Stop reading productivity porn. Stop worrying about micro-actions and micro-habits and scheduling and “do x for 5 minutes every day.“

You are over-complicating it.

Prioritize and focus on only a few things each day. Once you can do that reliably for a while, then add a little more.

Focusing on and getting just a few things done each day will help you spend less precious brain time on “meta-work”. You’ll feel more accomplished and won’t be beating yourself up.

Make your health a priority. It affects everything else.
Haha yeah. Funny story about his pacing:

I last saw him speak at an event in Cambridge back in 2009 when he was giving an interview on American foreign policy to a church of 500+ people. At one point he spoke a sentence to the effect of "...it was retarded by their efforts to disrupt..."

However, as a speaker, he doesn't fill his pauses with "ummm" or "uhhh". Rather, he stops cold in the middle of a sentence until he has the right word and then proceeds again.

So the sentence instead came out as "It was retarded ... (pause) ...by their efforts to disrupt the..."

I was already nodding off a bit, so imagine my surprise at someone of Noam's seriousness seemingly resorting to calling something "retarded" like an immature teen. The confusion of it blindsided me and had me dumbfounded for what felt like a small eternity before he completed the sentence and I figured out what had just happened. It was a weird feeling. Like the momentary falling sensation when you're expecting one last stair step that isn't there.

I'm confident that it was unintentional, but wittingly or not, it was probably the single funniest thing I ever heard come out of his mouth.
I suggest you research who is behind the site you just linked and what their agenda is.

This has been said alot on HN, but I get the feeling it's quickly shrugged off. The real key is out of band communications and out of scope of the OS.
Then take data science or deep learning which is a science as sophisticated, same there.

We trust experts from other industries so much that we do not tolerate any other view without having a clue what is going on ourselves. The reason is simple, we have our views, they are political and we refer to "experts" to make our views scientific. Just my opinion and I bet that a huge number will disagree again with this comment. But—could I be right? Why not admit that I might be right? Because it's a political topic and your opinion is set.
Ya, this is really it. I bought a Model 3 about 6 months ago. I spent about 3 months researching, test-driving, talking with dealerships. I had zero interest in a Tesla when I started, but I begrudgingly bought one because it was so far ahead of every other car I tried—even ones that were higher price points.
Just so we’re clear, unless I’m mistaken this overlay only affects the target software. It’s not allowing said extensions to trample the “root” file system. The altered fs only applies to a limited namespace.
Well, that is one way to do it. I think it was necessary for HST because it was such a complex instrument that had to be capable of doing many things, and reliably -- because specifically you have to have a mirror of a certain size to make it worth it, and so it calls for a certain level of engineering reliability (and cost).

On the other end of the spectrum, the Mars programs (lately) were incentivized to do the opposite -- cheap, fast, and good, even if some of them fail.

Different circumstances may call for different incentives.
No kidding about the funding. I once asked a PI what they thought about the relation of both Schizophrenia and Autism to maternal immune activation models, like is there any way to distinguish what we are actually modeling. Their only answer was "depends who you are trying to get funding from".

I don't think that fully explains it though, even psychiatric diseases with less funding buzz word power suffer from a similar fate. Diagnosis is a hard problem, especially when all you can really go on is patient self report and a few hours of observed behavior. Although I do think that psychiatry as a field could be approaching the issue better too, a lot of people seem to get stuck in their old ways.
Most interestingly, the upshot of his video is he could find no primary source validating the popular "swindle" story about the building.
What a cool project. Now you have me on the hunt for SIMH docker images for PDP 11 and Vaxen.
I think they’re kind of awesome but so absurdly impractical and expensive, I could never justify buying one. I mean I have enough money to do so, but I’ve never spent more than $4500 on a car and ain’t gonna drop 40k or more for a cool car.

I could see getting your kid a truck so if they get in accident they’re less likely to die, but when my oldest starts driving I’m gonna get her a retired police interceptor. Burly and relatively safe, but way cheaper.
If you're not afraid of exotic languages, I encourage you to have a look at the APL ecosystem, and especially J and it's integrated columnar store Jd.

I have just embarked on an adventure to do just what you describe in... Racket. But it's nowhere to be seen yet.

I'm an epidemiologist and I've been wanting to make my own tools for a while, now. It'll be interesting to see how far I can go with Racket, which already includes many pieces of the puzzle.
ARC shares the concept of non-resident (ghost) entries with LIRS, but uses that to dynamically adjust the SLRU partition (an LRU where probation entries are promoted to a protected region on a second hit). LIRS has fixed partitions and uses a larger history (~3x) to track the "inter-reference recency". This is a much more complex algorithm, but offers a higher hit rate and is more scan resistant. Linux's DClock calculates the "refault distance" which is their similar concept.

