The silver lining is that issue-based efforts have risen to fill the vacuum. I'm as partisan as they come, and I think this is a huge leap forward.

If we (USA) replace FPTP with Approval Voting and Proportional Representation, perhaps the policy-based coalition forming will transition back from 501c3's to campaigns & caucuses.

Do we know if Japanese businesses realized this at all? I think here in North America companies are still thinking it'll all be fine and the knowledge will somehow magically transfer to the next generation that they couldn't be bothered to train, largely as a lot of baby boomers haven't left yet, but they are going to, and soon.
Well surprise, I actually use that feature in real life with my real email.

It is really helpful if you want multiple profiles for a service (ex. Different mode, different recommendation) or in filtering all emails sent to that specific address (can't filter with the "from" as I don't know who is emailing me)

Actually, I find having a superficial knowledge of a lot of topics pretty useful as well. It opens perspectives, and opportunities. And there is not enough time in a day to read everything, listen to everything, watch everything, practice everything. Shortcuts are fine.

But as you say, "It's easy to feel smart". That's the real problem: you don't know what you don't know, and you should not get cocky.

You're free to see it how you like.

I personally see it as one step in the direction of work totalitarianism where everything you do is thoroughly designed for workplace productivity.

I have no doubt that if megacorps started to build bedrooms in their offices (even with bunkbeds) and offered them for free a lot of people would gladly move in there permanently without even thinking about the big picture.

But again, you do you, and you set your own boundaries.
That ended rather abruptly, and never even mentioned decline or running out.

I know some people get turned off by his delivery and how some people poorly execute what he teaches, but I have found this to be a life changing book. I've read it easily a dozen times and listened to the 8 hour audio version almost as many times.

The main take away that I use all the time is that most of us jump to solution oriented problem solving when in conflict or explaining our side, and that's usually not what people are looking for. When someone is upset, they are usually looking for empathy. They want to be understood. When they are understood, they are able to problem solve or hear the other side.

The problems are that:

1) Marshall is teaching a new language. So, he's speaking slowly, repeating himself, and talking at a very basic level. That's why it sounds unnatural.

2) People generally suck at giving empathy, even more so when they are personally invested in the situation. So, they have a bias against it.

But, like learning any new language, when you get to native speaking level, it sounds very different.

I do couple's coaching on the side, and this is one of my main tools. It is amazing to watch. A couple who comes in and sit on opposite sides of the room, not looking each other will be cuddling on the couch crying in each other's arms 20 minutes later, right after I translate their actions into the feelings that drive those actions and simple requests. They see each other at a deep level, and that's what people typically want.

I'm having trouble finding a source with a search engine, but I've heard of bronze age shields that were impossible to reproduce with current metallurgy. Ancient concrete recipes are rediscovered occasionally. These aren't fields though. The loss probably wasn't as simple as older technology being surplanted by newer tech.

I think what you are looking for my be found in farming though. I would think there are entire avenues of research abandoned.
Busting the Bottleneck
A dozen or so [maintenance issues] were considered more serious. They included problems with the ship’s primary navigation system. It was the oldest such system among destroyers based in Japan. It was running on Windows 2000, even though other ships had been upgraded. It could not display information from the AIS.

The broken email system had a “major impact” on the ship’s day-to-day operations. Microsoft Outlook did not work. Nor could commanders communicate over a classified email system...

Technicians were constantly fixing the SPS-73, the other main navigational radar on the Fitzgerald. Sometimes, the radar would show the destroyer heading the wrong way. At other times, it simply locked up and would have to be shut down...

A third radar, used for warfare, was slow to acquire targets, but technicians had installed a temporary fix that became permanent. “Problem known since 2012. Declared hopeless,” read notes attached to the repair report...

Other equipment had been written off, too. The so-called Bright Bridge console was supposed to help the bridge crew by sharing information from the combat room. The console had been scavenged for spare parts, leaving the station unmanned.

