Yes (even I did and do), but I thought we were talking about languages that are actually used by more than 10 users.
I know it's early days on this, but compilation speed is the downside to Rust IMO. Having worked in a Rust monorepo, my number one complaint was compilation speed. It made CI/CD more expensive and it could really slow down dev time if we needed to remove the cache (happened sometimes - not cargo's fault, actually it's a docker bug, but still).

Glad to see this progress.
This. I hardly understand Linux but I tentatively switched to xubuntu in 2017. Ever since, I only boot windows once every 3-6 months for some proprietary software.

It's an amazing feeling when your OS isn't insisting left and right on behavior you don't want.
It took me months before it sank in that Nodejs async wasn't really async as I knew it from Elixir -- there's an implicit queue, and no true suspension of the execution flow.

One justification for this was that it is supposed to make it easier to reason. It made it more difficult for me to reason -- maybe single-threaded async reactor is a poor substitute for immutability.

Unhandled promise rejection is an example of a consequence of this design. That's not really a thing in Elixir by design. But in the Nodejs world, people don't even see it as a design flaw. It makes reasoning about reliability much more difficult.
It wasn't the behaviour during the incident that got them suspended, it was the lies afterwards

Thanks for posting this.

Right now, I am grappling with RSI and I haven't been able to program for more than a few days in the past month. I am not even typing this, but using the Voice Access feature of Windows 11 in order to input this. I ordered an ergonomic keyboard (Glove80) and I am waiting for it. I also have an ergonomic mouse and even got an ergonomic chair. But I know that regardless of the case, I won't be able to program. for at least a few months. Until my hand recovers. If it does at all.

I am definitely going to check out this extension. Quick question: does it work on any language or just something like Javascript?
I don't know how to unravel this knot you've tied with out having a lot more questions answered, but your concepts seem a little muddled. Automation and outsourcing jobs will not lead to higher pay here. That much should be obvious.

Be sure to start with an even more meaningless, but somehow click-baity, intro line. Then do whatever it is that linkedin people do to get a see more breakpoint to hide the rest.

Except not even the Android folks are a big Flutter/Dart fans. You won't find them on Android SDK site.

People say it a lot these days. Kill them all. Or drive them to the Sinai desert. Or flatten Gaza.

It's really common, and it's an advocacy for an international crime/or war crimes, not an "political opinion" as many here suggest. Just like advocacy for any other crime would probably not be brushed aside as a "political opinion". "All black women in my city should be raped, because [some felt injustice]."

When advocated for from people in real power, or with a lot of money and influence, or from bosses in companies, it's quite chilling.
I hadn't heard of Steam Remote Play so I googled it and it looks like it's using Steam Link. I tried Steam Link to my Apple TV and it was a terrible experience. Is the Steam Deck going to be a better client than the Apple TV?
I did work at Google between 2014 to 2016. It was ok. I enjoyed my time there (about as much as I enjoyed other jobs I had).

> I have friends in all the big tech companies and I don't think any of them is fundamentally better.

Amazon had a reputation for working their software people pretty hard. Not sure if that's still the case.
Lots of languages, like Python, started off as random toy projects.
Corporate policy that implements regulations would be my guess. Or, in this case, does not.

Other countries are far more into preemptive enforcement of regulations than the USA, but even there things tends to only get better before they get worse. Tesla Grünheide has already racked up at least one amputation, and that's a factory, not a place where they invent new kinds of rockets.
the first option is the best imo by far. So clean. I've seen nontechnical people experimenting with those, playing and having fun seeing who has the username "banana" etc
For US readers - replace comma with dot, Germans (and most other europeans) use floats with comma.
Haha, well, it depends on who you talk to. Many of them drive results, like weight loss, fitness, or help with digestive tract conditions with loads of clients. You cannot generalize to everyone, there are good plans, and terrible ones. The goal is to make something individualized that a client is actually going to follow (e.g. familiar meals) but also helps accomplish the goal (losing weight). If you copy/paste or randomly generate it that won't work!
Funnily, isn't it what happens with "disruptor" companies like Uber and Airbnb? first they revolutionize the taxi/hotel market, then they slowly become what they were supposed to revolutionize
Best wishes to Woz.

