>I'm one that believes that the only way to be successful is to be in it for the long term, 10+ years, and in a winning ETF or mutual fund.

There was a study done a while ago that found that nearly all funds fail to consistently beat a simple index fund. So I don't think you need to invest in a "winning" fund so much as you need to stick with the consistent returns of an index fund (which tend to give you a nicely diversified basket of stocks). And index funds also have some of the lowest possible management fees -- the one thing you can control.

The rule-of-thumb is to assume the S&P 500 grows by at least 7% a year -- so, your investment doubles every 10 years. That's a good rate of return. If you're investing for retirement, you can also factor in your tax savings when investing in an IRA. (Since you also get to keep the 10-20% of your investment that would otherwise have gone to the IRS.)

My advice would be to check into a low-fee S&P 500 fund for your IRA. It's had positive returns in 22 of the last 28 years.

The average annualized return since adopting 500 stocks into the index in 1957 through Dec. 31, 2022, is 10.15%.
According to the psychological continuity theory, it shouldn't matter what happens to the original body, as long as the experience is the same. Whether your original body is vaporized or shot, you experience entering the teleporter on Earth and emerging from the teleporter on Mars a moment later. You weren't killed, you were transferred to a different body.

Of course, you don't have to agree with the premise that personal identity is psychological continuity. But I think there are other thought experiments that make the bodily continuity theory counter-intuitive. What if my brain was transplanted in such a way that I experienced going to sleep in my body and waking up in someone else's body, with my memory and personality otherwise unchanged? The bodily continuity theory says I would be a different person, but my intuition is that I would still be the same person, just with a different outward appearance.
Since Blizzard closed WoW in China, I found https://www.azerothcore.org/. They have a simple docker setup tutorial. I’ve been playing for a month and it’s been very interesting because they only support the English client. I’ve also learned a lot of English and currently feel great exploring the whole world alone.
I'd suggest having them in a directory just called config/

On having it start with a dot: Why? Why would we pretend that these crucial files don't exist?

On having it named meta: These files aren't "about" the project or "above" the project, they ARE the project.
Their children feel bad about themselves because they can't accept who their fathers were. In these offspring, that hate is always there somewhere and comes out in other ways, directed at other things, often outgroups. An antidote is Blaise Pascal's observation that, "To understand is to forgive," which has a lot of depth to it.

The animus in the culture right now is divided between those who have some acceptance of their fathers, and those who don't. It's not just a right/left thing either, as that animus decides whether someone chooses to be an unworthy person who blames, betrays, and justifies their own cruelty to others because of what they imagine they suffered themselves - or not. Understand who he was and consider that a lot of the anger at "The World," was really just pent up anger at him. Personally, I think a key role of a father is to moderate the urges for cruelty, vanity, conceit, self pity, and other vices that mothers often overlook and forgive, and mainly by example.
That's an incredibly apples-to-oranges comparison! S3 does cloud storage and nothing much else; MacOS runs your whole desktop. Apple's (primary) target audience is Joe-on-the-street consumers; AWS's is devs and businesses. The only comparison relevant in this case, is that they both have AI voice bots, and FWIW, I have no more intention of ever using Alexa than I do of ever using Siri (nor any of the rest of 'em!).
Then we both get to be confused by each other's comments.
Albert's comment wasn't about himself, but about an article he wrote that I found quite relevant to the Miles Davis article.

He compares Miles' onstage behavior when another musician is soloing with Art Blakey's very different approach.

It's worth reading them both, and I am glad they were both called to my attention.

To answer your question about why it's at the top of the comment thread, I'm sure you already know the answer: multiple people like myself found it interesting and upvoted it.

Complaining about that won't change anything.

I am often frustrated at the poor visibility out of modern cars and I wonder how many crashes are caused by the poor visibility. It is the other side of the tradeoff that crash survivability data will not show- how many crashes would have been avoided altogether with better visibility.
Adoption as in numbers to please some department or board (or even a lone server owner) probably isn't. Not in general.

