The loan idea might work, but it might not. Generally big corporations are better at fulfilling criteria for eligibility than small businesses are (they can afford larger legal departments), and it might just drive up prices without increasing supply. That seems to be what happened with state-backed loans for higher education in the US, for example.

The price-controls idea would create shortages, at least locally; Mouser and Digi-Key, prohibited from allocating scarce parts to those with more willingness to pay, would allocate them according to other criteria, such as customers with the largest established volume. Companies in other countries would have a major edge because they'd have access to distributors who weren't at risk of having their stock confiscated. The upshot would be that companies in whatever country instituted those price controls would be unable to compete on the global market because they couldn't buy on Aliexpress. (I've seen this kind of thing a lot up close and personal because I live in Argentina.)
Where death is concerned, you and yours first. I'm not that afraid of dying but I'd much rather not go through the experience. Or have my mom and dad die. Is that so bad?
Rent is not “gas and groceries”.

The U.S. isn’t building enough housing. Especially in places people want to live. This is a multi decade problem and almost fully explains the migration to southern cities.

The marginal rise in gas, as the OP claimed, has nothing to do with why credit card rates are soaring. And the OP’s dismissing job numbers is also incorrect, because wages are increasing and that is playing a huge role in offsetting the pandemic/Ukraine war related inflation.
With GRPC, you lose the ability to introspect the data on-the-wire. You lose the ability to create optimized data formats for YOUR application (who said you have to use JSON?) Most people can’t implement REST correctly, so it has been a shitshow for the last 20 or so years, GRPC isn’t a magic bullet, it just forces you to solve problems (or helps you to solve them) that you should have been doing in the first place. You can do all of these things without GRPC, there is no power it grants you that can’t be done better or at all in your own libraries and specs.

Listing all packages is a bit of a weak spot. The entire package set is described in a lazy, functional language and listing or searching it requires evaluating the entire thing. A normal build will only require evaluating a small subset of the entire package list. `nix search` should have caching of results but it still requires evaluation to be populated.

Some of them are surely happy and successful. I'd like to think (no citation whatsoever), that a nontrivial portion of them have the mindset of "I'm currently building this empire and then I will reap the benefits of this vast wealth". They are not happy per se in the moment, but have some future vision of happiness away from the grind of being "successful". At some point, they realize that they don't have that much time left to actually enjoy life outside of amassing money/possessions, so they get obsessed with extending their life.

I don't know how uncharitable I'm being, but sometimes the argument that death is the great idea palate cleanser, just comes across as a way people attempt to come to terms with mortality. Maybe it is a valid argument, but as you've pointed out, there's plenty to suggest the opposite might also be true -- death/ageing cuts down brilliant minds before they have a chance to do their best work.

>>It's a good thing for society and humanity that people die.

And once upon a time 40% of children died before the age of 5. That had been the norm throughout the entirety of human history, and indeed throughout the entire history of all animals.

Things will change and we will look back upon the times when people only lived to 70 years as the dark ages, and the justifications given for this brutal mortality as a coping mechanism.

The anti-longevity position doesn't stand up to scrutiny. Just think: we locked down billions of people to prevent the spread of COVID, mostly because of the toll it takes on those over the age of 70, who died at a rate 5 percent upon infection, yet aging is going to kill the vast majority of those over the age of 70 within a decade, and the resources going toward stopping it are infinitismal in comparison to those spent trying to stop COVID.

I think that the enlightenment phase of Lisp is different for everyone, so you're going to get some varied responses.

Learning Lisp certainly improved the way I write code in other languages and moved me to a more functional style of programming. So while I don't regularly code in Lisp, I do use a lot of concepts that can be traced back to Lisp.
I find it curious and depressing that the solution to a problem like this are movies tv series and books.

>This means tetrachromacy is only possible for most women, who have two X chromosomes, and men with Klinefelter syndrome, who have two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome. Therefore, most men, who only have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, cannot be tetrachromats.

>Also, even if someone has four types of cone cells, it does not mean that they will automatically be a tetrachromat. If a person does have four cone types, but has not been immersed in a wide variety of colours from an early age, they might not have developed the capability to harness their power. Scientists currently believe that around 12% of women have four types of cones, but that the overwhelming majority of those people do not have actual tetrachromatic abilities.

