Unfortunately this is usually plotted as momentum vs coupling, which, if you wave your hands around the uncertainty principle enough, is sort of the reciprocal of the same thing.

It’s a convenient distraction for people in industries that depend on externalized costs, and it indulges those prone to self-righteousness and judgment (e.g., people who moralize their transportation and diet). Heavy industry and pseudo-environmentalists are unusual bedfellows.

I distinctly remember when Teslas became popular, the reaction from environmental types was often frustration because apparently environmentalism is supposed to be about sacrifice and yet Tesla is allowing the unwashed masses to help save the planet. Similarly, when debating climate policy, some of the strongest opposition to carbon pricing would come from self-professed environmentalists who were repulsed by the idea of aligned incentives—environmentalism is a
bout rejecting one’s own interests; if the cheap thing and the environmental thing are the same, how will the True Believer distinguish himself from the unwashed masses? There is a deep attachment to pennywise and pound foolish “personal responsibility” solutions.
Most people I know who use Godot, myself included, find it easier to use than Unity. I don't know why you believe you would be required to "fight the engine." You just need to be at least be willing to understand the idioms and methods of a particular framework and work with it - otherwise why use a framework at all?
No, you need a hard metric like "Accident rate per million miles driven" in order to compare the relative hazard.
Too darn big.
Most physicists who can be bothered to comment do seem to think MOND is extremely ad hoc, in a sense.
Algebra solver, as in solving algebraic equations numerically? The Julia SciML ecosystem has libraries like DeepEquilibiurmNetworks.jl for building neural networks with nonlinear algebraic equation solving as part of the networks (https://deepequilibriumnetworks.sciml.ai/stable/manual/nlsol...).
"Common sense is the best distributed thing in the world, for we all think we possess a good share of it." — René Descartes, Discours de la Méthode (1637) (Or in French: "Le bon sens est la chose du monde la mieux partagée, car chacun pense en être bien pourvu.") In some philosophies, what stands opposite of wisdom is not folly, but common sense. However, it might be possible that neither common sense, nor wisdom will bring you happiness: the former is unable to provide it, the latter is unable to be attained (philo-sophia, an asymptotical wanting of wisdom).
What do you think we should focus on instead?
I have read a lot of comments that appear to be a modification of "I used anki but the accumulation made me drop it".

If you're interested, I've worked in a Spaced Repetition Algorithm where they is no card accumulation, you review whenever you feel like. In order to maximize pleasure.

In the future I'll also configure it to give you subject you "feel" like reviewing at the moment, since pleasure is also associated with memory.

I am a full stack and I use React for the front-end and for me React is not hard. Why? Hear me out. All this talk about k8s being hard is real but not a bad thing. Why? Because our tech and our jobs are hard. Like you said to a non front-end person React from your POV is hard. As much as k8s is hard for a back-end or front-end guy. And that's how you have so many articles about X and Y being so complex and hard, and 90% of the time they are written by people that never really used it and it's not even their job. But then if you ask a front-end dev if he love React and if it's hard for him? At the beginning maybe but now? No. A back-end with Spring/Rails/Next.js... All the same maybe at the beginning but now? No. But try to cross the bridges without being already good at the other stack and this being your daily job; it's always hard.

As a side example I played fighter jet simulators (Falcon BMS, and DCS) and I stopped to play them for a year. Before I could fly and do a full cold start of the F14 [1], the F16, the KA-50, the SU-27 (ok this one is super easy), and I was learning the A10. Now I am looking at all these buttons and I am like: how was I able to do this?? Dang! But when I was into it, it was super easy. That's really the same here. You have the opposite of a honey moon period. At first it's (super) hard, and then it gets super easier and easier and it looks like you are a wizard to others.

And it was the same for me back in the day where people were doing crazy stuff with Mesos. They looked like wizard to me. Then I dived into Mesos, Raft, Peloton, etc... And now it no longer looks so crazy and scary.

I am sure you are doing stuff that look so easy to you but are super hard to others who work on a different part of the stack.

Where some people collide, and disagree about complexity depends on their roles.

If you're a consumer, then yes, it's as complex as you make it. If you keep it super simple you may lose out on some features, but that a reasonable trade-off.

If you're the person responsible for running and maintaining the Kubernetes cluster, then you're kinda out of luck. It honestly not that bad to install, you can do that in an afternoon. Where I find Kubernetes to be exceedingly complex is in debug-ability. I'm not sure there's anyway around that, it's basically a software defined datacenter, with all the complexity that brings... For some of us it's a software defined datacenter, on top of an actual datacenter, just to make things worse.

When I read about a company that just spin up a new Kubernetes cluster, because it's quicker than debugging the existing one, then I get concerned. For running payload, absolutely, just use the subset of the features you're comfortable with and build from there. Still I'd argue that most of us will never have problems large enough or complex enough that Kubernetes is a hard requirement.
I suppose LinkedIn has a feature where you can mark yourself als "open to job offers", I know XING does (yes, it's still alot bigger in Germany, don't ask). If non checking that box would help, no problem.

