> This sounds like a dangerous thing to think. If the rest of my team does not have more information than me, I have failed to convey the important things I know.

Two points 1) I think the advice is for small teams / startups where I can easily see this happen and 2) One can tweak the advice to "And you got more *context* than they do" for larger organisations
Not sure why this is getting downvoted, because it is 100% correct - the statement is a risk disclosure, not a threat

Masks do work, but not the masks given to school children!
It sounds like you have read the question as "if a person could only read a single book in their whole life, what should it be?"

But I think the question actually meant: "for actual real life people here on HN, who have all probably read some books already, what extra book would you suggest reading?"

For us adults, there are probably books that would have more value than Dr Zeuss, excellent though it may be.
Best Cross Platform Unified Endpoint Manager for Windows, Ubuntu and Mac OS?
I'm currently looking for a good UEM like ManageEngine , Jump Cloud . I found Jump Cloud better but it doesn't offer support to linux machines ... Is there any service that offers cross platform support?

I mainly need to be able to Peform Patch Management , Restrict Softwares , Controlling User Account and enforcing disk encryption .

Thanks

The IPs of TOR exit nodes are publicly known. I'm not sure people using TOR are aware of how the concept and peer discovery mechanism works.

I mean, at some point you gotta ask yourself why cloudflare shows all TOR users a captcha in a targeted manner :)

called mail in your import path.

Let's take Python for example. With Python, I am in control of the import path.

I can put those two mail modules in:

stuff/mail
tools/mail

And then use them like this:

from stuff import mail as mail1
from tools import mail as mail2

I don't have to hope for anything.
It is a "follow the crowd" thing. Or following a recipe for a successful story. It's not a problem only of Ted talks, read or watch any commercial fiction and they will bore you to death with the same story archetypes. The problem comes from trying to hedge the publishing risk: "see, if we are going to produce this talk/book/movie, we want some reassurances that is going to sell. So, you must follow this recipe." To make matters worse, there are like one recipe, the "hero journey", which is exactly what you described above.
Paul Graham Defends NFTs
Depends on who you would ask.

Anecdata: was asked by a client why the same query was running orders slower on our infrastructure (IaaS on Xeons) than on their test server (a regular desktop with i7). I check the load, IO, yada-yada and I don't see anything what could indicate the slowness. After a bit I check the db size and ... I'm pretty speechless, because it is 77MBs. 77 megabytes and the query runs for tens of seconds. I tell the client to give me the query. They are happily oblige and provide a two FullHD screens of SQL with like... 20? More? 'SELECT *' from the same tables on and on.

After speaking nicely with the client about the origins of this query and checking their dev environment, I learned:

1. this query was autogenerated by Lavarel

2. their dev environment is 100 times smaller than the prod

3. until I forced them to copy prod data to dev they didn't believe the problem was with the query

4. between two programmers and one sysadmin on the client side NOBODY was even close to reasons of slowness.

So... for some people SQL in 2022 is pretty equal to punchcards.
Because that would be illegal market manipulation.

Any institute, including GameStop themselves, would be committing a crime if they knowingly triggered a short squeeze. The SEC rules on this is quite clear.

What's interesting to me is that the official SEC report on GameStop "squeeze" specifically called out that the rise in price WAS NOT due to short covering, but rather a large increase in retail buying and market makers balancing options. So the reported % short went from more than 100% to less than %20 with zero short covering and prices falling? Yeah, sure.
> Counterexamples to your point: Mozart, guy was copying whole compositions by memory at age 14

Mozart’s father was a minor composer, accomplished musician, and skilled teacher (he published a well regarded violin textbook the same year WA was born).

Mozart started picking up musical education through his father teaching his older sister.

> Einstein?

The tutored son of an engineer, graduate of ETH Zurich?

Both of them were geniuses, but in both cases their familial background and educational access were not exactly minor.

