> Can you help me be smarter?

If you want to become smarter in math: Plan to understand work that some Fields medalists of your choice produced. If available, get a modern textbook treatment of their work (these, in most cases, are better for understandable than their original papers). Of course, you won't understand much at the beginning. So you know in what areas on mathematics you have deep knowledge deficits. So get some good textbooks on these topics to fill these knowledge deficits. Iterate.

If you want to become smarter in physics (the following advice is what a good friend of me gave who I really trust regarding this): Start with the 10 books of "Course of Theoretical Physics" by Lev Landau and Evgeny Lifshitz.

> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_of_Theoretical_Physics

Having read these books should (according to him) give you at least some very basic foundation of physics on which you can then, as a next step, build by reading much more advanced textbooks.

The key part here that both groups are cold-blooded herbivores, so can be fed much more efficiently than both warm-blooded cattle and cold-blooded fish.

You can extract some meat from large beetles, locusts, etc, much like you can from crabs. But even locusts are much smaller than crabs, which makes that onerous.

You can eat larvae which are mostly meat, and some grow large enough, comparable to shrimps. Actually, some people in Africa already eat them for a long time. Would be a harder sell for Europeans, though.

There has always been a tragedy of the commons with these folders, nobody can agree on where a lot of stuff goes.

Should my game saves go in Documents? What about Documents/My Games/Publisher? What about %APPDATA%/Publisher? Hell there's even a few in ~/My Games. Every new game, figuring out where the save data went is an adventure and it's cluttered up every folder it touches. And now for whatever reason everyone is being pushed to put user data in %APPDATA%, which I don't consistently remember how to get to without that shortcut. So who knows!

I just looked up the save data location for Subnautica and it is (I shit you not): %AppData%\..\LocalLow\Unknown Worlds\Subnautica\Subnautica\SavedGames

Ultimately it would be the community deciding to value the PoS fork as "real Ethereum". Something similar happened with ETH and Ethereum Classic, where classic is the unforked version that nobody cares about. A PoW fork will almost certainly exist, but that doesn't mean anyone has to use it and indeed some major players like Chainlink have already announced that they will not support a PoW fork
True, my phrasing was misleading (I used the Ethereum terminology, where a validator is not just any node that validates the chain, but one that participates in consensus). Edited my comment accordingly
OK, your updated description is

> 1) give users an overview of and feedback about their activity, 2) create effective and evidence-based interventions, and 3) improve learning outcomes and engagement.

...which is product telemetry; on the technical side you want someone who knows how to use GTM or mixpanel or (any of dozens of other competitor tools) to track what users are doing in your app, and on the analytics side you want someone who knows how to interpret that data and create meaningful interventions or product changes as a result

The first part is relatively simple, any developer can figure out how to install one of these tools and start logging events. The second part probably needs an education SME who can take that data and do something meaningful with it, or a strong product lead (who would look at it more from a features-and-workflows point of view than from an educator point of view, different paths to maybe similar results).

Neither of those people would be who you'd want involved in deciding where to store the data or how to access or process it; that's more in the database admin realm.

Your list of objectives here, though:
> - faster development
> - happier junior devs: they demand more guidance in the given area
> - better product, measured by usage, referrals and learning progress

The first two are completely unrelated to the above: the first is more about measuring cycle time, velocity, all that fun scrum/agile stuff; the second is ensuring that your junior devs have good mentors and managers. The third one is more of a restatement of the product telemetry goals.

Longwinded way of agreeing with many of the other responses you're getting: the reason you're having a tough time coming up with a reasonable job title is that you're describing at least four unrelated jobs.

(I'm not currently in edtech but have a long history there, and some in a couple of those unrelated roles; happy to discuss further if you like, I admit partially because I'm curious to see what new startups are doing in that space ;)
I saw your comment and assumed that your first sentence was a terrible exaggeration, given your second sentence.

But holy shit this article is basically just "men are unhappy because men suck. They can be happy again, but only if they decide to stop sucking"
The world has changed a lot since then.

If the crypto crash has demonstrated anything, it's that there's an enormously incestuous relationship between these organizations. We have exchanges running mining operations, market participants investing in crypto mining companies, etc.

