Minuscule side note: a lot of competent jerk are just immature and fearful young dudes who fall into the "people can respect, accept (maybe even love) me if I'm infallible on that one thing". I was like that, and recently I ran into 20yos who had the exact same psychology.

I don't think it is. I ran into the same pitfall. Instead of taking String and passing around &str, I did .clone() everywhere. Kind of gross? The better advice I think is "lean on passing around borrowed parameters as much as possible, otherwise you're going to run into Copy+Clone hell. I would be curious to learn from somebody "even better" at Rust if that is bad advice.

That and, I just wrap everything "hard" in some combination of lazy_static / Arc+Mutex.

There's also been a corresponding dramatic drop in the number of teens who have had any sort of job. Not many things are as fulfilling as doing a job and getting paid for it.

I remember when I realized I was making enough money that I could pay all my bills and no longer needed anything from my dad. It felt really good. For me that was the dividing line between being a child and an adult.

Spokesperson Rachel Cohen told Newsweek that the provisions only apply when someone is "engaged in 'sabotage or subversion' of communications technology in the U.S., causing 'catastrophic effects' on U.S. critical infrastructure, or 'interfering in, or altering the result' of a federal election in order for criminal penalties to apply."

We need to move past the "TikTok = people dancing" stage of discussion.

TikTok has expanded to be the dominant short form video platform for every interest, niche, and micro niche you can imagine that exists, and even ones you can't imagine.

Please anyone reading this comment replace "TikTok = people dancing" with "TikTok = feed + discovery for short form video tailored to your specific interests no matter how niche". Yes this includes programming, science, education, dancing, gaming, cooking, acrobatics, painting, arguing, politics, news, weather, etc. basically anything you can imagine that isn't against their content policies.
In this case, they were great maintaining stuff too. They remained available to dip into that work whenever it helped.

But as a rule, it would not have been challenging enough to keep them engaged for long. And it would have been a waste of their talents for themselves and the organization.

It wouldn't just have wasted their time directly, but wasted the opportunity for less (but still A-grade) developers from diving into a new area and maximizing its value. There was still lots of creative work to be done. These were not trivial new areas.
Yes. Qt as a framework comes with a built-in declarative markup language called QML (a superset of ECMAScript). Full IDE support for QML including debugging/profiling and also a visual design/editing mode are unique to Qt Creator.

You can use Qt Creator while ignoring or perhaps even without realizing this is there (since also many, though increasingly fewer, Qt apps are written in pure C++ without any QML use), but if you do use Qt, it's of course a large potential value add.
> They're both C++ though.

I’d argue that Qt API is pre-C++98, ie. pre std template library. Qt uses its own classes (vector, string, etc) instead of std template library. Even the MOC can be eliminated with the STL. Its an ancient API which is separate from modern post C++11. They’ve tried adding some STL and C++11 concepts, but they have millions of lines of legacy code to support, so its just more layers and bloat.
I think this is right, and I even think that some of what is often complained about in tech interviews is actually about testing for this.

Folks say "give me a take-home assignment I can code on my own" rather than "stressfully whiteboard in a time-crunch in front of people" but I think they often don't understand that this scenario isn't meant to elicit your best code, but to evaluate how you perform in a scenario where everything isn't crisply handed over to you to digest on your own time. Dealing with ambiguity - and asking questions to quickly get to sufficient clarity - is a bit part of that (other elements include literally dealing with dynamic collaboration and a bit of pressure)
I prefer your edit. I found it interesting that ChatGPT can be useful in some cases to neutralize sensational language.
Oh yeah, I remember the "flash super cookie" being a well-known marketing technique.

You know what's really crazy? Before the Snowden revelations in 2013, something like 70% of the web was using http:// (including sites like Amazon and Facebook, IIRC - although checkout pages may have been secured). LetsEncrypt really did a great job of getting the Web past the starting line of basic security.
A floundering corporation has the extractivist mentality. Windows is on its way out so the suits pump it full of cheap bait to catch all the dollars they can, then they move on to other products naturally. It has been a rotten thing for a while, since the executives and investors don't really care about that brand, only about their own portfolios.
It seems like an odd place in Prusa's own product line-up.

