The lack of them is probably more harmful than the content is helpful. But I do think they move readers who are on the fence about what to buy. It takes a long time investment to learn whether a novel is any good, so social proof is, unfortunately, a pretty big influence.

Basically Python team sat down to consider how they can make their deployment setup worse, and they came up with the idea to split packaging, dependency management, virtual environments/isolation, and Python version management to each need a different too, and then had different random projects make several tries at of each tool, all at more or less equivalent popularity...
Your first sentence is selection bias. Of course, successful people look like they "just have it". Once you have succeeded, convincing investors to fund another opportunity is far easier. The real question is how to succeed in the first place.

Having the right connections helps in getting funding. If you went to Stanford, your network would have many connections that are able to invest 5M. If you are raised in the slums, you are far less likely to have these connections, regardless of your genetic background or personality.
i do hope this isn't more than a couple per year, worldwide. I don't have the numbers, but my fear is the "trend" effect. The fact that this issue is becoming widely discussed can easily influence teenagers into believing this is the solution to their problem (that's what teenagers do : they get easily influenced).
It is, you're just not trying hard enough or you're using the official drivers that are software limiting it.
You can never know for sure. I only regretted quitting my first major job many years later after life had illustrated why it would've been better to stay. You just have to trust your instincts or take a leap of faith. Good luck.
This is an excellent “I didn’t know you could do that… but why couldn’t you?” idea. Surely some people are under work contracts that wouldn’t allow it, but otherwise it’s a super interesting tactic.
Every time I changed jobs I was hesitant. Every time it was the right move. There were many jobs I should have left sooner.

I can measure my blood sugar and my blood pressure quite simply and that is what ensures me the medication I take is working.
My neighbor does that with stray cat groups, around here. It's quite effective (and humane).

Of course, that site has lots of heart-wrenching pictures of puppies.

If anyone has seen the new German-language All Quiet On the Western Front (richly deserving of all the accolades, IMNSHO), the initial scene is downright heartbreaking (not like the rest of the movie is any more upbeat, but that scene is the one that sticks).

The New 3DS also did eye tracking, which is why I said it did.
Yes, this is the emperor's new clothes of MWI, and it doesn't take any specialist knowledge to see it. Quantum mechanical theories produce probabilities for things happening. We can conduct repeated experiments and verify those probabilities against the results. If every outcome actually happens, there is no longer any place for those probabilities. It is meaningless to talk about the relative probabilities of events A and B happening if both A and B actually happen, deterministically.

These probabilities aren't just numbers produced by the theory, they are the predictive content of the theory, the very thing we're supposed to be interpreting, and MWI has no place for them.

The way this problem is often discussed is to talk about "recovering the Born probabilities", which frames the problem wrongly. It makes it sound like the problem is that MWI merely isn't producing some numbers we like. MWI proponents respond to this by going through absurd contortions involving things like decision theory as a way of causing the desired numbers to pop out of a calculation. But the problem isn't "recovering the probabilities". The problem isn't finding some way of performing a calculation that results in these particular numbers. The problem is that these probabilities have no physical meaning in MWI, and it's a catastrophic problem because those probabilities have a very real meaning in the actual world as we observe it.

It really is as simple as "how can all the things happen at once when we know some of the things are more likely than others?" And, like "why is the emperor naked?" it's a question that can literally be asked by a child.

An "interpretation" that renders the core predictive content of the theory meaningless is a bad interpretation and a waste of everyone's time.

The terminology of signals (and slots) has been used in Qt [0] since the 1990s I believe.

Still, it is unfortunate that the article begins with “Let's start with an extremely broad definition” (of signals), then continues with what sounds like signals in general, mentioning React only as an example, but then turns out wanting to only talk about signals in the particular reactive UI sense common in web development, without properly introducing that narrowing of focus.

I guess that focus can be expected from a blog on a site about a TypeScript signals library, but from the way the first few paragraphs are written, it’s certainly confusing when reading the article without further context, coming from HN.

