debacle

Your linked source is a completely different issue, which is that there are other tariffs designed to artificially limit trade. These are de facto quotas on trade.

Before these new tariffs, Canadian tariffs on US goods were more than double US tariffs on Canadian goods, as a percentage. If we want to eliminate tariffs, the proper outcome would be for Canada to lower its preexisting tariffs. I don't think anyone in the Canadian government has proposed that solution.

Squarespace is a great balance between having no website at all and WordPress.

Wix is overly complicated bloat, and you are better off just using WordPress if you need the bells and whistles or Squarespace if you don't.

Thank you for commenting here. Your opinion weighs a lot for many of us.

I am working through something like this right now. Rev growth is starting to slow, our headcount is growing too quickly, and the current CEO seems hyper focused on a raise but doesn't understand the current funding market (or how poor our financials look).

I have decided to "quiet quit" and start hunting for something better. Who knows, something might change, but I doubt it.

The intent I think is "Lets refactor the syntax of the router so we can add more functionality without creating a boondoggle." At least from what I have seen.

I disagree with this a little bit. Yes, a lot of the react-router changes are a PITA especially since some of the breaking changes are non-obvious. But most of the changes have been syntactical, and seemingly logical.

A bigger gripe with react is that everything is so interdependent that things like react-dom and react-router might as well just be part of react - if you update one, you need to update the other anyway.

My son had a testicular torsion. Normally, this is 10/10 pain and vomiting and fever and shock. All sorts of awfulness. If you didn't know it, you would have assumed his pain was no more than 4/10. It took an insistent pediatric nurse to convince us that something very serious was going on and that he needed to go to the ER right away.

The problem is that, despite medical science making advances abound, doctoring as a profession changes exceptionally slowly, and most doctors (especially male doctors IME) take an adversarial approach to patients who have questions.

I have a relatively common autoimmune disease. I have had much better experiences with NPs than doctors in explaining that certain medications are contraindicated for people with my disease.

Ego has always been a massive issue in medicine. I wonder if this is exclusive to the US, or if we see it everywhere.

I have seen some local suits for smaller PPP loans.

I never worked harder in my life than when I worked for myself.

Not sure why you are being downmodded. The abrupt about face of Facebook and Amazon/WaPo (and probably Apple, but I haven't seen any evidence there), and even the change in Musk over the last 10 years, shows one of a few realities:

1. Tech CEOs, probably like other CEOs, are easily bought.

2. Tech CEOs are terrified of retributive and/or deserved antitrust action and/or regulation changes from Trump.

3. Tech CEOs never really were the progressive allies of the Left, but needed Trump to make it safe for them to drop the mask.

The likely reality is a combination of all three.

But the best end-user software — the kind for non-technical people — is… sadly… not open-source.

Not open source yet. I firmly believe (and we have lived experientially in the last several decades) that all software will eventually be supplanted by an open source solution that becomes the industry standard.

Do you not have enough supports/standoffs on your mobo? Just because your case comes with 6 doesn't mean you only need 6.

I think at this point in the wave, the criticism starts to pop up here and there, but it's still decried. In 12-18 months, the momentum of the white hot VC injections over the last few years will sustain the wave for a time. By 27 or 28, the unicorn payoffs in the space will arise, and by 30 "everyone" will know that AI has been overhyped for a while.

This person is just trying to get ahead of the game!

It's clear that OpenAI has peaked. Possibly because the AI hype in general has peaked, but I think moreso because the opportunity has become flooded and commoditized, and only the fetishists are still True Believers (which is something we saw during the crypto hype days, but most at the time decried it).

Nothing against them, but the solutions have become commoditized, and OpenAI is going to lack the network effects that these other companies have.

Perhaps there will be new breakthroughs in the near future that produce even more value, but how long can a moat be sustained? All of them in AI are filled in faster than the are dug.

You want to be a performer. Corporate work is performative, but it's not for performers.

Startups are nice because the environment you are describing quickly leads to a failed startup. I've identified recently that that's a preference of mine. The need for survival does wonderful things to organizational alignment.

You are very smart, you appear driven. You either need to piss your drive away, or find a role where you can perform to the degree that you desire.

React is pretty universal at this point. Seems like Vue is a second followed by a smattering of other libs.

You should learn React. Everyone (including non-web devs) should probably have a basic understanding of React state management. Back in the day when JQuery was the top library, everyone was free to use whatever lib they wanted (and things besides jQuery were better for certain things), but it was also somewhat expected that everyone would have some experience, even in passing, of jQuery.

The only neighbors in eyeshot of my compost pile are the ducks, and I don't think they really mind.

I've heard mixed things. Most folks recommend keeping human + pet waste out of compost. It depends on how hot your pile is and how quickly you move it into your garden.

For starters, that USB splitter would be single use, assuming it didn't melt before your toast was done.

You could make a USB toaster, it would just take a lot longer...

Thank you for introducing me to a new niche subreddit.

1. Treat people like adults.

2. Set clear expectations.

3. Train aggressively, and prune judiciously.

#1 is very complex. You could probably write a whole book just on responsibility and accountability. In most (even very small ones) companies, it seems like personnel problems eventually become organizational problems and eventually technology problems.

Is it using something like websockets to stream data?

Always wanted to try our Blazor, but there are weird barriers (as a layman) to understanding the client-side lifecycle. Maybe just opaque abstractions that don't seem necessary at first glance.

I would say with regards to bureaucracy, no one has put it more succinctly than Trotsky, though complaints about the bureaucracy harken back to the Ancient Greeks.

I have met many, many politicians in my day. 95% of them are feckless, spineless, covetous cretins. But the bureaucrats are worse.

I take the lowest dose (200mg/mcg?) from Amazon.

For anyone interested in their own depression, some anecdotal, unscientific non-medical advice that I received from HN about a year ago:

5-HTP is a serotonin precursor that you can take in low doses to help do a lot of different things. For me, it lowered food cravings and impulsiveness, balanced out sleeping anxiety, vastly improved my gut health, and really helped with my depression. I have a positive mood about me that I haven't had since I was a teenager, and I am so vastly enjoying life today, despite the trials. Before starting a daily regimen of 5-HTP, I was worried that I might one day lose myself to suicide. Now I treasure every day. Truly changed my life. Maybe it will change yours.

Again this is completely anecdotal, unscientific non-medical advice.
