This isn't that. My hostile working definition of a framework is something that

. breaks core assumptions about a language or system

. limits what a user is permitted to do

. increases complexities by adding new abstractions

. has non-specific specifications by using unclear and imprecise language

At the end you are hardly writing software. Instead you're deep into a world of new abstractions and are fundamentally limited by these abstractions.

Frameworks work at a subconcious level. They permit the users to be constantly busy as they chaperone codebases which would otherwise have long term stability all while staking the claim that it's the fastest and easiest solution.

Because frameworks exist primarily in a product space it's worth looking at their value proposition. Frameworks essentially act as a modern facilitator to what Frederick Winslow Talor called "Soldiering" in the text "Scientific Management". Essentially this means "the evasion of work or duty", the workers you wish to provide to have a vested interest in their own well-being and do not benefit from working above the defined rate of work when it will not increase their remuneration.

Normally a manager would have every reason to dismiss these programmers. To combat this natural inclination, a proper framework makes sure this is impossible by making them unfirable.

Given a product:

. Systems should not continue to function without the programmer

. Code has to constantly be rewritten in order to achieve the same ends

Also it permits the users to go on constant employer funded vacations to conferences and training sessions.

From a professional programmer's point of view, the primary goals of any framework are to provide the users with the following:

. Job security by ensuring brittle applications

. Endless tasks by ensuring endless complexity

. A sense of elitism and entitlement

. No expectations of deliverables

. Be vague enough so blame can get shifted if things break

By making every project asymptotically impossible to deliver vaporware, the ideal framework ensures that people are always doing something while at the same time nothing ever gets done.

The old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum they're on salary so they make it last as long as possible.

In trades where there's no guilds or unions, there's a tendency to create career protection through other forms of tribal qualification systems or arcane knowledge. Making things intentionally complicated so that only a select few people can comprehend them is a common way to capture and exercise power.

People adopt the patterns because they want to have the perceived protective properties of the obscurities.

Worlds of irrelevant relations and materially meaningless abstractions are essentially how fields such as fortune telling and astrology continue unabated. The form becomes the function and the elaborations its aesthetic.

...

Btw, this is a collections of excerpts from a 40 page document I have on the psychology and function of frameworks on how the most popular ones service human emotion that I've been working on off and on for a while.
And the whole thing with VC is that they've somehow figured out how to make money while being wrong 90% of the time. With those sorts of numbers, are you really doing much better than random chance?

I think your main goal is not finding who knows the Answer, but to identify who's lying about it. With those sorts of volumes of money you're going to attract fraud, and fraud can quickly break "throwing darts at a board" as a selection strategy.

If you can just select for people who are earnest and aren't lying to themselves too energetically, you can call it a day.
As an EM, I use documented standups to keep track of how long and when people work on tasks. When a person is under performing, this document is invaluable reference. When a person is exceeding expectations, this document helps me write their promo doc.

This could could be useful to manage that data better, but currently I use a Google Doc sheet.

That being said, I couldn't justify the cost of this tool to my manager when Google Docs does it well enough. Perhaps, this could be sold as a cost savings strategy for finding low performers?
I hope mining comes back because NVIDIA has destroyed all good faith they had from the gaming community.
Managed services are always more expensive than DIY FWIW. You're paying to make running the product someone else's problem.
This is what I've always seen too. I've never seen a residential ISP that allocates static DHCP addresses, they typically allocate in days which is why many people can maintain a leased address for months on end. Once you go offline though, all bets are off. Every ISP can determine if the subscriber is disconnected and if they are, they're going to reallocate your address. To your point, once the MAC address is changed, they have to issue a new IP address because using the logic posted above, the other address is allocated to a different MAC.
There are many levels of government from local to multinational. At most one of those levels can be sovereign, and democracy makes most sense on that level. On other levels, some degree of democracy is possible, but it's always subject to the consent of the sovereign state.

EU member states have voluntarily agreed that in some situations, EU law takes priority over national law. But because the member states are sovereign, it's up to them to decide how to proceed when EU and national laws are in conflict. The EU has only limited means to sanction member states that breach their laws. It cannot arrest and prosecute German lawmakers. It can't declare German laws invalid, except to the extent German institutions voluntarily follow EU rulings. It can't forcibly rewrite German laws. And in extreme situations, it can't declare Germany's Constitution unconstitutional and invalid, and it can't forcibly rewrite it.
Yeah, looks like the intended market is explicitly people who are already homeowners, in CA or WA, and have space for an ADU in the backyard, which they could use as supplemental income for renting. This is probably also why they point out the mortgage cost should be lower than rental costs in CA and WA (so you can attract renters). Although I assume 4.5% is actually more generous than you can get now.

