I would say little self-hosted servers. Especially as infrastructure-as-a-service takes off and people look for alternatives. We all pile on to one person's Plex, Minecraft server, host our projects off of it, etc. Things like Raspberry Pis fit under this as well.

When was the last time you saw a “written in” be followed by PHP, Perl, Ruby, Python, C, or even JavaScript? I only see Rust as the language mentioned which makes me think the poster is looking to ride the Rust is popular train rather than looking for collaborators.
The pricing for All Products Pack was initially much less( $249.00 in 2016), and since then, it became one of the minor bills that you just pay because it is so little.

4. stackoverflow is user hostile towards rookies/newbies.

People and mods forget s that it is not easy when you are new and everything is new, you dont know exactly how things works, what to search for because you dont know the exact words etc etc. For someone new that wants to learn programing it could be very complicated to grasp everything. Even if it is a simple question or maybe stupid question for someone that is experiensed, an anwser could still be very useful for someone new to understand something and could dayes and weeks to finally figure it out by theself. Now people just downvote and closes questions supereasy and that could be very demotive to learn programming.

Ok if "experts" dont want to read all newbie questions, but there should be a tag or something you could click so peolple now this and dont just downvote and close so easy and so people that dont want to read those question can skip them and people that want to be more helpful and understand its a newbie question still can help before everything gets closed or whatever.
How long does it take to load and fully render HTML Gmail on your device? For me, it’s 1.15 seconds, and that’s from the moment I click the above link to the moment rendering is complete.
Truly an unnecessary dig at oncologists. If that happens it is not frequent. The more relevant association for clinical oncologists would be ASCO, which has its annual conference in Chicago this year.
Yeah it can work sometimes, especially if you get into the “marketing” budget of someone big - they often have some leeway.
I know the feeling. At my work, the leader has started calling us a family, and that we should be a family and treat each other like family and bring our authentic selves to work. I'm not a leader, I'm a mother to 2 children, a daughter to an immigrant blah blah blah.

Fuck off with that bullshit.

Doesn't anyone know what it means to be a professional any more? I don't care about your beliefs, as long as you come to work and do your fucking job, and be respectful to those around you. How fucking hard is that?

Apparently too hard in the 21st century for so many.
It would be an interesting test to make the green bubble dark and the blue bubble light.
That makes a lot of sense. I don't like to characterise 'left' and 'right' as being more or less factual, but we've experience a distorted massaging of facts in my country from papers like the Daily Telegraph. There are a bunch of people who like to say things to persuade people of their point of view, and are upset when the evidence doesn't agree with them. I can see something like wikipedia making these people upset.
*voluntarily from the public
Yes I hate Meta but that’s not the reason for my opposition towards this. Even Microsoft announced an integration and I don’t hate that company.

In aggregate, company's are pouring billions of dollars and who know how many person hours into VR meetings. Engineers are a limited resource. Investment is a limited resource. This could be going towards trying to solve many more useful problems.

I see people talking about the immersiveness being the biggest selling point. That's so true for video games but do people really think immersion is what's missing with remote work? I've been a fully remote employee for many years. It's the real time chat, drastically improved document collaboration, and video conferencing that has made the biggest impact. I've never yearned to be taken out of the coffee shop I'm working in or my home office and transported to a virtual conference room where I have to physically move my arms and head just like the real world.

Just because some tech works for one use case doesn't mean it does for another. Our touch screens are great on a phone. Terrible in a car where you need to be able to control things without focusing your eyes on it.

People look at this new tech and are flying to it because it's the new shiny thing. If you're in this group, think about what a marvel a screen, keyboard, and mouse are. You only twitch your eyes and barely move your hands and fingers at all. Yet, you can rapidly type, switch between totally different applications, scroll huge canvases of interfaces, etc all while barely expending any energy at all. That's that I call efficiency.
yeah, but if you leave your avatar, it just goes limp and is obvious you're not there. or, it just stands there doing that NPC awkward flailing of the arms/sighing/whatever when not doing something specific which is just as obvious.

it would be my preference where you could just make it super obvious the meeting is boring AF and do a magician smoke burst when you exit the meeting. make your avatar hold up a sign that says "Why Am I Here?". maybe have your avatar start throwing money at the presenter so they can buy a clue? like, if we're going to use VR and live in the metaverse, let's do things there that we can't do IRL.
Not really in the case of Jetbrains vs VScode, because if the fateful day came, it would simply be an inconvenience to have to set up the alternative, not the end of the world.

