> On the other hand is there a part of tolerance where you embrace that your partner is not same as you, and that from time to time it would be nice to learn few things about her/him?

Yeah, sometimes.

But if you actually want to accomplish that with any regularity, and not waste a ton of time on movies that one person has to tolerate and the other person only picked on a whim, you need to discuss the movie choices. Simply alternating is still a bad plan.
Not related to the code itself, but this is the most dystopian thing I've seen in a while.

Licensing aside, it's just a computer OS at the end of the day. If you can get the right hardware virtualized there should be no issues. There are premade images that make it really easy to run macOS in a VM without having to go in and change a bunch of configs
ORM’s and other frameworks should come with an “eject” command that once you run it, gives you all the raw SQL/generated config/etc etc.
I'm not talking about "dirty checking". I'm talking about "automatic dirty checking". Take for example this code I got from this article[1]:

SessionFactory sessionFactory = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory();
Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
Person person = session.load(Person.class, 2); //loads Person object for id 2
person.setAge(32);
tx.commit();
session.close();
HibernateUtil.closeSessionFactory();

It results in an updated age for the person in the DB. However, EntityManager was never directly notified about the change in the person object.

One of my coworkers moved to Vancouver, WA a few years ago. No income tax, and Portland is just a few minutes away, where there’s no sales tax.
Sometimes. Sometimes not. I've seen both sides.

My anecdata:

My road rage was definitely my body and responded to therapy that targeted the sensations in the body.

My anxiety was not. It was a way of thinking. Ruminating thoughts. Cascades of potential disastrous outcomes. I needed medication and I needed to talk to a therapist.

She seems unqualified to be giving out misguided medical advice in such certain terms. Minds get in the way of comprehending other minds, and broad statements are difficult to make truthfully.
I noticed as young adult that I didn’t really worry or consciously stress, but my body had somewhat predictable reactions to situations that I would realize, in hindsight, were highly stressful. Those physical reactions sucked, and as they got worse over time, it really concerned me.

At some point I was encouraged to go to CBT, which I did, but honestly it made things worse. I became hyper aware of how anxious I was at any moment, and the more I noticed the more it worried me.

Years later I tried mindfulness meditation and found that it helped. But also, I finally hit a kind of turning point where I just realized that there was nothing I could really do about anxiety or the physical symptoms that came along with it. I decided to mostly try to quit noticing and thinking about it. And that really helped.

I still feel stress and anxiety symptoms sometimes. They still suck. My conscious mind is still the last to recognize what’s going on. But, overall, I feel I can handle a lot more stress now than I could ten years ago without it ruining my quality of life, and more importantly I can recognize the stress, not worry too much about it so I can get through it, and then rest and recuperate (as soon as possible) and recover much quicker than when I was younger.

I’ve concluded that the best advice is to learn not to worry about things. Unfortunately that’s easier said than done, and I’m not sure I have any advice on how to learn to do that :/

Same in Belgium, where over winter the rules about whether you could see someone or not took into account your age, their age, whether you're indoors or outdoors, how many people you and they have seen that week, whether you are single, whether it's Christmas Eve, what time it is and whether you need assisted care.

Oh, and the rules are different if you want to use their bathroom.

I'm not making any of this up.
This is exactly what I want to build and think it's one of those foundational building blocks that we can't believe we lived without. Files stored on IPFS with their hash being their universal ID. Metadata would be associated with that IPFS hash such as name, maintainer, description, etc. The storage would be a smart contract on Ethereum with the key being the IPFS hash and the value being the current metadata. It's basically a distributed web app store. Throw on a Sybil resistant voting mechanism and you have a discoverable shared and programmable dataset of applications and modules.

If a project like this exists I unfortunately haven't come across it.

Current laser com systems are getting multiple bits per photon - it seems that the communications field will keep pushing the limits until there is simply no business case, and then push some more.

No, a swarm of autonomous actors in a decentralized system will continue to support it so long as it's profitable and legal (or at the very least, easy enough to get away with). Those are two huge assumptions for e.g. Bitcoin which has very little inherent value as a tool and is a relatively fragile as a value store. Should the internet be fragmented along national/political lines, I imagine BTC will lose most of its value over night.

> why not create a separate "Signal Wallet" app or something? Although even that won't help the fact that it will tarnish the "Signal" brand in the eyes of many.

Signal is not a startup looking to get acquired or a private tech company fighting for market share. It's a non-profit foundation which develops software to advance certain goals. It's not just trying to please its users to make profit, it's trying to change society.

This is actually the reason Signal was able to disrupt the messaging space at a time when e2ee for messaging was unheard of in mainstream apps. They make design decisions not based on what makes users comfortable, but what they think the world needs.

Maybe they're right and maybe they're wrong, but I think their core motivation is a lot more trustworthy than that of WhatsApp or any other major tech company.

No IAEA inspections means Bibi can once again entertain the UN with cartoon bombs without getting any serious headwind.

