Oh, they realize it - which is why the managers and execs whose ongoing career trajectories require managing larger and larger orgs spend so much time coming up with more work!

Most line engineers often realize it too pretty quickly, which is why we end up with so many new frameworks every time there is a huge boom cycle.
Feel free to read Stratfor's site (I named an extension that allows full free access) or George Friedman's "The Next 100 Years" book.

Stratfor employs many ex-US-intelligence-agency people who use the same geopolitical analysis methods for a corporate audience (though without classified data) and their views are a close approximation of the thinking of the US's intelligence community; in that sense, they are significant.
I assumed Prime Video is just a loss leader to get you subscribing. Isn't the real benefit to them that they've convinced you to pay for next day delivery in advance, so you are discouraged from shopping around and end up spending way more at Amazon?
> "Stocks go down" isn't a redemption of the crypto narrative.

It’s not, but “reality catching up on speculative, excessive growth” isn’t purely a cryptocurrency thing; they’re just so much a symptom of everyone wanting in on that tech stonks that only VCs could afford.

It’s funny how “the Uber of X” was an admirable description, considering that whole economic model is being questioned right now. Perhaps it just wasn’t the case that Uber was the Uber of Uber.
Yes same here. For me Sarno gave me my life back and reading my comments it seems it has helped a lot other people here too, so I always chime in too. Here is my comment from 4 years ago and that was the the start of the end of my struggle with pain. (1)

Nowadays I've started doing the wim hof method and it's unbelievable my body can endure 7°c bath and I don't feel that cold or fall sick taking an ice cold baths everyday even during winters. The reason I'm mentioning this is because it really seems our minds are much more capable of things for which common sense goes against.

I think like the way germs were discovered which changed our understanding of medicine, within a few decades it will also become a norm to assess patient's mental condition before checking for physical and hopefully using the mind to cure a lot of disease. I feel like a hippie saying these things but after sarno and wim hof I've become more open to the power of human mind.

These CHM oral histories are so great – I love the ones about the 6800 and 68000, because Motorola didn’t seem to keep historical records in the same way as Intel and others did, so this is the only way some of these stories have ever been told.
It's one thing to say, you're struggling, but you think you can make it without layoffs. Or another thing to say your financial models say for the next 90 days you're okay at the moment. Or you're trying to shift money around, or trying to increase revenue, or to say you're looking for funding...

If people invest their lives in your company (relocating, working overtime, etc), they deserve the honest truth about what's happening. Particularly in a world where there's a high demand for tech workers.
Yeah I've experienced this when I was young.
My mom was running a daycare at home, and I would sometimes try to help at lunchtime.

Me: <Kid's name>, do you want apple juice? No. Do you want orange juice? No. Do you want grape juice? No. Well that's all we've got, which one do you prefer? None, I want something else. ... and obviously whatever we had would not do.
My mom who saw I was not efficient enough: Okay <kid's name> do you want apple or orange juice? Orange.

My first reaction was "but I already suggested it", but I got better after a while.
Well I think one benefit of a scheduled send is the ability to cancel or edit after hitting the send button. So I'm not sure if I'd appreciate setting it up like you say here.
Long ago, I had a more than passing interest in the idea of ultraconductors, which were purported to be a string of "polarons" grown in tricky conditions on the surface of polymers, using ozone, UV, and a strong applied electric field. The company died in 2008... due to either it being a grift, or just the crash.

*Supposedly, they possessed conductivity about 10^6 times that of silver at room temperature, along the axis of growth.

Is there any way I could use this to see if there was merit in that idea?
I would guess that this is just because young people have more energy and healing ability, both of which deteriorate with age

> disability insurance policy

You know people on group disability policies can have to wait up to 18 months for disability while their disability insurance unreasonably denies their claim, and that the laws governing these plans don't actually allow you to collect damages but only the disability benefits you were actually owed in the first place?

It might be better than SSDI, but not much.
Humans are the same, still not sure why total safety statistics wouldn’t matter…
I have to pass on this one. The first thing it makes you do is sign up for an account. I have better things to do then another sign up. I’m willing to pay a fair price it pass when I need to sign up and agree to their terms of service.
> UI through composition, building UI through assembling components from other components, has done away with those issues.

it should be noted, you can do this just fine in cocoa/uikit with delegation/message forwarding etc. but most people dont know about that ime

lots of subclassing and overriding is much harder to avoid with view controllers but view-level subclassing is usually an anti-pattern (if i got a dollar for every time i found a "RedButton" class id be a millionaire) but like most things people aren't either experienced or educated enough in these frameworks

