Honestly, I think it's healthy to not view work as part of yourself - but I think the people who do, know that as well.

I've got a job offer for a very nice job, doing software development next month. The pays great, the people, the are great. However, I'm desperately looking for a product design job - because it's 100% my dream. I am fully aware that it's not healthy to tie my self worth to my job, and I should focus on financial stability, and work / life ratio.

But i'd just feel so unfulfilled, and at the end of the day, I just can't help it. Being excited to get up in the morning and go to work, also means getting hurt when it goes wrong.
That's bad. Maersk hasn't been communicating with the shipping industry. Journal of Commerce says nobody is getting useful info about Maersk's status.[1] Now we have a hint as to why - they can't even communicate internally.

The Maersk site still has nothing but a statement that they are down. Maersk's Twitter feed has nothing useful. No press releases. The only useful comments are coming from non-Maersk port employees.

Cooking food breaks down the cell walls and so makes it much easier to digest. So you can get more of the calories out of the food you consume. You spend less time gathering and eating and free up time for thinking.

> Your dystopian solution of basically imprisoning the poor is outlandish.

I actually think his solution makes sense.

For the really impoverished people who are willing and capable to work their way up, this would be exactly what they want; for those who really don't want a roof over their heads, they should really be put into some sort of institution with restricted freedom and mental illness help.

If we have $300mil budget to help 10 thousand homeless, that's $30k per person, enough to support a decent standards of living in a cheap part of the country.
I have a sousvide cooker and a slow cooker so that I can have the machines make food for me when I am not at home.

Throw some meat into the sousvide in the morning, come home to a really nice piece of meat that you can take right out of the machine. Save any excess and reheat out the next day.
Please read the next four paragraphs.

Could you kindly reply with your email, as I would like to email you. I am a crank inventor (no but keep reading, just three and a half more paragraphs!) who has invented something similar to a free-energy machine, except in the field of aviation and specifically renewable energy flight, where free power is in the skies for anyone so it's not totally cranky. After all you just wrote a 27-page draft about it. (By the way your paper is very solid and prominently describes in detail several trade-offs that I address specifically through a different mechanism; you are the real deal.)

I would like to work with a collaborator (such as yourself) and then patent and license the technology. Specialist patent offices I contacted said that they would have a conflict with their existing large clients Boeing etc, and for this reason cannot work with me.

On the other hand if they do not have this experience it is kind of a catch-22. Your personal resources and if appropriate (if it works) your resources at MIT would alleviate this issue.

We can discuss the rest by email. I look forward to your reply. It will not take much of your time to make a determination. I promise it will be interesting and well-specified (usually crank inventors misuse common terminology, don't correctly understand the principles they use, and are vague and underspecified, committing logical errors and non-sequiturs to arrive at their mechanism - this isn't like that.) Thank you!
>Every desk in those office towers is a person who needs to get lunch.

Do you have any insight into why so many people buy lunch instead of bringing it? I've had a desk job for about 20 years now and I think I've bought lunch maybe 10 times when for some reason I wasn't able to make my lunch that day. It seems to me that buying lunch is more expensive and a person will probably eat more calories. I can't imagine it is a time issue, I probably spend less than 5 minutes putting a lunch together every day. That is far less than the time required to go somewhere for lunch. I assume it also isn't an issue of wanting to get away from the desk - most office places I've seen have lots of places a person can go and eat.

BTW, the time part of "On The Electrodynamics" is nonsense ;)

The notion of simultaneous with hands of a watch and beams of light makes no sens, because everything is simultaneous due to the nature of the universe.

The notions of time itself, past and future require an observer to be formulated, and does not have any existence whatsoever.

One thing I noticed:

People are starting to forget what old computer screens looked like. It could be because there's a shortage of actual, functional CRT monitors. But these days when an old computer is called for you are likely to see perfectly smooth, green text in Consolas or similar composited onto a prop screen, rather than actual glowing pixels. It's jarring and saddening, and it's happened in two films that I've seen so far: John Wick Chapter 2 (wherein VIC-20s stood in for the old computer keyboards) and Kong: Skull Island.
Baltimore born, raised and living here still.

My startup adventures have prompted many visits to San Fran and in turn I witnessed the plight of the homeless there. It does not exist on any scale like it does there whether it's in Baltimore or New York City where I lived a year after college.

There's not much you can do re: the homeless in San Francisco, but it bothers me and makes me feel bad.

