I'll give that a go, thank you. It's just disappointing that MS couldn't even match Zoom's "annotate" functionality. Which is limited, but actually works.
I used to work really hard. I then requested a small raise of my below-market-average salary, and I found out the people in charge of the company have decided to freeze salaries for the time being. I no longer work that hard.

There are some general issues with leadership training in the military.

You're randomly and arbitrarily in charge until you're not. You're randomly and arbitrarily practicing your group cooperation skills until you're not. In theory you'll get a lesson about paying attention, hopefully not in a career ending manner.

There is a strong push to demonize the kids who do dumb things. But its worth considering they're not evil, just a bit slow on the uptake.

Surely if a kid at training methodically organized the process of unloading a truck that would be valid leadership training. If the same kid organized the chemistry lab so operations run smoother, that's good too. If the same kid organizes group study sessions against an outline of the syllabus that is good leadership. If the kid goes a bit far and study session photocopies change from similar questions to the test, to actual questions from the test... The kid's not necessarily evil incarnate but a bit slow on the uptake about the precise definitions of expectations and an attention getting reaction from the actual leaders is appropriate, whereas blaming the kid retroactively for Iraq not having WMD is just a bit overboard.
if you know systemd, one of its many functions is a single stop systemd controller for all of your infrastructure. Then it also gives you a single way to control storage, monitoring, load balancing and deployment from a single API.

It's neat. It is a lot of moving parts tho. I am just now trying it in a big infrastructure because we have so many bespoke parts that we have to glue together that we might as well try to use what is standard now...
That's ok - just use two different password managers and merge the parts manually on login ;)
Skipping the ones on your list: Ohkegem, Josquin Des Prez, Byrd, Tallis, Palestrina, Monteverdi, Schutz, Rameau, Haydn, Telemann, Bachs who weren't J.S. or P.D.Q. (C.P.E. for example), Liszt, Chopin, a Johann and Richard Strauss, Mahler.

There are enough politicians willing to hold up important stuff until their backs are scratched, that nothing useful would ever get done. And there are enough voters who are uninformed or unwilling to hold those politicians to account at the polls that there are no negative consequences for this behavior.
But will those biggest tank armies in the world have a defended logistical supply chain leading all the way to the English Channel? Or will they all run out of fuel in eastern Germany because NATO air support owns the skies from France to Poland?
How is it any more 'scary' installing an app from a website than the play store? There's plenty of malware on the play store. I'd actually be willing to bet you're more likely to install some malware from the play store than from an apk you get off a website or alternative store.

It's a tradeoff for freedom vs a false sense of security. On android at least, the walled garden approach hasn't seemed to stop malware, the majority of which, comes from the play store. All it's done is teach users to blindly trust apps just because they come from a supposedly trustworthy source. If anything it's taught people to think less about security and the kinds of apps they install. It's on the play store right? Must be ok.
Ooo, solved my own problem.

MacOS has an option for "mouse keys" where one can toggle the keyboard to act as the directional control and click control for a mouse. So if I toggle it on, then I can use the "i" key to act as a mouse click and draw on the trackpad, and "m" key to hold a mouse click until I click "." to release it. And then I can toggle the mouse keys on/off by hitting the option key 5 times.

Woohoo!
I am French and got a top education by French standards (two Grandes Ecoles (the equivalent of Ivy League in the US) and a PhD). I worked really hard to get it, especially to get into the first school due to the completely crazy and unique French system (prépas - two years of suffering taken from your young life).

My son who is 14 had very, very average marks last year. He is a very bright and capable boy so I was really dissapointed. This year he is top of his class with an average mark of 18/20.

As you can imagine, I am all happy and everything and I told him that I am proud etc. - all the right things a parent says.

To what he told me that the marks in the class he is in this year decide which high school he will be admitted in. And he wants to be admitted to the best one.

So he obviously started to work hard to get good marks. That lead to the best high school. Where he will be probably average until the marks start to have a meaning again etc.

I was initially bemused at this approach, so far from the work ethics his father tried to instill in him.

And then, after some thinking, I think he is right (which is a major change in the way I was thinking). Grades are nothing more than a gateway to the future and ultimately do not mean anything more.

So "hard work" when it makes sense to do so.
Kind of a pointless objection. Any car is slow if it hits a wall?
Trans people are required to be on hormones (and even maintain certain levels) to compete in elite sports. See WA and the Olympic committee's rules[0][1]

So yeah, not a transmedicalist, just we have existing frameworks for how to balance inclusion and fairness; there's no open question that needs debate around how trans people can compete in sports (unless you get all your cues from South Park i suppose). The only real debate is around what the levels should be and how to avoid retroactively excluding cis women with hyperandrogenism or related conditions.

Also just as an aside, like a lot of hypotheticals that get forced onto trans people, there isn't any evidence of this being an issue. Trans people just want to live their lives, medicinally transition if necessary, and exist as regular people. The number of people who both chose not to hormonally transition, and are competing in some kind of sporting event where that matters is small enough to be humanly addressed case by case (if there are any at all).

