>If you can find an employer who can value that without judging why you might choose to do it.

I've seen job boards posted here for employers to exclusively filter for conservative and right-wing employees. Half the US would not only hire such a person, they'd probably give them a raise for the cause.

I used Vemto for a new app recently and it was a pleasure.

There are other schema designer tools that will output your models as Eloquent code, but none of them handle the inevitable "we added a new model and want to associate it with an existing model". Vemto does support that, and it is setup to work alongside your codebase when the time comes to add new stuff.

You can use as little or as much of the code and UI generator stuff as you'd like.
Are you sure they wouldn't considering it would be 15%-20% cheaper?
Also the M1 runs near silent or in case of the Air actually silent. I would pay an extra 1000 just for that alone. Turned out the Air was barely more than that in total. Which other laptop does that?
I think you're reading into the thoughts of others elsewhere too much. I don't think living a "simple life" or whatever is objected by anyone. I don't think "having ideas" is also some big stakes quality that totally upends someone's lifestyle. A lot of the most creative, interesting, and idea-ful people in history lived simple, modest lives. Many writers, painters, musicians, mathematicians, scientists, philosophers, etc. were well known for "schedules" that consisted of waking up late, having a nice meal, going for a walk, doing some creative stuff for a few hours, having a nice dinner, etc etc. A "simple" lifestyle is completely compatible with originality, productivity, creativity, and personal growth. Denying that would be a crime against yourself.

Yes, I think in this forum, sometimes there are hyperbolic takes on working hard, grinding, etc., but I think that's an orthogonal concern about work, startups, and the like.

These negative connotations that you mention come from obvious places. "I'm smart, life is easy, and I'd like to keep it that way." How is this not complacency? It's the epitome of self-satisfaction and a desire to remain static. What on earth grows, evolves, or improves without difficulty, self-imposed or otherwise? This angle works whether it be biological, social, intellectual, artistic, or technical. The very nature of improvement necessarily involves failure, and I contend a desire for comfort—especially that which is stood up from some natural intelligence—is equally a desire to not fail.

Having ideas is one manifestation of an avenue for failure. Most ideas are bad and don't work. Again, "ideas" here transcend business proposals, as we might assume here on HN. For instance, I'm an amateur classical musician, and sometimes when I'm playing a piece, I will try different things not marked in the score. Maybe they'll be good, maybe not. But I'd rather have ideas to try as a means to improve my musicianship (and perhaps even my own musical intelligence!) over simply being smart by reciting a score as written with a bone-dry, scholarly performance. Of course, this means my life is now made a hair more difficult, because the effort I put into performing something may be for nought if my idea turns out to be botched. But that's par for the course when you're doing something new that nobody else has done before. Are scholarly performances a bad thing? Not intrinsically, but I'd explicitly attach negative connotation to your musicianship if that's all you can do.

If I'm honest, I really want to go a step further and link creativity, ideas, etc. to some philosophical notion of being human, but it's certainly an argument beyond my caliber to make.
From time to time I've been good enough to think I'm a master of a language. But that skill fades so fast. For some reason the mountains of trivia just sort of fade away without pretty regular use.

Once upon a time, I could tell you all the semantics of `static` in C, but now I couldn't even give an accurate count of all the ways it's overloaded. There's like the top level declaration that sets aside memory, there's the declaration in a function that has slightly different initialization rules and is good for coroutines. And like, 4? more meanings in different locations. I only hit that level because of a compilers class.

I feel like I could ramp back up, but the subtle nuances just sort of flit away like butterflies.

More than 2 seems really challenging. Even simple stuff there's not much to scheme, but try getting a chez runtime running on a raspberry pi, and really understand the impact of the flags you build with and run with. Not easy (for me) to stay really sharp with that.

I mean, sure, I can bang out some code. I can pattern match well enough that code I contribute blends in with the style of a project. But mastery? That's a big lift.
Could a person who grows up in complete social isolation learn (or invent) a language? If not, could such a person name things or have a way to think about maps and symbols (representations of things) in a way that could lead to consciousness?

