As a painter and a painting teacher, Hoppers work is a real problem for me.

On one hand, his paint handling is terrible. He spreads paint on the canvas like icing sugar on a cake. All the nuance of application I teach he happily ignores… no scumbling, glazing, tonking etc. The way he paints figures is also terrible. They look stiff and unnatural, like they have been stuffed.

On the other hand, he is a genuine poet. But His visual poetry owes nothing to European traditions. It comes from the cinema and from photography, a true American creation. A classic.

The outcome is an artist who is easy to like but hard to learn from. He succeeds on his own unique terms and by a narrow margin. I sigh when one of my students discovers him. I have to find a way to say that hopper could pull it off, but almost certainly you can’t.
I believe that environment counts a lot and it sounds like that is what happened to you. I remember a long time ago, hearing about a study done in Math classrooms where the teachers expected the boys to do better than the girls and that is what happened. Simultaneously, they had a Math teacher who expected all of their students (boys and girls) to do well and that is what happened. Part of leadership is believing in the people who work with you. They need to create an environment where everyone can be successful. The people in that environment need to tolerate mistakes. Senior developers need to have an attitude that if other developers mess anything up, it's because of knowledge or skill and that the person is doing their best. Then do what is necessary to help that person overcome their weaknesses. That said, there are people beyond help for various reasons. However, the majority of people I ever worked with want to do a good job. I've been in that situation before too and learned that the best think to do is start a new job search right away.
I wonder if this is partly the outcome of banks declining to offer any sort of meaningful ROR on savings accounts? Bank of America (for example) is offering 0.01%, although this rises to a whopping 0.04% for super-preferred customers. Yet they want $8/month to service the account unless there's a minimum balance of $500. Meanwhile, their mortgage rates start at 6.37%.

But the lawsuit isn't arguing that "companies need to consider the downstream impacts of the things they do." That's an argument to be made to governments that grant corporate charters (though, I'd note that some governments have recently gone in the opposite direction, e.g. prohibiting pension fund managers from considering anything besides financial returns in their decisions).

Instead, the lawsuit is trying to expand the concept of "fiduciary duty" to other aspects of shareholders lives. That is the part that a lot of us think is insane.
This is the only way to manage it I think, context switching across entire domains is only really effective on a weekly cadence, otherwise I find you end up spinning your wheels. It does make reschedules and delays extra painful though.
I think a lawyer that's completely green on FOSS and working for any company I've heard of should never have been hired. Maybe I'm naive but that sounds insane to me.

To clarify, any lawyer working for any company with a publicly available, physical (read: non-software or computer hardware) product or service that I've heard of should never make this mistake. That's why I wouldn't think it's especially weird that the company in question is one who offers a software product.

Anyway, you do otherwise make a good point. I can understand that someone sees it that way. (And thanks for explaining your perspective!)
Rust's list only supports a default allocation mechanism. For an actual comparison, you'll want to show us a Rust implementation which is parametrized over allocators.

Having said that - yes, it's not pretty. About the same length though.

I'm sure CPUs will try their best to optimize these usage patterns. But I suspect vector / array based approaches will still always outcompete linked lists in actual benchmarks.

Thats always been my experience of them.

Linked lists still show up in the kernel, in redis, in game engines and so on because you can't build fast intrusive collections using arrays.

Making linked lists "as fast as we can make them" doesn't mean they're competitive with a vector.

Forks are not that easy to use actually. It’s probably fine with salads which is a fairly large and easy to stick piece of food but if you have ever seen someone with tremors try to use one it quickly gets obvious that forks require a lot of fine motor skills to be used properly.
10% of the population of the USA lives in California. This is why I have my doubts. Cheerleaders say that from 1.18MM to 1.88MM people work in tech in California, but there's high vs not-so-high tech and the tech of Lockheed and SpaceX is quite different than the tech of Meta and Twitter.