(Side note, does anyone know if installing an ADU, where you live, qualifies for a primary residence mortgage or not? You won't live in the ADU, but you live on the same land as it.)

Otherwise, this is certainly too expensive, so the average person is not the market for this product. If an average person bought this, they're a bit foolish, probably better off buying existing property or trying to DIY a container home somewhere it's legal. Of course, the unit here itself looks quite nice, and I'd love to see them figure out how to lower prices and expand their market to customers who are aspiring homeowners, not people who already own and want some rental income.

You realize IBM does exactly this and has been doing it for decades? You call them up and request more memory and/or CPU and presto bingo! It's enabled.
Before I clicked through to the article, I thought maybe they were taking an image and spitting out a prompt that would produce an image substantially similar to the original.
My understanding as well though a lot of the details may be perf related..

Ultimately hooks are probably the way they are for the same reason Redux is the way it was(pre RTK I suppose)..
Git-restage: Ensure all diffs in currently staged files are staged
This is useful if you've got a set of files, `git add`ed them, but then found a typo or edited one or more of them (via prettier, delinting, deleting debug statements, adding more tests, ...), and want to make sure all those changes are staged and ready to be included in your next commit.
Anyone know if/when a 48GB card (4090 ti?) will be released?
At least in NYS, not only are the test criteria released, but there are actually previous years’ tests published for the purposes of practicing. https://www.nysedregents.org/elementary-intermediate.html

Their criteria is pretty basic “you need to be able to comprehend a 800-word news article”, and we are often failing to meet those standards with alternative education (which isn’t even just homeschooling, parochial systems have issues here too.)

At the end of the day, a service worker needs to be able to read the prices being wrung up on the cash register, and a factory worker should be able to read an instruction manual and safety rules. Not meeting those basic standards basically relegates you to a very small amount of jobs.
Law doesn't trump language when it comes to the truth. Nazis had laws too
Mapping the unknown – Steps to map any industry
Do you believe that your provided image is what they were going for? Or was it the image was streamed live everywhere? This [1] is C-SPAN's coverage, which is about as impartial as one can get. And they went from the framing that was entirely expected of them once Biden began to speak.

I would urge you to consider just how completely obsessive politicians are about every single aspect of appearance: the color of one's tie, the lapel of choice of the day, how you hold your hands while speaking, even the tint of your skin. That his speech evoked the worst of imagery was, unfortunately, not just an unfortunate accident.

This is a horrible take and I will definitely be buying a card at rock bottom prices once miners start dumping them big time.
If my bank lost all my money and said "hey, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?" I would definitely stop depositing money there.

I don't consider that "short term" thinking.
> Isn't the biggest problem with MV3 the 5000 rule limit?

Not really, the bigger problems come from the removal without alternative of a number of useful primitives that uBlock Origin used for blocking. See https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/338 for a detailed accounting of the changes and their impacts.
Voting provides legitimacy to the winner of the election and to the election process itself.

If you disagree with both of those things, voting has no positive and results only in negatives.
> You are hilarious, your crypto hatred has clouded your judgement. Since you have so much karma here, you don't mind saying silly things and losing points left and right.

First question, where do you think I got most of the karma? Sentiment here is broadly against crypto and has been for years (although it comes and goes). The pro side is loud, but enjoys far less support than you might imagine.

> Transmission of power is expensive and lossy.

No, it isn't. Transmission of power is super efficient. The EIA says the US lost only 5% of its electricity to T&D over the 2016-2020 period. [1] Expensive it may be, but that's not a reason not to do it. A single long power line from Boston to LA would only see ~25% loss from one end to the other. The whole Ohm's law thing (P=IV), we use transformers that are 99%+ efficient to raise the voltage to ~345kV and big fat wires to reduce current and resistance and hence transmission line losses.

> That's also why we picked that area... power was cheap because it wasn't being used.

It should be used to do something productive, not generate e-waste.

> Our GPUs are 'new old stock'. They were already produced, sitting in warehouses not doing anything, and would have gone to waste anyway.

Or, prices would have gone down and more people would have bought them. I can't see 3060s getting scrapped due to lack of demand when they were going for $850 a pop.

US librarians face unprecedented attacks amid rightwing book bans
He really should. I'd pitch in 50 EUR for that.
I don't enable DLSS IIRC.
> Harsh blocking/limiting/challenging is way too valuable to sites that are actually trying to make money online.

