Believing that crypto is the wild west and any project can rugpull you is learned helplenessness. Being scammed out of your private keys is learned helplessness. The industry creates problems upstream (lack of factories and standards, wallets lets you export keys, etc) and people are internalizing their responsibility (and inability) to clean up the problems downstream.

The solution is almost always to put pressure on the industry and the system’s administrators and designers to improve it (as govt recently has been trying to do after SolarWinds fiasco)

So your opinion is that discussions are bad.

> When the depth comes from lots of people adding information or opinions, the quality is generally pretty high.

That's not a discussion that’s a lot if people broadcasting into the void (it’s also not true, if lots of people are replying to the same comment they’re usually adding identical or strongly overlapping information on a relatively basic subject).

> It’s never that simple

The details might differ some but the overall advice is the same.

If you want to lose weight, eat less.

If you want to be in better shape, exercise.

If you want to improve your health, change your diet (and probably exercise).

A big issue is that people conflate those three objectives.

Being skinny doesn't mean you're healthy and exercising doesn't mean you'll lose weight.

I exercise quite a bit and have always had an extra 10-15 lbs up until semi-recently when I put those three things together and quit eating so much. I still eat plenty of junk food and I've lost about 20 lbs and kept it off.

If you're unhappy with your weight, eat less. If that doesn't work, eat less. Some people might have an easier or harder time with that because we're all different but the advice is the same.
Same, works fine.

I've been working professionally for eight years and it's only been in the last few months that I've learned to use git properly beyond the barest basics. I've had git rebase explained to me half a dozen times over the years because I just wasn't using it often enough for it to stick (and because frankly, git's UX and conceptual model are garbage)

More broadly: this industry is all about never fully knowing what you're doing, especially when you start at a new company. Just keep learning as you go. Also keep in mind that probably more than half of your coworkers have impostor-syndrome too. It's pervasive and it never fully goes away.

I've only known one person in my whole career who was let go based on their abilities, and it wasn't because they didn't already know a technology or didn't learn it fast enough, it was because they had no instinct whatsoever for how to write decent code. And despite that, they landed another job almost immediately.

So I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'm sure you're doing fine.
You can keep weight off with exercise; it's just a lot more than you would think.

I have a friend from high school who struggled with his weight and he hikes and runs extreme amounts to keep the weight off. As in ultra-marathons extreme amounts.

Maybe the average person's knees can't keep up with this, but it's an existence proof at least.
> Fuel sucked, and it wasnt until lead was outlawed that refining higher quality fuels on a large scale became possible

You seem to be arguing your point backwards to me. Lead was only outlawed when refining advanced to a level to permit economically viable high octane fuel without it.

The author would seem to argue they stopped looking for viable methods to avoid the problem when lead arrived, because its costs were pure externalities. Most of the problems with ICE are externalities. The NO burden in diesel for instance, or the PM10 thing, is not really any different to the lead problem. If you own stocks in Oil you don't care that its causing cancer to anyone who lives close to a road, or dumbing down kids, or causing global warning. Why would you?

I can't really disagree with your first point, But I suspect the future of jalopnik is to convince Americans (and it is mainly about Americans) to spend disposable income on either EV, or EV conversion of classic cars. If it sticks to its cylinders, it will become sidelined by the market shift: They'd rather try to define the shift and be part of the shift.

I love steam engines btw. I would totally love to have a stanly steamer, or the air pressure modifed 4-cylinder cars which started off silently because one cylinder was air forced and drove it until the other 3 started up some distance from your fine castle... But I don't see anyone selling me "Jalopnik for steam" which maybe is realistic, but sucks if you like steam.

If you love ICE, you won't like the future. It's going to be niche. Maybe Jalopnik is 25+_years ahead of the game here, which is (I freely admit) stupid.
VSCode was only praised because it was compared to other Electron apps and Atom. It surely is fast enough. But it isn't best of Native Apps fast. Sublime, Coda, or BBText. And again everything is relative. For those who went through some DOS minimal latency era even the so called fast Native Apps today is barely on par.

That said the bar for different people varied a lot. I am latency sensitive.
> At that point though are we kinda arguing semantics? While our microbiome isn't composed of human cells, you can still argue it's a part of our functioning organism.

It's not semantics, because when more calories are used up by bacteria they only sustain the amount of bacteria inside you, which then die and leave your body on a relatively quick timescale.

