What misinformation? And was it Rogan's view or that of one of his guests?
And is it actually misinformation, or just controversial? Or you (& others) just disagree?

I mean, a lot has been said on Rogan's podcast over the years. Not all of it is likely to be correct. Even if we restrict ourselves to considering topics related to the Sars-Cov-2 epidemic, Rogan has spoken to many people, about many aspects of the situation.

I for one, quite enjoy his podcast. He speaks to many, varied very interesting and intelligent people, on range of topics. Politicians, scientists, doctors, special operators, hunters, actors, comedians, philosophers, ethicists.

But Joni Mitchell & Neil Young want Spotify to remove him from Spotify, because they disagree with something (or things) that was said on his podcast? And everyone agrees that this is a sound and reasonable thing?
The starting point is to begin taking back your personal truth. And live in that truth regardless of what people say. Apply your talents to the people that bring you happiness and meaning. You have to stop denying to yourself what really makes you happy. Sometimes, like for me, that means a long time to wait, but at least I have hope and are working towards what I want instead of away from it.

"...once you do that too often in a short period of time, the bot assumes you’re scamming them and there’s no way to escalate that."

The only way that'll be fixed will be with legislation. It's not only Uber, it's Google et al - they all into it.

Simply, they need to be halled kicking and screaming to plow some of their enormous profits back into customer servive.

Trouble is consumer protection law is decades behind where it ought to be.
I'm skeptic this is what they're populating their datacenters with. These are niche products for smaller businesses. I meant they are not powering their cloud with these products.

Apple's icloud is partly their datacenter running a mix of systems/hardware and renting out Amazon and Google cloud units, which are Intel/AMD.
This isn't a new problem with the Canadian mass media. It has been like this for a while. It has just become far more blatant within the past decade than it was in the past. CBC News has gotten particularly bad.

>> Languages like C# and Go are inherently worse for WASM because they require GC and have big runtimes they have to bring along.

People are streaming GBs of content with their devices. At startup most of the social media apps or websites are downloading tens of MBs. Users don't care or notice.

I don't know the size of the C# runtime in WASM, but the Go runtime is compressed at about 0.5 MB. Downloading this at startup is unnoticeable unless you are deep in the wild. With TinyGo (https://tinygo.org/) it's less than 50 KB (don't know the exact number, I think around 30 KB). So really small.

The weight of a runtime is not a convincing argument against C# or Go.

On the other hand, GC and runtime make development of memory safe and concurrent code much easier than C/C++/Rust. Also, performance of C# and Go is so very close to C/C++/Rust, that for most use cases they are fast enough.

Bottom line: C# or Go are not *inherently* worse for WASM. You still need to develop your app. With both C# and Go you can do it with much less mental overhead compared to C/C++/Rust. You have more time and energy to focus on your problem to solve than to manually manage memory. If you really need the absolute cutting edge performance, not WASM but native would be more appropriate anyway.
Take some classes. Sounds like that worked in the past.

>If Apple is adding back doors willy nilly why would they execute a parallel marketing campaign centered on privacy at the same time?

Are you being sarcastic here?

Because that's exactly what any big corporation focused on profits over people would do.

Exactly that.

This was more than 10 years ago. If I recall correctly, they sold the BigMac but did not advertise it (not sure if they even displayed it on the menu).
One word: Volunteer.
also, why not set the buy to a "below 2000" and sell at "above 7000". ?
I don't get it. As a pibe chorro, you should have just taken it and ran away.
So we have an idea that is false. Demonstrably false we can agree. Also, anecdotes aside for a moment overwhelmingly higher religious beliefs correlate with lower intelligence.

So, back to the anecdote, why in the case of someone being intelligent by your judgement would they believe this story, with ample evidence easily accessible to refute it?

- They've never considered it critically--ok that's possible
- They've considered it critically and decided it's true--I'd argue they either haven't or they're not
- They have developed a cognitive disconnect to protect themselves from loss of community, connection to their family, or fear of death

I am nearly certain that the last item accounts for the great majority, which is why this is such a dangerous suggestion. There is a real risk of losing your agency as an individual for of the rest of your life. I have seen this happen to many many people. I have seen many many people (literally 100s) who joined a church around when they were in their 30s just drawn in by the "community" only to become deeply disillusioned now in their 60 and 70 and feel that they had lost or wasted their youth and full of regrets. These institutions have spent thousands of years refining techniques for manipulating people, and their preferred primary prey is children and 30-somethings who feel "lost" exactly as the OP describes. They literally produce videos and training materials stating such.