Not necessarily. Please see my other top-level comment in this thread.

Anarchy has a lot of definitions and sub types. Anarchy as complete lack of structure is always used to attack and denigrate it by its opponents, but it's not an inherent characteristic of anarchism itself. Anarchy does not have to mean everybody decides and we put everything to a vote.

Anarchy means you can leave whenever you want. Nobody forces you. No one has the monopoly on violence.

Free software is anarchic. It might have strict rules, and a tyrannical maintainer than only merges what he wants, but it's still anarchic because you can fork it.

Most people tend to be in anarchic relationship with each other, because no one can force something upon the other. That's something only the government does.

In fact, making money and profit does not have to be anti-anarchic. It's certainly against anarcho-communism, but that's just a subbranch of a wider social theory.
A lot of really smart and talented developers participate in mailing lists as well.

As someone who used to frequently help out online in the past, the problem is that the questions never stop coming and most are usually from people who refuse to do the bare minimum amount of research or reading. This would be fine were it not typically bundled with a lack of respect for your time and a strong sense of entitlement.

It's a good question! For years I've been hoping for the legendary Lithium-ion Crossover Event after which lead-acid batteries become obsolete for all purposes, but the auto parts stores in my neighborhood are still stubbornly stocking lead-acid starter batteries for some reason; so, too, the burglar alarm folks. Maybe the Crossover has already happened in the developed world, by which I mean China, but the news hasn't yet reached Argentina?
Jetbrains seems so confident about future being full of collaboration.

For me it would be very hard to work if someone else is also updating the codebase at the same time.

Anyone working like can you share your experience
Totally agreed that the cost isn't really storage, but I wanted to point out that you're underestimating a fair bit on the size. Conveniently, there's a wikipedia article about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia

"As of 21 September 2022, the size of the current version of all articles compressed is about 21.23 GB without media."

(Note that's gzipped, so the actual size is much higher in-use.)

Media is, of course, vastly larger. Sadly, the last number given was from 2014, so I'd expect it to have increased massively since then:

"The size of the media files in Wikimedia Commons, which includes the images, videos and other media used across all the language-specific Wikipedias was described as well over 23 TB near the end of 2014"

I don't think that's true in every case. When I first started playing VR I would sometimes get a little motion sick. I kept playing and only took breaks when it got bad. Now almost nothing makes me motion sick except when my headset massively bugs out and the world freezes and even then I don't get that sick just a bit uncomfortable.

I've heard of other people purposely training themselves to not be motion sick by playing fairly extreme games or in one case a developer who built a world that would repeatedly drop him from a height.

I don't doubt that it's possible to have the opposite outcome, it probably depends on the person and the process they're going through. I just don't think it's a general rule.
Also figuring 10g of mass, an online calculator suggests it would have about 4 megatons of tnt worth of kinetic energy, or 8% of the Tsar Bomba. Not negligible but not planet destroying either.
Nice one Jetbrains!!!

Let's see if this competition eventually leads to one of them launching something as snappy as vim but with IDE functionalities.
VS Code is close but noticeably slows down as soon as you install many plugins.

With Fleet, newbies now have an alternative editor cum IDE.

Many people that were into programming in my University couldn't afford the kind of machine that would load IntelliJ or Jetbrains IDEs in short time.
Rooting for Jetbrains to put up a good fight and recover some market share :)
Had a few times in the last 10 years. Where I was pushed very hard to hire someone either completely unqualified, or in we we simply didn’t need.

Like being told to hire a bash programmer for a database admin position. Because person was trans.

Thinking back on if. I’ve never had a regular white woman pushed on me.

I’ve hired woman before. But that was because they were qualified.

Now I’m considered evil for looking at merit.
Also I saw a good joke once about if you want a programming issue solved, don’t just post it to reddit; make another account in which you respond to your own question with some useless advice. Redditors will not idly stand by and leave someone else uncorrected.

If you don't want those (SO) answers, you can always go looking at w3schools (or other pseudo tech sites) or indian/pakistani facebook groups. Good luck there.
SO is, an always been the go to for devs that want answers to specific issue.
Maybe you should ask better questions to get better answers.

