Times have been bad for me all of the way and so now everyone I meet looks like they're living in some kind of delusion/trance/bubble. Hopefully bad times for these people will mean good times for me at last.

It's hard for me to imagine how times could get any worse. Maybe some Stalin-like mass purges of intellectuals...

I don't think anyone bakes instruction alignment into their caches since the early 2000s, and adding an extra bit to the branch predictors isn't that big of a deal. It's got to be the first or second stage of their front end right before the decoders.
It's incredible to me how often YouTube is broken on Safari. Like, broken to the point where clicking on a video just doesn't work. Two trillion dollar companies cannot make clicking work. Don't get me started on the constant UI redesigns. They're just rearranging the deck chairs endlessly now.

Without the cheap renewables subsidising their bills germans would be paying even more for their electricity. If they had maintained their nuclear generating capacity + their current (and ever increasing) renewable capacity - electricity in germany would be on the brink of being free and unlimited.

Interestingly enough it seems that there are more and more UX designers than ever yet the UX of so many applications keeps getting worse.

Anecdotal experience/rant: UX designers seem to increase complexity (maybe to justify their position?) of apps, rather than simplifying. And often "common sense" loses in favor of an over engineered solution.

But The Mythical Man Month is about communication/knowledge transfer, just like the linked article and it’s video.

You also said a some regular stuff about teams and schedule pressure that weren’t novel at the time of The Mythical Man Month.

IMO representative democracy isn't a problem, but corporate lobbying is.
>Half a century of operation.

The stability of society (specifically American, specifically California/Caltech/JPL/Pasadena) must also be marveled at. That's 2 or 3 generations of engineers and scientists that were trained well enough to actually get things done. This is a marvel of teaching, technical communication, and societal infrastructure. Notably, NASA/JPL has maintained its prestige and funding for that entire time, as has Caltech.

There are many institutions (Sears), and world superpowers (USSR) from 50 years ago that seemed like they would dominate forever, but are gone.

How would you execute a wealth tax? People having power can avoid it by preventing legislation and after legislation by using loopholes.
Just the watching is indeed a problem. It makes me feel violated. Whether or not I have something to hide, or might get a knock on the door, is a completely separate point.
I've been trying to "learn" the missions more thoroughly by flying them on Orbiter and NASSP, and just the sheer amount and depth of documentation that is accessible today is truly astounding. There's something awe-inspiring about sitting and my computer and looking at the mission plan, only to then not understand the "why" of this particular switch that I'm throwing, to then open a pdf with a "astronaut training booklet" which explains the overview of the thing I'm using, to then open another pdf with the detail technical documentation of it, to then a schematic of the equipment should I at any point (but prob not) ever try building one myself.
jon blow is a great example to bring up. he's extremely talented and focused on his craft, and has been churning for decades, unburdened by family, to produce his work, with very talented engineers contributing (including muratori). in the last twenty years, they have shipped two puzzle games.

i don't say that to suggest it's unimpressive, but rather to point out that adopting his methodology of avoiding anything resembling modern languages and tooling comes at a cost. the cost includes a huge hit to productivity. if everyone built games the way these two suggest, there would be orders of magnitude fewer of games available. if everyone built software the way these two suggest, there would be orders of magnitude less software available. i'm sure they would be fine with that outcome. the rest of the world probably would not.
>Israel tries not to kill civilians

And yet they've killed way more civilians then Hamas has. But that doesn't matter, because it's okay when our side does it?

Rails form helpers really leave a lot to be desired because they’re difficult to customize without jumping through a lot of hoops.

What are you talking about with the bcc thing? Generally you receive someones email address once, and then optionally verify. If you fill the To/Cc/Bcc fields from your address book, everything should be fine. If you insist on typing something yourself and you enter a wrong email address, it just doesn't arrive (or reaches another recipient, depending on the typo).
> the existence of an example online doesn't contribute anything

It sure does, H&M is massive and available all over the world. Them having cheap pants with pockets means that women all over the world can easily access pants with pockets.

If women craved pockets so much then those pants would sell out and they would expand the offering with more kinds.

> And whether Heartbleed was worse than log4shell is mostly philosophical.

Most definitely not. Heartbleed means that as long as your are on the internet they have your certs, full stop. Log4shell required access in both directions (to inject the vulnerable string, then for target machine to load the payload off internet) to do anything.

The sheer fact that you think it is 'philosophical' difference points to you not understanding anything about the topic. log4shell could be trivally prevented by common security practices like "not allowing your apps to freely access anything on internet", heartbleed could not.
> RISC-V is/was vitally important in putting downward pressure on ARM licensing.

