Ah ok. The lesson I'm thinking of is in his first memoir, "Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman" in the chapter "The Dignified Professor" where he was feeling quite down because he believes he can't live up to the expectations people have of him.

He makes a breakthrough in his thinking, when he realized that he's not responsible for other people's expectations. That's their mistake not his.
Smoking anything will give you lung cancer. That is a risk one should be aware of and accept if you so choose to inhale.

There are smokeless consumption alternatives, which anyone mindful of their lung health should choose instead.

No one is saying smoke doesn't cause lung cancer. What is being said is that cannabis consumption will not kill you via overdose.
It varies significantly from project to project. What we depend on is the accuracy of existing records (30-60 year old microfilm scans typically, schematics and physical drawings), similarity of the failed and replacement units, ease of access to the site, support needed by other disciplines (e.g. concrete or steel work), and cost even if it is do-or-die.

A perfect like in kind replacement could possibly be done entirely by construction using proper procedure of documenting their disconnects if there were no structural modifications required to move the units in/out. This is rarely the case however and so we need to check everything from phase clearance on making the high voltage connections to whether disconnecting a failed transformer will trip out another perfectly healthy one, possibly making the situation much worse.

All that being said, we make every attempt to triage the work required and get information to construction as soon as possible so that no time is wasted waiting for engineering. We can have a conceptual layout circulating within engineering in a few hours and out to the field by the next day. Field technicians can tag and disconnect terminals right away while we figure out how to wire up the new unit. Perhaps in a perfect situation you might get all this done in a few days with all hands on deck but that's more luck than aptitude.
Know Not Only Your Weaknesses, but Strengths as Wel
If we continue our current path it seems likely that the ecosystem collapses hard enough that even places where the climate becomes nicer for humans will be hard to inhabit, for example because phytoplankton in the oceans dies off and we run out of oxygen.
I stick to the fact. Generally when people use the expression, it is because they have not thought about the meaning, and thinking it through leads them to one of several, more specific, alternatives that the reader could not reliably have chosen correctly among.

It is always better to write what you mean, and not make people guess.
This thread, and a similar thread recently - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20162777, just solidifies my desire to ask for algorithmic whiteboard type questions.

Assuming all other things are equal, obviously anyone will choose the candidate who can do these questions vs one who cannot.

The problem, obviously, is that all other things are seldom equal IRL. So, the issue now becomes : Would you rather hire someone who has a solid github profile but can't whiteboard algos, or someone who doesn't have any past portfolio but can ace whiteboard algos.

If you give me 20 years, I could probably get a PhD. Given ENOUGH time, anyone could theoretically achieve anything. But the differentiator between candidates happens when the clock is ticking.

I, and most other employers, are not looking for perfect answers. We want to know how you approach a problem under these constraints : short time, high pressure, unseen problem.

We want to know whether you are the type who chokes. It tells us that your desire to look good in front of someone (or conversely, your fear of looking bad in front of someone) fills up your mind more than your desire to solve a problem.

Would you choke if you mom asked you the same question - No, because you don't fear being judged, right ?

We want a similar trait in our developers. We want you to GIVE VERY LITTLE SHIT about what we think of you, at least for the next 30 minutes. We want you to have enough control of your mind to TEMPORARILY ignore our existence and focus on the problem at hand.
Granted, such scenarios occur rarely IRL, but it tells us a lot about how much control the person has over their psyche, how honest they are about their limits, what they do when they reach their limit etc. It's as much a behavioral test as an IQ one.

Having said all that, not all companies need non-choking geniuses. Choking geniuses work fine for many.

The Streisand effect is not wanting people to know something, and in trying to prevent that drawing attention to it.

That’s not what is happening here: everyone knows there’s a bunch of basement trolls who stream violence (which is of course against tos), and from twitch’s POV publicity is a win:

* they get public appearance that they’re trying to do something about.

* the specter of being sued may discourage some people from abusing their platform

You've listed mostly previous generation, or much older, games. Overwatch being somewhat the exception, though I would say it has a very low skill floor and a mediocre skill ceiling. Overwatch is nowhere near the skill ceiling of Quake 3, IMHO.

Consider that in Fortnite a junior player can outlive and outlast a seasoned player by avoiding conflict, and score reasonably well.

In Pokemon Go and other similar mass market games, skill is an after thought at best; it's all about the balance between engagement with your friends and community and grinding levels and awards; intrinsic versus extrinsic.

The prolonged death of arena shooters is the evidence of the importance of skill.
I just figured that that was a pointless argument (people on HN seem to dismiss the concept of brand image and how that might have value), but you are of course correct - legal costs however are very directly enumerable
I noticed that the comment IDs were past 20190000 and after that it was easy to find the comment whose ID matched the date.
Also, I forgot to mention in my first answer above that it is false that "XOR and AND is not a minimal construction".

