The biggest lie told in western society is that a woman can either have it all or that getting married/mom is being oppressed.

So the story is now for a woman to work hard, go to school, work / become a “boss bi*” and be independent. Don’t need a man! You go girl!

So this woman reaches a local maxima in career and by her 30s starts to question the narrative she’s bought into. Except Father Time has taken its toll, and what was once a healthy fruitful person is slowly turning into a dry fruit.

A successful career woman, will want to find a partner who’s her equal or better. So she’s now targeting someone who’s:

mid-30s+
* at same income or higher
* single

Except this dreamy man who fits the criteria is looking for :

* woman in 20s
* income ? Who cares?

So now our boss lady is left sad and mad at the false narrative she’s been fed her whole life. A couple more years pass and whatever fake dreams of “I heard IVF is really good now!” Are long gone.

Free lunches don’t exist.

Trying to get into web development as a career, which I really enjoy. I've been doing carpentry for my dad since high school, but I don't like it and I really don't want to be crawling around the floor all day or climbing ladders when I'm 40. I've been teaching myself in my spare time over the past few years and I recently started building a polished portfolio project that I hope potential employers will hire me on in lieu of prior work experience.
The best one I had just felt so easy when I met them. So simple, so easy. That’s the only way I can describe it :)

I use Comcast IPv6. I've had the same IP address IPv6/60 for about six years now.

One gotcha is that when I replace the firewall, I gotta make sure I keep the same ethernet MAC address to avoid re-IPing on the IPv4 side (the line in my FreeBSD firewall's config is "ifconfig_ix0="DHCP ether 00:0d:b9:48:92:48".

The other gotcha, for IPv6, is I have to migrate my client DHCP Unique Identifier (DUID) (`/var/db/dhcp6c_duid`) to my new firewall to retain my existing IPv6 subnets.
Yup! I'm aware, it's mostly an exercise I wrote after trying RTK.

It's a combination of two other Redux helpers I've been using for years before RTK existed. All mentioned in the "see also" section.

> Backend development hasn't tended to require this - you query information, perhaps you transform it, you return it.

Maybe the backend of a crud app is fundamentally simpler than a user-facing UI.
Yeah nah.

I recall reading a story about an experiment in South Korea where they pitted gamers against military pilots in Falcon 4 or 5 flight sim.

The gamers won the first round or two, mainly because the mil pilots were still getting used to the interface and controls and flight model of the sim (which differs enough from real life to make a difference).

But once they had that sorted, they started employing military tactics of coordination and flight ops and totally dominated the gamers after that. It wasn't even close.

The gamers had no chance after that, and the tactics used by the mil pilots were probably classified at the time.

I wish I could find the link, if anyone knows about it please post it.
For what it's worth, none of the reasons listed for switching away from Github in that SFC article are persuasive to me, but that's my choice. Kyoto project is free to choose what's best for them.
People are always more comfortable volunteering for hardship than having it thrust upon them. Course, to the employees I’m not sure it’s all that much different. Some suit shut it down. A different one than the one who promised us he wouldn’t, but what comfort is that?
Oh, that is an interesting one I hadn't thought about. Since I expected IPv6 to just never change.

I have all my IPs configured static internally, and have DNS going over to AdGuard Home. Even have the firewall set up to force all DNS traffic over there. Doesn't work so well if all my IPs change because Verizon had an outage.

Amazing shift in new generation is that they are completely oblivious to movie and TV stars. Their world revolves all around set of YouTubers. Many of these YouTubers are exclusively just streaming their game plays. This is literally the most important entertainment medium for the new generation, and as usual, the old generation just doesn’t understand this transition.
This but with a cycle of on again off again hiring freezes and the inability to fill open positions from employees that became disgruntled and left.
Beachy Amish, it's fine.
Frankly I feel state management is a difficult task on desktop apps as well, to the point that tracking spaghetti-shaped causation and control flow is beyond my mental abilities. Qt itself as well as many apps are rife with redundantly calculating state or redrawing GUIs when changing the same value multiple times, or changing two values which both affect an outcome (my StateTransaction pattern mostly alleviates this issue with a set of dirty bitflags and recomputing all state dependent on those bits, though the reactivity system is currently hard-coded and statically dispatched, and generalizes poorly to open-ended state or managing the local state of many dialogs of the same type). And one of the craziest errors caused by witnessing malformed intermediate values is https://github.com/Dn-Programming-Core-Management/Dn-FamiTra..., where a sloppily-written "load document" function redrew the UI in the middle of mutating document state, causing the GUI to crash after observing a broken invariant.

