I recently read an article (sadly I cannot find the link) about the way that delaying of sleep is a fairly common symptom of depression, as it allows the sufferer to feel some measure of control over their life.

As a sufferer myself, for 42 years, I can confirm this - delaying sleep gives me an extended window away from the problems that surface in a challenging period. Of course, this does not stand up to logical scrutiny, but it is, at best, a semi-logical and highly emotional response to adversity.
This is just a PR piece by a guy breaking the rules but saying nah it's OK because my thing I made is cool and you should allow it because I made it.
I pinged their devs, especially regarding their location. I’d assume US as that’s where their founder is according to his personal website [0], but I agree it would be better to have that information there.

Thanks for the explanation. I can only repeat that I don’t think this is solvable. Unlike Signal, which uses E2E this is not possible here, so whatever promises Kagi makes will always have to stay promises as they’ll need to know the content of your search and for what account it is (as your settings influence the results) to give the right reply. At least that’s how I understand it.

Credit scores were invented in the 1950s. I’d estimate that the US financial system has improved substantially since then, in both absolute and relative terms.

“In 1956, engineer Bill Fair teamed up with mathematician Earl Isaac to create Fair, Isaac and Company, with the goal of creating a standardized, impartial credit scoring system. Within two years, they had begun selling their first credit scoring system.”

You might recognize the names Fair and Isaac as the F and I in FICO.

I'm not sure I see the point for a one character typo. If the bug report is just thrown over the fence and this is what is encouraged, then I hope that the project doesn't start saying "please contribute a fix".

If the project does say this, then the answer will be - I want to, but getting privileges to do so are too hard.
I have the same but it feels more like a type of paralysis rather than a loop. I'm finding the more I'm mentally trying to multi task, the worse this gets

I can only do one task deeply at a time but while doing that, I will think and worry about other tasks that need to be done. This stops me from what I am working on, leaving it half way and starting something else. When I reach a point when two or more tasks compete for my attention (or someone drops something on my plate) I feel locked up.

The best thing I've found is to capture tasks as soon as I get them and try to ignore things until my current task is done. Otherwise, i drift of into mindless scrolling
To me the problem as stated is more about how the org takes a narrow view of estimation.

To unpack all 20 scope items for the sprint would take 2 days, but the two hours given are insufficient and generate estimates that are insufficient.

Will the hours spent unpacking all 20 work requests no longer be required ? No, the team will still go into each item and do the same planning at sometime during the sprint and so it is an organizational choice as to weather you frontload that conversation and benefit from a delayed but more visible estimation of how the work will get done, or you make the choice of this org, where you throw in all the job orders and hope for the best within a 2 week blast radius for any real planning mistakes that slip through.
Now you made my lunch better.

Thanks!
I see the data is coming from Spotify, my experience from trying to use their api was that use cases are quite restrictive and you had to request access (they would let us do what we wanted).

If the developer is here, what is the agreement you have with Spotify? Do you have any plans of offering an API yourselves?

I would be interested in a paid api that gave us access to the data available though the Spotify api, they don’t offer one.
They only have people like Greg reaching out to you when your problem is posted on HN. They would have continued to ignore you had you not had the same reaction on HN. They've screwed up big time with us in the past and Greg wasn't reaching out.

Are you me? :)

One other thing that sometimes works is that I will tell myself: Ok, you should start this thing, but you only have to do ${trivial-amount} on it. Then you can do ${more-enticing-thing}.

I don't know why this works since obviously I'm fully privy to the subterfuge... but if I can manage that first trivial amount (e.g. when I was writing tech books it would be one paragraph) I would often end up finishing the task (e.g. drafting a whole chapter) as I discover that the thing I fear is illusory.

It's all very frustrating. As often as not the thing I'm procrastinating upon is something I actively enjoy once I get going!
Maybe everything would become a trade secret but given what is at stake I wouldn’t assume that to be true. We’ve seen in the open source world that collaboration can be a valuable tool for everyone involved. Even big industry players understand there are benefits to open source.

