I’ve used closetbox.com for this in my situation. I’ve had my stuff there for years. They aren’t traditional self storage and keep my stuff in a big wooden box a few floors off the ground in a temperature and humidity controlled warehouse so I don’t worry much about things getting damaged. I have been back several times to drop more things and have verified they take good care of my stuff. Pricing is reasonable. Roughly $200 monthly for a two bedroom apartment worth of stuff in Southern California.
There is no meaningful separation between TRNC and proper Turkey government. TRNC is a puppet government, kind of the same way Crimea government, the one which decided to hold a "referendum" and "decided" to join Russia.

I suppose it depends on where you’re starting from. I started traveling at the end of 2019, and I’m still doing it. I’ve matured in all sorts of ways. For me, there was a lot I didn’t like about my life before I left. The problems that were local I left behind, and the problems that followed me I worked on.
> Almost everything on Facebook has a comment thread attached, in-app, with your friends' comments at the top.

Two things about comment threads. Does everything have to have a comment thread? And this isn't just Facebook specific question, the vast majority of media sites put comment threads below their articles. Clearly, allowing user engagement at massive scales comes with a cost: moderation, disinformation, etc.

On Facebook, I can't choose to disable comments or likes on a per-post basis. They are always there, whether I like it or not. The only agency I have is to change the visibility of the entire post, and even that's not necessarily what I want.

I only post something on social media if I'm willing to engage with others. Comments are ephemeral and very much direct. They are specific writing format. There are times when I want to put something up but I'm not interested in this kind of direct and immediate feedback.

> RSS is inherently antisocial, like watching TV or reading the newspaper alone.

Newspapers, RSS and TV are only "anti-social" to the extent that don't get immediacy of giving feedback in the form of a comment or a like.

You are very much free to share and publish your own opinions about TV and newspapers via different channels. You could even write a reader letter to news outlets if you don't like what they publish. Or you could e-mail your opinions to friends and discuss them via a mailing list.

RSS itself doesn't give you that immediacy either. But you're very much free to make a post on your own blog, discussing someone else's content and have a discussion via RSS feeds and pingbacks. Back in the late 00's, during the heyday of blogs and RSS, that's exactly what happened for a brief while.

The main reasons why social media are popular is immediacy, visibility and short-lived. The massive downside of such communication is that it reduces the opportunity to reflect and make well-thought, nuanced arguments. While immediate communication has it's place, it's not healthy to have that as your only type of communication or learning about the world around you.

In a rare occurrence I agree with the saying "money isn't everything". Even if China paid the whole bill Russia could still "do half". In projects like this knowledge is at least as important and Russia do have a lot, even though it isn't what it once were in space tech and knowledge.
I had a very similar issue when I left my previous job. For some reason I was subscribed to all their repositories (even private ones) and I still kept getting notifications. Luckily it wasn't more than 20 pages, but I had to write some code to automate navigating through these pages and unsubscribing from everything.
I wanted to edit my post to add more details, but since I can't do that here are some more screenshots:

This is the (very consistent) traffic for my scraper that should probably not be on Cloud Run but it's too convenient for me to switch at the moment: https://imgur.com/RYLdp2t

This is the traffic for my web server, but since it's 30 days it's hard to see that within each day I get very large (relative) spikes in the middle of the day. I also had some huge spikes earlier due to some Reddit posts I made that are not shown in the graph. Being able to automatically scale to any load has been a life saver as I've tried to do marketing on social media. Otherwise I'd need to provision to handle as much as the maximum load I expect: https://imgur.com/RL534de

If you're a startup or need to handle random spikes from social media or other unpredictable sources, I think Cloud Run is worth a look. Another great use if for random jobs you might need to run every now and then. Web servers also seem like a good fit due to the fluctuations depending on the time of day.
I have been doing this for 20 years. I used to be good at algorithmic challenges 20 years ago straight out of university - because that is a ,lot of what we did.

I have these I have used "challenging" algorithmic stuff a handful of times in my careerer. Same with recursion, I have used it, but not too many times.

If I do hackerrank or leetcode or something similar these days, it's pretty much luck if I will get it. If I sat down long enough I could work it out, but with a 2 hour time limit, its usually 50/50 whether the answer appears in my head in that time frame.

And here's the thing. I write a lot better code than I used to. I know what is important, and it isn't clever algorithms, it's choosing the right abstraction, and keeping things maintainable. Making the code easy for the next developer to follow. For the vast majority of software roles out there this will be so much more valuable than algorithmic knowledge. Sure knowledge of computer science fundamentals is important, but I think we give it too much emphasis over what really counts.