1.88MM means that 1 in 20 work in tech. In Massachusetts, similar cheerleaders say that 11% of the residents work in tech.
What exactly do you believe their business model to be?
I get it. I'm lucky enough that I can spend thousands a year to get the professional support I need but simply turning up to talk for an hour a week isn't going to achieve much, you have to put in the work to set up your life, your environment in a way that works for you to help slowly improve the chances that your have more good days than bad and not get drawn into a black hole of bad days that just sucks all your energy, motivation, will. Everyone is different but coaching should help you find the practical changes you can make to shift the needle towards more good days and less bad.

Here are two basic things that worked for me and I recommend to everyone.

1. A pill organiser. Medication helps a little, but not a lot for me, however if I don't take it I know I'm increasing my risks of having a bad day somehow. So I know I need to regularly take my pills. Problem was, I kept forgetting if I'd had a morning dose, or a lunch dose, or maybe if forgotten to fill my prescription on the weekend and ran out midweek, or forgot to pack my pill bottle.
On Saturday mornings I fill a weekly pill organiser (7 removable plastic box things with 4 sections). This way I know if I need to top up at the pharmacy ahead of the work week. I also visually see if I've taken a particular dose. It's also more compact and easy to carry than bottles and blisters.

Sure it's not perfect. Last saturday night I filled it up then went to bed forgetting to take the actual dose for that night. I missed my antidepressants and the repercussions from withdrawal can last a couple of days. However, this was a much more common occurrence before I started doing this.

So that's a big change for managing my symptoms right there. Sure it might not be relevant for your situation but it's an example of a system/habit that helps manage symptoms

2. A translucent plastic water bottle with a built in straw. I'd hate to think what my kidneys look like. I've never been good at staying hydrated because (as I now know) my nervous system isn't very good at telling me about those sorts of things until it's dire. I'd easily go a whole work day without any fluids and not notice. I'd try jugs of water on my desk, or setting alarms. All to distracting. I'm also clumsy (dyspraxia como) so would end up spilling stuff everywhere, or dropping glasses.

Then someone suggested a water bottle with a straw. I was sceptical but it has changed my life and I know how stupid it sounds but I can't stress enough how much of positive impact it has had on my health and well-being.

I (and others) theorise that it's much easier to drink while still maintaining visual attention on what your doing. You don't need too engage as much hand eye coordination etc.

So there's another change.

I don't want to sound like some corny psa, but having simple systems to help support me in properly taking my medication and staying hydrated means I can take on the world freeze frame. cut to titles

But seriously. These have by no means "cured" me. But they really help. A lot.

> If I’m “just myself” then I wouldn’t be able to hold down a job and survive.

this is the thing i don’t get: for someone who’s by nature not accustomed to doing things in the prescribed way, how can they be expected to resolve that via the prescribed way?

i.e. i have to meddle through insurance, appointments, specialists that cost $$ for an assessment which _might_ lead to something useful or might just tell me things i’ve already learned via other means while waiting 2 months in line (actual ADHD specialists are in high demand) and then follow through with monthly checkups and such. if part of my issue is “i just can’t do things that way”, how can the expected solution require me to overcome that before getting treatment? it’s circular; it’s a contradiction.

> We shouldn't be so hesitant to medicate. It can be extremely useful, especially in combination with other management techniques. This stigma against medication hurts people.

i have a lot of friends for whom others would label non neurotypical. i’d never use that word myself, because i’m in such a bubble that i literally don’t know what the word is supposed to mean. but they point out my habits enough that it’s clear “you should see about a diagnosis”.

of course i haven’t, for reasons you can infer from the earlier paragraph. but these friends did turn me onto some QoL improvements like alarms, journaling systems, etc, and i also found that some meds help. it’s better, but now i’m stuck in a situation where i ration meds because the only way to get them through a system i understand involves paying 10x what i’d pay if i could jump through hoops for the professional medical system.

someday i’ll get around to actual diagnosis, but, well, i’m very good at finding excuses not to. it would be nice if i could be allowed to pursue these things in my own way instead of people using the law to block off as many alternatives as they can. allow me options, let the knowledge be easy to find, and sure promote awareness so that i can understand sooner that and how my mental experiences differ from what is normal or healthy. and then let me try these different options and figure out what works best for me. why can’t i have this?

