Digging a ditch is not emotional labor, because "people feel good when they have the ditch they need". It is physical labor, because dig it.

It could have some part of emotional labor. It's hard, you have callouses on your hands, it's hot, your cloths are all dirty and sweaty, your co-diggers criticize your digging speed. You want to cry, you want to stop. You do emotional labor to keep going.
Privately it's org-mode all the way.

At work it's a mixture of mostly Confluence and Markdown README files.

What's worse is how many people blindly upvote negativity. It's still somehow cool to shit on things...
I skim because nearly everything is bloated with useless crud and the latest memetic faddery; because tech writers are always on the defensive vs pedants; because people with multiple arts degrees actually seem to get worse at writing, not better; because there are more things to see than ever, and less time available for any one of them.

How else are we supposed to manage the explore/exploit trade-off in the face of this galactic amount of information?
The difference is that things you learn stay with you for long, and things you're told rarely do.

Not sure how or why you would teach young people about general meaninglessness of most things. It's risky and could kill talents and inventions.

Finally people do not get interesting without making mistakes.
If you don't mind a sidequestion:

I have worked with and met with probably close to 100 start/scale-up companies in the software domain. I have not yet met a 'brogammer' shop. Some hipster dens, and yes, when the founder is a twenty something you will be hard pressed to find anyone over 30.

So is this 'brogrammer frathouse' a regional thing? Or is it maybe a B2C thing as I mostly work with B2B companies?
U used Monofur[0] as a programming font for the longest time since it differentiates the similar characters so well. In addition it's a nice friendly looking typeface with big round characters.

That said these days I mostly use fyra code.

Just my 2 cents, but in an online smartphone that I play, I notice that koreans are 10 times more fanatical than any other demographic. They seem to have ridiculous amounts of time to play the game on their hands and they take it extremely seriously and are very very competitive. The only other group that I saw that came close were Taiwanese people. The westerners in the game seem a lot less addicted and competitive.
Are you saying DOH does not affect client side ad blocking because it can be shut off?
Maybe SK is tackling these issues head on, but from my experience international news tend to always come with a <country> tag in the title, whereas local news comes with a <state or city> tag more accurately. It might be that some countries are doing federal level moves, but I have a feeling we get a foreigner perception bias as news we see from those countries get the country name appended to the title, even if it is a more local or regional phenomena. In the US for instance there might be similar things to the above, but it would read:

New York considers cryptocurrency tax | Californians lock themselves up to escape prison of daily life | The Suicides in Denver, and the Suicide of Denver

But when it comes from a foreign news source, it might contain the country name in the title, rather!

Again, not sure about SK here, but I’ve been curious how much our perceptions are biased by foreign news reaching us in a way that makes the reader think the entire country is doing something great, or terrible.

When companies are inefficient for a long time, it's usually because they managed to prevent competition. In this case, they successfully managed to bully the whole world, using the US government, into adopting rules created by US companies. (The idea that a sovereign country - say India - is forced to police 1.5 billion people to make sure they don't use Mickey Mouse in ways that would upset a company in a foreign country is insane. We don't normally care if people in Nigeria cook their leftovers in ways that upset a famous Italian pizzeria.)

Every time you find a problem with capitalism, stop and look again: you will find state intervention in the market, which is the opposite of capitalism. (Free trade between the involved parties, without the intervention of others.)

In this case, the problem starts at the root: copyright is by definition a state intervention in the market. It cannot exist in a free market, because it mandates that someone prevents you from using your own resources as you see fit (namely, copying a DVD you own on a computer you own, using electricity you're paying for).

Kinsella's "Against Intellectual Property" is probably the best resource point out the contradiction between Imaginary Property and the free market.

> SK competitiveness is second only to Japan and somewhat ahead of Chinese.

I'd rather say, South Korea's competitiveness is ahead of Japan but second to China.

Japan's competitiveness is definitely lower than Korea, that I'm sure.
Save it for the flock. I do not believe in Redemption, or Christ, or Allah, or anything. Even if making murderers rich 'works' it should only be taken into consideration if the benefits (to soceity) are exceptional, because the practice is morally bankrupt. It should never be advertised, of course.
I acknowledge your point but somewhat relatedly, my washing machine is just as advanced as it needs to be.
thanks a bunch! :D
Aren't dishwashers (and washer/dryers) the perfect example of automation that actually got widely adopted though? I'm sure those machines took a ton of R&D back in the day, but now they are ubiquitous because of how much effort they save.

The question is not one of how many phds you have to pay to see if it's possible to make something automated - it's whether the automation solves more pain than it creates, how big the demand is, and whether production of it can actually scale at profit. If it does, the research investment can be well worth it.
> But I don't care about any of that

OK, fair enough but then it's a different discussion and a different conclusion.

We can't really blame Javascript frameworks for a particular business that has decided to monetize its user base in a different way, by adding more features that are not widely used by their userbase.

Imgur can't exist in a vacuum, it's a business there is a whole team behind it.

