You have assumed a strong association with things you've acquired or achieved with your source of satisfaction with life.

You achieved the job and relationships you want, and you expect that to "take care of" your happiness.

You'll have to unlearn this. It certainly doesn't hurt. In fact, it really sets you up to have all the resources you need to learn what really does satisfy you in life. You have the needs met, and the support group you care about, and that cares about you.

But there's always new projects to try, new skills to develop, new areas of knowledge to learn.

Try things, and see if they give you short-term joy and longer term satisfaction. See if there are activities you're happy to do over and over, so that you're not bound to the rewards of novelty. See if certain active hobbies require a long time to master, and if you enjoy that process.

Have you tried taking risks in life? Sounds like you enjoy being left to your own devices, so why not try solo travel in a remote region? South America and places in Southeast Asia can be really fun to do alone.

You might even end up in situations which will untangle you from work or as you call it "the perfect job", and I can say from experience it is extremely liberating.

And you will meet a lot of people along the way, too.

This sounds like the perfect solution for you also as you said you work from home.

Online harassment can be as persistent as in-person harassment - there's countless stories of people being continuously harassed. If it were so easy to block people online 'cyberstalking' wouldn't be such a big problem in the same area.
On a recent trip to Chicago, from the airport, the taxi was about half the price of Uber to downtown, which my wife and I waited about 20 minutes for. Uber would have been a faster pickup at that point, however.

The taxi picked us up, proceeded to drive us Downtown and upwards of 85-90mph on the highway (was about 11pm at night at this point). The car was probably at least 15 years old and the shocks nearly as old.

After that experience, we used Uber the rest of the trip (and back to the airport) and it was an overall better experience by far.

> When caught doing something they’re ashamed of, people say things like, “That’s not who I am” or “That wasn’t really me.” They are implying that reputation-damaging acts are not reflective of their true self. This doesn’t mean they are lying: Many people really believe their shameful acts are not reflective of who they are deep down.

To be charitable, TFA is loosely using truth in the sense of “not intentionally lying,” which is somewhat common. But yeah, just because actions align with my mental model of self isn’t an indication that the model is accurate from the perspective of a third party, which is obviously the more important consideration.

I’m kind of sick of these shock value statements which then recover to something sensible by bending words beyond the breaking point.

However, the GDPR doesn't really apply if you don't intend to target Europeans(2)

And the GDPR is a way way more sensible law than whatever the UK is trying to do here, nobody will comply and no body will care, its only going to Hurt UK citizens and The UK's economy.

I care about privacy and really like what the EU has passed with the GDPR and DSA, but unfortunately we will have countries that does stupid things like this.

As far as I know, only the family manager can share purchased content. If you have different content from two different accounts and join them in a group, only one of those accounts can share their content. Also, groups are limited to six members total only (managers + 5).

In the physical world, if I "buy" something, I can lend it, give it, or even sell it to somebody else.

Alos, the fact that the content is linked to an account rather than a biological person raises other issues about digital identity.

Simply having a document called "a standard" doesn't mean that:

1. the standard covers everything you wished it would cover

2. every implementation implements the standard, with no bugs

3. the standard doesn't itself contain incoherent or contradictory things

Standards are a tool, not magic interoperability sauce.

“Blackmail” refers to the threat of revealing information that is damaging or embarrassing to the target. I used to think that it referred to information that is factually true as this was the only context in which I’d heard the term used.

I only recently learned that the “information” does not necessarily have to be true, i.e., it’s still considered to be blackmail in cases like this where the perpetrator simply makes up bad reviews.

That's a strong word here. I'm sure it had nothing to do with taxis being government sanctioned monopolies in most places that they operated.

I'm not completely sold on the lithium hypothesis, either. But I find their arguments for some kind of environmental contaminant compelling, especially for the ways in which they refute some of the other major hypotheses for the increase in body weights (e.g. food variety, processed food, etc)

The lion cared not for our "freedom to survive", indeed I doubt the lions cared about property rights or the 2nd amendment either.

Freedoms, even when they are freedoms FROM a state entity, only exist because society came together, usually in the form of a state entity, to set norms and expectations and promises.
Misleading headline, we actually don't know much, it's just simulation and guesswork at this point. What is the expected lifetime of an EV, anyhow?

