In order for meat to be considered healthy, it could only be consumed in relatively strict moderation, though you'd have to eat a heck of a lot of fruit for it to kill you (I expect the lethal dose is an estimation). Even two servings of meat a week measurably increases risk of mortality and increases risk of heart disease and stroke. Eat what you like, but don't kid yourself. What the meat lobby says is generally a lie.
I think the point was that the boundaries are often not symmetric. I have also met many more men who are perfectly happy with polyamory -- as long as they are the only man. If people want asymmetric boundaries that is of course always their business. And plenty of those men were hippies too, to be sure.

But I've also seen a lot of guys go seriously crazy in the eyes at the concept of another naked man in the room even if there are ten ladies.

Maybe there's an explanation for that other than homophobia, and I won't judge anyone for it as long as they're transparent and honest with their partners, but it's clearly unbalanced. We can try to blame biology or something but I don't see why it matters what the source is if it's harmful today.
When I saw that the method involved questionnaires I took this with a kilo of salt. Considering that people forget what they had or generalize pretty badly this kind of method is only as good as the individuals and what they report accurately.

I'm going to say that it probably is... the question is whether anyone is motivated enough to do it. Microsoft's culture of back-compat is not only for third-party applications, so it shouldn't be surprising that e.g. various apps from an older version of Windows would run on a newer one. I use the XP calc.exe on Win10, for example.

The somewhat-underground far-East communities have made weird chimeras of different Windows versions. I've seen Windows XP explorer.exe running on a Windows 7 kernel. No idea how stable or usable that is, but it's been done before.
It’s generally decreased over time though.
> In the US, very few full time professionals work under contract. In fact, companies go out of their way to assert that there is no contractual relationship (the "employment at will" principle).

Americans keep saying this means "no contract", but I don't get it. You probably have some weird American-only meaning attached to the word "contract" that doesn't apply to the rest of the world, in English as well as other languages. To the rest of us, "a contract" means a formal (usually written) agreement to exchange goods or services for payment. I find it utterly hard to believe that any full-time professional, even in America, is employed without having any piece of paper signed by their employer -- and they a copy signed by him -- that states basically "John Doe and Corporation X agree that John shall work full-time for X, and receive a salary of $Y per month".

If you do, that's a contract. If you don't, how do you know how much of a salary you're going to get at the end of the month? How does HR / Accounts know how much to pay you?

Of fucking course you have a contract. It's just that the terms for termination of that contract, whether specified within it or implicit because of "at will" legislation, are much more abrupt than most everywhere else. That doesn't make it not a contract.

> They do not count their hours, and are in fact not allowed to do so.

Like, if the company wants you to work 272 hours per week (hint: 24 × 7 = 168), you can't say you won't? Or is it the company that can't say anything if you show up three hours a month? Of course they count their hours, at least roughly. Everyone does.

Not that this has anything to do with whether something is a contract or not.

I have once spent four sprints shipping and then unshipping a minor feature because no one on the dev team explained an implicit invariant in the object model, despite repeated questioning. The unit tests ran fine and people rubber-stamped each successive revision without hesitation. Then the change would land on our scary haunted staging instance, and the release manager would come knocking at my desk.

Gatekeeping is totally a thing.

It probably means the team lead or manager doesn’t care too much whether your part is done or not, which means it’s probably not critical work. Or they don’t understand what you’re doing as well.

I can say that Bay Area / SV serious startups, there is no real slack at all, a well run team would be actively gathering requirements and building product at 50, 60+ hrs a week. Big Co., you can def get away with lot more, see google’s: rest & vest subculture.

I wasn't talking about hardware GPU scheduling, that allows sending compute work to GPU using GPU features. I was talking the kind of scheduling, that prioritizes one kind of work over another as in CPU scheduling (e.g. process priorities). Linux does not do that for GPU AFAIK.
Both yes and no. It will certainly change the process, but to shut out distraction, what needs to be done is to treat it like a job, a difficult job, and organize life and work around it. A device with an e-ink display doesn't change anything about it.

