Here are a few steps you can take.

- Regular physical exercise(running, hiking, workout, sports, etc)

- Some form of meditation practice (Checkout tm.org)

- Therapy/coaching where an experienced person can give you tailored advice

- Investing in improving public speaking skills

- Improving knowledge and expertise in one or more areas

- Taking on projects(work or personal) and showing impact to others

Don't try to do all of them at once but maybe take baby steps every day. Consistency is more important in the long term. During this process, be very kind to yourself. This is where meditation will help you to see your positives and negatives as an observer without being judgmental. If you stay it, you will improve and will see amazing changes. Good luck!
Its third, and major, drawback is that Python has a legacy in many groups.
Still doesn't make sense - there is only a single set of libraries - the ones cached by a user's browser, and since each library in that set is used by thousands of sites, there's no way to know which site it was cached for. For each version, there are certainly thousands of sites using it. Since I'm still not getting it, perhaps you could explain how a particular set of libraries is fingerprinted?

>And even then, net tax payers can all be considered to have paid for their own education, you never see a situation where poor people fund the education of rich people.

But the poor people paying for it don't get the money back. It's going to some other government program, not necessarily to benefit them.

>It is a problem if poor students gets tempted to take a low wage job instead of studying just to make money sooner, it is much better for everyone if they don't have to think about that choice, which is why students gets paid to study in Sweden.

Why is it much better for society? Most people don't seem to end up doing jobs that are related to their field of study. Sure, there are studies that show that people with a college education are better off than those without, but you have a self-selection problem there. People who have the capability to do well in college will already do better than the average.
Reliable sign that there is a labor shortage: employers are willing to take people off the street and train them at their (the employers') own expense.

Kaspersky quite conveniently scanned and uploaded NSA classified material. Then a few months later ShadowBrokers happened. No one is saying anything about malfeasance or complicity. But somehow the materials got out. To say the accusations are unfounded is untrue, especially when the accusations are just “we don’t trust them.”
Off topic but I just learned how an induction motor works. It’s basically just making eddy currents and pushing them around. So weird.
Interesting factoids in this article - electric motors consume a little over half of worldwide electricity, and there’s over 800 million sold every year.

Would be curious about maintenance on these motors. The bearings would be the first to go, right? Would that still be doable by a local shop?
Nah mate, you’re on your own for that one. I hope you’ll dwell on it though and try to understand how that’s a very meaningless comparison.
This article really reads like a parallel dimension turbo encabulator. It hits all the same notes, has a similar cadence and uses many of the same words. This might be my first experience with the kind of media that was parodying.

It's kind of fascinating.
> It seems like a lot of the answer is NumPy, which makes the question -- why did NumPy happen on python, not ruby?

One of Python's original use cases was as a macro/script language you could import into your C application. Adding python to your C app took a day or so, and a side effect often was you'd make a Python library out of your app's library and suddenly, you could write standalone Python that called your app's code. Because it was so easy to write a python wrapper for an existing C library, by 1995/96 when Ruby hit the scene, Python already had quite a bit of importable functionality. The first serious web framework for Python was Zope, and it came out in 1998. I think Rails was around 2005/2006, and it was really cool, but one of the rubs was Ruby didn't have the libraries that Python did. In reality, it's amazing how good Ruby and Python have been.
It was realizing I could train my mind/social abilities the same way I trained my body in the gym. In the gym, if your goal is to increase strength you build up slowly incrementing weights as you get stronger. The same idea can be applied to the mind. I realized I was very awkward in situations where I didn’t know people, so I started coming up with little workouts to train myself to be more comfortable with strangers- the easiest thing is to give complements. You’re in line to get a coffee, you see someone with cool shoes “nice shoes” and the person says “thanks!” Then when that gets easy, you increase the challenge.
I've likewise gotten better with decades of practice, but my biggest problem seems to be that my brain simply doesn't have enough overall "social bandwidth" to function normally in-person interactions. If I'm paying attention to your body language or tone of voice or gaze, I'm not paying attention to your words, and vice versa. None of it ever became "automatic" like it seems to be for most people.

I used Octave for a year when my institution's Matlab license servers were being improperly administered. (I had a lot of project code written in Matlab, but the license server going down on the weekend before a conference deadline with nobody available to reboot it until Monday was a dealbreaker.) The biggest stumbling block was that Matlab has a huge and heavily used proprietary package library, and a lot of my existing code, (official) tutorials and Stack Overflow code assumed these libraries were available. In Octave I found myself reimplementing the newer parts of the Matlab image processing libraries. This led to the discovery that the Matlab and Octave builtins for handling image data are subtly different, so I ended up having to run tests in the code and write different conditional flows to make it cross-compatible. There are also subtle differences in basic behaviors (was it variable scoping? file handling?) which resulted in some surprise and frustration.

