Postmortem – Information for Partners and Dependents to Be Opened Upon Death
My partner sat in the same cube pod as someone who took their life. One day they were just gone and a crying family member came by to take away a box of things. There was no official acknowledgement of what happened, no service or memorializing, only hushed whispers. It was terrible.

Thank you for your humane response to Pete's death, for creating room for the team to grieve and official acknowledgement that it was no longer business as usual. This is one of those moments that leadership really matters. There's more to being a leader than shipping a volume of features, you are also an important figure in the lives of your team and they need you in a time of crisis.
Disclaimer: I'm about to disclose some personal information so will probably burn this nick shortly.

I am slowly going blind (long, boring story; only relevance to the topic is during a discussion with the eye-guy consultant he mentioned that he had had a close personal friend of his kill himself the day after a night out and that he (the consultant) wished that he had been able to somehow sense that his friend was so close to the edge....

I looked at him softly and with compassion and said to him that there was no way in hell that he would have ever known or be able to sense something like that because the serious ones don't broadcast their intentions (simply because they don't want to be stopped from doing it).

My heart bled reading this article but having grown up in a life of violence (early start in Africa, a bit of a chequered past led me in to the world of I.T. (machines are better than humans... they can tell you why they are sick, what part(s) are broken and then either report a (1) Fixed or a (2) Not Fixed... any how, that's how I wandered into IT field mixed in with some ex military stuff including a lay-over in Dubai that lasted for two-weeks... the bloke at Heathrow customs glanced at my transit stamps and asked me where the fuck I had been for two weeks (10 day gap in departure from place {x} to arrival at LHR ....

I looked him in the eye and said simply ..... 'Good god, my arms are tired from all that flapping and those head-winds were a bitch!'

He muttered something along the lines of "f*ing smart-arses", stamped my passport and waved me through.

Whole point of the above? I dunno but nick & karma points burnt telling it.

If you take nothing else away from this – Please know that you likely would have had no way of knowing so please don’t feel guilt…. They made a decision and it was one that you (the loved one grieving) would have been unlikely to have changed even if you had have known. At best, you would be likely to have simply delayed it for a while.

I've spent my time on 2 wheels with way too much power between my legs, and I'm happy to report that I made it out alive.

It's a ton of fun for track, adventure trails etc, but for commuting, not having your body be the crumple zone is tough to compete with.
It's also a function of the finite resources available to us. You also need to factor in that we don't have arbitrary technology and never will. There will always be limits to our technology. I think the gist of the GP argument is something like:

Our use of technology is using increasing amounts of our planets resources (e.g. land), and is often questionably ethical (exploiting the other creatures we share our planet with). At which point you have to ask the question: is an expanded human population worth that cost?

Yeah but I do think there is merit in comparing Sweden to neighboring countries such as Denmark.

However, luck is also a factor that shouldn't be disregarded. If anything was learnt from the attempts of modeling the development of the pandemic it should be that the virus does not diffuse through the population in some idealized fashion. It's extremely messy and depends on local circumstances and sheer chance.

This can easily be confirmed by comparing different regions of countries. Despite similar regulations the variation is enormous.
'developing' is not the same as 'having'.

They still have some know-how based on legacy nuclear power plants and military reactors (which I'm guessing is what Rolls-Royce will build on) but at the moment they cannot build a civil nuclear power plant from scratch by themselves.

This is actually tricky beyond the design and certification. You need the whole industrial capacity as well. For instance, the French government has repeatedly made sure that a specific steel mill in the country remains operational because it is the only one large enough and with the required equipment to manufacture the huge steel domes encasing the nuclear reactor cores...
The current ability to produce so much food in the developed world using modern fertilizer and methods, despite their disadvantages, means the most common threat that challenged our ancestors (famine) is barely present in many countries where it was a continual threat since civilization developed. Only global warming and nuclear war pose a similar threat, and only the former is worse now than it has been in the past, even given present circumstance.

For the web developers who want to re-use their existing frontend skills of Javascript+HTML+CSS to create cross-platform desktop executables ... instead of learning a different GUI toolkit such as C++ QT, or C# Winforms WPF, or Java SwingGUI, Pascal Delphi, etc.

The op's links of Electron alternatives based on Qt do offer re-use of Javascript skills but I guess that's not enough of a compelling value proposition to gain mindshare.
Azov is one of the batallions there but your post is totally skewed. If your country is attacked and the KKK volunteer to fight, will you stop them from doing so?

Why should the western media focus on which troops fight on the Ukrainian side if we have a clear aggressor, the invading country of Russia. It is a bullshit narrative to say they are fighting Nazis. they are fighting Ukrainians, some of which may be Nazis, but so are some of the Russian troops.

That you demand western media acknowledge the absurd and made up casus belli of denazification is simply crazy. It means you bought into the Russian propaganda, whether you know it or not.
The “communications” branding has more to do with the prestige level and expectation of faster-paced short research notes. Usually opinion pieces are explicitly filed under a “perspective” track (vs review and original research track).

