If it's the journey, it's not perfectionism. Perfectionism is all about results; a person wants the results in their life to be perfect according to the means they define it as, which requires control. The moment you realize you cannot control things and can only enjoy the ride, you are no longer perfectionist. You're negate the actual thing and are calling it perfectionism when it's not, because perfectionism always has the elements of results and control, two things this "healthy" perfectionism cannot have.

Please don't define what you have as what it is. There are too many odd people who define what they are as on the spectrum and talk of bullshit like neurodiversity when people legitimately suffer and have serious negative consequences in their lives from it. Perfectionism ruins lives and warps relationships with people precisely because its not about striving while realizing you can't ultimately have it. That's just what normal people do, try and do the best they can while realizing a lot is out of their hands.
They fixed this with Windows 10, actually. Which of course, upset people because it defaults people to Edge, and asks people to give Edge a try when they change it.
If the public service of justice is slow and expensive, we need to fix the public service, not replace it with a free market simulacrum.

The argument is that the justice system is slow and expensive because it is overloaded with cases that don't really belong in the justice system in the first place. Which is not a radical idea; e.g. only some cases merit the attention of a district court, and fewer still merit the SCOTUS.

You can see the "overloading" perspective when you look at the asylum hearing backlog. The demand outstrips the judiciary's ability to run fair hearings practically to the point of absurdity.
Mark Zuckerberg: The Recode interview
Have they done anything with the flight model? Specifically, it essentially auto-piloting you away from a crash? Being unable to fly as low as I wanted is what frustrated me the most.
Google have left themselves open to this.

1. They should release a heavily locked-down version of Android, which manufacturers and carriers cannot modify - apart from basics like bundled apps, widgets and wallpapers (uninstallable). Update would come direct from Google, and hardware support would be limited to specific components.

2. Make all of Android closed source and shut down AOSP. What is the point of it anyway?

This would solve the fragmentation problem, and be better for consumers since they would get updates quicker and for a longer time. Paradoxically it would lead to less 'choice' for consumers.
I can fall asleep in the afternoon (3-7pm) but I usually decide to stay up later, so I don't wake up fully rested in the middle of the night. As a result, by the time I finally go to bed at a normal hour, I'm wide awake and can't sleep for ages.
I don't think it's the place of a pharmacist to diagnose people. But I do have a friend who's a pharmacist and they see doctors consistently poorly picking medicine for things they've diagnosed.

I get that the initial diagnosis is the biggest part. But there is a ton of domain knowledge in drug interactions, expiration, etc that doctors just don't deal with on a daily basis. It makes sense to separate the jobs so each individual can get the best at their role. I don't mean to undermine diagnosis that's a huge deal, but I'd love to see doctors focus on what they do best.
It’s apparently due to hysterical raisins. The NCP host-host protocol was simplex and required a pair of sockets. The convention for the return socket was to connect to a “port” one less than the receiving port. At least I think. See the connection establishment process described starting on page 7 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc33
English will still be the official language of two EU countries :)
I've been thinking this recently as well. Some problem spaces are definitely very amenable to being transformed into a purely declarative language like YAML but, while builds look like that at first glance, I find that turing-complete-code customization is required just a little too often for it to be worthwhile.

YAML is a way better way of doing it than the current jenkins way though.
And everybody has cancer because oncologists love treating patients and drug manufacturers love selling chemo drugs. If you start thinking that way, almost every profession can be seen under a negative light.
Hi, that's not true for me, 10y ago after months of thinking of the layout I'd stick with for decades I tweaked the Dvorak keyboard layout (switching the U and I) and went cold turkey. Qwerty is still in my muscle memory, I occasionally have to use it on other computers and I am slower with it.
I am much more comfortable typing in Dvorak, the typing is significantly more relaxed. I never did it for speed reasons as I figured speech to text might catch up in the future.
It is perfectly fine with Firefox, K9 Mail... Or Samsung Browser and Mail apps.

The Play Store is the one and only problem as the replacements are nowhere near close in functionality or popularity.
Off-topic from the OP article, I encourage anyone who knows a Romance language or two to read this. With a little knowledge of current events and a few choice neologisms (methano, Coreae, nuclearibus) it's astounding how much you can understand.

> (I'm tempted to contrast this with some of the DSLs I've seen in the likes of scala and ruby... I have a hypothesis that all of the hoops you have to jump through to make a macro like construct cause people to go all in when they do so.)

I don't think we have any points of contention left to argue over, but I will say that many Rubyists just aren't familiar enough with Ruby's object model and scoping to be able to do DSLs cleanly. It's certainly possible, but there's a learning curve.

