Here's the RCTA report where they reproduced those conditions and showed they were feasible: https://www.rtca.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/SC-239-5G-In... The way you test this stuff is get a rad-

I think something is being lost in the reporting. The article itself mentions 2400 kcal for a 75kg woman, and then a paragraph later talks about Race across the USA runners burning 5000+ kcal. I think the key is in this sentence: " Acc

I've been working from home for about five years and vastly prefer it. I wouldn't be completely against going to the office one day per week, my previous company did this (my current company doesn't have an office in my count

> Nobody is questioning the benefits of structured logs here. The guy I replied to was literally saying we should only log plain text and that doing anything more complicated is "emblematic of the crisis the industry is in".

I don't use java and have never touched log4j, but structured logs are utterly fantastic and combined with an appropriate log server are far more useful than plain text.

On reading it my thought was the interviewer was making a small joke to put the author at ease: "Ah, you've forgotten some semis, you're probably writing a lot of swift at the moment, it's okay". But he was in the r

I'm just surprised by how many people apparently looked at dislike counts. I read this headline and thought "who cares" then saw there were 900 comments and only came in to see what the controversy was.

And mailchimp's employees could have chosen to work for any one of those if equity was important to them. No one was tricked here.

Others mentioned it, but I think a big chunk of it was it "just worked" thanks to their flash-based video player. Everyone already had flash installed, so when they went to youtube video worked. Google video needed some other plug

I'm not sure you can have another YouTube outside of an enormously profitable company like Google to bankroll it for years.

How big were the companies? And how long had they been around?

I suspect that says more about the sort of companies you've been working at. Office is far and away the dominant player in the segment.

It's also the one made by the company that doesn't want web apps to compete against their app store monopoly.

Yeah I'm done. I was still on Hangouts with one family member, but not moving to Chat or any future Google app. I'm mostly on Signal now.

It's nice to have a messaging option that isn't owned by a single company. Of course it will never succeed because Apple will never support it.

Normal people don't upgrade their OS. Eventually they'll buy a new computer and it'll have Windows 11 on it.

I moved module.py into a modules folder to clean things up and now I get: "ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package" Looks like I'm back to having to learn a bunch of stuff about scripts and modules

Yeah. Start writing a program in 'myprogram.py' as things grow do the right thing and split a function out to its own file and import it. It doesn't work. Suddenly you need to learn a whole bunch about python modules and the

Yeah I use tweetdeck on desktop and a third party app on mobile. Neither had fleets so I didn't know they existed.

From UCI mtb race regs 4.1.040 [1]: "During MTB races no traditional road handlebars may be used. Clips-on extensions are forbidden but traditional barends are authorized." If races you race in ban bar ends it's a local rule.

We had a junior who was _barely_ a net positive contributor leave us to be a senior at LinkedIn. He knew his algorithms though.

That strikes me as the actual problem. It's just not a particularly compelling product. I'm amazed they got the buzz they did.

I wouldn't quit over this, but if I was offered six months salary to leave like they were I'd go. It's free money and the job market is great.

The name list was, but that comment calls out "repeated, worsening incidents".

It would have been instantly leaked by employees, might as well get ahead of things.

Basecamp's post specifically called this out as a problem.
