I guess it's a matter of opinion because Feedly's interface looks cluttered to me. It's not a bad offender for a webapp but compared to other feed readers its interface is IMO busy.

Also a matter of opinion but app developers IMO shouldn't use their apps to market. I've already got an email app and a Feed reader. If I want to keep up with you I'll subscribe to your mailing list or follow your feed.

I disable auto-update because I get annoyed when apps tell me about new versions (and I have privacy concerns.) I wont consider using an app that doesn't let me disable auto update. I already have a strategy to keep my software up-to-date that works on my schedule.

I recognize I'm sensitive to these things but that doesn't mean they aren't justified or don't make sense. They just don't make sense * to you *.
That’s because all probabilities are conditional, and people don’t consider that.

I've worked in the healthcare tech world (for both providers and payors) so I can comment a little here. There's a difference between "billing to put as many relevant codes as possible" and "billing procedure that were not performed". The former is perfectly acceptable, the latter is not and would be fraud. It's possible it was in error, billing is super complicated so I'd recommend just trying to get ahold of the clinic and talk to them first.

There has to be supporting clinical notes for anything that gets billed. There are companies/researchers that try to find large scale fraud and then pursue legal action under the False Claims Act (if they win they get up to 30% of what is recoverable) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicare_fraud#Medicare_fraud_...

There are also companies that try to help maximize billing. Really they're just trying to bill for everything that occurred, they aren't doing anything exploitive necessarily.
It's not and never will be cheaper to fly at 3500km/h compared to 800 km/h though. Would you pay the extra to shave off a few hours?
But we don’t get 7 hours in a more spacious jet. First class may be getting roomier in the most luxurious of first class having airlines. But many airlines ditched first class and their business class didn’t get more room when they added bigger planes, they simply adjusted the row placements, maybe one or two rows more business class on their busy routes that could justify it.

Airlines seating (minus first class) has on average become smaller in both business and economy class during the same timespan that relegated the Concorde to history. The airlines decided what they wanted. For most of this time airline tickets weren’t as competitive a market either with more flag carriers and less budget airlines cutting the costs at the bottom of the market.

Apparently people are happy choosing both slower and cheaper even if it costs them legroom (up to a point obviously, since Ryanair famously wasn’t allowed to try the standing room only short haul <2hr flights)

> The planet can sustain much more people, it's essentially empty. More people means more intelligence and more money and power to improve the environment.

"Empty" is a very biblical word, with shades of the brass age Hebrew mission of “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”

It's time to drop superstitious beliefs and take a hard look at reality. For example, we're using resources at a rate that is no longer sustainable (https://www.footprintcalculator.org/home/en).

> Dairy isn't nutritionally necessary for anyone. Perhaps it was in the past, but not now.

Assuming alternative sources of the same essential nutrients, I agree – no single food is nutritionally necessary or ever was. In the real world, meanwhile, dairy products are a key source of protein etc. for people in at least some regions where sufficient alternative sources are not widely affordable or available. Certainly, milk was crucial to the survival of many populations as recently as a century ago (not "aeons ago during some ancient famine").

> Evolution informs us about why we eat what we eat and how we might be affected by various foods

Evolution is an open-ended history of accidents, with much to say about what works for us (as opposed to what cannot).

> but it does not control us.

Indeed. Not only does it not control us, we cannot even conclude based on it that a novel environment or resource will not be advantageous. In the case of ungulate milk consumption, it turns out it was.

> Not sure what you mean about telos.

Evolutionary adaptations are in the nature of accidents, not guided by any purpose or implying any optimal "natural" state. Populations taking advantage of accidental fitness for new niches is a defining pattern in the evolution of life on earth, and consumption of milk by some human populations fits that pattern. Drawing conclusions about the suitability of drinking milk because "we didn't evolve to drink it" is fallacious (in contrast to, say, explaining most people's lack of lactase persistence by their ancestors' non-consumption of milk, which is sound, non-teleological reasoning).

Growth vs. value, development vs. maintenance, innovation vs. operations.

It really seems like a lot of projects should embrace the the path of becoming a stable product: Charging 10 USD a year, assigning a single person to a comfy job of maintaining the app without adding new features. Just maintaining infrastructure, updating packages, and doing the occasional exchange of stack when old technologies are deprecated...

That makes little sense - what we're seeing in Africa like everywhere else is that increased living standards, education and healthcare including family planning consistently leads to dropping birth rates.

Given the "theme song" linked to in your profile, it's quite obvious where this is coming from, but let's talk unsustainable cultures then:

Again, from your theme song and your apparent fondness for the Teutonic Order I'm assuming you're at least familiar with Germany and the German social security system, which is very much a part of their culture.

