The software dev job market is cooling down. Making good choices on what to build experience in is more important than it has been in recent years.

I think many companies, including mine, are thinking they have only a few spots to fill and a lot of candidates to consider. I know we consistently say things like “who will be productive quickly?”
The movie and music business sure spends a lot of money fighting piracy. This fruitless endeavor draws a lot of parallels with the war on drugs.
And Supercell are probably one of the most successful mobile gaming companies ever.
Rust makes concurrency really easy, at least in comparison to C or C++. It has great cross-platform frameworks available, like Tokio which pgvecto.rs uses, and makes using them safe and straightforward.
Probably not. Just intrastate long distance within the same area code could cost as much as an (expensive) cross-country call. Phone rates were oriented towards rarely calling outside of your immediate town and its neighbors.

To some of the other comments about email, I was the chair of a non-profit board for many years. And while, everyone eventually on the board got on email, it probably took at least a decade and I recall at one point, I used an MCI service that would print out and snail mail an email to the laggards.
Respecting robots.txt and setting UA are two different things. And yes, i know UA can be set to anything, however, the UA has been mentioned, and it shouldnt change drastically, under normal circumstances by a lot of these scrapers.

Respecting the robots.txt has nothing to do with what the UA is set to. Yes, you can say this UA can do x in the robots.txt, but not respecting it, makes it moot.

The method i put in place does not use robots.txt, so theres no need to worry about them not respecting it anymore.

As someone else mentioned, like the world of spam and such, its an arms race. The solution may not be perfect, but its functional

There is a word for it, stigmergy. It is just conspiracy minus the direct communication. A network where nodes each behave according to their observations rather than communicating. Termites don't conspire either.
Here's Mariner Eccles, one-time Fed chair (the current Fed building is named after him), agreeing (IMO) with you:

"It is utterly impossible, as this country has demonstrated again and again, for the rich to save as much as they have been trying to save, and save anything that is worth saving. They can save idle factories and useless railroad coaches; they can save empty office buildings and closed banks; they can save paper evidences of foreign loans; but as a class they can not save anything that is worth saving, above and beyond the amount that is made profitable by the increase of consumer buying. It is for the interests of the well to do – to protect them from the results of their own folly – that we should take from them a sufficient amount of their surplus to enable consumers to consume and business to operate at a profit. This is not “soaking the rich”; it is saving the rich. Incidentally, it is the only way to assure them the serenity and security which they do not have at the present moment." [0]

> You say this as if it's a one-way street, but it ain't. Pulumi and Hashicorp profit from there being an ecosystem of providers compatible with both and therefore useful to both sets of customers.

This is idealism.

The reality is Pulumi's providers have no value for Terraform, which already built and curated its own ecosystem after years of time and effort. Then, Pulumi can spin up a directly competing product in a fraction of the time by reusing all of that work. So I understand the motivation for the license change.

Circling back to your original comment which spawned this thread:

> Like, has anyone of any significance used a Hashicorp product to meaningfully compete with Hashicorp?

The answer is unequivocally "yes". Pulumi has. And Pulumi can continue to do so, apparently. Terraform providers continue to be MPL-licensed.

Another example I learned of was IBM Cloud Secrets Manager, which is basically reselling Vault: https://www.ibm.com/cloud/secrets-manager

With IBM Cloud® Secrets Manager, you can create secrets dynamically and lease them to applications while you control access from a single location. Built on open source HashiCorp Vault, Secrets Manager helps you get the data isolation of a dedicated environment with the benefits of a public cloud.
So what would be the best mobile development setup for someone who:

- prefers to work in a Unix-like environment (e.g. Linux);

- prefers to code in Vim;

- prefers to have a single unified codebase for different mobile platforms;

- prefers to test applications on a Linux machine running an X server.
That actually makes it worse, not better. You’re basically denying authors the peanuts they get.