He is one of very few people I genuinely admire and look up to. So much unlike the current crop of leaders-a*holes (like Musk, SBF, and a bunch of other fraudsters not even worth mentioning that were so in vogue just a couple of years ago).

Apart from his impressive technical achievements (and they are impressive, they are his, and they are worth learning about!), his personality and style are something to be admired.
I don't even have to click this link to know it's going to be the Internet Historian video.
You can short Google.
> If you do write tests, all the type errors get caught pretty immediately anyway, so I just don't see the benefit.

That's a pretty big if, though. You will never catch me in my typed backyard, writing tests that say: if typeof(arg) =! string then return error("Not a string!")

An additional problem of course is that solutions that assume extra work from people, tend to be brittle ones (also thinking about "manual backups" here) aka. those tests will end not being written at all.
go about 2:14 into that video. also outside of this argument, that is really cool either way. thanks for sending!
Not sure exactly which point you're refuting, but for a long time Vikings and Danes were synonymous, as preserved in terms like Danegeld or Danelaw.

If spending that time causes you to lose your job then yes. I can only see that for addicts really. I guess you could be addicted to that pursuit though in a negative way. I wonder how Richard Thaler would see it. In that sense it probably is the same reward pathway in the brain. Interesting possibly worth a phd.
Thanks, this looks great. I'll read through these and add this info in my next update. :)
Get out of the apartment. Join a sports club. Go to tech/topic MeetUps in your city. Attend events put on by your local Chamber of Commerce. I think the key is trying to put yourself in front of as many people as possible. Make yourself known. This is just a start anyway.
That's exactly what it sounds like. From the article:

> Four employees said he sometimes played with a novelty flamethrower and discouraged workers from wearing safety yellow because he dislikes bright colors.
One of my more cherished scraps of notes dates from the 90s, when I tried (and miserably failed) to invent something much like Rust.

I've been waiting a long time for a language that's fast, safe and allows me to dabble in functional-style programming.
It can be, but not exclusively. Sometimes it's a toy, sometimes it's therapy. What's the difference between playing a level over 100 times until you beat the boss vs playing a rift 100 times until you get it right?
It works better in some languages rather than others. Python and JavaScript are the best supported. I have been working on making the situation better with go. But I demoed it with JavaScript because JavaScript is the most understandable to the largest part of my audience.

Realistically half of the way to program with voice is syntax. One of the really cool parts with the voice bindings is that the voice binding for making a function is the same in every language. I am honestly quite terrible with Python. However, when I know that the default command to make a function is funky, I can just step right in there and make it work.

You must crawl before you can walk. You must walk before you can run. You must run before you can fly. Welcome to the Crawling Phase.
This would be a hard no from me. I cannot stand having to switch style when working on the same codebase or even in the same company.

codestyle enforcement via pre-commit hooks or CI build failure is the way to go. Trying to adpat to codestyle is a distraction. All distractions should be removed when coding.
Yep, I finally made the cut after they by default hijack your filesystem to onedrive. They can literally delete offline files.

I was utterly shocked to find Linux Desktop has more uptime than Windows. Windows forced updates caused so many issues dealing with autosaves, I was spending like 5-10 minutes per day reopening all my programs for work.

Those random linux annoyances you need the terminal for? I had like 1 or 2 of them during month 1, solved faster than a single Forced Windows Reboot. Fedora been flawless 5 months later.

The only terminal work I do is opening ports for my kid's games. It really is the year of the Linux Desktop. Its utterly shocking to me I'm saying it, I was a hater for so long.
Two of the examples of injuries sustained by workers given in the article sound like a lack of awareness of one’s personal safety was a major contributing factor in the accidents… Specifically, sitting on an unsecured load on a vehicle to hold it down, and being in close proximity to a rocket engine undergoing pressure testing.