I found this section of the article legitimately infuriating. How the hell does a first-line warship of the United States Navy get into a state like this? I can understand the occasional malfunction, but this sounds less like that and more like some sad-sack Russian ship circa 1995, where the crew is struggling to keep the thing afloat with just duct tape and bubble gum. But at least the Russians in the '90s had the excuse that the government that had built the ship had collapsed and the replacement hadn't bothered spending a dime to maintain it. What's our Navy's excuse?

Based on the article it sounds like the excuse they've settled on is just blaming everything on the crew, which is shameful. Things don't get this bad in the absence of some kind of systemic rot. If that rot isn't tackled now it'll end up having to be tackled after we lose some future war, in which case, God help us all.
I too have been thinking similar to this. Been doing it for years; taking notes, saving pages and stories.

I've got a few ideas how to expand and scale in ways that I think is not really being done, and have been planning a trip to look more into these as a possible base plan: https://www.escapetraveler.net/traveler

I think good looking is important, and then branch into three lines, pine focused on super affordable, another with luxury and multiple uses, and another with expand-ability.

I had initially looked at some spaces in TN that could ramp this kind of production up, but now I see it would need seed money to actually get off the ground.

I think these could solve the problems of several groups with different goals, and that is exciting.
Such an amazing piece of work from one of the greatest thinkers of the past century.

Well when you say something like "silencing someone by any means necessary based solely on their beliefs is justifiable" I think it's fair to make sure you know that you're literally advocating killing people based not on their actions, or even their words, but their thoughts.
Close to where I am the ISIS [1] neutron source [2] notoriously used a lot of second hand stuff when it was built. It is a tremendously successful science facility despite the fact that some parts date from the 1950s [3] [4].

I was told that some electrical equipment that had previously helped power the London Underground; I have never been able to find a source for this but I desperately want it to be true.

A brief primer on alternative consensus mechanisms
Oh look, a glorified bucket! Cool cool. Hey I had one of these, I also had a bucket with a toilet seat which is essentially the same thing. My point remains; dealing with your waste if you're living in a van, or dry camping is a giant pain.

I also live on the coast, and know many fishermen/lobstermen etc. - do you know where they shit? Not in a "marine toilet" Hang your ass over the edge of the boat and be ready for a round of jokes and pranks by your shipmates. Why? Because dumping your shitter is a giant pain (I feel like a broken record)

So something that's an afterthought in a real home, becomes a weekly, or every other day chore of finding a public toilet, removing your toilet (full of shit and piss) from your van, then dumping shit in said toilet without spilling (not easy) all the while avoiding police/public works employees who would rather you not dump your shit into their facilities. Sounds fun.
The difference is that very few people work in those environments. Many have worked in noisy office environments for at least the past century.

I'm sympathetic to someone who can't/won't work in those conditions. The good news is that, if they're in tech, they probably have alternatives--something which many don't have. Insisting on remote work or other conditions that allow them to work in peace and quiet may not optimize for salary or career. But everyone should at least consider what's important for them.

I take a LOT of supplements. There are deficiencies in the nutritional benefits of food due to overfarming and other environmental factors. Burning out is NOT a normal state of being - in the past humans did not have the luxury of resting.

So why do we feel this now? Lack of nutrition. Try taking supplements and see how it changes things. YMMV and please check with your physician before changing your diet or taking any pills.

I’ll list stuff here if others show interest.
1. You may find it beneficial to talk to a third party that isn't a friend, member of family or colleague. Somebody that can be truly objective, has the skills to get to the bottom of your thinking patterns and most probably somebody that is paid to listen and apply their skills and experience.

If you can afford it, try some Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) sessions. They can help you to recognise and understand the thinking patterns that got you here in the first place. Once you recognise these patterns and their triggers, you should be able to head them off and drain them of their power before they become fully destructive again.

You may also discover that there are other deeper underlying causes to the behaviours which inform your relationship with work. Sometimes you need to deconstruct yourself and look at the foundations before you can rebuild.

