In my experience, SAFe is an improvement over what has gone before. It provides a clear path for intake of new work, instead of having stuff dumped on you that suddenly has to be completed yesterday. It provides a clear method of identifying inter-team and intra-team dependencies, and then you can apply methods to address or at least monitor those issues while work proceeds. In PI planning sessions, I learned so much more about what all is going on in the other teams and elsewhere around the company, and that helped me do a better job for my part of the puzzle.

What I’ve seen is that the business types don’t like it. Marketing doesn’t like it. The bean counters don’t like it. Upper management doesn’t like it. It doesn’t fit into their neat quarterly buckets. They don’t like that PI planning takes so much time from so many people, despite the fact that history has proven over thousands of years that just leaping into things without a planning process is the surest path to disaster. They don’t like the fact that the more often PI planning is done, the more effective it is — because the more time spent between PI planning sessions is more time for things to go off the rails in ways that could be addressed in a PI planning session.

Accents and staple foods are terrible examples.

We know that the sound of the human voice is determined by the shape of the air passageway, including teeth and nose. We know that these shapes vary around the world.

We know that lactose tolerance varies by population, and that this would influence the degree to which milk is used as a staple food.

Still, the claim of "open source" or "libre" or "free software" doesn't hold water effectively if there is nobody to verify it (lawyers are probably needed, too). License proliferation is a separate issue.

BTW, the OSI people on their mailing list weren't convinced that the license is conformant (during the grace period) in 2008, 2009, or 2013. Hypothetically there could have been a change of heart since, but I can't know either way without much more research.

My main point is that there is a lack of transparency in the linked blog post about the license by ECC (Zooko?).

EDIT: If someone wants to choose this (or any other) license, it is important for them to know if it is legally sound, how compatible it is with other licenses/project, and possibly also what are the prospects for the license's future adoption in the "market". Approval by FSF or OSI gives some assurance with all of those. Without that everyone involved with software licensed under the license will just lose time, unless hypothetically TGPPL makes it really big, big enough for everyone to switch from FSF and OSI approved licenses to TGPPL.
> the market is working exactly as intended

I'm not saying that's what you're saying, but a lot of people tend to treat the market as intrinsically morally correct. As in, if something is the outcome of the market working correctly, then that thing is the "correct" outcome.

So, if billionaires appear as a result of the market doing its thing, then billionaries are morally entitled to their money.

I'm not sure I buy that argument.
Anecdotally, Irish sausages are the world's best hangover cure (pig fat). Spent a year in Galway in college. The first time I tried an Irish sausage, it made my stomach turn. Tried them again with a hangover and it was like angels were singing.
The use of "liberal" in that last sentence has a different meaning. In that instance it means "to take liberties with regards to...". I was saying that I think you're "taking the liberty" of infusing your own ideas with what the actual reality of the situation is. Not that your ideas were liberal as in liberal/conservative.

That's the one that came to mind - I am sure there are others. You appeared to be claiming it was technically impossible and I found a good example. You keep asserting that you know what is good for me or other consumers with no evidence and this is a pattern I see repeated in this and other threads. Why? What's it to you that I want some control over my device?

Edit0: I've often found much better (repairable, long lasting) products for myself by looking in the enterprise/ fleet catalog. My oft-mentioned HP Elite X360 is another example of a device targeted to the corporate market and as a result, enables easy replacement of the SSD and battery.
Glad you brought up services like these, I've been using DeleteMe (https://joindeleteme.com/index.php) for a while, and their prices are extremely reasonable (~$100 per year).

According to the comparison page from SoftMaker[0], Spell-checking is a feature reserved for the paid version.

I'm not against reserving features for a paid version, but spell-checking? The thing that is implemented in all modern browsers and even basic editors like notepad++? The bare-bones markdown editor I use[1] has spell checking. Not shipping a major word processor of any sort without spell checking in 2020 makes me immediately cross it off my list.

The elements of this monoid kind of look like type signatures for Forth words.

I can't say whether more short-term memory would make us smarter, but I can say that when I had a short-term memory problem, I could do everything except program.

This dependence on short-term memory is why I find Rust's borrow checker intolerable during exploratory programming. Whatever coding bugs it prevents have to be strongly outnumbered by design errors it causes by stealing attention from the most critical activity at that time.

The borrow checker would deliver 100% of its value if it limited its enforcement to release builds, and just reported numbers otherwise.

I've taken the approach of only reading the 3-star reviews.

