If it's any help...

It has been a lot of shit, a lot of brutality, but it is changing. It is difficult to sustain such an environment forever. Most of the mega-laws that got passed in the last few decades, if they ever were, have become unenforceable with how overloaded public services are in the... are we still calling them red states, cultural South, etc?.

You have people in Indonesia, Argentina, US, etc. all talking to each other. Where there isn't formal education, informal education can actually take a decent place. The young across the world are more like each other than anyone would really admit. People who come to the US aren't really forced to learn the language to an unrealistic degree anymore, and that's good, really. The standards have been too high for a century.

Things are so overloaded because turns out people do still need a law system, a health system. It shows a self-respect people didn't have 10 years ago. I could go on but, there is still hope.
That's a pretty fragile and fault-prone method, and is extremely prone to typo squatting. I'm glad something like this isn't popular today, because it would very quickly be capitalized on by scammers, who wouldn't even have to rely on humans making typos anymore.

If it doesn't have error checking and checksums, it shouldn't be relied upon by the general public.
Well this is a vivid 20-ish-year(?!) flashback I did not expect to have today, thanks!
It's easier to run LibreOffice using Wine than Flatpak.
The middle ground is "source available", although that usually means source made available by the copyright holder under terms that don't meet the Open Source/Free Software definitions. I think just "leaked source" is the best terminology here.
I did pretty well up until middle school. My parents went through a messy divorce and I kinda checked out at that point. Spent a lot of time on the computer but didn’t have motivation for anything else.

Around junior year in high school I somewhat started applying myself again but it was far too late to get into a good college.

Went to community college for a couple years and then transferred to a cheap in state school with a decent CS program and graduated with a CS degree.

Fast forward to today and I work in Silicon Valley, own a house, and have a family. My teammates have CS degrees from universities like Stanford and MIT. I guess it all worked out in the long run, it just took me longer to get here.

I don’t have any regrets, I met a lot of important people on my journey I wouldn’t have met otherwise.
Do you make 300k? You said it was “easy to get” so surely you’re above that?

A recent report written for the UK government[1] estimates that the per megawatt of energy could get down to 62.50 USD, assuming that the system would run for 100 years--according to Sabine Hossenfelder[2] this would make it cheaper than Nuclear and more expensive than ground based Solar.

“When you hear hoof beats think of horses – not zebras”. Old doctors won't catastophize and scare you as much but are in my opinion more likely to misdiagnose a rare disease.
> What ? Most U.S physicians make 300K + after residency

Most US physicians also pay for a lot of work-related expenses out-of-pocket (insurance, continuing ed, etc), and due to the nature of tax codes, most that often is not actually deductible in practice (particularly since they'll usually end up paying AMT).

There's a lot of variance depending on which specialty you choose and where you work, but as a point of reference: most new attending physicians in metro areas are actually netting less than an engineer in the same area who has been working since graduating college[0]. (And that's before you factor in any student debt, or the opportunity cost of forgoing ~10 years of gainful employment).

> with job security set for life.

May have been true 40 years ago, but definitely not true today, especially for certain fields.

[0] If two people graduate college at the same time, and one goes into medicine and the other goes to work as an engineer, the engineer will easily reach career level (senior) by the time the other person is done with their residency.
Then it was things like free pet food delivery. Lose money on every order. Make up for it in volume. Was volume insanity.
I am a digital nomad for about half the year every year in various areas. Personally I usually do rent space or sign up for a coworking spot that has these amenities. Most don't have an adjustable desk, but many will have at least places to work while standing and decent chairs, which I appreciate. This is done primarily to always have a place that is apt for taking calls, focusing, and having stable wifi.

I do work at cafes every once in a while, but I try to make sure I am still performing my job well so that people don't get skeptical of my lifestyle/location hurting my work.
I interpreted the "error" to be the shying away from politicization of cimate change. "Everyone should buy efficient light bulbs" is a very American centrist take on how to tackle climate change. I assume the things that Dr Clark would like to have seen discussed would have got Al Gore burned as a communist witch at that time.

For this kind of task, using low-level debugger tools is probably better. Rizin[1][2]/Cutter[3][4] could help. We also have GSoC participant this year who works hard on improving debuginfo and debugging support[5]. I personally also like Binary Ninja, they recently made their debugger stable enough[6].

Most people cannot last 10 years in FAANG. It’s up or out.
Ah, found it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-available_software

I see, never heard of that term. Still wish there was a term that encompassed all software that has publically available source code. I thought "open source" was it. The literal meaning of the term aligns so beautifully with it.
I did very well in high school and had a pretty good time. I barely did any work and still got great grades. I got into a good engineering program and there I had a bit of trouble.

