I'm not often this blunt, but you have no idea what you're talking about here. There are explicit clocking systems both within and across cells and they are very important for regulating many biological processes. Please read this article about how they literally use an analog clock synchronization algorithm (something that has been discussed in the literature for computers, too!) to make sure their internal clocks roughly match the macroscopic clock:

Biden can only damage the economy - that's what every government does (and his would do more damage than Trump's because it's going to introduce even more redistribution and spending)
That’s a dumb posthoc justification. You’re suggesting nobody would want to live in Washington state if it had income tax yet Oregon has very similar climates and cultures (both in the east and West) with an income tax and people live there.
One thing I've figured is that in bash you can use $'These kinds of strings', without any variable expansion, but what you get is essentially what's present in most programming languages quote-wise. Example:

$ echo $'hey there, it\'s "double quotes", \'single quotes\', and some \\, \', ", $ chars'
hey there, it's "double quotes", 'single quotes', and some \, ', ", $ chars

The conditions are different now. Infrastructure is better, foreign workers are better trained, American company culture is different (ceos of Microsoft and Google both Indian), and the possibility of American workers creating political friction is becoming non-negligible.
Mostly agreed. A bigger difference might be that American companies do a decent job overall of training their 'apprentice programmers' (that's what fresh grads mostly are).

I used mobx-state-tree once with great success to implement efficient time travelling in an after effects like editor (to implement cmd+z/cmd+y). In the app, the state was updated multiple times per second and it still performed amazingly. I migrated this from mobx to mobx-state-tree and as both libraries work together seamlessly, the migration was super straight forward.

I just ended a two-year sabbatical where I finished an around the world trip of visiting all seven continents of the world. I'm not entirely up to speed yet. I would fail a leet code test right now. Lately, I've been working on a side project for fun – https://randomdailyart.com/. I am doing a lot of work with Go Hugo. Also, a ton of cool automation stuff with Huginn, n8n, etc. I think it's better to start with the fun stuff I enjoy. Slowly, I'm getting back into the heavy TypeScript react work from before my sabbatical.

They could do outsourcing today, yesterday, and 10 years ago just as well. Nothing changed, structurally or technologically (covid is neither), for outsourcing to work better now than it used to be so far.

There will always be companies who need to learn on their own how $20K developers are different from $200K developers and what investing in either means 10 years down the road.

By the way, good developers with good English and good communication skills can easily earn MUCH more than $20K even today by working remotely. Already today in most countries there are almost no barriers to earning multiples of their national averages other than one's own skills and attitude. And yet dev salaries in America are as high as ever.

The industry seems to be growing faster than the labour force even despite globalization, and I don't think that trend will reverse anytime soon. We're still shoving software into more places, industries, and processes, and making it all more complicated.
Update on Youtube: Video unavailable. This video is private.
Of course there are downsides, there are lots.

The first downside is that it creates work. Yes, some tools will break, it's always going to happen when stable identifiers are renamed. No, saying "it was always theoretically possible" is not a get-out clause. Breaking software has a cost, often a large and unpredictable one. Any protocol, any API can theoretically change at any moment, which is why successful software companies often promise not to do that.

Secondly and more subtly it creates work discussing it, actually doing the renames. This is time that would be spent on other useful things, but instead gets sucked up by this.

Thirdly, the premise is offensive and wrong, which will anger a lot of people. The implied belief behind these changes is that the people who chose to use the word "master" before were racist. And now all this fuss has occurred, there's an even stronger implication that anyone who does not rename their branches is racist. But this isn't true and thus a deeply offensive case of false accusations on a truly epic scale. Moreover this appears to assume that language creates reality, so strongly that renaming "master" to something else will actually alter people's deeply held and embedded beliefs based on their own lifetime of experience. There's a lot of evidence this idea is completely false, in fact linguists haven't believed this for nearly 100 years. So it's anti-scientific.

Fourthly, everyone knows that exactly because the premises are aggressive and irrational, it doesn't stop with this. The sort of people demanding these changes are insatiable. Once you start paying the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane. Next up, anywhere that uses whitelist and blacklist. You think renaming master generates an acceptable level of breakage? Wait until those two start getting renamed and a whole lot of security mechanisms stop working. What about whitespace?