I was thinking about Clonk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonk
Nim has a python-ish feel, though it's definitely not python. The syntax is similar, the semantics are different -- but are very sane. It's much less opinionated than Python or Go, about as fun to write as Python, about as easy to deploy as Go (simple small native executables without dependencies), and about as fast to run and FFI as C++ (if you use the native backends, but it also has JS backend)

These are irrelevant digressions to the post that I was responding. The parent comment appeared to be implying it was technically impossible and that does not seem to be true. Your ad hominem and irrelevant attack on Samsung is weird: 1) you don't know the support cycle of this commercial device, and 2) often options such as LineageOS become available for such devices.
Yeah along these lines one I’ve noticed a lot lately is “this thing doesn’t fit like it used to” or “something has changed since March” where it is 90% 5 star like you said but the recent or most helpful reviews show something has changed, that can be useful.

As a JS developer (coming from a C background) I just couldn’t stomach python. For whatever reason, it always rubbed me off the wrong way. Idk if it’s the indentation (I like the ;), the toy-ishness of the language (I don’t feel like I’m actually programming)... meh, but I’m kinda interested in ML and improving my A&DS skills and Python sounds like a well designed language.

Fun fact: JS is a pass by value language... except when it comes to arrays and objects, it then becomes pass by ref. Go figure.
> As things currently stand, one would be in the right to go into a "cashless" store, consume an item that was for sale, say you forgot your credit card, and offer to settle up in cash.

First you would have to successfully argue that there is a debt. The store might argue that you stole the item you consumed.

It all depends on how you fit what happens in a store to the offer/acceptable view of contracts.

Is it:

1. by putting the item on the shelf with a price tag, the store is making an offer to sell it at that price, and

2. by picking it up you have accepted the offer, forming a contract and now you owe the store for the item?

Or is it:

1. when you bring the item to the cashier you are making an offer to buy the item at the marked price, and

2. when the cashier rings you up the store accepts your offer?

Even if putting an item on a shelf with a price tag is an offer, rather than an invitation to treat, I believe I've seen at least one case that said that picking up the item isn't enough to accept--the offer is accepted and the contract formed when you actually pay. So even then consuming the item before paying would be theft.

> A thinner device is likely lighter as well, which people do want

I want think and light devices - but not at the cost of everything else. A replaceable battery is important - realistically, how much thinner and lighter does a fixed battery make it?

I fully agree that some manufacturers (cough Apple) are obsessed with thinness, but I strongly believe the main driver behind fixed batteries is planned obsolescence.
I get your point, but this sounds like you didn't read the post you're replying to.

At least the way I read their post, snori74 isn't presenting some absolute position of authority, but rather is describing their experience from running the course (and I assume working as a sysadmin) as to what is effective for the students.

Putting forward what works best for most students doesn't exclude other ways of consuming the content. A student motivated to consume the content more quickly can easily discover the github themselves, or ask the question on reddit.

Your preference for consuming the content all-at-once is a valid one, however it's right for the content creator to set up the course in a way that maximises the outcomes for student - especially when there is an easy fallback to the all-at-once model.

I'll also add that having a 'class' of students doing the course with you is something that a lot of people would appreciate, as they can discuss the challenges and successes they see with people experiencing the same things at the same time.

Carmack spends more time in algorithmic and less in churning code.

I personally spend a lot of time reviewing code and looking for bugs, and I wouldn’t be able to live without a feature to click through function definition.
When I use Xcode to review objective C I feel like have super powers due to their caller hierarchy feature (which lets you quickly go through any of the callers up the stack). When I review other code with other IDE I feel disabled. Unfortunately I spent very little time using Xcode in my career.
How many GUIs are keyboard driven though? Vim isn't CLI, but it's significantly more pleasant to use than a GUI for me.

I agree that the right to repair needn't overlap with user replacable batteries but it seems a false choice that we have to make between thin and replacable batteries.
In the time of the Walkman there were some seriously compact devices and I realise that expectations have moved on, but the most compact Walkman designs were all thinner than the average without resorting to sealed units. I'm sure there is some structural impact from removable parts but if they were end loaded (as has been done with lots of compact consumer electronics) they could still be pretty sturdy and deliver a better experience for users tired of their devices' poor performance from something like 8 months to a year after purchase.
Travelling through a wormhole without dying may actually be possible
The secrets were my favorite part, it made it me feel like a kid again. There are parts of the game that you'll never see if you don't explore off the easy path. I kind of wish they told you ahead of time that those areas exist, though, even if they don't tell you how to get to them. I'm so accustomed to modern games having one path from start to finish, that I didn't bother exploring until I happened to read a comment talking about the secret areas. I probably doubled my amount of play time after I started exploring, and trying to access all the optional areas. Unfortunately, some areas seem to only be reachable if you are lucky enough to get certain wands, or the procedurally generated terrain is in a favorable layout.
From the headline I thought it was related to a video I saw years ago for a television remote control from a French (I think) hardware engineer. It was only a prototype but it replaced the batteries with a piezoelectric mechanism that generated enough of a charge from physically depressing the button to send the infrared signal. Probably not enough power there to reliably send a bluetooth signal though.

