In what reference frame? It's not obvious to me how this works in a space drive. How does it "know" how much speed it gets per unit energy?

I guess if it's a sort of Dean drive that swims through the gravitational field of the visible universe, then that's the reference frame. It's still weird!
Reminds me of the mentality strong players in MOBAs advocate for. You're playing on a team with four other strangers, so it can be easy to feel hopeless and give up when they make mistakes. But the most optimal thing to do is to not focus on their mistakes, but focus on how you can correct your own mistakes: how you can beat your lane opponent, how you can anticipate a jungle gank, how you can translate a won lane into a won game, how you can communicate your intent effectively with pings to prevent that failed dive next time, how you can foster a positive mentality among your teammates and what you can do to help them win their lanes.

You get better by revisiting the decisions you made, think about how you could do better next time, and move on to the next challenge. When you develop learned helplessness, you stop getting better and can actually become worse.

The dashboard abbreviates "minutes" with "ms", but to me that reads "milliseconds". I think it should probably use "min".
Just kicked the tires on Optimizely for a site with less than a million MAU. They wanted $50K upfront for one year. No monthly or quarterly billing available. Went with Google Optimize instead, works fine for free. In the face of that, very surprised Optimizely doesn't do month to month to get folks started.
> You have RISC-V chipping away the bottom, low end embedded category...

Yes. For relatively simple in-order cores, the RV32 instruction set is far simpler to implement than ARM, or even MIPS, and should be able to provide better performance.

If the existing SW dev toolchain is sufficient for your needs right now, I think RISC-V can be a great choice for small embedded SoCs.
They would be pretty terrible job arrangements. Although I'd point out that a non-trivial number of people have 3 or 4 hours of commuting a day. Now, you can argue that this is optional and perhaps it is to some degree. Nonetheless a lot of people spend work-related time that's not on the clock.
I would bet the press is talking about different people than the ones you are watching.

Stoicism: Worry exclusively about the things you can control. The only things you can control are your own intentions. The behavior of others, the results of other's actions, and even the results of your own actions are all outside your control, and it is therefor unproductive to worry about them.
As _underfl0w_ said, you're pretty much describing Qubes. Using it can be eye opening--nothing works together unless you let it, which is a good way to get a feel for your attack surface / unknown dependencies.

Qubes uses VM's. Subgraph OS is another option. It tries to achieve the same thing with containers, but their latest release is pretty old--not sure how alive that project is.
Nice. I've used Route53 for my dynamic DNS for years, and it worked well. I just had a set of shell scripts that I wrote to update it. Nothing this fancy.

I did recently move my DNS to Azure because I get Azure credits with my MSDN subscription. I do need to get around to building something for Azure.

One should note that propellantless propulsion systems exist. They are called lasers. It is just that the thrust to weight ratio of such an engine is very low.

A quick google search does not bring back any designs or research papers of such a system, as the results are swamped by the idea of using ground based lasers to push spacecraft instead of the craft itself containing the laser.

As someone not too familiar with the ins and outs of acquisitions or IPOs... is it unusual to get acquired after laying off a big chunk of your staff? Is that an indicator that they probably accepted a lower valuation than they would have before that layoff?

There are many ways in which something might be judged and therefore many ways in which something might be called 'better.' I am not saying the NYTimes is better than CNN in terms of what biases they have, what stories they choose to cover or what embellishments they add. I am not saying they have better fact checking. I am essentially saying CNN's articles are written for a less literate audience and they have lazy editors who let poor writing slide. I am not taking about their fact checking or factual accuracy.
At first I had the exact same reaction as the author. React hooks seem obscure, and you can't understand what happens just by mimicking what you see.

Then I read the docs on React hooks and everything became clear.

Hooks are a new way to think in React, don't try to resist and learn it. Also RTFM. The React official doc is amazingly clear and easy to read.

I think they should get paid for this time too.

But... I think that the general idea that the court system upholds is that the employee is free to get a different job if they don't like the unpaid portion of their work. And if it is hard to get new employees to agree to unpaid work, then the employer will either start paying or they will increase the wages to make up for it.
I would be careful of using semi-democracy as a word. Democracy is power by the people, and the Iranian theocracy is ultimately not a democracy. There are too many caveats, too many powers under the authority of religious unelected people to call it a democracy. It’s a theocracy through and through.

> This has nothing to with empathy, you can't be on Github and discriminate PR submitters because they are Israeli. Pretty sure it violates github TOS.

That is a hard decision.

If the maintainer denies this PR for being from Israel, you're pretty sure it violates ToS, which in the worst case could result in their account being suspended.

If the maintainer knowingly or unknowingly accepts a PR from Israel, the very real worst case is that they could be executed.