A massive economic implosion in the mining community is going to have knock-on effects throughout the ecosystem, and I can imagine market participants not wanting that to happen.

In the end I suspect you're right, but I don't think it's safe to say that only the miners are interested in preserving the status quo, and I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that a major PoW-based fork won't live on and divide the ecosystem.
It sounds like you need to build a big list of all the things you're not certain about AND all the assumptions you've already made, and shop them around the people who DO have the domain knowledge, and ask them to "make sure all this makes sense", be up-front and humble about your lack of domain knowledge, and you should do just fine.

Can you code or are you looking for a non-coding role?

If you can code, the path back into tech from a lost decade is pretty straightforward - practice up on coding interviews, spam enough companies with resumes to get interviews, then do well on the interviews. If you can ace a coding interview then people will overlook time in your past that you spent unemployed or working for failed companies.

If you can't code and don't want to then I'm not really sure what to advise. It depends on what sort of job you want, exactly.

Misaligned incentives.

If you align with the incentive, you'll be properly escorted through the red carpet like the rockstar programmer you are.

We have surely lost our grace to make a little more money in the process. The generation that was raised with these normalcies are now the ones recruiting & hiring which make it the new normal.

I don't tolerate ghosting, especially when I make a final round. I follow-up until I hear an answer such as "we went with another candidate". If people waste my time, I will be asking for theirs. I just can't believe it has become just as normal at the end as it is the beginning. It has burnt many bridges of "I definitely don't want to work there in the future".
Hey, if you’re happy with what you’re using, that’s great. I’ve put hacks or modified OSes on various Kindles over the years, used DeDRM for Calibre, and very much had a solid experience.

I also have a Remarkable 2 and a Boox Note Air that are obviously much more hackable.

I’ve reviewed many Kobo devices over the years. I do find them second-rate compared to what you can get from the Kindle line. That's my honest opinion. That isn’t me feeling insecure about my decision (I am an e-reader enthusiast and have reviewed dozens of devices and have the money to buy whatever device I want. I think Sony made the best devices if I’m really being honest, and they shut down their storefront over a decade ago and barely sell any units now), it’s my personal opinion and I said “I’ve always seen it as” — I didn’t declare that as fact. You disagree, which is fine!

I’m glad we have a choice of things. I still stand by my opinion that if I’m going to be tied down into an ecosystem, I’d rather be tied down to the one with the most books. And where I live, that’s Amazon.
In Australia all prices include GST (equivalent of VAT) but invoices typically show how much the GST component is, which seems to achieve both goals. Plus everyone just knows GST is 10% and applies to almost everything except food and a few essentials. So there's no hiding the cost of government.
Can you back up that claim about strategic bombing being a war crime? Also, do you understand that a war crime only applies between signatories of a treaty and that a nation that is not part of that a sovreign nation has no obligation to follow any authority or rule outside of itself else it wouldn't be a sovreign nation?

Civilian deaths are justified when war is justified. There is no such thing as a clean war or a "genteleman's war" as the brits call it. The idea of rules in war is a western european invention. Outside of that war historically meant murder, rape and pillaging by the victor. Are you familiar with the nanjing massacare by the Japnese? That's their idea of war, ripping out babies with a bayonet from pregnant women and making people beg for death as they force them to rape their own family members and hunt them like animals. The very fact that you think actions can be unjust or just after you started waging war shows you are only looking at it from a western/modern perspective. This is why afghanistan and vietnam were lost by the US. As a democracy the people's naive opinion of war was the ultimate cause of defeat. Even genocide is a modern post worldwar2 invention. Trough most of human history if the other guys won there is a chance they will kill all your people if they don't keep them for raping and enslavement. That is why when your guys get a chance they won't even consider the concept of rules only victory. War itself is a horrible and unjustifiable thing, it does not suddenly become just and fair because a you are killing a conscripted child with a uniform. Soldiers are human and civilians are participants in war by the mere fact that their economic output us being used to support the military by way of taxation. What is justifiable is avoiding war to begin with and changing your own governmenr even at the cost of a civil war so that it never becomes the agressor in war (coughiraq*cough).

