As someone with avpd, it is truly brutal. It is a very severe form of social anxiety that usually ends up effecting all forms of your behaviour. Developing compulsive lying behaviours, even to the point of fraud, avoiding work even if it has no social component. I desire being invited to parties yet throw up with nerves before heading out, even if it is people I have known my entire life. A good therapist and being open to trying various treatments is really the only way to get help… yet doing so can be almost impossible for the avoidant.
I love being alone too. But I learnt a while ago that being alone too much is bad for my mental health. It sounds like you might be on the way to teaching a similar conclusion. That being the case, I recommend continuing to enjoy being alone while making a concerted effort to not be alone too much (even if it is difficult).
I'll also submit that eXtace (remember that one?) is art. Surely there's other "pretty picture from audio" generators that count too.
The lack-of-taste element has been trumped by the ‘Get Outlook for iOS’ one that it’s spawned.

Well, then I guess it's good that I didn't share it with anyone else.
It's just disheartening to see software racing to the bottom, quality-wise.
I was going to say something similar, I feel very much like OP, and also didn't get married to combat that kind of feeling, but I now have my family to focus on and fill that kind of void. I love being alone but also realize it would be too much without family, especially with wfh now.
The auto-marketing footer sullies the rest of his letter. The content recognizes all of the great achievements of human civilization and then at the end there is an advertisement. Which relies on it's continued inclusion in emails by stroking the human ego, so not very Buddhist, either.
i think a retraction or minor edit after 99.9% of the readerbase has consumed the content, is too little, too late.

Damage done.
I click on links all the time from email (not everyone uses webmail), console, IDE, etc. Enough that yes, it very much matters. Even if not that many links happen, there's 0% chance you wouldn't end up by default using whatever browser it is that opens when you click one.

It's not different if the client hires a big consultancy firm though, but HMRC has no problem with these for some (khem... khem..) reason...
Thank you for stopping by and the link. I signed up for access using the OP’s link. Is that no longer required?
I don't think that's what the person you're replying to said, but yes, that is true in some cases, especially when crimes are perpetrated out of need, drug addiction, or because of feeling disenfranchised and excluded from society.

That's certainly not everyone, but I suspect if we were to deal with the subset that is "misunderstood" in a more productive way, SF crime would be a lot more tractable.
I'd watch it if it was on Netflix. Don't wanna pay for Prime though.
Hmmm, I wonder! My experience with this comes from doing some minor reverse engineering work on the Wii game back in my teens, in order to pass all the dialogue through Google translate, for great amusement [0].

My observation was the data structures/file formats were basically slight modifications of the ones used in other first party Nintendo games, primarily Mario Kart and Mario Party. So it seems like it's always drawn heavily from some internal SDK/engine, it's just not clear how much, or how much of that engine is saved between consoles.

Anecdotally, the DS and Wii (and ... maybe the GC? I don't remember now) used the same file format for the dialogue scripts, although the DS version was little-endian, and broke all my (terribly brittle) "tooling". The 3DS was totally different, and I ... Think the Switch was a variant of the 3DS format? It's been a hot minute since I've looked at any of this stuff :-)

I strongly dislike people like you
the show look so cheap. mostly due to its cinematography. where everything in GOT was too dark and you needed a 4k tv to enjoy here everything is too bright almost like overexposed. it creates a feeling of cheapness. the 3d (like the dog fight scene) is cheap too. costumes are too clean and actors are too clean too. its like everyone is designed like legolas man,elves, dwarves. then characters are really simple as well as their design. just compare to house of dragon and look at the bad guy of the first episodes. the crab guy is a really great bad guy nd its design and costum is really awesome. ring of power is in dire need of a good antagonist.
The technology is safe enough to use, as long as you stick to hardware tokens - I have accumulated a few of them over the years (quite affordable), and you can get USB-A, USB-C and NFC versions.

You shouldn't get locked in with a USB hardware token - you can enrol it in Chrome on one computer, and then authenticate via Firefox in another computer.

The issue is really the software-based "passkey" implementation. As long as you're not solely reliant on one company for login (i.e. you enrol multiple keys, one of which is portable and interoperable, AKA a hardware token) you can safely add software-based ones for convenience without getting locked in - you can always use the hardware token to get back in and enrol a new device.
Do licenses like the GPL even apply to TLA like the NSA and CIA? Or could they just make patches for themselves and not release them?

I'm sure I'll get downvoted for this and not believed by hardly anyone on this crowd so I'll keep it short and without evidence, only testimony:
I was a US intelligence officer for some time. Not woth NSA, but did a lot of work with NSA, CIA, and the Bureau. The involvement between the US intelligence agencies and FAANG (in terms of the rough narrative involved) is a lot less impressive and threatening than people here suppose. The reality is that the US government hires some smart people to solve hard problems. When the problems get harder, they higher more smart people. The costs arent completely opaque, either. So at the end of the FY the costs get seen by elected officials and actions get justified and legally scrutinized. As it turns out, the US government is a lot less interested in spying on people who aren't threats to the state, and the intelligence agencies have to be judicial in who they target, because there are limited resources for such activities.

