I'm grateful that you shared that. Even if the experience seems unfamiliar to me the feelings seem oddly familiar.
At what point are we going to stop treating people who take out loans and drive up debt as the victim?

Poor life choices is what causes you to get in debt (with the exception of medical deb, unless well, your poor life choices caused your medical condition).

In place of all these sob stories and begging for loan forgiveness maybe we should go back to the schools and educate all of our next generation about the badness of taking out debt with the same gusto as we did saying how badly you need a degree and to take out a bunch of debt to do so.

Lets bring back "You can't afford it" followed with "It won't be the end of the world if you can't invite 200 people to a wedding you really can't afford".

ELOPE PEOPLE!

I feel dumb for saying it, but I didn't understand "circles".

I think I actually did but I found it a bit confusing and assumed I didn't understand.

Actually generally I didn't understand what Google thought the workflow for Google+ was "supposed to be." This actually is something I find hard to understand about a lot of their products. There will be a heartwarming video, or some announcment showing a gee wiz feature ... but I'm not sure how they think I should use their product(s).

I loved the look, but I didn't really get what I was supposed to be doing and how things worked.

It felt to me like an engineers social network where I was supposed to invest time to understand it like any other engineering type tool.... that's not what I want from a product like that.
Mattermost CEO here,

You're right that it does take some effort to self manage. We try to make it as easy as we can with a single Linux binary and lots of documentation.

One of the most common scenarios for Mattermost is deploying into a private network, that's invisible to SaaS services.

The software that runs manufacturing plants should never touch the internet. Neither should the backends of financial services companies, and many other industries.

Developers in those companies need to have some way to collaborate, and integrate with their DevOps toolchains and legacy backends, and Mattermost is getting increasingly popular there.

Every open source Mattermost server has all the core features of Slack, including Slack-compatible keyboard shortcuts, and Slack integrations via webhooks. Every Mattermost server can host hundreds of Slack-compatible teams, and every month over 10,000 servers are downloaded.

Also, if you've installed GitLab already, you just turn on Mattermost as a feature in omnibus. It's really simple to start. When you get to a few hundred users and IT needs to add some more admin and permissions there's some additional setup, but then you can go to hundreds or thousands of users from that setup.
It's usually the homoiconic syntax that you "get." Your mind is usually blown once you start taking advantage of that.

Keep in mind that this applies to all Lisps--not just Common Lisp. I never even bother with CL myself because I find it ugly and full of cruft. Most Scheme implementations will blow your mind just fine.
Yep: and of course their own expectations (partially fueled by other people's weddings and movies).

The priority in this case (for the subset the article is referring to, of course) is always expectations > practicalities like money.

I get wanting to have a plan but don't overthink it too much either. Get out and meet people and network. That is the only way to grow your network and get more work.

Also talk to your primary and ask them for recommendations to clients they turned down for being outside their target demographic. Also make sure you get your primary to provide you a written recommendation as early as you can in these projects. I know this sounds odd but all software projects will have struggles and I always found getting recommendations early meant I got much better ones then when schedule changed etc. Even if we were not at fault the recommendation would be less then I would have liked when I waited too long.

Last comment. As for your plan the one key thing to identify is your ideal client type, size etc. It is less about Technology and more about client demographics. This helps you create a target client list and start hammering the ground finding contacts in to them.
> Voice chat is almost always faster for me as it is easier to have a discussion and potentially whiteboard.

Where I find the opposite. The ability to stop and craft a message that is precise gets the job done immediately, rather than the continual back and forth to confirm that each party understands what happens to be uttered in the moment that is inherit to voice chat.

> If people aren't taking notes during meetings (or snapping a quick photo of a whiteboard drawing) that doesn't sound like a communication problem but a personal one.

A personal one shared by everyone, I guess. Meeting length and frequency has increased substantially. And not only the meetings that I personally take part in, but observed company-wide.

I imagine familiarity is key. If you come from an environment where voice communication is the de facto method, you are going to get good at that style of communication through practice, and then anything else is going to seem less performant. In my case, we spent many years conducting textual communication and gained plenty of practice at it. Now, voice communication is the unfamiliar ground.
> Has "safety" become a buzzword? What we really strive for is correctness.

Correctness is about program making what I meant as a programmer. Safety is a different thing. I see it as insulator on wires. It helps me to avoid shocks while working with electricity. Safety guarantees of Rust is like that, I have a pointer, I could use that pointer without fear of segmentation fault or data race. It feels like safety. It named "safety". So I believe it is a good coherent name.

> if you need absolute correctness (when human life depends on the software) you would probably use Ada and Spark or something else that enables you to actually prove correctness.

Maybe. But between absolute buggy code and absolute correct code there is a spectrum of not so buggy and not so correct code. We need a compromise enabling us to create a reasonable reliable software with a reasonable effort.
I don't think that's true. I can find no reference to "cromulent" existing pre-Simpsons, and every source explicitly says it was coined by David Cohen for an episode.

From Wiktionary: "A humorous, intentionally morphologically opaque neologism coined by American television writer David X. Cohen for 'Lisa the Iconoclast', a 1996 episode of the animated sitcom The Simpsons."

