Not everything with the word Blockchain in it is a scam... we don't sell any tokens/coins, we provide people with the access to decentralized internet, like Ethereum NameSpace (domains registered with Ethereum blockchain) and IPFS.
I think you missed that I'm already at limits of my workload with one customer (no time for more) who pays me more than competition (even per task they could find cheaper people), actually my local competition without this contact I have because of my past relations charge basically half of what I charge and yes I am considering subcontracting someone, seem like best solution, but I'm still avoiding it until I can manage it by myself
It doesn’t fit my mental model. MVC type frameworks do. The first front end framework I used was Angular. I immediately “got it”.

But, unlike the back end, making a good, consistent, usable website especially as part of a team is much harder than backend work.

On the backend, a RESTful API has simple well known semantics. It also either processes the request correctly or it doesn’t. There is no nuance. The same is true for ETL type jobs.
I program in ARM assembler, C, Rust, Java and Clojure on a daily basis and for me C is definitely low level language.

For me a "level" up is something that helps me structure my program in a fundamentally better way. Java has VM and garbage collector, Lisps have macros and REPL. For me these are fundamental enablers to create different types of flows that would not be at all practical in assembly or C.

The difference between assembly and C is just that you need couple of instructions in Assembly to get an equivalent of line of code in C but the fundamental program structure is the same.

The automation is nice but other than reduced overhead the same problems that are difficult in Assembly are still difficult in C and for me this means they are roughly on a same level.

I don't know if this is a thing in the anglosphere but in Germany there is a saying that goes like: if it doesn't changes how you think, it can be hardly called education. Getting educated means you have to let the things you encounter change your view of the world – that doesn't mean you have to change with the wind, but if you are not an idiot you will realize the points where you just wanted something to be true vs. what might actually be the case.

In that sense, the bloke really did get an education. And of course: collegues, professors and the whole environment plays a huge role in education. I'd argue that collegues can be even more important than professors.

I've found with two of my kids that they were really into paper-based logic puzzles using logic gates.

I draw up a heap of multi-input AND and OR gates, and some inverters, then wire them together in more or less random ways. Then put 0 or 1 on all of the inputs, and get the kids to work out what some given output will be.

The good things I've found are:

- This seems easily within reach of my kids from age 5 or so, probably many could start even younger

- all they need to get going is the concept of AND, OR and NOT, easily graspable

- It's quite positive for their self-esteem, since what they're doing looks (especially to their seniors) insanely complex, but logic is really not that hard

- It's paper-based, no screentime, pin them up on their wall when they're done

- It's super quick to set up each "puzzle", and you don't even need to spend any time setting up some complicated trick answer, or even really testing your puzzle. Any old random logic circuits are great fun for them to step through and come up with the outputs.

- you can step it up to more complex things - e.g. change up some of the inputs once they've got their first outputs, chuck in some flipflops etc.
There is a hump for me around 12-14 hours where I do feel distracted by the urge to eat. Once I make it past that I find that I have more mental clarity than before the fast.
For example, Router.ETH is our decentralized website. It can't be removed from the internet. It will be available even if government bans it.
Java forces you to use profiling, at least with C you can see the exact instructions your compiler outputs. Missing the fancy vector instructions? Modify your code til you can guarantee it's vectorized. With Java you are at the mercy of the JVM to do the right thing at runtime.
it should be possible, but it's too much hassle to organize it just for vacation, while I can still manage workload
You could also do both: circle the cats to indicate that they meet the condition but then you have to count your circles and press the corresponding number button so you still have to do the counting (but not the memorising). This means you're less likely to make a mistake due to forgetting to count a correctly identified cat.

Religion / ecclesiastical institutes also served that purpose. There's many meetup tools, really no reason to still depend on pubs anymore. If you need alcohol as social lubricant, take a few shots, bring a (discreet) flask.

