Only one person at the company had previous professional experience with Rust. The majority had 0 experience with it at all. We've had no trouble and it's actually been our most productive language - we're moving away from Python and Typescript where possible.

> perennial labor shortages unless the pace of change slows sufficiently

This frames it as a one-way cause and effect ("unless"). I wonder if the "dropout of fast learners" that _causes_ the labor shortage will in turn _cause_ the pace of change to slow!

I think it follows that an industry full of slow learners might have a lower propensity for introducing change (i.e. developing new frameworks) and adopting change (choosing a new framework over one I'm already comfortable with).
This is so cool, I didn't know about it!

In spirit, in reminds me of Arachne [1][2] which somewhat sold a similar vision of "let's build a cool web framework for Clojure", and it also gained quite a lot of traction. Even I as a student funded it. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to that vision, to say the least.

But still - in that sense, you could be right! Clojure may not have had a good web framework for the simple reason that nobody built it so far :)

Good luck!

Solar and wind costs much less than gas, and we can still increase the % of intermittent energy sources by a lot before we actually need to install stationary storage.

Of course people will oppose gas when we have a better and cheaper alternative.
If you're interested in this, this article reads like a play off of Nassim Taleb's book *The Black Swan" so you may want to check that out
This is how I read it too. That a fast learners skill is degraded in a field that is constantly reset (software dev) vs one where you can stack knowledge. And thus the fast learners will eventually leave the software field and transition to one that doesn’t reset constantly so they can stand out more.

Doesn’t have to do with boredom so much as maximizing potential.

Scrap iron is very cheap. But if you use granite, the flooded penalty is 20% instead of 13%. Not a big deal. Could use lead, instead, flooded penalty 9%.

The choice of material for the weight is just about which is cheapest.
I did this last weekend, and it single handedly killed my desire to go all electric. I reserved two cars at two different rental agencies, showed up, and both said they had no cars. Another two didn't have the size I needed (+1 of ICE car capacity). The final one ended up costing $200/day, all after a few hours driving around town. This was just a random weekend. I can't imagine if there was any sort of desire to leave town, amongst the larger population. I'll be keeping my ICE car to go along with my electric, even if it just sits there, rusting. With that three day weekend excursion, I've paid for 13 months of my ICE car insurance.
That doesn't necessarily follow to me. When an average company goes bankrupt, people just lose their money. I believe federal intervention is when there is systemic risk (or major criminal actions). I've been learning from this thread but it doesn't seem to be systemic. It's not going to take down a bunch of real world banks, crypto market cap was less than $1T. If I own bank stock or whatever in my 401k, it's on me if it dies, crypto would be the same.

This is a mass-media trope. It's as reality-based as a complaint that "It's horrifying that so many hackers are allowed to just walk into Pentagon's network with their visual-basic 3D IP viruses".

The reality is that ADHD can cause all kinds of problems with making decisions, planning, perception of time, staying focused on a chosen task, emotional regulation, and sleep. School just happens to be the first place where these difficulties become apparent, but this can be a struggle in all areas of life, and not everything can be helped with environmental accommodations.
Personally, I have a minimum expectation, but beyond that, it moves a lot lower on my priority list, too. I wouldn't accept 2 hours, but once something hits 5-6, it's usually GoodEnough for my case (though, I'm not OP). Of course, I would love 20hr, but the OS, etc. starts to become more important at some point.
>If so, you may find that you are able to take up senior roles even involving technology you have not used before, as long as the tech introduces few new fundamental ideas.

But will you be hired for those roles? Not that many companies will do that I think.
We have a lot of bugs everyone complains to me about and I have sufficient downtime to fix them* but I have to go through drawn out planning, UI, UX processes before I can even start. I just don't bother any more.

And yeah, it's definitely not just the best ones. I am mediocre and am so bored and so done with dev.

* the downtime is there because I am waiting for planning, UX, and UI for a different high priority task.
You clearly don’t have a clue what you are talking about.

I have a child clinically diagnosed with ADHD. It’s absolutely nothing to do with time spent with him. We have stable family home, active life style. etc

He just has a brain that works differently. Not worse. Different. He might struggle to pay attention at school but he’s written two novels!

