That lines up with my experience. I drank in college and I certainly had started to develop anxiety by then. By the time I was in the service that drinking scaled to a handle or a thirty rack a day.

Post-service I eventually quit drinking completely. It took a while, but I did it. The anxiety has never gone away but it's not as crippling as it was when I was drinking.

CBT really helps at least manage the symptoms and when I feel like I'm breaking down I can at least manage to slowly walk myself back. Having friends who aren't annoyed by the symptoms and are bold enough to walk you through those days is life-saving as well.
I'm sorry, I fail to see how providing a counter-example to someone pooh-poohing phone use by children is now analogous to advocating for productive cocaine use.

I believe the comment is saying that medical genetic testing and selective abortion is necessary because modern medicine protects people with e.g BRCA1 or cystic fibrosis.
Aren't there cases where the market fails when considered in broader context?

E.g., the market decides to off-shore manufacturing. This is good short-term as it leads to lower prices for consumers. But it's also potentially a failure at a national long-term level as it has reduced our manufacturing capacity. The short-term bias of the market can adversely affect long lead-time strategic interests. See: the inability to quickly pivot to manufacture medical goods in a pandemic or military goods in a large-scale conflict.

These types of market failures are what lead to the socialization that you mention.

I don't they are referring to DS patients. Just that Darwinian evolutionary processes only selects for traits that make an impact prior to reproductive age. If a trait isn't expressed until after you have kids (MS, Huntington's etc.) it becomes easier to pass it on. Also as more diseases become survivable due to treatments / science then it would be easier to pass those traits on as well.
Geopolitical considerations aside, how is tech development on big projects like AEGIS (or, the other counterexample is how the air forces develop things like the JSF systems electronics, airborne command and control systems/AWACS, etc).

It would seem just isolating on the problems needing to be solved that this would be as intriguing as, say, Space X developing autonomously landing first stage rocket boosters and drone ships...but I'd imagine the development process and culture to be dramatically different.

> not a marketplace failure. Remove the subsidies and the market would quickly find the higher price at which dairy farmers could produce milk profitably and consumers would purchase it.

If it is in our societal interest to produce more milk so people can eat, and the market doesn't do so, requiring subsidy, then that is a failure of the market to meet society's need.

You're conflating the failure of a marketplace to function properly (as in smooth functioning of supply, demand, liquidity, etc) with the failure of the marketplace to provide social benefit.
I think this is one of the best visualizations of I/Q signals I've ever seen. The idea of negative audio frequencies takes some getting used to, but works out very well in some DSP systems.

Negative frequencies are like when a 3 phase generator runs backwards... everything plugged into it also runs backwards... the sign of the frequency tells you the direction of rotation, and the frequency is the speed.

If you had 2 antennas 1/4 wave apart, and used them for I and Q, you would then be able to tell which direction the signal was coming from along the I/Q antenna axis. With 3 or more antenna, you can determine compass direction of the source.

The same is true for 2 microphones, at any frequency where the microphones are 1/4+N wavelengths apart.
It's also the case that genius alone isn't sufficient. One also needs hard work and, as Ramanujan illustrates, access to institutions that can publish+legitimize the work.

I also find it fun to consider that the population is 7x larger today than it was in 1800, and there's generally much better access to education across the board. Around 1900 you've got a bunch of absolute giants in mathematics: Hilbert and Ramanujan, for starters, but also Riemann and Lobachevsky (whose noneuclidean geometry work was basically Einstein minus the physics). So, suppose O(5) world-changing geniuses. On raw population alone, one would expect about 35 people of similar caliber to be active today. But also mathematics as a profession, access to phd programs, etc, is many times larger per capita than it would have been in 1900. So I would personally guess that there's likely to be a couple hundred people currently active in math of a similar caliber.
Its been goverment mandated " LAW " to pay every invidual the same min wage and goverment 'award" for decades

Both Bilogical sex's (male and female) have been getting paid the SAME per hour rate for many years

get paid the same as someone in a hot wharehouse or outside in the sun with phsyical labor , end up getting paid the same at the end of the week

Higher min wage ends up in higher consumer pricing and higher cost of living

If a business earns 5000 dollars per week
and uses 4000 towards wages , increasing the min wage will reduce staff and hours for that same 4000 dollars used for wages
Consider replacing the builder grade bathroom fans first, however. The typical ones you'll find are very energy inefficient, intentionally loud, but move relatively little air. They're also probably caked in dust further reducing effectiveness. While you're at it, make sure the fan is not venting into your attic space (I don't think there's any climate where that's still acceptable, but could be wrong).

