Feelings are such a tricky thing.

I was raised to suppress them. Or, well, not even that. Feelings were so thoroughly suppressed in my family, that they never even featured. I must have learned that any expression of emotion gets me nowhere by the age of 0.5

In my 20s, throughout various failed relationships I began to re-examine what feelings are. Why did people (and, anecdotally, women) have so many feelings, of such strength and seemingly of such unpredictability?

It wasn't long until I decided to get therapy. To see what's lurking beneath.

Lo and behold, there were some feelings there. Lots of them surprisingly strong, yet hesitant to surface. It was a bizarre dichotomy to have to deal with. One that affects me to this day. It's like the stronger a feeling within me, the further it is hidden away, leading to this cat and mouse game of 'who am I?'.

Feelings offer a surprisingly absolute way to perceive the world. They are always there and they are always exactly what they are. So long as you allow yourself to feel them.

For the last decade I have been doing nothing but trying to feel more and more. This is still a lot less than most people. At the same time it makes me feel much more 'at home' in the world, it has made me able to connect with people better, it has reduced my stress and anxiety.

It has also lead to some other curious changes within me. I am feeling myself become more and more incompatible with the 'business world'. I know that's a very vague term, but I have found corporate culture and the striving for endless profits, no matter what the human cost, to be incredibly despiccable. Nauseating, icky. Misguided.

I wonder whether feelings and emotions provide a certain common ground for what a human being 'should be' or 'wants to be', which runs counter to capitalist incentive. After all, you want a herd of obedient workers, not uppity individuals causing trouble with their free spirited antics.

I should add that I am of German heritage and I feel there is an entire generation of people who have lived through historical events enabled almost entirely by the suppression and eradication of all feelings (apart from, ironically, hate and fear).
How do those sour grapes taste?
T2 and SSD can be intact and other stuff in the motherboard may be fried. Would target mode work in that case?
Do something else.
if I need to write my own tool, than I probably don't need to pay EE for csv exports, since your api can export issue's as well.
Given that I asked for them, they taste delicious.
To clarify my comment, the trigger of the issue here is a motherboard failure, and data loss is cascading from there.

Sure Apple makes decision that can affect the outcome in this specific case, but other things happen to laptops (physical damage, loss, direct disk failure etc.).

I would blame a pro user with valuable info for not backing/replicating it in case the laptop dies. Actually I am not even sure the laptop could go to repair with the data still salvageable in companies with strict security protocols.
NeXT bought Apple for negative $400M
The problem is wasted potential. Why stop at some arbitrary capacity that may very well change with time? Better to cover the entire roof with solar panels. Use as much as needed and sell the excess energy. Why should people have to deal with energy storage? Let the power companies worry about that. The power grid can act as a backup.

The utilities foresaw this and didn't make net metering available to me. I presume my business model threatens the utilities somehow. They invented a kWh credit system to "pay" people with, and these credits expire every year if unused. Under these conditions, it'd be stupid to produce excess energy since I'd get nothing for it. Even if I were to somehow match production with consumption, I'd still have to pay them for the infrastructure.
Well, according to the linked post to Phoronix, the POWER9 architecture is not produced for OEM PC market requirements so it doesn't have do oblige Hollywood non-negotiable DRM requirements.

Did I understood right? Until now I thought the only option was using pre 2008 Intel (and same era AMD?) CPUs or some Atom models...
Luckily Apple has loads of experience with hardware encryption of iPhones and it seems like they land pretty damn well with users. Almost no one knew previous models had this recovery feature and almost no one will actually care that the new ones don't. Make a backup of data you want to keep in case of hardware failure, don't rely on any magic from a vendor.
This is why everything in the Mac and iOS SDK is prefixed with NS - think it stands for NeXT Step?
Hardware fails, that's just a fact of life and an inevitable consequence of the second law of thermodynamics. All the comment you are replying to is saying is that pros should know this and back up their data - preferably using multiple methods. I'd argue everyone should do this. Personally I use Time Machine and Backblaze, plus all my most important stuff is in Dropbox.
I guess?

Neither of those things are dead though (news is struggling with the adblocking apocalypse, but that's a different category of problem). I kind of get what you're saying, and I agree that Facebook and Google are powerful, and that we should look for ways to distribute that power more evenly.

But at the same time, to me those scenarios kind of look like distributed architectures doing the jobs they're supposed to. I mean, Google Reader's shutdown hurt bloggers less than Live Journal's did, right?

Another way of looking at it: think about what happened when Microsoft bought Github. A bunch of people panicked, but for the most part, it was fine - because Git repos are decentralized. And a bunch of people came out with hot takes that said, "Git's not really decentralized, because Github is the part that matters."

But... no, for the most part it's decentralized, and we saw the benefits of that architecture.

If you have a decentralized core you might interface with or feed off of a few centralized services, but you will be more resilient and better equipped to deal with their failures. You don't have to be perfect to reap most of those benefits.

