That resonates with me. But I struggle a lot. I feel like my wife's irrationality on some subjects forces us to both spend some of our very limited time here feeling anxious and negative. It's frustrating and feels very one sided. Why can't she meet me half way and stop being so anxious on half the events? Well.. because irrationality doesn't work that way; I get that.

I think that true zen for me is finding a way to just relax and be okay with emotional inefficiency. Not sure how to do that.
I think the "cancelling" action you're saying would be some way to pay the loan companies off with US govt funding. So, as a US taxpayer who is almost done paying his student loans, I lose out. Twice, i think.

I understand the husband was naive for expecting that it would be easy to find an inexpensive and convenient house cleaning service. He wanted "something he could one-click order on Amazon", and housecleaning services are not like that.

But why is that the case? Why can't there be an Uber* for housecleaning? Even better, why can't they pay an actual maid to clean the house all the time? Every hour she is cleaning the house (or researching to hire a one-time cleaning service) is an hour she could be working, so unless her labor is less valuable than a maid's, she would actually be saving money by not cleaning the house herself.

I understand that in the US this sort of thing is not that simple because in developed nations labor costs are so high (in the third world more families have maids than washing machines and dishwashers), but even so, there is still inequality. Her labor should be more expensive than a maid's labor. Why can't they take advantage of that, reap benefits of trade?

*ETA: I now believe "Uber for housecleaning" is a terrible idea. The correct thing would be "Upwork for housecleaning". Something more focused on long-term professional relationships.
> all can cause even Rust programs to fail at runtime

For sure, a safe Rust program can fail in a dozen different ways. My favorite is just creating an unsigned 0 and trying to subtract 1 from it -- in debug mode that'll panic and probably crash the whole program. But unless you touch the `unsafe` keyword, it should be impossible to fail in a way that causes undefined behavior. That's the big difference.

Edit: You're right, I missed the point :| :| :|

I would make the bed because she never did it.

She would complain that I didn't make the top sheet tight enough.

My response was if you want the sheets tighter, make the bed yourself.

It's childish to expect someone else to care about something as much as you do.

Did the author make her expectations clear or was she expecting her husband to read her mind?

It sounds like she was expecting her husband to care about the same things she did.
"Free" is covered by taxes already paid. So making university "free" would be an additional tax. But instead of the attendees paying for them directly, the pay would be spread out. Also, it would change the dynamic of which school you could attend. High School is covered based on taxes in the town paid for by property owners. Some university programs are subsidized by state taxes (like SUNY for New York) and are discounted for residents of the state. This would likely just extend these kinds of programs with a higher state tax.
I think this is kind of a nonsensical question but please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Imagine you and I agree to a deal, both verbally and contractually (i.e. on paper). I give you 10 euros and you pay me back 11 euros in exactly 1 year.

Now 6 months into the deal you suddenly ask yourself: "Well who would lose out when this debt gets cancelled?"

Do you see now why I think it is a nonsensical question?
Yes, this infuriates me about my city's (Moscow) bikeshare app. It would show you completely outdated state until you restart it with no way to refresh. Later they introduced electrobike option, and I discovered that if you switch to electrobike map and back to normal bike app, it refreshes! Later I found that Citymapper is available in Moscow, and its bike map is much superior so I don't have to suffer the official app anymore.
This one is easy. People are buying things that they can't afford. Throwing it into a loan and then partying their way through school. Since that worked out so well, then they do that with their car, house, furniture, cell phones, and car rims.

You aren't entitled to 100,000 dollar education.

The opposite. To a company with lots of money to spend (deep pockets) the author offered the client a large license fee for middleware that was important (to the client).

This is a bit of a mind game. Confirmation bias[0] and the sunk-cost fallacy[1] being what they are, after a client makes what she sees as a large investment in you and your product, she has tied her success to your success.

I get the feeling, but let's be honest: programming and deploying in Python now is better in every way compared to 10 years ago.

Not that much to complain, the community is doing an awesome job. Especially given the very delicate balance we need to maintain since we have a _very_ heterogeneous user base.
Not only what you said, trades can also lead you down a path of owning your own business. If that is the direction you go often you can exceed the incomes of the college educated quite handily.
I meant as in, student loans (whether private or public) have a maximum mandatory monthly repayment rate of, say, 10% of the individual's monthly income.

So let's say I took in $1000 before taxes this month. The highest my minimum monthly payment can be on my student loans (total) is $100.

That puts pressure back on the university to keep their tuition rates in line with what can actually be repaid, ie, the actual financial value of the degree itself.

Not saying this is the ideal solution, it just shows how much of a canard the parent poster's answer is. There are plenty of solutions to this issue, depending on what we want to do.

How is closed cell foam poor insulation? It has an R-Value of approx 6-7 R per inch of thickness. 3 inches would provide an R-Value of approx 21 and would also seal the container. At 3 inches of thickness it provides a barrier to moisture. There is no other insulation that even comes close. It also increases the structural integrity of the container by 200%. Containers are incredibly strong and some of the best insulated structures on the planet.