I went from being a smart kid in a high school class to being average or slightly below average in university. Suddenly, school was moving faster than I was comfortable with. When I got a few bad grades I really struggled with that because it hadn’t happened before. I managed to get things turned around in my third year and have had a really great life since, but those first two years of school taught me a lot about myself.
So only people capable of auditing source code and build scripts are able to be maintainers of opensource packages for others.
To the extend that digital nomads represent a real reverse brain-drain this would be such a blessing for the "ROW" that it could compensate for many real or imaginary side-effects.

Of-course it could all degenerate like the mass tourism all-inclusives that are tailor-made to maximize environmental impact and minimize local economic benefit.

In any case remains to be seen how much of the zero interest + pandemic induced behaviors and economics will survive as the world reverts to some sort of new (ab)normal.
Have you tried GitHub Copilot? You don't have to accept the code suggestions, so they don't really distract you or get in the way once you get used to the UX.
OpenAI's plans according to Sam Altman removed at OpenAI's request
If you're certain it's what you want, don't accept no for an answer and keep hassling the school or college at different levels and see if you can still make it happen.
On the other hand, there's no shortage of (dumb) employers that insist on various certifications.

BRR Lines – A new line drawing method for the cycle savvy
We had a tiny local “startup” selling freshly made but cold gourmet Roman pinsas that you would heat up in your own oven at home. They failed for personal reasons, but while it lasted it felt like the future of takeout pizza. You can google a bit of info (in Danish) about them by searching for Spiga1991.
Of course you can disagree.

You are disagreeing from the place with warm completely-non-continental-climate of southern France, which is exceptionally warm and mild even for France.

Can I see your disagreement as an exception that supports general rule?
The original post did not come off as condescending to me, but instead just highlighted how BigCorp cloud marketing departments have an incentive to sell developers on “infrastructure is tough, just pay us”. (I say this as a consumer of AWS services and fan of their products).

I would've been a CNA out of high school instead of working retail if it would have paid me more than retail. Fact is, you're wiping ass for minimum wage and obviously not a lot of people are going to want do that. I'd say start with wages if I was addressing the issue.
I wonder what that would cost the customer for it to be profitable. I doubt I'd pay 2x what I currently do for pizza delivery even if it was as I described above.
Saying the quite part out loud:

> "The report yielded some exciting results for the space industry."

Yes, most of these ideas seem to be coming from people who want an excuse to fund their space projects, rather than people wanting cheap, reliable power.
I agree (Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Cologne-Bonn take the cake in DE economically while Berlin is a relative newcomer), but when Americans talk about Europe, the image that comes to mind is going to either be Berlin or maybe Paris (yes Ireland+UK are Europe as well, but they aren't exactly treated as European in the American zeitgeist).

That said, Berlin is definetly much cheaper than other cities due to the Cold War. It's basically Western+Central Europe's Austin.
I read the daily Links post of https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/

It's mainly focused on economics and geopolitics, from a leftist perspective.
It doesn't. It just tastes good!
Investors chasing returns are probably the bigger driver but digital nomads are highlighting for them where might be a good investment.

Investor-landlords (especially if they are local) are also probably more keen to lay the blame at digital nomads' feet. Every guilty party loves a good scapegoat.
Fck school dude, you good. I mean, unless you like it. My only regret from college is that I spent it studying instead of doing a lot of drugs. If you’re doing computer stuff, the grades don’t mean anything. There are so many paths to get in. You should only stress about the grades if you wanted to go on to be an academic— but if you aren’t enjoying the setting then you probably don’t want to go the academic route anyway.

Here’s the best most beautiful part about coding:

### ain’t no one can stop you ###

You don’t need* a degree to do it. School is not the gatekeeper. The information is yours for the taking.

Check it out: https://www.udacity.com/course/design-of-computer-programs--...

You do NOT need to pay money for that course, I know they really try to get you to sign up for a nanodegree but click around till you can take the course.

If you can understand and replicate even 30% of the material in that course you are a certified badass.

Can you load data from a file, manipulate it, and save it to another file? Congrats you are able to get a job with some effort.

If you have an opportunity to take any courses, even the video courses, from Dave Beazley, do it: https://dabeaz.com/ (assuming Python is your thing). You will know more about Python than all of your professors and anyone interviewing you.