I have a Prusa MINI+, which for $450 gets you a great printer. The print volume on the MK3 and now MK4 is just not that much better - 180x180x180 for the MINI, 250x210x220 for the MK4.

If I wanted to upgrade and wanted to stick with Prusa, MK3/MK4 wouldn't come into the picture, I'd go straight to the Prusa XL.

When I wrote that I didn’t really understand the difference in terminology between “effects”/“effect types” (e.g. keyword-based modifiers on functions and types) and “effect handlers” (e.g. typed co-routines).

Many effectful languages have both, so teasing them apart can be confusing. I think I can now more comfortably say that what we’re working on is an extension to Rust’s effect system. This has nothing to do with effect handlers.
I've specifically said they weren't shooting up christian schools in the old days, with no commentary on the (non-zero) number of schools shot in modern days, so I have no idea what you're even arguing against. Your whole comment is a side-step strawman.

Although for the record it doesn't even make sense to say "trans person wasn't shooting school in the old days." Pluralization is an appropriate use of English here.

I am an existentialist: I am perfectly comfortable in a world with no inherent meaning. Sheer existence and action brings me joy. I spend hours of my day tinkering with computers not because of utility, but for the pleasure it brings.

I think if we could elicit this persons thoughts thoroughly we would find "meaning" underlying their perceived joy.

I once worked with a "director of support" who was incompetent but nice. I was a lead developer. The problem was the director of support tried to treat me like level 2 support, they wouldn't do any problem solving, they wouldn't get clear explanation of problems from customers, they wouldn't collect the information we needed. (It was a small startup and "director of support" was a 1 person department with an outsourced assistant.)

But, this person was very, very nice to everyone. It made it harder to see the problem.

How I solved this: I sat down with the person and "explained common sense." I pointed out that, when they were on the phone with the customer, the customer wanted them to solve our problem. They needed to be an expert in our product so that they could do their best to solve the customer's problem on the phone without 4-6 back and forth. I also pointed out that it was very embarrassing for us to ask for "obvious" information after the initial support contact, when they knew that I would ask for "obvious" information. (Like a clear explanation of the problem, or just very basic clarifying questions.)

I then pointed out a very clear example where the director of support really dropped the ball. The customer was trying to share something and was typing in the wrong email address. I simply shouldn't have been involved, because the kind of troubleshooting I was doing was something that the "director of support" should be knowledgeable enough to diagnose, understand, and figure out.

They quit the next day.

> A significant part of the trans movement is a reactionary reinforcement of rigid gender roles

This is an anti-trans talking point and not remotely representative of actual trans communities.

Source: am trans and nonbinary, and I have never heard another trans person complain about me not fitting into specific gender roles. The only people who complain are cis people who think my gender or lack thereof is either a ruse or a mental illness.

I don't think any individual needs to be an assembly expert, but as a community developers still need some people to be assembly experts.

Our systems will rot without people to maintain them, the AI aren't infallable yet.

The greater worry isn't that the general user will let mostly defunct skills rot, it's that we need a path to raise the next generation of experts in these niche skills.

The thing that's "safer" about getting laid off when there are huge rounds throughout many different companies is that it is actually even more accurate to say that it had 0 to do with job performance.

True, obviously companies use layoffs to get rid of low performers, but there are just numerous cases where companies are canning entire divisions, e.g. the Alexa-device-focused teams at Amazon or the metaverse team at Disney.

I highly doubt these most recent layoffs will be treated as much of a black mark.

The problem with Tailwind is that it is write-once code. You don't get any leverage.

Ideally as you write more code you get more reuse and writing future code becomes faster. In theory CSS classes act like this too. As you have more (well designed) CSS classes then writing future CSS becomes easier because you can reuse the past work.

