Is there an example you have in mind where they were objectively wrong and did not admit it?

In the examples I've seen their decisions generally seem reasonable and well-considered, even in cases where I disagreed with the outcome. The most I can say is that it might benefit some contributors to consider tone and messaging a little.

With respect to closing tickets, unless someone is paying for the work I generally close feature requests that aren't compatible with a project's vision. Focusing is about saying "no" and building every feature every user requests eventually results in a bloated, unmaintainable project.

Finally, with respect to downstream vendors and projects that incorporate pieces of the GNOME shell into their own software the GNOME team has made it pretty clear that (for better or worse) their focus is their own desktop environment. Asking contributors if they're willing to do additional work to support outside projects is reasonable, but demanding that they do so is not a good look.

If you realize how much money these colleges make and have in their endowment, then you understand any less of an amount won't even register with those who run the college. It seems like the amount awarded is actually on the low side and should probably have been higher to send a message to not join the "woke" mob and get the whole story before acting. Yes, I would say the same for "alt-right" mobs as well.

After listening to some experts speak about this, I don't think that's the case. One cited a lot of large apps as sources of data, especially free apps that offer a good service. Waze keeps getting brought up in this debate as well, though I'm unsure if it is used in this context.
You could do that... if you had no knowledge of geopolitics and demographics.
I agree with all of this except for TikTok ads being obvious. To me, it is not at all obvious which ones have the little "sponsored" at the bottom.
I don't think I implied causation as much as symptoms of decline. In this case we're talking about a large percentage of people who are entering what is historically considered adulthood, 16+, who intend to apply themselves towards a career that (arguably) doesn't offer much utility to anyone. So the ghosts of Ancient Greece would see this as part of the decline of the American civilization and I don't think they would laugh, shrug their shoulders and say, "the kids are alright".

I'm completely on board with getting a long, full life out of a laptop.

The only problem is that we've got plenty of thought-to-be-durable laptops around that are complete garbage, including a high-end Thinkpad. It's really sad to see.

That said, our M1 MacBook Pro, an X1 carbon, and (very surprisingly) a Microsoft Surface Laptop Go (the cheap one that had terrible reviews - but with the SSD) are looking excellent in terms of long-term durability.
According to weather.gov [1] the temperature of Salt Lake City has never exceeded 100 in September. This is making me question the rest of your comments.

[1] https://www.weather.gov/media/slc/ClimateBook/September%20Ma...
I think it's worth pointing out that the impacts of climate change are often presented as singular effects: rising sea level, warmer summers, increased drought, etc. But as we can see here there is also a very strong interaction effect between all of these (and it tends to magnify the issues rather than having them cancel out).

This is also why many major climate reports tend to inherently be on the conservative side: it's really, really hard to correctly model these interactions so you can only earnestly report the predicted change in individual variables rather than the impact on the system.

And keep in mind this is not the "new normal", we're entering a period of transition that will not end within our life times. The rate of CO2 accumulating the atmosphere is accelerating and the rate of methane in the atmosphere is rapidly accelerating. We will likely see a blue ocean event in the next 20 years and it's really hard to imagine how that will even play out with the global climate, Thwaites glacier could collapse without much warning (very rapidly causing sea level rise beyond our current projections), the AMOC slow down could reach a tipping point, etc.

Everything we're witnessing now will in the future seem relatively mild.
At one company I worked for, a requirement in the IT department was to watch Office Space. That company was a management consulting company. Essentially, we were the IT department for the Bob & Bobs. As Machiavellian as that company was, the IT dept was different and felt like "we're in this together".
Until now I assumed that all pacemakers were nuclear powered, since I read about this as a kid in some children's science book. It's come as a surprise to find out they're unusual.
As a counterpoint, I also use PlantUML a lot mostly with C4 and I thought the bidirectional interaction looked very cool. I think one benefit might be getting those who don't think in specific syntax and code involved in progress elaboration of the diagrams by using the GUI portion.

This person clearly didn't actually step on any of these.

#4 is NOT Lego ABS, it is another Lego plastic and is actually quite "soft" and will bend easily.

#5's clips are really too small to be incredibly painful - you need something more like #2.

And if you really want to suffer you will step on something like the off-brand Hubelino Marble Run pieces: https://www.hubelino.com - they, unlike Lego and Duplo, have extremely sharp edges on the blocks, perfectly molded 90° angles. Almost all Lego and Duplo bricks actually have slightly rounded (rounded rect!) corners.

