It's being launched over an ocean with nobody on board. These reviews are just obstruction.
The proposed summary of the review is too terse and doesn't make any sense. I don't see any redundant prose in the original one.
His concerns are clear, and he gives actionable suggestions for improvement. The tone + his opinion of the patch set is also clear.

Would you rather get a code review that is full of vague euphemisms and tries not to hurt your feelings, and then spend months wasting time on a dead end approach because you thought minor tweaks would work?

I'd much rather get one message that says where the bar for merging is so I could fix my code and get it merged. I absolutely wouldn't care if the latter was a bit sweary.
I've worked at a place where all communication must be in professional tone and polite, and you cannot give valid technical feedback that might hurt someone's feelings.

The verbal communications standards were weaponized by sycophants, who dominated middle management. It was the most passive-aggressive and hostile work environment (as in legal liability) I've ever encountered.
It seems to me the idea is sound but the specific implementation very difficult to get exactly right. Tax it too much and no one will want the land. But unless you tax it enough to really spur development it won't have an effect. Finding that sweet spot is the key, but is also going to be a moving target.
Is that true, though? I'm happy with my handwriting, but rarely ever get to write anything. Far more time spent at a keyboard.

I'll try adding this to my routine. Curious if I can track an increase in my mood and general happiness if I'm writing more.
While I wouldn't put it past Netanyahu to run a false flag operation... I think if he was hoping for it his purpose would have been a takeover of the government, not the destruction of Gaza.

He's one of the main proponents of the Hamas for the past 30 years. With this he looks like an incompetent idiot (which he is).

I think there's a chain of stupidity, bureaucracy and incompetents at fault. Reading reports in the papers over the past week it's astounding how many things went wrong. The head of the Shabak (internal security division) was on base checking notifications the day before. They had a conference call to alert the army so they would be prepared for "something", but they didn't loop in the airforce. If they had then some early air support might have changed the picture completely.
Doing the background check after the offer is fine, it's insane that they do it after the candidate already starts the new job. So what, I leave my current job to come work for you, and in the first week you tell me "sorry you failed our background check" and let me go? Who the F would ever agree to this kind of risk?

>>8. End of first week, we occasionally have to let someone go on background issues

Yeah, that's bonkers.
At my place some ennui was caused by a flood of terrible candidates, with huge demands, some of which managed to get hired! Couple that with product telling data science to "do what we're asking for" when all signs point to the idea having zero signal in the data. Fun!

We had a reckoning when we laid off half of middle management and got back to work, restructured product to be a little less aggressive and more involved in feedback loops.

Much of the adversarial stuff went away when we removed the two people driving it. The culture was essentially reset, and as an org we are doing much better.

As for the hires that don't read logs, I guess we're stuck with them until they learn or leave. It's tough on your coworkers when you've new people that "have some experience" but clearly zero skill or intuition.
My impression was he was avoiding outright abusing people. Abusing their ideas as stupid was always going to be on the table for him. (Not justifying it but I think people are fooling themselves if they’re imagining a purely softer, gentler version of him all around.)
Optic is a great tool, not only this auto-generated and updated openapi feature, but also the rest of what it provides within the API ecosystem results of great value for us since linting our documentation, prevents breaking changes and keep track of them.
What you should (and should not) do if your car's brakes fail while driving
What makes you think this would solve the corruption problem? Cops aren't corrupt because they're dumb, they're corrupt because the institutions they are part of allow and reward corruption. Without some mechanism to change that culture, simply adding more members to it will only bolster it. College degrees don't have anything to do with it.

> I bet a lot of college graduates would kill for a pension right about now.

Literally! They might but that doesn't make it a good idea. We don't need more police we need to change the role of police in our society.

What shortage of cops? Come to NYC, you'll see a seemingly infinite number of them parked on sidewalks/in bus lanes/bike lanes, hanging out in the subway on their phones, directing traffic where perfectly good traffic lights exist, harassing street vendors, etc. All while funding is being cut for actual public goods.

There's no shortage of cops. There's a severe problem of misallocated resources. Their overtime budget alone could take every homeless new yorker off the streets, harden the city to climate change and create humane conditions for the influx of migrants from increasingly destabilized parts of the globe.
What does adding extra staff to a late project do?

