My counter argument is that the pedagogy is primarily with the teachers/professors and the lessons themselves. Granted, the textbooks do contain information about how to go about solving the problems. But in my experience the textbooks primarily functioned as a repository of to-do math problems. Given that math problems cannot be copyrighted, I really feel like most of these textbooks have content for the sake of making the book intellectual property and such fluff is ignored by most classes.
I always think about Agnes Callard's description of the Importance Game:
"I’ve noticed that complaining about how busy one is hits a sweet spot of oppression—I cannot manage my life!—and importance—because I am so in demand!"

https://thepointmag.com/examined-life/who-wants-to-play-the-...

I.e. constantly complaining about being swamped is a way of declaring (often just to ourselves) that we must be Very Important.
I remember being introduced to negative numbers in sixth grade! Completely ridiculous. I was in fifth grade and was in one of those shadow days, where I followed a sixth grader around for the day. I was in their math class and got taught negative numbers, and I just remember thinking "wait, why is this just now being introduced?".
The biggest tragedy is good answers to bad questions. The answer might teach you something you never knew before, but if the question is judged harshly it might get deleted or hidden in search results.
I fail to see how we couldn't continue to trade with the overreach of the federal government eliminated- why couldn't the midwest region still sell beef to the coastal regions?

We've all been duped into believing we need a federal government to maintain what we have, and I very strongly believe we do not.

Shit, I would wager that whatever 'economic' distress balkanization would cause could quickly be recouped by the simple fact that we no longer have the feds taking 15-30% of our paychecks and then sending it over seas to eastern europe or israel.

The Venn diagram of Linux phone users and people who want to reduce proprietaries in their life is rather big. That's to say it's almost the point of the hardware to point you these problems. And in my opinion, frankly, your anecdote is more about your choice of bank and not which phone you use.

That being said, what about banks with open APIs? Wasn't there some EU legislation?

Although unemployment[0] is back to the pre-pandemic low, the employment-population ratio[1] is still below pre-pandemic levels. People just don't want to work. Probably partially due to the same factors that gave way to /r/antiwork's and /r/workreform's explosions of popularity. I'm sure other factors like people moving in with their parents/friends during the lockdown and the stimulus checks are also contributing.

That's a lot of protein, comparable to the amount that bodybuilders consume. Does fasting increase protein requirements?

What about the tax aspect of it? Or do you simply pay tax as resident of the place you last properly lived?

Maybe this is a more relevant question for non-Americans, since most other countries don’t tax their citizens on their worldwide income. Eg UK definitely doesn’t. But often it requires the employer to be comfortable with the HR situation you put them in. Often easier to contract via a company (intermediary HR entity or your own).
Dang, you can easily draw a connection between unstable work environments and unstable technical products. It's directly in the workers benefit to keep a product reliant on them or else they could just die. That's crazy.

Hey.. check out Superpath and Content & Pros Slack communities. They post tons of jobs and you can usually direct message the hiring managers - sure beats the endless blind application game. I can send you some other resources - DM me.
OK to give you a clear example.

Say you have a REST interface for Student and Class.

What do you do in rest if you want to get just a class? What do you do if you want to get a class and its students? What do you do if you want to get a Student and also its class?

For every iteration of the way you need to access the data you have to modify and extend your REST endpoint or do separate queries. Every time the frontend devs want new data related to existing data, they have to do another query or ask the backend to include it.

Or lets say Class has 1000 attributes. Does your REST interface return all 1000 every time? Or can the frontend specify which attributes to load? Things like computed attributes and functions that return data related to the object. GraphQL allows this.

In graphql doing these relationships is dead easy. You define a class and how a student is related to it. Then you could even ask a query like “give me the classes of a student. For each class give me all the students in those classes. For each of those students, give me their classes”. Without the backend having to add anything. All the backend has to do is define the relationship and permissions about how to access the data.

Most GraphQL libs provide helpers for avoiding n+1 queries also, so things get optimized in the above case by only making 4 queries to the DB. Obviously thats a contrived example and most nested things wont go so crazy. But it goes to show how a powerful the API can become from defining such a simple relationship.

As a backend dev you just have to work on transforming data, defining the relationships and checking permissions. You let the frontend determine what data they want to access.

Before working with REST almost every page seemed to need a specialized endpoint to be implemented for the frontend to work, but with GraphQL, the frontend can work much more independently without having to ask the backend to provide a specialized view for more data.

Having water fasted many times, I swear this has something to do with burning all the stored glycogen. I have no backing other than what I’ve experienced myself. I get really hungry for a week after a fast and continue to lose weight or stay the same. Anecdotally, I’ve chalked this up to as long as your glycogen bank isn’t full, you can pretty much eat whatever you want. Water fasting is glorious btw.

