A Life of Learning by Harry G. Frankfurt
The relevant time is from whatever the transport hub is to the destination. The people who live a few stops from Heathrow on the Piccadilly line can get there pretty quickly but that is not a useful measure. I chose Penn Station because that's where the LIRR currently leaves from. The Wikipedia article talks about how a direct train line was planned but didn't eventuate.

I can't agree that NYC has well designed public transportation. Metro North, the other train line I have experience with, is also dreadfully slow. The subway is old, dirty, and has poor signage.
Fair enough. In this case it seems like it was intended as a joke, but I could see somebody actually getting offended.

Also upon rereading my comment, I hope it didn't come across as condescending in any way, I didn't mean it to but it does line of read that way.

Roads which could in theory be built underground at extreme expense. Losing that land is cost effective, but that does not mean it's free, just a hidden opportunity cost. Further, subway systems also increase property values, that’s rarely considered part of the equation.
The check happens at a lower level than the Finder, I believe.

I think it checks things with the quarantine flag set on the executable or app. This is set by your browser and other similar software when downloading an app. Once cleared, the notarization check isn't done.

Brew doesn't set the quarantine flag in the first place as far as I know.

Minor correction about Iraq: ethnicity isn't that big a deal, religion is. Saddam and his government were Sunni muslims, the majority (2:1) are Shiite (both are predominately Arabs), with other tiny minorities making up the rest (Kurdish, Yezidi etc).

Yes! With modern systems, if you want to give poor riders reduced fares you can… give poor riders reduced fares. It's not hard. Just program the contactless system to do it. There are no real arguments for using flat fares in NYC besides tradition (which is not nothing). No one designing a system today would choose it for a system the size of NYC's.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I think it's important to recognize that most of us fall into one of two buckets that are considered "normal" wrt. our sex and gender. If you don't fall into one of those two buckets, you are going to feel tension externally, in the ways other people interact with you, and internally insofar as you've internalized societal sex/gender norms, which is hard to avoid doing when you've lived in society your whole life.

So really it is not so much about looking for a problem ("I've decided to hang my identity on my gender") as it is about having to solve a problem that most people (including you) don't have ("I'm in the wrong body"). It's a distressing problem to have, and not an easy one to solve.
Agree with the notion that turning standup into a static status meeting is a poor use of time. If you're blocked you should speak up. If the team wants to know the state of your work, they should defer to project management tool. That said, "standup" is less to do with what you did or immediate blockers. It's about planning for the day. "Here's what's going to get done today, and here's the relevant information for my team." It's a tool for synchronizing, getting on the same page, setting you and your team up for success on a daily basis.

If you don't feel like that's the case, you're probably right in that going async would be a better use of your time. I suspect this is a process dysfunction that has less to do with standup and more to do with a misunderstanding of the value proposition associated with a properly executed standup.

Edit: not everything is an immediate "oh sh*t" type of blocker. If you're working in a collaborative organization, you most like have "low tier" blockers or knowledge that can and should be shared with the team. Face to face makes this easy.

I agree. After I graduated from college my first boss at work gave me a square deal notebook and told me to take a page of notes each day recording important details of what I worked in. This helped me HUGELY.

I am retired now but in my last job managing a machine learning team at Capital One, I did the same thing except using Emacs and org mode, like recording good things that my reports did for their reviews, meeting notes (usually written up after the fact), tech ideas, etc.

I also take notes on vacations, good recipes I run across, etc.

EDIT: I think the act of writing things down helps my memory, regardless of future use of notes.

It's always about control under the pretense of security. Rights to privacy can be violated and dismissed, but good encryption itself cannot. Encryption is the last frontier of privacy, and we must defend it vigorously.

Encryption, like any tool, can be used to do good things and bad things, stop blaming the tool for the user's behavior. Law enforcement agencies will need to adapt to that reality instead of using a blanket ban or backdoors into everyone's lives under the pretense that there are bad people out there and to think of the children™ excuse that has been used and abused over and over again.

I think the US would benefit from such a policy, and it did exist for a short spell around 2000.

With regards to air transportation, I would think that most traffic flows more north-south and less east-west, so I'm not sure how many airlines can survive given Canada's population and the distribution thereof. Certainly we do have some 'regionals', Porter out of CYTZ being fairly well-known.
I'm not gay, but I'm chronically mentally ill. I get (a version of, at least) the whole closet thing.

But here's the nub: the mental illness belongs to some contexts (therapist, friends, intimate relationship) and not others (trying to sell a project to a client).

The part about preferred pronouns feels a little too abstract and counterproductive. This is a personal feeling, coming from a personal interpretation of sources of wisdom. And it's not because it makes other people react in this or that way -- the point is not conquering the Other, you can't do this anyway. It's about how you set about to cope with the world and grow with it; how you deal with your own subjectivity.

Maybe I'm wrong. It's a very different minoritarian perspective.

Counterpoint: food courts are terrible and the food in these places is typically good, varied, and wonderful. Of course they would win over chain food courts. It’s nice to have variety. I don’t understand why the author has to insert this random, anecdotal hypothesis looking toward yesteryear.

