Thanks for sharing. I'm curious, did you consider at any point untangling those feelings with a psychotherapist?

Your experience resonates with me, but I came to a different conclusion. Meditation did open the doors to a more conscious awareness. That sounds grandiose but it isn't. It means having a practice of observing thoughts and emotions as they arise. As you describe, this can lead to more clarity into the order or nature of things. But meditation ends there, it is a tool to bring about conscious awareness. It does not "create" those thoughts or emotions.

I ask whether you've worked with a psychotherapist because I found myself in a similar predicament. I realized that my discontent had little or nothing to do with my "spiritual" practice. Simply put, the hustle and bustle of daily life is a sure way to keep many thoughts and emotions at bay. A meditative practice lets the stream pour through. For me meditation became a tool to bring those thoughts to the foreground and getting to know them. Through that process I get to know myself better. If necessary, I'll work with a psychotherapist to go through it.

It's almost trivial to create it yourself for anything written in C# or another .NET language. ILSpy and similar tools have existed for quite some time.
It depends what you mean by breaking changes, right? Do you mean they try to avoid breaking ABI in a forwards compatible way? That is, building against new glibc then runing against old glibc should work?

I don't think so: they only make it ABI backwards compatible (compile against old glibc, run against new) and API compatible (recompile your source against different versions should work).

I just checked by glibc and it had > 200 symbols versioned 2.34 which is the current glibc version. If you use any of those you can't run against older glibc.
Well, vipassana meditation is just as intense as any other tradition of contemplative prayer.[0] Canonically the Dark Night happens soon after the first loose "hint" of stream entry or actual awakening/enlightenment, namely the second vipassana jhana, characterized by seeming effortlessness of insight (Daniel Ingram calls this the "Arising and passing away") and this should be enough to tell whether you're facing it.

[0] And yes, in case you didn't know, prayer is definitely a legitimate part of meditation, even going by Buddhist teachings - the typical metta/loving-kindness meditation is indistinguishable from a kind of prayer.

Arguably, a very legitimate role can even be recovered/reconstructed for outright theistic contemplative worship directed at the "Ultimate Self", essentially the Brahman of Hinduism - although this would of course reflect a very imperfect understanding of the Brahman, one way too error-prone for those who would seriously aim at enlightenment and unity with the Ultimate Self in this very lifetime. But nonetheless plenty enough to look forward to what's effectively an afterlife in the Pure Abodes realm as an anagami or "non-returner"! Hinduists in the "dualist" tradition, for all its imperfection, have of course always been aware of this as a possible path.
Agreed. It’s a weak result.
Nvidia Hacked – A National Security Disaster
It's been so frustrating watch this play out over the past decade.

I keep seeing projects that could have been written as a traditional multi-page application pick an SPA architecture instead, with the result that they take 2-5 times longer to build and produce an end-result that's far slower to load and much more prone to bugs.

Inevitably none of these projects end up taking advantage of the supposed benefits of SPAs: there are no snazzy animations between states, and the "interactivity" mainly consists of form submissions that don't trigger a full page - which could have been done for a fraction of the cost (in development time and performance) using a 2009-era jQuery plugin!

And most of them don't spend the time to implement HTML5 history properly, so they break the URLs - which means you can't bookmark or deep link into them and they break the back/forward buttons.

I started out thinking "surely there are benefits to this approach that I've not understood yet - there's no way the entire industry would swing in this direction if it didn't have good reasons to do so".

I've run out of patience now. Not only do we not seem to be learning from our mistakes, but we've now trained up an entire new generation of web developers who don't even know HOW to build interactive web products without going the SPA route!

My recommendation remains the same: default to not writing an SPA, unless your project has specific, well understood requirements (e.g. you're building Figma) that make the SPA route a better fit.

Don't default to building an SPA.

At least destabilizing Ukraine is necessary to prevent near-term, rapid decline for the Russian Federation. Ukraine's energy production potential and proximity to Europe make them a likely serious competitor, at a time when renewables are already putting pressure on petrostates like Russia.

Russia made Ukrainian resources in the East difficult to exploit with their fomenting or fabricating a persistent rebellion out that way, and seized most of Ukraine's substantial resources in the Black Sea when they took Crimea outright—but Crimea's dependent on Ukrainian fresh water, which has quite literally dried up for obvious reasons, and Russia's having a hell of a time (that is, spending huge amounts of money to limited effect) supporting Crimea without holding some of the mainland.

This is part of a series of actions aimed at creating short- and mid-term economic stability for Russia, while also improving their strategic situation. I would guess that an acceptable, if not perfect, outcome for them would be bringing the Eastern ~1/3 to 1/2 of Ukraine under Russian control, and it looks like they may yet manage to play their hand to effect such a partition, despite their bizarrely-inept invasion.

It does appear that they've blundered, overall, and not just though military fuck-ups—the sanctions are likely causing a ton of pain, NATO and the EU are more united against them than they've been in a long time and are re-arming (as in Germany), and they managed to bump energy independence way up the priority list for the EU. However, there are good reasons for them to (have tried to) do what they're doing.
Human curation is something that is definitely missing these days and was severely undervalued with the growth of the internet. I rarely conduct a Google search without appending "reddit" to the query. Because I know I want actual human answers. We are, ironically, using Google today as if it were the Yahoo! curated catalog of 1997. Because we can't trust that the links Google returns aren't some autogenerated SEO-driven affiliate link garbage.

The same applies to music. Spotify is missing that certain ingredient that local radios (before they were sold and cannibalized by Clear Channel/iHeartMedia) and early 1980s MTV really nailed. We want a knowledgeable human to guide us through the landscape of books, music, film, and everything else.

