pyenv/pipenv are for your development. pipsi is for installing Python tools/applications that you just want to use, like apt/yum.
You're not wrong, the objective is assumed to be Lipshitz which is continuous.
1. "You're argument" should be "Your argument".

2. No, my argument is not assuming anything - that's why I said "debatable" not "incorrect". At least for some of the soda drinkers like myself, we prefer sipping with a straw - but probably a steel straw preferably now.
If you compare this underwater spacetravel whitepaper I wrote in 2008 to, say, the TCP/IP RFC, then you'd also expect AOL-comparable underwater space travel usage in 2030, more or less.

So there would still be Directors and Sr. Managers who would outline their vision for the product/teams, which would be further mapped to UseCase scenarios or feature Stories by Product managers.

"The main issue is that bad managers have a strong negative impact and most managers on software projects are bad."

>> precisely this is the main motivation of my Ask, to see that if tooling could reduce (if not eliminate) bad team managers..so basically only Tech lead or Sr.Engineers (who code up to a verifiable percent) would be part of the Engineering team which in turn would be managed by an intelligent "VirtualTeamManager" tool and this tool would be tuned with inputs from Sr.Manager and Director (of that team).

Let me know your thoughts further..
I bet you won’t. The amount of PTFE consumed by the typical person is minuscule compared to the amount of PE they use. People buy Teflon pans maybe once every decade. They buy more PE with a single bottle of soda.

For that matter, most people probably have more PTFE in their plumbing than stored in their kitchen cabinets.
He's not totally wrong here. The "IMU" you're using consists of a fix, clock, compass, and airspeed indicator (in my case). You're doing the same basic stuff that inertial guidance would do but slower and with less accuracy.

And going back to the great-great-great grandparent comment, I've heard from instructors and other pilots that the 'dead' bit of the word came originally from a shortening of 'deduced'. Something like 'deduced' -> 'ded' -> 'dead' or so. I'm not totally sure of the accuracy of that etymology but it sounds plausible to me.
You may not get as large of cuts as others, but if you are paying more taxes than the previous year you have some very special circumstances or have a really bad accountant. I'll actually be seeing a significant reduction in taxes due to the 20% pass through benefit and doubled standard deduction.

>The new disruptor will appear that will initiate a huge shift in users.

Kind of. But it shouldn't be a mental model where something like Facebook, but better, comes along. Rather, you should expect something that fulfills the same emotional, practical need or occupies time that makes people use Facebook less, but fulfills a need that better clicks with what people want.

As an analogy, consider how Apple and Microsoft flipped places. It's not that Mac OS was like Windows but better and supplanted them. Rather, smartphones changed the game in such a way that Microsoft's core strengths didn't seem so strong anymore. Apple was able to innovate in such a way because of their DNA as a design focused product company, but those strengths didn't get to shine until the paradigm shifted to favor cohesive product experiences rather than versatile software platforms.

So the thing that supplants Facebook won't look like Facebook, it'll be some better way to keep in touch with people from previous walks of life, get in arguments with your distant family members, and share photos. And it won't happen all at once either. It'll probably sit as some obscure niche for a while as it slowly refines itself and evolves.
You might not but you should.

If you don't care about the welfare of your cows they will not grow as large and you'll have less product to sell.

Putting that in more literal terms, if you damage the user experience you will damage user engagement and your ad revenue is going to fall.

There's certainly tricks to treat the cows poorly and still profit for a while but this sort of behavior has killed many companies.
If Wall Street/investors are so out of touch that a vacuous tweet of a socialite can have so much effect, to me that’s a different issue entirely. Not to mention one reason this could happen is if the stock price was grossly overvalued in the first place. In general, I don’t see anything specifically illegal about this.
Most programmers don't have to pick up phone at 9PM nor respond mails, if you do you have royally shitty management. I work as a programmer and I am happy with that. There were projects that were under stress and pressure, but 9pm necessary email is purely self shot by bad management.

Teachers are normally expected to work at least one of those months and cant take vacation during year. I can and that saves us money and we have less crowded places to visit. You cant come an hour later or come later from lunch or what have you - perfectly normal things for programmer. You cant work remote - working remote a few days a week is completely acceptable for programmers.

