This is a highly charged, and - frankly sexist - article about how people have expectations that are unfulfilled because they simply don't communicate with each other.

There isn't a single example of this "emotional labor" in the article, where a consideration is given to "the man" about how much labor it takes, emotionally, to keep up with someone who has high expectations for their environment, but does not communicate those expectations in a way that forms consensus - instead, opting to 'shame the man' for not having the same standards.

However, in spite of the blatant sexism, the true value of this article is that, when people fail to properly communicate, much much un-necessary work develops, and this gets in the way of having a great life. Yup. Perhaps we as a society should stop forwarding the ideal that "people should just know what expectations they have to meet", and rather promote the idea that "its always good to work things out about who does what and how clean things have to be, before you get married, or you know .. move in with each other"... The fact that the author hasn't cottoned on to this, frankly, belies a serious immaturity on her part.
I really like Hacktoberfest, I think it's a great way to get people involved in open source.

The T-shirt design is always good.

I'm sending out an email to my coworkers who usually wouldn't participate in open source and offering them help on how they could make their 4 pull-requests for the month.

Bonus: even if you don't get the T-shirt, they often still send you stickers.

FWIW, there was a research team at Yahoo who would actually get insights about the way people used language (relevant for contextual search) from Yahoo Answers. They were more active during the earlier years when the content quality was much higher. I don't know if they used Vespa in their mining process, but it would not surprise me if they did. Vespa is used in many projects because it's just that good. So if you are thinking of using it -- for Yahoo Answers, for Quora, whatever, go for it. I know a cancer researcher/engineer who wants to use Vespa for serving clinical reports and trial outcomes.

As for the current Answers site, well, we'll see what happens. I know the PM, a delightful person. I don't know the plan. But if there is a plan to make something useful from it, apply. It apparently makes money (otherwise it would have been killed long ago), and that means there's something to work with. When I started at Yahoo I was hoping to get onto the Groups team for the same reason -- a huge challenge to fix something that could be made cool again.

I'd offer a third option which is taking responsibility for your pain / emotions, but not trying to "control" them.

Instead, welcoming and allowing all of them and creating space to engage and explore them.

This can lead to much deeper connection with your self and others, and increased health.

When you do this, you will also be more available to help others feel their emotions and to help them take responsibility for feeling them fully.

I quibble over the term "control" because I see much of our cultures problems as an avoidance -- either making it others people's job, or turning to drugs / addictions / psychiatry / etc. to avoid feeling.

> The most I found was something about there being a mandated minimum open time, during which the close door button would not be allowed to work.

Which still makes no sense: if a human being is pushing a close button, presumably he has a good reason for doing so.

I'm rather hopeful that the actual facts are that the ADA requires a minimum open time, and that a close button may shorten that time because it's an active human request.
There are plenty of fields where name-brand degrees mean a crap ton starting out, e.g. finance, law.

Interesting, if you think that education is a race to the bottom in credentialling though, what is your solution? If you were running a business wouldn't you prefer a PhD to a MS to a BS holding everything else equal?
That's frustrating, sorry. It's a 'reputation issue', that over-protective anti-virus software doles out to smaller software vendors like ourselves. Basically they don't know if it is good or bad because we haven't had millions of installations.

Not sure. I see most people acting safer as being older, but in no way less destructive. They just manage to keep destruction far way from them. That's not being wise, that's just the survival instinct kicking in, boosted by experience.

Actually I tend to see people getting more scared with age. And living in fear is as far from wisdom as ignoring danger is.
"emotional labor" == minding ones manners, adopting and using customs appropriate for the current scenario, and .. generally .. not being a dick.

I think its harder for people to not be dicks to one another, if they've never learned the value of minding ones manners, and it has to be stated: our modern society doesn't really promote this fact. More like, "get your own way no matter what" these days, it seems ..
I didn't know they ever stopped storing data on tape. Tape to my knowledge has been pretty much in continuous use at big corps since their invention. Sure there was things like AWS glacier becoming possible alternatives but tapes are pretty entrenched.
Do they though? Do public universities really have competition? Maryland has College Park and not much else. All the other public schools are much much smaller, and generally lower quality.
The human aspect is precisely what they should be leveraging, but it looks like they choose not to.

Hiring the right maid can be annoying, but you only need to do it once. But instead of hiring an actual person and forming a long-lasting relationship, they chose to hire a faceless housecleaning company for a one-time job. They will have to pay huge transactional costs (with associated emotional labor) all over again next time their bathroom gets dirty.

WYSIWYG has been mostly a disaster. We now have several generations of people who 'paint' documents instead of writing them and styling them. Every paragraph has its own explicit style. It's next to impossible to render such documents to a different published format because nothing is tagged to explain why it looks the way it looks. I was at least as productive writing in Wordstar 35 years ago as I am now in Word 365 or whatever the current name is.

