Could be boats. There are a lot of jokes about that too. But there are a lot of hobbies that can just suck in crazy amounts of money. MTG cards, Warhammer figurines, model train sets, boats, consoles and games, anime/movies/series/manga (I have a friend who has entire walls filled with this stuff). Anything were you end up collecting stuff, especially things which has gained value over time because of rarity and interest from collectors.

>to figure out where this fixation is coming from

We're steeped in an ultra-capitalist society, the fixation surrounds every one of us who participates in society. There's a reason almost every conversation with someone new begins with "So, what do you do for a living?".

Not sure if it's sarcasm. True, JavaScript is fun to meta-program. But it's hell to debug.
> That's something you want to believe, but it's not true. Lots of companies that have abusive practices are trucking along just fine.

Indeed. And it's much worse outside our industry. Hearing stories from friends and family who work regular jobs (i.e. not specialized, well-paid, in high demand) is what makes me convinced unions are a must.

It's terribly sad, but you're smart to take on this approach. The world has turned into a shark tank, and more often than not, we're just toothless mackerel swimming in that tank, waiting to get picked off. And yes, even as Software Engineers. Something I learned while living in Silicon Valley - $130k isn't much at all. Given the right (or wrong) economics, you can burn through that before July. I know it's hard for you Mr Author, but keep pushing, and one day, you'll earn your independence, and then you can do whatever the F you want =)

It wouldn't solve those problems, but sidestep them completely. UBI frees you up from the overhead of getting money and leaves time to pursue the projects that the thread's ancestor mentioned, without having to worry about sustenance.
It's an extension of the Schengen Information System (SIS)[1], which every country, which is a member of the Schengen accord, maintains.

I am not going to give the EU biometrical data, even if that means skipping some "services".

I find it funny cause Microsofts serverless infrastructure and co source code is on GitHub it may not be as pretty as a real Azure service but they let you take the damn thing with you. Not sure about other cloud providers. How the tables have changed. Hell I convinced my old boss to selectively use Microsofts Azure Functions because they were open source and we needed a slightly longer running process not part of our typical web service.
Good point. Just added the code. Thanks!
I don’t like Electron too much, and I don’t program Electron apps (I mostly code C++ and C#), but I saw good products built on Electron. For example, visual studio code is fine.

It’s the same story with all high-level tools. They’re easier to use and have lower barrier to entry, used by less skilled programmers who fail to deliver good products.

For example, Unity3D has very low barrier and there’re many low-quality games built with that. But if developers know what they’re doing it is possible to build great games, e.g. cities skyline.
I'm not trying to tell you what to write in your comments. What I mean is that your examples don't help me understand "how women think about things". If you could state what you mean by "how women think about things" in a few sentences then that might be more helpful. As it is now, I have no idea what your examples, are examples of.
Because by sharing your work, especially if you charge money, you’ll start feeling the pressure ... to improve, to support your customers, to react to your competition.

This is actually the reason for why many open source developers burn out, even if they aren’t making any money, which is tragic.

And you might say that you’ll not fall for it. Well good luck with that.

In my experience the minute you share your work with others, that’s when it becomes slightly less fun and it’s all downhill from there.
Well, indeed raising my children reminds me every day about the fact that I care too much about money. I see them grow up, while I have to do "business" all the time. I really think about moving to a rather remote place where houses are cheaper (yet have good internet access) and then less concentrate on making money, but spending time with the kids, especially on weekends and evenings.
For me, as soon as I think of monetizing something I just lose my interest in it straight away.

I don't know why it happens. I love programming, and I just put it all up on GH for free. I've actually got a few 'side-projects' which actively burn money instead of making money.

I do them purely for fun and learning, and every time I think of making money from it, it turns into a job and obligations. Now if people don't like something I build - I feel no obligation to fix it. :)

The people running the forum probably had nothing to do with he attack, and there would be no way to know which members of the forum decided to act. The only way to do it would be to somehow trace back the DDOS traffic and un-pick the network and people running it, but even then DDOS networks are often themselves fairly insecure and often taken over by different hackers for various purposes.

