- Avoid all screens / blue light at least a half hour before bedtime

- No phones in the bedroom

- Eliminate light sources in the bedroom.. blackout curtains help a lot.

- No coffee after 2pm

- Lessen your daily stress as much as possible. (everyone is different so this is tough to generalize)

.. one thing that also really seems to help is listening to something while falling asleep. especially, and probably most importantly, something that you've already listened to many times before.

i'm a very light sleeper, and i thought this would never work for me, but it totally does.

I know friends that fall asleep with episodes of futurama or the office playing in the background. I usually choose foreign language audio books that I've listened to many times.

The listening takes your mind off whatever is keeping you awake, and the fact that you've listened to it many times before keeps you from needing to pay active attention.

These days I don't even set my audible sleep timer for more than 15 minutes.

- Last tip is to make sure you have a routine. If you're not going to bed and waking up at the same time every day, it's difficult to develop a rhythm that your body will adjust to.
Didn't that also involve lying to federal investigators?

> In some sense, the reals are the most naive number system. Just start with the natural numbers, and allow every sensible opperation.

It is simple only in retrospect. It took a few millennia for mankind to reach the definition of the reals. Meanwhile, Archimedes, Euclid, Pythagoras, al-Kwarizmi, Newton, Fermat, Gauss, Euler, Jacobi, Newton, Galois, Bernoulli, Laplace, Lagrange, Fourier did quite a lot of things (which are very relevant for all fields of math today) without even knowing the definition of limit!
Currently, quite poorly.

I find that I don't get tired until 4-5am (pretty sure my sleep schedule is messed up). Since I work remote I can either work late, or I get up early with less sleep.

I previously tried to use melatonin at night, but I've been taking it less since I'm not sure if it's helping or not.
Under the radar. Without visibility.

How does it come as a surprise when things that were only recognized as having gone on underneath layer after layer of technical jargon are finally brought to general public awareness?

You don't get in trouble for doing things, you get in trouble for getting caught doing them. It's been a long time in coming, but awareness is finally starting to hit tipping points in meaningful ways.
I hope the time is soon that we have some way of detecting and, hopefully, fixing generic abberations like this in embryos (or even among those diagnosed when they are older), anyone having to endure this is truly heartbreaking.
Lisp isn't purely functional.

There are a bunch of books which explain how to write Lisp compilers. There are a bunch of different strategies.

> Does it create stack frames and do calls when recursing

That's what a typical Lisp might do. It might also change the stack frame and just jump to a function...

It's also relatively easy to check out, since Common Lisp has a built-in disassembler. One can take an implementation, compile a function and see the generated code. Just call the function DISASSEMBLE with a function object...

Giving a couple of decade-old examples doesn’t show that Apple is “just as guilty.” Apple has two toolkits: Carbon, a legacy framework for transitioning from MacOS classic, and Cocoa. Microsoft has releases a new toolkit/look-and-feel basically every other year. (Win32, WPF, Metro, UWP, etc.) And unlike Carbon, which is depreciated, Win32 is in active use by new apps and keeps getting new features.
Canada's Digital Charter: Trust in a Digital World
Sometimes I think that offensive work is always prioritized ovee defensive work. And then execs and stakeholders think when the code is a mess and a simple change takes a day and a half it's the developers fault. And it's difficult to say the least to convince stakeholders to defer a feature for a little bit of refactoring.

This why I think it might be useful to allow the stakeholders and pms to decide the % of time spent on defensive work instead of what defensive work to do. And then you have a specific metric on technical debt(we budgeted 30% for defensive work and we've only spent 10% that's a 1000hrs of technical debt)
Something to specifically point to when a stakeholder asks why is this taking so long or why is the application buggy. And ideally this caused a company wide increase in the allotted time for defensive work.

Bonus:It will also give developers who like working on clean projects a number to ask when being hired.

Why We Do Code Review
Went exactly the same route a few weeks ago deciding between a new macbook pro or something else and went for the P1. Had some troubles with the UEFI due to outdated firmware (be sure to update that first thing) and other than that, I'm quite happy with the results. Battery life could be better, the fans are indeed more aggressive and I miss some of the touch gestures (swipe for browsing) that I didn't yet get to set up. My previous device was a late '14 MBP and that still works fine but is getting slow and quite hot.
A huge portion of the profits China has obtained from becoming America's manufacturing base has gone directly back to America in the form of US bond purchases. This has been the case going back to its inception into the WTO in 2001 [1, ex. 6]. The American economy, and thus its middle class, have directly benefitted from this in the form of greater and cheaper capital liquidity.

In addition, this deficit you speak of (that has been characterized by Trump as "stealing" from America, a laughable notion), actually shrinks to almost nothing when adjusted for US goods sold in China [1, ex.16, 17]. This is comparing four categories of goods and services exchanged between the US and China (1: services sold through subsidiaries, 2: services imports, 3: goods through subsidiaries and 4: goods through trade). This is a much more complete and honest comparison. Trump has for some reason decided to only focus on the last point (goods sold through trade).