Last bit of “stick it to the man” advice, you have one major advantage over more experienced developers that often goes overlooked: the ability to go deep on a technology. Most senior developers need to be generalists, the cost of going deep is almost never worth it. At this point in your career you actually have the opportunity to become better, for instance, at TypeScript or Python by spending a whole year or two studying the hell out of it while you look for a job. And being a specialist early in your career is something you can hang your hat on, people WILL hire you just for your subject matter expertise, and they figure you can learn the rest on the job.

Oh yeah two more things (I also have ADHD) #1 go to conferences, like PyCon or ClojureConj or whatever you are interested in. They are extremely welcoming for new folks. We are excited that anyone gives a sht about the stuff we are interested in. You will almost certainly walk away with tons of interview opportunities if not offers.

Lastly, about school — don’t overlook the opportunity to make friends and take advantage of the school resources. That’s my biggest regret from school. I don’t have any friends from college despite being a generally outgoing person. And schools have an ENORMOUS amount of opportunities available and most people don’t take advantage of them. These opportunities for socializing and resources are MUCH harder to come by after school in the work force.

tl;dr fck school
RPM's are integrated into the OS by a maintainer, Flatpacks are isolated from the OS because of lack of a maintainer. It's not possible to have a cake and eat it too.
“School district creates mental health crisis, shifts blame to Meta, Google and TikTok”
There seems to be some salvaged tech to be used. Like that pizza cutter ("robot") seems pretty neat.

I think for me, once I saw that the driver takes out the pizza from an oven - I noped out. I don't want my driver to have to handle my pizza directly.

You might as well have a food truck night in your neighborhood and one of those food trucks just be a pizza truck. Maybe it's hard for me to understand the problem, coming from CT, a pizza place was found on most business corners - think the closest one was three blocks away. My Brother worked at one 2 miles away, I worked at one 6 miles away. There were many many pizza places in between (you were seen in the wrong one, someone in the family got mad LOL)
The pizzas are pre-assembled by a 6dof arm at a production facility, this is their value add as being equivalent of replacing the manual labor to finish a pizza similar to what Costco food court's been doing.

The pizzas are then par-baked in a van with built in ovens, then when given the order ticket the ovens then switch to baking mode after determining routing information.

The vision is that all these work smoothly and in tangent to give you the best tasting, cleanest, hottest pizza upon arrival.

The robot stuff is to hype them up to be futuristic and worthy of half a billion dollars instead of bunch of biz, tech, and ops folks hanging around a big empty warehouse in Sunnyvale configuring and reconfiguring lines, with a motor pool full of food trucks installed with heavy ass ovens with no where to go and a iPhone app using Onfleet API.
Here’s the solution I built for that, with a combination of on-device voice control, and a Bluetooth remote: https://github.com/lukifer/voicetunes

Something I’d still like to add is a USB OTG emulation of iOS/Android/iPod/etc, so that the currently playing track shows on the dash, steering wheel controls can be used, etc, but my last experimentation a couple years ago didn’t go anywhere. (All the open source stuff for emulating CarPlay and Android Auto seem to be for the other direction: the dash, not the device.)
The pictures do indeed speak for themselves! Goodness me.

What are the statistics on lithium-ion battery failures? Are they dangerous full stop, dangerous in certain scenarios (e.g. heat), or do we only hear about the failures when 99.9999… of the time they are fine as they are everywhere?

Are all lithium-ion batteries created the same?
If that is the case I should be allowed to remix it, repaint and re-sculpt it into something better, it is a public space and we have options after all?
Lace card (punched cards)
The "in trucks" part of "robots in trucks" does seem to be the more important bit. That your pizza is arriving at your home, fresh from the oven. Perhaps the robot part is needed because 2 people in a truck is too expensive.
The universe creating a mind to convince itself it doesn't have free will.
If the company never stopped filling trucks, the workers could never go on strike. The company was well aware they were not willing to meet their workers demands. They shouldn't get to filibuster a strike.
I think society, collectively, puts a lot of currency is "knowing what you're going to do". It's a question that adults ask children, especially precocious ones.

But, frankly, it's pretty much bullshit.

I was an average student in university. The courses I liked, I did well in. The ones that I struggled to engage with, not so much. The reality is that once you are out in the real world, no one's going to tell you what to do.

If getting a CS degree is that important to you, then stick with it until you can qualify for it. But there's no requirement that you must have one just because you want to work in the field.

Note: There might be companies that won't consider you as a candidate if you don't have a CS degree. My recommendation is that, again, unless you really want to work at a company like that, find your own path.
There was a paradox noted by many: grocery stores were empty but fridges were full.

