I’m starting to feel the same way. React’s big selling point when it came out was that it was “easy to reason about”, and that was true at the time. With hooks, server components, and 10,000 different strategies for managing state and side effects, I can’t say React is easy to reason about anymore. We can do things now that were impossible back then, but now we need to do even more than that, and it feels like it’s time to take a step back and do something different. I don’t know what that is yet.
As a Canadian, currently stuck in the US immigration process, I chuckle at this remark.

Also I-485's i.e. Green Cards, Permanent Residence status, in the US are based on where you are BORN not which citizenship(s) you have.

Why bake libtransmission into the app instead of just using the transmission daemon's RPC?

What you've done actually makes it harder to use, because in order to configure any of transmission's settings (ports, connection/torrent connection limits, bandwith limits, etc) the user needs to dig around to find the transmission config folder and then manually edit JSON with a text editor - because your client doesn't expose any of transmissions numerous settings [1] to the user except for choosing the download folder.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to use this instead of Flood [2] or even old Transmission Web Control [3]

> "Military target" is a curious phrase given that this seems to be civilian infrastructure (of course it's probably important for the military as well). Pre-war, looks like the bridge saw around 15k in daily traffic. https://www.zr.ru/content/news/920305-8-millionov-avtomobili...

It’s a valid military target because Russia uses it to resupply its military in Crimea.

If Russia doesn’t want people targeting their bridges as military targets perhaps the military shouldn’t use them.

> So the real question is, why is Ukraine attacking civilian infrastructure?

Because it’s a military target being used by the Russian military to resupply Crimea and also the forces in the land corridor nearby.

> Is that not terrorism?.

Nope

> And an even better question is, why is the West helping them do this?

Because kicking Russia out of Crimea is something that needs to happen.

> Discovered in 2018, PSR J0026–1955 is a Galactic pulsar with a spin period of approximately 1.306 seconds and dispersion measure of 20.81 pc/cm3. It has a spin-down luminosity of 23 nonillion erg/s, surface magnetic field strength of 770 billion Gauss, and its characteristic age is estimated to be some 47 million years.

Fascinating.

I have no idea what any of those words mean.

This is my take too. The strictness of the tenant rent requirements seem like a "bug" in the lease agreement.

In a situation like this where there's a massive downturn in office rental value and not much expectation it'll lift any time soon, it seems in both parties benefit by allowing lower rents. Locking commercial tenants in 5-10 year leases at current market rates will probably mean the building owner defaults on their debt, but that seems inevitable.
I think most people on vacation would rather not cook, and therefore don't value kitchens. There are some long-stay brands that cater to people who want kitchens but that doesn't seem to be the mid/high-end leisure travel market.

Toilet brush, I mean, they have people who will clean the toilet daily. Not a perfect substitute I agree, but also not something I've ever really thought about.

[edited to add] > Isn't the reason Airbnb bookings are down because interest rates are sky-high worldwide to combat inflation? Travel, in general, should be down if the reserved banks worldwide are doing their job.

Other way around. Prices are high because a lot of people are traveling, which is being folded into inflation numbers. Prices are high because demand is high relative to supply, for lots of things, but especially for travel where the market is still riding the post-pandemic rebound.

You are right that reserve banks are hoping to reduce demand for things like travel, but that will yield lower prices. Consensus is that rates at current levels are not doing that yet, and I think in past recessions, layoffs led demand drops.

Note also that Airbnb bookings are down but hotel occupancy is right below its 2019 peak. [1]

So instagram has access to view, collect, and analyze the photos you take of yourself and your environment as well as the ability to access your other photos, your location and your microphone. That alone could let them collect vast amounts of information about your health and your finances.

Your location data for example tells them where you live. Possibly the single best predictor of how long you'll live is your zip code. Your health could be readily apparent from your location and your physical appearance (insta knows what you look like before filters too).

It can give them a huge amount of data concerning your finances as well. The location and info gathered from photos you take of your food and drinks in expensive restaurants or on vacation for example. The person who spends 40 hours a week in a server room is probably making more money than someone who spends 35 hours a week at a McDonalds.

