Priest and monk are operate under two massively different rule sets. The "you don't get to pick up friends you have fun with in the evening" is something I got from reading rules of various monasteries (both male and female).

First, having friend, as in favorite person you spend more time with and prioritize, was literally against the rules. You are not supposed to do that. Second, evening was not free recreation time. You eat dinner, you pray, you have chores, you study etc.
As a Python backend services dev I fear a lot of the Python popularity you see is data analyst and data science/data pipelines/ML roles so if thats not your bag then don’t go all in on Python.

and of course endless tons of both cool and uncool companies are still committed to Java.

Desalinization is an extremely energy intensive process for the amount of water we use.

The problem is that calendar software and industry-wide habit pushes meetings to last a multiple of 30 minutes. And you can't trust that everyone will be connected or in the room before 10-15 minutes after the planned start. So 30 minutes transform into 15-20 minutes, and is too small for anything but a short chat that could have been an email.

> WHY are we forced to use 30-50% of our lives to be able to ”enjoy” the rest?

Never in the history of the world have people had to work fewer hours per week. Something's telling me that we are not any happier than previous generations. We are definitely going to keep reducing the work hours further, and perhaps we will in fact reach the point of no work at all - but will we be happier than today? Just look at all the people who retire and decline quickly.

There's something about work that's natural to the concept of human race, and I, for one, would continue to work even if I didn't have to. But - and that's a big but - I enjoy my work. It allows me to use my brain and express myself in ways that I never would be able to without the support of my team and my company. It multiplies my ability to make an impact on others and to see a meaning in waking up every morning.

This is not going to be a popular opinion, but everyone here has the ability to find themselves in a position of fulfilling work. In my case, it took 20 years of hard work, of which the first year was awful and it gradually got better, leading to where I am today. I don't think I possess any special qualities, and I certainly didn't come from money or any type of privilege (I wasn't even born in the US). But I was willing to work my ass off, and it all paid off.

Assuming you come from a similar background as mine, you cannot escape work. Think of it as a prison sentence of anywhere from 1-20 years. You're in jail now, and you can't get out of it - what do you do? Sit in a corner and feel sorry for yourself, or try to have meaningful connections with your jail mates, exercise your body, read books, learn something new every day. I know which way I would go.

Inequality is at the very core of how the universe operates. We all have different genes, and some of us are stronger, taller, cuter, and/or healthier than others. Some of us are dealt good cards and some are dealt bad ones. Heck, some of us are born on Earth, and there might be other species born on another planet, dealing with a very different climate other circumstances - it's highly unlikely that there's another carbon copy of our planet.

Life is different for everyone, and if you spend your life looking at someone who has to work less, you're going to miss the essence of this universe. From what you wrote, your life will have a heavy dose of work associated with it, and that makes it similar to mine. It's ok, there's a lot of pride, joy and fun to be had. It all starts with realizing that it's about living your best life and not someone else's.

One key difference is that humans need about as long as they were under water, at rest, to recover oxygen in their blood and normalize co2 levels. We can’t swim up, exhale, breathe, and swim back down. That’s a recipe for a guaranteed black out.

We also can’t swim very strongly while holding our breath. Everything is slow, controlled, deliberate, and conservative in all ways possible.

I have just started to learn differential privacy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_privacy), and am wondering if the following might be feasible in principle: on the browser level, instead of blocking the trackers, add a certain level of noise to the submitted data. This might form a truce between the end users and the trackers. Through statistics, the trackers might still be able to learn something about the end user group as a population; at the same time, each individual user's privacy isn't breached much more than they are completely offline. Admittedly this might be ridiculous and is just me under Dunning–Kruger effect as a beginner in this field.

In the US the treatments are absolutely limited by bed availability. And towing around a statistic like "less people are being treated" is the entire point the not shill world is trying to make. Do you know why less people are being treated? Because the beds are full of people with COVID and hospitalized COVID patients take longer to treat than most other hospital stays. So the beds are being filled and not emptied at regular rates leading to less people being treated. Maybe it's extremely different in the UK but here in the US people with your attitude are a huge problem.

Ed Zitron just wrote about this, and I agree with him:

The whole conversation around “revenge bedtime procrastination” is a frustrating example - it is the idea that we are staying up late doing things we want to do instead of going to bed, which is otherwise known as “being a person.” I’ve seen several different articles about it, going into depths about “the why” of people staying awake doing stuff before bed. The answer is probably that they’re intellectually stimulated by the thing they’re doing and like doing it and are more interested in the thing than going to sleep. Big deal! But it’s now yet another codified entity for people to chew over and ask themselves about - am I “revenge bedtime procrastinating?” A take that seems profound and thoughtful, but is laser-focused on being shared by people saying “hey, I also do stuff instead of going to bed!” Entire articles now exist of people talking about why they stay awake instead of sleeping, as if that’s new, or thoughtful. And now people have a new term for something that didn’t need a term, and can bring intellectualism to “I stayed up until 1am playing Slay The Spire.”

