Serving in the army (and actually going to war, which is a nightmare, for a brief period):

1. It helps you get discipline right, and care less about "productivity" and "motivation" - you just do stuff.
2. It teaches you that your reserves and powers are limited, and priorities are an hourly grind of making the right choices.
3. It teaches you to stay sharp all the time, no matter what your body tells you to feel.

Not that I've mastered any of these, but even small hints I've picked up really changed my life before/after spending 6 months in pre-field training and a year in field (I was officer-in-reserve before, but it teaches you knowledge, not skill).

Honest question, what kind of government contracts do you think facebook is bidding on?
In a similar vein; I quit my job and started my company. The number of empty hours I spent trying to be/look busy at work was astounding. When it was my own company, my work ethic became more sensibly based on actual output, rather than perceived output.
Was it hard to make the transition? I wish I could get rid of my smart phone, but I'm so dependent on lyft, my gps, etc, that it's hard to separate the addictive parts from the parts that are really useful.

I would argue if an accident occurs from your example, none of the parties involved were yielding properly to begin with. There shouldn't be an accident (nomenclature is more correct with "collision") with a yield.

The worst-case scenario when yielding properly, with unconventionally given right-of-way is that both parties are at a complete stop and have angry drivers behind.

Now, if you are disobeying the law and are following too closely and collide with someone in front of you, that's a different situation......
My undergrad is in EE and I'm going back to grad school for embedded systems. Even as a EE, I found myself doing lots of software work - writing little C# apps, C++, data processing code in python, matlib scripts, and once in a blue moon writing firmware for microcontrollers

With embedded systems, I can still use my EE background to get my hands on hardware and I'm learning enough software skills to deliver much more professional software whenever I need to.

As a EE, I knew how to code but never got a lot of formal software training so learning git, focusing on my modular code, etc. has been really nice.
I am curious about this (and share the same fear) as well.
If the exercise is demotivating there are two potentially useful things that can be gained. First, it is an opportunity to practice a discipline around doing the grunt work necessary for expert practice. The second is that doing that grunt work may be too high a price to pay for expertise in a particular field (i.e. that the field is not for you).

From my personal life, at one point I thought I wanted to be a chemist. I loved the theory to the point that I enjoyed reading the organic chemistry text book. But I also had to take analytic chemistry which was five credit hours and two days of lab a week and I only got a D by setting the curve on the written final...and the way I did that was by reading the analytic chemistry textbook cover to cover in the three preceding days, I had long since stopped going to lab.

In retrospect (retrospect at the time), I realized that I had always hated science lab. The reason I hated it was because science labs are designed around getting the correct answer that is already known...i.e. the teacher wrote down the composition of the unknown beforehand. [1]

Later having spent time in creative studio environments, I can rule out that my dislike was from the shared space. What I love about studio environments is people are being creative and feeding off of each other. Sure it's competitive, but the competition belongs to the players and wowing and being wowed by one's peers is different from the rote exercise that is an undergraduate science lab.

So I never became a chemist and that's because I never really had a personality for a career as a scientist. It's almost certainly a good thing for me that I did not. Which does not mean that is the case for everyone.

Anyway, the two things are not orthogonal. A person can strive to develop grunt work discipline in a field in which
they have no interest in pursuing further. The discipline has value because even my neighbor the painter gets up some mornings and paints paintings to sell because, you know, it's money.

Good luck.

[1]: Looking at it now, it seems absurd that the standard practice involves keeping knowledge secret.
Huh, by-the-book scrum is the opposite of micromanagement.
I'm not saying that at all, and fiat payment security is improving. But the very fact that it's able to improve implies that some systems are more secure than others.
How’s that been working out? If only saving was incentivized. Bitcoin true believers have a positive view of increasing savings
In that case, use var. There is no production ready polyfill for let. I'd recommend editing your original question and putting your requirement of not using any buildtools or transpillation in, because it's the salient factor here and for most questions you'd ask regarding JS.

>but I think one of the perks of writing in JavaScript was that I got to have a high level language directly run by a system and now I don't want to give it up.