From Merriam-Webster: "It is safe to say that The Simpsons has contributed a great deal to the English language. One famous example is cromulent, which was coined specifically for the 1996 episode 'Lisa the Iconoclast'."
We all know it sucks. I've even heard people talk about going to McDonald after the wedding because they didn't get enough food.
For example: I was invited to an event this week, and to participate, I need to RSVP on the Facebook event... I could ask how to get around that, but I'm actually not that interested. The point is, the process has put a roadblock in my participation.

But to be honest, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.
Flexport do freight forwarding which is the organising of getting cargo from one place to another, not the actual shipping.
Nuttall notes that "speed, enjoyment and comprehension are closely linked with one another" (1996: 128). She describes "The vicious circle of the weak reader: Reads slowly; Doesn't enjoy reading; Doesn't read much; Doesn't understand; Reads slowly. . ." (p. 127) and so on. Extensive reading can help readers "enter instead the cycle of growth. . . . The virtuous circle of the good reader: Reads faster; Reads more; Understands better; Enjoys reading; Reads faster. . ."

Thus, I would conclude that any activity, be it note taking or a similar endeavor, if proves to be disturbing the reading fluency of the agent, it could result in unintended secondary consequences, as such to foster an aversion to reading, supported by the deduction in reading pleasure and comprehension.

At the end, the agent could find itself spending less time reading, the main culprit being the very methods which it sought to maximize reading productivity, as such methods proved to be destructive for its reading fluency.
"Sum types" fill the opposite role in strongly- to that in in dynamic-typed languages.

In Haskell, Rust, and C++, a "sum type" weakens type enforcement to provide a data-flow path paralleling another for, we hope, a short distance, before the paths peel apart at a convenient spot -- typically some sort of pattern match construct.

In a dynamic-typed language like Lisp, Javascript, or Python, they appear in more or less the same place, but their role is, instead, to impose some discipline, to make visible what could otherwise be an implicit substitution of one type for another.

Total non-sequitur. The point is that the idea of unlimited wealth is an artificial construction.

> everybody should be able as much wealth as they have acquired through any kind of lawful exchange.

Any state that protects the property of wealthy people through violence can surely also put obligations on those people. In exchange for the state's violence, they must support a social safety net which gives the people who wealthy people are being protected from basic human necessities and dignity.

The state who gives an artificially constructed right to wealthy people (the institution of private property) can also give an artificially constructed right to poor people (basic needs and dignity).
> It really doesn't make sense to me that software isn't created at the government level for cities and states to use.

What government level? The federal government?

> This way it's easier to make sure everything is functioning properly and the cost is only paid once.

The federal government is no paragon of software virtue, nor is it likely to produce software adapted all that well to all of the needs of various states and cities, so what you'd end up with is software less fit for purpose, not particularly free from vulnerability, and where all of the vulnerabilities expose every state and local government in the country rather than just one jurisdiction.

And that's still assuming good intent, but in many cases the state and federal government have adversarial relations on particular issues, which might lead to the federal government actively designing software in a way to frustrate the needs of particular states.

> What's wrong with the UX of IRC?

One sentence later:

> ...we scrapped it because only our software developer used it and other people in the company preferred something else (they used a mix of email, Google chat/hangouts, and text).

Clearly something was wrong with the UX if only one person was willing to use it?

This place is a parody of itself sometimes.
Again, I loved Australia but restaurant service is something USA does better.

It's not the difference in attitude even though I think you're exaggerating a little. In Australia, it's getting one serving of water and never seeing your server again until they bring you your food. It's waiting for someone to take your check or bring you the check in the first place when you're ready to leave. In America, it's a willingness to make sure you're happy with your food.

The last one is a big deal because in the USA, the server is essentially working for the customers because that is where she makes most of her money. In Australia, they work for the restaurant. The end result is a completely different attitude when it comes to making sure you get what you ordered and are happy with it.
> most fiction books I read don't have any deeper meaning

That's fine; keep doing what you enjoy. But there is life-changing fiction, so it is not as though there is nothing a person could choose to read that would be great.

Such individuals are no problem.

What I wouldn't want are people who are "my way or highway", non-evidence-based, paranoid conspiracy theorists...

It doesn't matter if they're conservative or liberal - if they're off in the deep end and drowning, they probably aren't going to help a team move forward.
It is still controversial [1]. However, newest data on permafrost melting suggests that we will find out the validity of this hypothesis quite a bit sooner than expected.

This is the point. People keep saying "it is just IRC" but the thing they forget is it is IRC+ with practically no setup. If you want Enterprise or consumer adoption, you must make it easy. Just like what you said with Dropbox. Install client, data automatically available everywhere I log in. That is the product and it actually solves a problem people have.

However, as we have already seen Dropbox has already been commoditized and is looking for a reboot. I see the same thing happening with Slack. It will be the king for a while but it has no moat.
Two former employees came back to work for me. Five former employees went on to great careers, two of whom I "fired" with instructions to leave me and pursue their dream. I have many weaknesses as a manager and as a person... But developing talent is the one thing I'm most proud of.
Did a 2600x / Vega 56 build recently, and I'm honestly impressed with the value. Total under $1k after tax. I would have spent that before getting a GPU if I had gone Intel.
It looks like 1-to-N protocols can grow organically without significant investment (HTTP, hypertext), but N-to-M (chat, social media) cannot.
The Feynman technique is very effective.

