If the gamer is happy spending his time with his parents and games, it might well be that his principles are aligned around this social connection and activity. It is difficult for me to judge from a distance. Moreover, he might not have any particular principle for his life. I know plenty of folks like that.

You have also used another word - meaning. Is that a synonym for principle?

I am sure the gamer interacts with his parents. I couldn't find anything in the medical literature about excessive gaming either. It is quite possible that he may have regrets on his deathbed like most people. However optimizing your life for the thoughts you will have in your deathbed might not be a great tradeoff if it means doing work that makes you miserable for most of your life.
By "fill their pockets" I mean actively engage in political corruption. The royal families relatively static wealth makes little difference in the grand scheme. The £85m figure from the crown estate mentioned in this article is 0.1% of government spending.

I didn't mean to suggest the royal family are unimpeachable beacons of virtue but that their primary motivations are different to politicians in a way that benefits the country.

Glad it worked for you but you may not like it later.

I stopped contact with all my friends years ago to save my sanity when my life become too much to manage.
I didn't have toxic relationships.
I slowly introduced back a few people and I now talk to 2-3 people.

It was definitely out of necessity but I don't think it was the best thing to do.

If I had enough "mental power" to tolerate talking to other people other than work and family I would have kept my relationships in place.
Basics, these should be obvious, but ...

1) anyone who will work with the person should be a part of the interview process.

2) everyone in the interview process must have a copy of the candidates resume

3) everyone in the interview process must have READ the resume

4) foreach, pre-written question, you should have a list of expected answers and what you would score them.

Typical interview consists of 3 question categories, with a forth being money which is a trump issue in most cases (if too expensive then cannot afford them, therefore a no).

Write your questions to support giving a score in each of these categories: Can they do the job, Can they get along, Will they do the job.

Can they do the job is answered by their technical skills as listed in the resume. These skills you need to validate in the interview. I typically ask them to explain what they did / what was their role in a recent project. Expanded with what challenges did you encounter, how did you overcome them. Based on the level of detail, I know if they did it or attended meetings where it was discussed (surprising how often people list meeting attendance as skills).

Communication can fall under the topic of 'can you do the job' as well as 'can you get along'. During the interview, I will ask technical questions where I expect the person to know the answers, and I am just looking for a yes / no. Then I hit them with my zinger, 'Whats the difference between A and B' (with both of the A and B being things they said they knew). In the old days it was typically the difference between a B Tree, and a Binary Tree. No one remembers the difference, not even me, not even after reading it, but I know they are different. The scoring on this is: -10 for a BS answer (I write what they say down, because I need to validate it), 5 for 'I do not know' or the correct answer, 8 for 'I do not know, but I know where to find the answer', 10 for 'I do not know, but I know where to find the answer' and they include the answer in the thank you note (I hate the thank you note, but it does provide value).

Can you get along - that is various people interacting. IMHO 10% of the people in the world do not like you for no good reason. You dislike 10% of the people in the world for no good reason. (hopefully those 10% are the same). That said, you have to gauge how tightly they need to interact with someone as to how valuable their opinion about being able to work with them is. I like the other comment about see how they interact with people who are completely non important. Consistent behavior is a good thing.

Will you do the job - This gets down to why they want the job, besides the cash. Everyone wants money, what you need to determine, if you hire this person for x dollars a year, will they leave to a competitor for x + y dollars. (where y is 10% of x or less).

You must take notes during the process. After the interview score them. Have everyone score them. A common tactic is to try to be the first or the last to interview because people favor them. If you score immediately then you quantify your choice, and not a whimsical decision.
You shot some strawman here. You don't have a freedom or right to be in sterile environment when you are out in public space. The germs are out there, deal with it rationally and with respect to other people.

> Honestly, on the balance, I don't think any of the examples you mentioned would do that much to my general happiness. I care about the other things in life so much more than about processor performance.

