Yes, absolutely agree - I was considering updating with something similar. Finding a mentor, either within or outside the company, who’s opinions you trust and who can say “no, you’re not reading that situation wrong, Jim’s behaving badly” or “yes, your instincts are correct, this is the right way to do this,” or even “yes, Bob’s incompetent, but in this case, he’s right, because of this” is absolutely invaluable. It’s invaluable for anyone, but especially in that situation, it can make the difference between a learning opportunity and a trauma.
I don't know how well this works across business and personal accounts, but you can use "collections" to share passwords between accounts.

I'm using that on my VaultWarden server to share data between different accounts and it works well for me. This may not work in your specific situation if your company manages your Bitwarden account, though.
I really enjoy gemini because it is its own little world. It is the feeling of surfing the www in the 90's again. Everything is rendered the way I want it to be rendered, in whatever client I feel like using. Anyone can code their own client or server without much effort (I'm told).

It does not have to have immeasurably broader support or use standard protocols. Gemini's protocol is orders of magnitude simpler than any version of HTTP ever was and gemtext is far simpler than any version of HTML. Not everyone has to like it. Installing a gemini client is such a low barrier anyway for those that want to try one.

If you’ve taken VC, you had a bad VC. Otherwise, this misconstrues most VCs’ advice in a downturn, which is to prioritise staying alive.
You can make an http web browser not store any cookies. This may limit the operation of some existing sites that rely on cookies though because they can't maintain client side session information or other state. Tracking cookies are not inherent to http. http is just the content transfer protocol. I feel like campaigning against tracking cookies within http, and advocating for http browsers to have more stringent handling of 3rd party cookies (like what Firefox offers, but maybe even more) is more likely to get wider adoption than coming up with a complete replacement for http.
Berlin is right now in this strange in-between state where countless places are cash-only while plenty of others are no-cash-at-all - both of which equally hipsterish.
The person who laid out the power board likely never even knew the person who designed the ventilation. They might not even have been in the same company.
I'm not totally sure what that means. VB and the change to .NET are kind of a one-off event. A "VB developer" could mean anything from someone writing VB/ ASP in a text editor with minimal syntax highlighting to someone using a drag and drop editor and never writing code to someone who was really just writing fancy Excel macros. If you want to suggest some of the people working in a GUI only had trouble making the transition, I suppose it's possible, but .NET offered VB.net and VisualStudio still had drag-and-drop editors. So why would they need to be interns? Because people started organizing code differently in folders and linking DLLs?

Zig is great for low-level use cases like embedded, especially where performance is a high priority and memory safety doesn't offer as much benefit as in other domains [0].

Nim's also geared towards systems programming, though it does so with an RC foundation. It's features are well-designed and complement that pretty well.

Vale's more geared towards the higher-level cases (games, apps, servers) where memory safety, performance, and developer productivity are all priorities. It's meant to be more of a "software engineering" language, focusing on keeping things loose and decoupled in the large, while offering tools like regions [1] (not done yet) to eliminate overhead everywhere it can.

I've been considering a switch from 1Password to KeepassXC myself, but the last time I tried it, I couldn't find if KeepassXC has some equivalent to the "quick access" feature of 1Password.[0] In short, a way to open a small window, search for a service name or URL, and then quickly copy username, password, or a TOTP code. As far as I could tell, I had to open the entire KeepassXC app every time to find something. Has this changed, or did I miss something somehow?

True to some extent. Almost nobody gets to count on staying with the same company their whole life and collecting a pension anymore, though -- so I would not say that expectation exists in other industries anymore. Especially a pension. I don't think anyone outside of government really has pensions anymore.

Re re-training yourself as a software engineer... I wonder how often people really need to do this either... to keep getting top possible salary maybe, but just ("just"!) to keep getting a better salary than most of the USA? Maybe sometimes. But, I mean, there are still people making very very good money writing Fortran and COBOL... probably better money than you can make writing PHP -- and you can still make better money than most of the USA writing PHP! OK if you specialized in, like, Flash or ColdFusion, you probably had to learn something different.

Yeah, I am not a strong writer. I just write how i think. I have ADHD + dyslexia and I can't follow grammar. :-( Im just trying to get it out of my head as fast as possible. Thank you.
I didn't see anyone give the following features so here goes:

1. Ability to integrate traffic light info (how long they're gonna be red for, how fast do I need to drive to get a green light, how fast should I drive to get as many constant greens as possible, integrate this into adaptive cruse control) - Audis have this feature, but I should not have to buy an Audi just for this.

