Apple's stock is up over 1000% in the 10 years since Tim Cook became CEO. Over that time it went from a $350B company to a $2.7T company. He oversaw the creation of over $2T in value and his net worth is in the low single digit billions? If anything he's underpaid for the job he's doing.
HN is like the morning newspaper to me. I come to work, get my first coffee brewing, skim the headlines, read an article or two and engage in the comments. If a call comes in, I just stop reading/writing, and if the article was interesting enough, I may pick up later.

Voice Chat means immediate and constant attention required. That's not appealing to me.
I thought I was like this. Track your calories. Eat 3000 calories a day, and a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight (150 grams for you). And I promise you'll gain weight, unless you have something wrong with your digestive system. It's actually pretty hard to eat like that consistently for many skinny people.
About Phelps - he need to build, maintain and condition a whole lot of muscle mass.

He’s incredibly far from a normal human - he’s a true specialist.

Lots more energy goes in to that, compared to losing excess fat and living a “normal” human hunter gatherer existence.

The whole system change once you go google scale, so to speak, and phelps is gmail.

> Wouldn't you expect that a company operating on free market principles went for a good but cheap option?

No, I expect it to do what the market can bear. “The market“ can be a single person and single entity, a trade between two market participants where of course, any price is a market-good price.

Good simply meaning a transaction occurred and settled, while bad meaning it did not. Those are my expectations. Doesn't mean thats what I would do or negotiate or whether I would mildly chuckle at what was negotiated.

You're right, cycle commuting falls in a great niche. It's still fast enough to cover decent distances in a reasonable amount of time, you can still carry your grocery shopping, and it's healthier than driving while still achieving most of the same things.
What do you actually print, though?

I don't own a printer nor scanner - and I haven't done-so for almost 10 years now. If I need to print or scan something I'd use my (pre-WFH) workplace's copier room or (as now) use my town's library's facilities.

...fortunately I haven't needed to print or scan anything at short-notice, though most "scanning" I do thesedays is through some document-scanning app on my phone which gives good-enough results.

I know plenty of people want to be able to print their own photos at home, but I'm utterly unconvinced that any home inkjet or even color-laser printer is going to give results anywhere near as good as a commercial print place.

And of course, there's the unavoidable HP printer-ink-costs-more-than-human-blood problem - I find it marvelous that HP has been the number 1 factor in driving people away from buying home printers.
>Can you be a skilled programmer...

The answer is no. I agree with you and there is a chance that I could've been less generous in my description.

I think they were ashamed to be confronted since they had a more advanced education and experience level than most of the rest of the team. They worked well with everyone, would gladly help others improve skills, had a great personality and sense of humor but their main defect was the unwillingness to accept the fact of their own fallibility, causing production lags and extra work fixing problems that shouldn't have happened. We handled it and it all worked out in the end.

I wished that people would stop focusing on exteriors so much and dealt with others based on merit rather than looks, age, height, weight.
Stop it right now. This is not a site where you indulge your nuttiest, most insane fantasies. Seriously, though, I got one of those reservoir printers and it has finally solved all my printer issues. It cost about $380 a year ago but the great thing is I can ignore it for months at a time, then just turn it on and use it when I need to. Unlike the cheaper printers, it doesn’t dry out and start functioning.

Is it certain that we absorb all of the calories we consume? I went on a backpacking trip with my friends recently and despite similar activity levels everybody was surprised when they noticed that I eat twice as much as anybody else in the group.

Maybe I should bring it up with a doctor, but I feel fine, I just also spend more on food than most.
So, whats your point? Does that change anything?
I hate framing it this way but your passionate hating has me doing it - do you build rockets? Or cars? What exactly do you do that gives you such certainty in bringing down these people who have already achieved so much? Their "dream big" mentality is sorely lacking in a society full of cynical, dead eyed and uncreative drones focused on nothing but financing their own survival or excesses. Applaud it, don't try to bring it down. There's literally no point. At a minimum they inspire others to get out there and get after it tackling problems.
I've a question I've never seen addressed. It's likely that some of what you consume is actually utilized ... and that some, if it's not needed, is just 'ignored' (excreted). Oxygen needed? Very little.

Also some people can eat and eat, whatever they want, and not gain a lot of weight. Genetics has to be part of it.
Why?

