This feels like a private which has reached the public shorn of the context that would be necessary to understand it.

I use Wpengine and have enjoyed it. They have some aggressive upsells and you learn you can ignore them. Actually had no idea about revisions, hadn't used them before I hosted with Wpengine.

I very much like using Wordpress and Wpengine has helped make it easy to do so. I'm sure they have some things to work put between them but I feel this needs more info. At a certain level it's open source software and if it isn't a trademark violation and is allowed by the license terms then Wordpress has only moral suasion to work with.

Very happy with the work Wordpress has done to make an amazing ecosystem. If they need something from WPEngine to keep things going I think it's fair to ask and perhaps they did but we're a bit in the dark here.
This headline is like "vaping reduces cigarette use". While true and good, you shouldn't be vaping. Just like you shouldn't replace human presence with a digital companion.
It's really interesting how the _only_ free speech being cared about in this context is specifically the freedom to spread blatantly false information. It's not even stuff that can hide behind plausible deniability, really.

And the specific freedom to defend and spread nazi speak. Which, in Brazil, in paper is a crime.

It's never freedom of speech with a goal other than actively desiring and justifying to hurt others, of belittling and bullying others.

Quite amusing.

> If the author's description of the case is accurate, it really doesn't matter how you feel about the death penalty—you can replace "put to death" with "life in prison" and this is still an extreme miscarriage of justice

The difference is that you can partially undo a sentence of life in prison. The death penalty is permanent. In the absence of a perfect justice system (and perfection is not achievable in anything as complicated as a criminal justice system), innocent citizens will eventually be killed by the state with no chance of them eventually being set free if a miscarriage of justice comes to light.
The author's argument is that calling WP Engine's causing confusion. If so, wouldn't they be suing instead of blogging?

Interesting point of history— the H8 processor is the MCU that powers the original Lego Mindstorms RCX. In high school I wrote some assembly language for it when making a robot that ran on BrickOS:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BrickOS
> You can't detect without affecting.

"These detectors are distant enough that what they do cannot affect the electron, i.e., the electron does not know about the detectors."

We detect gravitational waves without "affecting".

The electron mass and charge send out signals. Have the detectors sufficiently far away that they can't affect the particle yet. Get the detection and then know where the particle was and its mass and charge then. Have the particle reflected by some mirrors and then know the current path of the particle and its mass and charge, all without affecting the particle.
I think I would be fine with a modern roof that respected and blended in to the Gothic style. But the designs I saw were all frankensteins of the elegant Gothic original and a completely unrelated style. The stained glass idea was interesting, but it and several other designs drew the eye's focus to the roof, rather than the main body of the building. It's sadly out of fashion, but I definitely think that architecture needs to blend in to its surroundings, which in the case of the roof is the rest of the building.

(Of course, I'm not French, so my opinion has no weight in the matter)

Ask HN: Strategies for Working on Large Projects
I'm used to working on smaller projects--ones where I can hold the entire project structure and framework in my head. It makes me incredibly effective since I know my way around the project, how any magic works, and the cleanest way to do things. I also find my work is better because I feel more invested in the project and have more control in its direction.

I recently joined a large team with a large project that involves some cross-functional work. What are some strategies people have for working in this sort of environment?

More context: I'm an experienced (10+ years) engineer who's worked at several big names you've heard of. It's not that I'm not comfortable wading through a megarepo to fix a bug or reaching out to other teams for help. My issue is with ambiguity, vision, ownership, and having the big picture of the project in my head.

I am sympathetic to this way of thinking about "artisanal". I guess for me it has so much baggage re: food, I don't think of it this way. I'd perhaps call that/your way the "DIY way", because you're right -- it is sometimes appealing and advantageous, even if I'm not certain that's what the article intended.

I think like you but my friends had already locked themselves behind screens in the last 2 decades - with twitch, social media, chats, and lives occurring exclusively online. The offline life is for rent and RTO where we physically locate ourselves and then plug in online as soon as we can.

I was talking about automatic instrumentation of every single function call by default. No manual instrumentation needed because everything is already instrumented.

