Having no framework comes with having no documentation.

If you select a framework and work in the same scope as the framework intends to, then you can onboard new engineers much more easily by telling them: We are working as the framework defines, look into the documentation and you will understand the basic architecture of our software.

Of cause, devs can maintain their own documentation, but I guess this usually is something that is not done very well.

My personal experience: As soon as a company started their software without a framework, it became a huge mess. While onboarding, I observed very bad architectural decisions and even very severe security issues.

I'd say, only go with no framework, if you are experienced enough to technically create an own (good) framework.
From my observations, going without a framework was usually a decision done by young engineers.
Good job, cheap and irrelevant take.
It seems like there’s a constant ideological battle between the financiers on one side who make remarks about “employees complaining about the quality of toilet paper” and on the other, tech workers who have been consistently highly valued in their companies not liking being treated as disposable.

I think we know how most of us on HN feel.

The counter argument to treating your employees worse seems to be well exemplified here:

It's a Signal fork that uses Oxen, a Tor fork. It also changes a lot under the hood with regards to encryption, and I'm not smart enough to know if the changes are good or bad.

> You're saying that grpc and protobuf are over engineered but you're happy with Spring?

This was my reaction. Every Spring app I've been involved with was a nightmare of gratuitous complexity that was nearly impossible to debug. I'm sure if I were a master of Spring I could figure it out, but that's the nice thing about Go--pretty much any programmer could work out what's happening even if they aren't particularly familiar with Go. You don't have to trace something from XML to Java, and there is basically no magic (maybe the odd bit of Go reflection is the exception to the rule, but it's much less common than in Java/Spring and the "magic" is much less magical).

Same with sugar. For most people, Sugar is either pushing you over your calorie threshold or it’s displacing healthier food you could have eaten instead which is reason enough to reduce it.
> how much ostensible interest in more advanced topics is pure sophistry

This line is some amazing writing! Also extremely applicable to other areas of tech.
The tech isn’t what makes those ridiculous. It’s that there are a million and a half less obvious ways to achieve this goal. Starting with the fact we all carry our phones with us everywhere.
Population density is misleading. Vast majority live in urban and suburban areas. Urban areas can handle things just fine without cars (and really they need to stop catering to car transit, remove highways that go through downtowns, and eliminate parking options), suburbs just need to have zoning fixed so there are things like convenience stores or a local doctors office in your neighborhood. If you live in a rural area and want to drive a car everywhere that's perfectly fine, but we need to move away from focusing on what a small percentage of people do and focus on serving most people instead.

Suburbanites will certainly oppose this as well, but eventually economic physics will force them to change their habits regardless of what they want.

> We can barely maintain our existing infrastructure in too many cases, let alone rebuild it all.

Right, which is why doubling down on cars is bananas. We already can't afford to maintain all of these roads, let alone build new ones or expand. Fortunately, there is a lot of low-hanging fruit. Repurposing existing highways to initially allow for bus rapid transit alongside personal automobile transit, for example, can help. We probably need a nationwide moratorium on new road construction for 20-50 years to really get things back in a good state.
>So that's not normal but is an internal problem, even if a one off and not necessarily serious.

I've worked for the same firm (a medium-sized aerospace company) for 15 years.

Never once, for approximately all three hundred and ninety pay periods during that time, has my pay been even 1 femtosecond late, or the date of my pay been changed.

Is this really common and normal?

Personally, I consider it a gigantic, waving, red flag if payroll cannot push the button on time, every time, with no exceptions. That's the simplest and most fundamental business process there is: paying your employees.
I don't know how it would have gone remotely, but no issue in-person. I opened an invite QR on my device, asked parent to open camera, and point it at code. They get the gist that the app name is Snikket, they get notifications of messages and calls, and the layout and icons are pretty similar to every other messaging app. I am going to attempt it with an in-law who only just stepped into the smartphone era this month, has no familiarity with a smartphone interface, and is the least technical person I know.
Right. The problem is not difficulty, but motivation. The responsible programmer begriffs does not have the understanding why it is a good idea to do so, despite bug reporters on Github having spent years in discussions.
No, it's not possible to use violence against a corporation. It doesn't have a body, it can't feel pain, fear, etc. Ultimately, the violence needs to be directed at an individual. The government may (or may not) have declared that the corporation is dissolved before then, but that itself doesn't change anything because the corporation is just an abstraction. The action the government want to stop or compel can only be done by individuals.

It's ironic that you accuse me of wanting to enforce my views on others when that's precisely what you are arguing for, and I'm arguing against.

