You took specific objection to my comment that victory gardens were to make people "feel like they were helping". I meant this to imply some kind of externalized effect beyond just saving money.

Yes, that's why I quoted it specifically and clarified that I was talking about a home garden.

It's also probably wrong that a home garden will net save you money unless you make like $3/hr. Again, unless you're extracting pleasure from gardening.

The people that benefit the most financially from a home garden are already low paid - those are the people that aren't going to struggle to afford food as prices rise. My sister has been gardening for years, a couple years ago she kept a spreadsheet and added up her savings based on retail prices of produce and her "revenue" from her garden (which covers most of the back yard of her 1/2 acre lot plus one apple tree) was over $2500 after deducting expenses (excluding labor).

She estimated around 2 hours/day tending the garden for a 6 month growing season, so that's around 360 hours of work, or around $7/hour, which is better than she'd take home working a minimum wage job and in exchange they get all of the organic produce they can eat in the summer, plus a lot of frozen or canned food in the winter. And she ends up giving a lot of it away to friends/family.

For a lot of people here, putting in 360 hours of work to earn "only" $2500 worth of food sounds like a terrible bargain, but for many people in this country, that's a great bargain.
>>> It takes 5+ acres in a decently arable region with fertilizer to feed one person. By the time you're providing for a significant fraction of your caloric intake, it ceases to be a "garden".

This is incorrect, it takes around 1/2 an acre if it's vegetarian or 1.5 acres including chickens/ducks for meat and eggs. That's using a traditional organic farming. If you use Hydroponics (Plants grown in water with no soil) or Aeroponics (Hydroponics grown in towers) or Aquaponics (Hydroponics with aquaculture, where the fish provide both protein and the fertilizer for the plants) the yield is dramatically higher (5x-10x per sq ft) can be done year round and indoors. It's not a perfect solution, it takes knowledge to setup and run, a very small capital investment for startup, and a constant power source. That said it IS commercially viable, you can already today buy produce produced this way in almost any grocery store, and it's viable for home production. I personally have several systems running in my apartment ranging from off the shelf commercial systems (AeroGarden Back to the Roots...) to custom built aquaponics systems. On a pure dollar level it's more expensive per lb of food, no doubt but within reason I don't care about that. I grow better and fresher food and most importantly I control the supply chain.

We can and should use these kind of technologies to replace as much of the modern agriculture system as we possibly can. No of the this mentions the MASSIVE environmental improvement that switching to these systems would make, which is reason enough to do it.
Why would I opt for a network topology that restricts what devices/operating systems I can safely use on my network? Especially when I already have a solution that doesn't restrict me in this way?

It's like saying, if a person walking around at night gets mugged, it's a "them" problem for not carrying a weapon to defend themselves. Uh, no, let's create an environment where even a completely unprotected child is safe. Oh wait, we already have.

Maybe you need a change of a team. Or of an area of application - try to find something you might be interested in, but never really did before. Different language, different area (backend/frontend/data/UX, etc.), different tasks. It will be frustrating and even maybe overwhelming at first, but if you're as good as you feel to be, you can take it, and you will enrich your knowledge and your abilities on the way. And sometimes you'd also get to know how it feels when others pick you slack instead of you doing it, which would be helpful too.

Also, I'd try to seek out professional orgs and groups where you could be among people smarter than you - there's always people smarter than you, and even more knowing more than you in certain areas. Find the areas that could interest you - and seek out to meet people that know a lot, and learn from them. Bonus if it's really hard for you - you probably can use some stretching, in the intellectual sense. If you have some failures on the way - it's ok, as long as you learned something, even if it's your own boundaries and weaknesses.

On the other hand, try to delegate more. I know it would feel like you could do it better, try to ignore that and let others do it anyway. If they do it slightly wrong, try to just wait and see if they can figure out why it's wrong and learn from it. If they do it absolutely horribly wrong, try to suggest them better ways, but do not be overly pushy. Instead, try to figure out, as a personal task for yourself, why they are doing it wrong - do they just don't know a better way? Teach it to them then. Do they disagree with you on which way is better? Ask them to argue it and see if you can learn anything from their argument - even if it's only about whether they have different priorities and preferences. Try to encourage them to step up, even if initially it means sacrificing some efficiency.

I don't get why people are repeating that. WPF is not dead, it's fully supported and the project has a future roadmap.

Looking at local job postings, WPF had hundreds of hits, while MAUI has... 3 "xamarin or maui" mentions.

Indeed the USA does have some aspects of this - certainly it is too lax in preventing a set of extractive and exploitative industries/industrialists from hoarding most of the resources and income and taxing it too little

But the USA, while an unhelathy democracy, is NOT yet an authoritarian state. It is, however, within one minor and one major election from becoming one.