This all seems super cool, but mega complicated. I'm not in the Rails ecosystem at all, so would love someone's assessment.

Is this a new, giant complexity or a nice add-on? A huge mental/development shift or a nicely paved new path to something better?
That's a point on a strategy slide, not the 'angle' that gives them an entry point into the market.

It doesn't make design/manufacture/distribute cars - a massively complex thing - any easier.

It's very hard to enter markets against big incumbents, there needs to be some kind of approach.

I, for one, will be glad if these go away. (Plus, get them out of my feed, youtube. I don't watch them.)

Apparently they're so successful that other people are doing it now. I saw someone totally unrelated to music reacting to amateur music songs.
But you're going to introduce them anyway. Sure, hire the best programmers that you can. But recognize that your rewrite is going to introduce new bugs (funny, your answer to that was "deal with it" instead of "hire better programmers"). And recognize that, better programmers or no, some of those new bugs are going to be security bugs.

Now, that may still be better than the current situation. But glibly saying "just hire better programmers" means you're hiding your head in the sand.
No matter how long it will take they will have to start fresh and whatever experience, knowledge and education they had becomes useless. Much more likely they simply become unemployed and stay that way.

That is an awful lot of time wasted of their lives.

You're getting something that you'd otherwise have to pay for. That is legally considered a financial gain, even if it doesn't hold up to pedantic linguistic scrutiny. Legal definitions are often different to everyday language.
No, the reason this is done is so that details of the law can be hidden in plain sight, to force people to vote 'yes' on the bill (for the things in the bill that will cause them political problems if they vote 'no'). Many lawyers excel at burying the world in a sea of words that are legally binding, in hopes that others either won't read them or can't read all of them due to time constraints.
But then it's not pointfree, it's just anaonymous variables instead of named.
My last job had 43 microservices, one per SQL table. Best part, it was across 8 repos, and shared a core library. Even better, it was python, so imagine adding an additional functions argument to the core library, and updating the caller in 7 other repos, pushing 7 PRs, and it still breaking 3 weeks later in production because you missed a function argument in one of the repos

In terms of usability it was lightyears ahead of Core Data, and it actually worked smoothly with multi-threaded apps without breaking down constantly (as had been our experience with Core Data). It was a joy to work with.
reddit is a karma farm, so find the bandwagon and push it as extreme as possible to get those meaningless internet points.

No. Facebook is moving into that sector with a much more interactive product, supposedly.
Had scoliosis-kyphosis fusion surgery when I was 14 and it was rapidly-progressing. All it did was cosmetic and bought me time until Functional Patterns was invented. Today I am 70% cured. It's basically strength training according to the body's myofascial slings (gait). Flat feet, knee valgus, scoliosis, jaw growth, forward head – it's all connected.

Still, no surgeon in the world would undo (as in chip away the bone grafts limiting my spinal mobility) my fusion.

Actually yes, the only apps I sideload on Android are the ones I develop.
Considering that the first proto-computers were not programmable, I can't help but be skeptical that the first life needed genetic material.

Certainly there were lipid membranes. Maybe there were spontaneous proteins, maybe there was purely-catalytic RNA.

I guess it's also a matter of line drawing. I'm OK with calling crystals life, for example. One should feel bad about breaking up big ones the same as one should feel bad about killing 150 year old lobsters.
As the Wikipedia article on the M1 points out, "The SoC and RAM chips are mounted together in a system-in-a-package design." TSMC doesn't make DRAM chips IIRC (fab process is different), so the RAM on the M1 has to be from one of the DRAM companies.
I used to struggle finding the words for it, then I found this thread[1]. Instead of a long diatribe more or less saying the same thing, I think that article sums up 99% of it.

Generally speaking: I just don't have the energy for the amounts of bullshit that comes with being in this career anymore. No job is immune from bullshit, this much is true--but I kind of hate this cop out because it strips agency from people in minimizing the amount of bullshit they are subjected to on a daily basis.

For me, that means to hell with this career. I very much want to do something different, so that's what's going to happen.

Good luck on whatever voyage and path you end up taking, I genuinely hope you find a spot of zen for you and yours.

EDIT: BY THE WAY--I will probably never stop coding, as there are always opportunities to be efficient in bookkeeping and do some low level automation (in fact I do this already). I've also got a home lab running a few local services and I enjoy tinkering. I'm just not at all interested in writing and maintaining feature/production code for another SaaS platform or "tech company". Not at all. Never again. The idea of even interviewing for one of these jobs has the heart rate ticking up and the jaw to clinch up.

Well those videos on Youtube won't be impacted by this. This law doesn't go after individuals who upload infringing content, rather it goes after the platform itself. It's unlikely Youtube will be affected by it.
It's really not. Generally you're limited to two or three insurance providers in a state and in range of your car accident, about one hospital.
The primary holding of the Supreme Court case that shut down Aereo[1] in 2014 was that their streams were "public performances", the category of violation that is being strengthened in this act. That decision is more consequential in light of this.

>Do you own the company or is your job recruitment?