Your location data can be used to show things like how many sexual partners you have, how many friends you have, if you have parents that are still alive, how often you visit the dentist.

If IOS is like Android there will be a lot of sensor data that is freely handed out to any app that is curious without a permission or a prompt. Thinks like if your phone is upright or flat. The magnetic fields around you. etc. All of that data can also be leveraged to learn the most intimate details of you and your life.

When you start thinking about how much you reveal about yourself from nothing but a bunch of seemingly random data points it can really surprise you.
How would it even be possible to verify that?

I'd estimate that most people in the tech pipeline intend that. TN status is a lot easier to get and tech salaries are much higher in America.
It made no sense for how that could work that I could imagine, but it would be holycrapthatscool if it could. some sort of second JIT or something, but i can only imagine the security nightmare that'd open up
The different frequency (field/frame rate) should be taken care of by having switched to the other crystal, the different resolution remains relevant. Not just that, there's also less time to perform computations while in vertical sync in NTSC compared to PAL. (Both those things are also related to the frequency of the crystal, by the way.)

But: Since the game originated in Japan, it was probably originally written for NTSC(-J) anyway, so my guess is that it makes use of neither the increased PAL resolution, nor the additional computation time.
Not sure, this was like 10 years ago at this point and I didn't really pay attention to these details at that time.
> In addition, some employees will have no root access, meaning they won’t be able to run administrative commands or do things like install software.

Yes but the goal is not to move to the US permanently, it is to make a ton of money here and then retire in Canada.
GitHub's market share percentage is a multiple of AWS's — and also, GitHub is just the beginning for us!
I elaborated in a sibling comment, but my guess is that, since the game originated in Japan, which also was NTSC land, it was written to also work on NTSC to begin with.
I really don’t have anything against managers having reports write their reviews. I’m just pointing out there’s a fundamental difference between that and a referral letter, specifically on the “doing your job for you” bit people were talking about.

Saying the manager is also doing you a favor is twisting the words a bit. Sure, you can make the point that it’s nice and it benefits you. But it is a routine part of their current job. Lots of cover letters, maybe most, are being asked outside of this context. Maybe the most obvious difference is it’s within your discretion to decide to not give someone a referral. Not really the same with a performance review.

These differences makes an “okay, but write it yourself” situation fundamentally different.
Qualcomm hasn't been able to manufacture desktop-class ARM devices yet (see SQ1 and X13 ARM edition), and the GPU IP doesn't really hold a candle to what else is out there either. They are however using significantly less power than say, x86 SoCs and GPUs from AMD, Intel or Nvidia.

Nvidia on the other hand has plenty of IP for GPUs and AI workloads that is proven to have high performance, even on the Tegra scale of things. The Jetson product line as an example does still outperform whatever Qualcomm has come up so far. But they are consuming more power and don't even come close to the same thermal envelope.

So Nvidia needs to reduce their energy needs, while Qualcomm needs to create actually performant devices for real-time AI workloads. That's why.

Speaking as someone that currently spends ~10% of their days in some kind of short-term housing or another, neither of the things you mentioned are something I care about in a hotel room.

Toilet brush? Maybe I'm a weirdo, but if I see a problem with the toilet, or any other part of the room, I go down to the front desk and smile a nice smile and say, "hey, can you send someone up to sort this out?", and then they do -- for free. I also get infinite towels, a pool (often), a gym (sometimes), access to people who are familiar with the area, no hinky cleaning fees or other surprises on my bill, points and rewards, and a reasonable certainty that there are no hidden cameras in my room and anybody I have to deal with is sane enough most days to keep a job in hospitality.

Aside from people who are traveling in groups of three or more or just have a desire to set some money on fire, I don't understand why people use AirBnBs.
Why do you need a toilet brush for a bathroom that should be cleaned before your arrival?
rich white people introduce these regressive DEI policies so that smart poor and not-connected kids could not compete and enter elite ranks of society, and their (relatively dumb, but rich&well connected) kids could easily outcompete everyone.