Not far off [1]. Serial counterfeiting, fraudulent tax losses, shipping "a large block of wood" in a box supposed to contain memory chips.

Funny idea! Are you using any 3rd party APIs under the hood?
> I've seen "story points" be totally useless over time on teams where "number of tickets delivered per week" was remarkably stable. But people don't like using that for some reason.

I don't see how this can be the case. If each ticket is estimated to be about the same size, and it sounds as though they should be, then if you're doing say 5 tickets a week, 10 a sprint, and they're all about the same size then each ticket you could say is 5 points, and you're doing 50 points a sprint.

That's probably pointless (hah) if they are all the same size; ticket sizing is more for if you have tasks of different sizes and you're trying to roughly combine them into something you can predictably deliver.

But if you're at a stage when your delivery is already this predictable, you may not need to use story points particularly. If it's mandated for some silly reason then you could use the above method to bat it away quickly!
This is nice in terms of hiding your actual address. However, it makes migrating away harder because now instead of setting a simple rule to strip the + for forwarding, you need to individually map each address.
I feel a bit of tension. I'm not a big fan of people using water to grow grass in the desert, but I'm also not a big fan of making tens or hundreds of thousands of people sacrifice so that one large corporation can profit.

Yeah, I know that chip manufacturing helps everyone by improving our economic independence, and that's not a small thing, but we're already writing Intel a big check and they obviously benefit from the profits of the chips they will manufacture (assuming they manage it correctly and it doesn't just get left behind for cheaper foreign manufacturing the moment the market economics change).

Maybe chip manufacture really benefits from being somewhere arid, and that's probably just pretty incompatible with water conservation?
I live in Phoenix and have heard some of the local discourse about this.

Fabs need a lot of water, like a swimming pool. Once you fill it up, then you need comparatively less to stay operational.

Intel has invested in both recycling water as well as partnering with organizations on water conservation and ecology projects.

Arizona does draw water from the Colorado River, but among the four states, Arizona is at the bottom of the water rights. We get what is left over after Colorado, California, and Utah get their legal share.

The biggest user of water here in Arizona are the commercial farmers. (The Hopi people practice dryland agriculture and so don’t irrigate at all; most everyone else irrigates using inefficient and destructive land management practices). Aquifers here have been draining, and it has been a big issue. Farmers are already getting restricted on water use this year (despite an unusually wet monsoon season), and water restrictions has not hit residential users yet. It is on the radar for policymakers though.

Both TSMC and Intel are attracted to Arizona because it is seismically stable. They each had to invest an enormous amount in the more seismically active Taiwan and California, and it gets more sensitive the smaller the chips get.

If we want to conserve more water, the most effective way is to change commercial farming practices. Fabs have already invested a lot to reducing ongoing water use.

For an example of what I mean by better land management practices in regards to water: https://youtu.be/-8nqnOcoLqE

Embarrassingly, I have managed to shock myself several times during my life on 240V mains. Once quite recently while working on a light fitting at a friend's flat and not realising that someone had flipped the circuit back on at the circuit breaker!

That shock was certainly quite unpleasant, but despite touching my sweaty skin against live wires, it seems to have been far from fatal.

Surely the dangerous situations are live-to-earth shocks, which could potentially run across your whole body (rather than just a hand or finger, as in my case). But that's why we have RCD/GFCI protection, right? Those will trip with tiny fault currents, certainly much less than 300 mA.

Secondly, aren't "Type B" RCDs required on solar inverters? Those will detect and trip on DC fault currents as low as 30 mA, not 300!

To host static websites, you use Cloudflare Pages.
FWIW this can also be done with ipsets. [1] ipset hash tables are quite useful if you are blocking a large number of hosts. The CPU load is much lower than having individual rules for each host blocked. You can set any time limit on a ipset or have no time limit. You can also dynamically insert ip's into ipsets using iptables rules.

Those are cultural habits that can be broken. Start meetings on time, don't let people straggle in. Setting half hour meetings is easy.

For my part I'd love it if more people would accept 20 minutes as a reasonable meeting duration, but it definitely requires companywide norms to get people to fragment their calendars that way.
I wonder if it's going to spread to the rest or the world instead.

I want to ask others if any of this hits home for them?

I don't have an autism diagnosis, but many of the things in the article I do have a "formal" diagnosis for:

"...the example of scratchy tags on the back of shirts, which might repeatedly draw the attention of a person with autism, yet be below the threshold where they draw the attention of most neurotypical people."

