Honestly, I think the study sort of damns itself with this line:

> Time spent on coordination activities and meetings increased, but uninterrupted work hours shrank considerably.

You can easily translate this as:

> Without workers in the office, middle management was left to spend additional time on pointless meetings, inhibiting their workers from spending their time on work tasks.

If that is true, let's consider the facts:

1. Workers worked longer hours.
2. Workers spent more time in meetings than before.
3. Workers achieved roughly the same output.

Now, if we stare at these three things really hard, I think the conclusion is that additional meetings do not play the supplemental role that many managers seem to believe it does, and in fact minimizing meetings will increase productivity.

Perhaps 'inefficient' was a poor choice of terms on my part. What I mean to say is that getting your education at an institution yields superior results compared to watching youtube videos.

When learning in-person, cheating is less easily facilitated, student engagement is more naturally promoted, discussion and interaction is inherently encouraged, distractions are much fewer, and the general atmosphere is fully conducive to the retainment of information and study material.
Yeah I've been relying on this for about a year and have been really impressed. It's the first restore browser session I've ever used that just works. I never get "oops corrupted session, start over!" errors, etc like I used to get with chrome. Everything just fires back up with all the tabs, all the extensions, even all the different browser windows I had before. And it handles ungraceful shutdowns/restarts really well (which sadly are far, far too common on this early generation Ryzen APU laptop and the current mainline Linux kernel :( ).

The method may be good, but the 86% is very suspicious. For this kind of thing I'd be happy if they can show more than a half accuracy, or 3/4, but 86% looks too precise to be a real number.

Is marriage and divorce just a preference? Like: I shouldn't have bought the blue car, I'll sell it and save up for the red car?

That's what this post feels like. Where is the education and personal growth? Where is the judgemental advice that we don't want to hear (and is probably politically incorrect), but we really should hear anyway? Where is the religion and values?

This was the most sterile article about marriage I've ever read.
I found the start up time for powershell to be quite noticeable in WSL for scripts like that.

If copying is all you're after you can invoke `clip.exe` instead.

Honestly though I just caved and ended up using an xserver with WSL for really smooth copy and paste support. Paste requires a powershell invocation without an xserver.

Definitely recommending X410 (paid) or VcrXsrv (free) -- let's you launch x11 apps too!

Once WSLu is released everything will be even more seamless though.
I would go with this assumption. Best to assume neglect over mal intent.

This behavior was seen before too with the devs behind the new Gmod in Source 2 (Alyx engine). They spent months trying to get in touch with access and it came down to an employee who ended up getting fired for neglecting responsibilities. Now everything seems to be working out and open tooling is being developed.

Yes, attacks on the web are very common for any decent sized site. Just because something is publicly available doesn't mean you get unfettered access to do whatever you want.
Not hypocritic at all. From a legal perspective even illegal made money is money made and therefore subject of taxation. Tecnically you even have to describe the means by that you have come to it. Otherwise you are commiting tax evasion. For example if you sell 100k worth of access to documented child abuse, you have to pay taxes on those 100k. Thats why you have to launder money made from illegal activities
actually i highly dispute that. as good youtube videos have highly skilled tutors or highly skilled professors conveying the content. not random adjuncts, graduate students, assistant professors, and sometimes the occasional skilled lecturer. if i didn’t watch youtube vidoes i would have never have passed. my experience in class was abysmal and going to class to figure out the exam content and then watching videos afterwards resulted in way better grades.

> Firecalc’s Monte Carlo gives me zero failure cycles. Vanguard puts me at 98% success.

It is worth keeping in mind how "failure" and "success" are defined in the context of these models. Deferring retirement while continuing to work, but then dying suddenly, would be regarded as a "success" - since you died before running out of money. With a broader perspective of what we're trying to achieve (perhaps something like: "make the best use out of our life", but this can be highly personal), that kind of scenario sounds like a failure to me.

Similarly, the estimates of those retirement models assume that the past is roughly a representative sample from some distribution that the future will also be sampled from. But there's no guarantee that will be the case.

There's a nonzero chance that some largely or completely uninsurable major disruptive event will wipe out some or all of your retirement capital. Looking back over the last hundred or so years: https://voxeu.org/article/inequality-total-war-great-levelle...

What am I trying to argue? There are many more failure modes other than running out of money before you run out of life. Focusing on reducing risk of one failure mode while not thinking about other failure modes leads to sub optimal decisions.
I don't have a particular platform in mind; discord, slack or even a forum are all ok.

Nice! If I understand correctly, the renderer process is shared across all apps, each app is either a service or a UI process, and all of the apps export an API that's routable from the local machine. Is that right?

Environmental impact is probably the biggest factor. I also just don’t have any motivation or desire to have children.

Parenting is a lifelong commitment and requires responsibilities beyond that which I am willing to commit. I think bringing new carbon generators, who are capable of profound suffering, into the world would be doing a disservice to the environment, everyone around me, myself, and most importantly the child.

