The tax base in the Japanese countryside is rapidly collapsing and the public money used to prop up railways at the end of the day comes out of the same pot of taxpayer money that's used to fund schools, hospitals, etc. Personally, I'm a huge railfan, but it's still absurd to spend $3m/year to serve commuters that would easily fit in a single minibus.
Bhagavad Gita. Sure why not. India does not have enough problems. Its still not recovered from the caste system. Why not bring the strict version and fuck it up like the pre British era.

And please do not spread the lies on British for the caste system. The varna system(caste system) is the basis of the vedas(hindu religous book).

Ok, then you should offer them to buy you out at the same valuation at which you would be happy to buy them out. And if they don't want to accept that you have to walk.

Keep in mind that your loyalty to your customers and your employees can and will be used against you if you don't put your foot down and put some kind of ultimatum on the table.

Then they can choose between having money in their pocket or a large chunk of nothing at all.

Best of luck with all this!
I don’t know..: for me and my colleagues it is amazing! Our company even migrated to a almost full remote setup (only one day a week in the office). What’s not to like? No commute! Sleeping 8h every dai! No social interactions! Silence! Better office equipment (my home setup is way better than anything the office provide)! Being able to use idle time during the day to take care of quick chores freeing up time later one! Man… we are living the dream!

Yep, I am an entrepreneur and work a ton in front of the computer, I get a lot of joy from that but if I let it pull me in too much I get burned out.

My biggest sources of happiness are the following...

(email in profile if you want any details / pictures)

Reading - I love reading and I read a TON. I focus on fun books... so science fiction, fantasy, and things that just let me escape and explore worlds, characters, etc. I think my ratio last year was like 95% fun books to serious books about work related topics.

Biking and bike tours! - I normally do to two to three 2-hour bike rides during the week. They get me in the woods and are super good for my soul. I also do big bike tours, I just did one through Portugal and Spain over the old Camino routes (over a few weeks and ~1,00km). These are amazing as I get to explore a place at a slow pace, eat great food, see historical sites, and have some adventure. I stay in cheap hotels usually, and I want to try camping soon. You can do these in back roads in the USA as well and there are some great local routes if you want to start with just a two day one (awesome rail paths around DC for example).

Yoga/ST - Go to a class or get a trainer, it was so good for me mentally. I am at a place now where I do 30 to 40 min 4-5 days and it is so good for my back injury and general well being. Plus as I get older I stay fit and can keep up with my son.

What else? Cooking and learning to cook some specific dishes. Hiking and getting outdoors with my family. Family road trips too.

What I did in the past:

Ultimate Frisbee
I used to play a ton of ultimate frisbee, it is a great sport with great people. And, it is super relaxed and open to newbies. I highly recommend joining a local league (usually when done for the day they break out a keg and everyone drinks and chats). I played from highschool to my mid 30s. I stopped playing when I moved to a new place and didn't join the local scene (plus I had hurt myself and wanted to cut down on running)

Running / Trail Running
I used to run a lot, like marathons alone in the woods. I stopped running when I hurt my back and I've switched over to biking. That said, I miss it and highly recommend people try to reach a place where they are running a 5k. I still miss getting in this zone, it is like deep meditation and really shook my world when I had to give it up (disc injury).
> maintain the status quo at the expense of your middle and working class people being priced out in their own country that them and their ancestors built.

Curious what do you expect to happen to the middle and working class people if the US loses its reserve currency status? How do you think things would improve for them?
I frankly don't believe in the sincerity of any public apology anymore. The more groveling it is, the more fake. These kind of apologies always result from large amounts of external pressure leading to the threat of some kind of financial repercussion. Especially in the case of Rogan it seems to me to go against the things he believes in, and he has echoed the view before that you shouldn't apologize to the woke mob. Unfounded conspiracy theory: Spotify might have found a way to leverage the civil rights act[1] to exploit some kind of loophole in their contract in order to subdue him.

The fact that composer comes with an autoloader doesn't means that you have to autoload everything.

You can manual include, define your own extra auto loader and use interfaces to quick swap for custom implementations.

This is possibly the so-called "Connected Standby" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InstantGo), an infamous Windows anti-feature.

I believe, although I'm not 100% sure, that in addition to turning on the computer without the user consent, it also puts the machine in a strange state where it's neither on nor off.

According to the spec: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InstantGo, it's allowed to suck up to 7.5% of battery every day. As a matter of fact, my Surface device would lose more than 5% every day, and I'd find odd periods of wakeup in the sleep log (when the machine was supposedly fully shutdown).

