Is online the same? It's possible to talk to someone new every time. Will this long process happen for each person?

There's a reason why first impressions matter. Yes, someone who left a bad first impression could be a diamond in the rough. Except, why not just chat with the other diamonds instead?

See that for more info and a comparison of the esim adapters.

Interesting point is >Their solution is not the commonly-used Eastcompeace solution. Instead, they used disassembled Apple chips. As you can see in the EasyLPAC screenshot. They used these recycled chips and re-engineered them.

The cost for these seems pretty high though.

Think toxic game forums. They used to be nice and a good place, but now? It's a hot mess and everyone who wants proper discourse already self selected out.

The hackers have disappeared and we're apart of the prohlem.

Should really have a tag rule to prevent any boring business start up bogus discussions when the poster wants.

Strange to say use rails for static, but the author argues how server less is a nightmare. Though, I also think the same, use nextjs just for the react frontend and a proper backend.

Why did the tech lead decide to move everything to lambda when you only have 1k DAU? Can they be reasoned with or is it lambda or the highway?

You can pull put the stats and do comparison, note the wasted time, how it's not beneficial but rather detrimental. Note how long it now takes to debug for such a small codebase, then extrapolate that out.

Having tons of lambdas is a massive pain in terms of debugging. Cloud watch is not that great to debug, and the debug tooling tends to be rather expensive, like data dog so not too much is invested. Or it's too resource intensive to setup open telemetry.

One shortcut today is another tomorrow and the day after. It's not about the single person either, but rather the culture itself.

Now this is different from improving processes or efficiencies. The incentives and motivations also matter. Take a large group 1 hour before the restaurant closes. For the staff, it's shit, why didn't they come earlier. But for the restaurant it's great news, more money and potential repeat customers.

Though I wonder if bit bucket would win if they had githubs name

Some characters are encoded differently based on what system set it. So an if statement character comparison runs into the same misery as the author has :(

Valve is a good example, their long term support of existing features is poor. But their ability to come up with new and interesting features is amazing. Their compensation for new things is much higher than maintaining old things.

Yes, on an individual level people might not always chase the rewards. In fact, it's better not to always do that. In tech, it's way better to learn more to up skill ones self as that'd lead to better earns later. However, on average, what is rewarded will advance further than what is not.

Thus, when the test rolls around, nothing is memorised and then they do bad.

It's like memorising phone numbers VS keeping in the contacts app. Before I memorised tons of numbers, but now they're all on the app and I barely recall my own.

Those without employment can achieve all those things, it's just much harder and most average people would crumble.

Remember the idea that if everyone had a universal basic income. They'll be an explosion of creativity and arts as now everyone is free and liberated. Except that isn't the case. People turn to harder and harder drugs to pass the time.

Make the goal at the start and ruthlessly discard (note somewhere else) any additional ideas. I find myself giving up projects after coming up with brilliant extensions to the project. When I look at it, it's way too big and immediately demotivating.

I wouldn't really say the user experience is as good as Windows. Apps hang more often, steam freezes and restarts more. Games crash more often. All problems I wouldn't have on windows.

Even though Linux has gotten really far, I wouldn't be using it if windows wasn't so shit now.

Recycling plastic more than once is basically impossible. It's also not a free process, as grinding up plastic creates micro particles that pollute our air and rivers.

The question is whether there's any material that's cheap, malleable and mass produced enough to replace plastic.

Hdmi rejected them, display port isn't ubiquitous enough, thunderbolt (usb c) is owned by Intel.

Yes, vscode and plugins can do everything. But Phpstorm integrates everything into one coherent package. Too many random directions is more annoying.

In terms of software dev, it's quite hard to get a good app wide experience. There's just so many people working on the project. Without someone to make sure things are aligned, things fall apart into random wild patterns everywhere.

But the social impact is significant. I'm reminded of a fake story about kid kidnapping in India, that caused a mob to burn the two people that were targeted alive... They were completely innocent, the mob attacked them based on fake news. Now, that can happen enmasse.

What's the advantages of moving slow and fix things? The author mentioned he moved slow for his existing open source projects and non-profits over 15 years. Why not distil some lessons about what moving slow means and what life experiences he went through to put forth this perspective...

Half of it was just ranting about vc culture and Paul Graham...

Usually, these early warning signs don't come into effect until much much later. And by then it's almost too late. See total war nkw with the latest Pharaoh release. The debt collector has come to get their due, with interest.

It's better to enter a winnable completion rather than one that cannot be found without disproportionate effort.

Hackathons are a good example. Global, online ones tend to be long, time consuming and near impossible to win any prize. Compare that with local only, now there's a chance as the number of competitors is limited to the geographical region.

But confronting every person about, what is effectively personal preference about phone use in meetups, is quite annoying
