A 2560x1440 monitor running at its 1:1 native resolution. The screen real estate improvement over 1080p is substantial. You get so much more vertical space and you can easily fit 4 side by side code windows at 80 chars. At 24" or 25" the PPI is also quite nice for reading text.

I wrote up a very big monitor selection guide at https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/how-to-pick-a-good-monitor-fo..., I try to keep it up to date by supplying alternatives to the ones I've purchased. Some of the monitors I recommended were $330 when I bought them but are now $500-700, although sometimes they come back in stock at $350ish.

I made the switch around 5-6 years ago and still think it was one of the biggest upgrades for general quality of life improvements when using a computer.

The only reason I haven't gone 4k is because using one at 100% scaling at 27" or less isn't really feasible due to how small the text is and using a 36" one to be able to comfortably view it at 100% scaling feels too big for using it in a normal desk environment. Personally I'd rather have the flexibility of 2x 24-25" 2560x1440 monitors, plus 120hz / 144hz 2560x1440 monitors are very abundant if you're into games (although you can make a strong case that 120hz+ is very noticeable and useful for general usage too).
It does write its own tests, i.e. to the extent it checks the generated programs work on the data provided and discards the ones that don't. I imagine many of the coding challenges it's trained on come with a few tests as well.
> Start dating. It might be a drag and maybe embarrassing at times, but obviously not being a loser having saved up half a mil in 10 years, you will probably find someone.

I wish that was true. For me, dating became incredibly harder after 40 even though my social status has considerably increased.
>What should scare us is that we know that animal to human was not a difficult step evolutionarily.

Do we know that?
If that is not difficult, why is it so rare?
Yes. My propaganda it's better than yours.
The state, of course, does not want to fight propaganda because it is useful for it.
Amazing! So he does not have a visual user interface? This is Python, right?
Yep true,. I use the same approach to run weekly top 30 hn show newsletter.
Feeling old is basically a marketing problem. We all been sold either in movies, ads, perceptions that being old means you are down a level from ppl in their 20s, slow, wrinkly, look like “crap”. Just got to say screw the marketing, I’m making my own.
Agree about 1^NaN being strange.

Also R's cleverness with NA's is not so consistent. For example:

median(c(1,1,1,NA))

Should return 1, since no matter what value is behind NA the median is still 1. But it returns NA.
Standardisation is a commitment, and rust's stdlib is deliberately lean to allow that commitment to be very strong (long-term stability).

If in doubt, just use Tokio. It's much more widely used, has been around longer, has a history of solid engineering, didn't choose to put "std" in its name and race to 1.0 to fool people into thinking it was mature, ...
> my advice would be stop comparing yourself to others. Older or younger, married or single, successful or not, fit or fat

100% agreed.

Unfortunately we live in bodies that were hardwired to live in a hierarchical tribe; our early life is also a lot of rat racing. Just step aside from that, and know this: you are special in your own way. There’s nobody that’s just like you.

Also to be clear, if you had accomplished more you would probably feel like that wasn’t good enough either. Accomplishments just don’t satisfy inner needs unless they’re something you genuinely deeply care about (and not just to measure up in society’s totem pole).
You say it like parents choose the easy explanation. But what if for some people the meaning of their life is to have kids? For sure parenting gives your life _a_ meaning. But I doubt people choose to have kids for that.

I think the choose of having kissy it’s more a mix of ambition, societal conventions and natural instinct.
ZSA's moonlander[0] or their planck-ez[1] are a couple of examples. Where standard keyboards have staggered rows, the planck-ez is "ortholinear", and the moonlander has staggered columns. (I have seen designs which are symmetric and retain staggered rows, too).

Though I think older keyboards in this category would be like the Maltron, Kinesis Advantage. And also recently, there's been a surge in custom mechanical keyboard designs, like the Sofle keyboard[2].

The video looks interesting, haven't seen joysticks/controllers being used in such a fashion. What kind of devices (brands/models) do you use if you don't mind sharing?

Whenever starting Linux I see a statement like “applying cpu microcodes”. So it seems the pathway to write microcodes is well known. I also recall some windows app circulating in the Hackintosh community to patch your Intel cpu to make it behave as macOS expects in some cases.