Tailwind breaks this benefit that by encouraging you to write your CSS with glorified styles.
This narrative about trans shooters is disconnected from reality. If you take every trans shooter in the last decade, you get less than 10… out of thousands. For context, last year America has nearly 700 mass shootings. Trans people are actually under represented in mass shootings. Estimates put trans people at up to 1% of the population. We would naively expect 7 shooters last year to be trans, but none were. Saying that the recent shooter is part of a trend of transgender shooters requires outright ignoring all evidence to the contrary.
I'm not sure about too little, too late. All the different brands are the flavor of the month ARM SBCs vs raspberry pi -- Prusa may lag in features, but at least I've heard of them, they have a community, and they're not going to disappear tomorrow like something off ali baba.
Great way to learn your bearings. Then once you get the lay of the land you recognize that's not the way to do things.

It'd be neat if the language had a "beginner mode" flag where the compiler could recommend simple things like abuse of the heap. All you need is a day or two with it, then you can take off the training wheels.

Write one to throw away. Learning is messy and hands-on, not rote and academic.
Just added this to my to read list!
I grew up poor, it has nothing to do with private school to me at all, it's all about struggling parents still convinced their kids to do their best, and put education first as a family group effort.

most of the poor here still is relatively much better off than those from under-developed countries, plus our school provides free lunch, many programs will waive fees if you're economically disadvantaged, etc. It's not as good as those well-off families but it's really good enough for you to do fine in education.

I saw so many economically challenged kids carrying new iphones, dressed well, yet not really into learning at schools, it's certainly not just an economic problem.
My very first job getting paid to write software was writing in scripts in Awk to parse and analyze some software log files, for a faculty software researcher, in, maybe, 1997? i didn't know Awk before, it's just what I inherited. Spent a few hours with the O'Reilly book, and I was like, okay, sure, let's go.

As the stuff we were doing in that project got more complex, at some point someone suggested to teenage me "You might want to look at Perl for this now," and then I moved to that. (with the Camel O'Reilly book, of course!)

Haven't touched either one in years now.

Learning new things can be much more overwhelming for me now, I don't know how much is me vs environment. But I am nostalgic for those days where I'd sit down with a print book, and within hours have a grasp of the fundamentals, or within days feel like I had basic fundamental conceptual understanding of the whole dang thing (not of every possible feature, but of the conceptual framework, the big picture).
Not an inaccurate statement, particularly considering all its flaws, but price isn't my primary concern. Indeed, I am willing to pay a premium for a phone that just does calls and text messages, without using the SIM card as storage and has physical buttons.

I would really like to see that article, because I've personally worked with a few brilliant jerks in my time. I'm still friends with most of them to this day. I guess I'm just good at working with them and ignoring their jerkiness, so I keep ending up working with them?

I'm not sure why the author says this but I've seen quite a few in my day.
It is hard for legacy search engines to resist monetizing millions of interaction with ads. Problem is that unlike current ads in legacy search, which can be suppresed, skipped over or blocked, these really can not as they are part of conversation. And the "feel" of seeing an ad on the street and hearing it in a conversation with someone is totally different.

Users must be thrilled to share a future with advertisers, and can't wait to give them rich insights into their intent, through deep conversational engagement, so that advertisers can better engage with them! [1]

Yeah, if you're on the sidelines in an over-funded environment with little connection to the performance of the business, then you can play tea-party and be nice, and inclusive, and oh so delightful.

But when you've got a critical deadline you need to meet, and some fuckhead decided he was going to slack and cause the rest of us to have to pick up his end of things due to shear caprice, there's going to be strong language thrown around about the situation -- where all patience has already been exhausted weeks ago.

That being the case, the point remains that a dismissive adult is much more likely to get in the way of a teenager from getting a diagnosis than that of another adult. Furthermore, the fact that doctors are more likely to take men seriously than they do women would explain why the increase in diagnoses is so much higher in male adults than in female adults, even though the base rate of women suffering from mental health issues is actually the same as that of men.

Obviously, the part in italics is fiction. It is referring to the alternate world I mentioned in my comment above where the effect was the the opposite of what we're seeing (with the added extra of adult men appearing to be seeing a greater increase than adult women) and how it's so easy to come up with post-hoc explanations using what seem like reasonable and factual premises.
