Nothing is preventing anyone from hacking Stadia either, but the percentage of people who jail break their consoles is really low due to the complexity (most aren't techies), the amount of work involved, and because online multiplayer will most likely no longer work long term; or in Stadia's case - you can no longer access your games.

I feel the parent comment was referring to PC gaming, where you don't need to do anything crazy to customize the games that you paid for.
Damnit why. I wish they were able to interview her but then again that's probablh the exact opposite of what she wants to be involved in.
Why be in a single state of flow when you can dip into and cycle through multiple flow states simultaneously. Only saying this semi-sarcastically. There is a kind of janky skill of knowing how to allocate attention while 'multiconsuming', but I'd be wary of doing it for anything that matters/multitasking simply because you start wading into the risk of unknown-unknowns territory, when you ignore crucial potentially info
I keep hearing about this more and more, so the problem seems to be accelerating. Rick Beato took YouTube to court for it and won. He made several videos throughout the process he went through. Seems exactly as exasperating as Aquachigger's.

Hah. That's an interesting point.

It seems to me that people could stand to turn these issues into sub-issues. I can't see much similarity between undersexed 25 year olds (typically male) and 60 year old couples who are either constructed differently or have health issues.

My main take-away is to heavily invest in sex robots and teledildonics.

Sure you can argue about the specifics and how bad eating beef is for the environment and whether it's 10x worse or 100x worse than something else. But it's hard to argue that it's not causing an environmental problem that other foods simply wouldn't create. Monoculture, water poisoning, carbon footprint, animal cruelty, health and we haven't even considered the ethics of it yet.
I get that it's part of our lifestyle but why is it so difficult to move on?
We donated to the EDF once; the sheer volume of junk mail they and their data broker sent us enraged us so much that we’ve sworn off ever giving them money again.
Sure, but the most powerful men today practise polygamy, so it's pretty likely that has been going on throughout history as well.
I agree with you that feminists don't enforce gender roles more than average, so attributing the shitty state of gender relations to feminism is silly.

I disagree that they are particularly willing to call out instances of women entrenching the patriarchy. I think this probably has to do with a root disagreement about the scope of what is considered policing gender roles.

It's true, for instance, that feminists are more likely to criticize a mother who tells her son not to play with dolls, which is good and something I agree with. It's just not the primary mechanism by which women enforce gender roles, which is partner choice. That's not to say that women shouldn't have the right to choose their partner--of course they should--but the patterns of how women choose partners enforce toxic gender norms, and many of the most toxic aspects of gendered male behavior arise from men navigating that landscape.

As a concrete example, consider bisexuality. The majority of women dislike the idea of choosing a bisexual guy as a partner: he's considered less masculine, or dirtied, or some kind of perversion of masculinity. This is their right, but it's also shitty. The problematic aspects I want to call out are that 1) the majority viewpoint among women about bisexual men is still very prevalent among feminist-identifying women, and 2) when someone expresses frustration at these collective choices, feminist-identifying women are far more likely to criticize the frustrated party instead of the toxic gender norms. The net result of this is men being terrified of homosocial affection and remaining closeted so as not to scare off potential partners, both behaviors most people would consider expressions of toxic masculinity.

This pattern repeats itself across a lot of different forms of gendered policing. But many feminists refuse to acknowledge it, because they don't acknowledge that partner choice can be a mechanism for gender role enforcement.
“It's a fact...that in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization . Some men make love every day; others five or six times in their life, or never. Some make love with dozens of women; others with none. It's what's known as 'the law of the market'...Economic liberalism is an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. Sexual liberalism is likewise an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society.”

― Michel Houellebecq, Extension du domaine de la lutte
Yes, they're considered "ports of entry".
If the primary thing you want is sex, does it makes sense to tie some relationship to it? Like, in place where prostitution is legal, all you would need is either that or partner that don't mind you having extra.
I think this is only a problem in a subset of cultures, not one of "adults" in general.
I've been using awk for about 20 years, but I've only scratched the surface -- "fetch a few columns from this file" sort of stuff. A colleague recently shared with me a significantly complex program that he'd written in awk, and it was certainly impressive... but walking through it with him didn't exactly convince me (a huge esolang nerd) that I should spend my working hours writing such monstrosities.

I recently heard a clever man argue (can’t remember who), that process does make things more efficient. Starting at chaos, the more things are defined, the more you get done.

Until it doesn’t, at which point the relation inverts and you eventually end up stagnant.

The problem is that because adding ever more processes worked so far, and now that you’ve hired process people, you continue adding more and more and ever more.

The process machine feeds itself.
And yet on the front page we have an article about how tech got so big through acquisitions. It seems likely that among the hundreds of companies that were acquired, there were at least some that had novel ideas those thousands of people didn't think of or didn't execute, and that's why they bought them. It can't be just to remove competitors or acquire talents. I would argue something like Instagram fits the bill.

