> It seems when people have the means, they choose to live in houses.

I’m not sure why this point escapes so many people. When your country is vast in size and all it takes is a little bit of driving to get where you need to go, most people are going to choose big, cheap houses to tiny, expensive apartments all day long.
Tell how it goes please.
You are not trying to avoid failure, you are giving yourself a cushion to avoid confronting the fact that you may not be as good as you think that you are.

The cushion is that you didn't apply yourself to the maximum because you procrastinated and ergo it isn't you who failed, but a you who did not apply themselves.

Why do we do it? Out of self preservation. Confronting the fact that the reality does not match our idealized self is a very difficult process as it leaves us vulnerable and exposed. We feel that our lack of skills will be exposed and everyone will see that we are failures.

In reality, there is only one self, you that is choosing not to do what you have to because you are trying to protect a fragile ego.

I don't mean to sound harsh, all humans do it in one way or the other.

But eventually reality catches up to us and forces us to confront our situation. In the expectation you will do as you always did. However, if you condition the future on taking failure as an indicator for growth rather than an indicator of danger, you will be able to overcome the situation.

Take what you fear the most and tame it by actively trying, and instead of thinking you will fail, think and accept that it is an indicator of all the new things you will learn.

NB: Speaking from experience.

PS. Radical acceptance is a powerful tool in getting out of these situations.

My take is that contrary to Curtis, Moxie is exaggerating or highlighting some extreme instances of "the worst" to make his point. I doubt he actually systematically goes out of his way to buy the worst stuff, as his point is to not care that much about stuff.
"There's an app for that." I mean, right ?
I’m sure it’s buggy software didn’t help and I think it contributed to IBM’s reputation for poor software.
Yes, if a human is dead that's not a person. We could imagine this not being so. In fact it's a common idea in supernatural fiction, and of course it's a crucial idea in some religions - but in our universe when humans are dead they cease to be people.

Is it possible to get it wrong? Sure. Over history we've got this wrong lots of times, and as you showed the most dramatic examples make news. I don't see how the fact that people are capable of error justifies a pretence that newborns are people.

> I find it bizarre that you do.

Why? Feeling envious is just human nature. Sure, one can argue that in our current society that kind of feeling is "bad", and we should "fix it". I tend to agree, but that you find it bizarre, it's bizarre to me :D

> No amount of encryption prevents relay attacks.

Encryption + timestamp + message that expires after MAX_DISTANCE/c seems like it would be pretty foolproof. There are of course some challenges in having enough precision in the clocks, though.
Plan9 and EMACS have architecture which is antithetic to economic model of todays software industry, so in that sense im glad we did have windows95-like buggy macos (until atleast 10.4-10.5) XD

EMACS is essentially SAP+github+Office(including Visio and Power Automate) for your own offcloud usage. If you think about it.
I think it depends on how and why you use social media. For me, having picked Twitter back up recently after having been mostly dormant for the past 4 years or so, it is about inspiration.

The next thing for me is to create a startup. I am immersing myself back in to the heartbeat / pulse of what's going on and thinking about how my ideas intersect with this.

There are a lot of inspiring projects I am following lately, specifically around devtools, platforms, etc. that almost exclusively exist on these mediums.
No, it does not beat Time-of-Flight measurement. What it does achieve is keeping GATT response latency within normal ranges, so that the GATT response latency cannot be reliably used as an indication of relay attacks. GATT response latency can vary by tens of milliseconds, whereas Time-of-Flight is usually measured in microseconds or nanoseconds. Unfortunately, Bluetooth LE alone lacks a mechanism for time of flight measurement in secure ranging, hence why technologies like UWB are needed.
I certainly wouldn't want a second hand GPU that'd been used for mining; it'd be ragged.

Look into Cognitive Distortions - those are the self conversation lies we tell ourselves, as we "play ourselves". Cognitive distortions take the form of exaggerations of the unknown future, reading others' minds (which is impossible) and then taking a negative thought attributed to others as truth. Cognitive distortions are in general are a nasty little asshole inside your head constantly being negative.