My job is to make the company succeed.

>I can't see many engineers that are pulled into interviews making that much effort.

Most people do what other people do, whether that is a formal process or an ad-hoc one. It isn't that much effort in my opinion. If the engineers see someone doing that or, to ensure it works, are asked to think about how to improve this and invited to do that with candidates, that will be the way it's done.

This is what we do for each other as colleagues, and it would take more effort to be less hospitable than it would take just to do what we usually do.

We do the same for guests of the company, whether they be partners who visit us, people who came to install our telephone lines, etc. Candidates are also our guests.
I think there is a market for consumers who want a better webcam though. Especially in a post-covid world with more remote workers. I know several people who are unhappy with their laptop webcams for web conferences, but discover that external webcams aren't much better. And these people don't want an expensive mirrorless camera, they just want a webcam with comparable quality to a smartphone camera.
Seeing that humans have a far higher tolerance for copper compared to other animals we can assume that this was indeed at some point in our history a major problem.

For the vast majority of people that use Facebook it's a minuscule sliver of their day, it's not some all encompassing monolith that controls their thoughts, most people will spend a few minutes leaving comments or posting photos, they don't rely on Facebook as a tool to understand complex issues. As I said, this is a cultural problem not a technology problem, you might as well be complaining about Fox News, people have to make their own decisions about which sources of information are reliable.

I never said most criminals get caught, I said not getting caught is harder than doing the shady thing. Just because something's hard, doesn't mean lots of people don't manage to do it.

I'm not going to lie, when I hear "SPA", I don't think "fast"; I think "10s of megs of javascript, increasingly unresponsive browser tab".

It’s literally bi-partisan legislation, so yes by definition some Democrats sponsor it too. But it was introduced by a Republican and the excessive punitive measures on issues that have larger roots in society (punishing people isnt going to make them stop streaming illegally (“you wouldnt steal a car”)) I’m talking about came from the Republican party in the early 80’s, so let’s skip this “gotcha checkmate” mentality please
> I don't think Sam Altman would consider such a person successful.

Then we should first define "success" before continuing the conversation. I worry there might be a bit of a No True Scotsman problem, working backwards from the conclusion of laziness preventing success.

The typical definition of "successful" is almost synonymous with "wealthy" except for popular artists (broadly defined) who for some reason aren't able to earn from their work or achieved popularity posthumously.
But why can't I buy an external webcam, where that isn't an issue, with the same quality as a smartphone camera?

You're right on price, there's definitely a certain nuance to be had there. I tried adding it to my original post, but it only diluted my point, so I kept it about convenience.

You won't ever get rid of piracy, but you can reduce it to negligible levels by offering what people want: a reasonable price & a good user experience. Music offers this currently, and piracy is pretty much a solved problem for them: only 2.9% of piracy is music [1]. I'd argue most people prefer having access to all the music they want on the device they want just a click away, for 10-15$ per month, than tracking down & downloading a good-quality torrent that won't give you a virus. Ad-sponsored versions are also an option here, and broadcast TV & radio's rich histories would indicate that's a pretty good business model. Just don't get greedy & do both (looking at you, Cable TV).

It's has always amazed me that 99% of jobs are for 5 days per week.
As someone who has tried to "build something on the side" for years, I've always wanted a job which was contracted for 4 days per week so I could dedicate some time to my side projects, whilst getting some stable income.

I'm certainly not rich but I don't need a 5 day salary to survive. I'd much prefer to get paid less and work less but this doesn't seem to be an option

I've even went as far as building a website listing jobs with 4-day work weeks:

It's relatively unusual to have a job as a teenager where I come from. So I had to make do with birthday/christmas gifts and pocket money. During my university days my budget was pretty much just rent and food. I could afford a PC, maybe a console for playing games, but hardly any games unless I'd buy used ones.

Movies and TV shows, all pirated. I'd buy some DVDs if I was really obsessed with something.

Eventually I got a job, and streaming / affordable PC games caught up with reality and met me half-way.

If you put a price on everything I pirated before that time, I'm not sure if I could have afforded that even if I stopped paying rent and buying food completely.

Too bad streaming is getting more fractured again. If I want to watch 6 TV shows, I have to subscribe to 5 streaming services.
Uh, that was about a very small bit of two songs that were very similar/identical. The notion that you can't just steal a large part a song and it'll be legal because it's not the full work is a pretty obvious one. Beyond that a ship-of-Theseus type ambiguity kicks in regarding to how much is needed to be taken for it to be thefth, as it does for most things that can be taken apart.

I guess it is worrying that the trial didn't decide if bits that small are protected or not before going on to decide if infringement happened, but I think this is mostly worrying for Katy Perry as it indicates that the hired lawyers are bad at their job.

Wow that sounds amazingly corrupt. I have never experienced anything like that in my life. The school I went to was not a university I think (I'm not sure how to compare the Dutch & US education systems) but they would change and improve courses based on student & industry feedback every year, so while you could get an idea from upper year students what kind of questions they would ask, you would still have to learn it.
