Indeed it does! And the key lies in separating “defining work” from “doing work.” GTD’s “get clear” process involves going through everything in your inboxes (not just email but physical papers etc), and determining what is the actual _next action_ for this thing (if it’s actionable at all; some emails should just be referenced, delegated, or archived).

You log that next action in your system and move on to the next one, rather than doing the action t then and there (unless it’s super quick to do so).

By separating these two, you minimise mindset switching, and can be far more assured that you’re working on the right thing at any given time.
Very curious what the rest of the setups looked like for the 0.02% of people with a 1920 wide screen display back then…
I've found deformable silicone earplugs avoid much of the pain. You can get a really good seal without going much info the ear canal. You do need to find a decent brand though. Decent is subjective; most formulations don't seem to adhere sufficiently well.
I don't understand, in the US Samsung uses Qualcomm but it is the US where a lot of these Chinese phones are not available yet in Europe where I can buy a Huawei phone Samsung uses Exynos.
This post is rather cryptic but I assume Rachel is talking about the recent Cloudflare post that describes an outage caused by a falling shell pipeline:

https://blog.cloudflare.com/pipefail-how-a-missing-shell-opt...

“The fact we're talking about shell scripts for something critical means that the battle for reliability was lost a long time ago.”

This is a stretch. While I’ll quickly advocate for writing anything more than the most trivial script in something better than shell it doesn’t follow that using shell at all means reliability is not a concern. One could easily forget to check the exit code of the first program if the shell script was rewritten in C++, for instance. People are always going to make mistakes and saying “never use shell”, especially for a basic two-command pipeline, isn’t going to move the needle on reliability anywhere.
> The terminal just executes programs and handles pipes it seems. A terminal can be completely walled from the internet, and when you execute something from it, say, curl, then curl has it's own memory space and access layer outside the terminal, and just has it's stdio wired to the terminal.

As I said in my comment, even if you "wall" the terminal off from the internet, if it can make system calls on behalf of the user, it can still access the internet.

If a terminal has sufficient access to the host system to call `curl https://www.google.com` on behalf of the user, then it can call it without any user input.

There is nothing on the host machine that can authenticate system calls coming from the terminal application as "user-initiated" or not. This is similar to the warning that "you can't trust the client"[1].

In order to do that I would have to explain it all to my friend firsthand, to hear if they were ok with it.

And to do that I would probably need to know how they were doing at the job, for example I have a friend at a job he's been at for a few years and he has begun to be unhappy with it and is looking to get back into consulting. I could ask him something like this but otherwise I wouldn't because you are asking your friend to look like a chump at their work. (chump is an old fashioned word but I think it really applies here)

Oh yes, I was absolutely blown away when my gf showed me a PDF character sheet that she bought, which worked better than any of the proper apps (including the official website) made for this purpose. For all intents and purposes, it was an app - there was hierarchical content you could search through, setup wizards, automatic calculation... all implemented in PDF forms and whatever cursed scripting language Adobe inclues in Acrobat these days.
Those were most likely people with a motherboard with 4 CPU slots and with 4 CPUs plonked in there.

Google tells me the Apple Cinema displays came out around this time as well, so surprised there aren’t more 2560 wide users.
Southwest fares integrated with other airlines is pretty much the reason why I'd install something like this. Also, getting sued might be good PR, you could probably spin that into some great news coverage. Streisand effect.

You keep saying "that's insane" as if that's supposed to mean something. "Richest guy on the planet makes a capricious stock investment"... yeah, totally insane lol.