Out of curiosity, what do you see you're giving up? Is it the theoretical knowledge that the code exactly as written is being interpreted? I find that the compiled code is very human readable nowadays, and with sourcemaps it's not an issue at all as browser dev tools will directly link to the source files instead of the compiled files. I used to think I was giving up something until I worked with such a setup.
Went to my doctor for the first time about what turned out to be undiagnosed/untreated comorbid depression and ADHD. I was apprehensive and avoided it for years but it's easily been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I was losing so much time to the vicious cycle of not wanting to do anything but lay in bed, then feeling crappy that I wasn't doing anything, then trying to focus but constantly geting distracted for several hours, then feeling crappy about all of that and just wanting to go back to bed. (And obviously, I have seen enormous improvements in my overall mental health and well-being, not just productivity. But it turns out that not feeling like crap most of the time also makes you a much more productive developer.)

Racket is an educational programming language as well as now a great general purpose language.

I tried to learn Haskell three times and I always left with a bad taste in my mouth. So many paper cuts in the ecco-system aka I HATED Cabal and I know they changed it but man that this was horrible.
Because it hasn't been seen before, it's not likely that it has been exploited. Even after knowing about the flaw for a while, the Wi-Fi Alliance says there is no evidence that this was used maliciously before. https://www.wi-fi.org/news-events/newsroom/wi-fi-alliance-se... We can't know absolutely but with all the attention wifi has gotten since the days of war driving, there's a good chance it would have been caught.
Given that their ideas were tried and failed, I hope a more contemporary option is available...
> I don't think that's true on a highway or similar road.

It's definitely true on a highway (which is anything that's not an alley), and even a freeway (which is probably what you meant.)

> Stopping in the middle of the highway is very dangerous.

Failure to maintain adequate following distance on any road is dangerous; encountering stopped traffic or needing to stop rapidly, even on freeways, is a regular occurrence.

> You cannot blame the 150km/h+ cars to be able to stop safely in all situations.

I don't blame cars for anything, I do blame drivers for failing to maintain a safe combination of speed and separation.

And there's virtually no road, freeway or otherwise, where 150km/h+ (93mph+) is a safe and reasonable speed for any driver, irrespective of separation, so I can quite easiky blame a driver for choosing to drive at such a speed in the first place.

You're right. This is bad.
I am extremely tempted to do this, but I also benefit from simple positive features like contact syncing, notes, grocery list syncing, calendar syncing, and a few other utilities.

I've decided to try one of those micro-smartphones, hoping the small screen will be fine for calendars but miserable for email & web surfing.

Sometimes I think what I really need is WiFi but no data. Sync on the nightstand, but no data connectivity out and about.
> but lately I feel like capitalism is a poison on society.

The bad actors get more press.

All the software companies making products that help people out don't get good press. From implantable diabetic insulin pumps that auto-regulate, to small educational software made by people who love the field they are in.

Heck, Google Maps has made mass transit many times more usable than before, a definite societal good. I love being able to visit almost any major city in any country and have Google maps tell me what bus/subway/lightrail line to use.

There is code out there that helps writers organize their thoughts, mobile apps to help with meditation, and plenty of sites using ad revenue to create high quality video content about how to effectively and safely get in shape and work out at the gym.

Not to mention the thousands of small merchants who make their livelihood from capitalism. I go to an independent optician, the eye glasses I'm currently wearing were locally designed and manufactured. And how many authors has Amazon helped support? Many independent authors who could never have gotten recognized, or had a fan base before, can now support themselves through writing and publishing.

Capitalist incentives are an overall good, but it is incredibly unfortunate that as a species we have used our learnings about ourselves to create self-destructive economic cycles. (Not that this is anything new, opium dens were a thing for a long time!)
I enjoyed learning Haskell in an optional advanced course at our uni. The things which I like the most are higher order functions, playing with pointfree, combinator libraries, typeclasses, pattern matching and higher order types.

Only later did I click with monads and some other patterns like phantom types and such.

