People pleasers can cause people to dislike them in a workplace, ironically. Being a people pleaser in software dev very often means you will over-burden yourself because you'd rather say "yes, I can do that for you" than "no, I don't have the bandwidth for that".

I'd rather a teammate who is honest about their current limitations than someone who tells me what I want to hear. If someone admits they are stretched thin, it's now an "us versus the problem" to find why you are so overtasked. If someone consistently takes on too much (because they can't say no) and causes the team to miss deadlines, it's now an "us versus you" problem.
> In 2nd Cor 11 Paul confirms that other people were preaching another savior, completely different from his own.

I think you are interpreting Paul's words here in an overly literalistic fashion. He isn't claiming that people preaching "another Christ" are preaching a different historical figure as their saviour – as in "my Christ is Jesus of Nazareth, your Christ is Menachem of Jericho". Rather, he is claiming their theology or morals are so wrong that the "Christ" they preach is no longer the "real one" even if it still claims the same historical figure as its foundation.

Today, you can walk into a fundamentalist Protestant church, and hear a preacher complaining that Catholics follow "another Christ and another Gospel". The preacher isn't claiming Catholicism is based on a different historical figure; rather, he is claiming that their theology and morals are so radically wrong it might as well be. You don't have to have any sympathy at all for the preacher's views, to understand that Paul was making the same kind of claim, just in a very different time and place, and against rather different targets.

> It was the success of Paul's version of Christianity that made everyone follow his "revealed Jesus" point of view, which later was embellished in the "gospel of Mark" as a person living in Israel,

That's a hypothesis. How strong is the evidence for that hypothesis? Most scholars think it is quite weak – even among non-Christian scholars (such as atheists and Jews) who don't have any theological motivation for rejecting it. The alternative hypothesis–that Paul joined a pre-existing Jewish sect based in Jerusalem, centred on the historical figure of Jesus of Nazareth, but transformed it into a rather different religion by refocusing it away from Jews and towards recruiting Gentiles–is considered the more probable one by mainstream scholarship.

All crew are also under a regulation that limits their time available for flight, similar to a trucker but with larger consequences. eg If you are on shift for a certain number of hours, waiting for a plane in a hotel or in the terminal, it_does_not_matter. You have to have a mandatory sleep block where you are now unavailable. Once thousands of staff started timing out, even after the weather clears, it_did_not_matter. They were now unavailable and their replacements hadn't come in due to the weather, leaving some locales understaffed and all schedules backed up (which continued to compound as weather shifted).
Probably not, but it's ok, thanks for asking

This is an interesting way to do password management. But I definitely wouldn't describe this as "simple" or "minimal". You're using passage, Syncthing, restic, git, physical Yubikey, SD card, and don't have great support for mobile.
That's very clever. I've seen videos of this before. It's a robotic actuator.

Notice that it's overconstrained. The ball has 3 degrees of freedom, but is driven by 4 motors, which must maintain some invariant relationship. It's kind of like a mechanical implementation of a quaternion.
That's obviously not a blanket case of "AMFA bag handlers categorically refuse to use bag scanner tech" but rather "SW, unlike other airlines, didn't negotiate (early enough) the use of bag scanners in its contract with AMFA bag handlers."

SW decides what their priorities are when negotiating these contracts and deciding the terms. Other airlines obviously prioritized bag scanner tech and made the necessary tradeoffs to make it happen while SW didn't. Half the blame at the very least should be apportioned to SW.

Has anyone tried to break or cause ChatGPT to fall over?
No. The question was not 'how do I force the app to terminate' but 'why doesn't it terminate in the normal fashion?' A lot of tech people have a very bad habit of ignoring the question that was asked and answering one they think was meant, or a related question that they happen to have an answer to. This isn't helpful to the person asking the question.

There are several time limits, but I believe that one of them stops when pulling back from the gate. i.e. once the the plane is moving, they're granted several X more hours, but if they haven't left yet, then they've timed out. So the arriving crew may plausibly be usable upon arrival, but a few minutes late may be all it takes to time them out.

I've been on a delayed plane where one of the pilots timed out while sitting at the gate, so we had another second delay finding another pilot.

Good recommendations, but for other readers I'd strongly avoid the KJV Bible as the language isn't just archaic but on occasion even the meanings of words has changed in the intervening hundreds of years. At the very least go for the New King James (NKJV) if you like the language style, but otherwise something like the ESV or CEV will read better for the modern mind.
That might be revisionism from the perspective of the history you get from Disney movies but I don't think Mann is at all out of mainstream history here and I think you're doing him a disservice by comparing him to your friend. I'd hope anybody doing an american history course in US high schools these days would know that, say, the Iroquois practiced farming though the bits in 1491 about the way they burned out underbrush to encourage large animals deeper into the forest or tried to encourage Chestnut trees over others was new to me.

