Humans really aren’t efficient enough at gluconeogenesis to live off pure protein. It’s one of the reasons why that last chicken breast can become revolting, your body has the ability to declare a hard stop on protein consumption.

Well, for solid foods. Turns out our brains don’t think liquid calories “count”, which is why protein shakes are a thing. They let body builders massively over protein themselves. That shakes are now a cultural thing for weight loss is absolutely hilarious to me.

I did a gig last year in an open plan office with music playing all the time. Some shitty Spotify playlist. A stupid song about masturbating in San Diego apparently every 30 minutes (the song not the...oh never mind). Arrggh it's crazy making even remembering it.
Near the end of your proposed course, I would heartily recommend including https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1945/07/as-we-m.... It was the 1945 paper that introduced the ideas behind both hypertext and the science citation index. The two ideas famously got recombined some decades later by Google's PageRank algorithm.

Now reading that article, one might wonder how someone could have such a solid grasp of how computing and people could work together in practice when the transistor had not yet been invented, and stored program computers were first described only a month earlier.

The reason is that Vanevar Bush had been building and working with computers for close to 20 years!

I still use Python at work, but the lack of "real" threads in the language feels very silly when you are running your code on AWS with instances with tens or hundreds of (virtual) cores. I'm aware that you can write multithreaded extensions in C, write async code or use the multiprocessing package but these solutions feel quite clumsy.

My personal interests have been towards CUDA and Clojure for years.
I’ve read in places that using the “More Space” options for Retina Displays (essentially any higher resolution than the default), causes Firefox to slow down. I was in the process of moving from chrome to Firefox and realized mine was slow and I read some responses indicating what I mentioned above. I abandoned the effort then and there. It was unbearable.
2 things here, I think we've argued down a path by using too many examples.

My broader point is around the use of context of performance in recruitment - that is most often done, as you've referenced, from the perspective of parental income over and above anything else.

My points around race and gender are definitely not an insinuation that someone of a particular race is from a specific socioeconomic background or location either.

And again, it's not about giving undue preference to someone solely based on their protected characteristics either - in relation to the original point about how we ensure a diverse culture in an organisation, you don't get there without appreciating the context of the groups, and how they've had to perform to get there, in said organisation.

In the UK it's legal to use positive action with groups that have a record of low participation, and it's justifiable if your goal is to ensure a diverse workforce (which has been shown to improve the bottom line).

I don't mean to just attack your argument, but I don't think "segregation and passably resent by those who were passed over for not having the right bits, or color" fits the points I've been making and feels like reactionary protectionism. If you agree contextual recruitment makes sense (which you have done), then you must appreciate that relative wealth isn't the only barrier stopping different groups entering the profession.
I always regret writing those lines when I come back to them anyway. Any time I try to refactor them I throw something out of order or drop a function.

That said, I don't claim to be a clever man.
>my point was that labeling yourself as broken and assuming the victim mindset is what's unhelpful.

For clarity, and for my own benefit of writing it down -- I don't have a victim mentality, at least there's no perception of one. I'm certainly not out to blame anyone or create drama.

The background anhedonia/depression has normalised it, certainly -- my circle of friends is small and carefully selected, so I don't have many yardsticks to measure against -- but I like to think I'm glass half-full, most of the time.

You are missing the point. Each member nation should decide by itself about how open to outside cultural influences it is.
My workplace, as I am sure almost all workplaces, does a lot of things that are inefficient, but it's not a matter of respect to me. They respect me by paying me a good wage, giving me opportunities to learn new things and solve interesting challenges, and grow my career (promotions + wages).

Call me crazy If my workplace decides they want continue to pay a developer salary and have it be at 20% efficiency, then that's on them to figure it out as long as it isn't effecting my outcomes. At the end of the day, I am there for the exchange of my time for their money. If my workspace begins to interfere with that, then I'll start looking for a new place.
With depression - the key is not fighting with depression, but rather find what you want to focus on - something interesting, meaningful, especially if it relates to helping other people - and focus on it, whether you feel depressed or not.