Current essential advances in civilisation that I'm sure you enjoy, such as healthcare, are fundamentally reliant on processor technology developed in the US after the war. If we'd left it to European countries our standards of living would be much reduced.
I got flickering when looking at it on my iPad. I’m not sure if that was a deliberate attempt to emulate a CRT (and I don’t remember any of the CRTs I had when I was a kid flickering that bad, although I have certainly used some terrible CRT screens that flickered a lot).

Certain parts of the past are not worth emulating :)

This sounds very similar to the naming scheme used in Portuguese, which interestingly differs from Spanish. In Portuguese the five workdays are numbered starting from two, because the first day is Sunday which isn't numbered but has - like Saturday - its own name.

Re this thread specifically, I suspect medicine is viewed differently in the US than in the UK. There's certainly an impression, imo, of the profession in the US that's derived from the upper percentiles of the earning potential here; I've heard (but am not sure) that the range is less extreme in countries with superior healthcare systems.

Do not believe this is correct. In 2016, London was No. 7, after 6 American cities; it was ahead of Beijing and Shanghai individually, though not collectively [1]. The next European city is Paris, in No. 16, after Chicago, Austin and Mumbai.

Need to get rid of the leading spaces on all lines except the "int fileno" line. Can also forgo the "here doc" and just save the lines between "flex" and "eof" to a file. Run flex on that file. This will create lex.yy.c. Then compile lex.yy.c.

The compiled program is only useful for filtering chunked transfer encoding on stdin. Most "HTTP clients" like wget or curl already take care of processing chunked transfer encoding. It is when working with something like netcat that chunked tranfser encoding becomes "DIY". This is a simple program that attempts to solve that problem. It could be written by hand without using flex.
Actual reality is that they aren't in majority of cases despite representing a larger percentage of college graduates.
> Edit - the project does dearly need a crypto spec. "Uses state-of-the-art cryptography algorithm" claim begs to be described to be valid.

It does not need a spec. It just needs to put a small print on "algorithm" and mention that it is using a cryptography library called libsodium. That's it.

As for the armchair field marshal cryptographers ranting around and nitpicking "useful projects", they are the same ones who praised Signal for their actual "state-of-the-art cryptography algorithm" for end-to-end encryption until they added a cryptocurrency coin in the messenger. Same with Keybase.

At least this project does not have such frivolous features and is only using libsodium like everyone else.

It is very easy to give "expert" criticism (constructive or not) on an open source project (since the project is transparent) but it is much harder for the critics to dive in and fix the aforementioned issues themselves. I would have much more respect for those who do both.

This please. I feel like "How to Get Away with Just PostgreSQL" and the GP comment falls squarely under being too preoccupied with whether you could, you didn't stop to think if you should.

Whatever happened to use the proper data structures for the job? PostgreSQL and MySQL are, at the end of the day, b-trees with indices. Throw in relational properties and/or ACID too. Those aren't properties you need or want in a queue structure.

I know I don't have a solid argument against not doing it; it's just experience (and dare I say, common sense) telling me not to. Not quite like parent but I spent the first two years of my professional career in a team that had the brilliant idea to use DBs as queues. The big task I partook in for that stint is moving them off that v2 into a v3 which used---wait for it---Redis. Everyone's quality of life improved with every migration, proportional to the size of the v2 cluster we retired.

There’s been research on this point and it supports your thesis. After adjusting for applicant scholastic aptitude, the additional benefit from attending an elite school is “generally indistinguishable from zero.”

Excerpt from article*: In November 2002, the Quarterly Journal of Economics published a landmark paper** by the economists Stacy Dale and Alan Krueger that reached a startling conclusion. For most students, the salary boost from going to a super-selective school is “generally indistinguishable from zero” after adjusting for student characteristics, such as test scores. In other words, if Mike and Drew have the same SAT scores and apply to the same colleges, but Mike gets into Harvard and Drew doesn’t, they can still expect to earn the same income throughout their careers. Despite Harvard’s international fame and energetic alumni outreach, somebody like Mike would not experience an observable “Harvard effect.” Dale and Krueger even found that the average SAT scores of all the schools a student applies to is a more powerful predictor of success than the school that student actually attends.

