If we’re talking about the animal kingdom POV, then an expensive diamond is physical proof of the male’s resourcefulness and ability to provide for young. I would argue that if the diamond was displaced as this proof then it would shift to another physical object that’s publicly displayed such as a house or car.

The correlations are clear but causality less so. What if it’s not marriage that makes men happier, less prone to crime, and longer-lived - rather it is that women select for partners who are happier, less prone to crime, and healthier?
If Seaspiracy is to be believed, there's no such this as sustainable fishing at scale. In order to catch this much fish, you're going to kill tons of other animals, discard tons of nets and other fishing equipment, saying it's "sustainable" is probably a lie in most every sense.

Being written in TypeScript and not Rust seems quite a big liability that might see Rome never be popular or lose out quickly due to inferior performance.

There is already RSLint and SWC as JavaScript tools written in Rust and I would expect such tools to take over, with a good choice of it happening before Rome is ready.
There's a correlation/causation issue here.

The GP pointed out that the relationship described in this has red flags because the relationship alone is the source of happiness. It would lead to a happier, possibly longer lived, less criminal person.

You seem to be implying (and I don't think this is intentional) that close personal and romantic relationships [for straight men] == a wife. But that doesn't necessarily need to be true. Maybe for romance, but certainly not for close personal friendships.

You're correct that a person isn't an island, but the focus on single romantic partner may be to the detriment of other forms of relationship which are still hugely valuable health wise.
It's a bit sad how many of the links in the article don't work anymore.

The way you describe it one may as well believe that democracy is just a dictatorship with some handwaving. You blame "the system" or "the political machine" to alleviate responsibility for poor outcomes. The fact is that we, as a people, have significant levels of control over our government and yet we have a shitty result. We are simply not as good and smart as we like to think we are.

Regardless, I don't think a billionaire looking at the elected government of their country and saying "I know better than the people you elected, so I am justified in evading taxes and spending that money how I think it should be spent" is a morally justified position even if it is true.
Exactly. There's a good fence and box example in here.

Did re-read your comment, and thought I'd point you to some code so you can quickly see how it works.

Regarding trackdisk.device, you might want to take a look at:

https://github.com/rvalles/pyamigadebug/blob/master/ExecLibr...

And the function calling mechanism for RomWack backend:

https://github.com/rvalles/pyamigadebug/blob/master/RomWack....

Ultimately, TrackdiskDevice ends up being a thin wrapper around ExecLibrary:

For performance purposes, the Floppy tool does instead use this small server written in asm:

For the BERR case, without the initial reboot, Amiga will just crash again when calls are made from the exception handler. Recovering control after a reboot is a nice and clean way to get the Amiga into a known state. It is definitely also doable without rebooting, but somewhat more involved.

Else, when entering the debugger via e.g. the extra debug menu present in workbench when loaded via "loadwb -debug", the context RomWack works with is a user context, so I just take over the user task. As long as I don't corrupt the stack (or anything else), I can even return cleanly.
Hershey was pretty well connected. I'm pretty sure his family bankrolled a lot of his early ventures. This wasn't a "by his own bootstraps" story. But its absolutely a "try try again" story.

Today, there are more "by their own bootstraps" stories. Steve Jobs was the adopted. His original father was a Syrian immigrant, for example. If we go back to the 1800s, the "Gilded Age", the oppression of the "robber barons" was obvious: they destroyed small companies before the invention of antitrust laws.

Maybe we'd like more "by their own bootstrap" stories today, and I'd support implementing policies that make it more possible. (including a new antitrust review of today's companies, to see if they're bad for the economy, like the 1800s robber barons were). But lets not pretend that the 1800s were easier than they actually were.
I wouldn't call SomethingAwful a success story, so where else did you have in mind? All tenbux did was raise the bar for minimum effort involved in shitposting, and add a thin veneer of elitism to the mix.

>This is basically a red flag for any relationship.

No it isn't.

My grandparents, who were married for 60 years had this mentality. My wife's grandparents, who were married for a similar amount of time, also shared this mentality. My wife's parents still share this mentality (and are obviously completely devoted to one another, which you will notice if you spend about 5 seconds with them). My parents divorced, which has had an incredibly destructive effect on my family, almost certainly as a result of my father's belief that he needed a life that was independent of our family, and that he could somehow live "independently" and still fulfill his role with my mother as the leaders of our family unit.

Go talk to some elderly people: the ones who have been in marriages that have lasted the entire lives are generally completely devoted to one another, and as an extension their families. Unsurprisingly, those families seem to be generally full of happy, healthy people in their own happy, stable relationships.