Actually I can articulate how to do DSLs in a paragraph. Create a DSL class where all instance methods are DSL calls that set instance variables. The instantiator takes a block, the DSL input, and simply runs instance_exec on the block so it's executed in instance scope. Hand the DSL object with all the ivars to something else to actually do things with. Nothing in DSL behavior should do anything other than set ivars. The only metaprogramming is instance_exec.
I think more comparable with Nazism would be Stalinizm. It didn't last that long(although the horrors done to the Soviet people in that short time are unimaginable). Most of Soviet Union's history and the Cold War is relatively calm if I just subjectively compare to our times.
I'd be interested in people's views on the influence of sleep on aging. I've never been a great sleeper, possibly have sleep apnoea as well.
5 or 6 broken hours a night is normal for me and I feel that I am aging more quickly than average.
Can a neutrino going through a planet be compared to a spaceship going through space in terms of likelihood of colliding with something?
Agreed, but keep account recovery in mind.

Account recovery is a major pain point for any site that supports TOTP 2FA. If you're not using a TOTP application that supports cloud backup (like Authy), when you lose or replace your mobile device the existing TOTP tokens are useless as they can't be recovered. This results in some type of account recovery process to reintroduce the 2FA tokens. Often these recovery processes introduce additional security issues that are equivalent to not supporting 2FA at all, or they might require costly human intervention.

Don't get me started on SMS 2FA.
Maybe you have 15 apps at a given time, but you install 50 apps during the smartphone's lifetime.
Comments 1 and 2 sound like you have only experienced hobbyist-grade printers and not high quality, easy-to-use, professional tools. Engineers can waste time fiddling and there are many things that make sense to outsource during development, but try a Form 2 and see if you still feel this way.

3 is actually an excellent suggestion. It's important to communicate with production suppliers early and often. But outsourcing early stage prototypes to prototype shops usually doesn't help that much (unless your final production volume is low)

4 and 5 are not true for low cost systems if you have even a small amount of printing and value the speed of your development team.

6. Doing as much digitally/on paper as possible is also an excellent suggestion. Too many engineers rush to build stuff Simulation and other tools are constantly improving. But for full functional testing, ergonomics, industrial design, etc, there is still no substitute for physical prototypes.

Full disclosure: I work at Formlabs https://formlabs.com/ and our mission is basically to solve all of these problems.
I'm a long time user of command line. While it has its place and usage, I lately think: why not punch cards then? That would be a fine topic of the next craze.

Hi, yes we have an API service. We have had interest in an app, and do plan to release one, we are beta testing right now for IOS and Android.
One of the most important computer scientist is a wrong statement.

He is not a computer scientist. And he is different than one. He should be called crypyoecononomy architect.

Computer scientist requires a lot of more work in research and development, and at the same time he has done a lot more work that is outside of the computer scientist scope.
In the book he says he chose the most prevalent to avoid meandering too much. His discussion of those disorders and the more general discussion of what is happening in the body when we sleep have helped me pinpoint some issues I have been having, even though I don't have a sleep disorder. I highly recommend it.
The best way to monitor your most important SaaS metrics
I'll get this conversation started. I love shows like How I Built This and Tim Ferriss' show, but too often the people they interview are so experienced that the gloss over the "how" part, and I always feel like I want the meaty substantive parts. But I get that it's difficult to do when you're attempting to tell someone's entire life story in 45-1hr.
> It opened competition in browsers (and we now have Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Brave, etc.)

MS all but ceasing development on IE after version 6 is what opened competition in browsers, not any government action. Remember from IE4 to 6 before Firefox was released Internet Explorer really was the best browser out there. MS used their Windows monopoly to aid distribution and their huge piles of cash to make it free (vs paid-for Netscape), but it wasn't like it was crap software that was only being used because MS force-fed it to everybody. At least not until they (probably intentionally) let it wither and die and Firefox and then Chrome ate their lunch.

As an artist, this article makes me so upset.

The people doing the actual work should be getting credit.

Of course the people coming up with the ideas should be getting credit too.

When one person comes up with the idea and another with product, it's a collaborative work and credit should be shared.

Artists who try to pass off a work they merely collaborated on as exclusively their own are despicable.
A big chunck of AAA game servers is already implemented in Java, .NET, Erlang.

Working memory is a decent proxy for overall brain function, and straightforward to test, eg. with a Dual N-Back game like http://brainscale.net/dual-n-back

You need to have a baseline score to compare with. Your score will improve pretty quick in the beginning and then start to level out.

I also like typing speed tests, to test the effects of exhaustion, sleep deprivation and various states of mind. (In some cases, the speed is actually increased, but typically at the cost of accuracy.)