You don't, actually, though. You only put what little stuff that people might distrust if any one party had centralized control over — like ownership — into smart-contract state. Everything else is fine to be stuffed into a database or centralized web backend somewhere; or just left to everyone individually to derive + implement themselves however they like.

For example: CryptoKitties. The only things in the on-chain state of CryptoKitties' contracts, are the kitties' ownerships, and their "genes" (an entropy blob, a bit like Pokemon https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Individual_values.) Because these are the two things that, if they were entirely in the hands of CryptoKitties themselves, you'd be suspicious that they might "cheat" on, by e.g. making their friends special kitties with genes nobody else can have; or deciding one day that kitties that aren't "cared for" should be forcibly transferred back to an "adoption agency." If either of these things were found to be possible, the value of kitties would quickly drop to zero.

Meanwhile, what exactly a kitty's genes translate to in terms of actual kitty features, is dictated by some arbitrary centralized Javascript on the CryptoKitties website. Nobody distrusts CryptoKitties on this aspect, because it doesn't really impact the value of their investment relative to other people's. If the same gene makes kitties render with wings one day and vampire fangs the next, that might upset people, but it won't make them do a mass sell-off of their kitties. After all, CryptoKitties could always change it back, so why would you sell "early" rather than wait to see if they do?

Or, in short: you put data in a smart contract if a game-theoretic prerequisite of your system working out is for certain data to be only updated in an openly-audited, multilaterally-agreed-upon way. (Good non-crypto example: the dealer's shuffle between hands at a card game at a casino. Done right in front of all the players, because otherwise they wouldn't trust it.)
maybe you should-- i am an unrelentingly rational man, but i can't deny that of all the horoscope "archetypes", or whatever you want to call them (i'm by no means an expert or even an enthusiast), Virgo is by far the best description of my personality, and just so happens to be my astrological sign (I guess... like i said, i find the whole thing rather silly).

as a crypto skeptic, i did go through the exercise of learning about the space in various respects (Solidity + mostly niche, more cool, less-crypto-bro-y things like zero-knowledge proofs), and i actually must confess that i had a lot of fun, and was left with the feeling that there are certain classes of thing that the crypto mindset actually is valuable, or, at the very least, interesting.

for example: if you were to ask me "would you rather deal with the shitshow of oath, or use crypto-y / solidity-ish primitives for dealing with authentication/authorization?".... i have to admit that there are some blissful aspects to the crypto view of the world. which makes sense: it was literally built to "solve" some of these problems.

I think the cases where lookup is faster for a linearly scanned vector is where the hash computation overhead is greater than a linear scan. Assuming you have a good hash implementation, that should be true only for a small number of entries, where you need to determine "small" by measuring.
There were lots of reports that Elon asked people to print out code and bring it to Tesla engineers for review. They’re Rumors and pretty easy to find. Wrapped up in the whirlwind of news from the last 24 hours was that LOC was a metric used. Also rumored was that Elon asked that his name not be included on any negative memo (presumably out of negative publicity?).

So no I can’t get a citation, and everything is rumors but they’re laying off 3500 people so prepare for lots of rumors floating around.
Market cap has always been a bullshit metric. It's not liquid.

Twitter does not need a human rights team. Just saying it’s not a branch of the UN and it’s not trying to project soft power on Americans enemies
The statement "Lowest unemployment ever!" is definitely 'hedged' in the same manner as this Tweet about benefits.

Taking credit for the 'lowest employment' especially using the term 'ever' would require an hour of debatable qualifications to make it entirely clear.

Would the President make this statement in his 1st month in office, make this a bit of a nonrepresentational statement? Well, probably. But it's still true.

