> she also worked for politics a long time unpaid ( 20 years) because of her husband, who was earning enough.

Who here is naive enough to think her politics and her husband's work are entirely unrelated?

The synergies for the two are way too lucrative to pass up for almost anyone (which is why so many legislators invest in things they are legislating).

> You're not banned from my house, but if you come to visit, you're required to beat my children.
If I'm reading this right, the results were gathered via setting up a website, spreading the word, and allowing anyone visiting the website to participate. I'd expect these results would mostly only be relevant to the "very online."
Indeed; how is it fair that men are "forced" to work and provide income (with all the stress associated for that, especially for low-earners) and are "forced" to miss out on their kids? It seems to me that's just as much of an injustice as women being "forced" to stay at home. ("forced" in quotes as it's not strongly forced, but rather "forced" by expectations, prospects, etc.)

I've long considered traditional gender roles of man works and provides income and woman raises kids and cooks to be unfair to both genders and a general issue that affects everyone, and not really a "feminist" issue as such (or rather, not exclusively feminist).

In my country there's been a lot of discussion that a lot of women are working part-time rather than full-time, with many claiming this is horrible and evidence of discrimination. Maybe that plays a part, but it seems to me the real question is "why aren't more men working part-time?" rather than "why aren't more women working full-time?"

And more general: up to a few decades ago it was entirely normal for a single earner to support an entire family and still have money for a yearly holiday. Now that's much harder financially, if not outright impossible. Something really profound changed in our economy with seemingly few people noticing or commenting on it.

Can someone explain something about fusion for me? To make a fusion reactor that's useful you have to solve two problems: First you have to build a working fusion reactor. Second, you have to capture that energy to do useful work.

Given that, wouldn't it make more sense to focus on technology to capture energy from the giant, already working fusion reactor in the sky?
thanks a lot bencastleton, means a lot!
>If men and women are on an equal footing, why are a good portion of men left without anything useful to contribute?

Point being that not everyone can be a doctor or a lawyer or a physicist. There will always be a good portion of the population that really has nothing to contribute economically but their labor. For women, these labor positions are the ones that have survived our transition to a mostly service based economy; healthcare, childcare, cleaning, food service, etc. For men, they mostly have not. The days of a man being able to use his comparative advantage of physical strength to earn above the median wage are long gone.
> Cards still have magstrips on them but I can't remember the last time one got used.

But the chips are relatively flaky and often don't work. At least here (California) after three failed chip communication attempts, the terminal allows a magstripe swipe instead as a backup. Happens quite often.
I'm suggesting not to hold him or his money in high regard.
He's not worth mentioning.
Using the same machine. That's a pretty impressive jump.
I agree with you, but only if the additional burden on management is not offset by increased productivity of every employee.

I don’t know to what degree - or if - that would be the case, but I strongly suspect it would be.
This is where the article lost me a little bit. I (think I) technically got the part of running a TCP/IP stack in an unprivileged user process, so you don't have to elevate privilege for adding a network interface and using the host OS TCP/IP stack. And maybe that's already very cool. But:

- What other benefits does it give you?

- This isn't a new problem and presumably has prior best practices for mitigation. What is this replacing, what was the landscape like before this? What was the most similar already?

- Have people been looking for a better solution like this for some time?

- What's the over/under on the maintenance cost? You added in another TCP/IP stack to look after. You maybe save on static configuration and can make your system more dynamic. Pros, cons ... let's list them.

The talks a bit about problems they were trying to address, but not in a way that clearly answered the above for me. It's of course valid to write a piece with a more informed audience in mind, but in something that aims to spread the virtues of an idea I think it could do more.
> I'm surprised more people don't know who the yakuza are, but OK.

Before the '80s, practically nobody outside Japan knew what the Yakuza was. Business development over that decade popularized its existence, so (American) writers picked it up, but after the cyberpunk wave (which abused it), it has largely fallen from favour as a narrative device outside Japan. Ironically, this mirrors somewhat the power the Yakuza can actually wield nowadays: after the Lost Decade of Japanese stagflation, and the rise of Eastern-European gangs (the real bosses of the globalized criminal network, at least in terms of raw "wetwork"), the Yakuza was significantly diminished.

