The obvious answer (new job) being off the table, have you had a look at the philosophy of Stoicism? It's about recognising the boundary between the things you can control (your opinions, your actions) and the things you can't (everything that everyone else does) and thereby come to some peaceful coexistence with a chaotic and challenging world, and also learn to handle difficult situations in a constructive (to your mental health) way. I think this would be a good fit for you in dealing with your stress over your lack of agency (e.g. "I see so much wrong but I can't do anything about it." - indeed you can't and the problem you have correctly identified is not that per se, but how you feel about it).
I used to work in eeg and eye tracking software (for neuro-motor rehabilitation and control of robotic arms). Using gaze for fine control is very difficult and terribly unnatural due to saccades and general scene scanning. One easy way to demonstrate how difficult it is is to have a cursor appear at the point of gaze. You're vision "chases" the cursor away from your target like it does a floater. Controlling anything directly with gaze is very very hard.
>>In democracies, we don't just randomly arrest people,

There are tons of proof and examples of this being false. Lots of example of police targeting people then finding the law they broke, instead of starting with a crime and finding who did it
I would start seeing a therapist. Someone who can help me unpack my feelings and thoughts. Get to the “why” and also guide me to find my own way of coping with the environment. And just to vent.

Questions that I would explore with a therapist after reading your post - my two cents:

Is the actual work or the people that are draining me?

Why don’t I feel autonomy - is it a micromanaging boss or do I need a lot of freedom?
How does my coworker feel about the situation?

How was my last employer?

Why do I have difficulties accepting things that are wrong?

Depending on how you answer these questions you can take different actions. Maybe you’ll find a new perspective that makes you situation more manageable. Maybe you’ll find old habits that you can change.

I wish you the best of luck!
"[...] If you don’t have kids then you’re lucky [...]"

As a lucky man with 3 kids in my 30s, I strongly disagree with your statement.

Exercise is good, but it's my family that keeps me from caring too much about work related stuff.
' [...] I'm treated as a resource to be "used" [...]'

That might not be a great feeling, but it goes both ways. Treat them as your source of income, nothing more.
Hiding in plain sight:

> In 1972, Congress passed Title IX — a landmark statute to promote gender equality in higher education. Quite rightly, too: At the time, there was a 13 percentage-point gap in the proportion of bachelor's degrees going to men compared to women. Just a decade later, the gap had closed. By 2019, the gender gap in bachelor's degrees was 15 points — wider than it had been in 1972, but in the opposite direction. Today, women far outperform men in the American education system.

When debugging a system, you look for what changed. The above change may have had necessary components, but like any change, it also had unwanted side effects.
There's no need to stop caring. And clearly you do care. What you need to do is stop feeling responsible for things you have no power over. Because that's what's stressing you out.

Change your perspective. Instead of focusing on the things that are wrong that you can't fix, focus on the things that you did fix, or that you have a good chance of fixing in the near future. They may be small things, but at least you can leave the world a little better you found it every day.
Why not use the right term, then? "Coloquial" shouldn't be a thing with technical terms.

Race conditions are hard enough to explain to people and misusing the term just makes it more difficult.
A.I. in general, when tied to police making is, which is the main offering of palantir (count their press releases that mention it) is a way to justify ends.

want to continue to subjulgate a minority?

pre 70s: racial laws

70s: science says this totaly not racially inclined test will select the best humans for a job.

80s: red zoning and other purely financial reasons

...

A.I.: the "data" says so.

with AI, just like the other methods, you can justify anything. juicy contracts to your brother in law firm? the data says so. a tank for your police dept? the data says so.

That is what palantir sells. insidious justification, disguised as a dashboard.
Yes, this is just how CSAM detection works.
Cool game. I support and sport grey and gray hairs.

The increasing number of words means increasing the length of the game, which seems like too high a price to pay for errors, even when errors are initially unavoidable.