This understanding that somehow this specific WH statement is hedged or loaded in some kind of special manner just isn't correct. In fact, you could likely delve a bit deeper into it as well to find even more relevant nuance.

"Why do you think that statement isn't intentionally misleading?"

It's true, and it doesn't require any more context than any other statement, so it's fine.

I think it would be naive of us to expect that the statement by the WH or any political body is going to run us down on the details and caveats of their statements unless they are hugely relevant.

Some of the language used here that this causes 'cruelty and harm' etc. is ridiculous.

This language within the scope of normal communications enough that we would not even be having this discussion were Twitter to not have initially marked the Tweet.

The so called 'cruelty and harm' would have gone entirely unnoticed.

And finally, this is not a threshold of content moderation for arbitrary 3rd parties to make arbitrary corrections. I'd love a feature that allowed me to add my favourite 'truthy-meter' to Twitter statements, but I'd loathe to trust Twitter specifically for things that are so mundane. They have a responsibility to call out hard misinformation, such as vaccine or election lies - but not arbitrary quips.
Give your clients alerts. Send me a text message 15 minutes before the appointment, if its time and you've been waiting for 5 minutes call me.

Yes I know I can set up calendar alerts, but odds are I screwed that up somehow, and a call will get through.

Bonus points for telling me not to feel bad and stress too much if I'm late. If it's an hour appointment and I joined 30 minutes in, that should be okay. Yeah I've lost the unused time, but otherwise that would reduce my stress.

Also I'd rather have a change under 24 hours, be accommodated (if it's possible on your end )without an extra charge.

I can definitely see myself the day before "going wait can we move our 3:00 to 5:00 instead? And if that's not possible I may just want to keep 3:00, but if it works for everyone I'd rather have 5pm"

You dislike this not because it could be defined as invasive (it's not), or because it could DoS websites (it won't). You dislike this because it's done by the government.

The gov spending money on this endeavour hardly bleeds the coffers dry nor does it prevent investment in other sectors. This kind of radical, tech-first thinking is the kind of thing we should appluad the governments IT service for doing, because not too long ago there was virtually no innovation, anything tech related was offloaded to incompetent contractors such as Accenture and Deloitte.

In fact you're contradicting yourself in multiple ways.

> "[should have spent money on] public education.": this can be defined as public education.

> "increase security staff compensation": as noted, not too long ago lots of this work was delegated to contractors. This is a step in the right direction and soon we can hope the compensation will increase.

> "increase their own security education": have you got a source which states software engineers working for the gov aren't educating themselves?

> "That is it? So... One gal looks at in and says, yep, fire up the guns!": What were you expecting, a full panel of industry experts scrutinising the code followed up with a parliamentary committee? This is called a peer code review, a rather simple process which you'll find at any tech firm.

I don't get the impression that the NY Times is all that guilty of dark patterns, but I also read it like I do most sites; with javascript disabled, so I could be missing something. But really it seems like one of the better journalistic institutions remaining after decades of generally lowered standards and capabilities for the US writ large. I think Ezra Klein is one of the most thoughtful writers/interviewers in the world today, for instance, so I follow his work there.
their refund process is a scam for sellers too. just had someone get a refund (even tho I don't do returns) claiming the item doesn't work.

I tested it and it works fine. never said in the post it was fully tested. buyer even modified the item. ebay just happily gave them their money and forced me to accept the return and refund
I'd say yes and no. TSMC has over 60000 employees. They're also probably the biggest siphon of fresh graduates in Taiwan. Like most Taiwanese companies people work like slaves(not Foxconn China level) and have fairly low salaries. Intel has twice as many employees, but then again they're also kind of all over the place.

I can't really comment how important labor costs are, but I don't think that they're insignificant.

The ballot I filled out a few weeks ago had several such things on it. They are called "ballot measures," or "referenda," and the overall ideology for them is called "Direct Democracy."

Obviously, they are subject to all the typical "push polling" weaknesses, where people can be coaxed into voting a certain way using manipulative wording.