I'm not sure which decision I'd make if I were in their shoes. I see your point now.
Agreed, with a caveat: _Deep Work_ is a great book that could've been a blog post, and the final summary wrap-up chapter _is that blog post_. If you're pressed for time you can just read the last chapter in the book.
They sort of hang themselves with this -- gitlab runners will occasionally hang and just run for the full 1 hour max, making it very easy to max out your hours. Presumably they don't fix this so people max out their hours and have to buy more, but it also hurts the bottom line of their free tier. I see this happen at least 2x a month on our project, and it doesn't seem to correspond with any particular docker image.

If you are the facility manager for a location in the north pole, you wouldn't get paid for travel time to your place of employment.

Bear in mind this is a devil's advocate argument - I think they likely should be paid.

But there are plenty of places where pay is weird - airline flight attendants for example are paid door close to door open - boarding, offloading, waiting in the airport security lines, waiting at the airport for delayed flights, are all mostly unpaid.

The thinking being is that their substantially higher per hour pay makes up for it and it - and I'm sure Apple will make a similar argument.

I would bet airport workers - or the people working the dunkin donuts in the food court - aren't paid for the time it takes to get through TSA either.

Couldn't agree more. Everyone of us, including myself, has something to hide. Some of the more extreme motivations behind the attempts to push for more control on communications simply don't stand: "it could be used for child porn" is no different to "it could be used for drugs trading" applied to normal cellphone communications. Just let communications protocols alone, then divert more funding to intelligence technologies and training rather than giving police military weapons.

> Long live P2P. The more protocols in active development the better.

Agreed, though it would be nice if nodes could interoperate with different protocols. In the old days the wonderful Napster OSS compatible client Lopster was rewritten to be compatible with pretty much all known p2p protocols back then, but before it was ready BitTorrent came and became the standard, so it's currently stagnating/dead. http://lopster.sourceforge.net/
I'm not buying the idea that Trump is just an unknown. He has talked with Putin multiple times without aides, he has many business ties with Russia. The bi-partisan senate report pretty much proves that this isn't just chance.

Russia isn't in a position of power. Any amount of generated chaos is a positive - the proxy war in the middle east is irrelevant to Europe - Putin would make that trade any day of the week.

Russia isn't directly supporting only Trump - it's likely they are supporting left wing candidates as well. It isn't for "policy" it's for division and sowing chaos. The US is its own worst enemy right now - and that limits it internationally.

I count 18 sentences of fluff/framing before they say who is acquiring them. Talk about burying the lede!

18 seems like an outlier, but for press releases I’ve read in the “we’ve been acquired” category, I’d guess that the median is > 10. Does anyone have first-hand knowledge about why these statements are released in this teasing way?
Well, maybe, maybe not, but once you're on the job site, you're entitled to be paid for whatever the employer decides to do with you, like security screenings.
Preach it, brother. One of the biggest reasons I'm anti-software-union: every place where software engineers fervently advocate for unions they fervently advocate to keep foreigners out.
A classical and a mythological education are both important and missing today. I wrote recently:

> A mythological education is distinct from the common school subjects. It builds in the mind intuition for second-order effects, for the first lesson a child learns from one hundred stories is that every thing you do will have unintended consequences, something years of schoolwork fails to teach. Myths give us shared art and common culture—a set of characters with which we can play in and enjoy together. In any culture rich with myths, their vocabulary is enlarged far beyond words, to allegories and metaphors. The quality of thought follows.

(To this end I've been writing a book of fables, mostly for my children, but serializing them by newsletter right now, which is turning out more popular than I expected.)
> If there were a vibrant industrial or creative community in North Korea to interact with, I’d see the light in this argument. But there isn’t.

This is entirely false. For example, North Korea has, believe it or not, a booming software development outsourcing industry (mostly apps I think). Their labor is dirt cheap and they're apparently not half bad at what they do.

I believe the same goes for any other type of labor: If you're willing to violate trade sanctions, you can get anything from there for a penny.
Google Optimize & VWO hurt them. Free, or low price, low friction won at scale with smaller teams running 1-2 experiments or low level personalization.

This is the biggest frustration that many people have with criticism of SCOTUS...they want them to rule one way or another when congress could simply write new laws to be more clear (ok, it's not simple but it is the correct way).

Right vs. Left...conservative vs. liberal...doesn't matter if the laws were written correctly to begin with.
We have a hard time talking to each other these days (eg, Republicans vs Democrats in US).

So I also feel that education, specifically a liberal arts foundation, could broaden people’s minds so that we’re not just shouting at each other, but can actually converse as somewhat rational beings.

To add insult, a superficial search for Iran sanctions show that Israel is pushing hard for US sanctions on Iran [0][1]

So even if Israel hasn't sanctioned Iran, they sure seem to want the US as a proxy sanctionner

Fallacy of the excluded middle. There's other alternatives to a) saying it's outright false and b) saying it's outright true. I'm saying it shouldn't be labeled "misinformation" without extensive evidence to back it up, just as you're saying it shouldn't be labeled "truth" without the same level of evidence.

