The reason people on here tend to dislike those types of tools is because they've probably been the ones who had to fix the tangles people get themselves into by using those tools. Tools that obscure details in favor of simplicity are fine in some cases, but version control is an inherently complex problem domain where having those details is important.

In my experience mentoring juniors new to git, those who are just given a few basic commands don't create as much of a mess because they don't have the commands required to make a big mess. When they do make a mess, it's usually because they've copy-pasted something from the internet, and most will acknowledge that blind copy-pasting _feels_ wrong. Give them a GUI, and suddenly there are buttons to create all sorts of unholy mangles right at their fingertips.

As a really simple example, one of the most frequent things I see from juniors using git GUIs is adding files to a commit that they didn't intend to (say stuff that's not in the .gitignore, but doesn't belong in the commit). In the CLI, they probably don't know about -a, so they would be forced to add files/directories individually and think about what to include. Most GUIs I've seen include a "Stage All" button front-and-center, which is very tempting for a new user to click (or, worse, they make staging an opt-out thing). I do not know if this specific example is the case in GitHub Desktop, it's something that I see regularly.

I agree with your last point. I think git GUIs are best for users who already know what they're doing and find that a GUI speeds up their workflow.
From what I read, CZ liquidated his holdings of FTX's primary currency, which crashed its value. If that's the case, the "value" was due to scarcity. This "money" isn't gold-backed; it didn't "go" anywhere. It was a balloon. It deflated.
I think what you are describing is both a reasonable worry and also exactly the kind of ambiguity the company encourages. You have no leverage if you're unwilling to leave, and it's foolish to initiate a discussion like that from a position of dependency.

I'm not suggesting issuing ultimatums, of course, I'm just suggesting that you mentally prepare for needing to quit first, otherwise it takes a real pro to have that conversation. I know I'm not good enough to do it unless I talk about things like that with my manager regularly already.

I do wonder if these are questions you can ask confidentially in a different way. Like I dunno how big your place is but you might find this information easily in a meeting with HR, but HR is there to help the company (not you) so it depends on their priorities a lot. It's a very reasonable thing to wonder about when tens of thousands of people just got laid off from similar positions... I'd think a reasonable manager or HR person would understand that. But I certainly can't argue that managers and HR people are all reasonable!
Clarence Thomas has only ruled in an originalist manner on the constitutional cases he has heard.

Likewise, Alito and Gorsuch. The only deviation from this that I could locate was in Citizens United. Alito talked of "practical originalism" as opposed to textbook.

But if you can name cases where at least those three have significantly deviated from the Federalist Society, please do.
he definetly did, where do you think the insolvency comes from ?
Historically, there was little that could go wrong with a vehicle that wasn't in some way physical. A recall really meant recalling your product to the place of purchase for some sort of physical intervention.

Today, there is software that can and does go wrong... Maybe moreso than the physical... But the regulatory environment hasn't kept pace with the technology.

So software issues like this must still be called a recall and communicated as such. Unfortunately, the connotation of a severe issue requiring the physical product is also lagging in the culture, thus stories like the one posted about a software update delivered over the air

If you're in a corporate environment with control over the infrastructure, low DNS TTLs allow you to mostly guarantee a failover. There will always be clients that ignore TTLs, but most of them are fixed by IT rebooting the box.

As the poster says, when it comes to the public internet DNS TTLs are more like guidelines.

Luckily most client DNS caches are cleared on a reboot.

FYI, if I remember correctly Windows (and MacOS?) used to cache negative responses for "a while".

But it hasn't been the car companies getting ahead of the problem. It has become the last thing they want to do. I recall Ford rather paying victims of roll overs than admit to recalling. The negative press is warranted especially if the recall was forced by the government.
Ask HN: Charging for Twitter verification, was it a wise decision?
I am sure there are so many other opportunities to monetize Twitter. Paying for a badge instead of earning it beats the idea of social trust. If Elon Mask is out of ideas, I suggest looking at Telegram, they started selling account handles, IMO this could bring more money.
How much is Twitter going to make out of blue badges? Any ideas?
I find Lambda calculus and term rewriting much more elegant and easy to understand. I don't think there is a simpler Turing-complete language (maybe Game of Life?).