If you’re looking for something even remotely close to an actual self-made genius, it’s probably Ramanujan you want. And here you could actually argue formal education was unsuitable and damaging: dude was only interested in pure mathematics so failed out of two colleges (as well as his FA), nearly starved until he chanced a meeting with V. Ramaswamy Aiyer (the founder of the Indian Mathematical Society).

But such stark examples are not common at all. It’s almost certain we collectively missed on a much higher number of Einsteins and Mozarts because they did not have the early access and education to blossom, than we stifled and smothered ramanujans.

Would Jacob Collier exist if he’d been born in a slum of Chennai, on the streets of Bogota, or in a project? That seems doubtful. But how many Jacob Colliers did, and were lost?
Important to not accidentally let any 20th century books into the curriculum, let alone any 21st century ones?
The 12-year-old Einstein taught himself algebra and Euclidean geometry over a single summer.

Einstein also independently discovered his own original proof of the Pythagorean theorem at age 12.

And more at Wikipedia. Point is geniuses learn way faster by themselves than going to a class. It's a huge waste of time to sit in a lecture of someone speaking at turtle pace, I would fall asleep. Sorry if you went through that.
This book also gave us the neologism 'meme' in the way most people know it today.
I totally expected it to be a troll site. It's actually sensible advice.

But, really, I suggest using other tools. We have nicer tools now.
From the article:
"Now, if you paid the money, but the landlord refuses to release the keys, that's a violation of the contract. Similarly, you violate the contract if you refuse to pay for the second week after using up the first week's rent.

Per contract law, any party can sue in court if the other fails to satisfy their part of the bargain. Contracts allow people who may or may not trust themselves to do business since there's a trusted intermediary (the court) to enforce the agreements."

(I admit being n00b here, and this piqued my curiosity.)

Has there been any cases where the validity of smart contracts has been judged in courts?

The article talks about removing the third party arbitration and the vending machine. But I don't see the mapping of the vending machine example, over to the landlord, rent payment - where one or the other party actually breaks the agreement. How is that solved with smart contracts? For example paying for something that turns out to be something else (an orgiginal drawing of a monkey, a container supposedly filled with high value, non-counterfeit Nike shoes.)

People who are against the face condom, I'm sure, use condoms with people they don't trust. I'm sure they wear seat belts as well. The problem is that this country invented the term "face covering", instead of mandating masks that work - KN95, N95, KF94, KF99, FFP2, FFP3, etc.
> There are still many retail investors who think the saga is far from over

I had the misfortune to encounter one of these on reddit the other week. I asked (what I thought was) a fairly simple question - are people still in it because they think the company has a reasonable chance of turning around and making good money, or is this now an idealogical thing about sticking it to the man, or a bit of both?

And I basically got a full-on hard sell as a response, massive amounts of details about business plans and any reservations I expressed were due to me being stupid and/or biased.

So that's me told.
Great article! But I don't think that planners in other countries are unaware of how to make their rail systems better - they simply lack the political support and funding to be able to do it. Of course it make sense to add additional tracks to overloaded lines, improve the signaling, the maintenance etc. - but such projects are delayed for decades by political bickering, NIMBYism, funding difficulties etc. Plus it's much sexier for politicians to show off new high-speed train lines (never mind new freeways or airports) rather than such mundane rail improvements (which have a much higher "value for money" however).
That is another consequence I don't like about the quirky namespace approach. It collects more and more problems like a ball of dust that gets bigger and bigger.

The consequence you mention is that one depends more and more on tooling and services.
"Acceptable" is different for different folks.
I don't understand the general sentiment of either you have enterprise level performance or it's a fail. Not everyone is building next Facebook or Amazon and yet most developers think that they are and vastly overestimate their needs. Also most hosting provides already have fpm configured for you and if you need to do it yourself for your VPS then it's not complicated.
You will probably agree that the hidden recommendation here is to have kids :)

With small kids, the world is your oyster and everything is a great wonder, and that's the real treasure.