I like to check things out so I can take a look at it through the eyes of an ide.

Just running it doesn't tell me the whole story.
Yes thinking that good CEOs would be cheap in a free market shows you have essentially ZERO understanding of basic economics, just like the author who thinks there is a specific ratio that CEO pay is not allowed to be relative to the average employee, which is obviously weighed by the large number of lower level employees.

The fact that Tim Cook ONLY costs 1447 times what an average employee costs is a real bargain.

There are 10s of 1000s of average employees. There was effectively only one Steve Jobs until Tim Cook proved he could be Tim Cook, and as a shareholder I would not want you to try and nickle&dime the guy who has created so much value for shareholders.

Yes, the CEO is the chief value creator because ultimately he decides who remains at Apple, he sets the overall strategy and HE has to take full and final responsibility in front of shareholders for all results good or bad.

Mr Middle Manager or Mr Programmer is not going to be called in by the board to explain any problems with profits or growth. Mr Programmer is important but there are more people that can do his job as well as him, as there are people who have a proven track record running an Apple or similar.

Shareholders that buy Apple stock do so at least in part because Tim Cook is the CEO. Sure I first look at the business fundamentals and the valuation, but Tim Cook's proven track record is a major part.

Go watch Buffet interviews on YouTube to hear how highly he rates Tim Cook.

I've never heard Warren Argue that Tim is overpaid, and yet Warren is a very large shareholder.

It's easy for people with very little stake in Apple to have strong opinions about what the Apple CEO should be paid.

If shareholders buy Apple stock in part because Tim Cook is the CEO and not some new unproven person of dubious merit, how much is he worth paying? A lot
It depends on the context. Just yesterday I was doing a data centre audit with a colleague, who is many years my junior, and I am her manager, and she has hardly been in a data centre. She’s also amazing by the way.

So when I see her doing a few things that I wouldn’t have done, I could have just reacted and pointed it out and told her how it should be done. For sure I wanted to, I’m an engineer!

Or I can have a bit of trust that, given a minute and a few more repetitions, she’ll get it. Which she did. And now she’s learned something, and now I’m not “that guy”, and now we have a better relationship, and so on.

I appreciate that this might not be the sort of thing you had in mind. If there’s an error in code that isn’t going away if someone doesn’t say something then, sure, say something.

This matches with my (n=1) experience. The only way to cure "yourself" is to get away from organizations that use Slack in the way that OP describes.
Cook should do the ultimate Fuck You to shareholders by moving to Puerto Rico under Act 60 to make it new grants that year nearly tax free, with very short vesting periods. Vesting time period is not regulated, so there is alot you can do on the board or as CEO to yourself.

It parses your C++ headers to generate helpful metadata used for runtime reflection and slot-and-signals. All the generated code is C++.

The latest versions of CMake support moc out of the box, so developers hardly notice the moc step.

>> somehow the sedentary lifestyle of your average couch potato

What I got out of the article wasn't that sitting still and not thinking can somehow burn calories; just that strenuous mental activities can burn a great deal more energy in humans than in apes. This is believable to me. I'm a person who falls asleep doing math in my head every night. I got a chance, during a year of pandemic lockdown, to experiment with my own body in this way.

I only eat once per day. I don't keep fixed hours; sometimes I'll stay up for 24, sleep for 16; other times I'm regularly 8/16 sleep/wake. I don't have a set bedtime. I try to maintain 16/48 sleep/wake over any given period.

No matter what, I only eat one meal every 24 hours. I've been doing this for about 20 years.

This makes it easy to measure when I get hungry in relationship to my last meal. My body is well trained to expect about a 24 hour delay; I have no appetite and don't think about food until around 22 hours post-dinner.

Under lockdown conditions, I began to notice that I wasn't hungry as expected on days where I hadn't spent >= 6 hours working on strenuous code. If I took a day off and "couch potato'd", I might not eat at all for 48 hours. But if I focused on code for 8+ hours, I would be hungry on time or early.

I started to experiment with this. I figured out that if I took a 1 hour walk, plus 4 hours programming, it made me hungry right around where 6+ hours of code did. A 1 hour walk - to me - seems about equal to 2 hours of writing code in terms of what my body feedback gives me about my calorie burn.

I don't walk very fast, and I code very intensely.