That said - abusive lease terms are no good. Definitely would read the lease before signing!
This whole article feels like they're trying to brew trouble that isn't really there. They compare cost per sqft of rental space in a food hall, which they admin includes many extra things related to running the surrounding food hall (including build out, sanitary maintenance, etc) to renting empty business space and claims the food hall is expensive. They admit that many vendors found the food hall to be productive for their businesses, yet focus on the ones that failed without citing any comparison to success / failure rates of similar opportunities like food trucks or traditional restaurants. There's also vague criticisms about a misalignment between how the hall is marketed to visitors (creative, artisan) vs the pressures put on the vendors (simple to produce foods, low time-to-table), but this is nothing unique to food halls. Every restaurant wants high-throughput with the appearance of top quality food. Overall, strong meh from me.

You should read the actual study [1] then. E.g. "when news on the Panama

week of December 5th, 2016) — two of the highest news peaks during the experiment — Group-AE students
increased their weekly browsing time on the New York Times by 157% and 180% compared to their average

You are discarding the kidnapping of five HK nationals from HK which alone would be enough to spark a major international incident anywhere else. You were given the evidence that you asked for and your only response is to ask for more of the same and double down on your viewpoint despite it being contradicted by the information you were just given.

Would you reconsider your viewpoint even if you were given an entire essay detailing everything you just asked for? If you can honestly say yes, I'll consider it. But I have a feeling there isn't enough evidence in the world for you.

I can't reconcile your comments with conscionable good-faith behaviour that's commonplace on HN.

Yes, distractions are not great - but communicating with your team is important. Even if the manager is not there the team does it and they do it usually < 5 minutes. Some days I literally don't talk to my team except for that 5 minutes.

But as a leader you want to make sure the team is rowing the same direction - it doesn't matter if it takes you longer on a ticket but it also helps in a team to know what others are working on in case you end up working on it later yourself. (We discussed at standup to implement it X way because of Y factors).

Many engineers (myself included) don't like asking others for help. But guess what when someone says they are stuck - it is easy to point them to a person or direction and not waste time debugging a problem already solved in the past.

If they were so horrible and unproductive, managers (who mostly were engineers in the past would get rid of them).
Right, this is what I fear somewhat as well, especially more on the mental than physical side. I'm very cognizant of the fact that people have complained about the latest tech ruining society since the time of Socrates (who apparently railed against how the written language was ruining everything vs the oral memorization style of teaching and learning that came before), and yet we're all still here and doing ok.

But that being said, my personal observations of the communications and social interactions of kids and very young adults these days scares me a bit because it seriously lacks depth. People are growing up optimizing their behavior and brains (including socially) for the internet of memes, soundbites, and impermanence, and not for the "real" human world of meaningful and fruitful long-term human connections.

I'm not a believer in an artificial future singularity point, but this stuff sure looks a lot like what a singularity-believer would expect: the early stages of a trend away from humans as individual thinkers with higher-bandwidth/quality interpersonal interactions, and towards interactions that are very light and content-free because they're just the unthinking synapse firings of some larger emergent consciousness in the form of overlapping memetic mobs of humans. Perhaps this has a role in explaining political polarization/isolation as well?
I just started learning and using Nim[0] (which recently hit release 1.0), this language appears to be very similar - statically typed, can use llvm, cross-compile, similar looking syntax. I'll be keeping an eye on this language as it looks like it will pair well with Rust. Looking forward to seeing some documentation. Keep up the good work!

No, from what I understand this only affects binaries through Gatekeeper. Gatekeeper is “opt-in”—sort of. The way it works is that your web browser has an option “LSFileQuarantineEnabled” set in the bundle, and this makes it so files it creates have the “com.apple.quarantine” extended attribute on them by default. This attribute is propagated when you extract archives. When you open a program with the quarantine bit, you get the Gatekeeper warning.

All MacPorts has to do is either avoid setting the quarantine bit in the first place (easy enough) or remove it. The quarantine bit is nothing more than an xattr called “com.apple.quarantine” which you can inspect or remove with the xattr tool.
Whether someone is overqualified or overpaid depends on the other people available to do the job. For librarians, MA is not overqualified. It is qualified. As for $25/hr, the point of my argument was that in most of the USA, $25/hr is not an extravagant wage. It's pretty solidly middle class. It would be a lot if you're 22 and not much if you're 55. It's weird if rural America, this is consider "too much" for a head librarian. That shows that rural wages are way out of line with urban wages.

Also the bike-sharing system has run very poorly last year, when they switched to the existing operator (because Hidalgo didn't like JCDecaux) to a no-name startup who had done nothing on that scale.

They simply get used to it.
It's not a cash grab; it's a power grab.

By introducing themselves as gatekeepers, they can analyse software and reject it. For example, if they decide to deprecate an API, they can decline to notarise any software that uses it.

The thin end of the wedge is, of course, free notarisation with few limitations. Then once that is in place, they can increase their power to the level they enjoy in the iPhone app store.
