> that doesn't make them illegitimate.

neither is it illegitimate to continue to boycott something you think is likely still causing harm but is now just being quiet about it.

> After he had his conversion and became Paul the Apostle, would you really continue to boycott him?

Given I don't believe in any of his writings, nor that the church he helped bring into being is a force for good, sure, why not? I'm boycotting him right now.

But all of this is a sideshow - the hypocrisy is the point.
Good god, not me.

I feel guilty saying that the pandemic has changed my life for the better in so many ways. Being fully remote has given me an autonomy over my life which has led to a level of happiness I've never known before. Having the details of my physical existence abstracted away from how I earn a living has been the greatest thing to ever happen to me. It allowed me to pursue so many things in life I had put off like building a family and friendships and focusing my life around things that really matter. I can't imagine ever going back to the way things were before, and I spend time literally every single day thinking about how lucky and fortunate I am to be in this position.
You won't find liberals questioning election outcomes that were determined by a margin of thousands of votes with a clear paper trail. The 2000 election in Florida, which you're probably thinking of, involved just a few hundred votes where the intent of the voter wasn't super clear (hence the "hanging chads" brouhaha); and once the election outcome was finally determined, liberals let things go. While they disagreed with the procedure and were upset about the outcome for a while, they didn't let it define their party for the next 4+ years.
Unpopular opinion, but I was not a big fan. It was mainly because my house lacked a dedicated, private office where I could work, compared to my real office.

My living space isn’t that big, but I’ve got a great office at the job. Big desk, big screens, giant whiteboard, and it’s just around the corner, so commute is minimal.
Remote work doesn't mean stuck in your basement. Go work from Starbucks, spend a day at WeWork or other shared office space, apply as a non-degree seeking student at the nearest university and hang out on campus. The world is your oyster, provided you can keep normal business hours.
Nope, don't ever want to go back to the office, except for monthly team lunches or something.
Build Trading Algos for Any Asset
This is where a lot of my friends split on remote work, albeit for a different reason. They often moved to new cities, so they built a life entirely around work.

I went back to my hometown, so I had a large social network there already. Co-worker events intruded on my time with them.
anyone who isn't married, kids or girlfriend, as well as many people in those groups.
Thank you, this really helps.
Either or both.
I’d prefer a hybrid arrangement of 1, maybe 2 days at most to have close in-person collaborative work with a team and to get the meetings out there in person, but it’s impossible to be sick of having no commute.
I’m with you. I hated it from day 1 and still do.
I think that's a very valid point. Part of this is definitely a lack of other socialization as well.

However, so much of the rest of my life is going to be work: I'd like to enjoy the people at my workplace.
Yes, for many. VPN's, mobile connections, and commercial work connections (using a proxy) will throw off IP address checks as they report a single IP for large pool groups. You'd have to also use MAC address, but mobile have MAC address swapping ,etc.

I once wrote a tool that would capture all network requesters, and reverse fingerprint them through a connection of Operating system quirks responses to network oddities (eg: tcp fragmented frames), location, routers they connect through, etc combined with the other browser things avail.
On the face of it I'm inclined to agree, but how do you know that's what is causing America's ills? Maybe America does need a common enemy; maybe it should be one that is committing genocide right now.
> IP address is always going to be the easiest way to track a user

This is changing: Apple has rolled out Private Relay, and Chrome is planning some combination of willful IP blindness and near-path NAT.

> user agent information which browsers happily give away too much information

So is this: all the browsers are working on reducing how much they put in the UA.
My very first real career job started February 2020, so I was only in the office for about two months, which was alright. But work from home is all I really know so far. Would be nice to have an office within walking distance though
I’ve edited this to remove the snark from my initial post where I mentioned something about being much closer to the people in question than you might guess, trying to keep conversation high quality. What do you recommend I research?

Because Apple won't allow you to sideload :)

>but why won't Apple allow me to sideload if this is secure enough.

My observation is that no one would buy a computer as locked down as iOS, so Apple has been slow walking MacOS into the iOS model, not the other way around. iOS won't become more useful, MacOS will only become less useful over time.
Even before Covid, I had a job I liked, The pay was decent for my local market, I liked my coworkers. I had a decent amount of autonomy and I got to upskill quarterly.

