One example: we have our unconscious and sometimes we hide things from ourselves and strongly resist any attempt from ourselves or other people to expose that stuff.

Psychologists are experts in defusing such resistance and helping us work with that unconscious content, content that most people probably aren't very skilled in helping with.

Sorry - I though he was being a bit juvenile and felt like being similarly dismissive was appropriate.

I regularly switch between MacOS, Windows, and desktop Linux both for work and for home; I love fiddling around with settings and configurations to get things to work, but only sometimes and only when it’s on my terms. The rest of the time I just want it to work, out of the box or off the install disk.

I’m always going to love tinkering with Arch from time to time, but then I get my work done on Fedora or similar.

I've never done a 7 day fast and before I do I'd like to be better informed. What do you mean when you say the smelliest? What does it smell like? Is there some kind of smell throughout the fast? Thank you
I'd love to know what metrics they were optimizing for when they introduced this feature.

They've only disrupted their day to talk to you, in many cases having done these increasingly-prevalent and always-bullshit 4+-hour "exercises", and they have way less time to be allocating than you do. That's all they've done. Their time isn't deserving of respect and it's just downright ridiculous to think that it's the decent thing to do to tell them something that might, just might, not make it a waste for them to have spent it.

> efficient no,

How is it not efficient? Elections Canada figures out how to count ballots in a few hours. 95% of the work of putting on an election is setting up, and running the polling stations. Using an electronic system is not going to make that 95% any easier.

The only thing that would make it easier, is purely mail-in ballots, like in Washington State.

> and largely one of the reason for low participation rates (though far from the only)

Canada has a 5-15% higher voter turnout rate.
The Autoplay is REALLY, REALLY, A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G!!!

Actually, I hate most of the current design (UI/UX). It's really streamlined when all you want to do is push "play", but everything else is, quite frankly, laborious.
Indeed, think, if apple had only kowtowed a few years ago we could be using the wonderful mini-usb forever. A single plug means never migrating from whatever is standardized now, because doing so would me violating the law.

Never mind the bizarre obsession the usb group had with making as many holes to get stuff stuck in as possible, nor the excessively loose tolerances in the spec.

But hey, now we get to have usb-c forever, with no way for any company to move to anything else.
I don't see C anywhere near being "deprecated" in general. Usage of Rust/Zig/ATS/whatever is a rounding error by comparison to C/C++, even for new projects. Anecdotally, I've been interviewing with a few startups building ambitious infrastructure-level projects, and none of them are using Rust. C/C++ is still the only game in town outside the HN bubble.
For the first time in a VERY long career, I joined Google a few years ago, which is an open office company.

The thing I noticed in the first week: Everyone avoided eye contact all the time. The thing I noted after six months: I'd learned to avoid eye contact at all times.

So I'm kind of not surprised. It was counter intuitive to me that open office was less social; but personal experience suggests that open office is less social.

Support varies, you should purchase devices that include hardware which is supported by the Open Source drivers (even if you have to compromise and it still uses some small blobs that are free to distribute).

You should also purchase a device that includes enough storage space and RAM to support more than the bare minimum; that will help keep things future proof.

I can closely relate to this post. Often times I build and develop software that is simply not worth my time. I think one important thing that you are doing well is capturing data for revenue. I think you should also take your hourly rate and multiply it by the amount of time it is taking you and that will give you a better idea of what this is costing you to build. I've started to capture this data for myself (https://marcell.me) to get a better idea of what it is actually costing me.

Interesting. I phoned and complained about this as soon as Netflix started doing it - I think it was about two years ago! What really got me (and I pointed this out to the cutomer service rep) was that the first preview that showed included several swear words. I thought that that argument alone would be enough, let alone how annoying it is to have a stupid light and sound show while I am browsing.

So all I can say is "about time"!

The venerable master Qc Na was walking with his student, Anton. Hoping to prompt the master into a discussion, Anton said "Master, I have heard that objects are a very good thing - is this true?" Qc Na looked pityingly at his student and replied, "Foolish pupil - objects are merely a poor man's closures."

Chastised, Anton took his leave from his master and returned to his cell, intent on studying closures. He carefully read the entire "Lambda: The Ultimate..." series of papers and its cousins, and implemented a small Scheme interpreter with a closure-based object system. He learned much, and looked forward to informing his master of his progress.

On his next walk with Qc Na, Anton attempted to impress his master by saying "Master, I have diligently studied the matter, and now understand that objects are truly a poor man's closures." Qc Na responded by hitting Anton with his stick, saying "When will you learn? Closures are a poor man's object." At that moment, Anton became enlightened.

Almost...the 2nd stage is one use only. I saw a post on Reddit that estimated that each 2nd stage costs SpaceX about $10M...which is peanuts.
If you start at the bottom there is a lot of up to rise into and no down to further sink. Same at the opposite end: all the nepotism and Ivy Leagues in the world won't be able to keep some billionaire spawn from sinking and there are no higher ranks to rise into. Their average mobility can only be negative. I guess I'd still prefer being a failing trust fund baby over the upward mobility of rags to better rags, despite a considerable delta in sense of achievement (rags to better rags might actually be happier with themselves).
had a datetime, confirmed the day prior, to speak with Ian. He didnt send a hangout link even though I requested it the day prior to our time tp speak. I requested a hangout link right before the agreed time, didnt get it. He wrote that his schedule was messed up and needed to reschedule to 1 week later. I asked him to answer the following questions in the meantime:

* Is this a full-time position, if not, what type of position is it?
* What position(s)/team(s) am I being considered for?
* What technologies/languages would I be using during the role?
* What would my average day look like?
* What is the vision for the company/role over the next year?
* What will the technical/onsite interviews consist of and how long will it be?
* What is the timeline for this role and what are the stages from the current to the offer?
* How long will I get to decide on an offer?
* Do you offer reimbursement for travel and food expenses during the onsite process? How will I be reimbursed?
* What is the start date of the position?
* Who is your competition?
* What is the compensation range (broken down by category such as equity, salary, signon bonus, etc)?