But that's just it - this article is about solving math problems as a way to burn calories. I have a nice new M1 Mac that only ever turns its fans on or gets warm when I'm using all 10 cores. Last night my task falling asleep was to calculate randomly chosen x/128ths as percentages to five decimal places. My daytime task was harder; and now I'm hungry. And I haven't walked anywhere today.

However: Couch potato, this ain't. And the point about the body's reduced expectation of physical output is probably accurate as well.

Nice how the shareholders "revolt" over $99M in pay, but selling out the American people and workers by offshoring all manufacturing to what is essentially slave labor in China is A-OK. Until they make a fuss about that, they can cry us all a river.
I can totally see why Tim is worth it. It was his teams genius idea to take away ports and brake the keyboard design so they could charge double when they fixed them. Brilliant.

$99m is enough to buy 200 people a new home, that would take normally take them 20+ years to pay off. So about the equivalent of 4,000 years of labour of the average middle class person. To put that in perspective, Jesus the carpenter would still have 2,000 years of labour left.
Well, what I can say that teams still hasn't got an ARM native version. Shouldn't be that hard, since Electron long supports it. Even OneDrive is there yet, the rest of office anyway.

Russia invaded Crimea and eastern Ukraine already. Russia will not hesitate to use military force if they feel like it. The post is right that they can pull back and still come out ahead, but wrong to claim that invasion is not something Russia does or might do. Also Russia is the master of disinformation so citing Russia’s claim that they won’t invade undermines credibility of the author. Russia loves to say one thing and do another

IMO CICO is right but not useful. It's like saying that if you just read math books and did the exercises, you'd get a math degree easily.

That's true of course, but the problem for most people is sticking to the plan, not whether that plan would actually work.

We see athletes sticking to their plans but they are pretty special in terms of what they can get themselves to do.

You could try using Tailscale. It's a wireguard based mesh VPN. Just set it up on your device, your server, and you're good to go. You can just only allow SSH over Tailscale, without worrying about anybody else trying to get in.

Other alternatives include ZeroTier and Nebula afaik, but I've never tried either.

(Still use SSH keys regardless though.)

Great summary. A friend once commented that there are no long term winners in social networks, drawing a path all the way back to compuserve. I thought it was an interesting point, but I remember thinking anything pre-web didn't really count (for no real reason I suppose).

> Executive Summary

> America’s schools routinely avoid academic acceleration, the easiest and most effective way to help highly capable students. While the popular perception is that a child who skips a grade will be socially stunted, fifty years of research shows that moving bright students ahead often makes them happy.

> Acceleration means moving through the traditional curriculum at rates faster than typical. The 18 forms of acceleration include grade-skipping, early-entrance to school, and Advanced Placement (AP) courses. It is appropriate educational planning. It means matching the level and complexity of the curriculum with the readiness and motivation of the student.

> Students who are moved ahead tend to be more ambitious, and they earn graduate degrees at higher rates than other students. Interviewed years later, an over- whelming majority of accelerated students say that acceleration was an excellent experience for them.

> Accelerated students feel academically challenged and socially accepted, and they do not fall prey to the boredom that plagues many highly capable students who are forced to follow the curriculum for their age-peers.

Take a look at rasterio in Python (best installed using Conda because you need a few tricky dependencies like GDAL). It's designed for geospatial data that can be too large for RAM. You usually open data windows that are smaller views into the image. Ideally you'd have a geotiff but I don't see why it couldn't open a normal one.

I've used a variant of this code to tile large aerial surveys for processing. The snippet needs a bit of cleaning but it works out of the box:

I feel like it's a more complicated story going on.

Post exercise I will often have a sort of hunger roller coaster. Naively, imagining the body's metabolism, hunger is responding to perception of a calorie deficit in the blood : organs demanding energy and blood sugar decreasing, forcing burning of calories from stored reserves.

But what if your body is able to efficiently maintain glucose levels? in that case exercise might not induce hunger, in fact it might be that exercise stimulates alternative pathways that release energy and these stay active even after you finish exercising. This might well be much more the case for well trained athletes than regular people. Or it might depend on diet or loads of other factors.

Personally, I have found that exercise is nearly pointless any time other than right before I eat. So exercising before breakfast is perfect because the stimulated hunger response is immediately satisfied by eating breakfast. But I don't eat more breakfast than I usually would, so it's a win.
