This is actually more focused, specifically on the effect the pandemic has on how many new development-related graduates are coming into the market for the next several years.
Context matters so much.

Paul was writing each letter to different churches based on things he knew were happening at that particular church.

A verse without context is popular but has very little meaning.

You need look no further than Philippians 4:13, in which Paul is talking about being able to be content in prison. Context matters.
FAANGs can afford to pay very high salaries. Good for the devs who can get those jobs. But there are quite many companies that cannot match FAANG level of pay but still pay well and have a good environment. Are you saying that unless a company can pay FAANG level, they should struggle to find devs ?
> believing 90% of the profession ix trying to actively manipulate you is just disconnected from reality.

As I wrote in the opening post, once one learns about how the propaganda is done, what the techniques are, you start recognizing it all over the place.

It's like when I took some courses in sales techniques. Then, I'd go to buy a car, and sure enough, the salesmens' pitches were right out of those courses. I never recognized them for what they were before.

Becoming aware of when someone is trying to manipulate you, how they are doing it, and why it works is kind of a superpower.
> Doesn't propaganda require intent?

Not at all. In fact, effective propaganda will have its targets repeating it explicitly and internalizing it as a frame to other things. If nobody did that, propaganda wouldn't matter.
Benchmarks? No. That's just my personal experience with different computers. (And by the way, the faster than SSDs claim does not include startup time.)

Can one still benchmark Windows? Most proprietary software requires explicit authorization from the seller nowadays. (I'm quite certain those clauses are illegal here, it's not because of it that I didn't benchmark, but I expect to find none on the web because of it.)
The evidence that radicals have already successfully overtaken Western universities is overwhelming, and the evidence that these radicals are in the process of taking over secondary education is also readily available for anyone who is interested.

If you are actually looking for some eyewitness accounts, Jordan Peterson has many podcasts where he interviews specific people that have experienced the ideological takeover themselves, including:

* Yeonmi Park: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yqa-SdJtT4

* Dr. Rima Azar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIw8mH7ZpFY

* Bret Weinstein: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O_gW4VWZ5c

He has also interviewed one person who lost his job fighting the takeover in high school:

* Paul Rossi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysQBegyQP8A

He's also interviewed a self-identified liberal and former employee of New York Times that witnessed the takeover at the Times. Starting at minute 8 the conversation diverges into talking about her experience at University.

* Bari Weiss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFTA9MJZ4KY&t=12s

Bari Weiss says it herself in this podcast, loosely quoted since I don't remember it exactly: If you as a liberal can't see the danger in what is happening, then you have your blinders on.

I would say the same holds true of people who can't see the takeover in education, which is already mostly complete.

Edit: I found the Bari Weiss quote at 43:06: "I have to be honest. At this point, if one can't see the way that this language has been hijacked and used as a kind of trojan horse strategy to smuggle in a hardened, zero-sum identity politics view of the world, to smuggle in a view of the world in which we have collective guilt or collective innocence literally based on the circumstances of our birth, that smuggle in a deeply anti-capitalist position, to smuggle in essentially a leftist illiberalism, then, I'm sorry. You have blinders on! The evidence is so overwhelming at this point.... I think it's because admitting that's true, is extremely psychologically scary, and socially scary, if you are a liberal."

I think most HR departments are hoping people can't do math, and as such, raises should be expressed in after-inflation-and-taxation values. If we force credit-cards and car loans to use a standard annual easy to understand APR format, why not enforce simplicity on our incomes too.

I think my last raise, after inflation and income tax changes were taken into account, ended up being something like a 0.1% increase. I'm happy I'm employed and all, but lets stop pretending I got a "raise".
No, you're forgetting the most important component of middle and senior management - the taking on of responsibility. We can all throw around anecdotes of CEOs that never pay for crimes, but in the operation of a company if you can keep the machine moving smoothly, the job is actually not very demanding on a daily basis.

The catch is that you're absolutely on the hook when things don't run smoothly in ways that individual contributors never are. How do you fix processes, people, and tools to resolve immediate problems and improve effectiveness of processes over the long term? How do you liaise effectively with senior management to affect change? How do you tell someone or a group of people that their job is being eliminated? Those aren't frequent tasks, but when they happen they are highly demanding. In management you need to soak up responsibility like a sponge - for a good operations manager, their idle time isn't a function of being lazy, it's a function of having paid it forward in process design while ironically amassing liabilities each day for when shit hits the fan.
The structure of a revolution-- it usually begins when the rabble acts up and no authority is willing or able to stop them. So, 1 out of 1,000 users seek quasi-religious vengeance on Twitter and the mechanisms that used to inform the other 999 don't work. The NYT picks up toxic views of the rabble and reports them as mainstream, which the rabble have converted to a weapon in itself.

Most revolutions I've read about, large and small consist of an authentic breakdown in or reorganization of, society. Here and now, seems like we're actually discussing an antifeature of manufactured social technologies combined with capture or weakening of traditional media.
The (federal) government can print money. States can issue debt. There is no reason governments cannot give the same amount of cash to everyone, thereby not punishing those who played it safe.