It's like if your fat cells could only store fat for a month before it gets discarded.

So it's important to know how much is each, if they can both vary.
Insulin overdose is very hard to die from, but it can easily cause permanent brain damage. And that's just in healthy adults. In terms of immediate risk, hypoglycemia is far more dangerous than hyperglycemia (though this is not to discount the severity of DKA).

Indeed, the question really boils down to what the signal symbolizes. I think the implication at the time was that it was an "empty" signal, in that the last semester of your education can't be the source for 100% of its value. Professional football and basketball teams are happy to hire you before you finish your degree, if you're any good. ;-)

Also, I don't know the extent to which this is an issue, but the US has a distinction between workers who have to be paid an hourly wage, and those who are "exempt," and one of the allowable criteria is whether the job requires a college degree. Comparing the value of hourly and salaried employees requires knowing how much they actually earn.

The impact wasn’t what you thought: it turned the US into the biggest exporter of refined products.

In other words, refining security/oversaturation.

A lot of neighbouring countries basically got the US to refine oil at a discount because it was the only way to get excess oil out.
Now you can focus on if err return err instead.

I wanted to like go for its crossplatformness, compile speed and relatively small memory usage while still being more practical than C++.

But not having generics and having to constantly check for errors was the two big things that made me bail.

Just to clarify, I don't want exceptions, I just want some language mechanism that changes err, value to be errOr<value>, which if passed to any function while an error will just propagage that to the return value of the function.

Maybe for extra sugar something like errOr<value> | valueToUseIfError. This makes the code nice and thight, mean that I don't have to declare variables to give them one value to pass into the arguments of the next function and still perserve all the nice properties of Go.

Also a nice cross gui library would be nice, but that is a lot harder. Still 20 years on the best cross gui library that compiles once and runs anywhere is Java...
They’ll just get burned. Plastic is just an intermediate step between oil and thermal energy.
Even paying well sometimes doesn't help retention. ICT roles overall were above-median pay across the 1970s and 1980s when I started, and it was a common trope you hired a graduate for 18 months of training and junior role to see them move on: People actually don't want to stay in their first hire oftentimes.

As long as its a virtuous circle: you hire grad+18mo from your peer companies in the location, its good. When they're walking to 3x salary at a FAANG its super-bad.

The problem is the wage asymmetry, not the graduates per se.

That said: advertising junior roles demanding 2+ years experience? Just stop it. Stop it now.
I want to reject all of them, at a protocol level, and never see another one again. That this wasn't written into the "Cookie Law" is proof to me that GDPR and Schrems II are largely written by people who don't understand the technical ramifications of pushing legislation like this through.
I use the `rustup` package instead of the `rust` package to manage a local installation of rust. This graph seems to show installations of the `rust` package, but I don't think that accounts for `rustup`. `rustup` is recommended on Rust's own website ( https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started ) and some users may have installed `rustup` via the bootstrap script instead of from Arch's own package repository. So I guess there's some additional variables that may not be accounted for regarding `rust`.

> This doesn’t necessarily imply that pride has no predictive power

Do you realize that in such subtle matters as personal attitudes and feelings there is no way even to properly define the variables, let alone to set up a reproducible experiment?

So we come to my starting point - the word “pride” can have 1000 different flavors for different people, leading to different outcomes. And we can’t possibly measure any correlation because we don’t yet know how to define and detect the subjective.

Then you have unlimited opportunities to write tons of pseudo scientific psychological papers focusing on one “kind” of pride and some group of people, inevitably filtering the observations and words through your own filters.

This is related to fundamental philosophical problem of qualia if you’re interested.
This simply doesn’t happen at a rate nearly high enough to make griftocurrency a “need”
It's even worse than that. It's about eating the same thing every day, that's how you lose weight. Most people give up because you have to know what's in different food and then track it somehow. Counting calories is a herculean task, but if you already know the same exact food has 80% of daily calorie intake then you never have to count calories and there is literally no work involved in losing weight.
It really doesn't matter. It wasn't written to be enforced at the protocol level and that was its biggest mistake. The amount of life it has extracted from me is worth far more than the abuse of the data.

As long as that's a two street and you can take it as well as you dish it out.

But often it's not. Often the people who like dishing it out are the most easily affronted if you tell them they are in the wrong.

Don't get me wrong: I actually agree with you. It's just an unfortunate reality that working with people means dealing with people and feelings are a part of that.

