It's funny that people got so mad about that cover because the article within is about how to be positive when going to the gym and doing the exercise that you're able to do. Not going "well I'm so fat already, hope is lost"

For all the fat hate, there are also the people who genuinely think that being obese is healthy. What better way to get through to those people than to trojan horse them with that controversial cover?
It's pretty effective to drop a percent of incoming SYNs.

But if you're behind a load balancer, and the load balancer doesn't know to do that, you can't do it on the origins, because the load balancer will fail the origins and that's not good.

> Google's desire for scale, scale, scale, meant that interactions must be handled through The Algorithms

That's fine when you're a plucky growth startup. Less fine when you run half the internet.

If Google doesn't want to admit it's a mature business and pivot into margin-eating, but risk-reducing support staffing, then okay: break it back up into enough startup-sized chunks that the response failure of one isn't an existential threat to everyone.
Google:Don't be evil. Yes, don't be evil but opaque and inconsiderate. It's amazing how a company as profitable as Google has such a horrible customer service.

You pretty much described Vancouver, BC. One of the lowest average salary in North America, expensive housing, and normalized exploitation of labor. Fake positivity is just the cultural fact of life here and I think it hurts productivity.

We all know that because housing is so scarce, having a job or not can mean you have a roof over your heads or not. It's really disgusting the way they treat workers here. So of course there is going to be a Stockholm syndrome effect here.

Won't pay the market price but want the best. From what I've heard from insiders, they all do "surveys" with each other to fix wages since the 2000 dot come bubble collapse. The Vancouver Model is essentially: underpay your workers, demand the best and increase margins.

Then they wonder why we can't be like Silicon Valley. Most startups here get acquired by pre-primary market and very few ever IPO thus rendering stock options worthless.

It's no wonder that there is a massive brain drain going on and that startups here consist mostly of immigrant workers. I'm sure in some scale the exact same thing is taking place in SV but at least Indian engineers are making far more than what they would here in the Florida of Canada.
Probably not F#, although the programming part might be a lot easier. The problem with F# is that programming idiomatic F# tends to abuse the garbage collector quite a bit. They had to build a new garbage collector for the CLR before F# became really usable, and this runtime abandons that garbage collector for a simpler mark/sweep collector.

This made me think about how different it is to motivate people to exercise. Some people seams to need a full on military boot camp to get exercise done, and some people just totally shuts down when someone tells them what to do. When it comes to management, we don't only need to understand that different people need different types of motivation, but also that something that is essential to motivate some can be directly contra productive and harmful to others motivation.

Yeah, I've always thought it was weird that the X11 window management protocol wasn't extended to accommodate native tabs, so it's always handled in-client.

> I've recommended dtach

dtach is great! I've always wondered why people were so enamored with screen and tmux, when I don't really want a second, full-fledged terminal emulator running inside my desktop terminal emulator—I just want to detach from sessions. Most importantly, though, I want this to be baked in, ideally at the system level, but would settle for dtach-like integration with gnome-terminal; whatever allows this to be done lazily, without needing the foresight to use dtach from the beginning—just like you're not required to specify ahead of time whether you want to use job control (Ctrl-Z) at the time that you start the process.

It's a big shame. Two examples of natural growth with high utility that have just never happened, because we're supposed to stay stuck at the state things were in in the early 90s or something.

I claim "it's OK to not want to change your body" is itself toxic positivity.

Yes, it's "okay" in that you should not experience body or fat-shaming for being obese. No, it's not "okay" in that you are at extremely elevated risks of every health disease - and your quality of life is really terrible in comparison to people who are not obese. It's actually really terrible for the state and for society to normalize this level of disregard for out health.

I think this lesser form of "toxic positivity" inspires complacency and a general victim mentality out of people who for whom their pain is partially or entirely self-inflicted.
This is silly. I love wildlife and nature. I'm against animal cruelty, but these animals don't belong there. Just shoot them.

