Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - adjusting expectations is a big thing. "I should have X, Y, Z" or "I used to be able to ..." is replaced with "I do, right now, have a, b, c". This isn't something that can be done in an instant, it can take years. Don't beat yourself up, you are what you are. Other people are what they are.

I now laugh at crazy success quips people put on their bios. "Everest climber, unicorn founder, field medalists, loves cats" kind of thing. Yeah not gonna do all that. Prefer dogs anyway.

Not sure what you situation is, but for example if someone has broken up with you, there is a good side to that. And that is you don't have control over them, which is good, as it generalizes as no one has control over you either.
I've only read the headline and this comment, but this comment seems like a model of the problem the linked article presumably describes.

Feminization rocks, actually.
Use the infinity-wishes trick. "Are we allowed to contact you offline on occasion? Should we expect that you'll get back to us?"
I am confused as to why the media immediately trashed these people instead of analyzing why their side lost. That would seem like a much better use of their platform.
You keep saying "this is not that, because this is not that" - which is fine and all, but it doesn't make it true.

Please keep telling us what communism is and is not. With how certain you seem to be, these comments will surely end up being cited by a PhD in politics and history
The point is that you still have a decent chance of running into issues if you install Linux on any hardware for which you didn't specifically research Linux compatibility beforehand. Whether Linux is great or not in and of itself is a separate point, and kinda moot for anyone who can't get past the broken hardware - which is most non-technical users.
Your hypothetical is hollow sophistry while taxation is both law and social contract. Miss me with that "I'm not talking about philosophy, now imagine you're a cowboy riding a dinosaur" bollocks.

I really wish DigiKey would fire their web team and have McMaster's web team run their site.

DigiKey's website has gone downhill so dramatically the past five years or so... it's astonishing. Random failures, login attempts just redirect back to their homepage, horizontal scrollables inside of vertical scrollables (?!?!!), and that new filtering scheme that has javascript that grays-out/disables options randomly in response to you moving your mouse the wrong way. WTF.

Please DigiKey, learn from McMaster. Your website is junk, kill it with fire and start over. I love everything else about Digikey.
I like my code to be explicit. Meaning, you are clearly defining explicity what you code should DO.

But using the ":not(:set())" operator, you're making your code implicit. Because you're telling your code what NOT to do (and instead rely on defaults or other side effects to define what will happen to your headings line-height).
> - Per my knowledge US is the only country which stubbornly (and illogically) considers Sunday to be the first day of the week;

Just adding to the rest of the responses but Japan also has a very... contrived relationship with what counts as "the beginning of the week" and most people would say Sunday is that day.
That's a pretty lopsided characterization. Yes, they had big losses in Q1 and Q2 2022, but they had nearly 3 billion in earnings in 2021. Large companies will often swing to big losses from big profits when there is a big macro shift, which is exactly what happened to Shopify. That's meaningfully different from a company that has had a sea of losses since inception, especially when those losses grow proportionally with revenue increases.

> If you find my following perspective to be overly conservative, I’d gently push back with the observation that most folks I know in or pursuing executive roles view my career decisions as moderately risk-seeking

I wonder if this reflects the demographics of people in executive roles more than anything else.

People who need to take risks to end up in an executive role are naturally filtered out due to risky behaviour, whereas people who have better 'pedigree' (You know what I mean) don't have to take many risks.
I don’t always see it but sometimes on their home page there is an element that shows a few random products with their nice line drawings they do for the product. This just feels like it would be a really cool thing to put up on an e-reader as a kind of digital photo frame. Just random nice line art of McMaster products, hopefully just reusing the existing web element they display on their home page. If anyone works this up please let me know!
My understanding is that the Ethiopian calendar is basically the ancient Egyptian calendar aside from some names changing.
>That seems to have negative connotations for most people that I didn't mean to convey.

Not just "for most". It has negative connotations (of the kind reffered to here) for all people.

"Legend" connotes "didn't take place".
> no privacy on the internet anyways.

This is a false dichotomy and you're confusion anonymity with privacy.

Privacy is choosing what you want to share and there's always a baseline. The thing with the Big Tech mess is that they want EVERYTHING from you, even what they shouldn't have and that is where the problem lies.

Not only are they not verifiable but also can never be trusted. Paying for services doesn't guarantee privacy, transparency does.

FOSS is the only objective way to maintain true privacy. Privacy needs transparency and FOSS is forever transparent (for the most part).
The only guy who would fight them, Saddam, wasn’t so good at it. Even with our help.

KSA, Kuwait, Oman, UAE, Turkey and Israel’s battle hymn is “Onward Christian Soldiers” and so far we haven’t elected someone that dumb again. The Shia have the upper hand in Iraq now, so they’ve got no motivation.

Yes. There were thousands of directly heat related deaths. You're welcome to look up all the disparate sources rather than concern trolling.

The article is about the 53,000 excess deaths which would imply there was either an undetected major disaster centered around the hotter regions of europe during a record heatwave, or that it's worth investigating what the causal links were.

