It could also be said the central issue is that Twitter's political leanings went against many elsewhere, therefor, everything is a conspiracy and nothing done was done with good intentions.
I would like to see an exponentially rising price to renew one work's copyright registration. There should be a financial cost and risk/reward balance for withholding a creative work from the public domain for others to reuse.

Very well said, thank you for sharing. I’ve never considered it like that because it was never my experience, nor one I’ve seen firsthand in others... but it sounds so obvious reading it now. Makes me wish I had more of that growing up. Makes me hope I remember this when I’m a parent.
i had a solaris workstation on my desk from 2000 to 2005 and we had an industrial fridge size IBM pseries running AIX to run big linear programming problems on. You could not run linux or BSD on those machines and you could not get close to the performance of those machines with intel CPUs. We also had an itanium HP box for a while, running Digital UNIX.
The stupid H Biden lap top story shows that factually the government can twist a private company's arm outside of legal channels and said company will do as it is told. That is very bad. I'm not sure people realize this. Every incriminating leak showcases it more and more and yet people are generally not worried about it because they themselves have not been affected. Yet.
Please don't give advice like this on the Internet; you are not a qualified physician, you do not know what this person's life actually is, what medicines they're currently taking, what allergies they have, etc.

You could literally kill someone with the wrong "benign" advice at the wrong time. Turning off Slack won't kill anyone (probably) but suggesting a diet or medication very well could.

Just don't do it.

Sometimes i feel the same, a new feature is requested and i directly see this is an anti-feature, or just overall a bad decision. I voice my concern, but the client request goes first.

Next up the feature is poorly implemented, usually "just like the client wanted it" without any bigger design. Testing is barely done, and finally it goes to prod. Next is a 3 month period of bugfixes, and ultimately this one feature can take up 60-70% of a devs time.

Then the process repeats.

These are solid advice. I've also had slack utterly destroy productivity, it is very unfortunate it has become popular.

I don't have the slack app anywhere, I just access it via browser.

I don't keep a tab open on it. I'll close the tab when I'm done and only reopen it via bookmark next time I need.

I configure it to send me email if anyone mentions me. Of course, need to also make sure email notifications are all off. I'll check email about hourly or between meetings or completed tasks.

In the absence of any email notifications from slack, I'll check it only at a few set times during that day. Times vary based on org culture but ideally not more than three times a day (morning, lunch, evening).

If these technical solutions work for you, they can work great. But of course the worst part about slack is how it incentivizes this hyper-toxic culture of everyone monitoring chat all day long above all else. If your company culture has fallen into that pit and people get angry at you for not answering every bit of trivia within 30 seconds, I wish I knew of a solution other than quitting.
It would certainly be a lot more interesting if new Twitter had a real solution/policy for each of these situations. It just feels like a lot of mud-slinging, but to what end besides culture war points?

My chief complaint about Win7 is how much slower it seemed to perform than Win2k on late 90s/early 2000s hardware / on a virtual machine. (Also, IIRC, the licensing terms for Win2k were better regarding running on virtual machines.)
I don’t believe it does— not yet, at least. Their “world” is staggeringly different from our own at present, and in important ways.

For example, the AI models we have now will happily run forever if supplied with external power.

That sounds quite different from my experience of the world!

The AI model doesn’t ever get tired, or bored, or hungry, or anxious, or afraid.

If a model emerged that started procrastinating, say, or telling jokes for fun, or shutting down for long stretches due to depression— then I’d start to consider that maybe it’s got an inner world like mine.
> I left FAANG basically because you had to play the politics and self-promotion game to get promoted.

So then don’t get promoted? I was at two large companies for many years in my career, (almost) everyone’s obsession with promotion was bewildering. A FAANG L5 salary is pretty rewarding for just executing IC work, and that’s about what is expected of that role.
I don’t know who that is, but the “universal basic outcome” is already poverty
To be clear, net metering was never "paying" customers, but instead providing them a credit for the energy they delivered during the period they delivered it. So, export power during the "off-peak" period, you build a credit at rate slightly less than the retail rate which you can then debit from the "off-peak" bucket later. Generally (with some exception), any remaining credit at the end of an annual billing cycle is lost.

So, the characterization of paying exports for useless power and then getting it back during the 7 PM system peak isn't quite correct.

