Not sure about the others, but at least for Wawa and Royal Farms: many locations have offered fast-food style options for a very long time, like 25+ years, maybe more.

Wawa has always been known for quality. I remember years back when there was a romaine lettuce shortage, they put up deeply apologetic signs about how they're temporarily substituting iceberg lettuce in their sandwiches.

Meanwhile Royal Farms is known for their fried chicken. Although, the one near my college in Baltimore was more known for being a frequent target of robberies :/

On a road trip, I recently ate at a Sheetz in central PA that had Electrify America chargers. Good food selection, similar to Wawa. Not the best overall experience though -- an unhinged lunatic flipped out at me for leaving a single unused napkin on my table (which lacked a napkin dispenser, and the place had no recycling can). I avoided that charging location for my return trip...

This makes me think of Instagram/Snapchat and notably the stories feature. If you are having a fine time on your own at home on a Friday night and then open someone’s story that shows them with a few other people having fun, it can create a sense of missing out and trigger loneliness, when in fact, you weren’t feeling particularly lonely right before that event.
Central Authority is always doomed to fail if that Authority is charged with acting on behalf of a divided population with conflicting objectives. In order to make change, you actually need to change minds and hearts of individuals. This can't be done from the top down.

In practical terms, the public focus on US federal policy is that best of distraction and at worst counterproductive for change. People need to focus more on opt-in local policy. Be and. demonstrate the change that you want to see in the world. If it is good, others will take notice overtime and come on board.

Chelsea Troy has a great article describing this exact problem with meetings, and it applies to both remote & in-person meetings:

Just like we all know that meetings are better with agendas, notes, and action items, having a moderator also important.

Tesla will be getting billions of Federal dollars[1] for their network. IIRC, the law doesn't explicitly state that the network has to be CCS, only that it has to be "interoperable". If the government insists on CCS as a precondition, I predict Tesla taking them to court (and likely winning). As an outsider, it appears American manufacturers (NACS) are trying to squeeze out foreign manufactures (CCS) from Federal dollars for charging networks. I will change my mind if Hyundai, VW, Mercedes or BMW sign up for NACS.

> but instead of denouncing them to the manager, chose the path of being a good guy and do my best to help them.

There’s your problem.

My advice would be to be very open about this with your manager and let shit hit the fan next time your coworker push something that will break in production and/or create problems.

The sad reality of many environments is that grunt work that keeps the light on is very often not even acknowledged, and it’s usually more cherished the person who fixes the issues instead of the person who prevents them or never causes them in the first place.

I’ve seen this happen over and over again, sadly.

Another extrema ratio: if you’re not satisfied with your manager’s response, go talk to your manager’s manager.
It's going to be more expensive than you think, if you try to live in it the way you would in a regular apartment or house. The need for lightness in construction means there are compromises that you will have to work around.

I found Visible to be fast enough at 5mbps for most things. I hooked up a Wifi router to serve as a client for those cases where I wasn't tethering.

I think it is tougher when you try to work a remote job, since you basically do everything in the same small space. Eat cook work sleep read etc all in the same x square feet.

IMO Gitlab's offering is far more comprehensive and can't really be an apples to apples comparison.

Plus, I greatly appreciate the transparency of many of the features that Gitlab sells around security outlining exactly which open source tools they use so that you can just go do it yourself on the CI pipeline. The real value for the premium security tier is when you have a team coordinating multiple projects.

I've seen Github try to upsell to enterprise with features that I can just install in a few minutes using the tools that Gitlab tells me about.
I’ve got a 35’ travel trailer I live in usually for 4-6 months at a time for this reason. The benefits:

1. Just one engine to take care of. If you have a motor home, you’re towing a car too. So that’s two sets of drivetrains with all of the maintenance and expense that goes with it.

2. Easy to replace the drive part. If my truck dies I can just get another truck. The trailer lives on. Whole lot easier than dealing with what happens when an RV dies.

3. More maneuverable (though also harder to learn to tow if you’re not already used to it) because it pivots at the point where it connects to the vehicle.

4. Much cheaper in the long run. A diesel 3/4 or full ton truck barely depreciates at all in absolute dollars even in normal times. RVs can’t say that at all. If you buy a camper and a pickup you can probably sell them in five years for most of what you put into them.

