Most of young & single are going mad in home isolation. They want to come back for social connect, better worksrations, free convenient food and many such..
Why do the extroverts want to go back? Why would they rather spend time harassing introverts instead of spending more time at a coffeeshop or a gym or wherever other extroverts go?

And, I dunno, if that's how they conduct business I'm not sure I want to try their other stuff and find out what corners they cut there.
It's still encrypted over the wire. And Pavel Durov isn't exactly a bootlicker (see his history with Russia).

That said, who knows who has access to Telegram servers.
Another way to spot a crypto scam is if it has a blockchain.
Optical computing has been around a very, very long time. It is actually never as good as digital computing because even though it is very fast, the dynamic range of the sensors is usually the limiting performance factor. Floating point, however, has practically infinite dynamic range. So digital almost always wins.
The parent comment was about vetting information. Clearly the media didn’t do that WRT the WMDs.
It's not just "some" caveats: then auto-unwrapping means that you cannot use then as fmap reliably. In JS there is no such thing as Promise<Promise<Number>>. You cannot await/then the outer promise so that you can do something with the inner promise.

In practice it's not too much of a problem, but it does mean that if you use some FP library, you cannot trivially wrap a promise to make it a monadic type that will work with the library's monad utilities.
People at my office sometime wonder why I have a low PTO balance yet have been there for 5 years. It's exactly the same as the Friday comment.

Sometimes I'm just really not feeling like work and take a day off. Unless something important is happening that day, management could care less. Sometime I stay up late the night before because something caught my attention outside work and I couldn't put it down. I'll take the next day off.

Helps that my company have a seemingly generous PTO policy (at 5 years it a bit more than a day per paycheck (every other Friday)). If you're not a problem employee everyone just wishes you a good day.

But, I don't think I really felt burnout before the pandemic. Working alone has pushed me to the point where focusing feels like a strenuous task. My most productive stints (in my subjective self-opinion) are when I'm working with other people on a call (my role is basically half research / half implementing it).

Part of me hopes going back into the office will help calm my mind but I'm just not sure.
Using technology to silence people is technology
That’s an example of a specific monad, not the definition of the general concept of a monad.

Also, JS promises are not really monads. They lack denotational equality, so they can’t be said to obey the monad laws.
I mean that they saw it from in the air at the same distance, and all most likely mistakenly thought the object was farther away from them than it actually was. Especially since they have all been in communication and crosstalk plants seeds in other people's heads. If one pilot says "hey that object looks like it's 10 miles away" then all the other people will by default have that thought, even if it is actually only 5 miles away. This is true especially when in the air because it is extremely difficult to judge distances and sizes.

FAA doc on visual perception in the air:

https://www.faa.gov/pilots/safety/pilotsafetybrochures/media...

Failures in visual perception for pilots and people in boats are widely known shortcomings of human eyes. We just aren't evolved to see things at that scale accurately.
Have you tried it. Way different than freecad. You set constraint of equality or whatever. You leave it open ended and now you can add those same constraints in the 3D and transform your shape in this hybrid feel, that feels like your are modelling an equation with your hand.

That being said Freecad is way more versatile and you can do almost anything. Solve space is more like the equivalent of building a freecad model out of clay. You can always adjust it but you don’t end up with anything more usable than a stl file in reality, which you can then import into freecad lol.

Openscad and opencascade are for CAD program designers imho . Although version control is so appealing.

"I know that I'm a complete failure in life."

I am much, much older than you, and how I wish I was your age and had pretty much my whole life ahead of me.

You could still accomplish so much, if that's what you want to do.

Just think of it. Could you save one life? I bet you could. Maybe you could save many lives, if you set your mind to it... but even saving one life is a lot more than many people do.

Often it is service to others that is most fulfilling. Consider volunteering at some place that's doing work you value. Apart from helping others in ways you care about, you can connect with others who share your deepest values, which are the best types of connections to make.. much better than the kind of connections you're likely to make on Tinder.

