Re:Tracking Java Native Memory with JDK Flight Recorder
on Monday December 18, 2023 @12:39AM (#38679578)
debugging native calls in itself is also painful. I have switched to using async-profiler (https://github.com/async-profiler/async-profiler) instead of JFR for most of my usecases.
A. it tracks native calls by default B. it can track wall time as well C. you can have neat interactive flamegraphs

I recently came across the post where I learnt about moving the windows in the mac using Cmd + ctrl + click. I wonder how many such unknown shortcuts are there that make life easier.

Re:Ask HN: Why is GCP not as used as AWS/Azure?
on Wednesday February 02, 2022 @06:47AM (#30176319)
I agree with the first point but can you cite some examples for the second. I personally feel they are/should be most developer friendly company considering they are purely engineering driven.
Ask HN: Why is GCP not as used as AWS/Azure?
Is it because it is not developer friendly or doesn't have good devops support or they are just not aggresive in marketing?
Ask HN: Gradle or Maven for Java Projects?
Or is there a third option? Please elaborate.

Do you have paid subs for all of them? If yes, where do you manage so many payments?
Ask HN: How many newletters/articles do you read daily on average?
I have 5-10 newsletters. Combined that with top posts on hackernews, I sometimes am not able to catch up. Do you read a lot of articles daily and if yes, do you set aside a time specifically?Do you read all articles 1 by 1 or in non-linear fashion, skipping unimportant bits.

Ask HN: Do you think Wealth Inequality is solvable?
I am not asking about the Poverty.I think poverty is a solvable problem. What I am asking about is wealth inequality e.g. Richest 1% holding 50% of the wealth. Do you even think if this is a problem? IMO, no matter what you do, inequality will still be there since there are a subset of people who are overly ambitious and will do anything to reach the top.

I have been using - WORDS, CHIME, FAULT for the first 3 words. Eliminates all vowels. Then I either proceed to guess the correct position of letters if I have 2-3 yellows from the first 3, or proceed to eliminate consonants.

Ask HN: Split 10 days timeline between design, code and test for a feature
Just curious to understand where do people prefer spend most of their time. Do you prefer a near perfect architecture before moving on to code, or do you start code with a bare-bones design. Do you write tests as you code or do you write tests after the code it done.
Ask HN: My PC sometimes boots up but sometimes doesn't, what can be the reason?
I have a personal Dell Alienware laptop 2017 model which has started behaving very weirdly. It sometimes just crashes and then doesn't boot up for next 2-7 days. And after that it starts working again as normal and may not even crash for like 1-2 weeks or may crash the next day.

Suppose 10 days were allotted to add a feature on which solely you are working on. How many days will you allot to create class/architecture designs, coding and testing the feature. Feel free to elaborate the approach for each although not necessary.

Re:Leetcode has taught me that I'm a bad engineer
on Wednesday January 05, 2022 @12:19AM (#29805441)
Exactly and that is precisely why the current interview system is bad. The companies want candidates to pretend they just invented these algos on the spot and haven't solved like 50 similar questions on leetcode to remember the approach.
The algorithms are supposed to be fun and deriving them a group exercise.

Do they really? It seems to be blown up by media. Talented people are still applying in droves for a job at FB. The competition has definitely increased with good options out there for candidates but hiring trouble is bit preposterous.

This thing is ruining my experience as well. I don't want any time of suggestions in my feed. I curated it so that there's only people of tech who talk mostly about tech but my feed is pure garbage now filled with political comments, holidays pics etc. of people I don't even follow.

Re:Ask HN: Do you validate your ideas before start coding?
on Friday December 24, 2021 @10:50AM (#29674548)
I think it depends on the idea. Generally, you should patch together something as a beta and roll it out to community/friends/family for feedback. But if it is something that will take almost a year for a beta then you should spend time validating as well.
