My work makes us Delinea (Thycotic) PAM which is single process and blocks all OS calls to check if you have privilege to run/execute a command. Additionally, we have to run CrowdStirke, Netspoke, Windows Defender, and some type of “inventory scanner” app. My work laptop is much more powerful than any of my personal personal computers on paper, but the nannyware slows everything to a halt (64 GB RAM, 12 cores).

It’s very painful to not have local admin rights on a Windows machine if you’re a developer. We can’t even install Docker or make changes to it without “help” from our non-developer IT staff.
Not the author, but I think the idea is to avoid overloading the meaning of 404. They argue 404 should mean the request didn't match a known route, in case the request is recognized but the record itself isn't found you should return a different 4xx code

I kind of get this and wouldn't complain about an API doing this, but I also wouldn't be surprised for `/api/v1/posts/abc-123` to return 404 because the route handler couldn't match the post ID.
Maybe it can be a hardware with markup and support and consulting model. That way there could be many competitors in various regions or different countries and we all use the same collection of open source tools. That would be pretty neat. Unlikely I guess but still worth thinking about how it could work.

That assumes that all third party sites use the user ID, not the username. From my understanding, the way "login with Github" works is by the app getting an OAuth token, then querying a "give me the currently logged in user" API using that token, which then returns an object identical to https://api.github.com/users/rbishop

If the client keys on "login" rather than "id" (this GitHub tutorial, for example, only mentions the former, not the latter: https://docs.github.com/en/apps/creating-github-apps/writing...) and then stores "github user rbishop can access account 123456 on our system", the new owner of the account name would likely be able to hijack the previous owner's 3rd party accounts.
I tend to agree that this stuff looks like small potatoes and they're getting extra scrutiny based on what I saw back when I worked at a (non-Tesla) factory.

Having some billions of dollars of profits hanging over this issue is a good test of value. If the "is AGI" side can use their AI to help their lawyers defeat the much better/numerous army of lawyers of a billion-dollar corporation, and they succeed, then we're really talking about AGI now.
I think they've fixed it now, but it does seem to recognize popular trick questions, like "what weighs more, a ton of feathers or a ton of bricks?". It would answer with the typical explanation about density not mattering, etc.

But, it used to fail on "what weighs more, 3 tons of feathers or 2 tons of bricks?".

So, it seems less about what's a trick, and more about what's a common question --> answer pattern.

This would leave the wolf and the rutabaga alone and the wolf eats the rutabaga. So it’s a fail? It even explains why it would be a fail, but claims it’s not:

wikipedia has a great article on broadcom - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcom

Its history goes back to the 1960's. It is a major semiconductor company that I would say, was part of the ecosystem that made computers and networks possible.

You haven't heard of them because they make too much of everything that makes the fabric of everyday computing.

It's like how you would never really know of the company who made the pipes for your toilet/plumbing.

I don’t know why they have AI in the marketing for this. Tone modeling amps is not new technology and this doesn’t appear to be anything but that in a price conscious package.

If there is any “AI” being used, maybe it’s one step in the capturing process to filter out noise or something else via a slightly different method. Again, not groundbreaking and not worthy of the AI title.

That all said, it’s a cool product that makes amp modes more accessible for regular people. It also highlights why a good clean amp will always be the best option for the home guitarist. It’s easy to layer on top of clean!

As somebody that really dislikes the way the web generally is nowadays I got a chuckle out of this :)

This is a mostly tongue-in-cheek comment.
The biggest issue with every one of these websites: dogs are amazingly size-diverse. They range from a 4lb chihuahua to a 200+lb mastiff. If humans were similarly diverse, we would run from 60lb dwarfs to 3000+lb giants. Poisons are all about the dose, or at least the dose per mass of dog. A Hersey bar that might kill or at least cause suffering for the chihuahua will likely do absolutely nothing to the mastiff. Dogs are also very diverse in health and constitution, from very sensitive purebreds with allergies and strong reactions, to resilient mutts that shrug off most things. So trying to create a website of what is and isn't deadly to "dogs" in general is very difficult.

Maybe a website about poisons for house cats. They range from perhaps 5 to 20 lbs.

> Corbusier ... Plan Voisin

I'm really not sure how I feel about it, and I'd love to hear others' ideas.

On one hand, Paris' commitment to preserving its character is charming, and comes off as a good thing to most people. On the other hand, Le Corbusier proposed Plan Voisin as a solution to the wealthy/poor split in the city. I think the anti-NIMBY crowd around here could get behind that?

No, that's called aphantasia, it's orthogonal to not having an inner monologue (the "voice in your head"), and there are in fact people who effectively hallucinate on demand.

Which I suppose explains a lot of phrases that make little sense if they're only taken symbolically. Or why some people like long scenery descriptions in books - they can literally imagine it. Unfortunately, I'm aphantasic, so I can't.

I found out about Sheril Mathews from a comment on my own Ask HN over the summer. He offers leadership and professional coaching services for engineers - haven't worked with him but had an intro call (ultimately didn't feel the timing or commitment level was right for me). Articles and contact info can be found here [1]

The services may be a fit but can't say for sure, he may be able to point you in the right direction if not. Good coaches are out there but not easy to find and all probably serve a different niche.

Best of luck to you

"Rule #1: DO use plural nouns for collections"

I disagree, as you then have to deal with English pluralization rules to match single objects and collections.

Also database tables should just be singular, things like 'country.id' makes more sense than 'countries.id'.

Also no discussion of versioning?
Yes, and we were also watching the thousands and thousands of companies where these types of conflicts are handled easily by decent people and common sense. Don't confuse the outlier with the silent majority.