Adoption as in getting more and more interesting people posting and talking? Probably yes, because if it's not then I suppose I don't get what the heck this could be all about.
Now, I'm not sure where that comes from but I've heard this particular theory and it was China for some reason, not Russia.
The pain isn't so much the $1MM of lost money (though that does matter), it's the enormous emotional cost of losing all your work.

> Why can't it just be a place where people learn and research and support each other?

It is - for tenured professors at good schools. But getting to that point is intensely competitive, and the vast majority of people don't make it.
It’s a wee bit silly given that the article has “Y chromosome” all over it. But this is an article about cancer, and one could just as easily imagine that testosterone levels, or estrogen levels, or amounts of various types of tissue, etc could affect incidence of various types of cancer.

For example, brief searching found:

XY people with this condition have rather different cancer risk profiles than the general population of XX cis females or XY cis males.

Plenty (in fact the majority) of Jews murdered in the Holocaust were not German.

They were murdered because they were Jews. In your examples the men were murdered for being on the opposing side, and so a possible threat (unlike the women and children).
Do you have any plans to support something like json resume, or fresh, both import and export?

It’s my main quibble with various resume tools; ending up with something I won’t be able to reuse when I have to update it, and thus will need to do it all over again by hand, from scratch.

No a criticism; just candid hope and curiosity.

- this happens from time to time. Your situation is bad, but not unique. Other examples include: weather on Christmas Eve.

First step is get food / water, whatever you need to feel grounded. If you are calm, the agent who can help you will be calm and calm agents can work wonders. If you are angry, upset, frustrated, hungry, tired (all responsible responses to the situation) the agent will turn into a robot and not go out of their way to help you.

If you want to fly out; find a more senior agent (can be hard to do in a bigger airport). Don’t ask for one directly, instead look for the subtle signs: confident but slightly less put together clothing, someone dressed as a manager - but who is doing customer service, someone who is helping other agents, etc.

Then it’s a two step process:

1) ask them to put you on a standby list on a flight to get out of the airport, doesn’t matter where, just a pick a hub closer to your destination than the current one. It will take a couple tries, but at every flight, show up to the gate and stay until the door is closed and the airplane is pushed back. If you don’t make it, ask to be rolled over to the next one. Especially in weird situations there is constantly a couple people that do not show.

2) once you get to the other hub, kindly ask them to rebook you the rest of the way home.

I’m not following all that. Someone made an offer, the board legally had to sell as it was in the interest of the owners (the shareholders). What else matters? If it’s deemed to be in the interest of shareholders for Reddit to sell off every sub to a corporate, they’ll do that too.

Highway looks nice. I'm in Rust these days, and SIMD support there is remarkably terrible in comparison. And I'm not nearly close enough to being an expert on the subject to contribute anything upstream to improve that. AVX512 is available only if you compile against nightly still.

Check out Miles Davis critiquing some poor kid after a performance:

It's not quite as bad as I remember it, but man he could be an ass.
Yeah agreed, CS Lewis has said a lot about the body and the soul, a few come to mind from first Mere Christianity and then a quote from Screwtape Letters

“And let me make it quite clear that when Christians say the Christ-life is in them, they do not mean simply something mental or moral /…/this new life is spread not only by purely mental acts like belief, /…/ It is not merely the spreading of an idea; it is more like evolution–a biological or super-biological fact. There is no good trying to be more spiritual than God. God never meant man to be a purely spiritual creature. That is why He uses material things like bread and wine to put the new life into us. We may think this rather crude and unspiritual. God does not: He invented eating. He likes matter. He invented it.”