So perhaps we can say the advice is to learn from kids and stay hungry and foolish? And that can of course apply to reading as well!
I guess sometimes you are forced to use tools you'd rather not.
> We have an agreement that @'ing/DM'ing is expected to be asynchronous unless you explicitly let the recipient know otherwise

How does this work?

Becuase the problem as a recipient is that now I still need to read every.single.message.all.the.time to see what it says, which is ridiculous waste of time and source of continuous interruption.

I much prefer to check email + slack once or twice a day at most, batch process them then. It's the only way to get any work done.
Im confused, don't the vast majority of public wifi spots use a some sort of custom web gui pop up so consistent programmatic access is difficult/impossible?

PHP did not invent CGI and the whole selling point of mod_php was "share-something" architecture.

You're right, that one nameless group you made up has no more reason to complain any more about the settlers than they have to complain about that other nameless group you made up.

I don't know that many nicer tools than Laravel, to be fair.

Especially Laravel + Lighthouse, which is an extraordinarily neat GraphQL layer considering the huge deployability you get with PHP.

PHP is progressing towards a nicer language in a way that JavaScript, IMO, is not. And taking tens of millions of programmers with it.

An explanatory article on Drawnapart, a GPU-based tracking technique
Some contracts don't need to be immutable to be useful.

A smart contract, even a mutable one, is incredibly useful. It is a state machine that can be programmed arbitrarily to receive funds, distribute funds based on particular rules, etc. Like a DAO, for an example, should be thought of as an LLC-like arrangement. Organizations necessarily evolve and need to be able to change their current framework from time to time, or they're calcified against necessary change.

That being said, the rules for conducting an upgrade can still be tightly controlled or placed into a 5 of 8 multisig or a full DAO vote with 10% minimum token supply participating if need be. It's all completely arbitrary and fully programmable. That is, to say, it's incredibly powerful.

A mutable contract is clearly not a violation of the contract, as it must be intentionally programmed in that way in the first place, and so it should be clear to any party reading the code of that particular contract that mutability is a feature of the contract and under what conditions mutability is able to be executed.

Some contracts you want to be immutable, some contracts you want to be configurable. It's just as simple as that. No need to overthink it, just understand what type of contract you're interacting with and under what terms. That's all.

I've only used it three times so far, but it's been able to hold full loads of laundry along with sheets with no problem. I also like how the top two platforms are angle-adjustable, so I can position them tilted up or down as convenient.
>I’ve seen things only get worse as FOSS has come to dominate the world

You know how the IT world looked before FOSS? Relentless rent-seeking with the software controlling access, combined with a very high barrier of entry, financially.

I also think people give too much weight to the developer being paid for the software or not. There's shitty closed source software and also shitty FOSS stuff. Brilliant minds can work on either. Many eyeballs on the code haven't prevented Heartbleed, for example, and the high paid devs at whatever company also make mistakes and maintain huge leaky legacy codebases all the time.

The big thing with anything digital is that it can be copied very cheaply. This is a game changer because if I have something digital, we all can have something digital, which is not a case, for example, with a piece of bread, which gets smaller the more we share. This quirk or the digital space can give rise to a movement where a single contribution can empower literally every other person, with no additional expense on the contributor's part. This, coupled with ideology that emphatizes personal empowerment, and a lawful document that ensures further participation in the ecosystem, is what made IT accessible to many, without resorting to piracy.

I'm sure folks can be annoying af about this. But the world hasn't gone to crap, it has always been crap, and the free software / open source movement is one of the larger influences that made it so much better.

This is my first rack so not much to compare to, but so far I'm satisfied with it.
> Once you add these frameworks, you realize you could have started with Python or Java in the first place and get more mature infrastructure and better language along the way.

And, with things like Flask or FastAPI, you get BASIC-like simplicity and immediacy with a language that has a concept-space that scales with your understanding of it.
Why not install using asdf ?
To some extent that's true. But tools have their own culture as well. I've loved email for 30+ years because the culture is inherently async. I'll reply when I get to it, which might be tomorrow.

