All of my Pis have shat the bed after 3-5 years and had to be reimaged. I assume it's a combination of power outages + SD card lifetimes
Great.

In 20 years when my anti-DNA-virus scans for Zombie Viruses, it will have to check for thousands of executables.
I'm not sure how well "ruthless market forces" are allowed to operate in software. You definitely get some disrupters but for the most part I think a lack of competition is part of the problem.

Microsoft Teams is one of the most buggy, unreliable pieces of software I know, but it's still the market leader in terms of share because of Microsoft's near monopoly of the office suite software world.
I applied for a US visa about a decade ago and was faced with the question (it literally blew my mind, I probably still have a screenshot of it somewhere) and this year my SO was filling this electronic visa and he faced something similar afair...
The same reason you no longer see artist spaces or other hubs of creative activity: real estate prices.

Cheap commercial real estate is really hard to find. It's no longer viable to get a little warehouse on the edge of town and turn it into something cool.

I am on the edge of Gen Z (26 years old now). I didn't have this in high school, but know people who did and would have been fine with it.

Our parents are more comfortable with us drinking and having sex than prior generations of parents.

And we drink less, take fewer drugs, and have less sex as a generation, so there is less for parents to object to in the first place. Anecdotally, I didn't hang out in unknown places or late at night. Many didn't see the need to learn to drive, simply because we were fine with our parents driving us everywhere.

I would have been fine with this simply because as I did none of those things at all and my parents are not overbearing, so I would have nothing to lose from being tracked.
On the other hand, you could say that 435 is too few, because they represent a lot more voters these days than they used to. Can they represent them without being able to hear them out?

In 1900 Congress had 357 representatives for a population of 76 million.

Today Congress has 435 representatives for a population of 331 million.
The "go" signal in traffic lights in Japan is 青い (あおい) "aoi".

That adjective in Japanese means both blue and green. The Japanese language didn't have a widely-adopted word for just "green" - 緑 (みどり) "midori" - until after WWII.

Green apples or vegetables are still "aoi", for example. I lived in Japan for four years and never saw a blue traffic light.
> I wouldn't worry too much about post-quantum algorithms for any production code in the next couple of years (decades?) myself.

For data in transit that's probably fine, but for data at rest, you have to consider how long that data might remain at rest. If you have 30 year old encrypted data that is now breakable, is that a problem? It depends on the use case.

Also keep in mind that any data in transit could be tapped and saved and become data at rest.

So really you have to ask yourself, is it critical that this data remain encrypted in 20 years?
You can already use postgres with Slonik.

Reminded me of this Onion headline:

"‘The Onion’ Stands With Israel Because It Seems Like You Get In Less Trouble For That":

https://www.theonion.com/the-onion-stands-with-israel-becaus...
Which is exactly what the article is about ;) (Well, one example of an early society that didn't distinguish between green a blue.)
I don’t think anyone thinks this reasonably sets a precedent.

The only thing it did precedent wise is reinforce the precedent of not no showing to you’re own defense if you don’t want to have a bad time.

The last paragraph he’s made is just fake news. He likely could have had it easily thrown out if there was any attempt to do so. Based on the articles quote about him telling another agency to shove their fines up their ass the gentleman seems like the kind of individual who thinks the law and government power doesn’t apply to him, and is always incensed to find out it actually does
As far as I can tell from Wiktionary (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E7%B7%91#Japanese), though I don't speak Japanese, the Japanese word midori has had the meaning "bud" or "sprout", but the Chinese words written with the same character don't. Spelling and word identity are distinct. This confuses me sometimes when looking up Japanese words.

I don't think it's a given that LLM-driven coding is a negative for code quality and performance. In my experience coding with ChatGPT, it often reminds me to think about error handling, edge cases, and performance issues.

It also over-prioritizes readability if anything, using descriptive variable names and documenting every line with a comment. It's maybe not as good as the best engineers at considering all these factors, but I'd say it's better than the average developer, and may be better than the best engineer too when that engineer is tired and in a hurry.
Right around the same age, maybe a year or two older.

