> However, most good advice is common advice. In practically any field, grokking the fundamental advice and actually sticking to it will get you 99% of the way there. As Charlie Munger once said, "Take a simple idea, and take it seriously."

Definitely. There's also an issue on the flip side of it: many people asking for advice are not doing so sincerely. You'll see it in the new year on fitness forums. People asking for advice on which fad routine (coughCrossfitcough) will make this the year they keep that weight off, or whether they should get a Peloton or a Bowflex. If you give them the simple, obvious advice that most experienced lifters would agree on--do a barbell strength program and count your calories--they get extremely defensive. That isn't an option for them because it's boring. It requires repetitive, uninteresting, and physically strenuous effort multiple times per week. They're actively looking for, as you say, the new and novel advice that gives them the dopamine hit.

So yeah, I disagree with the article's assertion that good advice is not obvious. There's a reason the advice is obvious; it's likely pretty good advice!
When there is no transparency the only thing you can do is assume the worst. Accurate reporting is a luxury afforded countries with transparency.
When I was in high school, I had a friend who had an AWP Dragon Lore from CS:GO that he had unboxed himself (poor condition, but for those of you unfamiliar with the game/market it's still worth good money). He ended up selling it a year or two ago and it financed his first year of community college. I'm still split down the middle about digital assets like that, but I find it funny nonetheless that he took a shitty token of a few thousand wasted hours and turned it into something somewhat valuable.
Krisp is garbage compared to Nvidia's free Voice RTX algorithm or Google Meet's. You also have to pay for it.
Yeah OSE and Apple initially promised Yellow Box for Windows 95 and NT. This was only half realized with WebObjects for Windows.
IMO vehicle noise should also be regulated (alongside aviation noise).

Or at least, some disincentive levied (tax, etc) to discourage noise pollution.

Noise pollution likely has many negative health effects:

Firebase seems to be doing well with new users.

Your take on what I wrote is incorrect and reflects your own bias. What I am advocating for is that we transcend the current state of mental illness & employment into something that permits people to get the help they need, and employers to manage their risks. I'm saying the existing system is broken.
I switched to Fathom at the start of the month and I'm really happy with it. There is a trade off when you opt for a privacy focused product but I think it's more than worth it.

Plus, I think the vast majority of companies overestimate the importance of the data they collect. Maybe there's some interesting insights buried in GA but if you aren't actually using them what difference does it make.

I respect my site's visitors so I use a monitoring system that I personally have no problem being tracked by. I block GA in Firefox so why should I subject my visitors to it?
It’s present tense. Your recollection of all things changes over time. Haven’t you ever been unable to recall something one moment only to remember it later on? They’re saying “I [at present cannot recall]…”
The last three commands are the whole installation (`git clone` and `cd` would be required anyway). Adding a completely unnecessary dependency to a second build tool just to invoke tasks in the build tool they already use would be pretty silly though. They could just define a nimble task to do all three at once.
Wait, is this suggesting you use traditional centralized services to confirm ownership of decentralized items?
This kind of depends on your definition of "the fundamentals", though. Is that assembly, or lambda calculus? You could make a case for either one, but they give you very different ideas of where to start.

C/C++ could be argued to be a compromise that kind of lets you look both ways. (That could be argued to be a virtue, or a fatal flaw...)
The forgetting is happening in the present time. The subject, at this moment, forgets about something that happened in the past.
Right, but the Apple paper I read [1] said that if you did not have iCloud Photos (iow, "put it on the Internet") turned on, CSAM scanning would not occur.

So, how is it different, again?

1. I can't link the paper, because apparently, Apple took it offline. But it was widely-reported on.
The writers current state is forgetting, so it's not totally unreasonable to use the present tense. The good news about English as a language is that it is very resilient to grammar mistakes, you don't need to do all the rules to make someone get it, get it?
Just as an FYI, a few years ago the Mormon Church spent tens of millions of dollars libeling gays as part of its massive Prop 8 campaign.
of course they don't but at least in europe we have a data portability law that forces companies to let users take their data with them when they leave. the problem is, there is not a proper entity that can bundle the users interests and lawsuits to kick these corporations ass to give us what we own.
It is possibly the cleanest dead language out there!

