I had trouble with it at first, too.

At first, I even had trouble with the act alone, but I do remember doing silly things as a kid because they were fun, so that's understandable, even if they look silly doing it. I certainly looked silly a lot as a kid.

Then, my issue was that there are apparently whole competitions as if this were a real sport. But then I realized that there's no reason it can't be. We have all kinds of sports that require things that ultimately look like dancing... And that's basically what this is, in the end. Dancing with certain other rules.

I also stopped and considered it compared to LARPing. I mean, they're play-acting a scenario and using actual physical skills and routines. It's actually probably a lot more educational than a lot of things they could be playing instead.

But in the end, I'm getting old and new things are making me feel uneasy increasingly more often.

This...is my life. Not necessarily finding stuff on HN and pursuing them, but just projects in general.

Here's how I deal with that:

I don't start a project for a while, I think about how I'm going to implement it in pretty good detail in my head.

Then, I move on to a project I've already started, or a new idea.

After a few days/weeks/months, I'll cycle back, order parts if it's hardware, or scaffold out an application, or start writing the big picture idea of a podcast. (I've been remodeling my house, and writing a podcast for 2 years, work still continues, but I bounce between them.)

Once I have the parts/materials/scaffolding, I bounce between projects usually dedicating days to weeks on them, until I get bored or frustrated.

I've been doing this since I was a kid. I've started two businesses, written a few Android apps, I've remodeled half my house (so far, windows, drywall, and insulation are happening next week) in the past 2 years.

There are 3 projects I've been toying in my head with for a few years that I've been struggling to figure out how to start. Fully automated made to order vitamins, a backpack that has the features I want, and a "life logging" app that doesn't suck. I'd be very happy if someone else made those, I don't care about the money from them, they are things I want to exist in the world.

The made to order vitamins, costly and risky to start. The backpack I've attempted and broke the shit out of a sewing machine. The life logging app Ive started like 3 times, first on Android, then on Django, now I'm leaning towards serverless with react native...but the scaffolding for what I want is complicated enough where it's overwhelming to think about if I'm implementing it right for scaling and expandability.

Either way, the point is, I cycle through projects, making sure I leave them in a state where I know what needs to be done next. Having 2-3 outside of work projects and 2-3 work projects keeps me busy and just disorderly enough where I don't get bored and if I get frustrated, I can just switch what I'm working on.

The key is, the projects have to be different enough where it doesn't feel like you are going back to the same grind. Programming, construction, design, and podcasting are very different from one another. I'm not an expert in anything really, but I can run a software team, look at the big picture, find pitfalls, and I'm always down to get my hands dirty.

Another trick I've used that hasn't worked as well as I'd hope but does work to some extent is, tell others what you are working on, ask them their opinion, and tell them to get on your ass about it. Some friends do this well, most don't, it's not their responsibility to get on your ass, that's your job...but if you have it in the back of your mind that someone might ask about project X, you'd better have updates.

TLDR: multi-tasking at a larger scale.
No. I believe I’ve described the behaviors that I suspected dawhizkid was referring to when using the SJW label. There are many behaviors that have many labels. If you want to substitute SJWism for something else you may, but it happens to be that people are increasingly associating this collection of behaviors with that term now. I’m not one to battle too hard with the English language when it doesn’t seem necessary (the SJW term has always been pejorative in one way or another so it’s hardly one to protect).

OK maybe that's my problem, I'm browsing solely through the audible app where I do see price difference, but I've never seen discounts signaled as such. Also I'm usually racing to spend credits before they expire, so price is less of a factor.

Nice effort.

So being conservative is necessary for larger organizations.

That paper makes a good case against its own conclusion, and little case for it. Some choice quotes:

"there are endless examples of this type of “evergreening"

"With a surprisingly large number of expensive “evergreened” drugs, one need look no further than the person in the mirror (and his or her doctor) if one wishes to avoid paying a much higher price for essentially the same medicine."

"Pharmaceutical companies, it seems, have been very successful in convincing consumers and doctors that the newer version is worth the extra cost."

The author is suggesting that there's no problem because consumers can in theory avoid the problem, but as he points out, they don't. Evergreening is a very prevalent and effective strategy to separate patients from their money.
This is why I believe that plug-in hybrids will last much longer than people expect. I know most techno-geeks think that PHEVs (Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicles) are "stop-gap" technologies.... but they solve the range problem AND solve the "batteries are heavy" problem very elegantly.

Lets be frank: Li-Ion batteries may have gotten dramatically lighter, but they're no where close to how light gasoline is. PHEVs allow gasoline engines to operate at their optimal power-generation band as a gasoline generator (optimizing your gas milage), while also using standard electric connections to charge on a daily basis.

So you don't need many Li-Ion batteries for PHEVs (lighter car, cheaper to make). You still get the flat torque band of EVs, and if you manage to charge your vehicle within 50-miles, you won't use any gasoline either.

In the long term, gas stations will grow less profitable as electricity becomes sufficient for 80+% of driving cases. But it seems more sustainable to downscale gas stations in the USA rather than to build out a supercharging network.

--------------

Pure-electric high performance cars like Model S will be fun toys for those who can afford it. But PHEVs are the ones that seem to make financial sense for the majority of consumers. Be it the Prius Prime, Chevy Volt, or Honda Clarity.