I was still looking for another job that was fully remote. I will never work in a loud open office again.

I want an in depth study that looks at things like this, as I prefer remote work because I have a bigger desk, bigger screens, a whiteboard, more screens, a better chair, and am not seated near a large window that dumps a ton of glare on my screen (my prior job).

So for me, remote is an upgrade in terms of infrastructure. For you, it is obviously a downgrade.

I don't miss office work one bit. When I commuted to an office building in the NYC area for a company I'm sure you've heard of, all the bathroom stalls would be full at a certain point in the day.

> Work friends are never real friends anyways.

If you don't spend time together outside work (work events don't count) then you're right.

However, I've had a number of coworkers translate to friends, especially after we stopped working together.

Work friends are like any other relationship: both sides have to work to make and keep things going.
I think this would be really good for me.
Okay, pick anyone else then. Someone who definitely did something bad enough to be boycott-worthy, but later completely turned over a new leaf. Would you really never forgive them?
I've been working remote for over a decade now - the first eight of which were under non-pandemic conditions. Working from a coffee shop, from a park, from a plane or train are all eminently possible, and variation is the key to things being enjoyable.

Unfortunately the pandemic has sent middle managers mad for video calls and status updates, which has made things generally less productive.
I never said it wasn't a large set.
I'm also considering pursuing the independent consultant route and bootstrapping into a firm would be my end goal.

Would you mind sharing what the steps in that process were for you?
Legally they are the same action, and they obviously violate the same laws. Specifically, they violate the prohibition on restricting someone's freedom to engage in the mass-production of speech, which is known as "freedom of the press". What are you trying to say with the public figure link?
If you can find a way to teach that without violating the Establishment Clause, sure. The only way forward I can see here would look like a comparative history of religions course, which would teach various creation stories from a neutral viewpoint. And that doesn't seem to be what those campaigning for anti-evolution education have been looking for. Curious if you've got any fresh ideas, though.
To be honest, I can never go back. Remote work is such a perk that I'm willing to quit and move jobs solely to maintain it.
You'd imagine World War 1 had a pretty significant impact on basically everything though.
4K @ 32" is perfection for me, I wouldn't go any larger or smaller with 4K. You get four 1080p screens worth in a single panel, without any virtual scaling going on at all.

I have two identical work setups in different rooms. Different brand monitors, but both mounted to 13" ErgoTron LX (VESA robot arms), bolted to motorized adjustable desks (solid core doors for desk tops, Amazon-style).

My first screen is a Dell U-Series 32" (U3219Q) and it's been fabulous for two years now. Can't recommend it enough.

My second screen is an Acer 31.5" Nitro XV2 (XV322QK) which can put out 144hz. It runs at 60 Hz with my XPS 15 plugged in via USB-C, but if I hook a PS5 into it can get 120hz.
The end result is waste heat. Capturing it would be great, but a battery is needed for that. Capacitors are still not up to the task for that amount of energy.
The programmers at stackoverflow must be amazing if they fix it with stackoverflow offline
Yep, kids don't have time to be kids anymore, even compared to generations 20, 30 years ago (back then, when school was over (1pm, maybe 2pm max), you were done with school, and did kid stuff.... now, with parents pushing their kids into extracurricular activities and all that stuff, their lives suck a lot more.

On the other hand, imagine being a first grader, unable to write or read, just coming from kindergarten, where most of the time was play-time, and due to something, you can't comprehend, you're put infront of a laptop with Zoom turned on, and your parents in a huge financial crisis suddently.
Wow!

I read a paper a while back that suggested the brain cortex is modular, and each module is constantly+independently comparing sensory input to expectations (arxiv.org/pdf/1810.09084.pdf).

From personal experience, when there's a lot of stimuli competing for my attention, most of it gets ignored or handled subconsciously. The flow of consciousness has fuzzy boundaries.
There are two parts to this 1) willingness to challenge the status quo 2) intellectual humility enough to seek to understand why the status quo exists.