Throw in IAEA inspections and that whole rhetoric out of Israel becomes much less believable and might even reflect badly on Israel itself when the IAEA inspections show them to be not true.
Not sure why Reno as opposed to Las Vegas. Reno's closer to Tahoe but Vegas is closer to a bunch of recreational areas. Neither city has a real downtown in the sense that SF or Austin do as far as I've ever seen. So you're almost definitely living in essentially car-dependent suburbs if that's an issue. (Though you often are in either SV or Austin anyway.)
"it seems unfair to only mention Iran’s threats"

If that's unfair, then it is also unfair to leave out the fact that the Iranian government has murdered innocent US citizens and funded organizations that seek to murder large numbers of innocent US civilians. We should also mention the two countries differing views on religious freedom and women's rights, or even their differing views on the others right to exist.

Israel is built on the suffering of the Palestinians, taking their land and homes by force in the 1940's, but why didn't Iran take those displaced people in if they were so concerned about them? Or any other of the loudly protesting states that surround Israel? The answer is that the Mullahs only really care about holding on to the power they have, and just like the elite in the US like to use racism to distract from wealth inequality, so too do the Mullahs use Israel to distract Iranians from the fact that Iranian government isn't actually very good at its job of providing a peaceful, prosperous life of freedom for it's citizens.

It seems a real pity that such a wonderful people like the Persians must live under a feudal, fundamentalist religious dictatorship in the 21st century. That must really suck.

My guess is that if there is ever going to be an Islamic Reformation, it will happen in the US or Iran, and it will make the Arab Spring look like a blip on the radar, and it will be wonderful.
> The difference in HD to 8k is 17x the bandwidth.

Not practically. NetFlix will just compress it down to 3Mbit anyway like they do with 4k, but be able to call it "8k content!" and (probably) charge a premium for it.
Worst CEO I can think of. Never seen such incompetence and greedines combined in one entity.
>But there is nothing democratic about today's Iran. Theocratic fascists on the other hand need an enemy to distract from complete failure of internal politics and collapsing economy due to spending all their resources on war and funding criminals and terrorists abroad.

I explicitly said they weren't. You're preaching for the choir.

>Not really. They have nothing to quarrel about.

Democratic states still have geopolitical interests. The interests of Israel are vehemently opposed to those of Iran. Thus, Iran and Israel will be in conflict. In fact, foreign policy-wise, democratic states are barely different from dictatorships.
So most countries can acquire a world class cybersecurity capabilities.

Massive data sets were mobilized for covid-19, and I advise anyone politically exposed that it would be unwise to consider their health records a secure secret, and to challenge the security controls on any private electronic information.

If you really have a privacy risk, you already know how to avoid these issues, but everyone should understand and always assert their privacy rights, because there are a lot of parties interested in taking them.
> I also believe that he had a motor in his bicycle

Is that it?

Just literally someone saying they think he had a motor? Nobody has any idea how it worked, what it looked like, any evidence?

Surely there's something more to this story?

I'm sure the guy doesn't have an ounce of sportsmanship in his body but there is zero info here.
The whole thing may well be dystopian.

That said, you don’t seem to have looked up what test to release actually is. It’s a scheme for travellers to get out of quarantine early. So no, we aren’t ‘all’ captive to ‘test to release’—we (inhabitants of the UK) are captive to many other regulations though!
I would suggest not trying to jump directly from your current role to an entrepreneur / startup founder role. Start by finding business-oriented people in your current company and talking with them. Just try to learn more about how the business works.

Given that you say you work in "non-tech" environments, it seems likely that you are not completely surrounded by tech people and should be able to find non-tech people who are willing to talk to you, even just informally, about the business. Even if you are in a low-level role isolated beneath a bunch of layers of tech management, you should at least have access to either (1) a manager or manager's manager who understands the business better than you do, or (2) informal contacts with non-tech folks (could just be people you chat with at lunch or regularly say hi to in the hallway). Use whatever resources you can find. People generally respond positively to people who show an interest in them and what they do.

Another route is to join a small startup, where you will inevitably have more exposure to the business side than in a larger company. Find a place where you tech skills are needed, but where they're flexible and value people who get outside their comfort zone. Show that you are eager to learn the business, and maintain humility and "beginner's mind". This is the route I took in transitioning from a pure software engineering role to one that spanned engineering, product and project management, and interacted with pretty much every side of the company: sales, marketing, legal, accounting, recruiting, etc.
For the early versions on Archimedes hardware, yes. Later versions had increasing amounts on disk, which increased the boot time from 'nearly instant' to merely 'fairly quick'.

Although recent versions of RISC OS are now entirely softloaded, the increased speed of the Raspberry Pi and other modern hardware platforms has cheerfully reduced boot time again: by modern standards RISC OS is tiny!

