I agree that this is both more effective and has the benefit of encouraging people to understand others in a deeper level. Taking the time to understand someone else handles stress differently (and has different strengths and weaknesses, preferences, ways of communication, etc.) is a level above just treating people the way oneself wants to be treated.

Anecdotally- I've had many experiences with my mother who adamantly insists she treats others the way she wants to be treated when, in fact, she has a very unique life experience that has generated some specific ideas of how she thinks people should behave, and in treating others the way she wants to be treated she tends to unintentionally generate miscommunication and awkward situations at best, if not sometimes conflicts and harm.
Surely this cannot be an argument for whether something is a legitimate field. Surely there are some scientists somewhere studying the risks of a very risky viruses. At least prima facie, such research would neither be boring or unnecessary.

I think comparing the costs between the 5 year olds in our daycare and the 6 year olds entering first grade is entirely fair.

Our daycare gets more expensive as the child ages - not less.

> The person taking care of a baby (or 4 babies) might need to be much less qualified than an AP physics teacher in high school, but the labor (and liability) costs do not necessarily scale exactly with the minimum qualifications needed to be an AP physics teacher versus a daycare teacher.

And this - this is exactly what I'm contesting. Why is it we're ok paying someone who should be able to teach complex and technical skills to children (high school physics) barely more than a high school grad who is only qualified to tend to infants? Worse - why do we let class sizes balloon to the point where one-on-one interactions are incredibly hard?

One requires considerably more skills, considerably more education, and frankly much more work (and I'm not talking about the one tending the infants). Yet they're expected to effectively teach class sizes of between 25 and 32 (which is the technical max for the state - but I've frequently seen this balloon as high as 45)

Yet the daycare worker is making almost the rate of an intro physics teacher (17/h vs 19/h). And the very top most earners are making only 30/h. Being a manager at a McDonalds is FAR more lucrative (avg of 98k vs the avg physics teacher in GA at 43k). That should be a giant fucking red flag.

The numbers aren't even that far off - There are ~500 McDonalds locations in GA, and ~525 public high schools. Each McDonalds location has ~3 managers (shift manager, assistant manager, store manager) And they all make more than intro physics teachers. (from 50k to ~100k)

When flipping burgers is literally more lucrative... I fail to be compelled by your argument.

>An institution does not become beloved by the public for failing to provide a good standard of care for a long enough time that people become used to it doing so.

Here's how you do it: you pump unsustainable amounts of money into the service over time. This allows you to offer a great service until in the future you can't pump enough money into it anymore. But that's a problem for the future generations. Those future generations were funding the previous generations all the while, but won't get the same benefits themselves.

An ever increasing percentage of GDP is being poured into the UK's NHS. At some point it's going to be too costly and the young generation at that time will have to pay for it, but won't get the same level of service themselves when they're older. They will be the ones left holding the bag.

I don't think there's a politically viable solution to this though. The problem with this model is that you're effectively borrowing from future generations, but the system takes so long to reach actual unsustainability that people will grow up with the feeling that the system is great.
I struggle to think who this is for.

On the home page, the benefits for a full-stack developer is that it sets up a boilerplate for you using Nest, Prisma, GraphQL and with built in auth. However, this just seems like any other boilerplate but without the extra complexity and pricing plans. It's not hard to set these up. Plenty of official documentations for these integrations.

My problem with this approach as a FS developer is that whenever I want to fix nasty issues or do something more customizable, I have to dive into the autogenerated code. In other words, I have to learn how things work anyways. Why not just set it up myself so I know exactly what's going on?

The pricing plan is also a bit confusing. It charges based on the number of developers, IE $200/month for a team of 10 developers. But if you have 10 developers, you most certainly have the time and expertise to set up a custom server with the same functionality and without all the magic.

For a front-end dev, it advertises that you don't need to write a backend because it generates one for you. But if you don't know how to write a backend, then you should stick to something like Firebase or Supabase. Otherwise, you might have to dive into gnarly Nest.js dependency injection syntax, Prisma, and auth eventually.
"Don't use tabs" just seems wrong.

"Use a recent bash" seems like a matter of preference.

"Make is all about files (paraphrasing)" seems a little obvious hopefully, but definitely the way Make is intended to be used.

"Magic variables" eh... I dunno, I guess sometimes they can get obscure but it isn't super hard to look this sort of thing up.

The omission of % seems weird.

> lack of degradation of performance due to bloated registry,

Most of the performance degradation on Windows comes from all the bloatware used to spy on you (remember 'Compatibility Telemetry'?). In this regard, I find MacOS even worse (whateverd is using 100% CPU again), and it's even harder to get rid of all the spyware. I think this is one of the few ways Linux beats the competition.

The UNIX heritage thing is eh. MacOS does a very cursory job of pretending to be UNIX, with usually just the very basics working. In contrast, WSL2 is mostly equivalent to working on Linux.

The filesystem stuff is weird. Sometimes MacOS is case sensitive, sometimes not, sometimes it does the weird file locking thing Windows does, that I hate, sometimes not.

