Read the book Difficult Conversations.

From the book, you need to prep by looking at the situation from your perspective and the other person’s. This has been very helpful for me in figuring out these tough situations. Then you look for the difference in those stories, hear the other person’s story from their perspective and work towards a solution.

Generally the more you put off these conversations the more you’ll regret it. And honestly it’s a weight off your shoulders when you do have them and you’ll often wish you had them sooner.

And most people in my experience hate starting these kinds of conversations so more often than not, in some way, they appreciate that you as their boss are starting it for them.
$1,000 says Books (Kindle, and others included), Freeform (assuming 3d), Mindfulness, in that order are the most used apps and reasons why people buy a headset. Games and iPad apps will be novelty and helpful - but hands-free reading is the killer app.

(To all the people I've argued with: I change my stance. It's going to win now. Hands down the reader, even without eye tracking, will carry it until the VisiCalc moment, heck the reader may even be it. And pulling in the incalculable number of human hours that created the iPad apps directly into the headset is brilliant. For my sheer enjoyment, I hope the keynote plays on iPhone's 'God gave us 10 styluses' to now be 'no-hands required')

I'm disappointed to see that the binaries for the Raspberry Pi aren't available anymore at the bitbucket linked on https://github.com/yshurik/inferno-rpi.

>have even gone a whole month without needing to get gasoline

Every time I consider getting a plug-in hybrid, I'm reminded that they're not for me. Even with daily commuting, I only fill my 12gal tank 10 times annually. I've put, at most, $8000 of gas into my car in the last decade.

I want the geeky toy, but it's just not sensible. If I want to make 50mpg instead of 35, I just have to drive carefully and draft behind trucks.
>Moths have mouthparts, butterflies generally don't

I'm not sure where you get that information. Butterflies also feed on nectar from plants, so they do have mouthparts.

On another note, some butterflies (and maybe moths) are cannibals [1] and feed on their own caterpillars:

"Some butterflies don’t only look like horror movie stars, but are horrors in themselves. Milkweed butterflies (Danainae) — the same subfamily that includes the regal monarch — are vampiric cannibals that use clawed feet to tear open their own caterpillars and mercilessly suck the guts out of them. But why devour your own offspring from the inside out? It’s an even stranger phenomenon known as kleptopharmacophagy."

I assumed everyone can see visual noise too, based on my photography experience. Why wouldn't eyes get grain like film or a sensor does? I can see it under most conditions so maybe I just have higher ISO eyes than most people. It probably comes with my other neurodivergent sensory sensitivities.

In the first example, you have to implement the file reading approach now, then the database reading/writing approach, plus a migration script. You did extra work that you would not have done with the DB-first approach (migration + the initial system that goes to trash)

In real life, as projects get more complex, the migration + initial system cost is so high that I'd rather come up with a clean architecture first. Also, it's more fun as a programmer to know that you are not working on a dirty solution.

Also, in real life, if we scale up these examples, maintenance cost can be higher for the dirty solution.
Embree 4.0 Is Running Well on Intel 4th Gen Xeon “Sapphire Rapids”
Except that the Tesla he wanted at the time he wanted to purchase it was $76,000 more than my Fiat. The existence of $30k Teslas at other points in spacetime do not change that fact.

If we rework the example with a $30k Tesla, that's still $26k more than my used car, which brings the break-even point down to about 150,000 miles (if you assume electricity going into the EV is without cost) or somewhere around 225,000 miles if you go with the previous poster's assumption that price per mile is one third of an ICE engine.

I (absolutely) got a cranking deal on my Fiat. But if you compare a new Tesla at $35,000 with a new Camry, it (the Tesla) is starting to look more compelling, but as long as ICE vehicles have functionality left in them, it's probably more environmentally conscious and economically sound to drive them.

That being said... if you want a Tesla, get a Tesla. But if your objective is to drive around cheaply, I don't think it's the cheapest option.
Yes. I understand this could be only my requirement. I always wanted to use web in Vscode, copy the error messages from terminal to inbuilt browser, and copy code from web back to terminal or editor. I also wanted to listen music, watch tutorials either from local or from web. I also wanted to develop extension that support these requirements. But I felt limited extending Vscode.
They cared enough to implement detection and blocking.
There's plenty of historical examples of sub-optimal standards developing enough traction and network effects that the whole industry is stuck with them for decades. Initially you did need to pull in a library to parse JSON, it wasn't part of the JS language until Crockford pushed for it (via his later position of authority at Yahoo working on YUI).

Particularly in the early web, the need for async "liveness" of pages didn't exist, so pages didn't consume backends directly. Everything was handled on refresh or navigation and server rendered as HTML. It was only after AJAX-style web apps took off (post-Gmail, really), that JSON started to get real traction. There were no JSON parsers in C#, Java, Python, etc initially. XML was far more common and SOAP was generally used for cross-endpoint communication.