(Screwtape gives advice to use a “body doesn’t matter” philosophy as a way of making the human distracted or ineffective)
“At the very least, they can be persuaded that the bodily position makes no difference to their prayers; for they constantly forget, what you must always remember, that they are animals and that whatever their bodies do affects their souls. It is funny how mortals always picture us as putting things into their minds: in reality our best work is done by keeping things out.”
Windows has one habit which I detest and I don't know why it acts this way: if you leave your drive disconnected for long enough, it will disable File History entirely and nag you about reconnecting and re-setting it up all over again. That recalcitrance is what discourages me from keeping it going at all. I just give up, it's not important enough to keep going through all that.

If it were really important for Windows not to have the drive disconnected for too long, it would issue pre-emptive warnings before the timeout was reached, but it doesn't, it just shames you after the horse has left the barn.
Even standard cars are bad these days. I don’t get much from my review mirror at all, especially compared to the Subaru I had in the late 90s. Pillar placement in a unibody might have something to do with it, rear windows also seem smaller.
I wonder about the effect of complex balancing activities (dancing, sports, yoga, even drumming) onto our brain.

Yeah hiding these files would be a huge mistake.
It is not a father's job to be the person a child goes to for emotional support. A father is indeed supposed to pass down masculinity and how to manage it and how to become a socially functional and acceptable man.

Mothers on the other hand are supposed to be the primary person that provides emotional support and care. But, the immediate community is supposed to provide that support as well.

This is how human society has functioned through history. This is how we naturally function.

Fathers being emotional support, mothers being distant and the community being a cold and harsh distant group of people does not work.

Teachers and social workers are not "the community". Children don't need psychoanalysis and being taught to think of themsleves as victims if their parents are too busy to attend their school presentations and sports activities and all that, because you have the community right there embracing you and supporting you.

"It takes a village to raise a child" not paid employees of schools and governments and psychoanalysts helping politicians draft policies.

The entire context of how this question is even being asked is wrong imo.

"A child that is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth"

Asking masculine fathers to be emotional or telling children the entire burden of their successful upbringing is on the shoulders of their parents is not only incorrect, it reminds me of the proverb "don't grade a fish on its ability to climb a tree". If it is unnatural for a father to support a child a certain way and it is natural for a mother, what is wrong with that?

XMPP as a product was growing and doing fine until it completely failed to operate in the model of modern smart phones that have to use push services to stay connected. This Reddit link has some good descriptions of the limitations: https://www.reddit.com/r/xmpp/comments/np8i2l/why_does_it_se....

In a world where mobile matters first and foremost xmpp just kinda died. And facebook wasn’t unique in this, google killed their s2s support around the time they transitioned to hangouts as well. Fact is facebook probably still runs one of the largest ejabberd instances (but I’m not certain what runs WhatsApp these days actually).
Yes it surely is ordered by priority.
> You go to the doctor from time to time to take care of your physical health, why shouldn't you go to a therapist from time to time to take care of your mental health?

You don't "go to the doctor from time to time", unless you're in some dysfunctional medical system where doctors can make more money by doing unnecessary work. You go to the doctor when you have a problem. You don't see a doctor regularly unless you've got something wrong with you (including old age, but old age life is not exactly healthy - it just beats the alternative), and if a lot of people in a certain environment are going to the doctor regularly then there's something wrong with that environment.

The Middle English word was "mannen" and in old english "mann" meant roughly the same as we mean with "human" now, i.e. without respect to sex.

I don't think the paragraph will be looked back on as anything except a sign of troubled political times (rather than communicating anything of use with regards to the information in the article) but what you've written is incorrect.

Oh man, the soldering job on this _hurts_ me, and I've done a lot of hand-soldered 0201/QFN stuff.

If you're reading this, _never_ thin out your solder paste with flux. You're better off dabbing tiny bits of it onto the individual pads with a toothpick than letting it ooze everywhere and get under your components causing shorts.

If I were soldering this board by hand without a stencil, I'd use solder paste and hot air reflow only on the ground pads of the CPU, the PMIC, and maybe the inductors next to the PMIC. Everything else I would be able to do faster by flooding the board with paste flux and drag-soldering all the pads with a solder-wetted hoof tip (There are some great videos on Youtube for professional drag-soldering).