Is this an analog of the bricks and mortar retailers that have been decimated this 20 years past? Painters created works and various art display operators showed and sold the paintings. The artists also created numbered/sogned prints and then sold image rights to rights houses.
This NFT creates an intangible, yet uniquely authored work of art.
The old Picassos had their own uniequeness, few were copied - those that were - some were outed, others have merged into the continuum of Picassos work - hopefully zero fake, but we may never know. It is hard to be a Picasso in the flesh, although there are other fleshly artists, they are usually of a distinct style, so they are rare as well as unique and the ease of entry of new master artists is a lengthy process, often over 100 years.
Contrast this to NFT. Ease of entry is minimal, you can create 10,000 before dinner and more the next day - each one a unique NFT. Who will buy them? They must have an 'Aura of Demand' - this is a distillation of their internet presence and Aura and as an NFT influencer. So this NFT must somehow be attached to or created by this person and their 'Aura of Demand'
What this means is they are like bubbles, inflated with the pressure of the 'Aura of Demand' and which will only hold value as long as they are inflated. Once popped, all that will be left is a thin mist. On the other hand, if you borrowed $1,000,000 to buy an NFT that popped, you would still have to repay that loan.
If a work has enduring value it might escape that fate - I have seen few of those - so far.

As a programmer who does a lot of electrical engineering as well: It is not completly out there to question whether programmers are really engineers.

When I want to do the electrical wiring for a house there are close to 2000 norms each stuffed with formula and details, that I have to get right or I will have to fear the consequences.

When I write software it is more like "Lol this framework looks interesting, lets try it together with that code from coolcoder1982 on GitHub".

I know there are programmers who try very hard to specify and write good software, with formal correctness, tests and so on. And maybe those would be closest to the term "engineer", but there are so many people who just aren't, that the whole field suffers.

When something went wrong due to a software error for the past 3 decades it was (and still is) usually excused as if nobody could have done something to prevent it. Software error. Oh god. Nothing we can do. Jikes.

If my electrical installation starts a fire, I pay or go to jail. If the norm I based it on was wrong and that started the fire, the norm will get changed and everybody from now on has to follow these updated rules. Existing buildings might need to be updated. There are laws specifically regulating how often such checks have to be done. Because this is what engineers do: they follow boring norms, try to apply them to the problem and if they fail they personally suffer for it. In fact all that stiffness, all that lack of fun, all these rules can be seen as the engineers way of surving their career without landing in jail.

Meanwhile as a software engineer you can write code that processes the healthcare data for millions of people, leak all that data through a combination of bad decisions nobody should have made again since the early ninties and still stay a programmer, Buffer overflows, SQL injections, DIY crypto, unsalted MD5 hashing, you name it.

Again: maybe individual people have higher standards (me for example), but the lived practice is so bad, calling it engineering would really border to an insult against those who really put their careers, families and wellbeing on the line in other engineering professions.

If electrical engineering was like programming electrical fires and electrical shocks would be the leading cause of death.
How to Prevent Your Smart Home from Being Hacked
Ok, well if you want to do your part to contribute to the genetic excellence of the human race, don't use medicine. If you get an infection, instead of using antibiotics, just let it kill you. Don't get glasses, just let your bad vision get you killed. How far do you want to take this? I'm sure you can increase the immunities of future humans by drinking out of puddles like dogs do. It doesn't seem to make dogs sick, presumably because all the dogs in the past with weaker immune systems died, probably with a lot of suffering.

I doubt you do any of these things, because you aren't willing to accept the low chance of survival-to-adulthood that typical wild animals have. It may keep their genetics in tip top shape, but is that really what you want?
Interesting! Some way to distinguish pointers from integers is kind of a sine qua non for memory safety; I've been kind of thinking along the lines of Smalltalk object descriptors, where each memory allocation is in a "segment" of its own, into which you can index with integers. That would save you from debugging segfaults. (But then, so does Hindley-Milner typing, and that doesn't cost a bounds-check on every memory access.)

The part that so far puzzles me is how to do this without losing too much of Forth's simplicity.

Pelc's proposal is to add scratch/index registers A and B (notably, not segregating integers from pointers) and base pointers X or LP (the frame pointer) and Y or UP (thread-local data pointer). His motivation seems to be primarily efficiency and clarity rather than memory-safety.

Probably you want at least LP and UP to be callee-saved. If you make LP into an additional stack rather than just a register, then you save yourself a Y> >R on entry to subroutines that allocate stack frames, and half of a R> >Y on exit. (The CPU still has to do the same amount of work, but plausibly you spend less on op dispatch overhead and code space.) Doing the same with the A and B scratch/index registers might make sense, or you could just treat them as caller-saved. At some point restoring individual shallow-bound variables one by one stops being a good tradeoff, and it starts making more sense to put them in a stack frame or instance-variable vector and access them by indexing off a base pointer.

Adding a small number of local-variable registers like this is kind of a pain for hand-programming, though, as opposed to as a compiler target. Instead of having to remember whether the quantity two levels down in the stack is the voltage or the current, you have to remember whether the A register is currently the voltage or the current. Much easier to say 0 VALUE VOLTAGE 0 VALUE CURRENT, or maybe VARIABLE V VARIABLE I, and then your code is always explicit about which one it's expecting. So I doubt Pelc's proposal can be justified on the grounds of clarity, rendering it merely a speed hack.
