We had a very similar development. In my case it was Mandrake, RedHat, Gentoo, openSUSE and now I oscillate between Fedora and Ubuntu.

It is my experience that while Fedora generally works really well, if something goes wrong, it is seriously wrong and cannot be fixed until the great devs decide to do so. In my case, it was a recurring X11 glitch that returned more than once in several Fedora releases. (I reported it to their bug tracking system.)

On the other hand, Ubuntu has such a massive user base that any problem I encountered already seemed to have a working workaround.
All these points are doing the stupid thing of presuming a clear controllable definition of capitalism; when in reality, no "ism" is a controllable unified entity.

People will always and forever make mutually beneficial trades, probably with money.

Now, will people also always have the opportunity to freely invest sums of money in imaginary chopped up pieces of a corporation without fear of financial liability should they cause a great deal of harm? Maybe not, because Gamestop is teaching us a lot of things.

Regardless of what happens, the dumb thing is presuming that these two things are both the exact same thing called "capitalism."
That's not what we've learned.

I am speaking from experience, and no, I am not superhuman. As a PM it is quite common to understand customers (meaning, customer use cases) better than they understand them themselves. The domain is complex, and customers try to find solutions just like the PM. But, as a PM you have the benefit of talking to many customers so you see common patterns and can often see the ‘problem behind the problem’.

I did not say that a PM will understand any customer issue, and yes sometimes new research is needed, which is expensive and time consuming.

I do not see the link to the true Scotsman argument as in my view my description of a PM is not mythical or heroic but quite common at least in my area.
Sue me, I have whatever concept of efficiency that means that people eating and having housing and having a habitable environment is more important than NFT's or space tourism or car collections. That's my ladder of importance. So weasely!
Are there any car companies that make every single part and diagnostic tool available to third parties? If so, which ones?

Ford, Toyota, GM, etc. Pretty much all non-luxury brands make all part listings and parts available (either directly, or through a designated parts supplier). External companies actually make a lot of the parts for these automakers and you can buy directly from those suppliers if you know the part number, and aftermarket alternatives are available for almost every OEM part. It is possible to rebuild most Ford, Toyota, and GM vehicles with parts acquired through purchase.

Some automakers make diagnostic tools available to anyone, but most limit the availability to certified mechanics. However, anyone can attempt to get certification.

This is also ignoring how the security system allegedly works in the US.

It's based on contracts. Before the government will give you classified information, you agree not to share it except under particular terms.

It's why the New York Times can publish the Pentagon Papers even though they're classified. They never agreed not to.

But now people want to pretend there is some separate "national security" that overrides the First Amendment in cases of excessive government embarrassment even for people who never agreed not to publish whatever they want to.

Somebody tell me where in the constitution it says "Congress shall pass no law abridging the freedom of speech except when the government wants to keep something a secret."
Yet equanimity alone will not bring contentment either.
This essay looks amazing. Can you please reference it?
Really interesting read. It's cool that a company like Crucible was willing to consider a proposal for something as expensive, time consuming, and potentially fruitless as a new steel from essentially someone off the street.

> Even Leetcode's most "easy" problem just seems utterly ridiculous to me

Generalized slightly from the specifics, “return the indexes of the elements, one from each list, constituting a tuple satisfying a predicate” is not an utterly ridiculous task unrepresentative of things real programmers need to understand how to do. Yeah, usually it won't be lists of integers or the sun operation returning a particular value as the predicate, but none of that is particularly significant to the task.

There’s a lot of nuance missing from this. Schools pose minimal risk when appropriate measures are taken. These measures are frequently not taken, a friend of mine just caught Covid from the school she works at last week. Masking and distancing are semi enforced, but the biggest issue is kids are being sent to school sick repeatedly. Parents have relied on and feel entitled to schools as free childcare, sometimes without much choice if their jobs are at risk. Framing the school closings as an overreaction to a minimal risk is incorrect and dangerous.