Given current laws. I wonder if the world wouldn’t be better off with strong interoperability laws, where ISAs are simply neither copyrightable nor patentable. This would instantly kill ARM of course, but their ISA (well, ISAs) would live on. I love the design of RISC-V, but I find it kind of sick that being forbidden to implement one’s own ARM or x86 core is such a big reason for its success.
I guess that changing the paper displays cost a lot more than people imagine when you include all the backend jobs for distribution.

Being able to change the sign quickly/often for new advertisers might also bring in more money. E.g. you can now sell different advertisements on Friday versus other weekdays, and more specialized Christmas advertisement.
I wanted to enjoy that show but most of the characters personalities map perfectly onto some people I used to work with. I have to wonder if corporate culture is what inspired the foundation for the characters.

There's absolutely no evidence this happened.
I think women are do more analysis than just buying what is being pushed via advertising.

Also, I see women (and men) wearing many different styles every day, so not sure how effective your supposed fashion cabal is. Just dropping the kids off at daycare, there must be at least 4 or 5 distinct looks just amongst the women in their 20s.
I mean, that’s just not true. When the ads targeted kids, they didn’t involve as much sex appeal:

But when they targeted adults, sex appeal was huge.
I'm glad they've added that disclaimer. My mother contracted HIV from donated blood she received during surgery.

I'm sure that testing is much better in the decades since then, and I'm sure that non-zero should be read as infinitesimal in this modern era, but the chances of contracting something may not be non-zero, and if another AIDS-like virus were to come along and it were to take a few years before it became known and detectable, those might be more susceptible to being transmitted through implantation.
Show HN: Nectar, automated meeting prep for modern teams
Hey HN,

Shri and Robin here, cofounders of Nectar.

Planning for productive meetings requires a lot more prepping time than you would first expect which is crucial for alignment and support for your teams.

While working as ICs and later managers we faced multiple different challenges:

1. Remembering what happened throughout the last week in the first place, and reviewing notes, emails or endless Slack threads (as a reader) just to keep up. This gets compounded with the number of reports
2. Being distracted taking notes and keeping record during group meetings
3. Or using up valuable meeting time for listing out last minute talking points

With Nectar we aim to cut meeting prep time down by 90%, and increase its effectiveness by considering all team activity in a given time frame. You get automated summaries of your entire online communication and agenda items for your next meeting.

- We currently support data retrievals from Slack and Zoom, and plan to include more depending on our customers needs
- We’re starting off with internal management as a use case, since that’s our bread and butter BUT are interested to hear about your use case
- You can [schedule](https://calendly.com/run-nectar/15min) demos with us starting next week!

Would love to get the community’s feedback.

People often asked this but there are a few misconceptions. OpenPOWER was not really 'open' in a meaningful way. It was only RISC-V that made OpenPOWER actually push towards more openness but by then it was to late.

OpenSPARC is really only truly open in its 32 bit version. The 64 bit was not open in the same way. Sparc having things like register windows and delay slots also technically didn't have a clear advantage over ARM or MIPS. Also its strong association with Oracle wasn't gone help.

RISC-V was truly open from first principle and did some technical clean up. Additionally, very early, before RISC-V was even a standard, they had already released a bunch of 32-bit cores that could compete with ARM cores, and a bunch of students built it. The ISA was easy to build for, and that helped in education. The university of Berkley got eyes on the project and then quickly the ETH and others jumped on in. So there were multiple open cores both in modern Chisel and SystemVerilog.

They were also clear about trademarks and how to use them once the foundation was established. There was a path forward to evolve it, not a fixed standard. Companies could get involved and help get RISC-V to where they needed it. In the standard, a way to add custom instructions without clashing with any future RISC-V instruction.

OpenSPARC is just a fixed IEEE Standard. There simply wasn't gone be a dynamic Linux like community around OpenSPARC.

What Sun did was amazing, but I think people wanted a fresh start with everything we have learned from OpenSource and OpenHardware over the last 30 years.

Sometimes things just aren't purely technical, sometimes starting something new just builds a community that dynamically drives things forward.
Given recent events, I consider support for Hamas to be on extremely shaky moral ground, and in very poor taste. Still, I don't think that verbal support for Hamas calls for investigation. (Material support? Sure, investigate that.)
Not having the compressed instruction set extension wouldn't make Qualcomm's CPUs not RISC-V. They just wouldn't be compliant with the RVA23 profile.

ICE uses tool to find "derogatory" speech online
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has used a system called Giant Oak Search Technology (GOST) to help the agency scrutinize social media posts, determine if they are “derogatory” to the U.S., and then use that information as part of immigration enforcement, according to a new cache of documents reviewed by 404 Media.
The documents peel back the curtain on a powerful system, both in a technological and a policy sense—how information is processed and used to decide who is allowed to remain in the country and who is not.
“The government should not be using algorithms to scrutinize our social media posts and decide which of us is ‘risky.’ And agencies certainly shouldn't be buying this kind of black box technology in secret without any accountability. DHS needs to explain to the public how its systems determine whether someone is a ‘risk’ or not, and what happens to the people whose online posts are flagged by its algorithms,” Patrick Toomey, Deputy Director of the ACLU's National Security Project, told 404 Media in an email. The documents come from a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit brought by both the ACLU and the ACLU of Northern California. Toomey from the ACLU then shared the documents with 404 Media.
Why the sarcasm? I'm perfectly fine if they go further: Denuvo has been a net positive for PC gaming as far as I'm concerned.

