> That would be you making it complicated. What are you all doing with your Kindles that needs multiple levels of organization?

A Kindle Keyboard 2 is completely different than a Kindle Oasis 3. The file format they use is different (they've changed formats a few times in the last 13 years,) the software is old enough on the Keyboard 2 that it's fundamentally quite different, etc.

This doesn't even preclude other e-reader companies existing which further complicates the setup. What if your old Kindle dies and suddenly none of your scripts work anymore because the new Kindle is just subtly different in how it works? What if you suddenly hate the Kindle ecosystem and want to switch to Kobo?

>Keep track of what?

Having more than one e-reader? This is not an uncommon case, honestly.

Come on dude. Condescension and dismissal are nearly synonyms. I don't know why you're dying on this hill, your argument stands equally well without it.

Society deciding something is important is not what I mean by "meaningful" here. GPA predicting success is, as you note, a self fulfilling prophesy - so if we just assigned them at random, and then colleges and employers continued to take them seriously, that would just a meaningful exercise? And then if in successive generations we assigned your GPA to be the average of your parent's GPA - still great?

> ...I think we as an industry have let this go, especially since the rise of bootcamps. It just isn't about the craft anymore, its all about "hustle". There is some truth to the fact that engineering in this time there was more caring about it as a craft, caring about performance, caring about shipping quality etc.

Hustle almost always seems like the most direct path to market/economic success. As market imperatives increasingly dominate, other priorities (like "craftsmanship") fall by the wayside.

IMHO, the market system is important and useful, but it's also pernicious in a lot of ways. It needs to be powerfully kept in check, otherwise things become shiny and hollow.
Serious question, why do y'all keep browsing it now if you know you'll be getting rid of it as soon as the old ui stops working?

This feels like the weirdest instance of stockholm syndrome, I've seen this so much. And don't get me wrong, I totally understand where you're coming from, Reddit is user-hostile as hell. But... why keep using it then? Why keep giving pageviews and ad money to a trashy website that hates you?

I used to post a ton on Reddit. My browsing of it has been reduced to maybe all of a couple times a week on my local city's subreddit only. I didn't wait for the UI to go even more to shit to essentially stop using it.

Edit: I guess my point's been missed. Maybe to rephrase: How do you get any sort of enjoyment out of actively using a website that hates you? How does this not make you want to use it less and less regardless of how good the content is?

A Look at Remix and the Differences with Next.js
Curious if being swedish national has to do with perspectives. From what I heard, perspectives of swedish nationals usually involves leaving Sweden.

I'm living on Kungsholmen for several years already if that matters.

Getting to Kungens Kurva from Thorildsplan involves one change and realistically takes a bit more than an hour to get there. Of course, you can't bring a huge box with your new sofa to a bus or metro and Ikea won't deliver bigger items too, so you have to deal with either renting a car or paying insane prices for delivery.
Same goes for bringing larger items to manned garbage collection stations.

I don't rent a car because I feel insecure about driving someone's else car after many years without driving experience.
I'd consider this a bug and not expected behavior.

I read Anna Karenina and also War and Peace at a time in my youth between work and school where I had the time to just relax with friends and just read a lot of novels. Only in retrospect do you realize how precious those times are.

War and Peace was hard to start because of all the characters, but I got lost in it and it was really worth it. You don't have to pay a lot of attention to the chapters on the meaning of history unless it interests you. Anna Karenina I felt like I dived right into because it was a "smaller" story focused on really well defined characters. But I don't feel like it gripped me all the way through as much as War and Peace.

With books like that-- if you have the time to really sink into them-- you feel like you know the characters as people in the way you know your friends. They are like people you have known. The closest modern book to that I think is A Suitable Boy.

But if it isn't for you in terms of your time or your interest you shouldn't feel bad about it.

Unfortunately, if this is your understanding of monad, that is itself proof that you did not "get it". It is neither required for mutable state, nor required for mutable state in Haskell, nor are all monad implementations about mutability. That is, that understanding is neither a subset of understanding monads, nor is a proper understanding of monads a subset of thinking of them as being about mutability. It's just wrong, unfortunately.

I wrote about this extensively in http://www.jerf.org/iri/post/2958, "Functors and Monads For People Who Have Read Too Many 'Tutorials'". If original post is from 2008, then it is the sort of "too many 'tutorials'" that you may have read about them.

You'll almost certainly be getting BT FTTH in the next year or two if you have access to VM. The program is running quickly, something like 6 million premises a year and ramping.

VM can be ok or can be congested depending on the area. BT FTTH doesn't suffer from congestion issues (nor does the FTTC).

This is a terrible take. So you're saying restaurant workers in high end restaurants don't deserve income, neither do musicians, or any number of artists and artisans based on what YOU think is valuable to society.

Yeah I was about to write this. Thinking that monads are only about sequencing works only for IO, effectively. Option and Either are about short circuiting, and there's others that mess in execution state in hilarious ways (like the TARDIS monad and its time travelling shenanigans). I tried "understanding" monads for years but now I'm not really sure if there is anything to understand in particular. It's super simple and super generalized at the same time, it's really hard to explain why it is that way without going deep into scary mathy territory (while also preserving analogies that actually apply)
Actually I think those who come out the most ahead are those interested in the field, even when nobody else is. It seems a better strategy than trend hoping is to find something you like, that can plausibly be useful and invest in that.

