Actually I'd say it is very much true of most San Francisco cuisine and produce which is ridiculously overrated. You can go to an average restaurant in Paris run by some working class schmuck and get Chez Panisse tier food for half the price or less.

I'm not sure how you're supposed to judge a nation's cuisine by anything but personal anecdotes, unless you have some metric for noticing American tomatoes taste like paste, and Italian ones don't.

Huh. Just the other day I listened to this podcast https://www.npr.org/2019/02/05/691697963/close-enough-the-lu... which discusses this exact new wave of living vicariously. Woodworking videos is one of the examples in the show. I highly recommend listening to it.
I agree, having visited a couple bigger libraries in a big city many times and there's such uncontested unruliness going on there every time - people talking loud on their phones, people shouting, listening to music on their phone speaker, large groups in communal spaces playing games or hanging out making constant noise.

Granted, these libraries had dedicated study or reading spaces but I guess I prefer the more traditional outlook of a library and it'd be nice if quiet was strictly enforced in libraries and they were not made into some hybrid public communal spaces with books, research and studying as an afterthought but that's just me.
I have a touchscreen Kindle that's a few years old now and I've never had the problem where it switches to a random page.

Incredible. Top HN comment is wondering why anyone uses UI software to manage a library instead of the filesystem.

I'm not even sure where to start. But that you can't even envision a few reasons why someone would use something is very limiting. At least on an empathy level but probably on a professional product-design level as well.

I can certainly appreciate your point when the software's backing database is unusable and human-unfriendly, and this is supposedly the reason why you hate Calibre, but the folder that Calibre stores my 12k books in and it's nicely organized. The other day I even Airdropped it to my friend where he imported it into macOS' Books.app.
JPEG Compression and the Golden Hour
The 8-hour-workday and 5-day-workweek movements were largely independent in time, and while there was some overlap in terms of both implementation and in terms of the populations demanding them, they really came from different places.

People first started getting into the 8-hour workday at the beginning of the 19th century, and it was largely driven by workers, tradesmen, and utopian communists who wanted life to consist of more than just working from the moment they woke to the moment they collapsed into sleep. "8 hours work, 8 hours rest, 8 hours sleep" was the sort of slogan that went in to that. Working too much each day just sucks.

The 5-day workweek was at the beginning of the 20th, and was much more tied into the Great Depression, automation, and managing employment as a civilization. While people have come to enjoy the quality-of-life improvements associated with the existence of a "weekend", it wasn't really the motivation for the shift so much as limiting the work done per worker to offset the decreased labor demand associated with increased productivity. (Although, practically speaking, a lot of the actual regulations that encourage employers to only work people 8 hours a day date/40 hours a week date to this time in the US.)
I don't mean a miss, I mean "This phone breezes through the dragnet but is clearly moving the wrong way to be associated with the crime in question, so we can discard this suspect."

I'm assuming you don't want to waste the conical rear section. If you waste it, then to keep the aircraft balanced you must also waste a section at the front.

The steeply sloped rear seems to be trouble for adding a bomb bay there. You'd want to fit a rotary dispenser, but it would need to be a conical section designed for a specific location in the aircraft.

Sometimes we drop really long bombs to penetrate deep bunkers. These bombs need really long doors.

"digital bullying"?
It's always a constant struggle, just like Internet censorship [0]. Politics usually sell it with the "It's only used against terrorists and pedophiles!" angle, while police actually end up mostly using it in drug-related cases.

But it should also be noted that the US had its fair share of influence in eroding the actual application of privacy laws in Germany, by pressuring Germany to modify its G-10 law to appease the NSA [1].

People need to remember that the German BND (German intelligence agency), traces its roots straight back to the Gehlen Organization [2], which was established in alliance with the CIA after the end of WWII.

It's this old shared-history that allows the BND and NSA to work as closely as they do, to this day, bypassing privacy protections of the German Grundgesetz trough designed loopholes and secret agreements.

Case in point: According to German law it was completely legal for the NSA to listen in on Angela Merkel's phone calls [3].

If the money's good, and the management is sane, and you like your co-workers, I'd think twice before I left. If the money's good, but the management is bonkers, and the co-workers are toxic, it's probably time to get out.

Boredom is a factor, but it's probably less important than the other factors I mentioned. I could leave a good place because of boredom (in fact, I may do so before too long), but I'd leave a lot sooner because of bad pay, bad management, or bad co-workers.

Most of these types of correlations turn out to be nothing. Don't get your hopes up.

If a study shows A and B are correlated, it could be any of:

1. A causes B.
2. B causes A.
3. They are both caused by a third factor C.
4. Random chance.
5. Bad experimental design. Science is hard.
6. Fraud.
7. Probably other things I can't think of right now.

Using that analogy, it could also be compared to a forced spell-checker such that you cannot submit your document at all unless every word passes the spell-check. Some words are not in the dictionary; you may need invented or new words at times.

I always wanted something that's in-between both: an "analyzer" that warns you of oddities, but doesn't prevent running the program. You could put indicators to stop notices about things you know will be otherwise flagged.
I track my time, too, and my biggest complaint is how long it takes. I think it's a great idea for companies to show why time tracking matters so it doesn't feel so futile.