Basically these are testing for a computer scientist when the job is for a software engineer.
You could run a SHA256 hash of random values and send it to a database in hopes of mining a Bitcoin block with it one day when the input (block hash) happens to match. It's only 2^256 times less efficient than standard mining techniques.

I don’t understand why people think the employer cannot check whether the employee is slacking off.

Maybe what we should prevent is employer keeping months of proof and only bringing it up as inappropriate later, but if the employer uses the camera to tell an employee within 24hrs that he needs to ramp up, it feels ok. Maybe we should impose rules like “24hrs max” and “can’t be used legally, just orally.”

How is the prevailing perception helpful to anyone ?

The scale he uses makes sense and honestly due to the boatloads of useless (or fake) reviews i'm much more likely to take anything below 5 seriously or look at em quicker because it's there that I expect people that properly point out how it was good but what could be better at like a 4 (perfection is rare) and how the service or product failed them at like a 1 or 2.

Until I started travelling with my wife (and now a child too), one main lesson I learned was "you aren't going to need it" - every time I went travelling it was lighter than the trip before!
> Whoa there... Another way of thinking about 'intuitiveness' is in terms of affordances.

Yes, of course. Thanks for bringing this up. I apologize, I went a bit too far there - what I meant was just "intuitiveness" in the sense of expecting people to be immediately able to work well with something they see for the very first time, with no explicit learning or training.

I also don't mean to ignore familiarity with UIs in general - yes, unless you have a good reason, it's a good idea to copy design elements users are well familiar with (if they're not completely insane, or dark patterns). This matters particularly on mobile and desktop. On the Web, everyone is used to websites looking different from each other, but there are still higher-level patterns (like footer with company info, "contact" link somewhere on the site, site logo redirecting to home, etc.).

I totally agree about affordances, and mental handles in general. "Obvious in retrospect" is a great way of putting it - once you know a feature exists, or used it briefly, it should be easy to find it again. Once you familiarize yourself with a bunch of features, it should be obvious where to find them, because they should fit a consistent mental model. In a way, it's the job of the UI - to let the user learn the correct mental model of the application, and how it manipulates underlying resources.

For that to happen though, you as a software team need at least to a) have a consistent mental model yourself, and b) design both "backend" and UI around that model. I think this is one part where we fail frequently, but unintentionally - the developers and the designers don't spend enough time ensuring they have a shared mental model. When this happens, you have UI that may be consistent with itself, but feels off when used, and every now and then you see surprising behavior or incomprehensible error messages - that's the "backend" model leaking out.

Simply recognizing that, let's say, a down syndrome is a genetic defect and something that's generally abnormal does not dehumanize people with down syndrome. Genetic and birth defects are a thing. It's a common scientific term.

I'm not appealing to tradition, I'm arguing for it based on what I've understood about gender dysphoria or the concept of gender in general so far. To reiterate, gender dysphoria comes with all sorts of potential problems, like medication, surgeries, depression, discrimination etc. And that makes me believe that the best way to go about it for parents is to make sure (to a reasonable degree) that the child will not develop gender dysphoria and that the biological sex of the child will match the gender (a social construct, so we can influence it by controlling the environment). Unless you want to argue that what we've been doing up to this point actually makes gender dysphoria more common and the 'new way' suppresses it, or that I'm missing something important, I don't see any gaps in my reasoning.

How often does the nightly news report on the person who didn't go to prison for some minor crime and was able to turn their life around via other interventions?

The safest thing to do would be put everybody in prison, then there would be no crime, but we don't do that. You have to judge the system in a global context. I'm not suggesting that the system is perfect, but measuring it based exclusively on the existence of repeat offenders isn't fair. A lot of people's lives are ruined due to overly harsh prison sentences for minor crimes, and their situations matter as well.
Funny how the Rust community used to regard JavaScript with contempt.

Yet now when you consider how well JS was able to add support for asynchronous programming, it's pretty clear that JavaScript was actually a great programming language all along.

JavaScript was designed to evolve.

Screw companies trying to make money by using developer time for free.
Ideas to improve existing products or even new ideas for complimentary products should be seen as part of your job. While many companies are not open to tech employees bringing new product ideas to the table, many are.

This sort of question only ever seems to come from technical employees, who tend not to interact with customers much. Sales guys -- the good ones at least -- come up with new ideas all the time, and see that as part of their job. You should too.

If you want part of the profits from your ideas, then you need to start your own business and develop those ideas yourself, outside the security of a 9-5 pay check.

Agree, we did similar with Elixir/Phoenix in my past company.