Now again, I'm not saying the idea of just going to a FAANG and saying "I've got a good idea, hire me and give me resources" is going to work. I agree with you on this, the chance here is 0. I'm just saying that it might be arrogant, it's likely the OP doesn't have such a brilliant idea, but history shows it is possible to have a good novel idea that matters to those companies.
We spent around $700 on our wedding. Front yard ceremony, $150-200 for the justice of the peace, trays of food from the local BBQ place, more wine, beer, and drinks than our 25 or so closest friends could consume.

Getting married isn't inherently expensive. People make it so because an entire industry is optimized around convincing you to spend more on a dress than we spent on an entire wedding.

> Sexual attraction is not about 'understanding' how your partner feels

Not quite what the parent was talking about. They were referring to truly understanding that some people need sex to be happy, as opposed to others who like or even dislike it.

But understanding what your partner wants (whichever of those three it is) is a required starting point for having a better sexual relationship. There's no amount of counseling that can bridge "Well, they should just feel exactly like I do about it."

We place more faith in authoritative ideology than personal judgment and observation. So when authority (be it boss, consensus, convention or propaganda) says "be more efficient" (or whatever), we do it. Despite any observed mountain of evidence to the contrary. And despite our feelings on the matter.

As a rule, that's people. Little goddamn robots.

Reading chapter 8 of the framework, it does not seem that the curriculum described provides adequate preparation for technical courses at a college level. It lacks sufficient preparation in trigonometry (particularly identities) imaginary numbers, analytic geometry, nor does it provide adequate time for crucial techniques such as polynomial series in a 12th grade trig/calculus course.

Sounds glorious indeed! But what do you do when you need to send an email at 11:30? Do you send without looking? Or do you just wait until the next send window?

I'm genuinely interested in this because by far the most time-intensive distractor in my job is answering email. When I look at email at 9am I am usually busy replying until 10 at least. Then I get some work done which I need to send off by email at 11:30, seeing that I have 20 new emails of which 10 are somewhat relevant and 1 needs a reply.

So like an escrow for a marriage proposal... except it's held by the person to which the offer is made and is never closed out if the offer is accepted. I still can't say I get it.

Rings I get. They are a symbol of commitment, a sentimental memento, and just a nice accessory. But the idea that the cost to purchase the ring is somehow a reflection of that is still silly to me.
I’d rather say: On passion. Since I’m 13, I’ve always programmed in long stretches, by passion. It’s please to absorbe oneself into a problem and solve it. Not saying it’s healthy, just saying it’s rooted in our human form, not in workplace traditions.

I wouldn't read too much into that.

nginx is good at serving dynamic content too. Simple setup with uwsgi for Python and php-fpm for PHP.
That's a pretty wide amount of tasks, and more than that it's a lot of sensory input. It makes me wonder if they are actually processing any of it or just letting it sort of wash over them.

Like at the end of it could they give you a detailed report about what happened with any one of those things? Even just asking for the gist of things, I imagine at least one of those things is being tuned out entirely.

For instance, I often game and talk with friends at the same time. That's pretty normal I think, especially if we're playing the same game together. I could easily have a podcast on and a youtube video playing, and from my girlfriend's perspective I'd look like I was trying to do it all at once. But realistically there's no way I'd be able to give the podcast or the YouTube any attention. They'd just be on.
But that is basically wanting trophy wife. So you have her, do that you can show off to other guys.

And I mean, she will eventually figure out and resent that.
I wouldn't call it a primary thing, more like an essential component of a romantic relationship. Otherwise, a couple is what? Very committed best friends (I would hope)?

And on your other point, polyamory is increasingly common and a very valid way for people to approach such an inclination
>Feeling miserable every day without someone is not a good sign.

I would guess that the main issue here becomes the tendency for folks to become housebound. Retirement is no joke in terms of becoming inwardly focused.
Sexual exclusive relationships are a subset of healthy relationships.
I agree with you. I think it will all work out for the better. I just think the path between exploitation and greener pastures may be a rough one if there is no support structure to keep people from getting desperate once they are jobless. It’s hard to look to the future when you’re worried about putting food on the table tonight. It’s a good thing that this is happening, but I sympathize with the people affected because it might get worse before it gets better. I hope they can keep their chins up and see that there is a huge light at the end of the tunnel.
There are two subtly different kinds of efficiency:

1) How little input resources are used to produce a given amount of output. Tools that let you spend one hour to do a task instead of two fall in this category. As does growing twice as much wheat on a given plot of land.

2) What fraction of resources aren't used productively at all. The "slack" from the article, or wheat that gets grown but not eaten.

Improving the first kind of efficiency is usually a good thing. The second can also be positive, but only in moderation. If you try to reduce slack too much then you'll end up with systems that are brittle and have serious failure modes (like famine caused by wheat production being lower than expected)

The left regularly trots out statistics as "proof" of racism. That something isn't equal directly indicates racism (or some other -ism). So inequality of outcome implies inequality of opportunity. It leaves no room for the possibility of equal opportunity and different outcome.

