On the plus side, if you are successful switching to software development, having a background as a practicing nurse will allow you to pretty much write your own paycheck if you’re willing to work in medical software.
I work for a very large consulting firm and sometimes you get a little swag as a thank you for things not big enough to impact your bonus. The whole thing must be automated because I got on the list but didn’t get off it for a couple months. All kinds of blankets, mugs, cookie baskets, tumblers and other random corporate goodies kept showing up at my door once a week.
It's not about the achievement or the title of being a whatever. It's just that if you're the kind of kid really interested in math competitions and you're really good at it, then you've got a small set of people with whom you can really enjoy sharing your view of the world through your favourite lens.

Whatever. Essentially, I like this guy's software and he seems fairly personable, so I'm inclined to not really believe he's "I'm so much smarter than you"ing a bunch of people.

Just don’t. Why would anyone use ReFS? It’s a project that Microsoft have failed miserably at, and it’s basically abandonware.
As a layman (albeit one with an interest in Biology), one thing that makes me skeptical of this article is the way it's written. Very specific assertions are often paired with very vague references to other papers. For example, an oft-repeated study was cited which involved exposing rats to EMF radiation. The rats then developed cognitive impairments similar to Alzheimer. However no mention is made regarding the strength of the electromagnetic exposure, nor it's range.

Overall, it seems like the paper attempts to tie a number of different studies together, without showing that those studies have been reproduced. I try not to dismiss scientific papers like this out-of-hand, but there have been hundreds of (quite dubious) claims over the years that electromagnetic radiation causes everything from cancer to autism. At this point, any claim that "electromagnetic radiation causes <Insert Condition Here>" is going to need to be backed up by strong, reproducible (and reproduced) evidence.
Yes, I felt/feel that way.

> you could say, just turn off the Internet and buy a book

Yup. I could and I would say this. Because this works at least for me. Whenever I started back the habit of reading books (esp. paper books) it has worked just like this, like a charm. I stopped looking for my phone etc. Starting back on travelling and sports also help.

I (guess) am mostly full of doing other things that I don’t need Internet to fruitlessly try to fill the empty parts because there isn’t or less empty parts - free time, need for gratification, need to tire my body and brain, get excited/sad etc etc.

> but can you really pretend it doesn't exist?

Why would I want to do that? It exists and that’s okay. In fact it’s helpful for many and often for me as well.

> And how long can you stick to it?

For 7 months last time. Then I got infected by COVID and had to lie on the bed for quite sometime and phone slipped back in the bedroom (use case was rain sounds - helps/helped me sleep; and funny videos just to keep the mood afloat). Gotta get rid of it again.

Imho I don’t think there’s too much of Internet out there. It’s about how frequently and what all you try to keep accessing.

This is a very simple observation I’ve had - anybody who has got to do things is successfully able to use the Internet to get those things done by using it bare minimally or give up and get it done elsewhere - ie in the physical space, whatever that’s called - real world(?). In fact those people don’t even need books and travel to distract them away from this distraction.

It is not like they are not working on improving things. I will even go as far that getting control of electron was a big motivating behind purchasing GitHub. Moving to Chromium based browser if also part of the plans to get access to and being able to improve Teams. Teams is such a central piece of software to Microsoft and many other Microsoft products and services evolves around teams but to replace the Electron part of teams with something better is apparently not an easy task. Teams for private people, that ships with Windows 11, does not use Electron (uses a webview instead) is part of this mission. I haven't used it as I also hate Teams and have zero desire to use anything teams outside of work, but from what I understand it should be much more performant and useless resources than the Teams for Work Electron app.
You have to go into zfs settings to enable it, I think it's something like this: `zfs set snapdir=visible poolname/dataset`

After that you can see it with `ls -la`.

absolutely.We need to look at ways to make monetary compensation more aligned with the best interest of the patient.

Having said that we also need to look at patients taking more accountability for their health and consequences for wasting medical professional times.

I don't understand.. How are they not supporting their hardware when they willingly repair their hardware. In cases where they screw up, they tend to even have free replacement programs.

i have no idea about this cable issue, or who Louis Rossman is... I have a thunderbolt cable with data and power running from the display to the notebook. Is the data in danger? FWIW it's transmitting 6016 * 3384 = 20385144 pixels at, I believe, 24 bit color depth and 60H flawlessly.

But mostly I just don't get what this has to do with their service?

The ideal file-level Time Machine-like tool for ZFS already exists and it is Windows Explorer. Not even kidding. Right click on any file or folder residing on a ZFS share and click on Properties, then click the Previous Versions tab. You can restore the file or folder from any snapshot, or just open it and look at it.

> It's animalistic and can never go away.

