Exercise + socialize

Meetup.come and facebook groups can be a great resource. Try something that freaks you out a little bit.

I <3 acro yoga, group and solo mountain biking, and group and solo rock climbing. Maybe one more of those would work for you. Maybe you should find something else. Ultimate frisbee, geocaching, group fitness classes, group hiking. There are a lot of exercise + socialize options out there if you go looking for them. Do it and I bet you’ll thank yourself for it later on down the road. If you feel uncomfortable putting yourself out there and trying something new than just try to remember how uncomfortable you are with the thought that there might be something more out there for you. I bet that there is.
Of course cold war shenanigans would prove me wrong.... I stand corrected
"Guessing" and "a bit like" are key qualifiers here; error correction codes in QR provide a pretty hard guarantee and won't scan corrupted. With this scheme, who knows?
Ah yes, the old insight. Fred Brooks: "Show me your [code] and conceal your [data structures], and I shall continue to be mystified. Show me your [data structures], and I won't usually need your [code]; it'll be obvious."
Where did you get the idea that the pesticides commonly used before the common use of neonicotinoids were less toxic?

(They might be less toxic to bees and the zooplankton mentioned in the OP, but they were more toxic to, e.g., human agricultural workers.)

If your premise were true, you'd expect countries offering more vacation time to have higher productivity per hour worked. (I.e. more efficiency, even if less total production.) Instead, the U.S. has among the highest levels of productivity per hour worked: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP).... Americans are much more productive, even on a per-hour basis, than people in advanced democracies that have more vacation time.

The censorship argument against TikTok seems odd given that Trump supporters are a prominent voice on the platform (I'm a huge TikTok user). Wouldn't its Chinese masters want to silence support for him as well? Why haven't they?

To be clear, I don't like the idea of foreign state controlled major social platforms opaque to US oversight. I'm commenting specifically on the argument that TikTok silences Hong Kong supporters.

I definitely did not know that. Thanks!
That was a fantastic deal - for Nokia. They offloaded a large underperforming business whilst retaining all the valuable IP.
I'm kind of in the same spot. But while it feels like freedom to do the things you mentioned (go on long walks, stop working mid afternoon, etc...), in the end our lives revolve around work and not the other way around. I'm struggling with this as breaks aside, there are other things I like to do in life.
>Just wondering when we're actually going to reconsider that premise and its legal cognates.

We're not. It's very simple: you're talking about something like the EU's GPDR. We can't do that, because the EU did it, and since we're America and we're Exceptional, we can't ever copy anything that someone else does. So it'll never happen here.

Aside from Unicode strings, what changes actually required breaking backwards compatibility.

For that matter, why did the switch to unicode strings require breaking backwards compatibility? I don't understand why we couldn't just move to assuming all strings are utf8 unless specified otherwise. Keep [] byte oriented, add a .at() method to index by code point.

I believe this could be a good solution to turn legacy software into an API. The “generated code” should be a reverse proxy, not a scraping lib.

Also, scraping a website to use/copy it’s data is illegal in my country (Belgium). I’m not sure this tool itself would be.

> This has been my problem with cats. They are hit or miss.

There's a crucial period between 8 and 12 weeks (IIRC) where if a kitten isn't handled regularly they are likely to always be somewhat wary around people. If you want an affectionate cat your best bet is finding a breeder and visiting them to make sure they're treating the kittens well and interacting frequently with them.

I've owned or lived with a lot of cats over the years and the difference is very obvious, especially if you're a stranger.
I'm not sure what you mean by SVN being super complicated? I've been using and administering it for years and it's just as straightforward as git (if a little easier because centralization is simpler to grok than decentralization).

Can't you just log on to the appropriate USA government website and download the submitted and audited accounts?

Isn't USA supposed to be a bastion of capitalism, and isn't a central feature of capitalism that it optimises the distribution of resources, that optimisation being predicated on readily available information -- the system doesn't optimise at all without information flow.

Please don't tell me Google don't have public accounts???

There shouldn't be any mystery here, you should just be able to read it off the P&L sheets?
This is a continuation of the trite bit. What's missing is recognizing that Alphabet (not Google) is very focused on diversifying its revenue stream beyond search advertising, ideally in a way that takes advantage of the things it's already good at.

GCP is a good example. No search. No ads. No using of customer data. Just a desire for a really big potential revenue stream that builds on Google's expertise in managing huge numbers of servers and services.

"The solution to suicide is socialism" doesn't ring more true when you try to obfuscate it by claiming "common precursors" etc you know won't pass basic inspection.

Yang's redistribution is step 1. You elect the guy who gets the "reasonable" dole in place, and every election after that becomes about who can offer the most money to the people collecting.

Yang is a snake oil salesman and has no solution. His solution is actually step 1 - create a situation where politics becomes about individually promising people money.

What a disaster of a candidate. The only thing that at all makes me feel better is that he's going nowhere.
>Which is the kicker.