> I still believe that most law enforcement officers want to do the right thing

It's been legally determined that "the right thing" is 1. protection of property 2. protection of the status quo (i.e. the rule of law regardless of what the law is) 3. does not include the safeguarding of the welfare of people (see DeShaney v Winnebago and its impacts).

You say "some bad apples" - the tree was selectively bred to make anemic, putrid fruit.
That's so funny to hear! For me there is, if anything, more conversation when I'm alone.
> This doesnt negate the fact that some people are exponentially better at business than others. Its the same in math, chess, basketball, football, writing, and every other human endeavor

Citing chess directly contradicts your thesis about "innate talent".

In chess, the Polgar sisters are proof that training is the key and not genetics. The increasing existence of younger and younger chess grandmasters distributed around the world also shows that it's more about training than "innate talent".

Football and basketball do have a "innate talent" component--at the highest levels the competitors are genetic freaks.

However, any human endeavor not relying on pure physicality does not have "innate talent" limitations. "Talent" is almost always correlated to "early training" and "hard work".

I’ve been using JLCPCB for the last few years and they’ve noticeably stepped up in quality since the single 2018 board that was displayed here. Nothing against Elecrow, they make fantastic boards, too. I’m just kind of impressed that I can have a super high quality board in under a week from a few fab houses now, usually for under $60 shipped. I haven’t seriously used those standard white breadboards for years now.

If you run an SSH client process to connect to an SSH server, the resulting SSH session will not inherit the environment from the parent process of the client by default. Although not the same, connecting to a tmux server is more similar to that than starting a regular child shell.

this is a funny quip, and it is completely recognizable as a quip.

Feeling the need to defend entrepreneurs against this quip is a defect in you. Feeling the need to analyze what %age of the time this quip would need to be true in order for it to be acceptable marks you as a complete nerd who misses the forest for the trees. Wanting to burden this quip with extra words so as to make it quantifiably good advice is misunderstanding what makes something funny.

Not quite. I don't think my setup is very special, so, I describe it in more detail:

My company provides me with the laptop, VPN connection to the office network, which, in turn, connects to our (tiny) datacenter, where actual work happens (i.e. compilation, CI, testing, all happen there).

Sometimes I work from the office, other times from home.

The datacenter has several "jump" servers having distinct roles, there is a server that lets you connect to our OpenStack cluster, another has some resources to run a bunch of unrelated VMs in KVM, yet another one is the storage for all kinds of artifacts, s.a. Linux packages, Linux distro images, Docker images for development and testing, and then there's CI cluster.

So, my typical setup is like this: I have an ansi-term buffer per jump server. The jump servers are running my tmux session. So, every time I have to move my laptop to a different network (eg. going home from office), I reconnect to the jump servers and to the tmux session they were running so that I can pick up from where I left off before disconnecting from office VPN.

If TRAMP could have a persistent session, maybe, I'd not use tmux (I don't like that I have different commands for managing buffer appearance and clipboard). On the other hand, tmux is more universally used (at least in my company), so that sometimes I can simply ask a colleague to connect to my session, if they need to investigate some strange situation (only a handful of people are using Emacs, but almost everyone would be able to use tmux at where I work).

That's what people thought about competitors to Twitter.

Turns out such platforms mostly attract Nazis.

Sure, I would love it if there were social media platforms and LLMs free of moderation or censorship, but that's not the world we live in.

That's the paradox of intolerance.

I know HN and much of the tech industry believes the trade off for free speech is worth it, but that's because they're not the ones who bear the brunt of the consequences. Someone somewhere is feeling the compromises.
The noise cancelling feature might be emitting ultrasonic sound, which might be causing damage. I've had tinnitus for a few decades, but I don't blame my airpods and it doesn't seem to be getting worse. (I had a hearing test a few years ago and my results were "perfect" despite the constant ringing.)
I’ve never regretted quitting, but at the same time I can look back and see times when I moved from better teams to worse teams. I’ve also moved from worse to better.