> However, they constantly require refactoring as teams grow and systems become more complex. This leads to overly complex UI code over time that become brittle.

i think this becomes true with any system, but subclass-heavy code makes it definitely harder imo

> ...is frustrating that I agree is a trade off, but refactors become simple find and replace to point to new components instead of having to rewrite entire chunks of previously working code.

if done well it is easier in swiftui for sure, but the way i see people write "in the real world" swiftui is used in a much more monolithic fashion and hard to pull-apart... (personally i love swiftui) but i think real-world usage will still he mudballs in a large portion of codebases (there is no silver bullet)
i can understand not wanting power to be centralized in the hands of a faraway federal govt. but i dont understand the fetish of states rights. why not city rights or county rights. or heaven forbid maybe even individual rights
This story omits any mention of the i860's predecessor, the i960:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_i960

The i960 was a commercial success, the i860 was not.

I used an i960 in my first startup back in the early 90s:

https://flownet.com/gat/fnlj.html

It was an absolute joy to work with, one of the most beautiful processor architectures I've ever seen.

The i960 didn't quite have a million transistors, but it came close, with the high-powered CF version having 900,000.

https://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/optics/olympusmicd/galleries/ch...

To put these numbers in perspective, an M1 pro has 33 billion (with a b) transistors, so the equivalent of 33,000 i960s.
> The idea of UI being a pure function of the model seems so obviously incorrect, and leads to such a plethora of problems, that it is a bit puzzling how one could come up with it in the first place, and certainly how one would stick with it in face of the avalanche of problems that just keeps coming.

Richard Harris takes the same tact. He describes “UIs as a function of state” as an ideology: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1PUvpXMBEDS45rd0wHu6t...

I think junior developers tend to invest in a single web framework and let their identities get tied up in the architecture of that framework.

"I believe that everybody has the capacity to be creative"

Maybe, but I am almost certain that this capacity is highly unequal. Some people are like walking geysers of inspiration and you cannot suppress them culturally anymore than you can prevent the July sun from baking the sand. Others are decidedly low-voltage even when it comes to private creativity (such as decorating your own home).

It is the same with muscles. We all have some muscles, but only some people do really have the potential to be good athletes.
A typewriter is effectively a keyboard hardwired directly to a printer.
Do not disturb is terrible if you are a part-time caregiver or on pager duty. No phone OS gives enough control over its settings and bad news often arrive from unknown numbers, i.e the hospital, 3rd party robot call service, friend of a friend etc. Speaking from experience.
If it makes you feel any better, group disability insurance is notorious for being some of the scummiest insurers out there. Their whole thing is deny deny deny. You may have to file a federal lawsuit to try to just get the benefits you were owed and in the end with group disability and it could take just as long as SSDI.
That's my point; Apple's RAM soldered on package is the same as PC laptops with RAM soldered on the motherboard. Apple has no advantage from that.
Is this a permanent disability or something that can be recovered with a lifestyle change?
I can't follow your argument. You seem to imply at the same time that my numbers are too small and too high. Which one is it?

In any case, here's a separate reference to corroborate my numbers. It's a study by EIA ( US Energy Information Administration) published in 2020 [1] where they compare the capital costs of different power plants.

One such power plant they consider is a nuclear plant with 2 AP1000 reactors with a total capacity of 2.2 GW. The conventional part of the power plant is listed at $1.4 BN (page 107), which comes at about $640 MM/GW, in line with the estimate from my previous comment. Their overall estimate for such a power plant is about $14 BN, which means the conventional part of the plant is about 10%.

Of course, in the case of Vogtle 3/4 (which uses 2 AP1000 reactors), the overall cost is estimated at about $25 BN, due to various cost overruns.

Yes the opposite of local but congruent with paying at all
I want to raise another contributor: volume. At most bars in large cities, if I'm in a group of six people, I can not hear someone talking who isn't sitting directly next to me.

The parent commenter said "Take something like the bar in [the television show] How I Met Your Mother. Obviously this is all fictional and these characters spend a lot of time there". The only reason they can meet there and hear each other is because the bar is silent and they're actually on a sound stage. Watch any show where any characters interact at a bar: they talk comfortably in a way that would not work in real life.

Bars and restaurants have simply gotten measurably louder to the point where people are choosing to meet at home instead. When English Pubs and U.S. speakeasies became popular, amplified music was not a thing. Even the name "speakeasy" comes from the fact that people could and did speak quietly in the bars!