And for medication we see companies abusing the patent system, reformulating drugs and re-patenting them. Though there’s something rotten about the other parts of the system that make this worthwhile.
> How are films supposed to get funded if people get them for free?

> What is your model for how films should get funded?

The same way free-to-air TV pays for itself - adverts. Either a couple of ad breaks in the film, or rotating watermarks on screen throughout the film. And make getting it easier than me finding the equivalent torrent. Release schedule - cinema, streaming, 'free'.

When films aren't available on any of the streaming services I subscribe to, what do you expect me to do? Pay another £60 per annum to watch one film on a streaming service I'll never use again? I read somewhere there are 1000 streaming services in the UK, and over 2000 in the US.

I've said before on here, it's a shame we didn't have today's bandwidth back in the mp3 days, because that forced the hand of the music industry to back iTunes, or Spotify, and only now they're beginning to fragment a little. If the video industry was under pressure from widescale cheap piracy, we'd have an industry wide streaming site. Instead we have Netflix, Prime, Hulu, Disney+, HBO, and so on.

One day before launch Paramount pulled Star Trek Discovery off Netflix to their own streaming service. Can you guess what the most pirated TV show was over the following weeks?

To be clear, I don't agree with piracy, but I have zero sympathy for movie studios and their shitty walled gardens.

I don't think this person is considering the single mom who has to work multiple minimum wage jobs just to make ends meet; the people who have never had any opportunity to have any sort of "network" to magically get another job.

When you're in that position, you're constantly exhausted because of how much you're working. You have no savings. You absolutely cannot afford to just "quit" and have things work out.
I’ve been developing Django for two weeks and I agree.

1) ORMs have the concept of lazy vs eager, no matter which framework. It’ll bite if you don’t know what you’re doing in any language. They’re still less bad than raw sql.

2) a default user model is better than any attempt an average developer would implement themselves. Go on, I dare you to try and hash passwords correctly.

3) if I wanna know wtf a data migration is for, I’ll look at the commit message, and code changes.

4-6 ) these are opinions of the Django team. I don’t really agree with them, but I chose to use their software. You know what doesn’t have opinions? Raw php, and I know which language/framework I’d prefer..

> That was actually a kind of jab how D nowadays has a jungggle of attributes, and the workaround taken by most on the community.

Ah yeah, this is why i added that EDIT but you replied before i did :-P. I agree about that part, i remember D being a bit attribute trigger happy :-P but i guess the alternative would be to break backwards compatibility which is IMO worse. Though perhaps something similar to Free Pascal's "modeswitch" directive would help (FP devs use it to introduce new syntax without breaking backwards compatibility).

> Delphi has type inference via inline variables

I know it is there but i don't really like it myself for the reasons i mentioned above (also i prefer sticking all variables together even in C++, too much code is usually a sign i need to break the functions into subfunctions and Pascal allowing nested functions is a feature i use very often). It is also one of the very very few case where Free Pascal developers have explicitly decided to not implement something because they feel it doesn't fit the language :-P.

Try it free then ask your boss to pay it.

For me at least it saves me whole minutes and lots of stress on about half my queries which means at $20 it pays for itself in half a month and as a free bonus I get better results for the rest of the month as well, an ad free experience, no tracking and the opportunity to support a Google competitor.

Two Sides of the Digital Coin
There is a lot of goodness in this article. I can see why many people don't enjoy the style, but its essence is inspiring and positive.

You don't need to risk bankruptcy to follow the article's main idea, which is to try to use your available resources to invest in high risk, ambitious projects. Criticizing the article as speaking of "privilege" misses the point entirely - this is starting from the assumption that you are able, through networking, excess savings from previous jobs, family connections, etc, to amass the resources for this kind of investment.