At no point is it reasonable to try gaslighting people into somehow thinking it was cold as an anti-eu and anti-science dog whistle.
or provide 3 versions of the thing, so the ambiguity can be - hopefully - resolved
In theory, a GC should never be faster than manual memory management. Anything a GC can do can be done manually, but manual management has much more context about appropriate timing, locality, and resource utilization that a GC can never have. A large aspect of performance in modern systems is how effectively you can pipeline and schedule events through the CPU cache hierarchy.

There are a few different ways a GC impacts code performance. First, even low-latency GCs have a latency similar to a blocking disk op or worse on modern hardware. In high-performance systems we avoid blocking disk ops entirely specifically because it causes a significant loss in throughput, instead using io_submit/io_uring. Worse, we have limited control over when a GC occurs; at least with blocking disk ops we can often defer them until a convenient time. To fit within these processing models, worst case GC latency would need to be much closer to microseconds.

Second, a GC operation tends to thrash the CPU cache, the contents of which were carefully orchestrated by the process to maximize throughput before being interrupted. This is part of the reason high-performance software avoids context-switching at all costs (see also: thread-per-core software architecture). It is also an important and under-appreciated aspect of disk cache replacement algorithms, for example; an algorithm that avoids thrashing the CPU cache can have a higher overall performance than an algorithm that has a higher cache hit rate.

Lastly, when there is a large stall (e.g. a millisecond) in the processing pipeline outside the control of the process, the effects of that propagate through the rest of the system. It become very difficult to guarantee robust behaviors, safety, or resource bounds when code can stop running at arbitrary points in time. While the GC is happening, finite queues are filling up. Protecting against this requires conservative architectures that leave a lot of performance on the table. If all non-deterministic behavior is asynchronous, we can optimize away many things that can never happen.

A lot of modern performance comes down to exquisite orchestration, scheduling, and timing in complex processes. A GC is like a giant, slow chaos monkey that randomly destroys the choreography that was so carefully created to produce that high-performance.
My first impression is, that just the life! Everything like this, need some luck to run out.

then, I realized that is about productivity. Give good things more chances/resources, is the key of productivity, for a product, a community, or a race.
I understand that way of thinking - my take is that Manufacturing Consent is mostly right but practically boils down to “American’s want American media organizations to have a pro-America bias”.

That fact that international media is easily accessible is a good counter-balance to this problem. In addition, you are starting to see the desires of the public changing - e.g. you much more frequently read/hear anti-American articles/opinions from the American progressive news media.
But would you say the same about humanity if we stumbled across an alien culture and were somehow able to communicate with them?

If some people want to pay for books (and they do) then they will. If they don't want to pay (and some don't) then they won't. My vote is for freeing as much information as possible so people can have options at their fingertips without draining their bank accounts.
Its more likely that they calculated that the spike in ecommerce that was caused by people quarantineing in their houses would not last, but it would still remain higher than how it was. (And its likely that it did, when you adjust it to the economy).

But nobody seems to have anticipated the Ukraine war and the sancitons hitting back the West itself, exacerbating inflation in the US and creating record inflation in Europe.

That really kicked the balls of the tech industry. And judging from national currencies being used more in international trade now, its likely that the old environment with infinite cash and little to no inflation in the US will not return. Since all the dollars that are not being used by countries that are now trading in their own currencies seem to flow back to the US, causing inflation.

Its likely that this may end the high cash influx, bloated stock share value economy and make the old format non-workable. But in the long run when the inflation and the prices settle, ecommerce should still be a profitable activity. Except that now companies would be valued on what actual revenue they are making, instead of the elusive and unpredictable potential value into the next decade which may or may not come.

In short, less WeWorks, more companies with an actual business model that works immediately or in visible future.
You miss the point. The problem are not arithmetic operations.
Designing the calendar does mean "give a name to every month forever".

You could also (a) just design the mechanics of the calendars (leap days, duration of months, etc), but keep the month names the same, or (b) change names too, which could get renamed again later.
My library also has a fairly robust eBook collection via Libby.
>I think I would struggle to adjust to the Japanese work culture in order to establish residence within these constraints.

Or you can work at an American company like Google (not sure if they're still hiring though; I thought I read they had a company-wide hiring freeze).
Right but this is a matter of prioritization of resources more than some nefarious plot by the US government to control the US media.
Rust in a web dev shop would be a huge premature optimzation smell for me.

Most public web apps are expected to be up pretty much all of the time, which today, means cloud hosting and horizontally scalable architecture. In such a setup, I don't see how squeezing every last drop of performance is worth it. When I can just change a number and get more instances, choosing the language with higher cognitive load is going reduce any cost savings due to lower resource usage.

Doing something as mundane as writing text to a socket just doesn't need to perform all that well. Developer effort costs more than the CPU/memory.
Check your local library. Mine has a surprisingly robust eBook collection via Libby that's easy - and integrated with Amazon for delivery to my Kindle.
Hell, will the US ever give up the penny and the $1 bill? There are advantages to a cashless setup, but also real issues re: privacy and "what happens when the power goes out"...
McMaster is like the backend of an auto parts store. You tell the clerk what you need and they might ask if you want the cheap or premium version, then you pay and leave. You don't want to walk the aisles looking at stuff because you've got a dead alternator that needs to be replaced by Monday morning. Shopping at Amazon is like going to a massive department store. They've got everything but they lay out the store in a way that almost forces you to browse. You aren't in a rush because you are just looking at kitchen gadgets and might also be interested in buying a new pillow.

