Why did Moses et al. take 40 years to move from Egypt to Canaan? (about 200 miles)
Without knowing the numbers, location, family (ability to move city/country), experience level etc. It is hard to say.

But most likely the best bet is to find out how you can earn more money from those core 40h/week. Best for you to come up with a strategy based on your circumstances and tolerances. There is a lot of good advice in HN if you search on https://hn.algolia.com. And look for patio11 posts, as he has posted alot about money and getting more of it. I think the golden nugget is don't tell a future employer what you are earning now. My advice - don't be embarrassed to be earning double what you are earning now for doing the same thing somewhere else.

Options to think about: Contracting, Skills that pay more (React?), Companies that can pay more (trading companies? FAANG companies?), Cities that pay more, Countries that pay more, Roles that pay more (management, architect), Negotiation with current employer (will they pay more if you say you might leave).

Don't trade your spare time for money. Trade time for making your time worth more money.

Also maybe cut your expenses more? The only time I've been in your situation as a dev is with a non working partner to support. If you are single, consider living in a shared house for example. Also I'm not a big earning like a lot of the HN crowd.

I met Toni Morrison when I was 12. She was kinda rude to me, I wonder if it’s because I didn’t see her as anything but an accomplished author. I’ve always wondered about that moment if she intentionally was rude or was just anxious from being in the spotlight at the time. I don’t know why I thought during all these years that I would get to meet her again.. I was planning to be more adept at conversation with her. Correlate coding to historic writings.. but this post is a sobering wake up call.

Phone your mum, tell her you love her. My mom was inspired by Toni Morrison.

Right, Ukraine applied and NATO responded with a Membership Action Plan, it clearly would not have done that if it didn’t want Ukraine as a member.

Really Ukraine should have made NATO membership a condition of giving up its nukes when the USSR collapsed.

The husband of Jeanne Calment was a rich merchant, a very social job, highly exposed in a small city. That not a single person in the city would have noticed a switch between the 2 especially during the funeral of her daughter is very very unlikely.

I've also switched, after my 1 year old Samsung S8 brick phone dropped to the floor one time too often.

Compared to Samsung's, my typing speed is up, but it's true that autocomplete suggestions are useless.

Use a stolen credit card/identity to buy an iPhone on contract. You can walk out of the store with the phone that day and never pay AT&T another dime.

Use this shady service to unlock without paying off the contract, and resell on the second-hand market.

If an iPhone costs $1k, maybe you paid $100 to get it out the door, then you can still make hundreds of dollars selling it.

I would not say Trump's a fascist, but there are some really bad elements of fascism Trump does embrace.

He does not believe in the checks and balances of government, preferring the executive branch to not have to answer to directives from other branches. This is at least the message he sends out to his base when he tweets that he'll ignore a Supreme Court ruling or a House subpoena.
He does not believe that the justice system should be independent of the executive branch, admitting that the Russia investigation was a factor in firing an FBI director and having instructed members of his staff to try to interfer in investigations, if the Mueller report is to be believed.
He places a very strong emphasis on national unity and uses language which excludes people from this national identity.

Now, there are plenty of things he does though that is incompatible with the strict definition of fascism. He clearly does not favor a mixed economy and instead prefers not to regulate it (but he does favor national self sufficiency, which was a big part of early 20th century fascism, but not even close to degree of "if the nation needs something we don't have, let's expand"), he has not tried to use the education system to strengthen the national identity (in contrast to Russia or Turkey for example), has not engaged in "moral hygiene" preachings and ... I could go on, he does not embrace all the core tenets of fascism but he does incorporate several troubling elements of it.

An idea that may address the security concerns:

- an open-source client that symmetrically encrypts the output with a random key before sending it to the server (obviously, the key is not being sent),

- the key is appended after # in the URL, so it’s only available to the browser,

- client-side decryption in JS.
Let's just toss out all physics pre 2000 because it's old. lol. Truth doesn't age. Just using ITER as an example. I can update that link with a Commonwealth one in a few years I suppose.

Manufacturability is a function of a lot of things like parts, systems, interactions, size, mass, supply chain, transportability, etc. Generally speaking, more complex things are less manufacturable and they become manufacturable by simplification and reduction. As a kind of measure of manufacturability, look at the cost. Think about the most expensive piece of technology that is mass manufactured today. It's probably the 777 or 737 - so price tag on order <$100M. Big ships are on order $10Ms. Maybe military procurement goes into the $500M, but those are low quantity and generally failed programs.

So if it's more than $100M and much more complicated than a wide body aircraft, today's economy and technology level is probably not going to be able to mass manufacture it.

The size and complexity of these fusion systems is physically constrained by various factors many of which are physics limited. And even with the innovations they propose but have yet to prove out, the size and complexity is still too large to manufacture.

Regarding fusion's proliferation risk: "One of the best ways to produce material for atomic weapons would be to put common, natural uranium or thorium in the blanket of a D-T reactor, where the fusion neu- trons would soon transform it to weapons- grade material. And tritium, an unavoidable product of the reactor; is used in some hydro- gen bombs. In the early years, research on D-T fusion was classified precisely because it would provide a ready source of material for weapons."
This feels like it fails the sniff test for me. The UK is currently getting about 1/3 of its electricity from renewable sources[0]; my understanding is that variability is the reason it's not getting more, and people seem pretty bullish about improvements in battery tech. Does the UK have such unique geography?

Absolutely.

Einstein is a bit famous for punching well above his weight compared to his own mathematical background. Most of his great work involves beautiful arguments that requiring only maths that a good-but-not-genius high school student could understand.

