The changing nature of the job is definitely part of it. When you're on the steepest part of the learning curve, that makes up for a lot. I still learn plenty, but less than I used to. Instead, I spend a good deal of my time correcting mistakes made by those who hadn't learned yet. Mistakes happen, that's OK, but it's still less fun than learning new things myself. At my age/experience there's also an expectation that I'll do more "force multiplier" work - for me it's often fixing broken infrastructure - so that others can stay more productive with straight coding. Again, nothing wrong with it, but still less fun.

When it gets downright tiresome is when being the project janitor puts me in conflict with young "tech leads" who denigrate those contributions because they've only ever worked on that one project where other people took care of those things for them. It's like the difference between living in a college dorm where everything's taken care of for you, vs. having a house and kids and bills of your own. Being a strict individual contributor with no cares beyond the one piece of code in front of me is just a fond memory.

Unfortunately, few companies will hire someone with 30+ years' experience just to write code, even for a salary appropriate to that role. Companies want to pay those lower salaries not only for direct work product but also for growth potential. The worst part is, I know they're not wrong. The only way to do the kind of work I really enjoy, and only that work, is as a hobby.
WSL 1 also supports the 9p file server and \\wsl$, you just have to upgrade to at least Windows 10 1903.

(Also, hints are that Microsoft is exploring adding shortcuts to \\wsl$ directly to the File Explorer left hand tree.)
I think as people age and seeing things clearly requires you hold them at arm's length, smaller screens will lose their appeal.

But young people, especially teenagers, wow they can still focus at the ends of their noses.

That depends a lot on what's meant by "refurb". I've had some that had had a screen and battery replacement, and they work and last like new, as they should. I've also had some that were sold as "refurbished" despite having had, at most, a wipe down with Windex to get the fingerprints off. Those don't do so well, but if you're handy, you can do your own refurbs with $80 in parts and an hour or so of work, and get the same like-new result modulo whatever damage exists to the case.
If the bar is "I don't want any code I write to be used for purposes which I do not personally endorse" then yes, it's probably a good idea to go work for a mission-driven non-profit and never make open source contributions to anything ever again
New scene rules for x265, starting May 11th
It's freeing, but it can also be a trap. Countless people just drive through beautiful places, watching idly out the window, and as quickly as they came, leave it in their rear-view. Or maybe they hop out at an easy overlook, spend three minutes, and get back in the car.

I've begun advocating for more focused road trips. Go to one place. Stay there. Find things to do. Camp, hike, run, bike, etc. The popular "let's hit as many places as we can" mode results in never really experiencing any of the places you visit.

Use any other pair of bluetooth headphones on get lightning wired headphones or use the headphone dongle.

I was annoyed when Apple initially got rid of the headphone jack but I've been without it for quite some time now and it's not really a bother. Even if you have to charge while having the wired headphones in, there is a dongle for that. I suppose if that's a very frequent use case, I can see the annoyance.

My last iPhone that had the headphone jack required frequent cleaning of the jack or else it would get clogged with accumulated dust and make the speaker very quiet.

You should be a bit skeptical of both. Trusting the courts is foolish and dangerous, in this case and in general.
I might be wrong, but I thought any human trial needs at least a full one-year follow-up to make sure that the vaccine didn't cause any damage, side effects, reactions, etc, and that indeed created long term immunity.

It seems to me that rushing the timelines potentially opens up a lot of risks for post-vaccine side effects. Doesn't it?
Economic Implications for a Modern-day Pandemic from 1918 Influenza [pdf]
I know a few people that still have the SE, and for all of them it was mainly about the size. That and a belief that they didn't want to be glued to their phone all the time. So the benefit was a combination of the smaller size being more ergonomic, plus the fact that less content fit on the screen was actually a pro for them because the extra friction encourages wasting less time on it.

It does seem weird that instead of continuing to serve this market, Apple assumes everyone wants their same large form factor and it's only a matter of price.

