Your bag as in your bag of purchases?

Or something like a hand-bag / purse / backpack?

> Costco reserves the right to inspect any container, backpack, briefcase, or other bag, upon entering or leaving the warehouse and to refuse entry to anyone at our discretion.

Which makes me wonder, can I refuse a Walmart receipt check? I never agreed to their inspection.
I agree generally. But I would say that assuming some level of context is quite reasonable. Someone considering Airtable probably isn’t confused and looking for furniture.

I quite liked the clarity-impact axes. When writing copy it can sometimes feel like a single linear spectrum. I was waiting for the advice to when in doubt, prioritize clarity over impact - especially for new products.
There's a definite vibe these days of "this is how it's always been" when it really hasn't.
Understood. Thanks for clarifying :)
I think you're overextending his reply. He gave interesting insights on how he answers this question and that's all. Lots of companies I'm looking at are asking such questions even for very basic roles. I can't believe they are all filled with extremely talented people who are that many orders of magnitude above everyone else, and who could be working anywhere else they wanted and chose that job from all others because they are so interested specifically in that company/product/domain/role; and, because of that, they gave brilliant answers to the "why do you want to work here?" question when they applied. If I'm wrong, please give me examples of those brilliant answers. I'm honestly curious about what kind of data that input produces to people at the other side of the table.

Your second quote has always resonated very strongly with me, both as a concept and also from the original-ish verse:

Oh would some power
the gift He gives us
To see ourselves
as others see us
It would from many
a blunder free us
And foolish notion
What airs in dress
and gait would leave us
And even in CPU fabrication!

One does not necessarily exclude the other, in my experience. Personally I love being told when I’m wrong, and I think the OP was actually fishing for this kind of feedback.
Why not go down the partner route? Keep your equity until they have proven themselves.

Your goal is to have sales, not marketing. Give a cut of ARR. Rate varies depending on how much partnership involvement is expected for the sale.

For me the problem is not death itself, but the steady decline that usually comes before it. Biologically immortal humans would still die eventually, but there wouldn’t be decades of old age before death.
Re your kustomizen complaint, just create a complete env-specific ingress for each env instead of patching.

- it is not really any more lines
- doesn’t break if dev upgrades to a different version of the resource (has happened before)
- allows you to experiment with dev with other setups (eg additional ingresses, different paths etc) instead of changing a base config which will impact other envs

TLDR patch things that are more or less the same in each env; create complete resources for things that change more.

There is a bit of duplication but it is a lot more simple (see ‘simple made easy’ - rich hockey) than tracing through patches/templates.
Nah, those that don't expect you will figure itbout with 1000 hours of trial and error usually, which is not really acceptable
Honestly, they'd probably be better off if they ditched all the sed/awk/macro BS and just went back to bash scripts (or perl/TCL, if you don't like weird syntax issues) that spat out C code. Rust saw the writing on the wall and implemented proc macros.

Stop using tiny hammers and get a big one.
To be fair to Mason, the answer is mostly listed in the first line of the introduction.

mason.nvim is a Neovim plugin that allows you to easily manage external editor tooling such as LSP servers, DAP servers, linters, and formatters through a single interface.

I still use Packer, so perhaps that is not true for Lazy, but the other package managers handle Neovim plugins, mostly GitHub repositories with vim or lua codebases.

Mason installs and manages things like Language Servers, which are separate binaries running on your machine, and also starts them on demand.

Correct in one!
It sounds to me like you’re saying that Apple management recognized that an integrated ecosystem (phone, tablet, watch, desktop OS etc…) could offer significant value to its costumers (in Apple’s case, the customer is the end user) while providing sufficient margin to serve as a profitable business model. Google, an advertising company, was focused on giving away free stuff (Gmail, Android, etc…) as an means to build profiles of its users that it could sell to its customers (in this case, advertisers).

A bit off topic, but I personally find Google, and by extension, the Android ecosystem, to be an underhanded business model. I don’t feel bad it’s ending poorly for them. It’s especially rich Google ripped off Apple in order to get Android launched [1].

If a wheel spins on an axle with an open differential, mechanically speaking, it receives all the power, being that it is the path of least resistance. That's a problem because the remaining wheels are the only useful ones for propelling the vehicle, but they stop receiving power. The reason power may be cut is a traction control system response to this slipping, not the mechanical drivetrain configuration itself. Depending on the vehicle, this may be done by cutting power at the engine, or by braking the individual wheel that is spinning, or both.

A locking differential distributes the power evenly between both sides, all of the time.

Limited-slip differentials do something in between the above two, depending on the type.
How have I not heard about this in the bajillion times I whined about tab groups?

I kinda dislike that Firefox only have one good option that involves completely hiding each group currently not in use, but it functioned ith their tab containers which made it worth the hassle.