Teachers do actually work evenings - all that grading and similar things.

Nurses shifts are opposite of flexibility. Flexibility as I have, when I can come as I please and leave as I please is unheard of. As a programmer I have colleagues who occasionally take off Wednesday off and work Sunday instead. They have negotiation leverage for that.

I don't know what you mean with stuff about adulting, it is irrelevant. My point was that female dominated fields are not the ones with flexible working time, there was even study about it. The idea that women on average have more flexible kinds of jobs is fantasy based on peoples idea on what is practical for primary caregiver. Female primary caregivers whose husbands cant do (or who want to do everything by themselves) have part time jobs.
I travel a lot and have stayed at 50+ airbnb places all around the world -- but the biggest problem is that the reviews are always so artificial you honestly have zero idea of what you're getting into.

Worst of all is the amenities, which are more often incorrect than not. I generally filter for places with washer + drier, as I'd rather not be looking for laundromats. Probably over 80% of listings that say they have a washer and drier do not. Most of the time the "drier" is a drying rack or a hair drier. Other times the host explains that I can visit his house or a laundromat, so that counts. Or the last place there was a shared washing machine between 30+ places.

And because you can't leave anonymous tips, I just add the problem by leaving positive reviews even when I'm unhappy with the place. Currently my airbnb profile shows me an an exceptional guest (I have nothing but positive reviews for me, and have given nothing but positive reviews) so have never had a problem getting any place I want. I don't really want to pollute my profile with candid feedback.

When I'm staying somewhere for 1 or 2 nights, I tend to just get a hotel. There's too much friction and problems in airbnb for it to be worth it.

Yeah, I remembered Digg. It's fascinating (in a bad way, really) to see something so giant, suddenly crashed so hard in a very short period of time. I'm always wondering if reddit will go down that way too.
Why aren't we using sonar for this sort of thing. Bats have nailed down the echo location thing in extremely heavy bat traffic, but I don't see that being something that has been vigorously pursued by tech companies.
But by not having a maximum line length, everyone gets to bikeshed where to insert line breaks. Thus gofmt isn't doing its job.

(Again, maybe line length doesn't matter much in Go, since lines generally don't get that long in Go, but for lots of other languages gofmt's choice would not be acceptable.)
Crazy that we still use apps instead of protocols for feeds and video. What's the closest thing to an open substitute? I've been looking at Gajim for XMPP + video chat https://gajim.org/

For the more severe anxiety disorders, the proof of efficacy above placebo is much better than what we have for depression. People don't get better by taking placebos for their OCD. For anyone experiencing anxiety problems, I highly recommend finding a competent therapist who knows CBT. For anxiety that constantly interferes with daily life, medication may be appropriate.

For me the SSRIs completely wiped out my OCD to the point where I sometimes forget that I have problems with anxiety. Depression is downright benign compared to how bad the situation can get with other psychiatric disorders. Unfortunately the demand for competent medical professionals far outstrips what is available.

I do agree that SSRIs are over-prescribed for minor depression problems, but let's not demonize a whole class of medications which are highly useful for more serious psychiatric issues.

If you are in product development, the lesson is that any change has a cost and impact to your users, so you need to make sure that the benefits outweigh the cost and plan for resistance.

It seems it keeps a ledger somewhere (haven't dug into it). Then to run commands, instead of using `python main.py`, you now use `pipenv run python main.py` and it automates things. It still depends on Virtualenv.

As an alternative, Pyenv + Pyenv Virtualenv work by creating the environments in a separate folder. You can then `cd` into a project root folder and there use `pyenv local x` and every time you `cd` into the directory or a subdirectory, it looks up the tree until it finds a `.local` file. This specifies the environment. It can be a Python version or a Virtualenv and it loads it.

And it is successful in that. It is obviously unsuccessful in applying a style that you find aesthetically pleasing—alas!

It's not successful if everyone puts line breaks in different places. By punting on that problem, gofmt isn't enforcing one style of code.

if you come across something not in it then add it. Maybe review it over time and if someone new starts on the team.

At this point it’s hard to think of a major app or OS that hasn’t done something to royally screw over its users with unwanted updates that changed everything for the worse.