I won't go so far as to call you insane for not being able to imagine an edgy rich guy spending a lot of money for petty reasons, but I'll instead say that your refusal to even accept the idea as a possibility is a bit naive.
Just reading the title hits me as I never thought I'd get to a place where I wouldnt like where I work. It's been four years (longest IT job I've held in ten year career) but suddenly starting in 2022 I havent been paid by the same date I've always been and when asked the owner he said thats just how it is for contractors. Yet it's never been like that and I even noted to him paying me a week or two later then all other times/years causes stress I definitely don't need. He didnt seem to care cause I was paid even later in March and then i was offered a raise in Feb. which was to start March 1st per our conversation over Slack. In the beginning of this month (April) he said "oh sorry your raise is not effective to April 1st, I'm sorry." That was my first raise in four years as for me i'm not driven by money (he offered me a raise in 2020 I said that's ok im just happy to return/be brought back after 6 months away) rather a show of respect and that I am a value to you/your company. His actions to me say he does not value my contribution/work, so...
Apple and gaming did not coincide much at all then, and as I recall the cinema display couldn't be used with a PC without a weird adapter
First of all, your post is not invisible, just downvoted. Mine got flagged, meaning someone wanted it killed by an authority.

The way I see it, both MAGA and WOKE are ideologies that are more interested in attacking outgroups than really helping ingroups. Seems to me that Trump spent more time talkiing about immigration than helping the Americans that are negatively affected by immigration (while lowering taxes). I'm sure you agree with this part.

On the other side, I see WOKE as more interested in attacking white, conservative males (or some combination of the former), rather than helping whatever minority is their favourite. Case in point, BLM seems to only care about the black lives that are taken by cops. Black-on-black homicide seems completely uninteresting for them.

So how can this improve?`I'm old enough to remember the the Soviet Union, and when I was a kid, old people remembered Hitler.

In my country (northern Europe), everyone from moderate conservatives to social democrats realized that both Communism and Facism lead to terrible results. Facisim was completely off the table for everyone, possibly in part because we had been occupied by Nazi Germany for 5 years. There were some communists, but in fact it was primarily the social democrats who made sure they never achieved any real power. (who at the time were borderline socialist, especially in the 70s).

Actually, most social democratic parties understood that Communism is really an ideology of hate in the 1920s and 1930s, as far as I can tell, and it doesn't help much to use the same boilerplate and just replace the proletariat with some other, more modern victium group, the thought pattern is still based on hate and guaranteed to be toxic if it gains enough power.

This knowledge is still somewhere in the DNA of most social democratic parties in Europe, but it seems that countries who never had strong social democratic parties are not able to see the difference between the inclusive left (liberalism, social democracy) and the hateful left (hardline socialism, communism, and I would argue, hardline WOKE).

Part of the problem with ideologies like MAGA and WOKE are that they feed off each other, and make each other stronger. The more hateful each become, the stronger the other side will be. Trump pushes democrats towards WOKE and AOC pushes republicans towards MAGA.

In the end (EDIT: if the polarization doesn't end), the USA will have some Chavez or some Putin, or one of each in power, possibly a civil war. There are no good outcomes coming out of such polarization.
Your comment touched on something which was on my mind when I was writing my own comment. The problem of pain and suffering. A lot of modern 'success' thinking does not consider the difficulties of life.

I am inspired that you have remained true to your beliefs having battled, lost so much.

A dear 40yr old friend died of cancer last year leaving behind his wife and 3 little girls under 10. He was one of the best men I knew. His work colleagues spoke at his funeral of how good a man he was. A man who never lost his temper and clients requested him as he was so well respected. I hope at my own funeral similar will be true.
I use Gephi a lot with work - it's helped explain lots of network complexity to leadership teams. They don't typically understand when you talk about risks of a network partition or node failure, but you visualize it and suddenly it's much more apparent. The circle layout, for me, works best with larger graphs.

My only quibble would be a better graph search function and highlighting.
WebKit and Blink are two different engines. They split off 9 years ago. There’s no such thing as a WebKit monoculture. There may be a Blink monoculture depending on how much you care about mobile browsers, mobile Safari is still very popular especially in the US.
The privacy tradeoff is not Twitter's to make. The content was copied - while still available - and placed on another website. Twitter's responsibility is to serve or not serve content. If it cannot serve the content requested, for instance because that content was deleted, then they should not continue to alter the non-Twitter webpage.

