That's definitely a fair assessment. I am not exactly regretting buying a diesel truck with 6 tires. I WISH it were electric.

The problem is, there is not a single manufacturer of EV that can tow either my current or previous RV. The previous RV was a fifth wheel that was 18000 pounds. That's higher than both Rivian and Cybertruck specs.

My Current RV is a truck camper (A HUGE ONE) that requires a 5000 pound payload capacity. That is also not in the cybertruck or rivian specs.

Ford's only migrating the F150 (I think?) which is far below my requirements too.

On top of all that, none of them are going Dually yet.

So it's fair to say, at this point in time, that's still at least 10 years off before ALL payloads and tow capacities reach diesel equivalents.

This whole thing is just an aside - all of the parameters currently displayed in in my truck could be replaced with digital LCD displays, even if it's not an EV. I'm only arguing for standards here.

I managed to avoid that problem although I read about it plenty. It was my first Android phone, but I liked it except for the battery life issues, which were, frankly, brutal. Regularly shuts down at 50% battery. To replace the battery you are pretty much guaranteed to break parts of the camera assembly (the cover).

I'm not sure how blame should be apportioned between Google and the manufacturer though.

i love pass on GNU/linux but occasionally have to use OS X for a particular sponsor. the brew impl of pass using zsh does not seem to be autocompleting. i believe i have installed the correct autocompletions and mucked with .zshrc (.zshenv does not seem to be respected on OS X).

any recommendations for OS X? is it worth building from source and/or getting it working outside of brew?
To me, the most important thing is to fit one's career in with one's overall purpose and goals in life. Like, to make sure the ladder of success is not leaning against the wrong wall (Covey).

I was a postdoc or I was employed in similar roles (Research Fellow, Reseach Scholar) for close to 10 years before moving into tech.
Although I overall enjoyed my postdoc years – in particular, I enjoyed doing research, writing papers, and having the freedom to explore and travel – I kinda regret not having been more pro-active during those years in terms of looking for what was next. I sent ~ 70 job applications for TT jobs that I believed were within my reach (I had > 25-30 publications with me as a first author, some of them published in prestigious journals, and a research plan that I had the belief was forward-looking, and novel and solid at the same time), but I was not called even for a phone interview by any of the committees. I have a few clues about why that happened, but it is not relevant here.

What I recommend to postdocs of Ph.D. students when they reach out to me asking for some advice on what to do in their career, I always recommend not to pursue a second postdoc. One can be fine and fun, you become basically a senior researcher in a field you feel some passion for, and you do not have the stress of completing and defending 5+ years of work (my Ph.D. actually lasted less than 3 years). But by starting your second postdoc, with no solid chances of landing a TT position at a good research institution (I assume that it is what most people continuing their postdoc career are looking forward to getting), you get deeper and deeper into a maze from which it becomes more and more difficult to find a way out; you start to become too old and credentialed for junior or mid-level positions, people in tech (or industry more in general) identify you as an academic – which is always a bad thing if you are not a renowned academic in a particular niche of current interest, say NLP, Computer Vision –, you lose your confidence in being able to change your career.
However, the story does not have a happy ending. Very rarely, these postdocs listen to me; they prefer to succumb to the authoritarian voices of their advisors and peers, who more often than not say that if they do good work, they will find a TT position soon, maybe they just need another publication, a little grant, or some luck.
That's pretty cool! Have you thought about making it into a PWA and ditch the proprietary ios/android ecosystems and just allow anyone with a browser to use it? It doesn't seem like there is much in this app that NEEDS to be a "mobile" specific app. It looks like you could do it all with html/js and some local storage. I'm a big believer in open crossplatform systems, when it's possible. Obviously if you need access to hardware sensors, etc, it wouldn't work very well.
It's contextual. Amateurs shouldn't be doing professional level work.
At some point people will realize that Twitter doesn't matter. The sooner that happens the better.

For whatever reason, our elites and media are convinced Twitter is very important. Nothing is worse than getting criticized by the peanut gallery. Twitter can end careers, cancel television shows, bring down elected officials.

That power quickly turned from, "complain about lost baggage on Twitter and get an airline ticket voucher for $50" to "I demand anyone I disagree with be exiled to Elba."

The truth is Twitter already doesn't matter, like, at all to almost everyone. Ask your aunt or brother-in-law about what's trending on Twitter and you'll get a blank stare. But journalists and elites continue to be terrified of, and enthralled by Twitter. They've collectively forgotten that "sticks and stones may break my bones..."

