You’re experiencing burnout. It’s not a rut in the sense that it can be mentally adapted into something else, it’s exhaustion. You don’t just deserve, you need, time to recover from it, and you need a commitment to your wellbeing to do that.

I’m saying this from experience at the wrong end of answering this question, or at least addressing the same underlying cause. I’m over two years into severe burnout and have no idea if I’ll ever recover. I made the wrong choice by committing to my job over what my body and mind were telling me.

Get some rest, before your body forces you to do it. And before you build a cycling habit of it. You’re clearly smart. You’ll get to chase all the career things you want to, but you’ll only enjoy them if you take care of yourself along the way.

And yes, do seek therapy if that’s something you’re open to. It can help, especially if you’re in a place where you can go in with trust. Which it sounds like you are.
It tries to show me people talking about maths and finance and programming but they're all either infantilising themselves for some reason or not very good at it.

And anyway I have a fair amount of karma here so what does that say about hackernews if your implication is correct...
I've used EB extensively for a range of applications and it has been very reliable. There have been a few pain points (see cons below), but I suppose this is to be expected given the complexity that it tries to manage.

Pros (in addition to managing much of the complexity of a highly available application):

- Works well with docker-compose (multi-container environment)

- Easy to setup multiple environments (e.g. staging, production etc)

- EB extensions: these are optional scripts that run on newly created instances before they come online. This might include adding CRON jobs, attaching an EFS, or flagging an instances as the "leader" to ensure only one instance runs DB migrations.

Cons:

- It can be difficult finding relevant errors in logs, as several logs groups for different services are output. Be sure to stream logs to Cloudwatch (this is easily done in the config), otherwise you won't be able to extract logs from a buggy instance that has since been terminated.

- Depending on your configuration, deployments can be slow. If you've configured rolling deployments and have 5 servers running, you will have to wait for 5 newly created instances to come online, each in turn. The upside is that rolling deployments give you a chance to catch newly deployed bugs and rollback the deployment before it affects all servers. You could alternatively configure an "all at once" deployment strategy.

- If your instance health checks are too stringent, it can become frustrating to get your application back in the healthy state. Consider a scenario where your health check page (e.g. /health) pings a non-essential cache database. If your cache database goes offline, EB will treat your application as unhealthy. I recommend keeping the health check page very simple, and setting up separate alarms for other services.

To add to/counteract some points seen in another comment:

Cloudposse has modules that make beanstalk quite manageable with Terraform: https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-elastic-beanstal...

"Hard to attract talent": I'm skeptical this is an issue in most cases. After all, EB exists so that you don't have to think too much about the infra. For simple use cases, a general understanding of the infra components (not EB-specific) will go a long way. However I can understand talent/developer time could be an issue you're doing something really fancy with EB, such as making heavy use of EB extensions.

"Not the future": This sounds like another way of saying "it's not trendy". Whilst I agree, this point doesn't weigh heavily for me, as I'd try to focus on doing what's right for the application and the team.
Which part is "predicting the DA's decision" in a police officer's job description? Why hasn't it been replaced by ML?

For a different analogy, at a startup, the pm changes the requirements every so often, therefore the engineers are fine to play foosball all day?
Option 2 is not a "slap on the wrist, coddle them and give them money." It's solving the actual problem. This is supported by research. Stop strawmanning. Even the DoJ agrees: https://www.justice.gov/archives/prison-reform

Well, if you make use of the complete system, sure. But if it just takes a regular TRRS jack; and if someone finds the socket and plugs their own headphones directly into it...

In a river, they're called strainers. If someone is caught against one, water pressure often makes it impossible to extricate themselves without assistance, and if their head is underwater when they become trapped, rescue may not come quickly enough.

They're also less predictable than a lot of other river hazards. It's possible to come around the bend and be faced with a big strainer that wasn't there the last time you ran the river.

Here's a good video showing a rescue from one: https://www.reddit.com/r/whitewater/comments/cn6k8k/nasty_st...

5 paragraphs of Silver Bullet Magical Thinking nonsense to get to the actual bill, which is basically calling for a study and recommended guidelines for OSS security - of which there are several already, including one from the DoD [1].

