I didn't mean to say that the tech necessarily will let you down, just that the hype is a common phenomenon, even when there are already viable applications. AI hype cycle is peaking, and I have no doubt that disruptive tech comes forth from it after it subsides.
Occams razor suggests that if the trend were kicked off by wildly profitable companies that have previously been fined for wage fixing then the cost of capital might not be the whole story.

It is (was) great! Even for as trivial as quick web dev demos.
exactly, "Let's annoy people until they don't write anything on the chat anymore". From Wikipedia, the definition of "inclusive language" is: "Inclusive language avoids expressions that are considered to express or imply ideas that are sexist, racist, or otherwise biased, prejudiced, or insulting to any particular group of people and sometimes animals as well." which can be anything, but we all know that it would just be woke.
Very neat - thank you for documenting this, especially the piece about using Avahi to place the HomePods on a different VLAN. This is something I'm planning to do but hadn't looked into yet, so this will save me a lot of effort.

Just out of curiosity, that's the black box in your cabinet balancing on the metal cones?
Yes, long tail is smaller user base.
I'm sorry, I haven't heard of sand tables before; the agent-based sim concept with lots of people standing around a projector is cool; but is there something better about it being projected on a lumpy surface?
I'm honestly surprised they're not profitable. The cloud tax and cost to acquire new customers is just too high I guess.

I definitely didn't write this essay because I was grumpy haha

My wife used to work in food service, and I was surprised when she told me that she preferred it when people asked for the check upfront, because that table suddenly wasn't taking up a concurrent process in her head.

This essay was supposed to be more about politeness than efficiency, but maybe I didn't express that very well :)
Attrition tends to happen with the most qualified individuals leaving for other companies.

Attrition is not targeted or evenly distributed (depending on the goals). This can result in what would later be perceived as being lopsided compared to the layoff cut. For example (and purely made up), if part of the layoff was to cut back on marketing of the self hosted instances, then you would be looking to lay off marketing, and developer evangelists. However, if attrition doesn't hit those roles (because who's going to be leaving in this economy), you can have it take much longer to scale back that headcount. Saying to the developer evangelist "ok, we don't have something for you to do, we're going to switch you back to an entry level developer position with this other set of roles and responsibilities with a corresponding pay cut" isn't something that can be done easily.

I'm not sure what to say. I've used Twitter since 2010 and can't recall ever seeing any of that. The only spam I've seen in the last 1-2 years is when I search for a recent news event and sort by latest. Then there have been nude photos. Unfortunately, search on Twitter has never been any good.

My feed consists of 200 people and _most_ tweets seem to get around 5-20 replies. The closest thing you can come to spam are "fake" accounts that comment on political posts. It became big news a few years ago when it was revealed that the largest political party in Sweden were behind some of them. I don't think there's much you can do besides block them since they are real people with fake accounts. But it's only on political posts so I rarely see them.
We saw some evidence that companies will prefer to work with the original developers for their own product's hosting, but I'll keep working on improving my understanding to the open source ecosystem. Very interesting thoughts.
> I walk/run there every day, but the point is, the routine of doing everything alone (walking, shopping, working, eating) starts grinding on you.

That's a completely different issue from remote vs in-person work. You should learn to be comfortable being alone/by yourself, especially as a man.
American exceptionalism is dead. Persia was once known for their strong pursuit of knowledge and science, it's why the majority of the visible stars in the sky have Arabic names even to this day. Then the region transitioned heavily into religion. That's not an indictment of religion, just that we are watching our own downfall by valuing political beliefs above the actual requirements of any given job. It's probably too late to correct at this point as there will always be people willing to do what is asked of them, to proselytize the desired belief system to the next generation. Our union will just fracture as so many before have been fractured.
The most annoying thing to me is people thinking AI wants things and gets happy and sad. It doesn't have a mamailian or reptilian brain. It just holds a mirror up to humanity generally via matrix math and probability.
Yes, the default listening services were the worst as they were easily exploited; but most users are behind a NAT, and you could still disconnect from the Internet and apply the update first, or disable them. More precisely, it was common in those days for connecting to a network to be one of the last things to do, after already having set up a lot of other things before that.

