As someone who has extensively traveled both in groups and solo, this looks like a hookup app. This is not something I would have used back when I was traveling. What I'm most interested in seeing while I'm traveling is a way to organize things with people who I may not see the next day to help do things like get commitments on time/place, shared costs, etc. Right now it's a spreadsheet, apps like Venmo, and luck if you want to plan something out with someone else who's also a traveler. Folks who live a nomadic lifestyle tend to be rather mercurial, so I know it's a tall order to expect technology to address the social issue of people flaking or not following through, but that's the biggest challenge of group activities with other travelers in my experience.

As for meeting individuals, I don't see the point of trying to specifically meet other travelers unless it's for hookups, and if that's your thing you can just stay at a hostel and hookup with random people, that's essentially what hostels are for. The only way this type of app makes sense other than hookups is if it's intended for groups to meet other groups and plan shared activities.
I disagree with the definition of the mentoring and coaching from the article.

Maybe the author definition is from sports, but outside it here is how I see (and how many of people that I encountered so far see) the difference between coach and mentor:

In a coaching relationship the coache sets the agenda not the coach. The coach is more backseat than a mentor. The coach is there to walk along the coachee on the coachee path while providing guidance when asked, usually in the form of guiding questions or helping navigate various points of views or helping go through decision frameworks.

In a mentor relationship the mentor sets the agenda together with the mentee. A mentor has a more active role in the agenda providing active guidance and feedforward. The mentor and the mentee walk together on a path they both agreed on.

As an example:

If I would go to a coach and say ask about should I learn Elixir or not taking into consideration my Ruby background, then the coach will not answer yes or not. But should help me discover for myself the answer. It will usually help me look at this question from various points of view or can provide a decision framework, but the answers (or the content of my answers) will always be mine or my own discovery. So they will not state "Elixir is like Ruby" or "Elixir is not like Ruby" but they might ask "How can you assess if Elixir is like Ruby?" or "What is the smallest project that you can create to see if you like Elixir".

If I would go to a mentor and ask about should I learn Elixir I expect them to tell me pro and cons of Elixir and also have an opinion about if Elixir is really similar with Ruby or not and even express their preference for this programming language or the other.

So I choose to go to a mentor or coach depending on what outcome I want to have and what experience they have.

PS: Please take the Elixir and Ruby just as an example of a technical matter to be discussed with a coach or mentor.
Smart people chuck the encoded video at the GPU and let that deal with it: e.g. https://docs.nvidia.com/video-technologies/video-codec-sdk/n... ; very important on low end systems where the CPU genuinely
can't do that at realtime speed. Raspberry Pi and so on.

> 16.6ms

That's sixteen million nanoseconds, you should be able to issue thirty million instructions in that time from an ordinary 2GHz CPU. A GPU will give you several billion. Just don't waste them.

No, of course not. Today it would be done as a 1000-line case statements where each case jumps off to another case statement.

I think boffinism's comment below hits it, but to also add -- its important to try and find a charitable interpretation of comments when possible. Here I think empathy was meant literally as understanding other people's needs and points of view. If you don't know people with some problem directly, and also don't know how to find them -- how sure are you that the problem you are solving is real and in need of a practical solution? You have to understand user needs very well to build a novel product that people want to use. Its not about software startups solving the worlds problems -- I think its just a very general point about solving problems you understand and not ones you don't have any experience with.

To give a more concrete example, I know of a successul life insurance company. It was started because the founders had a bad experience with purchasing life insurance. They then worked with (and as) life insurance agents to better understand the customer (and insurer's) needs. THEN they built a company, one solution at a time.

Their PhD are absolutely not "work similar to an average [phd] student"

It was utter nonsense, and a quick read of any page in any of the papers supporting their PhD thesis from someone with working knowledge of the area will show it to be word salads.

My experience matches yours pretty strongly. I've never really had an issue meeting individuals while traveling solo, it's more about when I'm in a group meeting other groups to temporarily add new faces to the mix. I also generally prefer to stay in some place at /least/ one month, and just live a "normal" life in a different location and meet some locals along the way.
> A couple other things that I do is to sit on an idea for at least a month before I start building.

Just thinking about it right now, I've been setting on an idea for nearly two years, and I'm honestly still very excited about it. I've tried to build and MVP for it, but after about a week I went through the same cycle again. That was nearly 6 months ago, and nearly every day I think about this idea, and it still excites me.

I've seen multiple people build the same product, and they're all doing well, and I honestly believe I can pull this of in the city that I'm in. (It's more of a localized product)
There's a bit of arrogance in the post you replied to. He stays away from tourists yet he's a tourist himself.

Aquatic plants have different goals. Most of them are aggressively clonal and flowering is just one possible strategy to compete

For underwater pollination, well, we assume that Posidonia is pollinated by water currents but there is an huge number of things that we still don't know about sea ecosystems.
Limiting supply of fossil fuels doesn't spur green technology. Investment in R&D does. Why not stop subsidizing that fossil fuel power instead? See as it stand if you just ban new sources, while continuing to subsidize the power, you protect existing players form competition, while feeding them tax payer money, and simultaneously ensuring that they can transform their (now government mandated) monopoly in fossil fuels into a similar monopoly in the next energy source. This is just corporate welfare policy dressed up as environmentalism.
Sadly this is the common theme among all of the large population centers. And if you want a high paying job you have to live in a large population center or get paid sub-standard wages with poor career growth that will not keep up with rising housing costs that occur even in rural locations.