Here was Ian's response: "If you don't think you can commit to a phone call before getting answers to these questions, then that is probably a sign that this is not a great fit for either of us. Let's just save us both the time and move on."

Very ironic Ian, especially since I wanted to do both the senior software engineering and data scientists roles due to my relevant background.
I like the part about writing things down. There is a lot of mental organization that needs to happen when you write it down. It also forces you to make decisions.. which is also hard.

Quite to the contrary, it's often said that alcoholism is a self-diagnosed disease. Certainly combating it is much harder without that acknowledgement. Likewise, I can't imagine a qualified psychologist or psychiatrist berating someone in the same way you have for simply wondering if they have manifestations of negative social behavior. Surely many people would miss out on opportunities to reflect and change were they to take your advice.
It was right around the time their first "Originals" came out. I guess accurate recommendations is less important than shows with cheaper licensing costs or home-grown originals.
First, try just 1-2 days but remove all caffeine/sugar like a week ahead. Once you can do 1-2 days without any major problems, try doing 3 days (Friday + weekend). Once you are fine with that, try 5-7 days, water + electrolytes only, no food, no juice; drink however as much as you want, if you feel weird, drink more (always with electrolytes). If something really feels off, have some energy bars ready to intervene and break fast quickly and safely. Also, check yourself for diagnoses that might respond badly to fasting and in that case avoid doing it.
I'm pretty sure the new recommendation algorithm is basically just "recommend Netflix originals in a random order".

Edit: I feel like I should add something besides a snarky comment:

I was searching for a mid-2000s Best Picture Nominee a few days ago (something like Munich or Capote, but don't remember). Results 1 & 2 were The Irishman and Marriage Story. None of the other non-Netflix best picture nominees were anywhere in the results if that was the connection they were making.
I haven't used this tool, but I imagine using the "-f" option to run a script could be much nicer than writing a bash script. Bash (or any Unix shells) aren't really known as great environments for tasks that don't fit comfortably on a single line.

Voter ID laws disproportionately disenfranchise minority communities.

https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/what-we-know-about-vote...

11% of U.S. citizens – or more than 21 million Americans – do not have government-issued photo identification.

These voters are disproportionately low-income, racial and ethnic minorities, the elderly, and people with disabilities. Such voters more frequently have difficulty obtaining ID, because they cannot afford or cannot obtain the underlying documents that are a prerequisite to obtaining government-issued photo ID card.

Definitely viewthrough rate (i.e. % of people who subsequently view the video after hovering over a video thumb and the autoplay triggers vs. normal viewthrough rate after hovering over a thumb).

Of course, a weakness of this testing is failing to account for negative metric impact outside of the one you are optimizing.
Socializing healthcare doesn't eliminate the cost calculus, it just shifts it to a different group of deciders. It feels icky to attach a price tag to human life, but in a world where resources are not infinite, and healthcare requires resources, those decisions have to be made somehow.
> I've been a vulnerability researcher since around 1995. I feel significantly better about security today than I have at any point in the past.

Do you really feel that way considering what is internet (or other accessible networks) connected today compared to 1995?

Personally I feel the opposite (although I haven't been in the game as long) because of a lot of critical infrastructure is getting connected without a lot of security. A lot of surveillance cameras, door stations, networks that in 1995 would be localized failures are now national or global. People find open, password-less VNC into control panels for powerplants just by scanning the internet. Equifax, Turkeys MERNIS and on and on and on.

I don't get the sentiment that things are getting better in this area.

So it sounds like for people able to use the app (maybe limited in part due to the use of TestFairy free tier (from a different vice article)), the app correctly got data into Google Cloud Functions, but a script used to transfer the data from there to the Iowa Democratic Party (not sure what they were using) didn't work correctly (due to a "data formatting error"). Some people were confused by the three six digit numbers needed, a precinct id, PIN, and two-factor code (auth0, according to the other vice article with screenshots).

ProPublica also found there was a MITM vulnerability:

Finally. I've been so frustrated about the autoplaying previews, especially since I've experienced that after a few seconds, the menu will fade out and Netflix will play the video as if you had clicked "Play". But I haven't clicked "Play", I only happened to rise up from my couch, hear the preview starting, do whatever for 30 seconds and then come back having to stop or restart the episode.

Absolutely terrible. I'm really happy Netflix has given us a way out.
Ah - good to know and glad to hear it for the sake of my former colleagues; Apple had already redesigned the USB kernel interfaces to make this more difficult and I wasn’t sure how they were going to keep doing this at all.

Apple clearly doesn’t want this to happen, they only want to be able to say they’re making progress in the right to repair issue. I used to have a shop for professional audio and was an authorized repair center for many top brands, never heard of such BS as Apple is asking, I had to repair the warranties for a flat rate (they would send the needed parts) the benefit for the shop was the out of warranty repairs and the availability of parts and info, we had inspections too but they were just to verify that the shop and personnel was up to the quality of the products.

I recommend getting clear guidance from your supervisor on what 'tech lead' means to them. A lot of the commenters here think tech lead is a management position however you shouldn't assume that your employer has that same view. It doesn't sound like you are a 'team lead' otherwise your position would be called 'team lead' and not 'tech lead'. Therefore you don't have any real control over what anyone does, you can't make people do things, and you will be responsible for leading the tech, so you can't really delegate that away to individual contributors. Good luck.