The fact that some versions of Windows 11 require an Internet connection just to install and go through the initial setup seems like it could be even worse.
Yes, but then you might cut not the 7% you wanted.
It's an amount you can do safely without your employees or shareholders thinking you are a sinking ship, as that's what everyone is doing.

However don't be fooled - it will be 7% repeatedly until things stabilize. People think it's just 7% once. It might be, but this will be repeated if needed.
Strategy only works for so long and for small companies. Then you will have to adjust. Salaries and the employment market are highly dynamic and competitive. No strategy works forever.

"Intelligence" is probably too nebulous a term for what it is we're trying to build. Like "pornography", its hard to rigidly define, but you know it when you see it.

I think "human level intelligence" is an emergent phenomenon arising from a variety of smaller cognitive subsystems working together to solve a problem. It does seem that ChatGPT and similar models have at least partially automated one of the subsystems in this model. Still, it can't reason, doesn't know it's wrong, and can't lie because it doesn't understand what a lie is. So it has a long way to go. But it's still real progress in the sense that it's allowing us to better see the dividing lines between the subsystems that make up general intelligence.

I think that we'll need to build a better systems level model of what general intelligence is and the pieces it's built out of. With a better defined model, we can come up with better tests for each subsystem. These tests will replace the Turing test.
The Evolving Landscape of Online Information
What’s the incentive to build original content sources when that content might be hidden behind an intelligent chatbot?
Yes :) They could be bonded for redundancy or increased bandwidth, or used for different VLANs.
I guess you could parse the sentence in a way that it is correct.

The find by SDO extends a series of interesting space observations started by JWST.

But that would be a somewhat weird point to make, so I would agree, they probably thought the observation was by JWST.
It's for our own good of course!
Is it possible to join those data sources against an existing database like MySQL or SQLServer?
It's not abusing anything. All it's doing is creating a prominent feature on a graph. The roots are designed to handle this kind of traffic, required to do so, and more than capable of doing so. Application developers are not required to use the DNS parsimoniously, and never have been.
What will be your alternative?
Nice, I like it.

Could you consider to publish an open URL, so people can try it without registering?

With me here, typically, first me get to order drinks, after the drinks are served, typically the waiter asks me for pre-course or main meal order. If I know what I want, I order all at once. If not, I order pre-course. While pre-course is being prepared, there's plenty of time to chose what I want. After the pre-course has been served, the order for the main course is done. Yes.

That takes more time, than ordering all at once. But, if I order everything at once, it get prepared nad served quite fast after another, while the first dish still isn't empty.

So that's a Problem! You get urged to swallow your meals as fast as possible. It's good for the restaurant, but not for me and my eating habits.

As I pay for that, I see that as not my problem, but rather a problem of other people.

The time savings last aren't that big. And customers who sit long spend more on drinks..
> Berlin is still paying Euros for his fucking oil and gas.

Realize he is also vehemently losing tanks and people right now and supply of money is critical for this sort of fun. Then try to imagine being putin or one of his friends and spending those euros anywhere without the magic of crypto dark market. Good luck!

Those guys are not above any working way of financing their activities, especially now that the west is suddenly less easy to transact with, and they have perfectly crypto savvy people working for them.

For the record, the "zlato" in Bitzlato (one of the largest players at localbitcoins) is Russian for "gold", and the guy running it was Russian operating from China.

I'm sorry if it sounds dark and shatters your dreams of legally unencumbered entrepreneurship but it's just the way it is.

pay through unspecified transition period, but also 4 months salary PLUS 6 months health insurance?

that is such a nice severance package that I almost wish I worked there and was getting laid off!

But I have been thinking "the job market is still ok", but am starting to doubt that, it seems like it really is going to be a lot harder to get a job.
GoDaddy was the first software engineering job I worked for. I had interned there too. It's understandable that the external perception of the company is bad (and even sexist), but internally GoDaddy was a great place to work.

They're always a major sponsor of Grace Hopper. They were adamant about hiring women. They made my internship so much fun, and I am still friends with many of my co-interns from that summer. Of the places I worked for, GoDaddy was the only one I would say had a "family" like quality.

