Thanks. Will fix!
I am not sure if there was a missunderstandig:

I know of people who researched topic X with the assumption to find Y. But they did not find Y and rather found out that their setup was insufficient to provide meaningful answers. So they wrote and explained about why this setup did not work for the original question and published it and moved on.

And this makes sense, because they achieved novel information the next student could improve on. So published about a dead end, or not?
I think you completely missed the point. Really not sure what independent thinkers have to do with prisons. Some of those may be thinkers who got into prison, but that’s a really small fractions. Prisons are filled with mostly non-thinkers who got there after their impulses led them on a wrong path.

> Compare with an upper class upbringing which tends to come with a sense of confidence and entitlement.

> So imposter syndrome may not be so much about an unrealistically low feeling of competence, but about not having internalized the performance social signifies of confidence.

Well... I don't know if imposter syndrome is so black and white. All I have is anecdata; I grew up upper middle class, went to some great schools, and held some really wonderful jobs (especially my current job, which is my dream!) - but each day I wonder if today is the day they realize just how little value I bring to the team. The frameworks I've built always need some kind of improvement and when my coworkers look at code, they just debug it in their minds almost instantly. Me? I need to manually step through the debugger with most of the bugs I work on. Management will discuss new features with our team and I'm still trying to figure out fixing the technical debt from the last feature. I've held this job for quite a while so I guess I'm doing something right but holy cow there's no way I'm in the same tier as my coworkers.

I dunno, I'm not saying that I disagree, all I'm really saying is I think there could be more that goes into imposter syndrome than class upbringing. It's a dissonance of knowledge and belief: I know I bring value, but I sure don't believe that I do.

Mastery is not about learning the rules from a book. It’s about learning the rules that no one wrote down, and about learning which things that were written down aren’t rules so much as guidelines. (This is the exact story arc of probably 30% of all martial arts movies).

The quick hacks are quick. That’s why they are so addicting. You have to look at the bigger picture. Is this the third time you’ve used the same quick fix? Then there’s a deeper problem. Does this problem keep happening in production? Then it’s better to take a breath, fix it correctly and once and for all, rather than to be randomly pre-empted by this issue for years to come. Those liabilities stack up, and eventually form clusters that make us look like we can’t do the job.

And last but not least, does this person really keep their promises to come back and fix things later, or is it just pretty words? If Cat Stevens were a coder, he’d write a song about all the someday lies developers tell themselves and each other. Father-son neglect dynamics have nothing on code rot.

TSMC succeeded because of the chip and high-quality talents on the island. It was not setup to become a high-value precious.

And the logic also easily break down, if anyone bother to think about the consequence. I.e., put a high-value target in a contended geographical location, just makes the conflict more desirable for the aggressor.

Sure the protector would be more concerned if the target is lost, but the value of acquiring that target suddenly becomes way more attractive, in comparison to the potential loss to the protectors.

This is nonsense. You’re saying Amazon should keep paying wages so people can use those wages to shop at Amazon. When put that way you can see it makes no sense.

The only thing that matters is that as we increase productivity the benefits are relatively evenly shared. If a 4 or 3 day week becomes normal for everyone and we still output the same or even more, that’s great.

>as an aside, do insurance companies significantly alter their policies when such a cat-5 hurricane is imminent? What preparations would they make in the face of that sort of event?

You cannot retroactively alter a policy, for obviously good reasons. The main preparation policy-wise is that insurance companies do not knowingly write new policies in the affected area when disaster is ongoing or imminent. Reinsurers will also avoid writing new treaties (which is what a standard reinsurance policy is called) -- for these reasons the Florida cat reinsurance market is typically dominated by policies that incept on June 1st and run to May 31st of the next year.

Internally, the companies will start modeling what they think their potential losses will be almost immediately, as investors expect a fairly quick turnaround on getting initial loss estimates out the door.