More generally, the main trait that differentiate humans from any other animal (including apes) is the ability to look into the future, which makes us capable of planning ahead and recognizing the significance of history, but also leads to us knowing that we will one day die, which, combined with the self-preservation instinct that every animal has, leads to a very bad feeling. So we spend our lives either doing our best not to think about it, or making up and (trying to) believe in stories about what happens after death (=religion).

But resistance to outliers is the point because people don't take billionaires inflating the per capita GDP as "wow, this country has a problem with inequality", they take it as "wow, this country is getting richer".

With GDP per capita, a few oil billionaires and a very small class of well-paid oil workers make Equatorial Guinea look like a middle income country. Median GDP reveals that the average person there lives on less than $2 a day, because Equatorial Guinea is also the most unequal country in the world. But clearly it's more representative to class Equatorial Guinea as very poor (median income) than moderately wealthy (per capita GDP/mean income) or rich (per capita GDP PPP)

Median income isn't perfect because it can hide things like one country having 5% living in extreme poverty and one country having 25% but with typical real world income distributions, an average not massively skewed upwards by how rich the top 10% or 1% is gives you a much more accurate perspective on which country most people have higher incomes in.

I would say academics are just people, and in many cases they want to be employed and successful.

At the moment, while the system is very bad in many ways, it used to work (in my opinion, I haven't done proper research into this) because:

* People who run "good" journals want their journal to be considered good, so they publish good papers.

* People want to get into "good" journals, so they want to write good papers that will be accepted. The existence of these papers is then used as evidence for promotions and grants.

* Academics want to read "good" journals, so they get their University to pay for a subscription to get physical copies in the library.

Previously this cycle held reasonably well -- it's been broken by the reduced cost of online journals, and journals wanting higher payments.

I think a good future system needs to (somehow) recreate this "virtuous cycle" -- making reviews as important as journals could be a good idea, I could imagine following a reviewer I thought was excellent, and a group of reviewers could create their own "virtual journal".

I would personally trust "Person X who I know thinks this paper is good" much more than "100 people thought this paper was good, 40 thought it was bad, so +60".

I can't really comment on the article but I can comment on taking a NAD supplement. I take NAD every day and magnesium L threonate every few days (whenever I feel like a need a mental boost). The NAD really makes me feel better. I have no idea what it does but when I don't take it I have more difficulty getting up early in the morning. NAD, magnesium and zinc. Those are my basic supplements and I always take them. Give it a go!

For commenting or forums the best solution IME is to require moderation review for all new users before showing the posts anywhere. You can also add a super simple "CAPTCHA" that is just a text field with a question easily answerable to any human looking at your site (e.g. name of $thing that your site is about without mentioning $thing in the question itself) to reduce load from non-targeted automated spam.
The old compilers optimized the switch/case, just not as well as something from 2022, and there were lots of edge cases too. And limited registers, and small caches and so forth. Plus, these were CPUs that were at the boundary of what could be done in terms of emulation of another CPU and everything else about the device being emulated too. Today we have the advantage of far more advanced compiler technology and far more advanced CPU technology that runs crazy fast, and a greater understanding of how to emulate the machines and best practices for creating those emulators. 25 years ago, not so much. The PS2 and the XBOX were the first consoles where you could just take MAME or the 2600 VCS emulator I wrote and compile it to the target console and "it just worked." I ported MAME to the PS2 and ran six different games on a tumbling cube, and then MAME to the XBOX shortly afterwards, and Dolphin emulator on XBOX and PS2 as well - though again, smacking up against what that generation of consoles could realistically emulate.
I don't think that tracking two numbers is too much more work than one. Just ensure that the other is lower than the first one at the end of the month or what is the relevant period.

For me Lisp enlightenment was when I realized everything is lambda all the way down (except of course for lists and atoms). I mean we don't really need all the various fancy let, let*, defun expressions to do programming. let, defun are all just abstractions on top of LAMBDA expressions. That means that we don't need some 30 odd keywords to bootstrap a language like we do in C. We can bootstrap a language implementation with some 8 or so special forms and everything else can be defined in terms of those. Isn't that beautiful?

>If you don’t want a daily standup it’s because you don’t trust your team to be able to help you

Next up in "Holy generalizations Batman": if you don't use dark mode religiously, you're a terrible programmer.

