The thing kinda is, that it's not only male/female thing, but race's also involved.

Biases biases and biases.

I think we should try to reach equal opportunity by providing access to edu, mentors maybe, an ability to prove themselves, not this kind of "discrimination".

>Hiring a white male is basically a nonstarter without prostrating yourself before HR

I struggle to believe what I'm reading.

I'm just curious what people of future will think about this.

It has name

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_paradox

What do you mean, what's wrong with those charts?

Would there be some better/more precise information shown if they were anchored at 0?

I'd say it's on Firefox.

maybe CERN? maybe ASML/TSMC/AMD/Intel/Nvidia?

If you're having fun, then what's wrong with that?

It's pretty hard to start game which's fun is based on PvP, yet you have no players

so bots are the way to go I guess

It didn't (yet?)

>a not so subtle humble brag.

I'm not sure how could I rewrite it to avoid that feel, yet still include enough details to let people kinda evaluate whether it was reasonable or not

Probably Charlatan here, AMA

Our $company lacked of automation of some process and after months of wasting hours doing it manually I decided to automate that.

I had no exp with real ci/cd tools and thought our process was already crazy enough (using annoying source control tool, heavy dependency between compilation and external soft's specific versions) that we need to build our tool to manage it.

I built MVP as CLI and it worked. As time passed everybody wanted to add tons of stuff to it - like Web GUI, history, logs, managing software versions when creating binaries and even performing code analysis (because we were heavily dependent on 3rd software we needed to detect some colissions)

Overall, it saved us from doing hundreds manual, sometimes error-prone tasks per year. It allowed us to add customizations like that code analysis using compiler's API

But the other hand maybe we could just use some Jenkins or some shit and achieve similar stuff without having to invest time into it and maintain - it's combo of Visual Studio + MS Build + Team Foundation Version Control + .NET Framework, so stuff tends to make problems from time to time

I feel that despite all good things that this project brought, then we could just use existing tool and maybe achieve similar results, but I don't know for sure.

I feel like sometimes I used this project to escape boring CRUDing and used it as a learning opportunity - maybe I abused it too much?

Or maybe should I treat it as "Google's 20%"?

I believe it's form investing into your employees

People will mess with fancy tech, crazy projects and not only learn from it, but also feel less burnout

>This makes me happy. The order is exactly as it should be, much to the disappointment of the Rustaceans.

Why it makes you happy? it's a reminder how much we're losing performance, energy and stuff when we're writing in safe/expressive/easy to use languages like Java, C#, Python yada yada

I wonder how popularity of "exotic" languages increases when AoC's around

F#, Lisp and so on

I will play devil for lulz:

>My physical appearance should have nothing to do with my hireabilty

but actually why?

you know - if you have two equally skilled people...

and one of them has tattoos on 90% of his/her body and your company works for banking industry, then is it pros or con?

Are SpaceX salaries actually "ridiculously high"?

How about running heavy computations for somebody else for some $$?

"ROI"

You mean Discord implementing XMPP?

nothing about tech stack they want?

>We all know over here that IT is not the sunshine and flowers industry it sometimes looks like from outside. There's plenty of psychical and mental health hazards.

On one hand

in which other industry you can:

Learn everything in your free time and all you need is e.g 300-400$ PC? (8gb ram, some cpu, nvme m2 disk)

Optional remote work with possibility to relocate to other countries

Huge salaries

Huge demand

On the other hand...

In which other job you gotta put this much effort in your free time?

I kinda mean this [If doctors were interviewed like software developers] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_aDz-AcCmY

it's just cs math, not cs?

Haha

There are kinda popular video(s) called "Polish Cow" which's basically animated cow dancing with this "hard song" in the background that people are not familiar with.

I bet it has something to do with this.

Probably those chinese manufacturers weren't aware or didn't care what does this song actually mean, but they just wanted to use something popular (maybe at that time)

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=polish+cow

even top comment on youtube says

>guy: puts his heart into a song about addiction and depression

>the internet: hehe funny cow go brrr

When it comes to naming, then from time to time I tend to look at C# and I got impression that there are:

"Language Design Team"

"Compiler/Roslyn Team(?)"

"CLR Team(?)" yada yada

so more product/role-driven naming schema

What's so bad about Moodle?

I mean it's not shiny, but it worked fine, what else should app like that do?

Skew the odds then

If you added "Categories" to HN (group by business, startups, programming, yada yaa)

added notifications on reply

removed three-like structure

and allowed threads to be bumped

then you'd have forum which would mean that you'd have longer and deeper discussions

>How different is really microblogging from forums?

From user standpoint?

Significant.

No any "modern" approach, let it be - reddit, twitter, hackernews, fb groups, discord, mailing lists maybe? gets even close when it comes to quality/merit of discussions that forum can enable

On the other hand what choices do they have?

at Edge e-voting devices protected with military grade cryptography using elliptic lines,

backed by blockchain based auditable backend and stored in webscale database via JSON over HTTPs secured by certified authority

> microsoft-edge links are just https links Microsoft wants to open in Edge.

or... user wants to open in Edge.

HN seems to overreact on this hard

If user clicks on e.g "Open in Edge" button and FF intercepts URL with Microsoft's "microsoft-edge protocol" and opens FF, then what's so shocking about the fact that MS is not happy about this?

inb4: I'm saying it as a FF user.
