Here in Denmark, almost none of the food that the actual people here will eat next week is in the country yet. It's on its way in from overseas or further south.

Now, about 60% of the surface area is cultivated. Most of that (80%, so half of the country all in all) is used to grow pig feed. A lot (most, I think) of that meat is exported, in exchange for money - which was always very bad sustenance for pigs and people alike, and, these days, is digital, so in the sense that it "exists" at all, does so in the imagination of sand that was tricked into thinking.

There are many adjectives one could use to describe this situation. "Resilient" isn't one of them.

That's not going to save you any money though.

A FT developer who makes $75 an hour only accepts that pay because it's closer to $300/hr in practice (if you only count the hours they are actually productive, which maxes out at 2-3 per day for knowledge work).

A freelance developer of similar skill, who accurately bills per hour worked, will simply charge $300 per hour.

I always enjoy reading Schopenhauer, but I think it's a bit naive to ignore the context in which Schopenhauer is writing (this btw, is not meant as a criticism of the post or it's author, this is a very enjoyable write up). Schopenhauer is in world filled with academics who he largely feels do not appreciate his own brilliant work. He's concerned with people reading all day instead of digesting what they've read, and his quite happy to dismiss most people who dismiss him as idiots. He's likely envisioning hordes of academics lapping up Hegel's most recent piece as he writes this.

I don't think there are very many people left in the world who read in the way that Schopenhauer is criticizing in this essay.

I can only imagine the horror Schopenhauer would have faced on seeing modern day "infotainment", and how little people read or think in our current information environment.

However, he most certainly would have had a hilarious Twitter account.

The downside here is that LM pays about 30 to 50% of top tier tech companies with mostly worse benefits.

But otherwise, I agree. That’s a wonderful schedule along with usually great WLB in defense.

The other risk is that defense has been overfunded and high flying for years and years now. Usually goes in cycles with massive layoffs, and we haven’t had one in a long, long time.
The article (and title) is about funding work, not people.

Postgraduate scholarships are closer to "funding people", since you can propose any project you like (in my experience, anyway). Academic performance is the credential - not a terrible predictor but of course far from perfect.

And in academia, there are a lot of "moths", who use their position to do their own thing, outside the entire academial-publishing complex. A personal skunkworks.
Spotify actually lets you do that, so you're in luck. Add local files on your desktop to a playlist, download the playlist on your mobile device, done. I'm using the feature, it works. Though it does not work with my "Spotify remote play" (or whatever they're calling it) kitchen radio.

The feature is so niche, I half expect them to drop it without a word in any given update.

Native copper working is considered metallurgy in archaeology. If you disagree, feel free to take it up with the archaeometallurgists.

Moreover, purification from ores was done. The so-called copper bells of the southwest were mainly produced from ores rather than native copper and were often alloyed with arsenic or silver to modify the color. The main center of production was paquimé (~180mi west of the Rio Grande), but the cultural area extends well over the border into AZ, NM, and CO.

Absolutely, especially with the recent "invention" of the native font stack as a solution that does not require loading external files while showing a nice modern font.

Imagine if the trade-off was more explicit to the visitors: would you want something that made your web browsing slower, your text flashes in like a cheap powerpoint slide, and sent your data to Google, in exchange for being able to read in a different font? External web fonts are purely for the ego of the web developer, not for the reader.

Spotify is actually the only one of the big 3 (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music) that doesn't have a cloud music locker feature, and it's basically the entire reason I can't use it.

However, both YouTube Music and Apple Music treat your uploaded stuff as second-class citizens to the stuff streamed from their music collection. Which is one of the biggest reasons I miss GPM, since it was much better for that.

YouTube Music has a pretty intuitive music uploading system, though it comes with all the previously mentioned baggage of YTM. With Apple Music you have to upload through Apple Music on a Mac or iTunes on a PC, and it's a real clunky system that usually takes me a bunch of finagling and forcing syncs over and over again until it finally works. So pick your poison

Would you be okay if your former employees provided the software they built for you, with a complete git history, at their next job interviews?

If no, do you have a reason to assume that the former employers of your current job candidates would be okay with the same thing?
> you can try both points and only one will be on the curve.

Hmmm. You "decompress" the compressed key (a compressed key is one only transmitted using its x coordinate) and when you decompress, you can have two points on the secp256k1 curve (these are the "two solutions" TFA mentions): which is precisely why you pass the parity bit to get the correct one. There are two points are are going to validate y * 2 = x * 3 + 7 (mod p). So they're both on the curve right?

