Sure, but I still appreciate the ergonomic benefits that come with having developed the ability to recognise these patterns.
We're about 1 year into development of a Quarkus application and I'm still a big fan. The fast startup and hot-reloading are amazing for rapidly iterating. Most importantly, it's really easy to reach a Quarkus developer if you have any questions. They also have a YouTube series "Quarkus Insights" and they do live stream events where you can ask questions.

It's true the documentation initially feels a bit lacking for the Getting Started scenario. But now I really appreciate the Guide format (essentially How-To's). Whenever I need to accomplish something, there's a guide for it.

With that said yes I still wish there was less magic in the Java ecosystem. Some years ago I toyed with Clojure a bit and I had some issue related to sessions with the popular Ring HTTP library. I viewed the source code on Github and was amazed that it was all vanilla Clojure. And even for a novice Clojure dev it was written in such a basic style I immediately understood how the whole library worked and found the solution to my problem.

The Art of Deliberate Imperfection (2017)
The Steam Deck's Sales Pitch for Japan: Inappropriate?
No, it is not the opposite. That suggestion is just restating the question. They already tried to build a system that uses merit and qualifications alone, and the complaint is how doing that has led to extremely biased results.

There is nothing wrong with disagreeing on how the decision is made, but the piece itself is poorly written, intentionally inflammatory, and insulting. There are maybe two valid suggestions buried within a bunch of nonsense, which shouldn't be the case for such a short article. It always disturbs me how anyone is willing to publish these terrible, low quality op-eds. And then when people get angry at them for their writings being low-quality, insulting and inflammatory, they have the nerve to complain that people don't want to hear the rest of their opinions... Instead of, you know, addressing the issue that caused the anger and changing the bad opinions accordingly.
A better article would have been "Poker is just Chess now". With the advent of poker solvers, poker can hardly be considered a game of luck and a lot of the preparation done for poker is eerily similar to the preparation done for chess (memorizing of opening range vs memorizing of opening lines, studying of early, mid and late game strategy vs studying of flop, turn and river strategy etc).
Very few people are going to be able to follow in your path, which is why looking at statistical outcomes is a much better way to analyze features of a choice.
An angle I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere is... what if this was like Apple buying Next?

Adobe wouldn't be really buying the product for market reasons, but rather the expertise and leadership. Or who knows, maybe they want to put the Figma CEO at Adobe's helm in a couple of years.

I've never done super long runs (anything over 20 miles) but I just find it too boring. I can listen to a podcast or something but unless I'm running in a new area its just moving kinda slowly through spaces I've already seen.

I've switched to biking now which tends to help my restless mind much more. I'm moving faster, I have to lock in more because when I'm going 15 mph or higher I cant zone out like I do when I'm running, and I can see more/new places if I want to.

The relief policy has been terribly irresponsible:

* Those who sacrificed and paid off their student debt receive no reward. Those who put 10k in ink or vacations on the books get a 10K payday.

* People are now incentivized to not pay off the last 10K of their debt until there is an answer if relief will be enacted or not

* The policy smacks of "vote us back in or else 10K wont be yours"

In general I am strongly against policies which change the rules on and penalize people who sacrificed to better their life and better those who made relatively worse choices (or choices with known tradeoffs, but then the tradeoffs get mitigated at the expense of those who did something more taxing for a reward). You can tax the wealth out of those who chose to better their income, but you cannot tax the experiences (eg:travel) out of those who dissipated their resources today/in the past.

For example, bad news for those who never had a dream to be a Mech Eng, but did it anyways for the good of their family.

As a general observation being in America the past ~10 yrs I find America has a major problem with policies that pattern match this kind of subsidize the negative side of choices with tradeoffs to the detriment of someone else who made a sacrifice to receive a reward.
As someone who did IT at a public transit agency for a medium sized city briefly, this is all pretty accurate and similar at most public transit agencies. Even brand new busses are still using old hardware under the hood that requires special deutsch to serial cables that require windows 7 machines to interface.

Gaslighting Manipulates Reality
Surprising history of how electric vehicles have played the long game and won
The basic decision to make the heists a focal point of the game - drawing on the reaction to "Three Leaf Clover" from GTA IV - was a good one, yet it did make the overall experience feel shorter. A series of three short stories as opposed to one long arc.

Whereas in GTA IV, by the time you confront Dimitri on the island, I felt as if something was really accomplished and it was about revenge for what had taken place, over many years, not the just the handful of slights by a person whom the main characters got screwed by.
Gen Xers are mostly still 30 years from retirement. This is the work of the ownership class who are seeing their profits nibbled away by employees who want to be paid a fair wage for their labor and aren't afraid to change jobs because millennials and gen Z aren't going to "go the extra mile" without being compensated for it.

_Every_ map projection distorts reality in some way. There's simply no way to accurately portray a sphere as a two dimensional object without some trade-offs. The Mercator projection has some useful trade offs, which is why Google maps used it for so long (and still does as certain scales, I believe).

I don't believe the authagraph projection is even the best map projection for preserving things like shape and area (other projections such as the Cahill–Keyes projection or Dymaxion projection seem better for both).

