> Except most people don't already spend 40h per week reading books or practicing their crafts.

If someone does the average only (40 hrs) and does 7 hours of personal learning on their craft in their spare time - nobody would consider them a workaholic. That's what I'm trying to say.

I work more than the average just like many on this board. Well guess what? I'm more skilled than the average. And I have a wider range of skills than most (from software engineering to marketing). I didn't get there by clocking 40 at each role or at my own businesses. And I probably wouldn't have been able to build successful businesses without going deep into learning for years ahead of time.

To many - the extra work hours are a focus on their craft and learning. I'll add marketing tech skills. Or customer acquisition skills. Or finance.

If I was reading marketing books for 7 hours per week that wouldn't be equated with working. That would be called learning.

And to many people - that's a huge part of their life.

Just because my hobby or thirst of information may include "work", doesn't mean people with knitting hobbies after they clock out 40 have a better work/life balance.

To me - some of my work is a hobby because I find it fascinating and I'll explore different industries much like someone may explore different cuisines in their home chef hobby.

Also - I still have more regular hobbies than most people I know, because apart from some Hacker News time, I don't spend 2-3 hours daily on social media like most people.

I don't get the work/life movement (apart from employer abuse of some employees).

Do you truly enjoy your life or not? Life balance is more appropriate to consider.

Well if you think about it, it's not that hard to imagine how it happens.

First, you have Price's Law [0] which states that half the work is done by the square root of the number of people. This in itself already implies a lot of useless people, especially at a company the size of Intel.

You might also have whole orgs/departments where pretty much everyone is phoning it in, so that would drive it up as well.

The way I see it is the more layers there are and the more removed people at the top are from the work, the greater chance the of useless people being able to go under the radar.

I worked for a tiny tiny unit of Sony USA that was itself once a startup that Sony had acquired. We were 25 or so engineers with our own little profitable(ish) product in our own office in Madison, WI. I once went to HQ in San Diego and couldn't believe how many people there were doing... well, I never could quite figure out what.

Reading your comment gave me a thought... maybe a better way of looking at the difference in salaries is that living in the EU is better value for money than living in the US.

In pretty much all of the EU, even in expensive cities like Stockholm or Dublin, if you earn a salary of €100,000, you can live a pretty decent life. Heck even on €50,000, you can do well in a lot of places.

Good luck doing the same in any of the top 10 most expensive cities in the US.

Just an extended +1 here. I think you're exactly on point.

Intel is definitely in a hole (that they watched being dug below them and did nothing...), but they can get out. They have plenty of time to do so. The only real problems to overcome are their own internal culture and the sheer difficulty of single-digit-nanometer manufacturing. And the second one is easier.

Don't count them out yet. (But do laugh at them. Because they definitely deserve it, and it just might motivate them.)

Who said anything about micromanaging? I simply said the government both won't let Intel fail, and won't let their assets be sold off to foreign companies.

It's easy to say "that's dumb" - but what's your alternative? If it includes "just buy CPUs from insert foreign entity" - that's a nonstarter for myriad reasons.
It's not just marketing but also uses Intel QSV. AMD RADEON has similar feature VCE but its quality is relatively bad and its adoption isn't well, compared to QSV/NVEnc.

no no no... what we need to do is break them down so that each line is a separate library composed of a single function with its own independent dependency tree and test suite, then build another library out of that, all written in a language that compiles to javascript, and publish it to a proprietary package manager.

If we're really clever we can probably get it up to several megabytes, require three languages and have it run from an embedded C compiler written in Webassembly.

Of course, it will only work in Chrome but really who wants to waste time testing in browsers nobody even uses amirite?

Platforms set the policies to fit the communities they want to build.

Twitter allows porn, YouTube, TikTok and Facebook do not

Newspaper comment sections will often moderate the word "fuck", while Facebook, YouTube and other will not

There are hundreds of dials you can tune in terms of moderation to adjust to fit the community you want to build. Apparently the Facebook moderation guide is 300+ pages long.

Parler isn't a "free speech platform" - they pretty much have a ban on porn. You'll find that most other "free speech" platforms also have hard limits (usually _stricter_ than what Twitter allow).

Try going onto thedonald and post one of the photos of Trump with Epstein, or Parler with porn, or Gab and curse Jesus[0] in a reply and see what happens

They're not free speech platforms, they're _their_ speech platforms. They have built the ultimate safe spaces for some of the worst online communities.

Does anyone know how this impacts little snitch?
It's odd that when people from Intel talk about Intel on the Internet or with me in person it's so frequently about high level strategy and C level/Board of Directors politics. The way they're spoken of exhibits a lot of careful examination.

I can't think of another company like that, maybe Microsoft years ago or GE. Is this something I'm imagining or is that a frequent topic of conversation at all levels of Intel?
Correct, they only had to quit being led by their own marketing BS about "higher clock rates are faster"
> First, what Trump actually told the protestors on the 6th was to go peacefully. His plain language has been analyzed by qualified legal scholars and they conclude it does not meet the very high threshold of “fighting words”.

