Thank you. You have provided a perfect example of the problem (or part of it).

You are so deep into the indoctrination that it is making you imagine things I never said AT ALL. All of the above is made up. All of it.

This thing has turned into a horrific cult. People stopped thinking and questioning everything and go “all in”, no matter what.

This is like my three dogs being triggered into barking by a random noise in the house. Five minutes later, they are still barking and have absolutely no clue why. Same thing.

Climate change and global warming are as real as can be. And, yes, absolutely, humanity bent the curve. No doubt about that at all. And, no, we can’t fix it, save the planet or any of that horseshit. We just can’t.

It takes the entire planet about 50K to 100K years to reduce atmospheric CO2 by 100 ppm. This, using an unimaginably large amount of energy and resources (think 100K years of planetary scale solar energy and you have a starting point).

We actually have people and politicians talking about “saving the planet” in 30 to 50 years. The only reason the scientific community isn’t laughing at them is that they have careers to protect. Nobody dares tell the emperors the clothes are not there.

And yet these people are talking about “saving the planet” 1000x to 2000x faster than nature could. I am not sure we could even calculate the energy and resources that would require.

It’s like believing you can stop a car 1000x faster without destroying the road, the car and turning everything in it into mashed potatoes. And, on top of that, believing this could be achieved while violating the most fundamental laws of Physics.

Conservation of Energy: You cannot fix anything with less energy than it took to create the problem. If you really want to understand, start there.

> All major banks require app-based authentication [...] A handful maaaay still allow you to do banking via physical cardreader verification [...]

Uhm no... I can personally attest to at least Barclays and Natwest allowing you to use a cardreader + website, no apps needed, all online services available through website. Those are 2 of the top 4 largest banks in the UK, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a similar story for the rest. I imagine they would get in pretty deep legal trouble if they forced people to use smart phones.

Just because you don't try to use stuff without an app doesn't mean it doesn't exist anymore, I don't have a smart phone - life is good in the UK.

It's not that any one of them is wrong. It's overdoing them, or doing them all at once to the detriment of the others.

What we need is an time-bombed open source license, that allows a limited exclusivity period for the author during which they can charge for the software. After that time expires, say 3 years, the software reverts to a free shareable license, that anyone can fork into their own commercial, 3-year time bombed projects.

Dangle the carrot and let working people make a living, but force them to give back and prevent them from building closed source proprietary empires fueled by vendor lock-in.

There is a certain type of software, for example professional tools use by non-programmers - graphic editors - where traditional open source models, support contract or volunteer developers, can't work. If you won't be able to charge for copy, such software will never be written in an open variant.
Thanks for your question! I am not super familiar with Private Hub, but I envision companies wanting their own networks (which don't necessarily have to be on-prem) for many reasons. This allows for fine tuning the network on company/team code idioms, lower latency, and even fine tuning for very company specific applications (say translating their APIs from one language they develop in to all other languages they support).

It's like people who spend so much time optimizing their perfect productivity system that it doesn't leave any time for doing the things. Their entire life is about managing the productivity system.

Talking about the work !== doing the work. 9 times out of 10 you're better off doing something, anything, than worrying about productivity. Go do stuff.

Doing every productivity hack and good habit in something like Ferris's Tools of Titans is literally a full time job if not more.

I have the same critique for note taking porn.
These days there is the similarly general-purpose VSCode and competitors, so this particular angle holds no water.
Wow. This is literally poison for the mind and soul.
Bugatti can only exist in it's current position because it is the halo marque of the Volkswagen group, it is almost certainly a company that loses money given the extremely limited market to which they target and the amount of investment and development that goes into their products. I think it's reasonable to think that the various bankruptcies of the prior companies which bore the name are emblematic of it being unable to exist by itself.

EDIT: I've just realised that VW spun off Bugatti - my comment is no longer valid.

33 trillion would be more than the current US debt. It'd be more than 10 times the market cap of the most valued company. It'd be more than the combined market cap of the 100 most valued companies globally (seems to be at around 32 trillion for all of them).

I wish that this article had focused more on the "how to" aspect of this problem and less on the "what" part. It feels a little muddied between trying to explain the problem space (researchers re-using code) and the "steps" involved (write clear code + docs, use Git).

As somebody that runs a semi-popular Open Source project[0], I am very aware of the painstaking task of taking a "hacky script on my machine" and turning it into something public that others can not only use, but trust enough to _depend_ on too.

