I'm typically very out of the loop on things but is there any particular reason HN seems to be hell bent on shitting on Zoom this week. Don't recall seeing this much vitriol for a particular product in a while.

They work on a compatibility layer for Windows applications on Linux. While "clean room" implementations are fine, it legally gets a bit dicey if you have someone who has reverse engineered Windows or seen their source code working on the project.

Every time someone ask this question I think people are forgetting that Slack was the first of these SaaS chat programs to find major success. Discord, Teams, and everything else came riding on the heels of Slack's success. While it might just be "another chat app" now, at the time Slack was an easy to setup tool with tons of integrations.

I'm talking about the APUs using integrated graphics. If you are using an APU with a discrete graphics card you defeat the purpose of buying an APU.

AMD has the worst open source drivers for Linux. Pretty sure Ryzen APUs still aren't even properly supported. I would love to use AMD on everything, truly would. They are the best for a tight budget but the support just isn't there.

I'm currently looking for a junior dev role. The issues I'm finding is

A: They expect you to have 4 years of experience or be a college degree. I have neither in software development or

B: They are these terrible "apprenticeships" where they also expect you to have 3-4 years experience, train you for 3 months on their technology stack, and make you jump through flaming hula hoops.

I see a lot of comments talking about how you train juniors and then they leave but I'm skeptical of that. From my personal perspective, I'm not looking to get trained then jump to SF for a 150k a year job. Pay me a decent wage, give me ongoing feedback, and make sure career progression is laid out and I'm good with that.

Not everyone wants to be a "hacker" as you put it. Some people just want a safe career and to make good money. Nothing wrong with that.

I must be the only one who thought this was a non-issue. A molehill turned into a mountain.

Microsoft's cash cow is Azure which means the target market are developers so anything that generates good will among devs and puts Microsoft's past further in the back of their minds benefits them.

Isn't this essentially Discord? I mean it's not a game but it's a space you login where communication is largely text with voice and video when needed.

Something I've noticed among indie devs is that they not only are terrible at marketing but they have this weird mindset about marketing that if they just make the best game possible then word of mouth will sell their game for them and they don't need to put more than the bare minimum into marketing. For some, reality sets in after release and they realize marketing matters. For others, they blame external forces and keep plodding down the same path.

Game dev here. Unless you are making GTA or some high fidelity 3D game. You are wasting your time using a language like C++. You are going to spend more time dealing with memory than actually making your game which is pointless in a 2D game.

Who are these people you speak of?

John McCain did somethings that I disagree with but the one thing I will always remember is when during the 2008 election there were multiple times during town halls and rallies that people would verbally attack Obama and McCain always shut them down without fail.

My immediate reaction to this is that this is ridiculous but there after thinking about it there might be some merit to this idea. Do you have any other resources or articles on energy efficient programming? I would like to explore this more.

Tucson. We have the University of Arizona here but most of the city is plagued with terrible sales positions and very few tech jobs. Tech jobs here are limited to Raytheon, the university itself and the small IBM office out here.

I slack and email co-workers who are within spitting distance of me. More often than not they are busy and I don't want to interrupt their flow with something that does not require immediate attention. So I'll shoot a Slack or email their way and let them get to it when they get to it.

You bought a network enabled sous-vide machine?

I looked into Ardour when looking for a linux DAW but the lack of a piano roll makes it immediately no go for me

This seemed rushed out in an attempt to capitalize on their positive PR as of late.

Github is already essentially Linkedin for developers.

I've never heard of this game. Indie game devs feel like marketing isn't something they need to do because their game is good enough on its on.

It's not.

17% for 2 years not exceeding 30k

Join a programming community and ask for feedback on your exercises/projects. Tons of communities out there. Not saying this is a non issue but the fix is pretty simple.

This would be up to the discretion of the judge however the way you word it matters. Legally there is a difference between a threat and an implied threat. Saying "pay us or we report you" is extortion. Saying "pay us and we may in good faith drop this matter" is now vague enough to not be interpreted as extortion.

There are nice people everywhere but if you travel a lot you'll soon learn that some places are a lot less welcoming than others.

I feel like this is way overblown but I think the logic here is that Mozilla claims to be an ally of privacy and internet freedom. While Google obviously, does not.

I like Pocket.

I'd be down for this.

Given that Pittsburgh has a lot of security talent, do you think it is a good idea for someone out of state to apply for security jobs there?