It saddens me that so much of research in developing better state management techniques is in such a bloated and dependency-laden environment as JavaScript on the web. I like QML's reactivity system, but its evaluation engine is JS-based, dynamically-typed, and dynamically-scoped, and the UI engine itself is a buggy mess. And GTK4's list APIs promise to be better than the clusterfuck of Qt Widgets/Quick's QAbstractItem{Model/View} system (which abstracts poorly over list/column/tree collections, and widget-internal, cross-widget, and cross-application drag-and-drop), but I haven't tried that either.
I think what they are trying to say is that getting pregnant is easy. You could do it if you want to. It’s the finding a mate first that is making it difficult.
Even if you’re super charitable and assume they live in a climate that is warm/tropical all year round, and they can get the basics at Kmart or thrift stores (not knocking Kmart, I will buy certain items from there if I think the quality is sufficiently good) this is hard to compute.
He did personally reply on the thread above - which was really gracious of him.
Buzzard as far as I'm aware is interested in finding mistakes in mathematical work by "real" (i.e. in his own words people doing topology rather than category theory) mathematicians, so that position makes sense.

So what?
Zelda is a system seller.
When Wind Waker came out, people hated it, sales for twilight princess show people at the time DID want a realistic zelda.
Even Miyamoto didn't care for the Wind Waker Style.

It looks like people are trying to say the Zelda Effect is something it's not.

Wind Waker isn't more beloved then any other. In fact at best, it's par for the course. However, most fans prefer a more realistic Link, it's clear from looking at extended media like fanart, smash brother( toon link is a different character), even many Nintendo developers say the same in interviews.

The Zelda Effect isnt a thing.
> Yeah, he brought up religion for no particular reason.

Saying that someone brought something up "for no particular reason" is not respectful. Just because you don't understand the reason is not a valid justification for being dismissive.

The older I get the less time I want to be in front of a computer. I would prefer my photography software to do the workflow I want it to do, not what someone else thinks I should do -- regardless of whether it's free or not.

Besides, the more I'm behind a camera in nature, the better I usually feel. The more I'm behind a screen, the worse.
I use both. Headphones at night (neighbors) or to focus (get in the zone).

I screwed around with headphones (to find the right ones) I prefer the v-profile ones.

If I really need to focus, silence.

But you are not alone -- large chunks of people use confirmation bias to judge people based on a small number of cherry-picked words.
I think it would be a giant embarrassment if MS were to fuck up Github. GH is too big to fail (also, LinkedIn, Blizzard (soon)) etc.
You’re the best. It is a lot of ups and downs and when people like you are kind and encouraging it makes a big difference.

One thing I am grateful for is that as a teacher and an edtech entrepreneur I am fortunate to spend a good deal of time with children of my friends and customers and I love them all the more not having kids of my own. I’ve been fortunate to make some very deep friendships with young children , especially during this pandemic and I think that because I didn’t have my own it gave me more time and space to really grow close. So there’s always a silver lining. Plus, I don’t have to change diapers or defuse tantrums which is great :)
Only if there is no competition and no free market[1]

If you are locked into "choosing" the one in-network service provider in your area who can price very differently for your insurance than for others yes there is room for perverse incentives as is today.

If you and I can choose freely from any service provider in the area and everyone has to price the same way( i.e. not change basis who the customer is) then they will have to be competitive, people are very price sensitive and will tend to move towards the ones which are cheaper.

See how the airlines all slowly have moved towards the low-cost models: more economy/less first class even if they were full service. Sure you will have some Frontier/Spirit type organizations eventually but if they get the job done(Moving you from A to B) at lowest price then that is all that matters[3], similarly if a hospital is no-frills and gets your cataract operation[2] or do regular checkup faster and cheaper they will do so and plenty of people benefit from that.

