It's something that comes with experience.

If you've had projects like this in the past you'll recognise the early warning signs (eg. hard deadline before (even rough draft) requirements are available).

You'll know it's time to start the job hunt early because there's no way it can work unless you work yourself 24/7 into the ground.

It's not about accepting defeat, it's about accepting you are worthy of something better.
What does the account statement say?
> "The book implies human brains are able to communicate some degree of information through what today I suspect we refer to as quantum entanglement. Humans, as a species, potentially primarily communicated this way

Quantum Entanglement can't be used for communication: https://www.quora.com/Why-cant-quantum-entanglement-be-used-...

Not sure it's needed as an explanation either; humans have good vision and mirror neurons and imaginations, such that we can read other people's expressions, imagine what they're feeling inside, empathically feel the same, without any need for telepathy - although it basically is telepathy in a sense; silent communication over long distance carried at light speed. Just not words.

> "even citing a scientific study claiming to conclusively demonstrate telepathy."

James Randi's million dollar prize for demonstrating paranormal ability was never won. He did describe paranormal researchers being fooled and completely convinced by such tricks as a thin thread, or blowing on card to move them, later admitted by the test subjects.

> "commonly represented by the feeling one gets if another person is watching them."

I have a copy of Rupert Sheldrake's "The sense of being stared at", maybe I should get round to reading it one day.

> "Im not implying these these are true, but it is interesting to see how they formed several arguments describing events today we have a more sophisticated understanding of."

It's easy to make an encryption system that you yourself cannot break, but can easily be broken. It's easy to convince yourself that your view on a math problem is right, but a proof has to be not just convincing but irrefutable. Woo and the paranormal and medical quackery and so on have so many good stories, amazing ideas and awe-inspiring consequences, and great story tellers, they are rather similar, I think, and that science generally is the process of weeding out the irrefutable unarguable facts from the enticing stories.

If you want to do something meaningful you have to pay for it in lost income. The same is true for any other kind of work. I don't see why engineering should be any different. But even the tier 1 jobs mentioned here pay enough for an average lifestyle + some buffer. So if you don't care for a luxurious lifestyle, you can devote a lot of time or money to what you care for.
I think it's just healthier. You go out and have a good time. Getting a date is just icing on the cake. You do online dating, anything short of success is a failure.

Plus you get to vet people before creating any expectations of an outcome.
Don’t be discouraged. You appear to be a very goal-oriented systematic person, maybe lacking some reflective skills but what do I know. But life is not systemic and goal-oriented. You kinda can’t force it. The differential equations underlying the complex tangle of feedback that we call society care little about what you want or need. So maybe just let things happen and try to enjoy whatever is happening? I’m not saying letting yourself go or giving up but rather accepting the world does not follow a checklist and neither does it do what you want. Besides, seeing someone, by your description, perfect, with a laser-like focus on something would be quite terrifying. I’m not perfect, I don’t have that sort of focus and I would not even know how to start with trying to keep up with you.
I had a conversation about this rthe day before yesterday with someone providing reproductive health services in Tennessee.
kickstarters do not provide profits. i personally went through a succesful one and it was the same situation.

i also think it’s lame the article does not mention the marketing cost to reach the 188k funding.

also, building realtime synth / audio apps especially for professional use is a highly specialized job you should not outsource to generic mobile devs. you need to hire people who have been doing that for many years.

android has many audio stack related problems and those still haven’t been solved. someone who specializes in audio apps already knows that.

i get that the author is frustrated but the real reason people probably didn’t buy the product is that it was not good enough and not a “need”. to really want something it has to be crazy good. i’m surprised they got a deal from apple to distribute a poorly executed product.

it sounds like sphero and other parties were wowed by the idea and acquired or partnered with a startup with a prototype that was still far from a real product. i don’t think it’s fair to blame sphero in this case…

Good Practical Advice.
I’ve heard a similar story in 2018 and I have done this myself. The article was promptly deleted but it sparked an wonderful discussion here on HN[1]. In the article, the original poster was let go in his trial period after he 1) started fixing a lot of things that he considered badly implemented and 2) he was very loud about it - It’s been 4 years so this is a little foggy, but I think he did a lot of work on the CI/DevOps side and also pushing for a different language, which he considered to be superior.