I think it’s important for your career growth to get experience with different teams, different products, and different verticals. It’s always a gamble, but it’s also one that makes you stronger every time.
If you thought you were reloading the dev environment database, and found out you just reloaded your production database, you would be surprised too. And you would probably wonder why after setting the dev variables, the tmux shell didn't have them.

Not visibly, but also didn't really get what that now means?

> Genome-wide profiles from Chernobyl, purebred and free-breeding dogs, worldwide reveal that the individuals from the power plant and Chernobyl City are genetically distinct, with the former displaying increased intrapopulation genetic similarity and differentiation. Analysis of shared ancestral genome segments highlights differences in the extent and timing of western breed introgression. Kinship analysis reveals 15 families, with the largest spanning all collection sites within the radioactive exclusion zone, reflecting migration of dogs between the power plant and Chernobyl City.

Does that now mean they maybe gained/lost something or hardened, or just that tribes establlished themselves there?
>You guys talk to yourselves when you're alone?

All the time.

>When I'm alone I kind of like... stop existing?

That sounds horrible and alien to me. I definitely exist, and talking to myself articulates and reifies my own thoughts. It's me helping myself think something through or overcome something, emotionally.

If anything, there's "less of me" when I'm talking to someone else since then it's like I'm operating in a relationship-appropriate subset of my true self with them.

>Somebody help me out here... please give me an example of how you talk to yourself when you are alone? What is that like? You have an actual dialogue with another entity that is also you? It's very hard for me to wrap my head around.

I don't imagine a second self that I'm talking to and who's talking back. I'm one entity, and I can just be vocalizing thoughts. "Ok, so this code needs to do X..." Or, if I see an HN thread about how people can't get laid and a commenter is talking about low value women, "Haha, they ARE low value -- how many of them can even install Arch Linux? Granted, that's not because they're dumb; it's probably societal pressures stacked against their ever being exposed to things that would predispose them to install Arch. That's good. I think I'll write that and contribute productively to this awesome thread that I can obviously relate to which is why I'm alone right now and able to vocalize these thoughts without it being weird."

Often, it's also motivational. "Ok, dude. I need to take out the trash. What can I do to get me to take out this trash? What's a good reward? Let's make a deal. With myself. Right now. Because I need a reward to carry out basic functions like taking out the god damn trash." And that helps me come to an accord with myself about the trash. The act of verbalizing it makes the thoughts way more powerful. A silent internal monologue would be way less rousing. I can just sit there, in silence, looking at the trash, thinking that, but my mind might just disinterestedly drift into distraction.

I read once that Japanese subway workers physically gesture and speak out loud (to themselves) things they're about to do and that this minimizes their rate of mistakes. I think it works similarly to that.
Word-processor idiot (Japanese expression)
while Mao's era was comically brutal and took a wrecking ball to economic development it also unified the country (China's foremost problem throughout thousands of years of history), life expectancy jumped by 30(!) years, and the country obtained universal literacy. Today in India a quarter of the population is still illiterate.

The evaluation of Mao's legacy seems somewhat emotional, short-sighted and ahistorical given that modern state formation, for example in Europe, was almost always preceded by catastrophic violence.

And of course the rise of China in the following decades invalidates the claim that China 'declined terminally', unless we're literally inverting the meaning of the word 'terminal'.

At one of my previous jobs, I did a project on employee retention. Our goal was to identify valuable employees who were most likely to leave. The results were surprising at first. The top two factors leading to an employee moving to a new job were: high performance review and high increase in compensation (raise and bonus). On reflection, we realized that we just reaffirmed their market value, so they could negotiate their next salary starting from the new base with us.

