Thank you for providing more details. I actually was in support of Bitcoin Cash around the time of the fork, but after some time, something about Bitcoin Cash and r/btc seemed off to me. Bitcoin Core and r/bitcoin seemed to be the more reasonable folks. Roger Ver's attitude in interviews did not help. If anything, his behavior made me think twice about holding Bitcoin Cash at all. I can see that some people feel this same thing about the Bitcoin Core devs though. Craig Scott Wright and the Bitcoin SV split also didn't inspire confidence in the Bitcoin Cash community for me. Anyway, at this point I'm trying to gather more information to see if it's worth buying back into Bitcoin Cash, so I appreciate this.
The Elder Scrolls games are polarizing because they're not fun in the traditional sense (they got better on this axis over time, but were never great)

The fun of an Elder Scroll's game, for me, is the sense of aimlessness in a world that doesn't feel structured like a quest-checklist, but like a world. Something I can poke and prod and truly make my own goals and activities in. You could almost call it "meta-fun". The individual actions aren't fun - some in Morrowind are almost painful - but the big picture is enthralling for someone like me.

But not everybody's like that; and not everybody likes them
Totally agree with this characterization. Everything is immensely well funded and completely unimpressive for a city with this kind of budget. Whether it is massive utility bills or shocking costs for bike lanes in the millions per mile, it seems they simply can’t manage funds responsibly and yet complain that they are owed more in taxes from “the rich”.

Even the city’s vaccination efforts have been focused on “systemic racism” and “equity”. Apparently their vaccine list prioritizes zipcodes with higher representation of races they deem disadvantaged. Many people sat in the Seattle queue with no notifications coming their way before finally finding out about this insanity and seeking vaccinations through other means.

The sewage treatment plant you reference is also not even doing its job. Every year it leaks millions of gallons of raw untreated sewage into the Puget Sound (example https://www.king5.com/article/news/3-million-gallons-of-sewa...). For a city so focused on the environment they only seem to pay lip service to it, as both water bodies and parks (from drug addicted vagrants) are polluted.

The internet service here is fine and the costs are less enraging than city utility bills. Personally I don’t want a public run alternative to kill the acceptable service I get now. At worst I would be worried that Seattle would censor the content accessible via a public internet service given the city leadership’s politics.
The entire post flows awkwardly and feels more like an angry ramble than a coherent thought process was applied.

This coupled with being a dropout. quitting job after job, and basically phising executives for attention makes this candidate a high risk hire and is not worth the time.

Poster: You will need to extend your hard skills and demonstrate why a group should take the risk of your background on. It may be brutally honest, but the world is tough.
IME, people add these timeouts as a hack around two major things:

1) broken software (often their own) that can lock up

2) broken networks that prevent proper dead peer detection, such as by dropping ICMP packets, employing NAT or other stateful firewall rules that drop unknown packets (which happens when a router reboots or otherwise loses or evicts state), etc.

The eternal irony is that these intended robustness hacks invariably end up creating or compounding reliability problems. And people get ridiculously sophisticated with it. For example, rather than add timeouts to each piece of client software, people may an employ a forwarding application proxy (see, e.g., istio on kubernetes) to front requests and implement retries centrally. Now instead of N problems you have 2N or N^2 problems because such architectures invariably end up recapitulating all the sins committed at the IP and TCP level.

AirPods have a worse mic than pretty much anything you can get. Macbook Pro's built-in microphone or Apple's $20 wired earbuds both have much better mics than AirPods.

I would suggest recording yourself using different microphones and comparing them to see how bad Airpods mic is.
Its important to remember being smart and being good at your job, are very different things.

Many jobs do not require much intelligence. Even those that do, usually its just one component of the skills required.

If you are in one of the suburbs of Seattle, you pay even more for utilities, so they can’t be more wasteful than average (or at least in the greater Seattle area).

There are a lot of games played with utility rates (eg: have taxpayers on the hook for infrastructure rather than ratepayers), so it’s hard to compare across regions and correctly account for the true cost.
This is probably in part because so much of it is nothing but corn.
"If I was you" this is what I would do:

Build awesome products or have a killer portfolio/github and work anonymously for crypto-related projects. Build a reputation around your username not your real name. Try getting paid in BTC, etc.
Airpods can't compete with a decently priced boom microphone that actually comes close to your mouth. The distance from your mouth to your ear (where the mic resides) is quite long especially considering how little space they have to throw in a capsule into.

So, either you'll get a lot of ambient noise, the signal is quiet or Apple will do some algorithmic trickery that tries to approximate some kind of echo cancelation on the audio signal, but compared to a simple dynamic microphone that just has a more favorable position and form factor, it'll always lose.
Most expensive prices per gigabyte in the developed world. Small caveat, the situation is still terrible, but being correct is important.