If this does too, I'm switching permanently
AMD and Intel have always been racing each other closely. Remember when the Athlons outperformed Netburst P4s while Intel was trying to get the latter to higher clock speeds? Then the Core series put Intel in the lead again, and now they're losing to AMD once more. Here's some 15-year-old benchmarks for your amusement:

> Groups approximately never like outsiders imposing consequences on group members.

It's also worth considering why this happens, instead of just regarding it as something people do because they're inherently malevolent.

Suppose you suspect your organization of violating some law. You think they're supposed to be using some safety feature on their equipment and they're not, or what have you. In a normal organization, you report this to the leadership and if it's a real problem they fix it, because they know what happens if you report it to law enforcement or it causes someone to get hurt and they don't want that.

Now suppose one of your members reports it to law enforcement instead of the organization's leadership. Government inspectors show up and you have to pay lawyers to deal with them, and lawyers are expensive. Reporters write negative stories about you. These things happen even if the person reporting it was wrong and there was never a real problem. Worse, these outsiders are not always that diligent and you could be prosecuted or dragged through the mud despite the person reporting it being the one who made an error. And if they didn't make an error -- if the problem was real -- that's even worse, because now you're getting convicted instead of having an opportunity to correct the problem. Many laws are even implicitly written under the expectation that honest mistakes are handled internally and only intransigent bastards get reported to the government, so anyone who goes there first is going to be a pariah.

This is legitimately hard to fix because there is a trade off between cost and accuracy. If investigators are more diligent, so they get the result right more often, they have to spend more time finding out what's really going on in an organization they don't come into it with any internal understanding of. Which imposes costs on both the government and the possibly-innocent subject of the investigation. But if they're less diligent then they'll be imposing penalties on innocent people more often. In both cases, any group is not going to want there to be an investigation and is going to be resentful of anyone who causes there to be one.

Governments often make this worse by trying to make it better and imposing penalties on people who fail to report. Because that requirement doesn't eliminate the structural incentive -- if nobody reports then nobody gets punished for not reporting -- but now the group is going to respond with more severe retaliation for reporting because you've just given everyone who didn't report it the incentive to protect the perpetrators to protect themselves and to retaliate against anybody who does.

What you really want here is to do the opposite. Limit the costs and consequences to the unrepentant actual perpetrators, and make sure they're actually guilty, so you don't give the general group the impression that they're all in the same boat and should be collectively fighting against their enemies in the other tribe.
At this point, I think it’s clear that ads create a bunch of messed up incentives. From Cable, to Newspapers, to the Internet.

I guess any information <system? network? Broadcaster?> fares badly against financial consolidation of its <servers / distributors ?>

Advertisements are one part of the fall - it forces a fight for attention, and that is a limited resource.

We know enough about gaming Attention today, and that converges content that drives revenue in a similar direction, creating a conformity of content that is reproduced.

As revenues decline, independent nodes on the network get consolidated, so that you have very similar messages being sent.

——

Counter point: As content generated increases, people turn to trusted sources to find out what’s true.

That said, trusted sources aren’t just the big media houses, it’s whoever people trust.

So some part of the consolidation effect is reduced by having more sources of content.

But the new sources of content exist, because they can afford to exist. So it comes back to the fact that advertising subsidizes independent creators.

——

Guess the final point would be that this evolves into a discussion on resources and orchestrated information dissemination.
I really really want nim to catch up. It's a lovely language. I've used it for small projects and it is great but I couldn't use it for anything complex that requires third-party libraries. The ecosystem is just not there.

OK, pretty good example of my not considering all the inputs to the problem even though I knew all the inputs.
Lousy choice but the billionaire is much better.
In my opinion, Firefox has never been particularly good. I tried it when it first came out - it was slow and a memory hog. Using IE6 was a much better experience, so I stayed there. It was only once Chrome came out that we had an actual good alternative to IE, and I switched immediately once I tried it.

I would love for Firefox to be awesome, but ultimately (in my subjective opinion of course) it just kind of sucks and always has.
That particular regime appropriated and tainted a great many symbols which had long persisted with benign or positive connotations for centuries or millennia, let alone literal genocidal poison gas.

By the way, as a developer, I find logistics interesting, I wouldn't be concerned about the industry. Your problem seems intriguing, I'd work on it.

I don't have experience in this situation, but your assessment sounds very solid,I agree with you.

The main pitfall I keep thinking about is making sure to hire somebody very focused on getting the stuff done specifically for your business. If they go down a path of developing software, it can generate enormous waste. To clarify, they might need to be ready to create scripts to extract data from the existing software and integrate the workflows (kind of doing what you are doing with no code), rather than writing from scratch, because the alternative might have astronomical costs.
I would focus on senior devs, pass on juniors for the first hire.
Not sure how many people would be necessary.

