If you have a lot of experience with seeing how layoffs go down in companies, you'll see that no one is ever satisfied with the way they are done. The reception of it is highly subjective.

I personally would want to get an email telling me directly and with no bullshit involved. I don't want to listen to a CEO come up with some fake apology, and I also want to absorb the news in the confort of my own time, in my own personal space, instead of feeling like cattle being rushed from one point to the next.

IMO there's barely any point trying to appease anyone, just do it, it's ugly, move on.

My binary response is to the absolutist tone of “everything” is ugly.

Not everything is ugly. Some buildings are ugly. Some are not ugly, but simply cheap.

I don't like a lot of stuff in my city. I am not calling it ugly.

In terms of writing a DHCP server there was research looking through Github, and the conclusion was that there is a gap in the DHCP space. DHCPd was approaching EOL (and now is EOL). Others in the DHCP industry were calling for options, and it looked like Dora could potentially fill some of those asks: https://ns1.com/blog/isc-dhcp-is-eol-what-will-replace-it
I'm in Europe (in Germany to be more precise), but believe you me, new buildings that I would describe as "beautiful" are few and far between here too. I think most of it is due to what I would call cookie cutter mentality. For most architects, a building is just a job. They don't realize that even the most unassuming building is something that may be used for 100 years and more, that will influence the lives of thousands of people (if only because they see it and seeing it makes their day a bit better or worse), and deserves to be treated as such.
Well there you go, use Signal. Telegram only has opt-in secret chats and they only work 1:1.

I'm not willing to have all of my personal communication sitting in plaintext controlled by an unprofitable company founded by Russians and located in the UAE. Even if they're not compromised, that's an incredible target for a state actor.
Less useful since Geometry Nodes were included, but generative/procedural stuff was only possible via the API for a long time. Besides that, every single addon is leveraging the Python API, so basically any functionality you get from installing an addon.

Besides that, I've written bunch of macros as basically python files I execute in Blender to do repetitive tasks. Another thing I've done is writing a distributed render queue for headless rendering, using the Python API.
And if the original had said more instead of the hyperbolic take alluding to "its wokeness thats the problem" about it and acting like there arent constantly discussions about it, then i wouldnt have commented.

And yes i can cherry pick articles going back decades warning of surveillance and how tech is driving us towards dystopia. It was my god damn policy debate case 20 yrs ago and its not receded for anyone actually at the table.

But hey, unexamined biases could be an alt name for this site.

Seriously, if you take discussions of surveillance and then derail the conversation to discuss folks discussing race and tech, how do you not realize youre literally self-actualizing what youre whining about? Da fuq was the point of this derailement other than yet another place for certain folks to yet again subtley whine about woke-ism? Eh?
Unfortunately this is true. I've been running IPv4/IPv6 dual stack since 2014 for most of my infrastructure and since 2016 for all of it. The company I work for now is a major AWS customer, and we managed to pressure them into enabling IPv6 for Global Accelerator, and have just recently launched full IPv4/IPv6 dual stack for our endpoints... in 2022.

I think that the primary root cause of this is economics, if we're being perfectly blunt. The countries/regions of the world that got most of the IPv4 address space are also the places where most of the money is, so businesses, especially businesses serving businesses, are not heavily driven to support IPv6 other than as a "checkbox", because their customers all have IPv4 and are not asking for it. Meanwhile in APJC/BRIC IPv6 is the dominant mode of connectivity, and many major businesses are IPv6 only or IPv6 primary w/ IPv4 CGNAT. When you enter into this market, IPv6 quickly becomes a requirement, however in EU/NA, it's just not required.

I am seeing this shift though, because of mobile-first consumer-oriented businesses. Globally, pretty much all mobile providers issue only IPv6 addresses that are globally routed to their subscriber devices and utilize CGNAT to get IPv4 connectivity. This is true even in North America. The problem is that CGNAT is /really/ good as far as "working", so from the perspective of endpoints they communicate with, it may not be obvious that IPv6 would actually benefit them. For mobile applications, IPv6 has a significant performance advantage because it skips CGNAT, and so at least in that space businesses are doing more to support it directly.
I use Vivaldi as my secondary browser and I like it. I use it because my workplace mandates Google Workspaces. I use it solely for work purposes for 2 main reasons:

1. It has tree tabs and I can't find any other Chrome based browser with Tree tabs

2. Google Meet is 2nd class citizen on Firefox and lacks many features.

> You're confusing it with the GM V6 which was optional in the Fiero and had timing gears that tended to go out around 80-100k.

No, I'm not.

I worked as a shop assistant @ v8archie.com in my youth, and swapped out the Iron Duke in my 2.5l Fiero purchased with a busted rod (surprise surprise!) in favor of a 3.1 stroker v6 that started life as the 2.8. The Iron Duke was the absolute laughing stock in that shop and the community in general. Neither of these engines were particularly good, but the Iron Duke was notoriously bad.

It took me under one minute with ddg search results to find this gem [0]:

'I have an '87 Sport Coupe with the 2.5L "Iron Duke". This past July, with 126,000 miles on the engine, the timing tear sheared off about 30% of its teeth and stopped the engine dead.'