I rather liked this (biphasic sleep) article's beautiful illustration (marked "2 Matthew") of the three kings snuggled up in their bed (still wearing their crowns and robes) and being spoken to in a dream by a somewhat stern-looking angel (emerging from a cloud) with a scroll and pointing finger:

Hm…I don’t know. It would explain why so many of the meetups seem to be more like sponsored “come check out our venue” type things (the wine tasting I did definitely was). There are some legitimate ones in there, but it took a long time to find my book club. I chalked it up to COVID. but maybe it was a change in “we’re not making any money” thinking…
> Imagine if I said I went to some event but unfortunately there were only x person of ethnicity. Yuck!

Maybe not on HN comments but IRL I've seen people already do that all the time. Women especially really seem to take race/ethnicity into consideration.
You are suggesting that the entemology of the word fixes the meaning of the word forever. Whereas the word itself can change meaning as time passes.

Those things we carry around were called phones, because they were invented to make phone calls. They evolved into so much more, but the thing you carry around is still called a phone.

Jobs introduced it as 3 devices in one, a phone, a music player, and an internet browser. Should he have called it iBrowse or iMusic?

This morphing of meaning is part of language - Facebook is not a book, and is mostly not face's. Should it me called something else?
What happened to all those friends you used to have? Look them up, if any are nearby hit them up and see if they want to catch up.

Regarding going the hobby path. Dude, sports. Yes things like dance are going to have an abundance of weirdo singles trying to mix with the opposite sex in a planned environment. Join a pub league rugby team or something. I guarantee there would be people at that party above you who met through sports.

Also, you are still allowed to have housemates as a professional in his 30s. I'd be looking at that well before something as drastic as a career change.

Dominos is interesting to me as a product because it’s the result of decades of bean counters trying to strip everything good away from a product while still trying to make it appealing. Nowadays the technology itself seems to me like it’s more of a product than the pizza.
If you earn X and your bills are say 80% of X then you can not afford to risk putting your money in any cryptocurrency because if it drops by more than 20% then you can not afford to pay your bills and you might wind up without electricity or not even being able to pay your rent. This is an argument for having limits on brokerages for you being already wealthy because if you are not then there's a big chance you will wind up on the streets and that's bad for society.
I find it weird that many cultures have a noon time or afternoon time siesta -- but for some reason the Anglophone cultures don't. Something about the Protestant work ethic? (I know these are in theory secular societies, but the cultural relics remain)

When I was teaching at one of the local SEA universities they had an entire room for lecturers to sleep during the 1.5 hour lunch break. It had double bunk beds maybe 30 or so. It was well used from 12pm to 1:30pm.

I'll tell you -- this was magic. Even just being able to sleep for 30 minutes (after getting lunch and catching up on my phone) between classes was rejuvenating.

I never had that 2pm "nod off", which I did when working in Western style jobs...

My point being this is a kind of bi-phasic sleep.
If this became a cultural norm today, it would immediately become working hours for a lot of people who would be better off sleeping. If we're going to shift hours around in a large-scale cultural move, I'd prefer siesta.
I know a number of people outside of software engineering/tech that are going through this. Since COVID, many people have learned (the hard way) that community is important.

Try meetups (even meetup.com). It only takes one person you meet to stick and become a friend, and that's 1000x better than where you started. Keep doing it, go to random meetups and things where there will be other people open to making friends. You don't need to actually be interested in whatever the activity is (though many meetups are at bars), it's just an excuse to meet people, just like college was.

Try standup comedy clubs/shows (the small ones). These people are usually friendly, and people usually stick around to chat afterwards. You can meet people easily this way.

Eventually you or someone you meet will ask to do another activity together (maybe food, maybe golfing, who knows). You could even make it a regular thing over time. This kind of thing builds the sense of community you're looking for.

Wanna feel good tomorrow? Go to a few stores (or similar) and make small talk with some cashiers. Try your best to engage and be nice. You may not meet a friend this way, but you'll connect with others in your community around you, which will certainly help.
Corporate approval is optional and the company would have to waive it to operate in the model you describe. The friction you describe is at the will of the company. They can allow free transfer now they choose not to.

The issues you describe are intentional encumbrances on the part of the company and corporate attorneys which they could stop at any time. You haven’t described how this model would change their minds. Changing their minds is the thing holding back what you desire not the technical limitations.