"What I wanted was for him to ask friends on Facebook for a recommendation, call four or five more services, do the emotional labor I would have done if the job had fallen to me... I knew exactly how exhausting it was going to be. That’s why I asked my husband to do it as a gift."

It's ironic that the author complains about her husband's low emotional intelligence yet she doesn't seem to understand that other people may have a different approach to a given problem.

The author provides several examples of emotional labor. The author also tries to explain to her husband (who she says he hasn't fully grasped) that she doesn't want him to clean the bathrooms for mere cleanliness, but for easing the burden of managing the cleanliness of the household.
Students exchanging their body for a place to stay during university years seem to be a commonplace thing today. I guess economic hardships move upwards, so it's time for university staff too.
“Parallel construction”
How does the academic bubble in the U.S. break? Knowing quite a few career adjuncts, I have to wonder if their situation will only be getting worse.
Yeah, I'm a fan. I used their Netlify-CMS, and fell in love. You can either have them host your site wherein they put all your static assets on cloudfare, or self-host it all and set up the git push scripts yourself. I went with the latter method and set up a service worker to cache most of the site.

The result is a lightning fast static site with dynamic content that is easy for a non-developer to use!
People do! But not as much with C++ because it's very rare to find a C++ developer who is genuinely in love with the language and is unaware of its faults. Not many people starting new C++ codebases today unless they feel they have no credible alternative choice.

To a lesser extent the same is true of Rustaceans - they tend to be well aware of the constraints of their language, and won't try to defend it or pump it outside of some specific use cases. Nor do the Rust designers who are fairly humble.

Nobody should be calling Go users stupid. But they typically don't. At least not here. The language itself, on the other hand ...

So what did Anthony end up w after all this?

I thought I heard he had a $100m bonus from Google at some point. Then he sold Otto later to Uber for $600m+?

After all the mess, what's he left with?
Exactly. I'm totally fine with economic incentives aligning with improved privacy and security, which is exactly Apple's business model. Apple has made security and privacy "easy" to the end-user, which is no easy feat.

Apple is not a charity and nobody thinks of them as such. For example, the "RED" campaign is an effort to sell THINGS, but it also gives money to charity. Seems win-win to me.

I think having it back off in a corner an then having a bunch of people cut in front of you and then very, very slowly regaining speed (because where there was space now there's people who moved in front of you) will annoy people.
Why must she? Because she's the one who has issues with it. A relationship needs communication, since mind-reading doesn't work yet. I'll try to avoid using he/she since the article itself is very sexist, as is your post. Partner's have different expectations, and one partner may not see an issue until it's brought to their attention. It has nothing to do with gender, or emotional labor or any other drivel. It has to do with accepting that a relationship requires communication, and from the communication, understanding and compassion.

And a relationship where one person feels such an emotional burden is not healthy.

I have to point out this as well:

"This is about the idea that women are more often expected to be the ones to suggest a compromise, or to be the ones which have to point out these rifts in the relationship. More generally, to do the actual work of being in a relationship and keeping it healthy."

This is outrageously sexist. In my relationship, I'm continually suggesting compromises, and "doing the actual work of being in a relationship and keeping it healthy." The idea that women are the caretakers of relationships is silly. In a healthy relationship, both partners have responsibility and the ability to keep things operating on an even keel.
Reminds me of the former Eastbloc countries where you will find scientists as janitors and living in terrible conditions. Not that people who are not scientists don't live in terrible conditions but you would never expect a maths or physics professor to be unemployable.

Even here in NL there are niche websites that pretend to be dating sites but that actually are sites where students are hooked up with 'sugar daddy's' effectively prostituting themselves to be able to finish their academic education.

Not at all, I'm just pointing out that many jobs that only required a high school degree now require a college degree without the job fundamentally changing all that much. More people attending college would likely worsen that trend to the point where "College 2" (whatever it would be called) would then be required to stand out.
Reform the tenure system and place caps on university administrators pay.
I believe there's a limit:

I'm a programmer, and a PhD student's time is worth a certain amount to me -- at least, as a tutor on subjects I never got to learn but have an interest in. After all, most of the graduate students, adjuncts, etc have worked as tutors and instructors. Presumably, this is true of some fraction of other programmers. So you can support a community of some size by selling lessons -- it just requires substantially adjusting the business arrangement, eg, teaching evening advanced math classes that I can easily take 1 at a time of.