The GR paper is a bit disappointing in comparison, because after setting out as much as he can of the physics, he just dives into big equations one after another. That probably roughly follows his own trajectory: first he had some intuition for how space-time curvature could cause some gravity-like effects. But to nail it down he just had to buckle-up and learn the mathematics of non-euclidean geometry.

The nice thing about the paper is that it was one of the first applications of such mathematics to physics, so Einstein takes the time to explain it (which also blows out the equation count).

The point I made in my reply is that this tool won't save you from those meetings and rounds of changes. As it'll speed up the coding side of the iterative development process by making exactly what the client has described rather than the developer using their experience to build what the client actually wants, there'll have be more meetings in order to get to what the client really needs.

The benefit of automating the production of code is useful, and plenty of people would want that, but targeting the messaging at developers isn't going to work. I would have thought selling this tool to people who employ developers as a way to reduce the number of people they need is a far better route to market.

I know this is not the focus of the article, but this statement reads like someone noticing something is going on outside their own comfy privileged bubble, and then concluding they know more about about it than the people who are in the middle of said events.

Sure, being able to step back and look at something from some distance is necessary to reflect and figure out what is going on, but I don't get the impression that that is what is happening here.

A larger market doesn't solve the inherent problem: people aren't interacting with your product. So first off, why aren't people interacting with your product? If you strip away all the supplementary features, you're left with the minimum viable product.

Are the MVP features getting interest & engagement? If so, it sounds like you need to double down on that and rethink those supplementary features. If not, you need to rethink your core features and figure out if it's due to execution or a false premise. If the MVP is solid on its own, you should have people wanting to use it and possibly even pay for it. If that's not the case even remotely, you might consider a pivot and maybe even a hard pivot. If you publicized it 2 years ago and launched 1 month ago, it sounds like your timing is off and you need to get that in order before you try to pivot.

We had our most annoying chat bug happen over and over. Users would get an unseen count and there would be no unseen messages behind it. And everyone's sort of used to seeing one of these numbers, click on it, you get something new behind it. That's exciting. But when they get that number, they click and there's nothing there, or they refresh the page and it's gone, that's really annoying. That's really frustrating... And it wasn't like we wouldn't fix the problem. We would always fix some particular edge case. But this problem would keep coming back just because the whole system was fragile.

2014. And still not fixed. Either flux/react does not automatically fix the problem, or the fix never made it to the app. Or dark patterns.

I've worked for customers in the past who did this. For the most part it was a huge hassle and didn't really help with incident response and analysis.

You have to install company root certificates on clients, perhaps even merely self-signed ones if they've been particularly cheap and lazy. Then traffic needs to be routed through a firewall / proxy as well.

This in turn can lead to issues with tools such as Maven or NPM. These issues can be hard to debug.

Besides, if you don't know what you're doing - and most companies don't specialise in network security - it's easy to get the setup wrong and create major security problems.

Sometimes the motivation isn't so much protection against malware but rather a petty desire to know what employees are doing.

For these reasons I'd strongly advise against this practice.

As for alternatives:

Follow and encourage the use of accepted best practices.

Educate and trust your employees about security.

I mentioned this article to my friend Michael who is currently hosting me at his farm in Umbria, and this was his reply:

"Interesting yes, too much of anything dulls the mind, even the best things can jade and wane if overindulged in.

One hour outside tying up tomato vines, weeding or watering balances out 10 trading memes on FB or watching YouTube tutorials, reading about myriad things as long as they are well written.

We need and crave variety, novelty and balance, while the culture nudges us towards monomania, tunnel thinking and hyper-specialisation, narrow casting in the data stream, all trees, no forest.
To zoom back out you need to let go of forward motion (or better, our notion of it) and be willing to stop using our will power for a few moments and see what's behind our ego's prideful play for perfection or power.

Basic thinking is a cool concept.

Unwinding complexity, seeking simpler, more elegantly energetic solutions to life's challenges, first to survive then to transform quantity into quality."

The history misses several salient steps, like Lorentz and Poincare describing special relativity before 1905. I guess if you want to describe the controversy of general relativity you might not want to get distracted by the controversy over special relativity... but a pattern starts to emerge.

Then the history leaves out Nordstrom's contributions to the theory of gravity which are really important if you are going to state that "It is indisputable that Hilbert, like all of his other colleagues, acknowledged Einstein as the sole creator of relativity theory," it seems Hilbert was simply willing to drop it. Almost all practitioners I am aware of are at the very least aware of the contributions of Marcel Grossman even if nobody knows about Nordstrom and others. It is a huge overstatement to say that Einstein was the sole creator.

Reading about the history of Nordstrom's theory of gravity is far more illuminating on the actual active research attempting to find a relativistic theory of gravity. In fact a student of Lorentz, Fokker, working with Einstein was able to show that Nordstrom's theory was equivalent to an expression involving the ricci scalar and a trace of the stress energy tensor. Unlike Einstein's proposal around this time, it was diffeomorphism invariant. It is likely this development, by Fokker, lead Einstein to propose the R_ij = 8\pi T_ij formulation he was pushing before the controversial period with Hilbert.

Why might this be important? Well people have a tendency to be interested in history. The extended history involving Hilbert, Nordstrom, Grossman and more is important because it is more illuminating to the reality of how physical theories are actually developed. It turns out that maybe Einstein doesn't deserve the level of hero worship he gets, which certain types of people may find invigorating. Also, this episode shows that petty squabbles and politics exist in "modern" science.