For typing speed I use https://typeracer.com which has some excellent book and movie quotes to type.
Some fields on the "COMPANY DETAILS"-form are obviously too short. For example "How far along are you?" is 60 characters.
Chinese scientist wonders how he ended up on the U.S. visa blacklist
That’s a blanket statement that leaves too much wiggle-room. The UK’s NHS, for example, is partly private insofar as GPs and many other doctors work for themselves and contract themselves out to the NHS instead of being NHS employees. Correct me if I’m wrong, but a group of doctors could form an organization that forces its patients into binding arbitration for disputes while still being contracted to the NHS. It would result in a backlash of public opinion - but still possible.

The NHS also has other private components: it used to run its own logistics division which was scrapped in recent years and replaced with services provided by couriers like DHL.

Is it just me or does the Add Picture button not work? I tried both Firefox and Chrome.
"perfectionism" as it's used here seems like just optimizing your life around a narrow set of criteria.
Startup School is targeting a much wider audience. We really want to help every entrepreneur that wants help with this online course.
Oh that's a very interesting perspective. I didn't even think about that. Yes there is a sense of "mind your own business" in China and that may be a more recent development. What I was referring to is more along the lines of how you've valued and viewed by people you know -- one does not have inherent value simply because he is a human and therefore the idea of human rights and individual liberty/freedom are somewhat foreign concepts to China and perhaps East Asia.
The primary channel is the inverse beta decay where an anti-neutrino interacts with a proton to produce a neutron and a positron (via a W boson like you said).
It can also just scatter of an electron (via either the W or the Z boson).

But the important point is that it's only via the weak interaction (meaning only via the W^\pm and Z^0 bosons).
I install a profiler, like Ants performance profiler [no affiliate], to see what the code is doing.
For whatever reason, it seems Musk has completely forgotten that he lost the ability to be treated like a normal person when he took on the over-ego'd persona of a billionaire mad-scientist.

When it works well, that's great, but he forgot to plan for when it doesn't work or more specifically, when he fucks it up and badly.

And to be fair, some of the reaction, in general, to him is driven in part by jealousy and politics. I'd love to be a billionaire mad-scientist type (Frankly, I'd settle for being a thousand-aire crank-in-garage, which would be step up for me) but you have to expect outsized reactions.

You wrote that Unity FFI is much faster than cgo. I'd be interested in knowing more about this. Why is it faster? Can you share a link to some reference material and/or benchmark?
It's a bit older, but FreeSpace I/II were open sourced and the engine has had major updates and improvements over the years.

The games can be had from GoG very cheaply, and hold up quite well, especially with the updated engine and graphics.
That idea is completely false.

It's plausible that Android would have nearly as many users.

Google, for instance, could have all of the current manufacturers agree to OEM their Android devices. Possibly with co-branding.
Good, we need more competition. Here are my thoughts:

Netflix is to metric driven and the creative uniqness of their original content isn’t that great.

Prime Video has a lot of UX issues.

I gave up on Hulu years ago, no idea what it’s like these days.

YouTube is the next social platform, which has a whole new set of issues.

I just want to watch a movie or show every now and then, offline, and with no compression artifacts.

There is no reason why I shouldn’t be able to purchase and download movies or shows.

Now that I think of it, I'd like something like this too. Would pay $100 more for this type of seat. OP, you asked for an idea, now you got it. Go build it... wait, you were waiting for someone to say a To-Do list for cats?
But a controlling position is. The earlier terrm engrossment makes this concept clearer:

To acquire most or all of (a commodity); monopolize (a market).

https://www.thefreedictionary.com/engrossment

The meaning is much the same as an engrossing thought or conversation: one that fully occupies your attention.

It is as engrossment rather than monopoly that Adam Smith discusses exclusive control.

Of trade with a region:

The moderate capital of the [Hudson Bay] company, which, it is said, does not exceed one hundred and ten thousand pounds, may besides be sufficient to enable them to engross the whole, or almost the whole, trade and surplus produce of the miserable, though extensive country, comprehended within their charter. No private adventurers, accordingly, have ever attempted to trade to that country in competition with them. This company, therefore, have always enjoyed an exclusive trade in fact, though they may have no right to it in law....

Of skilled labour:

Half a dozen wool-combers, perhaps, are necessary to keep a thousand spinners and weavers at work. By combining not to take apprentices they can not only engross the employment, but reduce the whole manufacture into a sort of slavery to themselves....