If you wanted to hear what it would have sounded like: https://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dc.asp?dc=D_CDA68333 click on the little ♫ music icons. (The link was kinda buried in the article).
I would say next.js comes closest for a ‘nodejs server framework’ for me. It’s really great to only use one language for frontend, backend and templating.
Sure, but you can say as bad or worse about almost all code in the wild. Almost everything is garbage.
> globalization

this is it right here. we're extracting all nutrients from a concentrated area and sending the yields far away. There's no replenishment.

Even the water shortages in California is not as simple as "farmers are using all the water". It's the demand for food far, far away.
In fairness, by the time someone makes a forum post like this, they are probably at the frustrated angry rant stage.
It's painful but the walking speed is intentional. You're supposed to trudge through the world for a couple levels so that you feel so much faster by level 5, and really fast by level 10 or 15.

The hardest part of morrowind these days is those first five levels, when in addition to learning the game's systems, you have to get past the game intentionally being harsh. With the low speed, the bad rolls, and the crappy fatigue, it takes a toll.
It's cool to see that work has continued on this. I saw it posted a couple years ago and it seemed like just another shitcoin
Yeah, I'm not sure how well it'd work out but Upwork is likely worth a try. I'm not sure if fixed rate or hourly would work out better.

It's important there, as anywhere, to approach interactions with humility.
I did put a rough number on it but I must be pretty close. I reckon it might sound a bit rude which It wasn't intended to be.

As for the podcast, I was proposing it as a gateway into this field, not as a source to substantiate my general point although it does. My point is otherwise based on first hand experience and a large body of anecdotal evidence. You summarily dismissed one of the most promising array of treatments for people going through some rough stuff without any evidence or submitting any source yourself.

You're right about the poor communication bit though and thank you. Here's a 3:57 minute cut-off [0] from that same podcast, dealing specifically with psylocibin interventions.

> Please please don't quote podcasts as research

Well, this is a podcast with a cutting edge researcher ... I think it's fair game, and I didn't call it research.

I can assure you the general idea we're discussing is worth some of your attention, especially if you or someone you know is dealing with just about any type of serious personal issue.

An answer to your problem is isolated countries with strong local cultures and nationalism. Each country's population has a shared set of beliefs about what-should-be-done so they can implement it locally and the winners can impose their superior culture on their less successful neighbors. Hopefully not exterminating all different cultures and optimizing for short term gain though. We've always been doing this and still are. Islamic culture has some commonly agreed upon ideas of what-should-be-done and those countries implement it without being watered down by individualism. So does western culture but we've already done it and take it for granted so it's hard to notice. For instance, you don't see western politicians fighting to deny women the right to vote because we do have a common what-should-be-done idea about that.
What does "acorns and rejects" mean? I don't think "acorn" can be used as a verb.

FYI, the original title of the article is

IMO that seems more clear...
Oh geez. Please don't let strangers on the internet diagnose you.
There's a good chance that the additional clicks are deliberate. Certain queries are a lot more resource-intensive than the average and it's not very difficult to turn Google Search into a money losing business, even with the ads.
> I also read on forums that Chinese entrepreneurs buy all the chips and stockpile them. Is this some new kind of war?

I suspect it isn't just the Chinese speculating right now.

I do suspect that the Chinese are probably the only place in the world that had rolls of random semiconductors tucked away in various factories not being used. So, some of these are genuine--most are probably fake. Caveat emptor.

However, I'm am totally down with everybody who depends on Always Late Inventory(tm) getting a rude awakening. The problem is that the lesson won't stick.
Alas, this is not an acceptable cover or excuse for this behavior.
Yo i sympathise OP! I think most people in this thread are being dicks. The job market is ruthless at the moment. Interviewing when you don't have a perfectly linear story is the worst. I typically have to go:
"yup, i'm a college dropout, i had a 2 year span were i was pretty depressed and did next to nothing, then i worked at a gas station for a while in my early twenties etc etc"
It's difficult to convince anybody that you are an amazing hire after having admitted to a history of professional failure. I think it was just dumbluck I found my current job. My approach was to be fully honest and transparent, admit to being a bit of a fuckup, but i tried to frame it like it's actually a good thing, because im driven by those failures. I found when I tried to hide the interview typically went worse.

I think it sounds like you are an ace engineer, working for IBM at 18 and supplying patches to GNU projects. Thats amazing. You're probably a better engineer than most people in this thread calling you socially inept or gatekeeping the SWE roles. The job market is ruthless, so your frustration is completely justified. Here hoping you'll manage to turn your situation around!
Some places have it now. I'm in the The Maritimes and here ISP Eastlink also has mobile phones. I went from $90/month Bell to $30/month Eastlink mobile (with $15 bundle, otherwise $45)
Don't private ISPs behave this way because competition with them was outright banned? I remember most cable companies agreed to do all the heavy digging and cabling only in exchange for being exclusive service providers in the area.