There's a fairly new paper here, albeit not yet peer reviewed, on the promise of maximum entropy models in an actuarial setting. The appendix has references to the earlier papers: https://www.casact.org/pubs/forum/20wforum/07_Evans.pdf
I think the point is that if you can't install Linux running natively, you can't escape "undesirable behavior" by the Apple-supplied OS. For example, if you want to ensure your laptop isn't sending Apple information about what you're transmitting over the network, running a VM sandbox in OSX doesn't eliminate that possibility.
"Can we make a friendly Libre Desktop operating system with focus on simplicity, minimalist elegance, and usability?"

The author mentions "Decoupling of the hardware from the OS and of the OS from the applications"

I've been fooling around with Raspberry Pis, and like the idea of bare metal programming. Unfortunately, it isn't so easy, because something like USB requires a software stack. How much better it would be if all the hardware was memory-mapped!

Then we wouldn't need an OS at all if we didn't want one.

So, I'm still waiting for Raspberry Pis to be what they should have been in the first place. Pi's seem to be going the wrong way simplicity-wise.

Maybe one day someone will come up with a RISC-V machine that satisfies this niche. Such a machine would be many many years away, though.
> The U.K. ranks 4th worldwide for international travellers per capita, and New Zealand 38th.

> Sure, source https://www.citypopulation.de/en/world/bymap/AirTrafficPasse...

If you order that list by ‘per capita’ NZ is way above the UK, 13th versus 24th. I think you have misread it and got the absolute number of travellers.

> The degree to which the UK is connected to the world is just on a different scale to New Zealand.

In absolute numbers, yes, per capita, no. With covid the thing that matters is people coming into contact. The ratio tourists/population matters. NZ has a lot of travel and relative to it’s population, a lot more than the UK. And NZs population travel a lot more.

> I don’t believe the tourism argument holds up in the slightest either.

How so? Tourists bring in covid.

If you look at things relative to the population, NZ has a lot of people moving a lot of the time.

NZ may be a small, far away islands (it’s bigger than the UK geographically), but the approach NZ used wasn’t invented here and is not novel. It was copied from others that had success. Interestingly, a lot of good policy came from South Korea. South Korea copied it from the NHS.
Others have had good results too, NZ is not alone at any stretch and did not pioneer it’s policies.

I’m sure there are other factors and many of them. However the UK leaders have not done well and have contributed hugely to the problems. The ignoring of advice from experts is incredible - why set up systems if you don’t want them? They continue to ignore the most basic advice and get exactly the outcome one would expect, covid.

I believe he currently uses an AMD threadripper setup - there would be nothing stopping him using something like the PineBook Pro as a "dumb terminal" and having his builds done off-machine. It would mean that he is dependent on an internet connection, but it wouldn't have to be a fast one as he would only need to send deltas to the build process. (This would be on top of other mechanisms like CI.)

The PineBook Pro has quite a reasonable keyboard, is quite light and gets decent battery. He could reasonably use it all day without issue. Re-flashing it can be as simple as throwing a new SD card into it, which could also help in terms of security whilst traveling (re-flash it when you get to your location).

I would very much tell him and other people to seriously consider such a machine.
Because requiring a warrant means due process; it's part of the job of the government.

Buying data is using tax payers' money, to buy private data of the tax payers.

It's entirely reasonable that tax payers are upset about this.

> I think, if the information is too private to reveal to the government, it is certainly too private to be in the hands of an unaccountable unelected unauditable corporation in the first place.

I disagree. The government can require the information to be revealed if there is due process; it's never totally "not available to the government".

Corporations don't work for the people; the government does. Corporations cannot impose a rule on people by violence. The government can. They are fundamentally different; I don't see why one having the data leads to the justification of the other having the same unfettered access.

People can be upset about what the government is doing, and impose restrictions to its access and power, even when what it did was technically legal. If the government is as frivolous as corporations can be and act, it's dangerous and worrying.

They do according to some sources [0]. By all accounts they have the majority when you breakdown phones by brand (as compared to platform). By every account they’re nearing 50% in the US.