> Yet there are companies out there rejecting me for job descriptions which are only 50% of my skill set because I couldn’t code this obscure hard algorithms problem in 45 mins.

Ohhhh, screw that.

Maybe I've just been lucky in my career, but outside of the early days I have only had one interview that involved a white-board or some form of timed test. I didn't express this to my interviewers, but I felt like part of a circus -- hey, let's see the candidate do "code tricks." And they were dumb exercises, they asked me to sort an array of numbers using a "bubble sort." Bubble sort. My brain went right to "wait, this isn't an actual example of something I'm going to be expected to do, is it?" It was a simple web back-end in C#/Razor. And you've given me a pen and paper. Granted, I thought back to my High School Pascal I class and "i" and "j"'d my way through OCD sorting.

It's "programming tricks" because we write software using a set of tools day-to-day in order to be productive/effective. If I can write software without those tools, cool, but will I be better with them and will I ever work without them in the real world? No. So it's the old "hit the apple off that person's head using this bow/arrow", except "do it blind-folded" (oooh, aaah).

In my younger days, I hated writing code with someone looking over my shoulder and my abilities to write good code would decrease dramatically if I felt like I was being judged with every keystroke.
Still better than reddit redesign
in my case being built in rust is a benefit. elixir is my daily driver and rust fills a niche for me (all the domains where elixir isn't great) and they pair well together thanks to rustler.

A project being written in rust communicates to me that if I ever wanted to join the community and start submitting patches, I could. I have little interest in devoting the next 10-15 years "mastering" c++ but I'm happy to dig into rust.
How will it do that?

One of major problems of modern computer-based work is that there are too many people already in those roles, doing work that isn't needed. Case in point: the culling of tens of thousands of software engineers, people who would consider themselves to be doing 'bullshit jobs'.
That's not my blog, I just thought the example to be relevant.

> I was thinking more like:

That example is straight up from any of those "programming is not bound by typing speed" essays of yore.

> people have such an emotional reaction to an optional, low-key, passive, easily-ignored tool that sometimes saves a bunch of typing.

Maybe because it's not generally advertised by proponents as "an optional, low-key, passive, easily-ignored tool that sometimes saves a bunch of typing"? Just look at the rest of the thread, it's pronounced as a game-changer in productivity.
Not sure, from memory one issue is my passport is from a different country than where I live. Several sites just could no handle this. Or maybe I just have a weird face :)

I don’t have ADHD as far as I’m aware, but in the office noise canceling headphones mostly worked with the caveat that everybody in eyeshot was sitting for the most part. Sometimes when there’d be a flurry of movement for some reason or another with people ping ponging between desks and such my focus would be torpedoed and I’d have to resign myself to being a fourth or fifth as effective as normal until people settled in again.
It's more a way to shame the system, where dying at home costs so much.
I don't have pictures but I can describe it.

* Broadband 600/60Mb/s with seamless failover to 5G (varying speeds)

* Netgate 6100 router with VPN client, VPN server, site to site VPN configured, traffic shaping to reduce bufferbloat, uplink failover, etc.

* 4 Cisco SG 250-8 switches sprinkled throughout the flat. One acting as my core switch.

* QNap with 2 4TB drives in mirror for backups

* A HDD USB station with a stack of 4TB HDDs for backups. Backups are delivered to qnap at various times and then from time to time I make a complete copy to a drive which is put in a rotation. I keep three full copies of the data at any time and at least one of them is off-site with my family. When I visit my family I take the latest backup and replace the drive that is in their custody.

* a small, passively cooled server with 2TB fast SSD, 128GB ECC RAM, Ryzen 5 CPU, Asrock PRO X570D4U-2L2T. Hosts proxmox where I keep about a dozen VMs for various things, Ubiquiti management panel, NVR, dns filter, development tools, minecraft servers, jump box, etc....

* a 10 year old Thinkpad T440s running always on serving as my emergency server and a development environment.

* 4 Ubiquiti WiFi 6 access points -- before you jump in saying this is overkill, I live in a large flat in a dense urban area with about half a thousand 2.4GHz APs and 50 5GHz ones interfering with my WiFi setup. Most people and even network providers are clueless and set up their devices to max power as if it was going to help them -- it only makes things worse. I have 4 APs with reduced power so that anywhere you are at my flat you are always close to one of APs and you roam between them seamlessly as you move.