Yeah that makes sense, people talk about what magnitude x "feels" like, but they're really describing an earthquakes intensity rather than magnitude. You don't directly "feel" the magnitude.

Any given magnitude quake is going to feel very different for people in different situations - eg how far away, how deep, soil conditions, how tall the building they are in etc...

Magnitude is related to how much energy is released - useful for seismologists and records, while intensity is related to ground acceleration and subjective effects which is useful for structural engineers and the public caught in one.

eg that 6.2 magnitude Christchurch quake mentioned elsewhere still managed to produce some of the highest ever recorded vertical ground accelerations despite releasing a tiny fraction of what a really big quake can do.
This is encouraging. It appears to work against the omicron variant.

We're currently using the first generation of vaccines. Consider those a minimum viable product. They mostly work, need to be stored cold, have short shelf lives, don't cover enough variants, and are injection drugs.

The next generation of the technology is in development. Some vaccines in test are nasal sprays.[1] Some are pills.[2] Some have broader coverage. There are over a hundred vaccine projects underway.[3] Some will succeed, some won't.

Is there any reason that a device which smooths signal could not be introduced in the circuit, separating the analog computer from the rest of the digital electronics on the same circuit.

Electronics is not my studied field so I may be missing some things, but this seems like a rather simple problem for an EE to handle, no?
I would think with a million cellphones with sensitive accelorometers you could get the data much quicker and much more accurate (a million+ data points gives you a lot of options)

I started keeping Jellyfish. They're beautiful to watch and met the requirement of 'Technical but not Digital' hobby.

For technical subjects (the "most important subjects" with respect to the future career I was planning), I never came out of lectures feeling like I understood the material. Only after reading the textbook, doing exercises, and re-reading the textbook (or looking up a concept online for an alternate explanation if the textbook's writing was ambiguous) did I feel any sort of confidence or perform well on exams.

Watching the lecture helped cement the material after already having a degree of knowledge, but they served best as optional, supplementary material. Since it served mainly to connect concepts together, I can see how watching it at 2x speed would serve the same purpose, but faster.

Most people in university would spend the bare minimum amount of time on both reading, exercises, and lecture in order to get a good grade, where good was defined as "the grade required in order to land a high-paying job". Since I was a non-conformist, I specifically made a point to read all the material assigned (and probably achieved ~80 - 90%), and one of my favorite activities when I was (rarely) ahead of schedule was to spend an hour reading a couple pages or a chapter of literature from an elective course. Every word, phrase, and sentence I would ponder about the meaning the author conveyed through multiple lenses (e.g. how did it affect the characters, the theme, the scenery, the world of the author, the culture he/she wrote them in, as well as the relation/history of the words used throughout the novel -- was this a motif? Did the phrase relate to any motifs?).

My professor mentioned "these books were meant to be enjoyed over many afternoons, to be read at leisure and to relate it to life with all its silly impossible circumstances and happenings". What was the end result of all this slow reading?
In one narrow sense, it led to me getting worse grades than perhaps I would have if I allocated all my time towards getting the best career possible. It also led to depression -- self-inflicted -- and existentialist contemplation as my outcomes were incredibly poor relatively speaking.

What were some of the positives? Sometimes I can look at the brick walkway beneath me and make some quirky, half-sensical remark like "ah, the herringbone
structure. The same one Brunelleschi used in the Duomo in Florence", to which any unfortunate souls try their best to follow socially as if that remark makes any sense in our conversation. Who knows, maybe Sartre would approve.

Rusts ownership system has benefits beyond memory management.

If I'm a situation where having a GC is ok and there is no "major library ecosystem benefit" (or simlilar) for one of the languages I still would choose rust over Python, JS, TS, Java, Kotlin, Dart, Scala (probably C#, idk. as I haven't used it).

