I knew in advance what I would be told, and I knew how to fix myself but found a hard time starting. It doesn't sound stupid, at all. When you talk to a therapist, they'll tell you what you already know, and maybe tell you some new things to try, and definitely tell you some things you don't want to hear.

The weird thing that I didn't expect was that it works for the one reason I didn't consider. I was fine with disappointing myself (even used to it), but I didn't want to disappoint someone else. I didn't want to go back and tell them that I didn't try, so I tried. I tried a little more each week, and eventually got to the point where there was nothing left to try, and nothing left to discuss. Now I just let the meds slowly rewire my chemical imbalances without the need for talk therapy.
Hopefully this gets developed more and is actually able to run games
Great news, Leaflet is the standard for open source web maps. This release looks to have a lot of nice quality of life improvements.

I've been a little worried about Leaflet's future vs. Mapbox GL JS. That's also an excellent open source map library, but is based entirely on new technology (vector maps and GL) and favors using Mapbox's paid services. I think Leaflet has a long life ahead for folks who want something simpler, something that can easily composite raster data from many sources.

I think you may have meant semi-annual (every 6 months). In my opinion, every 3 to 6 months is a good checkpoint for a more formal evaluation, but that ongoing communication should take place through regular meetings every 1-2 weeks.

I'm inclined to agree, but it's a debatable grey area. Archive.org has emulators for some older systems, so that's great. I've also heard of the big console manufacturers actually using community-built / open-source emulators themselves to allow for re-releasing their own games on newer systems.

I think every console manufacturer should release their own legal emulators; companies like Nintendo could make a lot of money off of a NES or GB(A) emulator on smartphones, they can keep selling their classics for $1-$5 apiece.
It looks nice, however there's no support for standard readline bindings?
> You don't have to match the energy burn, just the hash rate (so efficiency matters).

Of course, but I don't know how anyone could be a lot more efficient that current miners, who are in a rat race to increase the efficiency of their mining operations. They probably think about energy consumption every waking hour of the day.

> You also don't have to do it all at once, you just have to be faster than the network (If the private blocks are calculated 10% faster it only takes ~10 days to go back in time 1 day)...

Of course, but by then the Bitcoin network would have invested ~10 more days of energy into the network, and now instead of being one day behind, one would be ~10 days behind. One would have a different, forked blockchain far behind the original one, with no hope of catching up.

If one wants to modify a transaction from a day ago over time, one must burn at least one day's worth of Bitcoin network energy consumption much faster than the network, in order to keep up with the network. If one wants to modify a transaction from a day ago right now, one must burn at least one day's worth of Bitcoin network energy consumption in an instant.

PS. Note that I mean without forking. SORRY if that wasn't clear in my earlier comments!
That depends on how you look at it. If you look at it as a change from the current system it would likely be mostly a benefit to the rich.

If you see it as an alternative to paying nothing (we wipe the slate clean and then consider each system by comparing it to that) the rich will still pay by far the most.

If you are concerned with a minimum form of income, you can always give a certain amount of credits to each person at no cost to them.

This is generally how it works in the UK, except for newbies who tend to always stop completely rather than try to time the merge where possible... I've heard that this is actually taught in advanced driving in the UK (to maintain flow when possible, time merges etc). Frankly there are some roundabouts in cities at rush hour which are frightening for new drivers and you just can't join unless you have good timing and can get up to speed quickly (or get a lucky smooth merge).
Do any countries actually require it? I think in the US, UK and probably other western countries you choose to change your name and either the man or woman can change if they want - it’s totally optional either way isn’t it?
There's already an "emulator" that's used to make Homebrew. It has zero graphics support, only enough to debug basic homebrew tools.

This is the first one that is "marketed" as an emulator.
I was wondering the same after reading the top comment by teekert, which came across as somewhat defensive (and not to mention off-topic) to me. I can see it being a result of (tacit?) societal pressure. Perhaps a "you are not good enough if you are not working on side projects" programmer anxiety, which leads to highlighting say one's parental accomplishments in order to compensate for that perceived inferiority.

We are all different in regards to our hobbies. Some enjoy raising children, some enjoy travelling, and some enjoy working on side projects. Can't we just co-exist in peace?
Depending on the organization, roles in project management or analysis are non-developer routes to management.
> AmaGooBookSoft hires, to a first approximation, only pedigreed developers with their AKC papers in hand.

I think that is a very outdated view of those companies. IME at least, you've described Google's hiring process pretty accurately but are fairly incorrect about the rest.

