Quick idea: what might be nice instead of (or in addition to) an After Effects animation would be some interactive HTML sliders and buttons. When a website visitor slides them, they can see what effects the settings would have on their monitor -- potentially even applied to the website itself. Just a thought!

This triggered a long lost memory of seeing an interview with Norman Cook in the pre-Fatboy days in an Atari ST magazine. The internet archive knows all, so here he is, geeking out about midi ports with Zero magazine in 1991:

You can tell who is on stimulants in the comments here by the length of their comments.
I think that both reversing the power status and changing the relative amounts is doing the analogy some harm.

In my opinion a more relevant analogy is: Car dealership approaches person and asks to buy their car for $2500. Person says “Naah, price is $50,000 bro”. Dealership says: “Sure”.

Here I believe it’s more clear that the person is in fact not obligated to part with their car unless they take the required additional step of agreeing to the purchase and finalising all documents.
As I remember, the reason people kept using Atari and not PCs for music is the sound capability and reliable clock timing.

Reminds me of microcomputer programmer back on the Acorn Electron, writing machine code that relied on the 1Mhz clock speed for timing - so you would order the instructions so that things happened at the right time - was fun.
Maybe it is a bit tacky to reply to my own post, but it was a short quip and I figured I'd add some detail without muddying the clarity of my OP.

A free market, capitalistic society depends on a strong legal framework with adequate enforcement. My data belongs to me and I should have the choice to set its price and sell it if I want (or not). Facebook's constant theft of data (to call out one of FB's many misdeeds) highlights a blatant failure of that legal framework.

If you work for FaceCrook, you support their crooked endeavors and that's your choice - you have plenty of opportunities to earn a living that don't support such socially destructive actors.

Yah the epigenetics are interesting, especially with childhood trauma.

But Hyperfocus is commonly discussed on ADHDer forums and medical literature. It’s more common symptom for “inattentive subtype”. Actually there’s one ADHD’er on Instagram who has some hilarious short videos on it.

ADHD is probably better described as not “lack of attention” but “difficulty in choosing where focus goes”. In the medical literature and American medical guidelines (DSM) there are three subtypes of adhd based on symptoms: hyperactive, inattentive, or combined. The labels aren’t quite accirate, but hyperactive is the classic “boys running around out of control” adhd. Inattentive is the “absent minded professor” type.

Sounds like you may be more of the “inattentive subtype” which is what I was officially diagnosed with at a university health center after weeks of testing, a 6 hours IQ exam, and counseling. Less experienced doctors might not know about it.

The trance you describe when hitting that hyperfocus state is probably my “biggest weakness” adhd wise; it’s also my biggest asset when I can guide it onto something useful. But yes I take Concerta largely to help me be able to break out of those states. Though it takes counseling and mental effort to take advantage of it. Lately I’ve been enjoying programming almost to the exclusion of everything else in my life. I’m trying to rebalance myself a bit. I hope you can read up on it and maybe find a counselor with experience too. Medication needs to be combined with therapy to help take full advantage of it, IMHO.
Not even syntax so much as vocabulary and associations.

Well-defined and well-documented are usually orthogonal properties.

I always see these type of complaints and, when I actually sit down with people to resolve their aversion, it ultimately comes back to they use Pandas incorrectly or simply are not able to grok documentation. The usual dead giveaway is "Pandas documentation is horrible". Anyone who has used more than one documentation would know that documentation rarely includes every function in the API let alone the argument, examples, and links to other related functions.

As this is the top comment, can you (and others) at least post the problems so that we can have an intellectual discussion? Maybe the Pandas devs might take a point or two.

>If you still wonder why people work at Facebook, here's your answer.

I think the primary incentive is money; if it wasn't for the money they would work for some nonprofit or be self-employed but the thing is nor nonprofit nor self-employment can earn you the money that Facebook can pay you unless you really "make it" by being self-employed.

My assumption is majority of people are incentivized by money not by the cause but me personally I would rather try to "bring people closer together" by doing my thing than believe in corporate bullshit that Facebook feeds you with day in, day out.

So, yea 0.5 to 1C was taken out of context.

“To evaluate the contribution of AC systems on air temperature, the WRF AC100%, AC65%, and AC35% simulations were compared against the AC_NoOut experiment.” It’s even in the conclusion: “Sustainable development and optimization of electricity consumption in cities would require turning “wasted heat” from AC into “useful energy” which can be utilized inside houses for various purposes including, for example, in water heaters.”