2. Police info (integrate radar detectors, radio for police freq and Waze etc. directly into the infotainment, heads up display or dash)

3. Integrate CarPlay / Android Auto navigation into heads up display / dash (currently only Honda / Acura does this as far as I know)

4. Play media (Netflix and other popular apps) via wifi when the car is in park mode

EDIT:

5. Add ability to integrate dashcams (and SD cards)

6. Add Toll auto-payment apps
Part of it has to do with English being my second language. I have a slight accent from an uncommon country. At times I want to ensure people understood me despite my accent. Repetition is one way I ensure that.

That's not the only reason, but it is a contributing factor.

Edit for your edit: You have an interesting perspective of would you use a search engine that took 30 minutes to give an answer.
eh....not really. Countries are diversifying away from USD transactions to hedge against risk of the funds being frozen or seized of US Gov, these days a risk that is no longer zero. USD will continue to be dominant, just used in transactions when both parties agree to accept the risk, only countries targeted by US, or have a fear of being so targeted, will transact in alternative currency

You're totally true. But it turned out, that proper prompting (like packing dialog context into the prompt) worked great.

I spent many hours with orig ChatGPT and with this recreated version. The main difference I have found is that the recreated ChatGPT is more inclined to ask questions on questions (maybe can be fixed with more prompt engineering). I didn't find any major differences in the quality or usefulness of the answers.
I know several experienced people who quit less than 3 months before a big stock vest. They all said it was so stressful and terrible they couldn't stand another day, even for another 250k. Soul deadening, they called it.

They all got jobs at other big companies, but without that stress.
> If you cannot correctly identify the systemic impediments to someone improving their situation, and offer realistic advice to them in those circumstances, you're part of the problem, or at least, you're not recognizing the problem.

A personal example I can think of has to do with how I managed my spending in the past: I would make sure not to overdraw from my checking account. Not because I am incapable of budgeting but because I didn't know any methods of budgeting. If I were to hear someone lament about their lack of making ends meet despite good income I would first try to get an understanding about how they budget since I know that was the actual mechanism that helped me make the decision not to buy the proverbial avocado toast.

Of course, finances could still be difficult due to cost increases not being matched by income increases; that is a genuinely unfortunate situation which I'm not sure how to fix. In this case, I would offer condolences over advice ("shit, that sucks, I'm sorry" not "just get a better job, lol") because I don't know what I would do in that situation.
I once wrote a PCX decoder in Pascal outputting VGA w/mode 13. The cool part for me was it had run length encoding, which I was able to figure out trivially just reading the spec. May not have been the most efficient, but way easier than trying to figure out GIF!
Wouldn't the challenge be what does it mean that 'one tried their best' ? By using the word best there, it becomes yet another goal.
....yeah....and the corruption disappeared LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!! 'Laides and gentlemen...we need more money'
There is a similar idea in the book "atomic habits" by James clear : focus on process not outcome. that’s one of the best advice I ever read.
Zelle is the choice of scammers. Incidentally, Zelle offers no guarantees or refunds. I don't know why anyone would use Zelle under those circumstances. Some banks will automagically sign their customers up for Zelle accounts, exposing them to scam risks for which there is no resolution. Money gone.

- bright green mat for high contrast against small parts

- soft cushion pad made it easier to pick up parts on a flat surface

- the ring around the replacement main spring to make it easier to press into the barrel

what about criticisms from fellow Kenyans who say that it is exploitation?
Also most clients do not render images at all or only render images if you click on them. Very few clients support any kind of animations or sounds. Of course someone could still do marketing and post some text-only ads if they want to. If it is too annoying I guess I will not visit that page again. If it is not too annoying I can just ignore it and keep reading. An ad is not automatically a dark pattern.
Yeah, I find the surface texture of my 2nd gen SE to be hard to hold without a case. Also the camera thing you mentioned.

On the other hand, I routinely keep phones 5 years, and putting the case omit greatly increases the odds of it making it that long.

