It seems weird to accuse social media of killing the personal blog, especially by waxing nostalgic about the early web. You know what else didn’t exist back then? The Verge. Notably the author chose not to post this article on their personal blog.
Sleep works consistently for me on older laptops in Linux. My main personal laptop is still an X230, which is rock solid. I do still check that it's asleep though, and there's a handy indicator light on the lid to confirm that. Newer laptops have indeed been less reliable. I always check the power LED if the machine has one.

> For me the only laptops I’ve ever seen that had consistent, efficient, and “just working” sleep is MacBooks.

Up until last year I've used exclusively MacBooks for work (not by choice) and I've had the same issues with those at various points. Tip for MacBook users with the same issue: turn off the setting that allows Bluetooth devices to wake the machine. If a key on your Bluetooth keyboard ever gets pressed while the laptop is nearby it'll wake the laptop in your bag and then often it won't go back to sleep.
This is why I love my nikon. In this day and age, it has descent sensors (it uses sony sensors). and While the glass is excellent, its a bit pricy while the price on competitors have come down.

But what nikon really excells at is making a good camera. Its their focus

sony - an electronics company that makes camera

cannon - an imaging company that makes cameras

nikon and fujifilm are the only camera makers for working class photographers that are camera makers at heart. When you pick up a nikon, all the buttons are easy to reach and the balance is perfect for holding all day. (i've heard similar things about the fujifilms) I have a z5 and aside from soms autofocus issues, it does a great job of getting out of my way when I'm trying to take a photo.
This is pretty neat, but are they actually playable by a single human pianist? There's parts of the demo video where there are 10 simultaneous notes being played over 4 octaves, which doesn't seem humanly possible. Identifying the notes and chords being played is a big step but you've also got to adapt to the limitations of the instrument and figure out how to simplify it to be playable while retaining the same essence. That's a big part of what makes arrangement difficult.

High conscientiousness correlates with agreeableness; it's rare to have a highly conscientious, highly disagreeable person who would actually go out other way to offend others. So I don't think that's that's the explanation.

Further, commentors on any particular subject are, I think, statistically more likely to be monomaniac obsessives, and that correlates with poor social skills (e.g. truth-seeking at the cost of empathy). In other words, autism.
Land and improvement are taxed at the same rate, based on appraisal. There are certain exemptions for farmland, homestead etc.
Your suggestion of zod is a very good one. I’ll take it further and suggest that if one wants to really embrace and learn TypeScript (or type systems like it), implementing your own zod-like library is an excellent learning experience. Building a set of composable “parse, don’t validate” primitives will help you think in the way the type system is designed to be most effective. And you’ll generally write better code for it.
n8n is not open source and many of the projects are using a hybrid licensing model. Code on GitHub is "source available", not necessarily "open source"
That's literally the fucking problem. Two legal systems, one for "elite" where they get a fucking slap on the wrist, and one for the "poors" where you get the living shit beat out of you and end up with a hospital bill and a charge for "resisting" arrest when they twisted your arm so hard that you involuntarily resisted the movement.

When it comes to poor people cops will do shit like throw a baton on the ground, put a suspects hand on it, and then claim they had gone for their weapon, beating them and taking them in for arrest right away.

When it comes to the "elite" they make a nice phone call and ask them when it would be convenient to come in for "questioning" because "we couldn't possibly arrest such an upstanding citizen" which is code for "we don't fuck with this guy because he butters our bread."

The Trump Organization got away with doing this in New York for decades. He'd stiff one real estate developer figuring there was always another who would be star-struck by the "opportunity" to work with him. (He was right.)
It’s fair to be skeptical of economic predictions, as yes, most end up being wrong.

But in this case the Fed is quite clearly aiming to orchestrate a spike in the unemployment rate, and pretty much all of history is pointing towards the current macro setup ending with recession.

By and large people tend to be overly optimistic that this time is different re economic cycles and monetary policy.

E.g. Wall Street analysts predicted 10% earnings growth in 2008, and ended up being -70%.
10 Reasons why the city of the future will be car free
The key thing here is that the loan payments are new, and are greater than profits were before the loan payments. That doesn't necessarily mean they are losing money -- revenue could have increased, or costs decreased, to make up the difference. Losing money also wouldn't mean they're insolvent -- that only happens once liabilities exceed assets.

