I agree the first two points are more about understanding trade-offs - but the result is still focus. Overall I thinks it’s a good articles about achieving goals. Focus can be an overused word, but still works well here IMO
The information you provide as part of PreCheck is all stuff the US government already likely posesses on you.
It’s been solved by companies like Gogo and Vianet using Ku, Ka and L band antennas on planes. StarLink will package their antenna in a line replaceable unit (LRU).

You can still have children, in a polygamous arrangement. It can be done if you are willing to pay and perhaps travel. Your spouse will hopefully understand. The window hasn't closed, that is an incorrect assumption.
Why is this on hackernews right now? It's an old program, closed source, hasn't been updated in ages, and the author abandoned it long ago because he doesn't like people using it to recreate tables. This seems like a shameless plug indeed.
Each AWS account can have it's own support plan.. for a while we had some accounts with a mix of Enterprise and business support.. in fact, every child we made for business support for a while even though we had enterprise support across our AWS organizations
They learned that from outsourcing companies. Replacing people with less-experienced ones until you notice, then let you pay for additional people, or QA, or project management.
On the other hand, it's possible that one is simply "depressed" (sad) because one can't achieve ones goals.

The solution, then, is to figure out a way to achieve them.

The live jamming thing seems cool, though it's been done before. The NFT and "web 3" nonsense turns me off of it instantly, though.

Ableton Note is more like a notepad for music making that you can easily export to Ableton Live to build out the track, much like how GarageBand for iOS serves as a notepad for Logic Pro X users.
"Starlink aviation" you say ? https://starlinkaviation.com/
This is directly not on topic but reminds me that for most photo-editing Photoshop is overkill. Photoshop is more then adjusting channels and blurring/sharpening few areas.
If you can edit this. Edit out the “you” to “people”. It doesn’t look like an attack then. I see your comment is greying out so it’s getting downvotes.

Having diff perspectives is cool so it would be unfortunate for yours to get flagged because it seems too aggressive.
First of all usage of Firefox is mostly desktop. On iOS you don't even have a real choice. Just looking at desktop doubles the share.
Then you have different usage in different countries. Looking at desktop in Europe you get above 10%.
Last I'm never sure you skewed the Firefox stats are. Often 3rd party trackers are blocked and I have yet to find a comparison of client side vs. server side tracking. Not saying the Firefox numbers are wrong, just that they aren't certain.
It could highlight differences for you. Current models already seem competent enough to take into account a lot of context and not to alter the meaning.
I wonder how far back their detection algorithms go, whether they still have code checking for iloveyou.exe and the like.

I'm sure some of the stuff on there will contain old malware code, likely innocuous nowadays but still in the definitions.
I don't mind that the show is not so faithful. What I call out is that it isn't believable. Character building is shallow and predicatble. Everything looks staged. Nothing is shocking and everything is blah.

> ...they were unhappy with Jackson's adaptation.

For a summary of the criticisms of Jackson's interpretation, the only article I know of is "JACKSON, PETER" in Michael Drout's J.R.R. Tolkien Encyclopedia (2007). Maybe someone else has a better reference.
I've been getting a lot more problems with typos, even on second or third attempt. I'm inclined to blame the OS for that as I'm pretty careful when I do the corrections. I haven't found the experience getting worse in other respects, but I don't like it at the best of times.
I'm at peace with it.

Neat! Is this via third party services or Amazon itself? Curious about details on the retrade market.
Focus is something a lot of people talk about, but few do well.

The article illustrates this nicely at the end, via the two sets of statements.

Often, people makes statements that sounds a bit like this: "Oh yeah. We do need to focus on XYZ. Mary will add this to her responsibilities." This is the kind of "fooling yourself" that the article talks about. That is not focus. It's the opposite of focus. It's spreading yourself thinner than you were before.

True focus requires you to say what you will NOT be doing. It requires a bold statement on what you will deliberately neglect. That takes courage.