Relative to rent, wages are not keeping up and we are facing a future where a significant portion of the population will not have stable housing.
I miss the fad of Compiz effects. Sure they were silly but it added a little fun to the desktop. I never really got into desktop themes preferring something plainer and smaller (because screen real-estate was still a commodity back then) but wobbly windows and closing effects largely didn't take much away from usability while still adding a little personality.

The other day I wrote this bash code after getting frustrated with the password generators available to me, just so I had something to use right in the shell:

https://gist.github.com/pmarreck/f4dbb02396c4532762a7a64511c...

It actually took an entire afternoon and went through a couple iterations, and I hadn't even written a test for it yet (and it just so happens that I started an MVP shell-script testing library for just such an occasion when I ALSO got frustrated with the bash-accessible testing libraries available to me, also in Bash: https://github.com/pmarreck/tinytestlib)

But then I immediately felt bad. I could have written all of this in less than an hour in a language like Elixir, with test coverage (and the testing/assertion lib is built-in, so it would have been free).

It is impressive and code-golfish that someone can "write a webserver in pure Bash" but Bash is a crap language to script in at this point, and adding more Bash code to the world just seems wrong now. Bourne shells were invented in the 70's (!), long before many language advancements and understandings, and they thus have MANY warts (many of which we're familiar with).

The next time I feel the urge to code anything more than a one-liner in Bash, I'm writing it in elixir script https://thinkingelixir.com/2019-04-running-an-elixir-file-as... and just sucking up the extra run time (or compiling it into an executable with something like https://github.com/spawnfest/bakeware/ and sucking up the extra megabytes), and then MAYBE writing a wrapper function for my .profile

Incidentally, if you DO want a shell that "tastes like" Bourne but is functional and thus sucks a lot less, check out https://github.com/wryun/es-shell, or my fork of it https://github.com/pmarreck/es-shell/
> cities that offer benefits for tourists

An aesthetically pleasing scenery would be one of those benefits.
> Maybe, just maybe, you are in love with the idea of “build a side-project, and passively make money of it

I think you might actually be right about that, now that I think about it...
If you want to do that, then travel with a purpose.

I've found that just being a tourist, I was kind of an inconvenience to everyone. But when I was there for a purpose, as when I did most of my traveling for ski racing or training, it was natural to make connections. Much less so when traveling to conventions, and least as a tourist.

It was also cool that the schedule of the purpose would take me to places I'd otherwise never go.

So, perhaps take up an activity, whether sports, academic, hobby, whatever, that often has events or meetings around the country or world, and follow that... Kind of becomes a double benefit...
Try to start with something very small. If people use it, add features and charge for a "Pro" version. This process should teach you a lot. Even if you don't make it all the way to generating money.

My experience was something like this: I had a small niche website while having a job. This website was making less than $50/mo from ads. When I quit my job to start an online business, I wanted to make something new, a community. But I had no experience with that type of website. Not only did I spend a lot of time (12 months) building the "product", but I also had no idea how to market it and no idea how to make money from it. Eventually, I started making small websites again, similar to the one I already had. I used the same platform, so a new "product" was ready in less than 3 months, sometimes less than a month. Surprisingly, at least to me, these small websites grew bigger and bigger, so they have become my source of income.

After all of this, the lesson for me was to stick to what works and what I can do.

Regarding point 6, I also have that problem, so I try to see if I can offer something more, different or if I can remix it. If not, I move on. I don't find it satisfactory to just clone an existing product.
There is also regionalism in play, though it is not as strong as it used to be, especially amongst younger generations.

In particular, the southeast region (Gyungsangdo - GSD) is the core of the right-wing, and the southwest region (Jeollado - JLD) is the core of the left-wing. I really cringe at using the words "right" and "left" here because South Korean politics doesn't neatly align with what many Westerners would think of when hearing those terms. But for lack of better terminology...

In any case, the earlier presidents (or quasi-dictators) hailed from GSD and overtly favoritized their home provinces in terms of economic development, etc. while leaving JLD less developed. This has led to resentments that reflect in politics that persist to this day.

Some would argue the rivalry goes back even further. Historical texts exist that describe animosity between the GSD and JLD regions back into the Joseon dynasty. Going back even further, the GSD and JLD regions were the rival and enemy kingdoms of Shilla and Baekje respectively, the former which eventually conquered the latter.

It used to be that it was even taboo to marry across GSD-JLD lines, but again, this mainly affects the older generations. Personally - while I am Korean-American, my family comes from GSD. My wife is from JLD. My dad is on the conservative spectrum in terms of Korean politics and I was initially worried what he would think when I introduced my then-girlfriend to my parents for the first time. Thankfully it was a total nothingburger and my now-wife and my parents get along absolutely fine.
FWIW, my impression is that enforcement per se doesn't matter, but it does matter what source of truth the enforcement authority looks at.