Nice to see this on the front page at the same time that a negative about Tailwind article pops up. Especially since I'm currently looking at whether to start using Tailwind. It's good to read multiple, conflicting, opinions about something.
Sorry for the bad calculations here, but 43,000 GWh/y means 4.9GW of new generation (this is assuming a capacity factor of 1), right? I’m just Googling around but I’ve seen capacity factor estimates at around 0.24 for CA utility-scale solar. Rounding, that’s about 20GW worth of name-plate installed utility solar capacity. I’m seeing estimates of $0.89 - $1.35/watt for building that solar. Which puts this cost around $17.8bn-$27bn in construction costs, which genuinely doesn’t seem that bad for a project as big as “electrifying all consumer transportation in a large state”? Obviously people will need to get used to charging their cars during the day, and this won’t be the only new power source.

I’m worried I missed a division and I’m off by a factor of 100x somewhere :)
It could be storing data and send it later when you visit the same origin from a different tab.

I'm no fan of extremists on either side but I think I agree with DHH on this. Restricting what a store sells doesn't seem to be a path forward. Of course, you are free to not purchase those things but that doesn't mean that no one else should be able to. It's kind of like the library; I may not agree with every thing on the shelf but I don't think I want to be the one banning or burning books.

>Sorry you’re interpreting the release of these documents as evidence that the conspiracists were right? If the conspiracy was correct, these would never be made public,

Just because a conspiracy has sprung leaks or failed in some vital aspect doesn't need to mean it never existed. Your argument is based on a very unusual definition of a conspiracy as a secret plot that's guaranteed to be all-powerful at information and damage control.

My conclusion is that we are not the target audience for fake burgers, because we are not missing what it's presumably giving some people. I'm pretty sure these patties are meant to assuage meat cravings in psychologically-obligate carnivores. Because otherwise, you're right. Almost all meat substitute dishes are missing the point; just cook vegetarian cuisine from the start. There are all manners of unhealthy deep fried deliciousness with plants, that don't involve heavily processing the plants to look and vaguely taste meaty first. And most of them, frankly, taste better than fake meat. But if you're in burger withdrawal, no onion rings or curry will help. Only meat, or perhaps, fake-meat, will sate that desire.
> You're not doing anything.

Eating plant based meat instead of meat directly causes less animals to be factory farmed as demand is reduced. That reduces suffering, seems like something to me

And in a way that same paragraph/criticism could have been written about Geocities in the early 2000's. Yet the simplified but imperfect onramp made a hundred thousand people more quickly understand their way into web development (including myself), than they would have without it.
It was a long time ago, so I'm operating off questionable memory here, but IIRC the major tell was looking at patient longevity (questionable hospices had longer patient tenure, presumably because of more aggressive recruitment of non-EOL pts) and distribution of inpatient care days (which have the highest reimbursement rate, so questionable hospices tended to max out inpatient days). There was definitely a correlation between size of hospice and those variables, and hospices involved in DOJ/HHS prosecutions were correlated with longer pt tenure and high utilization of inpatient care.

Your work sounds interesting and enlightening -- I'm not familiar with dialysis facilities clinically or from a business PoV, but I'm curious if they suffer from some of the same incentives issues as hospices, given the significant Medicare/Medicaid spend in that area, and the number of ESRD policy carve-outs.

Which conspiracy exactly are you referring to in this case? (Genuine question, I'm not up to date on anything to do with this.)

In general, I don't find that the specifics of conspiracies that come out were known before. It's not like people have been theorizing for years about X, then we find out that X is actually true. It's usually completely unrelated to the big conspiracy theories people are talking about.

So when a "conspiracy" comes out (and there's a question what we mean by conspiracy theory here,) when something like this comes out, I definitely update in the direction of "lots of things are happening in the world which I don't know about and might alarm me." But those things are usually far less impressive than real conspiracy theories make things seem.

I also update in the direction of "these kinds of things are hard to keep secret," since, after all, I'm hearing about them! Although I wonder how many things are never heard about?

In any case, the fact that it turns the FBI ran crazy programs in the 60s and we all know about it now does not cause me to update in the direction of "the moon landing is fake," or "9/11 was an inside job," or most conspiracy nonesense.

I don't know if doom or other sort of meta-emacs distributions are as useful as they were a few years ago. Good package management is baked in to vanilla emacs now, and most any package can be configured without writing a line of elisp with the M-x customize-group.

I recently went from a whole subdirectory of configuration files to the single default init.el and have been very happy with it. I am still using `use-package` for some packages, but I don't really find it any better than just M-x package-install and M-x customize group.

