> but we often define our value or our self esteem by success at work.

That's amusing for me to hear. Because I'm very successful at work, but have self-esteem issues because I don't define my value/self-esteem by success at work. I'm pretty jealous of your ability to make people laugh. That's something I find really difficult.

One thing I've noticed is that different people value different things. I have some friends who really value humour, and being around (only) them too much can damage my self-esteem as I'm not able to provide one of the things that they really value. Whereas other friends of mine don't care so much about humour and value my time, care and attention, which is something that I'm much better at.

The only positive side is that china’s regime is comiting suicide with this system. Seems like nothing was learned from communist russia. Intellectuals will flee, then top scientists, nobody will trade with them anymore, political opponents will be sent to camp, until finally it will all collapse under economical meltdown.

My only concern is that civilians don’t pay a too high price in the process.
The changes to the process were absolutely necessary for Java to keep growing and remain competitive, but the ecosystem will take a few years to adapt (and I don't think the warning is cryptic).

As to an installer -- the JDK does not require any installation (just point JAVA_HOME at it). In addition, the JDK is for developers only. The days of the "system desktop JRE" are over, and it is against the recommended practice to have the JDK on non-developer machines. Instead, the recommended practice is to have the developer create a small custom runtime with jlink and bundle it with their application (or perhaps a runtime shared for all of the developer's applications, in case the users are all in the same company).

It’s a verb tense for when your story starts in the more distant past and then describes a future that will come to pass relative to that past. Makes more sense if you add the (unnecessary) additional words “go on to”.

Here’s a guy at a past point in time. That guy would go on to create the cereal, and would go on to have a visitor ...

Merriam Webster: past future adj. — of, relating to, or constituting a verb tense that is traditionally formed in English with would or should and denotes an action or state as future from a past point of view (as would write in “he promised that he would write”)

How do countries with good social safety nets factor in here? In EU people are definitely not nearly as likely to start their own business as in the US, and many people that would otherwise be labelled 'jobless' (or on the dole) are 'self employed' instead.

I once worked on the software side of a 500-employee electronics company that had managed to ISO-certify their so called Agile development process.

Everything, and I do mean everything; was performed according to some ISO-script. No deviation, no matter how meaningless the task. And we had more useless meetings than anything I've seen before, it's just that they were called stand ups and reviews.

Thanks, but no thanks.
Maybe it is like the investment that Microsoft made in Apple, Microsoft doesn't want to have a complete monopoly in games consoles.
I'm surprised when it works.

I still don't know how to unpair on some black boxes. My partner has a speaker, and I think auto-pairing occurs if used previously, so we have a strange ritual of turning off bluetooth on other devices until it seems to correct itself when wanting to use it.

I've always assumed this was a UI issue.

I've had phones that have presented themselves as a pointing device to a computer. Some as modems. Some that have transferred/pushed files okay on some OSs, not others. I have no idea what's going on with Bluetooth most of the time, and it's quite infuriating. On Linux Blueman doesn't give much away. On a Windows PC I have, using Bluetooth kills WIFI, and requires a reboot to fix.

From a mobile perspective if I say try and transfer a file from a phone, it can turn Bluetooth on, fail and then leave it on.

Wireless headphones sound like a great idea though! But again not sure which protocols are being used. Again that's a UI issue, I've a streaming speaker - and have no idea about the stream quality of what I'm listening to. Oh for some simple feedback diagnostics.
It's a nice mini soap opera but the core is that actually they agree but have a different definition of "rich kids".
> why not lanes for autonomous vehicles?

That would be such a huge change to infrastructure that "on-demand-trains" probably would be the cheaper alternative. There are also a lot of cases where you just lack the space for additional lanes.
Quite. I have older books.

IMHO Solid is nice but I always struggle to remember what the acronym stands for. I mentally translate this to just optimizing two easy to remember metrics: classes should have low coupling and high cohesiveness. This also applies to functions and not just classes.

* Understand nobody can see into your head and the knowledge you posses inside

* Understand nothing can hurt you if you just align yourself with the karmic good and don't go into harm in others

* Understand you are the only one giving meaning to events and attaching emotions to them

* Find what caused you to believe you are not good in your past and understand those events. And let go. Your past doesn't influence you, it just brought you here

* Your perfectionism is what gives you the chance to improve, you know where your flaws are

* Meditate

* Check out hypnosis, for example Marisa Peer, to solve deeply rooted issues

* Try psychedelics
I think if Paul G. came out a little less strong at the beginning - without 'bullshit' - this wouldn't be an issue.