Strongly agree with you that price signals are important to impact behavior (human or system) which will result in a lower overall price for society, so long as regulators do their work (align price with cost).
Except it is. The slope is always slippery. Nobody can predict with 100% certainty what the future holds and if you believe otherwise, then I have a bridge to sell you.

Also, you clearly don’t understand what it means if you are nitpicking about the size of the first step. The whole point is that it builds up, and nobody can truly predict how it would shape up.

Trying to do so to fit a doom and gloom narrative is, once again, the literal definition. Just because you’d not like it doesn’t suddenly make it not so.
The FBI's building is named after the guy who saw MLK Jr as the biggest national security threat and most likely had a strong hand in trying to silence and murder him. The FBI does plenty of heroic things daily, but they are also deeply rooted in guarding the status quo of those in power over actual justice.
The only experiences I've seen of intrapreneurship didn't solve these problems, since funding was guaranteed and their leadership basically worked for the "parent" company.

Most businesses leaving California report growing losses after they leave. A lot of them fail.

I was too. I mean, they show the aperiodic Penrose tiles, which is nice because that's approachable. But the punchline of the story quashes the hope of a nice illustration of the result: the proof works in 2^(100^100)-dimensional space. We always joke that one must only visualize n-space and set n to 2^(100^100)... but that isn't much of a help. It really is a nasty geometry.

I am testing out arducam, my biggest problem is finding an outdoor friendly enclosure or any enclosure that i can mount on a window or wall. My options seem to be messing with non-conductive resin or repurposing existing webcam enclosures. Also, the quality and fps isn't impressive and I still have to figure out how to disable the IR lights that are a deal breaker for window mounting. Tips welcome.

I have no idea if this camera is any better but will try to compare specs.
My life path, including our ages +/- a year, is exactly what the person you're responding to described. I think the "screens are demons" approach to the screens of the 90s would indeed have been overkill and even counterproductive. However, I think (many/most of) the screens of today are nothing like back then.

A while back I saw a ~5 year old watch the entirety of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5dUzc476Ws (pick any random 10 seconds to get the idea)

My spouse and I discussed it later in private, and we were both horrified. In the moment we had both had visceral little gasp reactions to how bad it was. We were until then only aware of a problem to the extent of "my kids are staring at screens all day", which does of course sound like 90s parents. The real problem is that some significant portion of those screens are now putting out absolutely horrifying cognition poison.
Occasionally see people with children who cannot eat a meal without a tablet or phone running beside them. Before or after food at a restaurant if it's the only way you can enjoy your own meal is one thing, but as a behavioural crutch otherwise is asking for trouble.

Like you, I try to foster in my kids an interest in everything around them. Absolutely everything is an interesting topic of discussion. Or a way to build an observational challenge - can you point to something purple? Or triangle-shaped? What instruments can you hear in this music?
Pretty good website, but all the downloadable audio files are in MP3 format. Is there any way to get higher quality files, like natively generated FLAC, or lossless rips from released audio CDs?
This is how it has always been done in LA, going back to the 1950s at least, except that normally the builders are developers building lots of houses at once.

So you're basically just arguing against a system that was set up and optimized for the most common case.

I think the most logical solution is to plan your own daily calendar for this. If you are not working in a position like support, you can stay away from slack completely and only check it during break times.
Jsx is expressive but it comes with a deviation from html. And loses optimization opportunities.

Templates are closer to html, can be better optimized but lack expressiveness.

Is there a third option which has both? Not yet for sure. Right now, you need to compromise somewhere.

The only pragmatic option is to support both template and jsx (Vue approach) but then people complain about "complexity" and "multiple ways to do same thing"

> by withholding critical security fixes and features that are required to use the modern web

to play the devil's advocate, you're saying that microsoft should continuously make critical security fixes for old OS versions, add updates/features with which modern web requires to function, all while not taking any income except for the initial payment purchase price?

No business could do this.

Edit: to make the point, i would say that microsoft _should_ charge a subscription for old versions of windows, and use that revenue to upkeep it, instead of pushing what they're pushing right now.
Kids need to learn restraint and self-control before open-ended device usage. Let them figure out how to be bored first. Set time limits, teach them what healthy usage is.

