The combination of fashionable and durable doesn't make sense: fashions change quickly, so why should an article of clothing outlive the fashion it was meant to serve? To embrace durability in clothing — which I would far rather remain a choice rather than be mandated — you have to embrace social durability, that is, looks that are socially acceptable but not fashionable.
Yeah - this kind of thing makes me think I might benefit from it. I get a very positive response to coffee (reducing anxiety, helps reduce compulsive tics, increased focus).

My skepticism is that I suspect everyone shares the benefits you describe when they take the meds. Maybe I'm wrong about that, but I haven't really seen compelling evidence otherwise (people will just state it affects non-adhd people differently, but that doesn't seem to be the case imo).
7% gap among young people? Do you have a citation for that?
It being your fault in the sense of "you know you made a mistake and you're committed to remedying that mistake" is fine. What we don't need is "you know you made a mistake and now you must endure abuse and have your job threatened over a mistake."
How is the Russian state so effectively able to hide these types of things from its population? An independent study showed that Putin's approval rating went up, not down, and it's in the 70's. Russians believe they're fighting fascism, that Ukrainians are Nazis, and that they're welcomed as liberators.

But bodybags don't lie, and there's hundreds or maybe thousands of videos that show the opposite of the above narrative.

How is Russia able to withstand that? Is it cultural ? Or are we the ones not getting the full picture here?
Yes, something along the lines of "I made a mistake" or "what I did was wrong". I am not talking about accidentally bumping someone and saying sorry; those really are shallow and just about being polite.

So here is an example of how I want to to say "sorry" to others. I was rude and not contributing to the conversation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29835478
Steelmanning their argument, an ideal output would consist of every possible float in [0,1] occurring with an appropriate probability -- some of those vanishingly unlikely. Kind of like how randint() should be capable of returning every possible integer rather than, say, every multiple of 64.

It's fine to counter that most of the time the difference wouldn't matter or that it might be problematic to compute for some reason or another, but I don't think it's reasonable to critique the idea on the grounds of the result not being uniform when they didn't actually ask for each float to have equal probability.
> I don’t get how losing access to the software I need to do the things I need to do - have spent quite a bit of money on - and a lot of time learning - gives me ‘control’.

We're in a discussion about how you can get Windows to do the things you want because of user hostile decisions made by Microsoft.

> It’s actually that Linux is controlling me and what I can do. :/

I don't think it's called "control" when it's due to an unconscious agent. Life is not "controlling" you because you will die one day. It's how things are. You can influence it, like living longer by not smoking, or porting over software to linux, or trying stuff out with wine or sharing how it works.

> It’s completely privilege if you happen to be in the minority that can find the time and value loss that switching to an OS that doesn’t allow you to run any previous software you’ve used somehow works for you.

You're making the fallacy of thinking that switching OS means you'll loss all software, which is absolutely wrong. Unless you happen to only use desktop apps that only work on windows, which puts you in the minority. A good part of Excel works online for example, same with most of Microsoft Office. Alternative also exists. And again, considering the post we're in, people are frustrated at windows, they're already spending quite some time and energy in trying to fix things or being frustrated at things.

You and everyone else are free to invest their time however you want. That doesn't mean it's the correct or best decision. There's nothing about that that's privilege. Some people work with Excel all their life yet refuse to learn more of it, even when they are offered formations at work. That's not lacking privilege. And again, it's perfectly fine if they don't want to do it. But the people that instead learn more Excel are not privileged in any way.

Edit following yours:

> The average person literally knows the like 4-5 tasks they need to do on their computer and they don’t want to know or learn anything else!

I'm glad we agree that it's in their power to do it and that they actually refuse to do anything about it. If you consider windows to be becoming too anoying (which is what this whole thread is about) and keep complaining and not doing anything, this is not because of a lack of privilege. This is on you. If windows is working fine for you, great! I'm happy to hear it! Same for MacOS. However, people are having issues frequently with closed source OSes. This one about windows, a recent one about MacOS: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30864613. For them, switching might be a solution.

