anyway — e.g. Facebook's process where they require scans of your government ID or the various ways you can report a deceased relative. It seems to me like it'd be better to embrace that and work better together rather than pretending there isn't already a fairly large trust relationship.
...aka "Socialism with Scandinavian Characteristics".
The biggest concern is that there doesn't seem to be a concrete end goal for when you can have children. From what you've written, your partner is 25, has an IUD, and communicated that she doesn't want children for the next 10 years. The endpoint of "probably after I finish all my goals/traveling" is so vaguely defined, that it could never happen. One can spend a lifetime pursuing goals and traveling.

You likely already considered the fertility odds, but to add context, according to a resource approved by the department of health for Victoria, Australia [0], the odds of having a child increasingly drop from age 35 onwards. There are also likely risks for men trying to have children after the age of 40, according to a balanced article on WebMD [1].

Negotiation is an option besides an ultimatum, and I actually think most opinions on the internet about relationships go for breakups far too soon. You have valid concerns that you can address with negotiation; in specific:

1) There is no clarity for the timeline of having kids (10 years plus after a vague goal of reaching all other goals of your partner).

2) From the tone of your partner, it's possible she doesn't seem to be taking your valid concern with seriousness, though perhaps serious conversations may just didn't come to mind at the time you wrote your comment.

3) Your partner hasn't seriously discussed the fertility implications of having children that late, at least from the contents of your comment.

To compromise, consider the red lines. Would you be willing to stay in the relationship without kids? If the answer is "no," it's almost inevitable you will be resentful and the relationship is likely to have a very negative effect on your life.

Would your partner be willing to have kids? If the answer is "no," it's also almost inevitable she will be resentful if she reluctantly goes into it; if the answer legitimately is "yes, but after a certain point of time," then you have room to work it out. The compromise solution is to have a specific endpoint when you will try for kids (with a clear "yes" for trying for children at that point). If there is none, moving on may be a hard decision but the right one for personal happiness for both people in the long-term.

As with any online advice, please take this comment with a huge grain of salt because there is an enormous amount of information and nuance lost when communicating a situation over text (or even over a conversation in person). However, the main principles of compromise—knowing each others' red lines, and account for possible long-term resentment due to agreements favoring one side disproportionately—may hopefully still be helpful. Best of luck to you.

>the comment is still objectionable

No it isn't, there are plenty of people including me who believe that those things are mostly mental illnesses and\or trivial categories invented for novelty's sake. "Objectionable" implies that it's a mainstream opinion that those things are normal and healthy and the fringe opinion is that they're not, if anything, it's the reverse.
Most of the people you listed don't run Linux desktops at Google. Of those that do, most are able to manage their own OS.

For your probabilities, you describe many issues that aren't big issues at Google. Phishing credentials is mitigated by mandatory FIDO tokens, binary whitelisting heavily reduces installs of malware, security policy isn't needed on these desktops (really just needed for mobile devices incl laptops).
None of this is related to technology and the best Google could do is expend resources on education.

For tech illiterate, maybe the least bad option is that their security is that they won't lose their wallet. I think this is one of those situations where security has to take a back seat to usability.

1. Create a passphrase with this method: https://xkcd.com/936/
2. Write down your passphrase.
3. Write down recovery codes, and keep them in your wallet.

> they don't lose access to their buildings because the janitors walked away with the keys

... You are actually ascribing a larger amount of have-their-shit-togetherness to Google than may be strictly true. Without telling too many stories that aren't mine, I'll say "Usually. They usually don't." ;)

But to extend your analogy a bit... Google doesn't lose physical access to their headquarters because security is not a third-party vendor. They keep the mission-critical stuff in-house. That would translate, analogously, to individual homeless or elderly people running their own mail servers (infeasible)... Or, perhaps, libraries running mail servers and providing accounts for patrons tied to their library cards (might be actually, maybe, feasible?).

> When people start using Gmail, they don't expect to someday lose access to their online banking and utility bills and all the rest, and by the time it does happen to them and they decide to look for a competitor, a lot more damage has been done due to missed bills, etc.

You're absolutely right, and the back stop is almost certainly to make people aware of this very significant risk factor in using Gmail instead of alternatives.

> If regulation improves the terms the users agree to so they have some way to get reasonable help from customer service and Google finds that too expensive, they can either charge for Gmail or shut it down.

If such regulation is impossible at the scale of serving 1.5 billion customers, which I assert it is until somebody can provide a practical road map for getting to that scenario, then your recommended remedy for "Gmail doesn't work reliably for a subset of its users" is "Deny its benefits to all of its users." That seems strictly worse than a solution where we encourage people to be conscious of their risk tolerance before signing up for service with a company that can't guarantee they won't get locked out of their account with no easy method to unlock it.

> By all accounts from those who have worked for him, he is heavily involved and pretty hands on in terms of engineering and design.

I've heard that too, but I've also heard that he kind of goes in, drops a bomb on his engineers, like "This needs to be 25% more efficient by next year," and then leaves it to them to figure it out -- even if it isn't technically possible.

Sometimes the breakthroughs are very hard but actually possible (like reusable launch systems at SpaceX) and sometimes they're just not possible (like reaching L4/5 SDCs in a few years without even having LIDAR).

So the question I'd ask is, can anyone achieve a few breakthroughs if they constantly repeat this formula?

1. Make huge promises about advancements in technology.

2. Hire excited engineers.

3. Give them lots of money and unreasonably optimistic deadlines.

4. Repeat.

Musk himself hasn't succeeded seemingly even 50% of the time with this formula, but he is one of the few people with enough money to keep trying it over and over again.

Google is the same: they have so many moonshots, one of them was guaranteed to be a breakthrough like Waymo while a lot of the others were going to be more like Loon[1] or Calico[2].

Fwiw, it seems to be true in UK that people without legal training think most of what they see in the media about "the law" relates to them. Things like Miranda rights. I assume that's just because most of our A-tier media comes from USA.