I'm not sure that's true. Given enough time it could change. I'm just not sure why we'd want it to. I'm perfectly content to leave some things a mystery and that includes what anyone else is doing in the bathroom.
I have this enabled too, but httm seems like an improvement over this since there's lots of times where I need to restore something from a snapshot, but since I have to look it up based on time, there's a lot of guesswork to find the right snapshot that has what I need. This looks great since I think it lets me do lookups via file, so I can see all the snapshots available for a given file and I can instantly see what all my restore options are.
Among other things: the safety tolerances for SpaceX are substantially different than those for commercial airliners. When a SpaceX launch craft fails, it explodes somewhere over the ocean or in LEO. When a commercial passenger airliner fails, several hundred human beings die.
Agreed - great cars and very fresh design.

I kind of think them building a deep product design bench to pull off their design revolution would also lead to these kinds of projects because those groups love this kinds of side projects.

You actually don't want many "car guys" in these design groups unless it's for a sports/enthusiast car, so some non-car product design people were likely hired, a good thing.

But I feel like discretionary prosecution is already breaking blindness.

And furthermore, perversely-incentivized blindness. Get a high conviction rate, by throwing the book at people charged with "PR bad" crimes, regardless of the individual, and as long as they aren't politically connected and potentially useful in your future political career.

Compared to that motivation of your average DA / USA, "How surviving family feels" doesn't seem worse.
This is just victim-blaming.

Defund the organisation to point of total chaos and near-collapse. Blame employees for collapse in work quality.

Here are some more generally true statements:

Increase profits and improve efficiency by cutting out maintenance tasks and firing the people who do them. Blame accidents or outages on employees, customers, bystanders.

People die? Company goes bust? Who cares? Even if there are consequences, the executives/officials to blame have already taken the money and moved on to the next thing. You can't prosecute them or get the money back (unless they were stupendously dumb and got directly involved and stayed on 'til the bitter end and centres of power were so affected that prosecutors can't ignore it: see Theranos, Enron, etc.).
If there's a compromised machine, the scammer can drain the victim's bank accounts and cost them far more than an electricity bill, and/or mine cryptocurrency directly. Regardless, their spam-sending rate will still be significantly decreased.

So, this argument is completely invalid.
iPhone XR cost at launch: $849. Screen replacement: $199.

Also, as far as I can tell, screens have stopped breaking at some point? I used to reliably break the screen before the two-year replacement cycle was up. Except for the last two generations, which survived, and not for lack of dropping them.
> In UTF-8, most of those languages require 3 bytes to encode a 32-bit codepoint, in UTF-16 they only ever need 2. This ends up being a huge savings.

Meanwhile in lots of other countries, UTF-8 lets you use 1 byte to store each character instead of 2; which is also a huge savings.

The question is, is it better for the world to pick one encoding and have all programs use it, or pick several encodings and switch between them depending on the context / country? Picking one encoding means we can reuse our code more easily. Picking multiple encodings means we get slightly smaller file sizes.

For my money, the best approach is to use UTF-8 everywhere. This lets us reuse code. Then if you're worried about file size on disk or over the wire, compress your text content with LZ4 or snappy or something. That'll halve the size of text for everyone and LZ4 is so fast its essentially free from a computational standpoint.

As this blog post demonstrates, quite a lot of code needs to deeply understand text encoding to work (be that UTF-8 or UTF-16 or whatever). Its a big savings in programming hours if we only have to write this code once.
They'd be structured differently if they were truly about changing the world, instead of just being vehicles for wealth accumulation.
> One of my favorite examples is the regex library cl-ppcre. Thanks to the nature of Lisp, the recognizer for each regex you create can be compiled to native code on compiler implementations of CL.

That is not true - cl-ppcre generates a chain of closures. Experimental performance is in the same ballpark as typical "bytecode" interpreting regex implementations.

However, the "compiler macro" feature in Common Lisp allows for generating the chain of closures to be performed at compile-time, and invalid syntax (in string literals) can be detected at compile-time.

(Disclosure: I wrote another regex library at <https://github.com/telekons/one-more-re-nightmare>, which does do native code compilation.)

What Ennesay does is either illegal or secretly justified (take your pick), and they lie to the rest of government and the public about what they do.

At least NK is open and expliciedit: to the downvoters, trust this is not me saying we need to be like NK. It’s me pointing out a flaw of the US government

Yep, just like the color of the bike shed is something everyone understands and is easy to argue about.
Well it depends what you think the purpose of economies is. One idea is that human beings are just a type of animal, and the economy is a social system which is supposed to incentivize the kind of behaviours that you want humans to do. If you want humans to be nurses, then the economy had better reward that.

Another interpretation is that the economy is a tool for exploiting people. For example, human beings are inherently of the opinion that human decency is good, they want to be functioning members of society, they care about the wellbeing of others, and if they are paid crap and treated like garbage, they will endure that, even to the point of great personal cost, emotional distress, mental illness, alcoholism, and even death. But as long as they don't quit, then everything is fine.

