Yeah this something i have been trying to improve. Taken Barbara Oakley's "Learning to learn" course and read the book(it is essentially the transcript of the book). It def help me better understand theory behind learning. On top of it i have been using Anki - spaced repetition tool - to solidify what i learned.
Having a knowledge repo or a collection of notes that are written with your own words helps immensely as well.
I admit I could be mistaken, but often when I hear people complain that they wish they had been taught to handle their finances or learned about budgeting, it reduces down to "I wish I had been taught not to spend outside my means." Which reduces down further to "I wish I had been taught self-control." To me, the fundamentals have always seemed relatively straightforward: don't spend more than you have, and only take credit or a loan if you have a plan for paying it back on time.

I was raised by parents with limited education, one of whom was an immigrant, and so I was largely on my own when figuring out the minutia of opening a bank account, getting a credit card, saving up for emergencies, etc. But the general lesson of "don't spend more than you have" was imparted. It seems like a pretty obvious thing, but I guess if your parents or guardians are setting bad examples in that regard, it might not be as obvious as it appears to me.
I believe the actual foobar challenge site is still running.
Probably the most important skill people are skipping is etiquette. Which I think says a lot about HN.

Communication (texting, listening, etc), maintaining and creating relationships, avoiding injury, relaxation, exercise, cooking, healthy eating, self defense, first aid, swimming, types of reading (fun, searching, learning), searching, separating truth from fiction, knowing when to seek help, a hobby, cleaning, maintenance, organization, managing money, taxes, investing, personal grooming, shopping, transportation (public transit, biking, driving etc.), reading a map, looking for work, putting something together from instructions.

PS: Maintaining physical and mental heath is not really a specific skill, but much of the above falls under that category.
100k post tax? What company is that??
Honestly, I believe don't specific individual skills matter that much, so whatever aligns with your happiness and curiosity. I think it's more important to focus on the skills that make everyone else's lives better, so: understanding how we all feel and react differently and making your work and communication as accessible to others as possible.
Well, example.com resolves, . test doesn't. Depending on your use case, one or the other may be desirable, but if you're setting up a dev environment, .test is your answer.
This article is really trying to put a negative spin on something that could easily have been spun in a positive way. There's nothing clearly wrong with them, just a long list of minor discomforts from the author's perspective. Poor people have to live in posh houses with a garden and not a "once-fashionable" style? They even mention the council missing out on planning fees as a downside! What?! Since when are planning fees supposed to fund the council's other activities besides planning the building the developer is paying for?
Ah, you might be thinking of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diophantine_equation. Sure enough, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diophantus says: "It should be mentioned here that Diophantus never used general methods in his solutions. Hermann Hankel, renowned German mathematician made the following remark regarding Diophantus. “Our author (Diophantos) not the slightest trace of a general, comprehensive method is discernible; each problem calls for some special method which refuses to work even for the most closely related problems. For this reason it is difficult for the modern scholar to solve the 101st problem even after having studied 100 of Diophantos’s solutions”." I didn't know this, thanks.
You created a false dichotomy where either OP can do it or it doesn't exist, then told me I created the dichotomy. Weird stuff
Blair House is... a house. A family named Blair used to live in it. So, not really parallel to the British usage of "House" for structures like the BBC headquarters, "Broadcasting House", which have never had residential usage, and are in no way suited for it.

This is one of those things that bothers me too. And especially when it comes to software development, I'm genuinely afraid of the fact that a lot of open source development is dependent on a system that none of us can understand or ever hack on. We're also gradually being weaned away from the idea that you should assume we will want to exercise our rights as part of it being open source. People increasingly treat open source solutions like proprietary ones: inflexible and unfixable.

I don't know what to do about how people treat open source, but at least with the open source development situation, I try to support and help develop a simple free and open source solution: Pagure[1]. Unlike most Git forges, Pagure has features that support decentralized development. For example, Pagure supports submitting pull requests with Git repos on any server (regardless of whether it's running Pagure or not) with its remote pull requests feature. Issues and pull request metadata are all stored as git repos using JSON files as data, making it easy and portable to other Pagure instances and easy to convert for any other system. There's development ongoing by one of the other contributors to build an extension for Pagure to support Forgefed[2], a protocol to federate and decentralize code project management. And unlike most Git forges, Pagure is really easy to deploy, update, and modify. Naturally, this means Pagure is packaged in virtually all major distributions[3][4][5][6], too. :)

I wish more folks actually cared about this sort of thing. Maybe then solutions like Pagure would get more adoption and contributors. At least there are some people who care, and that's why Pagure hasn't died yet in the face of GitLab. :)

Because other companies do, so that's where the action is now.

What matters is can we benefit from each others' work, and is there a lot of work being done and shared by others, to benefit from.

It's a (business as well as developer) community, network effect thing.

You might as well ask, why did RISC-V succeed while OpenRISC failed?

The ISA doesn't really matter. It's not like the RISC-V ISA is mind-blowingly special or anything. It's sensible, it does the job about as well as others.

(I say this even though I'm an enthusiast and member of the RISC-V Foundation. I don't think the ISA is the special secret sauce, I think community and sharing are).