If the pain is severe, you will not be able to exercise. Only painkillers will help)

If the pain is intermittent. You may have a muscle spasm. Slow warm-up exercises may help. For example, the "cat-dog" exercise. Do 10-15 repetitions, then put ice on it for 5 seconds. This will allow the blood to circulate. To get rid of back or neck pain, you need the blood to circulate in the problem area and thus nourish the spinal column.

Also problems are often caused by lack of mobility. You become bony. You have to at least do some warming up.

Two observations that sound a bit trivial written down, but were quite an influence when introduced to me:

- some people love to 'be' (describe themselves as) 'busy', 'rushed off [their] feet', and can't be any other way

- phrases like 'not having time' can be a useful shorthand, but are a bit silly, and should be used with the understanding that we all have as much time in the day as each other; we choose how to spend it: 'I don't have time to do x' is more accurately 'I am prioritising other things over x'
Even if they don't fire you, saying no (to anything, ever) will come back to bite you when performance reviews (and raises and bonuses and stock grants) come around. OP is falling into the common internet commenter trap of assuming that the way the world should work is the way the world does work.

Maya Angelou has a quote that's supposed to be inspirational but is actually depressing as hell: "People will forget what you did, people will forget what you said, but they'll never forget how you made them feel." Want to actually succeed in the actual real world and not the fantasy world internet commenters exist in? Focus on making people feel, not on results. If you say "no", they'll remember you made them feel like the person who turned them away when they needed you most. If you just say yes to everything and get to what you can get to, you'll make them feel like the person who tried their best.

Until all of civilization starts rewarding actual results over vague feelings (it never has), focus on appearances.

That’s not what’s happening though. Dealers are artificially limiting supply to induce that sort of logic. They have massive lots of cars parked here in staging areas yet if you check their in stock inventory they quote lead times and wait lists. Surprise though, they have plenty they’re just a bunch of liars taking advantage of the situation.

The other issue is the classic bait and switch they do. They’ll market one price online but once you’re in person suddenly that price is marked up 15k.

The solution? Remove dealers from the equation and let the manufacturers sell directly.
It's not about the yes or no culture difference, it's just the lack of autonomy to solve a known problem, root cause analysis, debugging skills, proposing a solution, empathy towards customers etc.

60 v 40? Nah. It's closer to 5% v 5% with the 90% in between the extremes just looking to live a semi-happy and uneventful life (i.e., they can pay their bills, love their family, etc.)

The politicians and the media (i.e., the 10%) continue to live in a bubble. They have a very biased and incestuous lens. It's groupthink taken to an extreme.

Just look at the news yesterday. Pelosi crossed a line in the sand and visits Taiwan. Given all the other things on our collective plate, how was adding more to that pile (of sh*t?) a good use of her time and energy? And taxpayer resources? Who in the 90% wants more on the pile? And who in the 10% is willing to say, "Nancy! You're only showing how out of touch you are with the 90%."

I'm not suggesting Taiwan be cut loose. Not at all. Only that the sense of priorities is dumbfounding. But perhaps, rather than talk about the economy (and the 90%'s perceptions and fears) it makes better political and media sense to have news of Nancy in Taiwan?

Put another way, it's not the 90% putting the screws to the stability of the democracy. We don't have enough power in hand to do that.
There's an infinite number of things you can say yes to.

Saying no requires discernment, a sense of what's important and what isn't. It requires being intentional about what to do now vs. later vs. never.

Yeah, it's also backed by violence.

Do you know any crypto bros who've been hurt or even arrested?

There is no need for violence. The easy way to kill crypto is to do absolutely nothing. Perhaps the blatant fraud of "stable coins" needs to be addressed but otherwise, just let the marketplace corruption and instability run it's course without the oppressive hand of government getting involved.

Crypto bros who won't accept the inadequacy of their rhetoric will end up broke.

One should note that the participants (N=20) were divided into two groups with the respective regimens, and put on a controlled calorie diet for the rest of the time. Evaluation was after four weeks.

This study tells us very little. Small sample size, constrained diets without a proper control (protein pacing without IF, or no restriction at all), short evaluation horizon.

There could be something to it, but as they say, that requires a lot of further study. In itself this study provides a hint, certainly nothing close to an authoratative conclusion.

I'm not sure the solution makes sense for a lot of startup people.

A mental model for repeatable luck building, especially when in a "yes mode", where just 1 big fast-moving item is unlikely to be the job (networking, partnerships, devrel, customers, investing, ...) , is learning to prioritize bandwidth over latency. This can be true for engineering as well: solutions, bigco, ... .