What is new about this?
Can you see the problem at all when Docker is NOT involved?
I prefer Tailscale or Zerotier for that purpose. Tailscale for application where Layer 3 is sufficient and Zerotier where I want Layer 2 communication (think of it as an internet-wide network switch).
Sometimes I think peoples’ self-awareness (internal world, whatever you want to call it) makes them think they’re smarter or more competent than they are. My partner has a better memory than me and she will continually point out cases where I make the exact same comment when responding to similar situations across time (driving past a mural on the road, walking past the same flower bed, etc.) I really do feel like a program responding to stimuli sometimes. And sure I have a rich internal world or whatever, but that isn’t so easy to discern from my external behavior. I think as I grow older the magic dissipates a bit and I can see how really, humans aren’t that unique and incredible. What’s incredible is that all this random faffing around at scale without much individual brilliance leads to the wonders of society. But we could divine that by looking at a termite mound.

All of which is to say that memorization as you describe it seems like a plausible path to AGI, and humans don’t deal with weird inputs well either. It’s not like we are trying to make the ultimate single intelligence that rules humanity (although that may eventually come to pass). But something of roughly human competence certainly seems achievable.
I liked the apt reference to the “blue pencil”, “used specifically because it will not show in some lithographic or photographic reproduction processes.” (wikipedia)
I think holding governments accountable is a pretty core job of news outlets. And the use of controversial kinds of warrants is newsworthy.
"people" - lol
My favorite way to implement and simply/safely self host a web comment system is to log all POSTs that include a string like, /@say/ in the URL to a unique log file on disk. This txt file is then the comments and included via server side includes for minimal attack surface with just enough features to do what's needed. This means you have to actually control the webserver but in this context I think that's reasonable.
A typical case of the governing body decides one thing but in practice the "since-always" used convention is still preferred I guess? At least this is my experience with dealing with reqs from customers within aviation.
I assume some government censorship feed has gone wrong. Like CleanFeed or something that has incorrectly blacklisted domains or such.

YMMV
Aside from a lot of the other good advice on this thread I just wanted to remind the OP and anyone else feeling similarly right now to not forget about the covid situation. The last two years have not been normal. Social rhythms, relationships, work ... a lot of things have been disrupted. A degree of malaise is an incredibly common response.

Nothing in my post indicates what to do if this is your situation. But I think am accurate problem statement is a starting place to most good solutions in life, and the pandemic has become so much a part of like that it's easy to forget just how disruptive it has been to the normal trajectory of many of our lives.
Two separate devices. I have the Awair air quality monitor and a Coway air purifier.
I had a very similar experience around 37. My latest startup had crashed, and I sort of woke up to the realisation that (for the first time) not all paths were open to me anymore.

To some extent I think this is just part of the natural cycle of life: the mid life crisis if you will. Looking back I think some of the feelings of regret and rumination on the "road not taken" was more or less symptoms of depression / acute crisis. That part will pass. Exercise helps.

For me it was also a lot about questioning the value system I had been born into and finding my own. And I don't mean just the high and mighty (political) values that we talk a lot about, but the really low level stuff we're often unaware of. If I had $500k in the bank and was in this situation I'd definitely try to find a good therapist (the freudian type - not KBT), and talk about your attitude to work, self-esteem, relationships and values.

For me this was a period of pretty dramatic and profound change. I have a feeling you could have it easier. If so I'd also consider putting some effort into finding a partner, and perhaps having children. But health comes first!
Maybe peering ? Vodafone's internet was always crappy.
First of all, every filesystem has timestamps and they've got to be set to some value.

Second of all, it's useful to have some sort of version marker that lets you tell at a glance if two copies of the software are the same, or what code was running when that log file was created. Build timestamps are a classic way of doing this in a version-control-system-independent way, without advancing the 'headline' version number for every developer's test builds.

And of course, if you include things like debug symbols it's useful to be able to tell if the source files on disk have changed since the build took place, as the line numbers could be all off.

Alternatives include using a git commit hash; having a separate build pipeline for public release versions then not worrying if developers' builds aren't reproducible; and just being careful with developers' test builds.

Do you have a full-time job? That would take most of my evenings if I decided to do it.
How did your startups fail?
Deploying an omicron-specific vaccine without any safety trials or testing seems likely to be safer than variolation using live omicron virus to intentionally infect millions (moreover, expecting those millions to actually self isolate is unrealistic - a significant percentage of them would go out to stores or social events and spread the virus more rapidly to seniors)

Our health authorities are too scared of making mistakes to do either though, so it seems purely hypothetical either way.

The thing to keep in mind is that you will always feel too old for something. When you're 18 you're too old to play, when you're 25 you're too old to party like a teenager, etc. But there's always something fun you can do at your age, and 35 is young. You can definitely go to festivals, you can travel, live in hostels, go surfing, snowboarding whatever.

