"Fuck motivation. it’s a fickle and and unreliable little dickfuck and isn’t worth your time.

"Better to cultivate discipline than to rely on motivation. force yourself to do things. force yourself to get up out of bed and practice. Force yourself to work. Motivation is fleeting and it’s easy to rely on because it requires no concentrated effort to get. Motivation comes to you, and you don’t have to chase after it."

"Discipline is reliable, motivation is fleeting. The question isn’t how to keep yourself motivated. It’s how to train yourself to work without it."

I think they've made quite the impact on the South African dev market to get to the front page here.
A CVS lifesaver that you can put into your shell init file:

export CVS_RSH=ssh

This defaults to rsh and figuring out that I had to set it like this took me a shameful amount of time (mostly because it produces such and unhelpful error message). I literally couldn't pull the OpenBSD src tree for months...

I'm one of the few people who deliberately learned and used CVS (for a while) in recent times. I did not have any public repositories at the time and needed VCS for my configuration and some documents (Org mode mostly), and the model where I could have a central repository on a local directory which I could easily back up was compelling. Then I figured out a filesystem layout where I could back up all my work easily and this became useless, thus I switched to Mercurial. Nowadays I'm considering going just git, because it's what everybody uses, and Magit is a compelling piece of software.

I use RCS regularly along with Mercurial and Git nowadays. RCS is good for e.g. when I have a tree where most of the content is pdf files (papers), images, and other binary data that does not really need to be version controlled, together with an Org mode files for notes. I also have a pool of Elisp files which contain the personal bits of my Emacs configuration, and I use RCS on them because their histories are not related to one another. It's no good for projects anymore because it is essentialy a tool used when people used a single computer to develop software to which they connected w/ terminals, so they were all users of the same machine and the code was always in a determined location.

One thing people tend to confuse with CVS or SVN is that they think it's a client/server model whereas it's actually a repo/checkout model. The repo is central and can totally reside in a local tree, and checkins from different checkouts go directly to that repo. This is akin to sharing one .git tree between all your checkouts of a single repository.

It binds to mu opioid receptors and the compounds are largely unstudied. So while maybe not technically an opioid, that doesn't magically mean it's good to go.

> I believe that many in the field are overpaid relative to the difficulty of the work they do.

I believe that every programmer is overpaid relative to the difficulty of the work they do -- or, more accurately, that The Market doesn't pay based on difficulty of work. Software pays so well because the product scales so well.

Successful pop musicians don't do work that's 100 times more 'difficult' than software engineering. They do work that scales even better (copying digital music; playing to arenas; branding on merch).

Having worked outside the software world, I absolutely do not believe that software people are any smarter, on average, than anyone else. Ever see a plumbing or electrical or structural system fail spectacularly? Other types of workers absolutely need to understand interactions between multiple complex systems, deal with obsolete and incompatible systems, and deal with changing and conflicting requirements and regulations.

If software is any more complex to deal with than physical systems, it's only because the architects and implementors let it get that way.
Reminds me of Scott Adams, System vs Passion.
You can export to all these formats, but what if they edit the DOC file and send it back to you? How do you bring those changes back to org? Will pandoc preserve your converted org mode file structure?

The registrars have an interest in not delivering requests for sale or even abuse reports, because it's likely that they will result in the domain either being decommissioned or moved to another registrar.
The code in question can be mostly boiled down to:

outline: inset 100px green;
outline-offset: -125px;

The issue is:

- spec is deliberately liberal about how outline should look (this is kind of a similar case to forms and scrollbars, the styling of which varies not just by browser, but by OS/toolkit)

- inset is a keyword rarely if ever applied to outlines (and I'm not sure why it's even valid or what it's purpose would be)

- outline-offset is a useful property, with well defined behaviour in most cases: inset outlines are the exception where its behaviour is ill-defined

Edge's behaviour is probably technically "closest" to what I would expect, but I'm not sure if "correct" is the right term. It's an odd case, and what it should look like is debatable. IE's and Safari's could be "correct" either, and in fact IE's kind of looks truest to the intent of outlines as a thing.

Chrome is doing very bizarre things and I can't really fathom why. They look like rendering bugs.

Edited after a 2nd look, IE's and Safari's make a bit more sense after some consideration.
Motivation is absolutely a skill that can be mastered. Being motivated to get up and run at 6:00 am is not telling yourself that you have to, it’s learning how to want to do it. Same thing with anything else. You have to learn how to connect the desire for some end state (getting the project completed, getting a faster mile time, etc) with the present. Habits are great, but excercising the capacity to want to make shit happen outside of your normal routine is also a skill worth developing.
I think you just demonstrated why this new approach will take off (if it can actually predict drive).

