I actually got my first job out of college this way. I was trying to get a job in something completely unrelated to what I studied, so I was doing whatever I could think of to get noticed. I still can't believe it worked, but it set me on a good path, at least.

I don't think anyone would be surprised - what you're describing is pretty obvious to anyone who has ever looked into Tor for more than .1 seconds. It's also pretty well understood that when restrictions can be evaded it will be used for both good & bad purposes, that's just the nature of it.
We considered it as a replacement to Slack to decided to stay on Slack. The reason is that we were unable to configure any meaningful network/firewall policy for it. The app reports all your actions to a bunch of 3rd parties, which we obviously want to cut, but as I remember the main problem was that their backend API is also non static and changes its IP all the time so that was a total mess to track and configure properly.
Agreed, absolute garbage. In the opening paragraphs the author claims:

> I’m not that familiar with the trial itself, so I will say nothing beyond noting that if Crews, Predergrast (and Elizabeth Loftus, the recovered-memory expert who endorsed Prendergrast’s book) are right, we have to at least revisit the Sandusky matter.

But then proceeds to write an entire blog about the trial, claiming the victims were coerced by lawyers for financial gain? And that claim is made after reading a medium blog post about a book about concepts related to the trial?

This is a silly post. But to be fair, the author looks like they write thousands of train of thought words on random topics (national chocolate day shares a blog post with Mitch McConnells seizure) where they spew their thoughts, so bad logic is inevitable. I like to polish my blog posts, others don’t - each has pros and cons. This Sandusky post is clearly a con.

If you don't want to go down the NFS share route then Capistrano is a useful tool if you're willing to write a little bit of ruby. It comes with some built in goodies like rollbacks. It's an oldie (pre-dockerize everything), but still useful.

You can start by deploying from your machine to simultaneously get it deploying across all your servers, then I'd consider having a CI/CD pipeline take over and run Capistrano for you.

What does it look like when somebody gets “socially in trouble” for being picky? What actually happens to them (socially) in this instance?

I’ve never seen or heard of anything like this, so I’m really curious about it.

Thank you! DataGridXL is awesome as well. None of what we're doing would be possible without data grid libraries.

And yes, good catch on the drag after a single click, we're tracking and plan to fix :)

Interestingly, I've found that newer database-like spreadsheet apps like notion or airtable favor the single click to drag and reorder columns behavior. But for a more analytical tools where multi-column selection is more relevant, click and dragging a column should simply multi-select columns.

The pancakes is the standard box mix - it doesn't have real buttermilk in it.

Bacon is often pre-cooked and just warmed, though cooking fresh bacon still happens.

Toast is factory made bread, though the final toasting was done onsite. Most Americans have never had real bread.

The above is breakfast - the meal most likely to be made on site. Lunch and dinner are far worse.
I like using multiprocessing pools whenever I need to plow through something quickly, or if I don't already have a task queue like celery set up.

However, this article feels off to me. Everything I read from redhat always feels a bit wrong for some reason. I don't know what it is exactly. It might just be that they used "a" instead of "the" in the title. But Ive had the same feeling with other manuals and whatnot from redhat.
I think a critical component of making platform teams work is to allow internal competition between the platform team and the stream-aligned team using some other technology. In this way the platform team is a stream-aligned team whose customers are internal, and they have to win or lose within their market (internal teams). For example, a stream-aligned team can either use platform team CI/CD or github actions.

What I've seen is that platform teams work well in either small scale (because focus is clear to all) and large scale (because of this internal competitive dynamic) but are extremely hard to execute between the two.

> I've started grinding leetcode, reviewing system design, and behavioral questions. You MUST memorize perfect responses to regurgitate as fast as possible on the interview. Again, you cannot afford a single mistake in process right now or they will pass on you.

I'm not discounting that it is hard to find tech jobs right now, but have you considered that this attitude of "grinding leetcode" is possibly contributing to companies not biting? I would imagine the most important qualities to have in an interview are going to be charisma and an ability to reason through technical problems.

Sony's phones seem best to me. Vanilla android with headphone jacks and microsd slots. They're just expensive. Nobody ever talks about Sony's phones for some reason but I think that's great because I wouldn't want them to get an ego and start ruining a good thing.

Every release gets more limited & restrictive, as does the Play store & framework.
If they want to downgrade android to be iOS, while iOS is improving, at some point I might as well just buy iOS.

