What are your details for 10 chicken nuggets? Are they different to mine in Sweden?

In sweden there are only 4 chicken nuggets listed, you probably clicked on the link above which is only for the US.

https://www.mcdonalds.com/se/sv-se/naringskalkylatorn.html

For england there are 6 and 9 chicken nuggets listed https://www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/good-to-know/nutrition-ca...

The page seemingly doesn't use your location data for anything, you need to go to the specific site for your country to see the nutrition for your country.


Mine are exactly the same, and I presume because you clicked on the url I gave, which includes "/us/en-us/".

Switching to "/se/sv-se/" and navigating over to the McNuggets does give different values, however, given the nation is pre-encoded in the url, adding a google map lookup seems entirely pointless.


Probably superseded (by y’all) within a week!


Maybe confused Code Llama with Llama 2?


Right click, open in new tab? I’m surprised if most people don’t know this


I implore you to see how most people use computers more, because no: Most people don't know how to right click.

Most people don't know tabs or multiple windows, either.


If with "most people" you mean people aged 12 to 30, possibly with some form of higher education, then I grant you your surprise.

However, most people are not very skilled when it comes to computers.


Maybe this should be settled Musk v Zuck style for the internal tooling crown?

On a more serious note how does this compare with Retool? I remember that doing the HN rounds in 2019 and it’s still going


haha, not interested. Sometimes it is okay to bow out of an online conversation :) Retool and ToolJet are building in the same problem space of internal tooling. Primary difference is that ToolJet is open source. And btw, we launched in March 2021.


Open source is nice. I actually find these types of tools useful in testing where you don’t have time to do a full automated suite but you need to compare data between systems


I think this happens with experience - I’ve recently done the same after spending years chasing languages to work in


Stack vs Cabal was a huge argument where I worked with multiple teams using different build tools. Add Nix and nix2whatever, and it was more fun. Spent half my time debugging build instructions


It is not that much better in Java land. Getting builds right takes lots of resources, keeping new and old things running is not trivial.


I haven't had that experience for newer code bases. Yes, there's some ancient "works only in my IDE" stuff but that's really not how modern Java is written.

Yes, there is a disagreement about whether to use maven or gradle, but IMHO they both work reasonably well out of the box.


Right now, things are pretty good. But this is surprisingly recent. Gradle and Maven have both been good at managing dependency versions for a long time. Gradle has also been good at managing the Gradle version, via the wrapper, for a long time; Maven has equivalent wrapper now, but it's quite new, and support in the wider ecosystem is patchy (eg a TeamCity Maven build step can't use a wrapper, i don't think). Meanwhile, there is no standard way to manage JDK versions; there are SDKMAN! and asdf, and they work fine, but they aren't de facto standards. Gradle lets you specify the JDK version to build with via toolchains, but this is quite new (6.7 in 2020). I have no idea if Maven has an equivalent.


While what you say is true, the point about the JDK versions is mitigated a bit by the fact many things are backwards compatible. Although yes, if you jump from 8 to 17, you're going to run into some problems.

I'm not a huge fan of the gradle toolchain tool (I don't think gradle should be managing my JDKs and I would prefer if it could instead just fail the build if you use the wrong JDK version), but I do understand why it exists.


In my experience, if you have to build an older maven project, you have to go through a lot of painful hoops, mostly around HTTP vs HTTPS repos and java source/compiler versions. I have encountered many old projects that don't build out of the box, and of those, I've only managed to get about half working.


Yes. I've been in teams where there has been gradle vs maven arguments.

Right now the Mac (M1 or M2) users in our team can't run our integration tests. It has been suggested that if we migrate our 50-100 services to Java 17 then the tests will work for them again. Trying to do this breaks the Gradle scripts, and the errors are so vague I can't tell why it's complaining.


While I understand what you're saying, the "XY doesn't work for mac users on M1/M2" is a really pervasive problem across all technologies.


Etudes for Programmers is really hard to find to purchase - looks like it is around 450 USD on my local Amazon store and none in local libraries. Does anyone have a link to a PDF of it instead?



Thank you!


Check out Anna's Archiv, they mirror every big book page and have a very nice search engine and multiple redundant download backends


You could look on libgen.


I got asked to write a book by Packt as a lead author with two years experience in a junior position. This was a (badly) paid role of like 800 GBP or something. Take from that what you will...


Yeah, I was similarly approached (on LinkedIn) to write a book on a topic I'm nowhere near an expert nor vocal about it in social media, etc.

I'm not really in social media at all, so I take the approach as a cold-call for writing a book, which seems like a red flag to me.


Please please let this bring on a second space race! I want humans on Mars during my lifetime!


Yeah! Me too!
