That sounds about right.

Im not saying it is the best job in the region, just demonstrate that blue collar jobs can still provide a comfortable living with such salaries.

I would expect it to scale by regional COL.
> As a proof for that, many successful sound engineers have been over 50 and still mixed legendary recordings.

Surely that has much more to do with artistic skill than frequency response of their ears. Having excellent hearing won't make you intrinsically skilled at audio mixing.

> Most people won’t hear good audio gear but that’s not related to age ;)

The relationship between age and hearing loss is incontrovertible. Hearing loss is cumulative, it increases with age. Some people lose their hearing faster or younger than others for a wide array of reasons, but nobody is completely immune to it.
Dunno man, sounds pretty fucking utopic to me. Sounds like they're the first generation to really get it after Tim Leary's failed experiment with forced consciousness expansion.

And the Boomers had hippy subculture. Was everyone a hippy? Plato complained about young people in his time too. For reference, I'm part of Gen Z, and no one I know doesn't want to work. It's just that everyone wants meaningful work. This article is ridiculous and unfairly generalizing.

It's a bit of a perfect storm. You have the rampant wealth inequality and abusive practices that came from decoupling worker productivity from worker compensation beginning in the 1970s with demography. 2022 is average year of retirement for the baby boomers, the largest generation. For at least the next two or three decades labor is only going to get more expensive.

> If a world champion level programmer makes a basic app in Vue, it will maybe be 20% better than mine, because... modern programming is all about providing obviously ways to do common things. There's not much variation possibly in something so completely technical.

Absolutely! What I believe is this design decision is the result of practice and experience.

> Instead there's just a small amount of base knowledge every coder needs, plus vague familiarity with frameworks, and a general sense of what will possibly screw you over later

Proposing that programmer needs only a small amount of base knowledge is a bit spicy proposal.

The reasons:

1. It undermines the actual result of having large knowledge base and familiarity with everything around computation. Sure, there may be limited concepts, but there are so many details behind these concepts. Think about it, there may be some historic reason to do certain ways of things. There may be fundamental concepts based on some rigorous proofs and maths. Or there may even be something so crucial that is yet to be discovered.

2. It's just that if we do something that doesn't involve these overall knowledge, doesn't mean the requirement is small. There is a lot of ways to do things and everything is dependent on problem at hand.

3. The rigidity and small base knowledge might have been the result to maintain a code base. But anyone who is careful enough, will definitely have large base knowledge at their disposal.

I’d just reply with ‘sneed’ but this isn’t Reddit.

My more thought out counter would be that every generation since the boomers had this said about them to my knowledge.

Even before the concept of ‘western civilization’ existed, you probably had older gens saying this about the youth of the British empire or whatever.
no, the person in question wasn't frozen even if the headline says so. Her body temperature was lowered quite drastically and that slows down any damage dramatically.

Actually freezing people without any type of antifreeze agent usually causes ice crystals to form and that damages cells in the whole body enough to make revival unlikely.

Modern cryo uses antifreeze agents but since the people undergoing these procedure are already quite dead & those agents aren't really conducive to life either most of the time its still unclear if anybody frozen that way can be revived in the future at all.

I wonder what was the design consideration there? If I'd to make a guess, the point of having key in a re-programmable memory (susceptible to such errors) could be that it could be re-programmed later - otherwise it could've been just hardcoded in ROM. Athough if the error was that it was a RAM copy of the key that's got corrupt, this might explain things - no one to reboot the machine around, huh. If re-programmability was a design consideration, it is interesting is that there was no key reset procedure (with another, "master" key) which is something one would want to use if the normal communications key is compromised or corrupted.
I'd say that's a bit harsh - they've been employing a lot of the Wayland, Pipewire and Gnome people for example. I'm pretty sure they've been involved in a lot more core Linux Desktop projects but those are the examples I could think of in a minute.

Ha! The reason I remembered the original comment was because, at the time, I wanted to find out who'd said it - it's such a great quote. So I did the usual DDG, then Alexandria, Google Scholar, Dogpile, then Kagi plus a few esoteric search engines and I found nothing. (But there were mentions similar to it when referring to "common law" in England.)

It's frustrating, but as far as search terms go (in the typical tf/idf indexing model), the most unique word is, um, system ... and that doesn't help.

Amazon is probably the worst offender. They paid below the rest of the industry while providing no benefits like other big tech companies. On top of that, the corporate culture discriminated against women, viewed people yelling at each other as normal behavior, and often had people crying at their desks or in the bathroom.

I can’t tell you how many mentees who would ping me on Chime (and Messenger before that) wanting to meet in person or get in a video call in tears.

yes, I understood what you meant by rules. I just don't come across many people complaining about those "rules of practice". If you've listened to reasonable amount of music, you already know that those rules are made to be broken (once learned, maybe).

The problem with the day of the week comparison is that, yes, they are arbitrary and you just learn them and be done with it, but with music the names are just the building blocks for a vocabulary/dialog about a creative process, and so you just don't throw down "play the 5th" the way you might say "it's Wednesday". Instead, that language is interacting with a conceptual process which the language doesn't mirror. If the four components of music are rhythm, timbre, melody and harmony, the last two are all about intervals, and almost none of the music terminology in the west reflects that.
The line you're talking about is part of China's UHVDC grid, which is all on land. The Chinese have invested more than $100 billion into this over the past twenty years, because they have to, all their power generation is far from their cities.

> “My dad got a job straight out of high school, saved up, and bought a house in his 20s,” said Anne Dakota, a 21-year-old receptionist from Asheville, North Carolina, who earns minimum wage. “I don’t even think that’s possible for me, at least with the current money I make.”