Slack builds a culture of hyper-immediate distraction which seems difficult to avoid.
But it made certain sense, as it's remarked:

"...it was targeted for the axe at the privatization of Japanese National Railways in 1987, just 15 years after completion, but escaped because the road that runs more or less parallel with it and is the only route into Iwaizumi from the south is not wide enough in many places for two cars to pass and is treacherous in winter."

Also, per that article, the number of passengers is quite higher than that, and "per kilometer". Not that is huge, but...

"...the least trafficked line in the whole nation, with average daily ridership per kilometer of 46 people in fiscal 2009"

Anyway, I'm with @rob74 on this, profit shouldn't be the only concern in public transport.

It should be noted that Cargo (the Rust package manager) has slightly stricter requirements here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/semver.html

> Initial development releases starting with "0.y.z" can treat changes in "y" as a major release, and "z" as a minor release. "0.0.z" releases are always major changes. This is because Cargo uses the convention that only changes in the left-most non-zero component are considered incompatible.

This makes it more useful for OSS that never seem to reach 1.0.
I work in defense for a company called Anduril. I can tell you the code that anduril ships is buggy, hacked together and has basically a huge lack of test coverage.

An Iranian colleague of mine ran into a similar conundrum. The solution is to never give away more information than strictly necessary.
Aside from the already great points made by others, I am trying to move away from the Amazon ecosystem a bit as both a reader and a writer, since I do not think Amazon is good for writers (in the long-term). Since I also plan to start publishing my fiction "wide" (ie on stores other than Amazon), it was a good time to get a non-Amazon reader to preview my books on.
Brilliantly explained.

3D Artist Desk Setup
Sure, but if we're talking about these languages being "socially acceptable" for writing websites, they arrived a bit later to the party than PHP.

Granted, it still happened about a decade and a half ago, so I hoped the sarcasm using the word "new" would come through.
I didn't know he had a huge staff, but I'm pretty sure he saved enough to give them a nice severance package if things go that South and still have enough to retire and live a meaningful yet modest life... if there's nothing else for him to do, of course.
PHP has a deep history of less than ideal defaults and Tutorials/Examples. This makes scaling a codebase without some kind of framework (even if homegrown) even more of a challenge.

And in my opinion PHP tends to be ugly and less readable by default.
Maybe There’s a Use for Crypto After All
That data comes without e-mail addresses, phone numbers, or any real-world identity. They want to become more like Twitter, where people post with their IRL identity. That way your Reddit upvotes can translate into a salesman physically knocking at your door if that's what marketers decide would make the sale.
> Oftentimes this means that the person making the judgment hasn't thought deeply enough about the problem to be able to see all the complexities in the problem that justify all the complexities in the solution.

While this is true, oftentimes it's true that the person who solved that problem solved it through a lens of their own knowledge (blindspots included). Some of the biggest, most difficult to use messes have come from the "expert" developers who solve a whole bunch of problems that are tangentially related with one solution that is 50% neat and 50% duct tape because they _didn't_ think about the complications when they designed it.
> I'm glad my parents' and grandparents' generations didn't share this attitude

That's not an attitude, but a conclusion that is based on what we know about the virus and the vaccines.

Smallpox, polio and measles can practically be eradicated with vaccines, while SARS-CoV-2 cannot, at least not with the existing vaccines. It is also important to look at the fatality rates and other risk factors. Denmark has decided that SARS-CoV-2 is not a threat for the society anymore and lifted all mandates. Not because they don't value life, but because they value life.
I generally list this as my favorite book. Have read it god knows how many times.

Recently found an audio version read by Vonnegut himself - originally released on vinyl. It was great to hear him tell it, though it is quite abridged.

A different (and unabridged) audio version I found recently was read by the actor Ethan Hawke — and though I respect the man, his voice/acting just couldn’t do the material justice.

Great work of art.