On the other hand there is the habit nowadays of having to guard and specify ones statements zealously in order not to get called out for something a reasonably lenient reading would allow, but calling something 'bullshit' probably doesn't get you into that other hand category.
True, and that is certainly not due to impotent efforts to increase security in basically every facet of life.
From what I remember of 1984 I don't think everyone was spied on all the time - it was mainly the Outer Party members (~13% of the population) who were scrutinized so closely as they were the source of potential threats to the Inner Party. Most of the characters in the book, apart from O'Brien, were Outer Party members.
In many EU countries, the safety net is much better if you had a job than if you had your own company. Eg in NL, if you get fired after working more than x months, you get 70% of your last salary for max 2 years while you can go find a job. But if your company goes to shit, all you can get is "bijstand" which is much lower benefits and you have to sell all your assets (eg if you owned a house, you have to sell it and move to rent, even though that's usually more pricey than the mortgage, etc) before you get it. So if your company goes bust and you come from a middle class (or higher) background, you'll probably prefer to depend on your family for a bit while finding a job (or a freelance gig etc). But if you have nothing like that to depend on, then it means that starting a company is extremely risky (I'm not sure most Dutch Uber drivers realise this).

IMO if NL really want to encourage more entrepreneurship, and if they want do so in a way that matches our culture and values, then they should create the same safety net for entrepreneurs and employees. But lots of entrepreneurs are against this because ofc this safety net also means paying more taxes. I think that's stupid. I'd gladly take a 5% pay cut if it helps make my country more entrepreneurial, and me more safe. Plus, now I buy commercial accident insurance (pays out monthly if I can't work ever again), which would also be covered by said safety net, so in effect the cost difference would be smaller than 5%.

EDIT: I'm only just seeing who I'm replying to. I think you knew the above already so I must've misunderstood your question.

How long your since co-workers been out of China? I'm in China right now but I don't think that system has changed people's behavior that much. Plus, I think it's stupid to put a score on everybody's head ("Oh, you're below 10, we can't be friend" stupid).

Based on my observation, people acting better usually because now they can and willing to, rather than been forced to.

In our city for example, we used to have many jaywalkers. But that number dropped since the administration constructed better pedestrian crossings (underground tunnels, foot bridge etc). People still jaywalking when those infrastructure is unavailable.
Frequency hoping is neat but kind of insane.

I much prefer WiFi’s wideband spread spectrum and just letting the user pick a different carrier frequency if there’s too much interference.
How Can Startups Scale Business Through Microservices and Processes?

I know it. But you have to pay the cost. Do the mock-up, build an MVP just to get the insight from UX viewpoint.

My point of view is that, it's not worth the trade-off here (especially you have only limited time-budget or dev-budget).
Dito!! I totally agree with this. I am good at alone task. I have low self-esteem while interacting socially or trying new things or feeling about my abilities about code (I am good but I do not feel that).

I find my faults and think very negatively and feel other persons superior to me. I am trying to change that but Its really very hard.
Just the added feeling of focus and elevated mood after exercise makes it worth it to me, everything else is a bonus.

You are factually incorrect about the well-known DMCA notice and counter-notice provisions. Please read 17 USC §512, subsections (c) and (g). The comment to which you are replying quotes what I presume from context to be subsection (c) (the language is repeated across multiple subsections).

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/17/512

The law provides that service providers can avoid liability by following these procedures, which afford them no discretion or opportunity to review claimed infringement.

You claim that "DMCA claims [...] [impose] a significant legal burden on YT; they would need actual lawyers with actual law degrees who've passed the bar to review each contested copyright claim." From the statute, it appears instead that reviewing section (c) notices or section (g) counter-notices and acting based on their own purported determination of infringement or non-infringement would cause the loss of their safe harbor, a safe harbor available only when the provider follows the nondiscretionary procedure laid out in (c)(1) and (g)(2).

Seeing your faults is not necessarily (in itself) a bad thing. That means it's that much easier to improve, until you can no longer see trivial faults of your own.

Try to answer honestly (to yourself) - why exactly do you care what others think, unless their opinion has immediate effects on you? But be blunt and honest to yourself, don't kid yourself.

Confidence is a scam. It's just a way certain people "act", and others label it "confidence". Sometimes you can label it with a different word - like a moron under the guise of the all-mighty "confidence", for example. Don't buy that much into it.

How many "confident" people "deserve" the mystics surrounding the confidence? How many original thoughts, works have they produced? In which field have they been top in the world? If they simply died tomorrow, who'd miss them truly? What is their objective value? What about their internal, moral values? Any substance at all?

Try to err on the side of logic, not emotions. Try to think objectively, as much as possible.

On the topic of "trying new things" - listen, nobody is good enough. People take chances all the time and we usually hear about the "winners". Think about "last man standing" kind of thing. Try, fail, improve, try again - that's what everyone does. No exceptions.

