I'm starting with 47 on the basis of the Jewish/Arab conflict. If we claim that the idea of Zionism started the conflict in the area then it doesn't seem like the history fully supports that idea. Jews in the late 1800s were

Sorry, can you point out exactly where I've lied and how? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the entire history of this conflict goes back to the UN partition plan in 47, which established a Jewish and Palestinian state. Which then lead

It's sad that we can't take an objective look at the facts of the matter without trying to point to one side and saying it's propaganda. Like is it so hard to say that both sides did bad things? I have no problem acknowledgin

I 100% agree with you here. Which is why it's important to have the acknowledgement that this isn't an isolated situation. There is a 'one-sidedness' for Israel against the Palestinians, in the same way that there's

I'm not sure what you're pointing to in my response to attribute it to Israeli support. I was attempting to make light of the fact that 'discussion' requires two sides. Right now both sides live in a different reality. I

The problem is there obviously isn't any discussion happening. People are so entrenched on one side or the other and that's pretty apparent by this comment section. Everyone wants to virtue signal without taking any responsibility

If you follow the CVE link included: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-20... It would seem this was patched in the Aug 12 security patch rollout.

This is where I feel like we've solved a third-order problem. If you're sorting all PRs into those two buckets then you should probably take a step back and redefine what a PR is for your organization, as both 1 and 2 make the ass

Products like these make me realize we're solving for the wrong problems with a lot of these AI solutions. I don't want you to take this as a hit to you or your product, I actually think it's extremely cool and will likely fi

I've been having conversations about this topic with friends recently and I keep coming back to this idea that most engineering work, which I will define as work that begins with a question and without a clear solution, requires a lot

The article clearly isn't directed at how expert programmers are 'supposed' to use AI, though we see at least one of those a day on the front page of HN now. The first paragraph makes it pretty obvious that the author is tryi

The answer, as with everything, is going to be that it depends on your situation and use-case. If you have a bunch of engineers who are already familiar with K8s then using a different implementation just because others told you to doesn&#x

Conversely, I think they probably have a good grasp of the basics considering they've been through them so many times. The real thing they lacked was a reasonable idea. I find a lot of early engineers have this problem where the only t

While I get your point, the analogy here would be: the shovel seller is telling you to dig a hole. You don't have to use their shovel to do it, you don't even need a shovel, but they know if you start digging, you might reach for

Except that's not really true. Take OPs example of the search bar, in most shops as a UI/UX designer you put a search bar on your figma page and hand it off to the engineer who then implements it. It's entirely up to the engi

I have a friend who works writing COBOL for a US state government, I sent him this post and this was his response: I work in COBOL for government systems. We upgraded our old mainframes to IBM Z16's, and we just got some new ones in re

Consider the space we're in. For game development you're going to have a lot of developers with a lot of different ideas about how to make a game, all utilizing the same engine. If the engine doesn't come with a feature I nee

OP 100% listen to this! You are effectively asking a bunch of strangers on the internet to understand and find a solution for the inner workings of your brain based entirely upon a couple sentences about your life. Now as codingdave points

I think this mainly comes down to how good you are at systematic thinking. For example it's really hard to build a habit without some form of reward mechanism, but once that habit is built the reward comes from the consistency of keepi

I think the point of their comment is that if you're constantly connecting to different remote servers, you're not going to want to have to change the config on each server remotely. It's the same argument for understanding b

Genuine question: How do you believe one should learn these semantics? This is more something I've been pondering myself recently, because I agree with you that the foundational knowledge for our work in any tech stack is usually the m

So unironically the answer to your first question is yes. After reading your other comments in this thread now I completely understand your perspective, and I hate Apple even more for it. Apple literally coddles their users to the point whe

To add to this, it feels to me like SWEs have the biggest egos as well without a related checking mechanism. In other engineering disciplines getting something wrong very often comes back to you as the engineer, in SWE it feels like there a

It's comments like these that make me realize we've gone full circle in the convenience life cycle. Pre-steam when you wanted to play your game you would have to download system specific dependencies to ensure your game could run

Agreed, this feels like someone put an argument about tabs vs spaces at the top of the description for an editor. Like yes, you will have to choose whether to use systemd, but the argument for or against systemd doesn't feel like it be
