As others have said, I agree that you should seek professional help and find a way to re-evaluate your thinking about your career. From this post, it seems like you've gotten stuck in a feedback cycle of resentment. To make that more clear, note that many things you've said here would seem to imply you look down on your coworkers and/or on the work they do. There's the obvious example of "I was hard working and intelligent than him", but more telling are phrases like "I am extremely unhappy being an IC", "I have 25 years of industry experience and I feel I should mentor people instead of moving JIRA tickets around" and "Yet here I am being ‘advanced beginner’ in a different role every couple of years doing grunt IC work" suggest that you look down on the people who actually get things done at a company. How many IC's want a manager who views them as beneath them? What company would be exercising good judgment putting you into a role in which your resentment might trickle down to your reports?

I'd suggest taking a break and working with someone who can help you process your feelings and move past them.

But there are plenty of genres and artists (1-person bands recording in their basement) that don't make sense live or aren't able to perform live.

There is a big difference between a musician and a performer. The bands that are both certainly have the biggest advantage, but we shouldn't discredit people who are just making music.
I'll just mention that all my systems do run Ubuntu, but with Snap removed. It works just fine. Ubuntu does doing a lot of obnoxious things like snap, but they're not mandatory.

Removing snap is 5 minutes. Ubuntu has come to the threshold of making design decisions which would have forced me to switch off many times, but has never quite crossed that threshold. They've pushing a variety crappy cloud-based offerings. There were many half-start attempts to replace system components (display server, startup system, audio, etc.) with half-baked ill-designed options.

Despite scary announcements, none of these actually came to pass as mandatory components, at least while they were half-baked bad idea stage. They're either dead, optional, or were incrementally improved to be usable before they were integrated to where they were necessary for Ubuntu to function.

For me, I think the roughly hour or two I'd need to invest in getting a Debian working correctly on each machine is still less than the 5-minutes per Ubuntu bad idea I need to remove. Debian makes a great core system, and Ubuntu still does a pretty good job with providing a layer of polish around things like hardware support.

So yeah, I wouldn't advise moving back until things break. If it ain't broken yet, don't pre-emptively fix it. If snap replaces apt, or becomes mandatory, I'll be gone. That's not on the horizon yet.

What if I:

- Am not in a jurisdiction where there is a trustworthy broker for VT or USD?

- Want to loan someone my VT (for example for them to short)?

- Want to buy some derivative of VT (easy to do in the US for VT American-style options, but this isn't true for all derivatives on all assets in all markets)

- Need to buy a large amount of VT and using the open market isn't cost effective?

VT maybe isn't the best example in favor of crypto as it's probably already one of the easiest assets in the world to trade safely online. There's lots of other stuff that's way trickier in the current system.

That is a great point. I got into a lot of trouble for treating people exactly the way they treated me. (That usually didn't have the intended effect of enlightening them, unfortunately...)

My reasoning was, if you don't want it done to you, don't do it to me. If you claim this behavior is so bad, why do you repeatedly demonstrate it? That too made me lose a lot of respect for parents, teachers etc.
> I rather mean the firmware of the e-ink driver board, which is a trade secret. I don't know, maybe it is not even firmware in an MCU, but they have a dedicated driver chip and it just has the look-up-tables. Anyway, the secret sauce that tells you how to drive the display cells.

Huh? What e-ink driver board? There's no such thing inside a Kindle. It is a straight NXP SoC that drives the e-ink panel directly. There is no MCU. The driver is open source. https://github.com/canselcik/libremarkable/blob/master/refer...

"Secret sauce that tells you how to drive the display cells"? You mean like a voltage table that is also present inside every LCD or OLED? The difference would be that the electrophoretic display would need a much bigger table so it would have to be kept on the SoC since it can't possibly fit into a single voltage driver circuit. That's not software, that's just a big table of voltages that's hardcoded for each unique panel. Is that what you think is "secret sauce"? Do you also want to extract that table inside each LCD drive circuit as well? I guess you could use it to make your LCD or OLED panel show brighter colors but at the risk of burning and damaging the crystals. I imagine the same risk would also be true for electrophoretic panels or anything where you can change the physical voltage that is being applied to the material.
The subjective theory of value --- where worth is only determined by what someone will pay. A theory fully embraced by every con artist --- and crypto fan.

In other words, the title you bought to the Golden Gate Bridge is worth whatever you can con some other like-minded fool into paying you for it.

The obvious problem here being that worth and value is based on foolishness more so than reality. Which may be fine --- until reality intrudes --- which it always does --- eventually.

