I think that our human nature is the source of this. Having spare time often means being bored (initially an unpleasant sensation) and potentially coming to terms with your own life, behavior and intentions. Only after a while of discomfort do you get the gains: creativity and growth.

I have introduced people around me to meditation, and some just cannot bear to be idle. They start to ruminate and feel like they can handle it.
I really don't understand why people keep pushing Kubernetes to developers.

Every time someone talks about infrastructure software to developers, the answer is always the same, from top to bottom and up, from devs to executives: developers should not worry about infra, you should abstract infra from devs.

Why does this not apply to Kubernetes?

Kubernetes is a complex beast from hell and it's hard even for ops people.

People should be working on abstracting Kubernetes from developers, not pushing developers to know the ins and outs of Kubernetes.
FWIW, nobody can define what "excess profit" is exactly.

Let me correct myself, the government can define it, in any way, shape or form they want to.

For example, casinos do not have "excess profits". Companies owned by the family members and friends/relatives of government officials do not have "excess profits".

"The question really becomes, why did symbolic ai research die when it's so effective at specialization?"

I think we want "AI" that scales faster than humans can implement.

Some autotuning can be done, of course, but it's largely a program being written. Who has time for that?
JetBrains' All-Products Pack costs me only 150€/year + VAT (250€ individual license minus 40% for subscribing for 3+ years) which is also fully tax deductible. In the end it costs me less than my cinema budget for a year of top notch products with proper support and bug fixing where I don't have to wait months for an answer.

I stand by my 2 by 4 comment because they get the work done, just slower and more awkward. It's always super amusing how software developers with one of the highest salaries around the world (yes, even in poorer regions) complain about costs when other jobs require tens of thousands in initial investment.
This has been brewing for the last 50~ years. The average testosterone level found in men is drastically lower than our ancestors. Testosterone is a man's primary hormone, and being deficient in it can cause a multitude of issues including depression, little to no sex drive, and even sperm count. Yes, diet and exercise play a role in overall health and T production, but this goes deeper than that.

I know the article isn't about testosterone, but I believe this is all connected in some way or another.

It's been a while since I looked at it, but I believe Android uses fork for it's copy-on-write sementics to optimize app startup. On boot it initializes a single instance of the app runtime environment. Then when you launch apps that initial process is forked. As a result you do not need to reinitialize the runtime for every app launch.

IBM has stalled because it stopped innovating, and instead pushing highly cumbersome, expensive, consulting-centric "products" that are nothing more than expensive services tied to proprietary technologies. Where IBM isn't proprietary, it rests heavily on open source offerings that it has acquired (RedHat). Ironically, it's IBM itself that is every much the sclerotic "dinobaby" that it seems to dislike. Simply hiring in a younger pool won't change that dynamic. If anything, that approach is deeply cynical, and only makes sense when you realize that IBM sees its growth in services and "solutions" offerings that depend on large numbers of lesser-paid, non-family bound "early professional hires" that they seem to desire.

IBM placed bets on highly speculative "moonshot" programs like IBM Watson (especially Watson Health) that failed, while simultaneously failing to effectively compete in the growing cloud-centric market. IBM could have been a realistic contender in the Enterprise against AWS, Google, and Microsoft cloud environments, but it instead opted for large-scale vendor lock-in style approaches.

Well, 5% of the population in general is the expected ratio of people with ADHD, but only 2% of the adult population is diagnosed with it, and it doesn't magically go away when you become an adult.

So, there's definitely a chance. Two thoughts:

- Everyone will occasionally exhibit some ADHD symptoms, the question is how often. Monthly? Probably not a problem. Hourly, or every few minutes? Probably is a problem.

- See a professional. Self diagnosis can't get you the help you need.

Relevant to this discussion at large is Lloyd Pendleton's TED talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/lloyd_pendleton_the_housing_first_...

It really is worth a watch.

One of the things he breaks down is that there are really three homeless populations:

About 75% of people are "Temporarily Homeless", about 10% of people are "Episodically Homeless", and about 15% of people are "Chronically Homeless".

That last group consumes 60%+ of community resources in addition to costing taxpayers money in the form of consuming police and EMT resources.

Focusing on the chronically homeless is the highest leverage way to spend money. And the housing first model has shown amazing success.

