I'm sure this sucks to experience, and I'll experience it in my due time, but - your kid has friends now, and is no longer wholly dependent on you. It's life. Before cellphones, this person would be lamenting that her kid was spending all her time at the mall with her friends, or off in the woods running around with the neighborhood children.

Improv Comedy classes. In any decent-sized city, there is probably at least one comedy theater, and one or many improv groups at each. Some of them offer classes to get into improv comedy. I can recommend a couple in my city (Charlotte) but if you poke around a bit you should be able to find something near you.
Modern counter battery fire is no joke - and the reason most modern artilery is on unarmored all terrain trucks.

The idea is to deploy, fire a few shots and the GTFO as quickly as possible, as the other side has detected your projectiles via counter battery radar and likely sent their own, all possibly within seconds of your first round being fired & often in an automatic manner.

Its reportedly even crazier for mortars - mortars shells move much more slowly than artillery shells, yet you can platform the origin of their trajectory just as well.

This can theoretically result in the mortar being destroyed by a counter battery artilery shell before the first mortars shell it fired even impacts.

So no wonder fixed artilery emplacements might be considered less viable when cutting edge artillery tech is considered.

A few things I do:

1. I recall to myself that the stuff I do is hard. If I feel like I'm in over my head, it's because most people would find what I do challenging.

2. I also look back on things accomplished. Imposters, by definition, haven't accomplished the things they say they have. Engineers with imposter syndrome worry that their accomplishments are somehow insufficient, but they have accomplishments to point to. There is a big difference.

3. Something I learned from a math professor of mine: ask simple questions about a new topic to check your understanding. The act of asking a simple question can help you validate that you actually understand what you're learning.

4. I tell people "I don't know" when I don't know. I've found that almost always, when you say you don't know something, the person will acknowledge that's reasonable. (That person might still want you to come back with an answer later though :-) ). The education system serves us poorly in training us that saying "I don't know" is somehow a bad thing.

How do you get a Job: Round 2
One day down, another day closer to suicide. 12 days till I kill myself. I decided to do this every day until then. This is to see if there is actually genuine human beings in this world that will answer my question. Yesterday, commenters created a throwaway account just to provide the most mediocre advice in the world.

So I ask once again: how do you get a job?
Well, I accept the "don't", but in those areas I wouldn't feel that breaking from what others are doing is unjustified.

ie. If there isn't a strong justification in doing it, then there is no compelling reason for it to be done in that particular way.
So if you're in the 30% bracket once, you're in there forever pretty much? That sucks if so.

Does LambdaSchool think the thing holding back their developers is that companies cannot onboard new developers?

While many small companies do not pay much attention to onboarding, I'm not sure that this is the actual stumbling block.

I think the bigger problem LambaSchool graduates who've talked to me say is that LambdaSchool's poor reputation and haphazard leadership have left the value of their schooling in question, and that puts them at a material disadvantage compared to people with a traditional college degree. This is a variant of the problem that Udacity and co face: companies recruiting have reservations about that type of education and view it as a risky hire.

AFAIK (it predates my time with Udacity substantially) Udacity discontinued their active placement programs, and generally when they do that (again, I have no special knowledge) it happens because it was neither working nor cost effective.

I think LambdaSchool would be better served using its resources to improve the reputation of its graduates by actually highlighting their work and functioning like a more traditional university; sponsoring open source work and research and showing their graduates and produce such work. Universities get famous and reputable off the back of work like this.

They might also consider not being such shady actors, with a long history of tax disputes and illegal operation. It doesn't matter if state and federal rules are unjust; what matters here is that companies (especially smaller ones) need to maintain the appearance of managing risk. An association with LambdaSchool damages that.

Full disclosure: I don't like the leadership of LS at all. But I have a lot of compassion and respect for the individuals that have taken their destiny into their own hands and learned the trade through any means necessary. I think folks that emerge from these processes are often better members of the workforce than traditionally educated people; because of the tight selection filter (only very talented and motivated people can pass through these processes and succeed, therefore you're selecting from an inherently more dedicated and energetic candidate pool).
> I would point that "free at the point of service" does seem to be one sense of "free".

Sure, and my contention (going back to the grandparent) is that is an illusion. I'd be more than happy to give you a car for free and then just charge you later if you thought you were getting it for free. I want people to continue to be aware that even drugs that are sensibly priced do still bear costs to society.