> "The software engineering team had two titles: Software Engineer and Senior Software Engineer. This was typical in the industry. You had to have at least 10 years of experience, but more likely 15 years, as a Software Engineer before being considered for promotion to Senior. The bar was higher for Senior then, too. I’d say a Senior engineer back then was skilled and experienced more like a Staff or Principal engineer today."

amazing to see that the title inflation in our industry has roughly matched actual economic inflation :)

on a more serious/optimistic note, there is a lot more tech to learn today than in 1989, and we probably learn at a faster rate too given the available amount of material (HN, youtube, books, etc). so perhaps not unwarranted. i'd love to pit a senior engineer of today vs a senior engineer of 1989 in doing modern programming tasks.

Extraordinary amount of work does not guarantee extraordinary quality or results, not even ordinary quality.

Might be fun to re-watch with the director’s vision in mind. I changed my mind about Prometheus after reading a long online post about how it’s an allegory to Jesus, and what implications that has on all the plot points and characters. Watching the movie cold I nearly walked out I thought it was so bad, seeing it again after having updated information made it a better experience for me.
Cause I still find some enjoyment in smaller subreddits. I used to hang out on phpbb forums back in my early teens, now that crowd is mostly on niche subreddits. I just know that I like it, but not enough that it would keep me in if I had to endure the new UI. Not sure what's so Stockholm-ish about that.

Edit: I don't understand how my comment did not answer your rephrased question, so I probably wasn't that clear. old.reddit.com is still there, the API still works just fine, so does my favorite third-party client - the same one I've been using for years. The new features I'm missing out on by using the site in this way, I don't care about. My usage is still perfectly enjoyable and the site doesn't do anything to actively make me feel that "hate" you're talking about.
Here, let me fix the title:

It may seem so boring at first because it is so real. The depth of insight into the characters and culture is what makes it so moving as the plot picks up.

Another perspective shift that makes it more enjoyable: it's a time machine. I wouldn't care for that level of detail in a modern American context or even a fantasy, but a distinct culture nearly 200 years ago? Sign me up.

Then again, if you don't dig it no shame in moving on. There are more books than there is time to read them.

Criticism or suggestion seems fine. Insulting is not. The one example I saw were someone was effectively making your claim was someone insulting him and him responding without any hostility, insults, or banning.
> Yet another example of multi-stakeholderism is the standardization of Internet protocols themselves. Because a specification controls implementation behavior, the standardization process can be seen as a single point of control. As a result, Internet standards bodies like the IETF allow open participation....

This cuts to the heart of it. In my book "The Big Bucks" the characters live through this, and in the 80s it was very often assumed that "multi-stakeholderism" meant a government-chartered body like the CCITT. In fact, in 1990, the federal government actually mandated OSI via GOSIP (there was no commercial Internet then). The consensus on the internet-history mailing list is that by then the war was already over, and TCP had won.

After all, governments MUST be the proper place to balance all the competing interests, mustn't they? So why didn't it work?

Well, TCP was "simple" enough that anyone could implement it, whereas OSI had a whole bunch of "profiles" to accommodate what everyone wanted. As a result, interoperability was impossible as a practical matter.

Network operators didn't even try, since TCP had Interop conferences where vendors came and proved themselves TCP citizens. OSI had nothing remotely comparable. With IETF, things didn't become standards until you had multiple interoperating implementations.

It's a different world now, though. The stakeholders are not all grad students and defense company network administrators. However, a government-sponsored "standards" organization won't work any better now than it did then.

> Monads are not about sequencing. They don't force applying functions
> in an order, at least any more than regular function application does.

Monads are about sequencing. This is easier to visualize if you de-sugar them:

f = do
x1 <- m 1
x2 <- m 2
return (x1 + x2)

is an imperative form of

f = m 1 >>= (\x1 -> m 2 >>= (\x2 -> return (x1 + x2)))

You can see that there is no way to evaluate `x1` without first evaluating `m 1`, even if the result is a thunk.

> Haskell does not need them, they're just an interface and don't

How would you recommend implementing do-notation without the Monad typeclass? Applicative functors aren't enough.

> The monad instance says IO (IO a) is "the same as" an IO a, so really
> any sequencing ability implied in IO (IO a) already pre-exists in IO a.

I don't see your point. That may be true of IO, but it's not true in general. `Maybe ()` and `Maybe (Maybe ())` are different types.

True, but even a large number of droplets will not result in "a ton" of virus, if by "a ton" we mean "similar to what will result if you get sick". A sick person breathes out a lungful with every breath, so obviously a sick person contains far, far more copies of the virus than that.

Put it another way. If your immune system recognizes the virus already, it matters little whether you get one droplet or a thousand, it will beat it because it has a several-day head start in doing so.

If, on the other hand, your immune system does not already recognize it, then it will not begin to see the problem, and thus will not begin to react, until it has replicated up to a large amount, where "large" is some amount greater than either one droplet or one thousand will give you. So, the consequences of getting exposed to 1/2 or 1/10 of the number of copies of the virus, is basically nil, because an exponential rise will be needed in either case to get up to the level where your immune system notices a problem.

Either your immune system already recognizes the virus as a problem, or it doesn't. I neither case does the dose matter, so long as the dose is big enough to start the process. And that probably doesn't take much.

Rolexes are a status item. They're cheap in the world of watches. Many brands you've never heard of command far higher prices.