We didn't start time screen time for our kid until ~6. We required a log entry to be written so it's purpose driven, not mindless usage.
There's even a paradox. Lisp like languages aims at not scaling, since you have control over parsing (to an extent) and interpretation (macros). If something requires a lot of hands.. people will compress that into a DSL, and keep the team small.

It does create dialects and potential silo effect. I never worked in real CL projects but books and articles mention to not abuse macros and DSLs because of that, old lispers are also often very educated .. and they rarely do things for trivial reasons. I'm regularly surprised by how well thought out things are.

YouTube wished they were as good as TikTok at recommending videos

YT is good but TikTok is great

Some people see the devil in that, which might be true, but from my experience TikTok is the best in class at giving you what you want to see

I just happen to want to see nerdy science videos and hyper local recommendations in my city. Others might see outlets in more destructive hobbies like politics and whatever zoomers get up to these days. But for me it’s all plus side.

Sharing random post from Mastodon instead of url is unclear

https://tomlehrersongs.com/
From my observations, it's essentially:

1. subsidize creators, giving cash & traffic boost

2. recommender generously favors new creators

This keeps the hype cycle growing and avoids the "power-user" problem. The Tiktok model is very punishing for "old" or full-time creators, you'll find a very tough up-hill battle to maintain the attractiveness. But overall it's good for consumers casual creators.

self plug: I wanted to learn how databases work internally, like how they store and retrieve data, build indexes, etc.

I built an educational KV store to teach someone to write a database from scratch. I have set up this project in TDD fashion with the tests. So, you start with simple functions, pass the tests, and the difficulty level goes up. There are hints if you get stuck. When all the tests pass, you would have written a persistent key-value store in the end.

I spent a lot of time in the early 2000s on discussion forums and songmeanings.net learning about and contributing to interpretations and meanings of songs.

This is an interesting concept (AI lyric interpretation) and my comment is something a bit deeper than this concept itself.

Perhaps I'm showing my age, but what makes lyric interpretation so cool is that it's the intersection of two people's life experiences - the song writer and the listener.

There's often no single meaning of a song. It may mean one thing for the writer and something completely different for the listener.

What happens in online communities where people talk about what song lyrics mean to them is the creation of actual community. That's both interesting and impactful.

People are arguing opposite approaches without mentioning the obvious:

There isn't a one-size-fits-all best practice. Every kid is different. Some can self-moderate; others can be ruined. Similar to gambling, alcohol, or other addictions.

Age is also a big factor. Entertaining your 2 year old with an iPad will probably lead to worse outcomes than for a 15-year-old.

Just because something worked for your kid -- that doesn't mean it will work for all kids. Hope this is obvious, yet nobody is stating it.

1000+ channels sounds insane. Maybe it's normal to use Slack like that in larger enterprises, but IMO at that kind of scale they need to have separate Slack workspaces for each team, and then higher level ones (or a different method of communication) for higher-level strategic & executive planning. Even if you're not expected to be in the vast majority of them, having 1000+ Slack channels all under one workspace would be overwhelming for a lot of people, I'd think.

For the OP trying to manage that situation, I'd say leave or mute any channel you don't need to be in, set it to only notify you for @ mentions. (@channel mentions would depend whether it's abused; if not, those could be included too. If it is, then probably best not to notify on those.) And then yeah, as you suggested, aside from people specifically tagging or DMing you, only look a couple times a day, at specific times.

If you think that could cause inconvenience for others, or if even just the @mentions are too much, it could be worth bringing it up with your manager too. (If you've got a good manager, probably worth bringing it up regardless.) Try to approach it not as a complaint, nor as something you can't handle, but just a challenge to be solved, like any of the many engineering challenges you work through every day. Along the lines of, "Hey, I was wondering if I could run something by you. I've noticed that with all the Slack channels we're in, I'm getting pinged pretty regularly. I want to make sure I'm available when people need me, but I also find it helpful if I can have uninterrupted stretches to concentrate on coding. Was thinking a decent solution might be ______. What do you think?" Of course you know your manager better than I do, so obviously tailor it to how you'd normally communicate with them. Personally though, I always appreciate it when someone on my team comes to me with an issue in that way, as an opportunity for improvement. They might even have some useful ideas, or be able to help facilitate.
This is great work.