If you want to IPO a tech company and make a minimum of 9 figures, then going to Stanford is probably a part of the most reliable (or, at least, "least unreliable") path to doing so.

Or, at least, it was back when Stanford was the kind of place that it is in the process of not being anymore.

Even then, though, realistically if you're not already part of the "Stanford Set", following that path probably doesn't radically change your chances of success at that specific mission.
The problem with what you're saying is that incivility does not directly cause death. I could not actually kill you by writing a lot of really clever insults, not even if they were worthy of Guybrush Threepwood. The deaths "caused" by insults are in fact mediated through rare mental illnesses, and that calls in to question the issue of responsibility. If you bumped into me on the sidewalk and, because a rare illness made me extremely sensitive to impacts, I died, a court would not hold you responsibly like they would me if I hit you with a car. The degree to which the effect of the cause is typical matters a lot in designing legislation or making fair decisions that apply equally to everyone.
Well, growing problems were to be expected, for all late adopters they have the misfortune of playing catch up while trying to deliver EVs at scale. This is why tech get its so wrong when it comes to auto manufacturing, I recall someone here said that Apple could replace most OEMS because of the bankroll.

They simply do not understand that it's more involved than that, and that money can buy many things but it cannot ensure success in this sector.

It's not a good look, but it also underscores just how many things can and in fact do go wrong in the mass production of EVs, and its easy to play arm chair expert, but unless you've ever done this you seriously have no idea how difficult it really is.
IMO if you say X in real life and a judge says you to to jail then why would it be different if you said X on the internet or on the phone? Seems reasonable that your free speech has consequences if you cause harm even if your speech was on the TV,internet or a news paper. Regular laws should apply for all speech.
Why do you feel like you have to progress towards something? You enjoy time on HN yet comes this guilt telling you it was wasted - because a certain school of thought regards anything not "progressing" as waste. Some say that started with capitalism, others say it started from the protestants, but you're definitely not the first or only one living with this guilt of "wasting". Because any pleasure is waste, according to that school of thought.
> The taxes would be very painful.

Why? If you get paid in bitcoin, the easiest for taxes is to sell immediately.

The value of the bitcoin at the time you receive them has to be declared as income anyway. If you sell little by little over time, you need to declare the income anyway + keep track of transactions for capital gains taxes.

There will never be a time at which you can reliably expect any program developed on one system to "just work" on a different system. This person wasted a lot of time tracking down what was essentially a portability bug. Did they need this to be portable? Was this time well spent generating business value?

Pick one system for development through production, stick to it. There will be portability bugs hiding in your code, but you will never have to fix them. You will be upset for a minute that you can't use a different system, but you will get over it.

In general - talk to a psych/therapist/sex therapist. Sex drive is weird, and the mind is weird :)

But also, there is no "I supposedly should not be this". You are who you are. There's an entire community of people who are asexual, and that is fine. If it bugs you personally, by all means, I recommend spelunking in your brain and finding out more. But please don't feel you have to conform to some sort of ideal.

Yes, there are your partner's needs. But if you just aren't that sexual, it is time for a (difficult) conversation - how else can they get their needs fulfilled. You can try to just make yourself be that person, but if it's truly not who you are, there's a price to pay down the road. (Hence, please talk to a professional - they're much better at helping you navigate this complex area than randos on the Internet)

> This would finally motivate me to cancel the cable TV subscription

Which is exactly why blackouts exist. Live tv is pretty much solely about sports and 24 hour news channels now. The big four sports leagues all make billions a year off their TV deals. Giving up blackouts would absolutely hamstring them.

Hard to believe the other leagues will give up blackouts until they are confident they can run their own streaming service and cash in on that micro gambling revenue. Can you imagine how much money the NFL would make if people were gambling $.10-1 on every play?
It doesn't matter what you think. It's fairly obvious even without any research that losing some amount of agency and struggling with things others don't can impact someone very negatively.
Real question, has anyone actually developed an attack that could be executed? I know “what it would look like” is easy to explain, but is there any implementation?

I’m not sure we’re super susceptible to an attack. Assuming you could spot an attack on the network post-hoc (anyone can read the blockchain), if an attack occurred it would destroy the value of bitcoin. This would probably destroy the value of the attackers coins and the attackers mining rigs… which seems like a net loss.
While true, that's a bit reductionist. All companies want higher profits. What's interesting is how companies differ from each other while chasing that goal.