In fact I would encourage new emacs users not to use some any meta-distribution or third party package management - none of them will live as long as emacs (which will live forever).
It is not stalled, but as it currently stands, Henrik is bottleneck. He used to work like a fiend, but obviously its not sustainable for one guy to keep carrying on for something with as large scope as an Emacs distribution.

There are plans to split doom-emacs' core and contrib modules in separate modules, but no idea what the progress is on that.

This kind of "colocation" doesn't scale too well: a family of as little as two pages should share a stylesheet for their common classes, ids and common structures, not consistently repeat identical CSS in multiple files.

The common technique of defining components encapsulating related markup and CSS makes repetitions in the output pages harmless because they are write-only, but it only moves the problem one abstraction step up (families of components with related CSS).

I used to download movies and stuff from Usenet and I noticed that there were a lot of errors in the files even though TCP/IP uses checksums. I assumed this came from people downloading and uploading the files repeatedly and errors creeping in.

That's why these days I always use BitTorrent, because it uses cryptographic hashes (albeit the outdated SHA-1) and I'm therefore guaranteed that every bit is identical to the source.

> Math is necessarily consistent because, when we find inconsistencies, we remove them, so they are no longer valid math.

The former doesn't follow from the latter, because we may simply not yet have found any inconsistency, even though it exists.

Not sure if your point is just "if someone finds a contradiction in ZFC, it doesn't break maths, we'll just find a different foundation". Because I agree. But GP's point was about ZFC, a concrete set of axioms, being consistent.
> I’ve got no time to keep track of everyone’s baseless conspiracy theories.

Do you have time for conspiracy theories that are not baseless? Or, how about for ones that are actually true?

Or more generally speaking: do you have time to wonder about how much (genuine) interest you have in what is actually true, as well as believing only in what is actually true?

For example:

> I see those folks pat themselves out n the back when the flimsiest of “evidence” shows up.

What do you actually mean by this?

As a thought experiment...if you think of it in terms of a Venn diagram composed of:

- the entirety of all conspiracy theorists that exist

- conspiracy theorists who you have had exposure to

- conspiracy theorists who pat themselves out on the back when the flimsiest of “evidence” shows up

- conspiracy theorists who do not pat themselves on the back when the flimsiest of “evidence” shows up

...if you were to sketch these out on a piece of paper:

a) Do you think you would have difficulty drawing that diagram?

b) How would you go about deciding how much overlap for the circles?

c) How closely do you believe your diagram would match actual reality (assume that we have access to an omniscient being who knows the answers to all questions)?

This post reminds me this video monitor I used to own. When you turned it on, it would beep twice (with two different tones), and then say "O.K." in a robotic voice.

I always wanted to take a recording of it, but never found the time. Then I lost it when my basement flooded.

I also lost an old Commodore 1702 monitor. Apparently, they can sell for a few $100. Looks like CRT gaming enthusiasts want them.

....

Another memory: once on that Commodore monitor, and I don't understand how this happened, but I accidentally turned it into a Van Eck device. It picked up a ghost of the picture from a VGA monitor in a separate room. The way to get the picture to appear was by setting the refresh rate and resolution of the video card to some setting that was too high for the VGA monitor.

When on that setting, the VGA monitor would let out a high pitched wine, and the picture got all distorted.

My only guess as to how the picture was being transmitted was that composite video cable plugged into the Commodore monitor was acting as an antenna and picking up some radio waves being transmitted by the VGA monitor.

> Because meat tastes better, and I want it

Sorry, as a person who eats both, meat doesn't "just taste better". If by vegetables, you're referring to standard meat and 3 veg that western countries were used to, then yeah meat tastes way better. But if you're trying Indian/Thai, etc, vegetables can taste as good as meat, and in some cases, even better.
I thought that fashion show was great, the empty pit of mud is just hysterical, it is a bit of a shock act. The hole thing just seems like an inside joke that some people took too serious. This is a common problem with communicating things ironically, someone is bound to not get it. Dunno what happened with the photo shoot but probably the director was like put some paper on the table, and someone was like what papers, supreme court document, find some on the internet, I found a ruling about free speech and child porn, Ok great. You may say this is a stupid thing but then the highest court in the country decided to spend its time on the important legal distinction between child porn and free speech. Like that are very serious grown people spending their time on that. Fashion is stupid but at least is obvious to everyone and everyone but the biggest autist know everyone knows.

Also I don't see the difference between the work by Lotta Volkova and some drawings by Goya.