Micro is usually in the 6-12 micrograms zone, it's so low thats it's barely noticeable at all, hence "micro".

The idea is to gain the positive effects of it without it making you high.

Around 10-20 is when people start noticing effects, being a small dose.

50, being half a dose, can feel very "muddy", as in, its kind of "half assed". You start to feel more high, but not as visual and enjoyable.

Normal dose would be the typical 100.

Although people's experiences of different dosages vary a lot. For some the sweetspot might be 70-100, for others it's 200-250.

Based on your description, it sounds like around half a dose, if you just sometimes get visual effects.

> For one, you can simply eat the cows

It could be more resource intensive to get a new cow each time rather than milk the same cow over and over for a longer period of time.
Milk is vastly more efficient than directly eating cows. It’s the same reason eggs are cheaper than eating chickens, compounded by an even longer lifespan.
I definitely don't buy it either.

The market has nothing to do with morality. It's simply a question of efficiency: are people as a whole better off, utility wise? But as long as everyone is making voluntary, non-coerced trades (labor for $, $ for products), then by definition they are better off. There's no moral aspect to it, just economic efficiency/"progress".

But that doesn't mean you get to keep everything you make. The market is a tool, not an end. If you kept everything, there'd be no taxation, no government, no education, nothing else, and it would be a moral disaster. The moral element comes into play with taxation: because you (as a billionaire) benefit extraordinarily from the country's systems put into place -- contract enforcement, courts, roads, education of your workers, everything -- you are morally obligated to pay your "fair share" of that back.

The only people who claim people are entitled to 100% of the money they make are a subset of libertarians/anarchists. It's not a very popular opinion, since it makes society pretty much unworkable.
Your mindset, which includes conscious and unconscious expectations and goals, how you're feeling around the time of the experience (depressed? anxious? indifferent? curious? hesitant?), how you feel about the people around you, any mental issues you may have, and how you approach the experience.

To maximize the chance of having a productive experience you'll want to make sure each of those elements is as helpful to your goals as possible.

What the appropriate set is will also depend on your setting, which includes not just the physical environment, but also what's happening there, and the people around you and their own mindsets and attitudes towards what you're going through, their ability to facilitate the experience, etc.

For example, while generally one is discouraged for partaking in psychedelics if one suffers from mental illness, in the context of psychedelic therapy with a trained therapist you like, trust, and respect, that could work for certain conditions.

But if you do have a mental illness please consult a trained, professional therapist before making a decision on this matter.
Or just in general. Peoples’ “gut feelings” about babies have often historically been pretty bizarre.

Recent example, of a quack medical treatment involving giving babies alcohol:

> Prior to alcohol's removal from the recipe, Woodward's maximum recommended dose of gripe water contained an alcohol content equivalent to five tots of whiskey for an 80kg adult. It was only in 1992 that Britain mandated that alcohol be removed from Gripe water, and in 1993 the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ordered an automatic detention of all shipments of Woodward's Gripe Water into the U.S.

Giving babies alcohol, in various forms and often in quite large amounts, was part of the ‘conventional wisdom’ for a long time (though never really endorsed by medical science). If peoples’ guts were so wrong then, I wouldn’t trust them now.
I used the scare quotes for a reason- Belarus definitely isn't the only dictatorship in Europe, but its a common enough nickname for it that you really should be surprised if a country that's nicknamed the "last" dictatorships is authoritarian.

Also, you could probably argue that Russia is Asian, or that turkey is European, its not like there's a clear historical or geographic border, so there's some flexibility in how many dictatorships or authoritarian leaning countries you include

I'm colour-blind; I've never known exactly what type (for sure red/green).

I can tell the difference between original/filtered at that link for both protanopia and deutanopia, though they are close. Perhaps that means I have both/a mixture. (They're described there as being anomalous red vs. green cones, so it seems reasonable that I could have anomalous both.)

When it comes to 'colour-blind mode' settings I set my mild annoyance (could you not just pick a friendly default? It's not like I can't see any reds (for example) at all) aside and just pick whichever type is most visually pleasing or easily distinguishable.