Here is a good link for you to educate yourself about insulation.

I’m struggling to see how he is any of these things. Reading your past comments, I can’t find a single one with a follow up (maybe that means you’re weak and ineffectual)... never the less, this one seems cruel. Should I be surprised to see other commenters actually agree with you?

Id be curious of a CEO who you think does these things. Most CEOs are successful people, so calling them “weak, ineffectual, lazy” sounds very hateful, and sad. And yet, this comment has only received support! I don’t think I’ll ever understand you people.

There are 501(c)(3) "non-profit religious corporations" and 508(c)(1)(a) "non-profit religious churches". Only 501(c)(3) must submit documents to the IRS because they are a "corporation".

As a side note, 508(c)(1)(a) can also speak about politics while 501(c)(3) are forbidden from doing so.
They've already accepted that as true. The point is that even with an "uber of housecleaning", you're still inviting a stranger into your house to be around your children, and you still have to make it work with your schedule. That's the work. The human aspect won't go away union as housekeeping robot is invented.
Linux ate proprietary Unix, not Windows. Windows "servers" domination as listed by garner and others were tiny office NT4 domains back then, not internet facing websites and such. The web never really got dominated by MS and Unix and Linux always strangled MS in the cradle. Even stats by netcraft are misleading. Sure you'll see a lot of small business IIS crap and Exchange OWA, but that's no the web in general. The web has always been dominated by linux/Unix.

I had a USB sound card that, on windows, would play back at 48kHz instead of 44.1kHz. Slight pitch shift upwards, playback at 8% faster. Most apps just let the audio driver provide backpressure and don't actively try to send data at the rate the soundcard is expecting, they just feed bytes when asked.

Even more fun was that it was a dual-boot machine, and the audio worked perfectly in Linux but shifted up in Windows. I honestly thought I was losing my mind for a while. I'd listen to the same song in Spotify on both OSes and just get this "something is wrong here..." feeling in my gut.
Maybe the real problem is that we've developed this caste system over the last 50 years where people who don't get college degrees are excluded from careers that can sustain a middle class lifestyle. What if free college just moves the goal post and in a couple more decades nearly everyone has a Master's degree and you need a PhD to earn a decent living? What happens if the most talented segment of our work force ends up spending their most creative years trying to achieve meaningless credentials instead of actually contributing to the GDP?

(Preemptive Edit: I know they have free college in some European countries, but maybe they have the same problem.)

Is this meant to refute the argument, or suggest that it's no longer relevant?

If the argument is sound, the question instead becomes: Did their privacy focus start at that date, or did the iAd business case evolve into something else?

That iAd was discontinued is the wrong focus. I want to know whether they actually care about privacy, since there is so little insight.

Computer software does not exist in isolation; it is built upon layers and layers of abstractions, starting from hardware and ending with your framework/language of choice, resulting in a system so complex that no person alive is able to grok it in it's entirety. Bugs can be found in any of these hundreds of separate but interoperating layers, and no entity it's going to assume full liability for this entire construct.

A better analogy would be if the bridge was interconnected with every other piece of infrastructure in it's environment, from the buildings in vicinity to the ground it's built on, and all of these were in continuous shift and transformation. No sane engineer would take full responsibility for designing and building such a bridge.

And I haven't even touched on the subject of money and it's implications. "Whereas physics is math with the constraint of reality, software engineering is math with the constraint of money."
Just for some perspective mortgage delinquency rages (90+ days overdue) were highest at 11.5%[1]. But there's a lot of factors to consider, so I wouldn't necessarily say this is the sign that the bubble is going to pop soon.

Shipping containers can come insulated. They use a 2 lb closed cell foam which is an incredible insulation and water proofing product. R-21 at 3" thickness. You can heat the container with a candle and cool it with an ice cube.
Yes, this is an interesting topic! And even if you can make the hardware survive for a long time, even in harsh conditions (something like this comes to mind: https://sploid.gizmodo.com/this-old-ass-commodore-64-is-stil... ), the surrounding software ecosystem will still be an issue. Everything from compilers for building the firmware to the server side software will have progressed/aged in those decades.
Great point, but for some reason union-protected professional educators who hold degrees from accredited institutions and who control state education monopolies are hostile to this worldview and deride it as “demeaning.”
think long and hard before choosing to go to a 4 year college

A college degree is still worth a considerable bump in lifetime earnings.[1] Perhaps you should revise your advice to "think long and hard before choosing to go to an expensive 4 year college" or "consider spending the first two years of college at a local community college."

> How many engineers live like that?

Well for one thing the engineer planning the electrical isn't the engineer planning the structure. The engineer who scoped the HVAC isn't the guy who wrote the company's website either.

