AITA for serving fake meat and pretending it was real?

My two daughters are vegetarian but my husband and son are not. I'm probably what they would call a "flexitarian". My son and husband always turn up their noses at tofu or any other meat alternatives - they say it's just "weird" that it's made to resemble real meat, so it's really the concept and not the taste. There are no allergies. My family and I often make two versions of dinner - one meat, one real, and twice the amount of pots and pans. There is an equal distribution of cleaning and coo

Ask HN: To have (system) design sessions or not?

In my team, I suggest that before starting coding/implementing any middle-size/big feature (e.g., an HTTP endpoint that, supposedly, needs a new db table) the engineers involved (which usually involves all the backend engineers) should have a "design" session where:- potential high-level solutions are discussed- potential implementations are discussed (not low-level details, but at least the important/risky ones)- and once a "final" decision is made, whoever is

Ask HN: Did the term OS take on a new meaning?

Recently, I've noticed a bunch of startups using the term "OS" to describe their product.[0][1]Does OS still stand for operating system or does it have a different meaning in this context? If it's the former, I'm really confused about the usage in this context because I always assumed it was a strict computer science/engineering term. Are there other examples of computer science-y terms being used in a new context?[0]: https://www.lendis.io/en/ [

Refactoring Large Codebases

Over my career I've refactored a handful of gigantic codebases and I have a few tips.First: Version control _everything_. I mean, remove `.gitignore`, and add everything to git index before you start refactoring. The worst that can happen is when you accidentally make a change, everything breaks, and you have no way to recover to a working state.Second: If you don't already have them, write compatibility tests for all public interfaces. It is easy to fall into trap of refactoring code