I see nothing new or useful here, what am I missing?

"The Securing Open Source Software Act would direct CISA to develop a risk framework to evaluate how open source code is used by the federal government. CISA would also evaluate how the same framework could be voluntarily used by critical infrastructure owners and operators. This will identify ways to mitigate risks in systems that use open source software. The legislation also requires CISA to hire professionals with experience developing open source software to ensure that government and the community work hand-in-hand and are prepared to address incidents like the Log4j vulnerability. Additionally, the legislation requires the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to issue guidance to federal agencies on the secure usage of open source software and establishes a software security subcommittee on the CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee."

The implementation of Fibonacci numbers in Haskell doesn't use memoization at all. It's the dumbest possible implementation. Here's an optimized one:

fibs = 0 : scanl (+) 1 fibs

It also showcases Haskell's lazy list and recursive definition of data (not your usual recursive function).
Checkpoint/restore is supported by runc and there were demos of live migrating Docker containers several years ago. A better question is why Kubernetes isn't working on integrating it (though I suspect there's a KEP for it somewhere).
These types of guys are dumb. No sympathy. Just because it was declared legal doesn't mean it is a good law. We have lots of laws like that, but most of them won't get you killed swiftly.

Ugh. No, that's just another strawman. The argument, which is supported by research, is that actually helping people to reintegrate into society, helping them find homes, get jobs, and get mental health treatment stops them committing crimes. That's because putting people in a place of stability reduces the need to commit crime.
The reservoirs we're using as an example are in the hundreds of acres of surface area. That's not "huge parts of the Sierras". If you look at Bath County Pumped Storage Station on Google maps, the bigger reservoir is a skinny lake about a mile long.

Perhaps it makes sense to use much larger reservoirs, but even then I have trouble equating the creation of a few artificial lakes with severe environmental destruction. Really, it all depends on where they put it and whether they do reasonable due diligence to not impact existing habitat too severely. The environmental destruction that results from burning petroleum for ground transportation is far worse.
Uninformed guess: "The master [public address system] power button [located] up by [seat] 1L kept getting pushed so it would shut off all the IFE [(inflight entertainment)]"

This makes sense, because for safety reasons all the entertainment is paused when they use the public address system.
Jesus H. Christ, that brings back memories. When I was (much) younger, probably somewhere between 9-13 or thereabouts, I had a brief phase when I really in to "weird stuff." I spent a lot of time reading books about UFO's, ghosts, the Bermuda Triangle, the Philadelphia Experiment, "ancient aliens", the "Oak Island money pit", blah, etc. etc. And the whole Flight 401 thing either figured very prominently in at least one book I read, or it kept re-appearing or both, because I just recalled a whole bunch of profound feelings associated with that story. I remember being really freaked out by it at the time. Enough so that I probably wouldn't have wanted to get on an airplane had I had any reason to fly back then (I didn't).

I'd like to say that even back then I mostly didn't really believe all that stuff, but I think maybe I kinda did, at least to a degree. Now I think it's all bollocks, and maybe that's one of the things I miss about being a kid... that sense of fascination with the mysterious and unknown and the sense of possibility that comes with allowing yourself to believe in the Bermuda Triangle, ghosts, yadda yadda.
Car culture hasn't "built up". It has always been. It is on cyclists to change it, if they aren't winning, there is a reason - people like this guy are not helping their cause at all.
> bored more than they're overworked

They state outright that they’re exhausted. Lots of us get bored and lose the sense of value we felt when we’re overextended. Even when we apply ourselves harder. Often the first symptomatic recognition of burnout is loss or deteriorating interest.
Surely this doesn't work without const since that would be breaking the expectation of unique objects. I suppose a sufficiently thorough optimizer can check if an array is modified or escapes via a pointer to disable the compaction.

There are a huge number of these broker/marketplaces - I know of several in my local city population > 500k. Is this a submarine article, or is the Trump connection relevant (maybe it's controversial?)

Overall, it's interesting but not unique so I ask - why this one? They aren't huge -- 400 total campaigns, targeting "nano" and "micro" influencers: why them?
Thanks!

I didn't want to do a shameless plug, but it doesn't count if someone else does it ;)
A certain amount of cynicism is realistic, don't you think?

