>The Tories won the 2019 General elections and a huge majority. A big part of that success has been "getting Brexit done".

That's kind of surface level. A large contingent of people were told that Brexit would be amazing and were told that Britain needed a good, strong, competent leader like Boris who would "get it done".

The reality is that the media barons (Rothermere, Murdoch, etc.) that wanted more than anything for the socialist NOT to win, made sure Boris was painted as the strong and competent leader who could deliver a brighter future even though privately they knew he was an idiot.

The UK public bought it.

The media only started saying what they really thought about Boris after the socialist wing of the opposition was throughly routed. The sheep have now "woken up" to Boris being a dangerous idiot even though it is as obvious now if you paid attention as it was when he demonstrated his leadership credentials by hiding from journalists in a fridge.

The media barons now desperately want a Labour government, of course, now that an unthreatening corporate stooge has consolidated power over the party. Starmer will be painted as the strong, sensible leader this country needs to avoid chaos.
But this is after you have already grasped the basic concepts of variables, assignments, conditionals, loops, functions, etc?

Your suggested path is great to learn a lot of stuff about web development. It's actually very very good, the more I think about it the more I see you basically covered most of the things one actually does in the job. Especially the googling part right at level 0 ;)

But I'm afraid I wouldn't recommend this path to someone that knows absolutely nothing about programming, isn't it better to start with little puzzles like fizzbuzz and the like to get to know the syntax of the language first?

Nuclear and biological weapons are also part of the "natural progression of technology" but it's widely agreed that they shouldn't be released to anybody and everybody, and the people distributing those technologies have a moral responsibility.

If you think your software would be of more use to "evil" than not, then don't release it widely.
Yep. For the last month, I have been exclusively giving out GMail as "my personal email" instead of <personal domain>.ru, but it was more of an emotional thing. Thinking of it, I genuinely don't know which of these is less reliable in the long run for a Russian citizen: GMail, Russian registrar or a foreign registrar for <personal domain>.<some other TLD>.

"Mitsubishi [the car maker], holds a tight grasp of a 40% share in the world market for Bluefin tuna"

"Is importing thousands and thousands of pounds of Bluefin tuna from the Mediterranean to Tokyo fish markets. They also have a massive freezer, where they have acquired a stock reserve of Bluefin tuna. As the number of fish reaches a record low, the price of tuna meat will continue to rise. Mitsubishi will be able to greatly profit off of the extinction of Bluefin tuna because of their reserve stock".

> Nginx may be a bit more performant but Caddy’s ease of configuration lured me in.

I'd say there is some nuance here. I have a really hard time finding out how to do stuff using the Caddy's new json based configuration style. Even keeping the configuration after server restart is not something trivial. I do realize a Caddyfile style configuration can be used but last time I've checked their whole documentation and examples are using JSON.

JSON might be nifty to communicate things between systems but its not user friendly. Reminds me the XML config file fad from the late 2000s.

Same experience here, with a 2G Nano sitting in my drawer because developing on it is like pulling teeth compared to a Pi 4, despite all the extra horsepower. Nothing is standard on that thing. They couldn't even keep the GPIO header as-is, they had to reshuffle the pin locations while keeping it misleadingly in the same form factor.

What's scary that if this is true, if the electorate is too silly to vote the right people in, it's only going to get worse.

Populist leaders are unlikely to fund schools properly, because it's not in their interest to do so, it's not in their interest to have an educated voting base, and on it will go.

I guess eventually, a champion will come from someewhere and help rectify the situation, but who knows how long this will take.

Nothings perfect. I think if you use a reputable register with support and a paid email host with support you have less risk than a gmail where they can lock you out and you cant do password recovery because some filter triggered.

I would add two other things.
- Prepay the domain for a large number of years (10y) to avoid billing issues.
- Keep a local copy of your email on atleast one machine (either just in a desktop client, or do regular exports).

Ask HN: [Over 30s] What makes you more effective than your early 20s self?
I make about 3x my post-graduate salary, and I sometimes ponder how I can be _that_ much more valuable. Current ideas:

- I now take more global responsibility for contributing to a business outcome, instead of “My part works”

- I obviously know more technical things, but crucially I rarely get stuck for hours on something “small” (like SSH keys) which was never taught at school.

- I know more about myself and arrange my day accordingly. Before I optimized for how I felt I “should” like to work.

- because I have proven myself, I get put on projects which are worth a lot more. even flawless execution of my first few work projects probably would not be worth my current salary.

What are yours? Why couldn’t any of the thousands of new grads each year do your current job?

That is how it works at most places for anyone starting out.

All the formal education is great for seniors and the 3% who do more than push boxes all day. For anything else, it ranges from useful to an active detriment. Given most devs will not be expected to be productive regardless of education and sit 5 years doing mostly the same work, that's a lot of time to train someone into the ideal cargoculter, which will keep them hireable in most of the market.