Therapy can help you get a balanced perspective on your life and hopefully to re-frame the role that work plays in that.

2. As others have said: a good amount of physical exercise also helps. Try running, swimming or cycling / mountain biking. I've been there and I cannot stress enough that physical wellness has a significant positive effect upon mental wellness.

3. Practice Mindfullness. If you don't know what that means, then now is the time to investigate.

Wishing you well. You can do it!

Most people don't appreciate just how big a 25m dish is until they are standing next to one. The fact that one is being run by volunteers is remarkable.
Can you give an example of why this is bad? What more do we really need in terms of technology, to survive as nations and be happy? Could this point in our achievement be enough?

Maybe a drought of elevator specialists decreases the amount of elevators we can have. We have to walk up stairs more often. Not ideal. But maybe more people spend less time having and raising kids and more time working on themselves. Mental health improves and people are more compassionate toward themselves and others. I would choose that world, not actively fight against it.

Consider traveling somewhere far for 2-3 weeks. Leave the phone at home.

For me, traveling resets my anxiety to zero. It reminds me there is so much more to life than “work,” and lets me enjoy those things: nature, natural wonders, cultures, languages, food, arts, ...
> Or "I have to drive through town x & y to get you to z, and they have $5 surcharges on each ride, so that will be $10 extra for the ride."

If the ride does not terminate in x or y, and is using an ordinary passenger car, I doubt that such a regulation would be enforceable specifically against ride services unless the town could show a specific danger from them. I think they would have to charge $5 for every non-resident vehicle passing through, not just ride service vehicles, to get away with it.
Yea, the debate about the UN's demographic projections are interesting, but the framing that the world is going to run out of people is dump, and kinda distracts from the interesting parts.

8 billion people is still a pretty crazy number of people.
Precisely. I work in Ops with a dash of devops thrown in. My coworkers will "document" something by copying and pasting the commands used into a confluence page and calling it done.

Which isn't very useful when you come to something 18 months later wondering "why" rather than "how". Because "why" is often more useful than "how" when you are trying to troubleshoot something.

I guess it could be condensed to wisdom over knowledge, but how do you tell people that wisdom is valuable when they clearly don't want to hear that? Wisdom takes time and effort, knowledge is a copy and paste away.
I’m not sure I’d call the people who successfully reproduce stupid. I wouldn’t call people that don't reproduce stupid either but there’s a case to be made around failing your primary objective as a living being not being a “smart” move.
I bought an Asus Chromebook recently and one of the intentions was to pair it to my iPhone to get internet connectivity while commuting to work. Turns out Chromebooks can't pair with phones, I have to use a wifi hotspot instead.
It's not uncommon in some circles. I personally know many families with 7-12 children spread among all parts of the income scale.
You could try something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rdkGUFzvfc . It burns your waste and you'll have to empty the ash tray every 2+ weeks. It's more expensive initially but is also much more convenient.
That's downright silly and a user hostile move, IMO (why at all wouldn't you want someone to test things out without having to give one of their main email address?). Your solution seems to assume that everybody uses only Gmail and Gmail plus addressing. Gmail also considers dots/periods in addresses as not existing. Try blocking those too (no, actually don't try this!). There are so many temporary or disposable email services that you'd be wasting your time trying to disallow all those. Your time could instead be better spent on making your product or service more attractive to paying customers.

Same here, my memory is one of my worst attributes. If you ask me about tasks I've done last week, I might have trouble remembering them (or any details) without looking up Jiras.

I get the argument of compounding knowledge, though. It should still apply to someone with bad memory. For instance, if I know that I'll be switching my career in about 3-5 years, won't I throw away a great deal of my knowledge and skills? Why do something like this in the first place? This goes in the same direction as focusing yourself on one thing and one thing only (in your career).
hmm, is the PLT and GOT also randomized ? if not, then that could possibly be another option for return-to-libc style attacks despite aslr.
Signal: The employee is required to intentionally alter the app to no longer provide security, such that some communication may be intercepted. They are not permitted to publicly disclose that they have done this.

