> But it's worth remembering that you have one existence, one set of time and energy to spend in this life. If you decide to look at the world this way, and operate with this mindset, then that's how you're choosing to spend it.

One other perspective:

Yes, the ideologies we subscribe to will highly influence what we see and experience.

However!

You can choose to experiment / experience quite the many ways or living and being in the decades you're likely to he here.

Each day is a new opportunity to act differently if whatever you were doing yesterday doesn't serve you and those around you.
But you have to recognize that this system is very atypical outside of FAANGs. Most large companies have very modest stock incentive programs.
The Constitution doesn't directly say the Supreme Court has a power of judicial review that can overturn laws. It's just that the Supreme Court interprets it that way, and we currently go along with that. The person who proposed a separate top court for constitutional appeals (not me) was making more of a realpolitik point than a constitutional one.

However, I think a variation of the idea would be constitutional: within the Supreme Court, Congress creates two divisions for purposes of appellate jurisdiction cases (they would stay unified for original jurisdiction cases to avoid a constitutional problem). Justices would be assigned to only one or the other, no overlap. One division handles constitutional appeals, one division handles other cases.

Congress could also remove the appellate jurisdiction of the court to hear claims that laws are unconstitutional, leaving the only appellate jurisdiction as claims that officials are acting illegally or unconstitutionally or disputes of lower-level decisions as incorrect.

I'm not saying this is necessary good policy, but it would be constitutional.
One of the tests is for backing the vehicle up. In that test, you may not touch the curb. It's not otherwise obvious from the document provided that any other contact with the curb is disallowed. So either it's untrue that it's disallowed when pulling forward, or it's untrue that you know about it upfront.

Regardless, not touching the curb, even if arbitrary, can be an indicator of competence. It demonstrates control and awareness of the vehicle.

Memorizing an algorithm is a potential indicator of many things, not all positive, but I don't think it says anything at all about competence.

> ...you can't inch forward until your front wheels come to rest on the curb. ...if you still contact the curb, then you've demonstrated that you don't know where the boundaries of your vehicle are.

This demonstrates one reason why whiteboard interviews aren't great. They don't mean what people think they mean, and people think of them in very black-and-white terms. X always implies Y, or at best they say, "Well, maybe not, but..." and then justify the exact same result with only superficially different reasoning.

In your example, the driver might have demonstrated he doesn't know where the front or rear of the wheel is exactly. But it could also be he was just nervous or driving a vehicle he isn't used to using. Maybe he had to borrow his older brother's car when mom's broke down at the last minute. Saying he doesn't know where the boundaries of his vehicle are goes against all the other evidence: he didn't strike anything with the boundaries of his car. The curb is already inside those boundaries, intentionally and by design of the test.

With all due respect to Mikszáth, you don’t have full control over how you “appear” to others. Sure, we can influence our appearance with our actions but it’s also impacted by things outside our control. People will always view our actions through their unique lens biased by their own experiences, thoughts, mental models etc.

I think the Stoics would argue it’s better to just focus on what’s the right thing to do regardless of how it “appears” externally

I just realized I need this for myself and quickly cooked up a solution using tridactyl, ddgr, and jq that fits perfectly in my workflow. Everything is reduced to just typing `:cp <SEARCH QUERY>` without moving to a new tab or losing flow.

The entire function is basically this (requires Tridactyl native messenger).

command cp js -p tri.native.run('cd ~ && ddgr --json -n 1 ' +JS_ARG + '| jq -r ".[0].url" | xclip -sel clip')

Yeah it's not so much cranking out 100X the code as it is good decisions, good teamwork, and management that clears the road rather than throws up obstacles. Some people could not do the same, even given the same advantages, but at the same time it's pretty much impossible to produce the same kind of results in an environment without those.

There is historical precedence for billboards and other advertising in black communities giving the wrong date of the election, or telling people only a passport will be taken as ID, etc. It isn’t telling them not to vote but is effectively discouraging or misinforming.
I have been teaching a few lessons to kids in Scratch on how to code.

I recently read A Mathematician's Lament and it gave me pause to consider if my approach to teaching could be changed.

