That depends on how big the differences you're looking for are.

When you've got an early product, there are probably things you can do that 2x as many people will like as dislike. Even a small set of customers will be good for discovering this. When you've got a mature product, you should be optimizing around the edges and need a large sample size to find those 1% wins.

Likewise if you don't have scale, there are a lot of well-known best practices that probably improve your site by 5-10%. You probably don't have sufficient volume to discover test those ideas, so following general best practices is a good idea. But if you have scale, you can and should A/B test the heck out of everything. And then do it again in a couple of years in case the answer changes.
Yeah, I'd like someone to give me money while I yell whatever I want at them, but I don't see it happening. Good luck with that.
Just observing neutrally:

The lead that Tate Reeves is talking about is definitely in the opposite direction of what your implicit political stance's definition of taking the lead is.

It's not the classic left definitions like minimum wage increase, or potable water, or expected age, or access to a public defender.

I'm guessing it's things like having strict abortion control (or he would term it life preservation), or gun rights, or ability to reverse the Trump election results. Or, perhaps shockingly to the left view, "leading" in pushing laws so towns don't have the obligation to give potable water (and can avoid getting sued for doing so)!
This is very common.
Well we can't do much about what the Romans did. Muslim empires conquered Palestine in the 7th century yes, but they didn't widely displace the population. And even in the case of the roman, there was a large diaspora within the roman empire at the time, but not really a whole lot of systematic population replacment.

The colonists movement called Zionism (that is historically closely interlinked with other colonialist movement and has been ever since) that started after WW1 and hit its peak after WW2 and in 1948 quite clearly and explicitly have the goal of whole sale population replacement of the whole region.

The dominate right wing parties plans as far as we can tell is to import as many 'Jewish' people as they can and hope to decrease the amount of people in the West Bank and Gaza. They have pretty clear and deliberate strategy of long term ethnic cleanings, converting land that they agree in theory was gone be Palestinian and settling Israeli citizens on.

If there were Muslim empires from Persia invading Palestine still today, we should fight against that as well but that is long gone. However Israeli colonialism is still fully active and pushing forward literally every day.

As many people have already noted, Israel has practically made a two state solution impossible. The West Bank has been so carved up and systematically been destroyed as a viable state territory that its really can no longer function as such.

The Annapolis Conference was not close to solving anything, it was just another attempt at pressuring Palestinians to politically give more concessions. Bush and his Neo-Con allies had absolute no interest what so ever in a real Palestinian state. In fact Bush did nothing to prevent massive expansion of settlements during his terms and his presidency ended any series possibility of a real 2 state solution.

> Going to a store knowing the LTT driver is a rebranded Magapro, why would any consumer want to pay the markup besides the brand name?

It's not a rebranded Megapro, as the video goes into great details to elaborate on. But even if you just look at them, it's obviously not a white label rebrand. Which you (and OP) is obviously aware of by then also slamming it for having "unnecessary engineering". It can't both be a label rebrand and have unnecessary engineering - those are mutually exclusive, completely opposite ends of the spectrum complaints.

Whether or not the differences are worth $10 is a different question, and altogether extremely different in both scope & tone to the juicero comparison.

> they've added unnecessary engineering to a tool that doesn't require it

What unnecessary engineering?

My Rust is not strong, but in the AVX-512 solution, I don't fully understand how they're incrementing the input by a whole AVX-512 word (16xu32) by only doing input = input.offset(1); ? I'd assume that will increment their input array by only 1 single u32.

With the approach used here, it also looks like you'll write some garbage into output after output_end, which isn't a problem unless output was sized exactly equally to expected output and you attempted to write past the end of it via _mm512_mask_compressstoreu_epi32 .

My teams also likes to go to "sleep" on my machine and just ignore incoming messages. I am embarrassed to get the email from exchange that I've missed a message in teams.

This is on a machine that is dedicated to teams and has nothing else running on it. It's got it's own monitor, is always in the foreground, and is something I can always see from my desk.

That, and my calendar no longer shows the time bar. So, I can see all my meetings, but I have to guess based on distance where in the day it's actually scheduled.

There's no question there's a class of users these days that have limited use for apps other than their browser (and maybe Adobe Reader for signing/ form-filling PDFs, presumably that will be possible via a browser plugin soon enough too). Those users are presumably not HN readers though (there's at least 20 desktop apps I rely on every day, and another 20 I use weekly or more).

Edit: the Adobe website claims you can do form fill and sign of PDFs from within a browser, but it's never worked for me. Recently had to initial every page of a 78-page PDF, which my fairly beefy machine struggled a bit with (it was truly painful on my partner's lower spec machine), I'm curious how feasible that would be in a browser.

Because literally every form of media today constantly tells people that they need to be afraid of going outside, and most people buy it, even though our society (at least here in the US) is almost certainly safer than when they were growing up.

Interestingly, the pandemic altered this briefly in my neighborhood. Seemingly out of nowhere, for a few months in 2020 - our streets were filled regularly with walkers, dogs and children. There were new face-to-face conversations with people who had lived in the same neighborhood for over 7-10 years. There were driveway get togethers, cul-de-sac firepits and a renewed sense of community that went deeper than asking for a contractor recommendation or a cup of sugar. While the pandemic was horrible in numerous ways, this was one side-effect that was truly positive for my small piece of the world and has resulted in stronger, new friendships that I hope to continue.

In retrospect, could we have done this through social events or aggressive reach-outs - sure. But the apathy and distraction provided by using a car to go somewhere was a constant saboteur.
Well they will be using Edge Web View 2, their homegrown electron "alternative". What is puzzling is that they didn't even bother to port it to Mac or Linux before choosing to move away from electron.