Still, it's definitely a signal that creditors will take note of. Good luck renting an apartment as an individual with books that look like that.
Depends what kind of business

Making yourself a one man consultancy or contractor is also a business and has a decent success rate if you’re actually good

A Saas business, startup, or similar? Yeah much lower probability

But even in the latter case if you don’t have much living expenses it can make sense to make a modest living and enjoy your day to day much more.

Bottom line as with so many things in life: don’t do it for the money
“True accounts of supernatural encounters had while working in tech”
It's perfectly possible to run a blog that isn't optimised for social media users or private. The kind of exposure I could get from those sites is also the kind I can do without, I don't think I'm alone in holding that belief either.
My experience with kagi.com has generally been positive. I don’t use them often because I browse exclusively in Safri in private mode - the search defaults to Google and there isn’t a good way to switch it to Kagi for me.

Give it a try. I often find what I’m looking for within the first few results.
It does not handle deletes / updates of the source table at all - it means the data of the materialized view become unaffected. Nothing sophisticated...

About the multi-level aggregate queries - the only way is to define a materialized view for the inner query and do calculations on top of it on the fly. So, the data for the inner query will be pre-aggregated, but nothing on top of that.
> Escalating racial and ethnic hate was lead up to war.

That's exactly what I'd think. And historically I'd wager
every well documented example shows it.

And yet Zizek gave that as a first hand account (that's where he is
from please correct me if I am wrong), and it's an intriguing
hypothesis. Certainly an unpopular one judging by my immediate
down-vote for even mentioning it (as an open question no less)

I don't think he was talking about "hate". He was talking about open
acceptance of difference. That's what it seems is getting ever less
permissible - and that's what I find concerning.

Can we no longer make that distinction? Are we too timid to even
discuss that? Is that what social media has done to us?
no takers?

It isn't going to be something I choose to run until there's a VR system that works for it that doesn't feel like it is alpha quality. Even Valve's own Index only kinda-sorta works with half of the features.
Yeah, I have not used the program myself, I was an idiot when I started running, but I have only heard positive things about it. And the design of it looks pretty clever, it starts out very casually but it still ramps up quickly enough to give a sense of progress.
Curing death would have obvious downsides. Most people would not be able to procreate - the world would overcrowd. The really bad people of history could find themselves in permanent long-lasting power (think Putin for a modern example). I think you can come up with 100 reasons why curing death would be bad. As Steve Jobs said, death is life's greatest invention.

Most recessions are identified after they've occurred, particularly on a global scale, since the evidence is rarely obvious. Not all countries, industries, states will be affected equally. It's completely possible the recession has already occurred and we're currently in the midst of it.
No.

Stop being old and grumpy and join in instead.

No one outside of here much cares about the fine grained differences between GNU/Linux and Unix and they mostly shouldn't have to.

The more important part is that the general spirit (strongly buttressed by the GPL and Stallman, I'd argue, more than anything else but we can debate) represents a better and smarter way of looking at computing than letting everything we do get taken over overly greedy companies. There's some need for "capitalism" for sure, but this was the more important part.
I’ve found similar and settled on three distinct solutions that tackle different aspects of the problem that soft deleting covers.

The first is analytics/reporting, which can be used to aggregate or otherwise store data without being coupled to the main application (therefore, not a problem to delete data if it’s been processed already).

The second is auditing to maintain a paper trail.

The third is a soft delete backed by a TTL, basically so there’s a window of time to undo the operation, but the data doesn’t remain there forever (which might be a problem with GDPR and the like - depending on what your data is.)

Main reason I had for trying to break it down this way was because soft deletes in a relational database, with foreign key constraints, becomes unintuitive pretty fast. You need escape hatches to properly delete records, you need to remember to filter deleted ones from your results, and then there’s even more complication when trying to handle this across associations. So the final piece is only to soft delete things that require it, rather than enforcing it across all tables.
> I've tried linux 3 or so times over the years, always the "friendly" distros.

In 2023, you should not try as many distros as possible. They are all similar enough. You should try hardware designed for Linux, instead of one forcing Linux developers to reverse-engineer WiFi and suspend to make it work. Ideally, try it preinstalled. I am happy with my Librem 15, no tinkering is ever required.
I did this last year with an app.

In between there was kind of a huge increase in the running part I couldn't manage, and the app was kinda buggy, so I didn't keep at it.

But I noticed some endurance improvements in my daily life, so I would recommend.
I've been a hiring manager for a couple of years now, and have nearly 10 yrs professional dev experience in the industry.

