Got the answer: avionics
tl;dr -- You can't. The article talks all around the subject without coming to any conclusions. The title is total clickbait.
I wouldn't be surprised if they are working closely with AMD on a more customized chip suitable for the next iteration, and possibly waiting for the TSMC 3mm node to have some availability to make a chip that's very power efficient.
Your blog posts rise on HN because, from what little I've read, you don't mince words and you talk about the issues directly.

Other big-names play word games and rely on the "I'm popular with the community" shtick to back up their weak ideas. Your take on Rust feels strong and honest by comparison. I particularly appreciate the awareness of the importance of "non-technical" work in shepherding an OSS project.
The refutation is of the idea that it’s a strictly chronological layering, with the old layers inside and intact.

The correct view is that while the neocortex is indeed mostly new, the “older” more central structures were modified throughout evolution.
> The bad news is that young people still aren’t interested

And maybe that is also good news, because the youth realizes what we won't and what is at stake? Wouldn't have thought that not everything can be bought.. a little

Oh I have a good amount of acquaintances and I do things with other people, theres just no one I show vulnerability to or let the barrier down for.
If you want to foment resentment and infighting, few things work as well as long lived branches.
> What is interesting, however, is that we're not witnessing this with traditional restaurants

I think they've buffered against this a little by reducing wait staff and/or coming up with novel justifications to skim their earned tips.

Also restaurants downgrading to fast-casual (a brewery near me now makes customers dispense their own soft drinks, leaving the single bartender to bus food and tend bar).
Not that I wear my watch a lot of time but that’s far more reliable notification than anything in my phone. Though I turn the vast bulk of my potential notifications off anyway.
Yes I am avoiding this sharp departure from the original topic.
I get it but there's a seeming irrationality. A puppy sandwich conceptually doesn't exactly bode well for the still-living puppies in the sandwich. I guess the "tall" concept sort of divorces the pictures from depictions of edible things.
I can perhaps understand someone who disables JS entirely on some ultraparanoid security argument. But disabling JS "except for pages that deserve it" is nuts. It's like being vegan "except for Mcdonalds".

> Create non-game apps with Godot Engine

I really like to see how people manage to use some tools to build something entirely not intended by the its creator which give it another dimension. I once managed to build an installer for a windows app for a client (with a tight budget) using Winrar, although I usually use WixToolset.
Or you can launch dark code that gets integration tested on every build.

>> Why does the US have so few of these ships? Were more just not produced? I didn’t see an answer in the article but it’s possible I missed it.

Article mentions that as the polar ice melts there is MORE activity up there which increases the need for these ships. And the US is about to have just one left, which for some reason in down for maintenance in... the winter?
My brothers MA thesis was about comparing the multiple model forests that have been planted throughout the EUs different climate zones (I didn't even know such a thing existed, bur it makes sense).

His focus was looking at resilience against weather, insects etc. and mixed forests fared significantly better throughout all climate zones.

As someone from the alps, a thing that should not be forgotten is how important a diverse tree structure can be for stabilizing soil, especially in mountain areas. And those areas can expect more extreme wheater conditions due to climate change, especially in the form of rain. Mudslides can become a real economic factor in such regions.

Mixed forests are also better at stabilizing the soil because the root structures are less uniform.

So the best moment to plant mixed forests is 20 years ago, the next best is now.

Edit: For non-wood people, the reason why there aren't more mixed woods is that harvesting is easier in non-mixed environments (although that also has changed with newer methods and tech).
> The U.S. doesn't have a centrally planned economy.

You don't need a centrally planned economy. Subsidies are enough incentive to at least keep a bit of production around.

> Easy to know U.S. lost expertise, but tough question how do you get it back?

Invest money into subsidies / R&D like in the icebreaker case, or raise tariffs against Chinese and Indian price dumping.
> Getting hit by an asteroid would be more devastating, but I'll bet it doesn't get nearly as much funding, because there isn't as much fervor.

Perhaps because the chance of an asteroid triggering an extinction level event is infinitesimal, whereas climate change is a very palpable, ongoing issue?

Why did we spent so much money developing vaccines to address the COVID-19 pandemic, when there are supervolcanoes that could end all life on Earth as we know it?

> We have a massive oversupply of academics and scientists with PhDs. Corporations aren't the only entities with perverse incentives.

Corporations, especially publicly traded ones, will almost always pursue maximizing profits. That's quite literally the fiduciary duty of the C-Suite towards shareholders.

Academia really is not the most profitable endeavor. Spending 10+ years as a researcher to make less money than a software engineer sounds too dumb for someone smart enough to get a PhD, because it is [0]:

> For example, at Pennsylvania State University, professors in the earth and mineral sciences department made an average salary of $157,773, which was below the universitywide average of $166,731. Professors in earth and environmental sciences earned $98,567 on average at Iowa State University, compared with the average salary of $134,039.

It's worth noting that, to become an associate university professor, one needs to earn a MSc and a PhD, and spend handful of years as a postdoctorate.