White, straight, male, 37 with two kids. One who is severely disabled and under the age of 5. In the past couple of years, its become clear to me that I will probably become a caretaker to my daughter at some point in my life. The prospects of keeping a full time job, in my field are quickly changing - I am no longer desired. Doing this in a financial services setting is especially stark because there's no empathy. Its been really rough the past couple of years. I am trying to find my peace with the idea that I've done a good job, I did everything I was supposed to do, but there were forces outside my control that will dictate the future. My wife just made partner at her firm, and I was told by a c level executive, of color, that I'm "no longer part of where the firm culture is headed". I see this issue every day, it gets harder as we get older. As we head towards 2024, that sentiment on the other side of the fence gains momentum from this type of isolation, regardless of race. It will be interesting to see how many men vote in 2024 vs. previous elections.

> Yeah, the spot-conversion itself guarantees at least one transaction that needs to be mined into a block, which implies all of the energy consumption that it takes to mine a single block, paid up front immediately. (On top of the energy consumption of the transaction that resulted in the donation as well.)

Transactions per se do not have any notable "energy cost". The block would have been mined whether there are transactions to include in it or not, and adding a transaction does not measurably increase the energy cost of mining the block. If a fee is included then this slightly increases the amount of energy miners are willing to spend to obtain that fee, but transactions fees at this point are trivial compared to the fixed block rewards, and more than offset by the fact that they are selling the bitcoins immediately upon receipt and thus putting downward pressure on the price.

Yes, absolutely, and it would be a great idea if you don't trust the financial competence of your beneficiaries, but you want them to have access to your assets. The problem is that those trusts may be viewed as overly restrictive or unnecessarily burdensome to the beneficiaries and so may not be created in the first place. IE beneficiary needs $X for a rational business investment, but can only get $X/4 out of the trust within the timeframe, even though 1000*$X in total is in the trust.

Was? Most of the ones I use are still magstripe-based ("remove your card quickly"). Only occasionally it says "leave card inserted" which is where (I assume) it's talking to the chip.
This. I think the technique is called the (monolith) strangulation pattern.

WRT Agile, you need some tech debt stories to break open the monolith and set up for strangulation. Then some more stories to pull out a part of the monolith that is likely subject to the most product-driven feature evolution.

Then, and only then, will you be able to entertain small feature increments from product owners.

Tell them you'll need to earmark 20-30% of each sprint (or every 4th sprint) for tech debt / refactoring
I’ve watched these reviews and their overall conclusion of the product seems completely divorced from all the details leading up to the conclusion. It runs hot, barely manages acceptable frame rates at 1280x800 on older games, and has pretty abysmal battery life. The performance, poor as it is, requires the most expensive model at $630.

But then at the end it’s the most innovative gaming PC in 20 years. Really? It’s an expensive handheld with poor performance and poor battery life for a niche use case of PC gaming on the go and a relatively small subset of the Steam library.
A fusion reactor could have much more concentrated energy. The sun is great, but it's putting out energy in all directions and we're a long way away
I did not know that guy, but it seems I agree to him.

"Set your own goals."

Just be careful, that they are truly your goals.

All those poor wannabe models for example, who believed they need to maintain the goal of a certain very low weight and in effect developed bulimia? The same can happen with any goals.

So always be free to drop or change your goals, if you find they no longer fit, or were not smart to begin with.

But this if of course the hard part: figuring out when you give up on a goal - is it, because you are just lazy and should maintain discipline - or was it really a wrong or unrealistic goal?

So be realistic, if you set goals as it is of course not ideal to your morale, to drop goals, instead of accomplishing them.

It doesn't, also doesn't mean that I can't call him a prick whenever he's mentioned in a light that's slightly glowing.
It's too jarring to me with the constant playing of the next thing. It's just content content content with no free time in between for you to be alone with your own thoughts. You could spend three hours on the app and have no time for a single independent thought of your own at all. At least three hours in front of cable TV would mean you'd do some introspection when you got up to pee during the commercials.
This would be some real utility of a social credit score.
My guess is that most men would know it as a loom and most women would know it as a type of fabric. I wonder if jacquard fabric is still produced on anything resembling a jacquard loom.
I don't believe we have anywhere near the data needed to reliably describe the vocabulary or interests of the people of the 19th century. Most of all history is narrowly focused on the goings on of elites - which may, or may not be broadly representative. I don't think we have quantitative studies or surveys of populations from that time.
I'm not making an app but I would love (good) API access to my own data. I see you have a free tier that would totally work for me, but it's not clear if using it for personal use is ok?
I see why you would conclude that "it's pretty obvious why a good portion of men are now left without anything useful to contribute." It sure looks that way based on the sheer volume of male resentment online. Try commenting on any forum with a female persona and you will be ready to call for mass internment of trolls.

