A lot of it is just old school grifting techniques adapted to the latest tech.

The whole thing is still (temporarily) unregulated, and somewhat akin to the CA gold rush, where the stores that sold mining equipment made most of the money, but combined with modern bits of cult-ish pyramid scheme behavior like you see in Amway and Scientology.

A couple years after 9/11, my father and I had donated to the Holy Land foundation.

You won't believe it but for an export nation like Germany (which doesn't export much IT services) it is good if other governments have to spend less.
For a different perspective on certifications, I just got my CKA cert from the Linux Foundation, and that test is legit: all simulation, no multiple choice. They use a full test cluster, backed by killer.sh, and every question involves some legitimate shell skills in addition to knowing k8s backwards and forwards. I was so impressed by the level of work that was put into the testing. May go back and get the other two certs if company will pay for it and it makes sense.
Looks very promising. Anybody tested it yet? The benchmarks look phenomenal https://www.betrfs.org/faq.html !

Even if far from production ready for important data, I can see its immediate uses for certain kinds of software, where the disk is used as a large scratch pad for example. Lot's of random writes are common in photogrammetry in large datasets, where I imagine BetrFS can be used during compute and the final output stored on ZFS.

Instead of yet again change the same low-influence gears, people would better start learning proper usage and positioning. How you type and sit has far more influence on your health than the layout ones uses.

If you watch the linked SPJ video, I timestamped it at the moment where he explains what he means with "avoiding success at all costs", but also: if you watch a bit longer he shares the story of a GHC compiler bug where if you compiled a module on windows, and in a different directory than the current directory, and it contained a type error... it would tell you there was a type error, and then delete the source file.

And instead of people going berserk over this, all he got was some friendly emails from people who just wanted to inform him they bumped into this problem, but it's fine, they had a workaround. Because Haskell people in those days were used to Breaking changes with a capital B.

I think that's at least a little bit punk
I almost always filter for items shipped from and sold by Amazon. The only times I buy from third-party sellers are when the seller is clearly the manufacturer or a large distributor.

I dislike Youtubes transformation towards TV as much as anyone, but we should stay reasonable here. This just makes complaints seem infantile.

Yes, this move is to shield large publishers, their business partners, looking for success in a new digital world instead of the "small contributors" as Youtube itself claims.

I believe this will make Youtube worse and other platforms might take its place. People will invent other metrics like being ratio'd on Twitter. Not that their algorithm didn't already show you heavily disliked content from "reputable" news sources anyway.

Haven't met anyone that likes this move, but they are still in a dominant market position for now. I doubt they will stay there honestly if they continue to consolidate content.

>Another article ruined. I can't read further after that, if the author is wrong about that, he might also be wrong on things i'm not an expert on, so i won't be able to take anything i read on this seriously. People should just stop talking about history in political articles, they ruin it every time. Or maybe they should everytime, and allow history geeks to classified them easily in the "untrustworthy" category.

I'm not the guy, i just linked the blog which had examples. My reading of the blog isn't that he's taking a position but rather pointing out how the wiki page is clearly written by someone who does not believe Jesus ever existed. That Christians wouldn't write the article that way.

That's what arguing the metaphor is. It's adding to it to change or subvert the meaning and change the direction of the conversation.

Several people got paid for coming up with that sentence, and many others like it ... just saying.
The website doesn't seem to mention that several of the papers on the filesystem won best-paper awards at major conferences. The paper, Optimizing Every Operation in a Write-Optimized File System, in particular, won best-paper award at FAST '16.

In general, I think it's really cool that there is a file system that exists today (i.e., BetrFS) that uses data structures which didn't exist 25 years ago. It's a great example of theoreticians and systems researchers working together.

Virtual Machine Showdown: Stack versus Registers (2005) [pdf]
Some years ago my then 3 year old picked up a payphone in a very remote area and said "hello, hello" into the receiver. I'm reasonably sure that is the first landline phone he ever say in his life.
Yeah, but the difference I believe is the FCC publishes the entire question pools to prevent third parties from selling a "dump".

Ideally the pools are far larger than the questions you'd receive on the actual exam so trying to memorize the right answers is actually harder than engaging with the material.
These test providers could do the same thing. They should expand their test pools to be extremely large by tweaking the values in each question so that one Q becomes 10.

Prior to the federal government publishing question pools (I believe FAA does too), testing groups would send in folks to sit for the exam, memorize the questions then run outside and record what they saw. Do that enough times and the question pools emerged in their records and then they grew a big business selling that "dump".

I can't imagine managing large question pools manually, but with digital tools it's become trivial in edtech circles. Why these test providers don't end it is beyond me. (Probably because the federal "cert" game status quo is plenty lucrative.)

Your explanation only makes sense if you base the value of the art on the experience of viewing it, or the intrinsic value.

People like owning objects that have a history or story about them, like a ring worn by their great great grandmother, a medal earned by their grandfather for fighting in a war, or something their child made for them. These things have little to no intrinsic value, yet people can regard them as priceless because of the history surrounding the object.

