With $600k, you could just not touch it and then be free to do whatever job you want to just cover living expenses with no thought of retirement I'm pretty sure. "Coast FIRE" achieved.

EDIT: By "not touch it" I meant invest it in something safe and easy and then you'll have full retirement money in 30y
Try this: when you feel (1) or (2), turn to (3) to rationalize why you shouldn’t. The trick is keeping (3) at bay during all other times by identifying the things that you do enjoy in life - however insignificant they may seem - and take steps to do them more frequently and with greater depth.

Please reach out to me (same username on Twitter) if (3) ever gets out of hand or if you have any questions about my suggested steps.

Have a great day and I hope others chime in with some actionable steps, too.
You certainly might use them to write a facade which made life easier for consumers of the math pkg and accept floats,ints or uints even if behind the scenes it splits into different implementations.
Can you live on 55k a year? If so, American REITs yield 9% a year. For for example: $NRZ, $OHI, $DX.
So the idea that developing a good desktop makes money is dead? If so, since no further improvements in windows will help MS make loads more money, they may as well set it on fire (i'm just speculating where the current trend might lead. I don't think MS execs have yet made a full decision on commiting arson, but they aren't against the idea), since it can burn for a long time and keep them warm throughout.

I think a good way to frame the role of a SW developer is you are in a sense a manager of a new "team".

But instead of developing new hire training material and recruiting/managing people to do the new task, you're developing/training/creating/deploying software programs/scripts/bots to do what needs to get done for the organization.

While infinitely easier than dealing with HR problems that humans bring along, your team of programs/bots still needs some manager.

And just like a traditional manager, if you set up your "team of bots" just right and handle all the corner cases in the training manuals, a good managers job will actually ideally not be that hard day to day - particularly since the meatspace problems have been abstracted away.
I know many talented but not exceptional Engineers that made their way to middle management and above at a FAANG company and are now happy to work a couple of hours a day while collecting close to million dollar salaries. I also know equally talented people that worked their tails off for decades in startups that did not work and that now have trouble supporting their families. So, it depends, but for sure if you optimize for work-life balance software development in the US is likely the best gig in the world.

I'm shocked how many support or at least 'it is ok' comments here, so I won't go to tell my opinion about OP or if this is acceptable in general. Instead just my personal answer.
Yeah, I lie about how much time I put to work, when I for some reason decided to put some of my personal time to solve some problem, or improve something, or simply experimenting. I'm not proud of it, but it happens.

Anyway, I never was in a team where such behaviour OP described was acceptable. Maybe it is cultural thing (I'm not from the western country), or just social (you try to be closer to people with the same values).
Yes, you probably won't get fired immediately. But it is all clear and visible if person work so little. Visible to teamlead and other team members. You won't get promotion or bonus. And eventually your direct manager will try to remove you from the team. Even i firing is not so simple, there are usually ways to rotate him to different team. And if person gets the same 'recognition' in the next team, his case usually goes to HR and they would find they to 'let him leave'.
I still agree that it is ok to work just as much as you are required for your pay. But if developer simply wants to work as little as possible, he eventually is asked to go work somewhere else. Because it is simply more enjoyable to work with developers who give a shit.
I'm hoping someone will develop an unofficial tool to unlock wslg on Windows 10.
I read that one (and still do) as:

Before you know how you do something it just looks like what it is on the surface. Might even look easy for most things.

Software development is easy right? Bunch of for loops and ifs to tell a computer what to do!

Then you start learning. What do you mean 0s and 1s? That are actually different voltages somewhere on a tiny piece of silicon and metals? Assembler? Compilers? Machine code? A gate? What's an Adder? What's a program counter and what does that have to do with that German dude? (von Neumann ;))

You finally master all this and it becomes second nature or you figure out where you can 'ignore' and still be productive (I remember how I learned how multiplication is actually done on a simple computer and all that but I no longer actively need to know in my day to day work). This just an example but this applies on many many levels and one reason I see all the time for why people get stuck on a problem is because they can't ignore or figure out what to ignore. A very simple one is the ability to just read a stack trace. They simply get lost in the parts I instinctively fly over and don't even fully recognize to find the important part.

And that's when it's just a punch again. It's second nature. Don't even need to actively think. Your subconscious is doing it for you.
> They rewrite the ZK protocol using multi-paxos within CH itself.

It appears to be implemented with Raft, not Paxos (per https://presentations.clickhouse.com/meetup54/keeper.pdf, slide 21).

