I've sacrificed my entire career so that I can take be the primary caregiver of the kids, and my wife can concentrate 100% on her career. During the pandemic, I quit my job and concentrated solely on the kids, and now that the pandemic is over, I'm at a much less demanding job so that I can do all the pick ups, drop offs, homework assignments, etc.

I love it, and I feel truly lucky that my life has given me the opportunity to focus on my kids.

> It isn't fair to blame people for not putting in that effort, given the general odds in the cryptocurrency sphere.

The low-effort thing here would be to ignore this and walk away, to not leave a comment at all. Instead folks are writing out comments that Brave is a "cryptocurrency scam". It's hard for me to believe that it's too much effort to verify whether something is a scam but it's not too much effort to write a comment dismissing Brave.

This whole thread is a trash fire. Most comments are saying the same things over and over again and only a handful are even comparing Firefox and Brave. Does this really need to happen on any remotely cryptocurrency related thread? It just turns people off from using the site.

The more detailed Nature article that this report is based on is open access (no paywall) and readable here:

"Charging infrastructure access and operation to reduce the grid impacts of deep electric vehicle adoption"

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41560-022-01105-7

The suggestion to use more daytime charging is specific to California, since California's future energy trajectory is weighted toward more solar. A state like Texas which has more renewable energy output at night, from wind [1], wouldn't necessarily need more daytime charging. If California ends up installing more offshore wind than currently projected, that could also change the optimal charging strategy.

Brave is already at 60 million monthly active users, and growing. Firefox is 200M MAU, and declining.

This is a thoughtful and helpful answer.

The key is to find out about yourself first, and only then decide what you want to do. If you have not found your inner peace yet, it is very difficult to make good life decisions.

My own background: self-harm and substance abuse. The key to leaving these things behind was to spend time doing hard work on myself. We all hate hearing this and I hated it too at first, but there is no way for things to get better without hard work. The miracle cure will never work, no matter how hard we wish.

I got a lot out of this Buddhist lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-jiIpcYMZw

Paraphrasing the video: a cure that works instantly without having to do any work is really a person saying "give me a drug that feels good forever."
We could go even further: You don't need the mother at all; you can always just raise the baby on formula.

But that doesn't change that the mother-child bond is a unique and special thing, and that there are real benefits to breast-feeding, straight from the breast.

And beyond, the simple fact is that many women really want to be with their babies.

It's misguided to pretend that there aren't biological realities underlying these preferences. We should try to tailor our policies to meet the desires of the most people possible.

(Not, of course, in a coercive way! If a mother would like to continue working and pump, then of course she should be supported in that. In past societies maybe this was the fight that needed to be fought, but now I think it's the opposite.)

The database is stored in git, but is using GitHub actions to create a tarball of that database that is then severed as static files on GitHub pages.

It being stored in git is irrelevant to the end result. The same exact content without git could be on S3, or any other static hosting, and it would work exactly the same.

Another example, is the following map _using_ git, or is git just a method to get free hosting from Microsoft?

>Back when it was traditional that one person worked, the market recognized this reality and prices of everything made it possible to live off of one income.

No. Back when there was class power sufficient for working families to withdraw one partner from the labor market, they did so. Then that power eroded, and they were forced to send the second partner into the workforce. This also involved a wave of inflation that was never reversed for housing, healthcare, education, or energy prices.

> The interviewers expressed a wish to see me go more in depth on technologies, but I simply don't have much experience in any of them

I conduct system design interview sessions for my org. My advice is to find opportunities to work on new architectures that use pieces of infrastructure that you aren't familiar with yet. You need to know the moving parts before you can start thinking about how you'd approach designing Twitter. Theoretical knowledge can be sufficient some times, but nothing beats hands-on experience.

How to get opportunities for hands-on experience in your case?! Idk, depends on your circumstances. Maybe go for an internal transfer to work on something different. Maybe go for a less senior role and but be picky about the new tech stack. Maybe go to a less prestigious company that pays less, but offers opportunities to build new skills.

Are you trying to go for ML Engineer or SDE positions?
It's entirely possible that you take a long break from work and find that you don't want to do anything. That means that you burned out completely. Just say that in an interview - that you needed to take a serious mental break, recharge, find your new orbit, and decide what you wanted to do next.

If you look for a job a bit later, it's actually easier than looking for it right after when you find yourself unemployed ;)

> People's role in society shouldn't be determined by their biology,

Why not (even if only partially)? Biology at the individual level has physical consequences, which necessarily affects the available roles and roles chosen. It makes no sense to expect that this relationship is different in aggregate.
gain also means aquisition if you are not talking about signals

the function of "lethality" was reduced in association with the recombination, thus attenuated in summary, if you look hard enough you may be able to find gains, but overall it is attenuation.

this isnt the research you seem to be concerned about.

you should be more concerned with codon scale editing of the nonstructural features of the virus as there is a direct influence upon interferon dynamics that is understood, and can be easily influenced by editing additional codons into the code at the "region" associated with interferon cascade mediated lethality.

i will not give details here, but i you choose to look around and do some hard reading, you will discover, that the recipe for extremely lethal corona virus is not complex, but requires a lab capable of keeping and using the accesory biochemicals that allow primary sequence editing- that is to say any molecular genetics lab
Stuff like IDA refusing to have an undo feature and other dumb stuff until the market forced them to. No reason for it, just Ilfak's insistence on an outmoded philosophy of software design that does not benefit users. I do like Binja but Ghidra is free and works. I think Binja has the edge on the highest end features now. I have and use both. I like getting a second opinion on disassembly anyway. Some times they are just wrong and one tool catches something another doesn't. Can't count the hours lost to poor disassembly. Correctness is probably one of the most important features of any disassembler and reverse engineering tool.
A web server will take requests and serve them.