I think each OS is crappy in its own way, and I definitely wouldn't put MacOS over Windows.

How about just saying in hindsight: "Hey, we were wrong! [Yes, it's possible! The allmighty Google can be wrong! Newsflash!] We are sorry, these things happen with our automated systems. Person XYZ is completely not guilty of our accusations and we will revert all actions taken from our side. It is in the nature of things, that these cases are difficult to distinguish, without information about the child as well as the parent and we need to stay vigilant about pictures of children being uploaded to our services. Please accept our apologies."

Instead of going: "Nooo! We were still right! We don't care what others say or what facts were found out!"

So I am thinking you are painting the scenario a bit wrong here, saying, that there are only 2 options. An honest apology and actions to make up for ones mistakes can go a long way. Of course I would not expect Google to act that way.

I'm surprised no one has built a better publishing platform for books/multi-page content. Almanac's editor (based on Prosemirror) is top notch (https://almanac.io/), but it's a different target market. I'm trying to build a similar editor for the publishing space along these lines at pagespace.app.
If you’re in C major, the V chord is G7, which contains a tritone between its 3 and 7, B and F. You can say, what if instead of B being the 3 of the chord and F being the 7, F is the 3 and B is the 7? Then you discover that the root of this other chord is C# (or Db). Because the function of a chord is largely dictated by the 3 and 7 in it, this means you can substitute any dominant 7 chord with another dominant 7 chord a tritone away and it will still basically function the same (this can create some extra dissonance before the cadence which is nice and it creates some nice chromatic movement in the bass).
Hot tip, ship fast and break things doesn't work when you're talking about putting out a 2 ton, gigantic battery out in the world that is expected to last for over 20 years. This is a gigantic waste. Any other company would have been crucified for putting out such a shit car, and the only reason Tesla survived it is because they had funny meme man to do damage control.
Only using the official API is quite cumbersome, as fetching a story with comments requires one network request per each comment.

Instead, try considering the (more unknown) Algolia API[0]. It supports fetching the entire tree in one request. Unfortunately the comments aren’t sorted, so you’ll still have to use the official one (or parse the HN HTML) if you need that.

For my HN client[1], I parse the HN HTML (as it’s required for voting), and sort the comments from the Algolia API. It’s much faster than recursively requesting the official API.

Sesame Street was developed by a 501c3 (Children’s Television Workshop renamed to Sesame Workshop) and sold to PBS. Episodes were licensed by a publicly funded organization, they weren’t produced by one.
As someone who was also raised deeply religious but has since abandoned the belief, I echo your feeling that there are very valuable ego disillusion and ethics lessons that need to be extracted from the dogma of religion.

It's to the point where I'm sometimes shocked by the extreme ego and lack of moral framework in some of my friends and peers who were raised purely secular.

>capital is still allocated on your behalf into the fund that could have been paid to you directly.

For taxpayer funded pensions, it is more like future taxpayers’ capital is allocated on your behalf.

Meaning, the actuary will calculate the government needs to set aside $2 today, the government leaders will say change that to $1 so the taxes are low today, and will end up actually contributing $0.50 because some of the funds were needed to make up for yesterday’s shortfall.

Indeed, transparent pricing is a plainly obvious requirement of a free market, which is why lots of business "innovations" are ways to hide pricing. Where it breaks down in my mind is that we have a hard time assigning a market value to human morbidity and mortality.

I have my own story of US healthcare which may be enlightening. It happened to a friend of mine. Let's say this friend is not particularly well to do and lived with his 2 brothers, but they don't always get along that well. At some point, they got into an argument that escalated into an altercation where one brother broke a poolstick over my buddy's head. He had a concussion and laceration needing stiches, so he went to the ER. He was unable to remember his name or which ER treated him, and as a result, was never billed for the care provided and learned the key to universal healthcare in the US - he just gives a fake name at the ER now.
I agree that there are reasons someone would hate school, but it doesn't make sense for it to be a cultural norm to say that to teachers. No one ever says "wow you murder people for Uncle Sam for money?" to someone who was in the military, they say "thank you for your service". I think that's what the author was getting at. It's not just low pay; teaching is thankless, even looked down upon.
>It happened when it couldn’t tell wether the shadow of over cross bridge from a physical object.

Who could have predicted that just relying just on cameras was not a good solution ? Definitely not the hundreds of researchers that told Musk that a LIDAR was necessary.
And the center for missing and exploited children is not a law enforcement agency and uses volunteers! That’s outrageous
FSD handles those situations well, compared to Waymo etc, because FSD doesn't depend on pre-mapping. Waymo depends on pre-generated 3D maps and it fails if there's a discrepancy. That's why Waymo works only on small areas and uses cherry-picked routes.

See this example, where the map data is completely wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gTV9SlutU0

> It still complicated to transfer all data and settings from one Android phone to another Android phone.

Odd, it’s almost trivial to go from iPhone to iPhone, but I never had 2 Android phones in a row.

Anyway, despite it being a major revenue stream most people purchase minimal if any apps and of those many can make the swap. Money sinks like Clash of Clans generally let you transfer accounts between platforms to keep people hooked. And of course subscription like Disny+ are independent.

