I wonder if there's a way to know if your machine has already been fked?
Is there scientific evidence that the more we have highly happy moments the more we have highly suffering moments?
I does not match my experience of life.
I am from a country with universal free healthcare (sans medicine costs, which are subsidized and fairly cheap).

Private options are significantly better than the free one, and there is some social stigma associated with going to a government hospital.
yup, health insurance is a very big part of it.

but also, it takes a long time to find another position.
In Geneva it is easy to walk down the street and see watches selling for prices that vary by over 4 orders of magnitude.

They all keep pretty good time. Some of the cheaper digital ones have much more functionality than the expensive mechanical ones. It's clear that keeping time is not the purpose of the watch.

I've been using OpenVPN on my home pfSense box, it's working pretty good and didn't require I install anything except the OpenVPN app on my phone. Not sure if WireGuard has anything to offer that would motivate a switch.

> I'd venture a guess that your familiarity with hg is interfering because the conventions are different.

Git users also need to answer questions like "What changes are in my feature branch?" (e.g., a PR) and "What changed in this commit?" (e.g., GitHub's single-commit-diff view). These aren't Mercurial-specific questions, they're applicable to all VCSes including Git, as evidenced by the (widely-used) features in GitHub.

Even with Git, I've never wanted to know how my workspace compares to another branch, nor how a given commit compares to my workspace (except when that commit is a small offset off my workspace).

> In other words, if you elide the second argument, it defaults to wherever HEAD is.

Yeah, I get that, but that's not helpful because I still need to calculate the second argument. For example, `git diff master..feature-branch` is incorrect, I want something like `git diff $(git merge-base master feature-branch)..feature-branch` (because the diff is between feature-branch and feature-branch's common ancestor with master, not with HEAD of master).

One of the cool things about Mercurial is it has standard selectors for things. `hg log -b feature-branch` will return just the log entries of the range of commits in the feature-branch (not their ancestors in master, unlike `git log feature-branch`). Similarly, `-c <commit>` always returns a single-commit range (something like <commit>^1..<commit> in git). It's this consistency and sanity in the UI that makes Mercurial so nice to work with, and which allows me to recall with better accuracy the hg commands that I used >5 years ago than the git commands that I've used in the last month.

Anyone know roughly where to look for in terms of potential bottlenecks? I’m running my server on an rpi4 and sometimes feel like I’m not getting great speeds to my home VPN server. I did do my due diligence by wiring it directly through Ethernet but I suspect my router (google WiFi) may be slowing things down.
Start taking you privacy seriously, and opting out of bad services where you can. This sometimes means not getting to be on $latestplatform, and missing a few conversations, etc. Sticking to your principles is never easy or costless. Even then, verify that what you are using isn't spying on you. That means read the EULAs and TOSs. That means packet sniff your network regularly to find potential issues. etc etc It requires work.

I think there will be a huge market for entities to help individuals without these skills do these things.
Nope. At most, I'll have 2-3 drinks on Saturday night.
> Plus it only tracks their commbadges.

Indeed, there's a few examples where someone leaves it in their quarters when they don't want to be tracked.
Another way to look at it -- your friends are very close in age and class, exposed to the same things, and likely going through the same life stages together. We are all less different than we'd like to believe.
Or there is some other factor they didn't control for.
Also looking for a new job in a pain in the ass. First, you have to make or update your resume... which for me is like facing all of my self-hatred. As I make my resume, I spend hours trying not to feel shitty about all the things that I haven't accomplished, and feel shitty about how I don't really have the requirements for the job I want. I compare myself to everybody else in the field as I look for example resumes, realize I don't have the same kinds of accomplishments, and I have just been grinding away for the past 10 years. All this is despite the fact that I know I'm good at my job, and I've never been reprimanded or fired.