In particular, Amazon is hiring like crazy [1]. Even back when I graduated, Amazon was known for being a place that was easy to get into if you were willing to stomach the sometimes-insane workload (which still pales in comparison to some startup sweatshop horror stories).

Again, I didn't graduate from a program with much name recognition and AmaGooAppleFaceSoft still snatched up 45% of my graduating class.

> (actually: pretty much just GooBook)

I'm not sure why you're only including those two.

Amazon share prices have quintupled over the last 5 years. If you were compensated with RSUs you've done very well for yourself.

I know several MS software engineers who were (very recently) paid roughly $150K + $100K in equity each of their first four years (admittedly after attaining their Master's, though I'm not sure how much it helped).

>90% of it is bad and completely unconvincing argument by analogy.

What analogy?
I'd hazard a guess - perhaps people feel a cultural pressure in tech circles in a way that doesn't apply to writing essays. Reading HN can make you feel like wantrepreneur sometimes reading about interesting things other people shipped, and the title of that article may have struck a chord as being a bit accusatory.

Also I noticed the language this author used was "How I..." instead of "How to...", which makes it more personal. Although folks on this blog are rational and calm most of the time, even subtle wording can trigger one's ego and make it hard to contain instinctive primitive fight-or-flight instincts that can override rational thoughts.
Artist here. I've tried both the Xacto and KUM sharpeners mentioned in this thread. Both are now long, long in the trash after dulling and becoming useless. What you want is a Mobius+Ruppert sharpener. They're machined from solid brass, their weight feels amazing in your hand, they're a beautiful tool, AND, most importantly, you can buy replacement blades. This was the #1 selling point for me. They're about $10 and will ACTUALLY, truly, sincerely last a life time. You can't break 'em. Hell, you could smash a windshield with one if you threw it hard enough.

I adore mine. It lives in a pretty cut crystal candy bowl in a nest of colored pencil shavings.

FWIW, every single thing that ended up becoming my main thing or made me serious money began as a pointless side project I did for the fun of it. (I've always been self employed though, so this style of work goes with the territory.)

There is more than one path to becoming your best self, and your best self isn't how everyone else should be, and vice versa.

Side projects may be more glamourized and relatable on this site than say, writing.

Side projects, hobbies, and how we choose to value our time should not be confused with product and business building - in our 20's we collect a lot of experience at random things because we don't know what we're fully doing yet.

Building side projects is OK - just for the sake of building them or learning something new, because we can afford to do in in time or money. Many big and grand outcomes often start as small and relevant solutions.

The other thing that happens through our 20's is we become less of a follower looking to what others are doing and more self-directed as we head into your 30's.

There's a simple answer to "Everyone's doing a side project? Why do I suck?" It doesn't matter.

Becoming well rounded means organically finding new interests and priorities (including love, family, kids, hobbies) and in some cases becoming more well rounded for the type of future you may want.
I'm not sure that would work, though. "Credible" randomware could pretty easily demonstrate that they do decrypt after payment, because someone will always try paying.
In theory, however that's a lot of added complexity. Maintaining 2 systems, managing upgrades, schema updates, scaling, and more all becomes much more complicated with that.

A large part of the "value add" of something like this is that it's simple and easy to maintain, and doing a 2-stage system like that kind of removes that benefit somewhat.
It depends on what people value. Seattle (like Portland) does have gloomy winters--as does a lot of the northern tier of the US. But it doesn't get big snowfalls, bitter temperatures or--in the summer--long stretches of hot, humid weather or blisteringly hot and dry weather. The summer in Seattle tends to be about as pleasant as anywhere.

I can certainly see someone preferring Phoenix or Las Vegas, say, to Seattle in terms of weather but I wouldn't personally.

(I do agree that weather is perhaps one of the least relevant factors to this decision.)
Shipping probably stands for an "official" end of your project. Knowing that you concluded it in an useful state. That's the rewarding part, I guess.

Emulators are also great for the speedrunning community. They especially help in developing TAS's (Tool Assisted Speedruns), which contribute strats back to the human runners and push the boundaries of how fast games can be beaten.

Well done to you for growing the thread using the word "seeding."
The article makes an extraordinarily valuable point: It's never going to be only about hard work. But as an outside observer I also look at what she's done and think "This is such a good example of perseverance and grit."