Force hospitals to compete, not lock into monopolistic preferential contracts with some buyers and force users to now be exhorted crazy premiums to avoid the possibility being charged even more. Price regulation does not mean government fixes the prices, it should just mean that service provider have to charge the same for anyone without knowing their source (which insurance plan/company or self-funded and income level).

----

[1] While there are some cases where two hospitals / doctors are not equivalent and cannot be compared, vast majority of care is fungible, i.e. you can replace one hospital / doctor with another without material impact to outcome of care.

[2] I have seen this myself work https://www.gatesfoundation.org/Ideas/Speeches/2008/05/willi... it is like assembly line, brutal efficiency.

[3] This assumes robust regulation, which we already have in healthcare, probably more so than required, there is no systemic regulatory oversight problems in the industry today.
Dealing with exactly 1 & 2 right now. #3 doesn't really apply in my case because 80% of the devs are budget staffing agency hires. But on that note, I'd add a 4th point:

Management panics when they realize they won't make the self imposed deadline and start throwing bodies at the problem.

In our case, we went from 2 teams to 8 over night. The very few engineers who actually were capable of shipping features became swamped dealing with the fallout.

To make things worse, they keep scheduling multi-day, 8hr "planning" sessions that all key devs must attend so they can better "understand the remaining work"
For this to succeed there needs to be an online verification systems with some certified professionals to certify title, certify the structure, take a number of pix of all aspects of the structure, feet on ground etc.and any liens/mortgages etc.
A lot of the existing legal base can be involved, title searchers, law firms etc.
Until this matures this ecosystem will be full of scammers with fake creds.
So this feet-on-ground verification system is needed - or this will happen....

Honest question, does anyone have some examples of an acquired company thriving post-acquisition? It seems like they just all burn out or stop doing cool things. I’m thinking of examples like Nest and Tumblr, but I haven’t noticed any where I think “wow, they’re really doing amazing things now after being acquired”. I get that many are acqui-hires or done for the IP portfolio, or as favors to founders or other investors to make a few people a whole lot of money.
Dated women who were way more successful than me. Wasn't a problem at all. It'd only be a problem if a guy has no confidence.

Personally, I think you just need to give up (that's what I did) and just learn to be okay with the things the way they are now. It either will happen or not. You just cannot force these things.

Also (probably not such a great advice) but maybe you just need to go to a bar and meet a guy who is a little bit of an asshole..?

They always actively get JAPANESE feedback for games like Zelda and Pokemon.
As western and eastern tastes diverge, you'll see bigger issues.

It's one of the reasons Square Enix just sold all their western studios.
I'm a sometimes real-time programmer (not games - sound, video and cable/satellite crypto) - malloc(), even in linux is an anathema to real-time coding (because deep in the malloc libraries are mutexes that can cause priority inversion) - if you want to avoid the sorts of heisenbugs that occur once a week and cause weird sound burbles you don't malloc on the fly - instead you pre-alloc from non-real-time code and run your own buffer lists
Here’s what you need to do: marry the first hugg-integrity reasonably functional adult who is willing to marry you. Boom, solved like they did in the old days.
I suppose traditionally this is what one learns during the fiancée stage of the relationship and given your accelerated timeline that’s definitely going to be a challenge. Unfortunately the only way I know to tell is to actually go through a couple of tough spots and see what happens and forcing it might not work. On the plus side, if you do find a test that is predictive and can also be used early in a relationship, you’ll be a best selling author of relationship books for sure.
I've recommended Inoreader multiple times on this site before, but unfortunately the service has gotten worse over the years by a couple of metrics.

Most of the worthwhile features are now gated behind the most expensive plan, rather than being properly staggered. I subscribe to so few feeds I could literally use the free (ad-supported) plan, and I use none of the advanced features at all except filters. If you want to filter a single feed, you have to buy the most expensive plan they sell. That's crazy!

Regardless, I have happily supported them for years. I'm not the sort of user that others are complaining about in this thread that wants everything for free. That's about to change too though. Since the site began, the plan I've been on has cost $30 a year, which is acceptable for the value I get out of it. I was able to extend the plan for multiple years at $18/yr thanks to Black Friday and Christmas sales. Now, however, they're changing things around, and want me to resubscribe to keep the features I use at $90/yr (or $120 if you pay monthly). I'm not a software engineer making six figures. I can't afford to throw $100 at every service I use like this. A $30 -> $90 price increase is just enormous.