Bootcamps are a red flag for you? What? Do you have any rationale for that? Makes zero sense to me. If someone has done a bootcamp, that's a big plus. Online college is neutral.

The rest I agree with.
I don't think uber will be relevant in a city that does not have automobiles for private transportation.
I'd agree that the Ukraine war is taking the heat for whats probably the result of economic policy. Late 2019 things wete already starting to look a little glum. 2020 everybody put a bunch of money into the system and 2021 was the world living fast and loose from that excess. 2022-2023 feels like a correction from 2020-2021 and one that's plainly predictable which is why this prediction has been well predicted in most markets and news outlets at this point. I have no idea why this seems like news at 11 for the HN crowd, but shrugs. Hope you're locked into diversified portfolios!

PS: though you can blame policy, I'd argue the hit now was a small price to pay for the potential for a much harder hitting system collapse if the COVID shock was ignored.
Who cares? It's all funny money anyway.
He “recovers” the value of the loans he defaults on, which could easily be worth more than Twitter at this point.
"Business" or "money sink"?

Everything about this "boom" from 2012 on was, from a market perspective, about as artificial as you could get. At least the events leading up to the .COM and '08 crash there weren't central banks openly putting their thumbs on the scales by being an active market paticipant buying debt securities, the quality of that debt be damned, and making price discovery next to impossible.

The lesson investors took from '08 and certainly from 2020 was that the powers that be will gladly use moral hazard to protect asset prices. Profits are privatized and losses are socialized.
I have a person on my team that does not want to use IntelliJ (we are doing Java), instead it relies on VSCode although the company paid for IJ license. Is this a symptom of strong preferences or being immature? Probably both.

I don't want to use Windows, when I hunt for jobs I avoid jobs that do not offer mac/linux laptop. This is probably immature (or as programmers we are simply spoiled).

There is hype. Some people that for 10+ years where writing Java are jumping ships to learn Go. Go is like Java 1.6, the error handling is cumbersome. Yet all those people say the simpler language is the better. They are the same people that a few years ago were cheering for functional programming in Java and streams...

Finally we have this cult of x10 programmer, being oncall 24/7, macho work ethic (workaholism) and changing the world. Seems like kids gone wild.
Conference talks that impacted my career the most
I faced the same problem breaking into the job market right after the early 2000's .COM bust. I didn't get any calls back for full-time opportunities. Even entry level ones.

What I did find was available were freelance gigs. I found these on job boards and started to build out my experience with individual projects. I also went to networking events and ended up getting a few jobs this way as well. I also did some free work for non-profits to round out my experience.
I did this freelance work while I was in school and for about a year and a half after I graduated.

It took hundreds and hundreds of hours and hundreds of inquiries to get my first few jobs. It's a numbers game, but you still need to be competent and confident. After my first few freelance gigs I was "experienced" and was able to fill up my resume with the projects I worked on. I did good work so my clients introduced me to their friends, customers and clients and I got more work. One of my clients extended a full time offer to me, so that was my first FT job out of school.

Putting on my hiring manager hat for a moment, I really don't want to hire someone with no experience unless they are exceptional. Contributing to an open-source project would count as experience, but I would prefer experience in a business setting. Personally, I don't care as much about a degree.

To land your first freelance gig, I 2nd the advice about contributing to an open-source project, setting up a website portfolio and having business cards printed. You're trying to show your competency.
Likewise, I actually love that feeling when you’re running and after a certain point of exertion your mind goes blank - I find it so rare to have a blank mind in day to day life. Similar feeling to when you’re skiing/snowboarding and really in the zone, though not as intense.

I do sometimes find I come up with good ideas for work/whatever when running, so it can be a good way to ponder things like that and I’ll sometimes record a short voice memo on my Apple Watch otherwise I forget what I thought of. But after 20 minutes or so I find my mind kind of defaults to blank and I like that!
TikTok is ‘digital fentanyl,’ incoming GOP China committee chair says
The quality of Thursday night football on prime video was amazing this year. But like I said the problem isn't technical. I can't watch the games I want to watch on streaming services.
I noticed on myself that running long distances is also willpower training.

Being able to force myself to stick to something hard/painful causes me to also expand my ability to stick to other things.

And when I can't run (for example due to injury) it also affects my ability to stick to a lot of other things that should not be affected by my knee.

Another reason why I think running is so beneficial is because when you start it you see obvious, epic improvements in your performance.

