This might be a mean, partisan dismissal, but this essay for me is another example of wealthy liberals identifying themselves as victims by proximity. The fact that they run charities that help the weak somehow means that disagreeing with how they run them is abuse, even if that disagreement entirely consists of moving your cash to someone who is doing a better job.

The thing with internships is that they are almost always full-time positions. It's just too much doing a full-time internship next to my full-time masters program unless I want to drag everything out even further.

ADHD here. Kids are ADHD. My Malinois has to be ADHD. Being ADHD like I am with almost two decades of IT under my belt has felt weird. I crave my YouTube channels and certain news sites since the content creators I watch/read put out daily content. Ditto my insane amount of caffeine and nicotine consumption, which I learned from having my kids diagnosed, is me self medicating in lieu of something pharmaceutical. I'm also OCD, so that doesn't help. People with ADHD/OCD need closure something fierce, so when I feel like I'm not getting it, I feel the world is not right.

On the professional side, my ADHD/OCD makes for some clean code and pedantically-set up servers. Nothing says ADHD/OCD like taking two days to crank out code which some of my colleagues can crank out in half the time. I'm told I'm too pedantic sometimes. Too much of a perfectionist. ADHD can do that to you. I'm happy with my lot in life.

> Using a texture atlas was a great idea, and we didn't know about it until you told us.

One is forced to wonder how, in an entire team working on a terminal emulator, no one thought to use the texture atlas. I mean, that's basically how the actual physical terminals the software is emulating worked in the first place. Then, when told about the obvious implementation, the reaction was not to slap one's forehead and say "Of course, it was so obvious!", but instead to tell a decades-experience game engine developer that they didn't understand how rendering works.

Mind boggling.
The Wordpress project people have more often than not prioritized "ease" over security. This is no different.

Should there obviously be a unique, temporary password encoded in the wp-config.php that prevents this? Of course. Would it diminish "ease"? Yes, and therefore it won't happen.

They're deathly afraid of making anything more difficult to the lowest common denominator, and, by extension, the scammers of the world.

I remember years ago being a teenager and having limited access to computers and the internet so when I did have them I used my time to learn as much as I could.

When I didn’t, I got bored, and I picked up books. I remember reading books on history, biology, psychology, electronics, programming, etc. and learning from them, often just by flipping pages and reading passages that looked interesting. In fairness, even nowadays, it’s not uncommon for me to have a dozen Wikipedia tabs opened about random stuff that piqued my interest.

Nowadays I can’t get bored anymore. My phone is rarely out of arms reach and I own every steam game I ever wanted and a computer that can handle them.

Recently, I recall trying to work on a side project when I got stuck on a design aspect. My power went out later and with all my devices dead and I remember being bored to death, pacing around the apartment when the solution came to me.
It's a bunch of syntax sugar.
The proposal is that instead of typing this:

fn foo(b : bool) -> Result<Bar,Baz> {
...
return Ok(bar);
...
return Err(baz);
}

you can type:

fn foo() -> Bar throws Baz {
...
return bar;
...
throw baz; //or yeet, in this proposal
}

and it works exactly identically as the first example. ? still works inside the function just as it normally would. I find the proposal sort of pointless, but also totally harmless, so why not.

I suspect that the geographical limits of pre-internet "social platforms" was what filtered out the toxicity we observe now.

If your social club was a dance hall or book club or garden society or union pub, your interactions were limited to people within an hour of travel time or so. That's such a TINY sample of people that fringe beliefs and behaviors were always recognized as marginalia and tended to stay there.

This was a double edge sword.... queer kids in small towns were trapped in the closet, but no one thought contrails were dispersing mind altering drugs.

Social reach may be a cursed problem. It's not obvious how to create a platform that will be safe for, e.g. trans people in socially conservative towns, but prevent it from also sheltering nazi sympathizers. Relying on self policing by the platforms has resulted in problems and dangers we still haven't addressed.

The brower is not a trusted computing environment. Any expressive power you put, intentionally or not, in the hands of your Front End developers, you also put in the hands of potentially hostile users. The console is just a click away.

This is not the case in hypermedia based systems where content is generated on the server side. The server side is a trusted computing environment and, there, you can give developers a fully developed query language such as SQL without risking it falling into the wrong hands (mod coding errors by your developers, of course.)

This is a powerful argument for SSR and for hypermedia in general.

Exactly, you can't verify a system using that system, so maybe it's not possible to exactly specify all of mathematics and physics within our universe.

Roger Penrose applies this thinking to the problem of consciousness and thinks this points to a special characteristic of humans that we can decide if things are true by 'stepping outside' of a problem, and that no mathematical function can do this. Therefore no computer running a mathematical function can be like us in that way.

Well no, not if it's a consistent system, but why does it have to be consistent? We're not consistent systems and we build systems that aren't consistent all the time, including computer systems.

What kind of management tricks might someone be missing who hasn't been around too long?
>Why is the employer not the one who should subsidize it?

Because it's a government policy. If the government wants everyone to earn $25 an hour, the government should pay for it by providing a universal basic income, rather than forcing a third party to pay for it. This would also ensure that people that can't do work worth $25/hour can still survive.

The government should also be the one paying for universal healthcare, rather than (again) foisting the responsibility onto employers and forcing people to choose between being exploited in a job and losing health care for their family.
>Government is better at projects where the majority of value created is diffused across a large share of the population and/or over a long time frame. They do have a strong incentive to keep costs down, because costs are paid by taxes and taxes are unpopular and lead to revolution.

>This is simple economics.

I'm sorry, but simple economics from where? By what authority is that some immutable 'simple economics?' I reject your thesis. Regarding 'costs' being 'taxes' and them going 'down', I invite you to study the change in federal taxes as a proportion of GDP in the past say 130 years.

>There are numerous examples of government projects which may or may not have been under budget, but which created 10x or 100x or 1000x returns. Things like "public roads", "internet", "education" spring to mind.

Yes now think about how much better return, and many other projects may have emerged, had the government not sucked that money out of the economy. "Muh roads" sounds nice but you can privately build a road without taking money at gunpoint from peoeple, and also get good returns. If I take $20 from you and buy you a $1 pen, I don't get to brag that because I bought you the pen you wrote a multimillion dollar book (even then it is true in some perverted sense the pen [road] had 1000x+ returns).

> purely because they had enough money to buy housing

The nominal assumption is that they must have earned that by providing someone with something of value to them. The money they receive is a formal/cultural recognition of their indebtedness -- that they have provided something useful but have not receive anything of material value in return. Money is a way of claiming something useful in return for something they had provided, but separated in time and place.

Of course this is the theoretical and intended mechanism. It does get subverted in many ways when one earns money without providing anyone with anything materially useful. Inheritance can be interpreted as one such. Although it can be interpreted charitably too -- dont compensate me for the goods and services I provided , I am dead, compensate Saul instead.
I was referring to checking because "you should check" when you don't actually care enough to structure your program around not losing the data. It's easy to to check and emit a diagnostic, it's harder to make sure you have collected the data you've written to a file descriptor and have something sensible to do with it if the close fails.
Do most people have a "safe where they keep their personal belongings"?

i guess it would presumably be on-premises, because you're going to have to take it out to add recovery codes to it every time you add a new TOTP or whatever (or create a new private key or password) right? If it was, say, a safety deposit box at a bank, odds are it's not gonna wind up with most of your stuff. Even on-premises, the task of making sure "cold storage" stays sync'd with my evolving passwords, private keys, TOTP recovery codes, etc, seems like something I'm unlikely to keep up with.
That last part appears to be changing if there's a new government at the next election.
