I subscribe to sunbasket. Here's some reasons.

I like cooking

I don't have time to shop frequently

I like meal planning, but I don't like meal-planning 7 days a week

I don't care to go out to eat and spend a bunch of time dealing with ordering, waiting for the check, transportation, and so on.

Sunbasket costs me about $22 per meal for two people. That is _significantly less_ money than a restaurant meal of similar quality. I could go to KFC and get crap for less than $20, but the value proposition is still quite good for me. My wife and I typically eat out once a week (or order delivery), I take care of meal-planning three other meals a week, and sunbasket handles the mid-week meals where I have enough time to cook but don't want to mess around with shopping. It's all organic and mostly sourced locally to me (although they deliver all over, I live in SF). Personally? I'd probably pay more for it. It is already a good value proposition.

The only complicating factor is that when I shop and prep a meal from the store, I usually make 3-4 servings and thus have leftovers, which doesn't happen. So, with sunbasket I tend to buy more lunches. It is definitely more money than if I just went to the grocery store, but it saves me a trip a week, so there's that.

I think your comment is pretty good, and I don't know what's up with the downvotes :welp:

That said, as good as your point is about African American culture, it's far from our youngest; there's also the Chinese and Italian migration waves, the Armenian refugee wave... On the west coast, you would definitely also have to consider the effects of Japanese internment during WWII. That might be the most recent, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was another wave between now and then.

This doesn't detract from your overall point, or the severity of the effect on specifically African American culture, but I don't think you can call that America's youngest culture.
Their interstitials are the worst. They also don't even appear to contain any ads, just a quote of the day? WTF?
If I were in charge of a giant company I'd hire every 50,000th applicant or whatever, just so we had a control to see if our interview process was worth the time.
The R&D credit is not limited to research undertaken for technological discoveries. I'm still not sure where you're getting that idea from.
If you want to walk/bike to work, why would SF be your choice? About the only good thing is temperature. The hills... OMG the hills. It's also a decent-sized city, so not safe to be exposed to crime like that. One needs a car, not that there is parking.

There are apartments in Redwood City. Get one, and the walk/bike experience should at least beat SF. I may be wrong, but the place seems flatter at least.

I'm out in Indialantic, FL. It's hot but flat, and houses near work are affordable. I walk 0.9 miles to work, and that's only because I wanted a 4-bedroom on almost half an acre.

Maybe the problem is the desire you have for "young". That ought not be a job requirement. If all the young want to live in SF, you can still hire old people.
It's not that hard jeez
I am not familiar with that book, but I am well aware that our mental models about the nuclear family are basically rooted in a very brief window of time when "The Boys" came home from WW2 and women went home en masse to be homemakers etc.

I actually blog some about the truly terrible effect this has had on our housing situation because we are still basically being haunted by the ghost of this brief anomalous time that we think is normal or something.

I think it gets romanticized because it was a step up generally speaking over the terrible poverty that was the norm before that. People seem to not recognize that fact, so it usually isn't worth trying to comment on.
> Copying files with ssh/scp is fine, but requires previous arrangements and an account on the target machine, and how do you bootstrap the account?~

Assuming that you have openssh and rssh installed, you bootstrap like this:
useradd -m -g users -s /usr/bin/rssh tmp
passwd tmp
edit /etc/rssh.conf and uncomment allowscp
Share the password with the party you want to exchange data with. Make sure your ports are open.

The use case I see for wormhole is if you're working purely in the python ecosystem. That's it.

You're free to disagree of course, but I prefer ssh, since it's peer-to-peer end-to-end encrypted,

Doesn't surprise me. I don't want to make too harsh of accusations, but in my head, it feels just short of fraud. Not growing fast enough? Shrinking? Give a third world nation free internet to become users and pad the numbers. Tell advertisers and investors you're growing, but not precisely how and where.

Again, that's just my first instinct, not an accusation.
Its cheaper to house and feed them in the minimum than have to pay to jail them or repair the damage they do on the street.