The US intelligence service is also a bureaucracy, and people seem to forget that. Just because something is "secret" doesn't mean it is romantic or Bornesque.

Context: I have not held a TS clearance or been employed with the US government nor contractor for a little over 3 years.

A lot of the best 3rd party switch games are ports from PC games or games available on other consoles: spelunky, shovel knight, cup head.

I think the technical imitations can definitely hamstring their games, even the first party ones. breath of the wild comes to mind, and frequently dips into sub 30 fps which breaks the immersion factor.
You have a very neat website (https://sam.design). Learned something new today.
Most of those submissions die in the queue.

I'd set a 20-comment limit to the search I presented for a reason. At present, the 30 results shown go back over 7 months. That's roughly a significant submission per week.

Contrasting a search for "lwn.net" alone in submissions, the first page of results (sorted by date, again, 30 results) only goes back 3 weeks (22 days). But most of those get little activity --- some upvotes, and a few with many comments, but, in a third search sorted by popularity over the past month,

<https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=tr...>

Ten of those meet or beat my 20-comment threshold, 20 don't. And note that 20 comments isn't especially significant, 4 submissions exceed 100 comments.

I'm not saying that the concern doesn't exist. But ultimately, it's LWN's to address. The constant admonishments to not share links seem to fall into tangential annoyances and generic tangents, both against HN guidelines: <https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html>

“Forgot” to read the reviews before starting to watch.. no review can change my mind now: I like the show very much. Epic.
The problem is that a lot of people are going to unintentionally lock themselves in due to Apple's and Google's marketing. It's going to be a miserable few years.

I think there's extreme frustration that organized crime, in the form of Putin and his support system, are widely recognized even in Russia, yet are not violently rejected at home. Indecision is what he exploits, perhaps.
Whatever. The effect is horrible. And plenty of times live audiences are worse than the ones that come out of a can. Watch the "WAT" video twice, and you'll know what I'm talking about... That one person who has to laugh fast and loud to let everybody know "I GOT THE JOKE BETTER THAN YOU DID". It gets in the way of the viewer engaging with the show.
Because "police beat up innocent people" is a non-argument. You could replace "police" in that statement with just about any group of people and it would still hold true.
I personally think they should think about maintaining a chromium fork.

It will relieve a lot of resources to be spent on other things like user experience, and they will benefit from all the development resources devoted to chromium, while being able to remove anything they don't like, like MV3 limitations on adblockers.

I really like what brave is doing, I switched because I lost hope Mozilla is going to do anything, they are funded by google, and therefore afraid to do anything impactful.

While brave has privacy by default, has an independent search engine, an independent ad network(that is privacy friendly and isn't enabled by default), and they aren't afraid to do anything against big tech, like banning AMP, removing social trackers and other things.

Brave is almost what Mozilla should've been.
Optane was pretty great for fs and db logs / journals.

That was pretty much its killer (practical) use case.
It's exactly the same with House of the Dragon: if you just go by what you read on Twitter, it seems like show is dead on arrival, utterly terrible, everyone knows GoT is over and done as "a thing". Meanwhile, I like it, everyone in my extended social circle who's watching it likes it, and it's doing huge viewership numbers. Feels like yet another example of "everything you read on the internet is written by insane people".
In a distributed company travel becomes essential to keep team coherence: anything from team activities to meeting up to decide on the direction of big projects (no online tool can beat a single room with a single whiteboard and a single marker in terms of usability and speed).

There are also meetings and travel to partners, to industry conferences and forums etc. (depends on teams).

In "tough times" all that is suddenly cut off, and only "essential travel" is allowed. But then some teams get to spend two weeks in Malibu on an "essential travel spa retreat" while their teams cannot even send engineers to a high stakes technical discussions with external party integrations. And of course "essential travel" somehow doesn't include various levels of sales, management and marketing.

So, people get grumpy.
As a driver (and a cyclist) I find that pedal bikes in the congested city core are annoying (because of slow acceleration) but ebikes are bearable because they accelerate faster than cars when the light turns green. Once up to speed (20mph / 32kph) ebikes are bearable because on average that's the speed of the flow of traffic once you account for red lights.
I love Tolkien, I'm not a fan of the show. It fundamentally changes the motivations of the elves who left Valinor. In turn, this changes the nature of Sauron and their relationship with him

That said, nothing against folks who enjoy it. It's a very well made fan fic! Who am I to tell others that they shouldn't enjoy it.
Get yourself committed to something. Until a few years ago, my closest friends were people from high school or college. Over time, those friendships changed as our lives went in different directions. For me it got easier when I had kids - I coach baseball and help out with various school and other activities. You show up, get to know people and the rest is what you make it!

My brother got very serious about darts… he joined a dart league and was the president of some sort of regional dart organization. Point is whatever it is, find something where someone or something is depending on you so you don’t blow it off, then start talking to people. It could be darts, robot club, working a soup kitchen or church.
Firefox on android is an objectively superior experience.
> Yep, and it requries computers.