The Iron Duke was so bad it singlehandedly ruined the Fiero's reputation by having a tendency to throw rods through the block which then set the car on fire by blowing crankcase gases and oil on the hot cat below.

Am I actually arguing with someone defending the Iron Duke on the internet first thing in the morning right now? On HN no less? What has the world come to.

No. The appeal of HN is that I can jump in when something is compiling, type in comments so fast that I break keyboards and then jump out.

There is nothing I dread more than "come to our Discord for support" for many reasons, but live chat just doesn't scale. One boorish person can deprive everybody else of use the room, there is usually some lifeless loser hanging out in the chat room to introduce themselves to newbies when nobody else is doing so (I have been that guy), and sexual harassment becomes an absolutely pervasive problem in a simulated VR environment.

Also remember that different religious agencies would decorate this way in order for you to keep giving a tenth of your earnings to the Church.

This was really no different than Apple making flashy buildings in order to attract the best workers and customers willing to pay higher prices. But as many churches that decorated, there were far, far, far more places that were boring and uninteresting in their times. There was great expense involved in creating these flashy features.

The impression I got is that they offer a pretty generous severance package and I appreciate their transparency. If I were to apply for a job here during better times I would see this post to judge the company's character.
Hey hackers,

Shuttle ( https://github.com/shuttle-hq/shuttle ) & Stefan Baumgartner ( https://fettblog.eu/ ) are hosting a free workshop titled "Rust for Javascript Developers".

So far, more than 800 hundred curious peeps have signed up, and we encourage you to do the same! :)

Rust Linz organizer Stefan Baumgartner will take you from project initialization to deployment by rewriting an Express.js based chat application that uses web-sockets into Rust, using the Axum framework & shuttle.

By doing so, he will highlight use cases, benefits, pitfalls, and major differences to other programming languages. All of that, in just 3 hours.

More info & signup can be found here: https://workshop.shuttle.rs/
Great product. Been using it for the past 5 weeks and I get more PRs in and reviewed. Took me maybe 3 minutes to set up and the team was very helpful

There's no particular guarantee that this will stick around either as Github/MS changes policies down the line. Some guaranteed long-term archive like archive.org would be better.
A lot more people could handle it than are admitted because you can pick the classes you want to take.

If you are saying a lot more people could handle taking the top level classes than are admitted, I would also agree - but most of those people go to similarly elite unis.
Wasn't the limiting factor RAM latency? Anyway, yes, computers parse way too much JSON, SQL, and whatever else. I've recently started working with gRPC, and boy is it nice. The current paradigm where every action requires a text blob to be written, compressed, then sent to a server that decompresses it, parses it, acts on it, then creates a new text blob that is compressed and sent out... It's a bit much. And that's before ypu add load balancers and microservices. gRPC cuts down on the parsing and compressing bits, but it's still quite wasteful.
Curious what others think the primary reasons are for this? I'm thinking that it's possible that a majority of their workforce is still working remote, and if you don't turn off system access prior to termination then people might be more likely to do nefarious things (compared to if they were terminated in office?)

>There's just so much that is horrifically wrong and sounds like a FOX News watcher's sweaty fantasy of what they think transgenderism is.

I'm the original poster you had originally replied to. I rarely see any Fox news content. I bet you see more fox news content than I do. Trying to associate a viewpoint with some news agency in the USA seems quite odd to me.

>It absolutely is a partisan issue, only insofar as the "classic liberals" on HackerNews who are promoting this transphobia haven't understood yet that they are not as centrist as they'd like to believe.

Or there is legitimate cause for concern and there's no transphobia at all. This isn't a partisan problem.

>* Transgenderism is testable, evaluatable, and has little to do with gender stereotypes like a boy playing with dolls

So you would agree we don't approve any surgeries or medication until there is a testable evaluatable test results confirming diagnosis with 0% detransition risk?

>* A boy can absolutely wear a dress to elementary school without a teacher starting talk of transition.

Videos on tiktok show quite the opposite. Dress wearing not even necessary.

>* But you're also dreaming if you think at any point - 30 years ago, 15 years ago, or now - a boy can wear a dress to school and not get bullied by a meaningful percentage of his male peers.

Was explicitly not allowed in my high school.

>* All transgender counselling starts with pre-existing condition consideration. As a trans friend of mine said "The first thing my transition counsellor asked me to do was quit my job. We needed to make sure I wasn't just depressed because I hated my job so much"

This story is older than perhaps about 7 years or so. wpath rules changed, the counsellors dont work this way anymore. It's considered a crime in Canada for a counsellor to do this.
Perhaps group policies are annual with a true up / down later in the year and best to not renew and let them sort out their own policy?
This fully explains my time working at a startup acquired by Amazon. We were provided the lowest spec macbook pro to the extent that lead engineers were literally waiting around for hours every day waiting for builds to complete. Some couldn't even use two monitors due to display output limitations.

