I'm going to have to say that I'm generally, but only _partially_ in agreement with your list of examples. When talking about "best designs", I would definitely (but respectfully) disagree with the inclusion of StackOverflow, and GitHub. Specifically:

StackOverflow

Issues: mind-boggling bad layout (poor visual hierarchy, no clear organizing principle); inconsistent typography; too many fonts; weak affordances for useful functionality (filtering/sorting replies); hard to tell obsolete or ancient replies from newer ones

GitHub

Issues: quasi-random screen layout; hard-to-discover functionality; mystery-meat navigation; low-level behavior/affordance inconsistencies. (Editorial aside: this looks like the side-effect--or result(!), of a slavish application of an agile feature development model to the UI design of an application.)

> Is there any research that supports this claim?

Most people will redecorate their house, I don't think this claim requires research to support it. Why do people redecorate their house? Why do they suddenly decide they need a change?

Generally it's understood that people just get bored of looking at the same thing all day every day and that changing up the colours or style might make an old thing new.

Updating a sites style doesn't have to mean moving the ui to make it awkward to use, for example I have the latest version of Photoshop and I use the dark style because I like it over the old school grey I have used since the 90's but all the tools are still in the same place its the same software the only thing thats changed is the style.
I hated learning cursive as a child, and as soon as I could get away with it, switched to writing printed non-cursive letters. BUT, I'm glad I did learn it, as just an alternate way of writing, and if I ever have a child/ren will probably try to teach them if it's not being taught in their school (which it doesn't sound like is common these days).
Any PaaS provider likely supports Docker at this point. AWS Elastic Beanstalk, GCP App Engine (I think, not a GCP user myself), Heroku, and DO and Azure have some as well, I just don't know the name.

I have experience with Heroku and AWS Elastic Beanstalk, and both were very simple setups. Install the CLI, run the commands in the docs to push your image to their service, done. I think this should meet your requirements.
The problem is that once you expose any surface area for censorship decisions, some of the loudest voices point to it and apply "inaction is violence" (an appropriate concept in some contexts, I should say.) Because the Euphemism Treadmill is a real thing [1], there's always grounds to pressure companies to ban or steer people away from newly incorrect language.

I can see many asking: Why steer writers away from slurs but not "biological male"? Is everyone at Google just... unaware of what's happening right now? I find it hard to believe that there's no one there who can explain what's wrong with this term or how badly we need to raise awareness about it.

I find it weird how your first paragraph is correct, then your second paragraph kinda seems to ignore it?

The whole reason I'm interested is obviously not that lifting fuel a vanishing fraction percent of the distance is helpful. The whole reason is that with a full fuel tank that's already in orbit, a probe ought to be able to take off straight for a planet without having to wait for an energy-impoverished orbit to be available. Or take off on a much more energy-intensive orbit that involves more aggressive slingshot maneuvers, or whatever else; having more energy doesn't preclude using that energy cleverly as well.

I also find myself curious about what we could do with an ion drive... or set of ion drives... fed with lots of fuel. And maybe an RTG for power, or some other real power source other than solar (which isn't much of a source out there in the gas giants). Or fed by solar cells, but first it takes a swing around the Sun for the almost sole purpose of gathering solar energy and driving the ion drives with it. All sorts of interesting things become possible if we can just use multiple lauches.

>and every town are in a de facto competition for tax dollars,

So (mostly) turn off the faucet and make everywhere pay closer to their own way.

Not getting $1-$1.10 back on the dollar isn't gonna bankrupt rural areas. It just means you the yuppies will have to suffer through the state highway to the u-pick orchard being replaced every 12yr instead of 10.

The whole "pay taxes and then let whoever you paid them to give you them back with strings attached about exactly how you use it" model and designing to qualify for funding that said model incentivizes is exactly how you wind up with boondoggle sprawl. If places were using their own money things would look very different.
Indeed, and in some cases the experiences have gotten worse.

There's a Youtube channel named Technology Connections and he has several videos on this topic that I recommend. This one about Sunbeam toasters from 50+ years ago is particularly great:

Don't overlook that IF for some individuals can come with psychological aspects, such as the feeling that they're taking action, that this is something they are doing. This helps start the ball rolling toward a goal as opposed to doing the usual thing but not changing any of one's usual routine.
From the article:

> Intel stopped shipping the last vestiges of BIOS support in 2020 (as have other vendors, and Apple and Microsoft), so this is clearly the way things are heading - and therefore aligns with Fedora's "First" objective.

You may not have seen many computers yet without legacy BIOS compatibility but this is going to be the norm for new computers very soon.
Today, for sure, the phone is dead. But it could come back.
That seems the opposite of true. They have pretty standardized certifications in the field. CISSP is much more consistent and predictable and known than random sampling of leetcode questions. Of course, you don't need to score 100% on the exam to pass it, and not being familiar with the content of the exam, I'm not vouching for it or anything. But it is effectively the equivalent of something like a CPA or CFA that Software Engineering has no analog of.

