I usually think of "cringe" as vicarious embarrassment. You look at someone doing something that you would have felt deeply embarrassed about having done (Maybe you have done it, or something uncomfortably close to it, in the past).

I think it's a kind of involuntary empathy in a strictly mechanical sense - feeling as if you were that person when you look at them. Because when you think about it coldly, it's not obvious why you should care that other people are embarrassing themselves.

So it's not empathy in the ethical sense. On the contrary, people who talk about "cringe" are often fiercely angry at the people making them feel this way.
OP here and it seems I'm even more dyslectic :)
That is one of the proposed solutions in that thread. I think somewhat to that effect is what will have to happen. Though it seems like it's possible, in some browsers, for the adblocker with the right permissions to inject itself in the original DNS resolution process and just stop the process when it encounters a blocked domain.
In the context of all the other times when the US got reported for human rights abuse, I think it's pretty damn persuasive. Just because the US ignores all those special UN reports, doesn't mean the rest of the world does...

Two hind-sights for an hour :

- Learn how to fall.

In skateboarding : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hundbrub8iQ

In a more general way, it can be enlightening because it is a fundamental learning principle. When confronted to something new, you will make mistakes, what you need to learn is not how to avoid mistakes but how to avoid catastrophic failures (i.e. how to reduce the cost of mistakes).

It's learning how to fail safely so that you can do more cycles and let exponential growth due to iterated processes settle.

- Learn to spot cycles.

A cycle is a sequence of actions that can be repeated. Ideally cycles would repeat indefinitely but usually they have side effects. Characterize the cycles : timescale, resources created and consumed, compare the value relatively to the values at the same instant of the previous cycles. Is it good or bad ? How frequently can it be repeated ? Can I do every part of the cycle on my own ? How can it be optimized ? And for almost cycles : How to close the loop.

Read Schopenhauer „The Art of Being Right: 38 Ways to Win an Argument”. It’s a short read, but mind opening if you’re new to the subject. If it seems too long then just read some shortened version. If you still have some time after that then go to “list of cognitive biases” Wikipedia entry and continue there.

I believe it is crucial to understand what tricks others are using in arguments. And also what’s our cognitive limits and logical fallacies when trying to understand the world.
On first thought service meshes sound like the dumbest thing possible but then you realize that not every application can natively integrate with consul for service discovery and you can't use the DNS fallback because your datacenter doesn't have IPv6 support so you can't give every container an IP address. You also cannot use DNS SRV which contains ip:port information. You realize that a lot of software doesn't support TLS encryption natively. All of that has to be implemented outside of the legacy application. So instead of tackling each challenge individually you can just run a sidecar process that does everything for you.

There's a related technique called metamorphic testing where the insight is that the only part of the program being compiled that matters is the part that will be executed to compute that differentiating output. So, the other parts can be mutated (even with undefined behaving code, as those parts are not executed) and differently mutated versions can be tested against one another. This works even when one just has a single compiler.

As much as I dislike seemingly knee-jerk contrary statements against “known-good” knowledge, I feel that there is an important point here: aggressively attempting to compound interest is a poor use of time when you only have, say, hundreds of dollars. Better to focus on compound interest “in the background” while optimizing for growing capital or income-generating skills.

This is why when people say they don't take money from big corporations or rich donors, it's such an important factor. It's not just that you as a political party are incentivized to what they want so they will keep giving you money. Even if you donÄt directly succumb to their demands, you are incentivized to keep them rich so they will keep having all that money to give you.

In the last ten years the NASDAQ index went from 2.000 to 8.500 and the S&P500 from 1.000 to over 3.000 in what is generally referred to as the "10 year rally".

Inflation as in the rise in price of a basket of goods is generally used in reference to the consumer price index, but can also be used in reference to stocks, and baskets of those such as the indices.

I would argue you better practice recall than rereading, i.e. put some notes after reading, make an abstract, expand on it with new thoughts next day, in a week etc.
Just rereading might be a) boring b) constantly giving you a sense of familiarity, which is not knowledge.
When I have to reread something that is not too deep I sense that I have made a mistake first time by not really thinking about the text.
How old are you? My father was thin until he turned 27. He was never huge, but at 27 he was 170lbs (6'2") and at his peak, around age 65, he was a little over 200. He warned me about that. At 27, I was also 170 lbs (6'2") (I am nearly a clone of my dad), and then slowly gained weight. I briefly ballooned to 215 around age 31, but hammered that back down to 185, but since then it has slowly climbed to 200 (at age 60). I am back down to 196. In my early twenties I could eat a large 'special' pizza by myself in about 45 minutes. Metabolism changes with age. I dearly miss being able to eat anything I wanted at any time with no consequences.

I might be becoming an old fart, but I really don't see the benefits. I use vim, so technically I've been able to do remote development for years, but I've never felt the need to. Git makes sure that I have easy access to the right code version, Docker and docker-compose make sure I have the right environment. I only run one version of the codebase at a certain point in time. After all, I'm mentally focused on one problem at the time, right?

Yes, running docker-compose for the first time takes a bit longer. But seeing it unfold and having all the parts present on my local system helps me understand this new system better. And really, how often does this happen?
Very cool. Let me add to all of these great examples in the comments. I published this app with focusing on exactly these points just two days ago.

Just because there are worse things to do does not make Piwik the right thing. The right thing is not to collect the data at all.
The ccTLDs are ultimately controlled by the sovereign entity whose country code is represented. So you could make the usual rule-of-law arguments in favour of a variety of stable industrialised economies, the same way you would for where you'd house the legal entity for an international business.

But I don't see any indication that .org is likely to go away, they just intend to hike prices to make a nice profit, and that's totally inside the rule-of-law so there's no particular reason to think that, say, Canada, wouldn't do just the same if it saw the opportunity.
How is this different from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_hypothermic_circulatory_a... ?

This.

There are so many industries that aren't going to be 'disrupted' by some fancy new tech. Because they have much more urgent low tech problems to solve first.

I've lost count in the number of startups that want to 'disrupt' agriculture with blockchain, because, you know, who wouldn't want to have their potatoes tracked in a decentralized proof-of-stake ledger? PotatoCoin! But reality is that to store data in a blockchain, you first need data to begin with. Many of the business in agriculture is conducted on a handshake, usually there isn't even paperwork. Also, in many countries agriculture relies on operating in a grey area of tax, just to break a profit. I bet a lot of farmers don't even want a transparent ledger for everyone to see ;-)

Most of us developers don't have the real-life industry experience to remotely understand where the opportunities lie. And we are way to naive to think that we can solve any problem with software.
Hollywood Exec Suggested Julia Roberts Should Play Harriet Tubman
Very nice work. I like what I see on many levels!

Let me also echo the idea of a "pantry inventory". Getting something like that working (well) would by itself be a very strong feature. Like others, I have been interested in that for a long time.

I even took a stab at it many years ago, to some success, but abandoned it when we hired a nanny who took care of cooking.

I had a dedicated optical scanner attached to the wall plugged in via USB to an Arduino microprocessor. It had a single button and a single RGB LED. Pushing the button would "wakeup" the system and it would resume previous mode. Two modes: check-in and check-out. (Pushing the button again toggles the mode. System reboots by holding the button down for 3 seconds. Auto "sleep" occured after a set inactivity.) The Arduino just sent a POST request via HTTP API upon a successful SKU scan, and flash a red or blue light depending on thr mode. And then a little CRUD interface I could access from my phone.

There are many SKU datasets out there available, and some amount of management of that data (organization, categorization) would be what could really set you apart.