What reminded me of that discussion was that he was describing the exact same “symptoms”: code reviews that were never done and colleagues starting to openly resent him.

Both things are true: people wanted more interactive apps; at the same time, most engineers don’t work on those kinds of apps.

A frequent analogy: React raises the ceiling for the kinds of experiences you can build in a browser.

But not every app hits that ceiling. If CRUD works for you, do that. The simpler the better.
11 digits of PI will let you hit the electron of a hydrogen atom or land on Pluto.
I’m male. And I can’t imagine I would ask about it on a first date.

But if you’re up on fertility issues, it’s a legitimate concern. As people age, the rate of fertility success inevitably goes down, and the risks (e.g. Down syndrome) go up pretty dramatically.

Having frozen eggs greatly reduces those risks, and for an older man that wants kids, a potential wife with frozen eggs could mean a lot.
I think the real lesson is only sell what you’re willing to live without. Even if the initial contract says you get to stay involved, I wouldn’t take that unless I had to.

If the money isn’t enough to make me walk away from a project, then the money isn’t enough for you to bug the project.
You might be referring to David Mackay's excellent 2008 book Sustainable Energy – Without the Hot Air - https://www.withouthotair.com

In the book he tries to determine if renewables could support UK's energy needs. He estimated the UK consumes about 195 kWh per day per person (food, transporation, heating, miltary defense, ...)

If the UK massively invested in all the renewable options it stacked up to 180 kWh per day per person (obviously he provided lots of caveats).

His assumption on Solar PV was covering 5% of the UK land with 10% efficient PVs (about 200m2 per person). He estimated that could contribute 50kWh/d/p.

In the 14 years since the book was published it seems like Solar PV efficiency is now commonly 17-19%. So might only need to use 2.5% of the land.
This got me thinking, whats the next theory that is guaranteed the Nobel prize?
> I don’t think there’s any shame in being clear I want a family soon

This ruins a lot of my friends dating scenarios. I think you maybe should rethink that.

In my humble opinion, the laws of supply and demand are stacked against you. Most single men in there 40's expect that there partners are wanting to have kids and feel pressured by hearing it on a date.

You also could miss high quality options who say they're " not ready" to have kids, when they mean that they haven't met the right person and/or haven't arrived at their desired financial level. If men think they can't provide, they are going to say "no to kids". I had a friend that was 38 and said he didn't want kids, then he was given a $70k increase ( from $110,000 to $180,000) 3 months later and then he switched to ready to have kid and was married within 6 months.
Men need to feel they have a financial security or they will pass.

I think the right answer to my friend circle would be " I do really want to have kids someday with the right person, but not in the next 2 years." Then you can re-evaluate a month later if things are going good and say " we have a great connection, I really would be open to having kids much sooner. Thoughts?"

I know a few guys this worked on. They just were hearing kids immediately as a red flag, when really they were more inline then what either party truly understood at the time.

Think on it. Hope this helps.

Maybe. But the GP above has a point. What does a role have to do with this particular resource. You can’t block role deletion because they are associated with resource, that would be a functional nightmare. You also can’t just cascade delete all resources associated to a role. The only real thing that can be done is assign the resource to some super user with all the rights so they can delete it instead.
We have a digit extraction algorithm to calculate any digit of pi. You need to specify which digit since there isn't a last digit.
In your contrived example, you only know the right answer after considering all four possible combinations. That is a combinatorial explosion when there are only two choices to make.
It’s not a feature but how do you solve this? You can’t block role deletion because it has a resource associated with it, that would be a functional nightmare.