People mixing 2 things: tracking over your apps vs tracking on 3rd party apps are different things.

Apples tracking protections ( allow apps to track ) applies to 3rd party apps.

Apple’s tracking for ads, applies only to Apple apps.

Facebook can track people on their apps ( facebook, instagram, whatsapp etc ) if they want. Problem is about tracking with facebook SDK on 3rd party apps.

> Make leans heavily on the shell, and in the shell spaces matter. Hence, the default behavior in Make of using tabs forces you to mix tabs and spaces, and that leads to readability issues.

I have written a great many makefiles, simple and complex. I can’t recall a single time I’ve needed to mix tabs and spaces in one (though I have had to mix them multiple times in both YAML and HTML).

(As for anything like accidental mixing, for my part I have a sanely-configured text editor and so don’t need to worry about anything silly like tabs being turned into spaces. Tabs are superior to spaces anyway. ⸺But I do use spaces for Rust and Python where that is customary, I’m not completely antisocial.)

> .ONESHELL ensures each Make recipe is ran as one single shell session, rather than one new shell per line. This both - in my opinion - is more intuitive, and it lets you do things like loops, variable assignments and so on in bash.

.ONESHELL also means that your makefile will behave differently from how anyone that’s familiar with makefiles will expect it to. But I guess this does explain why you went enabling strict mode, since you’ve basically turned off the near-equivalent default functionality from Make.

Note also that you can do loops and such already—you just need to use line continuations (put backslashes at the end of each line, which Make will consume).

Yeah, the default behaviour is idiosyncratic and will lead to surprises in the unwary (though they’ll normally observe it immediately, when the cd is ineffective on the next line, or when the if/for causes a syntax error), but I think Make has generally become niche enough that I’d prefer to pander to people that know Make than normal people. :-)

> .DELETE_ON_ERROR

Two-edged sword: it also means you can’t inspect what went wrong by looking at the file. You’re also making the very dubious assumption that merely deleting this one file will fix everything. A few times when I’ve known something to be fallible but want to be able to inspect what it created, I’ve put in something like a `… || { touch --date=@0 $@; exit 1; }` suffix so it still fails, but first zeroes its mtime so that subsequent runs will see that it’s out of date, though the file still exists.

I’m not saying it’s wrong or a bad idea, just that it’s worth considering the implications fully rather than blindly applying it.
I don't think distributed databases are aiming primarily at increasing write throughput over a single node. The question is, how many transactions can you write per second from your California datacenter to your New York postgres leader when someone typos the BGP rule controlling that database's IP address? Probably zero. That's the performance number these databases are trying to increase.

Many people can say, "wait, that doesn't matter to me at all, that happens at most once a year and all of my customers are also offline when it happens". Indeed, that's why people are doing just fine with postgres. But, some things are a little more mission critical than average, and so these technologies exist for them.

One thing that does tip the scale towards these distributed databases are operational concerns. "Apply security patch" or "migrate to new major version" look a lot to distributed systems like "tornado took out the data center" or "hard disk turned into many disconnected chunks of steel". So while you might not be super concerned about disasters, you might still be interested in keeping your compute nodes disposable or in doing regular maintenance without downtime. I don't think the operational balance is quite there yet, but it's definitely worth looking into every few months to see what the state of the art is.
"Teachers are underpaid, so let's spend more on education!" right?

Wrong, or at least, a grade of Incomplete.

http://usedbyeducatorsblog.com/education-spending-vs-teacher...

Colorado has enjoyed a 15 percent increase in spending per student from 1992 to 2014 when adjusted for inflation. Put another way, in 2014 Colorado public school students had 15 percent more real resources spent on their education compared to students in 1992. During that same period, however, the average Colorado teacher’s salary has gone down by 11 percent when adjusted for inflation

This is fairly universal, I'd surmise. Most commenters seem to assume that if we wanted to spend, let's say, $100M more on teachers' salaries, we'd have to increase the public education budget by $100M. More like $300M, I'd guess.
The different email address per service approach fixes that issue and provides additional privacy when your data is sold to bulk data resellers.
> That is just an absurd statement.

No it isn't. It is also not early days either and we have given FSD enough time to meet the claims of achieving Level 5 with those strong and 'confident' deadlines even set by Musk himself, which he knew he couldn't meet, but the gullible customers and fans rushed in and fell for it anyway.

Not only they have all been missed, this year, Tesla finally admitted that it was Level 2 and it still doesn't work in the most dangerous time to drive which is at night. FSD (Fools Self Driving) is no where near close in the nearly ten years it has existed.

This is an obvious over-promising of a broken product with the pied-piper selling it to their fans scam.
If anyone is interested in watching how real airline pilots use MSFS 2020 and yes even X-Plane 11, I have a couple of suggestions;

flightdeck2sim is also a real airline captain who flies BOEING
: https://www.youtube.com/c/flightdeck2sim

Both are fun to watch and both use as much real life procedures as is possible in a desktop simulator. I've learned a LOT from watching their livestreams and tutorial VODs.