The following 4 sets of logic operations (and many others) are minimal:
1. AND, NOT
2. AND, XOR
3. NAND
4. NOR

So AND + XOR is a minimal set, because you can make NOT from a XOR where one input is true.
The interesting thing in this scenario is that if units were lost and unrecoverable in large swaths you wouldn't have to worry nearly as much about matching the legacy system perfectly, accidentally tripping out adjacent units, or things like that. Transformer replacements might even be easy, we'd just take whatever we had and wire it up anywhere it fits and can provide meaningful service. I'd be more worried about the issues to the underground system (nearly 100,000 miles of cable and piping) once oil stops circulating for long amounts of time, generators, and battery systems.
Depends on how you define a regime. If we can be a bit wishy-washy, Deng rewrote the constitution from scratch and was essentially running it like a new regime, but still paid lip service to Mao to prevent mutiny. A similar change is not unthinkable if Hu/Wen/Li's liberal faction gets in power.

Yes, because the alternative is the government forcing a 3rd party to provide a platform for speech they disagree with. And since that platform isn't free, you're also forcing them to spend their own resources to support it.

Those 3rd parties have rights too. They shouldn't be required to support and provide resources for speech they disagree with.

UWP is pretty much alive, that narrative keeps being spread by people that don't have any clue about Windows programming.

The only thing from UWP that is dead is an UWP only store.

The store, now as a mix Win32/UWP sandbox and the ongoing replacement of Win32 legacy APIs by UWP ones is pretty much alive.

In fact React Native for Windows is being rewritten to use UWP APIs, using WinUI 3.0, which is also the official MFC replacement for C++ devs.
What happens to quality assurance when malware starts modifying systems? When malware starts modifying systems that have already been modified by other malware? Seems like a mutual game of Russian Roulette. Any attack that is not perfectly executed risks harming the system, even if the malware is never activated. This happens all the time with software upgrades that have been vetted. Are the spies doing regression analysis on the effects of their implants to make sure they don't accidentally break something?

I don't use these drugs but it's a good thing for our society if they are available cheap and clean to people who want/need them.

They should be sold behind the counter from pharmacies and not allowed to be advertised, same as cigarettes in Australia.

When drugs are illegal it results in crime and health issues.

I am dumbfounded that uBlock Origin, arguably the single most important extension in modern web browsing, and one that makes millions of lives easier by making their web experience bearable at all, all of this depends on one single person, working for free.

In which case framing the test as “technical interview” would be a bit dishonest. You should name it “stress environment coping test”.

But anyway you are right those moments do happen, but those times it’s usually “all hands on deck” kind of event where people are actively trying to help each other. Those are actually “fun” in a sense since you actually feel needed and encouraged rather than judged and scrutinized.

And each time something like this happens, it usually means a failure of the company process as a whole. Can expect it from startups but definitely not from big companies. So if you honestly want to test that out for a candidate, it puts a huge red flag for him that said company is mismanaged.

In effect you’re filtering for people that don’t know this - e.g. junior devs, or people who don’t care / tolerate it, so they won’t attempt to fix the mismanagement that allowed it to happen, the last thing you would want probably.

Thinking about it you could even stage such a contrived stress test, and actually hire people that _do_ flip out as those would probably be the ones that care enough to fix longstanding issues.
They're trying to have their cake and eat it too. Most companies would probably do the same given the same circumstances. It's disappointing but predictable.

I'm not sure how my re-statement of your initial comment is any different from what you are saying, but regardless, I still disagree with the idea that "rational depends on perspective".

Internal inconsistency can be objectively measured: "you said you wanted pizza but now you are ordering a burger". I would argue that internal inconsistency is the opposite of rational behavior. Therefore, if mental illness causes internal inconsistencies, it is causing irrational behavior.

Having a mental illness doesn't mean that purported goals cease to exist. You can still ask a person with schizophrenia "what do you want", and they will give you an answer, because they are a person and not an animal.

Taking this back to TempleOS: Terry seemed to want to be known as the greatest programmer on earth. At the same time, his mental illness caused frequent outbursts that were off-putting to many people. It is hard to have a positive reputation as the greatest programmer when your behavior pushes people away from you. I would qualify such an inconsistency as "irrational", would you not? Using racial slurs in an online outburst is not "rational" behavior if your goal is to be respected as an amazing programmer.
This is indeed true. I find it quite surprising that most Chinese people in PRC believe that it will, though. I suppose one can have 5000 years of cultural history but that does not imply that lessons have been learned.
Agree with this smaller pain point in the vast peace of mind that CSS Modules bring.

I try to simplify as much as possible to a single word and repeat them a lot since there’s no collision, so you can usually expect a .container, .items, .item in most components, all top level but SASS helping with other annoyances like pseudo selectors, parents and nesting where it makes sense.
There's a lot of luck and a lot of pareto distributions for software development. There is no straightforward relationship between effectiveness and profit like there is for other careers (e.g. sales).
Coffee and herbal teas may not be as beneficial during fasting, because as you said, they may be more "substantial".

