Your definition seems closer to ordoliberalism [0].

If competition and free markets are a necessary components of capitalism, then you would conclude - for instance - that the US stopped being a capitalistic country in the late XIXth century with so many prominent trusts. Or perhaps it never was capitalistic before WWII, since policy makers did not nurture competition but rather attempted to shield local industries from foreign competitions.

[0] Wikipedia definition: Ordoliberalism is the German variant of economic liberalism that emphasizes the need for the state to ensure that the free market produces results close to its theoretical potential

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying the abstinate community exists, and could help. I've seen them try.

If you think "abstinate" isn't a valid sexuality, that there aren't people who choose not to have sex just as there are people who choose other genders, machinery, etc; then we'll just have to disagree.
I used uLisp in a project. I had no available non-volatile storage so I handled persistence by writing my code on the laptop and sending it serially to the micro.

When some functions proved to be stable and useful I ported them in as uLisp builtins with a C implementation.

I used it as a debug driver in an STM32 for an eZ80 CPU - the STM32 provided USB to TTY and a third serial channel for debug control.

It was a nice addition but I do wish it was designed in a way that made these modifications easier.
Remark 1: To my knowledge, it is not uncommon that men switch genders when sharing their stories on reddit simply to get more empathic reception as opposed to some "men up" rebuttal. I did that after a therapist told me a man can not be abused by woman, I wanted to see if I am really emotionally abused or just crazy. It was very helpful.

Remark 2: I vividly remember those gnawing feelings of sexual and romantic unfulfillment I suffered as a young man. But it is quite difficult to talk about those things without being accused of implying that men deserve sex and women are obliged to provide it. This post did an excellent job dancing around all the landmines, but not everybody has the capacity to do that and especially young people should have a safe platform where they could talk about these things.

Remark 3: I have noticed that men's rights activists and feminists nowadays constantly accuse each other that the other group wants privileges, not an actual equality. I would love to see a reputable research on this topic.
Teachers aren't just piling on for funding.

It seems to be true for most people, in my experience. I don't see it as "horrifying", just a normal/typical human thing.
Around here we have two self-service checkout systems: one is as described, where you have to take each item individually out of your card and present it to a scanner. I detest those, as it makes me feel like a fool fumbling around with the scanners while the cashiers are 10x faster than I am.

The other one is where you pick up a handheld scanner at the store entrance, and you build up your item list while you're in the store loading your cart. Those ones I like, as they feel much faster and much more reliable to me. Moreover, I can look at the display of the scanner to see if I have all the items I came for, I don't have to search the cart.

That’s because all of these so called “gifted students” flunk our first semester calculus. We have to implement curves just to get them through to higher level math courses. Which they also struggle in because they only needed to get 40% on that Taylor Series test to get through second semester.

Ap calc is a joke from my perspective. I’m not sure how to solve the crisis, but it’s plain to see that American students that test into calc are woefully underprepared. I’ve tried to advise students to start with more fundamental courses, but they’ve been told they are “gifted” their whole lives. They ignore you and charge into calculus. Then they come back when the semester is about to end to reassess options. Just like that, what would have been another perfectly serviceable American engineer is lost.

As a young person who works parttime as data-analist next to my studies;

I feel what you’re describing is part of growing older and being in a different phase of life. What you mentioned is something that I have read more often. I feel that the only way for me to appreciate work like you do, is to currently work more than might be healthy. As wrong as that might seem, it seems very right to me.

For instance, with my 16-hours/week I dont get done what I want. I’m sure it doesn’t matter in the long term, but there’s so many cool projects to do. I would love to be allowed to work in the evening to finish some cool stuff. I genuinely feel better after that. I expect to feel different about this after 15 years in the industry.

Maybe that’s just how we learn, maybe it’s societal expectations that we try to live up to and stop caring about when we’re older.
Seduction would make it, if not a choice, something you can tap with the right skill.

The parent says the opposite: it's NOT a choice, you either feel it or not. So seduction techniques would not apply.
goes back to the author's statements:

>there’s a vast difference between a person who believes the stated beliefs of a group as opposed to a person who holds membership in a group as a defining part of their identity. Imagining a conversation with someone who generically believes women should be treated well is a much different experience than imagining the same conversation with person who boldly declares themselves a feminist; the same is true for what you’d expect from a talk with an MRA.