Practical advice: sleep 8+ per day, exercise daily, protect your mental well being (especially if you notice that it's going down) - don't expose your mind to insane things.
This. Plus if you get to be really good at something and extremely knowledgeable on a topic you can get to be able to claim nothing about your expertise level. (Dunning–Kruger effect, gone right).

The only downside is that people will pigeon hole you, so if you become expert at something people will keep you doing it rather than promote you to something you cannot do (according to them). This can be bad if you are a creative at heart and get pigeon holed as a techie.

So maybe master two things in unrelated areas. Get the tech string to your bow but add on another, e.g. knowledge of a period of history or a craft.
I'm not sure how you can say that changing from white to brown rice is the cure when people are consuming 'unhealthy amounts of soft drinks and processed food'

But I didn't say that. In fact, I carefully qualified my statement, saying that the majority of the obesity problem is caused by junk food. And note, I never said brown rice is a "cure", I actually said it would help. The implication was clearly that by itself (without reducing a diet of processed foods and soft drinks), it's not going to be effective. I just can't fathom how you got "cure" out of my comment.

You know, I'm getting a bit tired of commenting here on HN if this is the sort of conversation I'm going to have, where I'm cautious about making sweeping and unsupported statements, and where I take pains to qualify my comments so that people don't get the wrong idea. It's too bad that no matter how much I try to head such comments off at the pass, someone will reply reflexively without reading carefully.
The current thinking is that end users are not supposed to install Java - it will be bundled with every application. That kind of solves the problem, but I guess we'll have to forget about writing small utility programs in Java.

Also, complicating things a bit if you want a traditional shared Java installation, AdoptOpenJDK has apparently been refused a license for the test suite, making it not quite properly offical Java.

I suspect this is a matter of ideologies. A constellation of tangential policies derived from various ideological values widely held in Europe conspire to make it difficult for tech giants to exist.

You can't build a boat if you don't recognise the existence of the sea, are opposed to things that float and require all boats to have holes in them.

Elite athletes that can't manage their weight so that they have enough body fat to last until the end of the race? I think not. Also, extremely low body fat can cause a host of other issues like low testosterone that could effect race performance.

Funnily that happens also in French. Déjeuner means literally breakfast (as in, breaking the fasting). But for some reason it moved to mean lunch, and to say breakfast you say "pétit déjeuner", or "little breakfast".
This is why I find the flutter approach interesting: it has its own rendering engine. I would guess it is optimized for this sort of thing (dynamically rendering UI elements) without depending on an external entity (DOM).

Maybe there is a future where flutter style renderers become standard, have a container like a browser (to avoid the entire runtime baggage when it's deployed), and people target it instead of the DOM? This gives best of both worlds--write apps in a declarative way, without the need of any external "optimizing" framework.
There is a whole district in Tel Aviv in this style, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_City_(Tel_Aviv)
TLDR; I agree, but I understand how this happened.

The logic seems to have been:

* Ubuntu 18.04 is a LTS release.

* LTS releases should only incorporate software that is supported on a similar lifecycle.

* OpenJDK 8 was moving out of its support window early in the lifetime of Ubuntu 18.04.

* OpenJDK 11 (the next long term supported JDK) was not going to be released until after the release of Ubuntu 18.04

* OpenJDK 9 and 10 were short term releases so they weren't options

* The move from Open JDK 8 to Open JDK 9 included a lot of breaking changes (from project Jigsaw/modularisation)

So a compromise was necessary. From a purist packaging point of view it makes sense; release JDK 10 as "JDK 11" and silently upgrade under the covers when possible. In theory this would only involve minor changes and the 'wrong' version would only be there for the first few weeks of the release. In practice there were some breaking changes - enough that the backporting of OpenJDK 11 into Ubuntu 18.04 actually took rather a long time. It's also, of course, really confusing when you "sudo apt install openjdk-11" and something totally different happens.

The problem with staying on OpenJDK 8 (perhaps the obvious approach) is that in an unsupported state it would lack security fixes. In practice of course several alternative upstreams are now available supporting it.

Hopefully it will all go with fewer surprises when we get to the next LTS edition (Ubuntu 20.4).
You wonder why OpenBSD removed it ?
I read somewhere most businesses in US are started by immigrants.
So only a person with means can immigrate to US, I guess even the people coming from India or China or Eastern Europe do have people back in home backing them financially or in other words they've enough financial moat to take risks through which they are able to jetset themsleves into new businesses.

I've this friend in Europe he's working on a startup idea once it's developed and become bit popular he plans to move it to states because of stronger private property rights and less taxes and better benefits for employers there and a bigger market.

So maybe a lot of people come to US to start a new businesses once they've some idea and implementation in their mind and enough resources to execute it.
I wouldn't want to live in either country, but for entirely different reasons for each.