Then, I get so sick of going to 6-hour interviews where you go with each member of the team one-on-one. Then wait weeks, get a call back to come in again... Take more time off the current job, lie to your boss again... Spend an hour each time figuring out how to get there and park, and find your way around the completely unmarked campus... Then half the people apologize that they forgot you were coming. Study before hand, writing cover letters, tweaking the resume for each job... I get sick of answering the same questions over and over, when we could have just had a group interview and gotten it over with.

And if you're quitting because you're stressed and burnt out, last thing you want is another thing on your plate to be stressed and burnt out about.
>But when we are taking about 16 year olds it's muddier since we are taking about child porn outside of pedophilia.

It's not muddier. The issue isn't the nature of the people viewing the content, but the ability of the victim to consent to the creation of the content. There's no muddiness involved here - sexual exploitation of minors for the production of media is not ok.
So what's your plan? If you're looking for ideas to save more, I only have one, which is to live with another person (or add more if you already do so) to further cut rent and other bills.

Computer science indeed sounds a lot like you're working with computers.

They are beholden with affiliate links. Which means their financial success depends on you buying through their websites.

At a minimum, that means you won't get to learn about smaller niche stores like JetPens.com (very good for stationary / high-quality pens), since such small stores don't have any affiliate links for Wirecutter to make money from.

As old and outdated as Consumer Reports is... they're clearly primarily driven through reader-contributions. There's a degree of independence through that methodology that affiliate links / advertisements / etc. etc. fails to replicate.

--------------

Speaking of which: Jetpens.com, and other smaller niche online stores, do manage to solve the problem to some degree. Their blogposts about their products is certainly "shilling their store", but they review a wide enough variety of products that they've earned my trust. They aren't shilling for any particular company, they're simply shilling for their wares.

I guess smaller webstores really do have that advantage. As long as they have good and useful reviews on their blog ( https://www.jetpens.com/blog ), I'm going to be reading their posts and possibly buying their stuff. Yeah, its shilling their own website, but that's something that most people understand innately when they read the blog.

There's also a quality-level associated with the store brand: JetPens doesn't offer cheap or low-quality pens. You can pretty much buy stuff at random and get good stationary. Careful control of the store's inventory is clearly important to building a brand.

After all, if I wanted cheap stuff, I'd go to Amazon (or Walmart) instead. I'm going to JetPens because I feel like a premium quality pen or pencil.
If I'm reading the Wikipedia article correctly, then Norway is outpacing the US and they have 25 days of vacation per year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_minimum_annual_leave_b...

So it seems to me that there are a lot of confounding factors here. Do we actually know what causes GDP/hour to go up and down? It doesn't seem directly related to vacation time.

It seems to me more like the Wikipedia article you linked to is saying "countries that give a lot of vacation to all citizens can still have a high GDP per hour worked" and we don't understand what other confounding factors can contribute to GDP/hour

He's kind of a nutcase. He's a gun rights advocate, to the point where immediately after 9/11 (within a day or two?) he argued that the solution should be for everyone to carry a gun always, especially on airplanes.

And then he accused women in tech groups of trying to "entrap" prominent male open source leaders to falsely accuse them of rape.

And then he claimed that "gays experimented with unfettered promiscuity in the 1970s and got AIDS as a consequence", and that police who treat "suspicious" black people like lethal threats are being rational, not racist.

Basically, he's a racist, bigoted old man who isn't afraid to spout of conspiracy theories because he thinks the world is against him.
> Pretty much all hate speech is censored on social media platforms. So is calling for or promoting violence against certain groups. Harrassment is also prohibited on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Social media platforms censor more than that. Try posting a picture of a nipple on Facebook.
> “I actually agree with other commenters: Google just doesn't know what it's about anymore. It has no overriding vision.”

it’s pretty apparent to me that after google finally got over wanting to be facebook, google now wants to be apple. and they’re desperately trying not to be microsoft, even though that’s what they mostly are.

in the beginning, google had a unique identity (quirky & clever) and vision (organize the world’s information). now they look to others to figure out who to be. it’s like the small town high school football star who never moved on.

