Why would you be taking backups created by someone else, of your things? As soon as you've done that, you are already trusting that entity with your items before they did the backup. Would it matter what any metadata is?

Consider, you are still in the game I was talking about. Did they encrypt using a secret you know (your public key) or not. If not, it doesn't decrypt. If so, it does. But you still know nothing about who they are. At all. Just that whoever it was used your public key to encrypt.

Unless you are trust a signature they provide. Note, specifically not your public key, because again, either that worked to decrypt or it didn't.

So, you are ultimately back to a web of trust. There is almost certainly no getting around that.

I don't think OP is referring to a touch keyboard, but rather that the keycaps of each key would be one part of a larger multi-touch surface. As your finger left one key you could sort of "guess" the direction it was going and have something close to one big multi-touch panel that was composed of smaller surfaces. But I could be wrong as well.
That's cultural or individual. I felt a little bit guilty during my two years off since other people were supporting me in hard conditions like drilling oil on the North Slope, but I could have continued surfing the web and kayaking indefinitely.
That works for the thing expecting the large response, but requires an unusual custom configuration on the server (refuse UDP queries for specific record types but not others), and doesn't really help other clients that may make queries that yield large responses unexpectedly.

For example, the large TXT records can prevent mail delivery from some versions of qmail, including the one currently packaged with Debian stable, because it makes an ANY query for the domain (to avoid separate queries for MX, A and CNAME) but only supports UDP and only supports responses up to the 512 octets specified in RFC1035. Then it gets a truncated response when there are >512 octets of TXT records and considers it a name resolution failure.

Making the ANY query is an unusual quirk in qmail, but it could have just as easily been an actual TXT query looking for the SPF record etc.

The short answer to this, is that this is the lazy form of thinking pestering people's minds (especially young) nowadays. People who don't know how to plan their lives, finances, time, studies, family, work, health or whatever it is that needs a solution, and blame it on the system. Just like my ex-girlfriend, she used to talk on and on (and on and on, and on again) about "our system", and then after I broke up with her and she graduated college she didn't start working, she is traveling the world for the past 6 months with government welfare that Europe is so stupid to give. As the years go by she will keep complaining about "our system" but she never did anything to improve "our system", she only consumed. This is called leeching.

Or do as I'm striving to do and work 5 days a week for less and less of the year. I aim for 35 weeks, basically 2/3 on, 1/3 off. And then I find when I consult for 2 or 4 more weeks it's like a bonus.

It also allows you to work a little harder on Fridays when there's a tanigble endpoint.
I'll add a little to my post to you.

Last night, in bed, lights out, no paper or pencil, nearly asleep, I had an idea. Here goes: There's the law of large numbers, the weak version and the strong version. Good authors for the details are M. Loeve, J. Neveu, L. Breiman. I've been through lots of proofs.

Likely the easiest proof of the strong law is from the martingale convergence theorem. It's so easy, just f'get about proving the strong law and concentrate on martingales!

But a few years ago I noticed that Breiman advised students to think of a simpler case. In a hurry, I didn't.

Then, yup, last night, trying to go to sleep, I thought: The simple case is coin flipping, say, 0 and 1.

Now flip a coin, say, 50 times. Get all the possible outcomes, that is, sequences of 1's and 0's. Now count the sequences with about 50%/50% 0s and 1s. Before getting out the little formulas on combinations and permutations, or just rederiving them, guess that the fraction of the sequences with 50/50 or near that start to dominate in the fraction of all the sequences. Do this for 1000 flips, 1 million flips, etc. Guess before looking into the details and just before going to sleep, if check the details will find that a the number of flips increase, just as the law of large numbers posits, will find that the 50-50 case so dominates that the rest, as fractions, as probabilities, head for zero. Presto, bingo, convergence! That's just a guess. I still haven't worked out the details. With the details, the guess might be right or might be wrong. But that's a little of how intuitive guessing goes. My guess now is that for guessing that guess was pretty good. I've published theorems that started with guesses less good looking than that one!

Lesson: For proving theorems, and finding new ones, intuitive guessing, sometimes starting with simple cases, at times can work.

.test is also problematic for the purpose of hosting internal (but not development/testing) domains on a private network.

There is a draft RFC to reserve .internal for this purpose, which I think makes a lot of sense.

I mean the test image itself shows no nudity. It's a woman's face. Regardless of the source, I do think it shows respect and discretion that they cropped out the nude part. It shows that they at least thought a nude image would be unprofessional in a professional setting.

Personally, I found the story of her life interesting and uplifting (especially about her days at Kodak). If they had selected a landscape or airforce test pattern, we wouldn't have this wonderful story or be getting to read about this woman's life. It's a human connection and history of a time that may have been operating under different social norms.

It's a unique part of the culture and a personal story and it saddens me that some people are able to find negativity in it, just because of the source, and I find it very disrespectful to Lena herself -- there's nothing wrong with how she lived her life or what she did to earn her current minor celebrity.

https://namesilo.com - reliable, cheap & they offer free whois privacy. All they do is sell domains.
I would like to offer a different point of view here. Speaking as someone who has done consulting and owns a business. I would leave those hourly jobs for someone else. Focus on selling the result or business impact here. Frame and charge for it that way. You do not want to be some charge me by the hour consultant where they can just find someone cheaper, they will start to think of you like that, and will find someone else.

Do not overcharge or be dishonest about it. But, what is this result worth to them? I'd think of it that way. I have seen people pay 250k for a months work. But, the impact was massive for the company. I am positive this is on the small side as you work up the food chain. There is some free work up front in scoping things out, but then I would sell time in blocks or packages, and do not really get into what you are charing by the hour. They must have some budget for this project, the timelines, a general scope, etc. Make your proposal around that in the context of the impact to the company.