There are some great ISA extensions, but many of them came after RISC-V had already gained momentum. And those extensions are mostly because there's a diverse community of companies and developers producing them.

OpenPower has some of that, but not as much.

How would a change to the terms of service change the legal basis? When the contract has been terminated, changes to TOS no longer apply to you, as you don't have a contract.

The only way I see that to matter is if their TOS said they'd save more data/ save it for longer than legally required. Changing their TOS would then affect what data they'd store on ex-customers if they retro-actively applied it. However, their TOS would be irrelevant in that case, as they'd violate GDPR.

Is that true though?

In the article he mentions how a lot of the web frameworks don't have to worry about handling tabindex because the browser does it for them.

I have also yet to find another non-web UI framework that handles styling nearly as well as CSS. Between flexbox, grid, and absolute positioning, you have so much power for creating layouts. Throw in some drop shadows and borders to help highlight the important UI pieces and bam.

I think the common critique of React, Vue, etc on HN is fair when talking about people building simple websites with these highly sophisticated and massively overkill tools. But when it comes to applications I have yet to find something nearly as flexible and good looking with so little work. And they do it by using HTML and CSS which as it turns out are pretty good abstractions to build on. Or at least they are from my perspective as someone who's been using a variety of these frameworks for the past 5 years or so, on quite a few medium sized projects.
Adam Savage's podcast Still Untitled did a really fantastic episode [1] back around Halloween 2018 where they had a molecular biologist come on and talk about his work. The stories he tells are absolutely fascinating and I thoroughly encourage everyone wiht any interest in molecular biology and crazy stories to check it out.

I won't go into it because I'll spoil it, but suffice it to say that normal episodes are 20-30 mins, this one went for 70 mins and the first time I listened to it I immediately restarted it to listen to it again. The first half of the episode is a story that gets more and more insane as it unfolds. Afterwards, he goes into a few other shorter stories of his work.

Anyway, the link to this is because there's one story from about 38:15 to about 45 minutes in that discusses brain-eating amoebas he was involved in. It's not this exact one, but it's related to it. I recommend anyone who finds this interesting to check it out.

Although there's video on youtube, you really don't need video for it and your podcast app of choice should have an audio version of it.

Isn’t learning about bad actions in our history (and no need to go back 400 years) an important part of not repeating them?
>[…] increasingly permitting looser/more expressive typing with `var`, anonymous types, pattern matching, etc.

None of these features are related to loosening the type system.

In the US, we mostly don't name buildings. There are some high profile exceptions, but largely, you'd send mail to a numbered address:
Joe Smith, Unit 123B, 1234 Something Street, Virginia, 20191, USA

And in conversation, when describing where you live, you'd say the street name or neighborhood name. And, if needed, the street address as above.

Apartment buildings often have names, but, in my experience, they're rarely used outside real estate listings.
Normally giving away money to charities is great but in our artificial government-controlled economic environment, it just harms capitalism. I'm tired of this artificial top-down winner-takes-all selection.

At this stage, I'd rather be the lucky recipient of charity donations than a participating member of the economy. It's just easier and more meritocratic.

Everything the elites do seems to destroy the economy and destroy justice.

I highly recommend watching Anand Giridharadas on YouTube - He explains this effect very clearly.

That's a problem with a lot of home-related tasks. You often do them slowly and poorly the first time around and then you don't have an occasion to do them again for another decade or two.
So the bad behavior can continue?

I run into this all the time at work. We're at the point where we've spent 5 whole minutes talking about some software-driven bad behavior. Nobody is sure if this is the first time we've been affected by it (maybe it's the fifth time already, but it is starting to feel like deja vu.)

Someone suggests it isn't really a problem and we should ignore it. This person is very effective at their job and gets lots of stuff done once we've decided to take action. But there's a problem, actually tons of them, they're piling up now and we still have daily conversations about how they aren't a problem, (on a big long rotation so nobody seems to recall if we've seen this one before on any given day.)
Having only seen games on the computer, game boy, game gear and NES before as child it was breathtaking when I could play the Mega Drive for the first time and see Sonic run across the screen. The colors, music and especially the thrill from how fast things were moving around were incredible.

I don't think any console generation after that left a comparable kind of impression on me as turning the Mega Drive on for the first time (might be a side-effect of my age at the time though).
Get to know yourself & be humble.
The Guardian’s whole act is middle class people telling working class people that they should think and act more like them. But most of the working class people don’t read the Guardian so it’s just shouting into a bubble.
None. This is a PR operation, not any real change in policy. If it were a real change, there would be text about GDPR reports to all affected users.
> In practice, is there any difference?

RFC 6761 says that there is a difference when I actually resolve these names. The example.com, example.net, etc. will resolve normally to an existent IP. Moreover they resolve the same way on every DNS cache.

The xxx.test will resolve as non-existent by default, unless you configure your own DNS specifically for them.

Excellent point. People are very quick to praise charity, donations and volunteering, without realizing that having to rely on voluntary actions to keep the world spin is dangerous and morally unjust.

