Maybe dwelling for a long time on those things is how some people learn. Not everyone can think about something in the past for a brief moment, learn everything and then discard it. Sometimes it takes years to interpret everything, and put the pieces together.

Thinking about something briefly and then moving on cold turkey is often completely phony: basically a form of denial. You're not free if you have "off limits" areas that you don't let yourself think about.
Historically, the money in London has always been in the finance sector. Both large banks and hedge funds.
Well, presumably Wells Fargo is worried about two things: The buyer not being able to pay them back AND that the buyer's card details are being used fraudulently.

Can't ding their credit rating if their card details got stolen.
I agree. I think it's good for the overall GraphQL community to have John's support. I purchased the book out of support for his work mainly, but I know it will be a good read as well.
Their health is not improved by having everyone they meet tell them they are unfixable and utterly ruined for life.

I really like the typographical choices here, the website really looks like printed paper and it's a joy to read.

Sadly, the displaying does not fit mobile screens correctly and I have to scroll back and forth on the horizontal axis... @chameco, cyou should fix it imho: the design of the webpage is otherwise really really good!
It's in a very rough state, but I have been working on something similar. The idea is to build a superoptimizer by exhaustive enumeration of instruction sequences. In a first pass, each sequence is executed on some test machine states, and bucketed by the hash of the results. On the second pass, we use a theorem prover to check the equivalence of the sequences.

I'm in California, but facing much the same situation. I've said it before and I will say it again... I think people are ignorant of divorce laws and simply do not realize how much financial damage a motivated (i.e. nut-job) ex can get cause if they decide they want to.

To give an example, I have my 2 kids almost 50/50 split custody (I have them 6pm Thursday to 6pm Sunday) and had my child support set at $1700 per month. This was on top of an additional $1800 per month of spousal support, which I had to give up my 401k to pay off because I couldn't afford that much monthly expense). My ex makes variable income of $3,500 to $5000 per month working part time as a wedding photographer.
My wages are garnished, and if I ever have a change in circumstances, I will have to go through a lengthy court process just for a shot at that. In the meantime, I would be responsible for the original amount plus interest until such time as the court saw fit to change it.

I'm a good father. I love my kids and want to support them. The way the system is currently structured, if you made more money than your spouse during the marriage, you have to provide the same "lifestyle" as you had during the marriage to your children, regardless if they are in your care or not. I struggle to make ends meet, while my ex is able to live comfortably, take them on numerous expensive vacations, etc. because so much of my income is given to the other party as child support, but can spent as they see fit.
I'm sure some of them felt some amount of regret in the last, terrifying moments between when they realized that they were going to die and when they finally lost consciousness.
Notes on 'Everything is fucked' (in science)
Unchecked presidential power can do literally anything to you, without recourse.

Unchecked power of an ISP can do literally anything to your internet service, and only as long as you stay with that ISP. Unchecked and abused power of an ISP also leads to other ISPs competing on "not doing the X harmful thing that Y ISP does", meaning that in the aggregate the harmful ISP loses business anyway.
I live in WA state and really just get to WFH when I want to. Many of my team members are full time remote though and there are many wonderful things about WA.

Seattle (where I live) is pretty expensive now.

But living on one of the islands (Bainbridge, Vashon, etc.) could be wonderful (better cost of living, access to beautiful nature, good schools, small community vibe).

Bellingham is lovely and has a university in town and also in a really beautiful part of Washington with access to lakes, Puget Sound, mountains, and so on. It's also right by I5 and Canada is not far away.

If you noticed the running theme is if you love nature, water, and mountains and want to share that with your kids consider WA.

WA state doesn't have state income tax for now, and I've loved the 10 years I've spent here.

Oh yeah, and I guess Portland, OR is cool too. Also pretty, and a happy new more low key than Seattle.
So the tweet makes it sound like someone seized control but the email just makes it sound like this guy was just fired. I'm pretty confused
It would be very cool to learn that Van Gogh did this on purpose (though that seems unlikely).