Both x86 and Z80 instruction sets are far simpler to decode when you split the fields in an octal (2-3-3) format:

http://www.z80.info/decoding.htm

I recently had a look at ARM64. If you thought decoding x86 was complex... I was seriously expecting something simpler, being a RISC and such, but the instruction encoding is surprisingly complex. They are a fixed length but various fields are packed into each instruction in a pretty nonintuitive way.

CBT seems very poorly suited to anxiety.

1. Most of the CBT literature is aimed at treating depression.

2. Anxiety is going to strike when you don't have the time or resources to sit down with pen and paper and analyze what's going on, and there is a lot of that in CBT.
Well, Austin is humid and really hot. Reno arguably is better weather wise, given proximity to Tahoe.

But a lot of this is network effects. University of Nevada doesn't have the CS strength of University of Texas, so you don't have such a strong tech scene.
Eh it kind of makes sense. Of course they’re going to do their best to spy on America when so much depends on how Americans and their government feel about Israel.
>"I also believe that he had a motor in his bicycle, I still have the image in my head of a mountain stage where he left everyone behind. At the end I called all the specialists I knew and even they didn't understand how the performance was possible, even with EPO [erythropoietin]."

Not exactly ironclad. How far ahead was he for it to be unbelievable? How many specialists were consulted, and what were their specialties? It feels like half or more of the article is missing.

That makes as much sense as people working for nothing. I don't see any explanation for profits tending to zero, either.

I wonder why "perfect" markets are even a thing. It has no applicability to actual markets. It offers no insight on actual markets, and offers no useful predictions about markets. It's about as useful a model as the Monopoly game is - i.e. none.

I've seen many people claim that a "perfect" market is a requirement for free markets to work well. This isn't remotely true. "Perfect" markets and free markets have nothing in common.

"Perfect" markets just seem to be a strawman put forth by people who argue that since "perfect" markets are unachievable, therefore free markets are no good.
This is the most dystopian in a while? Geez I wish I had your peace of mind.
One other thing to consider, that I rarely hear anyone talk about, is that anxiety can sometimes be a symptom of an underlying physiological condition or disease. For example, hypoglycemia-related anxiety is a common complaint.

This doesn't talk about the health problems because in this case that wouldn't quite make sense, but it does show that minerals/substances/chemicals/whatever can locally concentrate around an area even when it's connected to the ocean.
No. It cannot. It is strictly an EEG device, which measures electrical signals from the brain. Also, any sort of electrical interference (from other electrical stimulation devices) will cause inaccurate readings.

I am not an expert on this: However, if you are looking for electrical stimulation, the safest is considered to be transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), but I am not necessarily endorsing it nor am I calling it safe. There is also transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS). You can find guides on it here [1], and there are ways to build such devices. Such devices are also sold on Amazon, I believe.

There is also somebody who made a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device, which is obviously very dangerous [2]. This treatment is used for things like depression and migraine headaches. You may want to search that username to the Instructable link I provided for interesting information.

> Especially since I and many others can verify this in 10 seconds.

Try it with a high resolution video you've transcoded locally (so you're not dealing with streaming quality differences) at various resolutions. The human visual system is a lot less precise with video than it is with still images. A paused DVD frame often looks like a blocky, terrible mess, but it's perfectly fine when displayed as video.

I won't argue that if you pick your content carefully, and know exactly what to look for, you can tell the difference. But, practically speaking, most people watching a decently encoded video won't see a huge difference from 1080p to 4k at typical screen sizes and viewing distances, and will see even less difference going to 8k.

I honestly can't tell you if I'm watching 720p or 1080p content on our TV without looking at the source file info.

You're confusing "What can be perceived" with "What actually matters." I'd argue 4k was a bit of a stretch to sell new TVs, and 8k is going to be even more so.

We've hit, as someone else said, the 44kHz/16bit point of video. Encoding quality and bitrate matter a bit, just like mastering does with audio, but we're past the point of diminishing returns at this point.

Climate might have something to do with it. Reno has both cold winters AND hot summers -- kind of a "worst of both worlds", climate-wise.
Of course there are distinctions between current operating profits and depreciation. There should be zero issue in making both public, e.g., [current profits=$100], [current year depreciation of past R&D=$15], [Net Profit=$85]. Report them both, pay taxes on $85, and both the govt and the stock market are happy.

The jurisdictional differences are the main thing that is being exploited here, and must be cracked.

Sure, if Acme Widgets makes 50% of their widgets in Germany and sells that whole lot in the EU, then fine. But Apple, Google, Amazon, FB, etc. setting up "R&D Offices" in Ireland, Bermuda or other tax havens and sending $$Billions in "licensing fees" to those entities to effectively hide their profits from US taxes is a flat-out farce, and it is literally stealing from you and me.

It is simple, if you are profiting off of the US economy, society, and infrastructure, you need to be contributing to it.

If you have a better solution to the time and jurisdictional problems, please state it. But it is long past the time when saying "it's complicated" and walking away is anything more than making excuses for those who game the system and steal from us every day.