I lived in a van with an e-bike for a year and traveled the United States extensively in both modes. I can assure you that getting around on an e-bike is realistic pretty much everywhere in USA. Even over long distances or hilly terrain or in the hot or in the cold. I agree that the comfort of the car makes people 'soft' and so entrepreneurs looking to sell alternative modes of transport need to work hard at allaying the concerns that you imply with your worldview if they want to get customers out of cars.
> It can be easier to be able to just wear the uniform rather than having to choose what to wear every day.

If someone really has so much trouble deciding what to wear ... just get a bunch of gray t-shirts and sweatpants/blue jeans. You (or the parents for a young child) are free to make your own uniform.
However, if someone feels the need to express themselves through clothing, they are free to do so.

Exactly my thoughts,

The way I see it is, if there's a spec. that specifies such a small tolerance (in an airplane of all things), it must be there for good reason.

We do exactly this at the startup [1] that I'm running. Depending on their level and the equipment they have, young children learn Chinese online with native teachers using Zoom on their phones or StoryLand (eg Gather) on their laptops.

Many commenters have mentioned that socialisation and its associated obligations are beneficial to learning, and this is what we are reminded of everyday among our students.

Kids learn best when they see other kids learn. And kids learn best when they are able to directly apply what they learn into a project that they own. We enable our own students to publish their own books and to perform in musicals that they produce.

Many online education companies fail because they think that all online education ("edTech") is simply digitising the school. It's not. To succeed, we need to think deeply about what online and physical education does best.

Pilot’s length, width, and height are within an inch of each other that seems like the same size category to me. 2022 Telluride is 196.9“ X 78.3” X 68.9” 2022 Honda Pilot is 196.5” X 78.6” X 70.6” and a slightly more expensive MSRP.

The RAV4 is noticeably smaller and cheaper, but still an SUV and seemed like a useful benchmark.

PS: They sold 75,129 in 2020, and 58,604 in 2019, so I don’t think they expected it to tank to 50k in 2021. Still probably supply limited in 2021 but so was just about every car company.

slack is built with electron, cannot blame electron much.

probably not fair to compare Teams and slack, as you said, MS has more things to consider for Teams than slack... while seems even some minor things, it is kind of annoying, can be easily fixed, but stay like that for long time... thinking if the Teams product team folks use the product and care, they should have fixed/improved...

seems this is common for MS products, powerful, many functions, but do not care enough for UX..., and one of things makes it different to apple :-)

Materials science is definitely the technology closest to full on magic. So cool.
The caring professions are quite a special case. The worse things get, the more carers care.

They are not like computer programmers who can make an industrial process be 10,000x faster. They cannot magically care 10,000x more, no matter how relaxed and comfortable they are.

Furthermore, as they are pushed closer and closer to failure, the collapse in patient care standards does not result in a collapse in profit. People aren't going to not seek medical treatment, it's a basic human need, sometimes a life or death need.

So we're back to the question: does that mean they should be exploited and milked of all their caring, at the same time the standard of care collapses, because the economic incentives reward that?

And that is fundamentally a moral/humanitarian question in which you have to make an adult moral judgement.
hah yeah I've been told by a close Slovene friend countless times how that local tracker you have is soo amazing :P
GP specifies a ZFS share.
What a great timing. I've recently started a side project to do something similar. It's todo/habit/tracking app made to scratch my own itches.

1. I've tried out many todo apps and they all aren't quite right for me (atm it's just a pen and paper), so I want to try design UX that's tailor made for me.

2. I found that arbitrary points and day streaks go a long way in making my habits stick. So I want to have an app that can add points/ streaks to anything that I do. (e.g. I complete "go to the gym" from my todo list, and it automatically adds a log to a table. Then that log is parsed to show some arbitrary point & streaks for going to the gym)

3. I want the app to have a REST endpoint that I can use to integrate with other apps to automate data entry.

Honestly, it's more of a procrastination thing than a productivity thing :p but have a lot of fun thinking about/ building the app.
VSS is very cool.

I would note -- one advantage of being a file level tool is `httm` will deduplicate file versions by size and modify time giving you only unique file versions. If you take 100 snapshots but the file was only modified 5 times, then you only see 5 file versions, so no more digging through snapshots ever.
I didn't bring up Google for any reason other than they're the obvious alternative. I guess I could have said Samsung, but I tend to forget about them. But the question applies to them, too.

About 7 years ago I switched to nursing from nearly 35 years as a software engineer. Each 13-hour shift my 6 or 7 patients, if there was a moment to talk, would ask why I did so. I'd make pretty much the same joke every time: "I was looking a job that was much much harder and paid much much less, so I landed on nursing. Unlike in a hospital, when I was in software and there was a crisis, we'd schedule a meeting and order burritos." The jokes stopped being funny, so three weeks ago I quit my last hospital nursing job.