For example, I get wrapped up in the challenges at work and I find I’ll take them home, reflect on them, read about the problem space. Not that I necessarily want to, it’s just my nature to focus like that.

So, given an opportunity to hire a personality type most employers would prefer the work obsessed mindset like mine. Even if over the long term it would lead to higher burnout rates (eg. Short term productivity vs long term).

Note. I’m not suggesting my mentality is better. In fact I truly believe yours is healthier for the individual. But that’s not what employers are selecting for when hiring.
Buy a 100 pack, then they are only $9.05 each, which while still more expensive than the ESP8266s (at ~$7.00) is getting closer. The devices from CrowdSupply all ship with nice injection moulded cases.

You are also quite welcome (and encouraged) to build your own!

The schematics, PCB and even case design are open source. The board is designed with 6mil/6mil design rules making it compatible with everything like OHS Park, Seeed, or Dirty PCBs (all of them have been previously tested). The Tomu being so small with the Dirty PCB protopack would get you like ~75-125 boards for like ~$25 USD. All the other parts are available from Digikey too.

The idea is to be an open source, cheap and hackable replacement for an Yubikey Nano style devices (and hopefully in response they will price their devices more reasonably than the >$50 USD it costs now).

It would be awesome for Chinese manufacturers to take the design as is and make cheaper clones.

We have a policy of sending anyone who sends the project pull requests free Tomu boards.
It's clear by reading comments who here has children and who does not. If work is more fun to you than spending time with your children then there's something wrong. When I see comments like "I can't imagine anything more fun than work" I tend to think about my personal reflection upon my own standing in life in relation to work, which is "if I didn't have to work, I would spend all of my time being the best dad that I can be". Lucky for me I am home all day so I count my blessings already. I work so I can have a more comfortable home for myself and my family. Sure, sometimes - a lot of times that work is fun and addicting but nothing compares to the joy of being around my son.
I'm all for innovating on hiring practices. Resumes and interviews aren't ideal. But, as with everything else, the details of how new ideas are implemented are what matters. Their examples of questions are certainly not applicable to all organizations, so it makes me wonder where they came from: If a hiring manager picked their own questions, it will codify the process with that manager's bias. But if it really did come from an working "AI" process that pulled common traits from the top talent in an organization, it sounds like a plausible process. But before I jumped into it, I'd need to know many more details. I also wonder about the claim that matching candidates to existing staff will promote diversity on anything but the surface levels of gender and ethnicity.

(EDIT: After a bit more thought, it is OK if only surface level diversity is achieved.. that is better than being unfair to some demographics... I just hope for more when hiring.)

Airlines switching dropdowns to “Taiwan, China” – US carriers hold out
In this article (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3670991/) there is a dude who was pretty heavily addicted to opiods and used Kratom to manage his withdrawal symptoms when trying to quit. Unfortunately he went a bit overboard and had a seizure. So he abused Kratom a lot and also opiods. After that he understandable quit the Kratom and had minor withdrawals.

My takeaway here was that quiting Kratom is not like quiting opiods, and Kratom could be useful in allowing people to quit opiods more easily.

I certainly think it's worth studying more, and to do that you don't want to ban it.
Org mode can natively export to all that formats, and more. The end result is always better than pandoc's, and it lends itself better to the customisation of the process and hooking in your own functions to further modify it.

>This article makes in seem like ancient history, but there are still projects around that use CVS or very similar VCS like for example ClearCase.

Don't remind me. I worked for a group in a top tech company that used cvs until 2014 and were very resistant to switching. They finally switched due to a department mandate to stop using cvs (they were not the only team in the department using cvs).
You've got no evidence and your logic regarding sample sizes is unsound.

10% is a huge sample size for any survey. Look at how it's calculated - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

or just plug in your numbers here - https://www.checkmarket.com/sample-size-calculator/

I'm not defending the idiotic system that is US healthcare, but you can opt in to COBRA until you find something else. 2 main disadvantages are that it is time bound (i think max 12 months) and it is expensive, you have to pay both the employer contribution and your own.
> If Kratom addicts start robbing convenience stores and offering blowies for Kratom cash i'll believe it

This has very little to do with the properties of a drug itself, and more to do with the demographics (poverty, unemployment, overall disenfranchisement, environmental factors like urban density and access to services) of people who use other drugs; specically, that usage of these substances often correlates with such disenfranchisement.

In other words, the people currently using Kratom may not be the same people using other drugs, and their circumstances may be different.

(Not a comment on Kratom, which I don't know much about, besides its popularity in some websites)
This don't make no sense. You still got to be motivated to do the routine that has supposedly removed motivation.
Don't books have 2 columns for each spread of pages? You still have the potential for there to be uneven columns.
The complexity, reliability, and user-friendliness (or technician-friendliness) of the kinds of software components you need to plug together to make a software solution are more like that of a space shuttle or fighter jet than, say, a car, let alone a plumbing fixture.