I'm not understanding the generalized sentiment here. How would, for example, a retailer benefit from this strategy? How does it protect their bottom line?

I can see how a particular kind of "facilitated user economy," such as games, gambling and promotional companies could benefit, but it doesn't seem that broadly applicable to what most people would consider a "mainstream" business.

> so we can lay off the IP-based reputation stuff and the geo-blocking: it's tying some form of personal ID to your browsing activity

And a new market for identity theft is born.

Also, as someone who serves content and geo blocks it, that's not up to me, that's up to the owner of the content or whoever happens to be licensing it for them. So, even if you sent me a picture of your government ID, it changes nothing.
Totally disagree.
Against hypersonic missiles, the only thing we currently have is "potential".

I can tell you from the physics involved, nothing short of a Star Wars type weapon will work --- either a laser or a particle beam.

And even with such a weapon, it will have to be extremely high power and capable of delivering a knock out blow almost instantaneously at long range. Hypersonic missiles are moving at about 5 miles per second and the flight path is constantly being altered so maintaining an accurate target lock for more than a second will be very challenging. The closer the missile gets, the harder the tracking becomes. And it gets closer very quickly.

If such a system existed (which it doesn't), it and an adequate power supply probably won't fit on a drone.

Frankly, I think an effective solution is decades away. Don't let your kid join the Navy and end up a sitting duck aboard a shiny big target (aka a carrier).
Mostly because functional components are understood to be the direction the framework is headed, with class components still supported for backwards compatibility reasons only.

They'll almost certainly never go away without a major version bump because it would break way, way too many sites, but at some abstract level people feel class components will have a shorter shelf-life than functional. And certainly, any given third-party integration to React in the future is allowed to just say "We only support functional components" (with the corresponding hit to popularity, of course).

Half of retail (which is still high) for a mining card with expired warranty? No thanks.
Pretty much. For those who possess average intelligence, centrism(compromise) and status quo maintenance is a decent decision heuristic.
How would you know if someone clicked and/or converted if it wasn't tracked? Sounds like smoke & mirrors to me.
I paid 1600€ for my last full PC (kept the old chasis and GPU) and 1700€ for my current work laptop. No, 1600$ (1900€ in Europe) is not cheap by any stretch of imagination.
Show HN: Tigris – open-source developer data platform for your next app
Tigris is the first truly open source developer data platform with a simple yet powerful, unified API that spans search, event streaming, and transactional document store. It enables you to focus on building your applications and stop worrying about the data infrastructure.
We were not at a scale where you would want to hire dedicated observability expert but with their pricing it totally made sense. My guess is their play is to get in early and get you locked in gud
Good analogy! And that makes logical sense …

My first thought was "I wonder if lockmakers are really protective of their methods / manufacturing process," but realized this information would matter little: the point is that it doesn't matter if people know exactly how the lock is made, because it doesn't make it any faster to open it, and I've only got 2 hands and 24 hours in a day and the time just isn't worth the risk.
Why use voting machines at all? Just stick to pen and paper.
RDNA 3 it is then I guess.
I am aware of that. No need for the data dump.

Unarmed rioters that were ignoring LEO instructions to stop trying to breach an area containing a number of politicians. There is every reason to believe that, had they breached, violence would have occurred. Acting as if their violent behavior was not the direct cause of their death just because they were unarmed is not reasonable, in my opinion.
How well does it run MS Flight Simulator?
> "Success" is a loaded term; it can mean wildly different things to different people.

This is so true that in the absence of qualifiers, I consider "success" to be a meaningless buzzword.
Congrats on the launch! Love the plugins architecture, looks very promising, especially for writing integrations with 3rd party vendors.
Totally depends on the ambition; perhaps it was never PG’s ambition to completely understand and “own” the target audience of HN, but rather wanted to delegate that responsibility, to focus on YC’s core users instead.

It may be precisely because of a tendency to understand and improve, that it is a mental sinkhole.
I think the point of the podcast was to make a case that "probably did it" isn't enough for a life sentence.

Unfortunately I think many people are uncomfortable with the lack of closure behind such a situation, but that's another angle of our justice system more people should probably be conscious of.
Robinhood is 100% a SV tech company and does not use "the cheapest labor".
I suspect licensing requirements have prevented HEVC from being adopted by streaming platforms; AV1 is an open and free codec in contrast.
Personally I would only call it "clickbait" if it didn't fulfill expectations. Instead it was an entertaining story.

HN would nitpick the second coming of christ until he apologized for it and agreed to start all over again.
Actually that's backward. Monthly plans are for UNlocked phones.

