I think he chose some really bad examples. They don't have personal moats, they have personal carrier battle groups. And combining ikigai with the moat analogy was also IMHO a red herring. One has little to do with the other.

As a consultant my personal moat is a blend of my experience and current relevant knowledge. My 20 years in IT combined with my and MBA & my deep knowledge of cloud architectures is my moat. Previously it was my 15 years experience and my deep knowledge in automation.

What makes my moat changes over time, and if I stop learning new things my moat will vanish.

>I'm kind of the opinion that there is no such thing as optimizing your time, only the way you distribute your energy and focus.

This. People constantly say they only have 24 hours, I felt I have ample of time. But my energy doesn't replenish as quickly. Human are not machine, you have to optimise your energy usage. Try to play a game of Go for hours and you have absolutely zero energy left for the rest of the day to think about anything. May be their are super human that can do that. I certainly cant.

My guess is that it is similar to that some people are very good at long distance running. While I prefer to sprint, walk, run, and sprint again. Where walk = resting.
I don't think that approach would be as fast. The ICBM program created the whole airospace industry within a few years through massive investment directed by a military industrial complex scared by the soviet union.

If you give so much money to a single company they squander it like during the dot com bubble. If you disperse it over many companies a chaos ensures as everybody struggles to find product market fit.
I keep the domain match rule as "Starts from" in the global setting not because of this (and I realized it was a good choice more now) but because BitWarden automatically sends basic auth if there is only one match, meaning you never get any prompt to begin with, which is handy but having the default "Base domain" can make the match broader and asks me for basic auth and since an extension can't fill that space probably due to browser extension API, I have to copy / paste which is very tedious.
Yeah, Android Java has turned into Google's own version of J++.

Worse is that Kotlin fanboys don't get it, that without access to modern Java their Java FFI is worthless, as all Java 8+ libraries on Maven Central will slowly become useless on Android no matter what.

Additionally the language cannot expose JVM capabilities, unless they had even another backend.

So it will be stuff like value types, JNI replacement, proper generics, customized JIT and SIMD on the JVM, and plain old Java 8 on ART.
They don’t scapegoat the compliance officer.... there is more of an art to avoiding liability than that.

The mere presence of a compliance officer checks the box.

A compliance officer sounding an actual alarm can get them fired.
Well, it's not that the number is prime. There are many numbers which don't back up at the same time every day that aren't prime, like 25hrs or 22hrs. Numbers which are more complex fractions of a full day will take longer to repeat.

Depending on a more exact statement of the goal, the best constant interval to avoid repeating parts of the day on nearby dates would be to multiply a day's length by the golden ratio; this would be about every 38.833 hours.

Since the golden ratio is irrational, you'll technically never repeat the same time. But if I remember correctly, it's the best number to space out the times uniformly throughout the day and also distantly between nearby days.
Absolutely.

We're rapidly headed toward a world in which not only is volume controlled by software, but where apps and even websites will be able to tell whether your audio is muted. Imagine what Youtube would be like if not only are videos delayed by ads, but the ads themselves refuse to play if they're muted.

Madness.

At one time I was involved with 4 major programs of work and saw my whole week disappear in a patchwork of weekly scheduled meetings.

My solution was to get really pushy with meeting organisers to (a) cut the default time from an hour to 30 minutes; (b) schedule them back-to-back (if not, I'd decline and ask them to be rescheduled); (c) merge similar meetings; (d) tell each program manager I'd attend max 1 weekly meeting and one monthly steering committee, and everything else would be async; (e) drop off any call that didn't have a clear agenda and deliverables.

Before doing this, I told each of the programs' execs and dev leads what I was doing, making it clear it was the only way I could balance my roles as team lead, workstream lead and individual contributor.

The other thing is to drop any feeling of guilt for dropping off calls that aren't productive.

You have lots of small sentences, and some of them lack the words to make it a complete one.

For example, instead of starting a sentence with "Smart guy, ...", most people would write something like "He's a smart guy". Or instead of "An interesting conversation", people would write "We had many interesting conversations" or something along those lines.

As far as I can tell from glancing through Gaius.jl is no longer maintained and both it and Tullio still consistently lose out to MKL across a wide range of matrix sizes and usually lose out to OpenBLAS on larger matrices. Moreover most victories for Tullio seem to be very machine dependent with different users reporting OpenBLAS still beating Tullio even on smaller matrix sizes.

so many things, so much, so easy

Follow the money, as always. It's a bit hard to find any solid policy suggestions in the links above amongst all the fearmongering, but I'd wager that whatever their stated aims, they're not really pushing for reduced immigration, but rather for reduced protections for skilled migrants.

The more power employers hold over their skilled migrant workers, the more money they can make (from not only their skilled migrant workers but also from the rest of their workforce, who are now competing with the latter.)

Agreed. Fish sticks must be a regional thing, maybe East Coast where more fried fish is common. The only cheap fish of this sort that I see around the Portland area isn't fried, it's tilapia.

Taking care of health is interesting optimization problem. Too bad that almost advice in the topic is given by people trying to change fit bodies to professional bodybuilders. Or from crash course to fastest results with diminishing returns of time invested. My personal experience that not exercising takes more time than exercising. Yes, when I didn't exercise, I lost a lot more time of being tired and sick than I spend when I started to exercise.

Here's how I started and lost 10kg in under a year, and more than that in fat but didn't measure fat, but belt holes showed it even when I stagnated in weight. Not diabetic so this is just my personal experience should consider your own body.

