I get why someone might want to avoid .zstd ; but that is the short name offered for humans.

Was .zs not sufficient if a file format ending in 'std' is so abhorrent?
There are a lot of people who look at that past self as being something they fell away from. In some cases by choices they made and regret and in others where they suffered some accident. I'm not sure how the Hemingway quote is supposed to make them feel.
Same here. I enjoyed knowing there is one place where I can go and have everything done. They also sent reminders about vaccinations and checkups. I have moved away from CA so I don't have Kaiser anymore. I generally rarely go to a doctor and if I ever get sick I don't even know where to go :-(
You do realize, you can be distracted unintentionally, right?

Child crying in the backseat, car malfunctioning, animal crossing the road, object hitting your windshield, a car accident occurring next to you, being fired from your job and your wife divorcing you when you find out you have cancer, a meteor hitting the earth, a big sneeze, I could keep going.

> Correct me if I'm wrong but you appear to be taking the position that white people /are/ innately more intelligent than black people but we should ignore that. My position is that they aren't, and even if they were we still shouldn't dominate others.

No, I'm not taking that position at all. My position is the same as yours I think: I don't think white people are more intelligent than black people, and even if they were, that wouldn't give white people any rights over black people.
zstd is from 2015.
Embrace that feeling but reframe it. It means you've learned something and grown since you did that project a year ago.

If you looked back on work you did five years ago and didn't see room for improvement ... you've had no growth in your skills and experience.

Good point, I think the problem is not having The Date but as you allude to, having a top-down fearful environment of missing The Date. In an ideal world we would be able to communicate The Same Date all the way up and down with an understanding that personnel issues come up, sometimes estimates aren’t accurate, requirements change, etc. Maybe we expect The Date to only be hit 50% of the time and we’re all chill with slipping a few weeks/months/quarters depending on the size of the project.

This allows you to set dates that force you to prioritize (don’t delay shipping forever to add random features) without burning people out or shipping software that’s not ready for prime-time.

One problem in large organizations (especially ones that grow fast) is there is no common understanding of what deadlines/targets/The Dates mean. New engineers and management come in from environments where missing The Date is met with unpaid overtime or being fired, getting yelled at, etc. This causes problems when people with the opposite understanding - The Date is flexible and just a loose target - set Dates without padding or fully scoping something, or the opposite when those people become beholden to dates set by people who take them extremely seriously.

for at least my whole life until 2019, my dad would trade in his truck for a brand-new one every few years. he's the kind of guy who's excited by bells and whistles just for the sake of them, and he appreciated the new doodads with each new model... until 2019. the new truck that year was full of crap he has zero use for, like a 3G wifi hotspot. every few days after his purchase he went back to the dealership with some new problem with some part of the truck. typically this would only happen once every few years or months, but it happened several times in rapid succession over the course of a couple weeks. maybe my dad just got a fantastically unlucky lemon of a truck, but it's undeniable that feature creep increases points of failure.

Where do you find great books?
I found a couple websites that recommend books and while they're decent, most times, the best book discoveries come from social media sites (almost randomly).

I'm not a fan of this method, because it makes discovering good content difficult.

Is there a place you've go to that consistently has good book recommendations?
>> People should be able to talk about something and let it be unaffiliated with the company they work for.

I doubt that's doable. What if the CEO of Pfizer goes to antivax protests or suports them online(i.e on Twitter)? I'm pretty sure the board /shareholders would (rightfully) send him home the next day.
This - is not it. He who plays in the defense has to be eternally vigilant and can not loose once.

Best approach in my eye is to form a "one" cause party, whos only "cause" is to power-bust and promptly dissolve afterwards, and not touch on partisan issue. "Block Buster"Party might sound strange, but if the only purpose is to disrupt power imbalances and then self-dissolve to trigger the next election - that could get a majority.

You should remember that whenever you see things people put out, you're usually seeing their best, most polished work. It's true that if you follow hn for example you'll see lots of impressive work done by really motivated and talented people. This, however, is the tip of the tip in many ways.

Don't judge yourself harshly and try to detach from comparisons with the world. In your spare time do whatever you find meaningful because of the thing itself, not because of how impressive it is.

Also note that building things, even if they're basic, is more motivating and useful than going over endless tutorials, wiki pages, online courses etc.

And again, do what is meaningful to you, not what is fashionable or impressive to strangers, hn, recruiters etc.

Indeed, they aren't building successful rockets. But the re-learning process for them would still be much faster than if you start with people with zero experience.

