The situations aren't quite comparable. But yeah. I imagine if there were an "all content" streaming channel for $100-$200/month, a lot of people would think that was outrageous pricing because they want to watch so little of that content.

Personally, I'd probably be happier watching a lot of content with a la carte pricing but TV shows in particular seem to be at something of a premium with that model. (Assuming they're available.)
I have a couple "HHKB" layout boards which do that. It is quite helpful!

What I have found even more useful is triggering a "layer" when Caps Lock is held down, which turns H, J, K, & I into an arrow cluster; U & O into Page Up / Down; and P & ; into Home / End. To toggle regular Caps Lock, I just activate the layer and then hit A. It's a big time saver! :)

How can you have an entire article on Medicare negotiating with drug manufacturers without using the word "monopsony?"[1] Is it simple ignorance or deliberate deception?

> The negotiation issue has a tortuous history. When Medicare was expanded to cover prescription drugs in 2003, it became the single-biggest buyer of medicines in the U.S. But while other federal agencies, such as the Department of Veterans Affairs, can use their market clout to seek better deals on drug prices, Congress prohibited Medicare from doing so. Instead, the scores of private insurance providers that offer Medicare plans are left to negotiate individually with drugmakers, with significantly less power.

The idea that giant insurers like Cigna don't have sufficient "market clout" to negotiate on even footing with drug companies is laughable. Medicare would not just have "market clout"--it would control so much of drug purchasing that it would have monopsony power to drive drug prices below the efficient level.

It's a very simple proposal. "Use Medicare's monopsony power to drive drug prices artificially low." Maybe it's even a desirable policy outcome. Trade future development for cheaper drugs now. But it's intellectually dishonest to talk about it without really talking about what it means, without using the relevant concepts and terminology. It obscures what is fundamentally a simple economic tradeoff (indeed, it obliterates the notion that there even is a trade off).

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monopsony

> Monopsony power exists when one buyer faces little competition from other buyers for that labor or good, so they are able to set wages and prices for the labor or goods they are buying at a level lower than would be the case in a competitive market.
Assuming something in the trusted side of the network chain has a persistent clock or verified time then this issue could be avoided. For things that connect directly to untrusted networks e.g. public cellular internet the only solution I can see is using devices with a persistent clock themselves.
>The problem being you still can't just subscribe to one show (or just buy it outright).

You can in some cases though the pricing tends to be relatively high compared to streaming unless you really only want to watch a show or two.

Our world is getting bigger which means we are exposed to more and more cultures each day. Used to be (states) we had National Geographic magazine for other cultures and that moved onto TV shows.

Then the internet came. Now we can find it real time. Imagine it and it may exist, find things you never imagined and they do exist.

All comes down to all us being better for it all. Think of how much exposure that all the conflicts bring about as we learn about people we would have only had a by line about. Now we get video of who they are, how they live, what they like to do.

I think the ASF, being non-copyleft, is much less ideological than you're thinking. They're big on having rules to foster healthy community and community based decisions, but the license is really just a laissez faire BSD-ish license with some particular edge cases addressed. It's open-source but flexible and friendly to businesses with hybrid models. Something like GitHub that promotes input from people involved with other projects to participate is not a surprising move for them at all.

You need a purpose and a routine. Why do you want to be successful ? What's your definition of success ? Is it something you really want / or is it pushed by friends / social media / internal representation of success ?

> See others succeed, get motivated a bit more

It sounds very dumb but focus on the journey, not on the destination. I got fit when I started to enjoy going to the gym (took 1+ year). I didn't like sport and I had a mental image of what a gym guy was, I couldn't identify to that image. Now I'm 5 years in, go bouldering, running and at the gym every single week, it doesn't feel like success and I still don't identify as a fit/gym guy.

Once it's part of your daily/weekly routine you don't need motivation, you do these things because you're hard wired to. It takes years, but one day you'll wake up and think "damn, I'm fit / good a guitar / glad I sticked to my business idea for the last 5 years / &c."

Also keep in mind that success isn't a fixed point, it's an endless ladder, each step being your next definition of success. You can be successful at many things but if you don't take the time to reflect on them you'll feel like a constant failure.

> I see folks who are disciplined, are ruthless executors, are self-motivated

Linus Media Group have a small render farm, and don't render on any ultrabook, let alone Apples. Its not like they don't know there isn't really the expectation to be able to do that a full speed.

I can completely understand why Apple have gone for the 'provide burst capacity, but keep quiet for as long as possible' route. If you looking to tilt absolutely max performance out of a piece of silicon you just don't buy in that form factor. Linus misunderstands the market, not Apple.

This has been avoided in the phone because Apple are not constrained by what Intel hand them in that space. Maybe things will change with an ARM MBP?

There are always outliers, but very few people would watch $100-200 "worth" of content. Netflix is basically a walled off Spotify, where your $10-15 goes to whatever shows you watch because the rest get cancelled if they can't sustain a critical number of subscribers.