There is a bizarre (and imo destructive, and toxic) idea that seems to be running through tech especially that devotion to your partner is rooted in "jealousy". It usually leads to "maybe you guys should become polyamorous. What are you jealous?"

And then, predictably, that leads to relationship collapse, heartbreak, and bitterness about 100% of the time. Shocking.

Kind of interesting, I really have no idea what peoples sex life is like on average. Idk how you can find out, no one wants to talk about it. So either porn or the rare few that do want to talk about it. But those few are going to be such outliers they're likely not average or just lieing
The problem with this line of thought is that some of the "crazies at the edge" in the past are the sensible, moderate ideas that you no doubt hold right now. For example, viewing slavery as an evil institution was considered the "crazies at the edge" opinion in the early-mid 1800s in the US, as opposed to the dominant opinion among "sensible" abolitionists that slavery was personal sin that requires a redemption process (like drinking). In some cases, this change of sentiment can take only a couple decades: See opinion polling on gay marriage or weed legalization.

This is why both-sides-ing or argument to moderation is not really a useful or convincing rhetorical device.
The market value is whatever somebody is willing to pay. If PG will pay $2.6 million for the NFT, that's its market value.

> You shouldn’t depend on one for happiness, but there is nothing wrong or weird about longing for one.

Precisely; too many men rely on partnership to meet most or all of their emotional needs and that is what drives intense loneliness when they don't have a partner.
> That's because programming in Python is basically same thing as programming in C, it is just more efficient.

Depends on what you're doing. If you're writing an operating system, programming in Python is not at all the same thing as programming in C. Ditto if you're writing an embedded system, especially if it uses memory-mapped IO.
Sorry but I’ll have to downvote this, there’s something about humans that is either cultural or genetic, but we travel and live in groups and we settle with partner(s). Being alone might be OK in a tribe, but as we moved to more isolated and individualist ways of living being alone means something completely different. On top of that every song you hear is about love and every movie you watch has a love story. You go out and you see happy couples around you, conversations most often revolve around dating.

My theory is that behind every violent crime or act of terrorism there is a huge amount of frustration that built up from not having that someone.

> This is basically a red flag for any relationship. If the only thing making or allowing a person to be happy in life is their partner then something is wrong. Mental health is no joke and not being able to enjoy life is usually a symptom of an underlying cause. Depression is probably the most common but anxiety disorders can be similarly hard.

There is a great amount of neuro-diversity in the human species. Some people are wired to be rugged individualists who could enjoy living by themselves in a cabin in the woods. Other people are wired to need to be around their family.

For some people, its not a choice, its how their brain is wired.
Not sure why you're getting downvoted; others may not agree, but I think you have a very valid opinion. It is an incredibly common human experience to think "I would be happy if only I had X," only to find that achieving X does not actually make one happy.
It is sometimes hard to filter reality from fiction, when tv is the input. You have schools preparing for mass shootings and banks giving guns when opening an account. You have swat teams demolishing a home because someone breaks in. Tell me again how you're not all partially cowboys.

What tech startup is this? Profitability is a long road & for a good chunk of the time you're relying on funding to get you through to profitability. You might get paid but how much you withdraw impacts your runway.
>It’s arguable she’s the only reason I’m able to be happy. ...then something is wrong.

I don't think work life balance and societal expectations are given enough discussion in these matters. Having a toxic job or no balance is going to breed problems in even the most well adjusted people.

Likewise, men are taught by society at large to providers. Men are expected to get great jobs so the wife can stay at the mcmansion with the kids and that anything less than this is a failure of their person. I'm obviously exaggerating, but these messages still abound in pop culture.

I don't know what the solution is, but I think it starts with employees taking more control over the work they do, how they work, and what happens to the profits they create.
it's one example of a swath of problems that can be discouraged in one go, rather than having to mitigate each poor policy one at a time.

natural ground cover is beneficial in many ways over impervious surfaces so incentivize the former and disincentivize (rather than prohibit) the latter. if you want to cover your whole lot with concrete, go for it, but expect to pay for the negative externalities of that.

I think we need to legalize both polygamy and sex work.

2) If the 80% of men cannot have a relationship, and we agree sex is a basic need, and we don't have sex robots yet, then sex work fulfills a valuable role.

Great advices overall. Just as for offloading a client project to someone else - this may often be against the contract, as it's quite common for a freelance contracts to require the work done by the actual company, that is no subcontracting. Short of having employees, this may be a tricky deal. So contract for such a possibility ahead of time.

No, not really in any sense.

You might say that marxism is for more equal outcomes than we have under today's system, but that's true of lots of things that aren't marxist (any form of progressive taxation to fund social programs, for example).

But even that's sort of an oversimplification and doesn't do either marxism or "equality of outcomes" justice.