Bottom line, whether you're happy or not with your job, you should probably move.
Well depends on what terminal decline means. GP added the caveat of regime change. You can't be right for X years and then wrong thereafter, that just meant you were incorrect that there was terminal decline.
Where you're in who knows what timezone? Presumably want to actually spend time in the places you're visiting? Probably have somewhat sporadic Internet (how is Starlink in Antarctica?). To say nothing of the HR/payroll, "Yeah I'll be working somewhere in the world."

I imagine you can get off with it if you're some sort of independent freelancer/consultant who doesn't need to coordinate much. But I doubt any HR department would touch you. I sure wouldn't. Sounds like way more potential for problems than I would want to deal with. Hard pass.
Remote Attestation (DHA) is enabled by default with Microsoft's mobile device management product (Intune), so it's likely rolled out to a good number of enterprise customers. Not sure how many use DHA for access control though, and Intune doesn't support servers.
One thing I love about the JVM is that the tooling can be used in production if necessary- generating thread dumps, JFR recordings, monitoring heap usage, etc., all of this is invaluable when diagnosing problems.
You can't really know. Even other people's anecdotes don't mean much, because everybody has different things that make them happy or unhappy. The only way to really learn how things are is to venture out and see for yourself!

I was miserable at my first software job. I liked the people I worked with, the company was small/casual, I thought I had it pretty good. But underneath I was deeply unhappy. So I saved up some money, quit, and tried freelancing for a few months. Parts of that were great, I learned things, but overall it wasn't for me. So then I went back and looked for a new full-time job. That one ended up being the best job I've had, and really showed me how much I can love my work in the right circumstances.

None of that would have happened if I'd just stayed and gritted my teeth

I would ask yourself: are you really happy? If so, great! But if part of you is unhappy or even just curious, go see what else is out there! There's very little risk if you wait to quit until you've found a job, especially if you're young and without dependents. Don't assume what you've got is the best you can hope for. Take an abundance mindset, and go learn about yourself and your field! You can't predict what will happen, you just have to go out and see
Consider that luck starts at birth.
The genes you get, the health, the level of energy, stubbornness, personality, who you meet in life, etc .. these are all dice rolls.

It does take skill to build something, but having the ability to learn that skill is a 'chance', which is in the realm of luck.

Neither being lucky nor skilled is enough for success, it's the combination of both.
And here I leave 'success' as loosely defined.

You can't get lucky at the lottery unless you participate in it.

Skill is due to luck and subsequent luck in some area is due to skill.

I just mentioned above - luck comes first, skill is the ability to get lucky at something.
I've bootstrapped successfully three times, and have seen it from the other side.

Some people just don't get it. They have ideas that are so bad someone who "gets it" wouldn't even conceive of it as a possibility - the way that someone with Asperger's does unimaginably dumb things in social situations.

Unlike Asperger's, though, people that think this way aren't a tiny minority with a diagnosed disorder but ~70% of the population.
>The Chinese state is usually levelheaded; but every so often it succumbs to a manic episode, in which it grips the population, not relenting until it has shaken them out of their pots for backyard steel furnaces, out of their schools for class struggle, or out of their minds for dynamic zero clearing.

What happened here isn't a case of the government going insane. What happened here is the case of the government making a hypothesis and then being completely wrong about the hypothesis.

China isn't the only country that has been wrong. Parts of the US was definitely wrong about the pandemic in the initial stages and they suffered for it as a result.

If omnicron turned out to be as lethal as ebola or equivalent than China took the right action. That is really all there is too it. They took appropriate action for a coming disaster and they turned out to be wrong about the disaster.

The interesting thing here is not the fact that China was wrong. The interesting thing is that if China was right, then China is literally the only first world country with the capability to execute these drastic measures at a massive scale. From these massive lock downs to the creation of hospitals to deal with the fallout in mere weeks... illustrates the true controversies between authoritarian and democratic governments.

As a US citizen I grew up indoctrinated on freedom and democracy. But the truth is actually not so black and white. Either way I know which government I'd rather be under if a zombie outbreak broke out.