There needs to be a mechanism for making certain user guarantees, especially once money has been exchanged. And arguably since “time is money”, if you have invested a certain amount of time in something that’s then been messed up by the provider, you should receive similar guarantees because you’ve essentially “paid” a lot for it.

One of the problems is that it’s just too easy for companies to radically revamp things freely. Open-source used to sort of defend against this with the forking option. Too many modern devices are now locked-down to the point where open-source isn’t feasible for much of the software you’re likely to need.

Another problem is that too many updates are able to lump the bad with the good. Perhaps we need a way to force entities to develop their software features in such a way that at least two independent classes of updates are feasible: for example, allowing users to skip stupid UI revamps without becoming completely unable to receive other bug fixes.
I cannot imagine that the ecological impact of a canvas bag that gets reused hundreds of times is higher than hundreds of plastic bags that get used once.

CO2 production is also not the only impact. How much canvas is floating in the ocean and clogging up rivers?

This is moving a bit tangentially to the topic at hand but I love pyenv (and rbenv) for the same reason.

My question is now that I'm having to do more PHP development again: is there anything like this for PHP? Last time I looked it seems there were a couple attempts (including phpenv[0]) but that they never caught on or were abandoned.

Is there something like this for PHP? If not, any idea why not? Is phpenv so stable that it hasn't need to be touched in 5 years?

I agree for the bags, the cups... but not the straws. I am not going to give steel straws to my kids. They are dangerous (no more walking while drinking), hard to clean, heavy, they can't play with it... But it's not because I use plastic straw that I don't reuse them, a "disposable straw" usually last nearly a week if the are not used with something hard to clean like syrup or milk.

As for the bag side of things, we use PET bags [1] here in Switzerland, which lasts between 6 months and a year. They where even available for free at some point. Not even mentioning the environment, those bags are highly superior to plastic bags, bigger, easier to handle and much more robust.

That's a non-sequitur if I've ever seen one. A non-negligible portion of users are conservative in their tastes for UI change... therefore ignore a non-negligible portion of your users.

That attitude is exactly what's wrong with the tech world today.
Isn't that just a 'bug' in the algorithm for code-layout - that the symbol names weren't unique enough or something? This would require some breaking-changes in the way libraries are laid out and linked against, but basically you "should" be able to statically compile a dependency and then effectively hide all the symbols from its dependencies so nothing else knows how to link against them directly.

I really enjoy the update. I've posted this before, but I like the focus on my friends, the isolation of the branded content, and the ability to mute specific people's stories. I hope people get used to it rather than rolling it back or killing the app.
I think Reddit still has a moat.

There have been attempts to do something else, such as voat, but those generally become either A) more akin to subreddits than reddit (like this very site) or B) ideological havens for groups not welcome on reddit.

In voat's case, when reddit begin banning overt racism from white supremacists and calls for violence, as well as communities dedicated to hating fat people or women, those radicalized users all fled to voat. That toxic core userbase makes the site untenable for the masses who are repulsed by such naked racism, prejudice and other evil content.

So I don't really see anyone waiting in the reddit wings. The ones that were there before are still there (SA, fark, /.), and the ones that follow aren't poised to be the same thing.

A lot of companies (such as Google/ABC Waymo) are actually looking into Lidar applications. Sonar is good, but Lidar is an order of magnitude faster. In fact, 1,000,000 times faster than speed of sound.
Lidar kind of works the same way, but is a lot faster (speed of light vs speed of sound)

I could also see sonar taking a lot more energy to use all the time as compared to Lidar.

BMI's predictive usefulness is based on people looking like when it was developed (it's an index, so you have to choose values for "normal", "overweight", etc).

Back then, people in the "normal" band had more muscle and less fat than they do today. From what I understand, body-fat % is a much better metric for individual health outcomes, and BMI is a rough proxy to that. Taking two populations of the same BMI, one from say 40 years ago and one now, the one now will be fatter and less healthy.

The core problem is that BMI is a proxy for what you're actually trying to measure: body composition. Height and weight gets you there on average, if you make some assumptions about the average composition. If average composition gets worse, BMI becomes more inaccurate.
It's also super easy to build Python from source and manage the paths yourself, in case the magic tools fail to deliver the desired Python version.