You could also pursue many other paths. You are pretty much all potential at this point.

Regarding loneliness, I've found that one of the best cures for that is learning to enjoy your own company and be your own best friend... that takes learning to like, even love yourself (not in a way that sets you above or ahead of anyone else, but in the sense that you have compassion for yourself and take care of yourself instead of being self-destructive and full of self-loathing). Be curious about the world, develop new interests, learn, do. Once you like yourself and enjoy your own company, you'll find others are more likely to enjoy your company too.

But you do have to reach out to others too.. not just cocoon yourself up at home or swipe on dating sites. Try going in person to meetups of people who share your (hopefully many) interests. Then, try to really connect with some of these people on a more than superficial level (this can take time and effort, but that's the only way it's going to happen.. there are no shortcuts). Try to find people who inspire and motivate you, and avoid those that bring you down and sabotage you. And, of course, don't self-sabotage.. that's the biggest trap. Many people are their own worst enemies. Try to find the wise course of action and actually follow through.

I could go on, but this post is way too long already. Hope some of it helped...
Having read the linked Bible passage, I think it probably means "A wise man is humble. We are all dust in the wind. Nothing you do matters anywhere near as much as most people like to imagine."

In a thousand years, the sun will still rise. The wind will still blow. Your name will probably not be remembered.

We have trouble coming up with solid info on historic kings. We know vastly less about historic commoners.

Even if you are relatively well off and important in the world today, in the grand scheme of things, you still don't really matter all that much. So check your ego at the door.
I guess I'll keep wearing my masks, and maybe add sunglasses as well.
Given that HN is regularly read (and commented on) by some of the top minds in world IT, I personally feel it would be a travesty simply not to mention some of the biggest issues and topics facing the world today.

I personally feel there's nothing more important than engaging those high profile and influential minds on these big issues if we have any hope of solving or at least improving them.
But what if the employee can't see that the shelve is empty and forgets to restock? Then people will open the door and the product will actually not be there which is incredibly frustrating.
How did you learn C?
I am learning C right now and am curious to hear how others went about it.

I have a hobby project I want to speed up so I thought this is the perfect opportunity to crack that K&R book that's been on my shelf for the past decade in pristine condition.

Am about 3/4ths of the way through it now and whoa page 123 is blowing my mind a bit... stopping there for now.

There are some pretty terrible teachers and books out there too I have come to learn.

CS50 from Stanford and Kris Jordan's CS211 from UNC on youtube have been a great help. Curious if anyone else has any more high quality free C videos like that?
Civilization has at its root the concept of cities, so by that standard it's fair to say that large parts of North America had no civilizations.

Whether this is particularly important is open to debate; I prefer to think that it is relevant (cities allow for specialization) but should not be considered a sign of sophistication.
Nowadays, Facebook is actually groups of people. Whatever group may be. It's toxic and I'm talking about IT, Anime, cars, food or whatever.

But at the end of the day, it's people.

I think the downvotes are because it kind of sounds like you didn't read the article and are saying the things that the author directly states as a "misconception":

"It is a common misconception that "monad is the same as flatmap", which has even made its way into some "monad libraries" in non-Haskell languages. flatmap is not "monad". flatmap is the particular implementation of the monad interface on lists. If you understand flatmap, you understand the monad implementation for the list datatype... you do not understand "monads" in general."

Maybe you think the author is wrong, but your comment didn't read like you were addressing these points.
Yes, but for the internet!

Lots of great advice in this thread. I hope you don't get overwhelmed thinking about what and how to apply them to your own life. Just remember that it's better to do something than to do nothing. That you're still considering trying dating apps means that you still have hope. As such, suicide is off the table because it makes the possibility of happiness in this current life 0%. Please don't give up. I'm 25, roughly in the same situation, without a decade of programming and mathematics discipline to show for it. I'm going to keep trying. I even gathered the will to study and put myself into college recently. I was able to apply for healthcare assistance recently too. One step at a time, I'm progressing toward some place better than where I was before. We're not losers. The real losers are the ones who give up before the game ends.