You've got to wonder why the focus isn't on providing a seamless general Rest API experience for all services rather then having specific Swift extensions for each service.
My own experience is that I met my now wife right after I ditched dating apps and decided to enjoy life with friends instead. Or to be precise, I met her before that, but didn't care to speak and socialize with her.

Dating apps never worked to me because I was inexperienced and wanted to take my time to get to know the person (I mean like meeting a few times over a few weeks or months), but on dating apps there is this commonly shared nonsense that the first date and impression must all be perfect, or it's doomed.

My advice would be to make friends, spend as much time as you can outside (or meetups when friends are not an option) meeting random people in various contexts.

Also a couple of considerations:

- Love at first sight is a trap. It is more likely that 'the one' will seem 'meh' to you at first. You need to meet people multiple times to get to know them.

- Don't only meet people that are potential dating material. It is very important not to have this mindset, because it affects your behavior and image negatively. Socializing with people of both genders and all ages is also a very important part of that.
I’m sorry don’t even know what the question means in this context or what pace is.
DNS is generally looked up once, on ruleset initalization, there is no way a firewall is going to look up DNS every single time a rule is referenced. Since DNS here is changing constantly, this is unhelpful.
Wait that actually sounds awesome. What we’re your issues with this practice? A 3 day code freeze while everyone works to solidify a “meeting of the minds” followed by 87 days of heads down progress sounds like fucking heaven to me compared to the weekly planning meetings on top of daily stands up I live with now.

Sadly in the USA, any hint of allowing “choice” with public schooling has you labeled a heretic by one side of our two-party system. While leftists despise monopolies in all business, they worship monopolies when it comes to schooling, no matter how expensive and how terrible the outcomes.
Yep. I use the spacebar a lot for that ; )
> But isn't it strange that every patrol cop in the neighborhood never fails to make sure to check that the corner sausage cart vendor and ice cream van have every single permit in order? And how there's always time to stop someone for a non-functional tail light? And to stop random dudes for pat-downs?

it's not that surprising. I'm sure malice is part of the explanation, but it's also just easier. the ice cream van either has the permit or they don't. they're not going to run away. in 30 minutes, the officer gets to add another citation to the monthly tally. it's a nearly certain outcome that takes little effort.

the stolen car or bike is already gone by the time the officer shows up to the scene (if they bother to). it takes an indeterminate amount of time to track down the stolen item, and even more to gather enough evidence to actually charge someone. it sucks, but most people who are evaluated on metrics try to avoid spending a lot of time on tasks where they might come out empty-handed. it's a hard organizational problem to incentivize this sort of work.

It is a feature and a good one (with a caveat though).

terraform is best used on a per solution basis: one solution, one dedicated terraform project that will manage its state and its own state only. Multiple projects and people work carry out work in the same cloud account in parallel, and their terraform projects are not meant to interfere with each other. It works best for solutions that make use of fully managed cloud services.

Then there are also platform or connectivity level cloud resources (e.g. Transit Gateway and subnets that are mapped into the internal organisational network address space in AWS) that a random terraform project ought not to manage.

Lastly, if there is an actual need, a resource that terraform does not know about can be manually imported into the terraform's project state. This works best when infrastructure level resources were manually created a while ago and now have to be refactored into and managed by a terraform project. It is a tedious process that has to proceed with a lot of caution.

The caveat. It gets somewhat tricky when a non-serverless cloud resource requires an explicit subnet range allocation within an existing and managed CIDR or similar. There is no one solution to fit it all but containing such projects to their own dedicated VPC and setting up the VPC peering between a solution specific VPC and the main account VPC usually works satisfactory. That is, for example, how Kafka (AWS MSK) can be introduced into an AWS account without affecting existing CIDR mapping.
We do need to do a hard thing, we need to reconfigure our world to cope with the end of the one time greatest economic bonanza of all times... the fossil fuel pulse.