The hierarchy usually goes Nature, Nature Communications, Nature [field name] communications, then field specific nature-owned journals (which sometimes have higher status than the field specific communications journals)

This is really cool, but at odds with SSDs. They don't like all the write cycling, and at the same time, they can boot fast enough to not need persistence, and are low power enough that people just leave them on all day.

Lack of persistence could almost be seen as a benefit, because as we all know, most problems are solved by a reboot.

But I'm sure somewhere out there is a super niche application for this.
Few elderly patients who end up on ventilators for COVID survive, plus the process is very painful and causes permanent damage if you survive. So morphine actually sounds like a pretty good way to go, assuming there's some form of informed consent.
This is awesome. Are you considering support for internationalization by any chance? My daughter has been learning Chinese and she's been into manga recently, to boot. It would make for good study material.
I would assume methodological flaws. Just by looking at the number of authors and the publication date, the authors simply did not have enough time to control for area-specific factors for 191 countries and 252 subnational units.

Finland reported 53949 deaths from all causes in 2019, 55488 deaths in 2020, and 57343 deaths in 2021. (The figure for 2021 is preliminary.) The total increase from the 2019 level in 2020-2021 is ~5000 deaths, and a large part of that is explained by aging population.
If they go rogue with their patent portfolio, you’re still free to go back to non-GMO varieties, leaving you no worse off than before.
I’m starting to adopt a similar idea about non-urgent healthcare. I have found healthcare providers can not communicate costs when they have more than one procedure.
> adblockers, tor and whatnot can help with ads tracking

Ad-blockers only work as long as there's a majority who does not use them. If everyone uses ad-blockers, the system collapses. Furthermore, ad-blockers encourage a game of cat & mouse where both the provider and the consumer are constantly at odds, with nasty side-effects like alternative clients being forbidden, etc.

> you can't take back your privacy once you've given identifying information.

My argument is that you should be able to give identifying information without it being abused for nefarious purposes.

> You have no idea how extremely white this part of the internet is that we're currently on

Oh come on, there was no need to bring race into this. But hey, if that's your argument, I'd say that having a bunch of white tech-bros in the ad & social media industry control the entire communications infrastructure and social fabric of "non-white" (to use your words) nations is not better.

> Comparing not having credit card to having ads in your browser is ridiculously out of touch with reality.

Do you really think that ad-supported platforms just offer service to the credit-card-less third-world for free? No, they do so because there are advertisers who are happy to pay, and those advertisers in turn know how to get their money back (and more than that) from those people without credit cards.
Why is this for the FDA to decide, not the electorate?

We've had discussions about abortion for ages, yet here the FDA okays a human intervention just like that?
Why would a technology built on top of cgroups, a feature only available in the linux kernel, be created to "let mac devs do linux things"? In fact, running docker on Mac was painful in the early days with boot2docker.
Lets look at the stats - there are 26.2 million devs in the world, so hiring the top 1% means you hire one of the 260,000 top people in the world. That isn't a small number. Especially if you twist your criteria for what it means to be a "top" developer, as it is an inherently subjective label. I'm sure just about any company could create criteria to make it true, including something as simple as "We deliberately reject 99 of out 100 resumes."

So I don't put much stock in claims that that, and definitely don't think fitting into that label is a strong career goal.
I'm so very sorry for Pete's suffering and the loss to you and your team.

I hope I didn't imply that "cameras are required for distributed teams!!" I don't agree with that and you're right that it's super impractical a lot of the time.

I do hope to suggest that in-person team-building shouldn't be overlooked for the success and well-being of distributed teams.
I am curious how this pricing model affect the publishers/creators. I understand that from the consumer point of view, it looks quite appealing but wonder if for the players in the other side it would be the same.
Is the idea that in the long term there will be a bigger user base paying for this new model which translates into a higher revenue stream than the actual one even if they end paying way less compared to buying those titles individually?
+1 I hate cameras, and pushing social media was a source of mental health issues for me. Lost a couple of colleagues recently, who I had never seen, I don't think cameras would have helped. Especially not when mourning loss.
Face to face meetings are imperative, but not câmeras. Plenty of people are camera shy but just fine over dinner or a swift pint.

Can't understate the importance of breaking bread.
I've been working a Full Time Employee in the industry for over 8 years at multiple companies. Never once has HR done anything remotely useful to help me when there were family problems or tragedy, except maybe a couple weeks of paid leave.

But I would like to hear the take from a founder who built an HR team to know if maybe I am missing something.

I'm really curious if it's really different being an employee vs a contractor in that respect.

1. Just because he’s anti-anti-GMO, doesn’t mean he views conventional foods with disgust and buys GMO whenever he can

Oh thanks, I value my life more than other creatures'. Survival instinct:p
That depends in large part on whether a world population of 8B can be fed at the lower per-acre yields.