One actionable thing you can do starting tomorrow or when convenient is to start working out. Start with calisthenics and move to lifting weights when you feel comfortable. The most important thing is consistency. You're gonna be doing a lot of work to get to where you want, so you can't stay at the same level of fitness. You need to keep getting stronger, so that your body and mind can handle more and more, so that what were previously mountains become anthills you can walk right over.

Please just give me folders like Telegram did, so I can organize my own chats. I get the point of Spaces and was excited to use it for my homeserver since it helps onboarding new users, but to announce it without support in one of the 3 popular reference clients is just silly.
Ask your work for a stipend so you can purchase a co-working space membership. (Assuming you have one or more nearby.) Remote work most certainly doesn't have to mean only work from home. I also highly recommend finding local meetups (perhaps still online-only at present) centered on technologies or industries you care about. In short, I think it's important to seek out ways to get what you need out of life without expecting your immediate job description to somehow meet those needs.
> Are you saying that only people who are in the worst possible situation (unemployed, in a civil war, with cancer, raped daily, low IQ, blind, …) can talk about having problems?

No. I'm glad that they're tackling their burnout issues by changing professions, but I'm trying to have a conversation about how social and financial issues may keep other people in not as advantageous a position from doing the same. That's all.

"What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?" - Jesus

A good solution to your problem might be to develop a different understanding of the meaning and purpose of life. "Normal" American culture is selling you a false bill of goods IMO.

You could start by reading the Bible. Start with the Gospel of John and Romans. The ESV is a great translation and they have a study bible that is helpful.

Listen/read good preachers/teachers who can help you understand what life is really about: John Piper, Tim Keller, and R.C. Sproul are all great places to start. Each of them have podcasts available.

John Piper has a book called "Don't Waste Your Life" that is available free online and would likely be applicable to your situation. Tim Keller has a book on marriage that might help put your relationship troubles in perspective.

Finally, find a good church and start building relationships with people. Get advice from those who are wise and godly. Any church affiliated with 9 Marks ministries or following their advice on church priorities is likely a good place to start.

This won't be a popular suggestion, and Christ doesn't promise his followers an easy or happy life (just the opposite). But he does offer a meaningful life, wisdom to understand what is wrong with us and the world around us, salvation from sin and judgement (which are the biggest threat to us), and hope for better times yet to come.

One of the things the Bible teaches is that, in significant ways, we are all complete failures at life. But Christ lived and died to offer us redemption from that failure. To give our lives value, regardless of how little "success" we have. No...to redefine "success" and give us something actually worth living for.
It sounds like you are lonely and consumed by work.

The last 1.5 years has been extremely lonely time for a lot of people around the world. Take a little bit of relief in knowing a huge percentage of the entire world is in the same boat as you. You're not alone, you're not unique in this loneliness.

Forgive yourself. This is the most important part. I don't believe you're a complete failure in life, but even if you are, FORGIVE YOURSELF. Tell yourself, okay you made a mistake and you're human, but you forgive yourself and move on. Drop the shackles of shame and anger at yourself by forgiving yourself and move on. Otherwise the shame you feel will never go away. You're exceedingly young, and you can motivate yourself to put yourself in a position to be happy.

As the world starts opening up through the rest of this year, do your best to get out and socialize. Understand that the next couple of years will be hard but learn how to socialize the same way you learn mathematics and programming. Trial and error and many, many attempts. You will get better at it.

You need to find your people. Those that share similar interests or similar sense of humor, etc. People you can talk to in real life. If you can work in person, do this.