It's actually near that point -- for what I would pay for lessons, you'd only really need 10-15 students to have an okay job (def: median household income where I live). So there my be some sort of actual logistics problem we can solve with technology here. (As an off-the-cuff idea: Kickstarter an evening class; prepay with limited refunds, etc. It wouldn't cost much for adjuncts to try.)
But 100% > 50%.
For those who have university degrees, this should be a difficult read. Next time you say to yourself, "Sure, I went to college. I know that's a privilege, but I worked hard there and made it because of my hard work and nothing else!" Remember this article.

This isn't a new phenomenon, but it's a phenomenon that's becoming more acute. Even if we ignore the adjuncts, the brilliant folks who taught us all what we know subsist on less than half of the median wage for our professions, with increasingly mediocre benefits.

These are the same folks who's amazing research work is powering our industry, often with a 10 year lead time.
He wasn't saying use Haskell instead. It was a comparison of the complexity of the type system vs power provided.

Most Go programs could have been written in Java, Scala, C# or Kotlin and been shorter, more predictable and probably faster. Certainly more maintainable (ok maybe not for Scala).
This puts zero pressure on the actual university to do anything with tuition. The universities aren't the ones loaning the money or counting on your repayments. That's handled by private or government subsidized lenders. It's not a solution at all.
Ableton (music prod software) takes an approach to learnability that works well -- by default there's a dedicated UI element that shows documentation for whatever you're mousing over.

It doesn't remove the need to read docs, especially for people who are new to DAWs, but it does alleviate a lot of the intimidation factor and initial learning curve that can come with needing to find what you need to read in a manual for a complex piece of software.
She fails to understand how its not his fault that her standards are not being met, and that he's failing in his insubordinate duties by not meeting her standards - yet takes no responsibility for having adequately constructed a consensus between the two of them over the issue of household management - "because its the womans job to manage the household".

Sorry, but this is nonsense. Men are just as capable of having a clean house as anyone else - we ultimately succeed in having a great household 'emotionally' when all parties are of equal agency as each other. In this story, I see only un-equal agency, and I believe that is the true cause of her upset .. Let him decide on the standards for the household, independently and under his own determination, and stop undermining the relationship by assuming greater authority over the issue. Otherwise, you have totalitarianism in the household, and no man - nor woman - really deserves that.

“I feel committed to being the person who’s there to help millennials, the next generation, go on to become critical thinkers,” she said. “And I’m really good at it, and I really like it. And it’s heartbreaking to me it doesn’t pay what I feel it should.”

Sadly, there are more people with that kind of deep calling and sense of duty to the next generation willing to put it above a better salary than universities need, so as long as that will hold true, universities will be able to get that highly educated labor for very cheap.

I have several friends who are adjuncts making barely more than I used to make as a grad student, and who are living in borderline poverty (fortunately for now they are young and dependent-free, so it's not too much a sacrifice). I can very much relate to them, as I miss teaching terribly - but I refuse to give cheap labor to what many US universities have become, ie investment firms with an education themed PR front (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/19/business/dealbook/harvard...).

I'm not sure if I agree with you but your comment did make me laugh.
>> I have recently more problems with sites, that embedded a little Javascript, which tests if access to these ad farms are blocked and if so, then redirecting to a site on how to enable ads.

That's the point at which I decide if the site is important for me to look at. If they don't want me reading their site with ads, and go as far as checking this, then I think it's fair enough not to visit, or possibly to enable ads for that domain if you really want to go there.

YES!

That's exactly how I view conflicts. It's the surfacing of something much deeper that is normally completely hidden, either suppressed or managed at the cost of Emotional Reserve.

When something flares up, I try to not let it go to waste and start digging. Instead, it's an opportunity. Either my wife or me (usually both) will then gain some insight about ourselves. We can then apologize for the content wich caused it and then move to the context.

We've been doing this since we were engaged and this has allowed us to grow a lot in terms of emotional stability, and build some strong reserves. Of course the flip side is that with deeper reserves, it can take a lot longer for conflicts to surface, so we now look at frustrations as the opportunities to introspect.
The main difference from Screaming Frog (which is legitimately awesome) is the reporting. Once it has finished crawling it will do a lot of pre-processing for you and build graphs, lists of hints, etc...

Yes and yes. Small food stalls and food trucks should not be held to the same standards as professional restaurants and franchises. Personal use of medications should be less restrictive than pharmacies.

Not to mention the 'emotional labor' of working full time to keep a family afloat.

The only part I agree with the author on is that the man should be keeping his house running and in working order. If it was not part of their division of labor agreement (aka marriage) that she would maintain the house as well as raise the kids (I'm assuming, based on what she wrote) - then he needs to step up by doing those things himself or hiring someone else to do. Which is what she asked for originally.

Everything else is her misusing a term to justify her emotions and argument and shaming her husband for not fixing how she feels.

The biggest issue, as you said, is the lack of communication.
That's overstated. I can already exchange Bitcoin easily and it's the best return I have of all my funds.