At the end of each chapter/section, write a one page summary, in as simple language as possible, to teach a hypothetical new student what you just learned.

Even better if you can then compare what you just learned to other things you know to clearly separate them in your mind.
I've considered that but I doubt it. I don't watch the youtube videos myself so I can't be sure, but it sounds more like Wang Qishan was an easier boogeyman to blame for all of life's issues (like how the Koch brothers are for the american left or Soros+Hillary for the alt-right)
Why I don't use web components
Why is Facebook dead? I use it quite often.
Googel+ was by far the best social network I've ever seen, the only one I've got addicted to and the only one I've actually written posts to. All Google had to do with it was adding youtube-like recommendations (many people complained it was "empty" while I had a waterfall of great content in it just because I actually subscribed to everybody I could discover, to those they were subscribed to etc) and leave it as it was without introducing more and more complicated concepts.
this is awesome, but I feel Scottish and Irish accents are underrepresented as per usual. Would you mind adding some videos from Kevin Bridges, Franky Boyle, Dara O'Brien, Chris O'Dowd and Dylan Moran pleeeeeease?

"Grab 80 million people and claim they have some psyche in common, people love reading this stuff"
The typo in question was "dish-water", not "dish-washer".
The decision to name it "Google+" was an epic blunder. You wouldn't ask a girl at a club if she's on "McDonalds+". You wouldn't ask a member of your church if they'd like to connect on "American Airlines Plus".

When Facebook was at the height of its coolness (like 2007, 2008), most people didn't even see it as a corporation. It was just its own independent thing. It never would have spread if it were attached at the hip to some corporation that had nothing to do with connecting to friends.
“Neven says that Google’s best quantum chips have recently been improving at an exponential rate.”

Exactly, we need to stop waiting until we have 1000% clarity on which ones are truly responsible. Ban them all and see if they recover in 5 years.
I talk to managers every day as a part of my free mentoring program for managers (info in my profile, although I’m booked till the end July), and I’ve spoken to 60+ people from 12 countries since this past February when I launched. Many of whom are from right here on HN! A few thoughts.

There’s no universal rule to “what makes a good manager” because that’s going to vary by team, company size, and culture. A flexible manager (but one need not be flexible to be great) can adapt to multiple situations where they need to be hands on with junior developers on one team, while simultaneously being the macro-manager for a senior team that requires blocking and tackling, not direct guidance. In other words, being a good fit for your team is an important place to start.

Another “universal” truth is feedback. That means demonstrating appreciative feedback very often, delivering coaching feedback as needed, and giving effective evaluative feedback on a regular (quarterly, semi-annually?) basis. This is the most common issue most managers talk to me about in my program, as they don’t feel equipped to understand how to do each of those steps effectively. (Check out the book Thanks For The Feedback for more info on this)

Another universal truth is trust. You and your manager need to build a trusting relationship (typically this starts in 1:1s, and is why they are so critical 99% or the time), and it needs to be bidirectional. The worst advice you’ll read on the internet re: 1:1s as a manager is that you should tell your team member “this meeting is for you, not me”. In fact, “this meeting is for us” is the correct statement. Think about any healthy relationship you’ve had in your life. They are always bi-directional relationships, where each party is putting in as much as they are taking out.

One of the key things I also harp on is around being “energizing” as a manager. Jack Welch has his “4Es and a P” framework for what makes a great manager. One of which is “energizing”. Whether it’s by running a team meeting that helps you see your purpose, running a one on one that leaves you feel buzzing, giving you that spot on appreciative feedback that lets you know what you did matters... Each of these things helps to keep you engaged and energized as a team member. When everyone feels that way, and is in sync, great things can happen. Sometimes at a rocket ship company the progression of the business is enough to do this and mask bad managers. If you ever find yourself at a company that’s struggling to grow, but your manager still keeps you engaged despite this, that’s a great sign.

If you’re a manager reading all of these posts and looking for help on how to build out these skills, my company runs a multi-week (2 hours every other week) remote cohort program to help you understand how to be an effective leader for your people. It’s a great way to network, learn from experts, and engage that desire to be a better manager. Hope you check it out: https://connect.eagerlabs.com
I do something similar to "incremental reading" when reading all books (minus fiction, which i tend not to read). I use kindle highlights and notes to keep track of important sections of the books as i am reading them. Every few days, I export all my current notes to Anki and review them every day. This allows me to retain almost everything I read in some form, and also allows me to read many books at one time, especially technical books, because the topics etc are fresh in my mind.

I am not inherently anti-fiction, but there are way too many non-fiction books out there that I want to read that I cannot find them time.
They claim this is for the F22, but I wonder if some enemy tech has been 'obtained' and they want to backward engineer it?

The wiki page shows some stats of a plane that is (publicly) 22-23 years old and VAX is 42 years old. To me, that math does not add up.

Just a curious thought.