Instead, it's actually possible that we could discuss the theory as if it might be true, or false, until there's sufficient evidence to rule out one or the other. It's Pelic4n's refusal to do this that I take issue with.

It's impossible to be "good" (or bad, nice, etc.) objectively, because objectivity would require everyone to agree on that. "X is good" is not a proposition in logic, so it can't be confirmed or negated.

However, you can choose a more objective formulation of what you want to achieve. One way is to express it in relation to what others do, e.g. "I won a marathon" - this is a proposition and an objective fact.
Yes they should be expected to pay for that, it's your time that you can't use for whatever you want because now you have to spend it getting to work. I think it would have to be limited to something reasonable, but yes, unequivocally your employer should be on the hook for that. I believe I should be paid for the imposition on my time.

I also think that forcing hourly people to take a 30 minute unpaid lunch needs to be fixed, I absolutely hated the one job I've had where this was enforced. I would have much rather just worked a straight 8 hours so I wasn't robbed of 30 minutes of my life every day.

Both of these are hard to fix and I don't know how to implement it, but they definitely should be.
At a tangent to your (marvelous) response:

> But what about domestic terrorism, or important exceptions? No problem! Get a warrant.

I've heard about accounts of police investigations being aided with access to the mass surveillance data (through the FBI, I believe). It never goes to a FISA court, and the police use the information to develop a pretext for a warrant.

So even with a warrant, the power may still be unchecked. I believe it reasonable to conclude that conducting mass surveillance can't reliably done without abridging constitutional rights. I guess that leads us back to the unresolved conversation from early in this century about the trade-offs between liberty, privacy, and security.

Not the OP, but I'm in therapy personally, and just as a personal example, didn't realize that some current reactions and feelings were colored by past experiences.

> Either you have agency or you don't.

Or maybe it's on a scale, where you can do various things to protect yourself, but those require time and energy which are not unlimited.

Things such as no TV -- I would also say no social networks on a phone, ever! -- are obviously good. It is easy to reduce a distraction of something if you can eliminate it from your life completely, without any significant cost. It's like, when you want to get rid of alcoholism, it is easier to avoid pubs completely, rather than trying to regulate how much you consume.

Problem is when you cannot avoid some situations completely. Turning off the internet, forever, would have a negative impact on many people's jobs. And there is a lot of distraction even on Stack Exchange -- if I am looking at an answer of a technical question, why is it also necessary to be notified about hot questions about movies, video games, politics, etc.? (On my home computer, I could install a blocker, but that already requires some skills that many people don't have. On my employer's computer, I am not even allowed to install browser plugins, for security reasons.)

It is an arms race. As people learn to turn off some forms of distraction, experts keep inventing more intrusive ones.

Sure, thanks, but remember we're adults here, and pretty well educated ones at that, so, the need for caution and discernment can be presumed to be understood by readers on this site :)

For what it's worth, plenty of books have been written about these concepts over several decades; some authors include Gabor Maté, Bruce Lipton, Stanislav and Christina Grof, Peter Levine and Iain McGilchrist, all of whom have advanced academic credentials in psychiatry or biomedical science.

So, yeah, there's no "generalizing from the experiences of one person to all psychological conditions"; there's sharing one anecdote as an example of what many experts have known for years (even if those experts' research findings aren't used much in formulating the DSM or applied by your average neighborhood psychiatrist, for reasons that are a whole other discussion!).
Two of the most interesting aspects of rolling funds: they're publicly marketable under 506(c), and they remain open to new investors. There's no funding window or offering period, so existing LPs can pause, increase, or decrease their capital contribution from quarter to quarter. It also looks like the platform works handles a lot of the "paperwork" to operate a fund, so fund managers can primarily focus on fundraising and investing.
Extreme Ownership makes (more) sense in a military context where the price for failure is much higher than in a civilian situation.

Ownership as a word has been hijacked by self-help marketers to goad people into providing more labor than they are paid for. True ownership means having a meaningful stake in the success or failure of the company. If you are not on the hook for more than having to find a new job on failure and will not get anything more than a mild pay raise or promotion (if even that) on success, then you do not "own" a process no matter what any internal document says. Acting as though you do just means that you are giving away value for free.
A few years ago, we were a monthly customer of Optimizely for a few hundred dollars a month. Reasonable for a startup.

Then they went to the annual cost of $30K+ upfront and ended all monthly options. They had to move to high cost, high touch to compete with the free/cheap offerings to stay in business. This acquisition suggests that didn't work.

We ended up building randomization, remote config, and logging ourselves, and did the analysis with our existing stuff.