Your parents most likely watched the news at 6 and 10, it wasn't long after this news became a 24 hour thing for almost everyone. Then a personal thing as you were getting news on a device on your body at all hours.

Toss in a little 9/11 of America getting attacked, and between the two we've created a culture that is a lot more afraid.

Just so I understand you correctly, are you saying that it's okay for freedom fighters to displace a civilian population at gunpoint, as long as it's the other side who started the conflict?

Because by the time the 3.5s came out, "floppy" had become a word meaning "removable" instead of "bendy" - the alternative being "hard disks" which were fixed storage (internal or external).
It's worth noting that practitioners of western medicine have been scoffing at naturopathic doctors for decades over their focus on the role of C. albicans in some chronic, systemic disorders that are difficult to diagnose and treat. The standard wisdom was (and largely still is) that everyone has candida and it is only medically relevant in severely immunocompromised individuals.

It is nice to see that researchers are starting to look more deeply into the fungal component of the microbiome and peripheral effects that fungi can have around the body beyond the classically studied and treated acute fungal infections. Although populations are less stable and are in smaller number than the bacteria and viruses, we carry an incredible load of these organisms in our bodies and they are constantly interacting with our microbiome and immune system:

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanmic/article/PIIS2666-5...

"Dysbiosis (ie, an imbalance in the composition of the microbial community, which includes loss of symbionts, outgrowth of pathobionts or opportunists, and disturbed inter-microbial competition and microbial diversity) of the gut mycobiota has been implicated in a number of diseases, spanning autoimmune, metabolic, and neurological disorders, and cancers. Colonisation and growth of opportunistic fungal pathogens in the gut can induce dysregulated host immune responses thereby influencing the disease course. In addition, gut fungi—particularly Candida spp—sophistically influence the assembly and function of the gut bacterial microbiome (another cardinal regulator of host physiology), through cellular contact, competition or collaboration for available nutrients, production of secondary metabolites and antimicrobial peptides, and physiochemical changes to the gut niche."
> I AM a New Yorker and I do know Florida and Texas. You picked a very poor example.

No, you clearly missed my point entirely.

I'm saying that's the same level of geographic knowledge of usual examples of e.g. Germans being more knowledgeable about European countries, so why aren't Americans more knowledgeable about South America? The answer is that there's a lot more to be aware of in America in the first place. America is the size of Europe just on its own. We know plenty of geography in absolute terms, but for us a lot more of it happens to be within our own borders.

Most people in the world don't know about the Darian Gap. You think Brazilians or Argentines all learn about it or something? It's a relatively local thing, and that's fine.

You're claiming that Americans are especially ignorant of world geography compared to other countries. That's just not the case.

In any case, hopefully by now you've learned that calling other people ignorant never goes down well.

Y'all probably know this, but exercise caution analyzing studies regarding new, tenuous relationships to health topics. Doubly so if the topic is winning current funding popularity contests. A particularly common mental trap is taking something that has a decent chance of being true (gut microflora affect health) and extrapolating that to something with much weaker evidence (this particular set of unstudied gut microflora peddled by somebody with financial motive to deceive me will improve my personal health situation), and applying a layman's understanding of novel research doesn't help.

The beta-amyloid connection to Alzheimer's has issues (outright fraud among them), and the opposing viewpoint (that fermented foods, especially those with live active cultures (though admittedly not studying this variant specifically AFAIK), help resist AD or decrease symptoms after onset) has decent supporting literature as well.
It's worth mentioning that as a company, I'd be much more inclined to listen to people with real names, faces, and reputations rather than anonymous internet profiles when an issue comes about regarding "Did I do a socially unacceptable thing?"

Grappling with others in society does seem like a losing battle for those who support actions that society deems as socially unacceptable
It may be worth considering that the market is not for messaging and workspaces, but mainly for integrated business communications systems. If the integration is more valuable to customers than Slack or Zoom's smooth operation, Teams is going to win out.
Yes it's difficult. I think we should have a pretty high bar for evidence required to decide that this idea is impossible.

Because once you decide that it's impossible, then there will be no more evidence collected.

