Amusingly, I'd bet the tone you're getting from that comment is probably the same tone the commenter got from the "You" thing in the first place.

To me, the capital You reads kind of aggressively. It adds an unusual amount of emphasis to the word which only/mainly happens when an upset person is making an accusation.
Maybe you didn't read the actual poem or maybe you don't understand it, or maybe I'm misinterpreting your reason for sharing this with an implied concern. However it turns out, it should be clear that the poem itself is multi-layered. It is, to me, from the perspective of somebody who has the prescribed duty to apply their culture's ideals to a peoples not compatible; a lament of the perceived need to do so. It is (again, to me) clearly not some kind of racist screed... unless you read it with an eye to specific terms and associations without considering any context, either from the poem itself or from the circumstances leading to its writing.

Look beyond the cover.
So handshake.org seems to be the authoritative source on everything handshake, and it has several lengthy posts describing how using anything but it and things it vouches for to interact with handshake is about the absolute dumbest thing a person could possibly do [1]. And while namebase.io looks like it might provide an incredibly intuitive "getting started with handshake" experience, it's not vouched for by handshake.org. Can you explain why using namebase.io to mint a handshake name isn't the dumbest thing I could possibly do?

There is no nuance. The society where anyone can become the best worker will produce better workers, and more of them.

There are a handful of poems that helped me on the road to adulthood. This was one of them. Others are

- Invictus, Henley

- Do not go gentle into that good night, Thomas

- Desiderata, Ehrmann

- The Man in the Arena (Citizenship in a Republic ), Roosevelt (prose, not poem)
Why would that be? A caste is an extended family. It certainly can be an instrument of oppression but it doesn't have to be and for most it isn't.

Are you one of those Americans who think any expression of e.g. White/Southern pride is a sign of KKK racism? I mean it could be but some people just enjoy being Southern.

"Caste System" in India is like "Patriarchy" or "Structural Racism" in the West. Some people are very invested in the idea. Some think it is one of several factors. Some argue it is an invalid concept and some just say la la I'm not listening.

Drawio is great, I particularly love how you can export a png and include the drawio source embedded in the png.
It makes more sense if you consider the file format for iWorks used Document Packages ( https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Co... )

So this single file setup is actually a conversion of how a multi file directory structure would have been.

The choice of a document package makes sense when you see how even a spreadsheet might embed media etc... But synchronization applications like Box fail to handle packages even today so moving to a single container file allows keeping a lot of the old parsing code intact while achieving better support for things that prefer single files.

Are those timestamps, or actual dates, i.e. meaning a whole day encompassing (usually) 24 hours?

In many (most?) data warehousing projects I've seen, you make a "fake date" integer the primary key column of your Dates dimension. This integer consists of 10000 × YEAR_PART + 100 × MONTH_PART + 1 × DAY_PART of the date in question, so yesterday's New Year's Eve woul get 10000 × 2021 + 100 × 12 + 1 × 31 = 20211231. The date dimension itself has many more columns (often booleans, IS_WEEKEND, IS_HOLIDAY, etc; also the date parts themselves in both numeric and character form (12, 'December'), day of week (5 [or 6, depending on convention], 'Friday'), etc) that are used for BI and reporting.

But since this generated ISO-8601-date-as-integer column is the primary key of the Dates table, it is also the value of the Date foreign key in all tables that reference Dates. That makes it incredibly handy in queries -- both during development and for ad-hoc reports -- of those tables without joining to the Dates dimension at all: grouping, sorting, limiting to a more manageable date interval in the WHERE clause... And it tells the reader exactly what the actual date in question is. (Well, at least readers who are used to ISO-8601-format dates.) As jerryp would have said, recommended.

> I do think cars have their place, but I don't understand how people have come to believe that cars in, say, Manhattan or the center of Paris, make a lot of sense.

People have come to believe it because they believed it when cars first came on the scene.

They believed it then because before cars major dense urban areas were not low traffic pedestrian safe areas that got ruined by cars. They were areas full of heavy horse and horse drawn vehicle traffic with pedestrian fatality rates from horse and horse drawn vehicle accidents comparable to modern pedestrian fatality rates from cars in those cities in modern times.

NYC for instance in 1900 actually had a higher pedestrian fatality rate from horse accidents than from car accidents in 2003 [1]. In England and Wales the car rate is a little higher than the horse rate [2]. Here are some accounts of what horse accidents were like [3].

(As noted in the BMJ article, a direct comparison of fatality rates might not be the right comparison because we have much better treatment for injuries nowadays. Many accidents that were fatal back then would be survivable today).

From that BMJ article:

> Motor vehicles were welcomed because they were faster, safer, unlikely to swerve or bolt, better able brake in an emergency, and took up less room: a single large lorry could pull a load that would take several teams of horses and wagons – and do so without producing any dung.

So of course people accepted cars in their city centers. They were a big improvement over what they had before.

Honestly, I've yet to hear a good reason not to just use Python for scripting that's any more complex than a series of commands. I resisted this for years, but one day realized I was only doing it because it felt intuitively right that scripts were simple extensions of the way one engages with the terminal interactively. I had to come to terms with the fact that the intuition gap is due to the fact that bash is so dang awful.

I suspect if anyone uses it too much per hour or something, they will block you awhile and ask you to sign up for a plan. This is what google translate does.
This is, in fact, quite relevant. The poem "If" is, largely, an endorsement of traditional norms of masculinity, and the same sort of far-right conservatism is the source of the racist prejudices in The White Man's Burden--and in his other famous work, The Jungle Book.