I believe this to be an absolute game changer (is used as I think it can be). Currently we have several forward air bases and stations in the Middle East. I think some of that may be so that we can have aerial tankers there (KC-135s, KC-10s). Because we want to refuel things in mid-air, we need need tankers over there. Because we need tankers over there, we need air bases. Because we need air bases in certain countries, we must maintain reasonable diplomatic relations with said countries -- even when our humanitarian or other policies are at opposite ends of the spectrum. I think that by having carrier based tankers we could de-couple from some of these countries with some of these bases. I think can can, potentially, lead to a very different strategic approach.

TikTok is a better app than Vine was. It has far more features (visual effects, etc) and does a good job of making them easy to use. This all translates into better growth and retention.

TikTok was also very well marketed. Lots of slick online ads that went straight to their target demographic. I'm not sure if Vine ever knew quite what it wanted to be.

I'm looking for an exciting role (preferably related with open-source or AI) which explores an innovative idea.
I agree it's absurd to use this as an argument against encryption, but I am curious about what the number is. How much could a banana cost Michael, $10?
Agreed. Authoritarian governments with morally questionable methods were and are better than the West at Humanint and propaganda. Russia and China are two good examples. I recently saw a documentary about North Korea. It was talking about the Clinton talks, NK would study everyone they would speak to. They also knew with an election would change guards and wait to get what they wanted.

Foreign adversaries must be loving the divide America has at the moment with our 2 party system. They are also trying to divide us by race, economic class, and create a divide with the police.

> you can just smash

I think you may have glossed over the "just". Of course they "can" but it's not "ergo" in the sense that 1 + 1 = 2 ergo you are now better than the 1.5 company.

I don't view the tunnel as being the optimistic antithesis of the turkey or runner analogy. The other two are not meant to be postulations pending mathematical proofs but critiques on simplistic thinking.
The article falsely makes it sounds that Torvalds wants us all to comment our code.
Thanks for the comments. I'm looking at the certs mainly to get my foot in the door.
Money is an artificial construct used by humans to facilitate trading their labor amongst each other in order to get what they need to survive.

Arguments about how expensive things are make no sense if we restructure our society where money is only half the equation. The labor required to provide food, health, and housing is incredibly small compared to the overall economy.

People want to be useful, and people want more than just a place to live and food to eat.

The real danger would be in creating a system that stifles the free market side of the economy and leaves people stuck in basic assistance hell with no way of working to improve their lives. Worrying about the costs of providing basic assistance to all is actually the least important bit.

Correct. If you're looking for the most accurate timekeeper, well, you already have it, it's your phone.

I got into watches because the engineering of the watch is amazing and beautiful. The fact that someone could design a series of gears and springs that correctly identifies not only the time but the day - including 31 day months and leap years - is astonishing to me.
The censorship is completely different though, if you want to write "Fuck Donald Trump", or give a detailed account of his crimes on a US platform, it will not be censored. Try the same in a Chinese owned platform about f.ex. something as obvious as Tianmen.

There are some things such as porn that is censored in many areas.
You're right, but didn't have to. This guy when he could get past being mad at me knew that was against the rules. Also even if it was allowed, no one wants to shop at a place that says Not Secure.

Side topic, but I've been trying to explain to our terrible CFO for years that PCI / PCI DSS is a real thing. He thinks that's the type of regulation that only giant companies have to deal with.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Unix

> The Unix operating system was first presented formally to the outside world at the 1973 Symposium on Operating Systems Principles, where Ritchie and Thompson delivered a paper. This led to requests for the system, but under a 1956 consent decree in settlement of an antitrust case, the Bell System (the parent organization of Bell Labs) was forbidden from entering any business other than "common carrier communications services", and was required to license any patents it had upon request.[6] Unix could not, therefore, be turned into a product. Bell Labs instead shipped the system for the cost of media and shipping.[6] Ken Thompson quietly began answering requests by shipping out tapes and disks, each accompanied by – according to legend – a note signed, "Love, Ken”

Looks like marketing actions to me.