In cases where the procedures are complicated, which I'd be willing to be this is, you might find that it takes the better part of a decade for new staff to come up to speed at their jobs. And in the mean time the existing staff are going to be spending part of their time doing training.
The problem isn't that family is helping, the problem is that homeownership is unattainable if you're not wealthy and don't have family with the means to help.

I can’t overstate how much I agree with the Ruff team in not being afraid to break things at this point. They have a very promising new tool, but it is very early. They are still very much learning the space and best way to produce their product.

It would be an absolute tragedy if they felt compelled to maintain backwards compatibility for philosophical reasons at this stage, if they felt it constrained the capability or usability of their product.
Part of the problem is that their liability is typically limited to the cost of the inspection. There is not much recourse for a bad inspector or one who fails to find an issue.
They are welcome to do so, but it would probably be cost prohibitive to do that in a highly desirable area. I’m not sure what the hangup is.
I don't want to be overly inflammatory but the core issue here is that Europe very badly wants to be a technocratic police state.

Free speech is a joke in Europe (despite loud denials from Europeans who insist free speech exists in Europe and the restrictions are /necessary/ in the war against misinformation).

The right to protest is slowly getting strangled. How are Europeans OK with protests requiring /permission/ from the police?

Government transparency? Zero to none. You'll get stonewalled or ignored when you ask for information. Don't be so difficult. Just believe the government has the /best intentions/.

Surveillance cameras on every street corner. No store accepts cash money anymore. Your car and phone track and store your every move.

This crackdown on encryption is just another domino about to fall.
I have definitely noticed that fewer and fewer managers are fostering that type of relationship with their team. Seems like managers are doing the same, and hopping from ship to ship.

I've recently seen some managers totally throw folks under the bus -- otherwise very good folks too.

But otherwise I agree. The market has been quick to hire and fire which makes building and retaining talent difficult. The instability of the last several years has really left things in a seemingly universal bad state.
What are you talking about? How does this relate to anything in the discussion? Besides, you were denigrating the intelligence of the average person, as though that's the reason they don't acquire all the skills necessary to have digital privacy.

Ironically, that's a stupid assumption to have. You might be in your own bubble, but I know many very intelligent people who do not have the time or interest in gaining digital privacy. It's not as easy or without compromise as you seem to think.
WhatsApp is launching passkey support on Android
I think it’s bemoaning that it’s necessary, not the actions of the privileged. As a child of the 90s, I grew up with the idea of ‘work hard and you can earn enough wealth to be independent.’ My parents did so fairly easily and planned for a world where I could do the same. The don’t expect any retirement support from me, but also cannot afford to help me get on my feet.

I went through high school, and things seemed to slowly be ‘getting worse’. Then I studied finance in college and realized Greenspan’s ‘New Paradigm’, followed by QE (Keynesian, centrally planned, interventionist low-interest rate regimes) were making a prophet out of Hayek and his ‘Road to Serfdom’. It’s a complaint about financial policies that have kneecapped, and are further destroying, the American ideal of economic self determination.
> you want the 3rd party agency responsible for review to be paid for by the company that wants the review

No, they're saying that the not "urging congress to raise their taxes" take is a straw man.
Python has built in concurrency support, stuff like Mypy and IDE tooling make up for the dynamic typing.

And if that isn't enough, the answer is OCaml, F#, D, C#, Java, Scala, Haskell, Kotlin, C++,... definitely not going from horse to donkey in language features.
> prosecute which bypasses the DA

This is precisely why DAs are elected officials. It's supposed to work this way, in theory. The people vote in the officials who enforce the laws in the manner they wish. In practice, DA elections seem totally ignored.

The problem is lack of voting and civic engagement.

So you've read all the papers, which have an overwhelming agreement, then you ignored their conclusions?

That is in many ways worse than not reading them.

You apparently know that the research all agrees that switching to EVs in California has massive benefits and yet you are still repeating the opposite to argue against things you've taken a dislike to.

It's the EPA's myth #1 on EVs:

Not some radical new claim that you can undermine by complaining that a single source hasn't open sourced their basic maths.
At that point, you need the feds to come in. And boy, aren't they the shining example to depend on

It’s an amendment. The name says it all: it can be amended.