Studies on cherry picked cases have convinced people that piracy is a good thing for games, but the reality is games with 100 million dollars marketing budgets don't need piracy: they need sales.

Sony and co have started treating PC as an actual platform since they can at least eek out a month or two of unaffected sales.

What's falling apart though? Is it really falling apart? Like I said, my feed is identical. I think if you dig into this you'll find it's a completely self-made issue. People leave because they think there's going to be massive changes or they try to prove some political point. Then other people are mad because some people left and start talking about how Twitter is completely changed when it hasn't.
That's actually how I first learned English!
While I'm overall feeling very sorry for the author, I can't help but note the color of the article text which I'm really struggling to see. My vision is not the best, and my display is just terrible, but I don't think it's so bad for just me. So if, after this terrible problem is hopefully resolved, I would humbly suggest fixing this issue.
For bash, if `$HISTCONTROL` is `ignoreboth` or `ignorespace`, commands with a leading space are not added to the history, so you could try that as a workaround.
If you're specifically _not_ looking for react front-end developers, then the on-the-job training for those candidates on the position you're filling _can_ be cost (time) prohibitive in certain orgs to "get up to speed." Likely you should filter those candidates out earlier if that's your case. Sounds like you are, but I'd like to also point out that this strategy has it's own costs.

For example, I would take a react developer with obvious gaps and a strong willingness to learn on my back-end services team over a passable back-end dev who was set in their ways (unwilling/uneager to learn new tech, entrenched opinions stated as fact, etc.)

Naturally, my approach is not a one size fits all situation and a great deal depends on org structure and mentorship opportunities being in place for it to work. The benefit being you avoid monoculture "silos", and have more cross collaboration and transfer opportunities between teams (some may call this "full stack", I wouldn't)

Several high performers on my team are "self-taught", work comfortably across several languages today and can pickup new tech easily. They came in knowing their "one stack" at the time. If they were "bootcampers" or not seems irrelevant and somewhat reductive/offensive.

That said, if the candidate in question shows _no_ understanding of their problem domain, can't reason their way out of a paper bag, and get visibility upset from questions when you try and tease that out, that is a certainly a red flag in my book.

With respect to your example given, however, it could be argued that http details because of the abstractions in place inherent in react, aren't critical domain knowledge for what is essentially a UX dev. If they can ship an experience your users enjoy more than the candidate that can recite the HTTP 1.1 RFC and cannot, then what have you gained in hiring the latter other than maintaining a culture of pedantry?

TL;DR it comes down to how much risk your team is willing to take on, as there's always risk inherent in hiring ANY candidate, including those that don't already check all your boxes in regards to tech know-how. I'm merely stating that by overlooking candidates that don't fit your self-imposed mold, you're likely missing opportunities for rewards that can pay dividends when it does work.
Yu would train it in an RL setting rather than actually use generated images in the train set.

I despise authoritarianism and agree with your concern about our ever-increasing surveillance state.

However, down is not the only direction. The nation has been far more authoritarian in the past; we will be more liberal again in the future. Liberalism is not a spent force, and there is a sizeable constituency which values personal privacy.

I'd just pick a upper-mid brand like JCrew or Bonobos and redo your wardrobe with that. Focus on staples and neutral colors. On most days, I personally wear black t-shirts with different-colored JCrew shorts. A clean high-quality t-shirt tucked into shorts with a belt (and loafers) passes as business casual in my area. Shoes are very important. If you wear nice "church" shoes, it makes the rest of the outfit look intentional no matter what you're wearing haha.
Ah fair enough :) I guess to me the linked article ("RIP to my...") is not a "repost from the Verge, Logitech press-release, [or] covid article" and is a "hands-on technical [article]", if a little on the fluffy side. So I thought you might've enjoyed the article. But, I guess not.

I am also not a fan of Ars's health writer, but I enjoy most of the rest of their content.
Well, it's also possible they read his Tweet and looked at his background and said "this dangerous person really is going to conduct violent acts in this country, we have no choice but to thwart him by seizing all his electronic devices using the most powerful law in the land, even if it de-legitimizes our use of this law for more serious matters." But since that hypothesis is so obviously cartoonish, it's hard to blame folks who look for more rational explanations like "the government is harassing a political opponent" (whether they're right or wrong.)
