I'm not sure how you can't afford a house in London with your jobs; maybe you're not as highly paid as you think, maybe you need to save / invest more, maybe your standards for housing are above what you can find in London (truly horrendous overpriced properties).

That said, as a fellow Londoner who is about to leave for sunnier places, I think you can find a better balance in terms of location and compensation.

If you can't work remote for less in your field, learn some coding and spend a couple of years in some medium sized company / startup in London. Not Google, find a place you enjoy working for: most likely you won't have to grind leetcode to pass an interview, you'll get more flexibility, less stress - and you'll get way less money.
I've seen (capable and very smart) people switch jobs, do a bootcamp and earn 80k£ per year 2 years after the bootcamp. Likewise, I've seen people with 15 years experience making 40k£ (and being less effective than the 80k£ person).

Once you have some experience in London as a developer you should be able to land a fully remote gig and then you can work from wherever you prefer.

In terms of motivation, I think I will never be satisfied working for someone else, hence why I decided to run my own business (after both contracting and full time positions). You get to solve a wider array of problems (from accounting, to coding, to whatever is needed), there is no politics, promotions or performance involved. If you do a good job and solve problems for someone else, you get more money, else, you starve.
Spend some time thinking if entrepreneurship is something for you. In case it is, set yourself small goals. Start by thinking where you want to live, how much money would you need, etc. Maybe use your existing savings from the high paid job to purchase a property (surely cheaper than London) and have lower expenses (bills, food, entertainment).

In regards to your partner - life is all about choices and it's too short to waste. Some people care a lot about their career. Some people see it as a rat race.

If you strongly care about living somewhere else and your partner can't find a compromise, maybe it wasn't destiny. I lost a 5 years old relationship because our goals weren't compatible, with me dreaming of running my own business from the beach and her dreaming a safe, high paying government job in her native country.

Best of luck!

Couple that with some of the evidence as to why and you have a pretty good message to get out.

So very many people don't like being told what to do, and all we do is yell at them with commands and imperatives. Personally it has given me a burning contempt for the kind of folks that promulgate this stuff. If someone wants to compel me into action then they need to convince me on its merits, and those merits alone.
I hope they are managing to make a living. I have created music software over the decades, going from making a good living during the shrinkwrap software era, to not being able to support full-time development of a mobile music app. I am impressed that Finale, Sibelius and Dorico can find enough market share to fund development and be competitive.

As an engineer that's had to advise corporate legal on how to look at various things I can assure you that most of it is just risk mitigation and reward. From lawsuits to contracts, it's all the same stuff. That's just how legal people think. I don't think it goes any deeper than that.

This engine is based off a 1990's game called Total Annihilation, Because of this, most of the fans and developers have an affinity towards the more simple graphics that mimic the original game.

Also, there can be thousands of units on the map, and each projectile is physically modeled.

I can submit a patch to an open-source project and everybody benefits ; but if I raise my own animals, the industrial-scale torture continues anyway. How many people need to raise their own animals before the abuse ends? It's not "weak-minded" or even melodramatic to conclude that an animal suffers when it is beaten.

You're right, but you're going to upset a whole bunch of people who think that what people wanted was Debian on a phone, and are uninterested in hearing the last 10 years of market evidence to the contrary.
There are other reasons for deciding not to sell a house after advertising it other than pulling a bait-and-switch scam. Maybe the seller changed their mind about selling it, or realized the house is worth more than they advertised it for. The mere fact that someone placed an ad for their house doesn't legally obligate them to sell it. I'm not a lawyer so don't know what exactly would legally be considered a bait-and-switch, but I presume you'd have to show that the plan all along was to use the initial offer as bait in order to draw a buyer into some other deal.
Here's the actual suit. https://www.classaction.org/media/cottle-et-al-v-plaid-inc.p....

I wrote a post above on my take but TL;DR - I think that the suit is mostly alleging that Plaid doesn't do enough disclosure of what's happening behind the scenes. It suggests that Plaid might sell the data to unrelated third parties, but doesn't support it with any proof. It does support itself with proof that Plaid "sells" data to the app that is being connected to the bank.
I suspect, genarating components from designs is a pain point for narrow subsection of companies which use React. I also suspect those which have this problem are not in a place to pay. Startups with limited runways, agencies with shoestring budgets are not the most lucrative.

> Awesomic does not re-sell human hours like Upwork. Instead, we guarantee a business result.

I don't know what that means though, as a buyer. Like the pricing refers to me getting a dedicated designer, so I assume that means that they are non-shared, i.e. they are only working on my account, however the pricing seems way too low to justify that.

So then I assume they are juggling loads of clients (although in that case, I'm not entirely sure what dedicated means) but then I can't get a feel for how busy these people are and if I'm getting a lot of support or not a lot of support. Particularly considering the prices/savings are benchmarked against a full time employee.

Maybe this is just me though, I would totally use this service but the pricing model is just too opaque and puts me off (but maybe it will work for others?). Is it just me that can't understand what I'm getting?