I’m sure it’s out there, but I had a similar idea to make an audio device plugin like soundflower to pipe audio through and automatically mute when it detects an ad. We really need an OpenWrt-like project for smart TVs so that you could run something like what you created to mute the sound and display art during ad breaks.
The OS X Finder was unusable until 10.3, and ISTR there were still other missing things from OS 9 that 10.4 finally rectified, but I don’t recall what exactly. I do recall recommending against relatives and friends installing OS X until 10.4 finally filled in the gaps.

edit: you can argue with “unusable,” but I never saw anyone use the NeXT Workspace or the OS X Finder pre-10.3. Everyone on those systems used the command line to get around.
Re: business expense deductions, I think businesses already handle those.

Re: taxing private individuals' micro attention "income", could be handled like "use" tax. I think my state allows me to list purchases I made online and shipped into my state so I can pay sales tax for them, or to take the "I don't know, just charge me the average amount" option. Maybe YouTube needs to send me a W2 each March which itemizes all the "work" I've done for them?

Re: fair market value, doesn't seem hard when there is an option to pay dollars for a service instead of watching ads, you just found out how much your attention is worth. Attention FMV could be standardized by the IRS like milage reimbursement (58.5 cents/mile in 2022) regardless of the exact cost of /your/ miles.

Edit: I'm not suggesting this would be good or easy but it would acknowledge that an entire industry is dodging taxes and degrading our quality of life. Also, were I king, this tax would be quite high (to reflect the harm to society) and would be the responsibility of the advertiser.
Why would they been seen as a "eternal beginner" by anyone? Learning a language for 1-2 years and then working with it, while having general programming language for 10-20 years would come anywhere near "beginner" for me and many I know. Once you've picked up one and mastered one object-oriented language, most of them mostly look the same, and same goes for the other paradigms. A lot of knowledge transfer between languages, so if they see you as a beginner after 20+ years of experience, their loss.
From a more paranoid perspective:

I'm curious about the possible abuse scenarios given the ubiquitous use of PCR-testing for nearly two years, now.

If I'm informed correctly for a viable sample for NGS you need like 2mL saliva (which sounds little but it really takes some time: >1 min) not those trace amounts which gets usually collected by the swabs?

Here - I'll do the work for them, since they don't seem to really be interested in a real discussion:

The first quoted Doctor is Patricia Kuhl - The quote "What we’ve discovered is that little babies, under a year old, do not learn from a machine"

Yet when you look through her recent published work - I see an entirely different and more nuanced view:

Ex - http://ilabs.uw.edu/sites/default/files/2019_kuhl_lim_etal_d...

A recently published book advocating for digital learning. Including the use of many screen based digital tools.

Or http://ilabs.uw.edu/sites/default/files/2018_lytle_garcia-si...

Which states that infants don't learn well from a screen alone, but do much better when another peer is present - DRASTICALLY different than "infants don't learn from screens".

---

So my take from this: Babies don't learn communication/language skills well from screens in isolation. This is insightful and helpful, but an entirely different message than what's conveyed in the published piece.

It seems the screen is fine - Just the screen by itself is not.
I implemented this in Python and it seems to work really well! Thanks for this link!

Pretty cool that it can also work for e.g. textual data in principle, as someone mentioned.
I think enough people have Xboxes (one/X/whatever) at this point, an entire secondhand untracked market, and Oculus is still fresh enough, that this feels like a silly headline to even discuss. Team it up with supply chain and availability issues. I got an Oculus this year. I have multiple Xboxes already and zero need to upgrade to another iteration of them right now.
Have been writing code since the mid '70s. But, that has been mostly with startups. YMMV

Two years ago, I ran out of money. So, I started interviewing. One example was interviewing for the Apple Watch team. My experience included the design and code lead of an Apple Watch product, which was featured by Apple. But, I failed the Coderpad. Why? The interviewer wanted me to use a new Swift generic syntax, which I had never seen before. With an unfamiliar code editor. In under 10 minutes. Did it matter that I had an Apple Watch product, which he could download from the AppStore and ran super fast on a Series 0? Nope. Did it matter that he could download a 29K Swift based functional ontology that I wrote? Nope.

The point is that there are two skills: writing code and getting past the interview. The latter is often conducted by a 20-something, just out of college. So, there is more emphasis on tacit knowledge of the tools and techniques. It feels more like passing a finals exam.

