I don’t think I have ever had a Windows laptop last 10 hours without a consistent effort to keep it in low power modes, keeping screen brightness as low as I can, and actively keeping the number of running processes and background programs as low as I can.

Sure 10-15 years ago, we were lucky to get 3-4 hours of battery life so getting 8-9 is great but they advertise these things as having upwards of 20 hours.

Linux not coming close to that is “acceptable” because they aren’t advertising it constantly as the reason you need to buy the latest laptop or get onto Windows 11. Apple is more honest in this regard and it really is the vertical integration that allows them to control the entire system.

There is a whole class of hybrid incubator/vc firms in the US ("VC Studios") that have used this model and achieved success. Sometimes the model is inverted, in that the VC studio will build the MVP with their small, in-house engineering team before staffing the "real" company and eventually handing the codebase off to founding engineering team.
From my experience, "anemic DDD inspired architecture" is fairly common in enterprise .NET codebases. These do heavily use all kinds of value object, DTO and DTO-like objects with the logic that processes them being defined separately.

Unfortunately, most of them still suffer from premature and very unnecessary abstraction bloat. Luckily, the trend for terseness and minimalism is gaining more and more momentum each year, with just a single 100 LOC Program.cs microservices with asp.net core's minimal API no longer raising eyebrows and causing arguments in the teams as much as it used to. Extensive support for pattern matching, records, closures (since a long time ago) and other ways to define strict and terse data structures is also helping to preserve functional nature of this approach.

Note that JVM does not have structs and has a long way to go until project Valhalla becomes a reality. FWIW it has been less of an issue thanks to quite strong escape analysis as implemented by OpenJDK and GraalVM, but it does not afford the same guarantees and degree of control the structs do (not to mention lack of monomorphized struct generics as in Rust and .NET). In the "average codebase", structs in .NET have not been as popular historically, but with heavy focus on "close to the metal" features in both compiler optimizations and syntax, and increasing awareness of C# being a viable and effective systems programming language, this also is changing.

That same article says Griffiths, the founder of National Milk Bars in Wales, got the idea when he saw them in a trip to London, and that they were an idea imported from the United States, so it must go back farther still.

The bearings in external bottom brackets are much less well protected, and so more vulnerable to water and dust and so on. That means they need to be regreased or replaced more often. I see people talking about doing that monthly, annually, whatever. I have been riding the same square taper bottom bracket since 2012, and it's doing fine.

The square taper per se may not be as good as a bolted spline or something. It is annoying to need a crank puller, but for me, it's been something i need once every five years or so, so not much of a problem in practice. So, compared to external bearing bottom brackets, a small disadvantage that buys you a big advantage. I have no opinion about the splined internal bottom brackets!
Hey Alex!

Indeed - good point to ensure business continuity. There should also be a transition period to ensure OP, you’re getting support (like 6 months of service) in addition to code that allows you to address the issue if the vendor does disappear.

I love how everyone likes to blame Java for OOP, when most of the stuff that eventually ended up in enterprise OOP patterns, predate Java for 10 years.

Including those stupid "coding Java in C++" remarks, when Java OOP model is based on a mix of C++ frameworks, and Objective-C features.
Regarding the tab management issue referenced in the post, I really could not use a browser without Tree Style Tab. Paired with Tridactyl, it makes tab management and switching tabs a breeze. I don't know if Chrome or any other browser has anything comparable to this setup and, to be frank, I don't even care. Firefox is one of my favorite pieces of technology ever and I'm not willing to give up on it.
I find writing it too hard compared to TS, but in terms of functionality it's pretty good.
As the owner of both a Subaru and a Bronco Sport Badlands I feel compelled to defend the latter! They both have very capable AWD systems.

If anyone wants a deep-dive on how the different types of 4WD and AWD systems actually work and their different pros and cons, this video from Alex on Autos is worth your 20 minutes- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD4dNv-jBOY

Should you take either vehicle on roads where the NPS says not to? Of course not! But there's a wide range of conditions between "gravel road" and "rock crawling in Moab", and a properly-equipped AWD vehicle will handle most of them. Know your vehicle, know your skill level, know the conditions you're going into, bring appropriate supplies in case you run into trouble, travel with a group and/or have a reliable way to call for help, etc.
You're all going to buy it anyway, so why would they do anything differently?
Kinda surprised to not have AI integration.