From the article: "Van Gogh, as did his contemporaries, used several pigments that discolour over time"

I wonder if the artists were aware that this would happen but had no alternatives?
Depending on which banks. Some banks like Citibank and Capital One are known to target the subprime market. They expect to earn more from interest than from interchange fees. Others, like American Express are the opposite. See here for a table: https://www.reddit.com/r/churning/comments/5oucdq/the_econom...

> I don't think there's any card that offers more than 1.5% cash back on everything

Not quite true. For example the Citi Double Cash is a card that earns essentially 2% cash back.

> And most fees are at least 2%

Also not true. It depends on your card category (MasterCard World, MasterCard Elite, Visa Signature, Visa Infinite, etc) and purchase category. This is just the interchange fee, but even including other types of fees, a basic no-frills card can easily cost the vendor <2% in total fees.

See all the MasterCard interchange rates (Visa is similar): https://www.mastercard.us/content/dam/mccom/en-us/documents/...
Don't they have clear windows?
My SO and I do something similar. When it (almost never) gets contentious, one of us will just yell: "I Declare Disagreement!" in the same manner that Michael Scott declared bankruptcy on The Office.

Instantly breaks up the tension and we can take a breather before resuming more rationally.
By buying fish obtained this way, the consumers in the second paragraph economically empower the perpetrators of the first paragraph to continue, allegedly because of food demand created by overpopulation.

Not endorsing the argument, but there is a connection.
And there have been entire art movements based on ignorance of the artists' intentions, like the stately white statues of neoclassicism, in imitation of statues that were originally painted.

Art restoration is art too, as is film restoration. You just have to hope that the people making the choices are good enough artists to keep the spirit of the original work, and give you something closer to what the artist intended.
That's why it's called "CentOS" and not "Free Red Hat Enterprise Linux"...
You don't need a degree here.

It's not amusing in a bad way, it's not ridiculous. I mean to say that it's highly surprising and counterintuitive, like a punchline in a joke. Most theories about REM are focused on brain function, as is almost all research on it. Chaperone production, though, is a basic housekeeping routine. Saying "well, REM isn't about episodic memory consolidation or dreaming or wherever you might think, it's an epiphenomenon of a very low-level mechanism that prevents boiling alive" is almost as unorthodox as claiming that learning to code is about forearms' dexterity.
> The Democrats have publicly embraced net neutrality, but have done nothing to ensure it. Even in 2016, the Democrats official stated position was to do nothing

I don't know where the "Democrat's official stated position" comes from, but I have a pretty good idea as to why Democrats weren't talking often about NN in 2016: Wheeler's FCC solved the problem. The ninth circuit upheld the 2015 rules. That's not nothing.
This article exists with the value judgement that being not miserable is some kind of boon or "positive" or "good thing". Anything that starts with that kind of implied value judgement w/o anything substantive can be disregarded.

Edit to add: Seriously though, a healthy amount of cynicism is required for critical thinking. If you try too hard to be something, whether that's happy or positive or whatever, you're depriving yourself from thinking of everything that might comprise a reality, and thus looking at just half of it. But yeah, too much of anything is bad.

[Also, I get sarcasm, you should too, hopefully].
I figured it was only a matter of time. It's absurd to think you can run a company with a product like this, with only one full-time developer. RIP folks who bought devices from them, who will not longer be receiving updates.
Are we forgetting about the actual founder of the faith.

Either he was a crazy old coot and we can safely say that present company has moved past his behavior in which case its hard to credit a religion solely based on his revelations or he was a true prophet and we ought to analyze their nature of the organization based on his words and deeds rather than just present lukewarm implementations.

Look up blood atonement whereby killing sinners presumably including heretics was the proscribed solution.
This doesn’t seem that surprising, most of these companies are “failures” - seems to stand to reason that many of these founders would cast some blame on the VCs (perhaps for not continuing to support the business when it was clear that it was not working).

Also not surprising is the that VCs overestimate their value.

Lastly founders probably have a much more diverse (and perhaps incorrect view - probably fostered by the VCs) of actual value add of VCs.

While there's a correlation between objective hardship and subjective misery, it's not perfect. Some people have happy temperaments even when times are tough, and some people are miserable even when times are good.
I feel like this article offers a lot of good points and factors to be aware of when sad, but it doesn't really point at ways to change. Anyone want to help compile a list of actionables or things to consider that you've personally found helpful?