But to answer your question.
- if there are better forums or sources to get answers, than SO, we would know by now

And a followup for others. Have you as well seen a decline in the "questions" quality, rather than the answers? I'm worried, our industry is being polluted.
Put it on a lazy large dog or cow, if available, as they don’t have issues with VR apparently.
So what? Sounds like a good deal with me. Don't like it, just download debian or arch. I've been using LTS pop_os and ubuntu for years and have been relatively happy with them. I don't really like snap, so I don't complain, and I download flatpak or ppa's that are useful to me. When I start paying for it, I'll start bitching about it and sending nastygrams.
IIRC Coffee Meets Bagel piggybacks on your Facebook connections network. Or did, I don't know if they still do.
"Instead of trying to innovate, why don't they just give out their existing products for free to customers that aren't willing to pay?"

Jetbrains make good products. And it's great that they're trying to explore the potential for a more lightweight editor based on their technology.
> Peer-reviewers also don't follow particular names around; they see the name above the submission and it influences them, as on H.N. no doubt.

Agreed. I was referring to Quora.
Almost all of the jetbrain products are just intellij with a different set of plugins preinstalled (with perhaps the exception of clion which has a bit more native integration with debuggers), so you can quite likely just use intellij with a few plugins you want for everything.
Okay, let me see of I got this right.

User acquires an/a set of in perpetuity futures contracts. (A future without an expiry date, effectively, what? A pin I guess?) Idea being, this order indicates intent to swap at volume $MNGO to $USDC at $RATE.

Centralized exchanges sees the futures order, and starts cranking up the price of $MNGO due to the increased interest in swapping based on the presence of the Futures.

The Futures contracts are leveraged, but require no collateral, because there is no expiry date on the Future (no intended date of delivery).

So the order volume (spot token purchases) induced upward price movement and... What? Caused other uninvolved investors to buy his acquired tokens at a peak, and he just takes the money and cashes out never intending to actually honor or settle up the perps, which won't margin call, because they're still "good" but will never mature? I'm failing to see an exfil path for ill-gotten gains/financial chicanery beyond the seemingly obvious wash trading.

If anyone can help detangle this, I'd be much obliged. This kind of market weirdness is interesting, but inscrutable at times, when there's usually like 6 pieces of networked jargon needed to render something that doesn't tend to line up to anything tangible in the conventional sense.
All this outrage on this thread is like teenager thinking.

Wherein a lack of nuance allows a person to be obsessed with “phoniness”—any perceived moral breakdown in an idealized person or organization—

To want a neutral historical is one incredible demand. And then to really suggest that Wikipedia has strayed 5xfar from that!

> authors are not the only beneficiaries of a scientific publication. The interests of the reader matter too -- the journal or conference has some duty to serve them.

> I don't think we should act like scientific publication is only to give authors a line on their CV and the readers' preference is 100% irrelevant

In many fields, the reader can go and read what they want in arXiv or a similar repository. And in the fields where this is not the case, it should be. The elite authors that you mention, in particular, shouldn't have any problem to get their papers read by linking them in social networks, starting a blog, etc.

While this wasn't the case 50 years ago, right now almost no one reads journals from front to back, people just search for individual papers, and the main purpose of the peer-review process of conferences and journals is basically gatekeeping and providing some signal for career evaluation, i.e., to "give authors a line on their CV". Thus, I don't think there is any reason to judge anything but the paper contents.
It is illegal in many countries. Lèse-majesté is a real thing.

This type of behavior is everywhere right now. A lot of people are struggling emotionally due to the aftermath of the pandemic and other contemporary issues and the way they attempt to vent online is with this type of behavior.

I've been using StackOverflow for around 10 years and it hasn't always been as bad as it is now but there certainly have always been some ornery folks answering.

You could try to preface your question with something like "I'm not sure I'm asking correctly" or something like that and then if they persist ask them respectfully to not be pedantic as you just want a solution.
The question is "what does liked more than average mean?"

I think it's more naturally interpreted as a frequency question ('given a random A, how likely is it that I would say "I like this person"?') rather than an average/sum question ('what is the total likability of all members of A minus the total dislikability of all members of A?')

False. What I had in mind and what I implied is the mind-reading fallacy.
Impossible and naive is fighting racism with racism. Making everything equal is a perfectly paved route to totalitarianism by now. Did you read at least one book in your life? Sorry for the accusation here, but if you think of yourself to be able to determine what is just or unjust for others, you need to put some more cards on the table. And it certainly isn't simple.
Yep. And calling it "benevolent sexism" is absurd. By that same logic the bias that "men are smarter than women" is benevolent sexism.
I would be really surprised if they were "inventing" high-dpi displays or new lenses. The likely scenario to me seems that they would just buy what is already available or perhaps pay another shop to customize something for them, not invent a new technology.