Unfortunately, this goes deeper. The law may be capable of compelling Google or Apple of Australia to force deploy to your phone a malicious version of the Signal app with the "technical assistance notice".
No my answer boils down to:

- hooks are technically interesting, but make it easy for humans to screw up. It's a precise critic.

- the JS community has bad habits that can catalyse this, and above all, may lead them to avoid seing what's wrong

- they get angry when we say it, and dismiss it as nonsense.

Case in point.
Ask HN: Who has been your top mentor?
I’m curious to find out who some of the top mentors out there are - for myself, up to this point, it has been my mother, who ran her own business for 16 years and went from homelessness to owning our family home.

I’m not picky - your mentor in life, tech, business, love - whomever has been your top mentor.

Thanks in advance for sharing :)
they are fields. you're being biased. it's still lost knowledge that used to be known by lots of people. the point stands.
Why does putting up money let you decide what is sustainable? Aren't you investing in a company that already told you what they think it is?
It blows my mind how little developers seemed to be paid in Europe. I guess it's just a matter of supply and demand? With the massive cost differential I am amazed we don't see more remote/out-sourcing from California to the UK. Sure there are disadvantages, the time difference, culture, etc but it's basically half the price, or better?

My point was that I always wanted a trailer I wasn't romanced by the thought of van living, my priorities didn't change - I just simply dealt with it. Live on the road is much better now, I just want people considering tiny homes, or vans to understand ALL that's involved.
My first thought in seeing this post was wondering how they would handle the "Looks Like Meat’s Back on the Menu!" scene in the Two Towers. The ribs and sausages arrangement seemed great. Probably best to not be too true to the movies and eat raw meat...or orcs.

It's surprising to me that so many people recommend eating breakfast. There's no specific value add to eating early in the morning. There are tons of value adds to constraining the hours you eat during each day ("intermittent fasting"). Eat breakfast at your own risk:

Depends on the wishes of the people who originated the signal. There are plenty of OTA signals that are free to the public, like NOAA weather satellite data. They're paid for by the public and are in the public domain. I don't know specifically about these signals, but it seems like the Chinese government is pretty open with them as well.
Long runs.

Before a long run my mind cycles through what I need to do at work, at home, for my aging parent. I just get trapped thinking through this laundry list of worries.

After a long run my mind is different. I need calories. I need a shower. I want to do something outdoorsy with my kids.
"Amateur" here is a term defined by treaty. Radio Amateurs are prohibited by law from receiving compensation for their activities (in the US W1AW's paid operators get an express exception). Furthermore, the comms themselves can't have commercial purposes and often can't involve non-amateurs if the communications displace commercial services.

If the aviation world used similar terms a private pilot would be called an amateur pilot.
Not sure if Aristotle said that but here are a couple of other quotes

“No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training…what a disgrace it is for a man to grow old without ever seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.” - Socrates

“In order for man to succeed in life, God provided him with two means, education and physical activity. Not separately, one for the soul and the other for the body, but for the two together. With these two means, man can attain perfection.” - Plato. (I suspect this is a dodgy translation)
> I wish there were more other types who had a birthrate above replacement, but outside of religious circles, having more than 2 kids is rare and even considered uncouth.

I’ve never heard people having more than two children being referred to as uncouth. Honestly that’s disgusting.

I've never known Bluetooth to not produce a miserable experience at some time or another. It's inconsistently bad in some cases too. I hate setting up bluetooth on my car the most, I need to "Talk" to my car, and I can't just do it while stopped at a red light, I have to shut off my car and do it before I go. I still havent redone it since I upgraded phones last year... I just plug into the aux port while driving.
My bet is that those "issues and events on multiple frontiers in life" came from that sort of area in the first place.