But I want more than just the Netflix-content, but let's say I can only reasonably watch $30-50 "worth" of content each month, so give me access to everything and allocate my subscription accordlingly, sort of like Spotify.
> It seems boys can, they simply don't

Society and entourage treats a boy doing this far worse than it would a girl doing it. I can only imagine the kind of bullying I would have opened myself up to by doing this in my childhood (say at 10+ years old). I remember some of my friends being laughed at by their own parents for playing "girlish" games. Bullies were far less forgiving.

It's a good case study to understand why many women avoid certain fields not because they're not up to it but because society "guides" them another way.

I wrote an essay about this topic a couple months ago that you might find applicable https://www.amplenote.com/blog/what_makes_long_term_personal...

The essay describes exactly half of the what has helped me, which is to create processes that make it a little bit easier to procrastinate on long-term goals and then pick them up again later. But the other half, which sounds especially applicable to your situation, is to pick a goal that will continue to be worth pursuing. This is much harder than most people expect.

A few years ago I started a "goal of the month" list with some friends. In January, we picked 12 goals we'd pursue during the year. For the first few months, it was gravy -- everyone completed their goal and had a satisfying summary ("I did this, I learned this") they shared with the group afterwards. But, around the 6th month, the failures began. Between the 9-12th months, our cumulative success rate was lower than 50%. It was mystifying, because everyone had purported to spend hours of time carefully choosing their 12 goals in January.

In my case, I tried to pick easy goals for month 9-12. For November, I picked the goal "bowl a 200" because what could be more fun or easy than going bowling (though I've never bowled above 150, so there was a hill to climb). Still, by the time 11 months passed, there had developed 100 things that were more interesting to me than bowling a 200. I willed myself to go bowling one time that month, and scored 125. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We tweaked the rules for the list the following year so you set 12 months worth of goals, but you could substitute a goal if your original choice was no longer interesting. Again, by the 9th month, everybody was substituting like crazy. The goals list experience taught me that my friends and I are woefully bad at choosing goals that will still be interesting to us 6+ months in the future.

Fast forward to today, and I've been working on Linux touchpad drivers for about two years now (e.g., https://bill.harding.blog/2019/03/25/linux-touchpad-like-a-m...). My "success" on this project has been made possible because I have a good system to allow myself to procrastinate, and because every time I use my Linux laptop, I continue to hate how the touchpad works. I am forced to face that unpleasantness over and over again, with no escape. So in this case, there is a goal that has remained important to me because it involves a part of my life that remains constant, and remains frustrating.

Which is to say, if you can find a problem that is going to continue to eat away at you for years, I think you're barking up the right tree. If your goal is one of whimsy or interest, your best bet is to scope your solution so it can be completed in 6 months or less, because chances are your human interest will be somewhere else past that point.
The funny thing about compilers is that one architecture has been established as the dominant architecture (the one described here) for probably the past 50 years. Almost without exception, every compiler is structured just about exactly the same. If you're interested in an alternative architecture, it's worth reading up about Nanopass compilers. While largely the same basic ideas, Nanopass tries to distill each discrete action into its own pass -- think of it like composing a bunch of programs using shell pipes. So rather than just Frontend=>Middle End=>Backend you end up with something like Lex=>Parse=>Remove Lambdas=>Remove Loops=>Remove Conditionals=>SSA=>Allocate Registers=>Eliminate Dead Code=>.....

For whom? I think anyone who'd been near an operating helicopter and thought "gee, I need a really big fan once in a while" would've eventually put two and two together.

> * there are better ways to keep cherries dry, and that rain showers aren’t the only thing water log a cherry tree, right?*

Think about the plus sides- the grower doesn't have to buy a bunch of fans, deal with maintenance, or do any other number of things, and the helicopter pilot gets "guaranteed income" (though, like all growing is, that depends a lot upon the season), flying hours, and can so other things in the waiting time. Maria, the author of the blog post, mentions elsewhere that she makes jewelry in her waiting time, which she can then sell or do whatever with.

" There was a time, not that long ago, when college students were encouraged to expand their minds further."

It would be helpful if Mr Glynn put a closer bracket of dates around this. While trying to figure out if this statement is true, I came across the Wikipedia page on the "Free Speech Movement" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Speech_Movement). "Students insisted that the university administration lift the ban of on-campus political activities and acknowledge the students' right to free speech and academic freedom.". I guess "not too long ago" was after 1965, because apparently before that, it was common for college campuses to ban political speech and activity. I assume that UCB was, as always, a fore-runner, and that most campuses had such bans until much later.

I think we can all agree that "not too long ago" means some time before 2008, when Obama was elected. So we can bracket this utopia of free speech to between 1965 - 2008. Before 1965, it appears that it was typical to ban all political speech. With that bracket in mind, ask yourself if Mr Glynn's essay makes any sense at all, or if it's an exercise in wishful thinking.

I'm eager for evidence to tighten these brackets further. I vaguely recall that some campuses were considered bastions of conservatism on into the 1960s, but I can't find any references easily. I'd love to see something about that.