The issue isn’t that the constitution cannot be changed. It’s that people are brainwashed into thinking it shouldn’t change.
"The DOJ has to start actually doing its job and completely dissolving these corrupt police departments and rebuilding them"

Not trivial, considering a substantial percentage of elected officials are dead-set against allowing the DOJ to actually fight this kind of thing. They only approve of law and order when the law and/or order is pointed at very specific types of criminals or protests.

If Tesla refuses to sign a collective agreement with the labor unions I hope they leave the Swedish labor market. Refusing to sign a collective agreement is a completely tone-deaf approach to conducting a business in Sweden.

For instance, Sweden does not have a legal minimum wage - this is all done by collective agreements. Nine out of ten employees work under a collective agreement.
Anecdotally, my parents have offered to help me out with every major cost I've ever faced and living next to me is positively dreadful.
Anyone can send a take down notice to anything for any reason -- the burden of proof is on the creator (and nobody seems to care whether or not you're the copyright holder when you file). In this case, it was probably copyright violations in descriptions and/or photos. Once they remove the offending content, they can go back up.

I'm still waiting for someone to send a take-down notice to ToS's on major platforms. That'll be entertaining.
what did Crassus do similarly?
I used to think these Linus smack-downs were pretty funny. I guess I still kinda do, but I'm not proud of it. These were more appropriate when Linus was an underdog - now he's just being an asshole, or at the very least unprofessional. I've contributed Linux kernel code, thankfully several rungs below anything the God emperor would be looking at - I would have been wrecked by a review like this.

"Higher construction costs"

I'm sure states new immigration stance will help with that.

that's ok I guess the retirees and snow birds could get part time jobs. I'm sure they would do great lifting singles up a roof.
See my comment history for my previous post. The problem isn’t familial help, it’s the policies that made it necessary.
Well in my case, this code review was only two pages and it was only given to people who accepted an interview. So you had about a fifty percent chance of landing the job. Contrast this to the leet code dedication of a couple of years on the side effort...
Institutional investeros investing in long-term projects, here PV, are devidedly not the same category of people investing in NFTs... God, this truely is somewhat pointless.

Summary: You say PV in Finland isn't feasible. People building PV, and profiting from it, disagree. Those people put their money where their mouth is. Same goes for the Netherlands. I'll stop now, if you want the sky to be red and clouds be purple, sure, belive that... I linked to a comprehensive report on solar in Europe elsewhere, all you do is moving goal posts and repeating false claims...

Not that I think you'll read this, but here you go:

Pages for Finland:

37 & 38, 43: Finland will achieve its NCEP tarhets a lot earlier

52: Finland will be a GW solar market in 2025

These reports, they are publoshed annually, turned out to be largely correct since tgey are published. While the IAEA is usually of by almost an order of magnitude, underestimating solar growth, these folks are sometimes a bit too pesimistic. Good thing, I did read one of there reports again, the last one was before Covid...
How to burnout a software engineer

This is just a specific variation on a theme that applies to all of STEM.

The half life of a STEM career in the USA is about 10 years. 10 years after graduation, half those with a STEM degree are no longer doing STEM. Another 10 years and those who remain have decreased by half again.

But once you start digging into all this you will slowly come to realize that the core of the problem is bigger still --- it is actually a cultural phenomenon that applies to American business in general.

American business culture views those who create products as expenses to be restricted and controlled. In contrast, those who *sell* products are viewed as productive assets to be lavishly praised, nurtured and rewarded.

The illogic here is deeply rooted and is fully illustrated by a phrase I heard over and over again down through my career.

"No one gets paid until something gets sold"

This is objectively true --- but no more logically valid than my counter point:

"Nothing gets sold until something gets built"

Bottom Line --- American corporate culture has an inherent bias toward those who sell and against those who create. This applies and is reflected across industries, regardless of the actual product being built and sold. And it has been this way for generations. The only workable way I found to change this was to dropout and start my own business.
How to talk to an LLM (with your voice)
There is a way - file a civil suit. That won't have the possibility of sending people to jail, but does have the possibility of financial damages being awarded that are higher than you'd see in a criminal case.
Wow I had no idea of that one. I actually lived pretty close to there.

Seems like the incidents happened in part because the operators couldn't see in the dark after a power outage, and the emergency torch had been taken by someone to fix their car... :X You can't make this stuff up.
I'm not here to shill for the police, but in my former city, it was not unusual for certain kinds of businesses which had a history of being the source of rowdy behavior to be required by the community board to take certain measures to prevent that. It didn't mean they had to hire former police, but they had to show preventative measures were taken above and beyond state level licenses requirements if the board, which had a right to refuse their liquor license, was fed up with the amount of police activity there.