I think the sad part about learning Haskell is that everyone gets so up about monads while they definitely aren't the most important part but only one of many beautiful and magical parts of Haskell. Maybe if people stopped talking about monads so much and more about other parts of the language would people be way better at learning the language.
Your side project reminds me of patio11's appointment reminder. I visited your website and found the enterprise pricing is jarringly low, I recommend reading some of patio11 HN post / his blog, perhaps you might be able to increase price and earn 10x more a year.

It means -- "If you're interested in something not shown on the benchmarks game website then please take the program source code and the measurement scripts and publish your own measurements."

The underlying problem seems to be that the rules of the road are broken. We need to ensure everyone drives to the rules, and if the rules are out of date, they need to be updated. Selectively allowing rules to be broken is an extremely bad precedent.
Absolutely, that's why I gave the caveat.

In the cities, freestyle driving works great, and I would bet the accident rate is much lower than "rules based" driving.

On the highways is a totally different game. I have seen some horrific accidents, luckily I have avoided them all so far.
Note that there are two versions of that dongle. The version 1 has Atheros Chip[1] with the best wi-fi support but version 2 has a Realtek chip[2] with subpar support. AFAIK it isn't possible to get version 1 of the dongle today.

My suggestion is Alfa AWUS036NHA (The last three letters are important!) which has AR9271 chip with great support with the ath9k driver.

Masters. If I got a phd, it wouldn't be in engineering. I thought about an MBA, but I felt I needed to focus on becoming much more technical.
It was introductory, yes, although it also covered relational programming in PROLOG.

I benefited from the type inference/type declarations, and learning about generics explained in a non-duck-typing way, though, which I wouldn't have had in LISP.
They care about leverage. Does it matter to you that nobody knows you did/do drugs? Then you are at risk of someone using that as leverage against you.
If a consultant was brought to a manufacturing facility to discuss ISO 9000, would that be culty too?
My favorite things to embroider are fractals and flowers, fractals because you can keep your place without a pattern handy and flowers because you can freehand them easily. It's a therapeutic, contemplative activity when done for leisure.

I can't imagine having your personal worth judged by your stitching though. It's such a frivolous thing.

Tinder is the worst throttling matches to develop emotional dependency. They are not in the match making business, their goal is getting people to use the app and it can't be good for the emotional health of the people involved.
Uh Karl Marx? Although looking at the evidence he may have been wrong.

In seriousness though, I hate to be "that other" guy, but I'm tired of this. We pick out some flaw in our culture and immediately decide the solution is to throw capitalism away entirely like it's a JS framework. As if everything we have including the forums where we complain about capitalism weren't created by capitalism. I don't think it's perfect, but it seems to be the most successful system we've created so far. And one of the best parts is that unlike some systems, you choose what you take part in. You think social media is addictive and it's creators have malicious intent? Don't use it!

While I agree that many courses on Haskell are no good ...

>> "up its own butt about monads and type classes and algebraic data types"

Well, those are some of the best things about doing functional programming in languages that can afford them.

>> "I essentially wrote the whole thing off as academic flubbery"

And maybe it was your attitude to the whole thing.

>> "It wasn't until years later and exposure to .NET LINQ that it started to click..."

So seriously, can't you find anything else that changed "years later"?
Haven't you changed? Aren't we talking about years of accumulated experience?

Also, .NET LINQ might be a cool example of what you can do with FP, there are elements of FP in it, certainly that's a monadic interface that makes it tick. But filtering an IEnumerable or an IQueryable is as interesting as executing an SQL query.

What have you learned about FP from executing SQL queries?
Probably nothing.

Just saying.
I'm getting tired of the passive journalism around american healthcare. Lots of sob stories and lots of statistics, but nobody saying the right things.

Why have I never read "when hospitals charge you too much, they are telling you that you don't deserve to live". $25,000 for an MRI??? That's basically the hospital saying "fuck you, die".
I think you intended to say “compliment” here.
It's a matter of balance. Self interest is a good motivator but it needs balance. Things were bad in the late 1800s. Then things like labor unions and anti trust rules tried to balance things. Then around the 1980s the pendulum swung back and the capital owners got more power.

