I definitely leaned on the perfectionist side. Some of this is messy and difficult to pull apart because although I brought this problem into the marriage my ex is not blameless either. One thing I know is a direct consequence of never saying no is a lack of respect and a lack of attraction. Regardless of why a person never says no they are seen as a doormat, which is unattractive in both men and women.

On the messier side, a few years after our divorce she ended up suing me to adjust our divorce settlement and as part of that process gave a deposition in which she gave no legally relevant details but instead offered a diatribe on what she considered my failures in our marriage. (This did not impress the judge.) It was surprising to me for a few reasons. First, our divorce had been amicable. Second, she had raised none of these issues while we were married so we could have talked about it and/or fixed the issues. Third, it showed that she not only didn’t appreciate the tremendous effort I put into the marriage and her and our family, she wasn’t even aware of it.

Some portion of that is on her, but by never saying no I definitely helped to normalize a very high expectation as “bare minimum” or “no big deal”. I definitely felt unappreciated during the marriage but I just kept trying to do more. And if I don’t appreciate the work I do... why would anyone else?

The Twitter tech lead is Asian, Asians are over-represented (27% vs US 5.4%) and whites under-represented (42% vs US 61%) at Twitter, yet they didn't even bother checking for Asian-Black or Asian-White bias, only White-Black?

2) Anyone with some $ sees you and allocates you some

The study of economics tells us that #2 will tend to more successfully allocate the resources where they are needed. The confidence level is near that of how biologists talk about evolution.

#2 does suffer from "but rich people will protect themselves first." Of course, just as with #1 politically connected people will protect themselves first, and their wealthy benefactors.
Wow. I am surprised to see someone here such misleading and uncharitable claims. What is your definition of mass murder? What evidence do you have that the right has a strategy of it aimed at black people?

>> It is not recommended by anyone to depend on tor against that threat model.

That depends as much on the use case as the threat. Traffic analysis attacks require traffic. Short burst communication via tor (chat/email/bot control commands etc) are not traced as easily as large file downloads or random web browsing. Attacks on the client (malware) are also very hardware dependant. A target using the same Tor client on the same hardware regularly is a softer target than someone connecting randomly via a variety of devices.

The NSA (Or FSB/FBI/CIA et al) are not SHIELD. They operate in the realworld with realworld physics/math. If they did have reliable and simple backdoors into Tor we would have heard about them by now.

Interesting. I remember sometime last year someone on HN asked a question about predicted conflicts in the near future and Egytp and Ethiopia over this damn was one that caught my eye, as I had not heard of it before. It looks like they were correct.
Sure but as I mentioned in my original comment you're assuming that Tweets are only created in a Twitter owned property and this just isn't the case at all. I have no insider knowledge here but my hunch is when they were talking about this problem the calculus was "Do we just make photos posted from the Twitter web or mobile client look good or maybe we can use some ML to attempt to make photos from anywhere look good". I am not at all advocating whether they are doing a good job at that or not but reducing the problem to "a simple UX to select a focal point" is ignoring the massive surface of the problem.
Keep in mind that polypropylene meltblown material (main filtering material) is used in surgical masks just as much, as well as polypropylene spunbond, but somehow they are produced in enough quantity everywhere in the world to satisfy demand of the whole world. The only extra material that surgical masks don't use is probably just "hot air cotton", but it isn't a filtering material, it's a spongy form making material and I doubt there is a shortage of it, given that KN95 and other FFP3/FFP2 masks that use it are available in many countries today and were available all summer.
> I'd be more interested in VSCode if Microsoft's strategy was to relentlessly implement the most popular plugins into VSCode natively such that the most commonly used and needed functions were built in and did not require plugins.