I'll add that I don't really see the point of editing your comment to be even more snarky and less based on facts that it was before. Maybe reading the guidelines again would help you?

I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case. IME you're better off either going from scratch, using gentoo, or using a different distro rootfs if they have appropriate binaries and just maintaining a custom kernel.

You are just wrong. Some of your data such as health data stays constant throughout your life. Especially for guys living with chronic conditions. Your key identifiers stay the same too. E.g your phone number etc. These are then used to re-establish your advertising identity. This theory that old data declines in value couldn't be more wrong given that the "old" data is never deleted. Just waiting to find its original purpose.
it is not the main point but requiring the manufacturers to repair an item after 50 years cannot be done.

the factory that built that refrigerator heat pump from the 70' is unlikely to still be making it.

as of today it would be already a big improvement if the was a law saying: "if a part is no longer produced or sold by the IP owner then it is legal to recreate and sell clones of that part"

Helium reached a scale orders of magnitude larger in 1/5th the time. As TTN is a community effort it can't really fail in a traditional sense, but it has been lapped several times over at this point.
In my experience, working at a "classic" Japanese engineering firm, scapegoating was discouraged.

During postmortems, we would often decide something like "Chris made an erroneous assumption that the fix introduced no bugs." (That's a classic "oldtimer" mistake, BTW. I make it all the time -I'm a slow learner).

Absolutely no blame would be affixed. It was really important for Chris (that's me) to assume Responsibility for the error, and the team would develop a solution.

This being a Japanese company, of course, said "solution" usually ended up being another punchlist item, like "Perform complete regression tests for even the smallest bug fix release," etc.

I'm not thrilled with people using "hero programmer syndrome," or "bus factor" as an excuse to write naive or deliberately dumbed-down code, though.

Sometimes, a program needs to be maintained by skilled, experienced, well-paid, and motivated people. If a company insists on developing code, using advanced techniques, then turning over maintenance to junior staff, or do a bad job, writing a program, because they want it to be maintained by the absolute cheapest programmers possible, that's a problem.

I predict that we will see the development of artificial wombs in the next 10-15 years and combined with rudimentary genetic modification this will result in a baby boom from the middle and upper class.
I have some paradoxical feelings about "blameless" retro culture that I'll try to sum up.

In general, I'm in favor of the approach. I don't think singling people out and bullying or shaming them for their mistakes ever works. I think most well-intentioned engineers will already beat themselves up plenty for making a serious mistake, and they don't need any encouragement to do so. I know I do.

On the other hand, there is a red line. At a place I worked, a DBA was let go after he repeatedly brought production down for 45 minutes to an hour at a time by running intensive queries of his own design for data-gathering, in some cases, after being explicitly told not to do that against the prod database. This was a person whose job description required him to have access to prod.

There were process problems, maybe - being allowed to run whatever queries you want on production under your own authority, sure - but his cavalier attitude towards a production environment was still unacceptable. Process can only help when people are well-intentioned and doing their best; if people are malicious or negligent or just not good at their jobs, adding more process to get around that only makes things worse.

Right after we execute whoever invented resign codes, so that I have to check which part of plastic packaging from the super market uses which exact type of plastic, and have to cross-refrence if that plastic is reprocessed by my particular local authority.

After that we have to get the people that get government subsidied for reprocessing, but their reprosessing is to ship our plastic illegally to poor nations where they are dumpled in the ocean
Yeah shitty managers exist. I was a lead when one of the engineers shipped a debug build that made it past App Store review. (Our debug builds were obvious). My manager says Mike (name changed) isn’t cutting releases anymore.

I say Mike is cutting releases because he’s now the one person I trust on the team to not fuck it up.

If you need it in writing so you can fire me if mike fucks it up, let me know.

Manager mike and I all cut the next release at Mikes workstation with him knowing my ass was on the line if we shipped another debug build.