I would like to see a wealth tax passed and then evaded and then a follow up to stop the gaps etc. A few cycles of this before deciding it can never be done. I think this is a multi decade effort that is important for the future of all societies.
Was the origin of 'NT' in 'Windows NT' really New Technology? Some suggest that the name might have originated from the Intel i860 CPU. Originally, NT was targeted at the Intel i860 CPU, codenamed N10 (or "N-Ten"). Dave Cutler's put to rest that it was 'New Technology' https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=2ZCM44xPTR831MeR&t=4233&v=x...

I question how much foot traffic Costco's gas station generate.

Regular gas stations have matched the time it takes to fill up gas with the time it takes to get in and out of the convenience store. A 20-30 minute typical shopping round in a Costco doesn't match up with a 4-5 minute gas fill.

It does incidentally match up with an EV charge up.
That happens too but I think the underlying reasons are simpler.

npm workspaces plus Wireit works far better than Lerna, in my experience.

https://github.com/google/wireit

Wireit's ability to specify actual script dependencies, do caching (and on Github actions), and its long-running service script support make it much more useful and comprehensive than Lerna.

I agree that this should be built into npm. There's an RRFC for it here: https://github.com/npm/rfcs/issues/706
Your entire stance is no true Scotsman with ad hominem. You realize almost every YC company operates in the way I described until they become entrenched in their domain, right? Do you think pre PMF companies are bickering about unit test coverage? If they are, they’ll fail
Oh yeeess. This is sexy.
It seems like most people have given up on the idea of community, sharing, and collective action, and prefer to take pills or other substances against the resulting depression/anxiety/loneliness.

Many comments here confirm this attitude, where what they see in spaces is reduced to "shared access to tools". Nobody wants to put in the effort just to have the majority be leeches.
Incorrect. There should not even _be_ billionaires. It's _long past_ time to tax billionaires. At this point, it may not even be possible.
The GP says that nobody would use actually thicker glass, they'd use two panes of thin glass instead. Their reply was a bit confusingly worded, I think you're both hostilely agreeing with each other.

> data from NASA satellites has revealed a counterintuitive source for much of this new foliage: China and India.

The totally unnecessary framing with "counterintuitive" here reveals much about the epistemological crisis of the West. Poor, developing countries are only allowed to care about the environment insofar as it kneecaps their development and economic growth.
It is in fact for many people a solid argument for a wealth tax.

My hot take is that if the Forbes 500 ranking was determined based on verified taxable income and personal taxes paid to the country of primary residence - instead of arbitrary self reported income and self-appraised of property valuations - a lot of stuff would work itself out naturally.

That's the thing with tools like this. Eventually whoever you one-upped just incorporates your features and now they have the edge again - your new features and their greater experience.
> It will be prices or rates.

If rates break, this problem will come back up again in the near future exactly as it is now or even worse. Inflation and everything else in the economy would create more uncertainty which causes even more problems for housing prices.

You absolutely made the right choice. You needed a place to live, and didn't want to continue setting your money on fire paying rent.

The best time to buy is as soon as you can. High, low, whatever, it makes no difference in the long run. In that long run, you've bought a house you chose, are not throwing away money, and will eventually make back any money you lost buying high.

I have a feeling all the people giving advice to not buy in climate X at any given time are only saying so to feel better that they currently can't.
I'm glad you agree that this settlement is unjust then!

Oh so that's why upgrading from yarn 1 to yarn 4 was so easy. It's using the "normal" install strategy into node_modules though.
They cost money.

Humans are only so charitable. At some point the cost of fixing what is broken in a hacker space is contrasted against a car repair (or something) and the hacker space looses.

This is compounded by the fact that the people who can responsibly use a hacker space usually own the tools or can get them cheap. Those who really want the hacker space have no clue that their incorrect use of the tool will destroy it.

I am amazed that any publicly available hacker spaces survived the first week.

I ran a hacker space in a school at my last employer. They never had a clue how much time and money went into the hacker space. When I left they asked if I wanted the stuff. They could not understand that two weeks after I left it was all broken, and had no value.
Many women would disagree with the very last point.