It's a proven fact that most startups don't make it. Based on statistics alone, Google's next big thing will probably be a dud --- just like Larry Page's electric air taxi.

I was cynical about Facebook and their business model. I tried to convince my friends and family not to buy into what they were selling --- with only moderate success. It only took a couple of decades but most now realize that I was right from the start. Everyone is now at least talking about how to ditch Facebook. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32959068

Call me cynical but I think that everyone making their own currency is a blast from the past --- not the wave of the future. It won't work any better now than it did back when. It's like the lottery --- if you haven't lost money yet, it can only be because you haven't played the game long enough.
I coached a very successful entrepreneur who did this. Their wins included lots of well-implemented contingency thinking and a stable platform/experience.

Their biggest fails came with managing the tremendous growth of the organization. Logically, technically, strategically it was all tied off very well. But relationally, even ethically there were some gigantic blind spots.

Typically an individual can deftly handle tech OR people with a high level of fluency, not both. This person was extremely good at the former. But the latter was basically the leg day that had been skipped for years.

I recommend that you think about the kind of people-powered organization you do, or don't, want to build, and how that might look in the context of this undertaking. (Maybe that's not urgent for now though)
Mozilla can bitch all they want, but as long as they continue to ship a shitty product nobody will heed them attention.
I wonder if Autism is also an autoimmune disorder?

EdgeDB is half of what you describe on the database front. You can add nested queries with filters and calculated query types. Every item in the database is given a unique UUID and there's support for complex custom types and constraints, included calculated constraints I believe.

You could have an Article type with a link to a Person as the author, and many more types of Works besides. You could find any Work by a Person traversing backlinks to find any object linked to that person. Any work where they contributed. Any social media link they posted.

Then query that by a duration of time starting from a specific date. A specific place, if it has it, a group of sites and so on.

If my understanding of it from my time playing with it is correct. I haven't experimented with too broad a dataset yet.
And considering one of those controversies is the CIA editing Wikipedia, even this article is somewhat tilted in favor of the CIA.

Like the opening bit about "the Legacy of Ashes. There's one sentence saying it exists followed by the rest of the paragraph mostly criticizing the unmentioned contents.
No longer need to call mom from another house to tell how to run some commands as I screwed network settings on reboot.

On a related note, how is EC2 still that hard to have a working offline console?
Ah, I see where you're coming from.

Coincidentally, I've been doing a deep dive into offline-first, mesh & p2p related projects (nncp, yggdrasil, etc).

Would be interesting to see a linux distro with builtin plumbing for such things. Eg: constant snapshots, cached locally and then forwarded on to your other devices (once they are network reachable), all within a local mesh network that you define, which sits on top of the public internet (and bypasses NAT and firewalls)
We host Docker containers. As you aptly observe: you can boot up a Docker container just about anywhere. I'm not seeing the lock-in.
"Whoever ... causes to be made unworkable or unusable ... any part ... used in connection with the operation of such aircraft, if such placing ... is likely to endanger the safety of any such aircraft"

The "part" is the PA system. While the device is playing the prank sound, it is temporarily "made unworkable" for its intended purpose of allowing the crew to communicate with the passangers. This "endangers the safety of the aircraft" because in certain situations it's possible the crew would need to communicate quickly with passangers or have silence so that they can understand each other and focus on solving an issue.

Edit: Looks like captain could override, flight attendants couldn't. That still causes a safety risk because in an emergency the cockpit might want to focus on flying the plane while the flight attendants instructed the passangers. Plus the distraction factor remains.
Making ad hominem attacks against the people who disagree with you doesn’t strengthen your argument. MIT probably isn’t comprised of “anti-science luddites” and actually by ignoring the consensus and research on this issue you’re the one positioned against science.

I was just wondering today why the BR format has taken over in recent years and I can't really come up with a technical reason for it. Red orchestra had 64 player pvp matches back in 2006 and I think Arma had similar sized game modes in that era too. I could see a BR mod for either of those, but it didn't happen (or at least take off). Maybe there's something I'm missing, but it seems feasible.