Now all the Bitcoin/Ethereum docs says that the parity is there to speed up computation: I took it they meant by that that of the two potentially valid public keys, only one shall have fund of them and that's easy to verify. And only the one with funds on it can actually do anything.

So I do agree that you don't technically even need that one bit (it only speeds up computation) however I do disagree that only one point will be on the curve (for both y and -y (aka P - y) will be on the curve).

The other option is that you strategically queue up those Google interviews well in advance of all others. I did that and they still managed to keep dragging their feet when I wrapped up the rest. Oh well.
But if you share your screen, you need to stream it to the peer. If this solution is already in the cloud on your VPS, meaning you only need to stream video to your computer. You send only small data of mouse/keyboard events.

Hi,

I was trying to explain that in the blog post too, in Apple Music your own added songs are uploaded and act as any other streaming song and I think it’s pretty amazing, also the fact that your song now has all the inherited features like Siri/Spotlight search!
Well if you know better you can always make money there.

Anyway this same technique is used in military, for example to measure distance from point A to point B somewhere far. People will take guesses and average will be used. It is effective and pragmatic. Obviously you should take it with a grain of salt. No one is claiming it is some sort of end all authority.

> It's been such a joy that I'm considering doing only this as a side hustle. "Saving" companies who were sold an over-complicated dream.

This has crossed my mind a lot lately. I think we are looking directly at one of the largest emerging markets in technology. What do we think the TAM is going to be for undoing webscale monstrosities by 2025? Not every business will fail due to their poor technology choices and will be able to pay some serious consulting fees...

I've practically got a system for doing this now. It mostly starts with domain modeling in excel and all the business stakeholders being in the loop at the same time until everyone agrees. I find if you get this part right it doesn't really matter if you use C# vs python, or AWS vs on-prem to build the actual product. Hard to get opinionated and locked in when your deploy to prod involves a 100 meg zip file and 3 lines of powershell ran against a single box.

No, I am not making a logical mistake, and your 'invalidation' of my argument is actually just restating it.

> You assume that if having certain traits makes you more likely to be effective evil mastermind it also means it must make it less likely that you are good person.

I do not, and I don't assume that the traits listed make you more likely to be an evil mastermind or a good person, I think they are completely unrelated to morality, and only related to effectiveness (this is what I mean when I say the traits don't correlate with being a good person at all). If you wanted to find the most effective neutral people, you would look for the same traits, because that's what they measure: effectiveness.

Another way of putting your claim: effective people are more likely to be good people. I think that is a very bold claim and have seen no evidence of it in my life, competence and goodness are orthogonal.
You are correct. I switched to yt-dlp just couple days ago (didn’t remember the name when I was typing the comment). YouTube-dl had started having issues where the download speed was super slow and restarting the download also didn’t work. Yt-dlp fixed it.
People have solved puzzles by hand in the past. No tool is off limit, including your brain, pen, and paper.

I would say the only thing that's "cheating" would be looking up solutions to "solve" the problem faster than other people, whether they be the rest of the world on the global leaderboard (which is unlikely since the people who make the leaderboard are good about not posting solutions until it's full) or some friends you're competing with on a private leaderboard.

Otherwise, let your conscience be your guide. As the saying goes, when you cheat, you're only cheating yourself.
Google search is going downhill in my experience.

But Schopenhauer also writes that "Thus we shall find that author profitable the occasional use of whose mind when we think affords us sensible relief, and by whom we feel borne whither we could not attain alone. Goethe once said to me that, when he read a page of Kant, he felt as if he were entering a bright room."
That’s exactly what Apple Music does, and the article even mentioned.

I switched from GPM to Apple Music and not Spotify because I have a lot of tracks that don’t exist on streaming services. I can have playlists consisting of apple Music songs and my own songs, and get full Siri integration, play on HomePods etc
I've been meaning for some time to write one of these (with auto-generation whereas I believe The Onion actually has staff write a new one each time they run this article) for password database loss. [Because if you use Security Keys this entire problem dissipates. Your "password database" is just a bunch of public data, stealing it is maybe mildly embarrassing but has no impact on your users and is of no value to the "thieves"]

But a Rust one for memory unsafety would be good too.
> Or are C/C++ benefits just too high to ever give up?

FFI is inherently memory-unsafe. You get to rewrite security critical things from scratch, or accept some potentially memory-unsafe surface area for your security critical things for the benefit that the implementation behind it is sound.

This is true even for memory-safe languages like Rust.

The way around this is through process isolation and serializing/deserializing data manually instead of exchanging pointers across some FFI boundary. But this has non-negligible performance and maintenance costs.
Wow total opposite experience for me. I find Google much better for casual searches, but DDG oceans better for anything technical.