I only mentioned a what-if example in response to your what-if example in your first comment.
Medical-assisted suicide systems are already in place in numerous countries for terminally ill patients. Are you suggesting these systems be implemented for anyone?
Your mention of free will suggests that these systems should be in place for all people and to be done promptly without question as anything that impedes this, (eg, physical or psychological examinations, waiting periods, etc.) would also be going against free will. I don't think a person requires easy access to death in order for free will to exist. People are irrational beings, especially so when considering taking their own life; allowing these people to make severe decisions in extreme irrational states, is well, irrational in itself.
you haven't mentioned your goals here anywhere - do you have any that you're pursuing? Working harder should be a means to an end (pursuing a passion, advancing a career, etc) and it's much harder to work hard on something without having a reason to do so. Also, arguably pointless.
Find a purpose that drives you. Volunteer your time, start a business, have kids, get another degree, build a house start to finish. From the purpurse, the desire to get thinks done and associated time management will follow. Jobs can serve the function of having a purpose, but can also not be sufficient. Do something hard, not easy.
I like your post. Let me shoulder some of your downvotes.
YouTube doesn't want to contain it, I don't think. Practically any "watch next" loop from, say, any video about video games will bring you in short order to a Jordan Peterson thing, and from there it is generally no more than a jump or two to a man embodying the concept of a fedora lecturing viewers on the grand feminist conspiracy. Google presumably knows that this happens, and are okay with it.

And that's from a review of a video game, say. If you start on a video about politics you'll be seeing complete insanity within minutes if you just do "watch next".

> many of us with this problem cant afford to give up the device for the amount of time it takes Apple to fix it.

This is my current situation. I am eligible for a free keyboard repair (2017 MBP), and I need one owing to sticky keys, but last I checked the estimated repair time was over a week. I would be hard pressed to go one day without this device. I cannot suspend my livelihood for 7+ days.

The more this problem festers the more I am tempted to buy a solid laptop and dip my toe back into development on Windows, or try my hand at Linux. That transition would be at least as disruptive as the keyboard repair, but it would enable me to untether myself from this decreasingly reliable maker of tools.
Oh god I couldn't agree more. The new base Kindle costs more than what I paid for my Kindle 4 nearly 10 years ago, and is in my opinion far worse.

Hardware keys are now apparently a premium feature and you now need to spend nearly 200 euros more to have them. All I want is an updated version of Kindle 4 with an added backlight (sidelight?).

Can anyone recommend any alternative e-readers that have hardware page turners and a backlight that costs at most around 100 dollars?

Imagine you have 7 minutes for a patient, and off to the next one. Imagine 90-95% of your work time is spent in front of computer, filling in forms for every patient coming in, getting any treatment or leaving hospital. Each one takes 60-90 minutes (no kidding). My fiancee's daily/nightly routine, every single day, in biggest hospital in Switzerland.

Our romantic views on what it is to be a doctor are long gone, unless you go with orgs like MSF to ie Africa. Reality is, most of doctor's work these days is pure bureaucracy (maybe apart from surgeons). Any job that gets into this 'corporate work' state will have any positive energy drained out of it.

Do you know any doctors personally? Most of them end up pretty disappointed bitter with their work right after school - those rosy expectations meet reality. In fact, in our circle of friends where there are many young doctors, there is 0 happy with their work.

The line that expressed the author's opinion most clearly to me was this:

> Public discourse doesn’t exist in a free market.

I read the article as an indictment of capitalist forces, which pressure people into conformity as a path towards, ironically, (economic) freedom.

The author is fighting and is in conflict. I wonder, though, if there is another way, so that freedom doesn't have to come through either blind conformity or "me against the world" conflict. There are a lot of things in our world and our culture which I don't like, yet isn't recognizing my powerless to change the world to my liking an equally valid path to freedom?

Agreed. I made the same point a few comments above.
I knew this would blow up. Sadly, Amazon/createspace (now called KDP) apparenty has no mechanism or will to ban users who abuse the system. I am a KDP author myself, with three titles under my belt in the nature/regional category. About three months ago I noticed flagrant copyright infringement of a well-known author in my field. The title had a one star rating, because a number of people had left negative reviews pointing out (in no uncertain terms) that it was not genuine.

I emailed and then called support (twice) and pointed it out. Even after escalating the issue as far as I could, it resulted in no action. Even a cursory review should have stopped the title from being published, since it was of ridiculously poor-quality (analogous to someone publishing a title called "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Legacy by J.K. Rowling" and having an apparently legit front cover but an interior filled with almost nonsensical, semi-autogenerated text). The fact that a title like this can be published on the platform at all indicates that the review process for new titles is sadly lacking any application of common sense.

I'm appreciative that Amazon is pushing the envelope in supporting self-publishers via their print on demand services, but by failing (and actually refusing) to police it they are giving a bad name to the whole enterprise. Through their inaction they are encouraging the copyright infringers and scammers to turn what could/should be a great service into a toxic ecosystem.
