Interesting to get data on this. People that use Twitter frequently take breaks, come back, and only tweet about how great life was without Twitter. I also think some function of this is in follower count. It's fun to have ~500 followers, somewhere around 5,000 is when your tweets start circulating to people outside your normal sphere of influence and the replies get annoying.

Restricting replies to mentioned users doesn't stop quote tweets, which doesn't stop your tweet from reaching even more annoying, more unrelated communities.
>Reject Capitalism? Starve to death on the streets.

What's "rejecting capitalism?" You can't blow up the NYSE, but most everything else is fair game. Your employer isn't going to care if you reject capitalism so long as you get your work done. If you don't want to work under a capitalist, you can join join or start your own cooperative. If you can't do that, you can be an independent contractor. If you don't have the motivation to do that, you can fall back on the charity of others.

Neither of the two methods I described require looking at the phone during the movie.

1. If you’re going to use the cues, you look at them before the movie starts.

2. If you’re going to use the timer, the phone will vibrate in your pocket. Granted, if you have a loud-vibrating phone, that could be disruptive (although not as bad as the screen being on or ringing, and not worse than a person getting up to go to the bathroom).

When the cue/timer happens, you leave the theater. While you’re peeing you can look at the app to find out what’s happening in the movie.

I'm very curious what your experiences are that lead you to this conclusion. It just seems wrong to me. If someone is spending too much time coordinating and not enough time coding or vice versa, you should tell them that explicitly so that they can switch their priorities. If someone is spending too much time writing well factored code and not enough time shipping or vice versa, you should tell them that so that they can change their approach. If someone needs to up their level expertise on your toolset in order to be productive, you should tell them that and point them to the right literature so that they can learn.

In none of these situations is it better to ... what are you even suggesting doing? like winking at them or something? awkward shifting in your seat? the silent treatment? using obtuse jargon?

Just tell people how you think they're doing and how you think they could improve! It may be awkward but you'll get over it...
wait, what? Are you sure that's true?

There was also bad programmer job market crash in the 80s that changed the market up a lot by the 90s. In fact, this was about when the gender ratio became very skewed (men and women dropped out of programming at equal rates, but the recovery was lopsided).

A straightforward rule for startups is to hire for the green flags rather than against the red flags.

You have a job that needs to be done. You can't pay FAANG wages. If you find a candidate capable of doing the job ask yourself how much those red flags really matter.

And just to be clear I'm not talking about 'horrible person' red flags but rather the 'other employers skip this person' red flags.

You're a startup. You can accommodate the burnout eng who wants to work 2 days a week for 2/5ths the pay. The only thing you need to worry about are the green flags. Are they capable of doing the job?

My take on this is a little different than the comments previous. I tend to side with your position over the default position the GC is workable as a languages base assumption. I think the problem really is an expressiveness issue. In a language conceptualized to have memory managed either manually or GC’d and that said choice should be easily made (i.e. it should not take much work to designate some code path as utilizing a GC’d strategy), but I would say for implementation and performance you would give up being able to easily abstract over the memory strategy.

tr;dl — I’d really prefer the option to determine when I’d like GC, as opposed to dodging the collector to avoid performance hits, hot code can default to manual. Probably not a realistic ask, but it could work.

In VSCode what's in the refactoring menu depends a lot on what you have selected or under the cursor.

> Once you have 100% branch/statement coverage in your tests, all bugs that are left are those that arise from the interaction of two or more statements, in a way that wasn't covered in the tests.

A bit tangential, but this statement is not accurate. You can have complete branch/statement coverage and still have single-line bugs due to not fully testing the domain/range of all relevant variables; the simplest example is the potential for divide-by-zero bugs in otherwise fully tested code paths.

100% branch/statement coverage is necessary for real confidence, but it is sufficient for very little.

Apparently Maryland also names it's courts confusingly, which I only know because on the ballot in a couple weeks is a constitutional amendment to change it to be what you expect.

(and googling it just now to give you details, I arrived at Ballotpedia which said Maryland and New York are the only two states that don't call their top court "supreme". Maryland for not much longer probably, as ammendments on the ballot always seem to pass here. But even Maryland doesn't call a different court supreme!).

