i find a lot of the creativity/puzzle solving is in figuring out what they (product + customers) actually want to accomplish and how that models abstractly into computing terms. Once you realize what is being modeled you can often creatively see how given multiple future features are all just a different class of X and can be treated identically/similarly save for a couple of tokens or a slightly different finishing touch

and example might be a permissions feature that could be designed as adding a column to each row, or could be more generalized into a foreign table giving the ability to N:N, or create arbitrary new permissions etc.
This sim was released for the first human mission Demo-2. Back then I also created an autopilot, written in Go and running in the browser via WebAssembly: https://github.com/mbertschler/dragon-iss-docking-autopilot

This autopilot doesn't use the rotation and translation rates as input, just the momentary values. It also uses the same control function for all axes.

We built our product for the web. People wanted our product as a desktop app. So we wrapped it in Electron and now we have 3 desktop apps. People wanted our product as a mobile app. So we wrapped it in Capacitor and now we have two mobile apps.

>>Most of the users here, who probably work at IT companies and startups that never made money until now, never will make money, or needed to burn 10 years through investors money, that are basically the pensions of the people you mock here.

Umm, no - I'd sincerely doubt that "most of the users" here are working at IT companies and startups that never made money until <insert random date>. Even if they did, they certainly were being compensated well for the work. Are you aware that we are discussing a POSSIBLE living wage of roughly 15 USD/h, which is still ridiculously low, but at least a laudable goal, while you are selling me laments about the VCs and owners not making it in what is an incomparable industry to hospitality (60% of restaurants fail in the first year - she's still profitable throughout her multiple restaurants even in the middle of a pandemic and has the temerity to complain about paying her workers living wages... done here)

My argument is not about IT companiesand VC-funded startups, but about the restaurant business in a mid-pandemic economy and the lack of perspective the owner of said restaurant displays regarding her worker's wages.

If she is willing to treat them as merely expenses to be eliminated and not as partners in a struggling business reaching success, then again, she should not be running a restaurant.

Food is essential - restaurants are not (to quote someone else somewhere up/downthread).
No you can reasonably have high wages, decent profits, and high output. Big tech in the US already does that exceptionally well. There's no reason TSMC can't do it, other than they don't want to sacrifice some profit.

TSMC is upset because of the lack of enough slave labor in Arizona.

I'm hopeful that research into whatever "long covid" syndrome is/isn't leads to excellent new medical knowledge that applies to much more than just COVID edge-cases.

I suddenly got similar symptoms since getting a nasty version of strep throat last October. Notably I had an elevated fever (>102F) for quite a few days straight. I've never had COVID but I did get the mRNA vaccines + booster.

Since that fever, my heart goes into light arrhythmia all too frequently. It used to be maybe once or twice a year I'd notice 1-3 seconds of "off-beat" heart pattern. All of of a sudden it's a few times a week. I'm also getting older (entering mid 30's now), live in some of the worst air quality in the US (next to a bunch of chemical plants which are frequently releasing quantities of ethylene oxide/mercaptans/styrenes/acrylates/etc), and haven't been exercising much at all the past few years (largely due to air quality issues). My diet isn't the best either, but I incorporate a lot of fresh salmon which keeps my blood pressure down, triglycerides low, and HDL really quite high.

There's probably more I could do to help myself using just current medical knowledge, but additional knowledge and medical practices are always, always welcome IMO.

Revenue and earnings made via a government provided and recognized privilege of limited liability are fair game for the government to regulate (edit: and tax).

If individuals wish to operate outside of limited liability, un-shielding all their assets to the consequences of their actions, then they can keep all their revenue/earnings.

I think it's BS that limited liability orgs commit acts that damage the environment and others, pay dividends to share holders, salaries (and bonuses) to officers and employees, and then go bankrupt when they are then being held to account for their actions and leaving little to nothing to their victims because there is no ability to claw back the money they paid out.

Quid pro quo. They get limited liability for being regulated. Don't like being regulated? Then forego limited liability.

This is an interesting topic, for me.

