>>All that my middle-school textbooks said was Tipu Sultan used them against the Brits.

The area that is now Karnataka, or erst while state of Mysore/Deccan has a rich culture of knowledge and art that has been pervasive regardless of the political entities that have ruled over them.

Its also understandable as that area has relatively more peace, stability and tolerance compared to other areas in the sub-continent, hence economic-knowledge prosperity follows from there.

Tipu like many before him was the beneficiary of a long going positive social inertia. No doubt he was good, but he had a lot going for him.

Even as of now. Karnataka has done relatively compared to bulk of India since Independence.
I'm sorry the hear that, and I think it's mostly worng.

I should add though that some activities are indeed useful, one of those is certainly teaching. If PhD students have full responsibility over the course, or part of the course, of which they're entrusted, it can be a very productive activity.

It is particularly formative if PhD students are entrusted with teaching activities covering subjects closely related to their thesis. In this way they can practice speaking over the things they are studying, which brings a ton of experience and positive growth.

On the contrary, if it's just teaching to cover hours that the professor to which the course is appointment is not willing to do, than it's much less attractive.

As a general rule, I'd suggest to a PhD student to be as selfish as possible. Although apparently counterintuitive, in their position it is a good rule of thumb to only engage in things that bring some tangible (but not necessarily immediate) utility. There are way too many professors willing to take advantage of younger positions for their own agenda. And that is also why it's very important who your thesis supervisor is.

Finally: never underestimate the "contractual power" that a PhD student has over a professor. Apart of few exceptions, professors need PhD students more than PhD students need professors. And in the case of those exceptions in which the professor is so well known and respected that there is a waiting list to be a PhD student, then I'd bet that it will also be so because such professor knows how to properly supervise PhD students.
Yeah sure, they report, we decide. Weird thing, I can go on YT or Reddit and easily find all sorts of conspiracy theories and fake news. It's almost as if when you give the population the ability to post their own content, it's going to reflect what different segments of the public believe, and others who agree will be drawn to that.
Are any salaries correlated with company performance?

Salaries are determined by the market price for that labour; meaning if you want to hire Alice to be your CEO you are bidding against others who also want Alice. The price is what Alice will take to work for you, and not another company.

That is essentially how all salaries are set. There is no mystery.

The public steadfastly refuse to believe in anything other than a mythological-moral meaning to prices. It is absolutely bizarre. Prices arent set by anyone and have no moral significance. (All this stuff about tech "scalping" given shortages is likewise the same fallacy. )

> I have no proof but it's reasonable to think that would transfer to shorter PHD programs.

I didn't enter one (regretfully) anywhere - but from what I recall when looking, US/Can typically have more of a taught element in preparation, included in the first year or two of the PhD programme.

Sort of like doing an MPhil or something followed by PhD I suppose, but built-in and I assume designed to counter the effect you describe.

Outside of work (which is great), my main personal battle at the moment is adapting to yet another foreign country.

Have done quite a bit of moving around in my life but this time it was for a relationship (i.e. not for work or studies) and given that I work remotely, it's very hard to integrate into society. I know no one and don't have a place like an office where I get to cover my social needs (no coworking spaces around either).

And then on the side trying to get back into writing. I had a brief stint as a reasonably popular/successful independent technical writer, but now starting up a separate blog for deeper, more unstructured pieces about anything really. It's a bit of therapy too, following a year with its ups and downs.
Why do the subscriptions have to die? Companies have monthly recurring payroll costs—it makes sense to have monthly recurring revenue too.

Also, it makes monthly budgeting easier for individuals.
Why are you writing dates with an extra zero in front?
Timeboxing is so powerful, done right.

You can do it all the way down to Pomodoro-like work chunks counted in minutes, up to long term strategic goals and have things like quarterly OKRs and Scrum-like sprints in the middle.

The best entrepreneurs naturally think and act like this, from Elon Musk to the late IKEA-founder Ingvar Kamprad, who is quoted saying:

“You can do so much in 10 minutes time. Ten minutes, once gone, are gone for good. Divide your life into 10-minute units and sacrifice as few of them as possible in meaningless activity.”
And anything that is static and needs to be up can just be cached at the edge somewhere, which is peanuts really, and means that if your bare metal goes down, you can still keep something up
Mimalloc improved Bun’s performance on macOS by 10%.
The cache misses alone mean the cloud should be cheaper than bare metal. In general you can buy outright any cloud service for about 3 months of the price of the cloud.

Why anyone would run their pointer chasing code in a heavy cache eviction environment is beyond me. The code is slow to start with, and then you make sure that none of your data is in the cache. Why you'd pay 10x for slower hardware makes no sense.

What people should be doing is running on bare metal and turning off all the garbage meltdown protections that kill performance. If you're not a cloud provider and you're allowing people to execute arbitrary code on your hardware, you've got much bigger problems than meltdown.
And the good news is you can sell each sampled chip at insane markup, because those few are guaranteed.
Low tech in this case means off grid.

Imo low tech does not have to mean low availability, low tech website to me is a static website hosted on object storage with some cloud based CDN infront.
Yes the stringent requirement of getting a test that proves that you've recovered.