But it's understandable that you're less excited about things, at 35 you're sort of programmed to have a young family. As you age that gets increasingly important. I still love extreme sports, travelling etc but compared to my kids it's just laughably pointless.

So use your financial freedom and take a year to get in great shape mentally and physically, train, travel, read and socialise. At the end of that you'll have no trouble getting hitched, and to be honest that's what matters, no matter what "voluntary" singles will tell you.

I know I will be downvoted for this but it's just the truth. I sacrifice my score in order to help you...

Feel free to email me btw if you want to talk about it, I've gone through very similar periods and know what it's like.
We can add new rules to existing network tags(security groups). However, Adding new network tags to node pool require node-pool replacement at this time. That's pretty wierd.

Why not also a warrant to Apple since there are more Apple users in US AFAIK? Or there was such a warrant but the article omitted Apple.
you're not wrong that time is running out, i'm 35 too

It's your choice to think about your age, personally I just do whatever I want

35 is not too old to go to bars, there are tons of bars and clubs that specifically cater to people in their 30s

but really in my opinion you are good to go out as long as your health permits you to
If something is urgent they should call me. Messages depend on the person. But emails are well within the category of reading whenever I have time, every other day or so. If people's devices beep every time anyone sends them an email, that's their choice.

Which is not to say that a priority indication can't be helpful. Telegram has "send without sound" as an option if you long press the message button, which I use at night with my mom because I know she usually leaves sound on 24/7 (apparently other, "normal" people don't message after midnight!).

Email has this system too but the other way around (priority flag) and I've received about a dozen high-priority emails, mostly while interning at a bigcorp. They could literally all have been deleted unseen. People set the flag when they think you'll otherwise not read it, it's that level of useless.

There's also a low-priority flag that I've seen used maybe once ever. You could start using that if you're worried someone has standard emails set to audio notifications.
How did you decide which brand to get and at what strength? I wear glasses every day (nearsighted) and have been thinking about getting reading glasses for work but the ones I tried at the grocery store were way too strong.

I somewhat recently upgraded to a larger monitor and have scaled up my fonts but I still feel like I am straining a bit.
So a country may not defend itselve in danger? Russia has already been in war since 2014 within close proximity by invading Ukraine! That's entirely Russia's fault.

You do know that the USSR fell and a lot of those ex-ussr countries preferred the "west" and wanted to part ways from USSR / Russia? A lot of them did fyi. And other countries are having that moment.

They are free to choose what they want for their future. But i don't think many people want to replicate Russia's system.

The last 20 years of more Russia repeatedly threatened and checked responses of many countries to replicate what could/would happen in case of war. And I'm not even talking about the numerous cyber attacks yet.

The one trying to escalate things is obviously the one amassing 100 k. Troops next to their neighbor.

It's not our fault that Russia didn't foresee countries didn't want anything to do with them anymore. They don't have much to offer either except military assistance and oil/gas.

Or that they are noticing increased civilian unrest with their last USSR "autoritarian friends" where they had to step in. ( Belarus, Kazachstan).

Russia is trying to delay the inevitable.

Countries are turning away of oil/gas and Russia won't have the money anymore to maintain their expensive army ( 6% of GDP ). He literally hastened their demise because of his threats to everyone. his biggest and most lucrative clients are running away whenever possible.

Which is also entirely his fault.

I think it depends on what’s meant by “deep learning”. If you mean the latest multi-billion parameter transformer architecture trained on narrow domain data then yeah, you’re probably right. If you mean large networks of simple computational units optimized by gradient descent on parallel hardware, why not?
Not thinking about waifus and watching children's cartoons for a start.

I'd suggest taking up a hobby or at the very least a DIY project that involves outdoors and try to meet people.

Taking about money either serves to distance or brag (going on social norms from across the pond at least) so I'd say it's better to say you consider yourself your comfortable to well off unless you enjoy people trying to get a piece of it or others thinking your some sort of show off...

Everyone is convinced that bad things only happen to them, and it's a conspiracy to keep them down - while at the same time, applying the same controls to others that they may disagree with....

There are reasons for _everyone_ to be concerned about geofence warrants. It skates dangerously close to restricting freedom of association. We all know that there are bad actors - and often the chance to use extremists to paint everyone of a particular religion, sex or ideology with the tar brush of the extremists.