In other words they simulated the cooling effect of AC without the heat produced by the AC systems entering the environment as the baseline. Not what would have happened if the AC had been turned off.

And you can do that. Just turn it off.

I honestly thing the 'lock down' is so overblown.

Yes there's 'more hoops' - but you go through the hoop once. Seriously, if you're running a dev machine turning off 3, maybe 4, things once and never touching them again is hardly the biggest hurdle.
Okay, so how far can I drive my car on six hours of daylight on a cloudy day?

> being perfect designs at the expense of thoughts of usability

This is an oxymoron. Being a desinger doesn't mean that you focus on making things look good while someone else comes along and reminds you about "usability". A design isn't "perfect" if it has usability problems. Any designer worth their salt will be the first to tell you that.
If you know Inkscape, you'll feel right at home with Sketch. The extra functionality I'm talking is usually unlocked with additional hotkeys and visual helpers that appear by themselves when dragging things around. I'm not exaggerating about 10x productivity boost, it is really that big.

Selecting for high IQ and low empathy/EQ
I agree with you, I've recently seen so many reddit style ask HNs that are basically just hypothetical question that teenagers think of in the shower.

I'd pay $50 to have this workflow fully integrated and working with my editor (emacs; I'd also take VSCode or something else that's not vim). apt-get install a few things, and it works.

That's conveying value-add, not suggesting someone should do it for that amount (which is to say I'd gladly pay, but I can't imagine it's worth doing for that amount, or that there's a reasonably way to find and collect $$$ from more people like me).

How does touch screen work on desktop? From the fact that nobody but apple has made a decent touch pad in.. 15 years?, I'm first assuming hardware wise it'd suck. But ok, let's assume that works. Doesn't a ton of desktop interfaces rely on hover, scroll, etc? For what purposes are touchscreen superior assuming you have a mouse/touch bar at hand?
I can only speak to those companies I have spoken with. I use apple products, but haven't really been interested in their open positions.

'No but in many cases you could rewrite it as "why does Canada let rich people live long, drawn out, painful deaths of suffering?"'

From the article, your proposed rewrite does not make sense. There's nothing to say that these people would have drawn out and painful deaths if they're doing it simply because they don't have money to support themselves. There are also medications to alleviate pain.

"Given that everyone is going to die, defaulting to euthanasia in the majority of cases is probably better for the eithanized without taking into account class"

Maybe. The real question at the heart of the story isn't whether to allow euthanasia, but whether the change to more permissive regulations is leading to abuses.

As a counter argument to this, you could produce some numbers on how many of your majority of cases would not be allowed under the old wording.
Yep. I have a relative that is a certified genius, got a full scholarship to an Ivy League school and is now a C-level executive with one of the big banks.

This was my same thought process when I was making $80K and trying to dig myself out of bad real estate decisions post 2008 and had less than $100 in savings. Yes I know $80K isn’t a bad income in the grand scheme of things. But it is when you have five mortgages on three properties totaling a half a million dollars during the worse real estate crash in years.

Even then my focus was to always be employable and to be able to find a job quickly.

> There is only one reason, and it's that people don't understand how to use SQL

Unfortunately, I immediately think you have misunderstood. While ORMs and other database abstractions may be a boon to folks who don’t know SQL, or at least some may think that, it is not the only reason that people use them. It may not even be one of the bigger reasons.

Type safety is first and foremost a great example. Wouldn’t it be great if you could literally not ship SQL code that has typos, syntax errors, or other query errors? Unit tests catch those, but you have to actually write them, and they still can’t help if you hold things wrong. (Like using sprintf for SQL queries, god help us. Yes, that is a mistake no professional should make. But if you add enough layers of complexity, you might just fool someone who knows better into doing basically that with extra steps. There are some ways to combat this of course, like PEP 675[1].) In some environments you might accomplish this with compile-time linting or advanced metaprogramming. However, ORMs also do this right out of the box generally, at least in languages where it can be done.

But even then, that doesn’t scratch the surface of what’s possible. Mind you, with sqlc, we’re still talking about making raw SQL queries. But those SQL queries contain tons of information that gets duplicated by the programmer. For example, it is possible to statically know what types of inputs and output columns any given query will have based on just the schema and the query itself. sqlc gives you this information. It generates correct wrappers for SQL code using only raw SQL queries as input.