The borrow checker is something which cost you once time to learn but if you are fairly familiar with it it normally won't cost you much time (if any). Sure there are still situations in which it can be tricky. But most times they are pretty clear and you can just throw a Clone/Rc/Arc at it and it's normally just fine (the borrow checker is still useful even with managed pointers/collections like Rc/Arc, in a certain way it makes them less error-prone to use, especially in case of more complex types like some thread safe Cow optimized manage pointer type you might find in a library).
This is from the same guy who made fd and bat!
Draw.io does this. When you export a diagram as a PNG. There is an option to embed the source file in the png. If you subsequently open one of those PNGs in Draw.io you can carry on editing it. I find it really handy.

Jack Dorsey personally helped Instagram with this exact feature integration while courting them to be acquired by Twitter. Once that failed he was one of the people who worked to shut this feature off for everyone else, to avoid another situation like that.

His actions say a lot more than all of these re-tweet friendly words he’s been spouting. I’m glad we won’t have to trust people like him or the Twitter Developer team, or need their permission, to succeed in the future.
I have had friends who worked at Facebook brag about how easy it is for them to read anyone's messenger chat.
>Ads have been the only proven way for many people on the web to monetize sustainably.

That's as may be, but it's not my responsibility to view ads or accept tracking/surveillance on my private property.

If you (as a website or other resource) want to monetize the content on your private property/hosted resource, I have no issue with that. At all.

However, I choose to limit tracking/ads on my private property. That doesn't force you to do anything.

If you want to require viewing of ads/allowing tracking (which some sites do) in order to access content, that's fine with me too.

But I'm under no obligation to allow ads/tracking on my private property.

It's not about circumvention or wanting to "deprive" someone of compensation for their hard work. Rather, it's about limiting the amount of tracking/surveillance about me and my private property.

I don't agree to be tracked or advertised to. Full stop.

If folks don't want to share their content with me because I don't agree to be tracked/shown ads, then those folks need to take action. I have nothing to do or say about that.

But I do have the right to control what is displayed/executed on my private property, which includes my browser. That's not "stealing," that's protecting my own interests.
I loved this on Windows but haven't used it since switching to macOS since it seems to not support Retina screens very well, anyone know of a workaround?
It is easier to deal with, going one step further requires dealing with more low level coding and can be demotivating for some.

However I would advise to target an IR instead.

Doesn't need to be LLVM, if the purpose is only learning about compilers, do as follows:

1 - Create an IR, preferably stack based as they are quite easy to target

2 - Basic IR interpreter for testing the workflow

3 - With a macro assembler, convert the IR into machine code in a dumb way

Now you have a workable compiler, even if it won't win any prizes.

If still interesting, then proceed to improve the code generation in a proper way.

Three notes on that:

1) The numbers in "R&D" are substantially worse - 30% URM, 23% female. I'd suspect if you scoped "R&D" down to just software, the numbers would get even worse.

2) I'd expect Apple's numbers here to be broadly higher than the industry at large - larger companies can afford DEI departments and put in more effort to improving their hiring practices.

3) The numbers for leadership are even worse, and that's echoed broadly across the industry - it's not hard to find a black engineer, but it's damn hard to find a black director; it's not hard to find a female engineer, but it's damn hard to find a female principle engineer.

The thing I don’t get about NFTs in general is that they don’t actually seem trustless to me. You need some sort of trusted source that says “this NFT is genuine and not just a bootleg”… and at that point you might as well just have that trusted source track ownership.
Once you share information it is no longer private unless you put that person under an NDA or something similar.

If you meant personal information then that doesn't make sense either. No one owns the fact that George Washington was male. It is just a statement that could be true or false. George Washington has no control over me spreading this information. Especially since he is dead.

>And if you think that treating data in the proper way is hard then you probably shouldn't be in business at all.

The EUs definition of the proper way isn't a universal definition and it conflicts with the way I view that data should be treated.
It's locking you into single threaded usage, but you might very easy run into a library which requires Send bounds, as it uses e.g. rayon internally.

And for the cases where having managed pointers are better, Rc/Arc are often (not always) good enough.
So as you can see, they're spending money on their core mission, rather than wasting it on cushy salaried positions.