I do generally appreciate the changes Go made to operator precedence: Go's operator precedence is the simplest to understand I've seen yet, and has the fewest surprises I've seen so far.

With that having been said, it has exactly one downside in my opinion: when porting C code, you really have to be careful sometimes. C has 15 or so levels of operator precedence, splitting similar operators into their own precedence, whereas Go has only 5 and they're always left-associative. Particularly tricky C code may actually make use of this to reduce redundant parentheses in ways that may not be entirely obvious... (especially when combined with implicit casting.)

Whenever I do quick expression language parsers for any reason, I always follow Go's operator design. It's very easy to implement and other than not matching C behavior, has less footguns.
Maybe this is a dumb question... but why doesn't Reddit lower its API prices to a point that Apollo and other app developers can afford?

Plenty of other companies have figured out how to price APIs in a way that works for developers: AWS, Twilio, Stripe, Okta, MongoDB, and Plaid, to name a few.

It's not like these companies aren't making money with their API pricing; they've all generated enough in revenues and profits to drive their valuations into multiple billions of dollars.

It's as if Reddit didn't do the basic work of rolling out API pricing: talk to customers, find price points they can live with, offer prioritized customer support in exchange for API charges, etc. Literally hundreds of software companies have followed this playbook, and have rolled out API prices without drama.

Am I missing something here?

It seems quite interesting.

I would have definitely proposed it to my company, but unfortunately the per-seat pricing is a no-go for us. We are having flexible teams, and we often change people per project or hire from contractors so the user management can quickly become a mess on per-seat projects.

We will end-up creating some shared accounts to save on costs, and it will become messy to manage, some people will be denied access,... so unfortunately we will need to pass.
Is it really like that? I expected a docker container having all the deps except for running the project which would be something that’s mounted as a volume. Then each container would spin up its own watcher to build/test/serve the project. And have a bash open to run additional commands.

Maybe my assumptions are wrong though…?

When I was moving away from Unity I looked at Godot and really liked it. It's nowhere near as performant or feature rich as other engines and it's future is undecided but it was fun to tinker with and get things moving. I hope to return to it in the future.

The lack of easy testing made me not use it. There were a couple testing plugins users had made which could kind of do unit and integration testing but they were super finicky.
Depends per person but some people go into deep sleep around an hour, some 45 like you say, etc. Best to just experiment. From personal experience I give my alarm a bit more time just because I know it takes me a long time to fall asleep.

If going for longer than say 45 though I need a minimum of 2 - 2.5 hours or it will just make things work. But a 2 to 2.5 hour nap can also really make a difference if truly exhausted.
Whatever issues these may have, they are completely irrelevant to the topic or to this thread.

I'm thinking it's because stockholders don't want a Kodak. Spending some money on looking at how AI can be used in the company, it could almost be seen as a defensive move.

Funny side note, I misremembered which company it was and my attempts at googling Canon case study brought up nothing relevant. Trying Chatgpt it said that Canon did fine, so I asked it wether there wasn't some company that did fail, and it reminded me it was Kodak.

Due to the SB-8 Housing Crisis Act of 2019, it is now largely legal to build housing. Sometimes property developers have had to sue local governments in order to enforce their rights but now most cities are complying. Obtaining the necessary land and building permits is still extremely expensive. A billion dollars worth of new housing would be great, but it would barely begin to address the shortage.

Any idea whether they'll eventually chip away at public-visibility open source projects?

"We're not Microsoft" might be GitLab's biggest remaining selling point. And the more savvy open source developers might care disproportionately about that. I'd think GitLab might be trying to lure open source, now that GitHub isn't the warm-fuzzy company that originally landed a lot of it, yet GitHub continues to be the de facto official provider for most major open source projects and ecosystems. Plus that has network effects for landing paying customers. Has GitLab given up on that?

