As a fellow ML enthusiast with similar stomach mysteries. I discovered a year ago i had a reaction to milk which resulted chronic hyperacidity and eczema. I silently suffered from this condition for a decade and half. A month ago i discovered this was a product of A1 protein in milk. A2 milk doesnt hurt me as much.

I don't think vim will have changed too much since then.
I disagree. Microsoft just took typographic design principles that have been extant for decades and which were already commonplace in print and web design and applied them wholesale to UI design.

There are situations where this makes perfect sense, but it was hardly a sensible approach to UI design on the whole. Metro was widely criticized for making it more difficult for users to be productive, which I would argue is the primary concern of any desktop operating system. And indeed, Microsoft quickly moved beyond Metro in favor of Fluent, a design language that is much more in keeping with Apple’s current design language than it is with Metro.

Metro, despite being relatively popular with UI designers and developers, totally flopped with users, who did not find joy in using it at all. With Metro, Microsoft attempted to cut out UI chrome in favor of content. The idea being that removing chrome would make room for content. Instead, they ended up treating content as chrome, leaving substantially less room for actual content. Microsoft failed to meet their own design goals for Metro. And what’s worst, they seemingly failed to recognize that they had failed for quite some time.

Apple’s human interface design guidelines for iOS, while far from perfect, are a much truer realization of the design principles that Microsoft set out to implement with Metro. Rather than treating content as chrome, chrome is reduced to its most basic elements, retaining its ability to inform the user as to its function, while minimally detracting from content.
Right there with you. A coincidence to kick the action off at the very beginning can be cool. Using it as glue leads to really awkward transitions, but I'll forgive it once. More than 2 uncanny coincidences in a season? No longer uncanny, I often stop watching.

Dexter became a coincidence parade after the first season. But I couldn't keep watching once he became bad at murder. Relatability isn't a virtue if your character starts with a premise of prenatural skill, power, emotional baggage or any other attribute. I do not want to see dexter leave his wallet at a crime scene, let alone over and over again.

I stopped watching Arrow after it became clear that every single villain was going to be related to him in some way. "A-ha, what you didn't know is that I was your father's limo driver!"

I stopped watching True Blood when Bontemps started running out of citizens without a mystical hidden identity. If that show had been given another season the sherif would have been revealed a water elemental.

I could go on.
I wonder about this, in that it's a common trope, yet it does not really seem affirmed by evidence. In seeking evidence, there's of course a major problem of bias - yet presumably we'd expect some significant number of these lazy geniuses to achieve and garner some place in history yet they are conspicuously absent. When we think of individuals of substantial intellect there often tends to be an associated abnormally obsessive work ethic. Elon Musk is the typical example today who needs no further elaboration, but he's far from unique in this. Consider autodidacts such as Srinivasa Ramnujan - he not only greatly expanded mathematics but 'reinvented the wheel' in vast chunks of the field before he died... at the age of 32.

Maybe the best example is Einstein, if only because he's been falsely spun as this sort of trope. I'm not sure where the myth of Einstein doing poorly at math at an early age came from, but it's fake. Instead of just being whimsical and bored, he sought out a challenge when his assigned courses were unable to provide that. A quote from Einstein when asked of this rumor is, "I never failed in mathematics. Before I was fifteen, I had mastered differential and integral calculus." And his notes and works were prolific driven by another incredible work ethic.

I think the wandering mind is certainly fair, but that wandering is often directed towards finding challenges to which an unprecedented level of energy is put forward, often for years or decades at a time, to great achievement.
How Important Is International Trade to Each U.S. State's Economy?
Not sure why you're downvoted here, this is a very fair concern. Microsoft is as impressive as it gets - they've been around for over 40 years, and are still extremely relevant. Tech has a graveyard full of impressive companies that no longer exist - Google and Facebook are sitting on campuses of two such examples. Whatever Microsoft is or isn't doing admirably, they've stuck and that itself is impressive in this industry.

