Love or hate UEFI it's the defacto standard for booting modern hardware and the added support gets us closer to a viable desktop platform. The success of M1 has shown the advantages of a consumer risc platform but the holy grail for many of us is a totally open platform with similar power/performance advantages to arm.

It's a small step but an important one.

If you want good people pay them and respect them. It's crazy how you have to explain humanity to people in the tech industry.

If you are good at what you do then there are two reasons you will do it. 1. You are paid well 2. You are respected

Don't be annoying about doctors appointments or time off, if they do their job just let them do it. Don't make them come into an office they don't want to be in, don't make them be in meetings that have nothing to do with them and could have been an email. It's really crazy simple, just think what you would want and then treat people the same.

Yea yea yea...but you still use it because the alternatives while better performing and even more secure...are not as feature rich or as well known.

I feel like this thread comes up in one way or another every few months but in a place where people almost have a hellbent desire to reinvent wheels nobody has reinvented this one in say...go or rails or whatever.

Why? Because for all of the hate jura actually does what it does pretty well when it's working and for most people and most businesses that aren't your homelab it works just fine provided you pay someone to maintain and administer it.

It's very sad to see the amount of people here blaming an employee. I think under these conditions they didn't do anything more aggressive than the manager.

Calling out a manager for bad behaviour shouldn't be vilified like this, especially when they are doing the same up the ladder to you. I think HN is just soaked in "fellow kids" types who are trying to stay hip and trendy and get their startup seen.

This isn't a site for tech junkies, it's a site for managers and they hate hate hate that this describes many of them.

They did that in the call and it cause the initial conflict...

Dude, he did nothing wrong and you are gass lighting him.

He tried to do his job and the manager was trying to do his job too... You clearly didn't read it.

I'm surprised that wccftech doesn't get auto flagged on here like it does many other sites. It is well known for getting it's content from the rumor mill.

I wonder at what point we will finally give up on trying to make a stable implementation of speculative execution.

The best thing you can say about apple music is that it's not Spotify

We live in an age of poor design. Advertisement and dark patterns run rampant and reduce the functionality and usability of our software all the time.

That being said Spotify still somehow stands out as a case study in how not to design an interface. What's worse is that the mobile apps are specifically designed with electron under the assumption that it will make cross platform development easy...but it breaks on every device in different ways.

It's sad because I hate having to maintain a large music catalog manually but no music service really provides an adaquite solution to this and the system with the most extensive library is sadly...the worst platform for it. I hope they get better but I've been hoping that for years at this point.

I love when a website does something simple, practical, and does it with a clean interface. Excellent

It's as much as a pain as you make it. For me if I keep it well organized I basically just forget that I have to login to things at work, I just click them and I'm in or I navigate and it's filled.

I can see how it might not be the solution you want for home but at work I'm just trying to get things done and that unfortunately involves a large number of passwords that can't easily be federated into an SSO like okta because they span businesses clients and companies. I don't understand the hate for LastPass, for me it just works (tm)

There are a lot of non Americans asking how a bill that was universally condoned was killed and the answer is sad but not particularly complicated.

American politics primarily works based off of what people see on TV or read in the news and what a politician says and what they do are entirely disconnected. So these politicians publically say whatever is the popular openion which in this case is that right to repair is good but then they placate to companies who don't want right to repair to succeed.

This allows them to have their cake and eat it too. They get to say they tried to push for it but there wasn't support even when you can search and find that they in fact voted against it and are even often on the payroll of many of these companies in a round about way.

How is this possible? Well you don't have too fool every American just most Americans and the overwhelming majority of Americans don't care about any issues that do not effect abortion, gun control, taxation, or jobs. This doesn't directly effect those things in a significant for Californians so it becomes quick forgotten in a month when some other hot topic becomes the news of the week.

If a conservative politician is pro abortion and pro gun control they can do anything else they want legislatively and get the votes they need for reelection so they pass laws on the side in which they are sure to get financial kick backs for. It's basically a mr.smith goes to Washington but nobody ever has to deal with the consequences of corruption they just get upset when they are caught.

Rinse and repeat.

I never understood this argument. If you have code that only runs on perl 5 then install perl 5. If breaking changes objectively make a language better then break it! Nobody is forcing you to migrate to perl 7 and you can always just maintain binaries for perl 5 for legacy use.

The amount of time spent on this seems absurd and could have been spent getting a perl 7 release candidate ready. It's sad to see OSS eat itself alive so often over a desire to keep something that people just assume is desired.

I'm really tired of this "this is one of the hardest messages" cold open. You have thrown innocent people under the bus because you don't know how to balance a budget and mitigate risk. One thing none of these messages have ever done as far as I'm aware is take responsibility for their actions.

Planetscale is really being pushed on this site lately but all I see is theory and promises of doing things different for vague reasons. I hope I'm wrong or just not understanding something but it feels like a CEO trying to sell a product without understanding the technical reasons why a project like this hasn't existed before. I can't imagine that planetscale is going to solve something that Google, amazon, Facebook, apple, and Netflix all failed to solve for a similar use case and for well documented reasons.

I'll be the one to say it. For the price point you can build a very good custom keyboard with low profile keys of your choice. This is a fact that Logitech, Corsair, and razer, hope you never bother to find out.

Typo in the first sentence of an article is never a good sign.

I am not a fan of HP, their quality control is horrible but it's a good sign that companies are moving in the right direction on Linux. It goes to show that they realize the market for it is there and that, for all my misgivings about the company, is a good thing for them and for us. I genuinely hope it's a great laptop and an exception to the rule.

Good first video I really enjoyed it. I always liked how the Gameboy works from how it looks and sounds to the way people found clever ways to get effects on the limited hardware like screen wipes and blur.

Not really no. The power draw and heat on these chips are nearly 3x the AMD variant.

Sad to see still no 15/16 inch variant, amd edition, or choice of black shell.

That being said I'm glad to see they are following through on the things they promise like upgradable cores. In theory I take it this means if you currently have a framework laptop you can just buy the compute core and upgrade.

I just find that YAML doesn't improve anything over JSON.

Having recently migrated from cloudformation to terraform on a project the use of HCL is wonderful in comparison and when I'm all ready to commit I just type terraform fmt and everything is aligned properly. Considering it's just as trivial to do this in any JSON prettifier...I don't understand the need for yaml besides pure asthetics which is why you either love it or hate it, because it doesn't help or hurt it just annoys you or it doesn't.

I will answer your question with another question.

Have you heard of Oracle?

I thought this was well known as Peterson effect.

In a landscape consumed with pushing crypto scams and web3 nonsense it was nice just to see a small blurp about someone explaining basically how I feel.

I like the web for different things but they are in a bit of a state of conflict. Things like Wikipedia are virtually unaffected by webassembly while things like Twitter and Facebook might make good use of it.

The future has yet to be written but like the article I kind of just know we are in a transition period from what we have to ...something.

I don't normally curse on HN but I think I speak for all of us when I say

Fucking finally.

They can it's just typically called hypocrisy.

No

As someone who has spent the last 3 years of their life maintaining and scaling one this is madness.

I can't believe this kind of conspiracy nonsense gets posted to HN.