This is not the only benefit of abstractions of course. And sqlc doesn’t give you all of the benefits of an ORM. However, that’s exactly what I’m trying to say: a lot of people have an idea in their head about what an abstraction must entail, but there’s probably better tradeoffs that are genuinely not susceptible to the same issues that you’re imagining. Case in point, I have a feeling you interpreted my post to only be regarding ORMs, but even the text you quoted is more general—I said “database abstractions” for a reason :)

Yeah, Apple would have made him irrelevant so he could go without tanking the stock.
A lot of the "lets just hire lots of grunts" mentality implies someone is going to do a lot of the other work - talking to users, documenting requirements, creating well specified dev tickets, implement SDLC tooling, integrate with SRE, create guard rails, do documentation, testing, code reviews, style guides, etc.

Which is to say - most of the stuff you expect a senior to just be able to do as part of their job while also writing better code.

A large enough org may be able to offload much of those tasks to dedicated people and/or teams. Similarly a mature enough platform could have lots of BAU dev that can go to grunts because the basic infrastructure already exists and the workflows are well known with good tooling.

So it really depends on organizational size & maturity if its a good trade.
>a place parents can choose to send their children

In the U.S., school attendance is paid for by the public and generally required by law. This isn't to say there aren't exemptions for alternatives such as homeschooling.

But, this reflects that we have decided education, in general, is an important public good. So, teaching other valuable skills (like resiliency) is consistent with this principle.

There doesn't seem to be much value in arbitrarily circumscribing which skills should be taught. And, schools teaching a broader array of skills doesn't reassign ultimate responsibility from parents any more than sending them to school does now.
i like oop for namespaces. if only c had them. I recently went back to php after JavaScript. Js has a string object, so if you want any string function you know where to look.
Php has a bunch of functions with str prefixes which could lead to namespace collision.

I like oop because of custom types. Awhile back I had to create a vector class in python. Since Python support type hints, vscode automatically warned me if I pass the wrong object.
Delete the app from your phone and change the password to a random string then paste it with your eyes shut. Put up as many barriers as possible between you and the service so it is harder to use it.

Have you talked to people who have handled trolling and abuse at scale before? I ask because there seem to be some huge holes in your model.

1) Message sending is already a victory condition

If I understand correctly, when someone comments, it's always forwarded to the OP. Many harassers will use that to send vile things to the OP. If accounts can be generated without limit, they'll flood the OP's inbox.

2) Since replies are firstly private, this means others will not have the chance to downvote

This deprives the system operator of some potentially valuable signals. Of course they can be brigaded too.

3) Opt-in once and receive a lifetime of abuse

It seems like your system allows for individuals to opt-in to displaying replies, but no way for them to opt out. Many trolls will consider it a game to deceive the OP with an apparently sincere reply and then they'll have an unobstructed channel.

I'm not even a specialist in these matters. Seriously, there are lots of people who are experts in troll fighting at this time, I strongly suggest you talk to them.

> What happens when the corpus of all human knowledge really can sit on your table top as the early sci-fi writers predicted?

If reality is any indication, then if it's copyrightable it won't be sitting on your table top:

* Set of important facts about the world: not copyrightable. Yet so freely accessible I don't even bother to copy Wikipedia to my table top.

* Set of important modern books: copyrightable and mostly still under copyright. Also, probably digitized by Google. Not available for table top copying.

* Set of important music scores: copyrightable, but most are by dead composers, and most are out of copyright. Hooray! Except the IMLSP had to go offline for almost a year, seek legal help and create a staff-review process for uploads to make absolutely sure no publishers could sue him out of existence.

* That full video of Will Forte playing white supremacist "Hamilton Whiteman" at Seth Meyer's actual rehearsal dinner: copyrightable. I actually watched the whole thing at one point, but it apparently got a copyright claim so I can't share it with anyone. I just added this one on the off chance someone on here has a copy and feels daring, because dammit, it was funny, and I want to watch it again.

I feel like the tech world needs a decent political mover-and-shaker who could make a Glengarry Glen Ross style speech at this point: something about how with the tools you got available he could go out and make legal table top human knowledge boxes a reality tonight...