You can compare the code of ARC [1], LIRS [2], and DClock [3]
to see how similar they are.

ARC obtained a lot of awareness but the hit rate is not that great. It is modestly better than LRU, but very wasteful in metadata overhead. LIRS is much better, except it is complex and the paper is confusing so almost all implementations are broken. DClock seems okayish by borrowing LIRS' ideas, but I think it performs worse in most comparisons.

"Tesla has one message for customers and investors, and another one for legal authorities."

This is such a cool idea. As an ex-lawyer turned developer, I wish I had thought of that.

In my career, I probably wrote 1000+ corporate contracts, but most of those were about +/- 8 types of contracts with 80% of clauses repeated.

Me (before knowing programming) and most organized lawyers I know, just had a huge "Clause Database Word File" where we dumped common clauses that we just copy/pasted when building new contracts.

I believe there are a lot of opportunities to make software for lawyers that automate those things.

I'm glad I made the transition to programming, but it would have been awesome to know those tricks when I was write dozens of those contracts every week.
If you see people as defective rather than simply different and you try to force them to "be normal," you may be actively damaging them and creating a lot of the ways they are dysfunctional.

I am suspicious that some fairly large portion of problems in people who qualify for various labels is rooted in the world actively breaking them rather than some inherent shortcoming per se.

> If it was the choice between Musk's offering and a car from a bland manufacturer without an asshole at the helm that still did everything the Tesla did?

I think most people know what Elon Musk is like. He promises a lot. He delivers a lot too. But his promises are always optimistic and running ahead of delivery. That's especially true on timelines, but true on other matters like functions or capabilities as well. I think most people take that into account when processing his statements, and mentally subtract some of the over-optimism from them.

> the US was hard-hit, but the US will be one of the first countries back to normalcy, and the rest of the world will quickly follow.

Though I very much like this optimistic take, this is a bit revisionist.

Specifically, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Taiwan, Australia, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand and a few others (including parts of mainland China) have already returned to “normalcy” in that their economies are growing and that all have high public confidence that contagion has been controlled.
Let's not forget that data & community are the most important currencies for these platforms. More and more companies are open-sourcing their front-ends.
We need a standard, government definition for what “full self driving” means.

Can I put my blind grandmother in the car, remove the steering wheel, and send her on her way? Anything less is an important step in the process but not “full self driving.”

The problem is...it’s reckless to assume that people will give any attention to the road if they’re told that their car is “full self driving.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virulence is how harmful it is, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infection#Contagiousness is how readily it spreads. They’re related because a lot of the harm a disease does is a side effect of using your body to become more contagious (e.g., coughing due to chest congestion).
Haha thank you. For context, we launched on iOS, Android, and web within the same year, which has helped our marketplace grow, but we’ve since realized that we are outgrowing our engineering capacity (all done by me, a proud but headstrong full stack engineer ). Definitely maintaining a high sense of UX quality is one of our priorities, especially as we are trying to hire and dedicate better engineering resources to this challenge. Please let us know if you have specific feedback on the design!

In FAANG it’s usually very hard to come in at the higher levels (6+). You almost certainly won’t be offered a higher level than what you had at your previous company. If so, it’s almost certainly another FAANG and you have a damn good reason why you should be at a higher level than you currently have.

Even if you managed to get in at a high level it can be very hard to actually operate at a higher level when you’re new at the company. A lot of people fail to ramp up.

Don's rebuttal; "I am often told that the furniture is not comfortable, and in that not functional. The source of the question is in the overstuffed bourgeois Victorian furniture, which, as I said, never ceased. The furniture is comfortable to me. Rather than making a chair to sleep in or a machine to live in, it is better to make a bed. A straight chair is best for eating or writing.

Does the government collect detailed information from families of autistic individuals? (e.g. where they lived, food they ate, products they used, chemicals they were exposed to, etc)

I feel like if this were caused by something recently introduced to human life (within past 100 years), we should be able to at least narrow it down using big data and deep learning.
If you have a master table with detail records, access just handles it, you don't have to do any SQL yourself to be able to just have a form that accesses them and lets you do all the CRUD operations.

The Taycan has a standard CCS charger, it would be pretty surprising if that stopped working given how pretty much all non-Teslas have it. What self driving suite are you talking about? Pretty sure the Taycan just has active lane keeping like a tonne of other new cars.
Mmm. Redox has a microkernel like Minix, but written in Rust, so that it's potentially safer or at least easier to reason about what might be unsafe and why.