I would argue that those are either similar enough to not be wasteful or dissimilar enough to not be redundant. Lubuntu is just Ubuntu with some minor differences in default packages and configs; there's not enough difference there to be wasteful. OTOH, Ubuntu, at least for a long time, was genuinely much more friendly to beginners than Debian, partially just because they could get patches in faster, and partially because they had a looser standard around non-free packages. There was divergence but for a good reason, and the projects have largely collaborated over the years so that the source code changes are shared where sensible but they target slightly different audiences with different support systems. Well, there's also Canonical just being Canonical but there's no way to solve that.

What userspace API exists (for non-App Store iOS apps) for one app to install another and integrate with iOS’ App Management features? or basically, to break-out of the iOS App Silo/Sandbox?

The only alternative is basically a VM-like app silo that hosts other apps inside of it… I can see this working for something like a Java JVM “Jar-runner” or MAME but I’m not sure how it would work for native code that assumes it has its own process and void main() method.

I’m hoping that we’ll see something like how Cydia was around 2013ish (with managed system extensions, kernel-mode things, enhancements to Springboard, etc) but that’s the last thing Apple would want (case-in-point, where have all the cool system-modifying kexts for desktop MacOS gone?) - so I suspect Apple’s EU-only sideloading will still protect system integrity, maybe even with a way to completely block non-AppStore apps’ processes from using non-public (but still usermode) APIs and services?

Considering how unprofessionally petulant and churlish Apple acted in the aftermath of the Dutch dating-app spat last year I’m expecting them to do the same with this. See https://daringfireball.net/2022/02/going_dutch

I don't understand the obsession with having Chat GPT4 spit out code for problems like this, where clearly the desired goal would be to have it run the model and display a graph or chart or closed form solution. Like Tony Stark asking Jarvis to run some simulations or calculations and show the solutions in an intuitive way.

Is anyone working on something like this? I would be surprised if Wolfram wasn't working on it.

Perhaps I should have clarified, but I didn't need to pump gas. I had plenty of range to leave. The point I apparently failed to make was that the range of my ICE meant I didn't have to consider or plan for this contingency. In fact I used my car to charge some electronics and still had ample range to get back to civilization a few hours away.

If it were an EV then I would have had to find the nearest place to charge that did have power, which isn't trivial.

I agree if it's just travel between major population centers then it's not as big of a deal. There just happens to be a ton of travel that isn't between major population centers, and I'm not talking about camping.

Simply put an EV is just not as useful today as I wish I were. I'd just like to be able to visit family without getting stranded.

He did it, then got caught, then admitted to it. The one mitigating point is that he did say he was sorry and that he wouldn't do it again. Mind, I'm saying this as somebody who deleted my account over this exact incident (straw that broke the camel's back), but there it is.
This is indeed what literally happens in tons of sectors where standards are adopted or mandated by law.
This is like the cartoonishly strawman version of this argument. Also the text file example is awful.

Do you really want do deal with durability and parsing a flat file, etc? Is that really easier that using a simple database? I see these kinds of arguments a lot from developers who think things like relational databases are hard to use, which artificially inflates the argument against "extra complexity"

There are hard tradeoffs to make, and the interesting arguments are in the place where reasonable people disagree about what kind of robustness will be needed over a particular timescale. It's never as simple as "it won't scale" where it's obvious to everyone that having millions of users tomorrow isn't realistic.
No, cities are even less dangerous for most people by that measure. Most people in cities aren’t in gang, nor are they dealing drugs or picking up hookers on the Highway. This is a well known issue, even in “dangerous” cities like St. Louis, homicide victims are often related to the perpetrators in some way (eg in an opposing gang). Violent crime victims are also more likely to be poor (this is true in rural areas as well).

> Almost nobody ever says 10 [...] "So, everything is 100% perfect and you want it to stay the same forever?"

But I mean, "it's not perfect" doesn't imply "I want you to change something", right? To exaggerate a bit to get my point across: I'd love our meetings more if they included pony rides in the middle, but that doesn't mean I think we should incorporate pony riding sessions into our meetings. It feels weird to take all "this isn't perfect" messages to mean "you can/should be doing better" - things might not be perfect but they might just be good enough.

Capturing the Flag with GPT-4
> I speak four languages out of necessity, not by choice.

I also speak four languages and mostly agree with your take. I'm native in Spanish; English I learned gaming, and reading Tolkien as a kid. The other two, German and French due to a combination of self interest, education and travel. While I often fantasize about picking up a couple more (namely Norwegian and Japanese), I quickly become disappointed as I go through the motions all over again. It's a huge mental effort for a seemingly low _tangible_ ROI.