There is some conflation of these two concepts in the comment threads.
Did they even look at the financials? While I’m not a fan of Facebook the Meta business is very profitable. Markets overreact in the short term.

Yeah - I have been pretty slack with my social life over the past two years with the pandemic and a lot of friends moving away as well.

But I still wouldn't trade remote work for the world. I can get a climb in at my local gym in the morning and a swim in the afternoon - with plenty of time left to cook n clean and some quality time with the missus.

edit - also my home desktop is just awesome... 12k of total pixels across three monitors... An awesome omnidesk standing desk... can eat from the fridge the food that I need n want. Aint no office offering me this...

Am hoping with the Omicron abating can finally get out a bit more and re-establishing some connections.
Not really. Paradox of tolerance means not tolerating intolerance. The word “inherent” makes it wrong, though. There’s nothing inherent about conservatism that is anti-democratic.
People used to have offices. Not anymore. You'll be lucky to have a cubicle. You'll more likely work in an OpenOffice plan. Some unlucky ones will probably learn the term "hot desking". Ffs stop this nonsense and just let me work from home.
What I love about this story is the lack of pr from the company itself. It seems like they just put their heads down and got to work, and they delivered in spades. Meanwhile an EA or an Activision will put out three times as many press releases about their fixes as they will actual fixes, if they release any real fixes at all. A dozen posts saying “we hear you” and then changes that make it seem like they didn’t listen at all.
I am. Working from home in Hong Kong is like being that guy from the movie Old Boy, who's held at a tiny hotel room for 15 years.
> a fairly held election is one in which the votes can be explicitly audited by any of the candidates

You're confusing a verification procedure with an outcome. A fairly held election -- i.e., the outcome -- is simply one in which the pollsters and voters adhered to all the rules. And it is possible for an election to be fairly held that is not auditable. Sure, it might make people feel better post hoc about whether it was fair, but that doesn't mean that an unauditable election cannot be fairly held.

We've largely had non-auditable elections throughout our nation's history, and we've survived reasonably well thus far as a democracy. If there were past evidence of fraud that might be serious enough to change the outcome of an election, then the case for strict auditing would be much stronger. But to date, compelling evidence of fraud has never appeared.

To comment on the podcast itself, I found it decently interesting but unsatisfying because the guest didn't go deeper into Thiel's thinking and ecosystem.

As someone who is interested enough in Thiel to buy a Rene Girard book, too much of this episode is 'intro' stuff.
I've seen the term mis-characterized, for lack of a better word. I've seen European libertarian, eastern (US) libertarian, southern (US) libertarian people describe their beliefs all in vastly different ways. Some I'd characterize as heavily socialist, some heavily.... right, some heavily left, some just as a "alternative" to two main US parties.
I love remote work, but the timing of this particular pandemic has just sucked. Two small kids at home, with my wife and I trying to share parenting and part time work - throw WFH into the mix and everything kind of falls apart.

I just changed my preference for dark mode and got a different fingerprint. If it's not resilient to modest changes, it's not really that helpful at tracking anyone. There are already plugins to randomize some header data, so this type of thing has been known and protected against.
Let's look at the abstract:

> We find that the closures had no detectable impact on children's school attendance in 1920, nor on their educational attainment and adult labor market outcomes in 1940.

Really ... they are trying to explain labor market attainments in 1940 - for the generation that lived through World War I, the Great Depression, sampling it in a period right in the middle of World War II.

Yet the authors feel fully qualified to assess the effects of school closings of 1918 after being confounded by all of the above.
The main effect of these drills is to cause kids stress and anxiety, but I also wonder if it's possible that there may be some marginal benefit of increasing awareness and vigilance of warning signs among the kids and teachers.

Older American folks here may remember doing nuclear attack drills in school, where the kids were told to crouch under their desk.
School is a pretty fucking awful thing to do to a human being, particularly to a child, worst of all to a bright or curious child. Everything rests on it being “for their own good.” And that seemed plausible. But if we really think we can cut two years of it with no ill effects, then the existence of those years in the “normal” plan is a moral emergency.
I joke with a friend that the future title of my memoir will be something like "How a Bat Gave me My Life" simply because work no longer has a monopoly on every hour of the weekdays. As long as I do my work, I can otherwise structure my time as I choose.