I was watching a compilation clip about intermittent fasting [0] recently. According to Dr. Rhonda Patrick, coffee and other drinks than just plain water (and maybe vitamins and supplements as well?) break the fast by starting up some metabolic enzymes [1][2].

I guess there goes my round the clock tea gulping. :|

You’re misattributing the cause of the stress. Any competitive job opening is intrinsically going to be stressful because there are there are X people interviewing for 1 position and you have to outperform the other (X-1) candidates. The interview format is irrelevant. The only “non stressful” way to do an interview is to hand out $500k/year job offers to every warm bodies that hands you their resume, no questions asked. Sorry, but that’s not going to happen.
Eh, Feynman put a lot of effort into caring about what other people thought for his whole life. As Murray Gell-Mann said in his obituary, “He surrounded himself with a cloud of myth, and he spent a great deal of time and energy generating anecdotes about himself.”
Except:

1. The job of Safari isn't to be everything to everyone.

2. Most tech enthusiasts just install Firefox or Chrome anyway.

3. Your web browser is by far the most critical aspect of computer security for most users. It controls the entire trust chain between yourself and your online bank. Your browser validates the security certificates. Your browser decides what to do with the passwords you enter. Your browser decides what to show in the address bar.

4. We know that most casual web users have suffered great privacy violations from dodgy add-ons, either by disguising itself as a useful tool or via drive-by installation. This isn't a hypothetical fear. It's very real.

5. Apple's unique selling point is privacy and security. Anything they can do to ensure that your grandmother's browser isn't compromised should be prioritised and applauded.

6. You can add untrusted extensions using the Extension Builder by obtaining a free cryptographic certificate from Apple. It's not trivial but it's just the right amount of onerous to stop your grandmother from being defrauded.

Interestingly, ragtime had been out of fashion for 20+ years by the time of The Sting's setting (early 1930's). I also love ragtime and associate it with The Sting as well though, it's just amusing to think that our association between the music and the era was made up by George Roy Hill.

And now we're in full-blown sorites paradox mode, where the goalpost keeps changing. At first it was "repeated harassment" and now it's "incite to dox and harass." It's now okay for John Oliver to go after organizations -- even though he very clearly goes after the President (not to mention Gorsuch and Kavanaugh) on a fairly regular basis. As I hope you can see by this point, due to the originally-used ambiguous predicates, this is a fruitless line of argumentation.

By the way, even some cursory research would show that Crowder is extremely clear about his views on not harassing or doxxing, but it's clear that you haven't even done me (your opponent in this debate) the courtesy of some basic knowledge-gathering.

I do agree that Crowder is an asshole. I also think that assholes have a right to be assholes as long as their behavior doesn't violate Mill's Harm Principle.
Freedom of speech has always been qualified, and this argument does not change it. At best it succeeds in arguing for free speech restricted to certain platforms, and the hate speech laws still allow for free speech to private audiences.

I'll just refute the points you have summarized here since I have no interest in listening to the entire speech to just extract the argumentative points he makes.

The first argument doesn't make much sense. If I have terrible views but do not want to communicate them it is my right to be silent, but if this argument passes I am infringing on the rights of my potential listeners. If I choose to discuss my views to an exclusive membership, I am infringing on their rights as well.

Similarly, IP and copyright laws infringe on this right since they limit the audience of a work.

Second, just as most people we can agree that certain substances are harmful and should be made difficult to distribute, similarly most people can agree that some thoughts are harmful and should be made difficult to communicate. The question isn't a matter of whether to censor or not, but the degree and topics.

The final argument, similarly, does not pass for general spaces. Christians and Muslims do not think that the more icky parts of their texts should be read by children without appropriate direction. Neither would want a terrible passage displayed out in the open for their children to see. Some may even have an interest in restricting it, so as to prevent a critic appropriating their text to portray them in a bad light. Academics do not think that immoral should be read by children without proper direction.

I wouldn't consider OP to be "socially awkward", though I do agree with your point that they seem disinterested in playing the "conversation game". Unfortunately, that's likely what's hurting them the most.

If a candidate isn't fun or interesting to talk to, it comes across to the interviewer as though they are annoyed, bitter, or apathetic about the position.
I recently considered cloud backup for my photos; could easily have paid for 2TB of Google Drive however Google's reputation in the past couple of years has really nosedived (in my eyes). I don't trust them anymore, they'll just eff up most things I like - eventually.

So went with the Norwegian Jottacloud. Looks quite good, performs well even from down under - uploaded 1.1TB in just a few days.

I have a lot of RAW images; their photo browser displays them fine, however they could do well to update the navigation a bit as it is cumbersome to jump say 15 years back in time.

Edit: It's still amazing to see my collection of NEFs and phone dumps (I clean our phones once or twice a year by moving all photos to the NAS) organised by time, extracted from the dark depths of my NAS drive folder hierarchies.