If society weren't so hostile to some people, maybe they wouldn't shut off to participating in it. And even for those that don't - it makes financial sense to macroeconomically attempt to minimize the frequency of economic drop-outs but microeconomically it is much better to not just ignore the ones you have and force them on the street, because they cause a lot of property damage, which lands them in jail, where they got over a hundred thousand a year to keep imprisoned.

Cool! Thanks for the hard work, and the insight. For those of us that don't speak Verilog, do you have a paper or some other writeup of the things that make MMIX less than ideal? Other than the scaling up/scaling down. Does that primarily consist of the 256 registers? Neither more or less?
Or maybe Linux/Android on the desktop? Maybe all the PCs out there used for cash registers,ATMs, etc will run locked down Android systems in the near future instead of Windows.
By that logic then red meat, sugar, kale, broccoli, fat and a host of other foods are also bad for you.
Pen-tests show the presence if vulnerabilities, not their absence.

To make secure systems, we need to take the (very) difficult road of working our systems bottom up and proving the absence of vulnerabilities and defining the boundaries of safe operations.
> In reality a minority of homeless people (~35%) have drug, alcohol, or metal problems.

Citation needed.

In reality, when people are complaining about homelessness, it's the chronic homeless, not temporarily homeless. 1/3 have drug problems and 2/3 have mental or physical disabilities. Those 1/3 and 2/3 pools don't perfectly overlap, so the amount of people who have neither drug nor disabilities is very small.

It's fascinating to compare a tool like this to the direction the Macintosh actually took — though Jef Raskin conceived the project in the early days of Apple, the graphical user interface took its design cues from the research at Xerox Parc instead. The Humane Interface is Raskin's book on the principles behind a product like this: focus on spatial context with a zooming UI, be forgiving with ubiquitous undo, provide one way of doing things, never trap the user in a mode. A lot of those ideas are embedded in the interfaces we have today, but they feel entirely orthogonal to the discoverability that a Parc-style GUI provides.
I think your key concern with restaurant food should be nutrition, not hygiene. Hygiene in restaurants is typically good enough to not be much of a problem (and the human body is resilient enough to take a bit of occasional rough treatment).

But you don't know how much sugar, fat, or just empty calories are being put in your food to make it just a little more presentable or appetizing. That is what you have better control over when you cook yourself.
Figure out a way of discouraging renters and landlords then. Disallow people from renting homes out or something.
> I've seen people stymied as to how they could possibly make a phone call without their phones. Payphone.

Ubiquitous cell phones have caused most of these to be removed.

Phones becoming more loaded with sensitive personal material than wallets have made people reluctant to loan them to anyone not a close friend.
Chipotle is nowhere near the quality I can produce in my own kitchen, even setting aside its recent correlation with e coli outbreaks. This price is also precisely the same price point (around $10 per person per meal) that these services provide. And when I cook at home, I don't have to drive anywhere, or accept the enormous amount of extraneous salt and cooking fat that tends to get used in those situations.

Software Development Tools Are a Web Developer's Life Saver
yup, except with netcat:

* the network-side attacker gets to see and modify all your data
* the receiver must have a public IP address
* the receiver must tell something to the sender, which is the opposite of the direction the data will flow
* you have to transcribe your IP address and port number to the other person, which I always get wrong (so many meaningless numbers!)
* you don't get much confirmation that all the data arrived, or that it arrived accurately

The wormhole code uses a wordlist that was carefully designed (not by me.. I'm using the PGP wordlist, as used by PGPfone and Zfone) for accurate spoken transcription in noisy environments. So it's more likely that they'll type in the right thing.

Doh! My error.

Thanks. I ... cannot say how absolutely abhorrent I find that stuff. Even when pointed out in articles.

I'm sensitised to it in part because I've taken extreme pains to block as much of that as possible. A harder task than it should be.