It's a valid response to say the board should not have had this much power, but the point is that it isn't necessarily a racket.
Eh, might makes right is in one scenario. Poisoning, betrayal, manipulation, propaganda, co-opting often work too. As many ‘strong men’ have learned to their detriment.

Underlying it, those who survive will justify however they want, they’ll be the ones writing the history books.
Literally no one in Sweden receives stock options as a form of compensation. Over 90% of the workforce is unionized. The ones that are not are basically working single employee companies and some tech companies.
It's a real problem, to put it mildly. I've done enough work with electronics that I know I'd have a hard time identifying such a device or something more up to date and I have at least a basic understanding of what it would take to do this. Someone that is unwary doesn't stand a chance.
“Might makes right” seems more like an observation of a particular instance in the feedback loop of building power.

America is for example in a pretty strong position, but maintains power by doing diplomatic stuff. Being in some sense the leader of a big coalition of friendly countries (imagine if we had to force EU countries to accept our bases by violence, it is way cheaper to just be on friendly terms with them and pay a little rent). Being the world’s reserve currency. Setting up and having outsized influence in international organizations.

That sort of stuff requires give-and-take diplomacy, cooperation, and setting up a system of international norms and laws that everyone at least pretends to respect.

Might might make right, but a complex system of rules, conventions, laws, negotiations, reputations and even person-to-person relationships made quite some might. It’s sorta chicken and egg.
We all know it's a good idea to join a union, but the OECD numbers show that we do the opposite: https://stats.oecd.org/Index.aspx?DataSetCode=TUD

I guess things haven't gotten quite bad enough. When things get much worse, we might see an uptick again...
LOL. Yes, the corrupt DOJ is going to suddenly have a moral compass. State issues are state issues. There's zero reason to involve the federal government. Clean up your own state and stay out of others who have voted the right people in.
I’ve done one of these recently, and I ended up using an old raspberry pi 3b. It was less costly than any of the alternatives I could find.
> If people completely stop buying product A and switch to product B then the model should do that as well because the model should try to match reality.

Yeah, but it doesn't and it cannot. Because it's hard to measure if people reallt "switch" and if so, why and what it means to them.
What would then be a more optimal trade-off compared to current implementations, in your opinion?
Lol. I did win this debate. You're being sarcastic but your anger shows. There's a lack of emotional self control from you and that points to the fact that you aren't confident with your answers.

Tap out after writing a looong essay? That's another common strategy for geniuses who want the final word. Spend sooo much energy spilling your thoughts and then running away not wanting to deal with the fallout of the effort spent writing your retort. Why? Because you're insecure about it. Yeah no point in arguing your points if you're scared. I truly am sorry that you're scared. HN shouldn't be a place where people are like that.

You could start by taking a look at the base library that powers NewPipe and Piped called NewPipe Extractor [0][1]. It can extract the information you need from YouTube without using the API, I believe that includes access to the video streams themselves. Otherwise you could try and use Invidious through the developer API [2] although I must admit I have zero idea how good it is.

I think job interviews are subjective and not a bad thing. Some objectively good candidates are not good for certain roles and vice versa. To me, your answer would be the best and would allow you to fit into more roles. You give options for a situation, rather than dogmatic statements like, you must inject that dependency, or the variable names should be done this way. But that is my subjective assessment.
As a new grad who's currrently in the job market I have to say my experience is contrary to this. Pretty much every OA I've received from companies including non-tech companies like big banks are all asking pretty complex stuff such as writing a LRU Cache, Dynamic Progamming, etc. Most of these questions I would have had no idea how to do in the time allocated if I hadn't studied their specific patterns beforehand. Expectations are sky high, and it's only getting worse as time passes on.

I'm sure you're right and some do find bandcamp through them. The really hard part is quantifying that though. Does it generate enough business for six writers? If it does, awesome, and I'm totally wrong.

My guess is the big content initiative was someone's brain child, and once companies get past a certain size, it's very hard to pull the plug on a leader's baby. Until the company changes hand and the next set of leaders want to eat the previous young and put their own babies in there.
We are not talking about a situation where we don't have any knowledge, which brings us right back to my original reply to you.