Typo, I meant the very early 1900s not the very early 1990s. Aspirin was prescription only until 1915.

The story of willowfine is roughly as well known as penicillin. The point is that in 1910-1920 people didn't carry NSAIDs in their purse and pop 400 mg when they felt a headache coming on or their back hurt. That's a big difference.

It's also worth noting that right at that point, the supply of aspirin was very limited due to phenol shortages caused by the war.
> The most lasting and effective way to change your life is to change who you’re surrounded by. Since networks so powerfully shape who we are and what we do, the best way to change ourselves is to change our networks.

It's true, that different codons are transcribed with different speed but I've never heard that this would lead to differences in folding. Speed of translation is nevertheless used in order to signal shortage of amino acids or to implement modification.

When you're doing protein expression, it's a standard procedure to do a codon optimization in order to adapt the codons to your host expression system. When you're expressing a human protein in yeast or ecoli the codons will be quite different but the folding is the same. If translation wouldn't show this stability it would be difficult to use foreign expression systems at all.

HN is pretty good at moderating discussions. Which is the main reason I come here. Still, I've seen plenty of beef only thinking here and I too have been guilty at times.

It can be quite frustrating when you make an observation about someone's comment only to have them automatically assume you were in disagreement. It's good to assume a generous interpretation. Since tone is so hard to gauge on the Internet, discussions quickly devolve otherwise.
"starter" implies a cheap piece of shit throwaway that you're going to graduate from if you want to get anywhere serious. with "amateur" you feel like you won't need to replace/graduate until you're ready to go pro.
That would be laughably ineffective. Police would be off protecting garbage dumps and book club meetings while banks get robbed and protests devolve into violence.

>A lot of tech solutions to transportation problems are reinventing elements of mass transit.

For sure. And I feel like they're going about it backwards by defaulting to maintaining norms of private property and leasing things starting with private/personally owned property and developing ways to lease it to for communal use.

They'd probably have a more viable business model if they had started with communal property and charged rent or usage fees for maintenance instead. Jitney cabs or dollar vans have been around forever, and their big challenge was figuring out how to do dispatch and routing in a way that didn't give people intolerably long wait times.

I was a longtime LastPass customer, but the service just kept getting worse and worse, to the point where a year ago I realized I was spending more time fighting the user interface than it was saving me. And their support was absolutely useless.

So I also switched over to 1Password, and never looked back. It is such a refreshing and trouble free experience compared to LP, and the few times I needed to ask a question, their support team got right back to me with the correct answer the first time.
I've been investing for over 20 years, since the late 90's. I've met many folks, most of them engineers, who are just scared to invest. It takes practice. You gotta screw up and learn from your mistakes, like anything else.

I keep about 75% of my investments in index funds (Vanguard) and another 25% in direct stock investments. Last years returns were about 29% on the funds, 37% on my stocks. 2019 was totally insane. 2018 was not so good. I barely broke even!

I’ve always wondered about this. Of course back-testing a specific timeframe doesn’t mean anything.

Yes, Form Builder, in Orbeon Forms, allows you to create a page with form fields, use the provided values to call a REST/CRUD API, and show the result on that page. You can try that out for yourself on demo.orbeon.com, or download the software and run it locally.

There is an open source (LGPL) Community Edition, but the services & actions feature you need for this is only available in the Professional Edition. This being said, if you just need this for your own local testing, you can get a trial license (automatic process, valid 3 months, no limit on number of licenses you get), and have fun with it.

The only code you never have to touch again is code nobody is using. In which case, it's like a corporation declaring bankruptcy: the debt becomes moot.

Otherwise, you always have to deal with it eventually. Look at the Y2K problem. or how the 2038 problem is starting to crop up already, exposing significant levels of technical debt. https://twitter.com/jxxf/status/1219009308438024200

I also think technical debt does accrue interest over time, albeit not as linearly as a modern installment-plan debt does. That's because it slowly falls out of sync with people's memories. With libraries, with operating systems, with techniques. Bad code I wrote 10 minutes ago is pretty easy to clean up. But the next day, the next month, the next year? The cleanup gets more expensive. At some point the work becomes more archaeology than normal programming.

It's also true that actual foundations have something in common with foundational code. But that's a different aspect of programming than what tech debt is pointing at.