It's like saying there's no point in keeping a National Guard around, because if a war comes, the guardsmen will have no actual war fighting experience. That might be true, but they'll still be able to man a 155mm howitzer, or dig a trench, or perform a patrol at night in a forest or 100 other things better than me.

The info I'm thinking of came from a Pew report that went around work, I'm not finding that on the public internet. There is this, which comes up with a similar number:

That also claims:

"The number of mobile connections in the United States of America in January 2020 was equivalent to 107% of the total population."

I'm not sure how to disaggregate that to humans. I do personally have more than one device with a data plan, although I'm not sure how typical that is.

It is strange to see all submissions about Kyle Rittenhouse disappear very quickly. I just thought that if more or less randomly selected 12 jury members agreed that he was innocent then what most people really think and what the media portraits it to be are very different things.

It maps GMT hours to A-Z letters (omitting I and O). The advantage is that there isn't any confusing overlap between common 'folk' understanding of what hours are what, and the new time values are easily distinguishable from traditional timestamps without need for a TZ marker.

In a way it would carve out a separate, global sense of time in our mental space for use when we do need to coordinate (or just want to opt out of DST shenanigans), and yet let notions like "12:00 means lunch" live on alongside each other.
Vaccination isn't a binary state. Protection wanes over time. I don't know where to get the data, but I'd guess that most people in Gibraltar have been vaccinated quite a while ago.

Maybe we need tighter schedules, i.e. one shot every two months? With delta, i think that's when effectiveness starts to wane.
You sound a lot like someone I know. And like someone I know, I gave them lots of advice like the kind you're getting here that never really took with them. Then I realized something. The way you experience the world is different from "most people", and thus the advice for "most people" will just make you feel more empty as you struggle and fail with it.

Here's what I can tell you about yourself. You are probably much smarter, much more talented, and have more good qualities than you realize. You have to constant challenge these messages you're telling yourself (use CBT as a framework). Start digging _deep_ for your good qualities, remind yourself of them constantly. Start "doing the opposite", and work on radical acceptance. Get a good coach/therapist who can understand you, and help you see yourself.

You can find joy and happiness in life, once you accept that what that looks like for you is different than how it looks for other people. Acceptance is key.
To really act meaningfully in the world outside crypto, DAOs needed to be wedded to LLCs so they can participate in the legal system.

But...the DAO governance structure allows very low friction, high transparency coordination between pseudononymous strangers on the internet.

The DAO is the "real" manifestation of the collective will of a bunch of people, the corporate shell is just going to perform whatever actions the DAO votes on.

"but I can’t convince myself that these traits are actually true. I feel untalented, empty and dumb."

They probably are 'true' in some sense, but that doesn't mean you can't feel untalented/empty/etc at the same time. Appearing to be 'creative' and 'in learning mode' is how other people see you - feeling untalented/empty is how you see your self. They can both be true at the same time. But your feelings about yourself aren't the whole truth, and they can (and will) change over time too, just like other people's views of you may change, depending on you, the other people, and other factors outside of everyone's control.

Maybe you should stare out of the window for a while - I don't mean forever, but it seems like you're trying to engage in some self reflection, and that can take time. And 'wasting' time is often not seen as a good thing by others, or indeed ourselves. I struggle often with trying to give myself some 'time off' for anything.

With all that said, you dropped a bomb in the last paragraph about medication. There's no doubt in my mind that this is a contributing factor to your mental health state (it might be a positive factor, but it's certainly in the mix). and as such, you should also be seeking out some folks with experience with these medications.
It is! Trading your own account in front of a client's order with knowledge of your client's order is, indeed, frontrunning!

However, given domains are not securities and domain registrars are not FINRA members or registered securities broker-dealers, I don't think this is "frontrunning" in the sense that you're used to hearing the word.

So who knows if it's even illegal, and even if it is, who knows what recourse anyone has about it, given how quasi-legal and international the ownership of domains is.

I think it's safe to assume that you would only get the check mark if your NFT is minted from the original contract. This is an issue for brand new collections (and you see this happen on OpenSea where people fork new a new popular collection). But it's really easy to just whitelist the original BAYC contract address

This is a bit off topic, but I have been an avid photographer on my spare time, and I have some nice lenses and tried others and looked through even more.

How in the world were they able to build optics for satellites sattlies that could see such details on the ground?

It seems like magic to me.