You might want to copy Wordle’s word list https://static.nytimes.com/newsgraphics/2022/01/25/wordle-so... since it avoids merely plural words (like PLUGS) that aren’t as interesting to guess imho
I’m not OP, but I’m guessing the idea is that if someone requests 10 non-existent pages in a row, they’re likely not a normal user making a mistake, so we should rate limit them.
This is an extremely cynical and conspiratorial thought, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Conservatives haven't made a deal to hand the next elections over to Labour in return for helping them get rid of Boris, and with this interim sacrificial government of Truss to ram through a bunch of things that even Tories would think it would be political suicide to publicly support.

Then Starmer can glide in, and do things that the Tories could never get away with doing, like privatizing healthcare.

> The added bonus is that if Labour gets a PR-like voting system implemented, it might be harder for any one (or two) parties to dominate politics and we could focus on goal-orientated politics. Maybe.

I doubt the PLP will ever show any serious effort to get this done. There's nothing they hate more than voting, and if there's any consistent policy from Labour it's that voting is an unfair commentary on things that average people are neither qualified nor deserving to discuss. They spend a significant amount of time as individuals trying to find people to remove the vote from.
They did this with Resident Evil Village - I thought that would be an awesome experience to play it on my underpowered work laptop - it just didn't work though, not sure if it didn't like my browser or their servers were overloaded.
I will bite. I dont think you care as much as you claim (or think) you do. Its likely you are not respected amongst your peers (for whatever reason) and you feel alienated. I've seen too many employees cite "lack of autonomy" because they want re-write code in Julia (for example) instead of prioritizing tasks they were hired to do. They think management doesn't "get it".

> But my personality finds it difficult to ignore things that are wrong

That's what you think. Maybe you are a man-child throwing a tantrum? The tech world is filled with such folks.

Even if everything you said is accurate, you will be happier if you dont play the victim card.
> What I was saying was that those drugs have been proving effective regardless of mutation status.

I don't believe this is the case in general. Indeed, all cancer drugs fail sometimes, and there has to be something different about the cancers they fail on. If not the mutation status, then what?
> It's not that simple.

I agree that it isn't that simple. If it were, it would have been settled decades ago.

> The framing is identical.

Firstly, that isn't what framing means (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framing_(visual_arts)), and in this case the framing isn't the same, it's radically different.

Secondly, assuming it were, then what?

There are maybe 25 or so elements of a photo that make a photo unique (framing, composition, lighting, color, grain, etc).

Arguing that because one of them (framing) is matched in a painting means that the entire painting needs to license the original doesn't make any sense to me.

The only similarity is that the subject is copied very closely, but that element of the photo doesn't belong to the photographer anyway.

The only identical bits between the two images is the single thing that isn't owned by either party.

When it comes to courts examining copyright infringement (which this would be), they tend to do so very objectively: Each element is examined in isolation, and if there are many identical elements, only then does it make sense to examine the image as a whole.

In this case, when it finally gets to trial (if it already hasn't done so), the defense lawyer is going to systematically go through every single element that makes up a photo, and compare that element (hue, for example) to the alleged infringement.

The other party is going to stick to the argument that the article presented, namely that it was used as a basis for the painting.

It’s been obvious for decades that RMS has his flaws as a software architect and product manager. Make him more perfect, address all the issues raised by the TFA about C++ AST access in emacs, and it wouldn’t change anything about whether he should be shunned: the man is a sexist, harassing creep. There’s a lot of talk here about him being a man of principle — let’s stipulate that’s true — the conclusion is, he has no sense that the most important principle is to treat others well.
In my experience, which may not match yours, I care too much about work when:

A: I'm desperate for the income or health insurance
B: I've got no or little fulfilment outside of the job

With A a solution is to accept the need and act to slowly remove the need.

With B a solution is to get out and live. Do things that obligate you to be present, and out of your head. Echoing the comment about exercise, but make it fun. Play games with friends, play with dogs, even if you don't have one, explore a big park, jump in cold water. Anything to shake out your head, not as a solution, rather as it's own joy. Anything that you would enjoy even on the day your job flies out the window.
As a rule whenever the question starts with "do people consider", the answer is going to be: some do, others don't.

