I think this is a super stealth thing, that still has a "but WeBC0mp0n3nts Fa!l3d!" vibe from the usual high-assumption/highly-self-certain camps, but in fact has this quiet underbelly of practitioners who have sat down & worked with it & found it be more than adequate, with a lot of advantage.

There's two social factors I want to comment on about this.

Its weird, the webdev world has lost... culture. We had a time when http://ajaxian.com and other sites kept us super socially aware of what was happening & everyone was sharing & no one knew. We were all watching, learning, together. But now Everyone Is A React Developer (EIARD) and there are normative in-reach-solutions & there's much fewer gathering places & communities to exchange views & possibilities across.

I also think there's an incredibly short-sighted long-dwelling view that anything that doesn't take over & dominate in 5 years is toast. Everyone wants standards to show up & immediately succeed, but actual adoptions is incredibly laborious & slow, and that's just something we have never ever learned. We looked at the colossal growth of startups across the 2010's & let their success determine how much we believe in the techs they were using, and any tech that didn't have gangbusters success for launching billions dollar enterprises was ignored.

And to be fair, Web Components is both an amazing shift, but it's just a start. It has a huge growing-in period, which hopefully never really ends, unlike other technologies which have more direct fit & purpose: it's kind of obvious what area WebMIDI is generally for, it's kind of clear how CSS Containers get used. Web Components is a return to the best aspect of the web; a mechanism & hinge for low-level extensibility, while still having interoperability. Figuring how what new frameworks & libraries that can rise atop this make sense is huge long slow work, with a lot of futzing & casting about. That's ok. We haven't been used to slow builds like this, but we have highly undervalued the potential here. Github's Catalyst, and Youtube's own WebComponents work are both incredible testaments to how well things can work.

Good job!
> So if you can do carbon capture for less than $150/tCO2 it would make more sense to sell the fuel and capture more carbon.

How does this math work?

If it's $149 to recapture, who's paying for this $149? Is the person buying $150 worth of fuel now paying for it also, at ($150 + recapture cost)/gallon?

Honestly though, with no theory of mind or consciousness you have no way to assert in either direction.

To borrow the religion analogy, there's the opposite fallacy of claiming the negative case "I know for a fact God isn't real", by stating you know what these kinds of information processing systems are doing fundamentally cannot yield intelligence or some kind of consciousness.
I think you’re overestimating the average complexity of software. Low-medium skills folks can probably build functional clones to 90%+ of the software people use daily. They could build a new product of similar complexity. Most enterprise software is a UI for CRUD operations. I doubt they’ll be developing firmware for space X or any type of advanced/mission critical systems. But there’s a lot of room to operate.

I say this as someone that regularly employs <$15/hr freelance talent. You have to manage them differently but they can produce just the same on the majority of tasks I need of them.
He can change his middle name again. It's not like the government will require him to produce the private key to do so
You can also achieve similar goals in dnsmasq via --localise-queries and --dynamic-host. It's a bit clunky but not complicated.
>...if you’re truly on $3k/month because you are unable to work, you have a serious disability.

They're most likely talking about Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). The amount is completely unrelated to the severity of a person's disability.

The reason is in the name--it's insurance for lost wages. Workers' FICA taxes are the premiums they pay while working, and are based on wages as well. So basically: the more one makes while working, means the more they pay in while working, means the more they lose when disabled, which means the more they get paid by SSDI.
I'm not telling you to go throw axes if that's what you aren't into. I was just honing in on your point that you'd make time for your life after you are older and rich, and how that isn't a great mindset because things can sometimes change dramatically from your expectations. That's all. Again, if you are happy with how you live your life, by all means, its just that your initial comment indicated to me that you were perhaps putting off some happiness and living for a later date that comes with expectations that might not get met. Life is long, if you luck out and live long, but you will learn eventually how temporary life and good health really are.

If you want to do VRF on Linux and don’t have a philosophical objection to systemd, I strongly recommend using systemd-networkd. VRF, wireguard, and many other complicated things are easy to configure out of the box and don’t require extra scripts or custom units.

My home router is a Raspberry Pi running Ubuntu server. VRF, Wireguard, VLANs, bonding, llrp, route advertisement, prefix delegation, dhcp server and leases, all configured only with systemd-networkd.
> My question was whether any programmers actually asked for it, and if so, which ones?

I have to admit, this question sounds very strange to me.

Corporations don't get work done. People do. Rust has been designed and implemented by programmers.[1] There's countless hours of talks and interviews and many articles and books written on Rust by programmers. They did all that work without being forced by anyone.