Well yes, but then there's tons of jobs with well established institutions that still fairly ok( compared locally) and your work/life balance with 35-40h/week + almost 30 days holidays isn't too bad at all.
If you need a pandemic and being told to not see people to sort your friendships, maybe you need to re-evaluate your priorities and sort out your friendships more often.

Why are we talking about the 'Queen' like she's a private citizen who could cash out, and take all that money to a privately owned island in the Bahamas?

Being 'Queen' is a job. She's effectively the CEO of a company (which is why it's informally called 'the firm'). She also works hard and has worked hard as a key member of the firm all her life.

Being upset at the Queen for being rich, is like being upset at the board members of an international bank. It's not her personal money, that she can take with her if she stopped being the Monarch, in fact she has less of an option to do that.

The Monarchy does so much for this country via tourism and and international relations, that we'd be worse off without them. Calculations have proven that they MAKE money for the country despite the huge cost in keeping the institution running.
There's usually a certain amount of exemptions already. Things like not requiring audits for companies below certain turnover etc.

GP didn't blame it on the immigrants but on the old money elites who first demanded former Eastern Bloc countries in the EU and then millions of immigrants.

In a real market economy, they'd have to raise wages instead. But no, undercutting local workers and cram new arrivals into the already overheated rental market, the old money vultures get even richer.
Your logic is flawed. That happens when following some ideology.

I'll dig out the report I'm thinking about, but the data in yours is either from 2016 (report date) or 2012 (where they say at least some of their data is from).
My advice is not to try, because the blast radius of getting it wrong can be large, the most hazardous form being a quoted sudo bash -c on the other side.

For any one-liner of sufficient complexity such that the quoting matters, I’ll instead invoke the shell remotely and pipe command(s) to it over the transport of stdin.

Special case: when data must be read from stdin, I’ll scp the line to a mktemp’d file and invoke that.
So employ people on fixed 3 month contracts, or even by day. You’ll have to pay more of course.

> My Home button is gone, why. I put it there on purpose!

Previously the home button was there by default. In 89 it's gone by default but can still be added back with right click -> customize toolbar. My guess was that Mozilla found very few users using it (I personally didn't).

> There are no borders to any of the background tabs. None. This makes "focus" harder because your brain needs to guess the borders rather than use existing demarcation. This would-be modern minimalism fad needs to be abolished, preferably by sending it to chillax in the Gulag somewhere.

> The tabs are not really distinguishable from one another. The official reason is some marketing nonsense like tab focus and whatnot - look, if a person struggles to "focus" on their tabs, then the browser UI revamp is the least of their problems.

Seems strange to have these two paragraphs directly after each other. Claiming that the new style is bad because it requires more focus, then - when addressing Mozilla's claim of the opposite which is possibly backed by user research - immediately disregarding the whole topic of focus.

There's some amount of entitlement in that exclamation, though. The world, I feel, does not actually owe you to make any sense, or move in any predictable, safe pattern. The world will shift, and leave you behind.

Feeling resentful about that is just unproductive. (To take a slightly trolling tone, can you imagine how a lot of racists (BLM) must feel? Or religious fundamentalists, homophobes feel (gay marriage). The world does not owe them anything.)
That's a little bonkers. From my perspective, if the entire EU economy grew as fast but in the US the biggest companies grabbed everything, that is a sign that conditions in the EU are going to be better, and that the fertile soil of innovation is going to be in the EU and NOT the US.

That would be 'cos in my analysis (heavily influenced by concepts of artificial life and the genetic algorithm) concentration is devastating for innovation past local plateaus. It's not just 'the consumer', it's basically premature optimization, and it's a very serious concern.
There're a few such tools, e.g. TrebleShot and NitroShare. Does this improve something over the current solutions or is an alternative? Also Snapdrop and ShareDrop are two web apps offering similar functionality. Good choices in case someone doesn't want to install anything.
That’s the US M.O. any innovation gets bought out by successful companies.
Indeed. It’s tiring for me to keep reading papers written by people who believe in money as if it were the only driving force in people’s lives.