To be fair, you do still want some manual instrumentation to correlate higher level things, but full trace everywhere answers most questions. You also want to be able to manually suppress calls for small functions since that can be performance relevant or distorting, but the point is “default on, manual off” over “default off, manual on”.

It might not be WordPress, but then WordPress is often an inefficient, error-prone piece of dung anyway. WP Engine is the only painless WordPress hosting solution I've seen. It's fast and has a great backend panel for debugging. Hard to do all that yourself for that price, unless you're hosting WP in bulk.
no, they definitely have differences.

From the conclusion:

> Playing “Tetris” after viewing traumatic material reduces unwanted, involuntary memory flashbacks to that traumatic film, leaving deliberate memory recall of the event intact.
This is totally what I’ve been doing all day. I call it “digital puttering”.

It’s where much of the beauty and craft of something is developed. It requires a craftsperson to not just “call it done and move on”, but instead to be intrinsically motivated to spend time with the creation intimately, rolling it around in your hands/brain. Guiding a vine here and there, plucking a leaf or two… until it ‘feels’ right.
The version I linked supports both single player and online (competitive) multiplayer. The 'Practice' option allows playing single player.
Only a naive implementation requires infinite memory. (And even then it's unbounded, not infinite.)
I had the same thought on SS7 being kept vulnerable on purpose. With continuous attempts in EU and elsewhere on tapping the E2EE communication and the fact that email remains insecure despite so many proposals makes me think this really is one of those things that get agreed upon behind closed UN doors. And I am NOT a fan of conspiracy theories.

I think that lack of information, i.e. any effort to remediate this, is an information in itself.

We settled on Wordpress and WP Engine for the marketing side of my employer's website. Strictly speaking, I'm in charge of all of our technology choices, but my time and attention is better spent on our product, and WP Engine and its deployable artifacts is good enough for leadership. (We are a very small company)

My boss (ie the owner) has never asked me about per post versioning. When we need to roll back, WP Engine's custom snapshotting fits the need.
>I would rather kill myself than talk to an AI to “reduce loneliness.”

What an odd thing to say.
This sounds similar to Smalltalk systems, especially in that it clashes with modern version control source code practices.

What is the modern equivalent, that would be used with files checked in to git? IDE's? Jupyter or Livebook?
100%. Basically allow the phone to be unlocked unless it goes into default, then it gets relocked until out of default.
That doesn't sound too complicated? There's two things here being conflated, the view and the data.

You can show the current state when not in focus and show the edit state when in focus.

Or view it from the angle of the input. Show the current state or edited, but the input device could be smart enough to auto-fill a field if you click off and click back onto it within a short time period.
At a government job, new contractors had to watch a video of a serious man telling us the jailtime and monetary penalties for accessing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) inappropriately. I never even tried to get the PROD credentials.
"Artisan" is covering a great deal of ground.

At a previous job, probably fifteen years ago, we were replacing one bit of niche software (the company was gone, it was unsupported, and it had some very antiquated methods of ingestion, like faxes) with another, mostly similar bit of software. Continuity was desired.

Different philosophies went into structuring the two databases, so it was like lifting a vast set of webs made by social spiders from one tree and placing it on another, just for the data import. I interviewed various people who were in different roles as to how they they used the old system. I checked the databases to see what they did not tell me about how they actually used the system. I scoured over the incoming data feed sources and made robust ingestion processes, validating and correcting and logging. Knowing the vagaries of software vendors, I wrote bits to detect changes made by vendors to the database structure, or at least the portions I cared about, and whine when those occurred. I grokked how the several different roles people had in interactions with the system led to differing needs and desires, incorporating as much of how things "used to work."

The eventual juggernaut which resulted was something of a force of nature, a compilation of my best thoughts on my best days, outperforming me. It would tell you if a new type of data appeared which had not been announced, whom to ask about this data, and where to put it. It functioned for a decade of my oversight, occasionally murmuring that it wanted this or that, but without changes to the code.

