Yes, securing branches is very important, much like git-hooks if you are serious about the Git flow.

How do you specifically investigate the history with rebase and 10+ developers?
Do you manually look into commits on the branch, or go by a single file history, or look at merge/pull requests?

Personally, I prefer looking at the context of a file change within a merge/pull request. The specific merged/pull request can be read from the merge commits. And in case a specific file history is of interest, I can backtrack from that file's associated commits.
Curious, what's the rule for USCG and transponders?

USCG is part of DHS and considered a military branch (despite not being in DoD alongside the other military branches and having a primarily law-enforcement mission).
This is very cool! I built a tool similar to this, but for elementary school, classroom placements, and people always ask me if I can modify it for wedding seating!

One question/comment. As you already know, finding the absolute mathematically, optimal solution is hard, if not impossible in a reasonable amount of time, but people don’t care, they just want good enough. Found with classroom placements is that people can put in all the information, get an answer that is very close to optimal (mathematically), And then take one look at it, and know something is off, because you can’t actually model every aspect of the real world. so what I started doing giving good solutions that are pretty different from each other. Teachers can usually take a look for 30 seconds or less and decide that one of them is better than the other. Do you have the ability to do this on your tool? To randomly shuffle and optimize from there?
Ha ha another student of fravia and +orc?
Useful comment. Unfortunately M or MUMPS is still in active use at EPIC, etc. Far too many good grads of midwest schools get sucked into working for EPIC or the insurance mines in Des Moines, Omaha, etc. UW Madison, UIUC, and Michigan are way too good of schools to be sending their grads to work on medical records or insurance.
Of course if a snappier UI came "for free" nobody would be mad about it. But how many people would actually switch chat apps because of it? Discord and Slack are valued at $15b and $27b respectively; if you could get people to switch to a more efficient program written in native code, you'd become extremely wealthy.

Why wouldn't they work well as wells?

They wouldn't be optimal ventilation shafts, but they'd be hidden, and apparently generally sufficient.
One of the few FAANG/MAGMA companies I've applied to repeatedly and never heard back. I may not be tailoring my experience to match their culture slides correctly.
This seems very similar to how the cinematic platformer Another World (1991, also known as Out of This World) was doing its elaborate full screen animation sequences, although the animations were rotoscoped rather than generated by an automatic encoder.
Show HN: Podcast RSS Generator
An open source audio/video podcast RSS Feed generator that can run in GitHub Actions (or any other CI) with content hosted on any static service (e.g. S3/GCS/R2).
Oh yes, nitrous oxide for example lets me surface and approach traumatic events without over-whelming anxiety that blocks the memory out. I've done years of talk therapy without drugs and the problem is that it's hard to let go of my ego personality when I'm talking to another person and it also takes a long time to get a therapist up to speed about what is going on with me internally, because I don't often even know. I did MDMA therapy with an alternative/underground therapist in the 90's and didn't get much out of it because it felt like the experience conformed to her expectations. I didn't feel free to let my mind wander.

I'm not knocking dialog-type therapy or psychedelic therapy, but maybe I'm built different and as a computer programmer figured out how to use these drugs to debug myself.
Or, more aptly put, AI stands for Absent Intelligence.
and I felt like a rebel just using vga x mode.
I'd be interested in analyzing ATC transcripts to quantify the frequency of communication errors like that in day-to-day operations. Express permission, followed by an explicit (and matching) read-back, to enter a runway should be easy to identify (and the opposite as well). I see liveatc.net has audio archives, and tailstrike.com has transcripts of select accidents.
IME yes, yes it is. I usually tell people running a k8s cluster is similar to running your own "cloud". If you want to just deploy an EC2 instance you just tell AWS you want an EC2 instance and you are done (mostly). You don't have to worry about if the hardware under the EC2 VM has enough resources, you do have to worry about that with k8s though. If you want to lock down the EC2 VM to have certain permissions you use AWS IAM, with k8s you have to use cluster roles and cluster role bindings. You can apply these 2 examples to many other things in k8s vs "cloud" provider, Ingress, persistent volumes, etc.
Yes? First job I just found on a company website. Second as well, but I did talk to the recruiter and connect with them through LinkedIn in the process.

Third job was entirely through LinkedIn. found the job post there, found an old contact from college through there who gave me a referral, introduced to the recruiter through LinkedIn.

4th job is still up in the air, but I was approached for freelance work via LinkedIn in the meantime.

----

You definitely don't need to play the networing game to get a job, especially not if you're in tech. But having a publicly viewable resume sitting there and an old contact book of information (which is less intimate than asking for a number or email) was valuable enough for the $0 I directly paid for it. I do get 80% spam and recruiters who clearly never read my profile, but thats unfortunately most of society these days, be it internet, phone, or snail mail.
Because there needs to be some kind of penalty for being a shitty person to your users.

