Dude….

As a person interested in husbanding my time, I value these services greatly.

Where I live now you can pickup the app and your groceries are here in 15 minutes.

Super awesome, especially for this spur of the moment things you need.

I for one, am not gonna wait for a cab and spend an hour in the grocery store then commute back home again.

My time is more valuable than that.

Just tip your delivery person well!!!
Probably better to wait until you know it's not defective before doing that.
If you believe this

then "what the public thinks" doesn't matter a lot

Compared to economic elites, average voters have a low
to nonexistent influence on public policies. “Not only
do ordinary citizens not have uniquely substantial
power over policy decisions, they have little or no
independent influence on policy at all,” the authors
conclude.

If that's the case, then partisan gridlock serves the goal of keeping the public from being influential while leaving it engaged with the current system and not putting energy into change.
The base is the removal of about:config. Whatever got written up into the release notes, it was received by many users as stated above.

Also note that an ulterior motive doesn't need to exist for the path towards centralized, user-hostile control to happen. It starts with "the developer knows better what the user wants than the user themselves" sort of attitudes.

Does anyone know if there are any real serious studies about the effectiveness of gifted programs in children to actually identify gifted kids and provide them with appropriate tools that justify giving them to gifted children only and not to disseminate to the entire population of children? Despite this discussion having >70 comments in it a lot of it seems to be intuition, anecdotes and gut feel without actual data behind them.

I think "jealous" is not a useful lens here. People reject innovation because genuinely changing the way the way they have to do things is painful even if the attempt fails, and will probably lead to some people losing their jobs if it succeeds.

>are incapable of being under-collateralized.

Knowing pretty much zero about DAI (and honestly, not too interested to spend any time to learn), this still sounds incredible. Does that incapability hold even if prices of whatever underlying assets are not continuous? Like, at one point of time the asset is trading at 100 dollars, and at the very next moment it trades at 1, with no possibility for anyone to trade at 50 at any point in between?

I very much assume not. If you think that is laughably stupid to assume that prices would not be continuous, well, you are in good company, even some Economics Nobelists have fallen on that trap. And lost billions. In that case you may want to spend some time researching what comes up when you search for LTCM.
They will end up trying to have their cake and eat it, taking money from both places. And after news like this one, many users would not want to support them, understandably.

They lost a big chunk of valuable (but not financially) user trust. It's really tricky to regain it, they would have to take a leap of faith, do "the right thing", and hope users will believe.

Or maybe we need to fork it and crowdfund (crowdhire?) firefox developers. And hope they will accept the risk of financial difficulties down the line. And there will be a long term trust/authority problem to solve - who makes decisions? But I would trust their devs personally, I think
Yes! This is the exact reason I drive an old car (2008 Prius with 180k miles!). I could buy a new vehicle like a Black Model 3, but then I'd have to go through the hassle of buying and insuring a new car, and then I'd be nervous about scraping it on a sidewalk or getting bumped by a car door. Or what if the fancy new vehicle has software or hardware problems and I have to send it back to the shop for months?
As a counterpoint to your edit, personally work exhausts me to a level where weekends are mostly spent recuperating/doing chores and not being productive. It’s a week or two into the breaks I’ve taken from work where I start being productive in ways I rarely manage during my working periods.

Contrary to public sentiments (and maybe to other countries legal ethos), a German court has the function to first and foremost establish the truth - punishment is secondary to this.

I actually did this this afternoon - realised I was running low on groceries and needed some cleaning supplies - too heavy for me to carry all at once.

So, ordered around 5pm, and I could've had it by about 8-10pm, or in a wide range of time-slots tomorrow. I picked tomorrow afternoon.

The law enforcement is already equipped well enough to get you if you lead a normal life (addresses, phone etc.). The technology won't change that. It can be used for things they are not as good at though like finding people lost in the woods or chasing criminals. I mean, if they deem you a "a thought criminal" they can just knock on your door and take you to jail. They don't need a swarm of drones to achieve it.
Submarines don't use active sonar as a matter of course. That is, it's not something you turn off when you want to be sneaky, it's something you only ever use in very limited and specific situations.
So there are 2 issues with this.

The first is that the contractor isn't evading any tax, maybe the client are, but then you should go after the client right? Not just hit the contractor even harder...

The second is whether you should include NI in you calculations. My default might be yes, but given contractors (and clients) get none of the benefits of paying NI (no state pension, no sick pay, no covid payments!), is that actually fair?

I personally think the issue here is that we've decided to tax payments from capital (dividends etc) at a much lower rate than those from labour.