I suggest you look into Dr. David Burns, the father of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the first person to seriously document and address this negative self conversation vicious cycle, and how to defeat it.

Do you use source control or do you email zips with the source files between you and the other developers? The collaboration here is exactly the same as that distinction in workflows.

It's obviously not just "two clicks", it's "Text copy 2 final final alt reviewed.doc" and then you get a new person email their suggested updates to you as "Text copy 2 final 2.doc" and you have to somehow merge those suggestions in with the head version.

With Word at least there's the ability to do suggestions rather than direct edits to let you collaborate against nonsynced docs at all, but with Inkscape when that happens you'll literally just get a different svg and you can't actually merge at all, instead you'd need to conceptually understand what edits were made and then make them again manually to the "head" version, which is completely redundant work.
I personally would threaten. Setting clear boundaries is important, “I’m unhappy in my current role and I’m looking for new opportunities. I’d love to find one at _this_ company but if we can’t work something out I may have to leave.”

I’ll admit though that I’m biased and my own team is currently looking for high-level ICs (senior and principal) who want to stay and grow in that role. If you (or any readers) are interested message tyler@recroom.com

I’m a high-level IC who used to manage a team of 12. Company was more than happy to let me do IC work, hired a manager of my choice to fill my previous role, _and_ promoted me with pay increase after the transition. I’d say my work is ~50% coding, ~25% architecture discussions, 12% mentoring, and 12% leadership meetings.
I heard the argument before that relay attacks can’t be solved because it is too hard to measure distance/time of flight. Except that the NASA Apollo missions were able to do so, on a 2ghz signal with 1.5 meter accuracy all the way to the moon. It used complex equipment back then, but not by today’s standards. It’s not impossible, it is just too expensive.

The main difference between now and 1315 is the amount of calories we get from meat. When we have a food shortage, farmers can't afford to feed their cattle so they sell them, depressing the price of beef. Rich people eat more beef, and poor people eat cattle feed.

What really causes starvation is a shortage of shipping. Shipping wheat from Thunder Bay to Egypt requires a lot more ships than shipping from Odessa to Egypt.
PineNote is looking good, but it's not ready yet - crucially, it's lacking in proper power management firmware, so it eats through batteries right now.

Something akin to FOMO. I feel "out of touch". I don't like it 100% but there are some benefits to it. The platform itself doesn't encourage the beneficial behaviours though. It just tries to get you hooked.

I travel more than average so I am happy seeing friends going on trips. It's rare that their trip looks better than what I've just done or have planned next. But I could absolutely see how someone might spectate a feed full of holidays and feel from the aggregate like everyone else is constantly travelling, while they grind away at work.

Maybe not the most popular person, but I think Jordan Peterson has some really nice lectures and talks about this subject in YouTube. Also about fear.

Insickness in this thread also pointed this out: start with the smallest step.

And when it comes to fear: become braver. What helped me a lot was to accept fear.
There are more direct approaches, but, recognize those thoughts as bubbling up from lower levels of brain function, that they are not who you are nor are they your destiny nor are you required to act upon them, leave them be, and do what you need to be doing, with your attention on the doing. If you engage with the thoughts (by trying to change them or suppress them or argue with them), you simply strengthen the associated neurology. If you respond to the thoughts with avoidance, you strengthen that associated neurology.
At that point, you would think there would be some introspection with respect to the hiring process and the possibility of an alarming number of false negatives occurring due to absurd leetcode gauntlets. But, naaah...
Deleted Facebook 2 years ago, Instagram 1 year ago.
The only social media account I have today is on Twitter and I am thinking about deleting that one.