Sure, listening to music or reading in the target language and understanding most of it is quite the magical experience, probably similar to what cracking a secret code feels like; but there is no practical gain to it afterwards. It's a bit like reading/writing poetry: an intense but ephemeral enjoyment. More of an art form than anything else really. Unless, of course, you find yourself immersed in the language by way of relocation, then it truly does make sense to learn it. I do get your point with Dutch though: now you've got to figure out a fifth system for conveying an idea you're perfectly capable of saying in four other systems; it gets tiring.

I've been comparing it with programming languages lately. The question often pops up in HN: "what's the best programming language to build a backend in?" -- imagine you already can build a great backend in Python/Go/TS but you start picking up Rust only for the purposes of building said backend, what's the point? Just use whichever language you know best and build the damn thing already. Simple enough right? As is often the case though, this type of analysis is superficial; you may build a fantastic backend in say, Clojure, but then miss out on the opportunities a more popular language with a larger community may have to offer (e.g. Python). Writing Python may not necessarily provide general cognitive advantages over writing Clojure, but it will give you easier _access_ to the entire ML ecosystem, for instance. Does being capable of using more powerful tools help develop cognitive advantages?

I only read the abstract, but even if _Bilingualism Affords No General Cognitive Advantages_, learning a second language, English specifically, has unquestionably changed my life.
I have a feeling everyone can see the noise, but they just have never noticed it before. On the drug they noticed it, and after the trip couldn't forget it was there.

The paper is tapping on a long-standing debate about the effects of being bilingual. For a long time, it was thought that being bilingual was actively harmful, and indeed it's been shown in studies that babies with parents who speak different languages to them are slower to reach some linguistic milestones. Later research showed that this was just temporary, and not only was there no negative effect, but bilingual kids tended to do better on some tests of aptitude than monolinguals. And now this study is saying that no, maybe they're not better after all.

Congrats on the launch, you've done a great job. The app looks good and you've clearly and persuasively differentiated it from the competition.
I also don't experience the extra cognitive load of choosing between languages when trying to express ideas, unless I'm trying to learn a new vocabulary word that I'm not familiar with. In specific, I can't relate to the commenter's point that: "When trying to think of a word, it comes to you in four different languages, which isn't helpful!"

As objective evidence, I use a software app called Glossika to practice listening and speaking to some extent, where the software plays a spoken English audio phrase and pauses before playing the translated audio. When I see the English for the phrase "The computer crashed" in Spanish track, the Spanish equivalent only comes to mind, and I don't simultaneously think of the French translation—even though I'm later asked to translate the same English phrase in the French track. At the start of each track, I have a certain context in mind (to make responses in a particular language), so I don't personally struggle with having to consciously focus to avoid mixing up words. In my experience, after at most ~20 seconds or so working in the target language, I say the right translations without any extra conscious effort of avoiding the usage of the wrong language.

The same goes for conversation practice. At the very worst—sometimes at the very start of a conversation—I can mix up a basic word. But after about less than a minute or so of speech, I'm think and express only in the language I'm practicing; I don't continually struggle with interference with other languages.

For my personal experience, studying both French and Spanish has even been beneficial for vocabulary acquisition. Learning that "le public" means audience in French made it a lot easier to shortly after remember that "el público" also means audience in Spanish. The sounds in French and Spanish are different, along with the words that typically surround new vocabulary words, so I don't personally struggle with choosing between different word options from different languages.

Speaking French and Spanish also has a separation due to the way that pronunciation physically feels. The back-of-the-throat guttural R in French especially feels and sounds a lot different than the Spanish trilled R with a vibrating tongue near the front teeth—so there is a barrier to mixing up French and Spanish words with these different sounds, as they "feel" very different to say in the mouth and throat. Spanish words also have a "stress" on the second-last syllable or syllable with a certain accent (e.g. Le envió for "I sent it to you" with a stress on the accented ió), whereas French has roughly equal stresses as a "syllable-timed" language [1], so the feelings of speaking the languages are very different, even if the vocabulary can be similar at a first glance.

In summary, I just can't relate at all to the idea of "juggling" between languages from practice with audio programs and conversation practice each week, though I recognize that different people have different experiences.

You don't need 200A to charge at home. I've got 150A service and have no problems charging at 32A.

Even at 12A charging at home is still pretty viable. 12A * 240V = 2.88kW. I'll round down to like 2.5kW for some charging losses, average at least 3.5mi/kWh, and that's 8.75mi of range an hour. 8 hours of scheduled charging and that's 70mi of charge.

Are you pulling over 100A of power at midnight normally?
I've been managing teams for 16 years, I think it's actually really beneficial to stay hands on in lead or director roles. After that it's usually not possible given the work load. It improves team alignment, you can evaluate people's work better, understand their issues better and help level them up.

Some of the companies that promoted the hands-off style of management, like Twilio are currently really struggling. Datadog is a great example of a more hands on approach and they are crushing it. If tech is more core to a company, people should stay hands on.
Ah gotcha. I read it completely differently and didn't even think of that. Thanks