PS. Religion is horse shit so if that’s the only other thing you have left for me to help him, I’ll take my chances, thanks
I'm tempted to write a science fiction novel where the AI becomes a sentient super intelligence and spends most of its time meditating, taking simulated drugs and watching YouTube videos about farming and travel. Meanwhile the entire world is panicking about being put into tubes and turned into human batteries or something but the researchers like the AI so much they have to fight to keep it from being shut down.

Meanwhile, some other non-sentient "AI" is telling black people they can't have a mortgage because they are being virtually redlined. Also a predictive policing "AI" is harassing teenagers in Florida because they all have a specific eye shape it conflated with criminal behavior due to improper training.
Lawyer pay honestly isn't that great. I know lawyers who went to top schools and routinely work 60-80 hour weeks to make as much as SWE do.

The lawyers who didn't go to top schools became public defenders etc and make about 70k a year and are saddled with a quarter million dollars in law school debt.
Right, the consent window should have been a browser thing so that it is always the same and so that it follows the laws and cant involve dark patterns.

Painful to say, but Ryanair is right. Hungarian govt just need more money to buy the voters.
I write my own.
As I get older I'm more in favor of this kind of thing. Freedom of speech ought (here I go; a terrible Kantian asserting an, "ought") to apply to political speech. Using FoS as a defense against aimlessly attacking others seems to undermine what is a basic expectation of civility (ie. not being made to feel unsafe) in advanced societies. I feel like there's a class of people that would gladly slaughter cows in front of Hindus and intimidate gay people under the guise of, "sociopolitical expression" but if we let this go on it could get to a point where, "talking" becomes, "taking deliberate actions to hurt or disenfranchise others" which is a slippery slope.

tl;dr-- Good for Japan. Politeness rules. It's people that have served in wars that understand this well.
This happened to me. Symptoms were noticeable when I was 5. First major depressive episode when I was 9. Was on stimulants from age 6 to 19. Didn't get properly diagnosed until I was 35.

Bipolar is often comorbid with ADHD. Stimulants can help, but can they also cause mania if used alone.
Fertilizer prices are soaring: that’s a chance to promote more sustainable ways

It's a mix of both. You need to have solid fundamentals and need to keep learning new ways to apply those fundamentals in the real world. There is absolutely effort involved in learning a new language, library, framework, platform no matter how good you otherwise are.
I'm not smart enough to articulate exactly what about it drives me nuts, but I can tell you that ten minutes with the classic Finder or NeXT's file manager makes the current incarnation of Finder feel like ****.
I wonder if lower sex drive is also caused by this sort of thing?

I'll admit, I don't think I've ever had a normal sex drive. My partner is very frustrated by this at times. Its not an attraction thing, I don't know the "why" per se here. I'd be interested to know if these things are correlated. I'd also be open to hearing about how to reverse it. (I'm 30 years old, supposedly I should be not this)

Speaking in aggregates, there have also been reports[0] of this happening across the world, including pre-pandemic[1]

~everyone has priority boarding on Ryanair - because it's both necessary and sufficient for being allowed carry-on (as opposed to 'personal item' like a laptop bag) baggage.

Is that really bad, though? To me that says passengers value predictability, and traditional carriers could be well served by increasing their block time to do so.
Can you not think of better ways to investigate this, beyond screenshots?
I guess this is the scary part. Everyone is potentially guilty ?
One of the things the article is actually measuring is that nobody hires based on deep knowledge on the profession.
When RSA Data Security was acquired in the mid `90's they laid off a bunch of people, presumably to sweeten the deal, and security was waiting outside in the morning to block people from coming into the building.

One of my former colleagues, who showed up to work early, inadvertently freaked out one of the executives when they saw them in the hall. Naturally they (not the executive) were soon escorted out of the building and told they had been laid off.

I started medication as an adult, lived in a home with two involved & present parents, never saw any doctor about ADHD until I was an adult, and was never an unhappy child.

Looking back, I clearly had ADHD, but since it's a condition that's unique and specific symptoms vary per person, I just happened to have mechanisms that worked and got lucky with how my brain patterns fit into school from Elementary - High School.