I think a better goal would be to teach kids to think on their own. They need something that keeps them interested and curious.
In the past year, I've used my steam account for VR games 50% of the time roughly and they still didn't really push Alyx all that much.

That said given I mostly only do short game sessions , maybe they figured that I wouldn't be that interested in it?
From the link given above:

These seem like benefits everyone should be able to take advantage of. But not all people process sunlight the same way. And the current U.S. sun-exposure guidelines were written for the whitest people on earth.

Every year, Richard Weller spends time working in a skin hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Not only is Addis Ababa near the equator, it also sits above 7,500 feet, so it receives massive UV radiation. Despite that, says Weller, “I have not seen a skin cancer. And yet Africans in Britain and America are told to avoid the sun.”

...

People of color rarely get melanoma. The rate is 26 per 100,000 in Caucasians, 5 per 100,000 in Hispanics, and 1 per 100,000 in African Americans.

...

How did we get through the Neolithic Era without sunscreen? Actually, perfectly well. What’s counterintuitive is that dermatologists run around saying, ‘Don’t go outside, you might die.’

At the same time, African Americans suffer high rates of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, internal cancers, and other diseases that seem to improve in the presence of sunlight, of which they may well not be getting enough. Because of their genetically higher levels of melanin, they require more sun exposure to produce compounds like vitamin D, and they are less able to store that vitamin for darker days. They have much to gain from the sun and little to fear.
The few bad reviews might be due to commingled counterfeit inventory

True, I found that a while ago, too. Don't remember what was the reason that I did not start using it again.
Looks like the filtering is a bit strange. If I filter mass produced only then ergodox ez is misisng, if I filter source only then ergodox ez is missing, but if I filter both then it appears? I know it's both open source and mass produced but filters should display the keyboard if at least one of them matches...

Yeah. IMHO the best option is to create a new layout instead.
We might want to say that our existence is some evidence that the filter is ahead of us but it could certainly be behind us (in which case the logic of the Great Filter doesn't apply for our civilization)

I suppose I'm pointing out the nuance between "Big Tech Co", "Startup" and FAANG.

There are plenty of big tech companies that pay well, offer a lot of freedom, interesting tech, but are also not FAANG companies with silly interviewing practices.
The income they had was through ads. Those revenues now go to Facebook and Google. The retail price covered maybe printing and distribution, but not the content creation.

If you go to a facebook stream: how.many different news sites do you really get? - It's few. Most your "friends" have their go-to media they share and random outliers. It feels broad, but I doubt it's broad for the typical user.

I want to like Zig, but I'm just not motivated to with an experience like this. I've been doing Python for a while, and I got my eyes on Nim for the next generation of languages.
The irony of this story being posted to HN, where the majority of users are in professions likely contributing to the worsening of internet and social media addiction.

They should spin off at that point. The original inventors can holds stock and earn return, but the platform would have to operate at arm's length from the original product.
I am not proposing anything. I am just observing what happens empirically. Doing these things tends to get people soft influence but no formal authority. It's simply what is.
I don’t intend for this to sound judge-y but I’m curious if not being internally motivated for the work impacts your motivation, particularly with work that is essential for the goal but not particularly high status/visibility. Do you find motivation waning?
So how would this rule apply to the Apple App Store, for example? Presumably it wouldn't prevent them from making free stock apps like Mail, Safari, and Maps, right? Would they still be allowed to offer these apps, so long as they are free and are not privileged over third-party apps?

Or would Apple be prevented from offering any apps whatsoever? I would think a rule like this would be bad for consumers, and would also lead Apple to draw different lines between what is an app and what is a built in OS functionality (i.e., migrate app functionality into the OS itself, in order to avoid the rule).
China, Taiwan, and a number of other states (many in east / southeast Asia) have effectively contained the virus. China did so in 6--8 weeks.

Last I checked, 30 years treasuries were in the neighborhood of 1.5%, and not 0.25%.

More importantly, the reason all those stupid ways are employed is that then the private companies running it have incentive to keep the costs down. Just compare it with recent California's high speed rail project, which was direct development paid for by the state, like you suggest. The most recent cost estimate was $100B, or $250M per mile.
The author is self-aware enough to realize the issue with all of it, but not enough to know that boundary setting is what comes next? Either they can manage their boundaries an prioritize their life or maintain the status quo. Establishing boundaries requires actual effort.