It's hard to establish mutually respectful relationships where both parties are equally able to be straight shooters and actually get things done. When it happens, it's wonderful.

But in most workplaces, that's just not reality. So it's very often the case that taking the time to try to not hurt feelings in the first place is more efficient than dealing with the damn idiotic fallout.
Or is it reader view the one that sucks?
Starting from Windows 8, Microsoft started to bully consumers. Look at all the "cloud" contents, "tips", telemetry, Microsoft Accounts and advertisements built in Windows. They are for consumer editions only (Home and Pro, and sometimes Pro Workstations I guess?)

Disabling them requires upgrading to Enterprise or Education (basically Enterprise for schools).

Starting from a later Windows 10 feature update, Home users were forced to login their Microsoft account (for MS to steal your data by having you "cloud connected", right?) during OOBE. Now, Windows 11 Pro users were in the list.

I always recommend people to use the Enterprise edition regardless of their usage, even though you have to use illegal copies. This protects you from all these "cloud" stuff and get you back to a Windows 7 like experience.
Aren't environmental review services a thing in the USA? It's pretty commonly expected to seek such services and edhere to their recommendations prior to filling a launch request in many jurisdictions around the world since prior to launch you have to coordinate with several state authorities, and do some paperwork.

I'm pretty sure any organization that's able to figure out such launch vehicle will be able to do their own due diligence.
calling many of those a "good reason" is.. I don't have a word. Something brittish probably.

But yeah, just calling it out straight away sometimes shuts down communication, people become combative, and that's not good if you want to fix something eventually.
This seems like a very simple problem to solve - the issue owner should move important discussions to somewhere that isn't Slack. Writing a summary (or just cut and paste from the Slack messages) into a Jira or Github issue comment isn't much effort, and reading a summary of a problem is a lot easier for new people.

This actually highlights a problem of Slack. Reading an old Slack conversation is massively inefficient, especially if people have chimed in with irrevelevant stuff. Taking what you learn from a Slack conversation and using it to update proper docs or an issue is far better for anyone who isn't part of that conversation at the time.
It’s tragic to see what greed does to people, and how it corrupts their minds.
for starters because it excludes most languages. Add Python to the url at the top and it dwarfs everything else

More importantly though, trying to count programming languages by installations of individual packages doesn't make sense for languages that have multiple tool chains or are simply being installed by some other means.

script/curl based installations are extremely popular for rust (rustup), haskell (stack), clojure (leiningen) etc...

But thats a way off practical use to actuall find, stack, rename and identify the one golden one to keep in all the dupes.
> I find it incredibly difficult to lose weight dieting

Me too, and so many people do. I hope the treadmill helps, because it can.

FWIW, the article is making intentionally controversial statements and implications. Don’t let it convince you that exercise is wasted; it’s not.

Building a new habit, whether exercise or diet, is the hardest & most important port. I think it’s 90% mental, figuring out how to not give up and not let myself get depressed.

Might not work for you at all, but some tricks that helped me… I resisted counting calories for decades while I exercised a lot. Then I finally tried counting calories, and somehow managed to hold it and it worked. A coworker had lost a lot of weight and when I asked him about it in passing, without stopping to talk, he flashed his phone and mumbled “counting calories, man”, as if it was the easiest most obvious thing ever. That hit me a bit hard and stuck with me. So, it took time, many months. I set my calorie goal to my goal weight, not below. This meant it took longer than necessary to lose weight. I was interested in making sure I knew what it felt like to eat the right amount every day, forever. It helped me mentally to save room in my budget for a small treat snack at the end of the day. Starting with tracking but not restricting calories is a good way to put together your tools (e.g. a phone app) & daily workflow without worrying about being hungry. Calorie counts don’t have to be perfect, just doing it for a while and trying to be accurate, and you’ll get a very good sense for how many cals things have.
Does everything have to be written in this "there's a huge conspiracy" style? Is that what readers actually want?

The subtitle is "Part 8: People might have put less trust in leaded gasoline if they'd known how much of a shitshow the lab was that invented it"

And yet the word "trust" does not show up anywhere in the article.
Yes, but "the tiny amounts of exercise typical overweight Americans engage in won't help" is a very different statement than "you can't exercise your way out of obesity" or "you can't outrun a bad diet." The latter is categorically false.
Does the federal government pay the same rates we commercial third-parties from abroad get to go to launch?