To-do lists work a bit differently; they're just Markdown tasks:

- [ ] do something
- [x] did something

However, there are a number of neat plugins which can integrate those into anything from simple views of all open to-do items to full-up Kanban boards. Additionally, the Minimal theme lets you do Bullet Journal-style variations on that:

- [/] partially did something
- [<] scheduled something
- [>] punted something to the next day/etc.
Quite possibly, but that's a lot of money to put up against a company (zenimax) known for their legal team. It would also mean never working with id/zenimax/bethesda/possibly even Microsoft game studios in general again.

The main arguments for Excel, that I suspect, would be better collaboration features (like comments and sharing and such), and better integration with other MS tools (Outlook etc.).

No, the main argument why Excel is used in the finance and insurance industries is that many users know Excel really well.
When you take into consideration taxes and social security; you will be taxed at an effective taxrate of around 40% for a salary of 40k euro. To get around taxes, you need to work as a contractor, and use some copyright law on the time you spend coding (you create something) which cuts the taxrate for that time in half.

Low Cost of living is true if you find a cheap enough place to live, but due to Russia's invasion, housing just isn't that cheap unless you know where to look for and are from Poland. I called 20 people just to be able to check a single apartment out.

50k isn't good for a senior role either; new grad salary in Germany in 2020 was around 60k gross.
> If I see an error in the middle of a bunch of commits that look like "trying x with y." Then I know that this is a tricky problem, and the developer was lucky to get it to work at all.

Just an aside, but if there problem being solved is harder than it looks then this deserves a comment explaining why in either the commit message or in the code itself.
Well, not all people are as rational as you.

> Previous estimates said that the annual shipment for this device would reach 2.5 million units. However, right now, rough estimates placed the annual shipment at around 0.7 to 0.8 million units. For supply chain manufacturers that benefit from quantity, this is not a particularly profitable order.

Wow, this is really interesting to me. The Oculus Quest 2's first year on the market moved almost 10 million units, which isn't earth-shattering but still makes Apple's sales predictions look fairly pessimistic by comparison.

It's too early to call, but if Meta can string themselves along financially for long enough to release an Oculus Quest 3, they might send Apple's XR dreams to an early grave.

They don’t have enough and the compensation isn’t low enough to bring down the average anywhere near this. Within the US, only base salary is adjusted up to 10-15% which is less than 10% of total comp. Internationally they pay significantly higher than local labor market, in all looking similar to US numbers.
This is quite a flawed and obviously biased analysis.

To use just one example. If the UK hadn't had locked down when it did, it's likely the entire health service would have collapsed, leading to more excess AND Covid deaths.

Unlike the author, I don't pretend to have the answer, but anyone with a functioning brain can see this "analysis" is without merit.
I found synergies in many cases. As D13Fd said, legislation is very similar to code, with many intertwined sections, references and conditions. You'll need a sense for detail if you want to find ways to push the right of your client through court.

Similar to the backend/frontend specialization in coding, a lawyer may specialize in a certain sector. Reading through the legislation is quite similar to reading through a legacy codebase, and writing notices is somewhat similar to structuring and crafting new code, which will always be based on the same 'framework' (if you work in a single country).

Especially in cases regarding data protection, as a SSE you'll always have a good advantage over many of your peers, as you'll easily identify nonsense and can often provide in-depth investigations.
"State terrorism refers to acts of terrorism which a state conducts against another state or against its own citizens."[0]

Seems to fit the definition just fine. I'm not claiming "Israel is pure evil" or anything like that, it's surely a nuanced situation. However, they do commit acts of terrorism against Palestinians...which are either another state or their own citizens, depending on the prevailing views. Maybe these are justified or necessary for the survival of the Israeli state.

It's just hard to deny that it happens.

I'm sure there are lots of competent people putting a lot of effort in "Metaverse", but to me it looks really just yet another VR world. Does anyone know what is the concrete new thing it would make successful?
People act like there were no layoffs between 2010 and 2000 but there were plenty, if you were in the wrong company and/or the wrong sector. IBM comes to mind. There were still CEOs out there trimming the fat while everyone else was getting high on the hype. If you had exposure to this, you're ready, at least emotionally, for what's going on now. If you didn't, you're probably shellshocked right now. Don't worry, you'll get used to it.
I explicitly asked them to put me on a blacklist because there's no way in hell I'm working for Facebook. They may not be directly culpable, but they allowed their platform to be used in ways to subvert democratic norms and institutions (West), promote and coordinate Genocide (Muslims in India and Myanmar) etc.

I honestly consider it better to work for Raytheon; at least the weapons they make are regulated and subject to stronger scrutiny.