But, the thing is, men are on not just equal footing, but a very advantageous footing especially where men dominate investment decisions. There is no excuse for men not to step up to the challenge of being equals when others carry a heavy disadvantage, still.
Without a list of the third-party domains the tiktok app contacted, this study is useless and unproven
> I still think Telegram will plainly run out of money in a few years (you can use it to host unlimited amount of data and share it with unlimited number of people!! that is not sustainable), but well, I will use them before they do.

And then they will start selling all the personal data they gathered in all these years. They have all the data, except for the tiny amount that passed through secret chats (but they also have the metadata for these, tied to accounts and all the non-secret stuff).

The kind of data Signal can't sell even if Moxie turns evil, simply because Signal does not have it.
Fascinating. I could explain, in detail, every single much-better-known-by-men word. I did not recognize a single better-known-by-female word, with the exception of doula.

I'm highly sympathetic to that position, but it isn't useful in distinguishing between various Microsoft solutions, which was the topic of this subthread.
Yes, my last car I specifically looked for HD Radio support. The metadata is nice to have, but the audio quality is genuinely much better. Especially on AM, where a lot of sports broadcasts still are, depending on the market.
If we view fashion as part of an effective female mating strategy, which it observably is, then it’s unsurprising that success at that intrasexual competition would be selected for.

The giant fusion reactor in the sky dissipates most of its energy before it gets to Earth, and more of it in the atmosphere. A new star born in a reactor can be fully contained, so most of its energy can be captured for its intended use case.

Abuela Alma has pride for sure, but I felt like she was driven much more by fear and trauma.
Absolutely agree. I’ve found that behavioral interviews are harder than technical interviews at this point. If you don’t have the set of experiences they’re looking for then it’s game over.

This can be ameliorated slightly if the interviewer is willing to accept a hypothetical, but this has rarely been the case for me recently.
BGA doesn’t have all the licenses and you have to get approval before you can work on a game (they might have changed this since), and the BGA framework is an ancient mix of no-framework PHP with ExtJS.

I, for one, would like it, and I think I'd like it more than my wife. My personality is well suited to being a stay at home parent. I like chaos, and I like working with my hands. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of reduced-hour programming jobs, and our financial situation isn't such that one of us can be full-time stay-at-home.

In what way? I've worked with some people with some fairly, ehm, extreme takes on things, and had a fair share of disagreements, sometimes with some words that were harsher than I thought were professional, but I've never been subjected to or observed anything I'd call close to "bullying".
This is a good question and part of the reason you didn't get a clear answer from the article is that I'm not sure if I have a clear answer.

What I think user-mode TCP/IP gives us is the ability to build arbitrary services --- Postgres, Redis, SSH, network management, whatever --- without having to make infrastructure changes. We don't have to have some weird API or application proxy that knows what's running and who's allowed to run what. Instead, that's simply baked into the network, and flyctl, by dint of netstack, can just use it. If somebody comes up with a cool network service to plug flyctl (or any other tool someone wants to write) into, it will just work.

But things like the maintenance cost, well, yeah, that's most of what the post is about. The maintenance cost was not especially low.†

There's a natural inclination to read any post like this as a kind of brag, but I'm really just experimenting with trying to show the good with the bad here. User-mode TCP/IP is a weird choice! Nobody else I know of does it! It might have been the wrong choice! Even though I love it!

† It's actually not low even right now; I'm spending the first half of the day deploying code that relays stats from Netlink on our gateways through our GraphQL API, so that flyctl can check WireGuard gateway health. That is not a thing we would be spending time on if we had just written an explicit proxy for Postgres or whatever, rather than providing a generic network transport.
Solar panels are all well and good, but you couldn't use them inside of a fusion reactor. For one thing they wouldn't be able to withstand the temperature and neutron flux. Most fusion reactor designs capture energy by heating water, same as a fission reactor.
You contacting the plasma would cause it to collapse, but you would already by cooked. It's a chicken and egg question, because a plasma is never going to get started with a person inside; it needs a near perfect vacuum.

I think the point is that a significant part (majority?) of our culture is defined by our biology and nearly all is at least influenced by biology.

The ultimate counterexamples would be societies where women are in charge of the engineering/construction and to my knowledge there are none which is a sign that there's something deep within our psyche which drives these interests. I'd love to hear counterexamples if anyone has them though.

If we could figure it out then maybe we'd figure out how to get more women into the STEM fields. Lord knows we've been trying.