microsoft already has an IDE like this for their core languages; it's called visual studio. it's kinda bloated, but it's still a great tool for languages that microsoft has deigned to grace with its direct attention. for anything else, you're SOL; the plugin ecosystem is pretty limited for VS. the more VSCode reimplements plugins "natively" (isn't it all JS anyway?), the less it has a reason to exist.
Which just means Chromium but with Microsoft’s telemetry, correct?
Metaphorical thinking.
I mean if we save the "intellectual superiority" of Haskells or other FP languages -- (I've used them all) -- in practice with teams of other engineers, and in production where it counts the most, Go has outshined them all. So primitive is surely a way to describe it.
I dislike this fact so much! You're correct of course, and this is the only reason I pay for a personal/family plan. I have no issues using LibreOffice myself (and anyone with whom i corresppond has no clue that I'm not using MS Office); but my partner and offspring have needs. My partner simply prefers office 365, and my offspring uses the school's web version for most work, so it is mostly out of convenience (and sometimes has to submit homework specific via MS Office)... Also honestly, the sheer amount of online storage PLUS the inclusion of the office 365 apps vs , say, dropbox is too compelling a deal to pass up.

As a side note, i dislike how schools tend to push students to learn Office (e.g. Word) sp specifically...I feel as though generations of children are being taught only how to drive a Ford Escort car, but will be confused the day that they have to use, say a Honda Civic, or heaven forbid a non-automatic automobile. As a tangent to this, while the following has never come up when I've interviewed job applicants for my teams...but if all things were roughly equal with candidates, and the only difference between candidates is that one only knows how to use Windows and Office, and the other one knows how to use Windows, and Mac, and Linux (or at least LibreOffice or other office suites, or some combination thereof)...I'll be picking the person who was able to use/learn more than just Windows/Office! </steps down from soapbox>
Why? What Linux user is sitting out there thinking to him/her self "I really wish I could use a Microsoft browser on this Linux distribution"? I can't imagine the number of such people is very big???
Thanks for your response. I think I tried to be too creative and should have just said descriptive words or adjectives. You make a good point on the baggage that race and racial stereotypes have - that is why I asked the question! I wanted to stimulate conversation on using color as a descriptive term and if the users question came from the sensitivity (from the baggage and stereotypes you mentioned) of mentioning color, the fact it’s the only descriptor, or a combination of both. You also make a good point with the purple shirt example but wonder if that oddity would have really compelled a response. My question came from genuine curiosity and desire for discussion and hoped it would be received us such!
> Human rights don't depend on how many people support them.

This is _absolutely_ true! However, the con 50% in this argument argued that "marriage as the union of M persons who X each other" (the pro side doesn't agree on what `M` and `X` should be) isn't a human right, but that "marriage as the union of two persons who are of the kind of persons that can procreate with each other" is. Only one side can be right as to what the basic human right is.
Thanks for the thoughtful reply, cheers.

>How do your goals look? Because the only goals I have are: a) not be homeless, b) not have my family die, and c) [...]

>People who have specific, 'work-ish' goals in their personal lives sort of weird me out.

I'm genuinely confused as to what actually bothers you about "work-ish" goals.

As another example, I used to have a boring (but very high paying) business consulting job. I hated getting on an airplane every single week to write another soul-crushing MS Word report and Powerpoint presentation.

I absolutely had to get out of that type of work or I was going to go insane. Therefore, I used my free time to study web technologies and iOS/Android programming. My "goal" was to reinvent myself to do something else so I could switch to a more enjoyable job or create a startup. I'm forced to use my personal time because my day job had nothing to do with web/mobile technologies. To tie this back to the gp's comment, drinking beers after work with my colleagues at the business consulting job was not a good use of my personal time because it conflicted with how I wanted to change my life for the better.

Using your framework of "not be homeless" and living with the constraint that I don't have a rich uncle to leave me with a $10 million inheritance... what "non-workish" goal should I pursue to build a better life? Or should I just let things "just happen" to me?

EDIT to reply to: ">simple alternative: savings to take 12 months off without becoming homeless. Use the first six months to build the knowledge

Proposing an alternative training schedule doesn't address the crux of the problem I was responding to. The gp is weirded out by people having "work-ish" goals in their personal lives. Therefore, me quitting my job for a year to train my self will still be labeled as having a "work-ish" goal in my free and personal time.
You're wrong. It is possible to both accept uncomfortable truths and be happy. A fundamental part of Stoicism is not to trouble yourself with things out of your control. This frees your mind to be able to think about these things without being personally troubled by them.

The device can identify itself with a UUID, which isn't key material and doesn't allow anyone to break the channel between the actual device and the server, which is still authenticated by the client using the server's public key. The attacker could generate a random UUID and connect to the server, but then it just shows up as an unconfigured device and gets ignored.