You do still need to proof and QA even AI results, if you want a publication quality result, and do things like attribute who is speaking when (at least Whisper can't do that), and correct "unusual" last names and things. So I feel like people using AI still need good tools for the correcting/finishing/proofing too, that would be similar to the tools for non-assisted transcription.
I rely on this site HEAVILY at work. Makes figuring out package dependency hell a dream!
If you don't need any of those things then your use of k8s just becomes simpler.

I find k8s an extremely nice platform to deploy simple things in that don't need any of the advanced features. All you do is package your programs as containers and write a minimal manifest and there you go. You need to learn a few new things, but the things you do not have to worry about that is a really great return.

Nomad is a good contender in that space but I think HashiCorp is letting it slowly become EOL and there are bascially zero Nomad-As-A-Service providers.

The franchise that owns a single store that is a bit less than what the owner will make (doing a lot of work in the store). Where the company owns the store that is what the top manager makes (from what I can tell the company makes about the same from a franchise or an owned store). Where the franchise owns multiple stores their income depends mostly on how much of the store work they do - but it isn't really possible to manager more than one so they have managers doing that work for them. Though it is possible they are underpaying the top managers and those top managers don't realize they could go elsewhere for more money (business often ignores fast food experience - which is normally correct but the top managers shouldn't be ignored because their experience is similar to other middle managers - less power point but otherwise similar enough)

It seems the "micro" implies that services are separated by high level business terms, like "payment" or "inventory" with each having their own databases instead of computational terms like "storage", "load balancing" or "preprocessing" etc.

Is this generally correct? How well is this term defined?

If yes, then I'm not surprised this type of design has become a target for frustration. State is smeared across system, which implies a lot of messaging and arbitrary connections between services.

That type of design is useful if you are an application platform (or similar) where you have no say in what the individual entities are, and actually have no idea what they will be.

But if you have the birds-eye view and implement all of it, then why would you do that?
That's not the mechanism by which this happens. It's likely illegal (or at the very least, a bad look PR wise) for them to increase your rates based on your refusal to be spied on, but the base price will likely increase as the adoption of technologies like this becomes more widespread, and the discounts will become a more important part of how people afford car insurance. It's not that your specific policy will go from $200/mo to $300/mo for not opting in, it's that over time the same policy for new customers will be $300/mo but with a $100/mo discount for letting them spy on you.
I recommend Tree Tabs over Tree Style Tabs as it let's you make tab groups. I will basically have one group per ticket or project, coloring the group depending on the state of that ticket (eventually going green when I've completed it but want to keep it around for a short while in case questions arise). Once the ticket has been done for a sprint I'll close the entire tab group.
Generally good advice is: Don't program Rust like nearly any other programming languages you know.

If you try to program Rust like C you are going to fight and lose.

If you try to program Rudt like and Object Oriented Language you will eventually go mad.

If you like a Zen master let all previous knowledge and pre-conceived notions of what beautiful code has to be out of the window and do it the Rust way, suddenly things flow and stop being a pain.

And that experience will help you be a better programmer, period.

Primitive types are placed on the stack, as are those classes proven to not escape current scope, thus not everything.

Show HN: I build JobXRecruiter to match candidates with a Job Description
Hey HN,

a few weeks ago, I realised that a lot of vacancies receive up to 500+ candidates. There is no way a recruiter / startup can review all the Resumes.

So I build JobXRecruiter :

- company uploads all the received candidates (pdf only for now)
- copy paste their job description
- AI goes through each Resume , and provides a detailed analysis of the candidate
- AI also provides a match (from 0% - 100%) against the job description.

It will hopefully save you a lot of time reviewing candidates.

We use Claude 3.5 , Chatgtp4o , pdf to text, laravel , and mysql.

The most important part of profiles is being able to right-click on a link and open it in a different profile. I don't see that mentioned. I typically have multiple profiles open at once.

Edge has the best implementation where you can define sites opening in certain profiles. Pity ms ruined that browser - it is completely untrustworthy with it auto turning on options such as syncing.

