Discipline and consistency has also been a challenge for me.

I have found it useful to embrace the humble beauty of boring things. It is easy to get on the hedonic treadmill of seeking ever-greater levels of excitement. Doing this will mean your attention gets jerked around by whatever screams the loudest. This makes consistency and accomplishment increasingly difficult to the point of overwhelm.

Two practices that you might find useful:

1. Print out a page of the sketches that Picasso did of a bull[1]. Notice that it is boring and repetitive to sketch the same bull. Notice that this is how art is made by the masters.

2. When you notice yourself seeking creativity, pick up a leaf and take five minutes just to appreciate the beauty of its curves and veins.

Finding a daily prayer to say to yourself is also good, especially on the evenings when you find yourself looking back with regret at a day you feel you wasted. Disiderata[2] is a good prayer.

I have also found the podcast of Prof. Andrew Huberman to be useful. Here he is talking about habits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wcs2PFz5q6g

> I want to make something cool and adds value to the world.

In your class there is a professor who is struggling in a world where the pandemic has made it hard to tell if they are really helping students learn. This makes it a greater struggle to maintain her mental health and sense of purpose in life. You can add value to her corner of the world by writing down what you are grateful to learn.

Given you look decidedly skilled, I am likely pointing out the obvious, but browsers can emulate different screen sizes if you use the developer tools. Of course it can't replicate the exact experience.

I liked it. I have an ultrawide and agree with the general comments about it feeling like a mobile site with unusual web interactions, but the aesthetic is lovely and it is a wonderful showcase of your skills.
But today is not that day!
And it shouldn't be. Without the relevant knowledge to make the application you shouldn't be receiving the 'go'.

I don't know how anyone can cook with these things for exactly the reasons you mention. Cooking can be chaotic with many things to keep track at once. Fingers are wet, or greasy so buttons don't work. Something overflows with just a few tiny drops the thing switches off leading to a problem with something else on the stove that requires constant stirring because now you're forced to clean your hands, dry to spillage from the stove before you can continue. Lift a heavy pot from the stove and put it back down (because it was a wee bit too hot to handle) - BAM! the fucking glass is broken. (I broke already 1 induction stove from my brother and my own Ceran this way).

WTF designed these things? Certainly not a chef!

A bialetti (moka) pot will not work because they're made from aluminum (no induction).

The whole thing upsets me so much that it's very high on my list for deciding if I can live in that country. If there is no gas cooking (most of North of Europe) un/-surprisingly the food is also terrible. Maybe there is sample-bias in my statement but I know literally nobody in my family or friends who owns a ceran/indusction stove and who is actually a great cook.

The only things better for cooking than gas are wood or coal fires. But gas is the next best natural flame.
Some of these communities have nothing but a coast!

It's probably in a Jared Diamond book somewhere about shifting expectations depending on where you grow up, some people can't imagine that people live in a place where you can't hear the sea, because they only knew that.
You are comparing a cheap electric radiant hob to a gas one.

The GP was praising an induction hob, which is the third type.
And in practise not government or central bank controlled money is not practically desirable. The gold-bugs and crypto people might think it is, but there are very good reasons why no one is using gold standard anymore. It makes modern fiscal and financial policies impossible and probably leads to massive issues for everyone.
You're bothered that movies don't seem as authoritarian as they used to be. Do you realize that's what you've said?
POTS, MCAD-like (hyperlipidemia) and inflammatory conditions are triggered by CFS/ME as well.

I am really puzzled: are we dealing with the same thing but under different names?

For reference, NSAIDs combined with high-dose vitamin therapy help to resolve those conditions in people with CFS/ME.

You need to see what happens in you data processing chain. The pipeline is only "balanced" based on what Rps you want. Throughput calculations are easier to do. Latencies are harder to predict but honestly latency calculations without sensible benchmarks are horseshit.

Back pressure is refusing to let the queue unbounded or take in more requests than slots available. That's pretty much it.

I also did AoC in Julia and it was pretty great. I did a few days in Kotlin as well and the value of good tooling is hard to overstate. This is one of my biggest problems with Julia, otherwise it's a very good language.
Bitcoin being blockchain and a consensus algorithm to append it is what enables people to use it without asking for permission.

If you ask me easy teaching of programming died with the 8 bit machines that only did basic. You had instant feedback, the system was extremely simple and it was possible to hold it all in your head.

... and as you did more complex stuff you realized on your own that basic isn't quite enough and went to look on your own for more complex environments to manage the complexity you had created.
Having crypto currency is the equivalent of having a computer.

I am not aware of anything you can do in the new "cryptonet" as long as you have zero cryptocurrency.
It's worth noting that our society has been struggling against malicious forms of political discourse for millennia.

