That’s not a development fail. They need better product people maybe? Also, google has money to spend so the bar for a launch may have been much lower in the past.

Don’t the boost libraries use a bunch of namespacing? And I think you need boost to be decently useful in c++.

Is there an issue with automation costs on a small farm or is it that margins are too low? Not sure if that’s a good opportunity for companies or startups to target.

The question I have is that even with the 1st derivative at 0 (ie no inflation), the prices will still be too high. I believe prices won’t drop.

You’re assuming a lot here. Most IOT security is on shaky ground. They probably went with the cheapest vendor too. There isn’t a compromise reported but I’m willing to bet that whatever was implemented was very insecure.

Not sure about the China angle, but if he's in Singapore he may be safe. Allegedly the Singapore-US extradition does not cover money laundering [0]. Although, I'm not sure if this will count as Fraud or Money Laundering. [0]: htt

I’ve been through a couple of those. I’ve never been asked language specific questions. Most FAANG code interviews don’t care much about which language you choose. I’ve also not seen them care if you use OO or don’t. Either way works - as l

My Teams works fine on my Mac without issues. Have been using it for over a year now. Fwiw - I don’t understand why it’s hated. It’s a collaboration tool - mainly messaging and conferencing. It’s been decent at that for me.

Ummm - Modi is from one of the backward classes. Amit Shah is a Jain not Hindu upper caste. The president is a tribal woman. This whole upper caste bashing doesn’t reflect reality.

Indian royal families were mostly despots who were left to do what they wanted as long as the British got what they want. They didn’t own anything. It’s basically stolen off the backs of people. I have no love lost there or any grief at the

That’s curious. I mean why lay off ICs and ask managers to be ICs? Wouldn’t it be better to lay off managers and keep the ICs?

This is true. Here is the other thing. Promotions in corporate America are based on how well you know the hiring manager chain of command. Golf buddy? Oh he’s a great guy for a promotion. Church person - yup very ethical, let’s promote him.

I was talking about the dataclasses.dataclass annotation in 3.10/3.11. You can use slots with it. You’re right, they’re dicts unless slots are used. I read the parent comment and saying you can define types easily. But you can with dat

You can’t choose not to work in the US. You will be without health insurance. I don’t know of single US company that allows their workers on their board. I’m not against it. I think it’s an awesome idea.

Why is that an OpenAI problem? It’s something the Kenyan government needs to solve. I fail to see why every company needs to subscribe to an SJW mindset. They paid decent wages by Kenyan standards it seems. They did not force, exploit or ab

How would it behave in a place like Chicago where we've had recent weather events that take the temperature from 40F to -10F in a couple of days? Will the system catch up that fast without ducts?

Web servers and http enabled services can limit the length of headers and url. While this can be done it runs the risk of having surprises when unknown limits are encountered. Most of these limits are buried deep in docs, not easily visible

I’m Hindu, not Buddhist. But I don’t teach my children to meditate either although meditation is part of Hinduism. In fact I’d volunteer that most Hindu’s don’t meditate. It may be that it’s similar for Buddhism as well. There’s a lot of ch

Cry it out is unnatural in my very humble opinion. It's a solution designed to get mothers back to work in a nuclear family. Children are a lot of work when little. It is extremely hard on the mother. There is also the big breast feedi

What needs to be understood is that people are conditioned by their times and the company they keep. It does not mean they didn't do great things we should refuse to acknowledge. Yes, there should never be a hero complex. Flaws should

Please don't do Jugaad. I haven't met a single software engineer from India who thinks Jugaad is a good thing. It's not. If it's done it's meant to surmount bureaucratic or financial hurdles, not as a software devel

Does freedom allow you to block apps? I have it and it works nicely for safari and my Mac. I haven't been successful in trying to have it block apps. Maybe because I have an ancient iPhone.

This made me smile. We did this with our elder daughter (now 12). It worked and then the pandemic came where they were given their chromebooks to take home. Luckily only YouTube was allowed. But still it did cause quite a bump in screen usa

I’ll second that. I’ve been doing python for a while and haven’t used the mixed type list. I’ve actively avoided doing something like that. The situation doesn’t come up often.

My personal take is I would go a level higher and define data consistency and availability requirements. Provide them to dev teams and if the teams need help meeting them I provide recommendations. I generally try to keep design out of arch