While I do think the grandparent is being a little too conservative, there is no "trying and getting rejected" here. This is not a credit that you apply for, it's part of your income tax filing. The only case where it would be reviewed is if you were audited by the IRS, and if they then disallowed your credit, you would be liable to repay that amount, plus interest and potentially plus late-payment penalties. AND, you would likely be flagged as a target for future audits ...

In general, when you claim a deduction on your US income taxes (personal or business) you want to be pretty darned sure that the deduction is going to stand up to an audit.
I'm interested by your experience because I've always wondered if using one of these services to learn how to cook doesn't really reflect how most people actually cook in their home which is not to really have strict recipes but improvise based on what you have in the kitchen. I'm always surprised by my partner who can't follow a recipe to save her life. Somehow it always all falls apart. On the other hand, when she's throwing together a dinner she's an improv master balancing flavour, nutrition, against a limited set of ingredients. I'm not sure if practicing recipes will develop that intuition but that's her default.

On the other hand my parents, who aren't good cooks in general, started using hello fresh. While it didn't really change the way they cooked, it broadened the range of ingredients and spices they used while teaching them to actually add salt to things and all of that improved their cooking immeasurably.
Deduction applies to pre-tax income, and is based on your tax rate. If, for example, you have a deduction for $100, and your effective tax rate is 20%, your tax liability is reduced by $20. Deductions also generally don't carry over if unusuable.

A credit applies against your tax liability. So if you have a tax credit for $100, your tax liability is reduced by $100. Credits generally do carry over to future years to the extent unusable in the current year.

Whether a credit is preferable to a deduction depends on the taxpayer's tax situation, including whether they would be able to make use of carried-over credits in future years.

Edit: in a previous comment I said R&D credits aren't available if you don't have positive income. That's not strictly true. R&D credits only apply against actual tax liabilities, but if you don't have any taxable income the unused credits would carry over into a future year for potential use.
I have a deployment script that is part of my one-click deployment to the customer's webserver. It's kind of a legacy to having really crap interwebs though, as my upload used to be in the 700-900 kbit/sec range, so it strips out anything from the deploy package that isn't absolutely essential to create sort of a delta of changes.

Makes deployments blistering fast now that I've got 30 Megabit/sec up though... :)

We get this in the UK - I can order from Tesco or Asda and get it delivered to my door.
"Price promise" price matches lowest price in area for branded goods like Heinz baked beans. It's cheaper in UK to pick supermarket own brand, in which case there is the issue that I like Tesco baked beans but not Asda baked beans.
And Tesco offer a "as you would pick it yourself" on fresh food where they pick the longest shelf life fresh food. But Tesco failed and lost a lot of money in the US market.
I wonder why the UK has good supermarket delivery and the US does not.
Not for interviewing for a company with reasonable interview practices.
But you have to run through their interview gauntlet.
The codes have a small number in front; these are the requests. So if the server did allow 65k requests, each one would be a different number. You can guess once per request.

Yes, an attacker can denial-of-service by guessing once on all the (possible) requests. There is some work towards stopping this sort of behavior (see e.g. https://github.com/warner/magic-wormhole/issues/126)

> The only place I can see that really escapes from this is the high end restaurants.

Actually, fast food restaurants have some of the best food practices. I'd feel much safer eating at some random McDonald's than some Mom-n-Pop diner.
> I find it fascinating (and a bit worrying) they are still basically attempting to optimize the same two approaches that were developed in the 50s/60s, tokamak and stellarator.

This would be a bit like worrying that aerospace engineers are still optimizing wings. Like wings, tokomaks/stellarators are the best tools for the job, as dictated by the underlying physics of the systems in question. Basically, donut-shaped magnetically-confined plasmas "leak" into themselves, rather than out into the world.

> Many people have spent their whole careers on it and have died without making significant progress.