"Giving a free share to every person is exactly how a new global currency should be launched, no?"

No, that's not how currency works at all.

A currency is just a means of exchange, it itself is not wealth.

A 'global currency' for example, might be something backed by assets. So anyone with assets can trade those in for some currency. (Which would be hard because it's hard to value those assets, but you see the point.) You'd need a regulator to try to control how much currency exists at any given time, if you're trying to keep it stable with respect to other currencies. (Or not if you don't want to that.)

In order for the Orb scheme to have any use use, you'd have to start everyone off with quite a bit of 'new currency', but because it's issued arbitrarily, it's unlikely that anyone would value it. For example, why would the surgeon accept a currency at face value when the same amount of currency was given to his 17 year old kid who played video games all year?

Imagine if we did this with regular, paper bills.

Imagine if you printed high quality physical currency, called 'World Bucks' and gave everyone on planet earth 100 000 each of 'World Bucks'. Would that catch on as a currency? It might in some niches for some things, but pragmatically no, it would not. It would be treated about as valuable as Monopoly money.

You can't print value out of thin air.

Crypto has a way of distracting people from the reality of what's going on, especially those without any financial background might tend to believe that if you just printed a piece of paper and called it money, that you could finance an economy that way.

If SV want to help poor people, then they can probably help the most by helping to root out corruption, by investing, setting up real industry etc..
pja made the claim that in some instances, collision/comprehensive + liability can be cheaper than just liability alone.

I expressed surprise that collision/comprehensive + liability can be cheaper than just liability alone, since, on the face of it, the insurance company seems exposed to more losses due to possibly having to pay the insured for their car damages.

In my comment, I wrote liability referring to the insurer’s liability for paying to fix/replace the insurer’s car, not liability as in auto liability insurance where the insurance company pays others for damage you cause to them.
Very true. I've got my own thoughts about what other religions might say, but I don't want to seem overbearing. Thanks for your kind response! :)

I find creating a Twitter thread has a lower barrier of entry in comparison to writing a blog post. Sometimes I have contents which I'd like to get out, but then I can't motivate myself to write a full post (where I'd also want to explore the topic in more depth to achieve a certain level of quality). Doing a quick thread is a nice way out then.

For instance, in this case [1] I felt it's not worth spending the energy and time on a post, but it was still an interesting bit to share. Plus, tweet threads allow for their own kind of fun experiments like this one [2], which you couldn't reproduce with a blog post. I.e. both have their place in my opinion.

The alienation aspect of work in software is quite real, especially in companies that put many layers between developers and the end-users. Although Marx was prescient in this regard, the remedies he proposed are far from ideal...

The author's idea of completely abandoning software development seems a bit extreme. Software Development encompasses a huge variety of niches and disciplines, and ten years doing the same kind of work can get wearying. The remedy is to change it up and experience different paradigms. This of course will threaten the upward slope of compensation that one begins to expect (and frankly, needs, because of rising costs of one's commitments, such as raising children). The challenge is to make one's peace with the prospect of staying flat or going down in wages, really.
This is very likely to devolve into a partisan squabble, so I don't want to keep going back and forth on this. I was ready to cite examples of the left playing fast and loose with the truth but I sense it will just create hostility. If I pick only one example, it looks like I'm not prepared and have nothing substantial to counter with. If I list multiple examples, it will look like I came here prepared for a fight as a right wing partisan. How do you want to proceed, if at all?
Ok, just to be clear I want to preface this by saying "not all conservatives". I know plenty of conservatives who are lovely and intelligent people.