In the past few years Netflix introduced their "Top 10" feature which is prominent near the top of their app. This was the reason I unsubscribed from Netflix. I had been a member since 2004. The "Top 10" feature reminded me on a daily basis that I have no interest in the content Netflix has. Previously I had assumed (because of their rather horrible discovery mechanisms) that Netflix had a much deeper catalog and I could find something to watch if I keep searching. The top 10 list made me finally realize their offerings simply were bad. The value of the service wasn't there.

It makes me wonder if the best deterrence (and perhaps that is the psyops being exercised here) to Putin is to threaten the external (and perhaps internal?) perception of Russia's military might. If other nations generally start to perceive that Russia isn't able to competently or effectively exercise its military then that is a much bigger strategic loss than some sanctions.

It will quickly make the option of negotiating a treaty and taking any small face saving win as a symbolic success look far more attractive than appearing impotent and incompetent and unable to even control a nation directly on its own borders.

As someone who only reads technical books I enjoy the Amazon bookstore but primarily for books for my kids. Barnes and Noble's kids book section can be overwhelming.

They're pre-filtered for popular books at the right age/reading level.

The "we want to make money" argument is pretty weak when desktop software like Ardour demonstrates that it's still possible and feasible.

The "we don't want to be stuck with a too-permissive license" argument is also pretty weak when there are a lot of licenses besides MIT (and when they, being the copyright holders, can relicense at any time; sure, the cat's out of the bag for already-released code, but for future versions that ain't necessarily the case).

That's kinda my entire point.

Stealing someone else's analogy: If you went to a bank to get a small business loan to open up a coffee shop, and you told them "Yeah, I'm hoping to take a bunch of your money, open a coffee shop, never return a profit, and then sell it to Starbucks", you'd get laughed out of the room.

In SV that's a business model.

It's just not not having anything to distract you of your mental pain. Like having a flesh wound and instead of using pain killers, you put you finger on the wound and actually focus on the pain. That would be quite stressful, right?

With or without graphene, if you're drilling holes into concrete without a mask, you're gonna have a bad time. Rock dust, mineral dust, even wood dust from a saw are all carcinogens when inhaled.

I imagine the danger isn't significantly increased unless the graphene is layered thickly enough that the concrete doesn't bond all the way through it. Either you're worried about concrete dust, or you are worried about graphene dust. Concrete dust with bonded bits of graphene are going to be the same physical size as concrete, so I wouldn't expect it to be significantly more dangerous combined.

> By cross-compiling one usually understands compiling for the same OS but different architecture.

I don't even consider that to rise to the level of "cross compiling".

Getting started with emscripten to target WASM for C and C++ is rather a chore of dependency wrangling IME. Targeting WASM from Rust, OTOH, is trivial. Targeting windows from linux with Rust is also quite straightforward, as has been experimenting with targeting consoles or Android from Windows.

Targeting a MIPS32 OpenDingux target from Windows was much more of a chore. The toolchain with libs, headers, etc. that I used is just a *.tar.bz2 that expects to be extracted to /opt/gcw0-toolchain of a linux distro specifically, and embedded absolute paths all over the place make changing that difficult. I do resort to WSL on Windows, basically only because of those embedded paths: https://github.com/MaulingMonkey/rust-opendingux-test

Acquiring the appropriate libs and headers to link/compile against for cross compiling is always an adventure, but Rust isn't making things any worse IME.

>but it's only 10 times the speed of what we have now.

The average fast internet speed most people have right now is 100mbps and there are vanishingly few use cases which require more than this. Pretty much all video streaming including multiple users is easily covered by 100mbps. It comes down almost only to video game downloads where you want it to download in 5 minutes rather than 30. But it seems unlikely that games would gain all that much by expanding their file sizes by 100x without moving to a streaming model so users don't have to fill their storage with content they will never see.
> It's their entire strategy, or lack of strategy that is in question.

So, bearing mind that I'm just shitposting on the Internet and have no military expertise, I do think that they had a strategy; based on the automated release of articles 4 days after the start of the invasion which declared that Putin had provided the "final solution to the Ukrainian problem", they really expected it to be over in four days.

Bear in mind that:

1. Ukraine has different groups with different mother tongues, like Switzerland or Belgium. The east has a lot of people who grow up speaking Russian as their home language.
2. They landed paratroops at key airports across Ukraine on day 1.
3. Ukraine government has claimed they've found significant numbers of special forces disguised as Ukrainians on the first few fays.
4. The large body of conventional forces invading on day one.

I would guess - completely "guy on the Internet" mind you - that what the strategy was is that the paratroops would get a beachhead and destroy the air force, that they and the special forces would hunt down and murder or capture all the key Ukrainian millitary and government officials in the first few days.

Meanwhile the conventional forces in the east would be "greeted as liberators", to borrow an American phrase, by Russian-speaking Ukrainians, who would provide food and fuel. Reinforcements would be flown into captured airfields. Chechen terror units would be used against serious resisters.

By the fourth day, Ukrainian resistance would be a disorganised shambles of cut-off government units, show trials of any captured members of the Ukrainian government could start so they could tell a little story about how the Jewish Ukrainian president was actually a baby-eating Nazi, and Putin could laugh off any attempts to complain as meaningless.

The paratroops were captured or killed, the Ukrainian air force kept flying or escaped to friendly countries (and are now returning), the alleged special forces got nowhere near the Ukrainian government, and Russian-speaking Ukrainians have been telling Russian troops to go away. The Chechen terror units appear to have been killed en masse.