If you think the above description actually fully describes the USA, you REALLY haven't seen anything yet. If small-d democracy fails in the next two elections, these will truly look like the good old days, and you'll be telling your grandchildren how good it was in the early 2020s, as the USA (and probably most western democracies with it) descend to the authoritarian depths of Russia, Venezuela, China, NK, etc.

While it is far from perfect, it is critical to understand the differences, and get out and vote while you still can to prevent the much worse failure from becoming reality.
The original word (which: I can't keep up, is that really bad now? When did that happen, last week?) made more sense, really. "Vigilante" is way off from it.

Isn't Rust one of those languages based on the idea that tools matter and that should either be correct or obviously wrong?

(And no, those problems do usually not appear due to logic errors or typos in other languages. It's very, very rare.)

I'm well aware that the Rust installation script is well vetted and stable enough to be reliable. Bootstraping a development environment is also a real problem, with no good answers. It's understandable that they want to bootstrap from Bash. But as understandable as it is, it still carries the Bash issues with it.

Of course, the optimum solution would be to do it from your system's tools. That is something that will probably happen naturally given enough time.
This a fair reading of my comments, but certainly I don’t think its a fair reading of my actual life. Still, it’s worth considering what you’re saying. Have many of my work relationships been one sided? Yes, I think this is entirely possible, and something I can work on.

But then, it does seem somewhat pointless if you already know in two years maximum you’ll be moving on. I’ll have to talk with some folks that know me well to see if I can resolve this conundrum.

Thanks for your input!
Nice attempt, but you provide no calculations and conveniently ignore the fact that my multiplier isn't based on some seat of the pants hand-wavy idea but rather the most fundamental physics and math related to making solar energy. At the start of that chain of calculations is the fact that a fixed solar array will, at best, only deliver 66% of the energy of a nuclear power plant during a 12 hour solar period. That alone requires one to overbuild the array by a factor of 1.5 in order to get the same energy output. And the analysis continues from there. You double yet again to account for night time generation. You add another 25% to account for energy conversion losses. And so on.

My estimate was "over 7x". The US Department of Energy's own estimate sets it at a minimum of 10x and up to 20x.

So, no, you are wrong. And, yes, costs will sky-rocket if you have to overbuild at these scales. Even worse if we need to to double our power generation capabilities --which is what we need in order to be able to transition to electric cars. That would require 1200 nuclear power plants in the 1 GW range. If this was done with solar (using DoE numbers, not mine) you would need a minimum of 12 Tera Watts. Not sure we have the land and resources to do that in, say, 25 to 30 years.

Again, you are wrong. Do the math.

This is largely debunked by a paper posted on HN a while back I can’t seem to find right now.

Even our pets are getting fat.

Previous experiments both natural and manmade indicate that homeostasis prevents long term weight gain in situations of high caloric availability.

The conclusion of the paper was that something was introduced into the environment in the 70s that is disrupting humans’ and nearby mammals’ homeostasis mechanisms.

> I would rather have 1lb beef than 10lb nominally edible soy extractives

The argument is not "eat soy extractives instead of meat".

It's more like "lunch on veggies 2 or 3 days per week instead of having meat on every meal, including breakfast".

It obviously includes repurposing some of the land used to raise cattle into other things more suitable for direct human consumption. No one is talking about making you eat grass.

You don't need a community effort or astonishingly vast land to grow potatoes :-) What I mean by that is that the choice of stuff you grow matters. Lettuce, peppers (and one might add tomatoes) won't feed you much indeed. They are however indeed interesting in small spaces when you don't expect them to feed you but to provide you nice, fresh extras.

I mean, I produce about 800 lbs of vegetables by spending 20 mn a day on it (average on 365 days, which means more at times and nothing at other times). Surely it requires more space that you had. But no motorised tool involved, no fertiliser but a tiny bit of manure (no fancy permaculture tricks either, just traditional beds), no pesticide except in case of emergency like once a year on 10% of the garden, no watering except in case of emergency again, no search of any optimisation (time, space, yield, ...). It isn't a bid deal to get a partial yet significant autonomy; it just gets harder and harder as you want to get close to 100%.

There are stuff you can keep across winter in storage without transformation, like potatoes or cereals (onions, shallot don't do bad either); and stuff that can be kept where they lie, in the ground, like parsnip, sunchoke, and a few other root vegetables; cabbage can stay too, leeks as well. (Of course, it depends on the geographical location.)

Yeah, a base of potatoes + cabbages + onions get you a long way; and they are quite versatile as far as cooking is concerned.
Adversarial: involving or characterized by conflict or opposition.