Like if I want a pitch deck done, which I can estimate will take a great designer a few days, and I want it done by the end of the week, what subscription level do I get? Or do you just name your subscription level price and I have no way to estimate it prior to you giving me a quote?

But again, it's probably just me not 'getting' it.

I get spam texts fairly often in the UK, and I almost never give out my number, so no idea where they come from.

I also occasionally get calls from unknown numbers, which I don't answer, but if I look them up are usually associated with spam calls. My grandmother also gets them fairly often on her landline, usually of the "there is a problem with your computer" scam variety, but sometimes trying to sell her insurance for a random appliance.
I might say "you've been lied to" rather than "you're totally wrong", but basically yeah. The US followed precisely the strategy you're suggesting for most of the occupation, the Afghani government could not or would not reliably channel the funding towards real schools, and the US found it expedient to avoid pushing too hard for accountability.

> I believe Anki memorization + regular conversational practice is second only to full immersion as the best learning strategy.

I'd extend this:

Memory + Synthesis = Useful learning strategy

Blindly learning facts with no intent to synthesize them into something else will help you win at trivia contests. Learning to integrate those facts into something else (like conversation, with languages) is how you effectively learn. Both aspects are needed in order to become effective at whatever subject you're studying.

That said, with Anki or any other tool these rules are incredibly handy:

I worked in the industry a while back when those prices were set, and he does not even mention several factors 1.) games sold in stores required a concrete date for shelf space with an agreement with large retailers for shelf placement and kiosks, better cost the publisher more concessions IIRC, the game publisher sold the game for half the retail price to retailers so they were making say $30 out of the $60, ballpark estimates of sales were used to set budgets and almost everyone tried to time release for optimum sales period of Christmas shopping, setting the date - often years in advance, so that's why the time crunch problem was/is an issue, most games sold an extremely high percentage within a month of release often > 90% at least at full retail price (I can't remember if the publisher had a penalty for those that didn't sell after a while) 2.) many console games required a contracted number of actual physical media burned at a certain date so the publisher had to predict sales, a popular console might have limited timeslots for production to sell to game publishers and overshooting the mark on physical media is a loss and undershooting means lost sales at retail price so this makes console more high stakes than PC games in a way for publisher (Nintendo being console maker and publisher changes this somewhat for them alone), also the surcharge the console makers charged publishers was $10 per physical media produced in PS3/360 days, this had not changed from Game Boy days when we looked into making a new cartridge game when those games sold for $30-$40. Obviously the situation has changed and I don't know what the numbers are now, and some of these are alleviated/changed by the availability of digital only versions of games.
PoS is a good one also. In retail and restaurants it means 'point of sale', but also the systems and software behind the sale, which often translate a lot of business logic and and CRM-type stuff.

Of course if you're developing one and you mention the PoS POC you could end up in hot water.

Living in Europe, I genuinely had no idea cards with magnetic stripes were still in use. I thought everything used chips nowadays.

I still prefer my card for contactless payments though; using my phone is not really much more convenient since my phone case holds the card anyway and it at least works consistently.
Yeah, I concur. Furthermore, I can use macOS's spaces for different workspaces and put different browser tabs and windows into different spaces for work, fun, etc.

To the OP: I will say that seeing the tree of how I got to the current page sounds interesting if I'm researching something. However, the vast majority of my browsing is just that – browsing. I'm not usually researching something. (So maybe I'm not the target audience?)

> You can rename your pages to organize yourself and find them faster

Yeah, I don't want a tool that makes me do more work. I'm never going to rename my pages, just like I'm not going to tag all of my photos or emails or files so that the Find function can be more efficient. I just don't have time for that. If there's no way to automate it, then I don't need that feature.

Also, just want to say that your logo looks an awful lot like Apple's SiriShortcuts app logo. Might be worth changing it up.

Check your assumptions. What if someone is not working as a programmer, not working in academia and not sharing programs with others, except in HN comments/submissions.

There was a story that appeared on HN many years ago and I wish I could find it again. It described a gentleman in Japan who did not work in the computer industry but did some sort of (let's call it) "optimisation work" on his own as a hobby. The story told that the work was being used by companies within the computer industry, I think it was hardware manufacturers. If I recall correctly he did not have any formalised education in computer science or mathematics. I am probably getting some details wrong; need to find this story again.
"Pitts, who is accused of shooting another man to death in 2019, will be released while prosecutors work with the police department to determine whether any data related to his case has been lost, the outlet reports."

I'm afraid that's going to be the case for so many other cases.
This brings to mind the old quip about engineering and designing a bridge that stays up - barely.

There's a fine line between improving survival and finding the absolute bare minimum to prevent loss. Situations change, and red-lining nature is always, always going to end in unpleasant surprised.

I think what you're worried about is the death of ownership and how people are increasingly starting to either sell their information or rent the things they need.

Being able to buy things for cheaper from elsewhere is just specialization and it's one of the first things that brought humans from the store age to more modern civilization.

I used to take olanzapine religiously at 25 mg for Schizophrenia. I did exactly what the doctors asked because I wanted to be a good person and not the stereotypical person who doesn’t take their drugs.