Firefox has been far too quiet in promoting its advantages (especially to the dev community), which might have helped in regaining market share. Despite my preference for Firefox, I find myself alone on this island in my workplace.

However, the decline of Firefox likely won't be tied directly to its market share. A bigger looming threat could be the repercussions from the Google antitrust case, given that a large portion of Firefox's operating income comes from Google.
Ask HN: Strategies to rein in or prevent bikeshedding?
Many years ago I was on a team where the team lead decided to outright accuse one of the members of bikeshedding. The accusation turned their relationship toxic, so much so that the team member was switched off to another team shortly after the accusation.

Let's say you're of the opinion that, whether consciously or unconsciously, one or more team members are engaging in bikeshedding. How would you handle the situation? Are there things that can be done beforehand to help steer people away from bikeshedding?
The biggest missing piece in these definitions? The tires. Most cars these days come with a very highway biased tire. These tires will fail very quickly in most conditions found on off road trails, especially those that are designated as 4x4 required. Failure can be as innocuous as limited traction or complete such as a flat tire from a puncture. If you are in a situation where a tire is punctured from lack of durability how do you think that space saver spare (or can of fix-a-flat) is going to help you get out?

The second major issue with AWD systems is often the clutch based systems that are engaged to transfer power ‘from the wheels that slip to the wheels that grip’. When used in demanding conditions these systems can overheat and shutdown. This also applies to brake biasing systems as well (brakes applied to spinning wheels to transfer torque to other wheels). It can be especially challenging for brakes as there is generally not sufficient air flow over the brakes to cool them during slower speed off-road travel.

Yes. Don’t just bring it in-house, bring it “in-brain,” learn to code yourself and lead by example! Make sure you can write tests (gherkins at a minimum and ideally E2E tests with some browser automation or whatever you need to simulate a user) for your team’s code to know it does exactly what you want and make sure you can run the tests on the dev branch yourself. Then you can trust AND verify!
This is an interesting twist of the original urban legend around these seeds. The story was that if you didn’t pay for monsanto seeds, and your neighbor did and planted them, and one blew into your yard then you’d be targeted by a lawsuit.

in reality though, i’d like to see this farmland so close to another that they can’t accurately spray or sow. there’s fences and access roads between fields, sometimes trees as well.
I would argue the most important step in "riding the bull" as the OP puts it is having savings[0]. In the context of keeping a job, having a savings cushion relieves a lot of stress and makes it much easier to make good long-term decisions (like taking the risk of leaving a company in a downward spiral for something unknown, but hopefully better.)

> This approach may not be so useful now that GenAI, both LLMs and synthetic voices, are getting good.

They are getting REALLY good, it is the old "it is photoshopped" except with sound. The problem though is not being able to differentiate, especially not the people scammers usually target (the elderly).

You cannot believe your own eyes AND ears now, sadly. It might sound dramatic, but it takes "trust no one and nothing" to a whole new level.
Helix is great but the rigidness on Selection -> Action editing methodology is a non-starter for me. And it isn't because of qualitatively better or worse reasons, it is about mobility and universality. I need an editing scheme that is universal for maximum mobility.

I understand the creator's viewpoint (Helix was made the way he likes it), but I think it would have been better to separate out the editing logic from all the other great, overlapping features.

It would be nice to have a modern, modal text editor that allows a user to utilize an uncompromising vim mode, emacs mode, kakoune mode, or any other custom mode they'd like -- all built in natively. An editor built for everyone should not be opinionated about how one edits.

That along with things like a built in LSP, plugin management, and extensible scripting support (allowing the use of plugins would multiple ecosystems) would be really sweet.

> why these restrictions aren't good for users

Because they strengthen monopolies, while providing little (if any) security benefits.

Furthermore, there's been plenty of prior examples of malicious apps passing app review, where an optimistic interpretation would be that app review is completely ineffective, and pessimistic would be that app review was more about the security of Apple's profit than their end-users'.

> In that case, are users better served with or without these requirements?

Promoting safe development practices is good, but in practice it will change little because they have no way of enforcing them (see aforementioned gaps in app review).