Nope, this is correct language. Your company wants to buy labor for the lowest possible cost to them. You want to be paid the highest possible wage. You are in conflict, direct opposition. A negotiation, by its nature, is a way of resolving conflict. War would be another. But the fact that unionists and socialists remove the social niceties and get down to brass tacks doesn't change the nature of the labor market.

When you have a hammer and sickle, everything looks like the class war, because it is to us.
Think doors and keys then. Or "smart locks" and "biometric scanners" if that's still not modern enough for you. There's a cost to convenience. Yeah, it'd be really convenient if your house didn't have any walls, you could just walk into any room from anywhere else. But so could any untrusted party.

Bugs and therefore vulnerabilities are inevitable. The larger your attack surface, the more likely some rando is to find a vulnerability and exploit it. No walls is real convenient up until someone unexpected walks right in and trashes the place.

wealth isn't the same as "i can get money for this"
I'm only in my early 40s but as a young trader I sat next to people who traded the 1987 crash, Asia, Russia (90s), and the dotcom crash plus 9/11.

Hindsight changes a lot of things. For one the market recovered from all previous crashes, with one major exception.

I traded through 2008. It felt apocalyptic. I got a text message from a guy at Lehman on the Monday, surprised he was now out of a job. There was a queue of people at Northern Rock.

We knew that a lot of bad things were about to come out, basically things that had been papered over to fix dotcom. The whole subprime thing was predictable, I went to a lunch at Goldman's where they basically just said it out loud, the subprime market is gonna explode and maybe take some other things with it.

But what we have now feels like it's sweeping even that under the rug. Growth didn't bounce back hugely afterwards, it's been mild. But interest rates have hit a low nobody that imagined. The whole period since 2008 has been exceptional. A lot of things that seemed like frothy excess went on for a long time. A lot of stuff that should have died in 2008 got to live.

So yeah it feels really big, but no climax thus far. No Lehman yet, and no Madoff. A couple of things sort of felt like maybe they would cascade, but didn't, eg Bill Huang's fund going down. For the GFC we had the two Bear Stearns funds going down as a preshock. Not sure if Luna really qualifies, given the amount of crazy things that happen in crypto.

Similar story here. All the laptops I used had the trackpoint and I didn't want to give it up until I tried an MBP in 2012. The trackpad was miles better than any other trackpad I'd used. Other machines have gotten better trackpads now, though I still haven't tried one that is as good as the current MacBook trackpads. But at least I don't hate every moment of using non-Mac trackpads anymore.
Here's a good comparison between Elixir, Go, and Node:

https://stressgrid.com/blog/benchmarking_go_vs_node_vs_elixi...

Some of the things I like better about Elixir and Erlang vs. Go and Java are:

- In Elixir/Erlang, all processes are stored in private memory and can only be accessed via defined message interfaces. In both Go and Java, processes are stored in public memory.

- Elixir/Erlang processes are a lot smaller, memory-wise, than Go/Java processes.

- We moved all of our development at my current company from Java to Elixir because Elixir, being functional, makes writing multi-threaded applications a lot faster/easier. Elixir is also cheaper to deploy. At least that has been our experience.

- I like the syntax of both Elixir and Erlang better than Go, Java, or JS.

- I don't have as much experience with Node/Express, but in my limited testing with Node/Express vs. Elixir/Phoenix, the latter is several times faster and much more scalable. It also makes better use of hardware (which I believe is discussed in the link above).

I hope at least some of this helps answer your question.
Thanx for the explanation, so if you create the repo on the server, can you just got clone server.ip then? How do you clone it? Does that git init —bare command create a server?
> More employees also does not mean faster product development, every developer knows this is often the complete opposite.

This is only true up to a point. Otherwise, every startup would be a one man show.
I switched from 'exciting startups' to boring CRM for a decade, and TBH, it was very useful (and not actually boring). It was an opportunity to work in a smaller (150-700 person) company doing interesting stuff (mobile, cloud tooling, and then eventually post-sales technical services) but in an environment full of more grounded, less frenetically bouncing off the walls people...it gave you a pacing and maturity to actually learn more by not being so focused on externalities. The CV still looks good, the stuff I worked on still very relevant, but at a pace and with an atmosphere more conducive to accomplishing stuff I wanted.

....so now the 'trick' is to be blending both into something that stays interesting (to at least me), but also not requiring me to bend into unnatural shapes to maintain, with any new place I go. In my case that makes me very ideal for startups heading into their first stages of organizational maturity (they want to stop operating from the proverbial seat of pants and start scaling some kind of process).