And walking on a entire floor of bricks won't be that bad, as they will move aside like walking on sharpish gravel. The real pain is when you hit a lone brick on a hard floor.
Its not really an option. In the countries referenced by the article, the Government is the telecom monopoly or there is a few which will listen to the government.

It seems like an amazing coincidence that they were able to work out so much about how this happened. It makes you wonder how often this happens and noone finds out.
This is why anything remotely “smart” that I own and use can be self managed. Relying on the “cloud” and longevity of companies is asking for years. I hate that crap.

Nah, it's not that bad. Decent mechanical keyboard switch is specified for 100 million clicks [1, or google for "switch million actuations"]. Surely good engineering can eek out another order of magnitude. Not to mention - pacemaker leads ("wires"), the only part that bends, have way less stress on them (= larger bend radius) compared to a keyboard switch. Oh, and technology of multi-strand wire for redundancy is a very well established and understood one.

I worked for a similar company that put in real effort to make quality, well-designed, native Android apps to match the iOS offerings. I left in 2019, so my info might be out of date.

On iOS we inevitably made anywhere from 2x to 10x the amount of money through IAPs. No matter how good or fast the Android app was, no matter how many good reviews, no matter if we saw 2x or 3x or 4x as many installs on Android.

If our clients wanted to actually profit, the answer was clear: do iOS first, and then decide whether an Android version is even necessary.
It’s a September record, not a summer record.

The previous record for September 1 and all of September was 100 degF.

The record for June is 107.
The record for July is 107.
The record for august is 106.
OK, so maybe the question then is “how many years is ‘almost a century’?”

Any practical grass-roots mesh wireless network would have to be built using commodity consumer WiFi hardware. People aren't going to go out and purchase spread spectrum radios, especially not in developing countries where governments are most likely to kill Internet access.
MuleSoft might also be a good analogy here, and they've owned that much longer, and by all accounts, was a successful acquisition.

It's not Work-to-rule, though. The intent is different and actions taken under the term "Quiet Quitting" are only a subset of Work-to-rule. With Work to rule the intent is to negatively affect the business in the context of labor relations as an alternative to a strike. With quiet quitting the intent is not kill yourself by giving free labor to your employer.

I find the whole discussion about "Quiet Quitting" absolutely absurd.
"I'm hiring you to work 40 hours a week."
"I accept."
"I want you to work an extra 20 hours a week for free."
"No."
"What are you, 'Quiet Quitting' or something? You trying to go on strike?"
being supportive of an endeavor doesn't mean being okay with your executives laying key parts of their own job description (remember, it's the CISO's job yo get buy-in, not the CEO's) at your feet and telling you that it's hard to do because "some people don't want to be convinced"

in your example, the CEO might continue to listen while the head of security explains why it's worth more than that 30% loss to secure the systems

examples might include the cost of lawsuits, the cost of regulatory action, the risk of actual harm to people (customers or otherwise), the cost of reputational damage, etc... security has to economically justify its internal projects just like every other department does
My 2013 MacBook became so unreliable that it was unworkable. Getting 8 years from a laptop is pretty good, but in terms of speed I could have gone another two years, no problem.

My main concern buying old PC laptops is screen quality. It still possible to buy a laptop with a shitty screen in 2022, even a brand new one.

Company issued laptops are also weird. If you replace laptops every two years, the why buy the top of the line model? Sure some jobs just benefit from the exstra resources, but even many developers could easily do with less.
Why would you want "a little" static typing? What does that mean? I used to write python in vim and hated it, made tons of mistakes that were time consuming to find. Type hinting religioussly and using pylance in vscode sped me up a great deal. But I still make those mistakes sometimes, and they are still troublesome to find. Sometimes they pass unit tests because the types are off in the test too. I think a compiled strongly and statically typed language with excellent type inference is the best of both worlds, freedom with a safety net. The problem with interpreted or jit languages is that even with strong typing, inference won't save you until runtime. I'm enjoying julia, but finding type errors at runtime is a downside.
Going to need a source for that claim - generally the largest industry in a given area is government, then hospitals or schools, then some specific niche. I don't think there's any airplane manufacture in NorCal anyway - this would be a bit more believable about Wichita.
I used KDE back in the 2004-2007 time frame then switched to GNOME. Back then, I think GNOME was similar enough to KDE that I hardly noticed much difference. I haven't used KDE since then, but I take it for a spin every 2 years just to see what's going on:

* Ubuntu KDE (Kubuntu 22.04) is one of the few Ubuntu flavors (I think Lubuntu was the other one) that would not automatically scale the font for my 2560x1440 14" screen. So I literally could not read anything in the Installer. I had to peer through a magnifying glass to make it through the installer. Even after logging in, the fonts were so small, I had to keep using the magnifying glass to find the Display (or Monitors?) control panel to set that 175% or 200% option (or was it the 1600x900 screen size option).