Anyone who has worked for amazon is fully aware of how the company internals being literally held together with duct tape.
It's not just about seeing the problem but also knowing what you are dealing with. The majority of engineers or whoever call themselves engineers, don't know what an int is. Some Java programmers I interviewed years ago think the range of an the int type is, I quote "256", or "65 thousand-something", these were literal answers. Let alone it's not even a range!

So you are an Android engineer and you deal with ints a lot. Screen coordinates are ints on Android, so if you think the range of an int is "256" how do you think your app works at all?

This question reveals to me one of the most important things I'm usually looking for when hiring: natural curiosity. A software engineer should be curious about things he or she is dealing with. And that starts with the most trivial things like "what is an int really?" and then moves on to other concepts like: under the hood, what is a function?, what is a virtual method? what does `await` really do? And so on.

A good engineer should know how the computers work, and I don't know why this should be even questioned.
For one if they recognize that they are getting repeatedly ripped off, even the dimmest bulb may draw a conclusion eventually that as great as a feeling the idea of getting rich off of the traffic of the Brooklyn Bridge may be, that guy selling it is scamming you.

Fanatics are remarkably reality resistant but sustaining it within a group is more difficult and expensive in abstract ways, such as worse ability to recruit.
Yeah, I am disheartened by some comments in this thread as well.

Sure, let's implement these laws that essentially will be used for stiffening art, at least all these scammers (who already do illegal things) will start following the law, and these romance scams will stop /s.

This is like the gun control debate, but much worse. At least with gun control, it has strong ties to geographic boundaries, given that guns are physical objects, so I can see some decent arguments for why it (at least hypothetically) could work (e.g., Australia).

But with photos posted online, the locale is global internet, where everything is instantly reachable and replicable with pretty much zero marginal cost, from anywhere in the world. These proposals are imo peak idealism without much pragmatic thought applied at all.

Mind you, I am not saying "let's do nothing, things are all good." But some of the proposed "fixes" to this I've seen here are truly useless at best and harmful at worst.

There is nothing in the laptop or elsewhere to show that... the “big guy” referenced in the email is in fact Joe Biden

This sort of skepticism would make sense in a court of law, but on an online forum it is risible. Hunter knows nothing about Ukrainian energy, nor does he speak any Slavic languages. Also he is an unstable drug addict. There is only one possible explanation for his lucrative employment by Burisma. There certainly was an attempt to influence Joe, and that was the topic considered by that email. Your other caveats might well be correct; one suspects Hunter may be too much of a fuck-up to successfully convey an attempted bribe to its intended target.

"Adderall and generic-equivalent prescriptions exceeded 41 million in 2021, an increase of close to 20% from the year before, according to IQVIA, a data analytics company."

Does this count multiple prescriptions for a single person in a year? If not, it implies that 10% of the entire U.S. population received a prescription.

Windows uses a field that contains the size of the structure being passed to the API, presumably to differentiate between different versions. Ex:

> Because no body actually cares, no body will use your made up pronouns.

This is why some transgender and nonbinary people have stopped trying to reason with their friends and family about their gender identity, and have resorted to clicker-training them like dogs to use the appropriate pronouns and pay them basic human respect and dignity.
Thanks Iddan, for the feedback and for being such a supporter
anyone who thinks "ipv6mess" is still relevant in 2022, doesn't understand the problem space it describes.

part 1, interoperability failure/incompatibility: nat64+dns64 has been viable since 2008

part 2, incoherence: dual-stack was the transition plan, & was clearly communicated from the start (to anyone who listened). that turned out to not be so effective since so many ppl ignored the realities of legacy ip depletion. at this juncture ipv6-only (w/ nat64) is becoming a more preferable approach, since you only need to maintain a single protocol in the majority of your environment (as evidenced by org's like tmobile us, facebook, etc).

part 3, distractions: one could argue that rants like "ipv6mess" are the biggest distractions to ipv6 deployment.

"no one is asking for ipv6" is a lie writ large in the provider space; i've seen plenty of examples where a provider has told multiple customers "you're the first person to ask for ipv6 support!" - the problem being is that most org's don't actually keep track of such requests in a unified place, & so every customer is pushing for it alone, so far as the provider is concerned.
I think people really overestimate the likelihood of CPS taking their kid after a visit.

There are lots of kids in absolutely horrid conditions that CPS doesn't take, they're not going to take them from your middle class home just because your mother in law didn't happen to clean.
they don't offer free private ipv4 with nat?

these are all outbound reachability issues. the bigger concern i'd have would be inbound reachability for public services.

you don't need routable ipv4 addresses on every host to hit public ipv4 internet services!
> Fascism via "vokisch" movements and ideas attempted to more or less co-opt and own romanticism, classicism, and other forms of non-"modernist" aesthetics.

In my opinion, it's not so much that "fascism" (sort of a useless label in today's world) has co-opted traditional aesthetics, it's that the left has run away from the actual concept of beauty.

As an example: look at the body positivity movement. Everybody, no matter how obviously repulsive, is celebrated as beautiful no matter what. They're not just having their dignity as people recognized which is a great thing, but their actual level of beauty. How can the concept of aesthetics exist in a realm where everything is automatically labelled as beauty?

To have beauty, some must be recognized as better than others.
