I'm over 50, and this is the killer. Not only for others, but also to avoid personally.

It's very, very easy to get into a "grumpy old fart" mindset, where anything new or changing is dismissed out of hand. I've had to fight hard to stop this from happening, and it's still my first response to anything new.

Having said that, there are sometimes good reasons for dismissing something new. But only after taking the time to understand it and why everything else thinks this is cool.

If I'm interviewing a 50+ for a job, I want to see evidence that they haven't fallen into Grumpy Old Fart syndrome.

The converse is also true - if I'm interviewing someone younger, I want to see evidence that they're not caught up in tech fads. Too many times I've seen good tech thrown away because it's not in the hip-and-happening language/framework/platform/etc. And there's a lot to learn from the mistakes of the past ;) And having some idiot kid explain to me why Mongo is soo awesome and SQL is obsolete gets tiring fast [0].

But to be honest, I'd be worried if I had to interview for a role. It'd be a sign that my network wasn't where I'd like it to be. Keeping that up to date is as valuable as keeping the tech skills sharp.

I don't know the source you're quoting, but it's pure spin. The tax fraud and reporting violation were in direct service to the need to hide his foreign payments from Russian interests. You're also forgetting his guilty pleas for failing to register as a foreign agent (Russia again) and witness tampering (which is criminal obstruction of justice!).

This is all directly related to his work for Russia and Russian interests, in exactly the same way that Al Capone's famous tax evasion conviction was the result of his operation of a criminal organization.

I my case - and I could well imagine this to be true for many - it is not really about physics at all. It is more about the philosophical aspect, wanting to know how the universe works at a fundamental level, what exists, what is space, what is time, what does this mean for free will and consciousness. In everyday life relativity, quantum mechanics, and particle physics are as useless as being able to calculate stresses in a beam or understanding turbulence or knowing about metamaterials. From time to time I may actually need some classical mechanics or electrodynamics to understand how something works or to solve a specific problem, but unless it is part of your hobby or job non-fundamental physics beyond some basic knowledge is just as irrelevant as fundamental physics in most peoples life. Fundamental physics and cosmology on the other hand fills in a certain sense the same spot that religion does for other people.
Since you mentioned terminal-based tutorials, here's a terminal-based solution.

Most linux systems should include script [1] and scriptreplay[2], which should suit your needs. Here's a complete example of a recorded/replayed session[3].

On MacOS it should be as easy as `script -r <filename>` to record and `script -p <filename>` to replay. YMMV, but I like it for _small_ use-cases, as it puts simplicity and portability over features.

Probably how the stuff is packaged for consoles where content is continuously streamed to make up for the limited memory on consoles and anemic CPU's so texture maps , world data and game logic are interleaved.

Patching all of that is difficult to it is probably easier to replace the content streams in one go.

Take notes, generally write a lot e.g. by copying paragraphs or, even better, try to summarize the key point of a paragraph or page into a sentence or two. Use markers. Reading aloud as suggested by FroshKiller is perfect. Do crossword puzzles. And don't use regular screens for longer reading (paper is still best, e-ink kind of ok).

Read a lot (and writing!) even if "nothing sticks". It sure will feel frustrating, but don't worry, it will improve again over time "simply" with practice. Don't feel abnormal, all this is quite ordinary as you grow up and more and more "stuff to think about" accumulates. It takes practice to get to a brain-relaxed state again. Mindfulness, meditation etc of course can help a lot too.

With me weeks fly by, but some days, often Monday, seem to last forever! It doesn't make much sense.
The worst thing I've seen recently is amp URLs for reddit threads. It's one bad thing (new reddit UI) wrapped in a worse thing (AMP), and getting back to classic reddit takes a lot of gymnastics. The stupid part is that the amp page is indistinguishable from the (new) reddit page (the AMP page comes complete with the "download our app" popup). So I don't see how it's providing any speed/experience benefit.
Similar - about 18-19hrs before docking. You should be able to watch it live tomorrow morning.

> My concern is about leading the other 19+ kids astray with a confusing example before they're ready for it.

Except that the kids were all agreeing with her. Whether she did made that statement or not, they still believed that made sense.

I agree with you about the solution from mnsc, that was a good way to skip that without confusion.
Like many drugs, modafinil is widely used for purposes for which it was never intended. The Los Angeles Times reported that as many as 90% of those who were prescribed modafinil were using it for off-label purposes, such as staying awake or enhancing mental abilities.
Other studies have found that modafinil doesn’t have the side effects of other stimulants. That is, a person will not be tired or groggy after taking it. Instead, the person will enjoy normal (or even better than normal) brain functions.
A person who takes modafinil will still have to catch up on his or her sleep. The drug increases the ability to stay awake longer; it does not reduce the amount of sleep a person needs. You can read more about this on https://pharmacyrxs.com/product/modafinil-provigil/.
All this being said, modafinil is not a perfect solution or a substitute for sleep. There are some side effects, including those upon mental health. Some volunteers did become agitated, nervous, and dizzy after taking the drug for a period of time, while others became more aggressive.
This means that it might be a good idea to limit the use of modafinil to situations where it is truly needed, such as emergencies or cases of sleep deprivation. Yet it goes without saying that there are many benefits (and potential benefits) from modafinil.
> didn't ignore it - was responding specifically to text/headline of one of the other articles

Why did you move on from the comment most relevant to the topic of the fact check? Fact check disputed evidence of absentee voter fraud, and firs link shows evidence.