Much progress against malicious political discourse has been made by philosophical and cultural innovations that aim to influence the behaviours of politically empowered elites, and to develop systematic approaches to 'fairness' in decision making (logicism, empiricism) as well as systems of political and personal ethics/morality (Stoicism, Utilitarianism etc..).

Today, these same values need to have a broader base within our society; most urgently within those communities who are most influential in driving technological change, but also within the wider community of those who are funding and using these technologies that have proven so effective at industrializing harmful political discourse.

Twitter Home is obviously bad and it scares me that the majority of people who use Twitter use Twitter Home as their setup.
Blockchain and crypto are related yet distinct concepts. I was lining up for a PCR test in Thailand the other day, and it was a huge mess. The lack of streamlined systems between invoicing, identity verification, etc means very long queues, people running back and forth to get their documents printed. The testing scheme is private run but I assume it needs to interface with governmental departments (i.e. Immigration and the police) to initiate quarantine in case i'm positive, and change my eligibility status for travel outside the sandbox area if i'm negative, or to arrest me if i fail to take the test within the specified time.

I thought about why so many centralizsed systems failed, or failed to be built, for streamlining processes in the real world. I think that it's because typically such systems would be built on SQL databases and backend servers that are prone to hacks and downtimes, and the APIs built by different developers often cannot integrate with one another.

What if, instead of databases and custom APIs, a blockchain with smart contracts is used? What if we can also sign documents such as receipts with hashes that can be verified off-chain and off-line? We'd have a fault-tolerant, always-available systems, and also a "unified" protocol in which other systems can interface to.

Instead of having different databases and APIs that are hard to integrate with one another, a blockchain could be the central storage and transactions handler that different systems interface to.

The PCR test system would be something along the line of:
- Booking through a smart contract, paying the PCR test fee, and obtaining a receipt signed by the contract in the form of a hash
- Upon arrival in the test center, they check the validity of this signature offline by using a public key to verify your payment.
- An identification service can keep a hashed version of your personal data on-chain. You can provide your name, DOB, place of birth etc, and this can be checked against the identification service by decoding the hashed data with a one-time key you generated

There's no DB that can be hacked or go corrupt, no BE servers that can be DDOS'd.

There are of course questions to be answered. But I see many use cases in my everyday life.
But it was a racial thing, heavily-encouraged by the losing party for years (decades actually) and with a well-documented history as such. Every U.S. Capitol police officer heard racial epithets before they were attacked on Jan 6 and racism fueled the distrust.
Well I understand you can prevent enumeration of sub-domains, but surely that's just security by obscurity.
the whole concept of fitting meaningful and thought-out things in 1xx characters is miserable imho.
A single use-case?

How about uncensorable donations? For example Wikileaks got blocked by banks and payment processors when they wrote about the war crimes the US committed.

The US could block the banks, but they could never block crypto donations.
People don't exchange public keys on the blorkchain, they use username/password to access their wallets, and these have a public key. That in itself doesn't authenticate anyone to anything, the only guarantee is that it is unique.

How do we know who is behind a hash? Because there is a server (aka. a "centralized authority") that has that information.

So how exactly is that different from using my google account to login to some webservice?

Moving outside of your comfort zone is not inherently painful. Sure it may be uncomfortable or scary but it certainly doesn't imply trauma. I interpreted OP's comments as trauma being the causative factor for change to occur, not that change results in trauma.

"Fully accepting the costs and risks needed to get there" sounds like you're preparing for a hike to the antarctic or something. Not all changes have to be this dire.

Deciding to get fit is not really a sacrifice. Rather, it is turning certain disciplines into habits. If you have enough leverage to force you to do that, there is no pain or trauma involved.

It's depressing how many open issues and PRs a project has. For some projects these numbers don't go down.
But how can Twitter work if it doesn't show you (semi-randomly) people who you don't follow? How can discovery work (and especially the other side, being found)?
I still don't get Instagram. When I use it privately it just shows me accounts I followed manually, and obvious ads. I helped with a shared account some time ago and I never understood how people found our content without explicitly searching for us.
Here's alternate versions with 24-hour long windows (not ideal), because I haven't figured out how to link timestamps in the URL parameters of satellite loops, so they are shifting forwards in time. (I'm sure someone else will figure out a better solution: I've given up).

Wouldn't the integration (or global consistency as you call it) of objects be exactly what was worth testing in that's the hard part?

Generally objects are simple enough that I can reason about them in my head. That's the whole point of encapsulating the state after all. That means tests are really less critical, since a thorough inspection should do. Between components it's MUCH harder to get any sort of coverage in your internal model, so tests that can be repeated become more useful.

I want the tests to fail if the software doesn't work. Not if some object doesn't do what it says it will in a way that doesn't matter to the system.

The hard part is exactly what I want tests to cover.
Everyone doing P2P transfer and bypassing traditional banking institutions is a powerful idea... but ultimately everyone needs to agree on a single medium of exchange, otherwise efficient market pricing is too hard.