If you wish to "look into" Lisp, do the work: look at a bunch of resources, skim them, pick the ones that look intersting.

Asking whether to look into something is sometimes just a way to procrastinate. Questions like yours (not just about Lisp, but definitely about Lisp as well) are asked every day, and answers are (i) repetitive and (ii) abound. Just do the work.
I don't think so. Firefox has been on a mission for some time to try to market itself as the safe browser despite Chromium being open source and have roughly the same telemetry enabled by default in both. Shutting down a consumer service like Stadia isn't all bad.. in all honesty I think it is the most disappointing to people who used it on a regular basis and not some person to come by and give their two cents about how they feel Google wronged them for something unrelated.

People liked Stadia and that is why this is hard on some people but the are not going to jump on the Google hate train over every dramatic event that is often just hyperbole. They'll remember Google for creating something awesome and ahead of it's time, and Google may actually revamp that to scale to personal gaming that runs on local hardware instead.

I believe a lot of game services streaming services just aren't that profitable. The hardware required to stream games to consumers in HD or 4k is expensive. Heck, just a few months ago I was looking at graphics cards and the lower end were still priced around $600 for a modern consumer graphics card. Then having a bunch of servers and ways to dedicate those to users using some form of graphics sharing and doing to with very little latency cost a fortune and probably didn't produce the revenue because of that.

I'd people are leaving Google or this then they can certainly try make an appealing argument about how Stadia damaged them but that Netflix, Hulu, etc don't ever pivot their plans and pricings
Yeah, agree completely. Shouldn't be called police station, more like a spy operations office.

Sporadic gamers who don't have the space or money to have a $400 console permanently using space in their living rooms. I played RDR2 on Stadia for 2 months. Then didn't use it again until I got my next game, a few months later.

I rather pay a bit more for games without the burden of having a console, or a gaming pc to be honest.

It solved a problem for me. Until my kids are not old enough to have a PS (whatever the number is in 6 years) I won't have a console able to run top tier games
I find the HP Reverb G2 to be incredibly comfortable and can wear it for hours. I do have an air conditioning unit in my VR room which keeps me cool while moving during that time.

The Quest 2 is the lest comfortable thing I've ever put on my face and due to its popularity, seems to skew perspectives around how comfortable VR can be.
This seems like a very nicely done implementation.

One negative: I don't think people realize how easy it will be to inadvertently include server side files in client side bundles.

The technical approach mitigates this and is well designed. But simply by blurring the lines it might result in sever side config bundled to the client.

(Easy to mitigate, just add a line to server side stuff which and destructs if it detects wrong environment)
> First, there was no clearly outlined vision for what Optimus would do, nor much justification for why Tesla is building the robot the in this specific way. There was no decisive justification for why to use a humanoid robot (rather than e.g. just an arm), no clarity about the first big application, no clear go-to-market strategy, and no clear product differentiator.

There wasn't much to the demo and none of this was stated. I myself assumed that the context was to replace the remaining human labourers at Tesla factories and sell to other factories that already have the 'just an arm' automation. In that light I do see it as differentiated--it was never meant to be as general a solution but achieve better results/cost in specific contexts.
Ha! He'a new dad — he's just got a challenging and extremely time-consuming new 'side gig' (more of a new main gig), and I doubt he needs another one at this point.

(to OP:) I would talk to your managers and see what challenges would be interesting to you and beneficial to the company. Wait until you've adjusted to the being a dad before you go changing careers.

If staff were told early it would be at the top of HN and Blind 10 minutes later. Same for if developers were told to wind down porting. In both cases, customers would be upset about being able to spend money on a service without being told it's circling the drain. There's no clean way of doing it without telling everyone at once and in that case, immediately shutting the store and giving a deadline in the future is the option that gives the most advance warning.