I’m sure the lack of a culture of safety and availability of equipment bears some of the blame, but some responsibility has to rest with the individual to say “no, I don’t think it’s a good idea to put my head in there”.
Writing the same CRUD component for the n+1th page, that is not at all fundamentally different than all the rest, is very different than, say, a compiler/render engine, etc. There are days when my only contribution is a single, slightly modified line of code.
Thanks, I wasn't expecting this comment. You made me lol and I was feeling down.
Crystal, V-Lang, Futhark, Mojo are also targeted to the C and C++ space, and aren't scripting languages.
This is great, but Dall.E still has a long way to go before reaching midjourney standards and I'm curious to see how they can pull that off.
No more trivial than any other method. Once you have the plaintext, you can send copies to whoever you want, by whatever means you want.

It's just a hype phase. Types are cool, but in the past few years they seem to be the panacea for all problems, by inexperienced engineers that have got their first taste of Rust and Typescript. As if writing in Typescript would produce less buggy, more stable or more maintainable applications than using Elixir.

I'll say types are cool again before I get routed by angry static typing zealots.
Though it only applies to some mathematical systems.

Some are simple enough to be decidable.
This is a problem with workplace culture and corresponds to equally poor culture in the other companies Musk controls.

He's moving fast and breaking things, namely people, be it his customers or employees.

But no problem: pay a fine, roll out another phalanx of lawyers and there is little real cost. If CEOs were prosecuted for negligent homicide the number of preventable workplace and product deaths would surely drop to zero.
During those days I was quite happy with Turbo Pascal and Turbo Vision,...

At least Pascal syntax is fashionable again, across all newer languages.
> You cannot have the same outcome

you aren't arguing seriously. reread what I said. You're replying as though I said the complete opposite of what I actually said.
To be fair the use-cases in Apple's Vision Pro release were equally misguided. Like the dystopic one where the father has this gigantic hockey mask on his face when asking his kid to blow out the birthday candles. Or the girl packing her clothes in a bag while CASUALLY wearing the face torture device so she conveniently can then receive a video call that she just has to take right then in video mode.
It has its ups and downs. Yes bureaucracy can be annoying, but. Thing is, that with such a huge company the teams and cultures are so different that it doesn't really make sense to talk about Google culture as a whole.

Having OpenAI on your resume will definitely open a lot of doors. It's also a spectacular feeling to be at the forefront of technological shifts.
I had the same issue and may have posted about it, but for me it took a whole year while it gradually got better after accepting that it was mental (and only then after a doctor did a whole batter of tests and actually investigated the issue, and came up with nothing).
Not here defending SpaceX, cannot speak for some of the specific cases like the individual who was sitting on top of a truck to hold a load down. What I don't like though is the lack of real comparison. It reads more like a hit piece against spacex with all the specific examples of cases that tug at the heart. Would like to see some better comparison, I don't know how realistic the space industry average is. How many companies are in the space industry.

The BLS total recordable cases for all US report in 2022 (cases involving days away from work and other) is 2.7 per 100. Would have liked the article to dive more into the data details instead of the specific cases. Too easy to focus on specific cases and ignore what the data means. I am not sure if comparing this to other space industry companies is fair. I have no idea who is included but are the engineers on a team included in these worker counts? So my best comparison is the total rate listed by BLS which is 2.7/100.
Sure but for these companies "did some Elixir in a weekend project" doesn't count as experience.
Dvorak helps with some of these. At least it's better than querty for accuracy.

True “hackers” don’t give a fuck about startups. Hackers are interested in how things work and how they can be exploited to do things or grant access to forbidden data. Real hackers back in the late 90s early 00s casually did things that would make a lot of today’s “hackers” blanche in the face and wet themselves at the thought of computer crime, or at least grope around for a downvote button. It was a thrilling era for freaks and geeks. Ever found yourself scrolling down a stolen CSV full of credit card numbers and full billing info? It’s like snorting a line of coke. As a teen I once stole $22k, spent several years looking over my shoulder expecting to be shot or cuffed.