> But consider a 1993 study of about a dozen dining establishments, which found that sound levels peaked at 68 decibels (a little louder than normal chitchat). Compare that with a much larger 2018 survey of New York City restaurants, in which one-quarter hit at least 81 decibels (more like a garbage disposal), the average level was 77, and just 10 percent were 70 decibels or below. The report deemed those “quiet.”

Scientific papers abound

> There are increasing numbers of reports from patrons complaining about the difficulty in conversing with fellow diners due to loud venues. In Zagat’s 2016 Annual Survey, when surveyors were asked what irritated them the most about dining out, noise was the second highest complaint (25%) behind poor service (28%). But in major urban cities of San Francisco, Boston, Portland and New York City, noise was the number one complaint [34]
Sorry to read this.

You don't mention the cause of your chronic pain, but I'm guessing it's probably related to startup stress & long hours of tense work in front of a computer screen i.e. RSI. I'll add my experience here in case it's useful.

I went through several years of severe, disabling RSI / chronic pain in my 20s, about 6 years ago.

Have written two blog articles about it.

http://edgecase.net/articles/an_overview_of_repetitive_strai...

http://edgecase.net/articles/further_recovery_from_rsi

Recovered from 1-2% working capability to 90% (with some ongoing costs e.g. visits to osteopath).

There's certainly a mental component (you can get stuck in an emotional loop), so I haven't ruled out Sarno, mental recalibration etc. But I will say that dealing with the pain via direct loosening treatments of knotted muscle is almost definitely the right first step.

Hope you find these articles useful, and good luck.
That's fair; I think it's similar enough to my #2 that my points related to that still largely apply.
You must have had closed eyes when you tried to sign in as you can register using just an email.
It is likely to be quite effective if you talked yourself back down to earth. If you permit the crude phrasing, your "value" in the "dating market" peaked 20-15 years ago and you are well past your prime. (Yes, yes, "individuals", "not generalisations", "blah blah", but you are talking statistics when you've gone out with 120 men already).

Upon reading your post, it appears highly likely you are overestimating how clever you are.

Also, do not forget that almost nobody seeks a long term relationship (of the "looking for a mate" kind) where they do not feel "needed".

Another factor to consider is that grandiosity is often a symptom of a deep unmet need from childhood.

I hope you learn the humility which is necessary to find what you are looking for. Good luck!
Isn't that just you are getting older and thus more likely to go to pubs where people are older?
Every single company is guaranteed to try and assure employees the company's doing okay.

Think about it for a second, regardless of if your employer intends to do layoffs or not, the moment people fear for their jobs, they'll spend more time looking for work.

I prefer the quick rip the Band-Aid off lay off, give me a bit of severance, let me shake the hands of upper management and we can all move on for our lives
Public transport is pretty good in the UK, but not to the point of being able to live without a car for a large portion of the population. In London, there is the tube and driving in the city is quite dreadful, so I guess that is the exception, but I would say that the UK is pretty car-centric overall.
i'm old school but:

1) there's this amazing tool that allows you to send a longform communication directly to one or many people where it will get stored and when they're starting their workday they'll see it. it's called e-mail. you should turn off notifications on your phone for e-mail... if a message is urgent, they can call or text.

2) you shouldn't obscure when you're working. creative people often prefer to work late, you should be honest about this so early morning expectations are relaxed. if you're typically a morning person and up on a production issue you should not be expected to be in first thing the next day after staying up late to fix it.

3) all this delayed fake timestamp messaging just contributes to a toxic culture of everybody appearing to be working all the time.
The gravimetric density of liquid hydrogen is pretty great, but the volumetric density is 4x lower, only 10GJ/m3 versus 38GJ/m3 for kerosene.

I'm told this has really big impacts for aircraft design, which will put hydrogen aircraft at a big disadvantage compared to kerosene fueled vehicles. I could be wrong on this, and don't have any references handy, so I definitely welcome being corrected on this.
Politics isn’t about what people “have in them.” It’s about everyone pursing their perceived self interest.

If you attack a group of people, they will consolidate ranks and fight back. And they will throw their weight behind leaders that they perceive as fighters. This is especially true of honor cultures like in the American south.

I’m reminded about the speech George W. Bush gave after 9/11: https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/news/releases/20.... I think liberals don’t fully understand the genius of this speech. He wasn’t just moralizing to Americans to tell them not to take out their anger on Muslims. He was giving Muslim Americans an opportunity to reaffirm their Muslim identity while giving them a vocabulary to talk about the ones who did evil in the name of Islam.

Contrast this against the rhetoric the media in New York uses against people in the rural south anytime something bad happens there. They portray it as a confirmation of the bad things that New Yorkers already believed about southern culture.