So edgeview2 is basically windows only for now, and any future port will mean they'll have to maintain multiplatform support. And guess this announcement implies that they won't port it to Linux. But why do away with the "free" multiplatform compatibility of electron? The official reason was for increased performance, but it's hard to see how electron was the bottleneck considering how badly Teams run even compared to your average electron app. I mean Microsoft has built the best performing electron app I've ever used, vscode!

I'm probably missing something though, and I'm sure there are tons of good reasons for going the edge webview route, but it's still pretty confusing to me!

Interesting. In your answer, you focused on the stream of customers walking in the door, rather than on the welfare of the burger flipper or barista. Do I expect a burger flipper working at a hot grill to be just as safe in hour ten as hour eight or hour six of a given workday? No, I expect that burns, for example, are more likely at the end of long shifts than the beginning.

In addition, since humans are not machines, I expect that an extra day off might make workers more prompt and less likely to take six days at the beginning or end of a workweek.

At the time the trade unionists were fighting for our rights, the question wasn't burger-flipping, but generally factory work. The speed and accuracy at which a person working in a factory could produce goods safely diminishes beyond a certain point, and while it's probably closer to five or six hours for peak efficiency, employers were demanding ten- or twelve-hour days at the time, so a 50% reduction was a bridge too far. Still, through a combination of many different kinds of protest and some documentation that safety incidents climbed dramatically as workers grew more tired, they managed to get hours pushed down to no more than eight as "normal," with anything beyond that requiring overtime pay.

Henry Ford took the reasoning of the trade unionists, who had successfully pushed him into eight-hour days already, and took it farther. He reasoned that giving workers two days off instead of just one would enable him to push them harder, and get just as much work done while making happier employees, more loyal to him. Which worked out well for him, and 13 years later became the norm by law.

If you're talking about work which requires workers to be physically present for a set schedule, then yes, clearly capping each worker at 80% of hours would mean needing to increase staff by 20% to achieve the same result. But most businesses in which physical presence for given hours is important already have flexible scheduling to handle days of the week and times of the day at which business is busier.

If you're instead talking about, as you say, "any reasonable white collar job," then rather than letting only bold or clever people to get their work done in 32 hours while attending meetings to avoid raising eyebrows, it seems more reasonable to make that the norm, so that everybody can do the same. Then the receptionist can also work four days a week, with someone else filling in, rather than only those less visible.
I think ball lightning is likely responsible for a lot of uap sightings. It may explain the phenomena to such a degree that we can consider it solved. But to explain ball lightning I think we are going to need some pretty unusual physics. My bet is on electromagnetic solitons in 3 dimensions, there are a few cool papers on the possibility. My other guess is that they are energy based life forms that aren't especially intelligent, drifting through looking for energy sources, hence the preoccupation with nuclear power sites. Half joking. Watch the film "nope" it's an excellent twist on the mystery.
I don't buy the media blame thing on its own. It feels like there should be epidemiological research into it. For example, how is this generation's coffee intake different to the last one? Use of psychotropic medications? Different air pollution, less lead?

SEEKING WORK | Remote (Phoenix, AZ) | Fractional CTO / Full-Stack Web Dev (15+ years XP)

I have 15+ years experience leading teams (and personally as an IC) building full-stack web apps from MVP to Enterprise. I get the business side (founded multiple startups — cvtrack.com most recently), I understand good UI/UX design (5 years Director for design/development agency), and run efficient teams as a PM / technical lead or fractional CTO (5+ years as PM and fractional CTO).

My specialty is coming into existing startup (< 50 people) dev/product teams as a hands-on leader and swiftly rebuilding morale, aligning/managing priorities, managing expectations, and bridging technical/product gaps with leadership. I'm told that when I join a team, product development velocity skyrockets, sometimes by an order of magnitude. For less hands-on engagements, I consult around technical hiring, architecture (Senior Developer bandwidth where it doesn't exist), product advising, and technical strategy.

Because I'm so hands-on, as a full-stack developer I will also build web apps (solo or as part of a team) in a variety of languages and frameworks (PHP/Laravel, Ruby/Rails, Elixir/Phoenix, Python/Django) — and I merge it with good design understanding, product sense, and business value.

Previous client engagements: First Solar, Sophos, General Dynamics, among many, many amazing startups
Previous positions: Tuft & Needle (head of engineering), GoDaddy (product management)

Now if only we could get more reactors built. According to the New York Times, Diablo Canyon provides 9% of California's electricity[1]. It astounds me that a single generating station like that can provide a whopping 9% of California's electricity.

Assuming the same capacity, four more stations would take it to 45%. That's nearly half of your electricity for a state as large as California from a stable, reliable, and clean(-er than fossil fuels) source that drops into the existing grid. I know nuclear isn't perfect and building new reactors is a huge challenge but it's a great stopgap solution for the next 100-odd years until a sufficient amount of solar & wind can be deployed to replace the reactors.

Pigasus: 1968 Candidate for President of the United States
Truth be told, some jobs just involve little actual work.

The most typical example I've seen, are gov. / state jobs where one person was basically working 150%. Then they created an extra position to offload that worker, and suddenly you have two workers with 75% work. And if it turns out they miscalculated the need, because maybe the new worker is much faster / more efficient at their task, said worker is now only working 50% of the time.

Same goes for inefficient workers. I've worked with people that had zero knowledge in how to automate tasks, and would spend a whole day doing stuff in Excel, which could be automated to just seconds. No need for VBA, just basic macros would do the trick.