The German state pension system basically amounts to a Ponzi scheme that requires a continuous influx of new contributors in order to not implode.

Not only is this pretty much a textbook case of "unsustainable", but given German culture is quite averse to change (which is unsustainable, too, by the way) and it therefore isn't particularly likely they're going to abandon their current pension system anytime soon, "bringing people from these undeveloped countries" also is about their only option left to keep the system from collapsing for just a little longer.

I'm not even talking general economic and societal repercussions here. It can be argued that a society with a declining population isn't long-term sustainable and ultimately will succumb to stagnation and a lack of innovation.
It might be a neologism but im using it in the sense of biogenic and abiogenic mineral creation.
>The new Soviet Census (1939) showed a population figure of 170.6 million people, manipulated so as to match exactly the numbers stated by Stalin in his report to the 18th Congress of the All-Union Communist Party.

https://www.reuters.com/world/china/researcher-questions-chi...

Lots of sources question population data as well as all other officials statistics. Nobody care. It is not just numbers, it is political statements.
And all that innovation happened thanks to the population living a good life with excess of resources. The people who lived in poverty didn't create much innovation at all, making more people who live in poverty wont add any innovation.

And even worse, if you add people until most has to live a life on the brink of starvation again that could stop innovation from ever happening again in the future, our current time is an historical anomaly and there is no guarantee that we can ever get back here if we screw up and get everyone back to a state of misery. There are only so many ways we can improve food production, we found a lot of them the past 200 years and that led to a ton of innovations since people no longer had to worry about starvation. But all of that will quickly revert if you can no longer buy food at a supermarket, since there is simply not enough food to feed every American, some will have to starve to death.

All available data shows that high birthrates are linked to societal effects of poverty, low access to education and healthcare, not to culture. When Africans move elsewhere, their birth rates adapt rapidly to their new home countries, as do every other group.

As such, talking about "unsustainable cultures" here is pure xenophobia.

If they were giving away home windows, I’d agree. But I think they know they have a monopoly and don’t care and are just squeezing extra revenue as much as possible.
ZeroTier was arguably the pioneer in this market, but aside from being too early, their product was not nearly as polished or fast. Their clients are also closed source and they actively went after third party coordination servers, wherenas I hear headscale mentioned by tailscale employees all the time.

Tailscale goes for adoption by convincing enthusiasts that might also be decision makers.

ZeroTier thought it could just survive on its own merit, in a time where "Zero Trust" as a concept was almost entirely unknown.

> If you get hit by any of those points you list, then you're the one responsible for that.

If someone on the street hands you a free sample, say a candy bar, is it then your responsibility to check that the candy bar:

1. contains no razor blades (malicious behavior), and

2. contains no peanuts because of your allergy even though the packaging says it doesn't (lying about what it is)?

Obviously not, anyone handing those out violating those assumptions is an asshole and in most jurisdictions a criminal. It is not the responsibility of the acceptor to check these things, our society expects (and enforces through the law) that people are honest and non-malicious. Even if the sample is free.

The exact same applies to source code you distribute. It would not be reasonable to analyze every free candy bar for hidden razor blades by meticulously taking it apart, nor do a spectral analysis for peanut traces in exactly the same way it is not reasonable for people to verify every line of code.

For the laymen's in the audience such as myself can you answer the question.
You like development work and you are willing to learn and to put in the hours. Putting into practice what you have learnt in real-life situations is always going to throw a few spanners in your way that you can't possibly avoid without prior experience. Don't worry about it. It's not you, it's life. Don't beat yourself up about it.

Try learning through socialising, too. Reach out socially to rookies with whom you can share tales of woe - and maybe laugh together about them, and congratulate each other on the experience gained from them - and reach out to experienced devs who are willing to mentor rather than criticise you for understandable mistakes that they've probably forgotten they used to make themselves.

I truly doubt that you are incompetent, and I know for sure that you are not incompotent, and I really hope that you don't mind a bit of wry humour ;-)

Best wishes on your path to confidence and success.

Yes, by necessity. We're 15 years after the end of the race for frequency, and the end of moore's law is getting ever closer.

I don't think you can really compare electricity or indoor plumbing (unobtrusive technology) to smartphones (extremely obtrusive technology).

I still use computers and the internet, including Android devices, at home and work (quite non-trivially, actually - I am my family's sole provider and 100% of that income comes from a mix of online business and remote consulting) and I'll still talk to friends, family and employees via SMS or occasionally voice.

Genuinely, man, as someone who has actually done it, you miss out on absolutely nothing and gain so much.