Does it? Wrasslin' has had Battle Royals as long as I've been alive and conscious and I'm sure -- although I can't find the reference now -- that English bare-knuckle boxers used to have Battle Royals in the mercantile period for non-trivial money.
> In the comments I mostly see "because of js and adtech", but is there a factual analysis somewhere ?

I don't know about a real analysis, but it's pretty easy to see the effect in your own browser. Disable JS and see how much faster the page loads.
> there is no way to create a "Pin<i32>"

Caveat, I haven't worked with Pin that much. Take this with a grain of salt.

My understanding is - you really shouldn't put copyable stuff in Pin. Period. If you want something like that wrap i32 in new struct and declare it !Unpin. Since negative traits are unstable, you just write PhantomPinned marker

struct NonPinI32 {
v: i32,
non_pin: PhantomPinned,
}
You're overthinking this. The solution can be as trivial as putting a padlock on the power outlet. More practically, there are dispensers that read RFID cards, so employee badges can be used to grant access. It can be a raspberry-pi level tech, not a full-blown payment terminal.
I'm going to disagree, I think. The problem isn't on the push side, it's on the pull side. People throwing random-quality code in github is fine. People deciding to amalgamate that into distributions and publish it is fine. The problem is that somewhere someone who is supposed to be held to some standard decided to pull that code in without looking at it, and that is the problem. NO WARRANTY is partially about legal issues, but not exclusively - if people share their code for free, they don't owe anyone anything. If you don't like that, you're free to offer them enough money to actually accept your standards.
Agree, I've found over the years that whatever professional service you seek rarely will you find the right person the first try. Specially if you need someone over the long term.

OP, your post is the starting point. Now you'll need to seek a professional that can help you. I would also seek a support group the meets regularly and VERY important, start a diary where you can write down what you are feeling and what you think will help you fix it. Do it at least once a week. Specially when you are having the strongest feelings. This will help you articulate what you are feeling so you can discuss it with some one else.

Keep in mind that being alone is a nice feeling for you but that does not mean it has to be 100% of the time. Think about it in terms of sweets. Most of us love sweets but we would never change our live so that we only eat sweets.

> I know, often times i am subconsciously aligning my actions to end up alone

Are you sure you aren't doing this because you have some sort of social anxiety that's prohibiting you from enjoying group activities? Even when I do like something, I often find that I would like to cancel and do nothing, but always feel better after when I go. I think it is pretty normal.
Loneliness is crippling. I've been there. Sitting in a shower with the lights off at 2am crying from the isolation, the lack of connection to another human. What helped me break out of it was to deal with the underlining emotions of loneliness, namely depression. I'm still lonely, for sure, but I'm doing better because I don't have depression and anxiety hanging over me.

I strongly suggest looking into shrooms, and ketamine therapy. Don't fall down the marijuana trap: It's great and all, but it makes you content with doing nothing. Shrooms and ketamine will be a red pill of sorts, help snap you out of thoughts of feeling lonely and isolated.

WFH has only made loneliness worse for a lot of people, I can only imagine what you're working through.
Don't get me wrong: https everywhere is a good policy, but I'm not super convinced of the need for strictly local connections to use https. Am I missing something?
Hey, it seems like you find yourself in a crisis. This has happens to most of us and it’s good that you posted here.

The question that you’re asking nobody else can answer for you unfortunately. A good way to find an answer is to start with asking “What am I”. And you’re amazing! But you have to seek the answer tirelessly to that question before you can see that. Here is a poem that can get you started on that journey:

https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45477/song-of-myself-...

Finding an answer is very difficult and we go through many ups and downs. If you’re feeling really desperate, make sure to reach out to a suicide prevention hotline. They’re run by really nice people who love you. There are some helpful resources here:

Wish you all the best!
This! I don't hate technology; in fact, I enjoy writing software, tinkering, building useful things that help people... what I hate is the corporate and profit-seeking structure built up around software development. My priorities are less defined by user need, and more defined by a group of people whose goals revolve around finding ways to squeeze money out of people. I do hate that.

However the context matters and it’s explained in this thread.

I agree with your point that TS is held back by being "just" a type checker. In particular, in Rust I can write code like this:

let _: Result<Vec<_>, _> = some_iter.collect();

or like this:

let _: Vec<Result<_, _>> = some_iter.collect();

The only thing that has changed here is the type annotation. Both will compile, but the implementation of `collect` is determined by that type. As far as I know this isn't the case in typescript, although please tell me if I'm wrong, I have limited experience from it and I'm thinking more from mypy perspective.

This ends up meaning that my types don't drive the program as much. There's this sort of declarative "here's the thing I want, use an implementation of that method to give it to me" that feels very powerful. I miss this a lot with mypy, my type annotations feel very much like annotations, they are a separate part of my program.

If TS were to lean into itself as its own thing, not just a way to do better JS, I think that'd be amazing. I'd love to see an AOT compiled TS where types are a semantic part of the program, I'd love to see it drop `any` entirely as well, and drop support for using JS in TS.

As for soundness, don't care too much tbh.