I literally was doing runs I did not think possible just a month earlier.

It changes your perspective on what is and what is not possible.

And if this happens to you it may cause you to start investigating and making a lot of other health-related changes.

I think this is what takes time -- they have to build more than a circumstantial case that the crime was committed and as you said the suspect is not going to confess so they have a large hill to climb.

Flying to an island on his plane (even after everything we know about that has happened on that island residence) does not itself indicate any wrong doing -- they have to fond more evidence that links the threads together. If they charge or show their hands before they have enough it sets various clocks in motion that can harm the long term cases.

I have faith they are still working as many of these as they can looking for charges -- its only faith.
Generate logos using Dalle-2 and dotnet core
This works if what you’re buying is fair value. Plenty of dotcom names went to 0, or took 15+ years to break even.

As long as there’s a future for the company and valuation is fair, you should be fine though.

I’m doing the same. My threshold is roughly PE 15 or less with strong balance sheet and decent growth. Lots of REITs that are pretty sure bets at closer to 10x or lower multiples.

Still would not buy any 10x or more PS companies. By and large going to be stinkers over the next decade imo
I'm sure we used to have one.

Something to do with 3 quarters of negative growth
“Hogging” memory correlates with better throughput in case of GCd languages, and Java really shines on this front, it is not an accident that it is the numero uno choice for big backend services. Performance is also not really in favor of Go besides basic examples where value types can help. Any bigger example, and heap allocation won’t be avoidable and Java’s GCs are the state of the art to a huge degree.

And the final point, why reinvent the wheel each time? Go recreates a bunch of tooling, ecosystem that already existed.
Meta's New Vision of the Future Doesn't Mention the Metaverse Even Once
It’s really not just an Elon or Trump thing. I used to work for a firm that did market feasibility studies and we had some multi-millionaire developers that didn’t pay us for our work despite having the cash to do it. And we are talking about a mere $9000.

You couldn’t send it to collections so you had to just politely nag them until they got sick of you calling and paid their bills. The process took about a year and maybe 50 very nice phone calls.
> You ask a normie "what's your opinion of Windows 10?" and they'll have one, good or bad. You ask a normie what their opinion of Linux is and most of them won't even know the word, let alone have one. That's why it isn't and may never be "the year of Linux on the desktop."

The fact that the vast majority of consumers don't have any awareness at all that Linux is a simple, widely-available desktop is evidence of the opposite: that the public hasn't decided against Linux, and that the sky is the limit for growth.

i.e. If electric cars had 2% of the market, and 90% of people hadn't even heard of electric cars, the first approximation of the potential market for electric cars as they are is 20%. You'd refine that based on comparing characteristics of the 10% who had heard of them to the 90% who hadn't, but 20% is good enough for a napkin.

With 1) the slow decline in quality and growth of data mining and ads in Windows and MacOS, 2) the ending of Moore's Law, meaning that the development of at least single-threaded software is slower than it used to be, allowing FOSS to catch up where it is behind, 3) greater compatibility and shared software than ever between Windows, MacOS, and Linux through various subsystems, VMs and containers, and 4) the movement of a lot of software to the web, I believe that desktop Linux could take over at any time (or never.)

Windows could just pull another Vista at the same time Apple disables some functionality as a business strategy. Or they could both get cancelled due to major personalities associated with the brands also being associated with politics and the media; Bill Gates obviously, but Jobs' widow owns the Atlantic. Both, neither, or anything else could happen while the Linux desktop was in really good shape and compatible with most of the software that people use.

> If it turns out to be more dystopian than the reality of watching our loved ones fade and disappear while we ourselves grow weak and fade, we can always bring death back.

Usually the dystopian aspects of immortality revolve around power imbalance/inequality; in such scenarios its not obvious that death can be brought back
But "software supply chain security" also encompasses proprietary dependencies. A game dev using a third-party engine still has to care about the security of that engine. Likewise for proprietary plugins to various programs. Likewise for all proprietary software used by the company (MS Office, etc). They're all part of that company's "software supply chain", even though they're not open-source.
The really bad people of history could find themselves in permanent long-lasting power (think Putin for a modern example). I think you can come up with 100 reasons why curing death would be bad. As Steve Jobs said, death is life's greatest invention.

On the contrary, Putin showed how dictatorships are vulnerable to defeat, if not collapse.

It seems more like we're justifying death rather than solving challenges.
