You don't need ordering guarantees for diffs: apply them out of order and the final result should be the same (that's one of the key properties of CRDTs).
So why do you need timestamps? Or, why do you even need a third party server to run HME to begin with? Why not just encrypt the data and let the client figure it out?
Which one do you have in mind? For each of those three constraints mentioned, I can think of a reason why it's not like the other two, but there's not one in particular that seems to stick out especially.
> If you were offered 7-figures USD to do these kind of hours from anywhere in the world, would that make a difference?
Depends, if your work schedule leaves you so drained that it leads to extreme burnout and eventual depression, along with a string of health issues, then it doesn't matter how much money you make, because spending it won't bring you the joy back, and you may fall into a shopping addiction in order to keep you stimulated. Sometimes I think of telling my boss that I don't want a raise, I want less hours at the same rate.

tell em! i feel a lot of folks feel obligated to burning themselves out to justify their newly gotten raise.. then they get burned out and are functionless at work - or worse, making constant mistakes.
removing artificial stress from the workplace can be very powerful; valuing employees wellbeing crucial (but it involves caring, paying people, and a healthy work-life balance) - to me this means less work hours and keeping the pay consistent, plus removal of commutes (especially if the job is computer related enabling somebody to click buttons on a website so the end-user never has to leave their home couch).
happier healthier employees means they can focus more and care about what theyre doing.... otherwise, be a zombie i guess
Jornada partida doesn't tend to apply to office workers and white collar work in general. It's common to see it in small shops, but it's in steep decline even in those areas.
Having overtime pay that is a multiple of regular hourly rate is mandatory is many countries in Europe. Are you saying that European software tends to be more obfuscated? (answer: it is not).
Employees are also subject to the Working Time Directive in EU countries which sets limits to the amount of overtime that is permitted in a week and in a month. Unfortunately in most countries it's full of loop holes.
FYI you can "vouch" for dead comments if you have enough karma. But in general, if a comment is dead it is a sign that it is not worth engaging with it.
pfdietz has 13 thousand karma since 2018 so that's not a non-serious account.
perhaps in this case "he" edit-clobbered his comment because it was so unpopular, but what it says now is just off-topic and doesn't match the response:
"It had to do everything because the business case for it (that it would have sufficient ROI) required it. Even then, the business case was basically fraudulent, and the reality was even worse than the critics like Mondale were saying."
Calling 4chan an anime board is probably accurate, it started as a copy of 2chan, which was anime-focused. Taking a cursory look at the catalog of most boards on the site will confirm this, you will find an anime reaction pic with high probability.
I wonder if I'm an outlier here, or if buying from Amazon depends on where you live. I doubt I have ordered more than 10 items _ever_ from Amazon, going back 14 years (the last time I ordered something from Amazon was a travel pillow, in 2023, that you could only buy there).
It's not like I don't buy things online, but I struggle to think of something I can't get somewhere else, be it computer accessories (any other online shop or directly from the retaler) or books (order it at a local book shop or buy from the publisher), which are actually the only physical items I order online.
The shopping experience on Amazon is meh, so I can't imagine that anyone enjoys using it for every day items, like groceries.
I wouldn't say it's especially good, but most others are worse. As a start, many online shops show me a captcha from Cloudflare before saying "You have been blocked" or refuse to show me anything altogether on Firefox with RFP. Amazon has never given me a captcha to buy something, at least.