So the ISPs may formally be private, but market forces are absent, with predictable consequences. A municipal network breaks this monopoly, adds competition, so, it's good.
I'm paid very well for my job as a manager, but I cannot divine all the consequences of my management. I'm sure I've empowered and stifled beyond my intent. Legislators are the same; they're ultimately just human.

Once again, you're being too simplistic.

steps:
1) chime or slack them asking to setup a 30 minute sync about the role.
2) see what they want and if "apply"ing makes sense. If not, figure out your gaps.

Do this 5ish times. See where the gaps are. Work to fill them.

oh and get on blind so you can learn from other people's mistakes :)
Probably depends on the exact practices. If they till a lot to work manure into the ground, that loosens the soil allowing it to blow away.

Others use tractors, buy fertilizers and other crop treatments like anyone else.
That sounds right, but probably at considerably lower cost.

I would assume most fairly-tech-savvy people wouldn't trust such a link. It doesn't obey the rules for what we've been taught a real URL should look like.
Tangentially related, this article was very recently published by a newsletter I follow. It talks about strategies to make your real life more interesting, and that by playing video games for hours you have proven that you have certain skills that are useful (like focus, achieving goals, learning new things, etc).

I found it really interesting as someone that struggled with video games previously. I don't currently struggle with them (though if I had the right desk setup I probably would have a hard time staying away from them still), but certainly there are always other things that take their place. I was kind of floored to realize that I can actually focus really intently on a video game, and thus I do possess the ability to focus despite my difficulties to do so on boring work tasks.

Maybe you'll find something interesting, inspiring, or thought-provoking within it: https://www.deprocrastination.co/blog/play-the-ultimate-game...
I don't know if this is possible in Austin, but Uber eats allows bicycle delivery (almost definitely available in Austin), and "on foot" delivery as well. Other delivery companies may have similar programs.

Instacart (in some locations) allows you to sign up just to do the shopping (then the drivers pick it up).

Taskrabbit will definitely have some things you can do without driving as well.

Just explore the options; something where you can set your own schedule would be really nice while you're job hunting and interviewing.
Because they can. That should scare you.
Well actually if solosoyokaze had said something more like

"This is probably referring to the rothschilds based on (link to historical information). It's reasonable to extrapolate that they were war profiteers based on (reasoning)"

Then I think it really could have added some insight into the world instead of being like the drive-by ignorance the parent comment refers to.
I've never worked outside academia, so obviously take my advice with a huge grain of salt. To me it seems the common theme is that you are consistently applying to massive beurocratic organizations with rigid pre-established rules, and are then disappointed that you fit poorly into that structure. Have you tried looking at smaller places? This way even if you are entry level, your immediate boss will hold more meaningful decision making power. Your willingness to branch out independently and identify/fix problems will be more of an asset if there isn't already a person or department dedicated to every aspect of operations. Im wondering about maybe machinist type jobs at a local place, as they tend to be less picky about college education, but your technical and software skills could help you move quickly depending on what you're doing. Maybe you end up also fixing their business software backend etc
The problem with this is it's biased against poor people. Rich addicts can afford to only be users, but poor addicts are the ones that need to deal to support their habit. So if you jail dealers, you're disproportionately jailing poor people.
Deep Springs has something like 18 students, right?

You’re young and you can change your trajectory—have hope!—but it will not be through some home run fantasy. Don’t apply to FAANG or Deep Springs or MIT. Apply to your local community college and to local companies’ IT departments. Keep the job, stay enrolled, get good grades, learn to stay quiet, learn to listen, and only then learn to argue well. After two-three years at community college (depending how fast you go, based on need to work), take your good grades and apply to a few colleges. Go to one that you can afford and isn’t intimidating. Do the work there, too, and graduate. Five years. And then all will be well.
Yeah. That’s a great way to describe it! It’s like a differential equation where the fundamental function is the change and you have to integrate it to find the state. Traversing the blockchain is like integration.
Sturgeon's Law applies.
How much actual paid work experience do you have? The pattern of quits of jobs/school isn’t attractive to most hiring entities, but if you’ve got enough experience and/or education, and you can mostly use enough of the former to substitute for the latter) to meet classification entry requirements, local or state civil service coding positions can be more tolerant of nontraditional work history than elite private and the most sensitive federal agencies, which seems to be where you've focussed.