In the article, the second set of statement has that ingredient. It's not easy.
I've also mentioned this in a separate comment in the post but reposting here for visibility:

To clarify Zulip let's you export their conversations and then render it by generating a static HTMl similar to https://leanprover-community.github.io/archive/ You'd have to use https://github.com/zulip/zulip-archive to achieve. You can see it in the Caveats sections in their documentation https://zulip.com/help/public-access-option#caveats They are working on it here: https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/21881
Zulip lets you browse conversations of public conversations but that is very different than the app being natively search engine friendly and indexable.

The difference between Zulip's implementation and Linen is that you don't need a separate UI when someone finds a link in Google. If you find a link through Google you get a dynamic real time experience instead of a static page.

If you google site:rust-lang.zulipchat.com you won't see any results. If you do the same with site:slack-chats.kotlinlang.org you'll see at least 20,000 results

Do you guys plan on out of the box support Linux with VPE?
my work starts around 5 am so my personal time starts at 3 am. One of my colleagues has two children a few years older than mine so his bed time is a little bit later- he goes to bed at 11 pm and then wakes up at 2am to do his personal stuff - running a minimum 80km/week non-negotiable. i personally get around 5 hours a day of sleep which is manageable but there are times that's not possible.

i think parenting is actually alright if you don't need to sleep. i have a pet theory that my son inherited my ability to get by on very little sleep and it can be pretty aggravating at times!

some hobbies are definitely no longer possible so if you are thinking of starting a family but consider the annual pilgrimage to tomorrowland or ultra (and all the trips ahem that go with it) mandatory then obviously, think twice. those i know who continue to do things like these with children clearly have someone to offload their parenting duties to- and that is something that you have to discuss with your partner before you move forward on such a huge event in your life.

The IDA decompiler is just generally more complete and more polished than Ghidra for the architectures it targets.

One issue with Ghidra's that I keep hitting is its poor support for amd64 SIMD. There's a good example at <https://github.com/NationalSecurityAgency/ghidra/issues/249>:

0000000000000000 <intrinsics>:
0: f3 0f 1e fa endbr64
4: 0f c6 ca 1b shufps $0x1b,%xmm2,%xmm1
8: 0f 58 c1 addps %xmm1,%xmm0
b: c3 retq

IDA produces great decompilation:

__m128 __fastcall intrinsics(__m128 a1, __m128 a2, __m128 a3) {
return _mm_add_ps(a1, _mm_shuffle_ps(a2, a3, 27));
}

The Ghidra output is a mishmash of CONCAT pseudo-macros.
Perhaps “greener” would be a better term and it is at least more sustainable than oil

That brings to mind the quadrivium --- the second part of the seven liberal arts:

Arithmetic: quantity.

Geometry: quantity in space.

Music: quantity in time.

Astronomy: quantity in space and time.

Back in my uni days, the student centre featured a painting which was a representation of a musical piece --- something classical, possibly Beethoven's Fifth. It displayed in space (or more accurately, in a plane), what was usually performed over time. The painting was more conceptually interesting than visually appealing, though I like the idea.

Whilst I think you have a point re: images, there are often those which reward a more measured appreciation. A "where's Waldo" type visual puzzle might be a more trivial example but there are images which reveal themselves over time.

There's also what works leave us with. Text ultimately conveys, well, textual or verbal information. Speech is similar. Both can deliver a mood, though that's not essential. Music on the other hand seems to me to be far more emotional. Images in their simplest form are literally iconographic, more representing something than portraying it, though with detail they tend toward the latter. (Plastic arts such as sculpture seem similarly iconographic, and of course, the original icons were often such portrayals.) Video and drama seem to me more related to music than texts, working on moods and emotions. That though is occurring to me as I write this, as well as the realisation that both often rely heavily on a soundtrack. In the case of opera or musicals, to a dominating extent, less so in a straight stage play. And of course, on television, there's the infamous laugh track to guide us in our emotional response to a sitcom, standing in for the immersive live-audience experience.

Back to the suggestion: the idea of being able to autotune a text, so to speak, seems ... possible, now or soon, with advances in AI, GPT3, and the like. But as rocqua said, far harder to take in at a glance as compared with visual or video arts.
Your last sentence contradicts the first.