Here is a rough checklist of tasks that come to mind:

- Write a Readme with a description of what the project is (help Google index it for future search)

- Publish a Docker image that can build the whole project and produce a binary or run the server (this is a massive PITA to get setup -- once you do this, setting up CI becomes very easy)

- Ideally there is a Docker image with a small POC app too (which is often more useful that docs are imo)

- Put the project into Awesome Lists so that people will actually find it (also helps with SEO)

- Add a license to the repo and, if you really want people to trust it, add license headers to every file (I see _so many_ projects without even a LICENSE file. Without this, it's illegal to use the code at all!)

Beyond all of that, Docs help a lot too, as does a "legit" looking website, but you can get away with pretty crappy docs if you do all of the above.

There's nothing wrong in it, if taken lightly and in a healthy positive manner.

I think he's parodying the extreme fixation with one's productivity.
I don't doubt that, I'm sure 50% of people will check the option thinking it'll just block spam. The problem is that blocking robocalls entirely would block legitimate calls that they're not aware of until it'll cause pain and frustration down the line.

Most people do want fraud notifications from their bank, notifications from their utilities about maintenance, notifications that their kid's school is closed today, a call back from customer service when they ask for one, etc. But nobody would think or even have the ability to know about this when checking your "block all robocalls" option, and now you have created a new problem.

If you give people a footgun, they will use it, and they will blame whoever came up with the idea. This is why nobody will do what you are asking.
I found a hand written manuscript about lambda calculus that was bound in something that looked like it was from the 50s.
Realistically, there’s not much emacs can’t do, including integrating with copilot[1]. I think it’s niche isn’t system administration, but people who have the time, energy, and interest to really invest in their tools. Its configurability is second to none, and it’s not going anywhere. Emacs will still be around long after vscode is forgotten, and it’s nice to know that the time I spend learning my editor won’t go to waste when some big corp decides to up and leave, or the programming zeitgeist moves on to the shiny new thing.

Interesting article! We definitely do need a way for AIs to incorporate data over time into its training. As someone who's interested in AI but by no means anywhere near an expert in it, I don't know how to make that happen, but current AI is basically like the main character from 50 First Dates.
You don't have to use GUI with both TC and DC. Its a matter of configuration.

One important thing I do is set fuzzy filter on so that when I type in folder it selects file/folder I want quickly and ENTER will do the rest. Hotkeys are a thing too. I never use mouse with them.
> TikTok is not a social network

I mean... it's made up of people "socializing", just through videos.

People dancing to trends, doing duets.

"hey what's your tiktok so I can see what you post/who you follow/what you like/what defines you as a person socially partially"

It for sure has a social aspect.

It's kind of splitting hairs to say it isn't a social network. I agree. It isn't Facebook. I'm not catching up with relatives in the DMs of TikTok.

But scrolling through "people" and what they post certainly does feel social. People can build a brand for themselves (good or bad).

You can interact by commenting + tagging / @ mentioning users, that can lead to jokes/followup videos, etc.

Trends/dances/sounds/songs can go viral. What makes something viral? People thinking it's viral.

Sounds like social/society to me.

This makes a great case for community-based labs. There have been some startups doing this for mechanical engineering, at least. A big issue is the monopoly over labwork by the university system and then industry. The first requires your money, the second requires that you give money to the first.
Ok, so maybe it's 80k hours across a 45 year career, then. What difference does that make? 80k is still a reasonable approximation for the total time one has available for one's career. Of course people's individual circumstances will vary, but that's not the point.

I agree with your comment but I think it is out of place here.

I skimmed the article and it doesn't seem to suggest apple is in trouble, or that it is dead, it is merely commenting on why certain revenue figures are lower year over year.

In fact, it seems explicitly to convey that the sky is not falling.
> PRC's narrow economy

Come on. There is not a less "narrow" major economy on the planet than China's. This is just silly.

IDEs have notoriously bad file managers. I havily use VSCode CTRL P but that is when I know exactly what I want. If not, I need visuals and nothing beats good file manager.
Which use case are you referring to? You can't connect via SSH to the GitHub Actions worker, it is behind NAT.
> If a company doesn't show growth, it is quickly labelled as "in trouble" or "dead". Why? Why can't we have an Apple that is the size it is now, but concentrates on making better products?

The company is owned by shareholders who want growth or a massive dividend. If AAPL can't grow then return profits to shareholders through stock buybacks or increased dividends.

> I run my own business and growth is not my #1 goal.

If you own your own business then do what you think is right for you. As an AAPL shareholder all I want is increased value in my shares.

I LOVE THIS!

I have been using Autocad since v9, GeneriCAD prior to that.

I have always wanted some aspects of this.

Some feature suggestions to muse:

* The arc selection/conversion is great. Maybe add FILLET and CHAMFER gestures?

* An ortho projection capability for planes that can be applied to each plane for the slicer?

