And I insist: NTFS has support for POSIX attributes. NTFS3 proves that: you can install arch on C:\, and use it normally.

WSL1 doesn't support POSIX attributes, just like ntfs-3g didn't support them, but it's not a limitation of NTFS.

Agreed, most apps I use already don't use native controls, like Slack, Discord, Spotify etc, and I don't want my apps to do so either since I have a custom design. I think people on HN think users care about platform UI when we see that most users really don't notice or care.

No, companies layoff when they want to spend less money paying people. Being "in some sort of trouble" is only one of many reasons why they may choose that course.
Hey there - Flutter team member here. Support for integrating arbitrary non-flutter views/widgets (referred to as PlatformViews in Flutter terminology) is something we're actively working on at the moment, once we've got them landed, web views and video player support are top of our list in terms of views to add support for. We know people can't wait for this to land, and believe me, I can't wait for it to land either :)

PlatformView support is one of our top desktop priorities this year (along with multi-window support).

Do you happen to any stats to support that?

I took a quick look. Canada seems to accept around 430k legal immigrants and had another 30-40k illegal crossing in 2022.

The US seems to have admitted 1 million between July 2021 and July 2022 so lets say somewhere around 1 million legal immigrants were accepted in 2022. Illegal crossing were around 2.7 million for 2022.

I take a look at these numbers I scratch my head at your statement. The US has orders of magnitude more illegal crossings. In fact the US average for 1 month is 225k which is almost 6 times as high as the YEARLY average for Canada. The numbers are pretty clear about where they are going. Nothing is stopping those entering the US illegally from entering Canada illegally too. Yet I can't seem to find any numbers that support that idea that even a fraction of the ones entering the US want/try to go to Canada.

Þe Meaning of 1870: Þe Year Everything Changed
There was, until recently (I'm pretty sure it's gone now), a Ghibli/Miyazaki exhibit at the new AMPAS museum in LA. It was an amazing show. They had many of Miyazaki's original watercolors there and they were so, so good.

The part missing from the "paint like Miyazaki" instructions is the part where you study and draw for 60 years! He has the touch of a master, both delicate and confident in the way of, say, Ingres and Watteau drawings. Much different subject matters, obviously, but it's the feel I'm talking about. Absolutely beautiful. And he is a master watercolorist, which itself takes a long time to learn.

This is not to dissuade anyone from picking up these things. Just please don't expect too much too soon!

Some reasons the tooling is worse:

1. A lot of the tooling is made by the hardware suppliers. Hardware suppliers tend to be very bad at writing desktop software; I have some theories as to why that is, but no direct evidence for them.

2. When tools are selected, they are rarely evaluated by software developers who will be using them. It's more like "Here's a list of boxes anything our development tools need to check" and then the final selection for anything that checks engoubh boxes is done for business reasons (cost, likely availability of support down the line &c.)

3. The same reason that embedded developers are often paid poor salaries; for a lot of hardware companies, the firmware development is treated more as a cost-center than as something that generates revenue.

Somebody should write fanfic where jart goes back in time and forestalls the Java revolution in ~roughly 1995 by releasing Blink. Instead of the entire several decades of Java (and Javascript), Blink becomes the technology underlying web (the browser is really just a portable presentation layer) server and client programming. Lightweight phones with long battery life and portable architectures revolutionize mobile computing 5 years earlier. World GDP is 35% higher, and life is generally happier, and much easier.

This is not quite true. To be exempt from overtime, the position has to pay that much and meet a set of requirements[0]. The inflated "manager" titles are not just to dupe the employee, they're an attempt to skirt Federal labor laws, which is why the article mentions companies losing lawsuits over this practice.

0: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/17a-overtime

"However, Section 13(a)(1) of the FLSA provides an exemption from both minimum wage and overtime pay for employees employed as bona fide executive, administrative, professional and outside sales employees... Job titles do not determine exempt status. In order for an exemption to apply, an employee’s specific job duties and salary must meet all the requirements of the Department’s regulations."

How's your work-life balance? I worked in the games industry a couple times, at Activision in the 1990s and later at Rockstar, and like almost the entire industry, everybody was in crunch mode almost all the time. I remember when the list of holidays came around one year, Christmas was on a Saturday so they gave us Friday off. Someone asked if we were also going to have the Saturday, Christmas day, off.

Programming is essentially solving puzzles, so you can find the work interesting even if the topic area isn't interesting. No seven year old says "when I grow up, I want to write a memory allocator!" but doing it well, with as few CPU cycles as possible, without fragmenting memory too much, is an interesting challenge.

I wouldn't worry about what people have in their job descriptions. There's a quote from John Carmack about an ad for a Oculus dev that he technically wouldn't qualify for, and DHH who invented Ruby on Rails, was called by a recruiter asking whether he had 10 years of Rails experience when Rails was only 9 years old. A "Senior C++" engineer might just mean more than 2 years of experience with C++, who knows.
If your parents did something so impactful in your past that you have to live with the consequences of those events for the rest of your life, blame shouldn't end at childhood. They too were agents in your life whether you desired it or not. It's not as though childhood and adolescent scars disappear upon turning 18. With that said, I agree with your general point on choice.
To further the idea, C++ can be loved if the firms invest dollars, invest marketing (open source, other ways) of it. They should support/invest in the community they want to hire from.