This is a long term problem that we need to begin recognizing and addressing today. I wouldn't expect the programmer who is building the frontend to understand the network security. I wouldn't expect the database guy to know the server administrative role.

Sure there's overlap but to have a team of people whose focus is that specific role is partially what engineers do. As a software engineer myself it's illegal for me to go onto my client's sites and start engineering their electrical system. I pass that effort to my coworkers who are electrical engineers in just the same way they ask me to design them their databases and their network.
I absolutely agree that Wallaroo Labs wrote the code, and they get to decide what license is on it. It is, as you say, their business.

> And don't forget that programmers need to eat too. "Widely used" does not directly translate to "making tons of money".

I hadn't forgotten that; I wish every success to Wallaroo Labs, and hope that they are soon "making tons of money". I think their product could be very exciting.

Personally, I think their product would be even more exciting if it were fully open source. I think more people and companies would get involved, and that this would accelerate development and adoption. There are other business models which could support this (paid support, hosted instances, etc...) which are not incompatible with the software being fully open source.

Ultimately, the decision belongs to Wallaroo Labs. Their assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of the available business models is clearly different from mine.
>That’s the point,” I said, now in tears, “I don’t want to have to ask.”

>However, it’s not as easy as telling him that. My husband, despite his good nature and admirable intentions, still responds to criticism in a very patriarchal way.

This sounds like a very dysfunctional marriage. I have been observing what I consider are good marriages that have stood the test of time. Marriages where they have been married 30, 40, 50 years and are still crazy about each other. Here are some things that I have found.

1. Good communication. Never expect the other partner to read your mind.

2. Compromise. If what I want hurts or causes pain to the other person, it is not worth it.

3. Loyalty. My spouse is more important to me than any ideology or person.

4. Individual love. My spouse is their own person. They are not some avatar of a family, ethnicity, or gender.

5. Selflessness. I choose to do what it takes to make my spouse happy without expecting anything in return.

These thing should be done by both husband and wife. The author, goes against everyone of them. She expects the husband to read her mind. The whole article feels like some primal cry for appreciation and notice. She criticizes her husband publicly in an article that will be read by millions. She views her husband and son as avatars for men. Her first loyalty seems to be to feminism, and not to her family.

Many times I have seen dysfunctional marriages where the husband justifies his selfishness by using societal gender roles or religion - "The Bible says I am the head of this house". That is wrong. In this article, the author justifies her selfishness using feminism. That is also wrong.
Are you arguing against public high schools? I don't understand.
A couple of question with answers we'll never get:

- What is the breakdown across for-profit vs traditional school graduates? Are University of Phoenix grads defaulting at the same rate as ivy league grads? (obviously no, but the disparity would be good to know)

- What are the statistics if you include SoFi (and other similar refinancers that cherry-pick borrowers most likely to repay) borrowers that get removed from the public numbers?
I'm sure many of them have the machines, still. The new kids pull them out from under the counter top and muse, "What are THESE for?!"

Aside from what you said about the embossed cards, I suspect the greater problem is probably the multi-part forms. I've seen embossing machines more recently than I've seen a stack of credit slips.

For what it is worth, you can take a decent impression of a card with an ordinary piece of thermal receipt paper and a firm rubbing with a soft plastic like a Bic pen barrel or a thumbnail.
I'm not in love with the phrase "emotional labor" but I would suspect if you reflect more deeply you will see the scenarios in this article playing out in your own and others' relationships.

It's not really about standards, more the fact that it's not fair to women when the default assumption is they are in mental charge of household and child-rearing duties - certainly when both partners are working.

Conflict in relationship, especially intimate relationships, is rarely about the content.

It's typically that the context of the situation brings up an emotion that is taboo / off limits, one that the person has spent a life time avoiding.

This avoidance is typically do to previous developmental or shock trauma.

You can actually learn to use your conflicts as a psychedelic of sorts to do deep transformational work, if you have the right context, language and tools.

From my view, this inability to transform conflict is why most relationships end and why most people in relationships aren't happy (despite relationships being the single greatest predictor of health and life satisfaction.)

The article specifically says that he's willing to do more of the chores or whatever is asked of him around the house. That is compromise. I don't care about clutter whatsoever, and while I'd be happy to clean to make my partner feel better, it's not going to make me care any more. This article just reads like a woman who is mad that her husband doesn't share her perspective -- she notes that he has no problem doing the work.

Yeah. A 220 bit spreadsheet would be impressive. Particularly the achievement of the source length not being a whole number of bytes.
"It just works" is great and imo arguably the ideal design in a lot of use cases. The problem here is that the code wasn't adequately tested. It "just works" in the circumstances that the app designers thought of when they were making it, and it "may or may not work if you're lucky" the rest of the time.
The whole article is about preventing undefined behavior WRT memory allocation and deallocation, so that's kind of beside the point.
I agree, at least the first two paragraphs did not sound like emotional labor.

That is a shame because it does sound like an interesting concept.