> Apple has made rev share changes in the past unprovoked (like 15% for sustained subs)

That wasn't an unprovoked change, it was an olive branch to companies like Amazon that were pressuring Apple for more attractive terms.

> But I would bet in that case Apple did it to take wind out of Epic’s sails around standing up for little devs.

Right, that's what I said. Apple is facing pressure from Epic, it's getting bad PR in press releases from other large companies like Microsoft, indie devs are starting to get mad, and legislators are starting to float ideas about antitrust.

Apple is in a position where they need a positive PR push about their app store policies; they need to be able to hit back at the negative press and claim that they're offering more attractive terms than the competition. They're in that position because the negative pressure is working; it's forcing them to respond.

> Zero proof this 15% reduction has anything to do with pressure from that legal battle.

Short of email leaks or Apple publicly admitting that they're doing this to take public pressure off of their store policies, what would convince you that these changes are related to the current legal battle(s) they're facing?

My take is that we've seen this happen multiple times with multiple companies. Steam went through the same process with Epic: they got slammed by publishers for doing very little work in courting them, and as a result, they changed some of their terms to be more attractive to large studios. Microsoft originally ported IE to Macs to help try and rein in suspicions that they were trying to turn the web into a Windows only platform. Apple's recent review process overhauls are minor concessions to try and get people to stop talking about the negative experiences that publishers like Basecamp have had with opaque rules and rejections.

At some point, when you look at the broader industry, you start to see patterns, and those patterns are that broad, uniform negative press and lawsuits are often (but not always) effective tools when it comes to forcing companies to at least make small concessions on their policies. I think it's very reasonable to look at this change as an indication that Apple is scared of antitrust and thinks that it is possible that further antitrust efforts might succeed.
It seems to me that a million conventionally armed soldiers today is like a legion of horse mounted soldiers in WW1. Technology has advanced so much since the last total war that any future war would look completely different (reference is to horses used in battle vs tanks during WW1).
The difficulty I have with this is we are now actively choosing who gets to live and who doesn't. Yes it's at a very early stage of pregnancy but it may have a profound impact on the future of all human societies. The morality of such actions should be examined thoroughly. This is far from a cure to genetic diseases it is removal of diseased individuals from the population. Any selective removal can be dangerous. If you look at China's sex selective abortions and the social pressures that is putting on their society as one example. If you look at the Nazi eugenics campaigns to see how bad it can get. I really think people need to think long and hard before they take a side on opening the Pandora's box.
I went to a college with a coop program. This sorta seems to be similar but much shorter. But at least I was paid for that.

I also graduated Lambda School (I'm no longer in their slack). I can see how this is pitched internally to students. There used to be a large project that was the last thing you did before you graduated. It was always a bit of a mess, as most school group projects are. This is replacing that, and I assume the students are pitched that these companies could potentially hire them afterwards.

The Lambda curriculum is rather rapidly iterated upon, or at least was while I was a student. This can be good, as it lets them do things like add React Hooks relatively soon after they came out. It can also make things inconsistent, I went through one of the programs that also taught C, which was taken out at some point. I also notice they have the length of the program as 6 months again after having previously moved to 9 months. The last three were job hunting from what I can tell, it personally took me 4 to find something.

This actually looks similar to what the current company I work at did with me. I got hired and they paid me for 2 months to work on fake projects in their code base with all the other new hires. I assume this was super helpful for techleads as it means the person who's starting on their team has at least a passing familiarity with the code base and languages used. Pretty much everyone who entered with me had to learn PHP, and 95% of them were bootcamp grads (of the remainder only one had previously worked software, and the others were fresh out of college) But this is super expensive to do the way the company I work for is doing it and I can't see many wanting to.

If anyone is considering know my least favorite thing about Lambda was the way the ISA works. The 17% is calculated pretax, but charged posttax.

PS Hi Austin
You're replying in a comment thread about how offering lower rates to small devs is a cynical move that hopes to buy them off for good PR.
Fun fact: This was the only spoken role he ever did. He wrote this speech all by himself. He chose these words for all to hear.