Also, among the US youth market they have close to 90% [1] so fortunately the general share will keep rising. (I say fortunately because I look forward to the US being able to regulate their policies.)

> if you change your dependency

Depends on what you mean by changing the dependency. Let me lay out the scenario in more detail.

The program is still exactly the same. It asks to be pointed at a fluid sim program, and then uses that for some of the math it needs.

When it was coded, the only dependency it could use was GPL.

Now there's a new non-GPL dependency it could be pointed at, with the same API.

Now it's possible to run the program without using any GPL code. Does that make the program no longer GPL, even though it didn't change?
I suspect there are a lot of us in that boat, with 5-to-8-year-old Macbook Pros. Apple really missed the mark with the intervening generation, by removing useful features and replacing them with features unattractive to developers.

Maybe this big leap in processor / thermal / battery life (and a revision back to proper keyboards) will be enough to get us to switch! I think 64GB (or at least 32GB) would be a nice sweetener.

Yeah! Breathing meditations are definitely the right place to start, but there’s really rich stuff after that.

You can kind of view Buddhism as a three step process: the breathing/physical meditation techniques are for learning to direct your attention, and calm yourself down enough that you can pay attention to bodily sensations/your feelings. The next is getting acquainted with your patterns, identity the maladaptive bits, and use various meditations to train your mind into different patterns. The final phase is the more woo-sounding stuff about ego death and no self, and I don’t pretend to have a handle on it.

Some great introductory books: “Radical Acceptance” by Tara Brach, which is pretty much anti-self esteem. This was personally the most useful to me.

“Peace is Every Step” by Thich Naht Hanh is a great intro, too, followed by “The Heart of the Buddha’s Teachings.” If you want something that is minimal woo, “Buddhism Without Belief” is pretty great.

Also, the center I’m peripherally involved in is The Florida Community of Mindfulness, based in Tampa. They’ve moved all of their programming to zoom since the pandemic. Practicing meditation with other people is probably the most useful thing you can do. No doubt there are other centers near you, and it might make sense to invest in them, but might be worth watching a couple of saved dharma talks, or tuning into a Sunday service (10am EST). The teacher at FCM, Fred Epsteiner, is very well regarded, though. Tbh I get kind of triggered by older white dudes giving me advice, but lots of people like him. :)
I think this is an excellent point. There’s a big difference between large problems and wicked problems. Large problems often benefit from being broken down; wicked problems may not. They may need to remain a system and often require a wide variety of expertise.

I think you also have to consider why you are working on the problem. Is it genuinely to “solve” it? Or is it to think it through so you understand your own position? Is it so you can advocate and work within or against a system?

All of those have different tools. As a side note, almost all start with research.

The example question has a lot of effort put towards it. From philosophers, government think tanks, NGOs, novelists, etc.

And a lot of applicable real life situations — from Brazil remaking their currency to stop rampant inflation [0] to Chile’s efforts to rewrite their constitution [1] to the UN’s nation building work in Somalia [2].

With all that in mind, my personal efforts at this kind of thinking often revolve around building a defensible point of view with the goal of meaningful participation. I start by collecting and reading material, using progressive summarization, and once I get to a point of view, I try to find and join allies.

And then I see what comes next.

>> but it's not clear where that line should be drawn.

For civil libertarians it is very clear where the line is...

It is certainly not criminalizing every person that wants to make a living in a business deemed by a despot governor to be "non-essential" while similar businesses that happen to be political allies or have higher priced lawyers are allow to remain open (for example Walmart could still sell Lamps, chairs, tables, etc, but Acme Furniture Store was forced close (True story from PA). Or Amazon was still allowed to ship online orders, but Jane Doe's Knickknacks was not allowed to even sell online during the pandemic....(true story from NJ))

For Civil Libertarians livelihood can not be separated from Life, and Life with out freedom is not life at all. Simply taking in oxygen and exhaling CO2 is not "life". Life is living, interacting, being productive, enjoying the fruits of our labor, etc.

Life is not about existing, people that believe that are some of the saddest people on earth.