Everyone is trying to get me to defend mailing lists. I have no idea why. I haven't said anything about them. In fact, I hate mailing lists.
It's likely you're missing why they're using work email: It's a way to broadcast and promote the concerns to people who aren't already part of their organized action. From what I've read, there's an incredibly large number of not-work-related email lists internally at Google, they have somewhat of their own private little Internet world there.

So "organizing" with their work email wasn't about "the organizers talking to each other", it was about getting people to join the Walkout.
Can anyone think of a reason the organizers would have decided to use workplace email for this?

So, I'm curious where this narrative comes from, because I first met "social justice warrior"s in the 90's and they where very much claiming that brand. I mean, they where made fun of but that seemed to validate the "warrior" part in their mind. Now it seems the brand is being dropped but, not because it was never the brand in the first place.

Edit: for context I don't think of the people who got the military work stopped as Social justice warriors. This may be because I tend to avoid the term. I'm still curious about this dropping of the brand thing though.

In what way was that code editor malicious? Did it allow i.e. creating your own games, modifying other games etc? I don't think so, since I'd expect apps on such platforms to be totally sandboxed.

Its less cost cutting and more about logistics. You can't buy Mom & Pop created chocolate for 60k Bay area employees spread across 100 offices. We'd be consuming > 100% their supply. Most of the changes are around streamlining our logistics in the bay area to single suppliers.

As for w-street's changes, its not all negative. E.g.

People like Ruth have tought many teams in google to be more frugal.
My wife passed away early (36) three years ago today.

For a few months, I used her Facebook account to keep in touch with friends and family worldwide about the service, memorials, and the like. At the time, I had quit Facebook myself 3-4 years prior. This was very handy for all of this news dissemination, but then I used Facebook's "memorialize a person" feature to shut down the account for good. This changes the user's name to "Remembering ____ ____", disallows future login or comments on their posts, but leaves all the other content up. I also pulled an archive of everything (especially photos) before doing this.

It's honestly something I very rarely think about, probably mostly because I've disavowed Facebook for years now. But I appreciate that Facebook provided this concrete functionality. I still see her name pop up on other social networks on a regular basis (e.g. you and ____ both know ____).
Honestly, the only time ios has broken backwards compatibility is with 32->64 bit. And—not to minimize that, that is quite major, but that's pretty much the only time it's happened.
I always assumed it’s because the workers are pretty well off and have a lot to lose. Tech workers are mostly treated and paid well, so even if one believes unions are great, there isn’t much to push them to create one for themselves.

> Not every starter is a finisher, and not every finisher is a starter, and not every finisher is a good maintainer, either. They're different things.

Seeing the number of responses in agreement is great, but then I think a bit and have a number of feelings about the fact that this needs to be pointed out. Isn't this obvious from basic psychology, management, sports, life experience, etc.?

It's unusual to find someone who has all elements in balance. They might seem in balance, but often you can't see how productive people really are in lots of cases. They may seem like they can churn out quality personal projects ad nauseum, but you don't know what's painful, what takes a disproportionate amount of time, what needed to redone, what drove anxiety, and many other things.

For the people who seem to have this balance, they may push through extreme toil, create undesirable consequences for others, etc. My advice would be to consider whether you should endeavour to be a "ruthless executor" because that might not be what you should do. Perhaps the OP should actually be spending time reading, taking photos, or some other activity to generate energy to drive forward projects that are truly important.

C is the lingra franca of programming. By writing wlroots in C, we make it easy for a half dozen projects to make bindings to other programming languages. Rust is the only one that seems to have failed, and it's not surprising given the constraints of the language.

wlroots brings together over a dozen different libraries and interfaces which are implemented in C. You'd have to repeat this process a dozen times over, running into the same problems which caused Timidger to abandon wlroots-rs, only more so. And for what? wlroots works great and didn't require shaving a thosuand yaks.
I'm the founder of http://handwrite.io, which allows you to use your own real handwriting to send out cards in about 30 seconds a card. Our robots use real pen and paper to write in your actual handwriting.

> Google (and every company for that matter) should try a new stance...

The "stance" you describe is not a new stance at all. It is a very old one-- as old as working-for-the-man itself.

Perhaps it was pipe dream to actually believe the "don't be evil" pledge?

Whatever the case, the outrage of the dissents does seem cloyingly naive and I find it difficult to feel sorry for them. Maybe it's time for people to learn that "mega-corps" aren't exactly the best place for idealists after all.

It might be a good thing for google to shed some talent to the wind and see what comes of it. Who knows, it might lower housing cost and seed many more start-ups and small businesses with new people.

> so he's not getting ditched unless he wants to be ditched

I believe he can be removed from his executive role by a court if he's found guilty of a crime (which I believe is likely in the next few years).

I'm not sure about his ownership of the company, but I think a court could order him to transfer supervoting shares as part of a penalty.

But then that begs the question of whether the human individual, Mark Zuckerberg, still owns those shares. They may be in some kind of trust that he can never lose control over.
wlroots is generally highly regarded in the Wayland community, both in terms of technical design and code quality. There's a reason that every Wayland project which started since wlroots has used wlroots, and those who didn't at first eventually rewrote their code to use wlroots.