That's what I do personally. I'm a student, so I'm not working consistently full time but there are definitely days where I'll work 9+ hours and days where I work 3 or not at all. Usually averages out to about what my hours goal for the week is, it just depends entirely on how I'm feeling on a given day (and I'm hourly, so I track all this).
It scares away people who see 'GPL' and refuse to read further, perhaps. Not only is it dual licensed, but both licenses (EPL and LGPL) freely allow linking with proprietary software.
For me, it's a setting, and yes, I tried it and it works: https://imgur.com/a/QSxE92W

Similar job here. Except I’ve been a consultant billing through to our clients mostly by the hour. I’ve run a key logger on myself for over a decade. While my start and stop times vary wildly I spend between 30 and 45 hours doing something on my computer during a nominal 5 day work week. The app I use for this (RescueTime) classifies the sites and applications I use according to my judgement on if they are productive or distracting. It ranks me consistently in the top quartile of its user base on productivity (type of activity) and slightly above average on hours worked for software dev users.

Despite my addiction to HN meaning that it’s 3 key strokes max from anywhere. And that the logs say I visit this site and others dozens of times a day, the actual time spent is maybe 20 minutes. Email and slack is 1-2 hours. Meetings/discussion collaboration 1-2. Coding/design/specs 3-4. This has been roughly the same for years. Some days I get 8hrs of coding in and feel like I actually did work that day. Most days I feel like I only worked a couple of hours productively and the interruptions and lack of focus feel real but the key logger shows I was indeed working away I just don’t remember it that way.
I believe technically both UDP and TCP are implemented on top of IP.

But UDP is basically IP + a port number and a checksum, while TCP is IP + a port number and includes a checksum as well, and a bunch of other stuff. So while TCP isn’t exactly implemented on top of UDP, it’s pretty close.

Something very much like TCP can be implemented on top of UDP, with whatever improvements or differences you might want to implement. (It’s just that both sides need to understand the custom TCP-like protocol.)
These have been going on for a while. I have been noticing these for at least a year, and I have seen a similar format with Bill Gates and Musk. I guess it's a whack-a-mole problem, and MicroStrategy has been attempting to report them as they can.

Sadly in my experience it is common for F# given its finance background at least historically, particularly in London/Europe. There is a culture of not showing your cards in these environments having worked in a few of them, and quietly being a success. Its an "arms race" with your competitors after all - only people in the industry jumping between companies have an idea what their other competitors are using often sometimes with "non-compete" clauses. Meetup's/conferences/articles showing your work are often explicitly banned or at best not encouraged by the companies for commercial reasons.

Funny you say that because for me that's the one use case I have for generics.

Your experience rings true to me. It's one of my biggest frustrations with ML at the moment. There are so many ideas I'd like to try, but I know only a small fraction of them will work, and discovering which of the ideas fail and which succeed is a herculean task. Your conclusion that empathy helps may also be true, but I have a different take.

It currently takes way too much time to explore ML-based ideas. I compare this to the early days of computer programming where programmers needed to manually fill out punch cards, and doing anything took days of full time work. There is lots of room for improvement along every step of the ML pipeline, from data wrangling, model choice, training, and evaluation. Good ML tooling will likely bring huge gains in the field.
You never know what will be useful to the future. To give an example, the field of papyrology is largely built around trying to construct a view of the past using scraps of texts excavated from ancient dumps.

Please also note that there are two concepts here that can easily get mixed. For clarification:

* Zookeeper's wire protocol is emulated in CH-Keeper. Nice! So all clients are compatible, etc.

* Zookeeper uses a distributed consensus algorithm called ZAB. Which is not Paxos --but many believes so. CH-Keeper uses Raft, and it can do so as the consensus algorithm is not exposed directly: it is an internal property hidden behind the API and obviously the wire protocol.
I'd recommend trying daily meditation for a couple weeks, see if it helps you. Otherwise check in with your doctor, you could have anxiety. It's normal to have these feelings every now and then. It's not normal to feel like that all the time.

The VSCode team is busy releasing proprietary extensions which won't run on open source builds of Code, but only proprietary builds packaged by Microsoft.
I worked for a health insurance claims benefit management software company whose flagship was written in a language called DB/C (random bonus, the two co-owners of the company felt that two spaces for a tab stop was too small, four too large, so had standardized on a three space tab).

DB/C (or Databus) is a COBOL-esque language (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_Language_for_Busin...).

Over time, TCP/IP, sockets support had been bolted on, with varying degrees of rigidity to spec (and a whole ton of unimplemented "we don't need THAT" stuff).

But the prize for eyebleeding was the co-owner who had a megalomaniac (he could be heard, and I quote word for word, saying things like "People are idiots, I don't know why they would write [software X] that way. I can do it in a weekend" (and he would do "it", too, in 60 hour long benders. But not well. And with a whole bunch of arbitrary bullshit that you'd expect), masochistic, NIH obsession.