Most people in this "privileged", or well deserved, position DO NOT invest their lives and talent in these big projects. Instead, they increase consumption and get tied to over-insured, materially comfortable lifestyles. And I'm not talking about the ultra rich here, but simply the top 20% in disposable income of the developed world. Tens of millions of people could use the article's ideas to better themselves and the world around them by spending a part of their life invested in high risk, high potential benefit projects.

The author sees their magazine as one such project. Maybe they are right... Who knows? I think the world is a tiny bit of a better place because they are trying to do it.

What about those who can't afford to do this? I don't think the article is for them (yet!), and that's okay. From time to time I see articles here about web development, these don't do anything for me because I'm not a web developer. Not every idea needs to benefit every person.
No one is forcing them to fly the planes. If they lost the slots to a competitor that has passengers, that’s how it should be.

By that measure, how capitalist is Argentina?

By that token there are no capitalist countries at all!

A capitalist country with more regulations than you'd like is exactly that: a capitalist country.

Argentina is not communist. You're embarrassing yourself.

I've seen you claim you live in all sorts of countries, but whatever.

You are wrong. The only people who agree with your strict definition of "capitalism" are libertarians, a tiny minority. I guess all countries in the world -- the US included -- are communist to you.

Good luck with that.

> I'm not sure what you mean by "sharing one time only" or "sharing between processes one-to-one"

By one time only, I meant that you only want to pass the data once, as opposed to sharing the data and being able to update it on one side and see updates on the other one.

It’s not impossible, but practically hard to implement growable/shrinkable shared memory areas, the communicating processes need to unmap and remap the virtual memory regions.

It’s similar with more than 2 processes sharing the memory. Technically doable but hard in practice, for instance it’s easy to leak these memfd handles.

None of these issues are present for threads sharing the address space.

> you just have to allocate the bitmaps differently instead of using the fd_set type

When really unlucky, with these bitmaps one gonna need to waste kilobytes of memory to represent a set with only a couple of handles. The RAM itself is usually cheap at that scale, the problem is the performance overhead of searching for the set bits.

> epoll is a faster alternative to select() (or, as you say, poll()), isn't it?

Right, but for IO bound things, epoll() + multithreading is even faster. Modern network cards are aware of multi-core CPUs on the other side of the PCIe bus. Faster cards like 10 Gbit/second have multiple transmit/receive queues designed to interact with different CPU cores.

OTOH, when things aren’t that I/O bound, the single dispatcher thread is adequate, and the API overhead of poll() is reasonable too, given the usability win.

> Where can I find out more?

Yeah, you’re right about that, accept() never does that, according to specs. However, note the F_DUPFD parameter of fcntl: duplicate the file descriptor using the lowest-numbered available file descriptor greater than or equal to arg. This alone means that for libraries or long-lived projects, relying on file handles to be small numbers is fundamentally unreliable.
Yup. We don't have human-edible truffles around where I live (west coast of Norway), but it is possible to find deer truffles, unrelated fungi with a similar strategy. They release pheromones which make deer go a bit crazy. Apparently they used to be sold in apothecaries as "rutting balls" (løpekule), aphrodisiac for cows basically.
>Perl doesn't really shepherd you into regexp, it's just easy to s/// in it

Well, that's what meant with "shepherding" though. It's not like a language forces you to use a particular feature or only offers that way of doing things.

It's about a language encouraging such a use, including by making it very easy (and, in Perl, first class) - and it's also the culture (and existing codebases) of the language going that way (which, for Perl, is also the case).

There may be a case for tactical use of whatever tools are available to achieve a positive result. Who am I to condemn people to sub-par living conditions on the basis of conceptual arguments...

But please take at heart my previous comment. Climate change may sound like an elite concern but it is not. It is actually representative of our deepest global problems.

The reason that the so-called "third world" still has third world problems is that political and economic systems everywhere ignore environmental and social conditions, focus on resource extraction, enriching a few elites etc.