The same can be true of paintings and other works of art. It's one thing to hang a thing on your wall that a world-famous master created and an entirely different thing for a copy made by a low-wage worker in Asia. Physically they could be identical but the history is different.

To get to NFTs specifically, I don't think an NFT as currently implemented captures this concept.

You could have legit indicators of ability on your resume and you'll get a technical interview anyway. People are being just as suspicious of certs as they are prior experience. No one really trusts resumes at all, so it makes cert trustworthiness kind of moot.
No. You're reading it wrong.

Nothing wrong with showing emotions. Irritation is an emotion. There is a difference between showing emotion and throwing a tantrum. E.g., you might notice at no point have I demanded anybody's resignation or their groveling public apology.

The whole point of the article was a man's journey to understand Feynman's personal definitions of words, which were based on how he thought and understood problems. Knocking all the sharp corners from interpersonal communications means you value conformity over diversity of thought. That seems a poor tradeoff to me.

Yeah I hadn’t heard it was a cult, and I wouldn’t read too far into it. Anything taken to the extreme gets weird, and he has made his life from it so he’s as extreme as it gets. I think for him it’s definitely something he came to while taking psychedelics, so it’s probably spiritual and “the right way to live”.

In my mind to have a cult you need other people, and I’ve never met with anyone for a GTD meetup. To me the point of GTD is for it to be as low drag and out of the way as possible, so that you spend as little time on it as necessary.

It’s a tool in the tool belt like anything else. The key ideas I (try) to use:

- Weekly review (just carve out time to get organized each week in a structured way)

- Inbox / place to capture things

- 2 minute rule - if it takes less than 2 minutes, do it (sometimes 5 depending on the context)

- Contexts to let me think about work and personal items separately (though I keep them physically separate and work stays on work machine).

- Agendas (@person) which is a bucket used for anything and everything I need to talk to the person / team / group about. I’ve got tons of agenda lists.

- Snoozed items - need to change oil in 6 months? Put it in the inbox to call the shop to set up an appointment, and snooze it for 5 months.

- Delegate / Defer / Do workflow for email and (somewhat) zero inbox.

- Horizons of focus, and making sure I’m not too heavily focused in one area or missing one completely.

- Natural planning method is also good.

Viewing GTD as a cult to me is like viewing agile as a cult (which… now that I think about it…). In all seriousness, GTD is a way to think about to do lists and all the incoming information, and presents a way to handle it to get it out of your mind. There are a lot of ways one could do that besides GTD, but the book + tools (I use omnifocus) are well established and mature, so it’s a good and time tested approach.

Its about having the right information at the right time so that you can take the desired (pre-planned) action to achieve some outcome. If you want it to, omnifocus will tell you when you are nearby a physical store (context @bestbuy) and show you the to dos or things to purchase only when you are there (project get kids’ Christmas gift & task buy printer ink). Or if you shop online you could make your context @computer, so when you open the computer you can look at the list and work out of it. I don’t go that far, but some do.

A Relational Theory of Data Governance
The thing about trials is that there's a reasonable chance the patient ends up in the control/placebo group, which is something to think about when signing up for miracle. It could help explain some of the "done nothing" studies in your friend's journey.

A good friend of mine signed up for a trial as an alternative treatment for her aggressive breast cancer, everyone's hopes went up (trials tend to have that effect on people) but "nothing happened". She passed away 6 months after the trial started without knowing if a placebo was used. It's painful anecdata, but the few people I know that got into cancer studies as an alternative to their regular treatment, none ever had the study knowingly influence their outcome. Yet, in every case, the study was the one-hundred-percent animic lifeboat to grab on to.

Participating in a trial is about helping science just as, or more than, it is about helping yourself.

This. If you have a point of view, then by definition you are not neutral. I know socialists who favour The Telegraph (right-wing) over The Guardian (left wing, supposedly) because The Telegraph is more open about its biases.

Do you see how this might not be received well? You admit to not being an expert and not basing your opinion on evidence, and then jump in with supporting something anyway. A quick google search picks up a bunch of results suggesting that private prisons are in fact meaningfully worse.

I think that this is particularly bad since there are many different pronunciations for btrfs. E.g. Wikipedia says

> Btrfs (pronounced as "better F S", "butter F S", "b-tree F S", or simply by spelling it out)

and I heard all of them in practice (except for spelling it out).
While you can hear the difference for "b-tree F S", the other ones are much harder to distinguish.

There are multiple studies[1] showing that lifting to exhaustion yields the same results regardless of the weight and number of reps, so it already seems like you're repeating conventional wisdom rather than verifiable science.

There seems to be so little science in the fitness world, I have trouble trusting anything. My friend is a physical therapist and shocked me by saying almost nothing they do has been verified by double-blind trials. I had always thought they were evidence-based practitioners, but they don't seem to be that much better than chiropractors.