Yes and no. One of the biggest disadvantages of python is that the way people typically optimize python code is to
1. rewrite in numpy
2. rewrite in Cython (or other python compiler)
3. rewrite in C++

The problem with this workflow is that it means you end up rewriting large chunks of your code over several years in systems that have fairly different idioms. If you suspect you might in the future be performance bottle-necked, writing your code in a faster (but still productive) language to start can be a lot better because you can then improve performance more incrementally without multiple full rewrites.
The vanity part is not the domain, its the path.

Optimisation has moved beyond the individual panel onto things like vertical bifacial panels in West/east orientation aiming to complement the fixed south facing output of other panels (and so get paid/avoid higher costs) or roof tile integrated to skip an install step and reduce transmission peaks.
> I have 25 years of industry experience and I feel I should mentor people instead of moving JIRA tickets around.

Managers don't mentor in the same way that you want to mentor.

I suggest targeting roles like "lead developer" or "architect." These are the kinds of roles where you're writing designs, and mentoring other developers.

When you change roles, (either within your company or with a new employer,) be explicit that you're targeting a lead / architect role. If they push you towards a novice role, walk away. Expect that it will take you longer to find a lead / architect role than to find an entry-level role.
My take is that people and technology are part of the same system and the details of technology and how it is deployed really do matter.

Also I strongly recommend another Haidt book called "The Righteous Mind".
Lies we tell ourselves to keep using Golang
>that GTK still lacks a proper thumb grid view

Qt has the same problem and, at this point, I doubt this will change at all in the next decade. Very few applications actually have any reason to use the default file chooser, and there are basically no developers who have any reason to modify it. If there were, they would have made the changes already sometime in the last "many years". The Snap issue is at least fixable with some caching.
I think along similar lines. Also, when I thought about it, I more often find myself actually wishing for a constant stream of money rather than an one-off payment. Although that might change if I actually find something that I would love to afford and that is only payable once but then there are financial markets that would happily transfer a steady flow of money in the future to a large payment now.

I wrote an article about OpenSSL some time ago, and it's Google's top hit on "openssl flat file encryption."

I've heard great criticism of directly using the RSA functions, but they do work for the exchange of a very small amount of data.

Newer versions of OpenSSL offer chacha20-poly1305 in the "enc" symmetric ciphers.

Gitoxide: Checking out he Linux kernel in under a second
We use Chargebee for subscriptions at our company Pod2 (https://www.pod2.co/), with Stripe for payment processing and Avalara for taxes.

We decided on Chargebee because we wanted to avoid building our own subscription management. Even with something like Stripe subscriptions/recurring payments our use case, we would've had to build a lot of the functionality that Chargebee includes out of the box. We also wanted some control over payment processing and taxes which is why we avoided alternatives like Paddle.

We've really enjoyed Chargebee so far and the support team has been great. There are a few rough edges but we were able to work around them fine. For example, we have some custom handling around license assignment/delegation, so we can't really take advantage of the self-service portal for customers, but that's ok because we plan to create a portal that's more application-specific anyway.

The pricing is relatively competitive compared to the other alternatives out there. If you're part of AWS Activate or a similar program you might be able to receive credits towards your plan too.

I think we're at a transition point. People talk about our entering a post-scarcity economy but what you don't hear so much about is exactly how would that happen? Human nature being what it is those at the top who are accustomed to consuming the most civilization has to offer are still playing by that same old playbook - but in a post-scarcity economy that consumption is obscene and it's becoming clearer to more and more people that the old playbook needs to be thrown out. But that "old playbook" has been around for 6,000 years (actually more)!

I remember the old Police song having the line "there is no political solution for our troubled evolution." They say we live in the Anthropocene epoch, an epoch dominated by man. The problem is that's not the world we evolved in and for humans evolution isn't just a matter of physical adaptation but social adaptation as well. Our social structures we've built over the millennia no longer work the same in this new world we've built. We have to evolve, but social evolution typically involves violence and upheaval and would appear that everything is falling apart.
Eh, there have been institutions with almost absurd longevity in history. The catholic church has stood largely unchanged for the 1600 odd years between Constantine and Vatican II. Ancient Egypt was already thousands of years old when Socrates harassed aristocrats in Athens.

It's very easy to forget that the revolutions of Britain, France, America, Russia; it happened just a few generations ago, and upended most of the political landscape (even in countries that didn't see actual revolutions). I think what is happening is most of our modern institutions are all of roughly the same age, and after initial idealism and momentum have roughly at the same time begun to ossify and show cracks as people have started taking them for granted.