-------

Basically, I think that rabid anti-vax sentiment is a natural conclusion to roughly ~40 years of near-constant levels of conspiratorial thinking from conservative circles. I think folks like Jerry Fallwell started it, and subsequently Ronald Reagan and most of the conservative politicians after him followed. People like Jerry Fallwell more or less started the "satanic panic", and it started to become somewhat politically acceptable to just say that "the devil" was doing anything that they don't like. This went largely unchallenged in evangelical circles and the evangelicals took a huge turn towards the Republican party.

Fast forward to 2012, and now it's a debate about where Barack Obama was born. A "conspiracy" was just fabricated out of nowhere, and the president is required to show his birth certificate. This was somewhat made fun of, even Bill OReilly disputed it, but it was the first conspiracy that I had heard in my lifetime being taken seriously by at least some politicians.

Fast forward to 2016, and suddenly it seems that idiots like Alex Jones, who had previously been a goofball I would turn on to get a laugh, is being taken seriously by semi-prominent conservatives. PizzaGate was still somewhat of a fringe thing, but it was the first outright debunkable conspiracy that I could think of that people I actually knew who actually believed it.

Fast forward to ~2019, and a sizeable chunk of conservatives (to be clear, NOT a majority) were starting to take the QAnon nonsense seriously, setting the way for 2020, which allowed a basic stream of perpetual lies about COVID to be spread (and accepted) on 8kun. Suddenly, despite overwhelming evidence, we have to have debates on whether we should be taking COVID seriously. Any time Fauchi contradicted Trump, it was because Fauchi was an agent of Satan or something absurd.

I think anti-vaxxing is just the natural progression. There's been an entire generation who has been more-or-less unchallenged in their conspiratorial thinking, and basically anything can be a conspiracy theory. Since they already think that COVID was overblown to make Trump look bad, they subsequently have to think that anything that addresses covid must also be bad.

The left has its share of dumb things that it believes, but it's not nearly at the same level of what is predominant in conservative culture today.
Heh, understanding apache configuration files just made me facepalm harder and wasn't really critical to seeing the impact on the cybersecurity industry if people aren't able to responsibly disclose.

The important thing was to take the time, speak to the bill's author, speak to my colleagues, build a coalition of lobbyists from industry (big companies, startups, etc.), and not stop fighting the bill even after it passed the legislature.
Not a question, but I just want to thank you for "inventing" review apps back in the day, the idea of having a full version of your app running for a branch was pretty game changing for the companies I worked at.

As an aside, the article mentions:

> After the material is processed and carved into the desired shape, it is coated in *mineral oil* to extend its lifetime.

I was thinking how, surely, mineral oil isn't food-safe and well-fit for use on a utensil. However, it turns out that while low-grade mineral oil is proved carcinogenic, the high-grade version is not believed to be so, unless dispersed in a mist. And apparently, we consume quite a bit of mineral oil due to it's use in the baking industry (though that figure comes from 1961)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_oil#Food_preparation
> If you had the choice understand the concept 10 times slower but in the end would come up with twice the amount of connections, would you consider it as something valuable?

But then they aren't just thinking slower, they are doing more processing. It isn't just "slow vs fast', it is "more processing vs less processing". Similarly if two people eat hamburgers as fast, but one of them eat twice as many hamburgers and therefore takes twice the time, it doesn't make him a "slow eater" it just means he eats a lot per meal.

I have been revisiting an idea I've had many times in my life that is tangential to Paul's "Smart" vs. "New idea" differentiation. That is the difference between "Knowledge/Intelligence" on one axis and "Experience/Understanding" on another. I feel our modern society, as obsessed as it is with science and logic, highly prioritizes the former and unduly devalues the latter. I've started to wonder what "Artificial Understanding" looks like and if there is some systematic way to describe it. I also loosely define "Wisdom" as a kind of dialectic synthesis that bridges intelligence and understanding (and thereby knowledge and experience). I believe Wisdom is the place where new ideas are bred.