Mike never shipped another debug build.
Looks like if this trend continues to grow we will be talking about the wage gap in a different context in the future.
Pretty sure the "matter of opinion" bit is implied in a comment like that. If you need it clarified, no, I have neither empirically demonstrated nor formally proven that Nevermind is a better Nirvana album than In Utero. I merely know it to be the case. :)
Before I jumped off the GNOME ecosystem altogether, I used (and really liked!) Regolith on most of my devices. If you're new to Linux but want an out-of-the-box TWM setup, this really is the way to go. If they make a rolling-release version sometime I may have to give it a whirl again.
This is click bait ,it is not an ad. You can think like notification, where you are prompted for opening the app , based on end credits on actual video which is used as an ad.

This is nothing new , second screen technology is now 10 years old. There are multiple ways

1. Gen 1 ,was more like Use audio cues from TV with phone or remote mic picking up for showing relevant ads
2. Gen 2 ,Use ACR (automatic content recognition ) to identify what you are watching and do ad analytics or present ads/ notification to devices using same wifi/login etc.

To escape from any of these , you need to disable ACR and smart recommendations in Roku, LG, Samsung , Vizio, Fire tv etc.. or buy a dumb Tv.

Almost all smart tv have one or more ACRs. They do a screengrab or audio grab every few seconds and send to check fingerprint to identify what’s watched. Also every video you watch from streaming platforms have tracking Id inside from Nielsen Gracenote or something similar and reports back the data as you watch them along with information of which devices it’s being watched on.

So technically it can identify your video that’s being played on tv - is from any pirated website or torrent. HDMI CEC also can coordinate to recognize if it was played from a real Blu-ray or not. Might be able escape if you go HDMI without CEC on smart tv, or go to same argument buy Dumb TV.

Put it this way , As long as you are using internet connected devices/TV , you are not escaping tracking what you are watching.
But we're talking apartments in this thread, not SFHs. Places where a single developer comes in and upzones a parcel to create affordable rental units. The context of this thread does not seem to refer to buying a large multi-acre tract of suburban undeveloped land and then building a bunch of individual homes; it seems more to be buying an individual parcel of in-fill development and then turning it into an apartment building or complex.

Long-term, the trend in most built-out metro areas is that SFHs are going to become a luxury good for the well-to-do, and most of the general population will live in apartments or condos. This is simply because of land availability: if it's built-out, there's no more land available for new SFHs, so future population growth will depend upon suburban tracts getting converted to denser multi-family dwellings.
I’ve seen “cyclopean” (lower case) used to mean “huge” in fiction a few times, especially in fiction set in the past.

Interestingly, this dictionary lists three meanings of the word: https://www.thefreedictionary.com/cyclopean

The first is “referring to a Cyclops”. The second is “huge”. The third is in reference to these types of (megalithic) ruins.

I wonder if the first meaning is the original one, and the others evolved from that meaning as our understanding of human history changed.

They don't try that hard to hide it. Russia had an open internet until this month and still foreigners can participate in unblocked social networks (unlike China where not only everything has been blocked for over a decade but they make it very difficult for foreigners to participate or even read discussions). Russian propaganda works by assaulting credibility in general. Just imagine if every network and authority in the country is constantly calling everything "fake news" then basically people decide nothing anyone says is that believable, and they are free to believe whatever they want or what makes them feel right.
Just writing knowing that someone might read it inspires better writing. It's like when you think about a problem really hard, come up with nothing, then spend an hour formulating a perfect StackExchange question. More often than not, the process of writing for other people leads me to the answer, even without sending the question.

Same with blogging, except I can publish any old crap on my blog without moderation.
While knowing how to speak forcefully is certainly a valuable skill to have, almost every situation I face in life is better approached with friendly confidence.

I've met a few people who, when a cashier or waiter makes a mistake, think they need to take control, and demand a resolution, and I think they are just being needlessly unpleasant, and get worse outcomes on average because they're being disrespectful.
UML doesn't scale at all. Its best use is to produce slides. It's less clear than a freeform whiteboard diagram, and actively obstructive to accomplishing a task in practice.

OP's tool has at least the potential to scale to a real codebase in a way that UML could never.
Also, large-scale geo-thermal. We don't need volcanos like Costa Rica to do it. We will have to dig deeper so it will cost more but it's still a great solution. It might also work as a battery to store excess solar and wind energy for use at night and when the wind isn't blowing.