Following the licensing and Octave debacle, all my latest code is written in numpy.

But that’s kind of like saying a calculator can never be as creative at solving math problems, because it will never have the visceral fear of failing an exam.

Well… yeah, I guess, but it’s not really relevant. We don’t need creativity in avoiding accidents; the solution space is small: accelerate, brake, and/or steer.

The machine knows the velocity vectors, accelerations, and sizes of all other objects on the road. That alone is a huge advantage over a human, which don’t look in all directions at once. You can probably drop the AI part altogether and have an always-running routine that takes over when collision is imminent based on relatively simple vector projection.

Avoiding collision isn’t the hard part here, adhering to the myriad rules (spoken and unspoken) we’ve set up is. I think that’s probably why we all cringe at the Tesla videos of it doing crazy stuff, but somehow it’s not hitting stuff very often.
In other words, you're conceding the point.

No, not a family. A Team. Being a member of a team requires hard work and that everyone pulls their weight. Bad players often get traded, and sometimes another team snags a good player. I don't like "Family" because families are (ideally) a place where you are unconditionally loved. Nope. At work, I hope to like my coworers. But we're not family. We are a Team. And no matter how much I like somebody, if they aren't pulling their weight, they're likely to get "traded".

"The Fall of Seattle"

Sheer yellow journalism and Sinclair-style chicken-littleism.

"Businesses on both sides of Third Avenue, a major thoroughfare, are boarded up."

It also underlies Cisco’s Unified Communications line of VoIP products, so many organizations are depending on it without realizing. Have about 10 instances of it running at my workplace alone.
Exactly: when it first launched, places like HN were full of optimism that it’d kill off things like PayPal, force credit card companies to offer better transaction pricing, etc. That sounds great to me but it definitely didn’t happen, and the design in combination with volatility makes that even less likely since it’s more like trading stock shares to buy a toaster.
The nerd in me wants to like the newer "more efficient" keyboard layouts, but as I progress in my career, the value of raw typing speed on one particular machine (or all your personal machines) seems to drop.

Being able to type on a peer or customer's machine, without struggling with QWERTY vs Colemak is definitely worth something. The problems you solve get more difficult and abstract, so you are writing more difficult but less code.

The big exception that I can think of is that RSI can really put you out of action, so some adjustments or investment in that area can pay off. I have a Kinesis Advantage2 that fits in this category. It took some time to get used to, and it definitely slows you down on every other keyboard once you are used to it, but I find the ergonomics to be worthwhile, even if I retain the QWERTY layout.

So is Russia and this is just politics and they have no public interest in mind - especially safety and reducing complexity. American companies are raking in obscene amounts of money everywhere and are leaving the local competition with no path to creating a business. When they cannot compete,they legislate.
Completely okay with it being restricted to a revenue generation or size of company.

I'd make the discrepancy of revenue generation because otherwise a company may just find itself full of contractors and not enough FTEs to qualify for having this 'right to speak with a human' (like Uber).

Seems like that philosophy is the user is not to be trusted. The problem here is that users in reality, not just philosophically, CANNOT trust snap because it will force updates (or dns trickery to stop it) that may cause a system to stop working.
Does it have something like git amend for local branches? That will at least allow the latest commit to be changed.

In case anyone is confused, git amend can amend the changes, not just the commit message. I didn't notice this for a while, and finally got around to reading about how it works. https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History
IMO the biggest difference is that that there is no longer a difference between binaries and libraries. Everything is a library. In UNIX there are a bunch of utilities which you just can't use from C. Also the idea of just passing data structures around instead of using a pipe passing streams of characters around is an improvement since there is no longer the need to serialize / deserialive it.
Yeah, I was hoping for a really detailed engineering-heavy article from IEEE but it came across more like an ad.

> Fast-forward to today. My company, Infinitum Electric, of Austin, Texas, has developed a PCB stator motor that fits a wide variety of purposes.

It then continues to sing the praises of this company throughout the article. There's nothing special about this article to me, which makes me wonder why people like it so much it's #1 on HN right now (genuinely curious, not knocking other people's opinions).
Well, I don't think it's "pretty much how disk storage is managed today," among other things because you don't have a multi-minute reboot process, and you usually lose some workspace context in a power failure.

The bigger advantage of carefully designed formats for persistent data is usually not succinctness but schema upgrade.

