41,803,200 | comment | stevenAthompson | 2024-10-10T20:26:27 | null | That thing you just described where you walk over to someone's desk? Doing it to other people seems like a feature, but when it happens to YOU it destroys your flow and interrupts your work. It quickly becomes impossible to get any deep work done, and you become far less productive. It's part of the reason ticketing systems were invented.<p>It's a flaw, not a feature. | null | null | 41,802,682 | 41,802,378 | null | null | null | null |
41,803,201 | comment | jltsiren | 2024-10-10T20:26:27 | null | It's obviously possible to find niche cases where the standard containers are not good enough. But the remaining 9999 cases out of 10000 are more interesting.<p>I also had one of those, in an application that created and deleted a large number of fixed-size arrays across many threads. A naive implementation using glibc malloc ended up with a massive memory leak caused by hundreds/thousands of fragmented arenas. A thread could usually not reuse the memory it had just freed, because it was using a different arena. And because the arena was not empty, it was not possible to unmap the memory. | null | null | 41,799,065 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

It's to get through your code and get stories done.<p>People don't really get better at handling the complexity of large code bases. We are fundamentally the same organic matter that existed prior to the first computer coming into existence. So as code bases and library bases grow larger and larger, they need to be proportionately easier to read or even ignore.<p>Your code needs to be dead boring 90% of the time, otherwise you're imposing on your coworkers. And using variables before they're declared is just shitty behavior. | null | null | 41,802,451 | 41,787,041 | null | [

He recently announced that he will be deprecating the library and be replacing it with a series of written guides [1], as he no longer feels that the Lucia library is an ergonomic way of implementing auth. He posted an early preview of the written guide [2] which I found enjoyable to read and complements The Copenhagen Book nicely.<p>[0] <a href="https://github.com/lucia-auth/lucia">https://github.com/lucia-auth/lucia</a><p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/lucia-auth/lucia/discussions/1707">https://github.com/lucia-auth/lucia/discussions/1707</a><p>[2] <a href="https://lucia-next.pages.dev/" rel="nofollow">https://lucia-next.pages.dev/</a> | null | null | 41,801,883 | 41,801,883 | null | [

41,803,210 | comment | mrguyorama | 2024-10-10T20:27:20 | null | We have a "hybrid" office schedule, which I vaguely dislike and do not think is valuable, especially since my entire team is in a different time zone and I'm in a satellite office.<p>I was in the office the other week, and someone from the operations side of the project I work on started chatting me up about a recent company initiative to come up with projects to improve things, and asked my opinion about his suggestion. It was great info I didn't otherwise have and I got excited about solving his specific complaint in a productive way in the new system.<p>Except.... This was a companywide initiative. Why didn't the company have people present to all engineers instead of just submitting a powerpoint deck to leadership if they wanted collaboration on such an initiative? What if I was sick that day, would he have never talked to me about it and I never would have learned about this sticking point?<p>I'm available through email and Teams. Why didn't he message me? I message random coworkers all the time about feedback and ideas and brainstorming and questions, why didn't he?<p>Some people have no willingness or ability to communicate usefully digitally it seems, and they want to make my life worse to counteract that fact, but that's stupid! Just have a teams channel for water cooler talk! We used to have an extremely productive teams channel meant for devs to just bring up brainstorming and ask for feedback and wonder aloud and it resulted in all the supposed benefits that water cooler talk has, and it didn't waste my lunch hour!<p><i>Just talk to me</i>!