The web server does this by looking at the request and then running a certain set of instructions on how to serve the request.

Rather than having to build the web server, serverless is a service where you can just give the serverless provider the instructions and they will run them for you.

I hear all kinds of narratives on this. According to this EPA article, US emissions are down 20% since 2005.

Take it from a car salesman, this is often a tactic to slow down the negotiation and make you feel like your offer was a good deal for you.

I had a similar realization at a certain point. I was wasting too much time on chores, so I optimized them out of my life.

Replace all food at home with Huel. No more cooking, no more cleaning, no more shopping (no more driving to stores), no more wondering if you can go out for dinner or if food will spoil.

Make sure all your clothes can be washed together (either all tones of grey, or all colours). Make sure all your socks are the same. Do washing once a week on a weekend.

Move closer to your office to eliminate commute. You don't cook anymore, so can get a place without a good kitchen for cheap.

Suddenly you have infinite time. For what it's worth, I would socialize with people from work (and ex-coworkers) after work. 5pm, off to the pub or a restaurant. Then walk home since I'd live near the office which would be near the pub/restaurant (since we are going after work).
For sure, hence an imperfect analogy, and I have no doubt some cool projects will come out of this replit mobile app too. I just don’t see it becoming the weapon of choice for most production development environments.
I'm ambivalent about cruise ship manufacturing location, since it is a niche and luxury activity. Having read the conditions working on those ships though, the US ownership and crewing doesn't bother me.

If the purpose of the Act is to ensure US independence in maritime shipping, why should cruise lines be affected? Even supporters of the Act could probably justify an exemption. I'm talking out of my butt, though.
That's a great example of the same pattern, really neat!

This has happened before, they don't end up killing the air. Often when the new "base" iPad has a significant improvement in some way it comes in at a higher price tier and the previous generation sticks around.

The new base iPad is just in a tax year as I like to think of it. If you really do want that better model but not the air you pay the tax. In 12 months or so I'll drop down to the existing previous generation price and that model will finally be phased out.

There are a lot of ways to go with this but the most obvious in my opinion is to form a company and do consulting/dev work through that. It seems like you want to continue making money from engineering in addition to your day-job, the only way to guarantee you're making a quality wage with flexibility is to go on your own IMO.
Advertise yourself as having a lot of experience and being good at what you do and target folks who want someone to "jump in, do the job, and jump out".

This may be more overhead than initially desired but certainly more satisfying and longterm sustainable than Upwork or some other random gig company.

Other than that selling things you own (bikes or whatever) is probably the easiest way to make "cash" but seems you want more than that.

Good luck to you

I don't understand why people don't want to do WFH to reduce carbon emissions. It seems like the quickest way an individual can reduce their emissions.
Not sure if it helps but consider that you may not have enjoyed the path you didn't take as much as you think you would.

It is possible that you would have resented the inability to work the way you actually did with all sorts of long lasting negative effects.

Accept that decisions made by younger you were appropriate for that person and move on.
this was my exact situation when my kids were small. We added up childcare expenses and it turned out we barely came out ahead with our two income household. The extra money was not worth the commutes and logistics of managing two jobs and daycare for two kids. My wife quit her job, we cut back a little bit, and she stayed at home for about 3 years. Once the kids were school age she went back to work ( she's a teacher ). She did lose some ground on her pension and raises but at this point, about 7 years later, the impact is negligible.

I was pretty jealous of stay at home dads (I know two) and the things they were able to for their kids. My kids are older now and that ship has sailed for me.
You're going about this wrong.
You shouldn't work more for more money.
You should figure out a way to get the work you do be valued higher.

Best bang for your buck here would be to jump jobs. You can definitely get around $300k in the US if you're a decent dev.

Good grief. The word "Corsair" in English means Pirate (or at least: Pirate Ship), but the word "corsario" in Spanish apparently means privateer.

I don't necessarily subscribe to the 'simulation' viewpoint, but that sounds exactly how some lazy evaluation/procedural generation system would work. Don't need to compute values until they are needed. Just like atomic orbitals.

Add that to all the quantization we have discovered in nature, the speed of light limit (which is also the speed at which information can be transmitted), the time dilation effects with speed... and that provides plenty of food for thought.

You are ranting, but not addressing the point that was made. The post above mine wanted work to become a "much smaller part of most people's lives."

I'm all for maximizing the earnings I make while working, and to be honest, sure, I'd like to build platforms and methods to earn passive income while I am not working. But I don't think it is necessary or required to somehow normalize a 20 or 30 hour work week. Further, I recognize that if my workday allows me to sit in a chair all day, as opposed to hard physical labor in harsh weather, then the moment my work ends, I'm physically capable of whatever leisure activity I want to enjoy. You might technically "work" by sitting in meetings for the same number of hours as people whose bodies are broken down by 40 due to backbreaking labor, but obviously you haven't "sold" your labor to the same extent.

It's probably still in great use with telemetry devices.

I worked at a small company that developed GPS + Cellular devices. Most of the firmware I worked on processed AT commands, either off the RS232 serial bus, or the network adapter. These devices were either deployed to remote locations for monitoring, or on vehicles for tracking purposes. Basically all the commands to get data or execute commands were customized AT commands.
Agree whole-heartedly! Not mentioned in the article:

- Increasing cycle time means you'll end up jamming a larger delivery payload (or more items) into the cycle. This increases risk, which is mitigated via gate-keeping, so cycle times tend to increase even more.

- Gate-keeping is a form of fiefdom-building. Businesses usually don't consider that when implementing them at first.

- Gate-keeping for problem FOO means everyone will treat FOO as someone else's problem; they're free to ignore foo. Quality gates, in my experience, typically make for lower quality products.