By industry standards, pay sucks but benefits like health/dental are quite good in many cases (depends on particular state or locality.)
I believe it takes 4 years after the end of applications before it can be certified organic. Stuff will grow the following year or so. I think the half life is 90 days. Plus farmers have to pay for the chemicals they spray and try to apply the right amount since over application would cost more. So it should resolve itself fairly fast.
Looking at the last ~8 years of “technology” releases but I’d deign to say no demos are eliciting that response.
I’m not sure how much longer that’s true. A family friend is a realtor and she commented about how now she’ll get asked questions like “I looked up the address and I can’t get Comcast, what are my internet choices?” — probably because of WFH. I had to give her the lowdown on area ISPs and where to look.
They behave this way because the restricted nature of the physical plant of last mile access makes them a duopoly. In some of those areas of centurylink and comcast, neither one wanted to flinch first and be the first to spend many millions replacing their copper plant with fiber. Since they were both equally aware that the consumers in the area had available service options from only two companies, and exactly what the prices/packages/speeds of those services were...

In some cases where the copper phone lines are degraded or a long loop length, it's worse than a duopoly. It's a monopoly since the service options might be 5 Mbps down x 768 kbps on ADSL2+, or 200-300 down and 15 Mbps up on comcast or charter DOCSIS3.
Helping other people is actually a tool I use to manage my anxiety. :)

Helps me put my worries in perspective. It works really well!
I'm guessing that's because you don't do cocaine.
Recently had to start using MS Teams at work. What a terrible UX: truncated message widths, even for code. No syntax highlighting, markdown-ish syntax only works when you type it in their little editor—when you paste it in it doesn't format, isn't smart enough to auto-start a new message when I start typing, hides bottom of message—even when there's only one line left, etc. Just a bunch of little stupid things that add up to one, in the immortal words of Strong Bad, suckquake of a user experience.

In short, I would have loved to have the option of using Element to chat with my team instead of MS Teams. Thank you for making this!
I wish I could pay that cost, and get rebated over time as others attach, perhaps with some time dependence.

Some utilities do work that way in some places, though I only know of one example as a proof of existence. When someone I know built their fairly isolated country house, they had to pay for a sewer line. When someone else built nearby, the second house just had to pay an impact fee, which went to the first house to offset the initial cost of the pipe.
Seattle had a municipal broadband program, but, unsurprisingly, was uncompetitive.

I think the water and electricity utility inefficiency is more state issues than city. The money is being spent on fish rights, tribal obligations, getting the last 1% of sewage spill (when the counties across the sound have broken septic flowing constantly) etc. These are hitting the other dam owners too.

You can see some budget breakdown here: http://openbudget.seattle.gov/#!/year/2020/operating/0/servi...
I agree, I don't love Pydantic. I much prefer the "stack" of Attrs + Marshmallow + Desert + Apispec. More tools, yes, but they compose nicely and they each do one thing well. Now where have I heard that one before...

I wish FastAPI had chosen that path instead of Pydantic, but here we are. FastAPI itself is a wonderful tool, with wonderful docs.

is it possible that pydantic is colliding with the steering council because it's misusing the annotations feature?

Yes.

There are lots of good reasons why types aren't necessarily a great match with runtime validation.

It gets the whole thing backwards IMO; I want to be erasing types at runtime and verifying them ahead-of-time. If I consume a piece of data that might be the wrong type, I want to explicitly validate the data myself, and return the desired type if and only if my validation passes. This is the Attrs approach and it works much better, even if you have to put in a few extra keystrokes in the handful of situations when you want explicit validation upon every class instantiation.

Moreover, making annotations lazy is not mindless adherence to purity or some kind of intended "fuck you" to the Pydantic ecosystem. PEP 649 clearly states its motivations. Type annotations have always been a static analysis tool first and foremost, and I think it's absolutely wrong to even suggest that CPython should suffer a higher maintenance burden and suboptimal performance to support what is effectively an off-label usage.
I love DIY, but man, that is not a good idea. Right there with “make your own amalgam fillings” and “3 weird hacks for paint stripper”.

YouTube has some good content, but we all need to try on common sense, too.
If you spend less than 2 months on the job before you put in your 2 weeks, no boss will try to keep you.
As explained in the thread. Rust the language itself doesn't know what the heap is. The heap is a library-level concept. You can use Rust perfectly well in heap-less/stack-only environments.

Yeah, that "expecting to get rewarded for calling out issues" is one of the things you can learn from homeschooling that needs to be unlearned later.

It comes down to you not having much power to fix anything as a child and parents who praise you for pointing out significant issues.

Anyways, it's not how society or workplaces work.
I have assumed for awhile that they were either drones from an adversary or, in some cases, from our own CIA.