Perhaps he was looking for an abnormal amount of traffic, attempting to resend the same message, and hoping the server will do it multiple times in the same frame. I would guess trying to find spots where the client is overly trusted.
desktop-GUI: Many UWP APIs are only accessible to C++/CX. Plus only UWP controls written in C++ are usable from Win32 side.

I have spent the last 4 years doing green field desktop GUIs, apparently those customers haven't got the news.

HTML5 APIs still aren't a match for plenty of native APIs.

Embedded: Religious hate against C++ from older timer devs, as discussed in several CppCon and Meeting C++ talks, e.g. Dan Saks has quite a few of them.

I wrote what I considered a great paper (my professor thought it was average) a few years back modeling people's abilities for generating social, financial and familial utility. People who have a preference for something they don't have an equal ability for creating often are often unhappy and dissonant.

Eg a "wannabe celebrity". They crave social utility, but often aren't good at producing it, and so have to sacrifice social and financial gains for social ones. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

It seems my "life-tax" is needing to eat about twice as much as my wife. The extra food I eat costs more than pads. However, my wife prefers a cup, so that cost is gone. I'm still left with my dietary needs. Our weights are not that different and neither of us is overweight.

I believe the gp meant it's the goal of foreign intel agencies to encourage worldwide digitization/automation of everything (not the goal of the EU).
I have seen it done in practice, on rather large systems. But it requires actual, slow software engineering instead of the freestyle coding processes that are used in most places.
thanks! I'm planning to add a few more chapters.
I think the point of disagreement regarding the "link" is not that there is none, but that it seemed to be nothing peculiar about facial recognition.

If Apple sent a security camera picture of the robber together with information from the stolen ID to police, and police the same would have happened. So the core issue here is that the validity of the ID was never questioned, not the use of facial recognition. That might just have amplified / accelerated the identification of the wrong person.

That seems the reverse. In business, there is rarely polish because it's not profitable to do anything but the core feature, unless you are in a highly competitive market with price insensitive consumers (luxury cars and Apple), but people motivated by the drive to create do polish.
Regarding the limited frontend capabilities, I had a similar opinion at one point, but with Shiny's HTML templating (https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/templates.html) functionality one can circumvent the limited HTML that Shiny has out of the box. Besides that, there is also the possibility to communicate with R using JavaScript (https://shiny.rstudio.com/articles/communicating-with-js.htm...). These two functionalities combined allow for a frontend that is much more flexible, when compared to traditional Shiny applications. Of course, there might definitely be better solutions out there that fit your use case and Shiny's real use is primarily in sharing data analysis.
The UK is not part of the Schengen accord. So I suspect it won't be part of this repository.

While the sentence of 26 months does seem extreme, never underestimate the lengths a scorned online community member will go to get retribution for being banned or moderated.

I own and operate a community that specializes in radio communications technologies, and I've actually had an instance of a member who we banned who threatened me personally and my family by trawling through property tax records to find out personal info, photoshopped pictures of my family, and registered tons of accounts through proxies and VPNs to harass our staff and moderators. Because of the detailed, targeted threats (like specifically threatening my wife and children by name) I went to the police. They ended up simply calling him on the phone to try to get to the bottom of the entire saga and he strongly apologized (through the police, they told him to not even think about contacting me). It was as if he finally realized the severity of his actions, only when law enforcement got involved. But it was actually pretty scary because of the targeted detailed aspects of how he exacted retribution.

I think the vast majority of these types of issues are mental health related. But it seems like an especially acute problem for niche businesses and communities. The time and effort it caused me to exert made me so upset that I would have cheered a 26 month prison sentence just to make an example out of the guy, but law enforcement encouraged me to just move on.
It's well known that many members of congress passed through the act without having read it. Given the enormity of the act's effects on the country, this is quite a problematic thing.