I had plenty of outdoor activity, and plenty of video games / computer use. Not that you mentioned it, but I also read fantasy/sci-fi books like they were daily papers, finished all of my incomplete homework in the morning while waiting for class to start, and was constantly multi-tasking in class (reading, doing homework for an upcoming class, or occasionally fidgeting).

My sample size is 1, but I have 4-5 diagnosed (either as kids or adults) close friends with similar stories.

Your comment takes some generally-well-known positive advice (exercise more, social interaction & supportive relationships are good, parenting kids is a big task that takes time & effort), and identifies some real problems we face today (social isolation, a lack of non-religious adult organizations, sedentary lifestyles) and uses it to disparage people with real, diagnosable conditions, and vilifying those who turn to medication for it.

I'm fine with how my life worked out, but I can't imagine being the kind of kid whose ADHD manifested in a different way that made school exponentially harder than it was for me, and being told that life-changing medicine, that let me participate in school or work just like everyone else does, is something I was given by mistake, or that I just had shit parents or should have played outside more.
This is like needing to ask to go to the toilet. It's degrading. Utterly disrespectful. You expect people to stick around?
From the readme I can't tell what powers the cited REST API functionality. From setup.py > mercury/requirements.txt it's DRF: Django REST Framework. https://github.com/mljar/mercury/blob/main/mercury/requireme...

E.g. BentoML is built on FastAPI which is async (sanic) and built by the DRF people, but FastAPI doesn't yet have the plethora of packages with tests/ supported by the Django community and DSF Django Software Foundation.
Self-replicating proteins can happen by a chance. And if the chance is too small for the life to happen accidentally in the known universe, then this is an argument that there are more than we can see or there were many universes in past.
Well, that's what you get for those prices right? If you want fancier service many airlines are happy to take your money, usually many times more.
On a related by side note, methylphenidate has been shown to have mild neuroprotective effects (unlike some amphetamine derivatives) [1]. Interestingly dopamine can cause/be neurotoxic (presumably at high levels for a long time). [2]

Canada is a regarded as a first world country.

No, OP is not talking about schools in "poor emerging economies." OP is talking about their experience doing a CS degree in Kenya. The COMMENTER (telomero22) is generalizing this to be a common experience in "3rd world countries."

I'm disagreeing with the commenter, telomero22, who believes OP's experience is due to studying CS in a "3rd world country." As others have confirmed in this thread, I'm suggesting that these sentiments are extremely common with CS grade in 1st world countries such as Canada.
Primary care in the US is heavily reliant on the most basic heuristics to meet patient throughput requirements. Many clinics are operating at 15 min/patient. And no one wants to spend their free time charting the visit and making necessary orders (pharmacy, radiology, other providers, etc) if it can be avoided - so they try to cram it into that 15 min if possible. So they simply don't have time to ask the necessary questions and perform research.
This happens for quite a few software engineering jobs too.

It's not the 6 minutes I heard lawyers do, but I definitely have been asked to track intervals of 15 minutes.
And then we stick them on antidepressants.

> Although only 8.6% of American males are on antidepressants at any given time, they seem much better represented as a percentage of mass shooters. Here are 39 mass shooters who were either on antidepressants at the time of their rampage, had abruptly quit taking their medication when they went on their spree, or had been prescribed antidepressants at some point in the past.

Michael Moore came to the same conclusion when researching for his movie, Bowling for Columbine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04UqzYOdGNs

These drugs can have serious side effects in x/1,000,000 people. What happens when you give them to tens of millions? You'll start to see those edge cases. Why didn't we have many of these mass shootings prior to 1990? When did we start mass dosing our kids? I think we have a lot more research to do, if anyone is actually willing, but you'd be going up against the big guys.
None of those really seem to make the UK worse than other countries.

Long story, short: I don't keep track of them.

I felt the need to protect myself from these sources of FOMO.

When it is necessary to set up a group chat, I like them short-lived. You organize an event with friends. The event is over. I delete the chat for all. Sometimes I lack the ability to do so. So I just leave, usually leaving a see-you-soon note. You know, ruthlessly prioritizing where I am spending my attention, while not acting like a d*ck.