If iTunes stopped distributing podcasts, that market would suffer. But I'd still be able to directly share episodes on Twitter and Reddit, and there are at least 2 other preloaded sources on my listening app that could be serving the same purpose within a day with zero change to the way I find new podcasts or download them. The big change for people like me would be that when searching, I would click the second button on a list of sources instead of the first one. It would definitely hurt the health of the network (mostly just for iPhone users), and you can make an argument that it would disproportionately hurt the health of the network, but it probably wouldn't kill it.

But suppose Apple or Google stopped distributing an app store. That market would instantly die, for basically everyone, and no one would be able to do anything to save it.
Intel's latest CPU innovation, the i9 "Industrial Cooling Required" Edition with 28 cores, would come close to a nuclear reactor and does manage to replicate the heat output usually experienced during atmospheric reentry from orbit.

I doubt it comes close to the surface of the average star but certainly close to some of the cooler red dwarf stars and probably most brown dwarf stars.
If I remember correctly by default a repository on GitHub with no licence means you have the full copyright. People can clone it and if you have a CLA you could accept changes, but they cannot really do anything with it. So perhaps just showing the code and not putting any open source license could work in this case?
I think they talk about it in "Why we sleep" by Matthew Walker, PhD.

Mostly about some people are biologically programmed to be night owl and other early bird.

The best sleep is not about what at what time you sleep but more if you follow what your biological cycle is telling you.

I studied electronic systems engineering, but most of my work experience has been in software.

I'm most passionate about control systems/automation, network admin, and circuit design. But I've done a wide variety of other projects (big data, web apps, device drivers, tech support and repairs for friends). I'm not good at art or marketing, so front-end design isn't for me. I'll consider pretty much anything else though.
Ecuador Is Reportedly Getting Ready to Turn Assange Over to U.K. Authorities

My general feeling is that front end developers are paid less than DevOps (which is what we call sysadmins these days, after all the 'pasting stuff from a Word doc into Solaris' people became managers at banks and the people who could actually automate shit took over). DevOps and back end engineers are paid about the same.

Frontend: 300-400ish GBP/day in London

Backend / DevOps: 600 GBP/day in London

Weird thing is, when I did backend the first time round, I had no idea of event loops and async (asides frm some theoretical knowledge since nginx uses them). I found frontend FAR more complex as a result.
> I've sometimes thought that it might be nice in an abstract sense to have kids. I'm sure there are some nice moments. But in practice whenever I see my friends with kids, they look so beleaguered and complain about never having time. I just think: Who needs it?

Well, not everyone necessarily needs or enjoys having kids. Then again, if you catch many startup founders while they're building a company, they'll similarly complain about never having free time and will look similarly beleaguered. That doesn't mean it's not worth starting a startup - just that there are downsides as well as upsides. And obviously it's not for everyone.

You might only be seeing the downsides of people with kids, and missing the upsides; Partially because the upsides come at a later age (just from my read on things, not personal experience yet); Partially because a lot of the upsides are less visible in public (tender moments with loved ones tend to be in private).
> because of how implicit most everything is in mathematics.

Which is a completely wrong impression due to how it is taught in school and to undergrads in the US.

Speaking as a mathematician, since one is reasoning about abstract objects everything necessarily is pedantically explicit (otherwise proofs could not possibly work). Hence, in US graduate courses or EU undergrad courses you start from scratch and rigorously define every symbol you ever write and justify every step you take (e.g. given a field, why is "1" distinct from "0"? What is a derivative? Prove that it is actually well-defined, exists for such functions etc.).

What many people confuse for being implicit is the heavy polymorphism and terseness in mathematical notation. For instance, one often identifies a function, its graph or its image depending on type makes sense in context. Here, rigorous courses spent much time to prove that any possible ambiguity in notation is actually no ambiguity at all; one is allowed to use short-hand notation because all interpretations are equivalent.
Perfect storm makes it sound like there was any randomness involved in Venezuela's downfall. However it was predictable from the start. It's been known for a long time that socialism always leads to extreme poverty. As we say in Russia, don't step on the same garden rake twice and expect a different result.

It's quite possible that the partnership has truly outlived its usefulness to either party.
They get nothing whatsoever. "Getting it" would at the very least mean checking the open bug trackers for existing issues, which there are, in all three (closed WONTFIX for Firefox and never even triaged for Webkit, Chromium's activity doesn't seem to go beyond triaging — all the issue having been created circa 2014~2015).

"Getting it" is not creating worthless busywork for maintainers by spamming their bug trackers with pointless issues — unless you're reporting to the black hole that is Apple's RADAR — it might be actually deciding to take on the issue, getting a hold of the relevant stakeholders and asking if and what it would take for this to be merged if you implemented it, and being ready to be told "no" and "nothing because it won't be".