Of course, the real problem is that the site administrator is allowing Twitter to run arbitrary code on their website. I have much to say on that topic, alas, it is the choir reading HN and they don't need me to preach.
I thought you were going to say "...and most importantly, delicious, conversation."
The real problem imo is twitter allowing people to delete their tweets at all. They need a no takesy backsies policy.
Interviewing just for competing offers is rude in the first place. If there's a 0% chance you'll take the job, don't interview. You don't own that prospective employer anything, but interviews are handled by employees who have limited time and need their company to continue to succeed.

Using a connection to get a competing offer is significantly worse. I don't think you should even ask.

If your friend works at the company, you're basically saying, "There's no way I'd work for your company, but I'd like to use you (and your company) to further my own career."

If your friend does not work at the company, you're asking them to spend their own personal capital on you, and they may not be able to use it again after you waste the company's time.
You mean the >10 tweets thread where you fail to mention CIO and CTO are both Russian citizens (merely mentioning residency is not the same thing)? I didnt try to "get you", simply clarified something obscured by the title of this whole threat stating Wodby is "US corporation" therefore how could anyone mistake it for one of “Russian companies”.
the problem is the opensource part becomes pure marketing. for example the documentation is always about how to do things the "pro" way and becomes useless and even feels sometimes hostile to people searching for alternatives

I'd rather say that you probably haven't seen a lot of modern, quality 2D animation out there. I'm 100% sure it's 2D, and other hints (like the fact that Delores seems to be an engine demo for Return of Monkey Island as the timeline matches perfectly) also point to it not being 3D.
Is that the key though? There's a lot of stuff I'd be quite happy if they didn't index!
I guess 2011 could be considered ancient now... My SL1 (100D) is from 2013 but I never thought of it that way. Of course it's a crop sensor so I guess that puts me solidly in the amateur category, but I also enjoy shooting manual. (More often than not I end up ruining shots because of it though...)

In my mind there are different kinds of professionals. Some, as you say, like to process lots of photos quickly. My sister-in-law shoots weddings semi-professionally and has Lightroom presets that she has built out to give her a quick jumping off point for the style that she likes, and sifts through hundreds of photos per session. Others spend a long time tweaking one or two exposures to frame or publish. Of course, if there was only one correct workflow, then we wouldn't have articles like this!
Ask HN: What books or courses can help build a strong base in Computer Science?
I am reading HtDP (https://htdp.org/) at the moment. I am quite liking its style. What to do after that? I want to build a solid base of CS fundamentals. Like programming high level as well as low level, different paradigms, algorithms, basics of TCS and other applications.

What are some good foundational books in each area that teach timeless concepts and not just some fancy tool that is currently popular?

If there are available online courses (not like those shallow ones in MOOC platforms) with public materials let me know about them too.
Generating value within the hypecycle around tech companies =/= developing value in the absolute sense, no?
Like most open source solutions, Scribus is so close to being usable, but ends up failing on the most basic of usability issues. Why can't I change the text properties of multiple text boxes at once? Why does text formatting reset when I delete all content in a box and start typing again? Why does the page stick the left side of the screen until I get to a certain zoom level when it starts being draggable again? Where are multi-color guides?
You don't need to use Twitter's JS to show Tweets. If you choose to use their system, you're subject to their rules. If you don't like their rules, don't use their stuff.

Calling it "altering the public record" is a little hyperbolic imo. If you want to act as a repository for the public record, you better use your own system. Twitter is under no obligation to retain this kind of stuff on your behalf.

I'm not trying to say that this is right or wrong, just that these are the facts of the matter when you engage with a company's code and terms of service.

Its the opposite of ivory tower, its simple analysis of complexity.

To make the argument that CISC had anything to do with anything would be, what if in mid-95s Sun, SGI would have released their own CISC ISA. That would have been literally crazy.

> Nobody, literally not one single customer cares how easy or hard it was to design and implement the CPU

The companies who produce them care.

> They only care how much it costs and how fast it goes.

Yes and I explained why x86 won based on that logic so I don't know what you arguing.