Grants aren't "pocket money" for researchers either. In fact they aren't even awarded to individuals, but projects and organizations:

> [...] Dr. Hayhoe explained how a $1.1 million grant she received was spent: It was divided over four years, was split with her university for facilities costs, helped pay for a graduate assistant and covered the costs of conferences, laptops and publishing in scientific journals.

In short, I don't think these two are remotely comparable.

The current Paint.NET is really good and obviously has much more features compared to since the version from 2009. But it's not FOSS which can be a deal breaker for some.

If FOSS then Pinta [0] is the best option imo. GIMP is not bad either but feels very janky and all over the place sometimes (lacking some elementary features while overblown in other departments)

Krita [1] is the other one I'd recommend though it's a digital painting app, not a image editing one. But you can do edit images with it

As an alternative to moving providers entirely, Gmail still works without using the browser interface. My iPhone and desktop email clients both handle multiple providers, where Gmail is just one of a few. In other words, you can change clients immediately to try it out, and still switch email hosts if you choose and like the client later.
Is any of this based on anything? I'm sure I've met lots of guys that think they don't need therapy but really should be in therapy.

What metric are you using to measure need of therapy?
Inspectors would find them, perhaps, but not much you can do about it.

Some examples of issues with older homes:

* Older, just general wear and tear

* Asbestos

* Insufficient heating/cooling

* Badly designed insulation

* Low number of outlets per room

* Smaller rooms

* Annoying layout (basement washer/dryer, etc)

The real sweet spot is probably to hire a builder to build exactly what you want, but you need to wait for a downturn when they're available (they make much more money smashing out nearly identical developments).

> Otherwise, it's additional.

Why didn't they add his hair color, since it's additional? At least they told us his gender...so that's also additional. What about his political views? It's nitpicking minor details, but that's often the problem with marginalized groups. It's subtly reinforced.

You're winning, my friend.
Considering that the USA has higher salaries overall than Norway or Switzerland and comparable cost of living, it seems like the USA is just catching up and being on the level one would expect it. In those countries, a fast-food meal is around US$20.

Traditional restaurants and/or fast casual spots in the USA involve “mandatory” tipping, so even if menu prices are lower, I would assume that the total meal price is higher once one includes the tip, which nowadays is up to at least 20% if not 25%. I remember a Facebook thread that drew some angry wait staff posting things like “You better tip X% or you’re going to get some nastiness in your food next time”, and they were mainly coming from low-end chains.
> I don't feel like spending the time investing in other deep friendships.

Not a huge need, really just Alaska and the Great Lakes. For geostrategic purposes, our friends to the north have something like 20 including a couple heavies.
You're saying goodbye to the old way too soon, and I'm not talking about the bad parts.

I'm talking about the roles. Even in the most advanced progressive societies women continue to select for male providers (marry up) whilst they continue to do more care-related tasks.

In other words, gendered roles continue to exist. None of which should be shocking because the idea that it's 100% a construct and men and women are entirely egalitarian is an academic fantasy not rooted in anything.

TLDR

Trunk-based development = putting unfinished work in the team's shared branch.

Feature-branches = finishing your work first.

Anyone who's ever completed a complex PR knows how much plans change over the course of the work. Obviously those immature stages shouldn't be shared with the team, let alone be in main, whether behind feature flags or not.
Maybe there is a middle ground, such as creating "v2" (or whatsoever) folder with the newest changes where you can easily switch between the old and the new functionality.
StyleX: Meta’s CSS Library Update
I am - embarrassing. I think the album I was thinking of was 1989.
Development, like construction, is horribly ineffective at accurate projections.
So if it's "your turn" to have the (singular) long lived feature branch, you will run over your deadline and into someone else's start date. There will be someone you're blocking who starts pressuring you to finish or for the org to make an exception and allow 2 feature branches.

And six months later, what was good for the goose will be good for the gander and then you have 2 feature branches part of the official process. Which of course means you'll occasionally have 3. After that it's like Texas Highways. They just keep getting more lanes and traffic gets worse.
Examine what's preventing you from relating to your neighbors. In the past, people were friends with people older and younger than them and from different social classes. Millennials seem to have completely lost those skills which severely limits who they interact with.
> I wonder if part of why its better is due to other users providing feedback about results, but also you can pin results from specific domains to the top.

I think that matters very little. Kagi had excellent quality results for me from the start, in a huge variety of topics in several languages. Their user base is probably 90% American hacker, and I'm getting good results on queries they would never use.
I think a _LOT_ of safety is overstated. I'd be curious for an assessment of code-preventable fatalities of home occupants from, say, the 1960s until today.

I'd be shocked if the cumulative building codes since then to today could be shown to save even a single year of, say, 2022 of automobile fatalities (about 43,000 people).
As a Canadian I fully support this approach - it's not like the US and Canada could ever effectively have highly contentious relations due to our economic interdependence... and we make good stuff up here, know how to build things that deal with ice and train our crews to deal with ice - ice breakers need special knowledge to operate safely and well.
If your choices are a crash or corruption, choose the crash.
You have a home server, could be home assistant, a Raspberry Pi, your desktop computer. Access that server and all services on your phone or laptop from anywhere without figuring out ports and worrying about your server being pwned. It all looks like local traffic.