I'm currently in the process of removing tRPC from our codebase. It's been a nightmare of tight coupling. I've also found that it encourages more junior developers to not think about interfaces / data access patterns (there's a mapping from Prisma straight through to the component). It's fantastic for rapid prototyping but really paints you into a corner if you ever want to decouple the codebase.
I have made some "SEO" optimizations as some agencies use text-based CV matching. Some are upfront with it, with others I observe it because I get a lot of Java project requests (I never coded Java, but as a FE dev, have lots of JavaScript in my CV text).

I'm gladly looking forward 3-5 years, when AI will handle this CV analysis and match a project description from a company to a proper candidate. Basic GPT can tell right now if CI/CD matches "Azure Pipelines". Then we can fire the lower 50-80% of unskilled recruiters that do not provide any value to the market right now.
I think the point of the story is that his son used the process instead of panicking.

It’s easy to say he said the wrong thing, but compared with a panicked phone call, it’s pretty good.

A process like this helps override the natural response to a situation. People often think they would be cool in a crisis. But panic makes you do weird things.
Often we aren't worried about the consensus surrounding specific results but the prescriptions they are motivating from a totally different group of policy makers. Science comprehension is poor by politicians and words and meaning are often twisted to suit a need tangential to the original scientific finding. So when we see people fighting against a scientific result it is often because it is myopic and will be used to motivate poor policy.
A portion of office space needs to become more fungible. Work office pods of 4-8 offices or desks that are lockable if needed.

Small satellite offices that don't need big commutes would probably bring in more people. I like the idea of a small office that I can come into if I want - I just HATE commuting. I also hate open office spaces - its anti productive.

The student athletes aren't paid anything. The reality is that in academia there are a great many positions meant to be temporary, positions that in the past might not have been paid anything at all. Many undergrads generate massive amounts for their schools. Not every star athlete is on scholarship. Not every lap assistant is a paid grad student. Most are actually required to pay the school for the education they receive despite them also generating revenue.
“Socialism” but without any of the social safety nets, from what I hear. Lots of retirees getting their pensions reduced, their personal savings in the form of real estate (~75% of household wealth) sinking in value, can’t even see a doctor without waiting for months (unless paying high fees out of pocket), high debt loads both public and private, deflationary pressures, and oh, the whole population shrinkage thing in the long run. Daunting challenges even for a fearless leader that knows what he’s doing, not to mention the one they’ve got.
Have you come across any newer mobile RE resources?
You're welcome! Thanks for continuing the civil discourse :)

But, let's take just apache and nginx as an example: Lots of people offer just webhosting as a service. It's gotten less and less common now, with things like Squarespace, Shopify, Medium, etc. etc. etc., but once upon a time there were tens of thousands of companies that were making all their money by providing storage/compute/networking and a place to upload your HTML files, and then later adding in additional services like PHP and other scripting languages, MySQL for database hosting, etc.

Now, the context here is a bit different here, of course, particularly for Apache httpd. But Nginx has Nginx Plus, MySQL AB would license you a closed-source version or do the usual support/consulting/etc. stuff. But it's not hard to imagine a world where they could have easily said "Hey you know we're experts in running this stuff, we should just run it for people and charge them" - just like we see with a lot of these "open source" companies today.

There was never a general outcry about tons of businesses making money just hosting these open source services, even though the vast majority never contributed financially or otherwise to these open source projects. The only real difference I can see between then and now is simply what path the companies behind the projects, where applicable, have taken to monetize. Would the internet be a better place if MySQL AB moved to offering hosting as a service and put MySQL on the BSL, preventing all of these webhosting companies from having existed? If F5 had done it after acquiring Nginx? Cheap and plentiful webhosting is a big part of what grew the internet so quickly, particularly before the 'Web 2.0' days of social media sites centralizing so much of the traffic on the internet into a handful of places.

> But I don't think demanding that companies making useful services also be subjected to a shitty business model is a good solution.