I can work extra on Tuesday and take a long lunch on Wednesday with a friend (like 3 hours) and nobody will know or care.
I can relate to this. I’ve worked remotely for 6 years but that feeling you mentioned is something I’ve felt for the past year.

I think it’s worth noting that remote work during the pandemic doesn’t really do justice to what remote work should really be. Prior to the pandemic kicking in, my remote work involved mostly working at home. But when I felt the need for change, I’d combine things like grocery shopping with a visit to a nearby cafe and I’d work for a few hours there. Other days I’d meet up with a friend I worked for and I’d work out of their office for a day and enjoy lunch with them. In the mornings I’d drop my son off at school and go to a nearby coworking space and hotdesk there. Remote work also meant that I was able to break my work day into a few segments and I could then take on things like coaching school children in some sports.

With the pandemic that all changed. Instead of taking my son to school, I sat in the room with him to help him with the laptop from time to time. Work was a few steps from there to my table. No meeting with friends to work. No cafe work. No going out to break up the day.

I’m sad that most peoples remote work experience has basically been work from home all the time instead of work on terms you are happiest with. If this had been my experience from the start I’d be kind of itching to go back and see people at the office from time to time.

With pandemic restrictions lifted for the most part, things have now gotten much better. So I’m gradually becoming “un-sick” of working remotely again.

All that to say, what you are feeling is perfectly normal. Just do understand that this pandemic edition of remote work is definitely not normal. It’s isolating and should never happen on a normal day.
Turning 40 this year.

So you sound a little depressed. Not dating may be a mistake. It may be that your unconscious mind is suggesting you start a family and plays down other activities.

To your last point; You don’t’feel’ that time is running out. Time is running out and you need to be highly aware of that fact.

Wishing you could go back in time and do things differently is everyone’s story
Effectively, yes. Remote learning is a poor substitute for in-person instruction particularly in the primary grades.
Sure, sorry if I was too harsh on bash here :) It really wasn't the right tool for the job in some parts of my use case though – parsing info out of Sources.gz using awk and sed and friends is just plain bad compared to using python-debian to get the info directly from the apt database.
If this paper is applicable today, perhaps we should reconsider whether mandatory schooling should be eliminated or reduced. After all, if it has no impact on educational or career attainment, what is its purpose except an overpriced babysitting program? If that's all it is, we can at least be honest about that and save some money.
Why would it in the first place? That title sounds like SEO fishing for “web 3” search results.
How so?

It’s a good question.

One take is that online dating is going to be bad for most people (particularly men) because with a large number of matches going by people (particularly women) are going to make a rough cut on physical attractiveness.

Almost all of the men participating in online dating are interested in hooking up or a longer term relationship but a lot of young women sign on just to get an ego boost from getting a lot of matches, then they ghost them all.

I’d guess you could build a site that tries to break down the various harmful dynamics (e.g. make guys pick at most 15% of girls, make girls pick the top 20% guys without looking at any pics, kick out girls who don’t go on any dates, …)

People might really resist any of these changes even if the changes are for their own good.

Another answer to online dating is ‘burn it down’.

I checked out a kink dating site this weekend and it was astonishingly cringe, I never thought I would go find some site that makes me feel superior but there it is.

Anyhow I am a student of love, relationships, attraction and seduction and you know you want to click on my profile and send me an email to compare notes on this.

One yes and the other no. It’s a rather complicated, self-inflicted situation. Cleaning up the mess would definitely raise the joy factor.

Yeah, I made a Google Photos album to send a link to various potential contractors to show where I want some work done on my house, and since the Photos app for Android has the relevant URI registered, the link gets opened with it instead of just the browser, and the first thing the app does is a very prominent "join" CTA. Then the next person to view the album sees them as a member, gross. It works great incognito though, where the browser doesn't hand off links to any apps regardless of URI registration.

Might try something like this instead.