I don't it was democracy that saw that bill through. It was crisis politics. Democracy requires a well-informed public, and capable representatives. With the USA PATRIOT act there was neither.
Not OP, but suits can be really hot and uncomfortable so you only wear them if you must. For example, you would definitely wear one during harvest but maybe not if you are just doing a checkup. Not wearing one then obviously runs the risk of getting stung. Then there are some tasks, where you would like to wear protection but can't: for example, sometimes you need to remove the queen from a hive (for example, when she is growing too old, or because the hive is too small or too large, or you want to sell one). Doing that requires very fine motor control which is hard enough in thick gloves that many beekeepers will forgo them and take the stings instead.
It can then inadvertently turn into a second job. For some people that won’t be a problem, if they develop a true passion for their hobby then it might be a great outcome!

However, for some people it might sap the original enjoyment they had. Now you’re concerned about profitability and maintaining your audience and market etc. Soon your mindless pastime is causing you stress and anxiety, which defeats the point.
People should reference more the original works of the past instead of rediscovering them
There's an argument to be made for having basic so-called leaf modules in the standard library. That is it makes it far simpler to get a basic installation of C++ and start doing cool things with it. Experienced developers or people that need domain specific features would be using their own specialised libraries anyway.

So instead of trying to figure out which one of the dozens of GUI frameworks to use in making a window and have it change colour, you just write it using the standard library. You want to do a HTTP request, then there will be code in the standard library for that.

It will also save work trying to figure out which third party library to use when you want to do these things locally on a small test project.
Taken metaphorically we’re not far away. Imagine if we come to trust ML to make decisions for us in everyday life, and we build a system which can predict with high confidence that someone will commit a mass shooting. Is it so hard to believe that might be acted on?

The fact that a criminal record cannot be revised if it contains false allegations and convictions seems to be about as flawed as facial recognition software leading to a false arrest. Seems like a good opportunity to fix both.
I'm a parent of 3 great kids, I don't agree.

My kids know that their parents are going to ask for their phones at any time, for a random inspection. We tell the kids we are their parents, not their friends. Our job is to raise them to understand accountability.

Besides giving them incentive to stay clean, it gives our kids an 'out' with their friends. If they get some peer pressure to do something they shouldn't (like post some inappropriate material online), they just have to explain "My parents are really tough and they look at all my stuff!"
We don't mind having reputations as tough parents.

We've had no problems so far (oldest is about to graduate college.) As a bonus, our kids tend to choose good friends also.
But what bogus information did they give? If the thief used his ID, it's not like they can give the police another name, is it?
If you're arrested, but not charged, and have no criminal record?
Using Uber's Cadence to Create Kubernetes Clusters
He does not do it, as far as I understand his post correctly. Funnily, I quite often find reactions such as yours coming from people who oppose the idea of having children.

A parent telling you how happy they are having the kids IS NOT telling you that you should do the same. They're just enjoying it and exposing it as a maybe these days forgotten way of realization as a human being.
Traditionally it was owning a boat.
I see. So it sounds like the issue was one of timing, where a bunch of converted HTTP/1.1 requests all arrived at your application at the exact same instant.

Did the ALB open a new TCP connection for each request, or does it use a pool of connections?
Fair reading, but not my interpretation - I believe the GP was referencing using 75% tofu and 25% in the preparation of dishes, not in the preparation of the tofu itself.
The article highlights how trying to make money can quickly and thoroughly poison your hobby. The golden quote:

> “Hmm…I want to write a book. I would really love to write a sappy romance novel because I think they’re so fun to write. But I need to turn it into profit, so I should do market research and see what’s trending and build off that. Self-help is big, let’s try to focus on that, even though I personally hate self-help books.”

Note the change. "I really want to write a romance novel. I did market research. Self-help sells better. I'll write self-help then."

Following this thinking, you'll end up doing something you hate (and probably produce a barely sellable garbage). Hobby is about a thing ("I want to write a romance novel"). Making money is about money, and the thing is only means to an end ("I'll write whatever sells best, and maybe I should reconsider whether I can do something else than writing for even more money.").

