Easier said than done. They may respect you but they'll also likely not hire you. They have to respect you AND know you. It's hard to justify paying someone a lot if they are an unknown quantity. I checked out your HN profile: do you think you can hire more because you specialize in Computer Vision/Graphics? I'd also imagine your clientele is highly-targeted as well?
Not that I utterly disagree with what you write, but there is almost nothing you wrote mentioned in the article.

Yes, almost any exercise is better than none. The earlier in life the better. Good core is super important in, well, anything including sitting on the chair. Hiit I consider very good based on effects on me, but would like to see some long-term results and its definitely only for people already doing some regular training.

But where do you get the low rep info? This is good for only very specific exercise goals, mainly bodybuilding. Not something most people should strive for. Arnold type body looks great on photos, but is utterly impractical for normal life, super hard to reach and maintain. Low rep means you are close to your limits, which is area where injuries happen a lot, and wear on all parts of the body happens much more (muscles love it, but joints and connective tissue disagrees, and spine has a say in the topic too). Wear is something you are not aware of till its too late and all kinds of pain start to manifest.

Lighter weights, more reps(15-20), shorter stops between them (30-60s), and you not only gain much better results in stamina (what good is it to be able to lift 100kg 3x times and you're done, when you need to move apartment for example or do multi-hour hike/anything else). Muscles grow like crazy too, if you have weights just right. Its much easier to keep good form of exercise when you are not at your limit.

Screenhero.

Unfortunately, when Slack acquired it and supposedly included the functionality, it just wasn't anywhere near as good.

Still, to this day, there's nothing as good as Screenhero for remote pairing.

If you’re in your 30s a much better bet for your overall health and for keeping Alzheimer’s away is giving up on sugar, since there’s a strong link between Alzheimer’s and insulin resistance.

Exercise too does help a little with insulin resistance (but not enough to repair the damage done by a diet high in sugar), plus people that exercise tend to also eat healthy.
> Our way of life depends on low wage labour (read: exploitation of the poor) in foreign countries

In some sense this is true, but manufacturing in China is not just about low wage labour.

The lowest minimum wage in China is 12 RMB/hour. In the US the federal minimum wage is 7.25 USD/hour.
Now, 12 RMB ≈ 1.75 USD, but considering purchasing power parity (1), 12 RMB * 3.506 ≈ 6 USD.

The average factory worker wage in China is considerably higher than the minimum wage. In fact it is higher than in some eastern European countries.

Of course the above doesn't tell the whole picture as we haven't looked at for example work and environmental safety.
But the lower cost of manufacturing in China can only partly be attributed to lower wages. It also an effect of their industrial network clusters, supply of raw materials, and export subsidies.

Adding to that, manufacturing in China is not just about cost, it is also about the immense scale of their manufacturing capabilities.

If you want 32gb of RAM, it's not an option, but I recently bought a Lenovo Carbon X1 laptop and it's really great [1]. I used to develop on a 2015 Macbook Pro, which was a fantastic computer, but I don't like the new ones as much. I've also used a 2017 Dell XPS 13 and it was good, but the Lenovo feels better to me.

Things that make it great:

1) Slightly larger screen at 14" is very nice, but the overall computer is still lighter than a MBP.

2) Keyboard is fantastic

3) Build quality feels like it can hold up to more abuse than MBP or Dell XPS

4) Has USB-C ports, but also has old USB-A style ports, so no need for adapters.

I dual boot with Windows and Linux. For better or worse, I still need to use Excel sometimes and LibreOffice's version doesn't cut it. The only thing I miss about macOS over Ubuntu is the ability to install Microsoft Office (without using Wine).

> don't be the guy who has a shitty core and is trying to squat 250+

I don't really get this advice. I compound lift and when I was lifting regularly I peaked at 145kg/320lbs. I've never done focused core exercises with any regularity, I just focused on good form/posture and a neutral spine. Perhaps compound lifting itself is enough to build the core strength you need for squatting? Obviously I wouldn't recommend other people leave it out, but it doesn't seem to have done me any harm.
The bugs have been shaken out now and it works fine in production. That's true at least on x86-64 with common build options and the latest LuaJIT prerelease.

Agreed that walking is great. However, the positive bone-density effects of lifting are greater than those of walking [1].

ScreenHero.