I write iOS apps, and iOS requires that all internet communications be done with HTTPS.

It is possible to use self-signed certs, but you need to do a bit of work on the software, to validate and approve them. I don't like doing that, as I consider it a potential security vector (you are constantly reading about development code that is compiled into release product, and subsequently leveraged by crooks).

I am working on a full-stack system. I can run the backend on my laptop, but the app won't connect to it, unless I do the self-signed workaround.

It's easier for me to just leave the backend on the hosted server. I hardly ever need to work on that part.

Perl is expressive but the code can be hard to read. In general, Python is readable because it enforces the indentation and other language design choices.

Python also got heavyweight libraries such as Numpy and Pandas which put it in the front. Perl do not have have such well known libraries as far as I know.

>a group of vocal doctors who get ignored or suppressed by the media

You make it sound so ominous. But if you look them up they have gotten a ton of coverage from all kinds of media. Pierre Kory et. al. has also published (and are still publishing) numerous articles in (non hoax/predatory) science journals. Sure they are critiqued, but that is what happens when you go against a majority opinion (disciplinary not popular).
As someone who used to work with spreadsheets extensively at a bank, I can tell you that some kind of stack/queue functionality would be a godsend.

For instance, in this mode you hit Ctrl+C five times, then the subsequent five Ctrl+V actions paste the data in FIFO order. It may not seem like much, but going in between app windows in order to grab data is a big time sink. Being able to copy items sequentially and then paste them sequentially would be a killer app in most Excel heavy office workflows. You could also add a toggle for LIFO, or maybe some keyboard shortcut / chording for toggling modes while the user is pasting.

I had actually tried to implement this as a hobby project but truthfully, my MVP was rudimentary at best because I’m inexperienced at COM+ and developing for the Windows Shell.

Edit: I’m using ‘Stack/Queue’ loosely, not in the rigid data structure term of art way.

> Each additional 9 on yield is really expensive to add.

That’s a really good point. It’s crazy to think that as we get smaller processes that not adding additional 9’s gets you relegated out of the leading edge, and possibly out of relevancy.

Black magic indeed!
The power they have over the "corporate" entity is a function of what they have to offer relative to everyone else. A few decades ago when US corps made everything and the rest of the world bought them they could demand high paying union jobs and get them. The cost of this was subsidized by buyers from around the world and cheap input material and energy corps could get due to US's geopolitical position.

That ship has sailed.

Now they have to be more in line with the rest of the world.

What the "corporation" can offer and survive or stay ahead of the pack is a function of choices available to it. Which are different now than decades ago.

This myth that Americans can demand better things that the rest of the world can't needs to die. If they want to work less, great! They can. They need to become more efficient and produce more goods with less labor. Otherwise people in other countries will not want to trade with them. That is reflected to the American worker through the set of jobs and work conditions available to them.
Oregon is fairly notorious for a racist history (significantly more so than neighboring states). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism_in_Oregon for an overview.
I don't think they are. A manual car causes a constant overhead that is relatively easy to manage, at the same time the driver has to have their attention on the road anyway. A "yes-code" software development OTOH is very expensive and will happily be swapped away if there were an equally flexible and powerful alternative.

Maybe no-code it's more like autonomous driving: "big, if true" but not quite there yet?
I’ve had the flu. Covid is way worse.

We’re already in the new normal; nobody is going back into the office if they don’t have to and that alone will force a realignment of American life. We were slowly headed that way before Covid anyway, the pandemic just made it happen. Companies requiring knowledge workers to be onsite are having huge levels of attrition because the employees have options.

One of my clients who was very eager to get back into the office and tried forcing the issue in Q3 last year has seen 40% of their engineering staff quit over the last 6 months, and are having a hard time finding replacements. They made the decision just before the holidays to switch to a remote-first model and downsize their offices. This is happening, and it’s going to crush commercial real estate.

Make sure if you have any 2FA that your family can get access to your 2FA device - e.g. get to your text messages, get to your Authenticator app.