That activity needs to be mental + physical.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not sure I'd rather live (as I do) under the US's policy regime than I would under the EU's. But our pathologies of governance are different ones.

You know how the saying goes, you can live under US domestic policy or US foreign policy, but you can’t escape US policy. The idea of the EU was that by working together the member states could get their way in the face of that US foreign policy more often than they would on their own. In the absence of a strong EU, the US and China are pretty much unrestrained in Europe.
I resent the "not too sharp" comment, and the implication that I hadn't even considered the idea that you're paying with your data coming from all three of you.

I'll respond here to all of you that responded generally with "you pay with your data, it's not free."

Ok fine, but you don't know what you're paying with on Mastodon, because you have no idea what any one node might do with your data, because there is no centralized privacy policy. Not a problem, I'm sure you read the privacy policy of every website you join right?

I'm also not sure why you assume a free, ad-based Mastodon service wouldn't exist as the network scaled.

The network has like 100k active users. It's very much in 'virtue untested' territory.
As I understand it, you can require users to get approval in order to register locally, and there are at least patches out there to create a whitelist of instances that are allowed to federate with you, but there's no way to require users from the allowed instances to get approval before interacting with local posts.

I can't speak for others, but I was looking to set up a quick elastic search cluster and Elastic's hosted offering beat the pants off of AWS ElasticSearch in terms of usability, polish, ease of getting started and security-by-default.

Thanks for this. CBD oil and psilocybin microdosing works pretty well for me, though there is a tendency for me to not find any immediate effect to the psilocybin and as such it's not something I do often enough. The CBD oil is more pronounced, though.

The meanings are the same. In one case you're sorting a set of items which are all unique, whereas in the other there are some duplicates under the sorting key. If you sort by just the suit of the cards, you have clusters that are of the same suit. It's only in the very-precise world of programming that a set versus a set of sets makes much of a difference.

My biggest tips:

- Become a "visible expert" in your space. By that I mean give talks at meetups, publish a blog about the technologies you want to work with, etc.

- One of the best things I did was to write an ebook about React. Even a short ebook can give you instant credibility (even if no one ever reads it!) - the fact that you wrote it says a lot about your commitment level.

- Be open minded about what kinds of contracts you will get. Generally, freelancers fall into a couple of different buckets: full time staff augmentation, 1/2 time or less ongoing help, one off project help.

I've written up more tips here: https://www.breakintoconsulting.com/ - and feel free to email me if you want more specific feedback or info! (email in profile)
>> unwilling to work at a price below what the market is willing to bear.

You realize I'm agreeing with you right? You are looking at the Palo Alto market, or San Jose market. But an immigrant might be willing to live in inner Oakland or a place where the market IS willing to give you a home for $1000 a month it is just not what you come to expect as an American.

I'm Indian American. My father was willing to live in a roach infested inner city apartment and thus we managed to pay $400 rent. I grew up in the US and got a top-3 school CS degree. I'm unwilling to live like my father. Hence I dont compete with H1s on the "jobs going unfilled" because they dont meet my expectations. Luckily I (and probably you) have options. My father didnt. We're lucky and we can be picky with where we live.

And for the record, the market will absolutely give you a sub $1000 apartment if you commute far out enough and live in disgusting conditions. You and I are unwilling to do so. Others will.
Ha, I do that with the ads too. Report them all as spam.

> The USA is actually not a federation, and purposefully stopped being one (it turned in a confederation

You have it backwards. The USA was a Confederation (a weak alliance of almost entirely independent nations) under the Articles of Confederation, 1776-1789

Then in 1789 it became a Federation (a strong national union of autonomous but not independent states) with the new Constitution.

In a confederation, the central government has negligible power and states can come and go as they please. The EU is arguably a confederation, and it's pretty much the only modern example, because confederations rarely last long. Historical confederations include the CSA and Holy Roman Empire.

That is not the model that the Fediverse wants to uphold (otherwise it would be called the confediverse). Mastodon is intended to be structured as a Federation, like the United States, Germany, or Malaysia, with a strong but limited central power that maintains unity among the federated members, while mostly letting them do their own thing.
I've thought the same thing every time I read a sand article. Surely this is a promising field in materials science, but I never hear anything about it.
Thanks for posting these. These numbers and loss margins seem typical for a company in this line of service (cloud or self-hosted distributed databases or data services.) See similar recent IPOs for MongoDB, Cloudera and Hortonworks.