I guess it could be worse. They could be completely unaware which is what makes jokes about this kind of lifestyle land so well[1].

It’s not really possible to give buybacks and dividends the same tax treatment unless we make massive changes to how volatile assets like public equities are taxed, and any of those changes would come with their own set of knock on effects. It’s not obvious to me that buyback tax reform is something we should obviously do.
>You get the performance of local storage

Durable workers are still a network call over the internet. That is orders of magnitudes slower than using local storage in the browser.

>when I clicked "Add Item" in a shopping cart on some website, it happened <5ms

You're not going to get that level of performance. All edge storage does is saves you the time it takes a packet to go from the edge to the server. For example, I'm in Atlanta and the Hacker news server is in San Diego. This is my traceroute:

1 LEDE.lan (192.168.1.1) 12.652 ms 12.596 ms 12.561 ms

2 96.120.5.9 (96.120.5.9) 32.606 ms 32.604 ms 32.581 ms

3 68.85.68.85 (68.85.68.85) 34.831 ms 34.821 ms 34.792 ms

4 96.108.116.41 (96.108.116.41) 34.762 ms 34.730 ms
34.706 ms

5 ae-9.edge4.Atlanta2.Level3.net (4.68.38.113) 39.613 ms 64.603 ms 57.149 ms

6 ae-0-11.bar1.SanDiego1.Level3.net (4.69.146.65) 89.310 ms 66.298 ms 76.021 ms

7 M5-HOSTING.bar1.SanDiego1.Level3.net (4.16.110.170) 75.982 ms 69.094 ms 79.199 ms

The last hop in Atlanta before hitting the backbone has a round trip time of ~35ms and the first in San Diego is ~75ms. So everything else equal, if HN was served from a edge location I'd save 40ms on a page load. Ultimately 40 ms doesn't matter because it's not something that the end user can perceive.
> you could associate a discomfort from the struggles of being bad at it initially

That's not my experience at all. My Mom taught me algebra at home when I was in elementary school, years before algebra is generally taught. I struggled a lot and did have the discomfort you mentioned. That instantly went away when schools started teaching algebra and I discovered that I already learned everything and can do the exercises so much faster and better than my classmates. I was already pretty confident but it was another confidence boost.
nice. friend of my grandfather had similar and it was USSR DIY. It had 2 PCB boards full of transistors and other elements to drive them :) At that time no lcd was available for amateurs, so it was a natural, non-vintage choice :)
We're going through a pandemic right now because a virus has successfully found a way to evade our robust immune systems.

You can take a country as deadly as Australia and introduce something as innocuous as 24 rabbits, and it can have an absolutely devastating effect on the ecosystem.

Frankly it's beyond hubris to suggest that we'd be fine just because of the way we've evolved.
I'm interested in reading thoughtful, truthful pieces, and I'll pay for it, and I'll keep coming back (loyal). I'm absolutely not interested in trying to verify the authenticity / authority of unfamiliar publications every day / week.

While I don't limit myself to just one band, I also prefer a real DJ to spotify, for so many reasons. I'm probably just getting old though.

Basically, I'll pay for expertise in these areas.
Ohhh. I've always wondered who are these low-English-speaking people with clipboards and scammers who seem to be stock clerking at the store, but when I ask a question they say "I don't work here".
What kind of work do you do? I've heard nice things about working for the government (in terms of QOL, anyway), though of course the work is nothing sexy.
My question was not meant to be OT versus CRDT. Rather, I am questioning expectations at that shared editing use case.

Comparing to git (as others have done) is interesting. The expectation is any merge is manually tested by the user. Such that it is not just the git actions at play, but all support activity. That is, the user flow assumes all intermediate states are touched and verified by a user. Where this is skipped, things increase the risk of being broken. (Is why git bisect often fails projects that don't build every commit.)

Same for games. Some machine gets to set the record straight as to what actually happened. Pretty much always. The faster the path to the authority for every edit, the higher chance of coherence.