I put the first link first to establish a common frame that the fact checkers were wrong, and the second-to-third are more advanced topics.

First link demonstrates the question we should ask: Who deserve the power of determining what is true or not? Does a committee at twitter deserve that power?

> What does "unaccounted for" mean?

That is the crux of the problem with the mail in ballot chain of trust, isn't it?

You wouldn't have to ask this question at a physical voting spot, where this would be irregular and systems are in place to document the chain-of-trust to the degree necessary for voting.
My girlfriend and I play with our old roommates most evenings as of late - we've gotten in the habit of turning on my gaming rig and her PS4 around lunch to suss out any updates. We are lucky to have symmetrical gig internet, but even with an Ethernet cable connected the PS4 download speeds abysmal. Those COD patches really are monstrous.
Right now when a user creates a "project" we spin up a full server for them.

> Any issues with maxing out connections to the DB?

There are by default 100 max_connections. But if you use our libraries there is no problem - all requests get funneled through 1 server (which we will autoscale in the future). You'd be lucky to reach 10 connections. If you connect to the database yourself then it's really up to you how many connections you consume
> The revolution we need is localism.

Agreed. All politics is local after all. The problem is that the economic incentives are pointed in the polar opposite direction. Startups can't get funding if their ambitions are limited to their city, or even within the borders of their country.

As was mentioned in an article I can't locate, a lot of the world's top technical talent is stuck working at well paid jobs, on products that simply don't matter relative to the challenges humanity is facing.

If Twitter wants control over what's published on their site, then they give up their rights (their 'free harbor'-alike protections) to not be held responsible for the content they censor and let through.

Twitter et al. are where modern speech happens. They pushed themselves into this position, and thus upholding the human right to free speech also falls upon them.

So long as Twitter is not shut down, then perhaps some government oversight (to the limit of holding Twitter responsible for what and who they censor) is appropriate.

Free speech, in this case, trumps my intense dislike of our current administration.
New Pixels (I think 3, but it may only be 4) have an inference chip of some form. All of this is done on-device. They ported this to older devices, but it's not as fast (but still offline).

The assistant is one place (probably only place) where Google has a better privacy story than most (including Apple). Notwithstanding the phone offline capabilities, you can tell the home devices (which use online transcription) "that was not for you" and they will delete what they heard.

Space exploration and exploitation is awesome, but shouldn't the first items on the "do more as species" todo list be about taking care of earth?
What are the reasons the creator could not just re-upload the video as a new video?

I don't use Youtube as a creator, so I can only guess.

Links to it from outside of Youtube? 'Millions of views' type of stuff? Ad revenue? Getting their account perma-banned?
I'm not sure where you're getting the "factually incorrect" claim; "unsubstantiated" is the actual terminology Twitter used:

"Trump makes unsubstantiated claim that mail-in ballots will lead to voter fraud"
Agreed, this is a real problem. I recently did a test. I have about a year of rails experience but it was so long ago that I forgot most things and had to look them up. I also wrote quite a bit of node/express but it was in the node 0.10 days so I had a lot of catch-up to do.

I started a new app and I got a basic Users and Sessions model with endpoints running (I like this test because dealing with passwords and API tokens requires writing some code instead of generating it all, but also leverages libraries).

These numbers aren't useful by themselves since you don't know the details of the work I did, but they may be useful side by side:

Express/TypeScript: Took me about 24 to 30 hours to get it all implemented. I started with no ORM (node-postgres) then tried out Knex, then settled on Slonik.js. Because of that I had to re-write some stuff a few times. However, in a bare-bones "framework" this is part of the penalty.

Rails: Took about 10 hours (mostly reading documentation and Michael Hartl's book).

I think I prefer the Node approach simply because I know exactly what is going on under that hood. That said however, if I were a second developer coming into the code base I'd prefer the Rails approach because I'd have to learn "the framework" anyway and a widespread standardized one like Rails would be preferable to learn IMHO.

In conclusion: My numbers are highly individualized and don't tell the whole story of course. In related news, I actually threw both of them away and went back to Elixir/Phoenix, my third love. I'm quite happy there at the moment, and I don't anticipate moving again.
I didn't wade through that entire thread, but the most recent post has a specific set of circumstances:

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/constant-kernel-panics-...

> After waking from sleep and running a process using hardware accelerated video decoding / encoding, the UI will freeze for a couple of seconds, then starts working again, then freezes again, and so on. The mouse can still be moved but the UI is non-responsive. Eventually, after waiting for long enough, a kernel panic occurs and the machine reboots.