Even from that point of view this isn't as simple an equation as you might think, old people dying is probably a positive for the economy (not an economist, don't quote me on that), and less people being born may be a net positive for the economy in the short term too.

Regardless, China has a healthy amount of people turning eighteen every year at least until 2037, the demographic dip/collapse has only really been a thing for the last couple of years and may pass in time.
What makes you believe peace would be the only natural outcome? Putin turned out to be an authoritarian dictator with imperialistic beliefs, peace is rarely an option with those guys.

Russia being a part of NATO could allow them to invade not just Ukraine, but also Poland and Baltic States.

Do you believe Putin would not become a dictator if Russia joined NATO? It is entirely possible, but far from guaranteed.
Head-down cranking out the code till all hours, day after day, may be a young person's game. Older people learn to operate differently - to think more, and to code more efficiently rather than more energetically. They can be at least as productive as the young, but they do it differently.

Sad saga ==> High-end CPU delayed six months. :-/
If you keep merge commits you can get the full diff at once and see all the context you need, if you don't you can still write meaningful commit messages that identify the feature you're working on so that in the future you can still do a diff between the first and the last commit and see it all at once.
Agreed. The first and last place I look at when doing a git blame is the PR that the commit was in. That contains all the useful information for me, as well as much-needed context around review comments, discussion, etc that is not able to find in native git.
After reading this post, I have another tip - instead of adding `alias.pr` to your gitconfig, you can create a shell script called `git-pr`. Then you can write readable code instead of having to sprinkle extra quotes and backslashes everywhere.

Peloton co-founder John Foley launches business selling custom rugs DTC
It happens to be the case that I do (I am at LinkedIn) but I actually started this years ago when I was working as an independent contractor/consultant. It was the only way I could keep track of having many, many different things in flight: I was working on a masters' degree, working ~full time, had two little kids, and also had several side projects going. It actually started out as just a way to help build the necessary personal disciplines to get things done, and the logging grew out of it when I realized it was really helpful for two things: my own understanding of what I had done over a given period of time, and then eventually for using at the startup I joined in 2016, and now at BigTech.
Should’ve just increased the blocksize, instead of implementing some crap L2 solution.
I understand your concerns and certainly don't mean to minimise them, this is just my personal experience and opinion after all :)

Do what you feel comfortable with at the end of the day. My original reply was meant as one possible answer that I have seen first hand to work well for both parties.

I will add as another personal opinion though that I very rarely see people that choose to stay at a company going though layoffs hanging around very long.

More often than not those people experience a 'depression' (for want of a better word that escapes me as I write this) seeing their friends leave, not having the freedom the had back in the "good old days", little if any progression, the constant "sorry not this quarter, we're still recovering from the layoffs", living in constant anxiety that they will be in the next round of layoffs, etc. So they often leave within a year or two anyway.

Over the years I have played this game and now I am a bit more proactive about exiting before that 'depression' hits me. Of course what is right for me is not right for all, only you can truly decide what you feel is best given your situation.
Because they do a terrible job at it. I looked at a flipped house once, and they built a laundry room - with no place for a dryer vent! (I guess they hoped no one would notice.)

They had gas service in the home, but instead of running that to the dryer or range, they ran electric because it was cheaper to run a wire.

Every single thing they did they picked the cheapest, worst, option. Anyone buying that home is in for an expensive annoying time as they have to re-fix tons of things they did.

They had to change the plumbing in some areas, and instead of a 3/4 pipe, they ran 1/2 inch to far too many fixtures - you'll never notice, until you try to shower and run the dishwasher at the same time.

It was just non-stop shortcuts.

I made a policy of not even going to look at a home that was fixed without the owner actually living in it afterward.
In 2001 I was using a G4 with Mac OS 9.2 for Photoshop while working at a studio; that was Photoshop version 7, which is pre-CS (which started with 8.0). My memory of the workflow at that time was that most system operations were snappy as hell. Sure, there was a bit of load time for very large files and some of the operations had a bit of lag but there really became a point around that time that the speed of work that you could do for most operations essentially matched the speed of the machine. Before that era, I remember going to use the cloning tool on a large, high-DPI image and getting a lag as you dragged the brush over a spot... waiting for it to catch up. The G4, especially when we upgraded one with more ram and OSX (which also was a huge change that happened to coincide with the G4) is when I remember machines getting to the point where I wasn't waiting on lag all the time when working.