Haiku is a conventional monolithic design, like BeOS, in fact arguably more so than shipped releases of BeOS because BeOS had a separate TCP/IP stack which made its network performance abysmal, Be Inc. had been working to fix that by just plonking the entire stack inside the kernel, and Haiku copies this approach. Like BeOS, Haiku is written in some specific dialect of C++.

So the main similarity is that Haiku also hasn't shipped a version 1. Although that's maybe more striking after 20 years of development than Redox's 5-6 years.
No joke. It was one of the first apps I used and in non-European languages its leaps and bounds ahead of most of FOSS today that can't even do RTL right, let alone letter merging etc. And doc files work perfectly with all the modern editors too.
Tanenbaum-Torvalds Debate
I personally would not emulate a game that Nintendo is currently selling in a readily-playable form (unless I owned it already). Used games don't count, because those a) don't send any money to the original devs and b) become increasingly scarce over time.

The problem is that in practice Nintendo only makes a very small portion of their back catalog available for purchase at any given time. The only Zelda games from previous generations that I can play on my Switch are Zelda 1, and (soon) Skyward Sword. No others are available.

If Nintendo made their whole catalog available for digital purchase (or even better, as part of a subscription) then I wouldn't emulate any of it.
I feel like the HDF5 libraries could be helpful here if you could figure out how to get compatible compression.
The option costs $10,000. It does not work as claimed and there is no reason to believe it ever will. People have died due to the system malfunctioning. Others have died due to falling for the "brash optimism" and taking their hands off the wheel. Experts outside of Tesla have been crying foul from the day the feature was announced.

It is not benign and it is not excusable.
I use it a lot but it really breaks the tidyverse, which makes using R actually enjoyable. Why aren’t these other libraries (not in R; I’m talking the others in the benchmark) consistently as fast as data.table? Are the programmers of data.table just that much better?
This is misinformation. Tesla continued the letter with: "Please note that Tesla’s development of true autonomous features (SAE Levels 3+) will follow our iterative process (development, validation, early release, etc.) and any such features will not be released to the general public until we have fully validated them and received any required regulatory permits or approvals."
Your argument strikes me as tautological in that you've created a hypothetical sad situation and are arguing that because it is sad we should change our behavior.
I think it's probably worthwhile to think about if the situation could actually occur in our world.

Otherwise, why not construct the absurd thought experiment: what if the intern that got laid off won a bunch of money and didn't have to work? Piracy is obviously moral and great because the intern is now rich.

Obviously this wouldn't happen to most interns given how the world works (losing your job is bad). Thus it is a bad thought experiment.

Similarly, if having a game pirated leads to an increase in sales, this is a bad thought experiment.
True about the product. Highly dubious about the social. While there are enthusiast communities for every kind of car, Teslas also get a lot of hate for various reasons. In my view it’s the biggest obstacle (that and the ho-hum design).

I will probably buy anyway due to no other EV being even close functionally, but it’s a vulnerable position. Once platform-halo-bearing competitors like Apple enter the market and close the product gap, it’s a whole different ballgame.
If lying to take someone's money is not exploitation, I don't know what is.

Thank you!

For context on 1. We do indeed have both resale dresses as well as mom and pop dress boutiques with brand new inventory on our platform. The latter arose during the pandemic, as many of those shops unfortunately closed down and had to find a way to integrate their inventory online. It’s definitely a tricky UX challenge, to communicate the availability of both types of products on one platform. On this topic as well as the FAQ/dress cleaning subject, taking inspiration from how streetwear marketplaces is a great suggestion.

During your time at the exhibition hall, did you see any trade shows that had more overall activity and interest among all their booths? I'm curious to know if there were things done by event organizers with theme or type of event that could help make a tradeshow be desired or enjoyable.

No. Not really. I suck at all these FAANG interview questions. I think I barely passed my Google interview. And I still got promoted L5->L6 after only 2 years at Google.

I think that 99% of the interview questions are overkill and don't reflect the actual demands of the job, or the metrics by which you'll be measured. If you're a hard worker, a team player, and write decent code, you'll probably be fine once you get your foot in the door.

And yes, having Google on your resume opens doors.
This right here. If people look at the actual study, they'll see the number of caveats and various exact conditions where the study proved something, whereas the media tends to pretend that those caveats or conditions don't exist therefore, the study works everywhere. That's why people don't trust science, "oh, its probably wrong again".