Slack built it their app, but made it way slower and ruined the simple UI. What used to take 3-5s now takes 30-60s.
“I think you'd be better off just accepting this. The user and their user-agent has a "right" to display a website how they want, including in ways that the developer didn't think of - and including ways that are broken. The user can break your site if they want. I appreciate that this causes problems when they've not realised that it's their choices that break it, or put in annoying requests ("why doesn't this site work in Lynx"). But fundamentally they're customers, customers are always annoying.”

It’s something at least akin to unethical to deliberately break something I’ve built and then come complain to me that it’s broken.

And sure, they might be would-be customers, but not all would-be customers are worth serving.

Just as customers have the right to buy from whoever they like so to do seller have the right to sell to whoever they like (barring certain narrow exceptions like racial discrimination.)

It’s always the negative value customers that throw the biggest tantrums when they are told a business would rather not serve them. Or in the case of ad block users, not even customers just people that want something for nothing.
This isn't suprising, every person have different moral compass and value. I too would gladly work on this. Censorship is just a necessary work around (for now) to enter the chinese market.
This is just wishful thinking. Facebook is not the root of this problem. People using a medium of communication to incite violence is the problem, Facebook just happens to be the most popular and thus the most effective. History unfortunately shows that other media can just be as effective. The example of the Rwandan genocide already has been given.

Armed with that and a copy of Threaded Interpretive Languages by Loeliger (How I found out about the book is beyond me) from the library I managed to put together a complete(ish) Forth for the Apple ][ running ProDOS.

How to Correctly Pack Your Child's
At an early age, you work in order to understand the market and the customer, working close and listen to their needs! Then you find the tier 1 problem! You give a solution! Then at 45, you become a co-founder and your life becomes your job! You probably work 80-100 hours a week. You are 80 years old, you die having changed the world! Your children live in abundance, but you keep the glory and so your name lives for a long time in human history!

I've met billionaires who know the "what" and the "how" but can't give me a meaningful "Why". Their "Why" always translates in the fact that they will disrupt the world. I believe that something is missing.

I am absolutely positive but one's more and even living an eternal life I can not help myself find meaning and wellbeing in starting up a business and human existence in general. If we do not include social entrepreneurship, why devote so much time for a belief to change the world without knowing that the world actually needs that change and it is not wasteful. We should re-define the "Why" before starting a business. Otherwise, we ended up doing business for the sake of business.

Life is certainly worth living and changing the world at young or older age is absolutely helpful for humanity. But the paradox is that we find the worth of life by finding our own true worth first. Transcending all the illusions of limitations, and realizing oneness with nature's consciousness maybe is the ultimate purpose of human life.

To conclude, I'd say at a young age develop self-awareness, define you in relation to the universe and then at an older age share your inner value with others(or keep it yourself). Don't just iterate the norms. Think out of the box!

I’m just finishing chapter 1 (1/5th of the book) and the math so far hasn’t been too challenging, but you should certainly go in with the expectation that you’ll do some Googling to figure out some context to complete the exercises.

They’re different because their lived experience is one of being black or hispanic in america rather than white. The median black household makes 1/3 less income than the median white household. Whatever social forces exist to make that true—that’s what is different. (Note that this is different than simply being a white person who grew up in a lower income household. A black person who grows up in a household making $100,000 still experiences an America where that is an exceptional income for a black household, and only a bit above average for a white household. Every black person experiences the social forces that cause that huge income gap; some are just more fortunate than others or achieve more even accounting for those forces.)

Diversity isn’t about you, it’s about how society treats the group you’re a part of. Concrete example: I’m about the least “diverse” person you could meet. I’ve had friends literally forget I’m not white (“wow we’re the only white people in this theater”). But I’m brown and my wife is white, and a majority of Americans disapporved of such marriages until 1998 (when I was 14 and had just gotten a kick-ass PC with 300 MHz Pentium II). When Trump was elected, my wife was low key making contingency plans to move to Germany. Frankly, she’s kind of a prepper anyway. And I’m not worried about Trump or Bannon. But if shit does go sideways, I doubt the jack booted thugs are going to be like “oh, you go to church and subscribe to National Review? Free to go!” Society “otherizes” people-you don’t do it by recognizing that fact.

(And genuinely, I’m not complaining. I think life here is pretty great for immigrants from Muslim countries—Americans are incredibly welcoming, much more so than the people where I’m originally from.) But at least part if my point of reference for that is how much better off we are than African Americans, who are treated like second class in their own country.
When I got into consulting I read that MacKenzie article and answered an ecstatic "Yes" to all three and yet people see my resume and previous work and just immediately slot me into the "code monkey" territory. I am able to negotiate a great rate, so I've done very well, but I believe I could do better if I was able to get the higher value projects, but no one has yet to perceive me this way.