The US sells 67B worth of services to China through subsidiaries, 56B of services imports, 213B of goods through subsidiaries and 112B of goods through trade. In other words, adjusted for U.S sales of goods and services in China, the trade deficit actually amounts to a U.S _surplus_ of something in the ballpark 20B a year.

Where is the stealing? Where is the zero-sum "wealth transfer"?

Huawei had a pretty bad track record publishing their modified Linux kernel sources. They got better in recent years and created https://consumer.huawei.com/en/opensource/detail/?siteCode=w... but many older devices aren't listed.

I think they'll be more careful to comply with open-source licenses in the future, but there's precedent to show that they don't care all that much if they can get away with it.

> If you spend all your time on them, people perceive your product as holding still.

This is precisely what bothers me about the vast majority of software out there. It's hard to find software that doesn't suffer from what I call, for lack of a better name, "forced evolution": the devs keep fiddling with the UI and adding new features of dubious usefulness. Meanwhile, the quality slowly, but surely deteriorates: the software gets bloated, runs slower, becomes harder to use, etc.
It's worth noting that Bowling Alone was published in 2000, and grew out of a magazine article Putnam wrote in 1995. So this is a problem that's been slowly growing for a long time now.

I think the path toward optimizing software for (a) maintainability (b) completeness and (c) bug-free are not necessarily mutually exclusive. I think in general software is fighting all of these battles simultaneously. And so by definition software that is incomplete (ie. without all the features) has the possibility (probability?) of being buggy. Otherwise if it's complete why add features?

Given what you knew at the time you created a definition, and per that definition you could have written 100% maintainable 100% bug-free 100% complete code. It's in uncovering your lack of/ incomplete understanding of your problem that you may need to go back in to that code. Even though at the time it was considered 100% bug-free, complete, and maintainable.
> It should be about ability and topics.

I was with the author until the UX part. Why does everything have to boil down to color themes and padding? I don't see why you need to focus on this for a software program. It should be about correctness and performance.
That's a... strange thing to "totally vehemently disagree" with.

For one, it's not an option for everyone, particularly the less able bodied. But more importantly, being the weak link in sports team can actually be a very isolating and lonely experience. Even if it's a casual/intramural setting, if you suck at the sport and are actively causing your team to lose, you will more than likely not have a good time and will not feel more connected to people, even if they make a good faith effort to make you feel welcome and included despite you being a detriment to the team.

Source: I joined a casual sports team to be less lonely, and ended up feeling socially worse off for it. Not saying that will be everyones experience, but I would "totally vehemently disagree" that it's an unequivocally better option than volunteering.
This isn't new, it's actually common knowledge - it's been this way for years, since its actual inception.
I've had several experiences where static typing forced my hand into making a software design decision which I later regretted.

Many real-world entities don't have a fixed set of characteristics/properties; instead, they have fluid characteristics that can change over time.

Trying to model those entities using static types which have a fixed/static set of properties is a bad idea.

For example, in nature, a tadpole might grow arms and legs and become a frog. Trying to represent a single entity using two different classes 'Tadpole' and 'Frog' doesn't always work... What type is the creature if it's exactly halfway between being a Tadpole and a Frog? Do you keep inventing new discrete types to keep re-categorizing the creature as it grows or do you acknowledge that the exact type of this creature cannot be expressed discretely but that it lies on a continuum?

Rural voters vote in their interest, which is more closely aligned to the Republican party.

Both parties appease their billion dollar donors and both take part in propaganda.

The Democratic Party is not a party of saints, in many cases they can be worse. Both have their flaws, but at the end of the day you have to choose between the two.
Bay Area politics are much more nuanced than that.

For example, there's always been a strong Libertarian community in the larger Tech community. And over the last couple years a lot of online Libertarian communities have shifted to more right (and far-right) ideology.

There's also a strong Leftist community in the Bay Area, arguably much stronger than the rest of the country. This shouldn't be forgotten. You're way more likely to meet a Communist at a bar in SF than most parts of this country.

There's a strong "liberal" community in the Bay Area, these people will support liberal social issues (Gay/Trans inclusion, virulently anti-Trump, supporting of Muslims and other oppressed communities, reigning in the banks, etc.). But, a lot of these people also suffer from the Not-In-My-Backyard syndrome and will balk at modest reforms to Schooling or Housing Policy.

There's also Reagan Republicans, Antifacists, Anarchists, and people who aren't checked into Politics at all.

I'm not saying everyone in the Bay Area fits into one of these groups or even that my characterizations of these groups are accurate. These groups aren't monoliths.

I would just encourage you to not let your heart get broken, things can get better. The Bay Area is still very Progressive. Volunteer for a Progressive Campaign, DSA, or some other progressive organization and I think you'll get your hope back!

> Is there some sort of checksum for translations?

Obviously not, no translator would have a job!

You only get matching output if you get a matching input, that's a defining property of a checksum.

If you could get matching input, i.e. translated texts from different sources, that would mean that not only is translation a completely solved problem, but also that the source and target language were equivalently expressive and neither ambiguous, every word having a 1:1 mapping.

That is, they must be the same language, just at most differently different represented.

