That's a great blog post. Very transparent. I'm especially glad he's willingly giving up cheaper alternative for having more value from his services. I just would have liked some more details on what it means technically... :

That's actually exactly the reason why it's unstable: clean code from scratch that doesn't cover all the edge cases yet. We SE keep whining about legacy code but forget that they made it to legacy for a reason...

> If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic. That seems to apply here.

I'd say two things, the first is that if you're not paid, you don't have that much incentive to contribute hardly so it's no surprise that most OS projects are maintained by a handful of (great indeed) highly motivated d

Very interesting. But that probably doesn't translate to professional projects where people have more incentive to contribute and core contributors the obligation to onboard and mentor new hires...

If you read the article you'd realize they're still late compared to western nuclear technology. It's great that they invest a lot in the technology but that's both wrong and premature to award them any achievement.

That's a great story... And a perfect timing for an amazing marketing campaign with seasonal shipping starting next week.

I struggle to understand why these random ingredients put together are called meals... Not for me!

And now I eventually understand what "pulp fiction" means. Great article indeed.

Well if I don't pay and only fill a form, it seems free to me.

Funny to speak about security and a GDPR fine for a website that hasn't HTTPS activated...

Am I the only one a bit perplex that we focus on "men lagging their older counterpart" while women have employment rate 15% lower than men?

Very interesting indeed! But those guys could use some cooking lesson for frying eggs... :-D

Wow we don't live in the same world here, programmer actually is mainly the job of automating tasks, so when I'm finished automating things, I automate other things. I'm not placing bugs that would be so easy to uncover by my

Well it seems that if your work can be so easily automated, we shouldn't call you coder in the first place. That's an interesting debate, but basing the article on 2 anonymous reddit posts whose authors couldn't be reached to

Funny that I get downvoted for asking precisions... That's HN now!

That is just not true, it's quite easy to fire somebody in France, you just have to pay correctly for settlement.

I do agree that low salary is an issue, but it's improving. On the other hand, it's very hard to compare everything, when you're young, single and healthy, it's a no brainer that you should take your chance in the US. Bu

I agree the lack of evidence doesn't mean it's untrue. But it doesn't mean it's true either. So here we have to believe the story of a man. Some people do, some don't...

I especially doubt so much the anecdote about the she-wolf that fed him like Mowgli ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNcBAI6iOn0 ). That's just what people want to hear and is totally in tune with the guy that seeks soc

Bullshit jobs are the new "I closed my Facebook account" articles these days. Everybody talks about it and tries to say it's a symptom of our society going wrong. I personally prefer bullshit than dangerous jobs. And technolo

That's just not true, people tend to desire less and less kids, a lot of people deliberately chose to have no kids, something that was unthinkable several decades ago.

That's an amazing news! Being aware that education costs a lot is important, but being able to afford education is paramount. Having to sacrifice 10 years of first jobs savings to reimburse the student loan is just insane. Especially c

The article and the videos it contains are amazingly clear. Cannot wait for the first results of that mission! I'm always amazed by NASA great endeavors, and how these scientists can be so sure their probe are not going to melt...

I understand the enthusiasm for Rust, but I'm growing tired of these project advertised as "written in Rust" like it proves a point in itself.