> All these restrictions that were in place to create a safer language made Pascal completely unsuited to writing allocators, buffered IO, and other OS internals. ... Maybe there's a lesson there.

Rust lets you do explicit type casting and write `unsafe` blocks in situations where you absolutely need to dereference raw pointers or do pointer arithmetic.[2] It lets you create null pointers or mark pointers as non-null. But not all code needs to do that. In Rust, you can isolate the code that does from the rest that doesn't.

Also: Talk more, in a pointed way. Ask the question: does this make sense? Is this nonsense? Am I making sense? Am I spouting complete bullshit here? You might be surprised how effective of a communicator you become if you tack some variation of that question onto every third or fourth sentence.
10% loss inside your home network is bonkers bad.
It’s unfortunate for many people but the reality is “the job” is often not what it appears to be. Building software in a large org has little to do with writing code and everything to do with maintaining shared understanding of very complex systems among dozens or thousands of people.

Communication is the fundamental problem of doing anything at scale, and lots of valuable things are only valuable at scale.
> War literally means "we are willing to kill and die to win this"

I think you are overly equating the aggressor with the victim. The victim is more "we are willing to kill and die to avoid having <something> forced on us".
> Address stability. If you use the prefix your ISP gives you via DHCPv6-PD or whatever, it might change on you, and then all of your hard-coded configs are wrong.

Right. I've been using my own address space at home for a while now that I've forgot how dumb ISPs can be.

I've got a BGP session on a VPS that's located in the same facility as my ISP (my upstream and by ISP are even peering there, over both, v4 and v6. The only thing missing for me is IXP access, which the VPS provider offers, at €50/month, so in this instance it's not worth paying for, but damn I'd love to give my own ISP the routes to my home network myself), so I'm just running a WireGuard tunnel from that box to my home (mainly because my ISP still doesn't offer any IPv6 whatsoever). This setup actually costs me less than a static IP from my ISP would. They charge €15/month for a static IP. My setup costs me €6/month for the VPS and additional €5/month for the BGP session.

I could even do iBGP between the VPS and my home router over that tunnel, but that's far too hardcore. I think the /56 I've given for my home network will be enough for a couple of lifetimes. After all, it's 256 subnets of /64, and how many VLANs do I need at home? :D

Unfortunately not everyone can do this. :(

> Consider: what is the easiest way to parallelize GCC to a 32 core system?

That's a false dichotomy. If the compiler program was implemented as a library, I would rather create 128 threads that each call compileSourceFile() than spawn 128 subprocesses that do the same thing.

The question you should be asking is: do I need my task to execute in a seperate address space? If yes, spawn a subprocess, otherwise use a thread.
I got into tech without a CS degree and I know a lot of other people who have.

If you had trouble getting your foot in the door, it's probably because of something else.

> Software development is in no way a meritocracy, and companies see us as interchangeable components with very little intrinsic value as SV workers are finding out in droves.

That's just not true. Interchangeable cogs in a machine don't get paid several hundred thousand dollars a year. If you want to see what being interchangeable really looks like, work in the food service industry.

Perhaps the kind of communication needs to be clarified. There is communication with your teammates that gets the actual work done. Then there's communication with "higher ups" or management or the general public where there are opportunities for stealing credit and/or manipulation.
This sort of thing has happened before within a similar genre of literature, but I suppose the body of work (The Famous Five by Enid Blyton) wasn’t popular enough to be amplified by the two opposing rage machines.

It’s been kind of wild watching talking points get disseminated in real time on this one. A few days ago, most Twitter threads on the topic were nearly universal in expressing at least mild disapproval. If you look today (and not just on Twitter, this HN thread itself has several repeated examples), you’ll see a ton of reply guys snarkily parroting the same handful of snappy-but-vapid “gotchas” that don’t lend themselves to a rebuttal without going full “mucho texto”.

And thus the most commonly visible pushback is a useless-but-inflammatory reactionary screed about how “the Wokes are changing history to push a Marxist agenda”.

I’ve noticed a similar pattern with other recent events like the Ohio train derailment where every thread devolves into multiple people posting the same 2-3 obvious canned talking points and pointing fingers everywhere except at the company responsible or even the lack of comment/blame shifting by virtually all national leaders on both sides of the aisle.

The sheer speed at which propaganda is being disseminated, digested, and recited absolutely everywhere is leading to situations where a toxic mushroom cloud of smoke can hover over the heartland while GOP Governors and Dem Transportation Secretaries can declare “eh it’s no big deal”, the rail company can cut $25 checks to the affected while doubling train engineer workloads, and yet somehow they’ll all get away with it and the populace will blame The Other Team. Absolute dysfunction.

