> It’s like calling California coastal cities dystopian because of their desirable weather, or whatever factors make people prefer to live in them compared to a small town in Montana.

If we were to carry the analogy through, it would be like if the California coastal cities were prohibitively expensive but there were only like 8 other cities in the US spread across the entire current land mass far away from everything and they all had expensive real estate, even shittier salaries, and no good job opportunities.

And then someone told you that’s fine, the coastal cities with the jobs and opportunity are for the privileged and you just need to hoof it back to Mobile, Alabama and stop complaining.

Can’t afford to live where the opportunities are because you don’t live where the opportunities are. guessilljustdie.jpg

It definitely starts to sound like the setup for some pretty standard dystopian scifi movie with a underclass of exploited people serving the privileged.

If you’re from the US, most friends and do-workers I have down there are always surprised and I don’t think fully grasp the differences and just how little is up here in America’s hat. Canada doesn’t really do the in between cities the US does. It’s a few major metro areas and a whole lot of empty space. It’s the population of California living in a country bigger than the US. The province I’m originally from is larger than Texas but with 1/30 the population. I’d have to drive 8 hours to get to an IKEA. When someone says “the big city is for the privileged” that’s the option left for you.
They should really follow MS and go web on this. Have a local electron app for offline users but have the same code base for self-hosted cloud or their own paid/supported cloud office offering.
Can we supply our own fine-tuned models?

Edit. I'm sure it's answered on your site but sometimes it's better to include it right here! :)

Feels like it is just, here, tested it once for 2 mins doing one or maybe two things. At best it gives you an idea of what to avoid but I've never come out of one of those videos knowing what I'd actually want.

It also feels like the videos could be a courter in length if they just included a table with product data.
That's all moot though, since your server has access to plaintext emails when sending and recieving (99.99999% of email addresses would be outside skiff), which completely subverts the whole point of encryption. A vulnerability on the server could leak all user emails, without needing their keys.... This is a solution theoretically only as strong as encryption at rest.
What kind of a comparison is that, lol. Argument is Car vs Train not the Plane vs Train.
Trains are always better than a car for the same distance planned.
No one has to pay overdraft fees. Account holders can disable overdraft on any account if they don't want it.

Surgeons aren’t engineers, they’re technicians.
> Mostly the harm a software engineer can do will be in monetary losses and not in the loss of life

Software engineering as a profession is so immature that we haven't seen many serious incidents yet. But people have died because of bugs. And this will only increase over time as we keep using more and more software.

That's ancillary; the biggest thing is offloading liability that would sensibly lie with the institution that lent money to a fictitious version of you.
Gothya, thanks, I understand now.

> but stopped after searching for stuff on Google and YouTube on the container I had my work Google account logged in

Thought I'd mention though, that this is one of the areas I find containers a life-saver. Google's handling of multiple accounts is so badly broken, that I only ever log into a single account on a single container. Easy to keep work and personal Google separate then.
You forgot to list the most hypocritical--american--topic filtered, erotic content. I know, the american world will go down in flames if a generative AI ever outputs something sexy.

You can google all these scary things these days already. And prior to that, you could go to a bookstore and find most of what you mentioned. Or go to asstr.org for your fucked up sex stories

Pretending a content filter on a generative AI would make anything better is simply bigottery.
Complain to the FTC (or the appropriate regulator). They are now very cognizant of dark patterns.
Noatime, disable swap, logs in RAM, /tmp in RAM, .xsession errors in RAM(With logrotate or it will fill up! So many random problems can make a problem there), chromium profile folder in RAM if you do kiosk work(Browser makers must hate flash!).

From what I hear Home Assistant is still not the easiest if you want to run for years on a card, not sure if that's fixed now, but it's one of the big factors blocking me from moving to HA.
Sure why not. If we make mortgages easier to get we can help enough people to say we’re doing something and still keep the property bubble inflating. It’s win-win!

Maybe next we can let people dump all their retirement savings into the real estate market penalty free and inject some more cash and see how far we can take this!
We're still on 2.6 though right? I may have lost track, but I thought 2.4/2.5/2.6 was the last of the stable/long lived dev series.
I never used office software much, but I do use it to view the occasional csv. I avoid cloud offerings like the plague, since I don't like getting rug-pulled.
Battery on my laptop works well, no power failures since... '96?

Sibling comment mentions backup files, yes a thing too. Also make local and remote backups separately, don't you?

So I haven't had a local app lose work in decades. Can't even remember the last time. Definitely before Y2K or so.

What does go out several times a year? Yes, you guessed it, our internet connection!
Or just use an async Http client with a little asyncio snippet. Depends on what you're comfortable with and what code you have running already.

If you're a junior and have no clue, your best bet is to ask a senior in your team though.
So your argument is: FBI bad, so the Chinese government should be allowed to spy. Ok then.
Well, it could mean that they are focused on AI development and utilizing AI in all of their products and services. Being an AI-first company does not necessarily mean that you build AI tools for others to use.