And when you're done, scrub with a toothbrush and distilled water, rinse in more distilled water, soak in a small puddle of denatured alcohol for a few minutes, then dry with gentle hot air.
> If I correctly get your point, the whole UL/UR system will need to be revised to adapt to more consumers directly buying replacement parts, as they'll expand beyond the nerds following iFixit tutorials.

No, the underwriting and test labs system will not be "updated". User serviceable parts/devices would need significant structural changes to pass testing.

The whole point of testing labs is to give a liability sign-off for manufacturers. A UL listing just says "this particular product built to X specifications did not immediately explode, catch fire, or kill anyone during our testing". It means that design isn't immediately dangerous under normal use co dictions. The UR listing is really just a claim that the component can sit in its packaging in a warehouse (in normal conditions) and not explode, catch fire, and is unlikely to immediately kill someone before it's sent to be assembled into a UL listed device.

If a manufacturer is selling to consumers no retailer, wholeseller, warehouse, or shipping company will touch electronics without some sort of test lab underwriting. In order for batteries to get that underwriting they need to survive physical abuse tests that will cause most LiPoly batteries to explode or catch fire. Look up LiPoly battery fires on YouTube. It's common to use naked batteries with no protective cases in hobby projects.

In order to make LiPoly batteries that will pass those underwriting tests they will need outer impact and puncture resistant casings. For any given envelope for a battery the protective casing will eat into the battery's capacity. Depending on the material and envelope the casing could be up to 50% of the battery's volume.

Internal layouts for some phones would be untenable if the batteries were user serviceable and required a protective shell. The L-shaped batteries in phones like the iPhone XS would be an impractical shape.

The difference between a high capacity battery and bomb is really only the discharge speed. Lithium is incredibly reactive with oxygen. The only reason they're relatively safe to keep in your pocket is they're wrapped in a sturdy aluminum shell.
The fact that the fediverse crowd see nothing wrong with naming a social network "Mastodon" implies "NERRRDS" without having to even mention it.

Btw, I say this as a nerd & tech guy that hates ad-supported social media and wishes for a better alternative, but the current iteration "fediverse" is not it, for many different reasons besides branding which I've written about previously: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...
You’re kind of suggesting that most people understand this issue and still don’t care about it. I suspect that’s very much not the case.

Like with leaded gasoline, a lack of major public outcry does not imply there’s no need for government regulation.
My point was that in our real world, where everything already tracks me, who cares?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came_...

Also even if tracking you is of no special interest to anyone and you personally do not mind there will still be people who affect you where those things will certainly not be true. You have elected representatives with the power to make laws that can profoundly affect you. There are professionals like doctors and engineers and law enforcement officers whose professional conduct and judgement are matters of public safety. There are investigative journalists who provide important checks on the power of others in our society. There are whistleblowers who might become vital sources for any of the above to do their work based on good information. None of these people should be subject to inappropriate influence and any intrusion into their privacy compromises that.
OT: If anyone here is up on Mexican folklore, I've got a question about "Coco" and "The Book of Life". They both are built around the Day of the Dead holiday, so of course are going to have certain similarities.

The stories they tell though are massively different, and they have quite different takes on what the land of the dead is like. For the most part the similarities are mostly what naturally comes from focusing on the same holiday.

Except for one. Both of them feature a boy who wants to be a musician but grows up in a family that has a traditional family business and strongly disapproves of their kids becoming musicians.

I'm wondering if that was just a coincidence, or if "kids wants to be musician, family disapproves" is a theme from Mexican folklore or something like that that both films happened to use.

The correlation between Y chromosomes and sexual characteristics wasn't discovered until the early 20th century, so no. For the vast majority of human existence, the term "Men" has been used without reference to any underlying genetic status.