41,803,214 | comment | wk_end | 2024-10-10T20:27:32 | null | Well, sure, but "people in their life that they talk to" aren't really therapists. They're functioning quite differently - they can have a personal involvement that a therapist, ethically, isn't permitted to have. The sorts of things someone talks to with their friends overlaps with but is also often quite distinct from the sort of thing a therapist is probing for. There's no direct financial incentive to keep the "patient" coming. And they're making no claim to, broadly, help someone improve their overall mental health - people vent to their friends because it feels nice, not because it's necessarily constructive. | null | null | 41,802,965 | 41,780,328 | null | null | null | null |

Transparency logs maybe but even that wouldn't solve the issue entirely when sharing keys for the first time. The second one around unencrypted metadata is hard to assess without knowing what metadata is affected, it seems that it's nothing too problematic. | null | null | 41,798,359 | 41,798,359 | null | null | null | null |

The very size of these sterling debts is itself a protection. The old saying holds. Owe your banker £1,000 and you are at his mercy; owe him £1 million and the position is reversed.<p>Curious. That leverage lies in hope of some repayment, yes? But my very fuzzy recollection (surfed a tome on financing WW2 years ago), is the US "loans" were made without informed hope of repayment - it was just politically unacceptable in the US to say that up front. So while there were assorted small post-war repayments (often non-monetary - leases and such), the bulk was written off. Does the size of an unrepayable debt affect negotiations on the size of a token repayment? | null | null | 41,798,027 | 41,798,027 | null | [

I'm now paying most attention to my overnight rate, like in the middle of the night - but even that takes a few hours to get down to the minimum value. Fascinating to see the big spike prior to waking up that signals your body is preparing for rising.<p>Did I eat late before bed? Higher BP overnight. Drink any alcohol at all after, say, 12pm? Higher BP overnight. So it's still useful and interesting to see the overnight values change and shift around.<p>However, the contrarian in my mind says that it's not smart to ONLY pay attention to your deep rest state BP, since that only applies to a fraction of the day. And if you're running around at high values for the rest of the day, you're still potentially doing damage to your kidneys, retinas, etc - the sensitive blood vessel stuff.<p>So it's a useful device, it's useful to have the data, but it's also still a bit of black box.<p>The fact that 80% of all high blood pressure is of unknown physiological cause is a real head scratcher considering that cardiac misadventures are the leading cause of death in the Western world. | null | null | 41,800,877 | 41,799,324 | null | null | null | null |

In this case, their valuation committee wrote down the value of their equity in X to 25% of the original acquisition price. Given Twitter was about 1:4 levered on acquisition, that’s writing down the value of X as an enterprise to roughly half. | null | null | 41,802,404 | 41,801,795 | null | [

41,803,253 | comment | leetharris | 2024-10-10T20:30:41 | null | Hmm, I understand what you mean. But I think there's a difference between complexity and optionality / versatility.<p>For example, it has different ways to declare functions because assignment is generally consistent (and IMO easy to understand) and the "simplicity" of Javascript allows you to assign an anonymous function to a variable. However, you can also use a standard function declaration that is more classic.<p>But I do understand what you're saying. If anything, I think it's generally in agreement with my feelings of "Javascript doesn't need to be more complex."<p>> There are only two reasons to believe JS is simple: you know too much about it, or you don't know enough.<p>This is hilarious and probably true. I think I am the former since I've been working with it for 20+ years, but I also think there's a reason it's the go-to bootcamp language alongside Python. | null | null | 41,803,003 | 41,787,041 | null | [

41,803,291 | comment | Yizahi | 2024-10-10T20:35:37 | null | If I had to speculate about your question, I would guess that a) there was almost no digital video to matter a few decades ago, b) there was different culture regarding digital media (or maybe I'm misremembering), trailers were more tame and there was less of them overall (I'm not from USA btw), like maybe 1 or 2 before the movie, not 5+. There were much less story based TV shows with contiguous plot, which are all the fad now. Making a trailer for Seinfeld can be done easily. Now making a trailer to say Game of Thrones will most likely involve some major spoiler (or a dozen).<p>So my guess answer is - the social pressure finally rose high enough that there is now critical mass of people who care about spoilers and got spoiled a few times by official media. That's why there are more posts about this. More instances of the issue multiplied by vastly bigger market due to cheap internet and streaming. | null | null | 41,802,882 | 41,801,300 | null | null | null | null |