This is a popular view that is entirely wrong. The figure of merit, which is the triple product of confinement time, density, and temperature, outpaced Moore's law right up until a gain of about 0.95, when the magnetic technology of the day caused the necessary size increase to put ITER in the realm of international cooperation. ITER absolutely will produce more power than it consumes. The plasma physics are just that well understood. The problem is size.

MIT have recently worked out that a new breed of superconducting magnets can more than double the available field strength, resulting in a 16-fold reduction in reactor size (due to a 4th power gain in confinement strength as a function of field strength). They hope to achieve a gain of about 2 with a university-scale reactor before ITER, designed with the magnets available at the time, is complete.

Most, if not all, of the above comes from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0KuAx1COEk. ARC and SPARC, the MIT reactor concepts, are the most exciting thing I've heard about in...gosh, I guess my whole life. They could pull it off. If they do, we could save the planet with fusion-powered CO2 scrubbing. We could avert disaster.
Yeah if you want access to peoples' time they need to get paid. So yeah you can pay for it. The alternative is government healthcare which the U.S. provides for veterans who often die on waiting lists when the administrators shred requests for services. It's unlikely normal people will get tested better by our government.

Your answer to a problem no one should be forced to deal with is to spend more money on a bigger monitor?

Not only does that not address the issue in the slightest, but that's very much like saying if you don't like the banner ads run across the bottoms of t.v. shows you should buy a bigger t.v. so it feels smaller.
I've lived in the Bay Area for a little bit and another issue is the "not in my backyard" problem. What I understand of this issue is that the richer communities want to use rent-prices as a wall to keep low income and homeless away from those areas and out their school systems. None of them want to be the first to take a risk on the "value" of their neighborhoods at the expense of everyone else. Would the federal law you mention address an issue like this?

MIT's Pathway to Fusion Energy
> Isn't the same ageism -- true or perceived -- in all industries?

Hmmmm... in a handful of industries I might say yes, but in many others I would say no.

I see an abundance of discrimination against younger in many industries. Either they are looked at as lacking knowledge, experience, or both. Often times this perception is justified, but often it is not. Of course, there is no legal recourse since age discrimination in the US is mostly (always?) for people 40 and older.

That said, the ageism in technology in the Bay Area and a few other areas is peculiar and does not seem to be particularly widespread outside of these regions (at least in the US). This ageism seems to follow a few patterns:

1. People in the capital class working young people hard for low pay... because they can. Most older folks won't put up with it for justifiable reasons. These are often terrible places to work and are often terrible businesses as well.

2. Really smart and creative young people who want to work with similarly-minded people without having to manage a potential or real generation gap. This is probably closer to being justifiable when at a very small scale, but it's still potentially illegal, especially as scale increases. This is the sort of headline discrimination that is seen in the Bay Area -- a 20-something superstar typically doesn't have the "soft skills" necessary to manage someone a decade or two older. Few people at that age do, but this is especially true for folks who spent their younger years developing their non-managerial specialist knowledge.

3. "Culture fit". Some (many?) younger folks in the Bay Area seem to want to extend their college partying years. This means that older and potentially more conservative or parent-like figures are not particularly welcome. I think that this is not uncommon at any favored destination of recent high-achieving college graduates (as well as wannabe high achievers).

If someone in their 30s or 40s wants a job in tech, one easy way is just to get away from the areas that are flooded with high-achieving recent college grads. The areas that are flooded with these types have very real ageism problems. The areas that have few of these folks (most areas) largely don't have ageism problems -- if anything, younger applicants are more likely to be perceived negatively. Admittedly, the latter places are often less cool (i.e., not Bay Area, not NYC, not Austin, etc.), but these places have jobs.

As someone who is a subject matter expert that is using more and more AI/ML for their research, this makes intuitive sense. I could keep up with current AI research, but I would barely be treading water and couldn't create anything of substance.

However, incorporating mature ML methodologies (meaning it has a library) to subject-matter problems is now adding a tremendous amount of value in the research I do.