Most of us would not have such a rational aversion to recruiters if there weren't hundreds of them spamming you with bullshit non-offers "Hey, we just saw you switched jobs this year, maybe wanna switch again before you have settled in?" (not making this up, I've had "hey, how's your 6 month probationary period [as is common] been, are you happy where you are now?"

Even writing "NO I DO NOT WANT A NEW JOB" will help avoid them pestering you. Oh, and if only this was a few (lone) people or a few bad apples in the agencies. No.

I also got contacted by recruiter B of company X while we were actively working with their colleague C to recruit people for our company. We were, until that day.

There are also a handful of them, no matter how often I politely reply "go away, I am not interested, never contact me again", after months at most they come back. The platforms make their money from the recruiters, not from the free users, so reporting them also doesn't work.

It's a bit like saying "not all MLM scheme salespeople are bad", well - 90% are.

I wish I was using hyperbole, but I am not. It's not a real problem, so don't mistake my halfhearted rant as some sort of crusade, but the reality is that after 20 years I only know a small handful of recruiters who are decent and not just opportunistic scumbags, and that sucks.
Ask HN: List of titles and specifications for tech jobs?
As jobs get more and more differentiated, it's getting harder for the "uninitiated" to find the right wording that speaks to the right people. Is there a conclusive list of job titles and specifications one could rely on?

FWIW, I'm looking for someone to lead all engineering efforts wrt to "everything analytics":
- what to measure and where to measure (EDIT: meaning "which actions, e.g. clicks, constitute the start of a specific action? How can we determine that a user stopped for break? etc... more details below!)
- which tools to use
- how to integrate libraries/services
- where to store data
- how to access raw data
- how to process raw data
- how to access processed information

... at a 10-15 person (six developers) Startup.

EDIT: To answer the questions below and specify the role: we're in EdTech, so the data we want to gather is used to 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. More detailed objectives are determined by management and research roles, but they still need to be translated into code – almost like a restaurant owner can tell a chef to make a specific dish, but the chef still needs to know which pan to use.
> when you see a likely worsening climate, rampant inequality for really no good reason

What are you, as an individual able to do about any of that?

Think about it the other way, if you wanted to make it worse could you meaningfully? Could you make the seas rise by even a single millimeter? Probably not.

Now say you wanted to make it better, a single private jet trip for a CEO to visit his mistress will wipe out any gains you have made.

What does your worrying do? Great you aren't "willfully ignorant" but since your ideal future requires a miracle anyway, and you aren't God, it's out of your hands.

You are probably like almost every other person who has ever lived, you don't matter at all. Nothing you do will meaningfully echo throughout history. Once you are gone, nobody will ever say your name again.

What's true about you is probably also true about the human race. The sun will consume the earth eventually, we will either leave this rock, or die on it. Why not enjoy your brief time here?

Well, this is something that is quantifiable I guess (a measurement). And changes must be notable in order to call something a success in that case.

Controversial confusion
—-

I said he was not: “( controversial now ) and ( not before )”. That can be re-written as: “( he is controversial now ) and ( he was controversial before )”.

The logic key is the “and”. It requires both statements to be true. If part of the statement is not true, it makes the entire statement not true.

IE: “( I am a human ) and ( I am god )”. This statement is not true. I am not god. Confusion cleared?

Your flag argument is concerning. One person can make a comment flagged. How is that representative of HN? Why not stick to that logic for me, one person, saying Peterson is not appropriate for any one because he is a bad person? There’s a certain lack of awareness.

A point of hypocrisy is linking to bad articles. I read the second. It doesn’t touch upon my critique of his Kulinski interview. You asked if I had actually seen any of his stuff or just base off what others say. Then follow that up with being “afraid” I’m being duped by listening to others. Then you link to this as your side.

This gets worse because this writer writes like you. They are “concerned” like you were “afraid”. Neither of you are saying your own original ideas. Picking up typical right wing moral panic BS that frequently weakly masks the bigotry behind it.

The article doesn’t say why he’s a benefit to lgbtq people. Why is he a “blessing in disguise”? It doesn’t give a proper argument for him not being against gay marriage. It says he did not answer the person’s question. That means he’s not for gay marriage.
Sure. Is that why Geoff Ralston referred to them as a cockroach, and surmised that everyone else thought they were dead until they pulled the rabbit (acquisition) out of the hat?

My therapist mentioned the same thing to me recently so I suppose it is worth investigating further.

I had never considered it before that, probably due to lack of understanding of what ADD/ADHD is (when I was growing up the stereotype was high energy kids bouncing off the walls and unable to sit still and focus in class, whereas I was low energy, introverted, and had always done well in school and work so it was never a thought).