Resistance bands, a pull-up bar and a TRX go a long way for a fraction of the cost and space of a gym. Not as effective as free weights (in my personal experience) for putting on a lot of new muscle, but still quite effective.
Sure, and that's what you can do. For instance, for a website the long lived branch can contain a commit adding a link to a new feature on the homepage, only cherry picking that aspect at the very end of development so that you can work on the feature in shadow.

The point is that you merge anything that is safe to merge, which is usually most of the code if you find a way to hide it or otherwise incrementally change things.
My impression is that if you have good posture to begin with, you might just "lift right" off the bat. I have to do a ton of supplementary work to balance out my posture issues. And the progress is slower than people generally like to admit.
Is It Ethical for Nutrition Scientists to Accept Industry Money?
How about healthy people can do exercise while people with the early symptoms of Alzheimer's are kind of bad at it, but they just need to try harder and have their Medicare to pay people to help them flail around a little more gracefully and when their disease progresses we can just blame them for their disease because of their lack of exercise even though it's a bit hard for them to remember to exercise at that point.

Untangling the wires – How 2019 will cut the VR umbilical cord
do you have space in your home for a set of dumbbells? You can lift plenty of weight using just those. A barbell is better if you have room for some basic equipment (flat bench, squat stand/power rack, rubber mats for deadlifts if you have a solid floor).
There still isn't a popular messaging and voice call platform that supports private end-to-end encryption by default. How terrible is this? I mean it would be so trivial to establish a secure and private communications standard. Europe and North America has a population of almost a billion people combined. If 500 millions of those live in first-world conditions and only 1% cares about privacy, with $1/year worth of giving a fuck we could have a budget of $5M/year, or close to 50 top notch developers to pull this off. Obviously a lot more could be spend, but even with this minuscule spending we could still have a viable, standardized alternative to Facebook and Google.

We literally had better privacy when we had analog phone lines that anyone could tap into. That's just terrible.
I thought Mandrill used a range of sending IPs so this wouldn't be an issue? It's seem very lame if they just shard accounts across a IPs.

As someone who's been through several cycles of climate related depression this year, I just want to reach out to fellow HNers and say it's not the end of the world.

Our society, and our civilisation is going to change, in massive ways in the coming century, one way or another. And all of us are going to live in less luxury than we do now - simply because such luxury is unsustainable. But it doesn't mean or children are all going to starve or drown.

We don't know what the future holds. Go back to the boundless optimism of the fifties, where everyone thought we'd live on the moon by now, drive spaceships to work and have robot butlers. I feel like today some of us are at the other end of the spectrum, in boundless pesimism.

Do all you can to pollute less, and encourage those around you to do the same. Drive less. Don't fly. Buy second hand. Replace your oil boiler. Grow veg. Write to your representatives But don't give up on your children's future. Just because the world of their twenties won't resemble yours, doesn't mean they won't find happiness. In 30 years the world could be ugly by todays standards but you and i and our kids will probably all still be in it.

And for your own mental health, don't let HN comments drag you down. I've seen people on here literally advocating suicide over this issue. We as tech heads are typically of a personality which is susceptible to these negative feedback loops, and reading posts on here can break a person. I'm breaking my own rule today even being here but I'm feeling good for once and wanted to spread it.

Be well, have fun with your daughters, watch them grow up.

I had a similar experience with Ubuntu ten years ago. But now I have been using PopOS!_os https://system76.com/pop which is an Ubuntu distro, which has been the totally opposite experience. After the install I kept expecting everything to go wrong, and wifi not to work etc, but honestly "everything just works" seems to be the fitting description.

I still predominantly use Windows 10 due to gaming and doing a lot of .Net development, but I am changing jobs soon and I might just run Linux for a while. See what happens. Honestly my experience in Windows these days is one of pain and confusion. The file system is even annoying me quite a bit. Anyway, I probably just hit the hardware configuration sweet spot that mean't my Pop!_os installation wasn't riddled with driver issues.
If anyone senses echoes to the recent Redis license related news, consider that only applied to specific plugins/extensions to Redis (whose core remains BSD), whereas this relicensing applies to all forthcoming versions of MongoDB's core open source/community variant.
my posture has always been pretty terrible (until I got to higher weights and my posture has straightened out) so I'm not sure its that. Though I think squatting with a low bar and not moving up in weight until I was happy with my form may have helped to compensate for that.
I'm not sure, but mechanistically speaking that would make sense, wouldn't you think?