Isn't this somewhat better, at least when it fails it's in a single place?

As someone using Kafka, I'd like to know what the (good) alternatives are if you have suggestions.
I don’t think so. It has more to do with police brutality, unnecessary use of force, power tripping and ego, murdering of unarmed civilians sometimes children sometimes people in their own home, etc. than specific details about investigation of fraud. The bar is still very low of what we can expect of our “civil servants”.

Re-read what it was written in response to.

You argued a lot that something like Black Square has little "artistic merit" because it is very easy to re-create, and someone could do it by accident.

Let me pose a question: if so, why hasn't there been a painting like that in the 19th century? 18th? Or at any time over the millenia that the humanity has produced paintings in rectangular frames?

Black, after all, is the simplest, most easily available color.

Another line of thought for you to consider. You might have heard of Vaporwave[1], which is a musical[2] as well as visual art aesthetic/movement.

I've recently started using a fanless laptop as my primary day to day device, and 100% agreed I'm never going back.

I'll give up a LOT of performance for silent and long battery life, because I find waiting a second occasionally much less annoying than a fan blasting randomly, or my legs baking. SSDs have largely resolved the perceived UX latency issues that used to occur, CPUs and GPUs now are far more powerful than needed for everything but specialized stuff (compiling, encoding, stuff that intentionally maxes out the machine. Regular applications do not do this, on purpose, but they do regularly bog down on I/O).

Though the screen on this thing is awful.
Interesting concepts, thanks!
I watched one Yon's recent videos, I didn't detect any "white nationalism". I prefer original sources over race baiting. We should be capable of evaluating individuals and their messages on their own merit. There are many areas where I disagreed with Yon, but I didn't find any of the inflammatory content your sources suggested. To the contrary, it fits with my past experience with the SPLC's partisan crusades.

It's not a constitutional issue. They're not commenting about an active investigation because they're still investigating and public comments can interfere with the investigation.
If you take stereo photos and want a way to view them. Go to an Antique store and get a stereoscope. They can be purchased inexpensively. Have your photos printed on 5x7 with the images arranged like a stereo card. Perfect color, prints are inexpensive, if your willing to send away you can get photos on matte paper so they look better than most stereo cards.

I would pay a license fee and so would a lot of smaller sites if you had insurance and indemnification if they got sued.

However much I dislike Unsplash, and that's quite a bit, I do think there's a interesting benefit to their paid offer where if you use an unsplash image and it turns out that actually copyrighted (e.g. someone who is not the photographer who uploads the image and then the photographer sues you for using the image), Getty will defend you / pay your legal fees.

Right now I'm very particular about using things labeled out of copyright or uncopyrighted. Even things that are in the Flickr Commons or on NASA's site can be suspect.

For instance I just ran across a company logo uploaded by the San Diego aviation museum that's listed as out of copyright in Flickr Commons, but I strongly suspect it's still copyrighted. On NASA's site, I've seen images attributed to SpaceX and don't trust them at all not to sue.

Given that the penalty for being wrong on copyright can be insanely high even if you have the best intentions, I would really like a source that I could trust and would pay to be indemnified.

The prediction does not hinge on inheritance (most folks manage to start their own lives, careers and families well before their parents pass), but on the upbringing, milieu and economic as well as social capital available.

> But in the long run open source wins because once an open source alternative exists it is just the better option.

This is just wishful thinking. Anything close to real professional use, not related to IT, and closed source is king: office work, CAD, video editing, music production, and those domains immediately came to mind. Nowhere there open source can seriously challenge commercial, closed sourced competitors.

Yes, in any of those domains one can name open source products, but they are far from "winning" or "the better option".

If you don't have a 'trusted wrangler' freelancers won't build anything worthwhile as they're not interested in the long term unless forced.

Freelancers' careers live or die based on where future work is coming from. Happy clients are good for repeat business. Happy clients refer other potential clients. Happy clients are good for portfolios or case studies. Smart freelancers are all about keeping their clients happy in the long term. It's just good business.

Of course there are people in the freelance world who are hopeless and will never build anything useful just like there are people in the employment world with the same problem. But it's much more career-endangering to be incompetent as a developer and/or as a communicator in the freelance world because freelance gigs can often be terminated relatively easily if the client isn't happy with the work.

Maybe this is different in the parts of the US where compensation for tech employees can be way higher than anywhere else but in most of the world freelancers tend to be relatively good at what they do and part of the attraction of going the freelance route is that it doesn't have the glass ceiling on compensation that being an employee often does so if you're good enough to justify higher fees then you can actually charge what you're worth.

Agreed that Samsung is just playing copycat to Apple. They used to make great, innovative phones without being a copycat, like back in the S4/S5 days, but then they just decided to copy everything Apple did, like eliminating the headphone jack.
