HN user
- Anyone can edit it
- Less training; org probably has someone who’s used Wordpress before. (Yes, training. You must deal with the reality of the typical user.)
- In the developing group or agency, anyone can work on the theme if you install a theme builder. An agency can put a cheaper content marketer or designer on it, rather than a developer.
It’s pretty easy to catch someone fumbling with incognito if you can suddenly enter a room. (Not that it wouldn’t also be easy to catch someone clicking this button.)
It's both poor substance and style, in most cases (and this case.)
Pointing out they generated it at least encourages them to write a shorter article that says what they meant.
Sure; this isn’t my first account either. I did ask for forgiveness for the assumption!
Forgive me for assuming you’ve only been reading a handful of years based on your registration date. I think everyone gets up to speed with it and finds less to read as topic familiarity, muscle memory, knowledge of community tropes matures. Everyone is different as far as how many articles will interest them. If you joined when a topic that greatly interested you was popular, then you’re especially going to feel that falloff. Regardless, there must still be many stories of the type that interest you. My recommendations are to slow down reading a bit, so you see more new stories when you read HN, and to subscribe to something like Hacker Newsletter that’ll pull together the most interesting stories every few days.
I use it exclusively, but still in colocated mode so it’s compatible with contributors who use git, and GitHub. I’ve run into a few issues with colocated (had to fix staleness several times per year, for example) but compatibility overall hasn’t blocked me.
Emperor was a great game. My only real complaint was the five sub-factions seemed to be imbalanced. I’d like to revisit to see if the was missing something.
That's what I did for much of it. Currently on v205, though. :)
I did it by making a huge database of allowlisted bash and having hooks check each one against the list. It makes a recursively parsed tree so it can handle gnarly blocks of bash. And then it outputs to the agent what failed and tells it to break it up next time. Then, in agent instructions, I impress on it strongly to use composable bash tools rather than trying to write python/ruby/perl scripts.
It was a bit of work, admittedly, but it's picked up a few users and I learned a lot from designing the research process and parsing the syntax trees.
I actually want to be alerted about everything that's not auto-approved, though. With safe commands auto-approved, it's much less noisy. I think it's important to read your code, as it develops, not just at the end, and understand what agents are doing.
Florida sales tax is around 8%. Drinks are $2-3.
Excellent post; thank you and please continue what you do.
That would be interesting and could start simply. CDBaby was what, $20 per record and self-serve. Maybe each record on this new platform costs $200 and is accompanied by an employee-uploaded video of the artist uploading the record.
You really should pay for that expectation. As you describe it, the EA would not be able to schedule any evening activity that took her away from electronics for too long.
The law seems clumsy, but the principle of availability being a sacrifice by the employee is sound.
I meant to say they usually aren’t a rush for non-ace students, just a full hour. You have to work diligently, though. Competitive tests excepted, obviously.
It’s fine to erase or use scratch paper on an essay test.
You don’t write the test to fill the 60 minute slot. You time it so students are able to finish early if they’re really good. Slow ones need the whole time but can still do well if they understand the material being tested.
There probably is something about how you come across. It's a hard sell when any principles you hold around intellectual property or commerce sound like post rationalizations for a grudge or a hoarding hobby or that you think people who stream are stupid--I experience one or more of these in typical IRL conversations about this. I'm not saying you're wrong, but there's a sensible-sounding rhetorical style that's more effective. And you do kind of have to start with understanding that, for most people, these purchases or subscriptions don't mean much.
New signals of trustworthiness will emerge (are already emerging.)
More shots at the big names is not going to entrench them, even if most of those shots don't go anywhere.
The big names also need to stay competitive against internally developed solutions inside what would have been their bread-and-butter enterprise customers, so they have to compete on features and quality like indies.
That’s a good point; it depends on the extent to which you can make either invisible changes or you can roll out improvements that don’t require coordinated communication.
QA should be happening either way.
I like your practice there but productions are known to be on a schedule in a way that many job postings are not. If you apply for positions with more turnover (e.g. manufacturing line) you’ll see more predictably timed communication.
Ideally, you could find pieces of that 10k that would also work as a standalone improvement to the app. I understand that team cultures can vary, but doing small features or refactors in service of a larger goal is nice, because while the reviewer knows you must be up to something, they can still approve your preparatory PRs as face value beneficial.
Stay where? Successful and helpful?
Clever! For bonus points, fix my typing when my hands are misaligned by one letter. :)
I would call those reasoning comments or reasoning artifacts. They’re supposed to be internal comments and they ended up in the code.
It’s a rant; I accept that and understand its point.
I look at the tip/patronage soliciting differently because there are some people who really feel the costs of their hobby or side project hanging over them. It can be due to tight budgets, or how they were raised, or perhaps their significant other objects. Asking for tips justifies their efforts, whether people give or not. I want to see their efforts, so don’t mind that they ask.
The “coffee” thing specifically is a bit annoying, and often asking too little. I suspect few people tip, and if they will tip, they’re just as likely to give more. A smaller number of people tip a lot so do want to give small amounts each time. Most don’t. I’d be happy to hear if occasional tipping of a few dollars is more widespread than I think it is.
Yes. There are two values (privacy and competition) that are directly in conflict here.
DMA is a not a privacy-oriented law.
Where do you live? There should still be price competition on types of inverters, aesthetics, focus on highest ROI, etc.
I live in a heavily subsidized state and quotes ranged from (after subsidies/incentives) 5-6 year ROI to 20-25 year ROI.
Maybe frequently was the wrong word; I would think spring-loaded would be designed for a lot of cycling between quick cuts and some other tasks, and you didn't want to leave the blade open.
Fixed blade would be best if you were constantly opening boxes and/or you could set your knife down open. And yes, for doing tasks where you are doing longer or more strenuous cutting (carpet is a great example.)
They money is fun to grouse about, but I thought the complaint about the low utility was the interesting bit.
That fancy box cutter looks high utility; what don't you like about it besides the price? The retraction seems designed for frequently opening boxes, but not constantly. (I open few boxes and have a bog standard box cutter; I haven't used Studio Neat's or OLFA.)
Just write a regulation that every game developer has to make a great game, not charge too much, support it for years, and give it away for free as soon as it's not popular. That way, we'll only have great games and archives of great free games.