1) Lifting adjustable dumbbells at home. Done right before taking shower anyway. So avoiding transition time to exercise and avoiding taking extra shower and drying time can go back to computer right after shower. For beginners maximal muscle growth is 3 exercise sessions per week to have enough recovery between sessions, and single well done set is enough stimulation per muscle, it doesn't grow during exercise but during recover from exercise. I had my exercise sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays to be in constantly in a state that if I eat slightly too much it goes to growing muscle instead of fat. Not because maximizing muscle growth, but just to avoid gaining fat at random times. I just had random bodybuilding dumbbell program moves that I thought would hit every muscle and learned those from a book. I didn't have any body weight exercises since moving my weight would of put strain on joints. The time recommendation for that would be more when learning the moves and doing them slowly and checking correct way of doing them and after a while under 30 minutes per session, but keep minimum 10-15 minutes.
Now healthy muscles with about a hour per week after initial investment, and not feeling as tired definitely worth doing.

2) Slowly reducing sugar consumption, and my taste buds eventually adjusted to the change.

3) Random eating habits based on if I'm too concentrated on something to miss a meal. If I eat too little I loose fat, if I eat too much I gain muscle.

4) Once I was healthier I spend some of my thinking time just walking outside thinking the problem before returning to computer for actual implementation. Worked since there was quiet forest path near by.

Now my mistake. I upgraded to going gym trying to gain more muscle after my dumbbells became too small. It increased time requirements for each exercise session. After a while I got so busy that "I'll exercise next week", and it stayed that way for a year. And once the habit was broken it was really hard to get back.
> Is killing millions for profit less bad than killing tens for bigotry?

I'm saying it's a pointless comparison. They're both horrendous crimes and should both be punished and justice pursued for their victims. I agree with you that it's a crying shame that killing millions for profit does not get punished.

A much better for foil to make your point - which I agree is a valid one - would be the number of people in prisons for nonviolent offenses thanks to things like 3-strikes laws, not bigoted murderers.
I’m just trying to take the ideas in this thread seriously. If we are going to argue that it’s bad to try to influence people’s behavior, we ought to think through what that means when applied to entities other than Facebook. That will help us figure out if we really mean what we are saying. Is it an actual value we hold, or only a rhetorical point when we are taking about a few tech companies?
Triple-strand concertina wire isn't that expensive, put that around the perimeter with a single entry control point. Two guards on shift, 4 hours on/8 hours off, twice per day = 4 bodies. Double that to cut the days worked down to 3-5 per week with some flex capacity, keep people well-rested and alert. A quick search indicates an Egyptian military sergeant earns roughly $220/month, so 8 guys @$250 month = $2000 in wages monthly, and a pretty small outlay for equipment (the concertina wire, some rifles, flashlights, comm gear- radios/cellphones, maybe a tablet to verify access rosters).....Even hooking up some perimeter sensors to a computer workstation and generator power wouldn't be more than a low 5-figure investment.

Basic physical security should not be an unreasonable cost burden when there is so much national economic and social interest in preserving Egyptian history.

It may be a good deal but it really sucks for taste.

I can go to any Exxon or Circle K and get a far, far tastier hot dog for $1.50 and I can put mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, chili, onions, relish, hot cheese and/or pickled jalapeno pepper slices on it to boot. If I go to Exxon after 2 pm I can get the same hot dog for $1.

A Costco hot dog is the original GI distress call complete with tooting at both ends. Get the optional chopped onions if you dare.

Golf handicap: a number which reflects how many hours a week the holder spends in the office.

(Even when I was a summer intern, I shared an admin who gave me leverage: she played phone tag, tracked down pricing and availability from vendors, and told everyone who was not explicitly whitelisted that I was "in a meeting." But we also had offices with doors back then too, so maybe it was a different world?)
I wrote a multi-paged essay on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and all the nerve-themes it touched for me. Not because I had to, but because the reading of the book itself compelled me to do so. It's become lost in time, but I want to re-read the book just in order to re-write the essay. The Picture of Dorian Gray had a similar effect, but for only one perspective that rocked my worldview:

Life experience as art.
It was a persuasive documentary but I felt it conflates two issues which happened together - the rise of mobile phones and the rise of social media. The rise of smartphones has an important role in making social media more addictive. Some people are addicted to watching videos from Netflix or browsing websites like hacker news etc on smartphones too, which isn't necessarily a "social" activity.

All the engagement tricks played by social media would have only gotten so far without smartphones. On the contrary, people might have been addicted to smartphones even without social media apps.

Only for my hobby coding trying out ideas across as many languages as I can, as language geek to get inspired about new ways to approach solving problems.

For my line of work. I rather use what is available out of the box in SDK installers and respective IDEs, no need to add extra complexity.

Now in general, I think Rust's sweet spot is on kernel, drivers and maybe composition engine, anything else GC languages with low level features, e.g. Swift, D, Nim, Crystal, .NET Native, Java (after Panama/Vahlala), Go (assuming 2020 generics get in) are a much more productive way to tackle problems.

EDIT: Just like with FP, I am a firm believer that eventually all mainstream languages will have some form of affine types, and Rust will have played the role of a stepping stone into the adoption of Cyclone and ATS ideas for low level coding.
For sure.
Ruby is great for things other than rails, like automation, writing server scripts, and of course small api servers/web sites using sinatra.

I think it is simply an uneducated market. When I was a kid I went everywhere: short trips and long. But I _always_ needed fenders b/c I was always running through water somewhere.

On a modern bicycle unless you're racing (and even then sometimes), fenders are a necessity, not an option.

For example, how many motorcycles don't have fenders? Cars?
Interesting. All the pots in these styles I’ve seen “on” is “brew”, the pot just automatically switches to warm after brewing.

If you shut down the device it tries to brew again, though I expect that it’ll quickly switch to keep warm when there’s no water to boil (I never actually tried).