Google is lagging behind in the market space for public AI tools, agree, but I am not convinced they are as far behind in AI development as you indicate.
Not sure if a myth, iirc it was literally in the ZFS manual last time I looked into ZFS (which to be fair was 10+ years ago).
On chat applications: In Finland no one used AIM and everyone used messenger.

I suspect this was the norm also elsewhere in Europe.
I am talking about Messenger 4.6 that came built in with windows xp and its later versions, not the business version.

> they don't dominate

How do you know this? Outside of a few niche interests like mechanical keyboards or PC building, I'm not sure that most of the people on subreddits like vacuumcleaners.reddit.com are huge vacuum cleaner enthusiasts. It's just as likely that the people there have more skin in the game and are either marketers or resellers.
This is such an infuriating problem. I'm convinced I'm using Go wrong, because I simply can't understand how this doesn't make it a toy language. Why the $expletive am I wasting 20-30 and more minutes per week of my life looking for the source of an error!?

Have you seen https://github.com/tomarrell/wrapcheck? It's a linter than does a fairly good job of warning when an error originates from an external package but hasn't been wrapped in your codebase to make it unique or stacktraced. It comes with https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint and can even be made part of your in-editor LSP diagnostics.

But still, it's not perfect. And so I remain convinced that I'm misunderstanding something fundamental about the language because not being able to consistently find the source of an error is such an egregious failing for a programming language.
My machines have always been just constantly writing logs, like every couple seconds (macOS does this), and the write wear has never been anywhere near that bad. The advertised endurance must take into account write amplification for typical loads.
Search is the majority of their revenue so that they can subsidize their other products. Devastation somehow doesn't feel like it properly captures how much it would hurt them to lose it.
The problem with Wirecutter (eventually - years ago I used it fairly regularly) was that the reviews could not compete with Reddit/Youtube/etc. It worked if I just wanted something generic and half decent, and didn't care too much about the price, but twenty minutes of searching through comment sections usually yielded better and more specific results.

This makes sense - it would be impossibly expensive to pay a team of professional writers and editors to test products in the number and depth of "crowd-sourced" reviews. Wirecutter provided trust and convenience but, for me, not enough to overcome that fundamental disadvantage.
License bait and switch is a promising business model though, lure in the suckers with a liberal license, just make sure that contributors sign a CLA. Then you can hit them with a change to an onerous license after you have gained traction and a commanding market share.
I used to put "Computer Programmer" [1] on my tax return. Based on BLS definitions, I now put "Software Developer" [2].

I'm subscribed to the former but I found that at least some of my circle of friends and family don't like their reviews because they don't focus on things like "coolness" or aesthetics. Instead they take into account things like safety, labeling and other things.
iMessage itself is a feature that makes people want to buy iPhones (maybe). The colour of the text bubble is not.
Semver makes sense for libaries, but not much for user-facing applications.
They don't seem to get surfaced in Google anymore either. At least, not for me over here in Australia!

Haven't looked at Wirecutter in the longest time!
So basically the free plan is free trial for 1 month?
If software can be reverse engineered, we might as well call those who built it “software engineers”. However, I don’t mind if people refer to me as a “programmer” or “developer”.
Except a few walled gardens, like search and social media (FB and Google do not share much of your data with advertisers, and nearly none with other adtech companies), ads are bought through real-time bidding. And the bid is paid regardless of how you respond to the ad.

The majority of ads are bought this way, so your click does not harm the advertisers whose ad would otherwise have been blocked. This could impact the relative value of the publisher’s website, but the industry in general is not overly inhibited by ad-blocking, so I don’t think this extension would have much impact in any sense.
I wish it was, instead we have people around the team pushing people to cut corners, and engineers tinkering hacks to get along.

To be fair I don't think we even have the tools to create software that we can be liable for yet, not without halting progress to a point where, without strong laws, companies cutting corners would win by iterating way faster.

Hy there i can see your post and i must sayNamed Entity Recognition (NER) is a natural language processing (NLP) task that involves identifying and classifying entities, such as names of people, organizations, locations, dates, and more, within a text.

I dunno, I gave up on Wirecutter for anything I actually cared about almost 10 years ago - I found that for anything that I had actually done even basic research on, the Wirecutter was always wrong (and not just like sort of wrong, but like completely missing the point/out to lunch wrong): https://randomfoo.net/2014/03/22/the-wirecutter-is-always-wr...
Whenever your chip draws current from the power-rails in short bursts you esentially momentarily pull down the voltage of the power rail, and it can do that because the power supply has a non-zero internal resistance and thus forms a voltage divider with everything that is connected to it. This dip in voltage can affect neighbouring chips.