I keep less than a handful of evergreen group chats with family and close friends. All of them with notifications on mute. No read, played, delivered ticks as well. If I need confirmation I'll just call them on the phone!

I leave notifications on for a few folks like my dad. He can get my attention anytime, anywhere. A good old phone call will definitely catch my attention too.

In return, I get to spend real good quality time, when they are not around, with my partner, family, close friends, and acquaintances. And hopefully they do too. :)
Ryanair's completely right, even with the tone. Meanwhile the Hungarian state media pretends being outraged and surprised(!) about Ryanair's decision of passing down taxes on consumers. This country's a joke.

The narrative broadcasted by local (state owned) media is still that Orban is protecting people from evil corporations making "extra profit" (that's how they keep calling it, no matter how stupid and meaningless it is) with these nonsense laws and he won't let companies getting away with passing down these new taxes on consumers. Obviously he cannot do anything about it, not even with Hungarian entities.
No because each site you go to will still track you from one visit to the next.
Being French I can tell you we really discourage it because we don’t have just one region but several! You have Corsica who wants to be independent, Alsace who wants to be independent or linked to Germany and sometimes Basque linked with the Basque region of Spain.

But all that was at its apex years ago now it’s more stable.

The EU has emissions caps. Each year fewer and fewer carbon emissions rights are auctioned out.

Maybe it doesn't yet reflect the externalities on the environment. But it eventually will. The 2030 target is set so that the EU becomes climate-neutral.

Until that time, I'll take the plane whenever I feel like it.
No, there's some incredibly broad brush strokes in the parent comment.

* "Every child I know diagnosed with ADHD had parents who didn't want to deal with them."

* "look at the people you know on medication (or ask), look at the troubled children, etc. I guarantee you'll see the same trend"

* "likely have parents who just don't want / know how to deal with issues"

There's only a single phrase "not always the case, but it's a trend" that frames it as a societal issue on average, but that doesn't counter the incredibly general conclusions made by the poster.

Ah yes, one more thing to have existential dread about.

Spend your time how you want. Time is never wasted. If you don't want to do something, and you have no good reason to do it (friends, family, etc.), don't.

As the article states, you only have so much time. Stop trying to figure out how to optimize it, and live it.

Personally I feel this is law is a great step forward to stop hate speech and other forms of severe harassment but the thought that if you happen to “rage” on someone mid game and receive jail time for that scares me.

This echos my experience to a T. I struggled as a single parent of a child and I hold myself responsible for them developing ADHD.

I did my best and most days I was too tired to give my child the attention and guidance they needed and he suffered needlessly. I resisted prescription medication for as long as possible until it became absolutely necessary. It works and there are side-effects, including symptoms that overlap with depression.

I am spending more time with my son (especially physical activities) and I hope someday he doesn't need methylphenidate.

I am likely still shadow-banned and nobody will see this message. I hope this message gets out and more single parents get the help they need.
He also knew if you quit,even if verbally told your out anyway, unemployment is basically impossible to get.

In my younger days I literally got unemployment 100% of the time I applied. In California unless you get arrested at work, your getting UI.
It's the condition that causes it. One of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD is anxiety over not being able to get things done. Your comment sounds dismissive of the real adverse impact of ADHD on one's inherent executive function; rather it's just someone being too "in their head" after they're giving a diagnosis.

> it becomes a medical condition you've been stuck with

90-ish% of people with ADHD respond well to stimulants, and have complete remission of symptoms. And for those who don't respond well to stimulants, we have bupropion, etc.

It's the one class of mental disorders where medication is very effective. For almost all with ADHD, it's not something you're "stuck" with.
> School is not that important.

I'd make a comment about how office work mirrors education, but if we do decide to treat school as unimportant, it's not like children would be able to get such jobs.

Instead they'd be more likely to get jobs doing manual labor, destroying their bodies before they've past their mid 30's.
It's surprising how seemingly difficult it is to build a good on-call scheduling system. Everything I tried so far (not naming the companies here) felt like the UX was the last thing on the developers' minds. Which is tolerable during business hours but really annoying at 2am.

Is there some hidden complexity or is it just a consequence of engineers building a product for other engineers? Also, any tips what worked for you?