Somebody puts an entry on the blockchain that says they own my house. OK so what? Nobody cares. They can't get that enforced. If you want to make the sale "real" to the authorities, you have to enter it into the land registry - but now you have a coordination problem. Do we put it into the blockchain first (and hence you pay first) and then the land registry? Or vice versa? Either one requires trust. Hm, maybe we better involve a trusted third party like an escrow company... oh wait we just reinvented the existing system.

All of this is not dissimilar to people selling NFTs of someone else's art. And you'll see the same problems if/when they try to violate copyright on that basis.

If you could convince the relevant authorities that the blockchain was the system-of-record then you'd have something useful. But with all the problems of losing ownership, hacking, inability to recover defrauded assets, etc, what are the odds of that happening?

It's mainly intended as a server CPU, which often go for for lots of cores / threads over maximum single core clockspeed. That 32 core / 1.7GHz config doesn't seem too hot for either though.

The workstation is presumably intended as a developer tool really, for those that want real hardware on hand instead of remote access (and don't want a noisy server in an office). Going to be even more niche and low volume than the server versions, so gonna cost a fair chunk.
I may start doing that for my own projects.
For now it's just a project. I learned Flutter and wanted to build something with it.

Verbiage is another one.

I think we agree here. The argument I am making is that spacer components that introduce DOM bloat can negatively impact large apps, especially on low power devices.

A layout component does not have to introduce DOM bloat, it could apply layout directly via CSS to it's children. Layout components in this regard are incredibly helpful.

464xlat is standardized and can be set up automatically. All it needs is a DNS query to any v4-only hostname to detect if DNS64 is in operation.

Most 4g modems work as routers exposing an ethernet interface to the host, so it's certainly possible that it's doing 464xlat in the firmware, and if it doesn't tell you on some sort of status page then the only real hint that it's doing it would be a reduced path MTU.

I wouldn't be surprised if T-Mobile offer legacy service to any type of business contract or non-phone client though.
7 hours a day is definitely an exaggeration but it isn’t that far from some common extreme cases. My mother in law when we visit her will spend most of her time in the kitchen preparing each meal, but then she kills her own chickens also (this being a low tier Chinese city). She has just done cooking that way most of her life. Then again, when we lived in China eating in was a special case and eating out was cheaper/more time efficient and was pretty healthy if you chose the right stuff.

In practice, the way things disappear is almost a fatal flaw for me. I don't watch a lot of streaming video from these services, but I enjoy what I do quite a bit. I'll put a lot of stuff on my "future watchlist", whatever they call it, and get around to it several months later.

Which means my experience with Netflix was quite often that I would see something I want to watch, but it would disappear before I watched it. That's like, maximally frustrating.

And as Silicon Valley becomes ever more comfortable with censorship, as long as they can justify it to themselves that they're only doing it badthink badpeople so it's OK as long as it's in favor of them, it's likely that more and more things are going to get modified or disappeared. They're up to putting passive-aggressive warnings in front of some things now, it's only a matter of time and not much of it before they start outright editing old things wholesale. This is still theoretical... but only just. They've been creeping up on this for a while and they are very close to running out of small steps to take before they get to this point.

My impression of Arm-world SMT is that it was added in duress because people kept asking for it despite the word-of-God being that it was better just to add additional cores (I wonder if their license structure influences that claim?). Today SMT Arm cores are still very much the minority, so either the fashion sustained or their customers/implementors agree that more cores are better than fewer cores with SMT.

There are no AVX-512 instructions. But that's the x86 branding of the vector instructions that you can only implement with the right x86 licence. So it's tautological. Arm can have vector instructions and languages are even beginning to make portable interfaces for vectors on multiple architectures.
So you’ve said that you don’t have this problem because your not a successful app? Or are you denying that there’s duplicate HTML, and sometimes JS and CSS being sent? 100k for 100 users is 10mb and bandwidth is one of the easier ways to save costs.
Placing recipes on the bottom and behind “click to show” type features forces users to remain on your site for a longer period of time. This makes it appear to Google that users are more “engaged” on your website because it takes longer for them to bounce in the cases where the recipe isn’t what they are looking for.
Using a try/catch block won't attach an error handler at the right time (before the next event loop tick):

// promise1 will resolve after one second
let promise1 = new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1000))
// promise2 will wait for the next even loop tick to call its error handler
let promise2 = Promise.reject('something bad')

// At this point, you should await promise2, or set an error handler using .catch
// But you can do some sync stuff if you want to:
someExpensiveCPUStuff()

// But if you do anything async, it'll print a warning in Node.js
let result1 = await promise1

If you ever need to store a promise and its error over time (ie. an async cache), you can wrap the value, and unwrap it when needed:

let wrapped = promise
.then(result => ({ type: 'resolved', result }))
.catch(error => ({ type: 'rejected', error }))

await doSomeAsyncStuff()

let result = await wrapped.then(data => {
if(data.type === 'resolved') {
return data.result
} else {
throw data.error
}
})