We've tapped most of the easy to reach oil in the world. Now we're fracking to get at things, and those wells have decay rates of 40%/year, instead of per decade. If we stopped all drilling, we'd have 40% less oil next year from all the new wells. (Or so I've been lead to believe. It's my opinion that we've got 20 years, at the outside to complete this project)

Our civilization depends on a resource in decline. All the people at the top have zero clue as to how to actively manage the situation. We, the people, have to start from the grass roots and figure this out ourselves.

So yes, I agree, We have to do the hard thing.

No, you don't need to do it with such a slow algorithm like that. There are only 26 possibilities for a given square. All you need is to track the set of possible letters for each square in each direction (52 bits of information—you can even literally fit it into a 64-bit integer). Then for each guess going across, cross it off your list if its corresponding letter isn't in the set of letters going down, and vice-versa. It should be pretty darn quick without any exponential growth.

Sounds corny, but it'll hit you when you're not looking for it/when you least expect it. It's been the case for me (not married... yet?) and others I know who are in great relationships.

Personally, I wanted to be a bachelor/single a bit longer, having left a long relationship not even a year prior. Ended up meeting the most amazing, beautiful, intelligent, wonderful, loving, compatible person I could ever wish to be with, all by chance/when I wasnt looking. It's been 5 and a half years and meeting her is a top highlight in my life.

Relationships I've had that resulted from actively trying to find someone more times than not left me miserable.

Never chase and don't set expectations. Again, it's corny, but who you need will hit you at the right time when you're not wanting. In the meantime, do you, let go of controlling the situation, and just let things just happen.
I've purchased 3 homes online and site unseen.

The first for 35k in 2011 in Oregon. It was worth exactly that and not a penny more. Land+metal roof+cedar siding......but the rest needs gutted and replaced. That was ok with me, I enjoy rehab projects, but fiscally it was a poorer choice than buying a finished home at $150 with a mortgage and renting it out immediately. The take away is, if the pictures suggest it needs gutting, don't underestimate them and don't overbid in the heat of auction battle. Also learned, when buying at auction you typically have 5 day inspection period to examine the property, but they will try to talk you out of doing so saying 'the bank hasn't yet accepted your offer' (which they technically hadn't, they can decline final auction price. All bullshit though, go check the property.

2nd house was less dicy. It was a proper house with a $360k price in Vegas being sold on the open market (not auction). I was very familiar with the area after visiting and looking at properties in person. The inspector was my final eyes and ears. His summary impression was 'its a fine sturdy house', and I got exactly what I paid for. When you call around for inspectors, try to guage if you find them friendly and straight u with you, they will give you the best advice from anyone.

Third property was last week for 110k. It's underpriced for the area, but the work required inside reflects that. I had pretty much decided I wanted the property before seeing it, but since it was only 2 hours away I checked it out in person and made the same final decision. The neighborhood is poor and 50/50 unkept houses, most folks wouldn't want to live there, on the other hand it didn't seem a 'bad' neighborhood with crazy crime. The takeaway here is not to only examine the property itself,but be sure to zoom out and walk around the neighborhood in Google maps too. What kind of cars do neighbors drive? How do they upkeep their property? What's street parking like?

Imho, it's ok to buy online sight unseen, just make sure to know your outs and don't be shy to take full advantage of them. If you can, see it in person after bidding, but before the final final decision.

Good luck!
We have done something similar: a sandbox account that developers and solution designers can play around in, experiment and manually create resource in as long as resources are properly tagged (we have devised internal naming conventions). They are also responsible for the clean-up; a resource that is not properly tagged is purged automatically after a 8 hour time lapse.

Other accounts and environments (including dev) require everyone to follow a streamlined process: read only access to the account, a fully documented solution design and a corresponding terraform project in GitHub. terraform project checkin triggers a pull request for a review and an approval. Once the pull request has been scrutinised and merged, CI/CD runs terraform to provision resources in the account.