I'll start:

> 2. Practice sustained boredom.

I find that a pretty decent solution to being bored is to do something that I've been trying to avoid for a while, like running an errand or trying to learn something very technical. I find that feeling reluctant/frustrated often ends up being better than feeling like there's nothing to do, and usually doing this comes with a pretty handsome feel-good when you finally finish that errand or figure out what the darned textbook is trying to say.

it was exemplified in a movie with Clive Owen, father of an abused teen. The social drama ended up rubbing the wound open way longer than the victim wanted to.
I don't get that impression from the stoics, this sudden 'hmmmph?' clarity that's almost amused at how silly oneself was being.

What I do get is that you can fear the worst and live in that fear to the point that it almost feels like you are experiencing what you fear every moment you are not experiencing it. And it either happens or it doesn't. And if it does, well, I don't know.

Someone or something fucked up somewhere, but I'm certainly not going to blame myself as though I am lord and master of all events that come to pass, seer of all future events and protector of all ills. Humans share that burden equally, and some feel it more than others. But I think like the stoics, like Zen, you can cultivate a sort of inner strength from that suffering.

That doesn't mean pursue suffering to be strong, no no no, not at all. It means you work with what you have. You have pain, use it. Use it to make someone else's life better. You have joy, enjoy it.

I'm not sure it's the right philosophy, or way of being, but it's the most clear and present thing I can muster when I feel my feelings. And I think stoicism reflects that. Deep sadness, old wounds, aching pains. Don't use it against yourself to worsen the hurt. If all you can be is neutral, be neutral. If all you can be is Zen, be Zen. If you can be happy, be happy. Don't take some old dead Greek dude's word for how to live your whole life. There are plenty of other Greek philosophers who spoke of happiness, to learn from too.
Yeah, agreed. "Just stop thinking like that" is terrible advice for someone suffering depression (or etc). Especially with the added spice of "and also you're a jerk."

I do think there's a good point here that these patterns are self-reinforcing, and that there can be a kind of counterintuitive pleasure in really getting down into the muck and living there. See also Notes from Underground. But the snide and aggressive tone here is really bizarre.

Absolutely focus on the problems you've solved, and also the problems you failed to solve after getting deeply involved in them.

They know that you'll have to learn their proprietary technology stacks, which are always both ahead and behind the public stacks they inspired. At some companies they won't ask anything about your resume keywords after the phone screens.

Most Big 5 companies use what's called "Behavioral Interviewing" or "S.T.A.R." to formally assess how you get stuff done, and the technical questions can be answered in almost any language you like. Hell I've given successful answers to Big 5 "tell me about a time when you had to…" questions based on experiences in bicycle manufacturing and nonprofit administration, but it really has to involve ownership if you're straying from the norms.
Moving on is crucial. However, what I find troubling about that formulation that it appears to deny the victim's experience. Can't we pause, acknowledge the negative, and then move on?
They do through peering agreements.
C. S. Lewis defined Joy as a desire-perhaps, if not probsbly unfulfilled-that is itself more desirable than any other satisfaction.

YMMV, but I think this is an accurate and essential insight. Maybe it's pertinent to your story, maybe not. At the same time, I suspect much of our internal suffering hinges on the fact.
One giant risk is spending your formative career and life years being subject to the psychologies of young under developed founder(s), artificially granted empowerment to hire and manage employees by VC speculation.

This inexperience is a helpful pre-rec for ideating concepts and building innovative products that create massive value for the markets, but it's a crap shoot with low odds for being an effective manager: These are not people who rose through the ranks in management by demonstrating finesse in motivating groups of people into effectiveness. These types of people don't come into the company until Series B, C if ever.

Furthermore, founders are typically in hiring mode after they have secured financing - which means you only get to know them while they are not under as much pressure. Dealing with founders while they are under the additional pressure of fundraising is when the more vivid colors of personality (and harsher interactions) come out.
this is not pedantic if it's the definition of a mid life crisis (I don't know), but just wrong if people worry about different things :-)
The reason this list is so relatable is because all of these behaviors are things normal, healthy people do. It's just a matter of degree, which is true of just about any behavior. If you take anything too far it will make you miserable.

