I have seen the tension between open separated spaces with my family. My parents come from a place and time when having lots of little rooms, with doors that you can open close is a great advantage.

My wife and I like open floor plans. The kitchen opens into the living room and into the dining room. When my parents visit, my mom often remarks how she would really like to close the (non-existent) door to the kitchen, so she can cook in peace and not make loud noises and smell up the whole house. And we keep trying to tell her that we like to watch and help her cook, see steaming pot of soup or the frying pan going and whatnot. It's a silly conversation we have, we even joke about it, but I found it relevant with the article at hand.

> the kitchen, no longer a place of shame and no longer reliant upon the ventilation provided by the kitchen door

Yes. I think that is to some extent how my mom views that space. It's a dirty, place that you want isolate, do your work in there, and then come out and serve everyone the food in the dining room.
I saw some of the most recent projections for global GDP impacts due to climate change and it was a fraction of US GDP. That's unfortunate, but much better than I thought. We will make it.

US CO2 emissions peaked in around 2007. Per capita CO2 in the US is the lowest it's been in 50 years. We're behind the EU in CO2 reduction, but it is going down.

India and China are worrisome, but China is making solar panels as fast is it possibly can. Political priority of millennials was mentioned in this context too. I haven't seen it, is there wide-spread support among Millennials for the trade war with China or other aggressive measures which will move manufacturing to countries with better CO2 regulations?
I had the exact opposite reaction. The experience stunk on my phone.
The productivity and wage decoupling is very hot debate topic in the economic circles. It's not very easy to sum it up, as there are many factors going in. For example, productivity is calculated based on real GDP, which uses GDP deflator, while deflator for real wages that is typically used is CPI. Just the fact that you're using two different deflators already makes a meaningful comparison harder.

Looking at minimum wage is not really relevant, as only around 2% of workers earn minimum wage.

The degree cost explosion is very unfortunate, not only because it is more expensive now, but also because much fewer people had (or even attempted to obtain) degrees, so not only it was much cheaper for them, but also they simply didn't need to get them as much as people need them now. The push for universal tertiary education has been very detrimental to our society, as people need to spend more, and the only result is degree inflation.
Honest question, do Hillarys power circles now latch onto Biden? Or are they distinct?
I had a condo that was 1200 sqft. but it was 2 floors, each floor being 600 sqft. The bottom was open: kitchen, dining, living room. The top floor had a bathroom, laundry and small bedrooms. It really worked well. With the downstairs being one room with 600 sqft. wide open it felt large and spacious, sociable. Upstairs was more functional (as in you didn't spend much time there) but also made it cozy enough to retreat or read if you wanted. EDIT: having large window and minimalist furniture helps.
It’s much easier to argue for privatizing government services that are poorly run and wasteful, than services that are well run and efficient. Making them function better would be antithetical to the end goal.

In this day and age, when accelerometers can be embedded in small objects, why don't we stop using analogues and just design a real world smart pencil that be used to control the VR floating pencil?
Because CT scans and MRI scans are very different technologies....

CT = xray

MRI = Magnetic resonance imaging

There is no exposure in an MRI to radiation. The only danger would be having bits of metal on you or inside you.
Right? If you asked me, I'd say that domain "microsoftedgeinsider.com" belongs to some Indian scamming call centre.

For what reason have they purchased that domain instead of hosting it under microsoft.com ?
Does SOLID align with functional programming?

I've come to think that IOC/DI should almost be an anti pattern as it depends on interfaces and I've never seen anything use it that wasn't abstraction hell.

Functional programming seems like a breath of fresh air, which is ironic since it predates all this modern buzzword centric world and was around with LSIP.
I’m not so sure you have it right. If that happened to an American child or teenager they would think it was awesome. An adult would not be so amused especially if their child was standing there.