Now we might question that whole business model as well and the whole internet supported by ads thing, but that is a whole different barrel of fish that is in my view not attributable to Javascript frameworks.
That just brings up another classic robotics joke. A robot is anything that doesn't work well, yet. Once it works, you give it a new name - like dishwasher.
I've never understood the pirate mentality as anything other than raging entitlement. If I have ever pirated anything, I certainly didn't do so out of any sense of righteousness, I'd have done it out of greed. No reason to dress it up like I'm some kind of hero.
> There are detailed structured fossils and strata on Earth that are billions of years old

Yes but that is not detectable from space, right? Also in Mars for example, without excavating specifically for fossils which I think hasn't been done yet, is there a way like certain geological structures that would remain intact after a billion years that would indicate life?

Exactly, and the way the parent didn't seem to fit into the 'culture' was by being older.

"Frathouse culture" is an euphemism for "group of mostly white young male people who exclude people who aren't like them" - because this is what fraternities literally are.

(Recall: by definition, fraternities are young, male, exclusive - and statistically, white).
Is there an org-mode editor besides Emacs that has a lower learning curve?
Well, even if you can do something by hand, there's a market for a gadget that will do it more conveniently. There is a market for food processors and rice cookers. I don't think Juicero is a good example of "stupid money" craze. Theranos is.
I would suggest a single source of truth.

In my marriage, it’s my wife’s google calendar.

My personal projects are in a single google doc with tags I search for. I document my personal projects because sometimes I do stupid stuff and wipe out my work on accident.

For work, We use confluence as the source. We have daily stand ups that go on there. For any screenshare 1v1s I create a quick doc to cover what we discussed. We have a global team and even documenting everything will not suffice and you will need to meet on a screenshare. Record it for later reference.

I’ve been leading trainng sessions and they basically are a little technical stuff but mainly processes and where to go when you run into a problem. The best way to force people to use your wiki is to take time off or become unavailable for whatever reason.
A rose by any other name is still a rose.

"I don't discriminate by age, only by gray hair!"

Um, no.
"Good morning," said the little prince.

"Good morning," said the merchant.

This was a merchant who sold pills that had been invented
to quench thirst. You need only swallow one pill a week,
and you would feel no need of anything to drink.

"Why are you selling those?" asked the little prince.

"Because they save a tremendous amount of time," said the
merchant. "Computations have been made by experts. With
these pills, you save fifty-three minutes in every week."

"And what do I do with those fifty-three minutes?"

"Anything you like..."

"As for me," said the little prince to himself, "if I had
fifty-three minutes to spend as I liked, I should walk at
my leisure toward a spring of fresh water."
I hate this as well — especially if it seems to be only about selling. I worked to lead various film crews and I can tell, that there is no correlation between how well somebody is able to sell themselves under pressure and the wuality of their work. If there was any relationship it is negative in proportion: the worst people I ever worked with were incredibly good at selling themselves to a degree you cold describe them as conmen (and it was always men). Coincidentally it was never their fault when they clearly didn’t manage to do their part.

That beeing said I still think it is good to give others a chance to get to know you. It happened multiple times to me that I found out only during a project just how humble some people have been — not mentioning things that would have instantly give them a pass.

Additional caveat: communications is a crucial skill to have in nearly any job and it is also a common point of failure in projects with more than one person ans any HR person worth their salary should be able to sieve out people who would hurt a project by beeing unable to communicate their ideas clearly.

I think if the process doesn’t you, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to tell them before coming to the interview: “I have condition XYZ and so it can happen that UVW. To allow you a truthful judgement of my work please consider looking at $PLACES”

That way a well meaning HR person has at least the chance of looking at you through with your unique context in the back of their mind.

Best thing to do is find a hotel through booking and then book directly. Many hotels give you a discount for it too, because they don't need to pay Booking.com.
But is that stress what got the kid to be better at art ? Obsessing over what others said led you to understand other people and yourself ? Taking your first job seriously built habits and earned you credit among your peers ?

I don't think acting like a 70 year old in 20s/30s/40s is wise - you're not retired with most of your accomplishments behind you.
White collar crimes often hurt nobody. The fact that they are both crimes does not make them in any way equivalent.
The consolidation the author is talking about is consolidation of defence aerospace contractors - Grumman, Northrup, McDonald Douglas and Boeing. McDonald Douglas was in some financial difficulties and the defence department encouraged the merger to keep them alive.
The janitor unlocking the doors in the morning is a cost centre but nothing would get done without one. I agree with the coiner that there are only cost centres.

However, close to the top of the pyramid is where the money is at. I think that's more important than whether it's core business or whatever.

Everyone just knows where they were all buried. The church owns almost all these graveyards so they stay around a long time.

Books are contracted often by number of pages. The essential information would fit onto a fraction of pages but printing houses order a certain amount of pages because otherwise the price couldn't be justified.
> CPU concurrency is definitely one of those issues.

Yes, and each new version actually adresses that, one step at a time. (see https://bugs.python.org/issue35813 for example).
I agree - she (generally speaking) seems open to finding out more about issues.