You don't have to make a binary decision between capitalism and socialism or communism. It's a spectrum with many steps in between. I suspect or hope that there will be a movement the other way again.
There is a downside to pricing being front-and-center. It encourages the patient to make a judgement call on what procedure to undertake based more on cost than on need. Since they are not qualified to assess need they rely on cost more than they probably should. The result may be poor short-term decisions which leads to health complications down the line.

Healthcare is a service like none other. The consumer is not knowledgeable about the details and trusts a third party (doctor). They often buy the service when they are not in the best frame of mind. They may not have the ability to exercise choice in location or provider in an emergency situation. All these factors make it hard for consumers to make a rational decision when it comes to healthcare services. Since these factors are unlikely to change I don't think we should rely on a traditional market-based approach where competition will solve all ills.

More important than transparent pricing is a singular price for a procedure regardless of if the patient has insurance or not. That alone will solve many problems.
This question leaves me with more questions. The post looks at a few alternatives without giving context.

1. How does the course fit the overall curriculum?
2. What is the experience and maturity of the people taking the course?
3. How strong are the teaching skills of the instructor?

The density of functional features taught in a certain time period matters. A drastic change in mindset simply takes time that, I would say, is greater than a standard semester. A single semester is fine if FP is going to be reinforced, thereafter, in other courses.

Also, starting students with FP instead of imperative or OO means less to break down and relearn.

I've read numerous debates that try to define functional programming. I don't want to start another one because they're tedious. My experience is that functional programming is a change in mindset in how to solve a problem and organize code. The instructor's ability to teach matters. The time given to learn matters. Reinforcing the concepts throughout a curriculum matters.

For each point I make above, you could make a valid case for a different FP language/ecosystem. As much as I like Haskell, it's not a "one size fits all".
Uninstalled Facebook and all other social media apps from my phone
What was the treatment?
History has shown their solution doesn't exactly work either. It's almost like you need bits of both - capitalism tempered by some socialist aspects and also looking out for workers.

In fact if you look at the countries that regularly top the lists of best places in the world to live (Australia, Canada, Scandinavia) they all follow that sort of model to various different degrees.
Exercise, water and sleep.
Well, I have a Garmin for GPS (which is arguably inferior but it's fine) and I don't live in an big city so we don't have Uber or Lyft here anyway. I can see how for some people it is a requirement to have a smartphone - esp if you need to be constantly tethered to your email (dev ops etc...)
Ditched multiplayer roleplaying games: I found I was mostly playing these games out of desperation for meaningful interaction and chatting. Though I've replaced that with Discord servers now, so perhaps I should cut that out too.

Does this resolve the issue on the AP side of things? Could I theoretically have an AP update that would resolve this with no need to update clients?
Well, I don't trust professionally managed products (I'm in France as well btw) for various reasons. Basically I think in the long run it's better to manage your portfolio yourself. I'm sure I could get a better return if I was putting more effort into it, but I'm lazy so I don't mind.

Also, at least if I don't earn much I only have myself to blame.
I just came to terms with the fact that I work 100 times better with external motivation. Worked in school, works at the job, needed to find a way to make it work in personal life.

That's been a lot harder - still not good at it. Best I can do is announce things to people beforehand and then work at it as opposed to not working on it and risk appearing all talk.

I'm still working on finding internal motivation - but this is bridging the gap for now.

How much time do you put into the YouTube channel per week / month? I'm seeing on average three 20 minute videos produced per week - so it's at least one hour, but I'd imagine each video takes longer to edit etc?
I started using a habit tracking app. I've always had things I've wanted to stick with (eating healthier, learning a second language, learning how to solve CS-heavier algorithm problems), and this has helped incentivize me to do a little bit each day, or just keep up with important daily tasks like cleaning or using skincare products.
How much is this based on the libsignal-protocol-JavaScript code? Where does it differ from it? Where are the tests to test protocol steps?

I actually love seeing things like this, but it’d be nice if there was some more documentation on the project. Crypto libraries generally aren’t the kind of thing you want to pick up when they’re new unless they are both heavily audited and developed by those with backgrounds in crypto work.
