Two things surprised me about burnout:

1. It has physical symptoms.

2. It doesn't go away when you stop.

Vacation is good. But two weeks after my vacation I had a rough couple of days, nothing that I couldn't handle before, and I was right back where I started.

I've come to think of it like a mental equivalent of a torn muscle. Recovery takes time—probably far more time than I expect, and if you overexert it, even a little, you'll do a lot more damage a lot faster than you did the first time around.

The impression I get from the US is that inter-city passenger rail is usually an afterthought tacked onto a massive freight network. You travel the same speed as whatever cargo is being transported, never mind that it takes longer and costs more than an equivalent bus route.

I think realistically that level of surveillance is going to be needed to keep people safe and accountable on public transport somewhere like the Bay Area where people are very vulnerable.
No, with the rising amount of increasingly brazen crime on Bart (I just saw a photo yesterday from a mutual acquaintance who has his face smashed in over a laptop bag) they need to add more deterrence in the form of better fare gates, increased police presence, and very obvious surveillance mechanisms. I value privacy but of the many places it should take precedence, public transit in a dangerous city isn’t one of them.

To get each of the signs officially signed off with formal budgets and professional designers allocated, I would imagine the administrative red tape involved (in a large, old Japanese enterprise) would take long enough to make the sign obsolete by the time it got the OK from everyone. Sato just keeps making signs on the spot where he notices a need for them, and rips them off when they're no longer necessary.

To me, this is not extremely long range, in comparison to a Pactor modem over HF, which can reach over 1000 miles, as I've seen on a sailboat passage from Hawaii to California. It requires more power - 150 watts or so, if I recall correctly, and bit rates can be low as a few bits (not bytes) per second with poor propagation. Being able to stay in contact with family in the middle of the Pacific Ocean is pretty awesome.
Intellectual Debt: With Great Power Comes Great Ignorance (2018)
Exactly.

Taking microservices as an example, once people are using it, they have to reinvent all kinds of ideas in a distributed way - distributed service registration, distributed stack trace, distributed process managing, stream processing etc. But really, there are almost no new ideas, even if there are, there must be someone already tried that a lot of times in Erlang.

The fact is very few people really tries to learn programming. This makes people who really learn experiencing the same frustration you've mentioned. If everyone tries hard to learn all programming concepts they've found, we've all been using fully dependent type languages with magical IDEs 100x powerful than Intellij right now.

In fact, most people are just driven by the market, and just learn randomly. Even a lot of senior Java programmers who mention SOLID occasionally don't really understand covariance and contravariance, thinking and struggling inside the box of their language everyday.

Wow, really? I'm not your average Democrat.

How about this though: Do you believe that of people making more than $250,000 most are Republican?

And: Do you believe that among those that identify as LGBQT most are Democrat?
Vanguard offers a number of exchange traded funds in Europe domiciled in Ireland.

There are funds in base currencies of USD, EUR and GBP and traded on number of exchanges across Europe in several currencies.

Someone looking for exposure to Europe could get that through one of the Vanguard FTSE Developed Europe funds - they’re available including or excluding UK and in accumulating or distributing versions.

Very easy to buy just submit an order on the market. I personally use Interactive Brokers and buy on London Stock Exchange but any broker that gives you access to one of the major European exchanges should do.

You can burnout and be wealthy or ‘rich’. Having money isn’t going to cure psychological issues that aren’t addressed. People set goals and need to accomplish goals to feel worth. If you’re burning yourself out purely to get ‘rich’ you should probably invest in lotto tickets instead.
From the article: "...things kicked off when another passenger appeared dressed as a clown. This upset one of their party because they’d specifically booked a cruise with no fancy dress."

For some reason classifying a clown costume as "fancy dress" tickles me.
I wonder how well the questions distinguish between opinions about other voters’ opinions, and the actions of people that are elected.

For instance, with recent gerrymandering decisions from the Supreme Court, and Mitch McConnell’s blocking of bipartisan election security funding, it is easy to infer that a majority of Republican representatives in many elected bodies are against fair elections.

I doubt that many voters are against the right to have their votes counted fairly.
I honestly think this is mostly irrelevant. As a liberal, I don't really care about what Republicans claim to believe or what their demographics really look like. All that matters is who they vote for and what that does to the country. If Republican voters actually have a moderate view of immigration, that's great, but they voted for a guy who is putting migrants in cages. Therefore, they all support putting migrants in cages. They could fix that by changing who they vote for, but they haven't done so. I consider this policy to be reprehensible, so how can I not consider Republican voters to be reprehensible?