Always seems to come down to good intentions, bad actors that make such "identities" dangerous. Even if it's an otherwise honest person that just wants some self-help advice.

I don't work in coding but as sysadmin. And the same stuff applies.

Projects with multimillion dollar outcomes are somehow managed by people who don't stoop to ask your team anything in the planning phase.

Instead they come in the implementation phase and want you to jump. Then you point out the resources required - in writing - and the fires are burning...

At that point, I may help or may not depending on whether they pay good overtime and it suits me.
Instead of a "minimum wait", could you implement a random wait? Some random number of ns/ms between calls. Something that's enough to make any timing attack measurements unusable?
Idk, I worked at IG for a year and wrote a lot of backend code in the Python webserver stack. I believe they would benefit massively by aggressively migrating services to the FB Hack stack.

Yeah used both in prod and was pondering the same question. On top of that dd was ridiculously expensive and resource hungry in kubernetes environment.

For someone who doesn’t use as many custom metrics (which I suspect are most orgs out there) dd is probably superior bc it gets the job done (mostly) and has ok ui

> Several 'death marches' over my career were in fact necessary for business reasons. Large penalties can exist in contracts when deadlines are not met.

This is why management should be setting internal deadlines LONG before the actual deadlines. If they fail to do this, it's their fault, not yours (as the engineer).

If you play up to their illusions of success by telling them "it'll be fine, we can do it" (I've done this -- a lot) then of course they'll go along because you'll be the one to blame when the deadline isn't met.

Setting yourself up as the one to blame for promises outside of your control is a very, very bad thing to do.

> No one is going to reschedule CES, the Christmas shopping season, or the Superbowl for you because you were running behind.

This is WRONG. Of course they reschedule things for CES. If a product isn't ready in time for some event, the company WILL find a way to deal with it.

This is what took me a very long time to learn.

Nobody cares about CES. Not in the big scheme of things.

> I get to take off time whenever I want and WFH whenever I want because I accept that there will be times when I absolutely cannot do whatever I want.

Taking a couple weeks off is nothing. Tell me a story about how you take off a couple weeks every 3 months -- you don't. Because, in order to meet the "demand" you speak of, you're not actually going to use those times off.

There are something like 104 weekend days in the year. Now combine that with non-work hours there are in a year. Now add a standard amount of vacation days per year in tech companies (like 4-6 weeks?). That's how much time you're giving up by working nights and weekends.

> Embedded devs are often on a schedule dictated by hardware schedules, production schedules, factory availability, shipping time, etc. etc. Just because the job is software doesn't mean it has to resemble any other software job.

But it isn't the responsibility of the hardware developer to ensure timelines are appropriately padded.

The reality is, and this is especially true in hardware, non-software related delays happen all the time. It needs to be accounted for either way.
This is awesome, a lot of knowledge shared in that code, and lots to learn from I'm sure.
Proving, again, that “given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow” is a lie.

Random waits only increase the number of measurements an attacker needs to make, they do not eliminate the side-channel leakage. Intuitively the attacker can take many measurements and average them out to eliminate the randomness introduced by the waits, then extract the bits of information from the side channel.

My impression was she wrote more about LA and eastern California than about the Bay Area, but it has been a long time since I opened Slouching Towards Bethlehem or The White Album. I think you're right, though. The later stuff, I can't say--one of these days I should acquire a copy of her and Dunne's The Monster.
American and European competition laws are very different.

In the United States - the thing that gets close attention is any attempt to coordinate to increase prices, even if that results in increased competition.

Decreasing prices to reduce competition gets a pass over here.
My experience with Django was that the larger the project got, the more I wanted to bypass it and just work directly with the database. Instead of mixing in python code in html. I just wanted to output quoted html in python. I got into weird issues with the parser. Like I wanted to output a dynamic style sheet. And it wasn't updating properly, probably because of nested includes.