My understanding (as a secular Jew, so I could be wrong) is that the attitude is that if God hadn't meant for there to be loopholes like this, He wouldn't have written the rules this way in the first place. In a way, trying to obey the spirit rather than the letter of the law is implying imperfection on the part of the author of the laws.

significantly decreasing the power that managers hold treating organization problems

While the article gave examples of this in Google, I haven't seen this happening in Amazon. Engineering Managers here hold a lot of power on the business side of their product (in addition to the usual career growth of their reportees and project management). For e.g., a PM (product manager) can suggest what we should build next, but the final call is very much, if not all, up to the EM. Another example is annual planning- EMs play an important role in deciding, around the end of each year, what their team will build next year.

Microsoft — the epitome of high pressure big software, abuse of market dominance, decline, and then pivot into new relevance. IBM II. I don’t know that there’s much about their culture or current business that’s particularly admirable.

I recently read Satya Nadella's book, Hit Refresh, where he talks at length about the culture change he is driving at Microsoft. I gathered that his intentions are good, but the book felt like a hotch-potch of ideas without any clear direction. I'd assume that to change the core culture of a company as big as Microsoft, you'd have to start with some basic themes or ideas and build a more detailed plan on top of them. What I found was a long unstructured list of things he wants to do that didn't seem practical at Microsoft-scale.
I know how they work, it's just that they don't seem more dangerous than other things in my daily commute (walking on a subway platform next to many people, walking on a street filled with cars, etc). It seems almost impossible to get accidentally hurt by a paternoster, unless you try to.
One thing that’s been really motivating at Microsoft lately is a sudden increase in the number of hackathons. In each of the last three months I’ve had the freedom to spend a week working on something completely separate from my day job (all focused on a different high priority business goal) and the organizers have done a good job of getting executives to attend the final presentations.

It’s been extremely motivating. There has been a marked shift in our lunch conversations from complaining about engineering systems and technical debt to brainstorming and pitching ideas to each other.

It’s also a lot of fun to dive into code you’ve never touched, and meeting new people along the way. When you tell people you need help with a crazy, time-limited experiment they seem much more likely to want to help.
There were several discussions earlier this week about it. That would be my guess.

The Colorado Genebank That Keeps Foods from Going Extinct
My biggest problem with logic programming is that my imperative brain can't make the jump to thinking in those terms. Maybe if someone could post a bunch of examples comparing idiomatic python to prolog I could start to think in those terms. There is a 99 problems in Prolog, but those aren't exactly what I think is needed. I think that should also be done for functional programming, but I find FP far easier to grok.

The article completely misses the threat model, or the comparison on the threat models. FOR REGULAR USERS, the choice is to either have an easy to remember/guess/same password on every Internet-exposed site, OR to use the password saver with a potentially easy to guess local password while using longer/harder/different passwords on each site. The second model is far stronger than the first, as one now has at least some protection from the enitre Internet and unscrupulous web site operators. A local compromise is bad of course, but that affects both models equally as either the password database is stolen, a keylogger is installed, or any of the number of other issues that arise from gaining local access to a system.
I'd be interest to know if the previous move affects the speed of the next.

It might be possible the longer solutions are mechanically quicker.

It's important to note that not every member of a religious group interprets rules or follows them in the same manner. There are strict Orthodox Jewish sects that hew closely to these laws, and I've known many people from a Reform Jewish background who don't even keep Kosher. You see the same thing in Christianity with branches having varying degrees of liberal/strict rules. Individuals within those groups are even more varied still--for example many Catholics visit the Church only for Christmas/Easter and use birth control.

services billions of users (the kind of scale only rivaled by companies like Google) and worth $500b+

A lot of people, not necessarily including the author, don't realize the niche challenges involved in running really high-scale services. They present hard problems, which just aren't there at low scale.

They're Google's arch nemesis when it comes to recruiting, for one.

And advertising. Facebook's advertising business is huge, probably only 2nd to Google's. Now, it is possible that Facebook's extreme focus on advertising and user engagement will drive off many of its users, in which case the advertising model won't sustain long-term. However, today it is big.

I am 57. And 40 years in software development. And I would say yes, but with some caveats.

First, the speed with which new frameworks and tools come out, definitely slows things down, because of the need to learn them all over again.
Second, part of my past productivity was thanks to me writing on top of what existed.
Example: 20 years ago I wrote a new product in PHP/HTML etc. Had both realtime and CRUD. I predicted that in the end it would need a lot of screens, so I started with writing an extensive, data-driven screen library. This was the main reason we could crank out new features like crazy.
2 years ago I picked up Laravel, the 'best of breed' these days, and was surprised that it did not include anything that.