I won’t answer these assertions as to not spoil the thought exercise for others, but I’m curious: what are the answers?

I took a cruise of the Mediterranean with family and loved every bit of it. Most of the time, the ship was just a magical hotel room you returned to after a long day exploring and woke up in another amazing city.

We planned most excursions ourselves with local companies and they were all excellent experiences.

I don't worry about overpaying while shopping on vacation because I don't go on vacation to shop.
That may be worth a lot of money due to perceived value being the thing that gives it worth, versus aesthetics or whatever you get out of looking at a painting.
I agree -- it seems like it's easy to get a degree without being challenged in writing. I remember 3 writing teachers that challenged me, giving me mediocre/bad grades, and in retrospect I appreciate that.

But I think good writing requires a bit of empathy, and that's something that's hard to teach.

Most bad technical writing I see fails to define the terms it uses (or uses them sloppily). That's a failure of empathy -- I know this word so I assume everyone else does. I know what I mean by "design" so I assume everyone else does.

Another way to phrase it is the "curse of knowledge". Once people have some knowledge, it's hard for them to imagine that somebody else doesn't have it. Without that imagination, you can't write about clearly.

And a lot of the times people don't believe a claim is true because of "reasoning". They believe it because they heard someone they trust say it, or it was repeated on TV or online until it stuck. (I don't claim to be exempt from that, but I can reflect on whether I have direct experience or it’s hearsay.)
Likewise signatures.

> That sounds exactly the same as the thing you do when caching a HTTP request to me..?

ETag, Is-Modified-Since, Last-Modified, Cache-Control don't require any parsing of the request body.

And the relevance is huge. It's one thing to match a resource id in a URL in an idempotent cacheable request. It's another to have request body fully parsed by a caching middleware layer in a non-idempotent non-cacheable request.

> I think you are just annoyed that they misappropriated HTTP to do it.

They looked at HTTP and threw out everything HTTP already has built in. And all the tools.
This is a ridiculous assertion. In USA, you're typically given two choices realistically. If you agree with more points of what is important to you, you vote for them. By no means is who you vote for a complete representation of yourself.
PHP performance is still a pig, which is pasted over by various caching behaviours (for example in OS). I have to deal with making HA for a PHP site whose design precludes keeping read-only copies of PHP code, and have to load them form NFS... let's just say that even with php.ini tweaks it involves pretty much constant reads of code.

Add in the serious consequences of mistakes. The limited supply of subjects. The difficulty of grading the success of any modification.

If you actually feel fine, then of course therapy isn’t likely to do much for you. The idea is if you’re feeling terrible enough to evaluate yourself, but it turns out you likely aren’t suffering from burnout, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look into therapy. Often people think they are suffering from burnout, but it turns out they actually have underlying trauma, anxiety, depression, etc. unrelated to work stress.

I just got back from my first cruise, which I was excited for but had no real idea of what to expect or whether I'd enjoy it. For context, I suffer from pretty extreme anxiety and seriously dislike crowds of people. I also have a 19-month-old, who came with us on the cruise. Here are my thoughts:

I cruised on the Disney Dream, one of their newest ships. Everywhere you looked, there was some awesome detail that you'd likely miss if you weren't paying attention. From the hidden Mickeys in the tiles of the bathrooms, to the way they laid out their private island (which only ever has one ship docked at a time) so as to minimize congestion.

There were only two times I felt it was crowded: the breakfast buffet and debarkation. The former could've been avoided by more clever design of the area, the latter could've been avoided by staggering the debarkation times rather than adding pressure to get you off the ship so that they could turn it around for the next cruise (which embarked that afternoon!)

I never felt pressured to go do anything. If I didn't want to go to dinner, I could just order room service, which was quick, 24 hours, and completely included in the ticket price. If I didn't really want to be off the boat, I could get back on at any time -- or just not get off at all. There were so many things that we could do if we wanted to, but didn't have to; I appreciated that.

Being disconnected from the interwebs for a week was amazing. I know I could get that from camping or somesuch, but there's something about being completely disconnected from the outside world but still having the luxuries of 2019 that speaks to me and my laziness.