How to reproduce:

1. Use any Navi10 or Navi14 graphics card inside a Mac Pro 2019, eGPU case or use a MacBook Pro 16.

2. Open Video Proc or any other app utilizing hardware video acceleration (e.g. Safari playing Youtube, exporting with FCPX / iMovie).

3. Run the video acceleration test in Video Proc, start playing a H.264 / H.265 video in Safari or export a H.264 / H.265 file from FCPX / iMovie.

4. Put the machine to sleep.

5. Wake it again and re-test video acceleration.

6. If machine doesn't freeze, repeat the cycle from step 4.

7. Repeat this until the UI starts freezing / video acceleration stops working.

8. Eventually the machine will kernel panic after several minutes.

You have accused me of misinterpreting your intent elsewhere, but really I don't know how you expect me to interpret this that would cast you in a more positive light. You're saying you would do unethical things, so I don't think I'm off-base to say you might be unethical.

I kept thinking this when the 'cybertruck' was unveiled. Suddenly everyone around me was explaining in detail why this truck was going to be a complete fiasco and a danger to everyone else on the road. I'll happily acknowledge that Musk is off his rocker, but can people really think that he doesn't know how to make a car?

( I'll admit a soft spot for the thing after someone pointed out it looks like what happens when you let back end engineers design the front end )
Typically that percent chance doesn't actually consider all the launch criteria as crazy as that sounds.

It misses the upper level winds, and for the human launch I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out that it is missing some weather criteria in the abort recovery zone as well.
Ah, RationalWiki. At least it makes Wikipedia look consistently fair and unbiased, I suppose. (Two thirds of that page read to me like "and this is why Hanson should be unpersoned")
I was naively thinking they had that in their grant agreements. As a computer scientist I know that people end up on the paper that didn't write it. But I haven't had the case where people didn't know they were on it.

Thanks for the insight!
The Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) Cheat-Sheet
This post is intended as a “technical two-pager” to summarize a security vulnerability called Regex-based Denial of Service (AKA Regex DoS, ReDoS). There are a variety of write-ups about ReDoS, but I’m not aware of a good one-stop-shop with a higher-level treatment of all aspects of the subject. I have included links at the end to more detailed treatments.
Exactly. It's a painful reality to accept for those who do not know it's an accepted practice.
Oh totally. You have to view consulting like running a business and be constantly looking for new clients, there is no job security at all. But if you are decent with marketing and selective with your clients it can be super fun and rewarding.

It's also one of the least risky paths to starting a business if that's your thing. I ended up building a consulting agency out of it (https://startopsgroup.com) so it has definitely served me well.
I had to search. Yeah, Boeing's look like a real space suit.

In normal circumstances, the present and the past are always opposite speeds for me.

If I've got nothing going on, the present takes forever, I'm bored. But once a prolonged boredom is in the past, it feels like it was fast -- there's not much to remember.

If I'm super busy, the present goes by super quick. I never get bored and always have stuff to do. But if I look back at a prolonged period of busy time, it feels like it took a long time -- I have lots of stuff to remember.
> Doubtful. Taxes ain’t going away.

Which part is doubtful?

I didn’t suggest that taxes would go away.

I suggested that tax receipts (the amount received by government) will decrease due to reduced economic activity during the pandemic. This is a fact (it has already happened).

This would give the tech companies an opportunity to solve some governmental budget shortfalls by relieving some of the burden in exchange for some access rights.

Just a random note, Elements did destroy the Envato marketplaces for authors. I was an author on CodeCanyon (until yesterday), sold an analytics script[0] and earned $65k+ over 7 years now, but since they released Elements they drive all their traffic away from the marketplaces, they no longer care about authors. Yesterday I actually deleted my product from CodeCanyon, it was pretty sad to delete an 8 year old item with 1500+ happy customers and 5 stars rating, but the way they treat authors should not be encouraged.

Just one of many examples of how the authors are no longer respected on the marketplace: Imagine that you launch a paid marketing campaign for your product, you drive traffic to Envato's website on your product page and the first thing the customer sees is a prominent banner promotiong Elements where they get unlimited everything for $15/mo, when your product alone costs $99 (even though your product is not even on Elements).

I disagree. There's no reason to leak things to everyone on the planet, even if what's leaked isn't the most-damaging-to -leak-thing possible. As an example, it annoys me that the Texas Instruments site isn't encrypted, leaking my interest in parts to anybody listening.

"Fact" Checking.
In the last 15+ years we have heard this same story, "X platform wouldn't exist without Y user". This has never turned out to be true for any large scale social media platform. For the platforms that have failed, it was always a better platform that took their place, not one single user causing a mass migration.

Look at the_donald, which had a mass migration off of Reddit, and everyone said Reddit was going to shutdown without their ad revenue. Still waiting...
I could see partnering with independent journalist corps to investigate flagged tweets. Guessing They'd only do it for verified accounts. They'd have control over the corp quality and bias, so could offer a reasonably neutral fact checking service if they choose to.

Interesting to see public information warefare playing out in real time.