Obviously, the services will still be necessary where Elixir simply isn't the right tool for the job like machine learning or cryptocurrency.
Isn't something like Halon used in data centers for that reason? That can probably be tested without damaging infrastructure.
> It may be that the drivers missed the bear because they were more focused on driving and collision avoidance.

Which would be great if not for the fact that the bear is attached to an overtaking car - one of the things they're supposed to be noticing.

(You could make the case that they were focused on the car itself and thus the bear was an easily forgotten distraction to counter this.)

You are to find fancy runtime-only errors in async functions. Their existence outweighs any other compiler’s benefits.
You’re very misinformed on the situation. Like many cities across the country, special interests successfully ran an unqualified activist DA who fires all of the prosecutors and refuses to charge criminals. And they’re all paying the price as crime goes to shit.

Yep, dating apps didn't work great for me at all because I have the misfortune of being both unattractive and picky, but couch surfing hangouts work fantastically, especially for meeting local people. Walking around at least puts you in places where people can talk to you, occasionally they do. Wearing unique or attention grabbing things gives people an excuse to talk to you. I always choose trains and buses to travel, conversations are more common there. Hostels are a very easy way meet other travelers and get your social fix when you need it. Often times the staff are friendly enough and if you stay in one hostel long enough or visit with them, the staff might integrate you into their social life. Most hostel staff like to travel, too. Becoming a regular at any kind of place will almost certainly get you conversations with staff. A lot of people you meet in hostels are traveling from the same country or ones you are going to visit, so you meet those people there.
It hadn't really occurred to me that anyone does use it as a news source. Looks fairly devoid of real world news to me - just whatever old friends and family on there have bothered to post mixed in with adverts. I suppose I'd have had to engage with some groups at some point. But I suppose that's no different to actually subscribing to RSS feeds.
Being Ballard, it’s an allegorical tale, yes, but not for anything so bland as mortality.

The last line, about worshipping the station, is the reveal. Ballard saw within man a tendency to underestimate the depth of the problems he tackled, and a tendency to end up absolutely enmired within false premises, within artifice - these themes are endemic to many of his dystopias.

My best guess is that this is a parable on exactly those themes.

Do we know that they don't? A dedicated ASIC would probably be spotted by some random person doing a teardown. But a DSP chip doubling as crypto miner when not in use, that could easily escape post-purchase hardware inspection.

(Might be easier to discover it on the design/procurement/supply chain side. Perhaps stock players would find out when investigating their investments. A high-profile brand putting crypto miners on consumer hardware is newsworthy, and news move stocks, so there's incentive to leak the story.)
More likely people will make excuses for us and say 'well it was a different time' even though comments like yours and articles like this are clear exceptions.

There is a certain condescending sympathy that we afford to people just because they lived in the past. It comes from a misplaced desire to avoid anachronism, but ends up committing anachronism anyway.
Would be great if they defined what is a spare part. Somehow I have a feeling that this is just a PR to shut right to repair campaigns down by saying "look we have implemented this, what else do you want?" Reality will be you still won't be able to buy individual custom ICs with their datasheets but whole PCBs at a prices only slightly cheaper than a new product.
But then we forbit selling yourself into slavery - regardless of the payment you receive. So there _must_ be a line somewhere.
I wouldn't consider living abroad for 7 years travelling (unless you change location often?), although I absolutely agree that actually living in some different country for years might deeply change you as a person.

However, I agree with OP that most travel stories (staying a few days to a month in the same place) sound very superficial and I also struggle to figure out why I should be travelling more often.

> When infection rates spiked, did Korean people reduce the time they spend maskless in public indoor spaces?

I’d say “yes but not quite to degree people seem to expect”.

First, I don’t have direct evidence as I stopped working from an office a while back, but I believe that within office spaces—which fall under semi-public indoor spaces I suppose—being maskless outside smoking areas is not tolerated.

Second, I believe people have on average reduced the time they spend in indoor spaces (maskless or not) other than their homes or work, since eating out slightly lost popularity relative to getting food delivered since the pandemic started. (Still, many people do eat out in groups and restaurants have rarely been empty, only shut down during peaks.)

> Are Korean people more likely to wear a mask in public when they're feeling sick?

You’d be hard-pressed to find people being visibly sick in public, this seems to carry a strong stigma. I could maybe spot 1–2 people in a week sneezing/coughing outdoors or in a cafe, and this won’t be someone in a chatty maskless group. Transmission by asymptomatic carriers is the one that concerns me.

I think the above equally applies to Koreans as it does to foreigners residing in Seoul.

(Above is from my perspective only, could be biased.)