That was the artisinal bit to me, that it was carved to fit some very exacting spaces, such that you hardly knew it was present. Yes, it took extra time. Yeah, it was just me. But the fit was tight and the finish was smooth.

(Naturally, some bright spark got a touch of the New Broom Syndrome and blew it and all of the documentation away after I left, I am told that there are continual complaints about the system now. Sadly, with even minimal prompting, the various tiny details arose from memory, prompted by the SMS messages.)
I'm sure that we could find ways to draw the same conclusions from social media and always-on connections in peoples' pockets, but study after study shows that we're lonelier than we've ever been.

Maybe we should just stop trying to replace face-to-face contact with other people.

This answers a lot of questions for me.

I was obsessed with Tetris from 2018-2021, specifically NES Tetris (because I grew up with it) to the point that my Max score on a NES CRT was 943252(1) on level 28, with DAS.

Not long ago I got a C-PTSD diagnosis, oddly cause I was able to finally see the situation I used to be in, and that was during a hard decade which included 2019-2021

I got out of that situation and have played Tetris maybe twice in the past year.

So yeah feels right

I generally wrap my radios inside of the label for this reason. Is there a reason not to do that?
I personally dislike WP Engine after years of having used them. Earlier this year there was a story about how Cloudflare had bizdev representatives reach out about a technical issue under the guise of customer support. I saw the very same thing with a client on WP Engine a few years back, and it was over something that they likely could have done something about given their position in the ecosystem: Too many spiders hitting old URLs.

Instead of recommending strategies to help fix it, they jacked up our prices. It was a huge pain for everyone involved.

But I think the challenge is, at an agency level, it’s hard to move to another CMS host because it’s seen as difficult to move up the food chain. Providers like WP Engine exploit this misunderstanding by targeting non-technical customers with promises that they’ll help you out. That was clearly an opportunity for them to step in, and they used it to put on the squeeze.
“The same thing happens every 3-5 years.”

This is so true. I remember when Demand Media was crushing it on Google in the early 2010s. Seem like they were everywhere, and then one day they weren’t.
This was on their example LLaVA 1.5 7b q4 with all default parameters which does not specify chat or instruct... but after the first message it actually worked as expected so I guess it's RLHF'd for chat or chat+instruct.

I don't know if it was some sort of error on the UI or what.

Trying to interrogate it about the first message yielded no results. It just repeated back my question, verbatim, unlike the rest of the chat which was more or less chat-like :shrugh:
Unclear if they had these rules in place already but I'm curious... If the rule permits writing when the userid matches, presumably there is nothing stopping the write operation to change the userid value, to your point.

Which then leads me to the next question, what is the practical way to write rules against that operation?

This tends to produce experiences that are very smooth for a large group of people but fail really badly for anyone who is slightly different. Most Apple stuff feels like this to me, for example. It's like carving a polished stone path where any direction you step off the path is raw and jagged.
That's exactly a statement that's both true and unsympathetic.

I mean it's just an empirically verifiable fact through surveys that if a person self vocalizes in public, the average person (in the US) would be afraid to approach that person.

I would say that the OP's advice is useful for people who can control self vocalizations and didn't know that was seen negatively by the average person. It is NOT useful for people who can't control their self vocalizations, or people who already know about the fact.

Yes, I came to realize the same thing about open source, it was created with lofty ideals, but the practice is just the opposite. Of course, most people will not agree with this conclusion since the whole industry will tell them otherwise.
Not everything that is immoral will necessarily be illegal. We can't legislate morality. The WordPress.org folks seem to be taking a position that WP Engine's behavior is immoral. That doesn't mean that WordPress.org has some duty to attempt to use every governmental remedy at their disposal to prevent WP Engine from taking these (allegedly) immoral actions. Instead, the folks at WordPress.org are attempting to use public shaming and boycott to bring WP Engine in line.

Do you believe that governmental mandates are the only acceptable solution to (this class of) immoral acts with software?

This article is talking about the first one. There isn't much confusion possible in the title, especially with the dissenting carrier names highlighted.