None of the major tests of whether speech is protected apply to the decontextualized plain language of the utterance in isolation, and the “fighting words” test is particularly non-germane here in any case, since it is a test that specifically relates to provocation of an audience hostile to one’s ideas, so you'd have to be either grossly incompetent or intensely dishonest to measure something suggested to be incitement of a friendly crowd to violence against a common enemy against it.

> Second, as we can clearly see, the attacks on the capital were planned well in advance of Trump’s speech and therefore could not have been incited by that speech in the first place.

That's...not how incitement works. It is not the case that once a a breach of the peace has been planned, encouragement immediately proximate to the planned breach to steal the nerves of either those who were in on the plan, or to fire up other susceptible persons in the area to join in, is no longer incitement. That's nonsense.

The only relevance that the prior planning has to incitement is that, if Trump knew about that planning, assessment of intent and reasonably forseeable effect of his words would have to be made in light of that knowledge.

> Third, the violent protesters had already started breaching the capital while Trump was still speaking a mile away.

Again, that's not how incitement works. The fact that a riot or other ongoing breach of the peace has begun doesn't make further immediate encouragement not incitement.

As with the last point, this is only relevant at all to the extent that, if Trump knew of it, assessment of his intent and the reasonably forseeable consequences of his action must be made with that knowledge in mind.

> The people that planned and executed the violence should be charged with crimes and face a jury of their peers.

Sure. That's not exclusive of accountability for incitement, whether by Trump or others.

> So I think there are important facts on the ground that do not support the allegation that Trump’s speech on the 6th incited a spontaneous mob.

No one made the allegation that Trump incited a spontaneous mob.

How to Use Facebook Ads and Still Be CCPA Compliant
No, tech companies aren't disliked for their politics. That's like saying they're disliked for their style of dress (suits were as much a symbol of the detached elite as hoodies are today!). It's their money and their influence on the wider culture by way of spending. It's practically guaranteed to create resentment regardless of what the preferences are simply because it is inevitably a force being exerted on people's lives.

Then of course there are the actual harmful effects of social media on human beings as distinguished from supposed communist infiltration. That generates plenty of resentment as well.

Then there's the fact that in many cases tech companies make products that are ultimately used by employers to track and control their employees ("business intelligence") and which serve as opaque arbiters of things like paychecks, time clocks and tax forms. This isn't Google, of course, but tech companies serve as a mascot for the digital revolution at large, hence the mythology surrounding Bill Gates. Many if not most of the annoyances of computerization get blamed on the tech industry, fairly or not.

> In practice if you don't run MacOS yourself, there's just no reasonable way to support MacOS at all.

I think this is the key insight. I tried to do a similar thing with Windows. The free VM expired every 30 days or so and bootstrapping a build environment each time (even just downloading it) sucked. The build environment is an outlier compared to macOS/Linux/Unix. I eventually ended up paying for Windows. I still couldn't test things like OpenGL inside a VM.
It'd make it a far more attractive move from here in SF, but even then it's a pretty mild incentive.

Airport traffic is unique. There’s no room to loiter and additional complexity in navigating. Also, there’s the expectation of luggage.

That said, airports are very different around the country and so are cultural norms. But generally, you should toss some cash or a token of appreciation to the person driving you to or from the airport.

Netflix logins from AppleTV failing with Code 113
Wasted an hour assuming this was an issue on my side tonight.

It’s not widely reported, perhaps because most people stay logged in all the time, but logins to Netflix specifically from Apple TV 4K are currently failing with Code 113:

“Your Netflix account name or password couldn’t be verified. Please try again.”

It doesn’t matter if the password is valid or invalid.

Netflix Twitter account confirms they are working on a fix: https://twitter.com/Bridom51NY/status/1349495994396913665?s=20

I guess good to know even a company like Netflix can totally screw up basic login. Will be very interesting if they ever explain what went wrong.
Happy to continue a cordial discussion, then! When do you treat searing as necessary for food safety? Certainly we don't want to hold food between 38F and 140F for longer than needed, yet there's a lot of latitude in preparation between a 2" rare ribeye and duck confit.

"Cold pan" here means room temperature, just giving extra time for fat to render out of the chicken skin, but it only takes ~5 minutes on the heat to reach 300F+ pan temperature. It's hard to imagine this is more time in the bacterial danger zone than a 160F sous vide bath?

It’s mind-blowing to me that a 3-year car is considered aging.

Anecdote time: my parents bought a secondhand 93 Toyota Corolla that I inherited and drove until 2011. They continued using it until 2018, and got rid of it. It was still running. A few plastic internals had failed and the engine was rough, but still going. It easily had another 5ish years on it.

I don't really like something like stalebot from both the maintainer and user side. As a maintainer, I don't want a legitimate issue to get closed just because it's not (yet?) a high priority for me, and I let it go for a while.

> How is a three year old car aging?

It shouldn't be; depending on source, average length of new car ownership in the US seems to be somewhere in the 7-9 year range, and average length of car ownership (including cars bought used) seems to be ~4 years, and average car lifespan seems to be around 15 years. A car 3-4 years from new shouldn't be “aging”.