But it's actually not trivial to decide whether a payment is from labour or capital. So now we're trying to "equalise" them to make it fair between employees and contractors. But unless we're prepared to equalise all other treatment of contractors (make us permanent, give us maternity leave, covid payments etc) we're not actually making anything fair.

I don't actually want to be an employee. But if we're making that illegal, that's that, but then I'm owed 101 benefits and ir35 is strangely silent on those...

Sure, but that's a very thin reed on which to hang mandates and vaccine passports. Just yesterday the POTUS was saying that being vaccinated means "you are protected and can't spread" COVID as part of his case for them: https://twitter.com/Breaking911/status/1446211115738931209
Some food for thought: As much as correlation != causation(in regards to the spike in traffic), I've witnessed so many people taking any Facebook post as the ultimate source of truth. Which is insanely problematic in countries like mine, where "Facebook = real news" by all definitions. And as a consequence this has been the root cause of insane amounts of horror stories. For instance one of the lowest covid vaccination rates in the world(despite being among the first countries that made vaccination available to the general public beyond medical staff and risk groups). About a week ago a political leader stated on TV that she's been aware of a scandal involving a presidential candidate, who was contacted by his friend and immediately called the studio to confront those statements. When the presenter asked her where she got that information her response was: "I read it on the internet". I feel like Carlin's famous "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups" sentence is just that: Facebook became the official platform and facilitated the creation of large communities of the loonies that used to be standing on a cardboard box with a tin-foil hat at the main square shouting about reptilians and all that. The problem is that people are far less likely to listen to someone who hasn't taken a shower in weeks and smells of cigarettes and alcohol than a webcam-selfie in a soviet-green room next to a facebook post. Some weeks ago I saw an article about a website filled with fake news and out of curiosity I decided to investigate it. Turns out it's run by a guy in his early 20's, his mom and his mom's boyfriend or something. And it wasn't just that website: it turned out to be an absolute empire of hundreds websites like the one with thousands of articles and their main source of traffic was Facebook. And it's kind of evident when you see thousands of engagements on their posts in facebook while a news site which I can guarantee that is not biased or controlled by any political party or organization in any way(I am close to much of their staff) gets a couple of dozen likes at best. Facebook might not be the worst idea in human history but it somehow became the worst thing I've seen in my life. Tl;dr(enable sarcastic tone + slow clap): great job you're doing there to prevent misinformation Mr. Zuckerberg.

Any tips on finding "something part time & much more fulfilling"? Did you just wait for something to find you, did you actively search out opportunities..?
Not everyone is wired the same way. Yes it is nice to go and explore the outdoors (no one can disagree with that usually). But you cannot look down on someone because they choose to do otherwise. The point is that people should do what THEY want to do if they have the freedom to choose.
A single counterexample does invalidate a theory that poor Black American (not other black immigrants') performance is caused by poverty and/or racism.
Among humans it's likely evenly distributed, but... the blame for unevenness should fall more on the parents who rear their kids to fail rather than on the system who fails to find those rough diamonds. The parents should suffer most of the culpability. They are the ones steering their kids to poor outcomes via parenting styles.
It applies to every job not just engineering. I thought this was considered obvious.
Earning > $300k when married filling jointly is very much not a middle class income & lifestyle. I certainly won’t disagree that figuring out money and retirement at that income level is hard, but 95% of America has it harder.

So I’ll say that then saying this impacts the middle class is disingenuous at best. On top of that, private placements usually require bare minimum investments of $50k and realistically $100k min investment is not uncommon. If you have that sort of cash to put into higher risk deals, middle class you are not.
Sounds like ADHD hyperfocus.
> bored out of their mind and wasting their time.

Wasting their time wouldn't even be much of a problem. Many become really destructive and it can result in them dropping out. A bored kid will not have iron discipline, maybe especially not the smart ones.
Last Mile Costs are still the choke point for this. And those are only slightly relaxed in high density urban locations which the USA really has very few. Anywhere else, Last Mile Costs quickly negate advantages if prices matter at all. For most people they do.
I don't know if it's intentional, but I noticed a "fashion" on Quora that consists in attracting readers (and good old trolling) by making completely bogus claims in the form of questions.

So you'll see questions like "Why is the government hiding the fact that the Earth is both flat and hollow and that 27% of its crust is made of Swiss cheese ?"

The "response" sections of such questions have almost wasted enough of human time to qualify as a crime.
I am currently working as researcher and software dev exactly in this field, this is my personal opinion:

Nope. At least not at the current market conditions.

Almost ALL the clients and institutions with which I have collaborated like lot of things about web3 and blockchains, but in the process of finalizing the requirements they end up disliking a lot more of them.