On the third(?) hand, cases themselves are kind of a crapshoot for durability. I cracked the corners of an Otterbox case, glued them, cracked them again, and finally switched to an aluminum Ghostek case that's holding up ok.
Boeing Awarded NASA Sustainable Flight Demonstrator Contract – Jan 18, 2023
If a merchant, especially in Germany, asks for cash, it's for tax evasion. It's as simple as that. And no, I don't care about your anecdotes how that is not true for your particular case. A small number of exceptions exist of course.
None of that is about their relationship to open source.

There are still lots of reasons to dislike Microsoft, but their interaction with open source has dramatically improved in the last 10-20 years.
That feels contradictory. You disagree with the person who says they don't like to hire ex-amazon, but you yourself prefer not to hire ex-amazon. Sorry, what's your point?
Do you mean ethnically cleansed?

Ethical ethnic cleansing is hopefully not a thing.
Based on their current docker-compose file, it seems like they did away with the MS SQL server, at least: https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/docker-unifi...

[This issue](https://github.com/bitwarden/server/pull/2487) also suggests SQLite was added as a database driver last December.
I don't understand why overdraft hasn't been outlawed. It's literally a tax on you if you make one tiny mistake or your bank make a mistake.

If I dont have the money block the transaction and offer a line of credit with specific apr for those that want to be able to overdraft.
Correct, and that is not a good thing.
If we're in a situation where society devolves to the point where people have to trade whisky or ammo for a pig to eat then half of us are going to end up murdered for anything valuable to begin with.
I love these terms, definitely describes the situation well. I'm not sure how you'd describe the best mindset here. Pessimistic stoicism? Understanding the system is bad, but also realizing you have to work with the hand you were dealt.

My generation (millennial) tends to frustrate me, in that while a lot of people are correct in that the system is setup to lead them to failure, there are so many escape hatches to actually succeed.

I mean think about it, yeah, things are a lot more expensive now than my parents generation, but we also have these advantages:

- We all walk around with super computers in our pockets

- We have instant access to pretty much all of humanity's collective knowledge, practically for free

- Most people have pretty easy access to credit (which is admittedly a double edged sword)

My unscientific observation is that the people that complain the most about "the system" are actually some of the most privileged people, which makes them sound sort of spoiled and ridiculous.

I don't know, on one hand if you came from poverty in a crime stricken neighborhood you have my sympathy and understanding. On the other hand, if you came from a middle class background, you went to college and majored in something utterly useless (I won't mention the degrees... but you know them), racked up a huge debt, and now you're upset that nobody has a great job for you... I have slightly less sympathy. I realize that's a bit of a strawman, but it also just seems to be something I see a lot. If there's a big mistake my generation has made, it's having everyone go to college for degrees they'll never really use. And for some reason the trades have this huge stigma, even though you can make a perfectly good living as an electrician or a plumber.
I think that just means "this won't be very helpful in standing up your own DigID". It also says they're looking at providing more ongoing transparency.
Google won't help you here. Popsci stuff is useless at best, and more often actively misleading. You need a GR textbook. An Introduction to General Relativity, Spacetime, and Geometry (https://fma.if.usp.br/~mlima/teaching/PGF5292_2021/Carroll_S...) is relatively accessible.
PIPs are not all fired in one day, it happens semi-randomly throughout the year.

There is a golden middle way somewhere between "have everyone covered up head to toe in as many layers as possible" and "let's all walk around naked". Along which axis you prefer to be will differ from person to person. As far as I'm concerned people can wear whatever they want as long as they're fine with others looking at them like they grew a third head.
I find myself only replying to people who disagree with me. That is sad.

I've added Vale to my blog post. It looks very interesting.

Congratulations on taking a stand for what you believe in.
Many tool watches are no-date because you don’t typically need it while scuba diving etc.

Personally, I find setting the time much more annoying than the date, especially if the watch has a quick-set date.
There's very little in the open source space that competes with, for example, npm + TypeScript + VSCode for usability (where "usability" here runs the gamut from package / dependency management to code comprehension / documentation / refactoring to debugging).