The idiotic thing about locked phones in the USA is that they're given to customers who are ON CONTRACT. Therefore, if the customer takes his phone to another network, he still has to pay the original one! Why on earth would the phone company want to prevent people from paying for service they're not even using?

The sheer stupidity of this behavior is almost worse than the offensiveness of the entire phone-locking concept.

As a PC gamer who's slowly losing interest in favor of console gaming...

I don't mean to sound ignorant, but how is any GPU comparable to a console.

For $500, I can get: a Series X and a controller, ready to play out of the box. With GamePass (currently $1 first month), I get instant access to a large library of games.

A current GPU (20, 30, or 40 -series) costs more than that, and I also need to purchase the additional components to put it all together.

I built a PC in college because it used to be the most cost effective option. But that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. These 40-series prices will define the cost for the next generation of cards, and IMO its too much to justify for casual gaming.
If the job is this bad, the other people are most likely going to be leaving too, all by themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if they activated their LinkedIn already. Asking them to go work together is nothing wrong.
There was a viral video of some PMs working from a pool. On one hand, it doesn't really matter where you work from as long as you get your work done. But on the other hand, I find it hard to believe that someone can have focus in an environment like that. It might be unpopular opinion online, but I think its entirely reasonable to put some restrictions on where you can work from home, if only to allay the feelings of colleagues. Ideally everyone would have a work environment where there is a set standardized output of X that needs to be produced by each employee in which case how it gets done is irrelevant. But in modern work environment, there is a level of trust and autonomy employees are granted. There are dark patterns people can use to minimize the amount of work you're doing without drawing too much attention. And sure, you can think cynically that you should do the minimum amount of work required, because your employer will pay you the minimum amount they have to. But that just sounds overly adversarial and could create a toxic environment and resentment amount colleagues. Not to mention its terrible for you in the long run.

I'm familiar with that perspective, and biased towards it... Cloudflare is certainly in such a position, but they are a relatively young company (for their size and reach) and I've seen good things come from them.

I'd guess the intent is unlikely to be anti-competitive or monopolistic, just over-aggressive. However regardless of intent their position does cause an absence of market forces to put pressure on fixing such issues - Similar to how it's become acceptable to have downtime when it's on AWS, because "everyone is affected".
Any concept projectable down to a single dimension can have a mean. Are there valid projections for certain contexts or at all is a decent line of inquiry.
Two other examples I can think of are Pokémon (the fifth edition I believe?) on the Nintendo Gameboy where the game will blend the low hp warning beeps into the music when it gets into the critical zone, but then quickly fade it into the background so it won't be annoying. In Nitronic Rush, the predecessor to Distance, the music will adapt to how cut down the players car is and in what mode it is. Flying, driving upside down and on walls will all introduce their own instrument mix.

Disappointingly, the successors of both games didn't feature those mechanics.
Yes.

California requires non-residents to file & pay income tax for any days worked in the state, regardless of where you live or typically work:

https://law.justia.com/cases/california/court-of-appeal/3d/2...

Sometimes the tax is fine-grained enough to be certain blocks, not just within state or city limits. For example, Portland, Oregon has an income tax (with mandatory employer withholding) for employees working in the downtown district, to fund public transit:

Misled techno-optimism mostly. A lot easier to secure a pen and paper election, but also a bit slower to count.

> The problem is that something pejorative on the surface is only meaningful to an end-user that is intimately familiar with the limitations of ManifestV3.

You don't need to be "intimately familiar" with the limitations of ManifestV3, a casual understanding, from perhaps an explanatory note in the description of the extension, is sufficient to understand such a name.
This can work, but you lose click tracking and most SaaS companies don't have a coupon input box or want to discount their product. Also, you end up on all the shady coupon sites pretty quickly.
this is how everything echos through time, no joke
What exactly do you think it's "locked" into a mobile app that shows a few web templates and forms? :)
Advertising is a judgement. It is a synthetic definition (defined but it's relationship to other concepts), but you want it to be analytic (ex: the number 5).

You completely dodge my point because it's a stake in the vampire heart of your non sequiturs.
Eat the bugs, live in the pod.
Sorry for that. I am a hardcore cyclist, I don't always realize that people are not as accustomed to the terminology.
Gestapo always trying to sneak its way back in silently in the background. And it's not just Germany either, it's quite annoying how backsliding into an anti-democratic surveillance state is now the default and needs to be constantly fought.

Perhaps it's "always has been", it's just laughably easy to do with software these days.