If their network is underutilized, they have an interest to open it. If their goal is to build a walled garden, they will not open it. So far the latter hypothesis matches the observations better.
2 is an interesting one because almost every day on /r/relationship_advice there is at least one thread where someone asks what to do when they discover "the one" has kept a secret from them for a long time and now they don't trust them any more. I imagine that response would be different if someone suddenly declared that they were rich, versus that they used to be a sex worker but sudden changes in the relationship status can certainly be unhealthy in a variety of ways.
I only read about the german minister of transport, Andreas Scheuer, was in talks to Tesla to open up the charging network. The source I have is here:

https://ecomento.de/2021/06/16/tesla-soll-supercharger-fuer-...

So, I think the logic was: eventually it will happen anyway - so it's better for Tesla to do it themselves before they are forced to, so that they can do it on their own terms. For example, so that Tesla drivers will never have to wait longer than x minutes.
Title insurance at least here in the US. Not sure what you guys do in the UK.
Sure, but the main item was missing. Like other posters have said - you paid Amazon to deliver an item, that item was missing. There was nothing to return at all in my opinion and I would have refused any request to return from amazon. I know hindsight and all, but yeah. If your account is in good standing Amazon would(should?) just refund it. If you have a new account or if you did this a few times already they will be pissy about it.
I did, but I see absolutely no performance improvements.

Maybe notebooks require something more?

The goal should be to do whatever makes the code read nicely, instead of forcing a single pattern which won’t work well in very case.

Destructuring where two funcs in the same scope return the same named object key will make your code harder to read for example.

Function options split across multiple lines also make things harder to read and make it less able to fit logic on a single screen.

I prefer less verbose code if I can have my function calls as single lines <80 char wide with self-documenting names that read like recipe instructions as to what is going on step by step.

Prettier’s line splitting makes things less readable a lot of the time. I use prettier-ignore quite a bit.
>Isn't the prevailing view that nuclear arsenals have made number-of-soldiers largely irrelevant?

Sino-US theatre will be largely naval, relatively little combatants from both sides on open waters with no civilians around. I personally wouldn't rule out tactical nukes (especially on PRC's part) if things turn desperate. It's about as optimal and opportunist conditions for rationalizing using theater level nukes. The calculations for escalation spiral is more permissible compared to USSR massing troops to roll across europe, and even then NATO/USSR had plans to tactically nuke buffer states filled with civilians. Sino-US maritime war is significantly more volatile than USSR-NATO landwar specifically because it's easy to rationalize nuking each others naval groups on open ocean as long as it doesn't spread to PRC/US soil. PRC has their no first use doctrine, but doctrines change when situations turn existential. There is a report from 6 months ago by Congressional Research Service about "nonstrategic nuclear weapons" with respect to PRC and Russia, because tactical nukes has NEVER been off the table for peer warfare by major nuclear powers.
Tbh I'm quite surprised. Loading up on debt vs deposits sounds like a better alternative in this climate
This is a similar attitude that you sometimes still see in employers with pregnant employees.

Your total justification seems to be that because it was hard for you, it will be hard for others too.

Fwiw my partner got her PhD part-time while working for the university as a researcher and consultant, actively authoring and publishing papers. It took her many years, but mostly it was finishing that was tough.

Why are most answers pretending that the choice is between meat and plant-based fake meat? For millennia, people have been eating plant proteins straight from the plant, like chickpeas and lentils. The glorious south-Indian cuisine is largely vegetarian and doesn't need any fake meat. The Catholic practice of fasting during Fridays and Lent has resulted in many delicious Mediterranean recipes without meat (or even fish), again, without any "meat substitutes".
Yes, but Elementary, Android, Windows and Qt can scale icons and all elements together with the text to any arbitrary scale, pixel-perfect, without any post-processing.

GTK can only scale text, or scale the whole window to 2x, 3x, etc and then scale it back down in post-processing.
Yes you generally can in the UK too, just ask the lecturer as a courtesy at least, if there's capacity they'll probably be pleased someone's keen, but might ask you don't submit any problem sheets or whatever for grading.

That's not what GP means though: in the first year in the US, generally speaking, undergraduates aren't enrolled on a particular programme; they take a range of courses from different faculties for credit, and decide which area to 'major in' (and perhaps additionally 'a minor') later.
Too late to edit and also only tangentially related but I think it is worth mentioning that Nazis also tried to get rid of Jehovas Witnesses, Gypsies and probably a number of others as well.
This is quite normal. Many who win big in the literal lotteries are worse off. I know reddit is all antiwork these days, but that's really mostly about rights and not not working.

Being a productive member of society is meaningful. I'm from Scandinavia and a lot of our identity is tied up with our careers. Being without a job or any structural social purpose is asking for depression.

GWF Hegel wrote about suffering from indeterminacy. In short, autonomy is inherently social, so ways of life that are merely abstract (i.e. that society does not recognize in terms of existing mores) are void of satisfaction. Satisfaction is only real and concrete through reciprocal recognition. So the "I can do anything" type of freedom is only mere freedom (Willkür), which drains the individual of intersubjectively verifiable self-determination. I.e. you're determining yourself, but no one can recognize it without coercion, and you're unable to recognize it in social reality only in your mind. (And conversely, over-determinacy is slavery.