The constant bailing out of only those who take risks is just socialization of risk and privatization of profit, I.e. corruption.
This is what we're trying to solve at Clerk, (https://www.clerk.dev) and it's been harder than we've expected, especially in regards to local development environments. Although we think we’ve made it seamless! Would love your opinion.

However, we're definitely not aiming it at non-programmers. I don't think completely general low/no-code solutions will ever take off. Everyone wants things far too custom, and at some point you won’t be able to beat the programming language of the time. Companies like retool are doing a great job in specific verticals — and I think it will always stay that way.

I think the next generation of dev-tools are going to be pretty impressive, especially with how easy and modular React components are — I’m bullish that React will become “low-code”
If there were more companies where you could work 3-days a week with 60% pay without requiring any special approval, I'm sure they would improve retention and attract a lot of candidates. It seems like this would work well with the move towards part-time remote setups that many companies are trying out now. FAANG companies pay their employees very well but their average tenure per employee is still very low.
If you try to use inheritance, object slicing by far.

How is not relaying all information different from selecting information to relat?

As to misrepresenting information, the same subset of information could be seen as fair by one group and misrepresentation by another group.

What matters is the purpose of the activity. If one consistently spreads selective information from which one stands to gain in terms of money or power, I’d say that’s a problem, whether you call it propaganda or not. On the other hand, other types of selective information we could call “propaganda” (e.g., anti-drug or pro-savings commercials) might actually be beneficial to the society.
>Cancel culture will make racism and sexism worse.

I completely agree with that.

Just to keep an eye on matters, and you never know how you need to set up your life going forward, lately I've made an attempt to eavesdrop on snatches of private conversations.

I'm blown away by how radicalized people are becoming, and not in a way that progressives would like. Formerly, these people were essentially indifferent. Now, not so much.
Or we could try moving away from the full-time thing and run the field under a contract model instead of initiating an arms race?

This crunch is entirely the fault of the c-suite.
I agree. It is a different type of work, but it is a lot of work nonetheless. There is a greater degree of flexibility afforded to executives and many consider the actual work much more desirable. I think many have trouble understanding the value that a good executive brings and seeing the types of work that they do as "real."
So, the American Civil Religion?

Dangerous History Podcast with Prof CJ
https://profcj.org/ep124/

"Ever get the sense that the government and politics in the United States is kinda cult-y? If so, CJ thinks your spidey sense is justifiably tingling, and what you’re picking up on is the phenomenon known as the civil religion.

Join CJ as he discusses:

The concept of civil religion

The origins of the American civil religion, and a brief word on the scholarship on the concept

Some of the overtly religious elements that can be found in American government and politics, including: dogmas, rituals, sacred texts, holy places, sermons, sacrifices, sacred days, spells/mantras/incantations/prayers, music, sacred histories/narratives, temples, symbols/totems, priests, and saints

The ways in which people of different cultural and ideological predilections can — just like with conventional religion — interpret the civil religion in order to make it fit their preferences

How voting fits into this civil religion, and why CJ thinks a reasonable person should reject the civil religion — whether they are theists or not

>So I should be fully leveraged to the point where not getting rent will cause me to default immediately.

It is not immediately. This has been going on for a year.

>This is a frustrating thing as someone who saves and has a safety net and other fallbacks in place.

It is one thing to save, but many people are not able to save for a year or more. They may have lost their job AND no longer get any rent money for a year.
Well, no doubt it all comes from good intentions. (With which, you know, the road to hell is paved.)
I’m getting some weird horizontal scrolling and a few layout issues on Safari / iPhone 10 on the homepage.

The logo tweak looks good (it’s gone in the right direction) but it’s about the most minimal “rebrand” I’ve seen for a while! (Nothing wrong with that I guess)

I feel some of the typography on the website could be improved to better compliment the logo though. Some slightly odd font/styling choices there.

The letters to the churches are relevant today. They aren’t cannon to point out the church at Corinth has this particular issue and it doesn’t apply to anyone else.

You’re pointing out that scriptural context is important, and you’re right. These verses, in full context, are about divisions in the church.
I hope other people got the chuckle out of your comment that I did.
My current backup strategy is to backup the whole filesystem. I run services in actual VMs, not docker containers, with disks mounted from LVM volumes which allows me to take snapshots and back them up live without needing to shut them down. I'm using bup to do the actual backups to a server I'm keeping in my home. I wrote a few custom scripts to backup and restore servers, and keep a history of the last x days, y weeks and z months. That way it gives me more time to figure out if something's wrong, as it's hobby stuff that I'm not checking every day.

My advice for OP would be to 1/ ditch tarsnap. A backups tool that runs for hours without any feedback ? A restore tool that fails if the files are too big ? Everything extremely slow ? Just forget it. 2/ keep more than 3 days of backups. It's too short if you make a mistake, it took 3 days to recover from this one already. 3/ backup everything. Don't try to pick and choose files, you're likely to forget something, and if not now then some time later when you create a new file but forget to add it to the list of things to back up.