Well, I'm not demanding a company do anything. I'm just saying that the internet as it exists today, including all of these companies we're talking about, would not exist if earlier on people had made the same choices they are. Open source is not about guaranteeing a viable business model to companies - it doesn't care about your business - it's about ensuring certain freedoms in software. And the internet we're discussing this on exists because of those freedoms it guaranteed.

If you can't build a viable business when abiding by those freedoms for whatever reason, then sure - go build proprietary software. I'm not going to call it or you evil. But I do take issue with a company using open source as a method to gain adoption, additional contributions, mindshare, etc. and then no longer being open source while talking about how they are an "evolution" of it. You're not an evolution of open source if you're removing freedoms.

Can you elaborate on these other ways? I genuinely haven’t thought too much about how research has been financed historically.
Absolutely. I’m not a fan of the overly broad definition of exploitation meaning “anyone who has a job.” Clearly voluntarily selling your labour for money isn’t exploitation. Save your money and live off the interest.
I feeling like this whole science has replaced religion is just right wing cope because science doesn't represent their feelings.

Also because people are becoming less religious, its an argument to prop up religions by saying: don't quit your current religion, all those "atheists" are just upholding different religious ideas, so they it is the same as switching to something like buddhism.

Don't be ridiculous. COVID-19 was never a serious risk to children. It's less dangerous to them than RSV which has been around forever, and we never forced people to wear masks because of RSV. And there is no reliable evidence that masks were even effective anyway.

And also encourage more theft of Apple devices.

If you legitimately buy a used apple device, you can get the password from the owner. If you regularly are getting laptops which do not come from the owner, you are probably in cahoots with a street gang to steal them.

Remote positions make it easier not harder to find someone with the skills fit that a company needs and makes any position more competitive.

Thanks for posting this. I always found it odd that the transition from labour to capital seemed to be so hard, even with mid-figure 6 income TC's it always seemed like you can't quite escape the rat race, you can definitely live more comfortably, or maybe as comfortably as you can as one of the rats in the race but never escape. Of course with very disciplined saving and LCOL arbitrage you stand a chance, however it seems like these methods are being purged with COL adjustments, inflation purging cash savings, markets tanking 401k's. Just when you think you are out they pull you back in. I often wondered whether this was by design, because it seems a bit too convenient for labour pools, or whether its a feature of the economic system we operate in.

What do you mean? There is scientific consensus that washing hands between medical procedures makes them safer. There is scientific consensus that the earth is round and is not the center of the solar system. These are not political statements.

> Science is never conclusive. There’s always the possibility of a different answer. The history of science illustrates that clearly.

What do you mean, can you give some examples? Which scientific conclusions might change? Do you mean that the earth might be flat after all? Or that your doctor not washing her hands before operating on you might be good for your health? Is non-zero ‘possibility’ being used as a justification to ignore the actual probability of a dissenting idea, even when almost all scientists agree? A small possibility is exactly that: unlikely, no?
My first job in the offshore drilling industry involved a huge amount of Telex which was the primary way we communicated with rigs' shore locations. (I don't think we even had direct communications to the rigs themselves except latterly.) Basically, we (well our admins) typed up memos which were sent by in internal office mail to the communications room on the top floor which would send and receive Telexes from the various locations.
Thanks for your comment. Totally empathize with your experiences there.

Largest Curated Collection of AI Prompts
Since the launch of ChatGPT we’ve really enjoyed hunting around the web finding / trying out different prompts. It’s so amazing and inspiring to see the breadth of problems that ChatGPT, Bard, and other AI tools can solve. And as game developers, we LOVE the image generation tools like Midjourney for coming up with concepts and helping define mood-boards and look and feel of projects.

But we were sick & tired of seeing "premium" prompts shilled as ‘eBooks’, used as clickbait to sign up for mailing lists, or locked up behind different paywalls. So we created PromptPup to let the prompts FREE... easy to browse by category, search, see previews, and share.

Also, we believe the best way to learn prompts is by example, but it takes far too much time to try prompts out yourself. With PromptPup, you can see the example text or image output and start off a step ahead as you formulate the ideal prompt for your situation.