Probably the biggest of these going on right now is the inequality in pay. Women are paid less (they are). This immediately implies sexism because no other explanation is even possible.

Assuming porn causes incels, but the golden age of porn started at 1969, so that doesnt work. Assuming incels cause porn, has porn become more profitable in the past ~20 years? I 'd say probably true based on the innovation of the profitability models , expecially after onlyfans became a thing

People like to play. People like to place artificial constraints upon their work, and then see what they can make within those constraints.

People get very used to a particular camera and lens, and sometimes they get a bit stuck in a rut and want to break away from that.

People sometimes like unpredictability, and it can lead them onto different ways of working or different ways to present a result.
The two that come to mind are gitlab’s https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/ and valve’s https://www.valvesoftware.com/en/publications. I read valve’s a few years ago and actually enjoyed it. I haven’t read any of gitlab’s.
People look down on the pursuit of money but appreciate the outcome

For the person that decides to efficiently pursue money at a higher velocity, the sooner they finish it the sooner they can recreate their social circle with new people that only see the outcome

There are always barriers to hire in different countries, because you cannot do business in them, or Labour laws are very strict and require an entity right away, etc. etc. There are companies like https://remote.com/ that help hiring people around the globe.

So there are remote companies that hire around the globe, keep looking and good luck :)

Spot on with the analogy of leapfrogging the land line technology. Also, just because you live in a country of law and order doesn't mean crypto doesn't have value there. Imagine missing the value proposition of the internet when it came out because you felt you lived in a country where you could trust the publishing and news industries to provide you with the best information!

Just as the internet unchained information from government and industry powers, cryptocurrency breaks the world of finance out of institutional control. This has the massive benefit of allowing bottom-up innovation, which is extremely valuable no matter which country you live in.
The newer seasons, while not as good as the golden era, are fairly decent in my opinion. I stilly try to catch a new episode when it comes on on Sundays and they seem to have picked up some steam. The newer episodes feature all sorts of characters as the main plot runners.
Who decides what is "important"? Who decides what is "over/undervalued"? What do you recommend, a new government agency to ensure that all people investing are investing in "properly" valued securities/coins/etc.? You say the coin is overvalued, however the average person obviously disagrees - this is the point and purpose of a free market. Supply and demand.

If you don't want to invest in something, don't. You shouldn't (and likely don't want) some other person or entity deciding what is best for you/family, so perhaps we should stop freaking out about things and/or telling other people how to live/spend/etc...

Also, what does climate change have to do with any of this? Attempting to use climate change, or the latest hot topic from FB, Twitter, etc. to then try to change everyone else's opinion (like you solved the puzzle of life, and not simply stumbled on something that is trending) is tiring and a bit ridiculous. NOTHING in life is this simple, including the market. I would say the markets are heavily pinned to sentiment, or more simply put how the majority of people feel about it.

Absolutely, "let the market be", and this is the choice people are making when they invest in something. People usually don't invest in X and say "okay, now rewrite the rules of the world for me because I think X is not the best place for money. I don't care about anyone else, people who invested in X need to immediately re-prioritize because I feel Y is more important than X and everyone else needs to think the same as well" Isn't this fascism? Is this really the world we want to live in?

You make your opinion on the market "heard" by taking part (investing) or not taking part (not investing), it's literally that simple.

If you want to invest in climate change, go for it - no one is saying not to, but on the flip side, you are inferring that everyone should NOT invest in DOGE so more money can go to climate change? I don't quite understand what the point here is.
Exciting work; great to see the new wave of data science oriented JavaScript modules like this and Arquero focused on general principles such as the grammar of graphics and relational algebra.

If I could make a suggestion to the author: it would be a great selling point to include some interactivity in the example demo. This is really hard in R and Python, but easy in JavaScript, and would be a good/easy selling point to a lot of data science people.

Multitasking gets a bad rap but I would suggest that not everything we call "multitasking" disrupts focus. For example, many tasks become background processes and some provide rhythm for improved focus. In my experience, for example, listening to a Lex Fridman podcast while doing Photoshop design works great together and I think is better when done together than not, perhaps using different parts of the brain. Likewise, listening to music while coding are complementary tasks for me. So some tasks multitask together with others fine and improve focus, while others interrupt or disrupt focus, in my experience.
We evolve by trying to be better at what is needed of us to adapt. So yes, it's literally wired in as some sort of survival instinct.

And technically, if we keep struggling at it, over time (generations) we'll get better at it.
Do people actually refuse to accept this? Are you sure they're not just doing something for a short-term benefit at the expense of long-term benefits? I don't refuse to accept that pulling an all-nighter is bad for my health and my efficiency, I just waited too long for a deadline and need to get stuff done by the morning. Likewise, I don't refuse to accept that a healthy diet is crucial to my health and wellbeing, I just really wanted some ice cream.