It is true that you can feel a bit isolated from everyone, but it pushes you to go out with people and ask them what have they been up to, send them a message etc. I find the time spent on that much more valuable than the time spent on social media. While it is true that you can get up to what people are doing, I found that I spend the least amount of time getting up to date" with people I know and much more just scrolling through and "exploring" on all of these social media sites.

If you feel similar, I highly recommend you to delete any of the social media apps.
I'm no expert, but I think your best bet might be electrifying something old enough to not already have any of these problems.

This was a slow process, but:

1. Regular written self-reflection, i.e., keeping a journal and

2. Re-framing "failures" as learning experiences; forgive yourself

helped me a lot.

The written part was important to me because it forced me to revisit my previous thoughts and reevaluate them in light of what had happened since last time I wrote.

(2) also helped me do things with the mind-set that "failure" wasn't actually failure. The goal was to try and learn from it.

I didn't get around to doing this until after school, but I wish I had. In your situation, I'd try to get myself to do the assignment with a quick pass early on leaving notes for things I wasn't sure about. Take a break, then revisit and revise. Afterwards, write in your journal what worked well and what didn't. Write about what you want to try next time differently if some things come to mind.

Hope you find a solution that works for you. E-mail is in my profile if you want to talk more about what's worked for me.

The kitchen is considered the “heart of the home”, in the USA at least. The trend has been towards larger and more luxurious kitchens as they’re seen as the most used communal room and the centerpiece for entertaining.

So even if you don’t cook often you’ll see 48” ranges, counter depth fridges, and custom cabinetry and islands in high end homes.

It’s not uncommon for a modern luxury kitchen to cost more than most homes across the country.

High end and custom is expensive.

Indeed Python is relatively simple language. It also adheres to the principle of least astonishment and dynamic types are used towards this goal. Finally it does not mind making large changes to the language.

With Python most of the time when you have an unexpected result with the language or a library it is often a matter of realizing "OK that's the way it works", and moving on with your work. The language and libraries strive so much to always return sensible results that they are fewer instances when you would call a behavior a bug.
This is the current reality, except the templates are generated by ML, and they are impossible to debug or explain.

The UX opportunity is how you apply information from the system. You can’t just accept the output as it is.
I have the opposite experience. I've tried Illustrator and some Corel products, but Inkscape has been the most easy-to-approach tool for me.
What you want to do is try to get past the emotional part of it. I find laughing helps. You want a kind of telling stories around the campfire attitude about it.

For example, I once spend 2 weeks trying to decide on a startup name, for a startup that barely even exists anymore. It's funny now, and I think about that when I'm trying to pick names for things now. But in those 2 weeks it was not funny! I felt terribly guilty during that time.

Try to take it / treat it lightly. Joke about it. I know that's hard to do when you're in the middle of it though.

Keep in mind the point is to actually do the thing. Maybe my way doesn't work as well for and you find something else. I think it's worthwhile to experiment with different ideas here.

I’m exactly the same, turned my 3 year degree into a 5 year slog because I’d get too anxious to do assignments or even exams. Took me a long time (decades) to learn about anxiety and it’s impacts, so you’re doing well to be aware of it earlier.

Therapy & mindfulness has been a huge help for me. It’s helped me be more aware of how I’m feeling, and to take steps when I’m feeling anxious. For example, I’ve got a regular reminder in my
Phone to check in with how I’m feeling, to actively think about what I’m avoiding, and to consider what it is I’m afraid of that’s causing me to avoid. If I’m feeling anxious or avoidant, then I do something to help, like try to ”explore” why I’m feeling that way, and to do some mindful breathing / grounding exercises.

You’ve done really well to ask here for advice, being vulnerable and open is a huge first step. I’d recommend seeing a professional therapist or counsellor if you can, especially while you’re studying - your education institution should have some people who can help.
Not necessarily, a FIR heater (which is also resistive) deposits a larger fraction of its input energy in humans than a GPU cooler which heats the air which then indirectly warms the human and also everything else.

It's not about how the customer used them.

It's about what NVidia told their stockholders in reports.