What would persuade them? It would be really hard to explain how it would be possible.
It looks like they support HBM2e memory and I'm assuming since this is the server space they will support a lot of it. So seems to be a combination of sharing and vertical scaling.
Hard disagree. I've got a couple identical wagons (same model, year and everything) and one of them is optioned AWD while another is optioned FWD. The FWD one gets snow tires every winter and it's still the crap one of the bunch. I bet if I constructed some tire commercial-esque test where I compared handling on a literal ice rink it might win but in real world driving conditions (snow under 6" that's been churned into partial slush by the melting action of road salt and the last bunch of cars) it's still second place.

I am comparing some of the cheapest all-seasons on earth to some of the cheapest snow tires on earth in a vehicle platform that was renown at the time for having one of the most effective AWD systems so if I were to compare high dollar all seasons to high dollar snow tires in a vehicle known for having particularly bad AWD the results may be different.
Basic car maintenance skills. Changing a tire, adding oil, checking levels for power steering and coolant, knowing when tires need replacing, etc.

What's wrong with housing the poor in cheap isolated areas? If they're not working, they don't need to be occupying more valuable locations near town. Doesn't the government fund cheap houses on purpose to prevent homelessness? Where's the exploitation? If the poor are too deserving for cheap housing, then who does deserve it?

Yep. Probably in part due to a negative and emotional upbringing, I have needed all of my adult life to learn that listening is a foundation skill.

The few great leaders I have known were each great listeners in their own ways, and capable of making decisions based on what they hear without, it seems to me, concern for "ego."

To me, this seems like a superpower.
I agree documentation is super important! It's I recently started at a new company and have again been implementing the framework described in Manual Work is a Bug[1], summarized as:

1) Document the Steps
2) Create Automation Equivalents
3) Create Automation
4) Self-Service and Autonomous Systems

When I started going through stuff with my coworker, I made a Word document with bullets and sub-bullets for all the steps in a process. When they unexpectedly needed to take a week leave of absence a month into the job, I was able to complete almost every routine part of the job. It took a ton of stress off of them!

Across all my professional jobs, I find #1 to be the hardest. My process is to write down the high-level steps, then strictly follow the documentation next time I do the process, adding more and more detail every time.

Once it's decently documented, I record how long each step takes, and add comments like "This needs to be better documented" or "This is the most tedious step, and would be pretty simple to automate". Timing each step lets me start and complete something between meetings, filling in gaps.

Overall I've found the system to be really helpful. It makes transitioning job duties to new employees trivial and has saved me literally hundreds of hours over just a few years in the professional workforce.

>linking "Rural" to the right to drive a pickup is still a bit cringeworthy IMO.

Can you please show where this point was stated? It seems like you are reading between the lines too much and straw manning.

The point is that “urban” by the definition used to create the statistic in the argument is a very broad term and this makes it difficult to draw good generalizations.

I don’t think a claim for “needing personal transportation with a large range” should be equated to “must be using pickups as commuter vehicles”
I've never worked in Erlang, but I did use Objective-C for a long time, and switched to Swift almost 5 years ago. Strong types makes it massively easier to ship high quality applications, while I could do so in the C variant it took a lot more effort and testing. In Swift I can make the language make it almost impossible to create erroneous code.

It's not that you can't make good code in any language, but the cost is often not worth it; anything that makes it easier and more reliable saves you time and effort in the long run.

No. Nobody said don't deal with the problem. Nobody said it isn't really a problem either. I'm saying go ahead and deal with the problem as best as you can, privately. If you still can't solve it at the source, then mitigate it on your end, and move on. Just because ∃ a problem and you encounter it for a long time, that doesn't mean you need to alarm people across the planet over it, or to publicly crucify someone in the process.

But there is no box! RISC-V is just an ISA; ARM also requires you to write a lot of your own verification, unless you buy VIP (possibly even more expensive than the architectural license) from Arm.

RISC-V does however have a complete formal specification, unlike other ISAs, which is absolutely not just a "black box reference design".

I think from an empirical mindset we have to grant that the lack of evidence probably means there is no significant advantage. Because there have been lots of studies, we can't simply say we don't know if there's an effect, or we don't know how to measure it.

I was specifically addressing the point that:

"It's quite hard to find a similar scenario in Europe: these vast, sparsely-populated tracts of land."

Saying that a part of Europe should be excluded from debate about whether Europe has "sparsely-populated tracts of land" because it is remote and sparsely populated seems a bit circular.

A sizeable chunk of Russia is in Europe - not sure why that should be excluded?

Edit: If people mean the EU or Western Europe when they say "Europe" then that's fine - but it's arguably similar to people from Europe only regarding the US as the two coasts!
I think it's hard as an adult. I never learned as a child (grew up on a very narrow and winding country road) and I did kinda/sorta teach myself as an adult but I never gained the confidence to ride on roads with traffic.

>even above driving

And I have trouble agreeing for most people. Many need cars on a day-to-day basis and even if owning a car doesn't make sense for some people even in the US, being able to rent one and go someplace on the weekend or for a trip opens up a lot of possibilities for many. I wouldn't even have been able to do my first job if I couldn't drive.