I’d think they were an asshole. BMW drivers are assholes, I know I used to drive one.
Something like this is probably against some terms of use that you implicitly agree to as a Facebook user, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they would auto detect it and ban you.
The really weird thing about wage stagnation is that there are millions of jobs going unfilled, companies are so desperate for people that they can't find anyone and are just dumping cash into stock buybacks instead of raising wages.

Something is fundamentally broken in the labor market, it is not responding to supply & demand forces as it has in the past. I am not sure what terminology to use to describe what's going on now, but it's not a free labor market any more, it has been destroyed or transformed into some other construct.
Thanks for this. I wasn't too keen on them to be honest because they reminded me of little fleas jumping around. But it is sad to read "These shrimp are social creatures, but the Ecosphere starts with only four (often less, with one or more dead on arrival), and eventually only a single one is left to swim around alone, perhaps for years"[0]. I had assumed that they would reproduce within the ecosystem, but apparently not.

I live in a old Victorian with small rooms and solid wood doors. This was fantastic when my son was growing up and when my wife was alive. Her tv watching noise did not take over the house; no one's did. It was great. One room is big, the dining room, where we all gathered. The kitchen was nice size too. I have to really appreciate this floor plan, plus the solid wood doors. I am noise sensitive.
> I don't think there's a great solution aside from "build your own ecosystem and don't let it get capitalism.txt'd to death."

I do, it's "if you run a big mainstream distro like Fedora or Debian, let your users swap out init systems". I know there have been debates on this, and I know the general consensus is "it's not worth the trouble / it's not as simple as just swapping out something like systemd". My counter arguments are: there are distros that are doing it, so it doesn't seem like it's that bad after all, and when dealing with something as important as PID 1 (or your libc, or your filesystem) we should be conservative and let users swap things back when making a huge change.

> Millenial here, and I just don't understand why my generation is so pessimistic. Things are simply better than when we were children. Perhaps it's having immigrants for parents, but my life just seems great compared to my parents and my aunts and uncles.

Other countries (outside of NA and western EU) were in shambles until the soviet fell. There was a constant threat of proxy wars in third world countries, eastern EU etc.

Until 80s-90s, US was the champion of intellectualism, innovation, trade, commerce etc. The wealth of that is what "good ol' day" is about.

From 90s-2020, US became a society for the rich, ie. More debt, recessions, wars, higher inflation (that is not counted as inflation) etc.

So yes, if you are from one of the countries in shambles in the 90s, your life is immeasurably better. But for anyone who just believed blindly in American exceptionalism and enslaved everything with debt, are seeing their kids suffering today

I bet one getting poked has more to do with it than you think. We have two lungs too after all and they're a lot less exposed than your eyes. I use that redundancy with a disturbing amount of regularity when biking too... with something getting in one eye and temporarily disabling it (I really need to look into some form of eye protection from road dust).

But thinking of depth in vision like color also makes a lot of sense, it's extra information but not an extra "physical" dimension. You can't see inside a sphere but you can a circle.

Ouch, almost all of my pictures of me have been uploaded by other people. I had this suspicion yet kept telling myself I'd once build it. Thanks for the heads up.

I hate the pic attrition on Facebook. As people unfriend me or delete albums, some of the best moments captured of my life are erased. They really should be included in the archive download and more strongly link to your account.
Eating for me is absolutely social, cooking, I wont say --like others, I like to be left alone in the kitchen, because I enjoy having someone there to banter with while I'm whisking the hollandaise but at the same time there's only so much "ope[1], lemme just reach around ya for the cayenne...ope, sorry lemme get by ya...ope watch the burner there, ope, ope" before having someone in the kitchen with you starts getting in the way.

Typos abound these days. My personal guess is, since people communicate in written form constantly now, they don't see it is as "special" anymore, and they just don't think it's very important to proofread.

But if you're looking for minor errors, there are three in this blog post alone:

1. In the first sentence, there is a stray non-breaking space before "manufacturing". Along with the regular space character next to it, the effect is to put extra whitespace between the words words.

2. "We’ve also added USB-C port" should have an "a" before "USB-C".