So even if you don't need to work for money, you might need a job to be able to find meaning in your life. We are a social species that survive on collective efforts.

Personally, if I had won lots of money I would strive to live on as if I didn't.
Work hours adapt to human behavior. Some industries end "work" around 3pm. Some ends at noon. DST is basically a communism way to force everyone to adopt a standardized time that a leader there envision. What happens if the day turn darker at 3pm when dark storms last for 3+ hrs till night and repeatitively across days or weeks? Micro-DST for weather as well? Messing with times via DST +/-1hr won't get much other than confusions. Time is zero sum game however you rearrange it.
They get to leverage their early investment here. It's not going to be a loss leading enterprise either. Which is why there will be more players. Most highway fueling stations, if they haven't already, will be installing charging infrastructure. Likewise for malls, super markets, any commercial operation with parking lots basically. This will be demand driven rather than opportunistic. But it will happen nonetheless.
> but of course that doesn't mean that nobody should have children!

Of course. For some short-term pain, the child's labour capability provides a clear economic benefit.

What are you going to get out of your short-term PhD pain? At best a job, where you are still limited by your individual labour output. Not exactly a scalable model.
A few years ago I joined an Improv groups. The idea was to do something completely different and to get out of my comfort zone. Works terrifically.

Turns out that the people organizing those groups also have a lot of different projects, from normal theater acts to workshops in schools to teach kids foreign languages via theater techniques.
Also turns out that that (oh surprise !) they have a some IT requirements and they can't really handle that themselves.
So I have been helping them for 2 years now; designing websites, managing wordpress, setting up a Google Workspace, managing contacts, consulting on project management... (nothing part of my daily job). But also a lot of random stuff, like organizing a festival, being a cameraman for a live stream night...

In short: join an association / NGO / charity. You will meet really great people, and bringing basic IT knowledge can sometimes make a huge difference for them.
That's an interesting analogy. If you can find recorded examples of part-time Olympic athletes from a competitive country that would help your point. By a competitive country, I mean one with non-negligible chance of getting a medal in that sport.

I wonder if they exist and if so, how rare.

I suspect it's extremely rare or non-existent for an athlete who holds another full-time job up to the selection time to get selected into a US Olympic swimming team, for example.

Large numbers of them, nonetheless, require activity, while others are unreasonable.

Happy Birthday! It appears currently you own just virtual money. ASAP get in contact with some private banking (those that represent rich people), they know how to lower the financial risks so that you can keep this fortune. Think long term, so do not burn this wealth on stupid items (like luxury cars) yet.

New friends can be very costly, indeed! Good advise is priceless.

Advise given by other people? Think: What is their financial status? Do they work with these type of questions? Just ask: What would they do with 10k of 100k. Most will burn it, short term! = WRONG

Like I never give medical advise, because I only finished first aid class.
The article is not written by an AI - all the facts are correct, and the internal references within the sentences are all correct. I have used invisible iframes as security sandboxes for third party code. The “Modular Development” section is weak IMHO, since visible iframes introduce UI and UX issues.

It reads like something a web developer might write. I googled two sentences as a test, and they were both unique to that page and site.

Edit: code quality is questionable - by my reckoning. Look at code buttons on this page: https://celody.com/modules.html

I remember reading about something similar a few years ago. A lady had paid off her mortgage turned out that made her property vulnerable because without the mortgage company being involved there were less checks. Someone stole her post, impersonated her and sold her property without her knowledge obtaining the deed as well I think. Its always stuck in my brain!

I wonder if thats what happened here too?
Yeah, I guess that's true.
You're right, but also people really, really like meat. And they'll continue to want to eat it a great deal. Very, very few people would willingly choose bean caserole over steak and chips more than even 10% of the time.

Basically, Unity Cloud can auto build commits for you but it doesn't work with pull requests unless you set it up manually.

This way it trigger a build for a PR and the set a status check. It's a good solution for people who don't want to set up their CT by themselves.

> I'm currently paying 45€ for a Ryzen server with 64gb ECC ram and 1tb nvme storage (raid1).

That does sound like a really good deal!

Until now i've only been using VPSes (apart from homelab servers as CI nodes etc.) because they're cheaper for the smaller sizes, but for comparison's sake, the cheapest VPS provider's (that i know of and trust) offering with 64 GB of RAM and 640 GB of storage would cost ~260 euros a month: https://www.time4vps.com/?affid=5294

Well, i guess there's also other VPS providers out there that can nearly match the price, like Contabo, though they do have mixed reviews: https://contabo.com/en/ (personally i just found their UI to be extremely dated and there are setup fees, but otherwise they were decent), though even then they'd cost anywhere from 30 - 90 euros a month.
Meant to say: mammal mother produces a viable offspring through parthenogenesis, which in mammals would be XX, a daughter, an in-bred individual. Now, if that daughter produces another daughter through parthenogenesis, then this second generation of parthenogenesis individual would be a clone of the first generation daughter.