Ah thanks, I will check into it more carefully. I've been wanting one and maybe it can suffice without being a full featured tablet.
In my experience it's common when there's a full power down of a large data center like this. In 2013 the company I was working at had an unplanned power outage which took out 200 spinning drives, and 18
servers. I think the motors in the drives are fine running at constant speed but don't have the juice to spin up from a dead stop.

I remember IBM was renting private planes to get us replacement hardware from around the country (we were a very large customer).
Comparing "unfocused without cannabis" to "focused with cannabis" is a no brainer: I am definitely more productive with cannabis if it gets my butt in the chair and fingers typing on the keyboard. Comparing "focused without cannabis" to "focused with cannabis" is a different story, likely favoring the former as you are implying, but I think it is a bit less certain than driving drunk which is always dangerous.
I like seeing new ideas, and I'm one who has already settled on one note-taking technique. Discovering new ideas helps me incorporate new methods and also see some flaws to my techniques. That's all fine.

It's understandable we sometimes feel fatigued on watching these assembly-line of apps coming our way, but it's new ideas and not products that excite me.
This kind of social graph access was used by cambridge analytica. That's why you will never get this kind of access to user data via apis, even if the user grants it to you. (Users granted access to the app which then sold the data to cambridge analytica).

I was at a major social media company on 2016 and overnight these kinds of APIs went from promoting user freedom to radioactive. Don't expect anything from these spineless companies with similarly spineless executives that bow to the woke mob at a slight breeze of discontent.
Appreciate the work you do to keep this site civil. Is downweighing through moderator action a binary feature or is the pressure adjustable depending on the moderator's discretion?
I read the article linked by you https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-pandemics-coronavi.... Thank you.

However, they just "fact checked" if pandemic was orchestrated or not, which I don't believe it was too. What they didn't fact check though was his covid-19 treatment protocol.

>I can easily print out a high-quality Mona Lisa and put it on my wall, and I can enjoy it, but I wouldn't pretend I own it.

Even a half blind person would tell you the print doesn't look anything like the painting. If you want something that looks close to the really thing, it's difficult to make. There is modern art that would be cheap/easy to replicate (eg. a blank canvas made by artist trying to create a debate about what is art or not) but anything that you are likely to want on your wall will easily cost you >500$ to replicate properly in its original size (they are larger than they look).

>It is mathematically impossible to copy the NFT. It isn't the same smart contract, it isn't the same NFT. It is theoretically possible to arrange atoms in the precise location of a physical object, however.

I wrote it poorly, I was referring to the art behind the NFT that you can replicate easily. If I see a very cool picture and want to use it as my wallpaper on my laptop, I don't need to recreate the exact same smart contract with the same wallet key or pay for the NFT, I can just copy the picture in a few clicks. The picture will look the same with or without the NFT

I wonder sometimes if note organizing isn’t a lost cause. If we could just solve note retrieval, who cares about organizing?
I want to make a note when I find out something useful, and I want to retrieve that note when I need the information (or when I find out more, so I can amend the note). Organization seems orthogonal to that desire.
Since 2012 I've been keeping task files to document all the stuff I work on. Most are job related. This comes in handy when I need to re-visit something I've worked on previously, sometimes going several years back in time. The task files are plain text files which are quick to create and update, and I use Sublime Text or VIM to edit. I do both development and operational related tasks, and can work on many tasks during a day. The trick is documenting in the task files right away before the details are wiped from my memory. When looking things up, I usually search by file name, or content, or both. Having documented a task previously can save time when returning to a similar task at a later date.

I use a naming format for the task file, including the date and a short task description, e.g:

task.2021.12.23.short.task.description.txt

Number of task files created since 2012:

Task files: 18231
Total size: 350 MB

For each day I also create a worklog of the tasks I've been working on that day (including minutes spent).
Since 2012 I've registered 2540 daily worklog files:

ls -l task.????.??.??.worklog.txt |wc -l

2540

The worklog files are also used to estimate time necessary to complete similar or recurring tasks.