I think this is pretty much the whole story. It’s very hard to be motivated to work when you could save your entire adult life and still struggle be able to afford such “entry level” things as a house or even a new car. People are willing to save and/or hustle for 5-10 years to get material rewards, but beyond that it feels pointless. Why be miserable grinding for two decades just so you can get one hand on the ladder? Instead people look for ways to have a life they find interesting or satisfying now.

I loved the idea of this comment, so I read the article.

It says that men are more likely than women to take risks across several domains. This does not support the idea that men (more than women) are "risk assessors by nature".

The article also says that women and men are equally likely to take risks in the social domain... which probably includes marriage.

In general, I think the blithe characterization of men and women in this way does not move the dialogue forward.
They do, but not as fast as gamma rays. And according to which observer?
There's basically two things that happen with radiation in orbit.

* Ionizing dose weakens and disrupts crystalline structure. Wears things out / degrades their specs.

* Single, very high energy particles-- e.g. protons-- come in at high speed and change a voltage somewhere. This can have massively bad effects (e.g. it can, for non-radiation hardened parts, cause parts of the chip not meant to be a transistor to become one shorting power and ground-- this is a "single event latchup"). Or, it can affect the operation of one or a few adjacent bits of memory ("single event upset").

"They have exalted notions, because they have not been humbled by life or learned its necessary limitations; moreover, their hopeful disposition makes them think themselves equal to great things - and that means having exalted notions. They would always rather do noble deeds than useful ones: Their lives are regulated more by moral feeling than by reasoning - all their mistakes are in the direction of doing things excessively and vehemently. They overdo everything - they love too much, hate too much, and the same with everything else."

> my point is that elite rungs of society saying "Start a family and stick with it" is simply going to be irrelevant to a lot of the people the author is talking about. Would you disagree?

No, I don't really disagree with that. If it were just elites shouting down, then you're right. It was the manner in which it used to be conveyed that matters. The mass media is no longer propagating that messaging in the way it had been for past decades. Pop culture celebrated families, especially in the age of television, from the '50s through the '80s. There were some hangers-on in the early '90s, like Family Matters, Full House, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, but it was waning.

The contemporary messaging is very positive about nontraditional lifestyles. The people who control the media are the elite, and the messaging is delivered via pop culture stars.

I don't know which way the influence actually flows, but I think this is what the author is getting at, and it not too far out there if you ask me.
First: you don't necessarily need an alternative chroot, Debian allows installing packages of foreign architectures in the same main tree. It has some hiccups, but it should mostly work.

Second: of you like playing with foreign architectures, I have a collection of ready to boot Debian images of many architectures, that you can promptly boot with QEMU. Command line included. It is mostly aimed at full system emulation, though (but if you look through the cogs you can also download chroots). https://people.debian.org/~gio/dqib/

I wish I had seen this article sooner. It’s a really nice and succinct primer to some of the basics of using Ghidra for firmware analysis.

I have an expensive robotic cat toy that the manufacturer stopped supporting and I’ve been working on reverse engineering the firmware in my free time to better understand how it works. I have no background in reverse engineering so I’ve been learning a lot about identifying hardware, reading data sheets, and of course fumbling through Ghidra to disassemble the firmware.

After getting your bearings it becomes pretty easy to recognize the patterns of various standard C library functions like strlen, memcpy, etc. Others can be more challenging. Of course, with bespoke embedded hardware it can be much more difficult.

Ghidra really is an amazingly useful tool (clunky, yes — but very powerful and of course it’s free.) It makes me curious about commercial offerings and if they are worth buying as a hobbyist.
We've gone through the 'cheap Asian knockoff' cycles many times before.

I can remember when it was Japanese stuff that was supposedly 'cheap and shoddy' but we all went out later and bought Mazda and Toyota cars and Canon cameras.

Then it was the Taiwanese stuff and today the whole world can't do without Taiwanese computer chips.

Then it was the Chinese stuff, and the same cycle. But the scene is changing. In the same way as I originally thought the Japanese stuff wasn't up to par and then bought a Mazda Rotary that I absolutely loved, I see that the Chinese Haval is not at all a bad SUV for the price.

These days it seems to be that it's Vietnam's turn to be going through the cycle. Starting off cheap, and then later moving up the value-added ladder.

History repeats. Products are made to a price. Just because we usually see the cheap Asian shit that our companies try to foist upon us doesn't mean those Asian countries can't produce high-quality stuff for themselves to use against us.

There was a cartoon from the 1940s that showed Bugs Bunny finger-flicking a Japanese battleship that then fell to pieces. That wasn't at all the actuality of what happened when the US Navy finally met the Japanese Navy in early 1942.
The reality is that American/capitalist enterprises are in a sprint desiring infinite growth.

> For so-called poorer countries, they are differently structured. It's tough to compare their family units with our rich nations.

But that’s exactly the point! Prior to the 1960s revolution in social norms, families in poor countries weren’t structured all that differently than ones in the US.

I’m no Reaganite, but the fact is that the stuff the old “family values” conservatives said is pretty much the same thing my Asian immigrant parents told me growing up.

Meanwhile, the data shows that Asian Americans who grow up in the bottom 20% have a 25% chance of ending up in the top 20% as adults. For white kids it’s just 11%. That’s a really big coincidence to hand wave away.
It probably wasn't the only thing affected. It's just flipping bits in encryption keys has much more dramatic and obvious effect than flipping other random bits in memory. Flip a bit in a raster image and you get one funny-looking pixel. Flip a bit in an AES key and you completely corrupt all the data handled by that key.
