But that's the point entirely. Showers and going up stairs are everyday activities: Most of us know someone that's been hurt on stairs or in the shower: Shower falls cause lots of injuries every year.

The risks become overlooked because of familiarity and it makes it easier to minimize the risks. It doesn't help that the downsides often aren't immediate: It takes some years to develop disease from it, after all. In general, it takes hours for you to wind up in the hospital or harm someone else - but most of the time, much like showering or walking up the stairs, nothing of note happens.
> I stay here because in two years, I'll be 62 and I have a union pension acquired over 37 years. I've spent so much time here that I might as well take that pension and social security and call it quits.

Had they not been locked in by the pension, I'd imagine most of them would've quit, and Frito-Lay would've been force to improve conditions.

I wonder if unions prefer pensions pretty much for the same reason--it allows businesses to abuse workers, forcing them to turn to unions to bargain for better conditions while also keeping them locked in to the business and thus the union.

It was unclear for me too. Though the gist of what I understood around the jargon:

Overvalued companies are driven by the stock market to have unsustainable growth, always more than before or at the very least always going up over time, even with complete market dominance.

Therefore once a company caps out a market only cutting quality or civic duty corners are left and it becomes a knife-fight to the death for all involved; with more literal impacts to the workers and customers (quality of output). Even if a company COULD just allow the profit to stabilize at a long term sustainable level that would benefit everyone most overall; they won't and will instead be driven for short term results.

As an avid Docker user on M1, it’s actually not bad. Docker let’s you choose between Apple’s virtualization and qemu. Apple’s performs better in terms of CPU, but qemu is miles ahead in terms of I/O performance. Neither solution is anything to write home about, but it works well enough. Better than a Pi cluster, though? I think it’d be close. If you’re goal is to run Linux, M1 might not be best solution for now.

That assumes you’re running ARM images—I haven’t tried emulating x86, but I hear the performance is abysmal.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm browsing the same internet as everyone else. The hosts file was dead a decade ago. Ads are served from the same domain as content.

>Also, let it be known, I love how you change what I said - demagoguery - to "bad speech".

You were clearly labeling demagoguery as bad speech.

Yes, government bodies, not individual companies.

>Yes, speech can be limited.

It's not because you can that you should. Some countries limit most criticism of the government.

>People thinking for themselves. That's a good one.

That's what the country is based on (democracy).

>very few people decided what protected classes are. They decided for us.

That's what a elected democracy does (if it was a direct democracy, the same thing would happen, but different people). It's still better than letting companies do what they want.

>In the same way, the government could pass a law saying "No demagoguery."

But they don't, since that'd just be used against people you dislike (here it seems to be "republicans" for you). The government can do what it wants, that doesn't mean it should. Democracy is just trying to do the best thing thinking the majority of people is the least worse tyrant.

Bugs are a fact of life because of sloppy practices. The experience from SQLite is instructive, after a testsuite had been written, matters improved immensely.

> All this will do is drive up the cost of housing as remote workers compete for it

when you stop competing for the same strip of land, 10 miles from the pacific ocean, it turns out there's a sort of stupendous amount of land.

while, yes, there will technically be some competition, in the areas under discussion i don't think it will meaningfully effect housing prices.

(i could divide the amount of land in rural america by the number of possible work-from-home employees and we could figure out what it'll do to the average population density. but, hell, i've lived in these areas, i don't need to.)
The vendor claimed that if the code was out it would be a security risk. The agency claims the vendor needs to protect their intellectual property rights.

Edit: also, they were breached anyway shortly after launch (2018) and then an email went around offerting to sell the code and data from their entire system.

It's steadily declined from a peak of $900k, so this year will be $100k. Correct, margins are not great. I don't plan on selling the business, but mostly because no one would buy it. If I thought I could turn the business around to the point of being a healthy one-man shop, I would definitely not consider looking for a job. But familial obligations require a steady income.

Because you can't get anyone in rural Montana who is capable of getting a job paying Bay Area or NYC salaroies to accept that offer. Adjustment will result in meeting somewhere in the middle but whether that's 25% or 95% of Bay Area salaries is an open question.

When I meet a new person, I like to ask some open ended questions to see if they're a bullshitter or not. If they are, I avoid further contact with them. I make exceptions for younger people or social functions like parties where conversation is meant to amuse rather than inform, of course.

It's an obnoxious habit, in my view; then again frankness seems to offend many. By this I meant he frankly admitting you don't know something or haven't made up your mind, not being rude or callous. I don't consider circumspection or diplomatic tact to be bullshit; that's more of a tacit agreement to avoid painful for disagreeable topics for the sake of expediency.

I don't agree with Martins' conflation of bullshitting with human nature; I think it's a learned behavior that reflects prevailing social mores.

If I read that correctly, I personally would give this answere:

I have the same problems and get into rabbit holes quickly.

After some research on the internet and in my past life (got fired twice this year /o\), I concluded to do a ADHD/ADD assessment. I got Diagnosed with ADHD.

The main thing that changed: I’m more aware of the mistakes I do and notice my behaviors early on and can mitigate the bad parts.

So for me the answere is simply: maybe try todo some online ADHD test and if it indicates a potential diagnosis, do a real one with a psychiatrist.

I'd love to see any midwest company paying those numbers, for a non C-level role. Hell, even trying to get above 100k/annum in the midwest is nearly impossible. Remote work options have made this a bit better; if the company then doesn't offer you "local market rates" bullshit.
And we're further away since nobody bought Schaft from Google, and Schaft was shut down. They had the best humanoid.