> Question 1 would rename the Maryland Court of Appeals to the Supreme Court of Maryland and the Maryland Court of Special Appeals to the Appellate Court of Maryland. It would change the name of a Judge of the Court of Appeals to be a Justice of the Supreme Court of Maryland and the name of the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals to be the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Maryland. It would also change the gendered language to gender-neutral in the articles of the Maryland Constitution that would be amended.[2]

> Maryland and New York are the only states that do not refer to their state's top court as the supreme court

—https://ballotpedia.org/Maryland_Question_1,_Renaming_of_the...

(OK, so currently in Maryland you start your appeal at the "court of special appeals", and if you don't like the finding you can appeal further to the "court of appeals"? The Court of Appeals is a higher court than the Court of Special Appeals? I'd say that's almost as confusing as New York, although maybe not quite).

Contractors get raises all the time, what kind of BS is that? Contracting rates change, prices change. The guy is just being an asshole.

Don't bother with lawyers and suing, you'll never get anything out of it. Just use your current experience to look for a better job ASAP. Once you have an offer lined up, quit. Until then, don't stress about any complaints they lay on you - if they were unhappy, they'd fire you. Instead they promoted you to have more responsibilities. That means they are happy with your work - but won't tell you that because then you'd ask for more money. So, look for better place to work.
I don't buy these rationalizations at all. As was previously said, HLSe has been using fragment level encryption for many years, with AVC and MP4, so we know its possible. This is not theoretical. https://paramountplus.com and https://cbc.ca

Yeah, same. Wouldn't mind a silent alert, but the blaring alarm meant it got disabled.
Yea, that sounds somewhat normal. I see builds getting bigger when you add in a bunch of yarn packages, building assets and webpacker etc. As projects get larger these tend to bloat up.

You might be interested in looking at this demo of a Rails Rspec/Capybara test suite (https://brisktest.com/demos#rails) it's over 60 minutes locally on my macbook, we get it down to 90 seconds on brisk. It's got a lot of Selenium Chrome tests which is why it's so long (90 seconds is long for us), and I think fixing their flakiness would shave a lot off those seconds (lots of rspec retry going on) but it's a good example of a real-world test suite. Often fixing flaky tests is not the priority and getting your tests run in 90 seconds is huge.

I lost points on the SAT for mixing up 2 pi r and pi r^2 - left out the 2 for the former. (That's the one that stands out as a duh, I knew better, one - I forget what else I missed.) There were also a LOT of analogies. I've read that those have been removed, I dunno how the math section is, but both of those were much more "knowing things" than innate intelligence. Grades tend to require both "knowing things" and longer-term discipline; I could see where that would be advantageous.

Grades have a disadvantage of A's being way too common, though - no resolution at the top of the scale.

Thank you for the polite response - I realise I was a bit harsh.

I don’t see an issue with chemical fertilisers, personally - I don’t think non commercial users of them are significant enough to be worth any consideration compared ro conventional agriculture.

I can’t say how consequential microplastics are - however banning them for use as packaging etc can have huge negative consequences because they are a very cheap (both in price and energy) packaging compared to most alternatives. I think that if microplastics are a concern, car tires and clothing are much more significant than “single use” instances as good packaging (which I would guess is actually usually disposed of properly most of the time).

I brought up paper because it’s a common substitute packaging (eg cardboard and the like), but is significantly pricier than plastics and more energy intensive to produce.

It’s not an easy Robles to solve, the more so because we use these things because they work so well. I just took exception to singling these things out because they are either critical to modern civilisation (fertiliser) or extremely useful (plastic packaging)

A year in the title generally indicates that what is being linked to is as it was in the year specified. Usually, a blog post is static and easy to apply a year to but front pages of ongoing projects may have new information or changes that make it harder to label with a year. If a particular project is finished then applying a year to the title could make sense but most people don't bother to look into what year that should be, and in some cases may be subjective.

These bundlers do not do the same work as webpack. Turbopack is using swc for typescript which means it will not do typechecking during compilation which effectively makes it fairly useless as a compiler. Now, if you only want bundling and minification then sure but why would anyone want only bundling? Good luck having a sensible workflow when your type checking has to run separately and perfectly match whatever typescript version is hidden inside your bundler, good luck dealing with constant mismatches when there are errors on either side.

EDIT: The responses pointed out that the author is the maintainer of webpack, I removed that part of the comment calling it deceptive. Maybe the entire intent is to deprecate webpack. I still think that it should be renamed to "Turbopack: our webpack successor" because calling it 'the' successor is a bit presumptuous and the article doesn't even directly say that.
