I'm truly sympathetic towards the people affected, especially visa holders. But speaking solely of the macro effects, I have to say, I'm happy this day, stretching from last year to now, has come. We as a community were a very annoying group of people when we were so damn rich and when we thought we were essentially untouchable. And count me in that as well! But a little awareness of layoffs here and (for some people) a little fear of ChatGPT replacement there... well that's a grounding experience. Not to mention the number of people who had sunk into so much ennui and depression over how boring and easy it was. Now a lot of us are jobless and can feel some fire in our bellies again, a time to fight or die.

> You should review PRs, you should review them in a timely fashion. You should, you should, you should. That’s all Push. Any wonder that so many teams struggling with PR dwell time?

The problem with this is nobody is performance managed on PR reviews. Features are often what get put on performance reviews, so it becomes beneficial to the PR author to go work on another feature than review someone else’s PR. Reviewing a PR for a feature doesn’t get your name attached to it. More often than not, your review is considered a formality imposed by upper management and impediment to the feature in the eyes of line managers.

> depends.. i think it feels saturated if you are a poor performer.

There's a lot of luck involved in getting hired right now, even for high performers. There are a lot of other high performers competing for the same jobs.

I know some people who were laid off and found jobs in a few weeks, several others who were on the market for many months, and there was not a significant skill-based correlation.
Some people depend on undefined behavior, but there's generally not much sympathy for it, because it is in the name.

On the other hand, many people have depended on interpretations of intent.

Changing the behavior of one is much easier for the community to swallow than the other.

An easy example is how early versions of IE failed to correctly implement the box model for sizing elements. For backwards compatibility reasons, IE6 and on would revert to the old, incorrect behavior if parsing the html document put it into 'quirks mode', and later on this behavior was added as an optional CSS box-sizing property.

I think it really depends on the role. From a very non-scientific review of what I see on LinkedIn from former colleagues/friends that have now been unemployed for at least 3 months or more:

1. Software engineers and others with specific technical skills are still in high demand. During the boom years, many companies simply couldn't afford the tech talent they wanted/needed because there was so much competition. However, I think it's safe to say some folks who got laid off from FAANGs will literally never make those total comp numbers again.

2. The people I see really struggling are more in the "tech adjacent" roles: think HR, recruiting, some product managers, lots of non-tech marketing folks like social media managers, roles like "agile coaches", etc. In some cases I've seen people completely leave tech because they just couldn't find work.

3. Lots of demand for good salespeople. Good salespeople are kind of always in demand, though.

Honestly, at least with Apple, you can go to them and get a battery replacement for $99 (or less), even for pretty ancient iPhone models. I have no idea if other manufacturer with sealed phones have as straightforward a battery replacement experience.
I don’t know how the ex faang employees are taking this but we’re picking up people at basically a 10-20% higher talent rate than before the faang layoffs and there seems to be a large hunger for this.

The way it plays out between our engineering management and hr is that we are hiring people who would have been evaluated at the top end of whatever level N we filtered on at the bottom of the N+1 level.

Eh, you can just get the price and include it in the budget as a monthly expense, no different from any other. Consider that the normal one time price will only last for as long as you use the OS. Why is a one time fee that will last an undetermined but long time always simpler than a repeating fee? And what if the one-time fee is too expensive and I wanted to spread it?

Unless Microsoft decides to change the price later of course. In which case you'd have little recourse since changing OSes is hard.

I think the strongest competition is actually other Windows versions: People are usually fine with the Windows version they know and use - Microsoft already had to drag it's users kicking and screaming to update from XP to 7, then later from 8 to 10.

I feel they'd have to up that kind of pressure by a lot to get people to switch not just to a new version, but now even one that requires a subscription.

So if this ever becomes reality, I expect a massive campaign of FUD, dark patterns and deliberate incompatibility to get people to leave the old versions.

Which is the case for memory fragmentation without a GC.

A naively written program in C++ will, if left to run long enough, eventually fragment memory so much that allocations start to fail.

But before then you'll have "non-deterministic" behavior of the allocator jumping around the heap trying to fulfill allocation requests.

Exactly! Before you could add the cost of hardware and Windows together and come up with a single number that reflects how much money you’d spend before retiring a pc once the hardware gives out. With this innovative new model we can simply forecast the number to be higher or lower, or ideally just leave it blank until we fill it into the spreadsheet at hardware EOL.

I do wonder how they expect to compete on the home PC market against Android and iOS devices with a subscription that is more expensive than the one time license.

As for business, yeah they're probably going to bundle it on MS365 and deal with it. Even for consumers, how many home Windows PC users don't use Office?

> I think we'll see a solid 3x increase in the total cost of owning Windows for anyone that keeps their computer for 10 years. That's about where Office got priced. It broke even at about a 3 year lifecycle IIRC, so any individuals or small businesses that ran a longer lifecycle saw a dramatic increase in cost.

Maybe they're hoping that a lower initial price will lure in more users? Are the people with longer lifecycle easier to extract higher prices from for some reason?
They can do that but that costs money so they never will. We worship the dollar like its a god above gods. No way we're going to willingly do something that costs the rich a dime more than absolutely necessary.

> mostly just because devs seem to have given up the fight about custom firmware on a phone in general

This is more like prioritization. If you can't even install your own apps, you focus on the gorilla holding a knife to your throat.

> But if you're talking about the phone signing the image after light editing like a crop has happened, at that point you're talking about moving this signature into user-space code, and while I'm sure that problem could have been explained better to you by the devs, it's not surprising to me at all that you'd get a hostile response to that suggestion because I don't see how it would be possible to do that without locking down user-space code.

That's the part that isn't a problem. If you had an existing image with an existing signature, you could modify it and store the changes as a diff against the original. You don't need or even want to sign it again, you just keep the original and its signature intact. Compressing two images that are nearly identical against each other shouldn't even have particularly high overhead.

Doing it this way would also be more secure because you wouldn't have to trust the device doing the modifications in any way.

The problem continues to be how to create such a signature to begin with, without depriving the user of control over their own property or leaving the keys inside of devices that are in the physical possession of every attacker in the world.