Yeah, one group of "protestors" can take over a small section of a city, push the authorities out, loot and riot. But another "protest" gets a little out of hand and it's an attempt to overthrow the government.

Trump lost, can nobody see that continuing to talk about him is counterproductive? On both sides!
Italicized cursive was what was taught in Swedish primary schools while it was still part of standard education (meaning at least through the whole 1980s), and I suspect it was the same in many other European countries.

I was taught to write in cursive in France, a quick google seems to show it has it's own style.

But I always remember, I moved back to the UK when I was 8, my literacy skills were far higher than my peers in my new primary school. My new teacher did not like my writing, said it was too small, took away my pen and told me start writing with a pencil.

I was pretty good at cursive (so I thought), I still use it on the rare times I write but sometimes feel I need to print letters in case someone has to actually try and read it, so I pretty much just use cursive for my own notes, and it is messy as hell now. I forgot how to do all the nice capital letters they had too.
You’re missing my point. Perhaps I should’ve said “interchangeable” instead of “related”. My point is that it makes you an outsider. A recruiter that assumes you know JS simply because you know Java is quickly dismissed for good reason—despite any historical merit.

This is similar in architecture circles. If you mix up “brutal” with “brutalism” you’ll be perceived as a clueless outsider. I’m sure there are architects out there that argue they are related, but without addressing this faux pas head on it makes the author seem ignorant.

I’m married to an architect and have seen this dynamic played out a few times. If you want to make an architect cringe: call brutalism “brutal”.

> Most non-architectural hand-writers write the letter “P” with a single stroke: draw a small loop and extend the side downward to form the stem. An architectural hand-writer writes the letter “P” using two independent strokes: draw a small circle, lift the pen, and then draw a vertical line tangent to the left-side of that circle, extending downward. The resulting glyph is neat, deliberate, and replicable.

What about those of us who draw the stem first, and then the loop ?
> at a certain point and a certain level of stress you stop being able to do it

You're assuming that stress tolerance is at a fixed level in all humans, and that everyone who still "maintains sanity" must have lower absolute stress.

Stress tolerance is relative.
> where it was touched they mostly hit military targets

Eh? Destroying upwards of 50% of residential buildings (apartment blocks) apparently counts as hitting military targets?

But I agree on the role of Space X.
Hunters were the bulk of the original conversation/nature pushes historically, since they want lots of outdoor space and large animal populations. They bumped heads a bit with preservationists, but at the time most people felt nature was something to be conquered or done away with in the pursuit of progress (up until shockingly recently, frankly).
> blue-pill STM boards

Those are useless for practical application.

64 KB of flash and 20 KB of RAM on a stereotypical STM32F103 (edited to add weasel words: that's what a blue pill is, correct? I don't actually use them.)

Remember these are not PCs where you slap in a bigger SSD or another stick of DRAM.

I have a F767 dev board on my desk. Kind of the same family, 'F' series anyway, and it has 2M flash and I believe 768K of SRAM.

My latest simple application build (built while posting this) ended up 228744 bytes of flash and 142119 of sram.

What kills modern microcontroller storage is every thread has its own fixed size stack so 1K there, 16K there, pretty soon you've got a lot of RAM in use if you go thread-happy, and on the flash side like every civilized embedded device it has MCUboot so 2M sounds like a lot until you partition it into two bootable partitions for OTA upgrades and MCUboot itself takes 64K or 128K or whatever, and there's a big fat (not FAT32 lol) partition for non-volatile config storage. It doesn't matter what RTOS you're using they all seem to be about the same size in the end, FreeRTOS, Mbed, or Zephyr.

Another point worth making is peripherals, I'm pretty sure the F103 doesn't even HAVE the capability to connect ethernet whereas I'm doing OTA upgrades using wired ethernet using the F767.

Note that for decades now, I guess, its been possible to build a washing machine or a lithography machine as an arduino shield or raspi shield, but nobody does that. The part that would not be a boon would be FCC certification, UL certification, and whatever other safety certifications a product requires.

With respect to washing machines as a homeowner I have had to do some repair work on multiple dishwashers and value engineering is the rule, if it corrodes out in five years needing replacement from the point of view of the mfgr that's a "feature" not a bug. So I've never seen a conformally coated washing machine PCB although I'm sure they exist if you don't buy big-box store garbage. Let me remember... Some piece of trash from Sears from 15 years ago used to ship with mosfets having too small of a heatsink and a voltage rating about 5 volts higher than line voltage and an underpowered pump so the user was encouraged to use the water heating mode in operation to keep the water as hot as possible for the anemic pump resulting in the mosfet blowing out every year or so, replaced the PCB under guarantee about three times and tossed that POS. Got a Bosch from horrible depot and that one has a pump that somehow is anemic AND sounds like a screaming jet engine bearing after a year of use, on the third pump now and just ignore the incredible noise. I'm told for eco reasons the new greenwashing dishwashers use 10% less water but don't work at all so you have to run them three times to clean the dishes resulting in 3x the wear and tear (good for mfgrs) and roughly 170% increase in environmental damage over a non-greenwashing dishwasher.
> rigorous one-year study in which people followed a low-calorie diet between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. or consumed the same number of calories anytime during the day has failed to find an effect.