McMaster-Carr is an incredible example of how an existing physical-product distributor with a vaunted historical operations department, when faced with moving into the e-commerce world, could choose one of two paths:

- Build an online presence cheaply because you can rely on your historical offline operations to paper over any shortcomings in the online system.

- Build an online presence with the same ethos, standards, creativity, and long-term continued investment with which you built your offline operations to be your competitive advantage in the first place.

There aren't many legacy organizations that successfully digitized with that second path in mind, at least not at first - McMaster, B&H Photo, and Sweetwater come to mind as notable exceptions. It's a useful thought experiment, I think, even for those working on startups and green-field projects.
I'm a person, and legend does not have that connotation for me, it means "it was only handed down orally so we can't be sure". I'm sure my idiolect is unusual in that regard, but I stand by my "for most people".
What do bot-prevention mechanisms like that mean for crawlers, such as Google bot, or apps such as Discord trying to get titles of pages linked in chats? Are websites enabling such functionality less searchable? In my experience Vultr website keeps nagging me to solve captchas on Linux (but not Mac or Windows), but they still seem to show up in search results.
This was before Infrastructure-as-Code, Immutable Infrastructure, etc were popularized. 99% of the time, on greenfield systems, you shouldn't have to use Puppet or Chef or Ansible.

Runbooks-as-Code is also a great practice, similar to the notebook shown here. But they should be limited to one-time actions, like triage, recovery, etc.
I found the comment about the speed of the Go compiler... surprising. Fast compile times has always been an important objective for compiled languages, and while Go has a reputation for fast compiler times, in my experience, the Go compiler's performance doesn't seem particularly impressive. Indeed, for a lot of code bases, C, D, even dirty old Pascal compilers, and for a lot of code bases (as in ones, not heavily using template foo), even C++ compilers compile as fast if not faster than Go when you disengage the optimizer. Aside from compiling C++/Rust/Ada/Haskell programs laden with tons of templates/generics/type-foo, I can't think of a compiler that seemed perceptibly "slower" than Go. Now, Go's optimizer is surprisingly quick, but then, the binaries it produces aren't particularly optimized.
> You can still enable these protocols per user

From what I understand, Microsoft will disable basic authentication starting January 2023, and the next few months are sort of a "grace period" to migrate to Microsoft's new authentication protocol [1]:

> On September 1, 2022, we announced there will be one final opportunity to postpone this change. Tenants will be allowed to re-enable a protocol once between October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022. Any protocol exceptions or re-enabled protocols will be turned off early in January 2023, with no possibility of further use. See the full announcement at Basic Authentication Deprecation in Exchange Online – September 2022 Update.

> Microsoft are disabling these and Basic Authentication as most users don’t use them and it’s the primary vector for sending emails from compromised accounts

Even if most users don't use basic auth, I don't see why Microsoft has to disable it altogether. For people who want to keep using legacy clients, it's not too hard to force the usage of application-specific passwords.

I worked on some really vapid projects that were technically very challenging and got to work on them with extremely talented cross functional teams and still felt like crap doing them. It's fun when you're in the thick of it but I feel no joy or satisfaction looking back on any of it. Working on meaningful projects is the only thing that does it for me now.
Yeah, and in my experience it's also about the pattern. There isn't a rule or anything. 1-2 short stints, totally fine. 3-4 short stints but with one or more 5+ year stints, probably also fine. 5 jobs, never for more than 9 months? Whatever is going on, it doesn't seem crazy to expect that it's going to manifest at job #6 as well.
Humans evolved as omnivores. Why try to change that for no specific reason?

Vegetarianism sounds like the wrong answer to a different problem altogether.

[If you think that vegetarianism without reducing human numbers is a solution to the Climate Change Problem, that is not a suitable answer.

What is required is to reduce total emissions, and the way to do that is to have less humans producing emissions. One of the ways of reducing the number of humans is to limit births to 'one child per woman'.]
I like Brave's Goggles idea on that front, and for other stuff as well, like curating knowledge domain-specific site boosting lists.

I don't think this is a material limitation. Anecdotally, we have few issues with sensibly blending C++20 and Rust. Any exported APIs will need to be circumscribed anyway for integrating with other languages.

There are many documents dating from ancient Rome (and earlier) that we don't consider historical because of their fantastic or religious nature. The set of documents you refer to are self-contradictory and describe supernatural events that no other author recorded.

Hell, historians take Herodotus with a grain of salt, and he was an actual historian.

Yeah, what I'd learned as a kid was that Julius and Augustus inserted themselves in the middle to turn it from 10 to 12 months, which is why the latter months are named wrong, but comments up above are saying they just renamed months.