I'm not saying writing tools don't matter to writing at all, but it seems to me that they don't solve the problem of distraction. It's not that hard to turn off the WIFI, or leave your phone in a different room. The Microsoft Office toolbars, however ugly, isn't stopping you from churning out words. Books don't write themselves simply because an e-ink screen replaces a LED monitor.

The most productive writer I personally know, writes on his work laptop running MS word. The machine has as much bloats and distractions as you can imagine, but he writes two chapters of light novels a day on average, before and after going to work. There is no special equipment, no internet-proof basement, no mental gymnastics. For him, writing is work, so he allocates some dedicated time to do it.

Writing (well) is such a difficult task, that simply, not everybody is going to be a productive writer. Just like not everyone is going to be a good mathematician, regardless of how little distraction surrounds them.

Context matters.

What is the cost of a bug getting into the wild vs what is the cost of keeping the bug rate very low?

If you're NASA or a high frequency trading company I'm guessing the cost of bugs can be very high. If you're making internal tools to automate admin tasks the cost of bugs is often very low.
This you forgetting how much free time and few distractions kids had before Internet.

There are non-trivial documentation requirements for RealID though. I had to go back in a second time. If someone has no need to fly it’s probably reasonable to offer them a lower bar.
As one who made this transition decades ago, first be sure you really want to do it not just because you want a promotion and more money. Once you make the move, your career will never be the same. In my experience, stepping back from management faced more resistance than moving into management ever did. And it’s a psychological adjustment going from a successful, well regarded IC to the new manager overnight. It’s suddenly no longer about what you know and can do (or have done). It’s about what your team knows and can do. Overtime, you will become less fluent in the details of a specific technology and have to rely upon the team to fill in the blanks. It’s trickier than perhaps it sounds. And for most us who made these moves, it took a while to reach a comparable level of job satisfaction. And some never do.

I'm not sure what distinction you're drawing. Continuous integration is entirely synonymous with trunk-based development.

A family friend who was in the State Police used to send out a secret message (probably something like a special sign off tag) that his wife, who was listening on a police scanner, would hear and know that her hubby was safe, coming home, and to get dinner ready. Great way to keep the couple connected during worrying times, sort of like video chats during military deployments.

I don’t know whether police nowadays carry around cell phones they can use that deprecate their scheme.

Just because this is Ramsey theory (which is often associated with really enormous numbers), I suspect the values of r involved here are way too big to be useful in chemistry or physics.

Moving to SF (proper) for left wing ideals right now is a bit like being a staunch communist and moving to China. It's so over, thanks to the dollar (either respects, probably). Most of the bohemian, grass roots, critical thinking types have mostly moved on (or worse, joined the system). It's impossible to sustain a family there unless you've managed to get either rent control (years and years ago) or somehow won the tech and/or prop13 blood lotto. SF is ran by liberal-in-name-only (LINOs?) who block all housing then tax and ban plastics, then proceed to fly all over the globe, producing more co2 in a day than most people on the planet do in a year [1]. God help anyone rational left there tjat visits any other part of the country, even the south bay (San Jose) and see how other/families raise their children and how much more reasonable it is - i.e not having to constantly avoid subjecting yourself/family to the worst of the worst city garbage every day (the mental health crises and drug addiction epidemic, as well as crime are so heavily concentrated there its impossible to avoid). Most reasonable people opt-out and buy a huge house elsewhere.

It's got a ton of awesome history and venues, for sure, but its a place that exemplifies the problems of late stage capitalism. Foggy cold weather isn't that great either. My advice to anyone moving there chasing the money is to make as much as you can in 4 years and move out (if that's even a thing anymore going forward, with remote work being the norm).

/lived in Bay Area for 9 years, saw a friend get stabbed in the tenderloin, had someone throw a knife 9" across the street towards me when my wife and I were walking and watched it bounce in front of us, had someone throw a chunk of concrete at my windshild driving near union square.

Meat generally means red meat, as opposed to pork, poultry or fish. Seafood was probably once very healthy, but now the oceans are continuously poisoned, mercury content is an issue. If you eat a lot of fish, choose farmed fish. I used to love shellfish until I was poisoned by broiled lobster, then again a year later with another broiled lobster. Also, there were incidents with both a piece of fish from Applebees (bad judgement), and a fried catfish prepared by a girlfriend's mother. There's no sick like that. In all four instances, I don't think I could keep anything down for two weeks afterwards. If you caught a fish today, I'd probably eat it, but I won't touch a fish more than a half-hour's drive from the ocean.