Yep, it's invaluable if your sales guy actually knows a little bit about the technology, even if they can't implement much themselves.
Referral or Partner Program is one of the options of the passive income. In most cases, you get a share from a commision that a person you've referred a product/service to has paid. One of the examples is https://www.crazycall.com/partners?source=news.ycombinator. Your could also do blogging or create youtube videos.
And not only them. Regular people are the same. If you are called to help with something, even move furniture, it's either all is smooth except one thing if the people are organized or it's more like "the car can't pull the trailer, the trailer is too small, the furniture breaks apart by itself and so on). All is bad.

Most people that need help are in the latter category. It's the same for jobs. Jobs that get posted online most likely are bad jobs.
Machine learning doesn't solve one problem, but thousands. It's like asking what problem does a knife solve - it can be used to cutting, stabbing, throwing, scaring, etc.

ML is used in the areas where there no known algorithms, or the algorithms are too slow or simply not good enough.

In more general terms, ML tries to provide hgh quality outputs for given inputs.
It is testing for people who can solve the below 5 percent of real problems under immense pressure. Even development crunch does not work like these tests.

The trouble is, the skillet to do so is not actually overlapping with the one needed for prolonged deep or repetitive work.
So you end up hiring either fresh heads from such pressuring environments, super geniuses (yeah right) or people who learned to pass and game these tests.

Progressive Web Apps are here. Now what?
Hey, this was really useful. Maybe you can help me (and many other potentially interested software engineers) by sharing another key missing piece: what are online places to lurk and gather initial information in this sector?

It is a bit difficult for most people to just know that they like working in some sector, or even to get in contact with the sector's community. Even more so, how to expect prospective software entrepreneurs to even get an idea to work on without contact and info. Of course, they can get out of their house, start going to industry meetings etc. but this requires lots of effort, money, and even moving to another city. Are there "energy HNs" to just follow for some time and try to get to know the business before a more serious involvement?
Your Time Is Your Product  – Track and Bill Accordingly
People tends to compare GitLab to Github, to me it seems more they compete with VSTS or Atlassian.

CI, project management (epics and roadmaps), monitoring...

Github introduces really few features but seems to make them right, or really limited, but never “bad”.

Gitlab on the opposite, works more with super-fast and open iterations, without hesitating to roll-back if it just doesn’t work.

It's worth checking out Peter Woit's homepage at http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/ and looking beyond the blog and his role as a string theory skeptic. He teaches a number of classes and has a book about quantum mechanics and representation theory that has gotten a lot of favorable reviews. Not sure I'd classify this guy as your average helpdesk guy ;)
In my limited experience, being a driven employee is quite literally that, in the sense that it’s someone else, the manager, who is doing the driving. Let me explain with an example.

At a previous job, I was at one time working on a large project under a enthusiastic, but hard driving project manager (he is a karate coach in his spare time). At the beginning of the project he pulled the entire team aside and held a pep talk, talking about how important this project was for the company, how hard he himself planned to work because of it, and finally how hard he expected us to work. He was upfront about the fact that there would be many days with very long hours, and he said the company was committed to doing what it would take to make it work for us: Paying taxis to get home from the client late at night, paying for meals and doing whatever to help those who had families with children (I don’t remember the specifics, as that didn’t apply to me at the time). Because of the personality of this project manager, it worked. He got us riled up, and for many weeks the whole team worked from early morning to late in the evening. At the end of the project, we received a small bonus and were commended in front of the rest of the company. During it all, the manager did what he had said he would: He worked as hard as any of us, staying each day until the last of us left, to the point where we worried about his ability to drive himself home safely.

In an environment such as this, I would expect many people who normally wouldn’t think they had it in them, would find that they also were able to perform to a level far higher than they were used to.
Java had lambdas since 8 (we're on 11 now?). They are a great addition to the language and streams (essentially FP) are amazing.

This is very interesting. I only just posted the following in another thread. I empathise with your experience greatly. I feel you articulated it very well:

"Just look at transistor amplifiers"

If you mean solid state transistors, yes musicians don't like them, but there is good reason - tube amps absolutely sound better than solid state, there's really no debate there. But they are a huge pain in the rear and if solid state sounded identical, musicians would have no problem. Also, they're not that new :).

But yes, a lot of musicians don't like new, which is funny :)

I think it’s just American propaganda to blame this on socialism. You had a politician with a miltary background who knew nothing about oil destroy an oil company. Norway is fairly socialist - distributing the gains of oil amongst it’s people, and it’s doing quite well.

What you had in Russia was statism not socialism - power and wealth were concentrated in the communist party rather than shared with the people.

Functional Programming in Kotlin with Sequences
Hardly a beginner at programming, but I also struggled with this when I picked up Python recently. The documentation doesn't make it obvious when functions have this sort of side effect, so like your students I play with the REPL to establish exactly what a function will do. Even then an unexpected side effect was the source of the single most perplexing bug in my program. I imagine that in complex programs this philosophy of sometimes-mutability-sometimes-not must lie at the root of a huge amount of programming error.