But of course, if you want the least amount of distortion, just get a globe.
Gosh I find it takes a lot of mental effort to monitor the body while running. I spend a lot of mental effort balancing exertion among muscles (left-right, calf-quad-glut, legs-arms), tuning pace, "shifting gears" in terms of breaths per stride when terrain slope varies.

Some of the only reasonable journalism I’ve read in the past year has been from The Atlantic. I have a large group chat with friends all over the political spectrum and we all can engage with and appreciate it every time someone posts an article from there. In fact The Atlantic gets more links for us than just about any other publication. Really, what downfall are you on about?

I think the argument is that Figma might not exist in a world where such deals are blocked (or future Figmas may not come into existence if this deal is blocked), and thus would lead to more market harm than it would help. I'm not sure I agree with that reasoning, but it is plausible.

Yes that is fairly common with younger engineers.

It's up to senior engineers/tech lead/manager to detect that and then give feedback, helping that engineer grow.

It's also an important quality for an engineer to be able to take feedback and correct. Grit isn't the only important quality.
It is kind of hard to tell what the real goals are after reading different reports of the review. It does seem to be an internal only review and not something that will enlighten the public much.

Cite? I'm aware there was some kind of awkward law that meant to block domestic access to VOA-type stuff (IIRC, because it was feared the VOA or State Department was infiltrated by Communists or something like that) that got repealed, but that's a far cry from "since then its all out propaganda."

I mean, I don't think I've even seen a single VOA article in our local newspaper.

Another user posted about Teamshares (https://www.teamshares.com/). It appears to operate similarly: investors buy up companies and give them to the employees. I'm assuming some level of fee is given to Teamshares to continue operating.

Figma to me was what 'back to office managers' have dreaded, my entire last jobs return to office was predicated on the fact that 'you can't beat a good white boarding session'.

Figma is the best white boarding software I have ever used and it has made our team far more productive than I ever imagined. Once they start rolling out more end to end features (e.g. towards inDesign) Adobe was going to be losing out.
Good explanation. Thank you.

Yep, I've been doing this now for several years. I guess i got used to watching (and enjoying!) many films that are not in English, but 99.9% of the time its because of actors mumbling, or some background noise (in the film) not making it easy to discern what was stated.

Clearly desktop is too large a target to be solved effectively by a herd of cats. Lots of good intentions and half-standards, but no synergy or force to in darkness bind them.

I have been using Linux/Unix on desktop since the nineties, and while it has come a long way, it feels like that last 10-20 percent will never happen. It's that part that needs a manager with a large stick/carrot willing to make (informed) decisions and enforce them.

It seems he's outside of the US if asking for some type of monetary reward / bribe.

Which makes it a different game. Whether that's good or bad depends on what about the games you find appealing. Personally, these changes make the affected games boring to me.

> Reading these comments, it's strange to see that the "Java" paradigm/context issue still exists after all these years.

> I have never had significant problems with Java-the-language. But, like with many other programming languages out there, you can't really dissociate the language from the environment and everything that goes with it. The paradigms, VMs, IDEs, patterns and practices etc etc.

This is something I've been saying for years.

Java, as a language, is great. But Java paradigms are fucking awful, and I don't understand why people use them. However, I'll confess that I'm naive, as I've never had to build anything larger than about 1,000 lines.

Like...one of the patterns that I absolutely despise is the "Handler". So often, code is peppered with "MyHandler handler = new MyHandler(); handler.invoke(...);". If you have an object that consists of only a constructor and a single function, and is merely instantiated, called once, and then thrown away, why is this its own object?

I see Java developers complain about stack traces that are 50+ function calls deep with half the functions in the stack named ".invoke()" or ".run()", and all I can think is how those wounds are self-inflicted.
I was the same way, but it helped that I've more recently made a conscious effort to be process focused instead of outcome focus. Oliver Burkeman's book Four Thousand Weeks was good at reframing for me.
> “Research shows that advocating such views creates groundless fears of racial discrimination in college admissions [...]

Is this just saying that observing that colleges are discriminating against Asians (by rejecting their applications at a higher rate, such that less-objectively-qualified applicants of other races are accepted in their stead) makes people feel that Asians are being discriminated against? Because of course discriminating against someone makes it seem like there is discrimination afoot.

Someone I know worked on flash at adobe. Long before it was "dead" it was "dead". What killed it? According to my acquaintance it was Apple. Apple disallowed flash on iOS which adobe was counting on as being a big expansion of the flash market.

As for the dev environment around flash, according to them it was a nightmare codebase not for the faint of heart. It isn't surprising that adobe decided not to port it to WASM because it was a spaghetti mess.

There's a reason Flash was often a virus vector back in the day.

Correct. I don’t understand why you’re being down-voted for stating something that’s so incontrovertible. Neo-liberalism is an economic philosophy that aims to turn back the clock on Keynesian (or New Deal for the other side of the Atlantic) policies and return to “laissez-faire” capitalism of the 19th Century.

It’s orthogonal to social liberalism (or “wokism”), i.e., one could be an advocate of privatisation of state services and just as easily be socially conservative or socially liberal.