I think the gaming world just really latches onto tends. A few years it was survival/crafting games, before that RPG's. Good luck figuring out what's next!
It says it took them 69 attempts to hit the target. I wonder if that is repeatable, or did they just get lucky? The video gives the impression that the rifle was handheld, so they couldn't have dialed in shot like artillery. But if they had, what would the spread be like at that range? Would it even be possible to reliably hit the target? If not, is it literally just dumb luck?
So far after episode 5 ive fell asleep 20x, surfed the web for oven mitts and called my ex wife to take me back. Thats how boring this series is. Horrible writing, dreadfully dragged on plot, characters are boring and all over the place. An epic fail and embarrassment to the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit trilogy's
In practical terms the only real use for Optane DIMMs was very high capacity RAM systems. Optane let you get 512GB in a stick when LRDIMM was 128GB. And of course you can still go multisocket etc too. So you run the same software, but in large-VRAM scenarios that couldn't be handled optimally by LRDIMMs without paging. Things like SAP HANA and so on.

But a system that only makes sense in super high end configurations is setting an uphill battle for itself. You can't even put together a demo machine without using one of a handful of processors at the top of Intel's stack, how do you even demo that to your boss as a concept? And in the end the commodity solutions just ended up outpacing it at lower cost, flash still sucks at random but it's generally fine and people don't want to pay the extra $500 for optane on their 1tb drive.

Software getting entirely rewritten for NVRAM is a pipe dream lol. Maybe you could have defined a "high range" ala HIMEM that is persistent across boots and will never be allocated, just used it as a block device so your SAP database would never unload, but, yeah, there are non-trivial problems.

We get paid to find the corner cases and handle them before the rest of the world even knows they exist. We've self selected from the general population as a group that focuses on knowing how things work, and especially on knowing all the ways something can go wrong.

On top of that, as you get older, you've ridden, then watched, a few hype cycles and can recognize them at once.

Why wouldn't we be wary and skeptical as heck?
I'm one of those weird people that genuinely enjoys using windows as my main OS. vc++ and c# stuff is very nice on that OS, but I still feel like wsl is a bit like shoving a square peg into a round hole. too often, things that "just work" on a full-fledged linux install fail on wsl for some obscure reason.

my solution is to use windows for GUI things, and a remote linux instance for actual building/running/deploying services. vs code server is really nice for this, you can essentially run it as a GUI thin client locally that controls a headless remote that does all the heavy lifting. it's pretty seamless if you're willing to accept that you need a network connection to get any work done.
Not really. The managerial process for fixing a vulnerability or mitigating supply chain attacks in an open source project is functionally different than for a proprietary product. So much so that it’s often the subject of memes (and frustration) in the FOSS community when people don’t understand the difference.

This might be a possible scenario, but currently the permits are limited and there is no guarantee that they will be renewed in the exact same form. There is already a lot of resistance against the destruction of the landscape and the withdrawal of farmland from food production. Economic considerations could lead to a shift in the production of solar energy from Europe to where it can be done more efficiently. (Marocco is already very active in this respect.) Other forms of energy production could gain in importance because they provide more continuous energy: geothermal energy in the near and fusion in the distant future. Therefore, I think, it is not unlikely that not all, but perhaps a lot of solar parks might be deconstruct after their projected service life of 30 to 40 years.
>Is 7.4% of desktop users [0] inconsequential? Maybe to your business, but I think most would be sad to lose 7% of desktop users. I'll also note if this indicates "death" Safari is dead too.

Nobody with a sane mind is going to bother spending time and resources on just 7.4% of the userbase, that's just a simple and brutal fact of reality.

I do think Safari is "dead" as a browser, it's not Chrome after all. But it's not dead dead yet, and the only reason for that is because it's the only browser on iOS which itself holds a significant minority share of the mobile space. Webdevs will support Safari not because Safari is worth paying attention to, but because iOS and its ~45%(?) market share is worth paying attention to.

>Personally I hope this trend reverses. Firefox is the only thing stopping Chrome from becoming the next IE 6.

I argue Chrome is already the second coming of IE6, and we've yet to see the second coming of Firefox. And whatever the second of coming of Firefox is, it's almost certainly not going to be anything to do with Mozilla.
