I make a lot of my own worksheets. Mostly to print out and keep me on track for the day, week, month, etc.

The worksheets are mostly based on highly recommended books for productivity. Like GTD, Principles,
ONE Thing, OTT and many others.

I fill out the worksheets by hand. I archive the majority of the completed worksheets. And information that needs to be searchable gets transcribed into accompanying spreadsheets or documents.

The worksheets have been critical for maintaining my current projects without wasting time. They are great at helping me maintain strategies I've worked hard to acquire. They can also help teach these strategies.

I've been considering publishing these worksheets as I have dozens of them.

What would make you interested in using worksheets?
Another thing sales forgets is that the features you already have are more valuable than the new features to actual users. They always want to sell the new things, but provided features are added with most valuable first the earlier features will be more valuable than the new stuff. This gets really silly when they rush releases to get the new features and end up breaking old features, which actually decreases overall value of the software compared to releasing nothing new at all.
Not only that, but removing all of the artificial tariffs. Normalizing trade to where it was before trump would have serious upside and his successor will likely do it day 1. Legalize weed at the federal level and even more upside. Etc. what that president won’t have is a Fed with any ability to lower rates as by then they will be 0.

> it seems very unfair to paint Google as a prejudiced organization for carrying out a diversity exercise that is explicitly recommended by organizations who specialize in this field

The site [1] says the "diversity exercises listed below are geared toward college students, faculty and staff." Out the door, they're being mis-applied.

The PDF [2] is attributed to the "Office of First-Year Programs Northern Kentucky University". No names, let alone specialists.

For an organization (Google) claiming to be scientific about its decision making, they seem to have misapplied a program with a propensity for being abused, put it in the hands of someone without "a background or expertise in facilitating exercises that may be culturally sensitive," and retaliated against individuals who complained.

This is worth calling out.

Whenever I read stuff like this I am forced to wonder just what the fuck people are doing that they feel such a pressing need to hide their data from law enforcement.

These are fun to discuss. I do think it’s more interesting to discuss broader trends than individual politicians. Even if Trump loses, for example, there’s likely to continue to be serious populist, “anti multicultural” (to put it lightly) political forces to contend with across the globe in 2020s.

Moreover elites will continue to assume that demographics will eventually solve this problem, and continue to be disappointed when this doesn’t come true. All you have to do is look at slowing immigration in the US and how previous Democratic constituencies continue to switch towards the populist Republican messaging.
This is fairly controversial. Is there any example of a startup that actually made it by employing this strategy?

One of the truisms I've heard and have always followed is you need to release something you're embarrassed about, because that's the quickest way of getting user feedback, and understand if a user actually _wants_ that feature, and if it's actually worth spending time improving that feature.

It's easy to waste valuable capital paying attention to details that the user does not really care about.

EDIT: I've noticed that most of the software you posted here is very well established, most > 10 years. I'd be surprised if any of them follow "agile" by the books.

Don't we already heavily subsidize poverty via welfare programs? I don't see how throwing even more money at a problem would have a different outcome.
> They're mad that the object is heavy

When you get above a few kilograms there's also a biomechanical issue - the same reason the world record for clean and jerk is much higher than the world record for bicep curls, despite moving the weight a lot further.

Lifting something from waist height to chin height quickly, using big leg muscles to give it momentum, is easier than lifting it slowly using only arm muscles.

And nobody lifting 10kg trash bags for 8 hours a day is doing it the difficult way :)
As recognized, captchas are not effective in keeping determined people out. Nowadays the method to put some price tag for access seems to be to use SMS verification.

However not everybody is very determined. There are for example bots that are using the comment forms to send spam. The expected payout for each posted message must be really, really low.

This could be useful for example in the comment form plugins created for various content management systems.
The Internet Is No Longer a Disruptive Technology
To consider the flip side of a coin. This is the continued devaluation of monetary instruments.

You can look at as the s&p500 rose by 29%. Or you can look at it as "The USD" buys 23% fewer shares than last year. (ideally this would be adjusted for profit growth and inflation too)

IMO this is totally expected given negative interest rates and QE.
Exactly, I thought the same thing myself.

See, that wasn't so hard!!

I'll be here all week, try the lamb.
Well they are pretending to be a tech company to wall street and consumers, so someone is lying.
I always thought the prohibition amendment was about enforcing a nationwide ban, but individual states could (and did, no?) prohibit the personal consumption of alcohol as they saw fit before then? Is this not the same with other substances, and that's why some states have now legalized weed whereas others have not, because there's no nationwide law against these substances?