No, the madness (for that's what it is) will never end. The downsides to giving in to this kind of aggressive, toxic demand are limitless because there will never be a point at which the Woke Police will feel they've done enough - they will continue demanding that when they yell and get upset you dance for them, forever, until they are expelled from the communities they are attempting to take over.
I can't write a JavaScript for loop, and it does not matter
It works, but that feels like you're hijacking HTML/CSS for an unintended use case.
Even without mortgage interest, owning a house outright has an opportunity cost. Since you could use that capital elsewhere instead.
I have been out of the loop for a long time, but AFAIK gforth-fast is still quite far behind the commercial forths when it comes to speed. I believe there is still room for improvement of forth speed, but iirc the VFX forth people didn't think it was worth the extra compilation time. Back then it compiled a 1MLOC project in 29 seconds, and the resulting code was plenty fast. As a baseline, a fast non-optimizing compiler should be able to compile about 1mloc a second for a moderately simple language.
There's good advice elsewhere in this thread to put some energy into non-work activities, such as cultivating personal relationships and hobbies that are quite different from the day job.

One trap I've personally struggled with at times in the past is becoming over-invested in my job, and then getting frustrated with or depressed about work. Usually this has happened when I haven't had much else going on in my life outside work to focus on, leading me to focus on and then over emphasise work frustrations. As I've gotten a bit more perspective over time I've come to expect less from work, it's a way to pay the bills and that's why I'm there. Still worth looking for a better job every now and again, especially if you've ended up in a role where you have stopped learning.

There's a bit of research that backs this kind of pattern up: people who are younger, unmarried, don't have children are more likely to experience burnout:

> To me, the most beguiling data to emerge from burnout research are the profiles of the people who experience it most acutely. In her early work, for instance, Maslach found that younger people burn out more often than older people, a finding that turns up again and again both here and abroad. (In fact, that study from the University of Michigan explicitly said that younger surgeons burn out more quickly than older ones.) This conclusion may seem counterintuitive, because we associate burning out somehow with midlife disillusionment. But not if we think of burnout as the gap between expectations and rewards. Older workers, as it turns out, have more perspective and more experience; it’s the young idealists who go flying into a profession, plumped full of high hopes, and run full-speed into a wall. Maslach also found that married people burn out less often than single people, as long as their marriages are good, because they don’t depend as much on their jobs for fulfillment. And childless people, though unburdened by the daily strains of parenting, tend to burn out far more than people with kids. (This, too, has been found across cultures; in the Netherlands, a recent survey by the Bureau of Statistics showed that twice as many working women without children showed symptoms of burnout as did working women with underage children.) It’s much easier to disproportionately invest emotional and physical capital in the office if you have nowhere else to put it. And the office seldom loves you back.

The BSDs are the obvious 'copycenter' alternatives to GNU/Linux, not sure if they have any traction in IOT though.
My favorite app made with QT ever is Telegram client.

https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop

It's so fast to use and the UX is incredible. I'm curious how much custom code is there per platform or QT takes care of most everything.

I'd love to maybe learn QT but C++ always seemed hard to approach although I know there are bindings from various languages to it.
There is a base circadian period which is roughly the length of a day, but it varies between individuals. If you put people in caves with no light at all, they'll still naturally fall into a sleep/wake cycle around 24 hours (it tends to be slightly longer).

Specifically it comes from your SCN https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suprachiasmatic_nucleus

The answer is it's evolved and some kind of complex cellular feedback mechanism, but Wikipedia is a bit light on details. Apparently this clock is also fanned out in some way to other parts of the brain/body which also follow a daily cycle.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B978044459...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2735866/

Light isn't mandatory, but the SCN will synchronise to daily light patterns (eg when you travel). The SCN is also physically located close to the optic nerve. I think this is why the underlying rhythm is a slightly longer than a day, because it allows the body to reset it to 24 hours. If the period was shorter, even slightly less than 24 hours, maybe you'd have problems when the clock restarted before the day finished and the error would propagate over time (you'd keep shifting the cycle).
I guess it could be argued that we're heading up an evolutionary dead end. It has happened before and undoubtedly will again. It's also true though that so far no one has come up with a suitable alternative other than his sort of primitivism.
These guys seem to be working on it in that way: https://knowm.org/
> through political action (such as activism, lobbying and campaigning), societies should continuously reevaluate what topics are within the political sphere.