We don't know - for example - how many people were returned here. Was it 2 devices? 200 devices? 2000 devices? If there was a parade of people in front of the building? If there was just the arson suspects? Maybe only police ones?
We have a lot in common me and you! I am 37 now! the difference is I have married few years ago and a year and a half ago I had a daughter. The last part changed my life completely made me see life in a different way and appreciate life differently. It's totally fine sometimes to feel this feeling you just felt, I personally think it is a calling to do something different! you have a good amount of saving which I personally don't have! maybe try something totally different than your old jobs? open your own small bakery? does not have to be super profitable just something that can get you going? the small things in life are overlooked most of the time but interacting with others, seeing them, being part of their daily lives is super awesome! my advice to you is to explore different things with a new mindset. You are not old man! in my own personal opinion no one who is highly functional on the cognitive level is old! plus once you are REALLY that old then it's new experience all over again :) Best of luck to you.
The way this is written is obviously intended to evoke a specific feeling and convey a single opinion. I am tired of being manipulated for ad revenue.
That's a good example. My current favorite example would be the UK, and the so-called democratic British government. The democratic façade has fallen away spectacularly over the last few years. There is no way to hold anyone to account when there is corruption at the top. They don't even need to hide it anymore.

The borders are gerrymandered, fair voting is hamstrung by FPTP, funding is withheld from constituencies where the MP doesn't tow the party line, and both public money and foreign bribes go into the pockets of the elite few. Clearly a well functioning democracy, a pillar of the West, where government officials may place themselves above the law. Lying in Parliament? Free pass. Calling out lying in Parliament? Ejected from the discourse.

But at least Sir Boris led an inquiry into Sir Boris and found Sir Boris free of guilt.

I really don't think it's so crazy to think that the adequate application of crypto can lead to well-functioning democracies for precisely this reason; we can have real accountability.
The underlying issue here is that there's an escape valve of law enforcement being ineffective enough to allow people to form organized resistance if things get too bad. With perfect enforcement, there would be no way to ever overthrow a dictatorship, so we don't want perfect enforcement, even though it's not a dictatorship just yet.

Also, perfect enforcement is bad for society. Imagine where gay rights would be if we had perfect enforcement back when being gay was illegal.
The 10% is not guaranteed. But it is average over several years. Although I prefer to go for global index funds which is more like 7% and less risky.
I think it's because 30s is where a lot of people first feel age with concessions. It's right when you first feel that you heal slower, have to watch your joints more, etc. The stark contrast from your 20s when you feel progressively more bullet proof each year.

Or - that's been my experience atleast.
A vertical mouse did amazing things for my wrist.
> But Apple's premium will probably be upwards of $1000

Yes, for sure. And I think that's a part of the reason they haven't released a VR headset yet. Give it a few years (maybe 5?) and there will be enough entertainment value and other utlity from a headset, especially if the ergonomics get better, which they will.
Totally agreed. My main keyboard and macropad are both QMK programmable.

Hi! I love the ideia of an off-grid house. If you didn't get that permit for urban land ("you can build a house here") then the whole thing has no sanitation, electricity or water connected to the main supply right? And are we still allowed to place a building, even in those conditions, in an agricultural land?
Re the addendum: No, mailbox.org does not support own keys.
I'm into my sixth decade, and I will agree with you that it's about detail. I find more and more rabbit holes to go down that are just fascinating. I make ice cream, but how can I make really good ice cream? What are the pros and cons of regular switches vs. leaf switches for the retro arcade controller I want to build? Why does putting a bunch of wood mulch around my fruit trees do so much to improve the soil ecology? The list goes on. I am never bored.

I think many people take the availability of information we have at our fingertips today for granted. It wasn't always this way. Dig into it, learn something, rinse and repeat.
Yes. This is what Taiichi Ohno would call "standard work": well-defined processes intended to be executed literally, and evolved with and by the people who perform the execution.

Standard work is a great source of things to automate, but automation is not a replacement for it.
People think more of what we already have is going to go farther. 1 horse to the carriage gets you to the market. 2 horses to the next village. 4 to town and 6 cross states. Given enough horses we should reach the moon, right?

With absolutely no evidence (as none can be had about the future) I believe that AI can be reached with computers and programming languages as different from the current ones as rockets are to horses.
The approach reminds me more of junior devs who have no interest in fully understanding the code/problem and they just make semi-random changes to the code until the compiler is happy/the test is green.
Could a case be made against using x86 based on it’s fragility from a security perspective? I imagine since ARM is not fully closed (EDIT: ARM is not oss) they don’t have this problem, although I suppose there’s nothing stopping Apple from “extending” the design by adding extra op codes is there? (genuine question).