Tinder and all online dating apps are 100% based on looks. I am not particularly good looking and when I tried match.com (I'm over double your age) it was a disaster. If I needed to use Tinder today, it would be a disaster as well. But I've been able to find my fair share of girlfriends because I can carry a conversation and I inherently like talking with people. Find others that you can talk to and then try to meet people that way. It sounds hard, and it is. But keep on trying over and over and over again. That's the way you get better.

Trolling can have social value. It can expose the absurdity of a prevailing social movement, as in the case of Oli London, whose parody account acts as a devastating critique of the mainstream trans rights movement and its demands that gender be redefined as a self-sensed property that is assigned through self-identification, and demands pronoun use in accordance with this new definition (which is why university courses now start with each student declaring their personal pronouns).

Non-conformity and conflict are not always bad things. They can be a symptom of disharmony, but the correct solution to the disharmony may be a shifting of the status quo, rather than a stamping out of the dissident voices. The path of least resistance to reducing conflict is to silence dissident voices, but that removes a valuable source of constructive change that reduces conflict in the long run.
I'd say it's a little more rational. People have different life experiences and have reached different conclusions. When they see other people making claims which they "know" from experience to be wrong, they point them out and explain why. As a metaphor, imagine someone who doesn't live in your country making insulting and incorrect statements about it based on a combination of ignorant stereotypes and misinterpreted facts, long-disproven rumors, etc. You go correct them from a position of knowing more. It's the "someone is wrong on the internet" effect, cycling forever.

Also, yes, mentally ill people. I'm sure of it...
This post is totally political. Having very little to do with technology. And the post completely ignores nuances and objectivity. It has already chosen a side.

I guess because that's hip in the woke liberal era.
That's not what symptoms are.

Mostly, but there are legal actions one could stumble into where $5K is pocket change. These typically 'downscale' but they don't necessarily downscale all the way.
I'm pretty sure they've been trying, but our bodies have evolved to distinguish actual sugar from anything else for a very long time.
While I have no issue with controversial posts on HN - high profile, influential tech minds have zero influence over the Israel-Palestine matter. The same is true for many controversial topics.

The President of the United States and Congress barely have any influence over what goes on between Israel and Palestine.

Zuckerberg can't influence the Israel-Palestine context one bit, and he has $100 billion in wealth and controls the world's largest social network. He can't make the slightest of difference, no matter what he believes or wishes were. Zuckerberg is entirely powerless. The same goes for Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Brin, Page, Ellison, Musk and on down the list.

So the 'influential' people on HN? Whatever is less than zero ability to influence this topic, that's the power they possess.

What do you mean with slow camera's? The people I hear the most, are people with high-end phones complaining about this.

So that means, that high-end phones aren't that fast after all? (Because what is high-end actually? Price, performance, both?)

Maybe latency, opening the camera? Or getting image itself?

It is about Tech platforms deciding to side with Israel and silencing palestinians in social media.
We have had plenty of discussions here about social media censorship (especially during covid and trump era). This is a valid discussion as well as it is about human rights.

If we can talk and about Indian and Nigerian, or Chinese censorship against the Uyghurs and the Tiananmen square masacre, then we can talk about Israeli censorship war against the Palestinians as well.

Also Computer Ethics is part of the Computer Science curriculum in most colleges, and part of technology. We are not going to solve this conflict here, but we should know where censorship in tech is being used to suppress the voice of a whole population. I was born in a communist country (Albania), and censorship in media was used to suppress the voice of the people in order to prop up a brutal regime.

"In addition to using social media to incriminate Palestinians, Israel has also used it to muzzle us. In 2016, Israel’s then-Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked boasted that, in the previous four-month period, Facebook had complied with 95% of Israel’s requests to remove Palestinian content on the vague basis of “incitement.” A year later, Israel tried to push the “Facebook Bill” through the Knesset, legislation which would force Facebook to remove any content designated as “incitement.” "

You’d either need to open and close the damn thing 20 times to check your work, or you’d need to update the listings every time your inventory shifted.