> But despite Mary Barra saying they're all-in on electric, it's still a gesture at ~20k sold/year. It's partly on the channels: I had to argue with several dealers to get a test drive because many are both threatened by the Bolt and ignorant of it.

With good reason. EVs, thanks to their mechanical simplicity and resulting lower maintenance costs, present a major problem for traditional dealers who are reliant on maintenance revenue for EV engines.

There is also cultural friction resulting from the use of petroleum becoming an identity politics issue for many - with particular constituencies (like auto dealerships and oil companies) having their interests tied to petroleum based vehicle technology. The grassroots expressions of this include the "ICE-ing" of EV chargers [1].

This identity dimension has increased as petroleum gradually loses its actual product advantages (rapid fueling being the most significant).

I’ve been using MacBook Air.

Battery life - I had bigger expectations :) , it’s indeed nice but still seems to run off quicker than reviews and reports I have read.

Compiling - that’s where it really chimes. I actually get better build times than my desktop 10700k machine (both with Xcode 12.2 and compiling same archs.

The hiccups,
As we develop audio plug-ins (which are dlls). it seems that Apple now has extra XPC services ‘sandboxing’ those. (also for native arm64 binaries). So far, so good. but... with extra hardened runtime, it’s not debuggable! so unless we go the SIP off way we cannot debug under it (which is needed since it might behave differently).

I think you should focus the questions on what development tasks you expect.
Since people developing for web will have different hiccups than people developing native macOS or iOS.

It’s still an ‘insider’ machine. :)
Many major apps are still insider or test/tech builds.
Docker, Parallels, Android Emulators, VS Code, etc...

TL;DR -
it’s the bleeding edge. prepare to search workarounds for tiny issues while installing.

having a machine not frying your ‘laps’ and silent (no fan) while out-performing my desktop 10700k in many tasks is quite amazing.

Agreed. In practice though, it might not make a difference. When it comes to funding, appointments to positions and such... we are elbow deep into constructing a culture. Elitist cultures, most histories show, are easy to create. So are hegemonic mindsets, and the two often go together. heterodoxy is rare and hard.. hence harder to maintain in a culture and individually.

I think one of the most important things for a person in a leadership role to understand, is how to understand other people by confidently understanding yourself.
If you can't offer me encouraging advice and honest critique - without being afraid of hurting my personal feelings, I'd be left without a clear direction. Otherwise, you'd be easily able to recreate a positive growth cycle in your team (e.g. significant boosts in morale, productivity, communication, etc.)

False positive emotions are usually the result of someone denying the acceptance of truth. What ever that truth may be.

This is probably going to sound super corny but YMMV. The psychological impacts of denial are devastating. The psychological impacts of love, acceptance and forgiveness are limitlessly fruitful.

I see a lot of HN posts recently on the existence of these superhuman developers with god-like abilities or productivity. Everybody on this planet is human, yet we interact with others intellect or knowledge as if it were a static state. It's not. Every human mind is quite literally, a quantum computer. Anyone can grow their intellect or wisdom or maturity, it just takes the proper push in the right direction and some guts.
Thanks for the summary! Does it work in a team / collaborative environment?

You are getting down voted, but this is part of the problem.

For people skeptical of this point, look at mask recommendations in the US. There are only two reasons that masks were not recommended in February. Incompetence or deception to secure mask supply for health care workers. Neither options inspires confidence in the government.
> Many hours of searching for how Gradle detects changes were fruitless, because it doesn't even try, really. Gradle basically always runs everything, which is why it's so goddamn slow. This is because the entire dependency graph is constructed dynamically on every run,

Something that is not clear from the Gradle documentation is that every task must have its input and output defined (inputFile, inputDirectory, outputFile, outputDitectory property). It is absolutely essential so Gradle can infer which task has to be rerun when, for instance, a build is run. This is usually done for the ‘basic’ task (like build, test etc..) but you have to specify it when you have custom task. This can really make a difference in speed. Another trick is to use the console option (gradle build —console plain) so you will see each task that have been run and their status (if they have be runned, or if they have been skipped due to dependencies)
I am not misunderstanding anything, the fact that Google's own legitimate emails are flagged as phishing by their own filters is pretty telling about the reliability of the whole thing. The fact that you can come up with a plausible explanation to why it happened doesn't make it any less damning.