On the other hand, maybe we're just in a bubble. Trying to avoid consumer tech even though you could easily afford it is a rather niche, privileged view of a subset of people that work in tech. Maybe outside this bubble there's a much larger group of people who do want the big, more up to date designs and price is the only consideration.
> between 7% and 28% of hospitalized have acute myocardial injury

So, for a younger (< 60) otherwise healthy person whose chance of death with covid is less than 1%, it would seem ill advised to take this medication at the onset of symptoms, unless the the disease itself causes similar or higher rates of heart damage.

The most interesting aspect of the phone for me is that it looks to have the 16:9 ratio that's been abandoned industry-wide for 19:9, which I find to be extremely narrow.

I'm still holding on to my 4-year old Galaxy S7 because it's 5-inch, 16:9 display is just the right size. I have a newer 19:9 phone and even with fairly large man-hands, I struggle to reach the corners of the screen with my thumb, which is where most menu items are located.

JavaScript developers can't interface to the browser

I'm not sure I've worked directly with anyone recently who could pass a DOM test like that. Everything is React and and Axios and the browser (and HTTP, TCP, DNS, etc) is a mystery.

Edit: mystery isn't even the right word really, if you mention any of the other layers I've seen people get actually hostile.
The big advantage of eLisp is it inherited the capability of changing a running program while it is running from earlier lisps. Schemes, including Racket, generally can't do that.

So with eLisp, it's natural to allow editing config.el and reloading without restarting Emacs. It's possible to do in languages outside the Common Lisp branch of the tree of life. But it's a Turing tarpit. The default is changing a program requires killing the existing instance and restarting. That's fine for a distributed application because there are lots of instances. In a word processor, a single thread is a reasonable abstraction.
You can admire some aspects of the campaign/platform without agreeing with the people/policies.
Thanks for sharing that. It sounds like first and foremost, everyone wanted to do right by their friend. That alone is touching, and I'm glad that the final article was the tribute you all hoped for. It was heartbreaking and beautiful, and was an honor to be let into the lives of everyone involved.

My prayer is that while this time is emotional, the process and article also provide a degree of healing as well. Again, thanks for sharing.
Looks nice. The hardest part about scheduling meetings as a project manager in my org is when there's no timeslot available for everyone needed for a meeting. I have to check each of their schedules and weigh the importance of their attendance vs my guess of the importance/reschedulability of their conflict in order to decide who will need to reschedule/cancel/skip something. Sometimes this is simply a "do not book/focus time" block which (depressingly) works out best.

It looks like Zynq currently works based on the "available" slots on calendars, which is probably convenient for many meetings, but not really a big deal for me. Do you think any tooling/features could help address the issue I've described?

Most modern Apps follow established lingua and concepts on the fundamental and often middle levels.

You can repeat that statement in 2020, 2010, 2000, 1990 ... the only problem is that outside of a very small subset what is "established" has changed. And likely will again.
You could do something as simple as making the links blue instead of purple and it would already be an infinitely better design because people assume purple links have been visited.

Yeah, the mistake of using numbers instead of names gives the impression that 2 is strictly better than 1 and that migrations are unidirectional upgrades.

Even just letters like WSL-A and WSL-B might have given a better impression.
> However, insurance companies are treating such citations as a similar risk to having a DWI/DUI citation;

Insurers have a strong financial incentive to have "mass market" infractions that don't really tell you anything about someone's risk in the highest category in any state that uses a points system because the points system provides a "we're all gonna charge these people more" pact with the other insurers and they can get the actual violation data they use for risk assessment in other ways (usually straight from the DMV's api).

I'm not defending phone usage but I think anyone with an IQ above freezing can see that the average instance of it (which around here is people texting at red lights) is not as big of a risk indicator as a DUI citation.

1VIBE has it's own weekly newsletter but you had an interesting suggestion about allowing users to create their own newsletters from their own submissions. I think this is something to think about in the future when we gain a lot of users who are actively submitting.