Hope this site can become a place everyone who is into harnessing ChatGPT, Bard, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, or other systems can share, collect, upvote, and improve at their prompt engineering skills!
Why not? I download updates to apps on my phone every day. I fact, my old phone that has long stopped receiving updates still runs the latest browsers just fine. The problem isn't keeping the applications up to date.

There's a risk of kernel exploits, but I can't remember the last time the Android kernel had a bug that could be triggered by simply sending packets to it. Privilege escalation works, maybe, but getting root on Android is a lot harder than most Linux servers because of the very strict and isolated SELinux contexts.

I've installed termux on my phone and I can install nginx with a single command. Downloading a Debian chroot and launching a full, maintained Linux distro is two commands away.

Until remotely triggered Android kernel exploits become a thing, I don't think the updates are the problem here.
There's a whole section on the MMU, virtual memory, paging, process isolation in there already?
The Federal minimum wage is irrelevant here, since Massachusetts law institutes a higher $15/hour rate. As you point out, even that higher wage isn’t enough to live on.

A more robust estimate suggests that the living wage is actually $22.59 in this area.

Surely there are plenty of potential mechanisms to discourage perpetual grad student-ism by just limiting the contracts and number of years one can be paid to work at a given institution, rather than paying so poorly that the rest of society has to pick up the tab. Particularly for an institution with tens of billions of dollars in the bank and other employees with multi-million dollar salaries.
I mean conclusion seems simple here, raise minimal wages. Preferably by area too, if minimum wage doesn't allow to subside in reasonable commuting distance it means it is too low.

> Social benefits like food stamps allow individuals to take jobs at lower wage, and therefore drive down the price.

So subsidizing corporate workforce exploitation with taxes. Terrible idea.
No, it’s more like in the “Trust Buster” sense from US economic history. These are big conglomerates that control numerous subsidiary businesses across a number of industries. Japan, Korea, and numerous other countries have similar business entities.

Because they're < 1024, I guess. Anywhere I've seen besides windows needs you to be root, or have some other specific permission to listen on that port.

You said

> Until 2020, healthcare authorities in the Western world were were certain that viruses could never remain airborne for extended periods of time.

There was certainly mainstream belief that covid was limited to droplet transmission (though I remember much discussion of that as well) but the idea that Western medicine didn't think any viruses were airborne is nonsense.

Another comment brought up measles, which is a great example, and known for many decades.
You can think of the bottom bit here as a one-bit tag. Various lisps will devote additional tag bits to allow for multiple “immediate” types like characters and floats. Every additional tag bit cuts into your primitive integer space, so it’s a tradeoff.
> if the blockchain can protect access to anything on the chain, should't it be enough to store the key to encrypted data on the chain, without the data itself?

No, I mean, think of an open source game. You have both the code and the data. Say it's a fighting game.

The game only has effective power if your interest lies entirely within the game. If what you want is to beat a friend in a match then you must act within the game's rules -- use the controller, use the provided moves, and win by applying your skill.

But if all you want to do is to watch the ending cinematic, then you can escape the game's rules. You can just read the source, find the right file, and decode the ending cinematic. You can skip the requirement to finish the game or to play in hard mode. You have the code and the data, so you can break the rules.

Blockchain stuff is like that. So long what you want is within the blockchain and nowhere else, the blockchain has power.

You can store encrypted data on the chain. But since the data is public and the code is public, you can always bypass the chain. You can just take the secret, feed it yourself into OpenSSL, apply the decryption key, and bypass whatever stats accounting/etc might be part of the smart contract.

> sure, once you decrypt it, you can potentially copy it, but that's not a failure of the blockchain, because the same is true without it. the blockchain has other benefits here.

It doesn't have any, it only has weaknesses. A standard webserver would be stronger, because a webserver can work with secrets you can't access. A blockchain is by definition open code, and works with open data. It can't keep any secrets from you, or to reach into any private storage.