But of course, they don't flag google.com as a spammy domain and stop all emails coming from it, right?

PS: Im not sure exactly what you are disputing. Are you suggesting their report pointed to a smoking gun on my site, and I'm lying? My experience is not unique. There are plenty of instances of the same type of issue affecting other people in the very comments you are reading.

What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

The story though is about toxic positivity affecting the person putting a lot of pressure on themselves. It led to success but the concern was of the excessive stress and taking a day off for mental health break “sick day” to make up for it.

If you personally don’t like positivity which isn’t fake, then it might be good to dig into that. I have a hard time with fake positivity but genuine positivity is usually acceptable.
Companies that produce compliance vehicles do it only where they have to comply. Hence companies like Toyota that make EVs only when forced to by law. That does not describe GM.

GM sells & markets the Bolt (and formerly the Volt) in all states and provinces of North America. Which is more than you can say for most manufacturers. It's really just a family of Tesla, GM, and Nissan, and of those two only GM and Tesla have taken battery temp management and lifespans seriously.

GM's EV engineering is up there with Tesla. They are not producing compliance cars.

Unlike Tesla they are responsible to their shareholders, and have to pay a dividend. So they make and sell what is profitable. The EV thing, they are limited by battery supplies and market demand, but they are well positioned to do better than the others once those obstacles are surmounted.

The Bolt is a good vehicle. It's not in a form factor I love, but the tech in it is excellent.

Practical Lessons Learned from Inside the Uspto
There are no free speach implications to shutting down trump or parler. Every service in question is a private company. Every service used had a TOS. Freedom of speech does not extend to private establishments. Just as you cannot come into my home or business and be racist, without me kicking you out, these businesses are allowed to do the same. Failure to recognize this is intentionally ignoring a key component of reality and seems to be counter to the claims of supporting a free market that those screaming the loudest always say is important. Your argument is not sensible, it is either naive or intentionally misleading to support a narrative of victimhood.
Well, you can be honest in the facts but the perspective around those facts is opinionated. Business culture pushes a constant optimistic outlook for perspective, which to me is ridiculous.

It suffers from not only being optimistic when you shouldn't be, but also being overly optimistic in situations. I pretty much only experience these behaviors in workplaces.
> It simply lumbers forward, doing its thing. It is to be modeled as a threat not because it is malign, but because it doesn't notice you exist as it takes another step forward.

This is a concept that I think deserves more popular currency. Every so often, you step on a snail. People actually hate doing this, because it's gross, and they will actively seek to avoid it. But that doesn't always work, and the fact that the human (1) would have preferred not to step on it; and (2) could, hypothetically, easily have avoided doing so, doesn't make things any better for the snail.

This is also what bothers me about people who swim with whales. Whales are very big. They are so big that just being near them can easily kill you, even though the whales generally harbor no ill intent.
I was so taken back by this when I joined a huge tech company for the first time. I couldn't tell at first whether people were so miscalibrated that they couldn't tell that the work wasn't impressive or whether it was just a tradition to bullshit all the time. So many of the exaggerated positive statements are about things so minor that they actually come of a bit condescending to me.

There is a massive region encompassing both Instagram filtered perfection as well as gallows humor.

I agree completely that positivity can be forced to toxic levels, but I also see folks drop a plate or get something on their shirt and it’s the worst thing ever and the idea adopting a “whoops, oh well” laughing it off outlook appears to them as forced and toxic positivity. Positivity is great and not letting things get you down is really important if not taken too far.

So what’s the measure for too far versus not far enough? I feel like I see too far and not far enough on equal measure in my peer group.