Set the DNS server on your phone to a Pi running AdGuard Home and block all ads and trackers when on 5G, not just in the browser.

Travel abroad with your laptop and designate your computer at home as an exit node and now all the traffic on your laptop looks like it is coming from that country.

It is not at all obvious that trying to develop new revenue-generating opportunities will actually bring in more revenue long term compared to optimising and improving existing revenue generating sources. And it's not like the old code stops working once you start reworking it. Give your engineers N months to rework the old code, and if it's not better you don't have to deploy it.

Every larger company I've worked at had enough engineering overhead that they could afford to have small teams working on both reworking old stuff and creating new stuff, while the main teams kept the working stuff generating revenue.
Then we can discount you argument that they are not crazy or spiteful as you are not willing to discuss refutations.

Wise Business account got frozen over ACRA (SG) mismatch
I just noticed a post from indie developer levelsio who appears to be under stress, as his Wise Business account (including incoming and outgoing transfers, cards, etc.) is completely blocked until his Wise business profile precisely matches that of ACRA.

Wise (subcategory): "Software as a service"
I don’t live there, could you provide the context in a paragraph or 2?
Yeah, the dreadnaught arms race of the first part of the 20th century was kinda an anomaly in ship design, especially considering how little big-gun naval battles happened despite two world wars. Turns out up-armoring ships hard enough that they end up legitimately surviving a close range nuclear shockwave (look up Operation Crossroads) is actually a massive waste of resources.
The subtext is that he deserved to die, I assume.

(Which is a bit sarcastic, perhaps, but people generally value the homeless less on various axis, whether they want to admit it or not, because when you hear "bad thing happened to man" you immediately want to know if that man could have been you, once you learn he was homeless the panic reaction subsides.)

In this case though we're talking about Canada - the Canadian and US economies are incredibly linked. Personally, I'm a Canadian who makes money examining the US healthcare market and reselling that data to other Americans - there's lot of crossover here.

> I don't understand. Aren't modern military ships armoured anymore?

No, no amount of armoring is useful against modern weaponry, but it does increase the "m", thus lowering the "a" you get from your engine's "F".
C21 fiction - The Wolf Hall trilogy, Hillary Mantell; by some margin the best prose I’ve seen this century.
C20 fiction - Pale Fire, Nabokov, a book to return to;

The Selfish Gene, Richard Dawkins, ditto
Philosophy - Tractatus LogicoPhilosophicus - Ludwig Wittgenstein - depths made clear.
Only the most vital parts receive some armor iirc. But not as thick as the armor found on the old battleships, and probably not curved.
Definitely not region locked sports. My YT TV account is based on the other side of the country and I can't watch our local teams quite frequently. I've been using wireguard and a dedicated wifi network to tunnel through a fiber connection "back home" and it then thinks I am local and all works well. This is much cleaner with tailscale!
I remember a very old WSJ article about "swiss style machinists" and how there are no young American ones any more. This style of machinist makes tiny objects (think of how small things inside a mechanical watch are), where a day's production fits into a coffee cup. It takes a 10 year long apprenticeship to become productive enough that a company is willing to one of these machinists. All of the "younger" ones came from Germany or Austria because their governments subsidize the long training & apprenticeship programs. In the US, virtually all of them were laid off at the end of the Cold War.

Like most trade workers, the worker owns the tools that they use on the job. When they sell their tools, they leave the trade.

I think this is being approached backwards - both by the article and by commenters here.

A Unix account is a viable access control mechanism. If you create one, you give its human user access to do everything that the Unix user can do. This can be very useful.

But others want to give humans users more restricted access than their corresponding Unix account. This is futile, since the Unix account is the basic unit of access control on a Unix or Unix-like system. The author is correct that if you want to do this then you must create a sandbox. General tools won't do, because they're not designed for it, and/or are generally swimming against the tide.
Note that ACME (Let's Encrypt) means that anyone that can reliably man-in-the-middle a server can intercept SSL traffic (module certificate revocation lists, and pinning, but those are mostly done by big sites with extremely broad attack surfaces).

Similarly, most consumer devices have a few zero-days each year, if not more, so if you really want to decrypt someone's stuff, you just need to wait a few months.

I think that both your explanations are probably incorrect though. It's a bit of "neither" in this case.

They continue to backdoor all sorts of stuff (they recently were marketing and selling backdoored "secure" cell phones to crooks), and most chains of trust are weak enough in practice.
The joy of Greenfield is short lived. At some point, it becomes too costly to fully refactor and you are stuck with what you chose and edging closer and closer to legacy dev.

Some projects though just keep on trucking along and doing the next part with the newest shiny thing. You end up with five ways to access data, three ways to send emails and fifteen different methods of report generation. Frankenstein architecture! This architecture also emerges when you have leaders that don't make decisions and peeps debating all day on slack and then doing their own thing anyway because they didn't really want to offend anyone and everyone's ideas are great.