However, his essay struck a chord in me because it suggests a double edged sword. I'm ever-so-slightly above average intelligence. In almost every group I have ever been part of I sort near the top but rarely at the top. But I definitely have always demonstrated different thinking and often times new ideas. And I can report that not all new ideas are good ideas. This leads to quite a bit of insecurity/self-doubt. Sometimes I am literally a prophet that sees the future that no one else expected. Often I am completely off base. I have no repeatable means of discriminating between those cases.

What I have learned, in those times I have acted as a leader/manager, is that I don't always go with the most logical/intellectual idea presented to me. I try to always take into account experience/understanding. That is doubly true when I evaluate my own new ideas. I should ask myself: Am I leaning too heavily on knowledge/intelligence in an area where I lack understanding/experience?

Therefore I think Paul's stated trade-off of intelligence for new ideas is not strictly correct. I wonder if he would accept my knowledge/intelligence vs. experience/understanding description. If so, perhaps what he means to say is that for the generation of new ideas he might be willing to accept trading some innate capacity for intelligence for some innate capacity for understanding. In that way, perhaps one could increase the likelihood of synthesis between the two. Stated another way, it would be a sacrifice of intelligence to gain understanding with a goal to promote wisdom.

1) This is also small batch size. If you're inserting 500.000 rows/sec 5000 rows is not particularly large batch size

2) I see different graphs for ingest but not for queries. The data layout will depend on the batch size, unless of course you did OPTIMIZE before running queries
Goto is a useful precursor for writing a tail recursive solution.

For instance, say we have a state machine for recognizing that the last four button presses were 1234.

int keypad() // returns 1 if correct key is entered, otherwise loops forever
{
keypad:
switch (getkey()) {
case 1:
goto got_1;
default:
goto keypad;
}

got_1:
switch (getkey()) {
case 2:
goto got_2;
case 1:
goto got_1;
default:
goto keypad;
}

got_2:
switch (getkey()) {
case 3:
goto got_3;
case 1:
goto got_1;
default:
goto keypad;
}

got_3:
switch (getkey()) {
case 4:
return 1;
case 1:
goto got_1;
default:
goto keypad;
}
}

Now, refactor the same structure into tail calls. Now it's suddenly beyond reproach.

int got_1();
int got_2();
int got_3();

int keypad()
{
switch (getkey()) {
case 1:
return got_1();
default:
return keypad();
}
}

int got_1()
{
switch (getkey()) {
case 1:
return got_1();
case 2:
return got_2();
default:
return keypad();
}
}

int got_2()
{
switch (getkey()) {
case 3:
return got_3();
case 1:
return got_1();
default:
return keypad();
}
}

int got_3()
{
switch (getkey()) {
case 4:
return 1;
case 1:
return got_1();
default:
return keypad();
}
}

You can refactor any flow control graph based on goto, with local variables, into a network of tail calling functions. The tail call graph is isomorphic to the goto: it's just as complex and hard to understand. Yet it has the virtue of being beyond the reproach of computer science academia.
What's funny is how most of them are revolving around a similar culture of concepts (ODE, automated differentiation, analysis) which is very unlike mainstream computing.

Follow the broken logic.

1. "Banning anonymous social media accounts is not the answer to online abuse."

2. Primary section in support of #1 makes the far weaker claim: "Many abusers are not anonymous"

3. Primary support for #2 is the sentence: "However, research [link] shows that people using their real names perpetrate abuse and bullying too."

4. Linked article actually contains no scientific research, or even data gathering, on the topic at all.

This was just a festival of bad argument.

> I can't imagine had I grown up busy farming and raising siblings and then children in my 20s I would have been able to accomplish anything at all.

This really depends how you frame 'accomplishment', which is very much up to you. I think that successfully raising children who can successfully raise children is in and of itself an accomplishment; forming a family and keeping it intact through your inevitable troubles, working the land and producing enough excess food to earn everything else you need... our culture would be better if we actually viewed such people as 'accomplished' instead of pretending that being a C-suite officer of some SaaS b2b griftware is inherently of more value to anyone, anywhere.