I know there's other aspects to bar culture that's more conducive to forming relationships for some people, but I also think the reason why "local" pub culture is dying is because people finally have alternative options, though no doubt many of those options are solitary activities. Though I'm not convinced loneliness is bad in itself, or social drinking is necessarily the antidote. Plenty of people getting worse in misery loves company situations.
Social drinking has been around far longer than tv commercials and adtech.
> Start ups do work on cutting edge tech, you just need to be at the right one.

Sure, let me put it in a different way - working on cutting edge tech isn't dependent on the maturity of your company.
That's an interesting point. I bet the price of plastic has gone down since the original value was chosen. I wonder what price point makes fraud economical on a large enough scale to attract someone with access to manufacturing...
I think, much of the recent developments in UI design (and its conceptual space) is owed to display technology. Modern displays have different contrast ratios from CRTs. Generally, fine details used to look softer on CRTs. So, when flat displays were introduced, bevels didn't look right, Apple got rid of realistic icons (formerly introduced in OS X), etc. On the other hand, extensive regions of flat color where always a bit of a problem on CRTs (too bright, maybe there were some artefacts from some interference – who remembers the stripes caused by a cell phone placed next to a CRT?), but rendered impressively on flat screens. Meaning, the old UIs didn't work like they used to be on the new technology, while the new displays provided for a few things which had always been a bit problematic on the old ones. Enter double resolution displays and the necessity to render the same content on varying resolutions. Flat design and parametric scaling seems to be the answer. However, there's now a limited range of ways to add unobtrusive visual clues and of compartmentalisation/grouping as compared to the old visual vocabulary. Moreover, with the old vocabulary, a single element could have multiple visual clues attached to it (e.g., a bevel indicated a button, the icon and its color a task and a category, an underline in the associated text a shortcut key, etc), while now a single element can have just a single clue added to it for the most. Reduced visual complexity, as necessitated by the display technology, also meant reduced conceptual complexity.
> But it's a shame remote work isn't quite at that level to completely make physical location irrelevant. Maybe someday

A lot of the big decisions happen between meetings in the corridors.

Working at a satellite location, despite being onsite, is also considered harmful to your career.

It is the fact that the people who make decisions are not physically near enough for everything that happens between the bits of work. Those are the things that have historically mattered far more in career growth.

I struggle to understand what I'm supposed to get out of this tool. If "new technology" has a "huge breakthrough", global warming will be reduced .3 degrees - but we'd better hope that the breakthrough doesn't cause "economic growth" to become "high growth", since that will increase it by .7 degrees. Doesn't matter what the technology does or how the economic growth happens, we can predict their effects... somehow.

I don't think there's much understanding to be gained by attaching sliders with vague, underspecified labels to a graph.

Not sure about that. I personally found Windows 95 (or XP/Windows 7 in classic mode) looked great on flat screens - better than on CRTs actually.
Alcohol is toxic, so it's always bad, even in moderation. But apparently it correlates with some beneficial effects, so it's a tradeoff.

You think so? The latest Stackoverflow survey says otherwise: https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2019#technology-_-...

"Linux 53.3%, Windows 50.7% MacOS 22.2%"

Yes, since the question is slightly open, this could refer to target platforms instead of what the actual developers are using on their desktops. Still, a nice-looking datapoint ;)

Anecdotally, as an IT chief I see developers who use Windows struggle with tasks that are simple in Linux and MacOS. There's a reason why a) MacOS won so many developers and why b) Microsoft is spending so many resources making WSL/WSL2.
Yes, see Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker:

The upshot of all this work can be summarized as follows: short sleep (of the type that many adults in first-world countries commonly and routinely report) will increase hunger and appetite, compromise impulse control within the brain, increase food consumption (especially of high-calorie foods), decrease feelings of food satisfaction after eating, and prevent effective weight loss when dieting.
There are plenty of temperate places that are not tropical and don’t host a ton of bugs. Speaking of bug, the Russian tundra or Alaska are an absolute bug nightmare come summer.
Conclusions from analyzing Y Combinator’s investing history
Should be noted that the ribbon can be customized (in most apps I've seen it anyway) and hidden. Many toolbars are not very resizable (for good reasons).