I'd really recommend an fx2 logic analyzer. Basically anything called logic analyzer on Amazon or Aliexpress with 24 MHz sample rate, 8 channels and for less than 15 bucks.

They work with the open source sigrok software and basically just DMA the io to the host, thus the sampling rate and the cost, but can record for dozens of minutes.
This.. ultimately, unless you're self-hosting, you will not get the additional benefits. It is way more ideal as well to build your blog around a tool like Hugo where you can at least create your own metrics a lot easier.
So whatever happened to this chip. It seems like a million transistor 64 bit CPU would have been revolutionary in the mid-80's, but I've never even heard of it.
If America ever wants to solve racial tension, it needs to stop pretending that racial problems are fixed. They’re not, and all the data that matters says that very clearly (compare health outcomes, relative poverty, educational outcomes, incarceration rates, etc. across racial groups in America, and Black Americans are consistently in the worst groups for each of those—this is indicative of systemic problems that the racists in power don’t want addressed).

> CRT is clearly being used as a generic term and not a college level idea. Maybe we should have two separate terms, but similar concepts are absolutely being taught.

This is utter bullshit on every level, and you should be ashamed of yourself for such intellectual dishonesty.

There are two different CRTs. There is the real thing (a graduate level law concept) and then there is whatever the Fox News Outrage Machine has created to argue against. What are they arguing against? Pretty much anything that indicates that America had a dependency on slave labour ("involuntary relocation", anyone?). Pretty much anything that says that the Civil War was about keeping that slave labour. Pretty much anything that says that there was and continues to be a white supremacy problem in America to the detriment of all groups in America (see the recent decision in Wisconsin to drop a book about order 9066, Japanese-American internment, and Korematsu).

Please, start thinking for yourself and stop repeating Fox News Outrage.
the sadder part of this story is that absolutely no regulatory or disciplinary action against the airport or airline ever took place. no reforms, no public report, nothing outside a rolling stone obituary.

its almost as if the veil of theatricality surrounding airport security was momentarily left to fall on the ground and, since no one in particular was around to see it, it was hastily dusted off and returned to service.
2021 was a fake year for growth, that's the point, because we were relying on cheap and plentiful money being subsidized by borrowed time. We'll be paying the press for a long time for the spending and helicopter money that provided demand, while supply was still limited. For Krugman, a monetarist, printing money when there are fewer goods and services in an economy, wasn't registered as a problem. Ah, but he admitted recently that he was wrong in the party line of "transient inflation" (where every private economist outside of academia and the government knew it was not going to be transient and made moves at the end of the 2021).
You kids and your new fangled nano.

Back in my day it was pine and pico. We did SMTP both ways. And we liked it!

Actually, it weirds me out that the default editor on most Linuxes now is a pico clone. Some don’t don’t even come with a vi out of box.

I started with emacs in college because I liked LISP. But once I was a sysadmin, I learned vi fast because it was the common denominator between Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, BSD, Linux, etc. and I was in a group that absorbed teams that used all of them. …OK, to be fair, our stuff was BSD :).

My first instinct on a fresh/new to me host is to vi. And even when I type nano, I can’t stop my hands from doing vi and get peeved. Fine ‘apt install vim’ or whatever.
Physics grad here. We used to say theoretical physicists were people just not good enough for actual math. "Regular" phycisists like myself simply admitted they are too lazy.
Read, study to prepare. Respect the wisdom of each gender, talk to find the common principles of your new family. Then, when approaching every new real life situation of your new dad role, embrace and respect your instinct, it comes with millennia of knowledge.
I highly doubt this tbh. Not that I'm a homomorphic researcher, but in ML I try to keep an eye on it. Everyone I've talked to has always said it is 100x to 1000x slower. Though there is hope since some have told me that they are all CPU based. I have no idea if you could write cuda kernels for this or not. But still, there's a pretty big hit. If you do find a citation I'd love to see it too.

I think what bugs me about that comment is "differential privacy" is a different type of privacy than homomorphic, so would indicate that they are using... differential privacy...

Minor edit: I did find some research papers by Apple mentioning Homomorphic encryption, but nothing to suggest they are using it.
This is common incorrect assumption, it's due to tolerance and consistency of drinking habits, including hydration and liver health.

They may not live in a city. Even tiny villages in the UK will have a pub and some pubs are literally just on their own in the middle of nowhere. I grew up in a small town in eastern England and people would drive from the surrounding villages to go to the pubs there and then drive home after several drinks. Drink driving outside of cities is unfortunately very common.