We did want to mirror mixtapes on the main top streaming platforms but right now we really like Spotify and support what they are doing. If a lot of ppl start to complain about why our mixtape/playlist is not on "Apple Music" for example, then we will make it available there. Tbh streaming platforms further fragmented music/hip-hop so we are not always happy about having to duplicate everything we do on all platforms. It's like those ppl you see automating their Instagram posts all over Twitter.

r/HHH is a great community but as you said, a lot more spam than signal. Worldstar is legendary but there is a lot of questionable content on there. Def not the best representation of hip-hop industry/culture imo.

> The final straw however was "move fast and break things". Basically pump out change for the sake of change and let the end user do quality control.

The worst part is how this leads to more on-call and an increase in working off-hours.
I’d assume this new SE, like the 6, 6S, 7, and 8 before it, will continue to prompt users during the initial out-of-box setup process if they want to run their display in “zoomed-in” mode, making the resolution effectively identical to the 4” screen of the older smaller phones.

This is effectively an accessibility feature, but Apple proactively prompts users to enable it.
I actually like the "borders" on top and bottom, makes it easier to hold and use the phone.

That said, Apple is really taking the piss with these displays. Just like the iPhone 11, not only is the resolution laughable (Apple used to be a leader here, what happened?) but it's also IPS LCD, which uses more power and has worse viewing angles and colors.

OLEDs are excellent and competitors at this price point have them, so why not Apple?
I don't watch tv a few yards away, but point taken people have different lifestyles and needs. I should have rephrased the context to be my surprise that the big phones came to totally dominate the market, when it makes them harder to handle and more cumbersome to keep on your person. I didn't think consuming content would completely trump that, not with the simultaneous rise of tablets. Choice is good.
I can tell you that working with legacy turd (that will probably run for another decade or more) isn't necessarily much better.

Again the deadlines and lack of planning ahead bites. Look we just need this little feature now, it can't take long? And again, and again. You never get enough time to take a step back and re-evaluate design decisions (or, God forbid, plan ahead and do it right in the first place) and fix what wasn't done right. No, it's always this little feature that needs to be quickly hacked in, another branch, another special case, how it interacts with other past or future special cases is anyone's guess, and the code base that was already full of hastily hacked together barely-functional crap grows more and more poorly thought out crap. Tests? What tests? No tests, so if you dare go back and try quickly fix some poor design.. well, someone is eventually hopefully going to find out what you broke and give you a completely uninformative bug report. Updates? Well there's no ticket for that. And besides, something might break, because there are no tests. There's no ticket for tests.

Sometimes you might even wish that the whole thing would be discarded and done from scratch..
Headphone jack is overrated. Keep the DAC as close to your ears as possible if you are an audiophile. For the rest of us casual listeners, the adapter is fairly cheap and just keep one connected to your headphones (or in the headphone bag if you got one).
That's basically what I did... and you're right, took me around 2 hours. The problem is that when I re-booted the machine, the VM just didn't work anymore and nothing I did would bring it back to life.
I could have spent another 2 hours re-doing everything, if I had infinite amounts of time to play with this stuff, but I don't.

Yeah, I'd agree with that for the most part. I think Django's strength is in rapidly building out custom CMS systems. It isn't bad a web apps, but I still think Rails would be my go-to for those.
Yeah no this is not happening, the young people will revolt before that. You can suspend civil liberties for a few months, that's fine, but not intermittently over several years. No way that governments in western countries will get away with that. I expect this to be an event that will remove most baby-boomers from power and bring in the millennial generation, they expect us to support ~5 old people through most of our productive life and now they created or are about to create debt that we will have to pay off for the rest of our lives. A lot of it is to prop up pension schemes and assets which are primarily owned by old people and projected to have collapsed by the time a 30 year old will retire.
Wow this is pretty aggressively priced. It’s very unlike Apple to
self-compete like this. It looks like this will eat into the iPhone 11 sales.
Because HCQ’s efficacy was briefly endorsed by a controversial political figure I fear that there’s no evidence in either direction will convince the true believers. This is now a political issue, like global warming. Hopefully someone is ramping up production so availability improves for those that actually need it.
This trial wasn't randomized, but a quasi randomized trial for HCQ whose preprint was leaked is here:https://www.dropbox.com/s/8b2govfsa6n0xbq/NEJM_Clinical%20Ou...
Study indicates that one adverse effect of HCQ (on top of not improving patient outcomes) is increased ventilator times.