My favorite hypothesis is that it is big refrigerators at home and perhaps widespread use of preservatives that made people fat as it provided uninterrupted access to high calorie food like meat, cookies etc.
> There has been enough uncertainty--on both the Musk and Twitter ends--for the banks to have several legitimate reasons to "blow up his financing."

If Musk can't close because he's blown up his financing... you think this lets him get off clean? He's attempting to walk away before any such eventuality has occurred and Twitter shareholders are incurring costs.

> The banks could come, independently, to a last-minute change of opinion on his collateral--whatever that was for this deal.

If that happened, that's something he should have argued in his letter and something there would be evidence of before Musk tried to walk away.

> When it comes to "sued into oblivion by their own shareholders", who exactly are they?

High powered law firm representing a few chosen shareholders that gets a class designated of all Twitter holders that don't opt out.... just like substantially all shareholder lawsuits of public companies.

Asking this question this way makes me wonder if you have any background knowledge here at all.
Right now Rust often limits what it does to what is supported by LLVM. An example is the become statement. This is a reserved keyword which will eventually act as a jump to a function without saving a return address, the current stack frame becomes a new one. This is tricky since things like deconstructors need to still work. It is only recently that LLVM supported this well, and Clang did it first. Separate implementations and having a standard or some other form of communicatiom between implementers can help with these delays.

EDIT: Clang's version is the attribute 'musttail,' if anyone is interested.
> It involves calculating the inputs to a complicated mathematical process, based solely on its jumbled outputs.

Without going any deeper, this description of the problem is interesting because quantum algorithms are (by design) fully reversible, which isn't the case for classical computers (you lose information about the input when going through an OR gate, for example). Knowing that, it almost seems like a no-brainer that quantum computers would be better at this kind of problem than classical ones.
> And something happened in 1980 which turned 30% of adults into weak-willed moral degenerates, and more and more every year?

@perfectjob This job sounds great; good for you! I have felt many times what you have felt...and some people close to me have wondered if maybe in my case it was some sort of mild depression. Have you considered speaking with a professional? I should emphasize that this might not be any sort of mild depression but the "American way", as others have eluded, where reaching a partocular level makes one feel like it might noe be "enough" (whatever that means).

By the way, may i ask if you wouldn't mind sharing a bit more what your job entails? I'm a little older, and admittedly at a different stage of life, but your role sounds like what i might like...maybe, depending on what you actually do for your living. If you don't want to share here, feel free to email me privately. (My address can be obtained by viewing my HN profile.) Thanks, and I hope that you feel better! As others tell me: life isn't as bad or as boring or as unfulfilling as you might think! :-)

You're not caring about them corrupting democracies world wide ? They not only "took care" of taxis, they also pushed for less workers rights (so they can keep not employing their workers) Pushed the stupid unsustainable "gig economy" propaganda.

And what for? For a business model that make no sense (unless they become a monopoly)?
If the cabs are half the price of a rideshare and they have typically have to wait in those long taxi lines before a fare, how are those drivers not the ones being more exploited?

Lyft/Uber take 20-25% of the fare, so the ride share drivers are making more on the trip. They have variable vehicle upkeep costs, but taxi drivers renting medallions and the vehicles are hardly better off.
and to back up your point... There should be at least 2 implementations for anything to be a spec/standard.

That's certainly how the courts have interpreted things. As always the distinction between "Legal" and "Justice" is left as an exercise to the reader.

For my 2 cents it seems entirely reasonable that an armed gang backed by the state would consider themselves to be individually above the law, since they are constantly told that the ends always justify the means, no matter how odious those means may be.

That almost is what my original comment was, and I still stand by the original one.

But rather than “if it’s hard, why try?”, what I meant by it is "you've tried several times and still don't like it. Why is it that you're trying in the first place".

It is not anti-intellectual to say that one should stop reading a book they don't enjoy and don't have a good reason to get through. There are many other books which will qualify as an intellectual pursuit that the person could enjoy.
Your job is only one part of your life.

You also have family, and you can have hobbies and other pursuits if you want to. Fulfillment comes from all of those aspects of life, not just from your job.
Right, but my point is that this is self-reinforcing. If you put no effort in your desktop site, then nobody will use it. It also creates a vacant niche for competition to get a foothold in.