Some form of digital technology would surely help us solve those very difficult problems or at least make them less painful and unsustainable, but cryptocurrencies is nowhere close to do so. It is simplistic, economically more than naive, has the wrong builtin assumptions about society (complete lack of trust) etc.

In any case, good night and good luck
It feels the same, talking with my therapist she summarised it to me with a question: "is that a feeling like wanting to eat something that doesn't exist?" and since then I kept that in my mind. I doom-scroll/TV-zap usually without even knowing what I want, I just want something that will satisfy this "food that doesn't exist" appetite.

I hate it.
You have changed your argument.

First you challenged the idea that everyone who earns money contributes to society.

Then you changed your argument to challenge the idea that everyone who earns money is a net positive to society.

Those two things are not the same, and moving the goalposts in this way is intellectually dishonest.

A lobbyist contributes to society insofar as that they spend their money in their local community on food and shelter, and in most cases also pay taxes. Whether or not every earner is a net positive to society was not my argument.
If it hadn't been for the glowing reviews of how seamlessly it supported Linux, and the suggestions if not outright claims on the website that it was designed with Linux support in mind, I wouldn't have.

It doesn't sound ridiculous to me that someone might decide to target the Linux market really well even though others haven't. I had hoped that was what had happened. Maybe I wanted to believe it more than I should have believed it.

But that's the motivation behind my posting here, to save anyone from making the same mistake.

I have a $1700 paperweight. Oh well. But that doesn't mean I want anyone else to make the same mistake.
I have a similar issue. Its hard for me to get work done when there are other people around whether its at my place or someone else's. Just the fact that another person is there can be super distracting to me and it makes it difficult to get into a flow state. This is a problem I don't know how to deal with honestly, besides just not working on important stuff when around other people. It does impact me a little at work but luckily I'm pretty solo 90% of the time when I'm there

> I asked because whenever I hear about someone complaining of “wokeism”

Forgive me if you were being genuine, but frequently when I see the word used on the internet, I see replies from people who seem utterly bewildered and claim that they really want to know what the word means. But it's trivial to find out what this or any other word or slang word means with a simple internet search, so it doesn't really seem like they care to learn what it means but rather they are trying to make a statement or trying to use cheap rhetoric to cast aspersion on the post being replied to without actually addressing it in any coherent way. Then when definitions are proffered, they are often not met with gratitude and understanding but with argumentation -- suddenly they do know what it means.

EDIT: Ah I misread your post you indeed were not asking sincerely, you were actually feigning ignorance as I thought. Worse, you're misrepresenting what the word means and baselessly attacking the parent poster as a bigot, and you have refused to walk that back or provide any evidence for these insults. This is a good example of behavior that is described as wokeism.

> they’re complaining about things that I think are good.

That's not what woke means though, it's clearly about hypocrisy and insincerity and performative pointless acts or gestures. Did you not read the definition I gave you, or were you being insincere when you asked about the meaning of the word in the first place? Also, the parent poster did not seem to be complaining about any of the things you are talking about here, if you are making that claim that they are bigoted it's very serious I hope you have some good reason to do so. I would go so far as to say it's totally against the site rules so you need to clarify.
I’m making a solar powered farming robot that is open source and designed to help perform some of the labor that makes these processes more expensive. (See my profile).

There are other ways to solve the problems currently solved by chemical inputs. And there are many examples of functional biodynamic organic farming systems all over the world that suggest we can scale it if we want to. We’ve just been addicted to cheap fertilizer.

It’s interesting to think about where the money goes in our society. Let’s say we never broke up unions in the USA, and wages rose along with productivity instead of stagnating after 1980. Then we could be using more expensive farming methods, which make healthier communities, and yet people would be able to afford it. This is perhaps more similar to how things are done in France, for example.

There’s a lot that goes in to making any commodity relatively cheap or expensive. I think probably healthy soils and healthy foods are worth paying more, but we should make sure our economy functions in a way that everyone can afford food, of course.
Don't buy your bread from a supermarket (in fact, buy as little as you can from a supermarket).