I used to work on this stuff in the 1990s. All those things were problems back then. Way too much time spent on low-level mechanics.

It might be possible to handle the size aspect of such multiscale storytelling.[1] Perhaps even down through primary school.

And given a firm grasp of size, and of atoms, it might perhaps be possible to support an integrated and broad modern material science foundation. Maybe... but I'm not being very successful at finding opportunities for exploratory discussion of that. :/

It seems like it could be great fun though.

It's better to understand what people are trying to say than to misattribute false interpretations.

For example, in this case the speaker clearly wasn't trying to equate Romani to swindlers. Any logic arriving at such a faulty conclusion would seem fallacious, presumably due to over-simplification.

> What I also don’t get: why the hell would do I care which NTP implementation is used in most cases.

Because some implementations have time jump while others have it slew it slowly.

On boot-up a jump may be fine to get with ± some number of milliseconds, but once the system is running, there are situations where jumps could be a problem (especially in the negative direction, where a moment is "repeated").

> But honestly as long as when I boot my Debian-derived distro it works as expected why am I going yo go digging into how it works? What can I possibly gain by switching which DHCP client or which NTP daemon I’m using?

Because as a sysadmin it is your job to understand how a system works. There should be very little "magic" happening. Sure there are many times where things Just Working™ is fine (it's why I run a Mac at home), but many others where you should understand why things are working the way they are.

Geology is absolutely fascinating! I'm really amazed at far geologists have progressed in establishing the history of our planet. I have to thank Nick Zentner's YouTube videos(https://www.youtube.com/user/GeologyNick) for getting me into geology. He has a very approachable style for non-geologists.

I've been looking at the geology of Nevada more since the Mina, NV earthquake storm started(2020? I forget). Geologic activity is such a slow process so it's great when you can see a burst of activity like that. I doubt I'll live long enough to see it, but I'm hoping I can see the emergence of a new volcanic cone in the western NV/eastern CA region.

Time consuming?

I worked in a factory for years when I was younger, not too different than what he is describing.

There are some jobs, like the one I have now writing code where you think about them even when you aren't doing them, they invade your dreams. I feel like I am writing code all the time, even when I'm not logged in to the work laptop actually doing it.

There are other jobs where you don't think about them when you aren't doing them, you go home after work and then you stop thinking about work.

The factory job I had was not like either of those, I did not think about work even while I was doing it. My mind was free while my body was getting paid to do work. I could be thinking about anything else other than the physical work I was doing.

I'm getting old, won't be able to write code much longer. The factory job that I used to do doesn't exist now, it's been automated. Save your money, kids.
In reality this added complexity is not always so dramatic, when you have a solid architectural base.

And I believe Windows for example has one.
And windows still runs fine for me without cortana for example. But I have to resort to hacks, to make that change. So I do not demand more features here.

I demand just more control, what features I want to use. That was there and is getting removed for other purposes than complexity of developement.

Nuuk would have been ~60% closer, but not a chance it could handle an A380.

> What I also don’t get: why the hell would do I care which NTP implementation is used in most cases. What I do care about is that it’s running and working.

You should care whether it's SNTP (which only slews and/or steps the clock periodically) or full NTP (which also adjusts the clock frequency, so once it's synchronized, no further slew and/or step is needed). Full NTP is better.

Looking quickly at the manual pages for systemd-timesyncd and systemd-timedated, I can see that systemd-timesyncd is just SNTP, so a full NTP implementation like chrony or ntpsec should be preferred. From what I can see, if you have chrony installed and configured correctly, systemd's "timedatectl set-ntp true" (enable NTP) will prefer to enable chrony instead of systemd-timesyncd (it goes through systemd-timedated which looks at /usr/lib/systemd/ntp-units.d/, where chrony is usually listed first).

(Also, there's some difference between chrony and ntpsec; AFAIK, chrony is much better when you have an intermittent network connection.)

Fascinating. I’ve observed this dynamic too and mentioned it in an earlier draft but cut it.

My guess is that smaller creators have a greater ability to respond to their smaller fan base, deepening these connections. Also, as some creators grow their content becomes more high-production, polished, and #sponsored which might feel less “organic” compared with smaller creators just starting out on a budget.
Sounds quite a bit like you're complaining that they chose/engineered a fruitful field of study. I think I'm missing what the problem with that is.
The key thing: the standard working model for circuit design with Op Amps (see below) are approximations that become good approximations because of their high gain and the typical use of negative feedback when using them.

These rules are non-intuitive if you are thinking raw circuits but are very easy to use if you hold your nose and just take the model on faith (because the model pretty much works all the time).

Only if you design the innards of an Op Amp does the model become less shiny and reality creeps in.

So when you design with an op amp you use certain "simplifying magical assumptions:

1. There is zero input leakage so you can KCL both input and feedback current pretending that the op amp isn't affecting either of these. That's pretty much a valid assumption until you design ultra low current circuits with an op amp. But then you'll likely want to switch to an "instrumentation op amp" of a specific design for such applications. That's <<1% of anyone.

2. The input voltages (+ and -) "magically" can be assumed to always be equal without any external current or voltage seeming to cause it to happen. This is due to the innards of the op amp design plus feedback.

These two assumptions mean that you can apply simply circuit analysis and you quickly attain accurate predictions of how the circuit will work (gain, bandwidth, etc.). Even most EEs work with this. Only analog IC designers go beyond this.