Another useful section related to revenue in the paragraph just before the one you posted:

> As of July 31, 2018, we had over 5,500 customers across over 80 countries and in a wide range of industries, compared to over 5,000 and 2,800 customers as of April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our revenue was $159.9 million and $88.2 million in fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 81% for fiscal 2018. Our revenue was $56.6 million and $31.6 million in the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing period-over-period growth of 79%. Subscriptions accounted for 93% and 90% of our total revenue in fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively. Subscriptions accounted for 91% of our total revenue in the three months ended July 31, 2018. In fiscal 2018, revenue from outside the United States accounted for 39% of our total revenue.

I think an important difference between Babagge’s attempt and that of the London Science Museum is that, for the latter, it was much more economical to produce the parts to the required tolerances.

The difference between “takes an expert engineer a month to create” and “can be CNC’d in a day” is enormous, even if the end results are the same.
There's a model/theory out there about many of the problems in modern society coming down to our all being trapped in low-energy low-reward activities like watching TV or surfing the internet. They're just rewarding enough that we keep doing them, but also just taxing enough that they sap the energy we need to do or explore etc. I think there's some truth to it, though I wouldn't oversell the idea.

Facebook is clearly in the low-effort category. It's designed to be. That doesn't mean it should be shunned entirely - we all need to relax somehow - but it does mean it should be managed. For some people that means limiting time. For others it means increasing the reward side of the equation, which might paradoxically mean more engagement. I have a friend who's a moderator for a very large and active group there. She has made lots of friends that way, and it makes her happy. Good for her. For still others, a complete separation might indeed be the right answer.

The important thing is that no size fits all. Kids need to be taught how to make these decisions for themselves, and in the better school systems they often are. Given the newness of technology, I think a lot of adults also need such education, and sadly won't get it.
Got one in the Kickstarter and my kids love it. Great for the 7-10 age range with adult partnership. The comic story is even decent! I imagine 12+ could get pretty far on their own.
The fairly solid part here is that the west is different, and my understanding is that the divergence in things like family/clan structures dates to early medieval times, in a zone something like London-to-Milan, core europe. Something changed, long before 1500.

The peripheral was different, e.g. Scotland had strong clans until they got kicked out (to Ulster, and thence Appalachia...). And Spain wasn't even christian at this point in time.

That the church did it is less clear, I agree. There are economic arguments too. I guess I'm persuaded that things like suppressing cousin marriage had something to do with it. I'm certainly not suggesting that there's some essential magic attached to the pope! It was core europe that invented Protestantism too... at the same time as Cortez & co were taking the reconquistia to the Incas, with the pope's blessing but a very different culture.
I read them so that I can understand catalysts for a great trade, and jump on that when it happens.

What problem is this trying to solve? I don't see what benefit there is to generating a unique CSS class for each individual style; it just seems like a reimplementation of inline styles.

In addition to that with atomic CSS your application bundle size grows, i.e., at some point, you can keep adding CSS, but the file size of your CSS bundle won't change (increase).

It should be noted that this is absolutely not true if your application uses static rendering. Sure, you might be able to avoid multiple references to the same CSS rule in your stylesheet but now your compiled HTML is even more bloated. A button from any given CSS framework takes 5-12 CSS rules to look decent. Now imagine creating a unique class name for each rule and applying that to every button on the page.

There's also the issue of swapping styles in the browser to get a sense of how things look. I maintain an internal admin UI where the navbar is styled differently depending on the environment to avoid a developer accidentally affecting production data. It's a lot easier to swap `.dev` with `.prod` on an element than it is to swap out all of these class names or restart my web server, overriding the environment. DSS also means that your developers will have to sift through a lot of useless noise when inspecting the DOM; pull up https://dss-lang.com/ in your browser's DOM inspector and tell me if that's something you'd enjoy working with.
