Don’t feel guilty if you lack any of the Hollywood feelings and emotions. I didn’t feel the warm fuzzies the first time I held my kids. I didn’t even particularly like or enjoy them until they were able to move and interact a lot more (3 months, maybe?)

Also: two books that I found most helpful: Happiest Baby on the Block and Simplicity Parenting.

YMMV. It’s quite different for everyone.

Edit: if you’re like me, you’ll pack on the pounds in the next 5 years. I’m working out regularly now and feel / look much better. I wish I’d done that from the start.

- it conflates a build system (like bazel) with CI execution platforms (like buildkite)

- it ignores the origins of CI - build everything from scratch so none of your workflow optimizations affect anything
They don't have to release the console, customers will broadly be happy enough if you issue them a NFT that may one day be redeemable for the console and will trade it for many times the console's actual value.
Why is it desperately needed? People have chosen to waste ridiculous amounts of energy on a wide range of stupid things, why should the rest of us suffer loss of natural habitats to support that? The point of renewable energy is to help the environment, not kill and replace it.

We are talking about RI, not India, we have plenty of wind, and already use natural gas in the interim, and we are not in any shortage. Other places can make great use of solar fields, because they have the space for them.
Qualcomm chooses low cost over performance on purpose. AMD 6900U is still at a process disadvantage compared to M1. AMD's comparable chips won't come out for many more months.
Given that whatever Apple has is not going into 80% of the desktop market, 60% of the mobile market, 100% of game consoles, or 100% of the server market, it matters much less than some Apple afficionados make out of it.

No meat and thus little to no animal fats? No.
Patch [1] seems to be exactly what you’re describing — “local news in a box”:

> What is Patch?

My Connecticut hometown had a Patch site. As other commenters have pointed out, apps don’t address a dearth of local journalists (Patch appears to encourage community participation, which sounds good, but is not journalism), funding for local news (though I would expect it to reduce operating costs), etc.

Yes. That's what the thing you just quoted says.

This isn't a theoretical leap, either. It's unauth CBC with PKCS#7 padding with OpenSSL's API.

But it did. "X uses Y which is vulnerable to Z" does, emphatically, state that X is vulnerable to Z. Your rant is unnecessary.
Tiny Core's small enough that I'll often throw the entirety of it in /boot or /boot/EFI on my Linux desktops as a recovery environment.

Overengineered things will tend to survive. Since they didn't really know how gravity/structural forces work, they would have made some bridges with too much reinforcement and some with too little.

You end up seeing the survivors. Luckily they are also not made of something requiring maintenance like metal.
If she’s into science and physics, I think that’s a great age to get her interested in radio.

I recommend starting with an RTLSDR ($30 on Amazon) and a homemade dipole. You can use an open source program called GQRX to listen to it. This will be fun to just listen to local FM radio, air traffic controllers, EMS/Police in your area if it’s not encrypted.

If she seems interested and you want to go a bit further, buy a block frequency upconverter (there’s one on Amazon called “ham it up” for ~$30) and make a large antenna for the 20M ham band. You’ll be able to pick up people from all over the country, and if you do a good job on the antenna, all over the world.

Most importantly, it’s fun and you get to work with your hands. You get to have fun trying to get ropes over trees in your yard to hang the antenna high enough. You get to deal with the problem of measuring out 60 feet of wire and cutting it. You have to figure out what trees to hang the antenna on so that it’s pointing where you want to listen (not directly East, but northeast due to the curvature of the earth, Google maps “measure distance” can help give a vector). This is all done with a cheap run of coax and speaker wire, no more than $40 in materials.

If she’s into it, you can get your ham radio technician license for a $15 fee, and you can get two way radios on Amazon for the VHF/UHF bands for $20 (baofeng UV5R). Fun to study for.
I think this all ignores the opaqueness of most PaaS providers - when everything is on a single box, you have infinite observability, standard Linux perf analysis tools, etc.

If you do it correctly, it is loads easier to reason about and understand than a complex k8s deployment.
True, but I imagined fetching every file with wget or equivalent and then just using it locally. Doesn't work anyway because the data is not all there.
Same, disabled. Luckily I paid into insurance and got disability coverage but even still it isn't enough to make ends meet in Los Angeles. I haven't found a solution. It sounds like you're doing better in some regards. I would say do what you can to improve your situation like the claim and what not as early as possible and say fuck you to the negative self talk that might be holding you back from getting help. Talk to some disability advocates or lawyers to help out as well.
I don't know that I agree.

Simply speaking, the vast majority of cryptography work has nothing to do with tomfoolery to prevent side channels-- even if we're doing low-level fundamental algorithm stuff, which most of the time cryptographers are not doing. (When's the last time you thought about AES in detail?)