> which is not an idea that anyone actually holds

You'd be surprised. In fact, the language most people use is "healthcare is free in Europe and elsewhere" because they don't understand how things work. It's not free. Never has been and never will be.

> often that money doesn't need to come from anywhere.

I'd love to hear more. How is it that nobody has to pay for the drug? How does the drug come into existence without money?

Prenatal testing is one of the few solutions to this "post-darwinian" world (not in the usual sense of the word) with its modern medicine that will result in mankind accumulating more and more genetic defects.

Though slightly more ethical from my point of view would be gene-editing to remove those defects, instead of just terminating the fetus.

Edit: Also I'm not talking about down syndrome specifically. There's a long list of genetic defects that modern medicine can correct for and thus removes evolutionary pressure (bad eyesight, allergies, etc.)

AFAIK TB4's spec was never opened up and only TB3 was donated to USB Forum. Not to mention the Spec of TB4 was only finalised and released sometime this year so I seriously doubt M1 would have TB4.

And It is pretty clear Apple implemented USB4, which is basically USB 3.2 with USB-C being Mandatory with optional TB3 compatibility.

> For some topics though, it's not just a matter of time savings. I'm working on a topic now that doesn't really have many useful books, so I'm having to read technical specifications produced by industry groups, which lack context and are pretty opaque. I'm missing having a book that explains these ideas in a coherent fashion.

I know a couple of tech book authors, and this is how they all got started on their first book. :) There was no good book, they did all the work of becoming an expert, and then curated their learnings into a book for others.

3) ahmmm not always. You can make the argument the linux kernel is very mature but the maintenance cost isn't low at all since it needs to keeo changing and is also getting larger and larger.
4) Yes agreed, but sometimes this isn't an option because many companies want to build propriatery solutions (for reasons that may be valid or not). If I am a developer at that project... well I will reuse as more mature code as possible, but then I'll need to write new code as well

Just read through everything. This isn't just a wired RFP... its supercharged.

From Q&A:

> Answer: The provider of the information would need to have approvals to provide the
information to DEA and provide it without additional costs or approvals from the original
data provider. We would need it to be able to be analyzed outside of the host
environment so that we could take the results of the query and create our own reports and
dashboards and provide it to the necessary individuals in the field who could use the data
for investigative purposes.

So... this information is required to be provided to the DEA by law... but apparently some 3rd party entity is receiving it (I'll bet this is for LexisNexus) with apparently no restrictions on how its used and now the DEA is going to pay a stupid amount of money so they can do whatever shady shit they have planned.
The "absolute risk reduction" and NNT numbers seem pretty useless, since they are in a context where people are trying their best to avoid getting infected with isolation, masks, distancing, etc.

Once the vaccine rolls out, people will return to previous habits and without the vaccine a large percentage of the population would be infected, so these numbers look completely different (i.e. absolute risk reduction of at least 45% from 50% to 0-5%, and NNT of something like 3-to-1 to 10-to-1).

People have been trying for years to do what you're describing with gaming-centric Android TV boxes.

People don't want to play mobile games on their TV. They want to watch TV while playing mobile games.
I don't think the article made this differentiation specifically, but I don't see this as blaming technology, but ad-driven companies engineering skinner boxes. It is well understood that advertising companies wreak havoc on children's health (tobacco, body image, sugar, etc). We should hold these companies accountable.

While there were definitely lax restrictions here, there are more factors here (societal pressure, both cultural and literal; the article indicated that study groups and other activities were coordinated solely on social media) that affect one's proneness to phone addiction.

In addition, in the article linked above (and others), parenting is not _the_ bellwether preventative in terms of phone addiction - there are psychological factors, environmental factors, etc.

In addition, there are societal variations across gender that are documented as having an affect on proneness to phone addiction.

Don't let your individual experience override the reality of the situation. This is an issue that is going to require extensive research and potentially regulation.

It's their job to be ready and it's understandable that they were emotional. I did not say that they were not serious. I said, and maintain, that non-one was going to seriously suggest restarting the war or act on such suggestion. No if you tell me that the SK's military command was seriously advising to restart the war then I would tell you that either this is BS or that some generals should have been sacked (and perhaps they were).