I'm mainly a desktop user because my hands are too big to use smartphones comfortably. I can scroll decently well but I can't operate the keyboard without running my finger in a pencil sharpener first. There are lots of sites I simply don't use because they don't work well on desktop. It's kind of annoying being told I don't exist.
The thing is that you have to track the price + features + limits.

I did something similar for mobile phone plans and the only way you could do something is by creating categories yourself.
> So it would be enough to support the subset of Rust that gets actually used in the kernel. I would imagine they would be very conservative about which features get used and adopt at a much slower speed.

For now, it's the opposite: the kernel needs several Rust features which aren't even stable yet (https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/2). But I agree that, after Rust has been in use in the kernel for a while (and it no longer needs any unstable features), the kernel developers are going to be somewhat conservative about which features are required (but not about which features are used; they probably will use a lot of conditional compilation, like they already do for gcc/clang, see the compiler-*.h files).
These are different things.

You can ignore its laws by blocking users, and clearly saying you won't comply with such stupid laws.

Being concerned that this can spread to other countries is a big reason why you have to be clear about not playing along.
Once I needed to catch an early flight, and no Uber drivers were available in my vicinity. But most of the time Uber and Lyft worked for me.

If there is a train to the airport, I usually prefer it, because it avoids (unpredictable) traffic jams.

The State of Serverless: June 2022 Update
Oh no, please no more COVID crap...
It's still in the prerelease stage, but v1 will be released later this year. I'm mostly getting hits from China since they tend to be a lot more worried about security. I expect the rest of the world to catch on to the gaping security holes of JSON and friends in the next few years as the more sophisticated actors start taking advantage of them. For example https://github.com/kstenerud/concise-encoding/blob/master/ce...

There are still a few things to do:

- Update enctool (https://github.com/kstenerud/enctool) to integrate https://cuelang.org so that there's at least a command line schema validator for CE.

- Update the grammar file (https://github.com/kstenerud/concise-encoding/tree/master/an...) because it's a bit out of date.

- Revamp the compliance tests to be themselves written in Concise Encoding (for example https://github.com/kstenerud/go-concise-encoding/blob/master... but I'll be simplifying the format some more). That way, we can run the same tests on all CE implementations instead of everyone coming up with their own. I'll move the test definitions to their own repo when they're done and then you can just submodule it.

I'm thinking that they should look more like:

c1
{
"type" = {
"identifier" = "ce test"
"version" = 1
}
"tests" = [
{
"name" = "Some kind of test"
"success" = [
// These must successfully convert to each other
{
"cte" = "c1 [1 2 3 4]"
"cbe" = |u8x 81 01 7a 01 02 03 04 7b|
// Events are a kind of text shorthand for what the parsing of cte or cbe should produce
"events" = ["v 1" "l" "n 1" "n 2" "n 3" "n 4" "e"]
}
{
...
}
]
"failure" = [
// These must fail to decode
{
"cte" = "c1 100 ]"
}
{
"cbe" = |u8x 81 01 64 7b|
}
]
}
]
}

It kind of sounds like you are coming from a baseline assumption that your job should be the most important thing in your life, the thing that gives you fulfillment. That can be true for some people but it isn't true for all people, perhaps not even most people, as much as HN would have you believe that it is.

You have to make your own happiness. All of this shit is fundamentally meaningless anyway, so start from there and figure out how you want to spend your time.

No one here can solve your ennui for you. Only advice I can give is start trying things, throwing shit at the wall and see what sticks.
My friend I am in the same way. I am about to be 30 soon, working 1 - 2 hours 95% of the time, 0 calls or meetings that I don't dictate, no manager / quarterly reviews / 1on1s / etc.

All this while making north of $300k, and I still am not satisfied and looking for more. I grew up poor on food stamps and busted myself for minimum wage and was happy. Now I'm here with almost no work, lots of respect at work, great pay, big house with pool, and I just feel like I want more.

This is a funny thread because Uber at least has started doing both these things.

Uber will show a message saying you won't see the fare until there's a ride. Their FAQ claims it can happen if you hail faster than they can calculate a price, but it happens awfully often to me.

I've also noticed their scheduled rides are really unreliable. They seem to start searching way too late, and I've almost missed a flight over them not finding an available car in Miami of all cities...