And people like Ben Franklin certainly wrote about Indians as models of liberty, in his case in contrast to the Germans he though were subservient by nature. And Rousseau certainly had a lot to say about them. What ended up being the US political system had many influences. I think the Corsican 1755 constitution is an underrated influence but also the lack of hereditary nobility among the natives. I think it's easy to underestimate how natural a nobility seems when all the societies you know have it, until you meet one that doesn't.

Regarding military power, Mann does argue, IIRC, that the gap wasn’t as large as might be supposed. He also argues that the conquest of the Aztecs and the Incas by small forces of Spanish conquistadors was not enabled by military superiority but rather by upsetting existing political balance. In both cases, the conquistadors aligned with subjugated factions within the existing imperial systems to overthrow the dominant power. E.g., in Mexico, Moctezuma had captured and imprisoned Cortez and his forces and could have easily wiped them out. The emperor’s delay ultimately allowed Cortez to align with vassal states, and that alliance overthrew the empire. That’s not to say that the Aztec empire’s military was the equal of Spain’s, but Cortez’s small band of conquistadors would not have defeated the Aztecs head-to-head.
Either way, if you've had a fuel injected car you were still exposed to these issues. You would have to go buy a carbureted engine from the 80s or before to get away from these "unintended acceleration" issues, as in the end a car with EFI probably has a computer actually controlling the injection.

Even with EFI, if the throttle is mechanical and the EFI continues to ask for more fuel for whatever reason (or a fuel injector gets stuck open), all that will happen is the engine will stall due to the excessively rich mixture.

Ever have vacuum hoses fail on an old car? Carburetors get stuck or clogged?

The normal failure mode of a carburetor leads to an engine that doesn't run, and not the opposite. Before complete failure, you will notice a performance decline.

Personally, I prefer no computer control.

On top of that I'll also get much better efficiency and reduce harmful emissions which hurt my family and my neighbors

You can get a lot better efficiency from a carbureted engine than most people think.

As for safety, I'd rather have freedom.

No, if they kill someone, they will get fined for gross negligence on top of the inevitable tort case (file it under "airline malpractice"). I am not asking them to fly in terrible weather: I am asking them to have enough slack in the system that one outage does not destroy their entire system because places unconnected to the weather are affected when planes they expect to arrive never do.

The point is that it is irresponsible to be running so lean that their entire system is tightly coupled like this, and we need to make doing so completely unprofitable to airlines.

True, though I imagine the agreement you’re thinking of isn’t the one they’re talking about here.

https://www.usb.org/document-library/usb-30-adopters-agreeme... is the agreement- it’s royalty free, basically “sign here, don’t patent our stuff”. Not “open source”, but it’s pretty reasonable for what you get IMO- we live in a world all about IP. Many international standards are worse. Plus, it’s not like they’re gonna sue you if you don’t sign it, unless you attempt patent shenanigans.

The $$$$ agreements for VIDs and trademark rights on the other hand… can’t say I’m too fond of those ones.
I mean you can just do basic research on how many people are convicted and how many crimes are committed. You made a false claim that the purpose is just to convince a jury that someone is guilty. This is completely ridiculous and is in line with leftist propaganda. The best thing is to just realize the error than defending this bad assertion. Forensics are used to identify victims and do assist an enormous amount of cases to find perpetrators. Again, you haven’t explained why they are not clearing all if these cases with tangentially connected individuals. Are there false convictions, convictions based on malicious prosecutors not searching for the truth, etc? Yes, of course. But I don’t know if you are familiar with the United States but it it is massive in scale compared to other countries and one of the largest countries without an in-effect autocracy. I think you would be shocked at how many crimes are committed every year and people rely on law enforcement find and prosecute those perpetrators. You might think that sounds stupid or like TV “copaganda” but that is a reality.
I enjoyed this story quite a bit. Thanks for sharing!

That's not true.

It's just that the police does not generally pay well, so if you're smart, you often have more profitable options.

So usually the smart people in the police have other reasons to be there than money, and the dumb people may not have better options.
> Is resumption difficult

The resumption itself.

> Not sure why the phone lines "jam up" exactly, don't you have a hierarchical management structure for this sort of thing? Or do 1000 pilots all report to one person?

It's not a problem of management (well it is a problem of 15 years of management fuckup which is the root cause), it's a problem of the scheduling system needing manual updates when things didn't go to plan.

At this point it's completely screwed, so it needs to be completely reset, as in the entire scheduling system needs to be reconfigured from empty, more or less.

And because SouthWest operates entirely on point to point, the same cascading properties which led to its complete collapse mean it needs to restart in a somewhat synchronised manner, otherwise you fly 3 planes, there's no followup, and you're hosed again.

> They've got like 1000 planes and like 100-150 destinations, it's not the traveling sales man problem, an optimal plan isn't needed now so much as a functional one.

The system completely lost track of crews, so all of them need to be relocated, their work cycles reworked, flight slots need to be reallocated, flights need to be re-encoded.