> No, the private property rights of Congress are protected by all of the same property rights clauses that protect you and me, including Due Process and Equal Protection.

The Due Process Clause of the 5th Amendment (but not that of the 14th) does limit Congress, the Equal Protection Clause (of the 14th, there is only one of those) does not, it only limits the States.

In any case, those provisions don't prevent Congress from passing laws which regulate your or my participation in securities trading, either with rules that treat us the same as everyone else, or with rules that provide targeted limits based on institutional relationships (targeted restrictions need to not be on grounds that are specifically prohibited, and need to have sufficient relationship to a legitimate government purpose, but you haven't presented an Constitutiinally-grounded argument against either.)

Your comment is almost completely incomprehensible to me, as someone that doesn't work in the Meta context...

I take it being an L5 is a good thing? but just six months ago you were an L8, and competition to become an L6 was a coin toss? No idea what 'price discovery' could mean in this situation, other than a fairly weird way to say 'salary range'? And any of this having to do with 'the bond market' is just baffling!

The reason I bring it up is that I'm genuinely curious what life is like in other corners of the tech world. Any way you could translate the above into non-Meta terms?
I can tell you that 9 times of 10 when I hit a 404 on an ecommerce website, I can’t find the product anymore through a website’s search function. Knowing this, sometimes I don’t even bother to search at this point anymore and go somewhere else. So there is at least one lost customer here in such a transition. And, observing how my less tech-literate relatives interact with websites, I suspect there are many more lost customers.
> It only exists on Android because it started off as a non-touch OS.

That doesn’t really make sense, it has very little to do with the actual interaction. It seems Android apps were originally envisaged as a collection of islands rather than one solid block. In that context the back button does make sense, you’d be jumping from “activity” to “activity” rather than app to app, and the back button would provide a logical thread through all of that.

But it didn’t work out that way at all, apps became just as centralised as iOS ones and the back button’s original functionality became kind of vestigial.
Lithium batteries can be readily recycled.
Yep, exactly. I've known some really great devs who lived in the midwest, and didn't want to move to the coasts. They're totally okay with half the comp someone would look for in one of the big cities.

Ask HN: Would you give a last chance to apps that are close to death?

Affinity is mismanaged and their developers have posted very publicly about being miserable there. The applications are buggy on a good day, unusable on bad days.

One area where AI agents can help, is in going to the supermarket! many times what look like competing brands, are all owned by the same people, like Kellogg's or Procter & Gamble. they just create different packaging to appeal to different people. branding is just obfuscation. it'd be great to have the veil taken off, and every time you look at a product it shows you how the marketing team who made it, placed it in the market, should be cheaper than this other product but more expensive than something else, and so they created a new image in order for it to find a place in the market. market.

The chmod problem aside, how does this not seem crazy? Why in the world should a hard-coded filesystem path (let alone a particular mount point) be necessary to access some process-related kernel features? Would the sky fall down if they provided a non-filesystem way (read: a syscall...) to access useful functionality like all the other apparently-uncool kernels do?

Uhm, after that "someone" joined a gang and took her hostage in order to steal money? If that's logical that sounds like a problem, whether theory is shoddy science or not the thing is real if even you, not victim, fall into that delusion.

People can be thankful to someone who improves things even if that someone creates the horrible situation in the first place. It's a problem and in politics too.

You know that you could just… provide that reason and get approved, right?

Apple isn’t banning the use of these APIs. It just requires you as a developer to actually be transparent and honest about the things that could potentially fingerprint a user.

To make that sound like a bad thing because you’re lightly inconvenienced is an interesting take.

At my job I created a slack bot that posts a daily random leetcode challenge every morning (easy and medium difficulty only, for now). It's there for fun because we're a team of devs who love coding. But I also created it so I can practice every day just in case I get laid off (we had 2 rounds of layoffs within a year).

But honestly, I'd still enjoy the daily challenge either way
> bulk of each one of those resumes do not come close to even being in conversation range of the posted JD

I've wondered about that. Sometimes I see jobs that sounds super interesting, but I only match maybe 50% of the unique bits of experience they want. Then I see 200 applicants and think ... how many people are just applying for the hell of it, because the job sounds cool, even though they have none of the right experience?
That’s a good thought, but I do want to stay on the technical side for now. Perhaps that would be to my detriment, but I find the actual developing and problem solving so exciting!