Once again... not knowing how to communicate via a particular medium does not equate to a lack of social skills.

To your point, if a telegraph operator handed me a message I didn't understand, I could just say, "Hey, I don't understand this message. Can you explain it to me?" because that is social skills.
I don't personally think the "hamburger method" is overrated (partly since I often see it criticised), even if it is cliché, and even if there are joke examples of taking it to an extreme.

Feedback is improved by saying what you liked about someone's approach - by giving positive reinforcement to the parts that you liked and distinguishing the parts that would benefit from improvement.

Maybe closer to my rule of thumb would be:

1. give genuine positive feedback whenever it is possible to do so, and negative feedback whenever it is necessary.

2. all negative feedback/criticism should be constructive. It should regard only how things could be improved when related situations comes up in the future (and in an achievable way).

3. on the receiving end, I also think you should demand that negative feedback is constructive - rather than wallowing in the negativity, you can normally train people to give you more useful and productive feedback. If the problem is something you can't do anything about, it's useful to identify that and reflect it back.

People are much more receptive to constructive negative feedback if they know that you're recognising their positive efforts and have understood a more complete context.

I've observed that people who say they dislike the hamburger method will still respond positively to it, compared to bluntly negative feedback.
I wanted to offer alternative advice for those who aren't interested in continual self-improvement across all aspects of their lives.

I believe most of imposter syndrome is self-inflicted and other people's view of you is likely higher than your view of yourself. It's separate from self-esteem. Self-doubt has a way of creeping in and really making you feel like your contributions are not worthwhile.

Take breaks throughout the day and start with the assumption that you're not an imposter and focus on doing your job and being a valuable member of your team without focusing on the "accomplishments" of others.
> I don’t get this either; I’d guess it’s just a personal overreaction.

Maybe some of us frogs can tell the water is slowly getting close to boiling. Maybe we just don't like being bullied and told what to say and think.

> master and slave

Master as in record, not as in "master and slave". There haven't been "master and slave" IDE hard drives for about 15 years now. FWIW, I would give someone a funny look if they purposely used the word "slave" in their codebase or as part of technical jargon, but the word master isn't automatically about slave ownership. That's just incorrect.

for certain people, the point of a market is not to meet people's needs, it is to "function efficiently," so they'll never think a failure to meet society's need is a market failure, that's just "the way things are, money doesn't grow on trees commie!"

I think a ton of reasonable people would do that. Getting a job as a developer is reasonably difficult without connections or experience in the field. Many of us have degrees or years of being a geek before we get our first job. I think that leads to success but it's not a necessary pre-requisite.

I see people coming out of bootcamps from non-glamorous backgrounds who take months to find a job or eventually give up. If companies can explore this talent pool with lower risk, I'd think they could identify some significant potential

As an IC you probably have more time to fully read emails, esp. those from your management chain.

I like to lay out the decisions I'm going to make if I don't get feedback, if possible. That seems to prompt feedback when feedback is required -- it seems the human desire to fix mistakes is stronger then it is to answer open ended questions. It likely gives the reader some context as to why you need the information as well.

I like to have an occasional drink. I suspect that mild drinking on the order of 1 glass of wine per day is not likely to cause harm and would probably be something that a doctor wouldnt feel bad recommending as being generally safe to possible stress reduction health benefits.

That said, there is plenty of research suggesting not drinking is healthier for you and non drinkers are much less apt to diseases like cancer et al. I also think there are plenty of folks who either dont want to or cant stop drinking that would include some doctors that would not want to suggest not drinking at all.

I definitely notice anxiety increases either the day after or the night of drinking. In some ways I could see it causing a feedback loop, but I also somewhat enjoy what I would consider a jolt of reflection during those times. Am I treating people with kindness? Am I too focused on the wrong thing? That said, as Ive gotten older, I think curbing to completely stopping drinking is the trend for me.

But the blood-suckers at Yelp are doing just fine.

They continue to bleed my wife's family business for 100 bucks a month - an extortion fee - otherwise all our reviews are removed (by which I mean all our positive reviews which are all we have) and are replaced by negative / fake reviews.

I cannot express my deep, unyielding absolute disgust and hatred for Yelp strong enough.

I would love to create an alternative, but I just don't see how viable that is even though I'm more than capable tech/coding-wise.