That kind of polished integration often costs money. In contrast, in the open source world we limped along with gcc + gdb for decades until Clang was able to force the issue (which was funded by Apple, Google, Microsoft, ARM, Sony, Intel, and AMD).
The author of this article seems to make some very obscure points here.
First and foremost:
"You have to work pretty hard to find a bar serving traditional Germanic beverages and food."
What does the author define as "Germanic" beverages and food? As a german that has lived for some time in Berlin I'm quite sure that there are more than enough places to grab "Germanic" beverages and food at. They just don't stand out much. [EDIT: For those who don't know, Germanic doesn't mean German. Germanic means something different]

Then he continues to discuss how "fortunately, there seems to be a grassroots pushback against such globalising trends" which I find equally weird. He comments about the existence of burger joints and ramen bars as if these are literally destroying the city's economy. How are german restaurants (which definitely exist in Berlin) and foreign restaurants mutually exclusive?

I also like to mention that many places prefer cash only in Germany for tax evasion reasons, not because of some made-up "grassroots pushback" against the big, scary globalism of.. foreign restaurants. (???)

Another obscure point is that "eager-looking under 18s try to get in [beer breweries], only to be politely turned away without any fracas." which is again, a very stupid point to make, since you are allowed to buy beer at 16 in Germany already.

Then he quotes a person of supposedly Eritrean descent saying “But the people coming now, they don’t learn German and they don’t want to work.” which sounds pretty much like your average alt-right talking point, that has been disproven over and over again.

I'm really sorry, but this person seems to know literally absolutely nothing about Berlin, Germany, or life in Germany in general. This article is mediocre at most and a farce.
If you listened to journalists over the last several years it was "learn to code".

Of course, they get mad when you tell them that.
Maybe unpopular advice, but I do find that companies over-index on your current role. (FWIW I have hired lots of new and experienced PhDs in ML but am not hiring now.) So if you take a "placeholder" job, I suggest trying to find one that sounds at least as prestigious as your current position. So, changing your resume from "Fresh MIT PhD grad on the market" to "Researcher in boring lab of dying old industrial company" will be a bad move. If your passion is AI, it's a good idea to go for a placeholder job to be in AI/ML as well. Startups can be good unless they are obviously ridiculous or terrible ones - managers are used to seeing unknown startup companies and fresh grads, and you'll probably be forced to do lots of productive coding. But a bad research lab can be really bad - trailing edge research, bad code, not enough resources to do something meaningful, publishing in low-tier venues that nobody reads, ugh....
That was my first thought, too. But instead it's just-barely-submarine volcanoes on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

Thanks for your input. Trimming the fat of my communication would be helpful.

This statement nailed one of my problems:

"Don't try to anticipate the questions too much. You'll be wrong about what what's going to give people difficulty no matter what"

If I stop doing that, it will reduce my verbosity by about 50% or more.
The article is actually talking about volcanic activity building things up. I.e. active volcanoes building up relative to the seafloor immediately around them.

Isostatic rebound is also occurring for the overall area, though. It's just a smaller effect (millimeters to centimeters per year) vs the meters to hundreds of meters that can occur from an eruption.

(For those who don't know, isostatic rebound is occurring for large areas where the ice sheets were very thick during the last ice age. The lithosphere (rigid portion of the earth) "flexed" downward as a result, and it's currently still flexing back now that the ice is gone. The mantle has a very high viscosity, though, and needs to "flow" into the space as the lithosphere flexes back. That means it's a process that takes tens of thousands of years to equalize. "Flow" is in quotes, because most folks don't think of solids flowing. The mantle is solid rock, but solid rock does flow.)
Past accidents are no indicator of future failure.

Sometimes once burned, twice as wary.

In non-aphorisms but general hearsay: I have heard second hand that OVH never want a second event to occur like that notorious fire and have taken many steps to prevent a second disaster outage.

That said, if you want to know Migadu's specific data reliability plans, then yes you should probably make a direct inquiry.
That is the best reason to use cash. Isn't it scary that debit money guarantees you pay more taxes, and it is also used as evidence against you, and to violate your privacy?

Cash doesn't have any of those issues, its amazing. That's why governments hate it! (literally!)
If an AI uses source images to generate novel reproductions, wouldn't that still count as CSAM?

Regardless, I should have included the phrase "depictions of" or similar.
> Repetition is one way I ensure that.

...or you could just wait for them to ask for clarification and additional detail if necessary. Assuming people can't understand you or follow your answers by default can come across as extremely arrogant and belittling and that instantly shuts a lot of people down to listening to anything further you have to say. Especially when you're answering a simple question with a 25 min over-explanation.