Like almost everyone wants a way to revert transactions easily and very fast by a "controller" entity managed by themselves. They want advanced fraud prevention. They want a way to recover private keys (wallets) for their clients or to manage those directly themselves. They want a way to manage whatever there is in those wallet for various security purposes. They often want to collect a lot of personal information which require a strong synchronization between what there is in the bc and a very large db. They want transaction costs to be almost nil with nonsensical transaction volumes. Etc etc

All these things are hard to do using blockchains, but possible in some way or another. The problem is that the result is often a bastardization of what a blockchain is, with lot of extra slow, sync and cost factors. So you end up with just another centralized and very inefficient solution that most of the time would be far better just removing the whole blockchain concept from the project.

In the last three years probably I can count just ONE project which was truly a good match for a bc solution (and was not strangely requested by a local association of no-profits for a local-economy solution), another dozen which were hard bastardization, and a lot of others which we just refused to implement because they were absurd proposals, even if the clients put a lot of money on the table.

My contacts in the same field feel all the same.
I started a "lifestyle" company 32-ish years ago (4 guys all working from home all these years), and have pretty much had complete control of my time and schedule. (Other than periods of intense work bursts that couldn't be avoided, either to get going initially or to finish some critical project.)

It's enabled me to help homeschool our 8 kids over the years (now all flown; youngest just started college) and travel quite a bit with the kids to various music and dance camps around the world, etc. Plus timber framing with sons, wood-fired pizza making, etc, etc.

Don't know if I'll ever formally retire, but could see doing a lot more travel visiting kids and grandkids around the country, and doing more woodworking/timber framing.
And several of those also provide definitions that include explicit policy of doing so, further reinforcing the point that the connotation exists.

> the weekends are a pretty good picture of how we'd behave at retirement.

I think this depends on how one’s current job is affecting them.

If you’re near burnout or just work in a very stressful environment, the weekends are more about recovery from the week and might not be a good predictor of future choices when not stressed/burnt out.

Basing this comment mostly on personal experience since I’ve had both productive weekends and lazy/lost weekends and it generally depends on how the current job is going.
just throwing a related idea in here in the hopes someone finds it interesting enough to develop.

Having a very simple cli app generator that allows one to have independent terminal applications that run just like normal app. Independent in the sense that you can open them as any other app, run on their own window, and and you can reach them through the app switcher.
You are not really supposed to run QEMU directly if you are looking for that kind of experience, that's why libvirt exists. Other than that, QEMU should really be a generic emulator rather than being infested with platform-specific stuff, everything else should be independently maintained and pluggable. (Autodetection is also extremely fragile, and takes away from keeping a VM a VM)

Ask HN: Smoothness and performance of Qt based systems vs. native apps and OS
There are many apps on Mac and Windows based on Qt, as well as ones built using the native SDKs exposed by respective platforms, like Cocoa and Dot Net. Are the ones built on Qt as smooth and performant as the native ones? Or will there be clear performance differences? There are questions like this on StackExchange, but they are more than a decade old, I am interested in knowing the current status!

On that note, how will an OS built around Qt perform compared to say iOS or Android, like Ubuntu Touch (assuming similar levels of underlying hardware)? Will Android and iOS and the apps on top of them will be naturally smoother, scrolls and app transitions being smoother than in Ubuntu Touch? Or is it that the Qt coding can be suitably tweaked in Ubuntu Touch to match iOS and Android performances?
Bit of an aside, but writing an email is its own art. Not many developers know how to write an email that a busy, non-technical VP will read, understand and act on in the way they intended. (Then again, neither do many managers.)

I remember as a kid my parents brought me a nice rubber ducky. I was very upset when they told me it was marzipan and I was supposed to eat it, after which it would no longer exist. It may have also been a marshmallow peep.
It's probably not so helpful to look at absolute numbers of cases rather than risk reduction. If men under 30 already have a very low risk from Covid and there is an alternate vaccine available, then this policy makes a lot of sense. This is the sort of caution we used to expect from our drug regulators.
It was a little ad hominemey, for color. I'll own that criticism.
Losing is normal. Learning the moves is easy, learning to play not so much. Think of it as any non trivial card game.

Two pieces of advice:
1. Play longer times. This happened to me when I started with 5+3. Play 15+10.
2. STUDY YOUR LOSSES. sorry for yelling. Try to understand what did your opponent that you didn't see, try to understand if it was a tactic you missed or a strategy general loss.
(in parallel with those) study endgame (mate with queen, K+R v. K, etc) and the tactics by name. X-ray, what's a fork, what's a skewer, etc. By name only, avoid puzzles. Think of them as the for and whiles of chess.