That is not "what happens". It is what happened with the Nazis, because the Nazis were never socialists. Its central point was always fascist in nature.

This isn't even a thing that can be honestly debated. It's just an ignorant, shallow point made by college freshmen and wanna-be podcasters who have studied the absolute smallest amount of history possible, and whom find the fact the Nazis are generally placed on the right side of the political spectrum to be inconvenient.

The Nazis were fascists.

Hitler knew what he was doing. He believed that socialist ideals were attractive to the disillusioned populace whose attention and approval the party sought. And he wanted to troll the Left.

But he wasn't a socialist, and did not believe in socialism. Instead they, in his mind, would redefine the word Socialism to fit what he believed it should be, not what it was, or how anyone understands it now, or at the time.

Viereck's interview with Hilter in 23 is fairly clear here, and conducted before the party had national power:

> ‘Why’, I asked Hitler, ‘do you call yourself a National Socialist, since your party program is the very anthesis of that commonly accredited to Socialism?’

> ‘Socialism’, he retorted, putting down his cup of tea, ‘is the science of dealing with the common weal [health or well-being]. Communism is not Socialism. Marxism is not Socialism. The Marxians have stolen the term and confused its meaning. I shall take Socialism away from the Socialist.

> "Socialism is an ancient Aryan, Germanic institution. Our German ancestors held certain lands in common. They cultivated the idea of the common weal. Marxism has no right to disguise itself as socialism. Socialism, unlike Marxism, does not repudiate private property. Unlike Marxism, it involves no negation of personality, and unlike Marxism, it is patriotic.

> "We might have called ourselves the Liberal Party. We chose to call ourselves the National Socialists. We are not internationalists. Our socialism is national. We demand the fulfilment of the just claims of the productive classes by the state on the basis of race solidarity. To us state and race are one."

https://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/2007/sep/17/greatint...

To the OP's point, Nazis called themselves socialists, but weren't. Mentioning the fact Socialist was in their party name is a cheap shot, and both ahistorical and ignorant.

Regarding the author's recommendation against using 404:

The author says it's ambiguous, because it could mean the route is not found, or it could mean the requested item is not found.

Some people use 204 to indicate the latter:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/204

It basically means, "We received and understood your request, but you're not getting a response." And you can infer that it's because the content you requested is not there.

At a previous company, we returned a 200 for anything that was not a true HTTP error on our side, with a dedicated error message in the response for anything else. So, for instance, instead of returning a 403 when the API user provided invalid data, we would return a 200, indicating that we successfully did everything we were supposed to do, but then explained in the response what invalid data needed to be corrected.

I liked that approach. Anything non-200-level meant that we screwed up. And any 200-level response with an error message meant that the user screwed up.
I'm surprised by that as well.

I haven't done this stuff for quite a while, so my memory might be foggy, but the main advantage of Vulcan was that you can control all the CPU locking rather than the API doing it. This allows you to do stuff like prepare on one thread and submit on another, etc.

But that would be negated if you're using an abstraction layer.

Companies confuse their initial product success with general success. "We made this amazing thing, so everything we do is amazing". The logic is flawed but can carry the company a tremendous distance before becoming unsustainable. Google is reaching the early steps of the unsustainable phase, and their initial product success is finally being threatened via AI. Working on an open source library for 9 years and then complaining that the company is changing is ironic.
a lot of financial negatives about California dont really apply to anyone

Despite the top income tax rate being the highest in the country, if you’re already rich, you can just own US Treasuries and earn around 5% for the next 30 years. US treasuries are not taxed at the state or municipal level anywhere, putting California on par with Texas, Florida and all other 0% income tax states, and all states. On $5,000,000 thats $250,000 a year, on $10,000,000 thats $500,000 a year.

Ah but you need the house! Property taxes…. California property taxes are lower than Texas and Florida.

All good points, but I do want to add context for users of this site who don't have any experience with manufacturing or physical trades - the commentary above about manufacturing welding should not be interpreted as welding being a low skill activity.

The same distinction between "manufacturing" welding and "construction" welding should probably just be applied within all types of welding in general. It's all about the application. Welding just sticks two pieces of metal together, so to use glue as an analogy - it can be used to stick macaroni to paper for a primary school activity, or used during surgery to save someone's life. Same action, two wildly different skill levels required for a successful result.

Having spent some time with prototyping shops and custom product manufacturing houses - those welders are insanely talented. There is an wild amount of knowledge required (metallurgy, chemistry, physics, electronics) to be used in practice, and the physical demands (fine motor control, holding pieces or your body under complete control at various angles/positions) should not be underestimated. Couple that with the understanding of the product being produced and how their actions can improve the end design, and you're left with what I tend to see as the closest thing to a wizard as we have in the modern era.

It's like the old saying goes - "Give a man a hammer and everything starts to look like a nail. Give a man a welder and everything starts looking like whatever the hell he wants it to be."

Because video off meetings are entirely pointless and just shouldn't be run. Not to say that turning video on magically makes the meetings have point, but if you are muted, video off, and doing the dishes, you just shouldn't be in that call.

>where one out of every 21 workers were reportedly hurt in 2022.

Yeah, I've worked places where if you got a papercut you had to report it to HR. They had a web portal for it. Had to do it in order to receive a band-aid once.

We were also strictly forbidden from having medical supplies on-prem. No advil, no bandaids, no nothing.

I'd assume those numbers are high because of a similar system in place there.
Doesn’t seem like this is a “push an agenda” title or article. Reads like a nuanced article in a sea of “MASS EXODUS FROM COMMIEFORNIA!!1!” articles.