At some point the term “hacker” was co-opted to mean anyone writing code. These Silicon Valley tech entrepreneurs aren’t really “hackers”: they’re businessmen with some software engineering skills. But that doesn’t sound nearly as edgy or cool as calling yourself a hacker.
Just flush the buffers more frequently and problem solved. The brain-finger output is never the bottleneck, as the brain part itself takes a lot of time before outputting anything.
For a very long time there has been no viable alternative in the strictly-no-GC space. Every new systems-adjacent language concluded "GC is fine for 99% of programs" (which is true), and then excluded themselves from the no-GC niche. Rust almost did the same thing — early design assumed per-thread GC.

As some who worked there for 4.5 years, this is an accurate description of the work culture at SpaceX. You sacrifice safety for speed. As a young person it’s an opportunity to take on a lot responsibilities, but at that point in your life you don’t have the fortitude to tell Elon, who does push the agenda directly to personnel, to say you do not deem this task safe/smart/responsible.
Gwynn is a sly leader that tries to balance out Elon and non-Elon agendas, but will capitulate to Elon on a regular basis. You definitely do get fired for delaying any Elon focused project, regardless of the reason, if you’re annoying enough or easily replaceable. If you want to go toe to toe with Elon you better be the most productive person, with a good track record, have a rare skill set or knowledge, and be willing to risk your career.
Its a balance. Thats why its important to have someone on the job site watching and noting issues for correction. Workers do not always think about their safety but want to get the job done as quickly and easily as possible, even if that puts their own lives as risk.
Are those schools privately or publicly funded?
> As a shareholder, I'm curious why others aren't more furious to hear that this is how things are run at Google.

Because the way things are run at Google now are all FOR SHAREHOLDERS and for maximum value extraction with maximum stock buybacks.

Hacker culture and non-standard corporate leadership is always undesireable and PUNISHED by the shareholding class. Oracle/IBM type business leadership is familiar and rewarded.

This state of matters is the default for corporate America and Google was special because it managed to not be that for so long - until shareholders finally managed to bring it under control into the operating mode they understand.

There's a reason why modern corporate america is eating its own economic future and is becomming brittle to attacks from China.

This is unfortunately inevitable; CPUs are just so much easier to benchmark in a broadly useful way. And the extreme leakiness of geekbench is helpful (I suspect Apple sees this as a feature; most recent Apple chip iterations have leaked on geekbench)
Glad it worked out for you. But I have to ask: What if it wasn't mental and was a symptom of a deeper issue in the body that needs diagnosis?

I mean when should you bet on the pain being a mental issue? My worry is that if I bet wrongly it could have dire outcomes later.
The thing is that the bad things are usually failures of management, the good things are feats of engineering. Elon Musk is despite the title he bestowed upon himself, not a rocket scientist. He's an ideas guy at worst and an activist executive at best.

That the first three Tesla models spell out "S3X" is entirely on him. That they're fairly decent electrical cars is not. That there are superchargers everywhere is on him. That they work isn't. Based on his own statements, his public actions and credible allegations against him, workplace safety is not something he has any interest in and is willing to sacrifice when it inconveniences him, even aesthetically. He wants to move fast and break things, including manufacturing workers.

If you really think that someone who spent more time in his career networking, giving interviews, schmoozing and being CEO and representitive figurehead of multiple companies at the same time is also personally responsible for the engineering achievements of even one of those companies, you're delusional. It is however fairly easy in that kind of position to get in the way of good or important things.

This is where the industry in-jokes about clueless managers and "pointy-haired bosses" came from as well as the design advise to always include one glaring mistake because managers (or clients) want to feel like they contributed something and giving them an easy error to catch is safer than risking "actual input" from them. I don't know if it's the lies we tell ourselves because we want to be entrepreneurs without sacrificing our craftsmanship or the mythological narratives that drive the ever-increasing tech bubble, but somewhere along the way some of us have started getting high on our own supply and started to believe that people like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos or Steve Jobs are actual geniuses (I think it started with Steve Jobs) rather than just very successful sales people with some broad baseline technical understanding that is enough to judge some technical decisions but not enough to make them alone.