It is also frustrating because I would love to have a lens based on that technology.
yes, it is. I was thinking taking them to consumer protection court, but I realized it is not worth my time.
This isn't entirely the corps fault, but legacy legal licensing agreements on each. and every. piece. of content. Not to mention all the unions you ave to deal with to make sure all the talent in the content gets paid. Clearances AND tracking can be a nightmare. A lot of that has improved in the pat decade as digital/streaming agreements are now standard, but getting content (like the music in a show for example) cleared for all territories can still be a headache.
googled it to find the whole thing is on vimeo. So... technically its on a streaming service.
Exactly. Trump weaponized this principle, making very rash and sudden moves during negotiations. This disadvantaged others, because they had trouble predicting his reaction to their own actions, thus moderating them in his favor or "You're fired!". I think a US general took it upon himself to inform China they would not be attacked, no matter what Trump threatened, because he himself was unable to model Trump's mind. "My task at the time was to de-escalate".

Also why MAD does not work well against information warfare. Is the current polarization of culture and politics a natural outgrowth of American culture, the result of unwitting civilians being targeted by military black and grey propaganda, or an unentangleable combination of the two? Did the opponent push the button? Did we push it back in the 80s and did they notice? Where exactly do we stand and draw the line, allowing countries to defend their (cultural) borders and feel safe, without the constant threat and fallout from offenders, who act like children pushing their parents to see how far they can go.

Sometimes I suspect these larger than life scientists working on the top-secret projects, Turing, Feynman, Shannon, Neumann, Kolmogorov, Tesla, Satoshi, were actually collections of people working undercover, an Alan Smithee catch-all type to launder intelligence, take credit, while keeping it in the shadows. Like the unnamed people supporting Bobby Fisher in his match against Russia. Modern day equivalents would be companies like Google, Dell, IBM, and Microsoft.

The moment the bomb became a button, was the moment the physicists had to step aside, and let the decision theorists step in. The bomb effectively became about how to make winning decisions. Decision science itself weaponized, opponents worrying about the analysts on the other side, not the aviators: you would know they would follow orders, and drop the bomb if instructed. You never fully know what those instructions were going to be, but you wanted to find out. Strategic Cold war espionage and misinformation must have ran wild.
It's kinda the opposite of DRM though, there's a strong culture of CC0 / public domain licensing in the NFT space. The idea is that you should be able to use and remix media freely but you can preserve a kind of monetary value through which artists get paid via a novel concept of ownership.
I've been really impressed with Wooting keyboards for gaming after trying many alternatives. (My daily driver for coding is a Kinesis Advantage2 due to RSI, but they suck for games.)

> Disney creates works billions of people want to see.

Yup!

> and they have governments around the world enforce the ownership rights.

This is one of the strongest selling points of crypto for its supporters; that, when it makes sense, floaty, legal ownership rights can be replaced with hard cryptography. It doesn't make sense for every good, or even every digital good.

> Nobody wants the piece of art associated with your NFT’s

Speaking wholesale for seven billion human beings, I see.

> And is there even any legally framework for the ownership of NFT’s or is it just something a weird club of people says is so?

Ideally, theoretically; its not a legal framework, its a cryptographic framework. The minting address of the original artist would be publicly known, and is encoded into the chain of custody for every NFT.

This is the jump that many detractors don't make. Its not the blockchain that prescribes authenticity to the NFT; the chain VALIDATES authenticity, it doesn't prescribe it. Its not OpenSea (though they can definitely make it all more user friendly). Its the chain of custody and the address of the original minter.
Probably the best option is any car with a manual transmission. These generally don't have any cruise control beyond the basic speed-keeping, no lane-keep assist, and generally are base models with less infotainment tech.

The fun factor should not be discounted, either.

Yes, they are still doing it. You can visit their web site 10xmanagement.com to see for yourself. They still represent me. The same founders have a parallel company 10X Ascend built specifically around negotiating for full-time jobs, not the same as the full agent model.

I don’t really know how hard it is to get taken on by 10X. The process wasn’t particularly hard for me (in 2013). I know they have a fairly long backlog of applications. I know they prefer people with significant experience and specialized or in-demand skills who already know how to work independently with customers.

Agents will of course specialize in fields they understand, and an agent can only credibly represent a small number of clients. I imagine the agent model doesn’t scale as easily as recruitment or “body shop” consulting companies, because it’s more personal and tailored than a numbers game.

Like I wrote I have heard of other agents in the software field, but I only have direct experience with 10X Management. I found out about them from a magazine article.

Very true. But it seems these countries try to keep the system accessible and affordable for patients. The US system seems designed to keep profits for providers, instances and employers while the patient has to pay without having having any market power. From a cost and transparency perspective I think it would be hard to design a worse system than the US system.