> In order to open a TreasuryDirect account, an individual or entity account manager must have a valid Social Security Number (SSN), be 18 years of age or over, and be legally competent. An entity must have a valid SSN or Employer Identification Number (EIN). The account owner must also have a United States address of record and have an account at a U.S. depository financial institution that will accept debits and credits using the Automated Clearing House method of payment.

AFAIUI, getting an SSN from abroad as a non-US citizen/resident is not realistic.

I just finished a rewatch of Star Trek the original series and wow professionals working together to do their job is... So not what that show is. I don't like Discovery but TOS is absolutely people acting emotional and unprofessionally in basically every single episode. It is hilarious.

Watching TOS in full was very eye opening to how much current cultural memory of what that show was doesn't match what was actually in the show.
There wasn't just one. Some defrag tools from the days of DOS would actually let you pick. A commonly used one was to try to place the contents of the same directory adjacent to each other on the disk surface, to minimize latency.

I can't remember which it is, but either the center or the outside edge of a disk read faster, so another common trick was to place all the files necessary to boot the system there, to reduce boot times.
From my experience, people who spent a lot of time working tend to say they haven't. While people who didn't spend much time, tend to say otherwise.

I remember the sense of deep satisfaction and virtue when I defragged my hard drive. Then I learned FreeBSD. I kept trying to figure out how to defrag the partitions. When I learned that the filesystem took care of it continuously my mind was blown.
I hadn't thought about defragging a hard drive in years. What happens on mobile OS? Do they run routine defrag processes in the background?
According to the video, it looks like this specific problem has been like this for a while and Tesla does not care.

Reliability and QA is the point everyone has been mocking them about for years now, yet the designs remain unchanged.
"Once something is in a working state there is pressure to move on to the next thing. Fighting for quality before it is in a publishable state is a devs best defence against later rework."

This insight is true and depressing. It's not the best way to focus effort. You fight for quality on a new feature that may or may not get use. By the time you know how well received the feature is it's too late to allocate resources to improving the code quality. So if you don't get it right the first time, this code might cost you months of wasted time when trying to make changes to it in the future.

It would be far better if time was allocated to going back and figuring out what parts of the code are causing problems and going back and fixing them. Spending time removing the features that don't get used.

How do you get the political buy in to do this? I have no idea.
Plunder, plain and simple.
OOMKiller has a bunch of issues. Its heuristics don't apply well across the wide range of workloads Linux provides (mobile/android? webserver? Database server? build server? desktop client? Gaming machine?), each of which would require its own tuning. (more background at https://lwn.net/Kernel/Index/#Memory_management-Out-of-memor...)

I designed and made a Nintendo Switch ornament with a 1.14” 240x135 LCD display [0] that plays videos (actually animated gifs) off an SD card. It’s based on a small ESP32 module (Lilygo T-Micro32 Plus [1], which is pretty much just a ESP32-PICO-V3-02 SiP + chip antenna as a hobbyist-friendly module), and programmed with the Arduino framework and PlatformIO. I'm using the bitbank2/AnimatedGIF and Bodmer/TFT_eSPI Arduino libraries for the video playback [2].

I made the body of the Switch in Fusion 360 and had it SLA printed online (was $1 for the body, $1 for 25 thumbsticks, and about $16 for fast shipping), then hand-painted it. PCB was designed in KiCad and I ordered it along with a solder stencil so I could reflow solder it on a hotplate.

Since the ESP32 has wifi (credentials configured via a json file on the SD card), it syncs time using NTP so it can automatically play different gifs on Christmas day! I also set it up so firmware updates can be done either by dropping a firmware.bin file on the SD card, or using ArduinoOTA over wifi (in the video you'll see me using a programming jig, but that got tedious after a while, so the OTA is much nicer whenever I don't need to look at the serial log).

Let me know if you have any questions!