Within the last couple years, last year especially, there's been a massive push by one the Ada companies, AdaCore, to releasing open source and proselytizing the language. That company contributes back to the GCC front-end for Ada called GNAT. They're also helping support and develop Ada's new package manager, called Alire.

It's a small, but interesting community. It has the feel of some of the newer programming language communities, but is an already mature language that's getting its tooling being massively contemporized since there's commercial money and full-time employees behind it.
I love to have some insights as well, can you point me in the right direction?
> then, you can show off your Woodstock nft to your grandkids like how people save ticket stubs now

You could do this with your emailed receipt if you wanted.

You could also just take photos of yourself at the event instead. That would probably mean a lot more to your grandkids.

>only in 30s

Can't agree with this more. Training has really helped me put my emotions in check, and after a workout everything seems more clear. I have ended up going every day, and pretty much feel like a car hit me every day, but I have made so many friends just by having CrossFit as a common activity.

The other day, they even organized a hiking activity in the Parnitha mountains outside of Athens, and it felt like an adventure. It's a great community to be part of. My trainer even jokes I should be paying him a extra therapist fee.

Not to mention I met my, probably, future wife at the gym :)
Potatoes are their own worst enemy in a way since they are delicious fried in high temperature oil which is not super healthy for a number of reasons. But yes I agree with you in general, I hear you can technically survive on potatoes and butter.
I imagine the incentive of fixing it is [inversely] correlated with how eager they are to receive more messages.
Came here to say this. The other point I would add, and this gets churchy but it is also the wisdom of the ages “to find your life you have to lose it” - the great thing about a church is you are instantly plugged into a community of service that makes it easy to lose your life for the sake of others
> Am I missing something?

There’s numerous videos pouring in of individuals going into local businesses to harass and threaten employees while flaunting they aren’t wearing masks.

These individuals likely don’t represent the majority. But it doesn’t feel like just a few bad apples.
>Still, I'm only in my 30s, and it feels like my life is pretty much done

I feel this way and I'm very happy about it. I've lived my youth and now it's my turn to ensure future generations, especially my children, have the same opportunity.
While there may not be a causal relationship between a dev career and social isolation, I feel they are orthogonal. Unlike a product manager or a sales person, there is not as much incentive to build a social circle, and to acquire the skills that let you build a social circle wherever you go. So your circle-building skills slowly atrophy, unless you are a social animal and put in extra-effort in your own time.

As many people have pointed out, building a social circle takes a lot of time, effort, and most importantly skill. Building one in college is easy because when you have bunch of young people (united by alcohol) in the same place with roughly the same mission, circles form automatically. Out in the real world, now with the added drama of the pandemic and all the social fallout, the bar is much higher.

At least OP had a good group in college and had some fun times. I shudder to think of the current and next few graduating classes who have to endure "online learning" and a very reduced social circle. I have no clue what that is going to lead to.
I didn't mind 'em. I don't get why they were so hated. Maybe I don't use mice the right way.
We are a now in a age where people are talking about building their own chips and phones because they don’t trust the commercial products to be secure. I have a feeling the Apple marketing org is less than thrilled about recent news. Also Google no doubt is looking for ways to capitalize on this. They already have the reputation of having security geniuses on par with the NGO group on their payroll
The conspiracy talk started around the end of FDR's first 100 days in office (mid-June 1933), during which he accomplished an awful lot (mostly later tossed out by the Supreme Court), and the malefactors of great wealth had reason to be frightened.

FDR was scheduled to address the
American Legion (mostly WW1 veterans), an organization supported by conservative money and in the middle of most of the conspiracy allegations, at its convention at the end of September and start of October of 1933. An early draft of his remarks had him asking the veterans to serve as paramilitary reserve police to maintain civil order in the face of a collapsing economy. But he killed the whole idea, pivoting to be a much kinder and gentler middle-of-the-road kind of a guy. He was hitting his stride with no reasons to be tyrranical.
> IPv4 but with 8 octets then adoption would have been a lot faster.
> You can’t upgrade to IPv6 you have to port your code to IPv6.

There is no physical way to increase the address space without requiring code changes. People having making the same complaint for 20 years and it's even more hollow now then it was then.

99% of the time, you will use your OS standard library functions and completely ignore the networking underneath. Literally, all the libraries will transparently handle IPv4 or IPv6 with no problem.