The solution is to install a small bucket/reservoir (a capacitor) which is filled with enough charge to serve that burst and smooth it's effect on the power rails (and thus decoupling it from the neighbouring components). The size of that capacitor depends on the load, but for most ICs it is enough to put one 100nF capacitor per power rail, but check the datasheet for more info.
I was a subscriber to choice here in Australia. I think the model of paying a subscription was better than the site having to rely on advertising.

I didn't renew though because I just didn't agree with the reviewers on products I knew a lot about, so didn't trust the rest of the reviews.

I also think it is a big oversight not to consider warranty terms when reviewing products. Some produces have standard 1 or 2 year warranty competing with products with "lifetime" warranty. How can that not play a huge factor?

I am both a software "engineer", and have separate non-CS engineering degrees.

What the vast majority of us in software do is not engineering. I think like you say liability is one part, but another big part is the immense breadth of unknowns we have to deal with and accept. There's no budget or time given for properly figuring out and scoping a project (for most programming), because the penalty for failure isn't so steep. It's not written in blood, so we don't dedicate the resources necessary to really engineer it.

Some programming is arguably engineering. Many parts of aerospace for example. Some of the medical devices space. But it's overall a very small percentage of total programming happening in that world.

And you know, that's probably okay, for now at least.

> I remember 20 years ago HDDs were not meant for eternity either, but they definitely outlived the usefulness of the computer that they were bought with...

Anecdotally I remember HDDs failing sometimes for me and my friends/relatives back in the day. Now it barely happens for SSDs. Hell, even supposedly problematic old Intel from late 2000s still works fine in the same old MacBook I gave to my mother after using it for years.

I wonder what it the actual data regarding this.

Probably the simplest version of a "package manager" are git submodules. Pointing submodule to `master` is effectively the same thing as pointing a "real" package manager to `latest`. This is trunk based development, however you implement it.

One could easily argue that floating versions are considered harmful for releases outside of development team and should always be pinned, but on the other hand it is hard to argue against support for floating versions in development. As much as I dislike floating versions, I am not aware of any other way to force changes downstream.
I run a diagram generator using OpenAI API, the pricing model is credit-based, kind of the same with most of the LLM-based SaaS out there :D
There are several well-heeled competitors in that space. Do we need another one? You really want to pay hosting for word processing? Or pay with your privacy instead? Electron—big no thank you there as well.

That said, I think someone is looking into it. Choice is fine, as long as this local app continues.

> If you really want to help the Internet Archive survive, the very best thing any of us can do is donate directly to the IA so that they can afford good legal council to fight back against the music and book publishers who want to shut them down

I thought you were going in a different direction until your last sentence. The IA needs donations to afford good counsel to advise them on the law before they make boneheaded decisions that put their mission in legal jeopardy. Preserving online content is one thing, "lending" in-print books is rather far from the core mission IMO. Even authors who are anti-DRM were outraged by the ill-advised lending scheme on book copies the IA didn't even pay for.

Ask HN: Do software engineering leaders write code?

Hmm, I remember being 4 years old, not knowing anything at all about the brain, the mind, or much else for that matter. I actually was pretty confused about everything around me. But I knew the voice in my head was me thinking, and I know for a fact that not a single thing was taught to me directly or indirectly to influence that. I just knew that those were my thoughts, because I was thinking them. I’m not special so I’d guess most people “just know” that it’s their own mind, without having to know what a mind is a or have any knowledge at all, and that they aren’t hallucinations.

It’s pretty weird to me that many folks view the people in our past as being unable to be intelligent near or on par with today’s levels. These people were not hypnotized by hallucinations, that’s saying they were not smart enough to even have a thought that they could understand it came from themselves. Yet they were smart enough to develop pulleys and create pyramids, or many other wonders of the world. Things we literally do know how they weee able to do at that time in the past. Things that none of our modern structures will outlast. Things that took understanding of complex subjects, capacity planning, raw material refining, site surveying, astronomy, physics, math, weather patterns, etc.

I wonder in 12k years if humans will look at us and say we were incapable of knowing that our thoughts were ours and lived in a hypnotic state viewing our thoughts as hallucinations. They couldn’t possibly know for one. And also, doesn’t that seem like a odd way to view people who accomplished things we still don’t fully understand?
It’s not obvious even if ads pay your salary. Adtech is mostly real-time bidding, and the bid is for the impression, not the conversion. Adtech wins either way.
You're an engineer if you burn some fuses in a FPGA chip to get a behavior.

You're just a hacker if you write a program which does the same thing and write it into an EEPROM.
An impossible position if consciousness is not materialistic, especially since you discount the 3000+ years of cross-cultural claims and documented methods for reaching such states for yourself. It's hard to imagine what else might class as a universal signal there's something to explore here.

Your attitude makes it inherently impossible to prove a non-materialistic position as you refuse to investigate for yourself. Far from strengthening your ability to find the truth you are simply closing your mind to other possibilities.