Thanks for this (paywall and archive were acting up). The people I know who use Life360 definitely skew towards the Sky Is Falling mindset, so that puts the survey in context. Life360's income depends on that mindset.

Honestly, I think so much of the attitudes towards tracking apps has to do with how they're used/abused. I don't have a stalker nor crazy authoritarian parents, but I do have a nosy family member that I don't share my Find My location with. I will look up my kids' location if they're traveling, to make sure they've arrived safely. That's pretty much it.

There probably isn't. You'll see a crackdown on cryptocurrencies soon enough, particularly for energy use. That's already begun.
Depends what stage of flight they were in. The engines will shut off as the extinguishing system is activated, so if they were shortly after takeoff, they might not have enough time or enough energy to do an emergency landing back at the airport.
Sometimes I flip on obvious intreview questions while solving same problems during the flow of programming almost instinctively.
Honestly, I find it very helpful to share my location with my family and friends. As long as you don't have overbearing or controlling parents, I like to be aware of where people are and for them to be aware of where I am.
How is not allowing food, water, and aid into Gaza not Israel doing those things? How is the indiscriminate bombings of Gaza not any of those things? You are just denying reality to suit your point.

That’s their land? Are you kidding? The entirety of what is called Israel now is their land, along with fellow Jews. Do you think people haven’t read the history of the area? To even say that shows an incredible ignorance of the history of the area.

As to your last point, Israel controls what goes in Gaza. They limit the amount of concrete so they can’t build, for example. They control water, Palestinians have to get a permit to build water infrastructure from the Israeli government. They rarely grant them. Rain catchers set up by Palestinians are destroyed by the IDF or settlers. Not to mention, anything they do actually build ends up bombed by the Israelis. To say they don’t like to build things is, once again, an incredible display of ignorance.

In fact, since your whole response is filled with such absurdly one sided takes that ignore reality, I have to assume you are trolling.

Ask HN: Software developers, what are your top frustrations at work?
I really miss working slower and towards a smaller goal of creating value with quality.

The amount of code my team churns out is high but the thought around code as a liability is low.

I miss the surgical like precision work where the team comes together and reaches consensus and do their absolute best to prepare, execute and maintain.

What are you missing?
Fascism is not communism, it isn't opposed to capitalism and frequently integrates it. If I refuse jewish customers because I fear reprisal if I accept them, is that capitalism or fascism?
This argument falls over as soon as you recognize it's not engaged in the discourse it is criticizing, but "working the ref," and going upstream to destroy the discourse itself instead.

While speech is not violence, political action outside of it to suppress it is necessarily bringing to bear the upstream providers local monopoly on force and ultimately the state's monopoloy violence on speech. It demoralizes violence by using it in tiny increments, and then affects shock when it escalates.

This style of argument needs more of the ridicule it earns. In any conversation, the parties are free to walk away, but when one returns with a bunch of their friends to make sure the conversation doesn't continue, it is no longer a conversation.
Someone Like You is a favourite. Everybody jinks..
They (and their 8" and 5¼" predecessors) were called floppy disks because of the disc of storage media within the outer casing, not because of the casing which was not particularly floppy for the 8” and 5¼” versions, and rather rigid for the 3½” version.
I’m not stuck on Yarn 1, I’ve chosen to keep using it because it’s the best tool for my usage. I tried Yarn 2 and found it unsuitable, because:

- it patches packages to work with its PnP system

- even if you opt out of PnP

- in ways that are opaque for me as a user

- and in ways that break usage, eg it broke a beta version of TypeScript because the patch it wanted to apply wasn’t available for the beta

I’m sure the PnP feature is brilliant, but I don’t want to use it and I don’t want its behavior to be applied when I don’t use it. So Yarn 2+ is not an option for me. And since Yarn 1 is still supported, and meets my needs well, I continue to use it by choice.
Nor how fascism took root.
In a worst-case scenario, your plane becomes a glider (see some famous fuel-starvation incidents which result in flare-out).