As an outside observer with an interest (but no formal education!) I find U.S. state/federal laws really confusing, and I'm sure I have all of the above mixed up. Would love to hear you expand your comment with some examples of how the constitutional protections are different now compared to then, and as you say watered down.
Kafka brokers handle connections to consumers and data storage. This creates contention as the primaries for each partition have to service the traffic and handle IO. Consumers that aren't tailing the stream will cause slowdowns because Kafka has to seek to that offset from files which aren't cached in RAM.

Pulsar separates storage into a different layer (powered by Apache Bookkeeper) which allows consumers to read directly from multiple nodes. There's much more IO throughput available to handle consumers picking up anywhere in the stream.
Whole milk compared with reduced-fat milk and childhood overweight
That would probably just result in a ticket, which must be paid immediately at the police station. But if you'd had one drop of alcohol in your system, it would have meant jail time. The DUI limit in Japan is much lower than in the US and even if you haven't been drinking the limit doesn't matter if the cop judges you to be impaired.
Having lived in the EU for a while now, random passport check roadblocks can appear at any border and can occur within a country’s border (including on a local bus, train, etc) - it happens in most Schengen countries and Germany’s random checks are some of the most frequent and annoying.

The DEAUTH thing is entirely incidental to the fully remote kernel code execution exploit chain.
Not for the same money, for much cheaper.

HiFive Unleashed is $1000 for the board with onboard RAM… but it does not have PCIe onboard, so if you want that, you could pay $2000 extra (!!) for the "HiFive Unleashed Expansion Board" that has a giant FPGA that has a PCIe root complex programmed on it.

HoneyComb LX2K is $750 for the board with 64GB eMMC + bring your own SODIMMs for RAM.

SolidRun also offers the MACCHIATObin for $339. 4-core A72 + 4GB full-size DIMM included. (The single-channel-ness of the RAM is not good for performance, but you can install a big 16GB DIMM no problem.) Both the LX2K and the mcbin have PCIe of course :)
'China is bad' is a bipartisan stance now. I doubt any successor will back down. Warren wants to go even further with cutting ties to China, haven't heard much from the rest of the pack (admittedly, I don't pay attention too much at this stage)

GP's comment is underrated. Engineering is about effectively managing to make something within constraints. Memory, CPU, I/O bandwidth, network outages, screen size, all constraints that engineers work within. Development time should be treated as a first class citizen among those constraints.

For example, if you're working on embedded software that gets flashed onto ROM as part of a device's trip down the assembly line onto a boat, and the factory is ramped, you can't just say, oh we just need another month because our estimate was way off. Something is getting flashed onto those ROMs starting Day 0. If you're an engineer working on this software, this constraint needs to be taken as seriously as the OS API or memory footprint.
Arguably some organs attempted balance via editors. Editors seemed to then exert balance on reporting on their reporters. Today I don’t think they act much as a moderating force.

Not the OP, but I believe he and you are talking about two different stages in the life of a company. He's describing mature products and organizations (as is the blog author), and you're talking about a company that is attempting to complete their first offering.

As soon as I finished this article I immediately thought of a thread from last week, "Focus has become more valuable than IQ"

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21906727

Watching energetic young kids run around, I can see how tempting it is to give them an interactive device which consumes their attention and makes them easier to handle. But phones seem designed to encourage the shortest possible attention spans and rabid multi-tasking, the opposite of deep focus. So what do you do? Is it as simple as banning phones, if you're willing to give them the needed attention? What about friends' phones and the Internet in general? What if they fall in love with web programming at the age of 8? You want them to be familiar with technology and ideally to be able to drift between multi-tasking and deep focus. I haven't read much on how to achieve this from a practical parenting perspective, though.
>That's also how a company trying to do its best to cover the sometimes ambiguous intent of diversity law will often interface to academia, so it's a fair approach in this context.

Agree that it provides cover for an org to defer to experts and best practices.

Hard disagree on the "fair approach" part. An outside individual examining this activity can be better than an organization simply trying to cover its legal bases.
I used blueprox for years with no fuss. Might try a different bt dongle.
Yes, it is related to the rally (we saw this in 06/07). And the time at which jobs become scarce is the time your portfolio is down 50-60% in six months, and you are taking income from a rapidly shrinking pile.

Don't risk everything you have for something you don't need.
life arose on Earth immediately after it cooled down and Earth then was nothing like what it is today. The organic chemical reactions are extremely probable not improbable.
It's written in Swift and Racket. Very interesting choice! The Racket code is beautiful, and I like that it's parsing user input as commands.

I have a bash script (named "j" for journal) that I wrote for a similar purpose. Throughout the day, I stash quick notes for reminders, as well as things to think about later (links, topics, ideas).

One feature a user might want is an overview of stashed notes.