He wrote a fully functional XSL parser and interpreter. In a COBOL-esque language.

And while functional, oh boy, you probably saw few things uglier in your life.

The problem with modular monoliths is the relative difficulty of managing dependencies in the code. It’s easy to hack the modular interfaces or expose internals, which can make it hard to maintain and painful to pull out into another service down the road.

“But I would never hack an interface like that!” you say. Oh, you sweet summer child.

I don't know about other countries, but here in Australia post offices are open Monday-Friday, 9-5 (with the exception of some smaller ones being open until noon on a Saturday) and there are massive queues around lunchtime.

And that's assuming there is a post office near you (or you have a car), and you're able-bodied enough to get there independently.

I can say from personal experience that I have point blank refused to pick up Signature on Delivery (ie, the sender instructed the postal service not to leave the package on the porch) items from the post office in the past and demanded a refund from the seller. I'd do the same if I was asked to go down there to verify an account for Uber or whatever.
For anyone interested in non-AI animated children's drawings and wanting a particularly strange addition to your day, I might also point some attention to Sünnipäev, a very bizarre and surprisingly meaningful (after enough watches) 1994 Estonian cartoon by Janno Põldma based on a similar concept (no Estonian needed!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6EK89x00GI

2018 was the year the SEC brought the hammer down on ICOs. First, they had a few of the outright scams prosecuted, like the one that supposedly owned gold and real estate but didn't own either. Then they just sent out letters to every ICO they could find: "Please explain why your investment offering to the US public doesn't need to be registered as a public offering?" Suddenly a lot of ICOs were cancelled.
I believe you were being facetious, but just in case...

While I have my issues with Jacobin, the article isn't about "RPG culture", it's specifically about Dungeons & Dragons. You say their conclusion "that capitalism has killed the artistic and creative part of D&D" is false, yet then go on to say

> That's probably largely true of 5th Edition […] and the D&D Beyond software is clearly a first attempt at an Apple App Store style walled garden from which to extract rent forever and ever.

…which is absolutely supporting their argument, isn't it? "Hasbro's steadily killing the artistic and creative part of D&D" and "there is an insane amount of creativity in RPG culture" aren't mutually exclusive! One doesn't disprove the other. They can both be true.
Yes, exactly - it's just an explanation for why it seems like there is a big pool of not-yet-married men chasing a small pool of not-yet-married women on dating apps. It's literally what's happening: as long as older men prefer to date women younger than themselves, and younger women prefer to date men a bit older than themselves, and there is a hard divide between the college and post-college dating worlds, single men will outnumber single women, and the dating app experience will be vastly different between genders.

> 2/3 the market cap of Ethereum alone

The idea of equating <insert anything> to crypto market cap needs to stop. $265B in actual real dollars is exchanged between two parties every year for gambling. That means a business pays a salary to someone and then that someone gives that money to someone else.

Crypto market caps doesn't necessarily mean that someones earned currency is transferred to another one and it doesn't representing an annual value. In other words `income != net worth` or `revenue != asset value`

not surprising because eating properly plant-based can be challenging, especially in old age which is less forgiving. Eating animals is a decent hedge. But my money is where my mouth is that my proper plant-based diet will win out.
Communist countries have a much worse track record on that.
I feel there's more to the dynamic language world that's not clearly explained by the lack of types. I have used both Python and Elixir for production apps, and I get an order of magnitude more type errors with Python than Elixir, for some reason.

IMO it's a disservice to compare Elixir's typing to languages like Python, and we need a new category to distinguish the two.
I thought the name was familiar: I use it with TensorFlow. Nice project!
FTA: plant protein is also associated with lower mortality. So... more protein is just better?

I wonder if strength is part of the explanation. We know that there's a strong association between strength and mortality, so maybe a higher protein diet just helps maintain more strength as people age. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18595904/
>SEC’s mission statement

Okay, but that's not how laws work. You can't go to the judge and say, "your honor, this person violated the SEC's mission statement and is therefore a criminal!". The mission statement might be correlated with what the law says (it might also not be, see: "to serve and protect"), but the ultimate source of truth is statues/precedence. Given that your claims contradicts what two well credentials individuals[1] claim, it seems prudent to require more evidence than just "that's SEC's mission statement". A link to the exact section of the relevant statue, or a relevant appellate court decision would do.

[1] matt levine was "a mergers and acquisitions lawyer at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, and a clerk for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit", and the person interviewed for the NPR story was "a defense attorney" and "now a fellow at Yale Law School".