3a. The first sentence of the last paragraph ends with "work better, smarter and faster". So they've elected not to use an Oxford comma, which would be an OK choice except for the fact that in the first sentence of the paragraph before that they do have an Oxford comma. (They have "... Sutter Health, and H.B. Fuller.") So it's not consistent.

3b. Oh, they're also inconsistent with Oxford commas within a single sentence! The last sentence of the first paragraph is this: "Workers can use Glass to access checklists, view instructions or send inspection photos or videos, and our enterprise customers have reported faster production times, improved quality, and reduced costs after using Glass." No Oxford comma before "or send inspection" but there is one before "and reduced costs".
Widespread “New Device” Alerts from Google
I am reminded of the Steady State model of cosmology. It was a contestant to the Big Bang theory, appearing cleaner and somewhat more sensible. Go read up on it, it relies on a really neat principle.

But we all know how this turned out: Overwhelmingly data supported Big Bang, and Steady State is now just an episode in science history.

So while I really like MOND and wish for it to be the answer, I won’t be surprised if it’s not.
"Consider the construction industry, which has had formal standards in place for decades."

The construction industry has existed, in some form, for centuries. It has had time to develop these formal standards. Software is much younger, and the "formal standards" it should follow are still in flux.

> The difference is it's (often) incredibly obvious that a building isn't safe the moment you step into it.

This is just not true. If anything, our "danger detectors" probably give off an equal amount of false positives and false negatives when judging the structural integrity of objects we're unfamiliar with. And the same holds true for code bases, which is exactly why it makes sense to hold software to a similar standard as physical engineering.

A BS detection class would be interesting. It's too easy to look at videos of famous liars like Madoff or Bill Clinton and say its easy to tell they are lying because of their body language, in hindsight.

I would love to videos of non famous people telling lies about themselves and try to see if I could spot the liars at greater than average percentages.

Maybe that's an idea for a fun website....

Of course event this course wouldn't help you when the liars actually believe their own bullshit, which seems to be fairly common among the most successful fraudsters.

My experience is like 100% different from yours.

I have the feeling systemd is meant exactly for what you call hobby or novice users.
I actually enjoy some of it on my laptop to be honest ;-)

But in the datacenter it has caused me hours and hours of 'fixing problems that did not exist before systemd came along'.

Most of it's 'improvements' target the desktop user.
Many of it's 'improvements' actually get in the way in the server room.

I mean, why would I want to optimize my boot time on a server with all this parallel startup crap?
The server spends 10 times more time in BIOS and POST then it takes to boot the OS.
It has always been like this. And it still is like this.

From a config management point of view I like systemd. I gives me a consistent API to enable/disable start/stop services. That's awesome. I also like that I can 'override/patch' upstream units without having to maintain a fork. Perfect.

But many other things that came from the systemd ecosystem are questionable.
E.g. systemd-resolved, timesyncd and that kind of stuff.
Maybe these are nice for desktop users who want a click and play experience on their laptop.
No problem with that. But why do they have to break my server's for this?

I mean seriously: Linux on the desktop is irrelevant. Why optimize the whole OS/init for a irrelevant use case?
That's still a huge difference. Previously ads would be people who read x, people who go to y, here's a shoe that you might like because people who read wsj wear loafers, here's a hair product you like because people who read seventeen magazine are generally seventeen. The ad wouldn't know anything about you, just what the readers of where the ad is placed might be into based on past advertising decisions, and the content of whatever they are reading.

Now the game has been turned. Advertisers don't need to target sports illustrated to sell gatorade. They can see you checked into LA Fitness and most of the people who checked into this particular LA fitness also happened to spend 30s longer looking at a tester gatorade ad, so there is a slim possibility that you too will look at a gatorade ad for 30s and maybe subliminally engage with it next time you are presented with a gatorade in a cooler at the grocery store. The classic is you looking at a product on amazon and seeing it appear all over the web. It only gets more insidious the deeper your digital footprint goes, the more data they have on you, the more correlations they are free to make which would have been impossible back when advertisers were catering to audiences, not individuals. Sprinkle in exploiting modern psychology for profit, and it's disturbing.