From what I understand, that's 50,000 pre-generated transactions pumped directly to the mining node. Not 50,000 transactions spread across hundreds of non-mining nodes and relayed to the mining node. There's a huge difference. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Either way, bitcoin the protocol can handle waaaaaay more transactions than the BTC devs have constrained it to.

I was aiming to abandon judgments of things and had no idea it meant how my body reacts to things would change, that I'd effectively disable disgust in myself, that country music would become rockin (and that I'd enjoy all other forms of music, food, smells, drinks, and people...children went from obnoxious to adorable in weeks).

The intention was to try something very broad that would likely cover moral judgments. I did make a conscious decision, but the side effects were for sure happy accidents.

No, in the sense that other users had to do the same thing in order for flags to 'win' over upvotes. Yes, in the sense that your flag probably had more effect than you assumed it would.

I wouldn't say you were super wrong about how the system works or is intended to work! I'd say you and the other flaggers misapplied the site guidelines in this case. You're right that it's moderation's job to correct for such failure modes.
`progress` (https://github.com/Xfennec/progress) and similar can be very helpful too depending on the backup utilities being used (in my case often involving rsync) even if the processes normally have everything set to quiet so no progress information is automatically forthcoming.
You can either give me more money, or make me more attractive to those who will pay me more, so I suppose either way works for me.
Not that they’re required to do so and more choice can be good, but why didn’t they work with DDG? I see they’ve gone ahead and stolen the bangs (!w) feature for themselves.
I'm not saying they should struggle, I'm saying they should re-adjust their expectations on how many/what level of engineers they can get. You can't get greatest level of engineering when those engineers have options that pay them 2-3x what these companies are offering.
It certainly exists and I truly envy the fact it hasn’t affected your life yet. n=1 but it’s affected mine as a recent college graduate and person who works in FAANG.
My tip: provide a bit more information about what people can expect. With all of these types of self-improvement programs (I think of the MITX and Coursera and Udemy courses back in the day that had rigid schedules and coursework due) you can expect a large dropoff between sign-ups and continued effort in the program as the weeks progress.

I think providing a bit more detail about what people will be required to do and what they will receive might help combat that problem (though obviously not solve it).
The real problem is not specific to C++, memory or shared pointers, but as the author mentions later, the fact that "function parameters evaluation order is unspecified".

The problem is similar in C as well.

`printf("%d, %d", i++, i++);` will give you different results depending on the compiler.
Scary, but true. It's 100% inflation. I don't know what else to call it.
As others have pointed out, the idiomatic solution here is to delete the copy constructor if an instance is unsafe to copy — however, I suspect the reason why auto behaves differently from other inference in requiring this to be explicit is probably something along the lines of making it harder to have a dangling reference. It’s shockingly easy to wind up with a dangling reference with fairly innocuous code, something like QString().toUtf8().data() so maybe this makes sense. (Doesn’t help for that case since it’s a pointer to raw data, but you get the picture.)

It is confiscation of property, and an illegal one, since it's not for public use.

Not allowing an owner to exercise all of his rights of ownership is a taking, even if it's not permanent.

You see this often with construction projects that expropriate not only the title to land needed, but also temporary servitudes (leases) on adjacent land for site access or extra room for construction.

Point being, the "temporary" nature of the order, and the fact that the landlord retains title/ ownership, doesn't preclude it from being an (un)constitutional "taking" of private property.

Both; but honestly, the latter was more important. Simply having a name for the reasons why, no matter how hard I tried and no matter how much I really, genuinely, truly wanted to, there were certain things I just couldn't do... that alone was extremely relieving. And infuriating. And vindicating. But mostly, genuinely relieving.

I was able to accept that I wasn't an incompetent fool, incapable of being useful - I had ADHD.[1] That was OK. That meant I could accept what I was bad at, focus on the things I was good at, and use techniques to adjust for the things I've now accepted I'm bad at, instead of incessantly trying to do the same thing over and over that works for other people but ... just doesn't work for me.

Medication has also helped, and I use it on an as-needed basis, but it is not, alone, a cure for anything - it is a tool, often an incredibly helpful one, but still just that. The education and understanding about what ADHD is has been far more helpful, though I'm glad I have the medication as a tool, too.

[1] Incidentally, not understanding your own effect on other people, and devaluing your own contributions and successes? Also a symptom of ADHD. Think about it: most people choose, simply, to try to do the things they are likely to be successful at; they choose carefully. ADHD people do not choose; they can't. They do all of the things they might be excited about, meaning they fail, frankly, at most of them. But in those that they succeed, they are often wildly successful; to everyone else, this is objectively obvious. To the ADHD person, they know they've failed 98 times for every 2 successes, and often fall into a depression (though not as deep as someone who has clinical depression or BPD, unless that's a separate symptom) after nearly every success.