It depends on what you have been doing the past two years, especially around the lockdowns. I've used the time to set up an extremely nice home office in our big now-renovated apartment. It is nice here. Any regular office would be a downgrade from that.

Driving to the office in a car is bad for the environment (particulate matter causes allergies and sometimes cancer), it wastes everyone's time and it makes the cities worse. Detach a little from your individual situation and see how weird it was to commute to a far-away city and building and then usually use ssh to log in to servers that are usually not in that building/state in the first place. (And if you use public transportation, you can get coronavirus again for no reason)

>Have I been under some weird form of Stockholm Syndrom where I actually enjoyed something that was pure torture to most?

It's not about it being torture. It's about priorities. How and where you want to spend your days. We are mortal--that's what the past two years made crystal clear. Very mortal.

>And finally, I feel no one else is realizing that they are happily hacking away at the amazingly well-paid branch they're sitting on. As soon as a company's IT department is practically fully remote, why should they page a German wage for someone who is a face on a screen, when they can pay a fraction for that same face broadcasted from a few hundred kilometers further east or south? German is hardly used in business context here anyway and lower-wage countries within ±3 hours timezones abound.

It goes both ways. You can also work for companies for world-competitive rates.
I have zero reason to fear someone from an eastern country catching up to my 20 year career and 10 year university education.

You should change your mindset on this unfounded fear of being replaced by a cheaper worker. You are presumably a software engineer. Capable software engineers are one of the most well-paid and sought-after professions in the world; seniors are earning way more than doctors now.

>I know that "the office" is a bad place for a lot of people. There may be product managers that ignore the noise-cancelling headphone stop-sign

Yep.

Also, open-plan offices/buildings which make you unable to focus on anything.

> I absolutely do get that for some people (fresh parents, people living at home to take care of their parents etc.) remote work is a real blessing.

For most senior engineers, remote work is a real blessing.

Also, if you do remote work, make sure that the company actually knows how to do remote work. Lots of companies are learning resistant and of course remote work sucks if they still want you to work synchronously, their video chat sucks or is non-existant, their VPN doesn't work half the time and they leadership suddenly disappeared at the beginning of 2021.
It's still not uncommon.

At a certain point high rates become a tool for incumbency not a method to raise revenue i.e. if you have a loophole you don't care what the rate is.
To be fair, a lot of those consumer rights had to be realized and invented first - after the corporations went too far. Think GDPR and co, if companies weren't so thirsty for danger and loading webpages full of trackers, it would never have (needed to) be made.
Reducing cloud costs should be a one year exercise. There should be a department level incentive, meaning if the whole department/org meets its goal they get the incentive. There should also be a team level incentive to encourage individual teams to find cost savings.

Commissions, metrics, and goals and heavily used by sales across many companies. I’m sure there is some abuse but it is still heavily used.

For some things AliExpress can hardly be beat, and when a small cheap part bought there repairs a much more complex appliance here, it can, counter-intuitively, even be the most sustainable thing to do.

It does take some getting used to the platform.

> […] including domestically.

That's the key thing to understand. This isn't about dumping e-waste on foreigners specifically, it's just capitalism at its most unregulated and the same crap you can buy from AliExpress the Chinese can buy too on Taobao.
Of course they do. To China, Russia is a cheap mafia-owned gas station. It can no longer provide any real business opportunities thanks to sanctions; see how the Russian part of Belt and Road got shut down and everything moved south to Kazakhstan.

Long term, Russia used to be a strategic problem to China, as its huge, aggressive direct neighbor. This problem has now been solved, but helping Russia develop would risk it becoming a threat again in a generation or two.

Pregnancy success is women dependent (egg quality is the problem, and leads to increasing fertilitization and miscarriage rates) and start to drop at the beginning of one’s 30s and gets really bad in late thirties and near impossible in early 40s. Every women is different and some have earlier falloff in success rates. The moral of the story is don’t want until you are 30 to have kids. Have them young and it is easy. Wait and it gets really emotionally hard or impossible or expensive or a combination of all three.