It's true that too much write bandwidth will destroy your SSDs prematurely, and that might indeed be a drawback of a single-level store, because you might end up spending that bandwidth on things that aren't worth it. This is especially true now that DWPD has collapsed from 10 or more down to, say, 0.2. But they're fast enough that you can do submillisecond durable commits, potentially hundreds of them per second. In the limit where each snapshot writes a single 4 KiB page, 100 snapshots per second is 0.4 MB/s.

If you have a 3-year-life 1TiB SSD with 0.2 DWPD, you can write about 220 TiB to it before it fails. So if you have 4 GiB of RAM, in the worst case where every checkpoint dirties every page, you can only take 56000 checkpoints before killing the drive: about an hour and a half if you're doing it every 10 ms. But actually the drive probably isn't that fast. If you limit yourself to an Ultra DMA 2 speed of 33 MB/s on average, while still permitting bursts of the SSD's maximum speed, that's 2.8 months, but a maximum checkpoint latency of more than 2 minutes. You have to scale back to 7.7 MB/s to guarantee a disk life of a year, at which point your worst-case checkpoint time rises to over 9 minutes.

The compassionate part was being emotionally receptive to hear and understand why I wanted to be there in the first place despite it not being his instinct about what I needed, to trust me that I knew what would be best for me, and to gently remind me—without pressure—that it would be okay if what I needed changed. I understand that’s a bunch of emotional nuance, which may still not come across. But that nuance can be really hard for even close friends to get right when the other (or both) are grieving.

If he had merely offered to let me go home—or, worse for me, insisted—I would agree that it wasn’t particularly noteworthy as far as compassion goes.

There is such a notion. You write a number on the equality sign saying essentially how many operations can be performed so 1+2 is equal to 3 if that number is larger than 0 (the special case of 0 is reflexivity, i.e. true equality). This is used a lot in some computer science stuff I've seen.

> just watching videos [...] (where the JavaScript takes a back seat)

If you're talking about media websites like YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Twitch and so on or even just videos on sites like Facebook, video streaming actually needs a lot of JavaScript behind the hood. Some of it even being already performance-sensitive today.
Ah, you don’t need to choose between collecting feedback to feed your growth, and a) and b). At least, in my career I found pursuing and considering candid reflections from others that I admire, on my behavior, has made me more effective in a) and b). I acknowledge it’s not for everyone. I also enjoy working with people that share this interest in learning how others perceive ourselves, it makes me feel cared about, imbues a certain empathy to our relationship, and helps us keep our egos in check. It matters more for managers than ICs, for obvious reasons. FWIW

> Forcing "cameras on" is... the covid-era version of "butts in seats" it seems.

I guess you mention this to give depth to your sentiment. No disagreement from me or any other commenter on this article on this statement! Something we all agree on for once :)
while in theory possible it would require a whole lot of change.

Also like kyle said apt and alike(all current package managers) cant generaly deal on file per file, basis package is as is all files included, so this would require a new package manager(or old one) with packages being a single file with no dependancies for specific package. This would require new base images if we used dockerfiles and you would need to know every library every binary your program needs. While on other hand leaving in all the cruft some copy in like READMEs LICENSE files and so on.

Benefit of docker-slim is that it is in many ways just a line in your already predefined CI/CD pipeline, therefore its just another step likely just working with already preexisting technologies you might use in your pipeline.

YouTube has a lot of great creators. And so does TikTok. But they seem to attract different types. The people good at making shorts just don't really use YouTube.
> Similarly, it has a few contractors, and every single one of those guys is treated like an FTE, with regular 1x1s, objectives, and personal development.

Maybe that helps point you in the right direction.

My advice: Just do your best, pick a direction that makes sense to you, be consistent with it, and be OK with changing your approach to work with a new team.

There's a free short course on Udemy somewhere from Peter Barker who is a professional voice over artist. That's worth looking up - there's a section that covers correcting and improving a lot of common speech problems, from stuttering, talking too fast, mumbling, and how to improve the resonance of your voice. Might be worth a look.
GitHub's button to update the current branch annoys me. It creates a merge commit back from the main branch to the feature branch. I would rather it back up the current branch and rebase it or something, or just let me do it the right way manually (rebase and force push).

What is your baseline? Android or the windows ecosystem? The latter is stable but has accumulated so much cruft over 3+ decades that it is very bloated to the point of being unusable. I especially hate the apple iOS keyboard. However, the competition between Android and iOS is insane and real and if that won’t get apple to innovate and improve quality, it is either impossible to achieve or the economics are not viable - even for 3T company.

My favourite thing about fossil is that the repo is a single SQLite database file so it’s extremely to just back it up or keep the repo in cloud storage. With Git I’ve always had problems with conflicts in the .git directory which messes things up, but fossil is a single file so it backs up to the cloud wonderfully.