> for a week or two

And how do you arrive at that figure? You cannot possibly have arrived at it by any principled means, because...

> Disease spread is an exponential process

Indeed. And because it is an exponential process, decreasing the rate of spread will not result in a fixed delay for all infections, it will result in a decrease in the exponent. Some people will get it a week later than they otherwise would have, some two weeks later, some three weeks... and if you reduce the exponent enough, the result will be exponential decay rather than growth, and some people will never get it at all. And even if you don't get to that point, reducing the exponent can make the difference between hospitals having enough capacity, and being overloaded and having people dying in the streets and having to rent refrigerator trucks to store the bodies.

Furthermore, vaccines are dramatically effective at reducing the rate of severe illness and death, so even if everyone gets infected and even if they get infected as quickly as they otherwise would have, you still have fewer people dying from covid, and you also have fewer people dying from other causes because the hospitals are overloaded with covid patients. That seems like a win to me.

> > The rate of spread matters a lot.

> That is a different argument

Different from what? Your original claim was there is no societal benefit to vaccination, only an individual benefit, and that is just plainly false. One of the reasons it is false (but far from the only reason) is that lowering the rate of spread has societal benefits in and of itself, even if everyone eventually gets infected anyway, and even if there were no other benefits, like reducing the risk of serious disease and death.

BTW, there are more logical holes in your argument:

> Most people I talk to had COVID and caught it off a vaccinated individual.

Well, of course they did. That's because:

> it is impossible for it to be the vaccinated. There aren't enough of them and they've been locked out of a lot of places where superspreader events are happening

If you isolate all of your unvaccinated population, then of course all of the transmission is going to happen among the vaccinated. The vaccines aren't perfect. That doesn't mean they confer no public-policy benefits. They clearly do.

Honestly, the quality of your reasoning is comparable to a flat-earther.

That's probably the most absolutist statement of the concept I've ever seen; my respect for posting it plainly.

In this form, it's easy to show the flaw in this line of thought, because it concludes with literal extermination of the species ("the last person" implies no further people). And if a right leads to extermination of the species, what good was that right in the first place?

All rights have a balance point. Most hinge on where the rights of others begin. The freedom of speech (in the form of criticism of power) has massive value to the formation and maintenance of a free society, which is why some nations protect it so zealously. But even those nations have recognized its constraint in various contexts.

The position described here is a fringe position and should remain one to maximize the value of free speech.
Laws like this sound well-intentioned enough but are rampant for abuse and unequal application. If someone is outraged at some controversial policy or statement, how does that play out? Especially when the people in question are public figures:

> professional wrestler Hana Kimura died in 2020 at age 22 following cyberbullying on social media over her remarks on a reality romance show that she had been part of.

Imagine if someone was locked up for a year because they said mean things about Tucker Carlson. This makes more sense if it's narrowly defined to encompass people without public presence, but it seems to include public figures as well.
>If everyone died and the last person was able to speak freely, it would be worth it.

Broadly though -- this article is generally not wrong, but will also likely prove not super helpful; the correct way to respond to these problems is generally all the things that aren't STEM.

This is why the "humanities" or whatever we're calling them these days are presently FAR more important (and I say that as someone who runs a STEM non-profit.)
> People dying is a small price to pay for free speech.

Well, that depends on the amount of dying and the kind of speech.
Maybe, maybe not, but I'd question some blanket assertion being made without evidence that deeply religious people experience less existential dread. It's going to depend on plenty of other cultural specifics, of course, but not all religions involve an afterlife and some involve the possibility of an afterlife that is much worse than simply running out of time.

There is also the issue that common western manifestations of existential dread, i.e. the Nietzshe eternal return, Sartre's dilemma of having no choice but to make a choice but all of them are bad, even up to the contemporary worries about near-infinite compounding of sub-optimal ethics in far-future focused EA circles and AI-risk circles, are not in any way mitigated by the possibility of an afterlife. All the trillions of future people you cause suffering to will still suffer even if you end up in heaven.

"Right" implies there is some objective authority who could tell you whether you are using your time the correct way or not. Thinking about spending time this way leads me to feel guilty (I'm not spending it the right way!).

The question I ask myself is "what do I want?". It is a tough question. I consider my present and future needs, as well as how I feel. When I have thought about my answer, then it becomes clearer how I want to spend my time.