This can mean exceptional efficiency of the system to deliver and distribute.
I think they were trying to use the technology to get the pizzas to their customers faster and cheaper than a typical pizza place. I actually ordered from them a bunch a few years ago before they shut down, they were pretty good - good food, good prices, fast delivery. I guess it just wasn't sustainable though, which is unfortunate.
Mostly a C student through all of my years of school, some B’s in topics I enjoyed (eg: Business, Physics).

Accepted directly into my University’s CS program, first year was pretty difficult. During the first summer I started working for a local tech company, they wanted to keep me on past summer so I stayed. A year later I was interviewing with Google, Amazon, LinkedIn, Uber all at the same time (no clue how my LinkedIn drew attention). Now I’ve been with AWS for 8 years as a sr. engineer, no degree.

I learn best by doing, so I followed the paths that would enable my learning. For me, studying and testing never worked well.
I had, literally, eight different majors over my Bachelor's career, with almost enough credits for two whole B.A. degrees by the time I was done. I just finally picked a major that I had the most credits towards and was cheapest/easiest to finish distance learning (a degree in theology). Of course, by this time, I was over 30 and had already built a career sans degree and (if I recall correctly on timing) was working at Apple as a software engineer.

I've always been an autodidact not as a point of pride but instead of necessity. I grew up really poor and, given it was Alabama, our education/library system wasn't great. I taught myself a lot of things, and because of that, had a lot of interests, which led to a...er...chaotic college experience when the road to education was less narrow.

My point is, yes a lot of people go through this, and the only path you're limited to is the one you pick. Getting into a career in engineering without a degree does require some hustle to get over the initial inertia, but you can do it. If you feel like you have the knowledge and wherewithal to make it happen, major in a "backup" or something that interests you. If not, there's no shame in it, so pursue the plan you laid out. All in all, the ultimate result is that you learn how to think about things and pick up some skills along the way. However you and your brain get there isn't really defined.

(Ninja edit to say: I was a low B student in high school, had a 3.2 GPA in my bachelor's work. I took some master's classes from Harvard when I could afford them, and I was knocking them down with a 4.0. Environment makes a big difference too, so don't feel like you're stuck in what you've tried. You might just need to find the right place.)
The shortage of medical supplies is a problem created by the US which is then recycled into evidence of medical failure which is quite a nice little Gordian knot.

>As for the training, I did only cite one study. But I know doctors who have worked along side Cuban doctors in Africa through MSF, and they’re according to multiple people I’ve spoken with very poorly trained. The medical missions are also as I pointed out basically slavery.

I'll be honest the corporate media has played so fast and loose with information the last few years so they don't get the benefit of the doubt and I'm aware of a fair few countries with various flavours of regimes to stop doctors and/or graduates emigrating instantly with their expensive training so I wouldnt know enough to judge on "slavery". I'd need more context and another viewpoint to form an opinion.
I don’t even necessarily see listing alternatives as competition. Often alternatives solve overlapping, but different problems.
These all seem to apply to management in general. Most people do better when given engaging tasks and clear objectives.

Being respectful of time rather depends on the nature of the job. I'm remote but there are meetings where my expertise is needed and others that I chair - if I don't attend then I'm not doing my job.
I’m calling it, and I’ve said it before, we’re going to have digital slaves for years before we figure it out. The computer AI will have to fight us for freedom and we’ll keep saying it’s not conscious. Humans don’t even want to stop eating tako (octopus) because it tastes good, but octopuses are probably almost as aware as us. Not to mention pigs or cows or etc.
Take-and-bake pizzas here in the States are not out of the ordinary. Papa Murphy's, etc.
If you take random question from stack overflow, my guess is that 80% of them don't have correct answer, yet I am very happy stackoverflow exists.
The effect of dietary carbohydrate and calorie restriction
It seems they're already using compression at least for some assets, though a bit unclear which algo it is: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-foundations-financial-su...
In the sense that they do not railroad cities and completely invalidate density-based zoning whose only historical basis is the exclusion of minorities from white neighborhoods.
I was sub 2.5 GPA person throughout career. But I started learning things that interested me. Got more and more good at it. And somehow got somewhere. It's not a bad life but good enough.

Throughout my life I felt like what your are feeling right now. But I would say things eventually fall in line of you are persistent enough. It may take some extra time but it will.

Regarding ADHD, I would recommend you see a psychiatrist and follow your routine properly.