This is not normalcy bias. This is keeping lucid and realising, as said and repeated, that war in Korea is not a realistic prospect, instead of going all Dr Strangelove after watching to many movies.

Again, the Korean War was painful for all involved at the time. Today war is simply not possible anymore by any assessment of the situation.

The worst thing that could realistically happen in Korea is a collapse of North Korean regime. This could trigger a limited civil war but everyone would have an interest in limiting the fallout, and this is why people tend to be very cautious about any suggestion of effecting "regime change" in the North.

Why?

Darwin isn't going anywhere, but the rate of change sure has picked up.
Outside the big US tech jobs, software is already a menial job. Currently for quite a lot of money, but not even in the same order of magnitude as Silicon Valley pay.
Have you considered refactoring info into wiki webpages and hyperlinking between them? Then your email can link to that.
How do we know "they caved to pressure" as opposed to "were convinced of the merits of making the change"? Like I said, if enough people don't like this change, they can start their own fork called originalgit or something. It would be fairly easy to backport changes to it. Let the market decide whether the default branch should be called "master" or "main". Or, you could start a twitter campaign about how "main" reminds you of the Spanish colonization of the Americas and all the attendant horrors of that. Worse than the Atlantic slave trade? Maybe! If you can convince enough people that "main" is bad, maybe they'll switch it back.
Not all of the dependencies are ready (most notably, gnutls won't yet compile), so it would be the same result.

And for what I do, the default ffmpeg in Homebrew works fine.

I don't know what you mean by 'you don't have to.' The claim above is that there is a difference between learning how to program and having an onlyfans account. Your response was to say the difference is that the latter makes money. My response to that is the former is more likely to turn it into a career. I don't see where compulsions come into it.

Having a child is terrifying enough. Some folks might be up for the challenge of supporting a child with special needs for their entire life (or a good chunk of it), but I'm not afraid to say that it was a huge relief to know that my son had no known genetic abnormalities before he was born.

There's nothing to be ashamed of here.

> not packaged anywhere

I've gone and packaged it in pkgsrc-wip, which hardly counts as an official package but it's something.

curl http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc.tar.bz2 | tar -xjf -
git clone git://wip.pkgsrc.org/pkgsrc-wip.git pkgsrc/wip

cd pkgsrc/bootstrap
./bootstrap

cd ../wip/poke-git

I'm sure that once poke has its first proper release it'll be picked up by the common package managers (and become easier to build from source).

This is a nice summary, and shows the benefit of working with a publisher, when you are writing a book that is similar to ones they have published already. You get a lot of support, and will definitely benefit distribution-wise later as well. Congratulations to the author - especially on publishing relatively quickly, in 10 months from the idea! And it's very nice to read that all royalties are going to Girls Who Code.

I've worked with O'Reilly and a few other publishers on a proposal that was slightly different to what they usually publish. I went through the same submission process, working with an acquisitions editor, similar to how it happened in this case. In my case, O'Reilly rejected the proposal after a month and half. The feedback in my case was that the book competes with another project, which project got priority. Sure enough, I took the proposal without any changes to another publisher, worked with the acquisitions editor there, had the proposal accepted and we went ahead with the writing process with a development editor.

In the end, working with the other publisher did not work out for me. They did not publish the type of book I was writing, and the feedback from the editors kept nudging me to "shape" the book into the type of book this publisher knew would sell, and would sell well. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like the type of book I was excited to write.

A year and some time later, I'm still writing the book -The Software Engineer's Guidebook[1] - and if all goes according to plan, I'll publish it early next year.

What I've learned with working with a book publisher, is just how involved the process is. Now, instead of taking a $5,000 royalty upon completion of the manuscript, I'm budgeting to spend around $5,000 out of pocket on development/copy editing, cover design and production editing. The things that the publisher would have otherwise paid for. It's a bit simpler to hire professionals these days for these areas thanks to sites like Reedsy[2], which I do recommend for fellow authors self-publishing in finding support on various publishing tasks.

Not the OP but I have similar experiences and am also very introspective. For me, my introspection dealt a lot with what my thoughts were and how I behaved, but I had a lot of feelings that I had suppressed so deeply they never really came into consciousness. Therapy helped a lot with that.