The other person who impressed me was Ricky Muir, from the motoring enthusiasts party who won a senate seat with 0.51% of the vote (via preference deals)[1].

He was very inarticulate (yes, that's not a typo - he was bad at public speaking), but he actually read about things! And voted in ways that made sense! I turned right around on him - I thought it was terrible he got in and it turned out quite well.

Rex Patrick is another senator who seems to do a good job.

> The other blatant hypocrisy is Labor jumping on the #righttoknow bandwagon.

And encryption, same deal. Consider the Telecommunications and Other Legislation Amendment (Assistance and Access) Bill 2018 (the one that makes it illegal to have secure end-to-end encryption in Australia) [0].

The Labor party managed to work in with the government's tight timeframe and get the bill passed in a single day on the 6th of December [1] after a very short timeframe for consultation and gathering opinions. Labour did note that when introduced a two and a half months before that they didn't like the bill, but frankly it is obvious that they were working with the government to rush it through without scrutiny. No serious debate as far as I'm aware.

The bipartisanship on these issues is frankly miserable. Labour is in no position to claim that they support free and open communication. I honestly havn't figured out why these issues get such unanimous support by the political class. I do wish that Australian's would take it more seriously, our laws surrounding free speech and civil liberties are in a really bad state.

"Burn it all down" is a terrible, terrible idea put forward by people too lazy to think about fixing specific problems.

How about specific suggestions instead of just "start from scratch" with no real reason to think it will improve things and plenty of reasons to think it could be worse.
This is great, and I'll be using it for development! However, I've been looking for something a bit more predictable, and yet still modern, for production use. I do not know why Brotli support isn't included in every nginx image at this point.
You don't represent everyone. I don't see much outrage either, but I have heavily curated my feed list to get there.
It's surprising to me how many people seem to think that the FBI should be taking into consideration things that (I would think) belong to the realm of parenting. Maybe that viewpoint is a lot more normal than I personally think it should be.

I do not want the FBI wasting my tax dollars trying to parent sources (or anyone for that matter). They're a law enforcement agency, not DHHS.

The parents were paying his internet bill (and everything else), it seems safe to conclude they had considerably more influence over his life direction than the FBI.

Remember the parents gifted him a vacation to SE Asia to meet the jihadi bride. Yeah, you want your kid to have a girlfriend, but there can be limits.

The article also doesn't tell us how much he actually worked for the FBI, other than that they didn't pay him very much (implying not very much). There are a small number of anecdotes, but presumably the article's authors know more and could have told us more.. How many reports did he write? How many did he get paid for? How many times did they meet over the five years, from when he was 23 to when he was 28? Ten? Five hundred?

It does tell us that Agent Tim went to Villanova (amongst other irrelevant personal information), so I guess that means he's supposed to play a parenting role to the sources he manages.
Gives me flashbacks to the days 20 years ago when a 32-bit/33MHz PCI interface crypto accelerator card, with dedicated ASIC, was a good way to speed up SSL page serving on your openbsd machines.
Could be a generational thing, though.
For our support team of 5 we just started using a custom text expansion tool I built in Electron. The snippets (canned messages) are stored in a WordPress site (we already have the main website / docs in wp so it was a good fit) and we all contribute to them.

https://github.com/sareiodata/kbexpander
https://github.com/sareiodata/kbexpander-snippets

The tool is mapped to a keyboard shortcut (the OS manages this) and searches the snippet title and content. So you can easily filter down stuff.

The WP plugin also has reports, like most used snippets (every-time you paste a snippet, we track that) per user / date / category. This way we'll try to see in the future if we can improve a particular part of our product, improve inline docs so we stop getting those questions. I'm not sure if this will amount to anything, but it's something we're experimenting with.

Other tools exist, but I didn't find anything with good enough search + a way to have a common repo for snippets + usage reports, thus the Electron monstrosity and WP companion plugin.

Concepts creeps because when we want to affect world, we need to name things first. When we name them, we need short phrase that will fit twit. Who cares if somebody already used it to describe something different?! [1]

The other reason why concept creeps is connotations of previous meaning. Call digital sharing a piracy. Call privacy breaching a personalization. Call protester a terrorist. Call different opinion a hate speech. Call looking lustfully a rape.

[1] I do.
A billion years is a long time. But if they came in a million, they probably could - if not from radioisotopes, then just from observing that the surface layer composition of metals doesn't fit any reasonable geological model. We dug up a lot of stuff, and while this initially concentrates them, as our works decay, they get dispersed into the environment, and I doubt a million years is enough for them to reintegrate back into the crust.

If the media can be made to understand they will get more support if they campaign for broader protections then maybe everyone can be better off.

I don't support making journalists a protected class. That is just going to open the door to more abuse and make it harder to push back on the fundamental problems with the prevailing thought - people should be generally free to tell the truth about what is happening, without harassment by government.

If the media wants something different, I don't want what they want and hopefully they don't get it. This isn't an issue where people should compromise away the core principles.
Good news, any participants under your control can (and so should) refuse to do 0RTT. Clients can choose never to send early data and servers can choose to always reject it, everything still works.