Like I get it, marketing matters a lot, and being able to market to your existing users is something that makes sure companies survive and I accept that.

But because I find your app worthy of being on my phone doesn't mean I find your desire to constantly control what I'm looking at on my device or take away from that. And I think personally as the device manufacture its your job to safeguard YOUR customers too with the ability for them to report nefarious apps.
My wife and i just went through this for our wedding. A few remarks from that experience that might be helpful:

1. Versions matter - she'd often make a draft and want to tell me "ok tell me if you like this better than the previous version". Id just compare the cells above to the cells below.

2. We organized people based on common interests - these people are very into music, these are very into home renovations, these people work in tech...etc. Tagging people with "attributes" and letting the system try optimize for as much overlap as possible would have been amazing.

3. Warn me of duplicates - sometimes in the copy paste madeness, we'd double up someone.

4. Import - We almost missed someone due to me skipping a line in the initial transription of their name into the spreadsheet.

5. At the end of the day guests need to find their seat. I made a QR code that linked to a website where people could type their name to find their table (https://andrewmcgrath.info/wedding) we didn't want to use a big board, it was 1 more thing to make (the website was a 2 hr project i did the day before) and the QR codes were just print outs we put in dollar store photo frames at the entrance, the bar and at the end of the day...we got great feedback over this. With the guest lists, you could easily automate making someone this website.

Good luck!
There are platforms which do that yeah, they have "pools" of known researchers with tracked statuses, and you can tune how open your program is.

Some also have triage staff, but depending how typical your project is that can be very hit or miss.

3-5 spams per week vs. 1 per month is a big difference
The recommended strncpy() is just as bad as strcpy() because you'll end up with a string that's not zero-terminated if the length of the copied string is >= the target buffer size.

strlcpy() is a better option but is neither in the C nor POSIX standard.

snprintf() is also a good option since C99 but a bit overkill.
"Follow the money". And the money follows the users.
Does that come before or after any reasonable human contact through the course of a respectful process?

A 2 hour take-home as 1 step of a fair hiring process isn't too bad.

But you applying and then automatically getting a homework assignment would feel pretty crappy.
Wife and I were broke grad students when we got married. Reception was standardish (dinner, dancing, cake—her family paid for it). Honeymoon was a conference she was going to in San Diego.
I loved Super cars 2
AMT is also completely insane when it interacts with legitimate deductions and deferrals that aren't loopholes. For instance stock options from start-ups for stock that can't yet be sold.
I worked at a hedge fund where almost everyone was "Member of Technical Staff". That could be a 21 year old college graduate or a 50 year-old ex-staff engineer. I'm pretty sure the ratio of highest to lowest paid was 3:1 and likely even greater.
Yes, you are right. I probably should have stated that more clearly.
(I did mention input-leap though, which is a fork of synergy 1.x as far as I'm aware)
That’s exactly what a 501(c)(3) is. While nonprofits do not receive actual funding from the US government, unless in the form of grants, there is a revenue cost to the government due to lost tax revenues. We have given these orgs tax exempt status so that they may serve the public good, not the third homes of their executive staff.
Peacock is actually the most promising-looking of all the streaming services to me, but they don't offer it in my country (unlike Netflix, Prime, Disney+, Apple TV etc). Thankfully the Pirate Bay and Plex have never tried to geo block me.
>First, you conveniently ignore COL which matters a lot. Doesn't matter how much money you make if you spend most of it on rent and food.

In every single place, there are people that live stably at much lower salaries than what SDEs make. Nobody is entitled to a nice high rise 2 bedroom apt for themselves and eating out all the time. My first software job I made 80k a year in Northern Virginia which has a very high COL including state income tax, and still managed to have enough money left over for some recreation as well as a safety net.

>Second, I don't think you really appreciate the cognitive toll software engineering takes on you. It's not simple OOP and leetcode that is complicated. It's understanding and enhancing legacy code, it's dealing with unrealistic expectations, it's having to continuously pretend that the emperor has clothes and brag about bullshit things like productivity.

I absolutely do. My point is that if you are stressed, quit. Simple as that. And again, if you can't quit because you spend too much money or don't want to quit because you don't want to give up that lifestyle, then don't complain. There are people who have more stressfull jobs that make half as much and don't have the luxury to just quit.

>if blue collar workers could do what sw engineers do they would go for it.

Completely missed the point.

For the actual work that majority of CS people do, especially new grads, it is not that hard. There are plenty of lower paying CS jobs compared to FAANG where the bar to get in may be much lower, but you pretty much do the same basic tasks day to day. The reason FAANG pays that much is because they have (or realistically had) the funds to recruit talent en masse in expectation that statistically something profitable would come out of it, whereas other smaller companies that are ran much more conservatively tend to pay closer to market value.