I don't like standups because I trust people to capable of asynchronous communucation and independent, not the other way around. Universal standups are exactly the bandaid I expect from teams unable to figure things out themselves (excluding situations teams want it themselves, hence 'universal').

Let's stop treating people as 'deficient until proven otherwise' for not agreeing with a barely supported methodology, please.

For me, it was the realization that with LISP, you don't really build much of anything because you're caught in the blinding light of beauty, and the perfect program is the one that never gets written.
I remember years ago some of the work in trying to find someone with tetrachromatic vision. Like in this article, they tried to "create shades of paint that could only be distinguished by a machine — or a tetrachromat."

It didn't work. While the researcher couldn't tell them apart, some people could. Including a man with (I presume) XY chromosomes, so couldn't be tetrachromatic. He was trained in some sort of visual art or design, which connects with the training aspect mentioned in the article.

He also had to look closely at the colors, while it sounds like this new test is distinct enough to tetrachromats that response times should be significantly different.
Are you genuinely asking what is the difference between having to occasionally fix an outage/alert from the comfort of your house vs having to consistently sit *in the office* dealing with all kinds of non-urgent task like answering emails, reporting bugs, writing code, attending meetings, responding to chat pings, etc with the expectation that you will be doing that for the entire 9 to 5 duration of your shift before you are allowed to go back home to your family?

The sound is very reminiscent of the old video game arcades. Just about every game cabinet was pumping out some soundtrack and game sounds like this, so the entire place had a certain acoustic character which was very unique. I'd hate it now with my older sensitive ears, but as a kid it was a siren song.
I've had a similar impression in my previous company, this was a large multi-national bank who proclaimed they want to go agile. Spared no expense in hiring agile coaches and scrum masters.

It even went as far as some people having two standups a day, one with their own scrum team, and another with the "leaders" of other scrum teams.

Our scrum ceremonies were always stretched and highly moderator, except for the one that mattered, the retrospective. This was always hijacked by the agile coach, who pushed his agile believes and wouldn't listen to the actual developers who were trying to improve the process.

Obviously following agile to the letter, caused a lot of frustration amongst developers, and lead to almost every project failing. But at least the coaches got paid well.
I always find standups degenerate into status update meetings no matter how hard I try. The antipattern keeps crawling back.

Not sure if it's a quirk of human nature or the protestant work ethic or whatever but the only time I've managed to inhibit it was by being the most senior person in the room and repeatedly pulling rank.

An ordinary manager's presence will pretty much guarantee it happens and make it impossible to avoid.

Whatever the next iteration of the agile cult is I hope it somehow manages to account for human nature and the nature of typical organizations.
Hopefully this is not just some kind of summertime slowdown, but a real trend.

Insofar as longevity is correlated with reducing suffering due to chronic pain and old-age disease, I think it's great.

But there is one problem with longevity: Boredom is a thing. When you are a toddler even a small piece of paper or a string can excite you. But then you get bored and you need to find something else. I am almost 40 years old now and pretty much all my drive in life is my two kids. If I didn't have them I doubt I would find reason to get up from bed every morning. If I had to live forever or for a very great number of years I believe life would become a burden. It's always been possible to be old and sick and thus unable to do things you crave. But I fear one day it will be possible to be young (in body) and healthy and unwilling to do things because you've done them all before too many times.
I’ve only worked for two companies in my career as a data scientist. The first one was a large, non-tech company, and we had mountains of “process”—Jira, Agile, stand-ups, training sessions on scrum, etc. I found it difficult to be productive, and I think my teammates did as well.

The second company (that I still work for) is a large tech company, and there is almost zero prescribed process (at least for the teams I’ve been on; can’t speak for the entire company). Counterintuitively, everyone seems to be vastly more productive. In terms of process, the most we might do is to put together a loose project roadmap in a Google Doc or something, but that’s about it. There are no stand-ups. Superfluous meetings are discouraged. I have a weekly 1:1 with my manager to ensure my work and goals are aligned with the team priorities. It’s really nice because I feel like I actually have room to breath and get things done rather than attempt to “have something ready” for the standup the next day.

At my first company, I arrived there as early as I could in the morning and left after exactly 8 hours. At my current company, I don’t have that desire to finish up the work day as quickly as possible. Although that might also have something to do with the second company rewarding performance and impact much more heavily than the first company—hard to tell how all of these different incentives influences employee psychology and behavior.