The glamour (and risk to life and limb) of doing so is that of plumbing.
What would version control look like after Git ?

Git famously was not built for monorepo [1]

I would like to see sub-tree checkouts, sub-tree history, storing giant asset files in repo ( without the git-lfs hack ), more consistent commands, some sort of API where compilers and build systems can integrate into revision control etc

How is your “safety” being harmed. Really. What is the actual harm from gaug.es? Have you ever used it?

Share the story please of a single person, anywhere at any time that suffered a harm because of gaug.es.

We throw terms like “safety” around so much that they lose their meaning. There are sites (especially news orgs) that do harmful things when it comes to tracking, retargeting and such. But some little site that wants some basic analytics? Come now. That’s comparing a lemonade stand with a Tesco.
I have no problem with the former but they do have incentive for the later as not delivering the abuse reports will lead to the domain being decommissioned because it's on every spam and blacklist ever.

WHOIS Privacy Services have been doing exactly this for a long time and they are usually paid by the domain registrar.

I think that problem is more imagined since there doesn't seem to be this problem in the real world.
C has a much bigger baggage. I assume a big chunk of C is modern version of compilers is fairly gotcha free. But even the core basic part of Web is full of gotcha. Just the fact that you need to start with a normalize.css is reason enough. And as they fix compatibility in 1 things, they seem to add 10 more.

Maybe I'm wrong and clueless. But web seems to be a bastion for adding overly complex solutions while failing at trivial things often enough not always. I agree it is probably still the cheapest way to get a cross platform GUI at least maintenance wise. But it is a pile of electricity sucking horrendous crap regardless or at least a big part of it. More frustratingly I'm not sure that it has to be the case.

The best thing with Org mode literate programming is that you can easily mix and match code in multiple languages and make these communicate, and then render the result as part of the document w/o any hassles.

"Just Plumbing" is not really an apt analogy.

Because, judging from all the people I've been working with throughout the years, it's amazingly difficult to write a clean, cohesive, maintainable, scalable CRUD app that will actually satisfy your customers' demands.

Making things that work is easy. Making things that work well, that's another story. And it's the reason why there's so many open spots and high salaries for senior web devs who can deliver.
From the article; it's a 40-hour week plus 12 hours of overtime, so under your model, 5 straight 9-hour days is not considered overtime, and anything more is.
This is a great point and I appreciate you pointing it out. Cross platform development is hard regardless of which part of the stack you're developing for. The reason development for the browser stands out for me is that when I build a web app I can control to a certain extent what environment the server is deployed in and then I don't have to worry too much about different platforms. However I have no control over which browser my user chooses to use and that can have a serious impact on their experience. An impact that I have to account for.
Have you tried making that happen? I don't know your work situation but maybe it's worth a shot giving it a try.
SourceSafe also allowed you to checkout files in non-exclusive mode which made it more like CVS. It also had a way to share files across different directories, a feature we emulated in CVS by symlinking files in the CVS_ROOT.

Also, fun fact: SourceSafe was the first cross platform VCS I used. There were Mac, Unix, and dos/windows versions. Then Microsoft bought it and axed everything except dos/windows. :-(

Yeah. And even then, that would have to be a result of both addiction and the state drug war. Without the latter, the stuff is extremely affordable. I was curious if it would help with anxiety so I ordered about $8 of it, which was about 2 sandwich bags stuffed full of it! It made me feel physically nauscious for the entire morning and I took a very small amount. But I don’t think I would have been impaired driving. Drivers on opioids frighten the crap out of me.
That I find hard to believe. Maybe the average Internet user is clueless about that. But the average ProtonMail user?

I was shocked when I saw that. It's a total disconnect. Why not Bitcoin? All decent VPN services accept Bitcoin. ScryptMail accepts Bitcoin. Even VFEmail does.

Even worse, if you create a ProtonMail account via Tor, you can't use even the free tier unless you provide card and number numbers. That's worse than even Facebook!
It actually turns out the bird is a female, but thirty years of saying "he" is a hard habit to break. I was told from a pet store owner you could do a DNA analysis of the poop to determine gender. Also he incorrectly told me male birds could lay eggs if they didn't have a mate. I was 8 so I believed it.
It's plainly obvious that it fosters dependence in some users, just like other opiates. It's no surprise that someone who develops a fentanyl addiction will also develop a kratom addiction.

It would still be sad to see it relegated to sch. I since it seems to have a very good safety profile. Certainly I'd rather people drink kratom in grapefruit juice, and lead functional lives (most of them anyways) than shoot fentanyl.