The big difference is fewer clicks to do what you most often do (with ribbons). The cost is using more space and possibly cluttering the UI. You can also argue easier discoverability, but I'd guess that's up for debate (seems to for my old parents, but that's a quite small sample size).
I got 12 cats and I tried all the buttons. Of course none worked. Checking the source I see the fault in line 296:

max_cats = level + 5;

At level 7 that's a possible maximum of 12.

Sure, if they find.

The issue with Itanium was not that market didn’t care of superior performance. The issue was that Itanium is slow. Market didn’t care for theoretical beauty over actual performance.

It is not the first time Intel does something similar. In the 80’s they tried to introduce an ”object oriented” processor. It was ridiculously slow and no-one cared about it.
I'm willing to bet you wouldn't refer to other groups as "flooding" NYC. Why do New Yorkers find it acceptable to say such things about Midwesterners?
When I give to charity I want to known that almost all the money is going to a cause and not spent on overhead

As for charities being run by volunteers
The American Red Cross paid its CEO ~700k in 2018 and spent ~110m on administrative expenses with ~89% of their income spent on programs, hardly a loose bunch of people

Just saying and people should make their minds on if the overhead of their favorite charity is appropriate.
And they are one of the better ones there are widely known charities with 20/30 % overhead. There was a charity that had most of its income spent on raising money !

Edit:
Cancer survivor charity spends 5% on programs.
Poor your friend with such awful experience.

I'm a native VNmese in HCMCity. My wife is a doctor, we also have lots of friends/relatives working as doctors, pharmacists,... so I hope my sharing is not quite irrelevant.

In VN, you can get medical service with the same quality as US, if you know the right place to go. Sometimes you can find doctors with excellent proficiency, since VN is a good evironment for doctors to practice their skill and knowledge (rare cases, severe cases due to bad sanitary & healthcare mindset).

But again, the biggest challenge is that "right place". Not all great doctors work in the biggest hospitals, and not all well-known doctors are great.

One has to wonder why even the author states specifically that loneliness is a problem in the "western world". Isn't it a problem elsewhere and if so, why? What does it really correlate with? Longer lifespans, smaller families, peace and security, wealth?
Ditto.

I tried intermittent fasting as an alternative to relatively fastidious calorie counting and ended up slowly gaining weight due to snackier food choices which I equalized with biweekly all day fasts. I'm sure I can make it work but I prefer meal prep and having regular energy levels throughout the day which gives me much more flexibility in terms of other fitness goals, i.e. I had a much narrow window of performance at gym under IF and I stopped mostly because my it got in the way of gym scheduling.
I'd recommend LXDE or XFCE for this kind of desktop. With this theme, you can even make XFCE look just like Windows 95.

When I ran a business, I was afraid of taking a vacation, so I kept working really hard without a break. One day I woke up and couldn't think straight. I had worked myself stupid. So instead of taking a vacation, I simply called in sick for a week and wasn't really in a position to enjoy it. So if you're anything like me, in a sense you're going to take time off regardless. What you need to drive is take a risk and hope everything will be OK. Try taking 2 days off and seeing what happens. Everything will probably be fine, and if your company flies apart the second you step away, just know that was probably gonna happen anyway.

That's not what's done when you deposit bottles in most automated "reverse-vending" machines in the US, it gets crushed/shredded then recycled off-site

That being said, this article shows the German version of that, and it looks identical:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/mar/30/has-germany-hi...

The action described also seems identical the the US version:

>Almost all German supermarkets have sophisticated “reverse vending machines” that will weigh and scan your bottle to match against a list of acceptable shapes and sizes.

>If your bottle is not on the retailer’s list, the machine spits the container back at you. If it matches, the bottle goes down a chute for either recycling or shredding, and the machine hands you a voucher with the added-up Pfand that you can then cash in at the till.
is there an alternative to the scientific method that I don't know about? I don't think I've seen anyone question the basic framework before
Remarkable?
I think the anti-inflammatory benefits are very real. Digestion is a taxing process, especially so with our modern western diets that are high in protein, sugar, and fat. There are anti-inflammatory diets that might work with similar results, but I imagine fasting is a much more fool-proof way to get the benefits.