The way people stumble is in protocol errors and fundamental errors of composition.

They don't have to (and probably shouldn't) be globally defined.
I was in a similar situation, minus the physical disability (I was mentally in a really bad place though). The only advise I have is to not think of any job as below you. I don't know your exact situation or your disabilities, but if you can deliver pizzas to at least keep your head above the water, do that. Having gone through YC you're obviously also a bright and intelligent person, how many different companies have you tried consulting for? Some companies could be more understanding than others of your situation, in which cases making 1500 a month shouldn't be a huge problem in this industry. Sorry you're going through this friend..

> a strange position to have for knowledge workers whos main output is also intellectual property that is stolen constantly by others.

It's not that strange for folks who consider the value of even significant chunks of code or distributed software to be close to zero. Combine that with the lack of value of copy protection at its significant and it makes total sense why developers may have a weak stance on piracy.

I think at the end of the day people just don't care.
That sounds like a really difficult situation. What sort of jobs would you be interested in? What do you think are your relative strengths & skills?
Who needs to look at their owner's manual in an emergency? Nearly 99% of car manuals collect dust in the glovebox. Now that I think about it, I have never not even once seen someone pull a manual out of their glovebox. The only person that I know that has even read through the first few pages is myself, because I used to read my parents' manuals when I got bored as a kid.
I can't say I have been in a similar situation or that I am qualified to be giving specific advice. I'm glad you're seeking help from a trained professional. I will say this though:

Even though it may be hard to do so right now, try to focus on the things that are in your control at the moment. What was your skillset before your disability. Which of these skills do you still hold now?

Are there any disability inclusion legislations in your country you could take advantage of when looking for a job?

I'd even do some research. What is your long term goal? You said you were a founder in the past. Do you still want to do something similar to this? Try to see if there are founders that had similar situations to yours. You can even look into their lives and the road that they took before they got to where they currently are.

As for the short term things like being late on payments and bills, try to ask a friend or family member for help with your finances. They might be able to look at things more objectively and help you make cuts in certain areas until you get back up to where you may want to be.

This is all of course going to take a lot of work, and it's definitely going to have its challenges. This fight is not going to be easy but I assure you that it will be worthwhile. I wish you the very best.
Instead we should elect geriatrics, who can barely speak up half the time, or look like they're about to collapse from good old American heart disease any minute.
In the newborn phase: sleep is hard. Mindfully try to get your sleep whenever possible. Long term sleep deprivation is really brutal on the body and mind.

In general: Kids thrive on consistency. If you're a gamer than think of it this way: You are now an NPC. Your role is to show up every day, keep them fed and healthy every day, give them their quests, and then stand back and give them the opportunity to be the hero.

Also a really specific tip I would give myself: Don't introduce iPads at all. I'm not against screens, I would just suggest bringing in more wholesome gaming like a Switch or 2DS or maybe even a Steam deck. The problem with the iPads (and Androids too) is that the App store is a dumpster fire of trashy microtransaction and lootbox based games, many of them deliberately designed to manipulate children. Hopefully a lot of those patterns are made illegal soon.
I think the answer to software apocalipse is both:
- get better tools
- get better programmers

And in fact we have been doing it - the tools are so much better than they used to be and with tdd, refactoring, patternals and clean code we have been building increasingly complex software with less bugs.

Still a long way to go.
nuclear doesn't use cheap small turbines like that. the output is far too large and they're nowhere near efficient enough.

a 1gw plant is currently about $7.5 billion, most of which isn't hardware but cost of capital, so the price you're claiming is 10% of total, which is hardly "negligable." Typical US buildout is 71% cost of capital, 15% equipment, 12% construction, 2% permitting, so, the number you're claiming would represent half of the entire plant equipment cost, which isn't correct

nuclear plants typically use either two or three very different kinds of turbines, which are an order of magnitude different in price - msbs, lsbs, and maybe elsbs if the plant is big enough

EDF's entire nuclear turbine business - they're one of the largest on earth - is only valued at 1.1 billion, which at your price is ... less than two turbines

What are you interested in work wise, do you already have the required skills or can upskill? Perhaps gigs related to your skills? If you need to build up portfolio you could volunteer? I think everything is easier when you have a team, would you be able to join any groups online or otherwise with similar interests or disabilities? Best of luck and let us know how it goes, you’re not alone!

8.5 yo for sure and with Ubuntu. I improved it a little (32 GB and two 1 TB SSDs) but I bet that the original 8 GB + HDD would be OK for browsing. Browsers got faster and that helps compensating sites that got slower.
Go fishing. There’s something about hanging out by the water and having a good time that is just special. Catching fish doesn’t really matter.