That's because it's not hydroxychloroquine that helps them. It's Zinc. It just allows for much better absorption of the Zinc. Same can be achieved by combining Quercetin and Zinc.

Impact meaning my impact on the product, not my impact on humanity as a whole. I get more satisfaction from a larger impact on a product that affects less people than less impact on a product that affects many more people.
I'd always heard that, and so growing up I tried the whole "go for a drive" thing many times. I found it felt good in the moment, but when I got home I was just as wrapped around the axle as when I left. I came to think of it as something like trying to drown your problems in ̶a̶l̶c̶o̶h̶o̶l̶ petrol.

I've found moderate exercise has a more lasting effect.
I'm very interested in pivoting toward electrical engineering from computer engineering (for all the reasons mentioned above). Do you have any advice on how to do this? I don't even know where to begin, but I imagine there's a lot of certification and/or educational requirements.
France should call this bluff. Amazon is trying to push around a democratically enacted law. They are not above the law.

If Amazon was suspended in France a domestic competitor would rise up in a year or two, and Amazon would never regain the market. They would not dare suspending services, this is just a disgusting stunt
As to `#lang python` interop with Racket, it's possible, but the farther a language's semantics and object model differ from Racket, the harder and less pleasant it is to build and use in practice.
In other words, you need converters between runtime values between Racket and Python when their semantics differ.
For example, Python strings are instances of Python's string class, with a bunch of methods, and you can mutate the string class at runtime.
They are very different from Racket's strings.
Then you have all the differences in core reduction semantics, how concurrency and parallelism is handled, etc, and there are a lot of differences to smooth over.

There is a project called PyonR (https://github.com/pedropramos/PyonR) that implements Python 2.7 as a Racket #lang, but it hasn't been developed for a while, and I'm not sure how interoperable it actually is.
It certainly isn't to the point where you could pull in your favorite Python package from PyPI to use in Racket, but it does claim that you can use Racket functions in your Python code at least.
The hardest part just using PyPI packages is probably that many of the most important Python packages lean on Python's C FFI, which is a large extra hurdle, though there are many worthwhile packages that are pure Python code.

The most successful Racket #langs are languages that fit a particular domain or style of programming better than basic Racket, but that lean on Racket's core semantics and object types as a building block rather than something to be constantly slightly different from in ultimately unimportant ways.
While working with Racket, these languages may be very different from the core Racket language, such as documentation languages (scribble), logic languages (datalog), shells (rash), database query languages, etc.
If you just wanted to let people write new code for their editor in a language that looks and feels like Python alongside Racket and its #langs, it would be a much easier project to make a language with Pythonic syntax (syntax is shallow), easy constructors for Python-like lists and such (just a few custom datatypes), and a Python-like way of providing generic operators (eg. __magic_method__), etc, but otherwise with semantics closer to Racket's.
Frankly, you would end up with a better language than Python anyway, with powerful features that most Pythonistas haven't dreamt of. (Bias revealed!)
But I do dream of having a `#lang python` implementation good enough to just use Python packages in a pinch when Racket doesn't have an equivalent package.
It's possible, but it's a big enough project and there is little enough manpower in the Racket world that nobody is seriously working on it.

Ha, yeah, you've captured it nicely. I have a TODO list 25 items long of problems to try to track down; occasionally I'll pick one off, but I think the list is growing faster than it's shrinking.

It's an open question, but I suspect it's not impossible to have both a robust and flexible system...think Emacs, but instead of the wild-west of Lisp as the extension language, something more in the vein of Rust...
I agree, thanks for the numbers. I'll suggest to incorporate this into our Q2 OKRs.