It's no good for them to have your usernames and passwords if they still can't get in. If your phone dies with you (say you're in a plane crash), how will they complete the 2FA?
This awfully sounds like me during my high school and college years. Go to school or college, get back home, do stuff for school or college and go to my computer to research software topics that interest me. My health suffered but I learned so much. I wouldn't recommend anyone doing it because essentially you are trading your health for knowledge. Go out for a walk everyday.
No, what actually happens in practice is that the backbone connections to the outside gets disconnected (by the government) without the involvement of ISPs. Certain users who still want to access the internet has access to it via other means, sometimes even satellite connections.

We are past the stage where it can be solved by technological means. This issue is strictly political and economical.

> I did not design that particular system ... why relatively simple queries took minutes to return

The road of databases is paved with many such bodies.

Whether it is developers treating databases like some blackbox dumping ground, or designing generic "portable" schemas, or people who don't know SQL writing weird long convoluted queries.

Many people are quick to blame "the database", but 99% of the time its the fault of those who designed the schema and/or the queries that run on it.

I think your statement "UUID for PKs is not a good idea out of the box" is unfair and too broad brush. Without knowing the exact details of every bit of your environment (from database hardware upwards), its not possible to accept such a generic statement to be read as a fact.

Just wanna point out that South Korea is one of the countries where people values wealth the most than other life goals, such as family life, work success, and other spiritual values. Regarding this South Korean problem as a problem of wealth inequalty is exactly how South Korean likes to think about. I think the opposite is true: rather than being wealthier, helping people noticing and fulfilling other life goals would be the right way.
One yet-to-be-mentioned element here is the dynamic of developer preference and resistance. As systems bifurcate into relatively cookie-cutter "lego"-like technical components (the Wixification of the entire stack via cloud, frameworks and no-code), vs the heavy-lift coding to make the framework "legos" themselves, a lot of the fun development is going to go away (development with a direct end-user feedback loop and the reward of solving some real-world problem). This dynamic also eliminates a good entry point for developers (basic apps and web sites), which allow them to build the knowledge to create and love those more sophisticated re-useable legos, because they understand the true pain of solving those original problems without them. I predict a big, negative impact on the future population of developers arriving to software from "creative" entry points, like design, marketing, or finance, because the bridge will be gone. What will be left are only formally educated engineers.
Can confirm. This is my thumbrule as well.

At any point of time, have two buckets of projects to work on.

#1 projects that lets you apply what you already know and ship fast while being useful in real world (typically dayjob takes this slot)

#2 projects that lets you learn new stuff and think creatively, while affordable to fail or ship slowly (usually side projects)

Following this gives you a balance and avoids burnouts.
The electricity in this case is not "spare", just at non-global prices. Electricity generation has always been managed by turning down the generation to match the demand.

I have my own take on the issue pieced together from my own reading and work experience.

There are two kinds of burnout and they can reinforce and overlap.

The first is physical burnout. This is when your body just gives out because you don’t sleep well enough, you stop eating or exercising. The causes of this can be a poor habits, stress or being busy. It may also be because you just don’t feel like exercising.

This brings us to the second form of burnout - cognitive burnout or depression. Cognitive burnout is a result of your self concept failing. You experience set backs and obstacles which convince you that who you are right now is a failure and someone who’s actions don’t make any difference in the world. What you can achieve doesn’t seem in line with what you want to be.

This can often be because you are physically burned out. You are less effective hence reinforcing that belief. If this is the case focus first on lowering your stress levels. Stop worrying about too much of work or being fired for now. You have far more serious problems. Get your sleep exercise and diet on track.

Once you’ve done that you need to work on your self limiting beliefs. You need to understand that your failures don’t define you you can choose a new path and a new set of values. If you find that too difficult you can take the help of therapists and counselors. Reach out to your friends and discuss things with them.

Maintain a healthy lifestyle and a healthy diversity of interests and sources of self validation and meaning.

Avoid too much stress and try to have more free time for exploration.

Have friends and a community to fall back on and be open with when you have issues.

These are the ways to reduce the probability of burnout.