* Offest (CTRL and then swipe through a line in the direction of the offset, then prompted for distance input or simply click at the point you want the offset to be placed - and it dimensions the dist

* CTRL, SHIFT, ALT clicking to select different primitives/ortho constraints / scale uniform etc..

* PNG import for background.

* SVG output.

* Color fills

* Grid + Snap

This seems like the best thing to give a 4 year old to start teaching them about CAD.

The earlier you can get this in front of kids-with-context-bias... it would be great to see how they assimilate the gestures.

I LOVE the start of this project. Kudos.
What are the specs of your development machines?

Have a link? Curious, but seemingly hard to find.
Sorry, first you should consider your language. "Holds no water" is way to strong, especially as it is absolutely wrong. VSCode is nice but a far cry from the abilities of Emacs. And while it does somewhat support a lot of languages, setting it up for a new language is way more work implementing a complex protocol compared to Emacs.

Maybe it has become better, but for a while I looked into it as it was popular for Go editing. Unfortunately, there is way to much predetermined flow built in, so Emacs makes it the way better Go editor for me. Back then, there was even no key binding for compiling the current file.

And as I said, the language coverage is much worse than Emacs, as it is its hackability.
It may be that Apple does more of the "inspiration" part of the work and Amazon does more of the "transpiration" part. There is software that is great on the outside but crap on the inside and vice versa. The last 80% of quality (after the first 80%) come from testing, discipline and other such such unsexy things.
Anyone who wants to go into p5 for games or visualizations would be well advised to either read Dan Shiffman's book (as another poster mentioned) or check out his YouTube channel, and code along to his 10 minute challenges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17WoOqgXsRM&list=PLRqwX-V7Uu...
I think there is truth to the idea that someone who is actually implementing these systems, even half-heartedly, is at least putting in some effort towards whatever their goals is. However, I don’t think the following is so clear-cut.

> who is more likely to close their browser and do whatever they feel is most important? I know who I would bet on.

Immersing oneself in productivity lifehacks is often a good way to feel productive without actually being so. So I don’t think either person stands to have a greater chance than the other towards getting back to work.
That is the goal of the Business Source License[0] which has been gaining popularity recently. It's still a bit tricky to "adopt" into organizations because it is not usually on the "approved license list", but it's a pretty good middle-ground imo. A lot of companies are starting to move behind it like CockroachDB, MariaDB, Couchbase, and many others.

I'm less of a fan of another license that's gaining popularity too, the "Server-Side Public License" (SSPL)[1], with projects like Airbyte and MongoDB because it doesn't have the "time bomb" aspect that BSL has. If there was a license that were in the middle between the two (SSPL but w/ a time bomb) I'd be pretty stoked.

Until then though, we'll just have to live with custom "Additional Use Grants" in BSL to carve out who can use it.

DC is very complite replacement of TC, I was using TC (in advanced way, I know most of its numerious features) for decades and switched to DC without missing anything.
ftps isn't an interesting widely used protocol, its legacy. You probably meant sftp, a subsystem for SSH which got nothing to do with FTP or FTP over SSL (ftps).

Both Konqueror (later Dolphin) and Nautilus have supported mounting remote SSH for ages. Yeah, its nice. On Windows you can do same with Dokan, and on Linux and macOS CLI with Fuse. I mount a USB stick on Linux with CLI, and I mount a remote SSH with CLI. Tiling window manager and endless terminals. Tho its possible to make KDE tiling, too.

For those who like Sublime Text (command palette) and dual pane file manager I can recommend the cross-platform fman.

Interesting perspective. What were you doing during the initial semi-helpless "why-does-this-hurt-so-much" phase of your emacs journey?

I find that people who take a slower long-term approach tend to be the ones that have a good experience. The moment someone really "needs" to get something done with emacs is usually when they shelve it for something more intuitive or more powerful out of the box.

I found a bunch of books and photo albums sitting out for garbage collection.

Valuing hard work, reading and trying to be financially successful is something completely unrelated to trying to do 18 hour work days, skimming several books a day, and running the hamster wheel off the peg and into the frying pan.

I don't think the parent is saying that the professor annotated the book, as that probably doesn't make any sense.

As I interpreted their story, the professor had a habit of asking questions and then answering them himself, if nobody offered an answer. Students wrote down those answers in the margins of the book.

Over time, the book collected a lot of these notes from different students.
Do you think that in the hypothetical absence of the formal education system, the vacuum would be filled by the collaboration of a likeminded community? Social communication among groups with common interest is easier now than it has ever been, particular across vast geographies. This is a least one positive effect of social media, notwithstanding all its negative societal impacts.