I also guess there are legal complications about telling employees early. Google employees are Google investors.
I don't care where the files are. You're fixating on an implementation detail.

I want commands that achieve my goals. Where they get their info from I couldn't care less.

It seems you're more interested in reverse-engineering your system than actually doing something with it. Which is your right of course, but surely you can see how that can't be the priority of everyone.
You can't defend inefficiency. The reason to have an NHS isn't to have artisan healthcare, it's to have free healthcare. The fact is you have a system that is large enough to totally justify doing this stuff in house, but instead the work is going to private firms doing the least for the most.

People are complicated
We are complicated

We often don't even understand ourselves, why do we feel the way we do
But we don't have to understand others, to be respectful to them
I feel, the thing is that this person, has yet to accept themselves, which.. at times, can take a lot of time

O well, I might also be missing a bit of context, because I can't see the original comment, as it seems to be replaced with a dot, so I apologize in that case. Sorry.
I think a combination of gaze and controllers (like the quest controllers) seem more natural, unless it's for AR and you're out and about.
" What you need to do is stop feeling responsible for things you have no power over."

I believe that's a wrong mentality, hence that's actually how my Ph.D. advisior does to me and its pretty painful on my end. My advisor does exactly your advice as he just stop caring about me and focus on his projects success. Probably he thinks that "I have no power over my student's success or process so I just stop being responsible about it to be not stress out.".

I think you have power over to help others and communicate the way you feel about your situation right away.
save your money in cash.

once you have 10k or so saved then consider putting /some/ additional income into an index fund every month. probably a better use is reinvesting into yourself and increasing your skills.

i would stay away from forex and options and buying individual stocks.

i would recommend learning accounting and finance, perhaps taking a class at a junior college. apply the knowledge to reading financial statements of companies and deriving knowledge about their operations. i do it as a hobby. i occasionally invest in individual stocks in this manner. but i wouldnt race into putting my handful of dollars into the markets.

cash is king in this environment.
How are you depreciating the MRI machine? Why is the year one cost so high? I would’ve expected the MRI machine to depreciate over a decade.
Thanks! I've not tried to figure out the maths of the difficulty dynamic: more words is harder, but it also increases the chance of a letter guess being correct which seems to balance. In-family testing suggests that it's usually solvable. I agree on the plurals. There is a limit of 3 on the number of words that can end with any particular letter.
> This isn't exactly what he described, but it'd make me pretty worried if I were him.

Admitting when we are wrong should be the default, not a cause for worry. That someone is willing to do so in this age should to be celebrated (or at the very least encouraged).
Curious, how many others are finding the comments here depressing? All the way from feminism is a plot by elite men, through fear of emasculation (literal castration, or declining testosterone), through men losing out because of incentivised quotas, and.... so on. Many of which are portrayed as "the problem" without any scrutiny, or appeal to evidence, or just a cursory consideration of whether these opinions actually take the conversation in productive directions.

It looks a lot like the intersection of the Dunning-Kruger effect and (deep breath, I had to look this up) ultracrepidarianism [0] and oh yeah, fragile egos.

It frankly makes me lose yet more confidence in HN as a place of remotely well-conceived opinion.

One of the easiest ways to stop caring is to believe in determinism.

There are options here.
You can take a simplistic approach where everything is defined by higher forces - God(s).

Alternatively, you can believe in a highly complex world with ever-increasing entropy, but nevertheless, an organized and predictable world defined by the laws of physics.

In both scenarios, there is no free will, hence no responsibility.

Agree 100%. I am curious what fruit company has in their sleeve.
You sound to me like you are burning out.

The only cure I'm aware that works reliable is to quit. Alternatively, reading up about work-burnout could be an idea. Meditation, working out, eating and living healthy, and being mindful about your thoughts when you're /not/ at work (for example just, dismissing thoughts and feelings about work as "not useful" or asking them politely to go away) could work.

If you're too deep in, where the burn-out have many similarities with a severe depression, it's probably safest to see a therapist, like some others suggest.