A big problem with "just sequencing" is that there are a lot of ways of sequencing that either don't require the complexity of a monad or for which the monad interface is insufficient.
Worse, since society becomes reliant on big players, their risk is further lowered by the fact they "can't possibly fail or it would be a disaster". At that point it's more like every big player gets an extra card they can choose to use.
I think it states that Qualcomm is not competing with apple on the success metrics that this post talks about re catching up, so you can't use it as a comparison. No idea how fast they could hit those specs up if they wanted to (was core to their business)
My understanding is that they don't. Realtime tasks have strict priority over non realtime tasks. As long as there are runnable rt task the kernel won't schedule any other task.

At least that's the theory. I think these days the kernel reserves (optionally?) 5% cpu to non rt tasks, enough to run a shell and kill a runaway rt process.
If you take out a loan on illiquid asset like RSU then your bank is the one taking advantage of you. Like the housing crises where banks gave out mortgages to people that couldn’t afford it and everything collapsed.

The article says: "They enable you to digitally link exclusive videos to your stamp." ­— which sounds more like a waste of time.

Also: "Introducing unique barcodes allows us to connect the physical letter with the digital world and opens up the possibilities for a range of new innovative services in future." ­— which is 100% fluff.

Leverage vs. Decoupling
That would be a dumb way to build a decoder. Which is why that's not how it works on x86 processors.

What an x86 processor does is fetch an entire cacheline of instructions at once. Working out which byte corresponds to instructions is a straightforward state machine--and state machines can be parallelized as reduction tree, because function application is associative! (This is usually described as "x86 processors start decoding, in parallel, every byte as if it were the start of a new instruction.) My guess for x86 is that resolving instruction length takes a single cycle, a single stage of the instruction decode pipeline.

It's actually hard to come up with x86 instructions that are 15 bytes long. Your typical general-purpose instruction is going to max out around 4 bytes (REX + other prefix + opcode + ModR/M byte), and even that's a little long. A "complex" memory instruction that moves a 4-byte constant into a register + constant offset will manage 12 bytes, but that's really the limit of practical instruction. So there's no point building a decoder capable of ingesting that many extra-long instructions a cycle because it is so synthetic a use case.

Sure, you could design a better compressed ISA for decoding than x86, but the impact of its complexity on processors is vastly oversold. Just look at how much die space the x86 decoders actually take up to see how little of an impact it has.
This explanation is useless imo because it expects the reader to already understand the weirdest part:

"If I have a function A -> B, how could I possibly get something that goes in the direction F B -> F A out of it?"

The answer to this is: given e.g. a function that accepts a B, i.e. `B -> ...` you can compose it with `A -> B` on the _input side_, to get a function that accepts an A, i.e. `A -> B` (+) `B -> ...` = `A -> ...`.

Once you've managed to get that across, you can start talking about contravariant functors. But expecting people to just intuit that from the condensed type signature is pedagogical nonsense.
Jami – Yet Another Open Source Messenger “Done Right” Review
The original article was written due to v13.0 being released.
Hate to break it to you but Trump lost the popular vote and there are several states and many counties that will always go republican despite them losing the popular vote.

Is your electoral system fair if it is this gerrymandered?

Furthermore, most states and districts are “safe” for one of the two main parties. Of the remaining places, a voter can choose between either of only two parties. If neither represent them, then they have no one to vote for. This situation is not “free” in the true sense of the word. You do not have a free vote, and in most places your vote is meaningless.

Worse still is the fact that one of your political parties openly attempted to overthrow the result of the election in order to stay in power, and the other party has not brought the full force of the law to bare for fear of speaking civil unrest.

It is not hyperbolic to warn Americans of the extreme danger their democracy is in, nor of its inherent weakness due to the rather antiquated voting system it uses.

Stacking a court goes against the separation of power that the three estates were supposed to uphold. No party that openly tries to pack a court against the will of the people should get a single vote from anyone who cares about freedom.

Obviously you can choose not to aim for the best possible performance in order to reduce costs. But for the companies that are competing for the absolute best performance at any cost, which doesn't include Qualcomm, by far the biggest factor determining that performance is the fabrication technology.
I agree with your remarks. Adding one aspect for thought:

> We’re one country but we don’t share a single set of values.

Problem is: from the perspective of massification efforts, we're all equal.

That holds not just to US citizens. Anywhere in the world it's like that.

My friend, I am very sorry. Focus on what you can do right now. The first thing you can do is work hard to find joy in every day of life. Yes, it exists, and yes, you have to look for it. This will help you turn around your depression.

Lastly, you are more than the sum of your accomplishments. Your material needs are few, and your qualifications many. Get a job doing anything you can do from home, and just start grinding. Don't worry about trying to get back to where you were. Accept your new normal and work it like any other problem.