This depends on your field and clients too. But, I'd look to move as quickly as possible from hourly to package deal. There is risk but there is also big reward.

If you're looking for textbooks, the two big ones are "Real-Time Rendering"[1] and "Physically Based Rendering from Theory to Implementation"[2]. The former focuses on techniques used in real-time rendering (frames per second), while the later focuses on those used in offline rendering (seconds per frame). If you want something more bite-sized, you might try "Ray Tracing in One Weekend".

The first 3 chapters of "Real-Time Rendering" and all of "Ray Tracing in One Weekend" are freely available on the authors' website for free or pay what you want.

True. It's also true that most people don't have the luxury of complaining that 40 hours of indoor office work is too hard (even downright unethical and inhumane). Most people in the world wouldn't even be able to conceive of the concept of complaining about the inhumane torture of having to do 40 hours of indoor office work per week.
> It's not like there aren't real problems to complain about that are shared among people and don't make someone look like self-absorbed

I think this approach to suffering is problematic. Feelings are not a contest. When I talk about things that hurt me, I don't care if someone else thinks that I'm "self-absorbed." The point of expressing myself and being vulnerable about things I'm dealing with is not to make me look good.

It's to sort out my thoughts so I can better understand what I'm feeling, it's to connect with other people who understand me and can offer solutions, it's to find other people who are going through the same things so I don't feel like I'm alone, and it's to show other people who are going through the same things that they're not alone.

Expressing yourself to other people is healthy, even for rich 0.1% people. It only becomes an issue when it causes you to stop caring about other people or dismissing their problems as irrelevant. I don't see any obvious indication in this post that OP has done that. OP can simultaneously say, "this is a hard thing I'm struggling with" and "other people have it worse" at the same time. They're not exclusive concepts.

And not to poke fun, but the framework you propose is honestly just silly if you start to break it down: is it uncouth for the middle-class to complain about rising health care costs, given that many US prisons don't even offer adequate health care at any cost? Is it a problem for the homeless to complain about eating food out of trash cans when poorer people in other countries are mixing dirt into their flour? You mention divorce as a shared issue, but really that just shows how out-of-touch you are with the plight of modern sex-slaves in ISIS controlled territories.

I like the new version, Page Speed Insights actually measures page speed now. I used to get horrible scores even though pages were fully loaded in 1/3 of a second. Now I get perfect scores.

I have clients that made a big deal about PSI and did all sorts of things to raise their old scores. Then the system changed and they went from scores in the 90s to scores in the 30s.

The new system tends to brutally punish things like ads, even Google's own AdSense. Slow servers, bloated HTML/JS/CSS, all those things that make browsing painful get penalized in a much more fair way than before.
I'd love to do 4 days work 1 day education for exactly this reason.

Though I've come to point where I'm starting to approach it strategically. For the most part the only thing that really matters is how employable you are. So long as you can find a job that meets your standards you are fine as you learn the minutiae on the job and it's always different for every job so you can't prepare in advance.

With that in mind this year I'm focusing mostly on the fundamentals doing deep dives into knowledge with extremely long half-life. I've got about 280 hours of courses I'm making my way through on Pluralsight this year. I'm about 1/4 the way through. Just started my SQL playlist and already I'm so glad I'm taking the time to dive deep on it. The difference between now and the end of the year will be night and day.

Yeah, I worked mandatory 53 hours in a plastic factory for years, sometimes six twelves in seven days. You still manage to take care of most things. Then sometimes when the economy slowed we would go down to 36 hours a week. That would show us just how much time off that actually is. Just working an 8-hour shift instead of 12 means you come home and have four-plus hours of your own time for whatever you want, every single day.

After that, programming is so far from exhausting that I work overtime just because I feel like I'm not doing my fair share any more.
Just like the sibling comment said. If you can charge it, and you are consistently getting clients at X/week. Why not charge that? Especially if you know you can produce quality work. Leave the smaller projects for others.

Maybe that's fine if you want to be writing Java 1.6, but you've basically given up at that point if that doesn't bother you slightly. I've seen Java 1.4 in production as late as 2017 but I didn't have to work on it, nor would I be happy doing so. Some people are though I guess. And I'd say that's exactly right as we need those people to maintain that system. Or we just need clients who aren't such hellish tire kickers about upgrading.

The biggest impediment for me would be finding clients. IME most programmers dont meet a lot plant potential clients when they are maintaining internal software. Even if they work for a consulting company, you can't use them due to restraint of trade clauses.

So how would you get the first customers? I'm just some guy off the street, no one is going bet money on me performing a function for their business.
What's your routine?
The sentencing study that found those differences was looking at parole decisions. It is not at all clear that the difference before and after lunch (and a similar difference after an afternoon break) shows any bias.

A later paper showed that you would get the same effect from a simple, rational time management approach. Cases that are granted parole tend to take longer to decide than those that are denied parole.

If the judges can estimate before the hearing which type of case it is likely to be (from things such as the thickness of the case file, what kind of representation the petition has, etc.), they would tend to schedule the cases that look like they will take longer first thing in the morning, or after lunch, or after the afternoon break, and they would schedule the shorter cases closer to break times.

This would result in more granting of parole in the morning and after breaks than before breaks.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4247615

For what it's worth - all of the people I know who have been able to do software-related consulting successfully over the long term don't bill hourly. They'd actually agree with you that having a minimum billable period of a week lots them lots of clients - but it lost them the clients that would try to nickel and dime them to death and complain about every invoice no matter low the hourly rate was.

It sounds like your experience has been different though, so I'm happy to hear you've found something that works for you.
