Emacs is a relic, it can take weeks of configuring to get it anywhere near as productive as something like VS Code or Jetbrains IDEs. If you want to procrastinate for a few months it's the perfect tool.
Does your user run your software with stuff mocked out? The reason for testing is getting ahead of issues before the user finds them.
I've seen code bases where a lot of the tests are actually testing the underlying framework's code (i.e. dotnet framework) after they mocked out all the dependent services. In my mind unit tests are a waste of time except for testing really complex algorithms where the there are no side effects. Automated end to end QA testing is where the effort should be spent.
They could have just used different Java/Python libraries and changed the architecture for the same result. The choice of a Programming Language alone has minimal impact on performance at that scale.
He said server side, IDE's and Android are not server side. Java dropped the ball and MS, Node, Google ate their lunch.
Have you verified your dad actually met him? He is 102 so could be confused, im sure you would have known about this years ago if it happened.
Wifi/5G guys next? Much more important invention in my opinion
No, it's actually improving and innovation is rapid. Must have been a lot of people coasting on a big salary.
Office 365, Google Keep, iCloud notes is the answer.

Never got one wrong, pretty obvious to anyone with eyes. What's the point of the site?
Is it immediate or you still working notice?
This is the slow demise of Facebook, if their pivot to AR/VR/Metaverse fails to catch on things will go sideways fast.
I think OP meant life will lead to adversities that destroy some people, others overcome it which builds a robust character.
More like tiddlywinks.
Until you can charge from empty to full in under a few mins and get 700+ real range miles EV's will remain a niche product. It's just not worth the hassle of have to plug your car in any chance you get like an old iphone.
2030 is around the year I think they will become an intelligent buy.
Houses last for centuries, a few thousand new builds in Cali is not going to make the slightest difference. I think EV will remain a niche (<15%) until they can charge as quickly as filling a tank and until their (real) range is 700+ miles.
I'd say by 2030 buying an EV would be a viable option for most. The people buying them now are usually early adopting Tesla fan-bois who are happy to pay through the nose to be a crash test dummy for self driving.
Seems like a pain, having to top your car up all the time like an old phone. Prefer one 5 min stop a fortnight to fill the tank up, until an EV can do similar they will remain a niche product.
This is false. In the UK most homes have a driveway, so fitting a charger is a no brainer.
It will also fly so no need for roads anymore, just green fields everywhere.
The Caddy website has it written
"Caddy is a powerful, extensible platform to serve your sites, services, and apps, written in Go"
That could confuse developers thinking they can only develop apps in Go with caddy?
"People drank from the 6 inches (150 mm) deep river of whiskey that is said to have flowed as far as the Coombe"
That's a lot of whisky
HN just lost 10% of it's users. Being down for hours is unforgivable in this day and age with cloud providers. Please get with the times, your a tech site for god sake!!!
HN was down for hours, no website hosted properly using cloud providers is down for more than a few minutes a year. It's trivial to set up multiple providers, multiple regions. Rather than having a few servers with some admin guy swapping out disks, really embarrassing for a so called tech site.
Hackernews, still using ancient tech, what a joke. It's trivial to host on a cloud provider and get 100% uptime for pennies.
The both must resign or the Conservatives will be routed at the next election.
You really need to use canary deployments/feature flags with this style. i.e. release to production but only for a group of users or be able to turn a feature off without another deployment.
My booking.com account was hacked and someone from China booked a hotel using my account (Im in UK). Managed to cancel it for free, changed password, logged out of all sessions, turned on 2FA and removed all cards.
Wondering if this is related.
Org mode does all this but 100x better.
It's a Linux project aimed at being a Linux OS to compete with MacOs. As per usual with the linux community it's "if you want it roll your own". That's why the year of the Linux desktop will never come.