I used to go by Satoshi Nakamoto and be in the group Anonymous. I put out a few of those videos, but people kept challenging whether I was the "real" Anonymous.

As a prescription eye drop user for over a decade, this scares me.
I've only worked in tech for a decade but I remember seeing this back then, and can find articles two decades ago about the same thing. There's just so much code in C++ that can't be re-written or can be re-written but will take hundreds of developer years. For example Rust doesn't even have a spec. I don't think I could use Rust for regulated healthcare/defense fields? There's not really that much support in hardware for Rust in robotics. If something works in banking why risk moving to Rust? Etc... I think Rust has a place but right now I'd wager a C++ code base is worked on way after the last Rust code base has been created.
Only finance and game dev was a little bit of hyperbole. I do see other jobs for like aerospace or GIS, at least looking at job postings on LinkedIn. Though I most assuredly do not have the requisite skills outside of just C++ to work in those fields.

I think big tech has the same issue where they don’t want to cultivate talent. I doubt Google or Microsoft would consider me at this stage in my career because I lack a college degree.

I will say that I do get recruitment emails from Amazon, though I’m sure those are just shotgun blasted to anyone with a pulse and a LinkedIn.
I'm not a kid now :) but I tinkered a lot with tech as a kid and still do today as an adult.

Most of that came from the fact that I didn't have a lot of the stuff others had - no cable TV, outdated computer, etc. Thus the tinkering came out of necessity and over time I started to like it. That stuff broke constantly and I remember searching for troubleshooting info on school computers to bring home and try.

I did have the Internet though, and soon began exploring Linux, finding ways to make the computer faster, learning to repair secondhand equipment, and so forth. Not having easily accessible entertainment also had the bonus of getting me into other hobbies like writing, drawing, and music which I still do today. The more you do these things, the more you like them - and the satisfaction of making or fixing something is always greater than mindless consumption.

And before you ask - yes, my social life suffered a bit as I couldn't play the games others played, talk about the shows they watched, etc. I knew many other kids who were "good" with tech, but they didn't really have the motivation to tinker as they could easily buy stuff that just worked.
I have tried several times to learn Haskell. The only resource that actually worked for me was Philipp Hagenlocher's "Haskell for Imperative Programmers".

It is incredible. He does an amazing job of starting from the basics and then diving deep. After going through the series I had a solid enough grasp on the language to use it for practical things.

Yeah but then you go in to interview at these places and someone who only programs javascript or python will ask you to answer a contrived whiteboard question by hand that involves manually writing out verbose C++-isms like "std::unordered_map<uint64_t, std::string_view> hashmap;".

I went through a day of interviews at Facebook once where not even a single person interviewing me worked in C++. A lot of the interview cycle consisted of me answering basic syntax and STL questions or clarifying my handwriting which made it extremely difficult to finish the problem in the allotted time.

No, it's not that power usage for us is free, it's that the business is growing (like any startup), so there is already a constant expansionary pressure on our regions; for the foreseeable future (years), our regions will tend to have significantly more servers than a scheduler would tell us we needed. Whatever we save in power costs by keeping some of those servers powered off, we lose in technical operational costs by keeping the rest of the servers running artificially hot.
Did they "need" to do it?

Yes, that's the question. GP's point is that the financial situation of the companies is a confounding factor, and unfortunately the analysis does not address this. The conclusion, "Layoffs don't work", does not seem to be supported by the data/analysis that was presented.
It's difficult to fund enough skilled programmers to work on stuff like this full time, and productionize the results in a coherent product. A good example is a sibling comment that says "it would mostly be easy except for the GUI" and that's assuming "no allocations." The things customers pay you for are often the hard parts like that stuff, not the theoretical parts you can enjoy from a PDF. It sucks, but it's true: you're selling a production quality tool to picky-ass programmers. I say this as someone who has a copy of that book you mentioned and has implemented type systems, domain specific analyzers, used datalog (Souffle) a lot, etc.

You also need to know your competition, and the story is even worse there. As I've watched security engineering advance over the years -- and I know you aren't specifically talking about security, but go with me here -- one of the only methods that has actually gone from "nascent infosec curiosity" into full-blown large scale usage by major and minor players has been fuzzing, which most people know as just "throw random shit at it until it breaks". That's because it's often easy to integrate, has few visible thorns in practice, has a surprisingly high signal-to-noise ratio, and can be performed even with duct tape and glue on an existing codebase. It can be done in any language. It often delivers positive results immediately in the short term and continuously over time. That's actually what your userbase considers "easy to implement", not "learn datalog and abstract algebra to understand and integrate domain specific static analyzers into your build system." Is it powerful? Yes, and I like solutions like CodeQL or MIRAI (for Rust). Do they have long term benefits? I think so. Is it easy or at least "not that hard"? I'm not immediately convinced.