In fact, the connection between the poem "If" and colonialism is even more direct:

> To take one example, Rudyard Kipling’s poem ‘If…’ (1895), which acts as a guide to manhood for his son, takes inspiration from colonial administrator Leander Starr Jameson, presenting him as the ideal man.

Yes, the vinaya was for monks; precepts for laypeople were a later addition. I think to a great extent, though, he's not talking about good Buddhist monks vs. bad Buddhist monks; he's talking about what distinguishes the Buddhist path from the paths followed by other "contemplatives". If you look a couple pages back from that quote, you'll see that the sutta is contrasting him with various other "contemplatives" — today we'd call them Hindu sadhus, but "Hindu" didn't become a religious identity until some 2000 years later.

As for the question of whether everybody should become a monk, well, certainly the Mahayanist Bodhisattva Vow claims so — if not in this lifetime, in some future lifetime. But the authenticity of the Mahayana sutras is sufficiently divisive that it created a schism in Buddhism that continues today, 2000 years later.

I think there are a couple of interesting facts we can get from the list of games:

1. Either Shakyamuni thought playing games like these amounted to "having vices" incompatible with striving diligently at meditation, or the Buddhist sangha thought he thought that within a few centuries of his death. Perhaps even more surprising, he thought the same thing about going to concerts and using mirrors.

2. Holy shit, people have been playing pick-up sticks and guessing letters drawn in the air for 2500 years?
That's a hugely flawed north star. We've had inequality as long as we have had surplus. The more surplus, the more inequality.

But I'd rather live today than in hunter gatherer times, even though they were materially more equal.

"Why not modern life with less inequality?" Well because growing the pie and splitting the pie are competing drivers. If Elon musk weren't already obscenely wealthy, he wouldn't have been able to execute against space x. I'd rather live in a world where Musk is worth a quarter of a trillion dollars than in one where we didn't have Space X.

They are a bit of an improvement over some devices out there, but they are probably a downgrade from Bose bluetooth devices I have owned temporarily (I returned them to exchange for a wired buds pair).

I think you are giving Apple too much credit. I would say Airpods have good marketing and it is smart to give them away for free with their other products to create or perpetuate an illusion of popularity.

My mother hung this poem over the bathroom in my house when i was a kid. I probably read it 1k times. Great stuff!

Another excerpt of my favorite bathroom poems:

“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.”

Poet William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)

I agree. Its low quality journalism completely devoid of any actual analysis of data about indians who emigrated and the businesses they run.

Makes me wonder if I can trust the Economist to present me an accurate picture on topics I don't know much about.

A similar thing happened with Politico where I read an article about an issue I am very knowledgeable about (H1B visas). It was very opinionated, riddled with factual errors, bad sourcing, incorrect or straight up omitting any data that didn't fit a predefined narrative. You just had to Google a little bit to find the actual data from DOL.

Completely shattered my trust in them and makes me doubt everything they report on, if they couldn't be bothered to enforce basic journalistic standards.
Accept that projects and hobbies are meaningless to anyone but yourself. If something interests you, spend time on it. When it stops being interesting, don't reminisce about it, and find something else. Losing interest in things is natural and not necessarily a mental problem.

This is entirely unrelated to how you want to take care of yourself. If you notice any physical problem, go to a doctor. If you experience actual mental problems, talk to a psychologist. Do it sooner than later.

To me, it's stylistically very weird to include the W in source code that humans will read and write, because the fact that it's the unicode version is immaterial, and should appear on literally every API call. If macros are a problem, I feel like the ideal situation would be to declare without the W, and use some compiler or linker hint to append the 'W' to the symbol.

> Your example is one of the state punishing you, not an example of a fundamental right. Services provided to you is not a right simply because the government provides them.

I'm not sure which example you are referring to; I gave several. But if you're referring to the state punishing you (by taking away your kids for not feeding them), keep in mind the state will by default become the ward of orphaned children and it will indeed pay foster parents to take care of the children.

The broader point that we clearly don't agree on is that rights are in fact negotiated in a social contract. They are an agreed upon set. In man's state of nature before civilization, there are no rights and no authority but power: violence and threats of violence. Even proto-societies that develop in groups of primates, the rules are set by convention and agreement. Almost any statement that either you are I could come up with that starts off with "well clearly the inherent rights include X and Y and Z" is false on its face. We can really only talk about rights in the context of them being respected. By whom? The members of society and particularly its governing bodies.

Again, I gave several examples. Providing for children, even if the state does it, is clearly not in dispute, and that alone refutes your rather bold statement. Emergency medicine is another; that's something that applies to adults. In any modern society it's accepted that my human rights "force" EMTs to render emergency help, regardless of my ability to pay[1].

[1] I can't think of many countries besides America where emergency bills can be astronomical, but even there, regardless, a hospital must make every reasonable effort to save your life and eat the cost if you cannot pay.

> e.g. start small with something like "never go to bed with dirty dishes in the sink"

I recommend starting even smaller with “wash at least one dirty dish before going to bed”. Chances are you’ll wash all of them, but you need to be able to still count it as a success on days when you just cannot make it past one.

As for cleaning, I have a once in a while thing where I feel like cleaning, and I trash about 10% of the clutter each time, saving some 40% more because I think I might need it. Every cycle removes another 10% of what was previously the 40%. It’s not perfect, but it has sort of stabilized the situation.

I still have whole boxes of clothes I can probably trash since I never use them, but I’m attached to them for historical reasons. Taking a picture before throwing something away helps.