Yep, given that physicists estimate the universe at 10^10 years old, and most end of universe scenarios like the heat death occur at ages like 10^100 years, I don't think we should worry about that limiting current economics.

San Francisco Digital Services | Full stack/Drupal | San Francisco, CA onsite only

San Francisco Digital Services is a team embedded within the City and County of San Francisco. We're not an IT consultancy - we partner with City departments to make their services easier to use for all residents.

Right now we're 26 developers, designers, and product managers, and aiming to hire for ~15 more positions by the end of the year. All of us are fulltime City employees, which means government benefits! We work in an agile fashion, and tackle wicked problems like affordable housing and permitting. (Yes, we know there is no affordable housing in SF, nor is it easy to get a permit. Join us in making it better!)

Right now we're hiring for 2 developer positions, all of which require at least 3 years of experience:

- Full stack developer to work on the affordable housing application on housing.sfgov.org

- Drupal engineer to make it easier for residents to find services they need on SF.gov

Apply for all jobs at https://digitalservices.sfgov.org/joinus/

Mention you saw this post on Hacker News when you do. Thanks!
What incentive do they have on their side to do that? Ignoring the moral argument, which I agree with, there isn't much financial benefit that comes from that, and very few people who make it that high up the chain seem to be influenced by moral arguments.

Your argument veers unreasonably so into nationalism; there's no reason they shouldn't instead start investing money in Europe, or one of the dozens of other countries that could use US funds well in Asia.
Ex-Google engineer: Extreme content? No, it's algorithms that radicalize people
> How much of that is based on people not knowing how to properly socialize them as kittens is an open question for me though.

A lot from what I've read and my experience, there's a critical period between 8 and 12 weeks where they need handling if they aren't always to be a bit wary around people.
The difference is in a great many cases, you can pick "no lord". Don't like being tracked with electronic tolling transponder? Don't use a toll transponder. Don't like giving Xiami permissions to use your personal data? Don't install a Xiami app. Don't like the supermarket tracking your purchases? Pay cash and don't use the loyalty card.

The key is that you have to be willing to give up what those things give you as well. The article even lists several: "long waits at road toll cash lines, higher prices at grocery stores, inferior seating on airline flights."

There were very few things in the article that I read that a principled person literally could not reasonably live without. Electricity was perhaps the closest, but even most automated meter reading or smart metering programs have a way to pay a monthly fee for a dumb meter to be installed and read manually.

If that's the case, then the question is one of convenience vs privacy tradeoff. I choose to get a driver's license, to have a car and to register it and put license plates on it. I could bike or walk. I choose to use credit cards, frequent flier and other loyalty programs, to use electronic tolling and automated meter reading, to use Kindles and highlight passages, to use a TiVo, Netflix, and Amazon to consume television, to use a smartphone and many apps, to connect with friends and family on Facebook and colleagues on LinkedIn. I do so because I perceive the benefit of doing so to be extraordinarily higher than the loss of privacy.

That's quite a bit different from being a feudal serf living on a lord's land in my book.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, but in my recent trip to China, I discussed Trump with many local Chinese. Obviously the tradewar is a major topic. I said I share and comment on articles that criticize Trump all the time on Facebook.

They were surprised you could do that...
I mean, as a Canadian consumer using American social media platforms, we're subject to American censorship policies. Tumblr / Facebook / YouTube being most notable in their filtering of LGBT content and suspending accounts of LGBT users, because of the American governments stance on human sexuality. This argument of who censors makes sense for Americans, but it's more about picking your poison for people from other countries.
I see this happening a lot amongst my friends in the bay area. Now 4-5 years removed from school, everyone paid off there debts and are setting up there adult life. One buys a home, another buys a home the same size or bigger. One buys a tesla, the other buys the one model up. One gets a drone, the other buys a drone the week after. It goes on and on. Most of the time now, meeting with them, discussions are about what they bought or what they plan on buying.

To me it feels like everyone uses the goods they buy to show how important they are. Expensive goods means you are valued in what you do, that's why you can afford it. I break the group mold, driving a corolla, living in a rental mostly because I want to save my money for other goals but sometimes I do feel the pang to buy one of the newly announced toys so I can go to a meet up and show it off.
The whole point of neonicotinoids is that they're less toxic to mammals than organophosphates, and can be used in smaller amounts for the same effect.
Because the fish were alive.
This kind of sentiment is just a higher-level version of gaslighting. It conflates rationality and explainability.

Humans have a very good intuitive understanding of how other humans think, even when that thinking is irrational. This understanding has evolved over millions of years and it even predates our species. We developer all kids of mechanisms for controlling irrational behavior and tested them for thousands of years.
TikTok is actually a great app. When I was a kid in the 00's my friends and I used to carry around a video camera to make music videos. With TikTok you can do it with your cell phone.

They beat SnapChat, FB and Instagram on experience.

Censorship is something serious to consider, but these are mainly kids making music videos. They aren't using it to organize campaigns.