No that's not what I've said. I talked about discourse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discourse

This difference is important since the discourse is in itself not framed by any material boundaries. This difference also answers your question on whether political action deciding on the scope of politics might be incoherent.

> Claiming that bedrooms "aren't" [political] is naive. There are still absolutely exist people who have and are and will continue to try and control what people can do in their bedrooms.

A shared understanding of what is political does not require every single person to agree on the scope of politics. In the end it's all about relative stability, not unanimity or majority or something like that.

> Just because one side ... won the argument ... doesn't mean that things are finished.

There I agree. I don't think the concept of "finished" exists in any human context.

> Who decided that bedrooms were off limits but uteruses weren't? How? Why? Can I change that? Those are all political questions.

This question on who specifically might make a specific decision seems to be a reoccurring theme in our dialogue. In modern societies that's usually a multitude of interlinked processes. Very rarely there's an isolationable agent/action relation relationship. ...and that's, of course, a good thing.

> ... this isn't even a discussion, you're not allowed to bring up this complaint ...

Who forbade you anything, by the way? I don't get why this conversation should be so confrontational or accusatory.

I have no strong feelings on any of the many crossroads in debating social science epistemology or democratic theory in general.

The basic problem is that hierarchical organization of the society where a human's worth is determined by his birth is a core classical Hindu (i.e., "Brahmanical") value; egalitarianism is not.

Either Hindus must rewrite the theology of Hinduism to accept an interpretation of the concept of varNa in a way that is concordant with humanistic and egalitarian ideals, or Hindus must accept that Hinduism will be reduced to a minority religion in India. I can't imagine why anyone would agree to be part of a religion that formally considers him or her as a lower class human by birth than certain other humans in the same religion.

Would the current side loading capability, requiring a hard link to a Mac and an install of XCode, satisfy those calling for a side loading capability for consumers? I doubt it, but that's my point. Who gets to decide what satisfies any such requirement? Building in the features to support third party app stores is even more of a can of worms.

For me, this escapes spaces with backslashes; the example in the article escapes them by quoting the whole string. Is this a difference in bash versions, or do these uses differ somehow?

A year ago I was required to hire two developers from TCS. One pattern I noticed is that a lot of developers from TCS, when they don't know the answer to a question, just answer a different question. Another Indian that I did hire, explained that this is a product from Indian culture where not knowing something is seen as a weakness, so people don't want to admit they don't know something, and hide it by answering something else and hoping for the best. I really strongly prefer developers who know and are honest about their limitations. Nobody knows everything, so it's fine if you say you don't know. That makes it a learning opportunity. That opportunity gets closed off when you pretend to know something you don't.

This makes it really hard to hire people from TCS. I did eventually find two good ones, fortunately.
>I'm volunteering in a school in Rural VA, and about half our students couldn't afford a class where we had to pay $0.20 per circuit we make.

If you're ordering for an entire series of classes, then you could probably get the cost of each individual PCB under $0.20. It would take some forward planning, but it's doable.

In general, it's common for kids to have no money. (I had no money when I was a kid.) If you are doing electronics on an extreme budget then naturally you'll just have to use whatever equipment you can get hold of. But PCBs are really really really cheap. If you cannot afford PCBs you probably can't afford lots of other things that you need.

That's not to say that you should be using PCBs. I have no experience teaching kids electronics.
> And still, how many of those guys went, and chose FreeBSD over Linux?

Well, Apple is at 14% of the smartphone market globally and that's derived from BSD, Macs are smaller but also BSD.

The OS is just one case, it's hard to catch up with Linux, but that has not stopped Fuschia (BSD/MIT/Apache) and proprietary, nor SaaS where Linux powers it but is not "distributed" in GPL terms.

The shape of the future is people are stopping feeding the GPL commons in favour of permissive licenses that the $$$ wants https://resources.whitesourcesoftware.com/blog-whitesource/o... shows over half of projects in 2019 are MIT /Apache vs GPL(s), and a steady decline in even GPL3 usage.

I don't know what should be done about enforcement but I do know these realities have to be factored into any useful considering about that.