Hyperweb[1] does something similar and I prefer their UX.

The new Arc Browser[2] also has something similar implemented as a boost[3] (boost are short snippet-like extensions).

Just goes to show how less reliable Google Search is becoming because of ads and bot results. Platforms like reddit (I append 50% of my searches with "reddit") bring a more human touch. Totally agree with Paul's thoughts on reddit[4].

Titles don’t mean much. I used to be a “Test Associate” and put “QA Engineer” on my resume. Whenever I get a title like Software Engineer IV, I just put Sr. Software Engineer on my resume. If I was leading a team as a developer, I’d have no problem calling myself Lead Developer, regardless of what my title was. As long as your experience maps to what you’re selling yourself as, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.

The only time I’d be mildly concerned would be in reference checks and background checks. I just tell my reference what I’ve been calling myself so it’s not a surprise and put my official title in the background check.

If your grossly misrepresenting yourself, make it through a subpar interview process, and you manage to get the job, you’ll simply be miserable & stressed out because your underperforming & worried about getting fired.
I don't understand how can a be classified as a Mary Sue if she was wrong about every single thing and every thing she did backfired or failed. And this was pretty much telegraphed by the average writing since episode 01.
>This may open things up to people who can do that, but lack the piece of paper.

Yeah, I can't see why someone _would_ do it if they _could_ but aren't being paid well. The problem is motivating people with the skills to want to work... and it's hard to do that at borderline poverty entry-level wages.
You're using the phrase "enterprise productivity" to describe what I think are some of the optional features of Office, and at least some of which are probably a bad idea.

If it wasn't substantial you wouldn't need to exercise caution. I, too, have bought considerable amounts of stuff from DX, AliX, from Chinese vendors on eBay etc., and it's almost always a gamble, in particular when it comes to electronics and electronic components.

I kinda agree (and I wrote the cited article) but as soon as you pick a number (2^40? 2^64? 2^80? 2^128?) you are painting a huge target on your forehead, when it's better to teach people that the point is the asymmetries (plural) and how you use, combine and compose them.
> I’ve tried to work on different projects and things that are more in line with my interests, but that hasn’t really seemed to help

I think once you hit burnout, you need to completely stop doing the activity entirely to really recover. Switching to a less draining variant helps before you hit full on burnout.

If you are in a position to do so I'd recommend taking 6 months out of work, and go and do something where you have no pressure to be productive. That might be personal projects. It might be travelling the world. If you have any hobbies or interests that you usually don't get as much time as you like pursue, then that might be a good starting point.

A 2 week vacation might also help if such a long break isn't practical for you.
Not really. This is why financial entrepreneurs "acquire" things like brands, IP, games, software, ... not to maintain its quality, but to milk the goodwill built up, and extract money out of it. To milk greatly inflated expectations of the market for money. To be able to create large amounts of revenue using standard/generic efforts (I'd say substandard, but it's not substandard, really, it's just an unremarkable amount of effort).

Given the deal Amazon made (and that it's a one-off), can you name one reason they would be afraid of destroying the reputation of the lord of the rings universe? Doesn't damage them at all.

Besides, let's face it, most of the value in Middle Earth comes from the books. Yes the films brought in a lot of people for a short while, but even the films don't make the impressions the books made on many fans.

Sadly, it makes sense, especially to business MBA's that fear one thing above all else: risk (mostly risk for themselves personally, but entire boards of companies are known to make the same reasoning). This is exactly the behaviour you'll find all over any wall street firm, which is the environment Jeff Bezos "grew up in". And sorry to say, you have to admit: it can work pretty well.
Really interesting stuff, well-presented. I was a little surprised and disappointed that color-blindness was not mentioned at all (even if to apologize for leaving it out of a complex posting) since for me, with moderate deuteranopia, the “dark yellow”/brown is indistinguishable in practice from darker shades of green and red, unless the color field is very large or I focus on them very closely, and so hopefully would play into decisions on this sort of design system.