I'd argue that even in professional life, this kind of thinking taken to the extreme is poison, and part of what ruins our societies and the planet. That is, companies which are really indifferent to what they're doing, and only focused on whether they can make money on it.

(One could argue that this is how market economy is supposed to work - don't think for yourself, don't feel for yourself, just do what the Market tells you to. We can see both good and bad consequences of that thinking all around us.)
That would be more close to The Matrix.
Or, hell, America today.

There is both a boring-common-unobserved case where children are expected to contribute to the household, and the less common but higher profile case where parents have written off their own chances of "making it big" and begin managing their children full time, most visibly in sports or acting/music.
I just ask myself if something will make me happy, maybe I need to grow up and monetize that.

“Re-Urbanism” as a Strategy for the Revitalization of Declining Cities
Children are extremely taxing on time. If both parents work, even more so. It's harder to go out (so now you have to cook most nights) the amount of laundry you have to do doubles or quadrouples. Then there's trying to teach your kids the skills they need to be competitive in a globalized society. Combined with a full time job, you have zero time left over for things you WANT to do, and more than likely you're leaving some things you HAVE to do on the table too.

To me, side projects are probably a rent seeking activity. If I can find 20 minutes here, and there, and turn it into something that generates cash... maybe... just maybe... I can use that to buy some time.. the thing I cherish the most.
I wonder how is this different than the US's system where even as a tourist I have to give them my biometrics so they can store it in their big database.

> Because they obviously had video of the real thief and there is no excuse that they could not have compared the results of the two

I've probably missed something in the article but where does it say anything about them having pictures of the wrongly accused that were supplied to the police? The police had an arrest warrant -with the wrong* picture- on it. They didn't have an arrest warrant with -his- picture on it.

* wrong as in it was the thief, not the person the police actually (wrongly) arrested.
I tried pretty much every video editor on Linux.

If you're editing screencast style videos (ie. not live video) kdenlive is pretty much as good as it gets on Linux but it's still waaaaaaaaay behind video editors available on Windows and Mac such as Camtasia. So much in fact that if video editing is an important aspect of what you do, it might not be worth switching to Linux over this alone.
I think there is a sweet spot to that kind of thinking; start projects for fun, but keep profit in mind and relax the strict rules of starting a project, so making money becomes a nice bonus, but you can do it anyway.
So something like this: start something if it MIGTH make money, work on it until you get bored or turns out it cannot. Move on to the next project. This way you can have fun AND profit ^.^
Told that on Reddit few days ago. 70yo neighbor asked me to fix her laptop antivirus[0]. The thing was sluggish. I came back the following day (unsollicited) to show her a live linux so she can see her laptop full speed (no hdd or os cruft). When i left she asked me how much i wanted.

Social tissue is an odd beast. Friendliness is fragile and people dont like freebies. Also i suspect some Stockholm syndrom, since every aftersales ask a lot, they assume anything must cost a ton.

I think the part that's thought of as 'crazy', isn't that it's all done as charity, it's that it's the only thing supporting it. Having an idea or project that can do some social good or meet some demand is great, but it's even better when that thing can sustain itself. It might,for a time, work on charity, but akin to the 'teach a man to fish' proverb - it's better something can meet it's own requirements than expecting to feed that fire for x years or Eg. to feed / find someone to feed a person for the next x years.

Don't get me wrong - All power to you, donating your time effort and other resources to things you believe to be a worthy cause is what people should be doing. But some of that effort may be wisely spent on finding ways to monetize those actions and set it up to carry its own weight.
I started work in IT in 1990. I do remember more female programmers at the time. (Of all pay grades, some senior programmers.)

At the same time, I believe the female mind thinks differently than the male mind. This is confirmed several times daily as I interact with my dear wife. (This is not to say that either brain is superior for programming. I don't believe this is true. They are just different.)

Highways are relatively easy (always the first target for almost any type of driving assist). And highways account for large amounts of the distance people drive. Maybe not for the time spent driving though.

If you can do full self-driving on highways and similar roads, you can start shouting about full self-driving on high percentages of distance driven.