Sure, but if you had to winnow all of the world's (or just US's) best music down to only 20 CDs, do you really need to include two Beatles albums and Simon and Garfunkel ones? Is Faith Hill really the best you can do for country?

I would ditch those three and consider replacing them with:

* Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison

* Michael Jackson - Thriller

* Wu Tang Clan - Enter The Wu Tang

Some punk and metal representation would be good too. And, honestly, Play hasn't held up well over the years. If you want something more representative or influential, maybe Orbital's brown album or Underworld's dubnobywithmyheadman.

Your post made me want to check the rules of the "particule" in French [1], with regard to French names, as in: Charles de Gaulle, Jean de La Fontaine or Armand Jean du Plessis de Richelieu.

Turns out, capitalization depends on the grammatical construct. It's always capitalized at the beginning of a sentence, or to avoid ambiguity as in "Les mémoires de De Sèze". It's never capitalized when writing the full name (Jean de La Fontaine). In other constructs, it's complicated, and quite subjective...

Foreign names with particules follow the rules of the country of origin.

I did web dev. Don't see how Linux would help me.
Also an introvert and they do.

Fortunately my partner is also an introvert so when we feel like been sociable we can be but the rest of our time is spent with her sat reading while I swear quietly at a computer.

I’d never really understood he phrase comfortable silence but it’s refreshing to be together but to be able to do our own thing.

I’m unusual for an introvert in that I worked sales for a couple of years so I can fake gregarious well if I need to but I find it draining.
"Imagine a dark forest at night. It’s deathly quiet. Nothing moves. Nothing stirs. This could lead one to assume that the forest is devoid of life. But of course, it’s not. The dark forest is full of life. It’s quiet because night is when the predators come out. To survive, the animals stay silent."

Forests aren't deathly quiet at night. Insects, reptiles and many birds and canines are very loud at night; the forest at night in summer is positively raucous with noise. No one that can hear ever suspects the forest is devoid of life at night.

This is the sort of ignorance that can only manifest in a strictly urbanite writer. The rest of the story exhibits more of the same group-thinky urbanite mentality.

The traditional gathering places of the Internet are fracturing. Moral panic has gripped the self righteous at the top of mighty Internet platforms and, like all such outraged grandees of the past, they've resorted to the ban hammer. So new platforms emerge to capture the deplatformed.

Thankfully the emergence of such alternatives is still possible in some nations.
It prints fine on my non-enclosed delta. My printer isn't anything special, it's just, like you said, water absorption by the filament is an issue if it's left out in the open.

The key is simply to keep the filament in a drybox before use. It doesn't need to be anything fancy- I use a 5-gallon Home Depot bucket, a small jar of Damp Rid (Calcium Chloride), and a seedling heater mat to keep things warm. It works great.
I think it might be better if the post office went totally to using robots. I've heard too many stories first hand about its toxic culture.

There was a woman who worked in Lansing, Michigan sorting mail. She worked in the back, never had an contact with customers. Every Halloween she'd wear a different costume to work. Three years straight she'd get disciplined for it.

Local TV asked if the employees she worked alongside had a problem with it but they didn't. Only management had a problem with her wearing a costume every Halloween. She said they are determined to stamp out all individuality in the employees. What a horrible place to work.
Conversely, high school was a great time for some people as they had friends and support, while it was the worst time of other peoples lives. There are many people who were forced out of churches or treated poorly and will never go back.

Sometimes you're willing to have no safety guarantees but also not have to deal with paypal etc. Send a small tip to a content creator, pay content creators in small amounts in a patreon-like setting without having to deal with rules against content payment processors don't like (I saw recently this was being launched but I forget the name), lots of use cases.
Your last paragraph is very similar to what I've read is going on in the European Union with the Euro. (I don't remember what book I read it in)

Basically their argument was that it works in America because the federal government is strong enough to redistribute wealth to places that can't keep up. In Europe the federal government is weak, so the southern countries have an economy they can't keep up with.

I don't remember the specifics, but that was the gist of it.
This person's Google account is likely still vulnerable to the attacker and if they used chrome password sync all of their other accounts are also likely owned. You can recover a google account if you know some basic details such as a previously used password or the creation date of an account.

Retaliating against Apple would spook governments of other countries that are still planning to proceed with Huawei's 5G equipment. I think Huawei is betting that this is more political theater from Trump, and can be resolved with a token gesture that lets the Pres declare the outcome as a win for him personally.
I guess my area...(the 2nd biggest AM market in the country) didn't get the memo. ClearChannel or whatever its called now, not exactly a bit player, broke up a popular block of syndicated rightwing programming in favor of a slew of crappy local shows. I'm not sure the move was entirely financially motivated, my gut feeling is that this didn't help improve the numbers. Beforehand they'd been constantly trying and failing to insert in leftwing hosts. And they're now heavily advertising starting up a entire LGBT focused station, that nobody was exactly clamoring for.
I think the crux of this issue is what is or is not "my" data.

I think that any data that is generated as a result of my actions, or by machines that I own, is my data for all intents and purposes.

I understand that you disagree with that. That's entirely fair, and I'm not trying to change your thinking on this. What I'm trying to understand is on what basis you are deciding what is or is not my data.