BTW, I'm fine with GitLab charging for non-open-source commercial projects. If your startup has more than 5 users, you probably already have salaries in your burn rate, and GitLab is a relatively small cost, for a critical service. (See: TLC's "No Scrubs".) I've happily paid for GitLab in earlier-stage startups.
It's not crowded at all. There's four big kahunas I see competing:

- Render

- Railway

From easiest to hardest, in the sense of Heroku like to AWS like, I would scale them like so:

Render Railway Northflank Fly

Render is definitely the easiest, most friendly and predictable of the four.

RVs get horrible gas mileage, and are not easy to drive around.

Guess what else gets horrible mileage when you hook a trailer to it? I'll put our 26' Sprinter class C's 15mpg up against anything pulling something larger than a pod trailer. And after I did some much-needed suspension upgrades, the thing drives like a car. Best of all, I don't have to pull a trailer. We use ours a fair amount because all we do is toss food in the fridge, turn the key and go.

A lot of the reason I see for pulling a car (often referred to as a "toad". "towed", get it?), is so one doesn't have to roll everything up just to go see the sights.
I've been doing van life for over a year while being a Director of Engineering. This has involved a large amount of being on Zoom calls. I figured it would be helpful for any engineers (or managers) for me to break down some of my costs.

Internet

1. Starlink internet [50GB/mo priority data, unlimited non-priority] - $250 monthly / $2000+ for flat mount hardware. I had/have the less-expensive RV/home dish (non-mobile) before the mobile flat mount high performance dish came out. I can quickly attach it to the Harbor Freight flag pole and hoist it above most tree canopy if needed.

2. T-mobile hotspot [50ish GB/mo] - Roughly $55 monthly. Works great in cities with 5G.

3. Verizon mobile router (Peplink) [300GB/mo] - $150 monthly for the data plan from: https://mobilemusthave.com/

The reason I have all these is because I need redundant connections to do my job. It's not acceptable to not have internet one day. Also I use MultipathTCP to bond all my connections together so my Zoom calls never drop (which used to be a problem with Starlink, but less so now these days).

Fuel Costs

This is my greatest expense. I have a very heavy Sprinter van that I built out myself. I get about 14 MPG diesel. It really depends what State you are in on what the costs are and how much you travel. The general consensus between all the people I've met on the road (working full time) is that they put about 35k miles on their vehicle per year.

Campgrounds

Really only pay for for these when on the East Coast since there isn't as much BLM or USFS land.

Power

I have 600 amp hours of batteries with about 800 watts of solar on my roof, 1320 watts of portable panels that I can set up when I need to (mostly when I want to run the air conditioner 24 hours a day). I also have a 3360 watt auxiliary alternator that will charge the batteries real fast. The truth is I run a ton of computer equipment and never really worry about power.

This lifestyle has been amazing. I used to feel stuck being an engineer behind my desk all day. Now when I get tired of a town I can simply move onto the next one. There's also some amazing groups out there and I've actually made loads of friends across the country doing this same lifestyle so we'll often meet up in places. For example, Trent (who arguabily started the "Van Life Gamers" movement) has a discord full of people that live this lifestyle https://discord.gg/d4xsZEVH.

I would also say having a Sprinter Van has been so much better than an RV because it's much easier to go places with the van than a huge RV. I can park at a trail head for example in a normal parking spot.
Ask HN: What Kind of Expert Consultant Do You Need Most, Now?
I'm curious what kind of outside technical expert folks are looking for now? What skill set do you need most? Even if for only a finite-scoped project or urgent technical problem.

For example, I happen to specialize in performance & scalability, both in terms of coming in (remotely) to do fixes, rescues/rewrites, tuning or even a blanket mandate to "do whatever it takes to save us more money than you will cost us." (Like I save you $20k so get $5k. Or save you $1M so get $200k. An exchange which sure seems like "common sense" from an economic perspective. heh)

But... are their other areas of focus where there's a big gap between supply and demand -- NOW -- talent-wise?

AI, ML, and LLMs would all make sense -- but I don't want to speculate.

Let's all hear, together, from the horse's mouth(s)!

And don't say "more devs" or "nice folks who solve & ship" because that's obvious, and too generic. Be specific. :-)

thank you
It really depends! I mean you can get by for not much money, or you can live in a million dollar RV at a $200/night park in the keys with a private dock and cabana.

You can get a pretty decent truck/camper combo for under $100k.