Duh? The reasonable mechanism of action for IF is that it's a tool to consume less calories.

If the study's IF group is eating the same number of calories as the control group as part of the study design, this is the expected result.

> “These results indicate that caloric intake restriction explained most of the beneficial effects seen with the time-restricted eating regimen,” Dr. Weiss and his colleagues concluded.

Yeah! That is the whole point.

> when subjected to a properly designed and conducted study — scientific investigation — [IF] is not any more helpful than simply reducing daily calorie intake for weight loss and health factors.

Yeah! People struggle to "simply reduce daily caloric intake," though.

I exercise, meditate, eat mostly healthy during the week, sleep 8 hrs, and no caffeine in afternoons on most days.

My mental health is still not great. I couldn't imagine where it would be if I didn't do these things.

I've recently started therapy and I can definitely say it's starting to help. As a founder, I'm simply burnt out of having to make so many important decisions.

One of the most helpful things about therapy for me is being able to vent unfiltered and letting go of the responsibility to decide what is going on with me and what to do next about it. Very freeing to be vulnerable and not have to be the one on top making the final decisions for a moment.
Yes, not only that, but the patients were obese. I think 16:8 schedules can work well to help maintain a healthy metabolism, but if they're obese already, they'd need to completely reset their baseline (ie longer duration fasts) to achieve the results.
Oh god. Look. I'm sorry. You're right, obviously. And I am wrong and of feeble mind.

But please, make the libertarian Gish galloping stop.
While it's true that the government (obviously) cannot supply equity and is capped at 174k (by law capped at a senators salary), they can try to make it up other ways. Providing free room and board (or funds for the same), paying higher education costs and providing free healthcare. Also, allowing those benefits (and a healthy percentage of your income salary) to continue into retirement.

There is also the fact that they have more take home pay then you might expect, because government salaries are exempt from FICA taxes
Which Linux? I can't reproduce on Fedora 36 GNOME/Wayland.
This headline is misleading: no benefit. I'd have to say this is flat out incorrect.

Other comments mention bringing you back into your circadian rhythm: yes. I always sleep better when I do not eat late. Having the last meal around 5pm (don't eat after 6) is my personal imaginary cut off point. If I'm with others, I'll probably eat later, but alone I'll stick to it.

The other day I had a big lunch at 2pm and didn't eat after that. I survived. Was I hungry when I went to sleep? Yes. Did my hunger go away reasonably quickly? Yes. Did I sleep well? Yes. Was I starving in the morning? No.

Let your body feel hunger every once in a while. Especially if you live in an industrialized area where food is available at any hour and you have the disposable income to afford it.

Sure, many companies have this problem. But does Netflix? They have been making a profit for quite some time. They PE ratio is 20, which is not high compared to other companies. Do they need to grow to be profitable? If they can cut costs a bit and stabilize subscription levels, they should be fine. What am I missing?
Variant is a very abstract concept mostly for humans, programs pay no attention to it and serialize all kinds of UUID the same way.
These were just 191 units, of which 135 were foreign workers who would have little sway anyway. If 80% of all land in SG is already held in lease from the government (and perhaps 80% of housing stock) in the ~ 60 years SG has been a nation state, more and more leases will come due very close to each in the future with greater and greater potential for a gap between housing supply and demand. This even assumes people will simply accept it. Sure, perhaps this might even work in the very specific context of Singapore, but I don't think this could work in the same way in the West.

Technically yes, but I would argue that words “Java” and “JavaScript” have as much to do with one another as “car” and “carpet.” I think most of us have run into a clueless recruiter that assumes the languages are interchangeable or even appropriate for the same applications.

BTW, is it good to keep yourself hungry for some periods of time during the day?

Now as I'm starting feeling hungry I'm not going to eat for quite some hours because I guess this is going to be good for health and weight loss. But a colleague of mine says hunger will drop my metabolic rate and I should avoid it by eating regularly.

What the heck is a “standard leetcode bar?” Who does leetcode to prove their worth as an SWE?

I know plenty of leetcode aces that couldn’t work on a real world application if their lives depended on it. Leetcode might test the ability to write some academic algorithm from some college textbook, but it doesn’t test real world.

There is a reason many top companies don’t use Leetcode or HackerRank: zero prediction of real world skill or systems thinking.
this sounds like a GREAT science experiment for a kid.

I think it matters quite a lot that the distro in question is Fedora which is by design forward looking and kind of a testbed. They have been shipping Wayland as a default since 2016 when it still had countless of hardware and software problems. Part of the diversity of the linux ecosystem is that distros can be opinionated.