Of grain:

[I]t is scarce possible, even by the violence of law, to establish such an extensive monopoly with regard to corn; and, wherever the law leaves the trade free, it is of all commodities the least liable to be engrossed or monopolized by the force of a few large capitals, which buy up the greater part of it. Not only its value far exceeds what the capitals of a few private men are capable of purchasing, but, supposing they were capable of purchasing it, the manner in which it is produced renders this purchase practicable....

Of land:

Great tracts of uncultivated land were, in this manner, not only engrossed by particular families, but the possibility of their being divided again was as much as possible precluded for ever. It seldom happens, however, that a great proprietor is a great improver. In the disorderly times which gave birth to those barbarous institutions, the great proprietor was sufficiently employed in defending his own territories, or in extending his jurisdiction and authority over those of his neighbours. He had no leisure to attend to the cultivation and improvement of land....

And more.

Google is being accused of using its dominance to force __manufactures__ into setting Google search as default, Chrome as default browser and not selling phones with Android competitor like LineageOS

Apple is incapable of abusing manufacturers as Apple does not work with manufacturers at all. The entire discussion simply does not apply to Apple.
Also, the "crying with laughter" face, in practical use, comes across as absurdly over-eager to express inauthentic laughter. Most people just knee-jerk flood you to hell with those things, at the slightest hint of a joke.

I'm tired of seeing that stupid, stupid cartoon face. I wince when I see it. It pains me. It's like getting stabbed in the gut for offering chewing gum to someone. I don't like to tell jokes anymore.

I want to reply:

Please stop laughing so hard.
The joke I made was not that funny.

I notice Facebook users have the worst sense of habitual knee-jerk emoji obligation. I think it's because they are restricted to expressing only five emotions.

1. Thumbs Up (like, but often mere acknowledgement)
2. Heart (love, but often off-topic)
3. Wow (horrified, shocked or amazed, but which?)
4. Cry (sad, but why?)
5. Mad (angry, but at who?)

In most cases, this leaves them resorting to an ambiguous "Wow" for most non-thumbs-up reactions, leaving the reader to question if it's a good wow, or a bad wow.

Because they've accepted ambiguity as fact when communicating with individual icons, they also lack a sense of volume. They've been trained to understand that CAPS LOCK is bad, but it will be years before emoji fatigue sets in. For this reason, I've mostly withdrawn from interacting with many people.
It's about the ability to stifle competition. Apple's market share is too small to do that.
You have to love newspeak; define vandalism as street art, because of what? Some repressed desire of the harried urban knowledge worker to strike back at the Man who forces him to live in a rabbit hutch, riding on dirty subways to get anywhere? So very Norman Mailer.

Though formalized and approved vandalism is so very millenial as well, legitimize the protest by calling it art and make a few vandals rich by painting slogans the elite find friendly. It's not a bug, it's a feature!

I don't really think there's an ideal term to describe his skill set, but I think it's reasonable to consider him a scientist that works with computers, in the broad sense. (and certainly he has a ton of traditional CS skills and has personally authored lots of software at this point, including the vyper programming language and pybitcointools)
It seems to me that he's advancing the research frontier in an area of computer science. Whether or not he has a PhD seems pretty irrelevant to that.
LoopBack 4 Introduces Express Mode for CLI
My cofounder and I took this course last year. About the format of the course and efficacy:

- assigned mentor: we were assigned a former yc startup founder as mentor. the mentor had 30 minute 1-1s with us once a month and gave us useful advice on a wide range of matters.

- weekly homework: choose a single metric you'll measure through the duration of the course and report the metric and growth weekly. The metric could be DAUs, number of customers you've talked to, whatever. It's for you to figure the most important thing to focus on. We were running the startup in a bit of an ad hoc manner until startup school; weekly metric reporting helped focus our efforts in service of a single meaningful metric.

- group calls: we were lucky to be in a good peer group comprising about 30 startups of all kinds -- medical device to SaaS to consumer apps. There were weekly 1-2 hr calls chaired by the mentor. Before the meeting, the mentor sent out a questionnaire to fill out -- what's your product's value prop, what setbacks have you faced, etc. -- and startups would be randomly chosen to talk about their response to the questionnaire. Lot of time for Q&A. Our peer group is still in touch through a facebook group, where we occasionally share progress.

- Demo day: record a 2 minute video talking about our startup. This forced us come up with a concise statement to describe our startup and gave us a platform to showcase it.

If I had to summarize the benefit of startup school, it would be three things:

- quality mentorship

- diverse peer group

- forcing function for startup to hit goals

I'll venture to say it's probably one of the most valuable things an early stage startup could invest time on.
Sleep is when the brain 'repairs' itself, so you definitely need it. Do you snore? You may be waking up often due to lack of oxygen. I recommend you do a sleep study.
Great. That makes sense then. Thank you!