Again, I want to pay for the features I use, but because they've failed to provide any kind of pricing ramp, they'll soon get nothing from me.
You can provide a service - as a company - to a large corporation and get paid for the scale though. An employee solves the problem at scale and gets a fraction of the value
Is that not just a caramel macchiato?
It is not only possible as the sibling post compares, they already do it today.

If your claim is hospital management and administration does not have a clue like a early stage start-up founder on VC money what their per-unit costs are, I am not sure you have negotiated a bill between insurance, hospital and you in the U.S, it is laughably false.

Even doctors are acutely aware of how tagging their services under which SKU is covered how by which insurance and by how much, and also how much they make from the hospital for that as well.
Yeah, so many.

YouTube, Instagram, Github, Android, Slack, Heroku (until recently), etc. And those are just the ones that were left to their own devices.

There's also a ton that have lost their brand, but melted into the parent company. It's not obvious from the outside, but the tech (and team behind it) goes on to become a vital feature. Like, look at any acquisition by Stripe.

Lastly, companies sell because things are going really well or they're going really badly. This company was closer to the latter, and that has a much smaller success rate – but teams often get continued employment, some get promotions, people make money, etc.
Top gun is probably the best example.

Video games are expensive too make.
Many triple A games cost more than movies. Comparing them to movies is an extremely fair comparison.
Couldn't agree more with the absurdity that Friedman gets blamed for RBC and RE. Hell that leads directly to the idea that monetary policy can't ever accomplish anything.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policy-ineffectiveness_proposi...

It should be pretty clear this is the exact opposite of monetarism.

It would clear up a lot of confusion if economic history textbooks simply describe Friedman's monetarism as a species of Keynesianism, certainly it would be less wrong than what everyone currently thinks.

Here's a small set of technologies that benefit the end user that are powered by data aggregation:

Gmail spam filtering, Maps business data, Maps traffic signal, Google voice recognition (basically the entire technology stack, which was piggybacked off of analysis of samples from Google 411 and continues to be refined by analysis of audio snippets from corner cases where the technology fails), search (obviously, it is just a scraper pointed at the web), Google voice spam number identification (crowdsourced signal), Google Translate, Google image search, and of course the ad products that pay for a not-insignificant portion of the sites available on the internet, without which a significant chunk of the internet would go dark unless it was beholden to other monied interests.

Big Data from large user numbers enabled the creation of technologies that had not been possible before at the level of quality that they are now possible. I don't think a lot of people fully wrap their heads around how big data analysis enabled the internet that we know today.
Police can be strongly enforcing some laws and regulations, while not enforcing others.

Typically you see under-enforcement of crimes that have direct victims and real impact on people's lives - property and violent crime (say, a stolen car, or stolen bike that leaves the victim unable to get to work/child care, or the victim injured and unable to work, if only temporarily) that directly impact a person's life...and over-enforcement of general "orderly society" crimes and regulations that don't have a direct victim or impact one people's lives.

For example, you'll see cops take 20 minutes to respond to calls of domestic violence, which might come down to being short staffed.

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?

That's the data, not my opinion.
I agree with you that the state has just as much right to vet teachers as it does gun permit seekers.

It's a massive difference of scale, however. There have been 135 teachers convicted of sexual misconduct in 2022 to date.

https://go2tutors.com/135-teachers-child-sex-crimes/

There have been 246 mass shootings in 2022 to date. More than 18,000 people have died from gun violence. To date. That data is from a month ago. Of course you might say that few of those were directly caused be people with concealed carry permits, but how many of them involved guns stolen from people who legally purchased?

https://www.insider.com/number-of-mass-shootingsin-america-t...

Your entire comparison is facetious. You seek to draw a parallel between educators teaching things you don't like and the deaths of eighteen thousand people. It's dishonest and unworthy of further debate.
But the ability to BS your way through something and pull the wool over someone’s eyes is an important skill in Corporate America.