I have had this happen with Docker compose too in a much less complicated setup.

When you add a network, it gives you a network. It allocates a pretty big address space each time, and eventually it'll run out of 172.16.0.0/12 space and move on to 192.168.0.0/16 networks.

Why can I get to this from the guest network but not the client network? Oh...

It sucks, but I manually set networks now. And keep track of them.
Photosynthesis covers the vast majority of land and ocean available on Earth while solar panels cover far less. So in a way, photosynthesis is more efficient - in a scalable way.
It's generally hard to do anything with vested RSUs in a non-public company. For one, they often require time and a liquidity event in order to vest; but even if they were vested into shares, it's hard to sell non-public shares.

There's a huge amount of aggro pissy shitthrowing that Chrome is facilitating automation in these threads. Bollocks.

You know what? The Internet Is For End Users [1]. If we're going to cite an RFC, it should be RFC 8890. Not having a better headless Chrome would be a violation of the most basic principles of the internet.

There are some cases where automation can get out of hand, but blocking these efforts should not come at user expense. So says the RFC8890, and a general collective belief/hum-in-the-room. The availability of a good browser like Chrome helping should not be an issue, given how many other ways bad players have to go too far & cause harm to sites. The people who have to deal with this are not the priority & this doesn't radically change their troubles; this radically helps end users wishing to exercise agency though.

In most cases being able to script & automate a site is a completely primitive user-agency, of no special regard. Headless Chrome being a somewhat tolerable way of doing that scripting is 100% morale, correct. It greatly assists us in fulfilling a primary & clear overarching purpose of the internet: to be for end users.

I wish I could say I cannot believe the complaining & whinining & snivelling, the pretentious-nonsense/acting-offended that Chrome would dare help make good automation. I wish I could say I don't think this crowd recognizes nor comprehends the basic purpose of the internet, but again, I think I know better; I suspect they do but their protests are disingenous, that they have allied their hearts with darker forces, against the user.

And phone calls.. not in my contacts? To voicemail with you!

Anyways, thinking more about the topic at hand, things like ChatGPT are just pushing us further towards a world of nepotism and social back-channel connections. Like in the modern art world where it isn't about talent, it's about who you are and who you know. AI means it's not about what you can write or create, it will be about your personal connections. IMO this is a bad thing for society as it leads to entrenched stratification and eventual ossification.
How about "management is motivated by money and success, which for them is strongly correlated to the performance of the company"? But, no, for some reason many HN posters prefer the "management wishes to exercise petty authority over us" reason.

It's not a matter of training, it's a matter of doctrine. American police training is a lot more gun-oriented than foreign police training because Americans own more guns. Also, the laws dictating when it is legal to use deadly force are different.

You have to account for the differences in the freedom vs. safety trade-off.
The reward for finishing your work is usually more work. You need to set some boundaries/not "always be on-call" for issues. If you are always on-call your nervous-system can never relax because every phone call is a threat to normal recovery.
We need more of this philosophy today.
I got my first degree in 2009. Recently started again. Took a biology test today and was pleasantly surprised how non-recital it was.

It focused on a planned development (hotels, grocery stores, etc) in a part of town that everybody in the class is quite familiar with and asked us to apply concepts from lecture to predict the impact to a given set of species.

It was masterful. Hit all the points, anchored in our everyday lives, applied in a way that rote memorization just wouldn't help with. I had a moment like: WTF I've lived here my whole life and never seen a wild ferret. Searched it after the test and turns out they're native and critically endangered.

Just saying: the good ones are out there.

We've added no density? The population of the city went from 500k to 4 million since that sign went up. Koreatown has over 50 thousand people living per square mile.

You're now well past the original proposal of a Raspberry Pi. And people who need different input devices for ergonomic reasons (laptops keyboards are not a good fit for many people) are going to push back hard.

The $1 profit goes towards paying for capturing carbon. Every 150 barrels of captured fuel you sell, you make $75 profit you could spend on either not selling a barrel, or some more efficient way of reducing our climate impact like maybe buying a solar panel or sponsoring a windmill.

Or what the sibling suggests, you keep the money as profit / funds for growing the business so you displace traditional oil and you prevent the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere that way.

The size of the monthly pay isn’t what is significant - having any nonzero amount is. The SSDI acceptance rate is lucky to hit 30%, typically takes multiple hearings/appeals to get a payout, and can be denied if the government can demonstrate the potential for you to work outside the field you were employed in. If you receive anything from it, it is prima facie evidence of a serious disability.

So to my point, this isn’t a story about a bad programmer, it’s a story about a person who is truly so disabled that they can’t program.