The other benefits are more dependent on the individual. Like you, I tend to binge. But I also weigh myself every morning. If my weight is drifting up I find that it is easier to cutback on calories when I am only interacting with food for a limited time during the day. So yeah, it is a bit of a hack, but I think calling it a psychological shortcut sells it short. A typical modern western meal can easily be more than 1000 calories. And in a time when most folks work sedentary jobs, there is really no reason they should be eating 3 square meals a day plus snacks. From a diet perspective, intermittent fasting is basically just getting people to skip one of those meals a day. Maybe a good alternate name would be the '2 square meals diet'.
It sounds like your work consists of one contract for this company in China. That makes you vulnerable. You need to find other contracts. Once you have four or five lines of income you will be a true freelancer.
SIMD design itself isn't constant between different processor families. Any purported standardized language for scalar/vector hybrid either has to rely on a smart optimizer or be utterly platform specific.
Again, I get that. I’m not criticising people for caring about airpods. However I am getting downvoted for suggesting there’s other products out there. Thus it’s not me who needs to be more considerate of other people’s preferences.

I think you’re judging comment unfairly. This is a technology and business forum so the entire bloody point is to talk about technology and businesses. Yet for some reason when it’s a topic about Apple hardware people get really defensive if you happen to mention the competition (like one normally would in any other HN conversation). That’s not my issue; I’m not the inconsiderate one here.

But like I said, I’m own a lot of Apple hardware myself and do see the appeal of it. I also wouldn’t vote someone down if they offered some input on other hardware out there :)
You are arguing (plausibly imo) that reproducibility is not always necessary for successful science. But that is hardly a flaw with a reproducibility (as opposed to 'successful science') checklist.

This is actually true for Win 95 / classic Win UI. (However, you may want to reconsider the bevels, since the graphics tend to be a bit too heavy on a flat screen.)

P.S.: Many (including them myself) consider Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.x) as the epitome of a UI, which matched usability, conceptual space and visual design next to perfection considering the visual and stylistic preferences of the time. That said, I can also see, even if I do not appreciate the road taken specifically, why this wasn't sustainable with high resolution displays.

> If someone can't explain to me our company vision after 90 days, as well as their role in delivering it - I'm not saying they'll be fired but it's not a long term engagement between us

As a business owner, that would be your failure, not the new hire's. This seems like a highly US-centric point of view.

In reality, either you give you new hire resources to learn these things, i.e. give enough time on the clock to dedicate to this, as well as materials to learn from, or the person will not know these things.
Exactly. That's like saying to my friend I'm going to google some obscure topic only to pull out my phone and use DuckDuckGo instead. It's becoming a generalized term.

I'd say what is polarized isn't necessarily "all the people", instead the perceived discourse is polarized. And like in any really entrenched discourse, the one side thinks to know exactly what the other side wants and thinks, without ever talking to each other.

One of my best friends became a neonazi years ago. I don't live in that village anymore, but every 3 years I manage to meet him at some party or so. He has a extremely clear (and sadly utterly fantasized) image of my political goals and ideas. One of my goals is apparently to introduce muslim Sharia law nationwide, although I never ever mentioned anything about Sharia law to him.

It isreally hard to speak with him about anything at all, because he always seems to "know" what my opinion is, to the point of misrepresentation, while I am more or less just curious what he wants. What he says is usally a progression of: "I just want the foreigners to respect the rules!", "Deport the foreigners!" or "Shoot the foreigners!", depending on how many beers we are in. The whole thing is spiked with unsolicited explainations why liberal ideas "like mine" (although I am usually more on the realistic side) will never work and it sometimes feels he is telling this more to himself than to me.

This is rightwing Austria, his grandfather was a Nazi and this is where the discourse in the US is moving as well.