In my teens I was diagnosed with "Tactile Defensive Disorder" for explaining to a psychiatrist why I always ripped the tags out of the back of my shirts and don't like putting lotion or other stuff on my skin.

Then the amalgam of anxiety disorders -- Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder.

Really what it is, is that a lot of things are just sensorily overwhelming. Loud music, crowds of people (sea of moving colors), it's too much for me (unless properly inebriated). I don't know how it doesn't drive over people crazy, it's like your senses are being assaulted.

Have a hard time watching regular TV/movies, I prefer animated things because there is too much detail and movement on the screen at once otherwise and I have a hard time absorbing both the dialogue and what my eyes are seeing.

I typically don't like to nitpick articles like this, but the author is specifically requesting it, so here goes.

1. From tech lead to "Senior Manager" is quite the jump. And to have multiple teams reporting to him as well?

2. I'm willing to be the senior director staff meeting is worthless 90% of the time.

3. 30 minutes for a standup is a long time unless there are... 35-40 people on each team.

4. The 15 minute ads meeting definitely could have been an email.

5. NPS surveys are a waste of time by themselves. Do you really need 2 hours to review them?

6. The App/platform boundary meeting could/should have probably been a document. Nobody will remember any specifics from the discussion within 48 hours.

7. Tuesday morning's standup presumably has more (~2x) the people but has the same time window, proof positive you're just wasting time the other standups.

8. Team 2 has two standups on Tuesday?

9. You have a scrum master.

10. Monthly status updates can/should be documents.

11. I would love to know what the "sync up" with an SEO consultant entails. That sounds terrible.

12. Virtual happy hour at 3pm?

13. 6.5 hours worth of "production post mortems" in a week. If you're spending 15% of your week discussing production problems, you have structural issues that need to be emergency-level for your team. Imagine having to take ten minutes out of every hour, every day, all week, for production problems.

Lots of stuff here that should be persistent documents/Wikis, emails, etc. rather than 30-90 minute meetings. But I don't think that's going to surprise anyone reading this. It seems like one or two meetings each day are actually needed, best case, not including the 1-on-1s (which I think are super important).
You're right my browser is too slow! Webpages only load nearly instantly, I'm sure bringing back all the ads will make everything even better!
The idea that type 2 diabetes is related to obesity has been around for a long time, and probably has merit.

AdNauseam is an interesting attempt in this space - a browser plugin to automatically "click every ad to fight surveillance" (their words). By clicking everything, clicks become less valuable, at least in theory, but it has not really caught on.

> I feel the fix will be more along the lines of improving individual psychology and mental wellbeing, rather than entering the arms race of adversarial technology to block packet traffic (or whatever).

I agree with this. Ad blocking, ad clicking, packet blocking, is all thinking too small, always trying to catchup. It will always be behind and while useful for a niche subset of users, these kinds of technologies are more bandaids than a real solution to trigger fundamental changes to the advertising tracking industry.

What is a real, impactful solution? I don't know, but an area I have not seen explored much, considering by analogy:

Internet : Web ::
Big Tech : ???

That is, the web layered on top of the Internet, as a disruptively transforming application, extracting and providing value.

Can another technology be created to build on the foundations provided by Big Tech, delivering value they provide, while avoiding their tracking/advertising downsides? I have little idea what this would look like in practice (how do you disrupt a billion dollar industry?), but if someone can crack this nut, it may change the world. Startup idea elevator pitch: disrupt Big Tech.
I think people like this see it as a 'win' – as if they, John Smith, have beaten the dastardly BigCorp. Whereas, in fact, the most that happens is a Junior Marketing Executive at BigCorp says "Right, that guy falls within the 0.5% of techy customers who make things difficult for us. Ah well, it's only been 80,000 of them, well within our margin for this month."

The claim is that the service handles distribution across reliability, so I think the more interesting question is the odds of that _mechanism_ failing when your site would otherwise be up[1].

Similarly, 3-2-1 is a backup strategy and the pricing appears to already include multiple copies using the same mechanism so the correct calculation would be the cost of R2 plus whatever _different_ mechanism you choose for disaster recovery purposes such as on-premise storage or a completely different provider.

1. For example, if you use Cloudflare as your CDN / DNS provider and they have a catastrophic failure, the fact that your storage is inaccessible is just another facet of the same issue.

I can't speak for the "woke" in general, but regarding medical conditions and their prevalence depending on racial origin: there's worlds of difference between defining what credit risk somebody is based on their skin color and informing people that skin color may be a correlative indicator that the resources should be invested to test their genetics for known maladies. The first is a crime in the United States, and the second is just good medicine.