It can be both: that the teacher helped a _gifted_ boy grow into the author we know now, and the boy wouldn't have become the author we know now without them.

Just because their other pupils didn't turn out to be legendary doesn't invalidate the teacher's contribution, which is to say, doesn't mean the joke was in good taste.

This article seems to miss the point and practical use of Smart contracts. Smart contracts offer
revolutionary new to transact gloablly. There are flaws, but the ones presented here are mostly tradeoffs. For each section:

- Reliance on external data is the same problem for any program.

- Smart contracts can be upgraded

- confidentiality is being adressed with ZKP

- to discuss about the legal status is to miss the main point of Smart Contracts.

- Any code has bugs and security flaws. The mitigation must combine traditional security and financial backstops. This is the consequence of relying on code

- Smart contracts execution is one of the most secure you can achieve. It comes with tradeoffs.
Granted, I'm just a single data point, but I've applied Voss' recommendations when negotiating purchases, salaries, and daily with my children. It's really improved my negotiation skills across the board.

In fact, negotiation is about helping people realise what's in their best interest among the options out there, rather than the options they want to be out there. But people won't hear what the available options are until they're sure you've heard what they want the available options to be.

Another good book in the same vein is How To Talk So Kids Will Listen And Listen So Kids Will Talk. It's not just about children.

...well it could also be the fundamental attribution error I mentioned earlier.

The very way this thread is unfolding reflects my initial point: From the outside it looks the same.

Telling which is which really requires looking at the specific situation, and thinking about it very deeply, and resisting reasoning from an ad-hominem basis, resisting fundamental attribution error, risisting superficial analogies, like your shoe-analogy, or "I've been in lots of situations with engineers who overcomplicate things and usually it's because they actually do overcomplicate things, so I'm just going to treat it like it always is the case that the actually do overcomplicate things".

Regarding the paragraph about percentiles: I did not write that to suggest that I'm always right, and others are always wrong. I wrote it because I think it's natural that 90th-percentile engineers would seek out 90th-percentile problems to tackle. And it's precisely that point where reasoning from "usually..." becomes invalid reasoning.

In fact the seatbelt example is the perfect example, because if you show somebody a seatbelt mechanism, their initial reaction is indeed likely to be "This is overcomplicated. Why not just use a fixed rope?"

The autoloader in composer offers several alternatives, and while all of them are namespaced per convention - nothing stops a project from deciding to write their own - something super easy in PHP but impossibly hard in other languages.

I find PHP packaging and dependency management to be painless compared to both Python/Ruby.

Based on wikipedia it appears the original definition of perceptron was associated with the specific case of a neuron with a heavy-side step function activation output (which maps aggregated weights to either 0 or 1). I've generally adhered to referring to neural networks nodes in my writings as "neurons", which I believe is a catchall for any type of activation output, although have seen others use the term "perceptron" in the same usage in modern practice.
Well said. I have been thinking like you and OP: never wanted to settled down , didn't want to be tied down to anything.

However, I still feel lost. Just too busy with worries to think about it every hour like before. I feel terrible because I feel like I have surrendered life.

At least I don't have time to think about it as much; whether it is an improvement or not, I don't know.

Ask HN: Silent Mechanical Keyboards Recommendation
I enjoy using mechanical keyboards but I don't like the sound of them. I used them in a couple of environments and would like to buy one for home.

Does anyone have any recommendation of an afordable mechanical keyboard that is very silent?

While true, on a much smaller scale I experienced the same benefit from being grandfathered in to the old Blink for Home security cameras.

You realize it’s the books you dont agree with that are most worth reading?

The capitalist should read Marx’s work. And the diehard communist should read Hayek.

To filter out a work like the Bible (or Koran, etc) because it goes against the grain of your current politics is retarding your intellectual growth, not expanding it.
How do you decide when something has enough incidents that it should be disbanded?
I find this response (which I see a lot) mystifying.

When you have a moment, read the message.

Go back to what you were doing before.

It literally takes seconds to read a message and decide “is everything on fire and I need to respond to this or can it wait until later”.

Mostly, it can wait.

If it can wait, wait. Ignore it. Go back to what you were doing.

Take your time folk, you dont have to respond to every email or every message ten seconds after reading it.

…to be fair, it is a bit rude to leave it for 4 hours before you even look to see what it was.

But hey, as long as you set expectations with your coworkers, that’s fine too.

Semver always seems utopic to me. Unless I've tested my code with a version of a library, I can't know if it works. Even if they are religiously following Semver, there is always the possibility that they have a bug that happens to affect my library. Automatically picking up some library versions based on a hope that people adhered in the same way to Semver and that they don't have any bug-level incompatibilities seems highly optimistic.