In my opinion drugs and therapy are useless. If they were actually rational pills everyone would be taking them recreationally. Antipsychotics are simply sedatives in my opinion.

The idea of talking to a patient about their delusions is stupid to a degree I cannot comprehend. Therapists should instead say “You are full of nonsense, listen to Classical and read 2 Chapters of War and Peace for next time”. The goal of this beneficial technique is the same as brainwashing - to replace part of the brain, except in this case with a concrete and rational reality.

If I could have a do-over, I would have gotten a dog instead of taking those pills.

There is only one reality, as Murakami once wrote.
I feel you; I too went through the same sort of thing -- PhD in CS from Cambridge, girlfriend in London who thought the center of the universe was London and parents back home screaming at me to 'get a house and settle down in London'. I was slogging it, being paid incredibly well only to end up at work before the sun came up, back home when the sun had gone down, forever damp, wet, cold, windy even when it was sunny outside.

A lot of your post centers around your living situation and being unable to buy a house in London even though you're well paid. You don't like London and hate it -- don't force yourself to live in it. I did that, and I got really really sick. The stress basically broke me.

Like you I was scared -- scared that I'm unemployable and tied into my job, scared that I have no skillset, scared that I'm not good enough. I ended up being pushed, and that was not great. In the end I realized all the things I thought would mean the end of my life didn't mean anything at all:

- Not living in London didn't matter
- Not owning a house in London didn't matter
- Not making my parents didn't matter
- Not being with my ex-girlfriend didn't matter.

What did matter was being happy and doing things that made me happy. I spent a year sitting at home learning about digital design because it seemed interesting. Today, I'm in a research commercial research position, doing well and happier than I've ever been.

The (long winded) point I'm making is -- sometimes deep down (or not so deep down) we KNOW something isn't for us but we plug away anyway. Once you know, you know. Start making steps to change, do not continue to fight it. If you have to fight every day it's not for you.

Don't be like me and break into two. Just start taking steps to fix it. Don't be afraid if the steps mean some uncertainty.

Having said that, here are some practical ideas:
- Have you thought about a research position? Take a look at the Alan Turing institute, they usually have interesting positions available.
- Take a look at DAMTP/Stats @ Cambridge. They are really getting into ML/Stats for machine learning. Imperial too is ramping up their research teams in that area.
- Have you thought about applying to one of the bigger, older insurance companies? Everything I'm hearing leads me to believe they want to ramp up the ML/technical side of the underwriting and claims process but don't have the technology skills to pursue it.

If any of these seem interesting, ping me. I can make intros.
Is that the 'stuff landing on your house' scenario or are you thinking of a different incident?
The Pandemic has really changed how credit cards are handled here. Pre-Pandemic, Tap and Pay was fairly rare, but now, it is everywhere (Nearly 90% by my informal count). The odd thing I noticed is that the smaller the market, the more likely the store/shop uses Tap and Pay.
American's are also using their phone more to pay.
Deciding when to stop overthinking is also a rational process. Some choices truly don't matter, or not matter enough to spend time and energy on them.

If consumer ethics is important to you then it obviously warrants some deliberation, weighted by an upper bound of your potential impact. But identifying areas of meaningless choice and simply choosing randomly (and not even caring if the choice is sufficiently random) frees up a lot of mental energy.
Subaru's eyesight absolutely will stop you when you think you're about to hit something, regardless of whether or not that something was moving previously.

That's interesting. I find myself the opposite. The games that are improved graphically year on year are normally quite boring or scripted. Fifa and COD series for example.

I can appreciate great graphics like Red Dead 2 but if it could be 10% more fun but look 10% worse I would always pick the more fun option.
Lilypond is quite good for transcribing music. It's compact and quick to write, so you can get the job done quickly, and the layout engine is actually good out of the box.

However, I once tried a (small) composition project in Lilypond, and it really slowed to a crawl when I started to make major changes to what I'd already written. The ability to "refactor" is just so much easier in a visual editor like Musescore or Sibelius.

Perhaps for more experienced composers, with less of a need for complete redos, tools like these are better at "getting out of your way".

I found your comment amusing!
It's kind of amazing to me that I never really encountered or read about the i740. I got really into PC gaming in 1997, we got internet that same year so I read a ton and was hyper aware of the various hardware that was released, regardless of whether I could actually own any of it (spoiler, as a ~11 year old, no I could not). How did this sneak by me?
The many that collaborated with the US forces in any way fear retaliations. And if history provide insight, heads might roll. Look at what happened with French woman that slept with germans after WW2. Life is harsh and injust by default.
I saw this project awhile ago and think its really interesting. I hope people explore this more in the future.
Coding is hard though. I remember helping a smart friend of mine with his homework in college for an intro CS course and even basic fizz-buzz type stuff was very hard for him. This is a guy who has had a highly successful career post-college and did well in his (non-technical) major. I'm skeptical that more than a small fraction of the population will ever learn to code at more than a superficial level.