This is the first time anyone has attempted democracy on this sort of scale. Looking back we've had republics with longevity, we've had autocratic dynasties with longevity. But democracy? Besides Athens, which had a very different shape of political system, this is really a first. It's a huge political experiment, the long-term viability of which is being determined here and now by our ability to keep our shit together.
How exactly does the fed funds rate flow through categories of financial entities that end up inflating growth equities and therefore VC returns?

That's the classical argument pro phages. It's probably not easy to pick a clearly better one, @yyyk seems to have more insight than I do, but I did read an article pointing out that research on bacteriophages in the west only really took off after the cold war.
Or rather, focus on the big things. Algorithmic complexity etc.

Also for all languages where you want to do performance work: Learn to use a profiler, so you can find the things that matter. And then selectively look what you can improve there. Even in Python, some hacks or slightly unergonomic patterns in a really hot loop can be worth a lot.

I'm skeptical that someone who unironically uses the phrase "woke mindvirus" has any such intent. There's a reason right-wing accounts are flooding the platform now and everyone else is running for the hills, and it isn't because Elon makes both sides equally welcome or unwelcome.

Yes this is problem when using analogy: it usually goes both ways.
Having worked some in Rust, and a lot in Haskell in my experience the design changes because of the borrow checker/type system (fixing the issues will provoke re-design, mostly for the better). Meaning it's not something you just flip on after the fact. The types can help guide and drive the design. They aren't a straitjacket to be taken off once code whack a mole is done.

That said, I do think Rust could add something like Haskell's type holes where instead of just randomly leaking memory the code has undefined behavior and will simply crash the program if executed.

I think it's an example of the post hoc fallacy and is often presented in terms of a casino slot machine, where a player leaves the machine and the next player wins the jackpot. X is assumed to cause Y, simply because X occurred before Y. With the above example, X is 'not buying the lottery ticket when you had the chance' and Y is 'the next person to buy a lottery ticket wins the prize'.
It's kind of tricky to do in general case, e.g. even hackernews is keeping meaningful semantic information in id= query parameter.

Because of that it ultimately needs to a site-specific database/algorithm, perhaps with a fallback to the default behaviour like simply cleaning up the most common garbage like (_encoding/usg/etc). I suspect it's possible to use some sort of machine learning to guess the meaningful parts of the URL path/query/fragments, but even for that we need some human curation for the training set. I wish we could collaborate on a shared database/library for that, have sketched some ideas/applications/prior art here: https://beepb00p.xyz/exobrain/projects/cannon.html

I started thinking about it since I have a similar problem in Promnesia (https://github.com/karlicoss/promnesia#readme), a knowledge management tool I'm working on. Ideally I want to normalise URLS, so they address the exact bit of information, and nothing more.

> If you use private browsing, this is extremely annoying, every session you have to click "block".

I just verified that if, in Firefox, you checkbox "[x] Block new requests asking to access your location" in the location settings, then a private window inherit this; and the popup no longer appears.

For some reason, the per-site blocking is not inherited by the private windows. Maybe it's considered an unacceptable info leak or something. Or possibly it might be this: the individual per-site location setting can be positive or negative (accept or deny). If the settings as such were inherited by a private window, that would be bad because if any accepts are present, they conflict with the concept of a private window. Maybe if the private windows just inherited the deny entries, that would be reasonable; could be nobody has bothered coding that up, thinking that users who are bothered about location can just use the global switch.
I’m not the OP, but 5 million as an American wouldn’t fundamentally change your life. The interest from the money would be comparable to a decent salary as a tech worker, probably similar to OPs current salary.

More money and you’re probably spending it on servants and lavish housing or entertainment. Those things might be cool, but it’s mental overhead that I imagine a lot of people just don’t want to deal with.

I had an insight about this which isn't really novel but it finally clicked for me on an experiential level: if you assume bad faith, it makes you feel really bad about the other person, and from that feeling flow words and actions that screw up the relationship (even if your suspicion was completely unjustified and the other person had no ill intentions whatsoever!)
Agreed. I think this is why vinyl has taken off. It is much more physical then a CD. The artwork is larger and it just feels more personable. You have to be much more careful with it, and listening to it is a bigger investment. And a collection of vinyl looks great.

I think a similar trend has happened with books. Certainly, e-readers are awesome. But for some things, you really want to have a physical copy. And in that case, a hardback is way better than a paperback. It is a long term keepsake and looks nice on your shelf.

I think for many people, their collection of music, books, or other items allows them to show off their personality to their guests. When I go to someone's house, if they have a large bookshelf, I love to look through it to get an idea of their interests. It can be great conversation starters. You can't do that with purely digital media.