The attacker would have to extract the UUID from the device it wanted to impersonate, which still wouldn't allow it to impersonate any other device the same way a WiFi password does, and would then be detectable because there would be two devices claiming to have the same UUID, at which point you generate a new one for the real device after addressing whatever allowed the attacker to extract it to begin with.
While the timing of the shutdown is indeed peculiar if not outright suspicious, I wonder if the "scheduled maintenance" part had something to do with the Emergency Directive 20-04 which was released by the Department of Homeland Security on September 18. It requires all federal agencies to apply a patch to mitigate the newest Windows vulnerability CVE-2020-1472, dubbed Zerologon.

Please contact your local election administrator and observe the central count. It's open and public and absolutely needs to more independent eyeballs.

For a start, postal ballot processing is way more complicated. Your jurisdiction should have an explainer online for local rules and procedures. Something like this: https://www.kingcounty.gov/depts/elections/education-and-out...

Just from memory, quickly, but YMMV:

receive ballots in bins (1-400 per)
sort ballots by precinct (hopefully)
verify signatures (huge task)
open outer envelope
remove ballots
archive outer envelopes
scan ballots
archive ballots

Each and every step has numerous error conditions which must be handled. Adds a lot of overhead.

Plus training of legions of workers. Plus care and feeding of the gear (it breaks). Plus normal workplace safety and security.

Ad nauseam.

Again, please tour your jurisdiction's central count, and bonus points for observing during the actual election. Legendary points for attending the election canvasing board meetings, which adjudicate all the problems that arise and eventually certify the results.

Happy hunting.

Good humor about it is a mark of ‘cosmopolitanism.‘

In a large business building in New York City whenever I’d go down to the mail room there would be couriers and maintainence men hanging around. Each a different ethnicity and shade of color.

Most of the conversations I heard there were from them trading insults in friendly fashion. Most of the jokes were ethnic stereotypes.

It offered them a chance to connect with each other. Out of this play, tolerance is made over time.
While the government absolutely should have fixed the incentives, I am a little puzzled why a huge private equity firm or a Bill-Gates-like figure didn’t fund more N95 machines when the government failed to. (Or at least, I haven’t heard that anyone has.) $25-100M for machines to help get the whole economy back on track seems like an obvious move on both economic and humanitarian grounds.
I haven't seen the science so I might be wrong, but from what I can tell this is correlation not causation. Which is to say intelligent people [in modern times] are less likely to have kids (birth control) and not that intelligent people are less likely to be able to have kids if they want to.
I understand your frustration, but a funny thing here is I get these comments the most when I'm actively working on the site. Doing this stuff solo means not being able to work on every level at once. I just spent a month out in California during the fires setting up a boatload of hardware to add capacity to the site, in part so that even very large archives have a truly remote backup, but that's not a benefit people see in their day-to-day use of the site.

At this point the only accounts that can't get an archive download link are the truly big ones, on the order of 100GB. Raising that threshold (which I believe affects you) was another reason to schlepp out to California.

So I get why it's frustrating to not have pet features like substring search built for you, or unanswered emails, but find it equally frustrating from my side sometimes. It's an old, complex site, and I'm an old, complex guy running it.

This kind of widespread attitude is a stunning reversal from the American exceptionalism of decades past. What do we call it, American fatalism? American incompetence?

In World War II, we retooled our entire economy to embark on years-long total war against fascism. Yet somehow now we can't re-tool less than 0.1% of our total industrial capacity to make PPE? That's beyond us now? Really?

> The machinery to make this is extremely complicated and takes 6 months or more to build, by which time there may be no demand. No amount of invoking the defense production act would change this reality.

We're more than 6 months into the pandemic at this point and no sign of reaching the end. Under a different administration, the Defense Production Act would have been invoked immediately at the outset, onshore manufacturing capability of PPE would have been dramatically ramped up, and it would now already be paying dividends (more than 6 months later!) in the form of significantly increased onshore production of N95 masks and other PPE.

So yes, invoking the DPA absolutely would have changed the reality. The problem is that we didn't do it, not that doing it wouldn't have worked (it would have).