And it's debatable whether fiat will ever whither and die. The Government will ultimately have to endorse a currency for tax purposes, and they'll always seek to control the inflationary environment so they can maintain a workable budget and keep public services afloat.

Just a century ago or so, banking was only for large corporations. Commoners and small businesses all used cash and exchanging bits of valuable metal was the norm. I mean, believe it or not, we had good reasons to abandon that simpler system in the first place. Things are better now. Markets are more efficient.
twitter's time and place has passed. Was clever and even a bit useful for a while, and like facebook, has been taken over by fake accounts, bots, scammer, shameless self-promoters and partisan hate on both sides yelling at each other

Tweeting these days is like screaming into a hurricane and hoping someone will hear it.

I've blocked twitter (and other social media) in my hosts file on my mac - can't get to it, can't follow links to it and haven't missed it a bit. May have even dropped my BP a couple of points.

I thought that crypto was supposed to be easy money transfer to absolutely anyone in the world. For nearly "free". A member of unfounded Amazon rainforest tribe could buy it and send it to for some service a Somalian farmer... For very tiny fee... Then somehow each would be able to convert it from their local currency...
Honestly, if I learned one thing about self-transformation it is that it's quite personal, so I don't want to call the author wrong per se, but the article does not reflect my experience at all.

The times when I experienced the most drastically successful change when I realized that there really is nothing stopping me from entirely changing my identity and self if I so desired.

Obviously, this only works for things actually intrinsic (you cannot hit your target weight over night, but you very much can be a person who cares about their body starting right now and never go back) but holy shit, if you actually believe in your ability to do this, it is god damn effective.

Again there are shitty strategies for this (extrinsic goals, perfectionism, diet books, goals without systems) and it requires a healthy foundation of internal self-confidence that might take half a lifetime to build, but I still don't see the kind of defeatist attitude of the article helping anyone.
Yes, but how is this different from charging a credit-card or publishing an IBAN?

The webshop exposes some way of receiving value tokens, be that USD, EUR or BTC, and has some way to tell which user transferred how many tokens.

So technically there is no difference.

The difference is, I can be pretty sure that EUR won't lose 20% of their value overnight.
I put it other way, some people embrace the Viking culture (or others with similar traits) there is nothing more inglorious that not being there for the team and not dying on the battlefield, so they are the heroes chasing burnouts and sometimes getting lucky on product launches.

Others rather take the long road, live to fight another day if at all, so they just put up with the hurdles and when that wall is approaching the locomotive, they move on to happier pastures.

Naturally there is some example missing there for those in the middle.
> There are all kinds of limitations in how exactly you are allowed to use your money.

Where are you getting that from? If the money has been earned in a legit manner and you want to spend it on a legitimate thing, who's stopping you from spending it?

Yes if your source of money isn't legal or you want to spend on something illegal, that's a different story.
The 37% number is based on political dynamics like the popularity of regional political parties and whether or not the political machinery is contesting in all parts of the country.

If you look at polling organizations that do "approval ratings" type of poll, they have been 50-70% for years. The recent West Bengal incursion is probably a good example, they went from no presence to becoming the primary opposition.
Right, yes, this too.

I recall a contract with a government department. Very much like this. And the very lengthy discussion about the simplest things.
Induction is very good, in different situations than gad. With induction, you have a reliable temperature control and can heat the whole pan uniformly, even at low temperatures. It’s very easy to let something simmer for hours or heat something just so it does not cool too much.

One of the main issue with common domestic gas stoves is that the heat is not well distributed, and good pans don’t necessarily have a great thermal conductivity. This is a problem when what you’re hearing is not liquid enough to redistribute heat by convection. Another is that you don’t control the temperature of the flame, just its size. So temperature control is always finicky, particularly at low temperatures.

So personally I go for induction most of the time, and a barbecue when I need a flame.
there are a lot of words that dont map directly onto another word.

heck, i'd argue that most abstract words are just close-ish approximations, which can be used to convey the same thing, but are also useable in different contexts with significantly changed meaning.

Take yesterday's wordle for example: tangy. few languages have something that maps onto exactly this meaning. Its still easy to translate it with a sentence, but its likely going to be more than one word. And the chosen translation will likely change significantly depending on the context the word is used in.
Not that usual but getting more common thankfully. I wrote about this here, check the graphs half way down:

Also from article: "When you no longer imagine you must transform yourself, in order to justify your existence on the planet, you’re finally able to do so, in small ways and large. The stakes are lower, now that your self-worth no longer hangs in the balance."

You think about what would improve your life instead of focusing on own flaws. Then do the baby step of improving something in your life and if it feels better, then you succeeded. You end up doing steps to change and liking the road.
You don't even need black market. On one the largest crypto exchanges in India (WazirX), P2P is the only viable option left to get money into exchange because most banks have stopped dealing with them.