It's possible to reframe every single one of these behaviors in a positive light.

I find it quite amusing that it is normal to find non-junior engineers getting paid 40K / year here in japan.
Seems like it's more likely home prices are the key factor, not home values. Subtle but important difference I'd say. If you can't afford a place to live, you probably can't afford to have children.
Hopefully that's not the only reason. Even absent of help from a friend, you likely wouldn't be there for long.

You made the following claim:

> There are only a handful of companies that pay $400k/yr for senior software engineers and MSFT ain't one of them

This claim is false.

There are a lot more than "a handful" of companies paying $400k for senior engineers. MSFT will also pay you this amount in the Bay.

Overall, top tech pay about the same. You say FB pays better than MS in Seattle, and perhaps that is the case (as I stated above, I'm mostly familiar with the Bay, not so much with Seattle). In the Bay, the pay is very similar. There could be many reasons why FB would pay more than MSFT in the Seattle: for example, MSFT has a huge office there, and FB probably only a small one. So it's a pretty wise strategy for FB to offer larger pay for the small amount of positions they have there, and in this manner poach some of the best talent in Seattle, while for MSFT it would be prohibitively expensive to raise salaries across the board at Redmond.

That still doesn't change the big picture, which is that top tech pay is largely equivalent, outside of a few anomalies here and there.
John didn't invent REST (nor AJAX), however jQuery made it feasible and easy for people to use.

Yes, you're right, the best jQuery would be no jQuery. jQuery was basically a prototype for the next generation of browser features.
With the rapid destruction of soon-to-be-depleted resources and worsening climate change I argue that "Baby Recovery" is a very misleading titling of birth rate decline; the next generation will likely have a better quality of life if there are _fewer_ of them, not more.
You're assuming that VCs can evaluate the prospects of a company better than potential employees. The reverse is often true, especially for startups where the main risks are technical.
Lol! I was interviewed about it by a Dutch TV team a few weeks ago and I had no idea what they were talking about! I got it in the mail last week, a little brochure called "What do to if war or crisis comes." I threw it in the trash and refused to take it seriously.
I don't know about that. I refuse to live in the Bay area and have no desire to live and work for one of the "big players".

Yeah, I'm pretty sure humans never really struggled with the idea of Nothing or None. From what I can tell, the "discovery of zero" refers to treating it philosophically as a number, developing a specific symbol for it, and using that symbol in positional number systems, which are all things that bees likely do not do.

The sensitivity of the data or threat risk of the host from these open ports is up for debate and probably should be reverse engineered in any which case.

Could these services be secured by another method that we've missed?

It's undoubtedly bad practice. But surely M$ haven't just left two non-standard HTTP ports open to the internet from all hosted Azure instances?

You shouldn't have to manually reason about escape analysis. As compiler optimizations of 6g/8g evolve, your ability to reason about it will probably dramatically decrease, due to the effects of inlining, SROA, GVN, LICM, etc. etc. That's why ultimately there's no escaping the need for generational GC.

I think this is the dillema they try to deal with in 13 reasons why season 2. Jessica, who is sexually abused, alternates between identifying herself as the victim and confronting her abuse and moving on, not letting it identify her. While the show was not as good as season 1, I think they tried to capture all aspects of how a victim could potentially feel and that was a good public service.
Hate to complain about GraphQL in general and not specifically this guide but I ran into to major issues with it and really wanted to like it but ultimately gave up on it until they fix some core issues.

I don't see how I can implement complex object hierarchies that are not rigid. Only list is supported as an unbounded data type and for some reason there is no unbounded map/dictionary data type even with simple restrictions like requiring string key type. There is not even good advice on what key/value pair naming convention should be for all languages. The other is that there is very poor support for more general include/exclude/where filters. The idea being arbitrary complex join/filter clauses to function like sql statement with multiple joins and where clauses. Have to rely on implementation specific conventions like what sequelize does to get that but not for arbitrary object graphs. Solve some of this and it might actually become as powerful as it is frequently claimed to be.