What it really seems like they are doing is having a serious case of NIH syndrome and re-writing a bunch of stuff that already exists elsewhere.

People hate it because Facebook has not proven itself to be a good steward of technology, and I think people are more broadly questioning whether we should elevate these companies to stewards of our lives in the first place.
My unpopular opinion is that the popular “SO is full of pedants” claim isn’t even true.

A classic beginner mistake is to mistake legit a major misstatement as a trivial error. “Gosh, stop focusing on the minutiae and answer my question!”

“Gosh everyone is such a pedant that won’t just answer my well-thought-out questions” is a red flag. It’s like complaining that everyone around you is always an asshat.

I think this meme would be quickly dispelled if HNers were to start posting links to their own negative interactions on SO.
Not on average, but I believe men do have a flatter Gaussian curve. We have more mass murderers but also more notable leaders, scientists, etc.

At any rate, this is interesting in the large but useless at the individual level. We should not allow fuzzy impressions over the entire human race change our impressions of an individual person.

When the book "The Bell Curve" came out it caused an uproar for this reason. We cannot discriminate against anyone on the basis of their broad studies of race, as the authors themselves noted.
Most of intellij is open-source.
Perhaps the problem is with your questions?

I didn't realize this is a problem I had, until my kids started emulating it.

daughter: 'Dad what are we having for dinner?'
dad: 'um, not sure'
daughter: 'is it something baked?'
dad: 'uh maybe, don't know, why'
daughter: 'will you use the oven?'
dad: 'ok, whats this about?'
daughter: 'can I bake some cookies, and ask my friends to come for a baking sleepover?'
dad: ffs

So, if you want people to help, tell them what your problem is, and the context, not just ask for the specific things you think will solve your problem. Of course you can guide them to that by telling them what your idea of a solution is, and why.
Wikipedia and Wikimedia Foundation are not the same thing. The author’s sentiment is pretty common among the large number of volunteer editors who make the bulk of what makes Wikipedia valuable. You can find people of all sorts of political affiliations who edit Wikipedia and feel like the WMF fundraising schemes are insulting to their contributions to the project and put the whole project at risk. If Wikipedia were a business then fine, they could do as they like but it is also a community and the public facing behavior of
WMF has serious consequences to that community.
Discord (preferably the official Discord) is surprisingly very helpful and positive for me.
"If materials are good at grabbing carbon dioxide, they're usually good at grabbing multiple gasses," explained Katherine Hornbostel, assistant professor of mechanical engineering and materials science at the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering. "It's really hard to tune these materials to grab carbon dioxide but nothing else, and that's what this research is focused on."
The problem, as always, isn't size but density. Outside the east coast there is very little density. It's almost unfathomable having grown up in Europe how big and empty even large areas at the west coast are. This gets especially obvious when you get away from the central freeway that goes up the coast. Where I've visited our lived in Europe or Asia these areas would still be largely inhabited and have smaller towns sprinkled all over with small, frequently even walkable or bookkeeper distances between them. At the west coast, away from the freeway there is often nothing for miles and miles and then when you hit a small town is often partially abandoned. In other parts of the world these surrounding areas would provide passengers to the central transportation arteries via slow train and you'd have viable, slow trains transporting passengers to the major stops along the high speed track. None of that would be viable here. When the LA-SF highspeed train was planned they added stops in podunk towns to make it viable, IMO they were also removing any speed that would be comparable to airplane for any interesting connection.

And that's the west coast, once you go inland you'd maybe have one viable stop in most states of you want to keep it high-speed.
The tactic is more advantageous to authors, because they get more articles (which is used as a metric to evaluate scientific success) and I would argue it's less risky. Say you split up your results up into 3 papers, your chance of one paper being rejected might be higher, however your chance of all papers being rejected is lower.

In terms of more convenient for readers, you discount the mental load required in finding papers. That's in fact one of the biggest problems in many scientific fields at the moment. There are so many papers being published that it is very hard to keep up with the field. Reading the same amount of results also requires a much higher load, because if authors split up the results into 3 papers, the individual papers are not suddenly shorter, but in fact the overall page count is typically almost 3 times of a paper that would have put everything into a single paper.
I wish they'd provide more support for C++; CLion is incredibly slow on older Macbooks.
Probably same than previous pricing model - you need license for commercial use.