> I mean, by what measure is rail more expensive?

Your average truck puts out 8 metric tons per axle [1], railroads have to deal with 20-25 tons per axle [2] (and records of 40 tons/axle in Australia [3]). That is an awful lot more force that needs to be distributed into the ground, particularly as trucks usually reach only 80 km/h whereas freight trains run at 120 km/h in Europe [4].

Additionally, road vehicles have way more tolerance for shoddy road conditions - small bumps and potholes won't bother them too much, even at higher speeds, whereas rail vehicles are really, really prone to (deadly) derailments when the track goes bad for whatever reasons.

All of that makes constructing rail way more complex and as a result expensive.

Short term happiness is the wrong goal. The hedonic treadmill is one reason why.

Long term life satisfaction is the correct goal.

For example, having children decreases the former yet increases the latter.

EVs can schedule to charge at night time during low grid strain, it's a trivial matter that can be improved over decades.
Not unexpected.

With the Fed raising interest rates, this is a fairly predictable happening. Higher rates means more expensive houses get put out of reach of the consumer, it trickles down from there.
This is why acceptance is such a key value. Acceptance is both an obstacle to progress and a prerequisite for continued existence. It's the line between Yin and Yang, where the duality of wrong and right is forced to blur.

The article covers this as well: the author claims that studies show that all of those different intelligences correlate, so it is not very useful to categorise them individually.

The thing that is a main driver to "climbing to higher positions" is usually desire and motivation, which is a cultural trait. Intelligence has a high correlation because there are plenty of motivated people across all levels of intelligence, so highly intelligent are better at succeeding at such well-defined problems.

Smartness is sometimes about well-educated or simply experienced and knowledgable. Eg. even if I was more intelligent, I'd trust a medical doctor because they have a vast knowledge and experience that I lack.

Still, the article makes a nice distinction between well- and poorly-defined problems. It's definitely going in the right direction, so go and have a read!

> it's about the integrity of democracy itself.

Oh please, this has nothing to do with Democracy. Democracy literally means citizen-power, while this enforcement is removing the power of citizens to come to consensus on which money they want to use. The day there's a fair election at the federal level on any core economy-related topic, then your argument could begin to have something to stand on, but right now it doesn't. This is strictly shifting power away from citizen into the hands of a few.

Well, my first regular servicing of a Skoda ICE took from 9am to 3pm. The traditional filter and oil change was done quickly but the car got stuck on some firmware update from the factory and they didn't want to interrupt it.
Well, no. You're torturing definitions to fit established right-wing talking points. You affirm the consequent by suggesting that "white, heterosexual men and their paternal nuclear family structures" represent "normal"; you state that They believe "everything is equally arbitrary", but a breath later you suggest that post-modernism makes a value judgement toward an instrumental end, and results in a "*should*". How can both of those concepts be correct?

I think "post-modern", as used here, is a code word for something else that I don't understand. I think one of us must be genuinely misunderstanding something. As your definition seems to rely on the activity of "post modern principals", I think that the next step in the journey of understanding might be returning to school.
It’s not, unless I’ve missed something. You can capture an image of a single window (direct from the compositor), but not video.

What you can do is select a region of a screen to video capture with cmd+shift+5. But that’s capturing from the framebuffer, so it captures whatever’s below the rounded corners as well (and doesn’t capture the window shadow).
The only reason someone is paying more is because it's more crucial/valuable to their needs than the people paying for less. Seems obvious churn would be lower.
This seems to be based on a faulty premise that cars aren't lasting as long as they used to last and that EVs will be more of the same. The video claims this is due to planned obsolescence facilitated by electronics making the car impossible to repair.

I don't believe this is true at all. Battery lifetime aside, cars are very reliable now compared to the past. Multiple studies back this up, but I think most people must anecdotally have noticed fewer broken down cars on the side of the highway and their own cars needing less maintenance and breaking down less often.

Yes, modern cars are often less repairable.

Lack of repairability is sometimes malevolent, but most times it's just a side effect of making things safer and more reliable. For example, engine computers reduce engine wear and prevent knocking, sealed systems leak less, safety systems require sensors in fenders and wing mirrors and crumple zones result in cars being written off. I have had a car that would have suffered a catastrophic engine failure in the past, but thanks to modern sensors and electronics, instead shut itself down, preventing serious damage.

By comparison, my old carburettor car was incredibly easy to repair just using tools in my toolbox, but it always had something going wrong, was a bitch to start in winter and driving in wet leaf conditions was seriously terrifying. My current car is a 2009 petrol with 150k miles and has never had any work outside of the routine service schedule or basic consumables.
There are many people for whom that is true (chiefly the retired). The ones who are physically able generally choose to do something marginally “productive” than continuously smelling flowers. (Perhaps that’s related to what got them to a position to retire, whether a work ethic, other personal mindset, or programming.)