A lot of the above things are unpredictable in when & how they strike. A latency mindset means pick 1-2 things at a time and work through them... but that's stressful when they are big hurry-up-and-wait items that would require heroic efforts to make it faster. Think David vs. Goliath moments in fighting the slow pace of whatever organizations you're working with. Instead, prioritize bandwidth by multiplexing to another item.

There's no free lunch even with a bandwidth mentality. Now the issue is being randomly oversubscribed when multiple priorities land at the same time.
I am often too swamped to get work done effectively. I tell my manager this on a weekly basis. I still get new stuff put on my plate.

Wow, what a blast from the past. I haven't heard this song in 20 years, when it was on the radio, and mostly just ignored it then - when I was young and powerful, to quote the song.

Hearing it now was oddly relieving. It's like every line tells/assures you of things you think about, realize, or worry about - suddenly making it all just seem perfectly normal and OK. Especially for someone without parents or mentors to give you such advice. I guess I was just too young and 'allknowing' to relate to it or appreciate it when it came out.
I also just discovered that “new” entry while posting this link and it was indeed quite a good read.
Selection Bias and Information Bias in Clinical Research
I went to college in the mid aught's and it was obvious how it worked back then. I mean, has intro algebra or calc changed much in the last couple centuries? Basically all the different editions did was shuffle the chapters around a bit to make it hard to share a page number with a classmate and changed the values on the homework problems so you couldn't complete assignments using the old edition.

I don't think it fooled many people, but on the other hand, people keep wanting to eat. It does feel like there are a lot more productive uses of human work, but that's true for a lot of the economy.
This assessment resonates with my experience as well.
Have you considered a move to Canada? We always need good people and you can forget about stressing out over healthcare. If I moved to the US right now, I would (as I understand it) probably have a lot of difficulty getting any insurance company to cover me given my pre-existing conditions. If I did find an employer to take me on, it would be stressful knowing I was dependent on them. Here, while I do have an OK health plan to supplement public health care, it is more a nice to have and table stakes for any knowledge work job.
I am current eating around that, and I am by no means a bodybuilder. I shoot for between 150 to 160 grams of protein per day.

There's new discussion these days that western diets are woefully under consuming protein. Based on my own anecdotal evidence this year, I would certainly agree.
A lot of communities have discords and slacks. On those, there's almost always a #random channel. Visit a view and ask questions. Usually people who hang out there are the kind of people who love helping. For example, I did a Symfony PHP project once and still hang around their chatrooms sometimes just for their userbase. People who build frameworks and libraries usually have the skillset to answer more "high level" questions.
When you're reliant on healthcare and live in America that is first concern before anything else. Not to turn a post political, but the employer-tied healthcare situation in America is borderline a form of slavery. In tech it is simply well-paid slavery. I rarely if ever take vacations, and due to healthcare requirements cannot explore starting my own company or being without an employer to take an extended sabbatical from work. I am well compensated for my role and generally do well but if I lose my health insurance my life can be measured in months. It's a stressor that is hard to describe.

I wrote[0] something similar to the first part of this post a while back for one of the AoC 2019 puzzles. However, it didn't strike me that you can represent each frame as a set and use the difference to figure out the resulting render commands, that's super neat.

Something strange that I found was: If you redraw only two characters in the terminal, neither iTerm nor macOS's terminal would render the update. In my solution I always rendered some characters redundantly to get around this.

EDIT: I went back and looked at this code again based on the insights from this blog post and figured out a few more issues I had and fixed them.

> dictionaries ignore the umlauts

almost, but not quite, since you can have words that only differ by umlaut; in that case, the one with the umlaut should sort after the one without one, so basically your alphabet now is a, ä, b, c, ... l, m, n, o, ö, p, ..., z. This btw is how modern Japanese dictionaries are sorted, too, where two entries with the only difference of a dakuten (as in しゅ, じゅ) are sorted as shown here.

This site could run on a $5/mo VM without issue. Proxies that charge for bandwidth can get expensive, sure, but that’s a separate issue. Waiting on a response from Zillow/Proxies requires nearly zero cpu on your servers and it should be a background/async process. There’s only ~40k zip codes and only ~10k that remotely matter for even very small towns.

Find a shared proxy provider that doesn’t limit bandwidth. It’s usually about $0.50/mo per IP. Not that any of this really matters, you’ll still get blocked by Zillow. It’s not an IP limit l anyway, it’s a TLS fingerprinting or JS-based fingerprinting issue that is getting you blocked.

It's called an allocation strategy[0], and what you describe is the "market" one. There's also queues / lines and lotteries, for example. In a line system, there's a first come first served principle, and a lottery consists of people signalling their intent to buy, and then the buyers are selected randomly from that pool.