Overall not a fan of San Francisco for a variety of reasons.
Socialisation is a big part of it - going as a team to grab lunch from a specific place; I'm sure there are plenty of anthropological studies on groups sharing food as part of bonding etc.

pyrasite can make the child process slow down markedly; this came up for me when injecting profilers into cinnamon-screensaver to try to root cause a memory leak (https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1652489)

cinnamon-screensaver would take multiple seconds to lock the screen even after I'd stopped profiling and exited the interpreter I'd injected, and I wound up restarting it so I could lock my screen quickly again.

I don't know why this happened, but it's enough to make me think twice, and I'm definitely going to double-check my process is still performing as I hope after injecting it with pyrasite in the future.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head. So many restaurants are funded with little regard for profit (backers provide capital for vanity, amongst other non-profit related reasons) which makes financial success in the field rather difficult.
If you work downtown SF you are likely making 80-100k and have a bit of disposable income that you can spend socializing with other people while eating out.
Attitude change in the sense of not being willing to allow inherently insecure architectures - management always moving the company towards secure-on-principle architectures (not that I'm qualified to say if it's a good example but Google's BeyondCorp is an example of aiming to make everything secure on principle meaning not leaky on principle). That added to any pentesting or other necessary immediate security measures.

The impression I have is that today's event was the result of a lot of companies allowing insecure-on-principle architectures like a zillion apps each with their own update structure (random Ukrainian enterprise app supplier gets penetrated and the whole world goes down). A pentester might never be able to find that vector until that app supplier leaves their door open or someone finds out about them for example.

Hmm. Cooking a nice meal is a lot of work but it does scale to a certain extent, once you're over the initial hump. It's not that much harder to cook for 6 people than for 3.

So, that makes me wonder if a Craigslist/Uber hybrid service would be viable. Basically a way to allow those full-time neighborhood housewives to pick up a few extra bucks by offering to cook 2x - 3x as much as required to feed their own families. The surplus homecooked meals would be picked up and delivered to someone else in the neighborhood who doesn't have the time, the talent, or the wife.

It might not make much money, and it would probably draw the ire of local health authorities in much the same way that Uber and Lyft crossed swords with the taxi cartels. But I'd probably use a service like that, or at least try it. And it's not every day I get to bust out a zeugma.
Yeah and I get that you'd do mobile first as a startup, but Google news probably has > 100mm daily views, you'd think they could afford the extra .5 engineers it takes to maintain the old UI.

You can't go back in time and "undo" Bitcoin. If you criminalize Bitcoin, crooks might very well continue to use it, if it's their best option. It won't be as financially liquid, of course, but the crooks will just tweak their prices to account for this. Either a more efficient underground payment system will be used, if Bitcoin were criminalized, or Bitcoin would continue to be used.

The proverbial cat's out the bag: crooks have access to Bitcoin code, too, and can easily replicate a blockchain to create CrookCoin. You can't truly prevent criminals from doing stuff using laws, since we call them criminals in the first place because they seemingly have little reverence for laws.

Are you (and kesselvon) suggesting that otherwise viable businesses are getting wiped out because they are in small towns? And the reason for that is that regional banking is "drying up"?

Hey! Didn't want to provide details that aren't relevant to the parent topic.

We built a system to calculate science-backed meal plans based on customer data. Calories, macronutrients, micronutrients, vitamins, probiotics, fiber. Water.

We have over 5000 cookbooks from all over the World from which we curate our recipes, input them and get full nutritional breakdowns.

It is probably THE most important part of any diet — the ability to actually stick to it and enjoy it. What we want to do is to completely take away the decision fatigue, and provide diverse food that is tailored to your body.

Nutrition is complicated, and things that work for some people may not work for the other. The feedback loop is important. If a customer wants to lose fat or gain muscle, we track the progress and adjust their diets accordingly.

PS: "Real-time decision that the customer makes at the time of order" is fueled by ghrelin and stress, decision fatigue and availability, and is most often poor.

I think what you're saying is that it should flatly be "False" and not just "Mostly False".

Per their stated rating system [1], 'Mostly False' is defined as "This rating indicates that the primary elements of a claim are demonstrably false."

The slim kernel of truth in it is that the fake letter references a real court case involving the Supreme Court and Gorsuch - which seems like why it was only Mostly.

In the standard types for the DOM [1], only types for standardized browser APIs are made available. Browser inconsistencies wrt. standards are dealt with polyfills, either written in JS because they already exist, or you can write them in Scala.js too if you prefer.

