As a former game dev turned regular old swe, I highly recommend just going the indie route (i.e. nights and weekends). Game dev is just doing software engineering, just harder (oh those trig classes matter! calculus has a purpose! linear algebra all day! ), that pays less,with the same or worse politics (studio bosses instead of eng/prod directors), and in most cases doesn't result in a playable game. Sorry, I'm jaded, left that industry at 27 and never looked back. One of my old bosses once told me that new 22 year old CS grads were "meat" for the grinder, and after even 3 years I knew why that's true.
Just goes to show that when scrutinised and pressed, ChatGPT is another AI hype tool that essentially is good at regurgitating nonsense and is even confident that its answer is correct.

As soon as it admits it's mistake, it even breaks and repeats the exact same verbatim response again. The hilarious part of it is that it completely fails at explaining itself and doesn't even know why it is giving the wrong answer, hence why it is as transparent as a black box.
I'm not GP, but I find the pandas API incredibly inconsistent and difficult to remember how to do simple transformations. For example, it sometimes overloads operators because it doesn't use built in language features like lambdas. There are reasons for the inconsistency, but using the alternatives like R's tidyverse or Julia's DataFramess.jl is like night and day for me.

I found RedFrames [1] recently which wraps Pandas dataframes with a more consistent interface, it's probably what I'd use if I had to write data transformations that had to be compatible with Pandas.

Google is completely useless for any long tail query. All the results are so heavily optimized for broad, generic queries that you have no choice but to append Reddit.com or Stackoverflow.com to get specific, targeted answers.
But is it about the average state of the reservoir or the extreme case of catching (all) the water you get during unlikely but intense weather events?
An alternative I found recently is RedFrames [1] which wraps Pandas dataframes in a more consistent interface. That might be a better alternative if you need easy compatibility with Pandas.

In every window manager that supports it, alt tab does two things.

Alt tab with a long hold on alt lets you select another window, albeit from a linear list as you describe, by cycling through with tab and shift-tab.

Quickly typing alt-tab now cycles between the window you came from and the window you just selected. That’s the super useful value of the feature.

Is there an i3 command to (a) leap to another window from a selection and (b) leap back and forth between the window you came from and the window you just chose?
I am not sure the West even needed to influence these people in the slightest when China has actively sought out western ideas since economic relations began anew back in the late 90s. If these people all saw a generation of success due to blending of profitable ideas, why wouldn’t they “turn west”, so to speak? But you are right, Ma did alert people in China(and the outer world) with how casually unaligned to the party his speech was.

They won't drop the language: whatever products depend on it will continue to depend on it. Unless hiring gets difficult; then they will transcribe it to a more mainstream language. In the meantime, language choice for new projects will be driven by experience hiring into these and other projects.

Other, newer languages will come up continually, siphoning off the most mobile who have begun to find Rust familiar and pedestrian.

Before we even get to endianness, there's a lot of C and C++ code out there in the wild that is technically broken because it assumes much more basic stuff like int being "large enough" - but the language spec only guarantees you 16 bits.

I think at some point we should just bite the bullet and say that this kind of stuff is not really meaningfully standard anymore, and the few niches that need it can be accommodated with extensions. It doesn't really make sense to place a tax on everything else.

Keep in mind that the complexity of your distributed system is a liability itself. Most cloud or large company downtimes aren't due to hardware failure per-se but either operator error or unexpected interactions between components of their distributed system. You might just be trading one source of downtime for another.

> the complexities of operating a service well.

Keep in mind that in a lot of business applications, downtime isn't the end of the world and might be an accepted and priced-in "cost" of doing business. Operating it as you consider "well" would just cost them more with no benefit.
I do think there is ambiguity in the value of a Director/VP of Eng in an Engineering organization. It's definitely harder to quantify.

From my experience, it's important to see your role as enabling people in the organization to be more effective rather than just you and your team.

That can take the shape of:

- Streamlining the hiring process

- Spend time on reducing build time / decreasing the time to run tests / focusing on local environment setup

- Reviewing how teams plan and interact with each other
My understanding is that you don't get to play politics with your success. Had he kept his nose only in his business he probably would have been better off.

Apple has paid out about $20 million dollars in their security bounty program, and a good portion of that must be iOS-related, so much so that they offer dedicated iOS devices to researchers.

iPhones have been jailbroken by visiting a webpage, receiving a message, or joining a WiFi network.

Just about every single iOS release is patching a vuln that was reported or found in the wild being exploited.

So, really, is the "furthest iOS malware" concern being 3rd party tracking a genuine statement?
Education. I think there's no good reason why only elite schools have access to great lecturers and great materials. Great lectures with great contents should be recorded once and be made digitally accessible to all schools. Teachers should be focusing on student developments at personal level instead of reinventing the wheels of preparing for lectures!

I was working on this as a startup, we did have some good results, but the challenge was to take it at a bigger scale. Unfortunately underserved schools/parents just don't have the spending priority nor the awareness on how important great education is, making it hard to make a profitable startup out of the idea. My next direction is to take it as a non-profit organization, and so I'm striving to start a different business which I can live off and hopefully cross-subsidy this non-profit idea. My journey is still long way to go :(

> I've never once had a manager say anything along the lines of "I just think we're building a bad experience if we release this early."

Then perhaps you had less-than-great managers, and I could think of a variety of reasons for that.

Maybe it was as simple as you claim: no consideration was made to introducing an undercooked user experience. But if a software development manager is green lighting that, likely causing more work for customer service and perhaps sales, I would hope there’s more to the story than that.

Maybe this manager didn’t communicate why releasing a bad experience by a specific date was, perhaps, mandatory to fulfill a contractual obligation. Or maybe you were not able to sort that out from the limited amount of information they gave you.