Rather than: "This years growth is fueled by sales to the cryptominer market" (which is a pretty dang volatile market to sell to as a crash will floor nvidia's market with cheap used cards rather than selling overinflated new ones...)

They lied and said: "oh yeah no, totes all those gamers buying cards for sick rigs", and the pc gamer market is much more stable, it's predictable, you know roughly when / how much of the market will be buying new to replace a card that's now too old/limited.

tl;dr they lied about who they were selling to, because the volatility (no guarantee of that market still existing in a year or two's time) would make shareholders understandably nervous.

I've heard it put this way: energy is the only resource. If we have enough energy almost anything can be recycled or turned into anything. Wastewater and saltwater can be turned back into fresh water. Trash can be separated and recycled. With sufficient and sufficiently cheap energy vertical farming is even an option.
You actually should exercise while fasting. When fasting, t he body gets rid of fat, and any muscles that are not essential. Which makes a lot of sense - maintaining muscle costs both protein and energy, even if they aren’t used much.

I did not try to run quickly while fasting, but I did keep doing my 5km 3 times per week, and the gym. Anaerobic was hard and quickly tiring, but aerobic exercise wasn’t really any harder.

A friend did point out that my movement was “more economical” in general - I hardly lifted my feet while running or walking, and a few other things. But I didn’t feel more tired or more strained, except for unaerobics.

Note, I have a bias as I had anxiety through ADHD.

That being said both Anxiety and ADHD have the same exact dopamine problem which means that analogues of dopamine and serotonin treat anxiety if it's cause is genetic in nature.

I do not know if the poster has a genetic version of anxiety, however if they do here is what I take for my ADHD that works for anxiety:

L-theanine
ashwagandha(its what is in Maca!)
L-dopa

and my further twist is to take a tablespoon if raw Cacao powder in mornings as
it has two ingredients caffiene and anandamide.

Anandamine is what interacts with CBD receptors, i.e. if you want to get around the TCH in CBD oil this is the way to do it as anandamine obviously is not tested for i the THC tests and there are no addictions associated with anandamine.

Caution, it does not solve the emotional past obstacle you have set up for yourself. to solve that part you have to drastically change your life from consuming to doing in the form of making and creating and communicating. And yes, it is in fact a lot of work. But, I can tell if you make the honest effort towards this life-change you will be rewarded with the amazing stuff you can do once that life-change take hold.

GObject's object model is insanely overcomplicated. It's more or less an implementation of C++ in C. It's overkill if you just want resizable arrays, hash tables, and maybe some trees.
I haven't seen any convincing evidence that significant muscle loss occurs with a 7 day fast. If you get a DEXA scan before and after, you will have lost a lot of "lean body mass" and your muscles will be smaller, but it's only because you lose about 5-10lbs of water weight.

The only major health risk is refeeding syndrome, and even then it's only really notable if you're an alcoholic or have anorexia. If you're otherwise healthy with normal sodium/potassium/etc. intake and you take it slow when refeeding, I don't think it's particularly dangerous. Obviously, talk to your doctor, and it's probably good to get blood work before doing something like this.

(Disclosure: I don't live in the US)

Don't we at least have to look at who was replaced and what their voting record was?

It seems simplistic to say that any justice appointed by a President in party X is strictly supportive of X's policy. What would that mean anyway, since from the outside it seems there are a fairly broad range of policies and view on major issues inside each of the two parties...?

In the UK there's TheyWorkForYou[0] where you can search for your political representative and get a quick overview on how they vote by policy area, and a deeper list of voting record on individual votes grouped by topic. You can find MPs inside one party with wildly different voting records. Is there something like this for the US Supreme Court? If not, why not?

I know it's fictional, but I'm thinking of The West Wing S05E17 "The Supremes" and the scene towards the end in the Roosevelt Room[1] in which it turns out that pigeonholing people isn't quite as straightforward as we might think.