Vice versa, someone who sees inefficiencies, knows things can be better, etc.? Yeah, you get a few "look I did these amazing things and now my company loves me" stories, but the vast majority will struggle balancing their own desires and thoughts with company processes and political walls.

Well you are still at the mercy of whoever's maintaining the network, aka some random-ass people all over the world. Aside from the few main ones, crypto networks are infamously ever changing and you're more likely to register a domain on something that won't even exist in 2 years because it collapsed completely. Maybe Eth is to big to fail now, but maybe it isn't.

Who is making “Discover Weekly” for podcast episodes?

I want personalized episode recommendations based on past listening behavior; I don't have time to dig through 30 podcast feeds to find an episode that interests me, which is why I usually only listen to specific episodes that friends recommend.

I bet recommendations across all podcasts (not just ones I know of) that match my interests to others with the same listening behavior would massively increase the amount of time I spend listening to podcasts.
No, I don't think that Rust would buy us anything in this regard.

"Async" in languages like Rust are meant for an entire different problem domain (mostly networking).

In my post above I'm talking about dispatching commands from the audio thread to a helper thread (pool) - and back. This has to be done in a realtime safe manner, so a general async framework won't be appropriate.

Due to being kind of on the poor side, using AWS, Azure or GCP for personal projects isn't entirely viable for me. I still do utilize some VPS vendors for when I need a decent uptime, but most of the time it's just a GNU/Linux box that I have SSH access to and I configure everything else myself.

Most other things, I run in my homelab, which is just a few old computers repurposed to act as servers for whatever I might need (especially for storing larger amounts of data, e.g. backups), including things like acting as CI/CD nodes, or test environments etc.

I still write "cloud native" software (for example, 12 Factor Apps) because those make the portability of everything pretty well, as well as use something like Docker and some lightweight orchestration on top of it (like Docker Swarm or Hashicorp Nomad) because it's like having the ability to make configuration for what you need (ports, storage, memory/CPU limits, scheduling, restart policies etc.) rather easily and also version it, more easily than Ansible lets me (which I still use for configuration of the server nodes themselves). Basically like multi-node systemd, once could say.

Every time I read about the benefits of Wayland, I read shopping list of stuff I don't care about and don't want. I don't give a stuff about techie nerdwank like refresh rates, tearing, video smoothness, triple buffering and other pointless implementation details that it is the entire job of a GUI to make go away.

What I care about is that I plug in a screen, I drag a window onto it, and it stays the same size. That my window can straddle two screens and still work. That I can resize it across as many screens as I want.

I want it to work and I want how that happens to be invisible.

Wayland, as far as I can tell, is about xNix graphics programmers complaining about how hard the job is, I'm afraid.
Kanye West Wants to Build His Own Mini-City Called the ‘Yecosystem’
Putting to one side Patrice Lumbumba University, it is my belief (on thin evidence on my part), ethnic Russians can be quite racist, especially to non white and Islamic cultures. It would be very hard to see Russia as a successful inbound immigration target for Iranians, Venezuelans, Cubans, Syrians in the wide. Intelligentsia maybe, but not labour in the wide. Unless as a servant class maybe, replacement of missing births from the cultures currently in their wider international circuit seems implausible. Indian and Chinese people have better choices.

That means it's Moldova and Belarus, or a retreat from the far east and north. I can't see where else Russia gets the bodies. Bulgaria? Serbia? Would they want to migrate? Russia can't hold Crimea and the new claims at Ukraine's east if they depopulate.

So to me, substantive population decline looks unavoidable in this period.

Would the outbound migration to London Malta and Cyprus reverse?
That matches my view pretty well. They support "everything", but most of that support is half-baked, just enough to satisfy a box-ticking exercise.

This is a popular notion, but I'm not sure how well founded it actually is, since we really only have one search engine that's really been struggling with SEO spam, and that is a search engine that is also in an uniquely tricky bind where they're primarily an advertisement broker, and thus extremely limited in what they can do about search engine spam without hurting their own bottom line.

As if I don't know what's going on around me? Weird take. There are still enough positions, especially in the IT sector in Germany, where we don't have enough applicants or employees for (sorry, don't know how to phrase it better). The IT sector is a major economic factor, overall and especially for a lot of companies. ESPECIALLY in economically hard times. Sure, hiring will slow, but just because in the US there are lots of big IT companies having big lay-offs, don't assume it's the same in other countries.

Have a look: https://sifted.eu/articles/startup-tech-company-layoffs/

Companies that are laying off are the ones that have been dysfunctional anyway or have only been able to operate because of peculiar circumstances (Gorillas, Getir) and don't have a viable business cases.

We both don't know how it will be, but I personally really need those people. We are pre-market, we have enough funding and runway. I know what I'm doing. Also, it really depends on the company and the sector. At any given time, I guess at least a few companies will do good and can hire people. We're one of those.

All the best with your company.