If you're in the 1% of software that has coding in some implicit assumption of field size for IPv4 then you are the 2020 equivalent of the Y2K problem. Grow your field sizes, fix your regexes, and use the platform support as much as possible.

Finally, you can literally just turn on IPv6. Everything will work just fine. IPv6 has private addresses, you can do all the dumb stuff from IPv4 in v6. Unsurprisingly though, most major vendors don't want to spend a lot of energy supporting those hacks.
I think it has to do with temperatures. In some countries it's very hot at noon so working is difficult. Especially with air conditioning.
Agree. Crossfit benefits IMO:

The Crossfit WODs, a very physically intense workout, at the end everyone usually has a runners high and is sort of relaxed, has a similar effect on me like drinking with others.

The pain shared from fighting through grueling WODs with others creates great bonds/cameraderie, similar to those marches in the military service. Go through a few hero wods together and you develop great trust.

Endless small talk possibility with other crossfitters. Everyone loves to enthusiastically chat about exercises, the last few wods, etc. And immediate connection, like if u studied at the same university.

Last point applies to other sports as well, but IMO, it's a lot stronger with crossfit.
I fled to New Orleans from Portland after two and a half years of that shit and never looked back.
"they're all full of lonely developers and other socially awkward people - short guys looking for girlfriends, unattractive/aging women looking for husbands, etc."

Welcome to becoming a mature adult in the real world! It's true, as people age they become gringey dorks. And you may be surprised... It happens even to people who don't work in tech. I participate in a few communities that have little or nothing to do with tech, and they're still filled with awkward characters searching for connection too.

Sure, there are people in their 30's still partying and leading the lifestyles of the young and beautiful. But, maybe those people are still doing that because they haven't grown much since their early 20's. And if you haven't found focus in life beyond "being cool" and drinking and socializing by the time you're in your mid 40's, that lifestyle starts to be a pretty cringey look of its own.

Maturing emotionally means becoming more guarded and picky. You and the people around you have lived in the world, become invested in your own ways of living, and taken damage from the ups and downs of life. It's never again going to be as easy as being 20 something in a room full of 20-somethings who all want to meet each other right now.

But, there's also the chance for connection beyond what's possible at a party with "laughing, kicking and screaming" full of people who closely match your demographic. Ask people what their lives are about, people usually like talking about themselves. You'll get them to open up and you'll learn new things. Let things take time and be willing to let friendships form on a timescale more like months or years rather than days or weeks.

Not so much to your original point, but you mentioned "quitting the career"... If you're sick of tech, start on your second career. Even if you're not super confident, pick something that seems doable and pursue it. It will be exciting and rewarding and you will re-experience the feeling of joyous surprise you once felt when learning tech. You have time for this and can afford this easily since you're making tech job money and it sounds like you have time for weekend/evening/intensive classes. And you will meet a new batch of people. I've been in a program where I've taken a number of classes with the same group, and it's been a great way to get to know some new friends.

No reason to be scared because you don't have to "quit the career". Tech will take you back if your other thing doesn't work. You can learn a new thing and switch back and forth. Or you can do both part time.
I'd rather have a capability-based distributed system that is agnostic about persistence as long as capabilities are, well, capabilities.

A friend of mine is working on Syndicate[0], and I find it interesting. Not really an OS metaphor; more like distributed, polyglot actors with shared memory secured via capabilities. I think of it sort of like the OSI model's missing session layer.

Also, if I were proposing a distributed system to my boss, I'd probably prefer a reference to "Syndicate" over "Cthulu."

I generally agree with the “get over yourself” comment but would like to offer a different perspective. The ending suggestion here and in many other comments is “work on yourself more” which I disagree with as the primary path to take. Instead, work on others more.

Try to make the world around you a better place. Maybe you want to tutor below grade-level kids, tutor high performing kids, help with the homeless challenge in your community, volunteer with the humane society, volunteer with hospice, do some environmental projects, help out with a niche historical society, volunteer at the zoo, etc. The point being, do something (in meat space) for your community that you connect with, and you will come into contact with like-minded people who may or may not be “cool”, but they at least want to help out the world around them too. There’s that old saying “it is better to give than to receive.” If you aren’t already, give that a try. :)

My grandfather was an avid volunteer, far more busy in retirement than most working people. My dad once lamented in a family gathering that he (my dad) didn’t want to retire for fear of becoming bored. My grandfather just said in his special way that is hard to convey, “there’s a lot of good organizations that could use some help.”

All the best to you and your search!