If the alternative is “everyone eats, but food is a little more expensive”, that’s OK. If the alternative is “billions live with insufficient food and 100s of millions die”, then I think the balance of the risk equation shifts.
Every single pig in Germany is checked for trichinosis upon slaughter, and the meat meant for raw consumption can only be sold the same day, with an unbroken cooling chain. This makes Mett completely safe to eat, as a lot of Germans do very regularly (me too!).

But obviously only eating raw meat doesn't sound very appetizing or nutritionally healthy.
Farmers on the Brink
Depends on what that particular company invoices its clients or customers for.

You want to contribute to building or maintaing that.
Or to kill.

We need to be really careful that in our haste to make progress in environmental protection and gender equality, we don't find ourselves heading down the dark path towards eugenics or self-extinction.
This is about suitability of meat as food. That falls squarely within the purview of the FDA.

Whether this is allowed to do to animals is not determined by the FDA. I am not sure what law does cover this.
I wish Ansible just had better data handling. Adding variable assignment plays and jamming things in Jinja is pretty clunky (if you want to, say, pull some data from a REST API and loop over a subset of the info)

You could always make an Ansible module but then there's the overhead to managing/installing that

Data wrangling can also make idempotent playbooks a bit clunky, too. You get into this 2-4 play "run check, reshape results, conditionally run play" pattern

Isn't it just wonderful when the country we most hate for having implemented different covid policies to the suggested by the establishments of all of the countries in the West, coincidentally, is also morally terribly evil, they were giving end-of-life treatment when unnecessary!
This topic is complex and multi-variate. Focusing only on one (whether that’s CO2 or pesticide usage) is not going to lead to generally productive debate.

We might both agree that pesticide usage alone should have a negative coefficient on whatever global fitness function we consider, but that a usage of zero pesticide is still sub-optimal.
> This failed, b/c bash can't represent an empty array!

It absolutely can, I have no idea where you’re getting this idea.
I feel like we have quite a lot of big projects on the go. Crossrail, Thames Tideway, HS2 phase 1, Hinkley C, Hornsea and Dogger Bank offshore wind farms and likely Sizewell C and Heathrow expansion soon too. Plus there are a ton of smaller but still big projects going on up and down the country.

Obviously major projects often run into issues. Being that we're a democratic, densely populated country with a lot of history buried under our feet, we perhaps face more political issues than most. Nevertheless, I think saying we can't do big projects is a bit of an exaggeration.
Agree on using excess deaths data.

Also, it'll be years before knockoff effects can be more fully assessed.
Only if you ignore other factors like demographics and population density of population / population-weighted density.

Countries should be evaluated based on performance relative to doing nothing not relative to other counties in very different situations. Niger has a median age of 15.4, Italy has a median age of 45.5 they simply have vastly different ratios of the elderly etc.

>> I've been working a Full Time Employee in the industry for over 8 years at multiple companies. Never once has HR done anything remotely useful to help me when there were family problems or tragedy, except maybe a couple weeks of paid leave.

I’m curious (genuinely) what the company could have done different for you in these cases? Personally I wouldn’t expect anything from the company other than paid leave/general empathy from managers with amount of leave varying depending on the loss (e.g. loss of a partner requiring more time than loss of a grandparent). I’m not sure what else I would want from my company or what they could offer.
There is some evidence that bodily-kinesthetic and musical ability does not correlate that well will g as other things, but they're still very correlated.

How people can feel connected as a team without even video I'll never understand.

It's hard enough to get a social "fix' over video. Audio only? No way. And I say this as an introvert who just knows that sometimes I have to take my "social medicine", because it's good for me.

Maybe you feel connected with only audio. I can pretty much guarantee there's someone on your team for whom you're just some voice with a label (name).
This hardly compares to what women on the pill have to go through, for years. Why are we so squeamish about this?
On the Postico 2 website I do use the word "native" to describe the app.
I agree with most of your points.

Please research solar and wind before switching, though. Until we have solved the problem of energy storage, in many cases, solar and wind actually tend to increase pollution, because they both rely upon polluting raw materials for both themselves and their batteries and need backup power, which to this day means gas.

That is unless you find yourself with a good problem set in which e.g. you only need energy while the sun is out (AC in the summer, maybe, or perhaps warming up water for your early evening shower?) or while there is wind (no example from the top of my head, but I'm sure there are good ones).

The patent situation, market capture, and change in biodiversity are issues secondary to the issues most are generally worried about when consuming and purchasing GMO foods and could be fixed with changes in law/regulation rather than having to do with whatever proteins the organism is expressing
I think your latter point is a bit different to the topic at hand.

Cannibalism isn’t widely seen as distasteful because of the suffering involved, but because you're eating people.

Maybe a better question would be around eating dog, dolphin or to a lesser extent, horse meat.