A few years ago my CEO hired Gayle Laakman to prep the team for an acquisition by a FAANG. I loved the puzzles and read her book [1] cover to cover. But, I hated the premise of avoiding "false positives". A famous false negative is Max Howell [2] (who went on to write Apple's Swift Package Manager)

So, how did I get a gig? I kept trying. Learned new frameworks. Focused on jobs interviews which had a take home. During the on-site, I insisted on using my own laptop. An often overlooked factor in achieving a coding flow-state is muscle memory.

I've been told that some companies are shifting from whiteboard to take-home -- particularly during covid. Post covid, if the option is available to you, try moving to the Bay Area or Austin and attend every single hackathon that looks interesting. If you don't want to leave HI, maybe contribute to an open source project in some way.

Or perhaps, start a company. Maybe there's an opportunity in refactoring Aerospace code? I dunno. Now, I'm guessing ...

> I mean it seems that it yields the amount of Dollars that all stock buyers have been willing to either pay or hold at.

That's not how trading markets and stock prices work. The stock price is the price that the last trade occurred at (and that is usually -- but not always, especially not if the market is illiquid) between the highest buy price on currently in the market and the lowest sell price in the market.

It is explicitly not the price all stock buyers have been willing to pay --only the last one.
Or it might just be some nerdy tech that a very small percent of people in the tech community feel the need to try and convince others that it is the future. It is not.

And no, seeing clearly is not a value. It is a necessity.
I was in a similar situation in 2007 having been out of programming work since the dot com bust in 2001. I got hired at a small startup where I happened to do well on the interview - I aced a couple of brain teaser like interview questions and just happened to be a cultural and personal good fit with the interviewers. I then got to choose the front end framework for the company and chose ExtJS and that keyword on my resume got me headhunted into a major tech firm 6 months later. So pick some current hot tech stack/framework and get some experience with it even if you have to work on open source or pro bono for a bit.

I think the Achilles' heel of OSS are actually the crucial-but-seriously-understaffed libraries, with bus factor [0] of 1 or 2.

For example, openssl [1] is a crucial piece of code with very few full-time developers, especially if you consider the total installed base thereof.

There is, of course, a XKCD for this problem as well: [2]

Also to add, when your income starts getting into tech amounts, it's actually MORE tax efficient to not be married than to be married unless your spouse does not work. Also there is nothing preventing you getting rings, having a wedding and having a marriage relationship.
That's the point, it is basically a SPA but without all of the complexity and (over)engineering of using a modern JS frontend stack.
BG2 system was also turn based, it just remembered previous command you issued and repeated it, and didn’t pause automatically after every turn.
The RP2040 is $1 in quantities of 10, so it’s really the perfect choice for this application. Personally, I only consider other microcontrollers if I must have some feature the RP2040 is missing (usually hardware floating point).
I never considered the diode duty cycles. If nameplate was 120-240VAC (my TV says 120 but the p/s PCB inside says 100-240…) I’d like to think each would have the overhead to handle under 100VDC, but maybe I’m underestimating the impact of higher current. Edit: you’re right that the “hot” ones will run twice as hot with their 0.6V or whatever drop.

All I could think about was the (potential) improvements on capacitor lifespan since they won’t have to smoothen, but wasn’t sure if their electrolyte could still heat/dry if it was actually the connection to power that makes them hot.

Thinking further, an internal fuse might blow with the (expectedly) larger current draw at 48V.

And yeah on input wiring, you’re pulling more current at 48V.
Nobody is advocating for torture. The only "torturing" these people are being subjected to is self-inflicted.

They saw Massachusetts residents as sub-human during the early surge. They cackled with glee that the "libtards" were dying. Their golden boy and his family purposefully diverted shipments of PPE and medical supplies away from northeast states that were hardest hit.

Where was your concern then, as my fellow residents died from a disease we had little understanding of and no vaccine for?

Shoe's on the other foot, we now have a vacccine which means these hospitalizations are 99% preventable, and suddenly we're expected to have compassion? Fuck that noise.

Try concerning yourself slightly more about the physical and mental welfare of people providing medical services....than the patients who are resisting treatment to the point of physical assault. Who were begged, cajoled, and even bribed to take a fucking vaccine but said no. People who saw their god-emperor get a booster shot and still couldn't handle reality.
how about 2 things she gets wrong
Masters, extra hours, working above my level, taking on extra responsibility, volunteering for initiatives at work, working on personal projects in my own time, multiple certs, business acumen certs, etc.