* Multiple VLANS and WiFi networks

* a VLAN + WLAN for my family for their regular devices to access the Internet and some defined services within network but otherwise disallowed to contact anything else

* a VLAN + WLAN for IOT, legacy devices, devices I don't trust or devices that only support old protocols and would deteriorate WLAN performance (printers, a chinese projector, etc.) This VLAN does not have Internet access (so that devices can't phone home), don't have access to any other device in the network, don't have access to other networks and can only be reached with defined firewall rules.

* a VLAN + WLAN for my work -- this is dedicated for my work laptop, my phone, my electronics lab (oscilloscope, multimeter, programmable PSU/load, etc.)

* a VLAN + WLAN for guests

* a management VLAN -- any network devices, servers, QNAP etc. are only available through this separated VLAN which has very strict access through a jump box. Also does not have direct internet access so the devices can't phone somewhere else (but I have a proxy for software updates, etc.)

* a service VLAN -- where my services are available internally (for example QNAP interface, apps running in VMs, etc.) Some of them have rules to be accessed from other networks

* a DMZ VLAN -- I expose some services to the world, DMZ serves to provide one more hurdle for any attacker

Is "Trung Nguyen" the same company as "Trung Nguyen Legend"? Dropped by their cafe in Hanoi (old quarter) and loved the no. 5 blend (at least I think that's what I got — memory is fuzzy).

Extremely fragrant Torrefacto-style roasting. Chocolate, butter, caramel notes. I had it black there — no condensed milk or sugar — and bought a bag to brew in the Aeropress at home, also to drink black.

There is almost no complexity in the cup — it's just a very comforting, full-bodied chocolatey flavour. Enjoyable in its own way.

Legality is different than enforcement, but the two aren't totally separate.

For example, it's de facto not illegal to drive 5mph over the speed limit on the highway. No police officer will pull you over for that unless they have some other prior reason. So in that sense, lack of enforcement has made the practice legal.

There are only so many numbers between 1 and 10 where the cut from the layoff is deep enough to have an effect and not too much. Going above 10 says very different things.
At this point it's beginning to look like tech companies are doing this because it's the trendy thing to do, along with inserting a few words about AI in their websites and pitch decks.

I still think biology is on a collision course with DEI. At the core of DEI there is the belief that if there is any discrepency in outcome between two groups (whichever way you cut the population), it is the result of discriminations and power struggles. There is a remote possibly that our genes have zero influence on our brain and behaviour, but I wouldn't bet on that. And that is an unacceptable outcome to DEI.
Yes, this! Trigger.dev lives in your code, we offer a visual flow builder, more like Zapier.
Ultimately the only thing really regulating these labor markets are competitive forces. If all the competitors are cutting their labor costs, you have reduced risk of your labor jumping ship, less mobility, etc. and have opportunity to cut costs as well. You have an opportunity to reduce costs and increase profit and revenue at the same time.

It may also be the case that this is an actual correction trend in the market to overhiring. Whether or not that's the case or the target is more of the former is ambiguous to any outsiders so this will be the explanation given because it puts things in a more positive light than the strategic "we have a golden opportunity to cut labor costs so let's do it."
If you don't put in an honest effort to give it a shot, you will remain forever confused why people find tech like this useful for some use cases and you don't.
What about a co-working space?
The intention of the "artificial" in "AI" is not that particular meaning of "artificial", but the one for "constructed, man-made"—see meaning #1 in the Wiktionary definition[0]; the one you are using is #2.

It is often frustrating that English has words with such different (but clearly related) definitions, as it can make it far too easy to end up talking past each other.

I'm admittedly not at all familiar with typeorm (not really great at Node either for that matter), but a few questions:

What kind of testing have you done on app/DB performance under heavy load?

Why are you indexing nearly the same thing thing twice in the AppConnection table? [0]

What kind of column is your pkey, as defined in BaseEntity? [1] It says String, but AFAIK that's not a Postgres type.