* Some (most?) of the various desktop icons seem to be specified in raw pixels. For example, the task bar at the bottom was set to some pixel size which was impossible to read on my laptop screen.

* The KDE UI paradigm seemed familiar, like Windows XP or Windows 7. But the enormous number of configuration options seemed overwhelming for someone who doesn't use KDE all the time.

I normally spend most of my time in the Terminal window and the Firefox browser. I actually don't do a lot of stuff in the graphical desktop. So I want my desktop to be functional but stay mostly out of my way and not require too much configuring and maintenance. KDE always seemed a bit too high maintenance for me.
In that case, I'd say Conway's Game of Life evolved into an unintended end-user programmable tool, or folk interface, where people figured out how to build logic circuits, Turing-complete programs, and eventually the Game of Life itself.

These examples seem to show that there's a kind of wisdom and creativity of the crowd, the folk, collective behavior.

So are you only in favor of protests if they don't disrupt the general public? How do you feel about the sit-ins in the US during the Civil Rights movement? Or mass protests against the Vietnam war? These things were very disruptive to everyone, even the non-wealthy. Did you feel like the response to George Floyd's death in the US was wrong, too? The riots, enormous protests, etc.?

> Marches, showing the strength of feeling via the number of participants, have been successfully many times and cause little disruption other than closing some streets in the city centre.

But these _do_ cause disruption. Surely the family on the way to the airport could still miss their flight if a protest forms in response to Roe v. Wade being overturned, right?

Also, it doesn't _seem_ like there are very strong class divides when it comes to concerns over the climate crisis [1]. I'm curious what you're basing your belief off of that working class folks don't care enough about the climate crisis to support protests in favor of change?

This is also ignoring the fact that whether or not lower income people care about the climate crisis, the protestors still make good points. Climate crisis is an issue whether or not people are principally concerned with heating their homes and feeding their children, so it doesn't invalidate the protestors points, right? If people are more concerned about food safety, that doesn't mean the protestors advocating for changes to our response to climate crisis are mislead, or not caring about issues of food safety/affordable energy, or anything. You seem to be thinking that we should only protest against maybe one thing at a time, regardless of the future consequences, and that thing should be decided by what the working class is concerned about. That doesn't make much sense to me.

Ask HN: How do startups/lean teams successfully handle mat/pat leave?
Husband and I are expecting our first kid. We have decent mat/pat benefits for the US (3-4 mo each) but manage lean teams and are stressed about the impact our leave will have on our teams & us when we return.

If you're manager of a lean team or startup, how have you effectively handled your or an employee's mat/pat leave when in reality, your biz is already short-staffed? Temporary promotions? Contractors? Spreading the work across the team?

(To be clear, both our companies are supportive of leave, so this isn't a question about whether to take the leave or working during leave.)
> This brought kids to find refuge in videogames or the internet in general and be overall very lonely.

On CentOS 5.7 and later on Dell you would be correct. Prior to 5.7 there was a bug specific to cstate management and the Dell BIOS that required a work around. This was not optional for CPU latency specific workloads. Good enough was not good enough based on application benchmarks. The bug was worked around with multiple fixes in the 5.7/5.8 timeline. Dell also released a BIOS fix that worked around this as well around the time that CentOS 6 was released but we stayed clear of .0 releases and the BIOS fix had a dependency on the kernel released with C6.

There'd be reasonable aesthetic reasons to do these things, from a deniability standpoint. Though I guess that doesn't help if you're under a regime where accessing an unauthorized satellite service is straight up banned.

I don't disagree with what you're saying, but whatever (little) type safety C has can still be put to good use for the purposes of the article. The problem he's outlining is that you have two kinds of strings: "clean" strings and "tainted" strings, and you can only get a "clean" string from some kind of escaping function that returns "clean" strings. That's the typical problem you solve with types, and it's been true forever, even in old versions of C.
Who in this thread is claiming that astronauts are not impressive? Of course they are, especially to me as an adult.