Instead of working on building internal self-discipline, you took a drug (Poor man’s cocaine). Once drug become less efficient, you will need to look for stronger stimulants. In the meantime, you will lose the ability to focus without enhancers. It is terrible to advise here.
I can only predict how much worse will the twitter get now that people will be able to edit whatever dumb shit they write in order to avoid backlash and retcon events.
I was wondering if this was about Petrolia based on the title! Anyone into camping should check out the Mattole Campground around that area. It's at the head of the lost coast trail, but there's no permit requirement and it's only a few dollars a night. There's a nice hike down to an abandoned lighthouse with some elephant seals nearby.

Omg... the thing about cited deleted tweets becomin a white glob, gives me some vibes of 1984's "rewriting history".
My experiences with depression seem mostly environmental. I haven't tried medication, but I do know that when I'm hiking and dancing regularly, my depression goes away.

Dance in particular changed my life more than once. It's exercise, it's social, and partner dances give you a lot of physical touch, which is great for helping balance your brain. If you can find a class to commit to for a few weeks, that commitment really helps get me out the door if I'm feeling down or numb. Two one hour classes per week was enough to dramatically help.

The best part is that if it doesn't work for you like it did for me, you still have a new skill and new community that can support you while you keep looking for what does.
There is a danger in casting a wide net. Many will mistake knowledge gained from a book as experience, but even experts are wrong (all the time).

My advice is to seek truth and be humble in accepting it, knowing that it could change at any moment. Don't try to be a teacher, try to be a humble student who is willing to share their knowledge.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
I might be the minority, but I have no idea what Hipmunk did and I only know Kayak because they bought Swoodoo (they did, right? And have they added features in the 4 years since I last used them?) - so maybe your intro text on the site should be clearer what it does and not sell itself as the "x but better". Yes, it says it's flight search, but not front and center.
There's also "anonymous memory" (as opposed to memory mapped from a file, which you could call "named memory").
Much like romantic relationships, professional relationships are a learning experience and every new one, you'll hopefully learn to value yourself more, and approach the relationship with your employer more pragmatically. Unlike romantic relationships, at the end of the day you'll probably realize a professional relationship is almost strictly transactional.

I guess a lot of people in tech have gone through the experience of getting a job straight out of college, working yourself to death trying to prove something (whether that's to yourself or your employer) and getting burnt out to some degree, or not seeing any dividends for it. These companies do a very good job at blurring the lines between expectations and what's realistic through the "perks" of the job and whatever flavor of culture reigns.
My primary want from a search engine is to not remove search terms I explicitly typed in and to point me to search results that don't have the end goal of wanting me to buy something, unless that's what searched for. It boggles my mind that search engines today assume I didn't actually mean the search terms I typed in.
Interesting, looks like it’s using a combination of hardware, vehicle checks, LoRa (Helium?), ML, and good old fashioned Humans for verification.

If they can scale it globally and at high frequency for imagery, that’s a very novel justification of crypto IMO. Looks like the Costco version of https://www.mapillary.com/
Honestly that would have been much better for the world.
You're presuming that the small majority in that subset , are not just choosing to silently suffer until death , and this could be for a number of reasons - as it is more socially acceptable, one side has got stuck with kids, they co-own property, share bank accounts, renting in cities is too expensive without a partner. Divorce is expensive (its not called divorce rape for nothing) and marriage is an extremely difficult government contract to exit from cleanly.
In my experience most modern QR decoders ignore the spec and gladly decode white-on-black codes as well. I guess people just started making them and then got mad when decoders couldn't handle them, so everyone just kind of went along with it.
Gwern’s site always reminds me of the Talmud (Jewish religious text), which also has a highly distinctive design with multiple “panels” and heavy emphasis of commentary and references. It’s also somewhat confusing and intimidating the the “uninitiated” reader! It is certainly memorable though.
Absolutely. My initial comment was using Rust as an example only. It also applies to Go.

But not to JS or Python, to be clear.