The number of opportunities to make significantly more money are exceedingly rare. Especially with family constraints like not being allowed to move or no longer able to work extensive unplanned extra hours due to childcare responsibilities.

In that case, what’s the difference between a free market and a compulsory market?

If market participants must only participate by choosing to spend or to not spend, they are beholden to the economic system, and are unfree actors in the status quo “free market” economic situation.

And yet by exercising political freedom to make themselves (more) free, these unfree participants in the “free market” somehow make the market unfree, and instead of viewing that as a benefit to market participants, you view it as a loss of freedom in the status quo “free market” to the detriment of the unfree participants.

I’m not trying to put words in your mouth, just trying to understand where you’re coming from.
It is nothing to do with Apple.

That is a distraction.

It is all about advertising.
Most of them actually sold off or spun off their parts departments into separate companies, and then were really pissed off when what used to be a dedicated in-house proprietary system started serving parts for other makers.

It’s like rockets. The cheapest bidder gets the contract, and they make the worst quality stuff that they possibly can, just enough to get them across the line.

If you want actual good quality parts, you have to go elsewhere.

The problem is that the industry works very hard to hide where that “elsewhere” might be, so that you can’t find them and work your way around the system.
If you're looking in the same area/domain, what you're saying is almost certainly true.

If you're looking across the business as a whole, it seems likely that there is a lot of this kind of work lying around because there is not much incentive for people to tackle it as described in this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29691847.
Yes!! It's hard enough to maintain attention as it is. Last thing we need is entitled corporations stealing it every chance they get for the sake of profit.
Interesting they've said that, but this is Facebook - I'll believe it when I see it, and even then be astonished if they make it possible to port purchases or de-Facebook an account created during the period when that has been mandatory.
Seemingly, assuming there are 10 + 6 combinations (1-10, seconds/minutes/hours/days/weeks/months), it'd probably be less than 250 words and you could use Fiverr to get some native French speaker who knows English (and applies a heavy accent) to do it for you, for less than 10 EUR
Alpine is a lot closer to jquery than htmx IMHO--I think of it in a very similar way as what people used to use jquery for all the time (adding event handlers and logic to DOM elements).
That’s actually a good idea.
I just read that story based on your recommendation - thank you! I might be just a tiny bit better as a person now than I was before reading it.

For fellow fans of le Guin, Sturgeon and Smith looking for more authors, I would recommend Lois McMaster Bujold. Space opera adventures on the surface, but with subtle depths and insights into human nature.
Or for something more recent, Ada Palmer’s Terra Ignota series; we have solved world hunger, achieved gender equality and invented flying cars, but what are the implications for world politics and human interactions?
It seems more practical to use BSD’s approach of pledging once in main that the process won’t access the network. Parts of the program that need different capabilities are isolated in their own processes and communicated with using IPC. I don’t think people want to pass all kinds of capabilities around in every function call.
Interesting perspective.
Could you explain why and for whom it's bad?
I can't completely tell from your comment - but do you tend open-source or closed-source as an alternative?
Does this interact with or preclude operating system level capabilities?

Safety takes a back seat to corporate profits of course. Who cares if some schmuck crashes his car because he was looking at a billboard depicting a nearly nude woman, right? The need to sell products to these people is all consuming, they just gotta do it and all other concerns don't really matter to them.
That explanation is correct but somewhat incomplete. Precision approaches with low minimums (the decision point where a missed approach must be initiated) also have an alternate source of vertical guidance (in the typical case of an ILS, it’s a radio beam bounced off the ground and up along the approach path and the pilot has a very tight indication of whether they’re below, on, or above that beam).

The radio altimeter is a secondary or tertiary source of height above terrain information, not a primary.

Without a functioning radio altimeter, some aircraft on approach to some runways would have to use higher minimums than would be available if they have a functioning unit. This will contribute to some missed approaches or diversions in low weather. (Where a missed approach almost never ends in a crash in airline operations but rather a second attempt or a diversion.)