The nursery was great. My daughter had never been in daycare or anything of the sort, so we were nervous about it, but she absolutely loved it. It was convenient and let my wife and I go have a nice date night onboard, kid-free.

Everyone bent over backwards to help in any way they could, and any request we had was taken seriously. Whether it was getting my daughter a hot dog each night at dinner (which wasn't on the menu, but they accomodated just fine -- since she wouldn't eat anything else), having our drinks ready for us as soon as we arrived, getting us ear plugs, or anything else that may have come up.

There were a million other little things that I (and my family) enjoyed about this, but suffice it to say, this will be at least an annual thing for us now; my wife and I are even talking about doing one cruise with the kid and one without, each year, just because we enjoyed it so much.
I learned that some of my family with Trump stickers are basically socialists, they just don’t realize it. When you start talking to them about the things they’re happy their local government does, it’s all safety net and arts.

Wouldn't it be more efficient to put the risk on the bank, so that it is the bank that seeks insurance to cover that risk?

As a consumer, I have no idea what the risks of a safe deposit box are, and so have no idea what I need in the way of insurance to cover those risks.

The bank, on the other hand, has real data about the safety of their safe deposit boxes, and the value of loses when those boxes are compromised.
TFA suggests "how [you] talk online is determined by [your] linguistic community, which in turn is largely determined by where [you] were when [you] first encountered social media".

So, I'd guess you and your group were online relatively early, and the places where you did that probably had a relatively straightforward, text-only communications culture.

It's likely that people in that group code-switch and use newer tools and embellishments in other places where they communicate.

Interestingly, Stack Overflow is using several of those tricks to speed up their internal services, as the kernel-side HTTP server is made available to everyone, it's not locked to MS applications. AFAIK they have few "microservices" which don't use IIS but handle HTTP through HTTP.sys

I used to think this way in my '20s, but started to see the appeal in my late '30s. It can be hard to arrange a trip between two working professionals, what with work deadlines, etc. It would have been nice to just get away for a week with no great preparation or min/maxing required. Just throw money at the problem. That said ... I've never been on a cruise.
Also makes it so there are harder cultural edges to distinguish groups and people can't move between them as easily either.
Holy crap! That was it.

There is nothing in the T&Cs to say you may not use an ad blocker, what planet are they on to think that breaking their sign up process if you do have an ad blocker is a good idea?

Edit: my viewpoint is applicable to public APIs. If your client(s) and your backend are under your control, then GraphQL is useful.

> The solution to ad-hoc queries is to not use ad-hoc queries. Persisted queries are becoming common.

So, you either reinvent REST, or fall prey to ad-hoc queries with potentially unlimited complexity.

Also, persistent queries don't save you from unlimited complexity when those are automatically persisted, which is what Apollo offers.

> Caching is no harder in GraphQL than it is anywhere else. You define resolvers; if you want to put stuff in Redis, you're free to do so.

Putting stuff in Redis does not make it caching.

> You have complete control over what happens in a resolver, which includes authorising access and throwing an error/returning null/etc.

So, you throw an error in a deeply nested resolver in an ad-hoc query with unknown complexity, and .... this is "no harder"?

> many of whom appear to think paying for software in any fashion is almost unthinkable.

I still don't see how the fault lies with the customer. Look at all the software they get to use for free or cheap because the software shops made it available for free (with ads) or cheap ($.99 apps). This is not the customer's fault; they were trained to think this way.
This is rather virulent. As a liberal, I do not agree with you. I am sure there are human beings on the other side, and dialogue will help. Baseline thinking is not always relevant. In fact, I believe it is through the moderates on the other side that you can find a reasonable middle ground.
I have never been burned out, but I think I would have been. I did a couple stints at various places (non dev work) where I was pretty excited to continue working and get higher in the org. Fortunately for me they were co-ops which ended and allowed me to see that, retrospectively, they kind of sucked, were not especially fruitful career tracks, and would have ground me down after a year or so. It’s really hard to check yourself while engaged and working on something.

They could fix that by changing who they vote for, but they haven't done so. I consider this policy to be reprehensible, so how can I not consider Republican voters to be reprehensible?

Except the previous President did the exact same. It's already long since come out that the people in cages photos that so enraged everyone last year were from 2014. Democrats voted for a guy who did that too then.

How do you reconcile this hypocrisy?
