> I love NYC. I want to do open source and I want to live in comfort in this city.

Godspeed. I'm all for subsidizing open source development, at a level that can probably only come from taxes. One _tiny_ step in this direction was recently proposed by https://twitter.com/paulmromer/status/1065278677649432576 (let federal research grants fund open source).

Still the above quote really exemplifies for me what the last several years have struck me as the artist-ification of a segment of developers: expectation of creative control and compensation, at once, with very low barriers to entry.

At the same time we seem to have a bifurcation of developer compensation, not as extreme as with artists (though maybe even more extreme if FANG founders counted as developers), perhaps more like lawyers, though the evidence I guess is unclear https://danluu.com/bimodal-compensation/

I doubt subsidy of open source development is going to produce a large number of FANG level compensated positions, unless that is an explicit policy choice, with high barriers to entry for such funding. But it could produce a large number of "living wage" positions.

Also have to look at the living cost side, which in elite cities is exacerbated by subsidies to property owners and elite industries such as finance. For "living wage" positions occupied by subsidized artists, developers, or a host of less desirable jobs, to be comfortable in elite cities, subsidies to elites have to be cut and/or elites have to be taxed so that their demand goes down. Also of course allow cheap housing.

One important note for US citizens, you still owe federal income tax even when permanently living abroad unless you renounce your citizenship. So while the taxes might be reasonable there, you still may owe the US too for the difference between what you pay there and what you would’ve paid here. It’s even more complicated if you are self-employed in another country. There’s a lot of nuances that I’m not qualified to cover, so I highly recommend talking to an accountant before taking the plunge.

> This is exactly the kind of minutiae that GP was bemoaning.

How is this “minutiae”? You should always know the possible range of a numeric variable or field when you create it, so why not just write what size it is? In Rust the main numeric types look like this: i32, u64, u8. You just pick the one you want.
I think data scientists needs to produce more actionable insights as oppose to living in their own world. I suspect there will be an rising group of people who can understand data science techniques and communicate them effectively to drive business decisions. These people will be the ones who can clinch the top posts.
This must have been it. Still not sure at which point I've ever logged in to quora, but I can't think of any other explanation
Strength is actually very important if you read Taoist sexual kung fu practices, they even had exercises for tongue strength specifically.
I'm not sure what being royalty has to do with women's rights. You don't need rights to be a princess, just parentage. It's also weird to try to inject wokeness into talk of a princess through feminism when the idea of royalty is a deeply racist institution; I would think you'd take that angle.
my emacs config is init.el having

(require 'package)

(setq package-enable-at-startup nil)

(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/") t)

(package-initialize)

;; Bootstrap `use-package'

(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)

(package-refresh-contents)

(package-install 'use-package))

(org-babel-load-file (expand-file-name "~/.emacs.d/myinit.org"))

then you can put your configs in an org file. using `use-package` means I can just copy/paste the file to new emacs and all my packages are auto installed etc..

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

(use-package command-log-mode

:ensure t)

#+END_SRC

also, i highly recommend package `which-key` - it displays what commands are available along with their keypress.
LTO versus Cloud Storage Costs: The Math Revealed
Bad performance in Firefox is a known issue and I'm working on improving it. It's not an issue in Chrome and Safari. Low performance can be noticeable in new GMail design, but the reason is their heavy stylesheets full of unused code and images, that Dark Reader tries to analyze. Some day it will be fixed by adding some static themes for popular websites.
Tried it.
CS50 is great but many of the free courses on Udacity are superior. (Not all of them, but I would say more than half).

Also, Udacity is for learning self-driving cars, algorithmic trading, conv nets for object recognition and stuff you wouldn't get elsewhere.

It is virtually never required. Even Chrome's interpretation of undefined behaviours is convenient (i.e. margin: auto on elements with only a max-height; this doesn't work in EdgeHTML or Gecko)
Sure it does. Spectrum is a common resource. That's why it's hard to take a call in a stadium. And we let people bring their phones there.

Besides, dumping private property on public land is what parking cars is. I'm comfortable outlawing this if we outlaw all street parking as well.

You're preaching to the choir, my friend. Why do you think I moved there?

Ultimately it wasn't the right balance of priorities for me. No need to take offense though. I'm sure you're one of those people who either hates NYC or says "great place to visit, but I'd never want to live there". Doesn't bother me :)

And yeah, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but rural Tennessee is full of "backwards hicks". Doesn't make them bad people but our views do not align and I don't want to live in that culture any more than they (you?) want to move the Upper West Side.
If you have dim lighting, you can cause eye strain, and in extreme cases actual eye damage, by having small points of bright light in your vision like a phone or computer monitor because your pupils will be more relaxed.

Even now with the benefits of warmer color temperatures becoming mainstream knowledge, most people still use blindingly bright screens with high color temperatures, which causes more eye strain.

Also when you're staring at a monitor for 8-12 hours a day, it becomes less about readability and more about comfort. That's why most programmers prefer dark themes.