Maybe they didn’t see the bad UX as truly as bad as you, and perhaps your team, thought it was. Maybe where you thought the feature’s UX passed the 80/20 rule was different than many customers.

I’ve had (product and project, not as often people) managers who have pushed to hold on delivering a half-baked implementation. And I’ve been a manager who has done that. Those better managers exist

Did you ever get feedback or do something to reevaluate why the bad experience was shipped?

The experiences you describe do sound like clueless folks making calls, but know that there are folks in management positions not just wildly flailing about.
That makes sense, I guess I forgot that lots of the world effectively moved on from SMS to other messaging/apps.
Unless there are fewer people. Or you become more efficient.
I suspect it exists because the person above them just wants one person to yell at and doesn't want to learn the names of everyone below them.

The manager isn't a genius and the employees aren't morons. The business objectives could be explained to those employees and they could coordinate with each other to fulfill them without necessitating a conductor. Deep hierarchies are archaic holdovers from military organizational thinking.

This is a significant underestimate. Consider that the Citi Double Cash card gives unlimited 2% cash back on everything, and that a lot of other cards offer even higher rates (I've seen 5%) for individual categories.
This comment made me think of the book The Goal, by Goldratt. I wonder who at the company was tasked with clarifying what the ultimate goal was to every employee? And if everyone measured success in that way?

ChatGPT wrote the following poem for me about Kubernetes
Kubernetes, a horror to behold,
A tangled web, a cluster of cold,
A confusion of pods, and nodes, and scripts,
A nightmare to deploy, and troubleshoot, and fix.

It's a monster, a beast, that never sleeps,
It eats up resources, and CPU, and memory,
It crashes, and burns, and takes down the whole site,
Leaving users stranded, and administrators in fright.

But still we cling to it, with desperate hope,
For it is the future, and we cannot cope,
Without its power, and scalability, and flexibility,
So we tame the beast, and pray for reliability.

Kubernetes, a love-hate relationship,
A constant struggle, a never-ending trip,
But in the end, it is worth the pain,
For the power it brings, is worth the strain.
You might be overestimating Google the business organization.

This is a largely rudderless company that does a gazillion things without any overarching vision. It’s a one trick pony as far as monetization is concerned (ads!), and it’s leadership is more attuned towards optimization than innovation.

Google the business org will never let Google the tech org succeed in a competitive AI arms race. No exec will green flag a product that eats into the Adwords money printer

> I consider NVMe-over-fabrics to be cheating

Is an infiniband switch connected to a bunch of machines that expose NVMe targets really that different from a SAS expander connected to a bunch of JBOD enclosures? Only difference is that the former can scale beyond 256 drives per controller and fill an entire data center. You're still doing all the compute on one machine so I think it still counts.

My entire school did this. We even got a special notebook thing that had the pages laid out and also had other organizational stuff in it. The notebook and the notes in it were what we got graded on. No homework, no tests, we weren't really expected to study the notes, just take them. There were some other activities that involved the notes though at school, semi regular group and class discussions and we would reference notes. I also seem to remember teachers giving us notes too. Like after our notes from the previous day were graded they would handout a set of notes that were the ideal notes. I actually liked it, we only had 4 classes per day that were 90 minutes each and two of them were non-academic like PE, Band or Autoshop. Then if you were doing poorly you could come in early or late for zero and fifth block which were a 1 hour condensed recap of your previous academic classes. It also wasn't setup by grade so you could have all years in the same class even though most had a majority of one grade. It was a bad school though, an hour to get through metal detectors, ID had to be work facing outward at all times in an acceptable position. There was no being late or tardy either. The doors locked when the bell rang and no one could be in the halls without a security escort. If you did leave class to go to the bathroom you couldn't go back. Even still there were shootings. No bookbags were allowed so we didn't have take home books unless we were reading one in class like Malcolm X biography or the caged bird.

We have wealth taxes. They are called property taxes in the US. I have to pay a percentage of the value of my house. And I can't sell a tiny piece of my house to cover it. I have to use my other funds to pay for it. That seems so unfair, the poor weak billionaires of the world say. When My house goes up in value, my tax will go up, and down works the other way too.

Billionaires cry and moan about the impossibility of paying a wealth tax on their billions in stock. They can manage to do it, just like all the rest of us. The wealth tax is claimed to be this exotic impossible thing. Yet most every home owner in the us is paying, us 100 million plus people. Surely the rich, those who have millions or billions can do the same. The reason they don't is they have captured the legislature, their fox new advertising is very successful, no one wants to tax the very wealthy because surely they will be wealthy one day.
Sure, but we're talking Vim here. Is that more random than `"0p`? Or `ctl-o`? Or `ctl-6`? Mnemonics are important for operations we only perform a few times per day or every other day or less. But we're talking about a _built-in_ mapping for an operation that is performed probably as much as 1000 times per day, give or take. Convenience beats out mnemonics here because you don't need them (if you care to use it).

I also think the bikeshed should be lime green :)
This kind of thing has been proposed many times over the years. It even existed back in the 1980s. I don't care much for it because it balkanizes the language into mulitple sub-languages.
This is an extremely naive understanding of how anabolic steroids work. Side effects such as the two you've listed here — respectively: upregulation of the RAAS pathway causing increased blood pressure and sodium retention, and a failure to include an aromatase inhibitor to prevent the conversion of testosterone to estrogens — are relatively rare, especially to a degree where they'd be highly visible.

Also, an 8 minute mile is not a particularly high bar to clear and with the increased work capacity granted by basically every single popular steroid (funnily enough, HGH would probably not confer immediate/direct benefits in this scenario in the same way that less exotic PEDs could) it would be trivial for most users to do with little to no preparation.