If FAANG jobs came with a explicit disclaimer on which every single new hire had to sign off: "Hey, we are going to pay you way more above market rate, but you accept the risk of being overworked, potentially being piped out due to quota, and layoffs in cases of economic recession", I don't think people would be complaining about mental health in regards to jobs. But people shouldn't need that disclaimer to understand this.
People who constantly bellyache about Electron need to compare the all-up cost of one web developer-- of which there is a massive supply in the labor market-- versus one experienced native dev per OS, who are rare and expensive and getting more so all the time as the desktop withers as a development platform. That cost difference absolutely can be the difference between economic viability and unviability, but HN constantly seems to think companies only pick Electron because they're cackling with glee at the thought of wasting their customer's CPU cycles or whatever.
All the cloud providers offer a storage class for k8s. The storage class allows you to tell k8s that you want a persistent volume (PV) and it will make API calls to the cloud provider to get you a block storage device. You can tell k8s you want to use that PV in your pod and k8s will automatically mount the block storage to the worker node that your pod lives on and makes it available to the pod.

OP uses Longhorn which is a whole other thing that I've only read about.

For at home you can use other storage classes like ceph, NFS, etc.
Thank you - great info. Hope you keep making progress.
>A better equivalent would be arguing from an anonymous throwaway account (cough), where any replies go into the void, rather than to an established community member.

I don't agree with this. How can you say that your reply "goes into the void", just because the name of the account you're responding to is "throwaway892238" rather than "fluoridation"? In either case there's a person on the other end, how does the screen name they go by change anything? I could equally say that unless you tell me your real name, or unless you let me put my hand down your pants, or any other equally arbitrary standard, I don't consider you a real person. Neither the screen name, nor their real name, nor what's in their pants, is what the actual person is.

And they still haven't changed the primary app domain to x.com. Such a joke. It will probably never happen due to the engineering complexities of such a switch with just a barebones engineering team and loss of institutional knowledge over the last year.
It’s not that big a task as all that. There are a lot of unaligned models available, and user interfaces that aren’t that hard to use.

Arguably, it is not the real history anymore if you make it prettier.

Do you put manual work into rebases? It sounds like a lot of effort and time when collaborating.
Congrats! I tried before to build a calendar from scratch with no libraries at all and it was a real pain, especially figuring out how to make an event span through multiple days.
This has been one of my mantras since I started as a software developer.
Better question: would you rather let him rot in prison or be his next victim? Because in all these discussions about rehabilitation somehow we never talk about victims of the re-offenders
4' in Freedom Units. I'm wondering how well utilities and megastructures on the Noto Peninsula are able to cope with gradual and sudden shifts, even in Japan where earthquakes are assumed. It looks like Noto is being ripped and stretched NW from the mainland.

Also, I re-read the Fukushima Daiichi report summaries yesterday. It's an almost universal human condition that plays out again and again: corporate risk management for large projects is done improperly, especially when there are constraints and cognitive dissonance imposed by the business culture, and it leads to a major failure.

Points of the failure chain include:

- Failure to account for known unknown risks such as the land subsidence combined with a large tsunami (based on the coastal geomorphology of the specific site).

- Failure to protect critical EDGs from flooding, e.g., seawater intrusion. If trying to run a diesel motor near the ocean, it must be buttoned-up tighter than a Jeep with a snorkel including waterproofing sensors, wiring, and control systems. In general, sites should be chosen on very high ground with a large safety factor. If that's not possible, they should be placed on elevated, reinforced structures.

- GE BWR-3/-4 (Mark I) core design is such that they can overheat and self-destruct, even if scrammed, because cooling is an absolute requirement at all times.

- A lack of redundant, auxiliary, passive cooling ability, such as a gravity-fed reservoir that can be operated manually.

- Regulators did insufficient due-diligence to prevent these risks.

- "Made in Japan" failure of culture (this was part of the final report).

- Using radionuclides that are inherently dangerous and produce forever waste rather than cheaper alternatives like solar with PES. Japan's solar just overtook nuclear, but still relies heavily on coal and gas. BWRs are inherently nastier than PWRs.

Non-problems at FD:

- Scramming worked properly, but the primary loops were still hot.

Disclaimer: Worked in the nuclear industry where hostnames were Simpsons' character names.
Yes it is WAL protected: the advantage of external indexing is that the HNSW graph is being constructed externally on multiple cores instead on a single core inside the Postgres process. But eventually the graph is being parsed and processed inside Postgres with all the necessary WAL logs for blocks.
They are allowed on campus. Harvard is a private school and can ask anyone to leave the campus for any reason.

"Coyotes are making a comeback in the Bay Area and Northern California after decades of decimation by farmers and ranchers, who poisoned and hunted the feral canines."

I do have a problem with this choice of word. Coyotes are not feral nor descended from any domesticated species. They're native (even stated as such in the article earlier).