This is one of the main reasons I hate this trend of small libraries: I don't want to have a complex web of dependencies that I am the first person to ever test in this particular version combination.

Give me Apache Commons any day of the week, with a single unified version for hundreds of classes that I know for sure work together among themselves.

Tangential question:

Which goal is more difficult technically, FSD or Mars Settlement?

As in, which one just needs money and time versus true technical invention?
This is roughly PHP’s approach. In this case, Illuminate is the vendor prefix and Mail is the package name. This often but not always corresponds to the rules around the composer package name, which would be illuminate/mail in this case.

This is similar to NPM’s organisation prefix (@foo/bar).

But yeah, I’m not defending the hacky way namespaces are resolved through autoloading. I do prefer actual language support for a module system (but Ruby suffers from this problem too).
> It's way faster to learn by yourself than from someone teaching you because you can go directly to what you need to understand etc.

That is a pretty weak conjecture, I think. I can think of a ton of issues where the fastest way is almost certainly having the guidance and counsel of a great teacher.

Sure it's possible to teach yourself calculus, relativity theory, or even QED. I find it highly doubtful though that any student of Feynman's, for example, would have learned faster in self-study than from sitting in his class.
> My X13 AMD, for example, has a powerful 32-core AMD APU, 32GiB of RAM, and a superfast 1TiB NVMe SSD.

The X13 does not have a 32-core APU. The highest spec available is the 4750U with 8C/16T.

> By the way, the latest MacBook Pro comes with an Ethernet port. We loved the jokes about iDongle; how about ThinkDongle?

The latest MacBook Pro does not come with an Ethernet port. It is however very annoying that Lenovo requires a proprietary dongle to use the built-in Ethernet controller.

> The removal of the SD cards slot and Ethernet port has made recent ThinkPads a suboptimal choice for traveling photographers and some IT professionals.

The removal of the SD card reader on the X13 AMD Gen 2 is bizarre, but they can and do still offer Ethernet via a dongle.

> would you read about the update procedure after you’ve done multiple BIOS updates for the same machine already? Even if you would, would you pay much attention to the Notes section?

Yes, but I'm probably weird because I like to know what the vendor fixed and whether the firmware update might remove features that I use (shakes fist at Dell).

I own an X13 AMD Gen 2 (20XH), and I think it's a great laptop with some small caveats.

Pro:

- 1600p matte display looks amazing

- proper support for S3, very low S3 power consumption

- super quiet, I never hear the fan and the laptop is never uncomfortably hot (even doing heavy things like compiling buildroot)

- amazing performance for a laptop (5850U)

Con:

- no SD card reader (seriously, why?)

- proprietary dongle for Ethernet

- Ethernet is only GigE

- Came with MediaTek 7961 WiFi, which while supported by mainline Linux, the performance is trash (~30MBit on 802.11ac). Luckily it's only M.2 so you can replace it with something like the AX201
The modern web is very unlikely to go away. And we use the internet for everything these days. Why would I want the risk of being caught an hour from home, suddenly needing to do something that can only be done on a browser?

They'd have to rely so much on individual apps for everything, but without layers of frameworks, the apps might not exist, because it would cost more to make them, and there might be fewer programmers in the world without those frameworks making it easy.

Making non browser phones useful would require really big change to the whole mobile ecosystem, or else phones could no longer serve their present role as do-everything devices.

I only know about 3 ncurses type TUI apps(No idea if they're actually ncurses under the hood). Nano, nmtui, and a demo test app I built for developing plugins.

I don't use any of them unless I'm SSHed into things, because tech has reached the good enough point where even Electron apps are pretty snappy on an SSD.

Desktop success is pure business. Windows was a piece of shit back in the 90s, especially from Win 95, and yet, it was everywhere. Bill and the gang made sure that everyone who has a PC has Windows installed, by the countless business tactics they employed: bundling Windows with the PC, equipping schools so that they teach Windows and Office, and a myriad of other background deals and other doings with the software and hardware participants on the market. And also they didn't fight software piracy too much.

And since Windows is ubiquitous, people who want to target the PC target the Windows platform. This includes hardware makers, software shops, etc. Contributing to the effect that "everything just works" on Windows.

So for Linux to catch up on this, would mean to make the system more of a baseline for the other participants on the market. And this is not achieved on a technological level primarily. Linux is already there, for a long time now.

Interesting that’s how you are approaching it. We have found that tablets are very much more a “household” or “family” device than a personal one.