Its also much nicer to reason about a function outputting a block of html code that represents some object like a toolbar. Than to have python code in the html doing doing for loops with html code inside.
Well I think what they wanted was for their work to be used. It was a great big bag of things.
Hi, I saw your comment on the wechat page, I was wondering if you have the account and can verify me?
Such "analyses" simply appeal to our ape brain centers that trigger envy and seek easy explanation for complex phenomena. "How did they get big?" Oh, it's just acquisitions and the law! Nothing that a savior in the House/Senate can't fix.

I am sure acquisitions played a part. But failing to admit that those companies and their leadership did many things the right way is a very one sided view of what has actually happened.
Spouse was the same way.

There is a right answer.
She absolutely will not tell it to you.

43% of men experience sexual assault/harassment in their lifetime, yet you are sticking by your statement that “Your son will likely never be sexually harassed or assaulted”? A 57% chance of something happening is definitely not likely.

And yes I am clearly making a point: people that gloss over sexual crimes against men are spreading destructive lies not supported by any data. Maybe it went over your head the first time I said it?

Pretty sure the law is symmetric wrt sex/etc. Those human/civil rights laws were written at a time when disadvantaged groups were just gaining political clout and only bold enough to demand equality, not supremacy. Nowadays, it's different, and they're asking for more than equality but the laws are outdated.

So one thing to keep in mind: it is estimated that half of all human beings who ever lived throughout human history were killed by mosquitoes.

I understand your argument, but at some point you have to say "I'm human, I care primarily about humans, I will do what it takes to help humans." At some point we get pragmatic, selfish, and we declare something our mortal enemy. I'd say the largest killer of human beings by orders of magnitude best qualifies. I say if we can eradicate mosquitoes that feed on humans we should do it.

The good news is that the plethora of ecosystems and niches in them that are filled and supported by mosquitoes is so rich with pathways that it is highly unlikely to cascade badly if they were eradicated. Particularly, we only target mosquito species that are disease vectors for human beings, and there are many many more mosquito species that target other animals or are not disease vectors for humans that those niches may very well be filled by other species of mosquitoes.
That's what I wrote.
The original comment received a question "Do you speak both languages natively?". While not aimed at me, I addressed it for the general case. People aren't brought up with both languages and will not have a native understanding of both. 6 years of at most 3 to 5 hours a week of French in high school don't get you to native level. I don't doubt at all that it's sufficient for your needs, but the bar for native is much higher than communicating without issues when dealing with work or meeting people. Even if you were at native level, it still wouldn't mean that this is the general case.

I hope the original poster replies as well, it would be interesting to know if he knows the history behind his last name.
It’s still bad, but the tweet mischaracterizes the report.

New Zealand's biggest intentional biosecurity breach was in 1997, when Central Otago farmers imported the Rabbit Calicivirus (RCV) from Europe. The population dipped briefly, then returned as the naturally RCV-immune rabbits bred and replaced the dead RCV-susceptible rabbits. (It's believed that when young rabbits are exposed to the virus, they become immune -- so the virus killed older rabbits but the next generation took their place) <https://www.nzvna.org.nz/site/nzvna/files/articles/What%20is...>

> Marxism-Leninism is a strict subset of Marxism.

Not quite. According to the original Marxist dogma, Russia couldn't become socialist in 1917, since it had too few proletarians, and too many peasants - i.e. it wasn't capitalist enough for a socialist revolution. Bolsheviks disagreed with that, obviously (and some Marxists even say that this forcible approach in a society that wasn't ready for it is precisely why the USSR turned out like it did).
Maybe that's got more to do with the fact that the Faroe Islands have a population of 52,000 while Japan's population is 125,410,000? Surely the fishing practices of the nation 2400x larger are going to be more impactful by at least an order of magnitude or two.

Edit: We don't have to guess. Using 1986 numbers since this is when I remember the world being peak-Save-The-Whales (Star Trek IV's release year). Admittedly if you use current numbers they're closer, but that's because Japan's fishing output has decreased dramatically. That decrease is due to exhaustion of its fishing grounds; their fishing practices i.e. square milage of nets it's putting in the water each day remain mostly unchanged.

Faroe - 355,000 metric tons fished in 1986

Japan - 12,750,000 metric tons fished in 1986