On the other hand, the field has advanced considerably: concepts gaining traction like immutability, functional programming, CI/CD, containerization, really helped moving everything forward. So I'm not an old grumpy greybeard that claims there's nothing new under the sun, and am really exited about a lot of the new stuff. Which I am happy to use.

I started out with mainframe assembler and C, and am now in Elixir, Docker, React Native. Higher level languages really help general productivity. So my answer is yes, we have become more productive.

Measuring the Emotional Toll of Mesothelioma
No, I didn't miss the threat model. I am all for password managers, in fact I am even developing one myself. The sad truth is however, most password managers aren't exactly a shining example of security best practices. This blog post is simply me being disappointed seeing Mozilla do so poorly. As things are now, the master password on the Firefox password manager (a common recommendation meant to improve security) is little more than security theater. But I'm not saying of course that no password manager whatsoever is a better solution.
This article is coming from a place of old thinking when it comes to addiction recovery. On top of that, it strikes me as trying to shame Manjoo, which would be a harmful thing to attempt to do toward anyone, but especially toward an addict. The author seems to apply black-and-white thinking in the form of abstinence-only recovery. Also, everyone's point of sufficient disconnection will be different based on the person, as well as what kind of effects they wish to see. Rigid thinking is another sign of addiction, so is OP's author demonstrating their own need for growth through their rigid definition of "disconnection"? To better understand these points, here's a little bit about why I have these views:

I'm a recovering information addict of a little over 2 years and doing so requires changing our definitions of what classic recovery looks like.

Abstinence models (ie. "completely unplugging," which is not what Manjoo did) for recovery are unrealistic and can contribute to shame components of addiction. As well, the common characterizations of lapses/relapses can inhibit growth/learning.

It's not possible to completely disconnect from information and, therefore, it's possible to see great benefits from any dramatic behavioral change around an info source (or multiple ones). OP's author seems to be applying some form of black and white thinking and assumes they know how much disconnection is necessary for Manjoo to see differences. That's not possible, so the underlying premise of OP isn't wrong, but it's moot. The true question is did Manjoo see a shift in their reality/experience. That's the question we need more data to answer and it may only be self-reported qualitative data. That's ok.

The chart in these spreadsheets confirms their behavior shifted dramatically and I know that can lead to effects.

In my case, completely disconnecting wasn't enough. I had to stop looking things up in books before withdrawal symptoms showed up in the form of vivid dreams that woke me up 1-3 times per night. That withdrawal period lasted 9 months and I wasn't completely disconnected throughout the period, but I mostly was. I have device usage data front then and intend to publish it as part of a larger work on addiction recovery, in general.

It took me 9 months to dissect and reprogram my behavior to the point that my mind didn't have to live out in dreams what I was removing. I absolutely believe a sharp, sustained decrease in Twitter usage is enough to spot basic ways in which excessive behavior negatively impacts life.

> Most of the apps we are seeing today don't make any sense anyway. Very much smacks of the dotcom bubble, where people who suspected that the Internet would change the world were absolutely correct, but then the companies and ideas they put their money behind were missing the mark by miles.

This is the crux of the problem. The cryptocurrencies with the highest valuations right now are ones with serious technical and social flaws--people are investing in cryptocurrencies based on hype rather than merit.

Ethereum is the most egregious example: the idea that a JavaScript-like language is what you'd want to write your security-intensive code in is mind-boggling-ly stupid, and after the community showed themselves to be willing to perform a 51% attack on their own blockchain to fix a problem with the DAO, it's not even decentralized any more. So technically you have all the downsides of writing secure software in JavaScript, and socially you have all the problems of centralization AND all the problems of decentralization. The security flaw this thread is about would be a critical vulnerability to any competent security developer, but it's really minor compared to the more fundamental flaws.

But even in competently-developed cryptocurrencies, the problems are still there because people don't understand or value decentralization, which is literally the entire reason Blockchain is worthwhile. The number of people who buy cryptocurrencies and then leave their coins sitting on an exchange is incredible. You're literally donating money to the world's biggest bug bounties when you do that.