As Seneca supposedly said, "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity". Sometimes opportunity is shy and you have to look a lot longer than you'd prefer. But I fully believe that if someone keeps at it, they can find their luck.
Le Journal du hacker https://www.journalduhacker.net, basically a lobste.rs-like website for french-speaking FOSS community.
Not a great article, but the idea is worth discussing. For me, Model-View-Controller has morphed to Model-Controller-Frontend. Server side templating has been dropped and replaced with a JS framework. For complex web applications it's a great fit which allows you to move quickly but stably.

I now pretty exclusively use statically typed backends with js frontends. This gives me stability where I need it, and rapid development where I need it.

It's really still MVC, but the V got bigger and has been separated from the M and C. MC-V?
Of course you cant get the same for them! It is expected that a fork that creates new coins out of thin air will lead to cheaper coins.

There has been growing pressure in the developer community to have side projects as a way to prove your worth.

People take a dim view of developers who don’t do anything outside of work. If you’re not coding something in your off hours and keeping a portfolio of successful projects it must mean you are not passionate enough, or smart enough, or ambitious enough. And they take the opinion that that is not the kind of developer companies should hire, nor that they want to associate with.

Side projects thus become a sort of humble brag, instead of a project built out of genuine interest. Many developers are building things they don’t seem to give a shit about beyond how it will help their career prospects.

These notions need to end.
If you see somebody reading it at the bus stop, you can grab it out of their hands and run away.
For many couples it’s a traditional part of the change a marriage brings and the symbolism is worth the inconvenience. Women wear wedding rings and they’re not materially useful either and have a cost. Inconvenient symbolism isn’t an unusual part of human culture!
In the US marriage is not a federal institutional but a state one. I don’t know other state rules, I would be surprised if any require names to change.

I know that in California, at least when I got married, both people are allowed (or just one person) to take the others name or some combination of both names.

I was curious at the time, but never checked, if the combination could literally just be any combination of the letters of both. My guess is it would be the county clerk you deal with who’d decide to accept it or not.
Of course. I was rather conveying what it meant to me - based on how it is used at work and in my general experience.
I was not obviously commenting on the content but on a trend of coming up with measurements that make for a catchy title.
You just have to have the "higher" energy cost, you don't need to have the same blockchain. So if you are 10% faster, you can go back in time an interval t once you have burned ~10t.

This is why the demonstration would fracture Bitcoin; it would reveal the hidden mining power and second there would be a bunch of discussion of ignoring the higher cost chain and sticking with social consensus.
The psychology of relative status garners a lot of attention to understand inequality. Of course there is backlash to front-of-house folks seeing their relative status decrease, despite the fact that nothing has changed for them. A difficult, but crucial adaptation needs to happen in a wide variety of industries: The people working the less glamorous, less visible, but equally crucial roles in operating these businesses should have been treated as peers / relative equals all along.

The converse is also true in software engineering. Questions like whether programming is "more difficult" than graphic design are largely irrelevant. Humans will always be playing status games, but denigrating labor based on some perceived skill level is a habit we should actively be trying to get rid of. Meanwhile...

> There is a knock-on effect although depending on the spread it might be small.

Can you provide more specific detail where knock-on effects like this have been observed? It's nearly guaranteed that a decrease on low end rents will be vanishingly small. Margins can only go so low, which is why developers are attracted to luxury projects in the first place.

(Likewise, a million dollar paycut from a CEO can only raise 480 person-hour-dollars in wages. But those margins matter a hell of a lot more for the line worker's lifestyle than upper management's.)

> That's an easy 'problem' to solve. Empty housing has no need for public services like roads / schools and they still pay property taxes. Just keep building housing and let the speculators subsidize city services. Until, the bubble bursts and suddenly you get lot's of cheap housing on the market.

Property taxes are part of the problem in many cases. When property taxes are low that doesn't really happen, but when they're high nobody wants to build new housing. Because the net present value of the future property tax comes out of what someone will pay for a new building, making it less profitable to construct one.
So what do the kids take for their last name then?
You hit me right in the feels, bud.
Well it worked for me. I released an indie game title this year while my github is full of half finished old projects. Pretty much only thing I did differently was a public deadline and a few people that supported me to finish it on it (more like nagging tbh :))

I am sure this is not for everyone but I agree with OP about being public. Otherwise you just find a thousand excuses to not to finish anything

2 parents and 8 kids?
IMO the main reason is that your kids bear the father’s last name. Convention has it that kids bear the father‘s name, and this „works better“ if everybody in the family has the same name. I‘m not saying it is good or anything.. but this is the reason why many in my country (Austria) marry before the first child arrives.