With hundreds of authorities, machine or not, this feels intractable.
MIT is FAR from the only offender here, so much so that I find it odd to be calling MIT out in particular.

And abuse takes a lot of forms. My advisor once went eighteen months without ever laying eyes on one of his doctoral students.
Not intending to nit-pick, but Git doesn't store the content as deltas. Each commit is the snapshot of the entirety of the codebase at that point in time.
My thought was a very good reason to switch to a PinePhone or Purism Librem for true software freedom.
On Google I just search for "define wordtodefine" (which isn't must longer and might even be faster to type) or even just "wordtodefine" (Google seems to be pretty good at knowing whether a single-word search is likely to be looking for the definition).
Thanks for your comments Jemaclus.

> The iOS/Bluetooth integration is quite simply mind-blowing to me. It connects seamlessly directly to the hearing aid.

So, you configure your iphone once to pair with the HA, and then after that it is seamless? Does it pair and unpair based on proximity, or do you have to do something each time?

Could you also or alternatively pair with a landline phone and use it the same way?
Which is yet another thing that they need to be taken to task for. No other mass retailer has such loosely managed supply chains.

> All the content in the world won't help them if you spend your time staring at the home screen while bad algorithms recommend the wrong things.

What? I can read about quality shows to watch on any number of websites or recommendations from people I know, and just search for the title of the show.

On the other hand, if you fill up your inventory with 99% garbage, like Netflix has, it doesn’t matter how good your algorithm is, since it’s going to come back with garbage.

I don’t notice any performance difference between HBO Max, Apple TV+, Netflix, or Amazon Prime. I press play, and it plays. What I do notice is most of the content is garbage, so I just wait to hear about good shows, and then once a sufficient number of people claim it’s worth watching, I go and play specifically that.
At some point, you learn bad habits, reading comprehension, and writing quality are subpar. But even the different sciences are mostly independent. With math--which is a foundation for physics too of course, while there are a few areas like geometric proofs that I didn't get along with and mostly didn't come back to, math does tend to build on itself to a large degree. And if you get too far behind, it gets increasingly hard to keep progressing.
Not dumb, you answered the question I asked :D

But yeah, I agree that duplicating the intersection produces another interesting question.

In any case, "convenient approximation of row types" probably still applies to TS more than Haskell. And possibly also "more convenient row types", but that remains TBD.
A single quick search and you're good to go. Besides, if you need to look it up then you're probably better off reading a quick summary anyways.

Spelling out "Conflict-free replicated data type" doesn't really help beginners all that much and non-beginners will just use "CRDT" anyways.

We don't need every article about the web to spell out HTTP right? I don't get why the author is getting beat up just because his free content isn't convenient enough.
Important note about these studies: Success = high employee growth from year 0-5 OR fastest sales growth OR successfully exit through an IPO or acquisition

VC isn't looking at those three factors above. They are looking at LARGEST overall return percentage. VC and the media don't care about 1-30x returns, which is likely where most of these exits are.

HBR should go back and look at the ages of founders that have $1B exits or 100X+ returns on capital if they want to know "why some VCs persist in betting on young founders."

They should likely just consult their colleagues on a different side of their website:

"The average age at founding (a unicorn) in our dataset was just over 31, and the median was 30."

So I have little experience in these things. The first thing I thought is "doesn't file/magic do this form me"? Eg, https://github.com/file/file .

My cursory view suggests that the shibboleth file could be exported into something that file could parse. But of course there's the overhead of all the things which shibboleth doesn't try to handle.

I then wondered where the signatures came from. My again cursory view shows many file signatures which aren't in file/magic. Which makes me think they could be folded in.

I'm left wondering. Cursorily.
Frankly we won’t know until we find ET life. If we’re talking about something that is relatively similar to a Terran bacteria then perhaps it could interact with our cells.

Alternatively, it is probably far more likely that life from Earth would rapidly evolve to kill or replace any extant life on other worlds, especially microscopic life. We know that Terran life is tenacious. It readily thrives in hostile environments and has evolved under extreme adversarial pressures on Earth. It’s not a stretch to imagine that it could become the apex predator in an ecosystem devoid of such extreme evolutionary pressure.