The fact is you need one side to declare war before the other and regardless of who wins it is that first side that is responsible for the entire unjust and cruel outcome of a war. And as a sovreign nation, the people are responsible for the government they pay taxes to and tolerate when it declares war first on another country.

Most likely this is an already existing design, which is rarely used because of something that makes it impracticable on a bigger scale.

If you tow heavy trailers, you need the vehicle in front to be heavier than the towed object for stability. By the time you are buying 3/4 ton or a 1-ton vehicle, fuel consideration is secondary. When loaded, you are going to have terrible mileage anyway. I own a Ford Escape Hybrid commuter car, a 4.2L V6 F-150 with 8' bed for light truck duty, and a 7.5L V8 F-350 for heavy towing with a 12' box. I also have enough land to store all these vehicles and I bought them broken and cheap.

Regular cab pickups exist and they get reasonable mileage these days. You can get combined 22mpg in an F-150 2.7L v6. It's a bigger truck because it is designed to tow 5000lbs and carry 2000lbs in the bed in its smallest configuration. If you launch boats or operate on wet construction sites, you need 4x4. Why? Your rear wheels will be on a slippery boat ramp. If you don't have 4x4, your rear-wheel drive truck's front wheels are useless and your truck can become a submarine by sliding into water.

It is difficult to buy a new truck with an 8' bed that's not a full-size truck. You need to in general look for a fleet vehicle. However, vans exist. My Grand Caravan minivan converts into a cargo van and fits 4x8 with gate closed. It's dead at the moment and so I got an F-150 to tow it home and drive around until I fix it.

So, if you want an 8' bed in a pickup, you are getting a minimum of a 1/2 ton truck. If you don't need one that long, 6' beds are available on smaller trucks. Your other option is to trailer something since they have 3500lbs towing capacity. 6' bed is perfectly usable for 8' loads with a bed extender.

So, why can't you get an 8' bed in a smaller truck? They are prone to getting overloaded. There's the legend of the immortal Ford Ranger that work much harder than they should. 20 sheets of 3/4" plywood is 1200lbs and that will fit inside a truck bed. Unless you have that 1800-2000lbs capacity, you'll overload it. Now, consider the weight of drywall, cement etc... Anything related to 4x8' items can unintentionally overload a small truck's rated payload capacity relatively easily.

Do you need an off-road 4x4 3/4 ton truck, which are huge and tall, for city driving? You do not. I need my 1-ton truck for towing a car trailer weighing more than 5000lbs. However, it's only driven when when I have to tow something that heavy.
I have twice now built in-house low code interfaces for companies. A recurring problem is when the same product manager who requested the low code interfaces turns around and created a bunch of stories that go beyond the limits of said interface. It's like they ask me to build a high performance racing car and then on race day they bring me to an off road dirt trail.

> the main thing stopping you is not government oppression, it's the fact that a majority of voters want you to not do that

Do you really think that a majority of voters would want somebody to be arrested for a post like this? If we're going to automatically assume that all government actions are simply what the "majority of voters" wanted, then nothing the government does can ever be wrong.
At the most recent RustConf William Brown spoke about how OpenSUSE deals with Rust[1]. If I remember correctly from his talk they started doing something very similar to Debian and then eventually settled on "just use rustup". I wish I had taken better notes because there was more nuance to the history there but I think they'll release the videos of the talks soon.

You can do a lot of things on your own and you may even be successful at it but there are so many roadblocks intentionally put in your way. If you don't have the expertise to file an application paying someone else to counsel may be prudent. If you do have the expertise you'll probably make more being hired to file than the actual patent filer.

I saw it decline over the last year at my employer. In 2021, the recruiting team and I were all on the same page about letting candidates know the decision within a day either way. In 2022 there was some desire to do that, but the recruiting team lost their most senior people and became very understaffed for a while, so it often took a while to get notice sent.

In 2021 my recruiting partners were cool with me moving candidates through stages, which triggered automated notification emails for the candidates. In 2022 I didn't have the permissions for that. Not sure how that all happened, but there was definitely a lack of an ATS admin of some sort.