But Scala.js doesn't force the standard typings on you. If you prefer another strategy, you can write your own types for the browser. You could use overloads in your example above.

That wouldn't prevent you from using the wrong overload on the wrong browser at the type system level, though, obviously. Doing so might be possible if you're willing to go very far with Scala's path-dependent types, but I won't go into details here. Scala.js users tend to prefer the earlier solutions.

I'd agree on the benefits of providing housing, but you're probably not going to want to make it mandatory (what's the alternative? jail? that's wasteful) and you can damage a lot of property in a housing situation too (if not more).

So economically, there has to be a recognition that some people are going to give up on the system and decide to stop trying to please a brutal economic machine, and that some of them may even become bad actors, in order to develop a realistic plan.
> homelessness is not caused by high house prices

For what it's worth, 70% of SF's homeless population lived in SF in homes before they were on the street. It's probably fair to assume that if rents were lower, more of those people would still be in homes.
I Could Kill You with a Consumer Drone
The issue is chronic homelessness, not people "in between jobs" or couch crashing. Those aren't the ones defecating on city streets and aggressively panhandling. We have data on this, so let's not conflate the issue with non-issues.

2/3 of the chronic homeless have mental or physical disabilities. 1/3 have drug problems. You are talking about 83,000 people in a population of 320 million, but these 83,000 people are creating huge quality of life problems in all of our major cities. In San Francisco, you have 300 million dollars spent fighting a problem created by 2,000 people. The non-profit and social services mafia employs more people to "care" for the homeless -- or more cynically exploit them -- than the actual number of chronically homeless.

When an FPGA powers up and self-configures, it's in an unknown state. If the design uses synchronous elements, then reset logic must be architected in by the designer; in contrast, purely combinatorial circuits would not require reset logic since their outputs are not dependent on a clock edge.

I go out for lunch basically every day.

Price: Within reason, who cares? I don't have a wife or kids or any obligations really. What good is a six figure salary if I have to micromanage what I'm spending on food?

Calories: Diets don't work, so who cares? If the meal is too big to finish then I'll take half home for dinner, like I did today.

Time: IDK if you eat a cold turkey sandwich for lunch every single day or what, but it would probably take me 30-60 minutes to make the things I often eat for lunch, if I even had the ingredients. I don't have the benefit of hours of kitchen prep before the restaurant opens.

Getting away: This is a big part of it actually. Not just leaving my desk, but leaving the office entirely. Walking around the downtown, remembering what it's like to be a human being in the sunlight.

I realize these answers may not match your lifestyle but I'm just trying to give the insight you asked for, from a person who does this.

> the above comment when using the word implication my intent was "a conclusion that can be drawn despite not being explicitly stated".

Yes, that is the same definition. But it is an error to draw that conclusion in question because it requires unsupported assumptions. That's why it's not implied in the original statement.

> The conclusion that can be drawn, based on the fact that the writer specified that date, is that later dates did not qualify for the same statement, because the conditions were not sufficient.

No, the later dates did not qualify because the knowledge is insufficient, or if you allow that the knowledge was an implicit part of the statement, it's not longer a binary proposition . If there are two true propositions that must be true for the original statement (we were insecure, and we know we were insecure), there are multiple alternatives. The problem is you are assuming a single one of the possible alternatives is implied, when it's not.

For example, I can say "up to this point in life, I haven't committed a felony." That does not imply I plan to commit a felony by itself. With additional context, it may or may not. I could just as easily follow that statement with "I don't see that changing any time soon" as with "I'm not sure if it's likely I'll still be able to say that next year." That additional context combined with the original statement carries the implication. In this case, people are assuming it's along the lines of one of those followups, when there is really no disambiguating context. Assuming one or the other is a problem of the person interpreting the statement, and in my opinion the root cause of quite a few arguments as a result of misunderstanding, which is why I called it out in the first place.

> That is to say, that they were not insecure enough for the writer to include in his comment.

Or they decided for whatever reasons they did not want to mention it. For example, to simplify the message and call attention to what they thought was of greater importance. Don't assume intent without evidence.

> while computers might be compromised after that date, the writer doesn't believe it's worth advising people to ASSUME they are compromised.

Which is a valid stance to have. I don't believe it's useful for the average person that has stayed patched to assume they are compromised. To assume so would mean never logging into any online account in my case. I believe it's useful to assume you are always under some level of attack, whether active or passive, and take precautions, but to assume you are compromised is quite a bit farther than that.