I'm not criticizing the values, which I think we definitely could learn from - imagine an artist today putting art and integrity over money! - but the way they are expressed.

Cliches signal to me that the speaker doesn't mean seriously what they are saying - they haven't thought enough to construct their own language (and at more than a superficial level, it's unlikely the cliche represents anyone's serious, nuanced point-of-view); they only have a vague notion and copy and paste a phrase that matches somewhat.

When Nirvana was at the height of their popularity, imagine all the people approaching them, saying what they thought Nirvana wanted to hear. That is how Albini's letter reads to me: A lot of cliche demonstrating that Albini didn't really think these things. But obviously Nirvana knew their values, their business, and the situation far better than I do now, and they hired Albini. Also, someone else in this thread was a record producer at the time and sees the letter as significant, and we should probably listen to them too.

The last time I installed Windows 10 and then downloaded all the updates, the default behavior was simply to block the download of any .exe files. This includes Firefox & Chrome, so I didn't run into this issue at all. I just couldn't download any executable files.

After navigating a few mazes of menus I was able to disable all this behavior.
> Why do we define justice as everyone having the same

Envy. But it is not a new feature of human nature. So my question is: Why is it only now (for about the last 100 years) such a popular and successful ideology? What has changed?

Is it mass media? Or is it not a new thing at all, but things happen at a bigger scale? Meaning, before you'd maybe get envy bursts that'd devastate a village or a tribe, and that'd be it, now you get it at the country and planet level?

While we as employees have more leverage to work remotely than we've ever had because of the pandemic, companies still have power to dictate work location and they know it.

It would not surprise me if down the road we get some kind of leak or revelation saying that top management of many large corporations colluded to force everyone back into the office. Of course that's just speculation at this point, but it really does feel like there's no good reason to force people back other than justifying their office space expense and a reason for middle management to exist.

The pandemic has let the cat out of the bag in terms of working remotely and being productive. But some c-level executives are stuck in the past and want to return to it.
Growing our Economy Won’t Make Us Happier: Philosophers have argued for C (cont)
From the real world, I can assure you this is entirely untrue.

It may seem like that if you’re living in a super high cost of living city and everyone in your work social bubble is in their 20s and early 30s, but step outside of those small bubbles and age groups and there are plenty of happy parents.

This whole “lol parents are dumb” meme really needs to die.
As a high school teacher(14-18 year olds) who actually spends a lot of time trying to interact with students and get to know them, I keep hearing this kind of statement:

There is no room for mistakes.

Students cannot miss a homework assignment, fail an exam, not achieve an A, make any kind of faux pax on social media, etc…

And then you combine this with many adults in their lives telling them, I got into UCLA, why can’t you? Just work harder, or just not caring about their mental health.

They see this never ending cycle of

turn the assignments in and then go to sports practice(where again the competition is at such a high level) and also, get a job, because they want or need money.

Many are going to bed after midnight every night.

Something has to give.

This is really disturbing to me.

How are they doing living up to this? Many are living up to it but the cost is substantial, and the others that have no hope of being this are giving up.
You're also in the extreme minority. Most users don't have close to thousands of dollars in paid software and often what they do have is something like Microsoft Office that has alternatives or easy options to get working like the proprietary paid software Crossover (that's right! Linux has proprietary paid software!).

It's just as tiring to hear "Linux is unusable, it can't run X". For you maybe it can't work but it can work for a lot more than just coders.

Honestly I feel like desktop Linux market share would be a whole lot larger if the defacto office suite wasn't owned by the biggest OS maker...

Open source code was a very new idea, perhaps going back no further than the first SHARE meeting 31 years earlier in 01955, but imposing legal restrictions on source code distribution was an even newer idea.

(But what about open-source numerical methods? Well, EISPACK had been published in 01974, 12 years before NR came out.)

Typing in code from a book was perfectly reasonable.

The issue today, though, is not what restrictions the book's copyright holders imposed, or purported to impose, in 01986. The issue is the restrictions they impose today.