> I'm calling for worker coops, and worker owned businesses

I'm not being argumentative here; I just want to point out that Not everyone is Brilliant and Extraordinary, at least Not in their job. On the other hand--some people are.

On a personally note: a huge deciding factor in my getting out of a family business was due to an association that my late father had with a competitor. Yes he was much older, and of course more experienced, but I knew I could not compete with him. Period, end of story.

Furthermore, from the ten years I did run that business (and successfully by most metrics), I also met other people who ran other types of businesses, that were also just ridiculously talented at their work. People like that have almost a Sixth Sense about what to do, and what not to do and when to do it. I may have that in certain arenas, But I did not posses it in that family business.
Typing this on my Poco F1, 6 may ROM and now upgrading to 13 may version. Battery is great (2,5 days), it is very stable and the speed is also good. Yesterday I've tested navigation by downloading Google Maps. Couldn't find places by typing. When I enabled advanced location via WiFi and Bluetooth it worked. Installed in November lineage manually with MicroG and had problems with finding location. Not anymore.
I also use Aurora store for the few apps that I'd like to use from play store such as banking. The sick thing about this combination is that it supports in app purchases as well.

GDPR was never about your privacy or user rights.

It was always a transparent ploy to make it more expensive for small-time ad network operators and give Google and Facebook yet another monopoly advantage.

And ironically, it is Google and Facebook who are the huge privacy violators, not the small ad tech companies; GDPR only serves to erode your privacy in the end.
I'm sure there was some explanation as to why superscalar CPU architectures were secure and foolproof as well. The point is that no human mind is capable of simulating reality and accounting for every single possibility. There are design flaws and unexpected surprises that make even the most well thought out plans and explanations seem foolish in retrospect. The point is determining the worst case and assuming it will happen.
There's a big difference between writing their own engine from scratch and forking Blink. For starters, even if they fork, they can still keep cherry-picking fixes and new features from Google's Blink. After all Webkit is under the GPL so they can't just close the source.
Which BSD, may I ask? I’d personally recommend OpenBSD, for code quality and “it just works”, but there’s a lot of really interesting BSDs that are even more obscure (Dragonfly, Debian and Gentoo using BSD kernels, etc) aside from FreeBSD and NetBSD.
Any suggestions for NDA review for a startup/small business?

A key difference between physical engineering and software engineering is that the economics of over-engineering to improve safety margins are wildly different. For physical engineering, the costs of substantially decreasing failure risk (e.g. via increasing strength, different materials, more complex design, etc) is approximately linear. For software engineering, that cost is something closer to quadratic or worse.

This is intrinsic to the differing nature of the problems. Verifying the safety of a bridge design is computationally trivial, verifying the safety of non-trivial software is NP-Hard. Safety is so inexpensive to add in physical engineering designs that we invest a lot of effort removing incidental unnecessary safety.
A disadvantage of open kitchens is that while they look cool, the smells can invade your house. Have you tried grilling something on the stove? Unless you have a powerful smoke extractor (sorry, don't know what they are called in English) you'll smoke up your living room, which is always nasty. Closing the door (plus an average smoke extractor) will help a lot.

- information : is hard to navigate tiny info obscuring your vision really better than an ipad?

Well, I've only put one reason forward. Of course there are more reasons but they all center on one core philosophy:

Having kids should never be about me. I shouldn't have children because I want to better my life for myself. Having kids should be viewed from the perspective of the child. Will they live a life so fruitful and free from suffering, that they themselves would choose to be born again if given the option?

57% is the top of the list but only 56% of Gen Z want a high salary? Hmm...

Aside form nitpicks, the figure showing difference between China,India, and the West is stark. Evidence culture and social media and whatever are not the determining factor, economic growth is.