My brother has worked in the white and blue collar unions (he prefers his ramp job). It's not like there's some impermeable cover of secrecy. These are just regular people who you can talk to. It's a combination of computer problems and regulatory controls (sleep blocks) leaving insufficient staff (and mechanical dangers) due to weather. The ramp teams were sitting at almost quad pay with no planes to service out of Minneapolis for a significant part of the weekend. This same situation has occurred, to some degree, every year.

Due to the inevitable Guld Stream collapse, this will be a routine problem until SWA triages it.
Depending on what peripherals you already have, something that has been working well for me is using a cheap MacBook Air to ssh into a custom-built desktop PC running Linux under my desk. For work you probably care more about memory and CPU power (vs the PC gamer who cares about a big graphics card). So for $1000 you can get an M1 MacBook Air and with the other $1000 you can buy components for a 12 or 16 core desktop.

SSH over LAN (while you’re at hone) is much snappier than you’d expect if your only experience with SSH is to an AWS data center. Slap Tailscale on both machines, and now you can access the home PC from anywhere on the road. Heck, you can even access it from a phone in a pinch with a mobile SSH client.

With this setup you get native macOS and Linux (no docker nor VM required), power, portability, and battery life. It’s not the best solution for everyone but it’s working pretty well for me.
What's with the 'was'? He's still quite popular and his music is played fairly regularly, not less frequently than other artists of that day except for the likes of Queen & Bowie. Just like Vangelis. Quite a bit of music from that era is simply never played at all, but Jarre's work still features in the same places that it did back then: as background to videos and on the PA of the local supermarket. The latter is quite funny: he had a record called 'Musique pour supermarche', to see it used like that 40 years later ...

NL was a good market for Jarre though, he was extremely popular here back then.
Many are living paycheck to paycheck since most have a tendency to "live up to our paycheck" and purchase status symbols. I drove a 9 year old car in 2021. My pay increased 25% since then. I now drive an 11 year old car. A lot of people wouldn't.

Also, I just want to make a distinction between wage and income. The income of the top 1% should dwarf their wage. I recall many CEOs in the 80s and 90s famously claiming themselves wages of $1 per year, conveniently leaving out stock-based compensation and performance bonuses. Present CEO wages aren't as laughably low, but the overall income from their employment is not derived from wages but non-wage based compensation

What would be a more resilient mode of transportation? Few people would take a train from Chicago to Miami, for example. That's something like 1200 miles (2000km). Traveling from LA to NYC is like traveling from Lisbon to Moscow (2500mi/4000km by air).

The US should definitely have more rail--and higher speed rail--but that is only practical in select areas with enough population density. Many of the people in those areas could drive to where rail would service.
Some stuff in your brain is better processed in the background without you actively thinking about them.

Playing games, reading, watching movies etc. lets the active part of your GTFO of the way and let the background processes run without interruptions.

Active breaks are also an option to combat any guilt. Just decide that "I'm going to play a game for 30 minutes", then it's not wasted time - you scheduled it =)
It's not a deterrent, though, because they're still doing it.

Does it fix the problem? Does it get the people they scammed their money back?

Hugo is nice. I only tested it briefly, the learning curve will be bigger than Wordpress. It generates static HTML in a uniquely "live" kind of way. You could then probably figure out a way to push it to a free service like Heroku, if you don't want to manage a server (incl. web server configs, patches, etc.).
> The real question should be: would most developers WANT to use a Mac, if given the choice?

If the decision is between Ubuntu and Mac, they will go with Mac because it usually means better hardware and build quality. I don't think that non-mac laptops have screens that can compete with XDR displays.

> (and allows almost no) tinkering to get working

I think that we tend to overlook or dismiss the amount of tinkering we do in MacOS. Installing certain toolchains can be a real PITA, we have to deal with homebrew, outdated utilities (thank god for coreutils in homebrew), and so on.
> Presumably this is where the connection arcs every time it’s unplugged. I’m not sure how USB mitigates this, but it seems to be less of a problem. Maybe the contacts are simply thicker and more durable.

My guess is that it's probably just the good old "different length pins" trick. A quick web search shows me that the VBUS and GND pads (which carry the power) on the socket are longer, so the rest of the contacts unplug first. And unplugging the CC contact means that the pull-down resistor on it disappears, which tells the source to stop sending power to the VBUS contacts before they start to unplug.
It wasn’t the norm, but now that more people have pollen allergies and widespread summer fires are common again, it’s become more important.

Ganache, Truffle and many other Ethereum related tools allow you to simulate a sequence of transactions against a chain, meaning you're interacting with a snapshot of a live contract (albeit in a very lightweight & private local fork).

The only grey area is if you're playing 'white hat' without prior explicit authorization or consent, e.g. if something is being actively exploited and you're trying to exploit it first so 'the bad guys' don't..