1. It is incredibly hard for rich&connected kid to excel among smart & hard-working individuals

2. If barrier is lowered, and overall pool is "diverse" in terms of IQ and ability, then for a rich kid it gets much easier to outcompete and stand out (due to parent's $$$ and connections)

3. The only reason rich white privileged people want regressive DEI is to make it easier for their kids to stand out from competition

How do you handle healthcare and retirement as a contractor? Many contracting shops I see offer very poor benefits. Might be looking at the wrong companies, but it seems like worse compensation than FTE.

Every tech company I've ever worked at, normal devs have had administrator access on their own Mac or Linux workstations, its only usually the sales/product folks who have locked down Windows machines.

I see almost exactly the same patterns with remote work.

Everyone, especially "important people," gradually wander in. This happens even when the meetings are scheduled for 5 after the hour, to try to avoid lollygagging [edit to describe behavior, not people].

There's the small talk. Unlike in-person work, I get weather reports from different places on the planet.

There's always the "can you hear me," "your audio is off," "you're breaking up," and "how do I share this on whatever meeting app we're using" time once we're all there.

An actual meeting often occurs.

We still often run late, just like in-person meetings.

A few people will connect more directly, excluding the rest of the group, often not telling us at all until afterward. They tell everyone it's "more effective," just like in-person work, meaning they didn't want anyone else's input.

This is just what happens with badly-organized (or unorganized) meetings.
Thanks! Yeah I should clarify that these friends I were talking to do the kind of bio / neuroscience where they spend most of their time in a lab running a physical experiment so their skills are focused around that kind of wet work and they interact very little with mathematical folks based on what they implied.

Also, yes, in any field you have people that miss the science for the method. Sometimes that makes sense if their research is on the method and not the application, but the best papers are strong in both.

On point 1, I feel like any kind of statistical cookbook that says “if x do y” will lead to the same problem. Any such recipe will not be able to capture the nuances of problems many scientists face. I’m not sure what the solution is other than some vague “we need better modeling tools” statement that is as wishful as asking people to learn stats better.

On point 2, I also agree that’s an issue. In my field, the “future directions,” section is the first thing you cut down to make a page limit, but it’s really an important section to both discuss what the issues with your idea are and how they can be fixed in the future.
Companies seem to tolerate the 8% of each Teams or zoom meeting lost on “wait, I can’t get my camera working”, “sorry I’m late; what did I miss?”, etc.

I’m convinced it’s a percent or two of GDP!

To me this attitude is common among developers too. If there is a took that will save them 10 hours a week but costs 20 dollars they won't do it. Never met such an insanely cheap group of people.

I am a developer BTW. I love paying for tools or hardware. I don't want to waste money but if something is going to make me faster or better I'm gonna do it.

I once got laughed at by a bunch of my colleagues for paying 400 bucks for intellij. That's like 25 cents an hour for a years work. After 2 years its 12.5 cents

Unfortunately, many social scientists are pushing the idea that students learn better by having far less hours in school. There is also a lot of sketchy science claiming that homework is detrimental.

I think you are correct, but you are pushing against the headwinds of academia.
That seems right. Apple leads out with "We're doing feature X, Y, and Z" and downplays the particular technology behind those features. Nobody really cares if X, Y, and Z are powered by AI, as long as they're awesome.

Contrast that with the rest of the industry who lead out with "We're doing AI!" and then they connect it to this and that feature.

I'd argue that consumers care about having great features, not about what particular technology powers it. My phone could run on unicorn poop, and I don't care as long as it does what I want it to do.
Sweet. I didn't see it when looking initially, appreciate the pointer.

Definitely limited use in scope :) Back to Noto Sans!
> what are you going to do? Full text search?

Actually yes, I often have a grep tab open on the next terminal tab (whereas vim lives in the other one). Granted, I don't use it nearly as often as one would CTRL-B in intellij. grep (and other GNU utilities) is very powerful and can be used for more than just text searches. In fact for even project I develop using intellij I often find myself doing the same grep window in remote just because it's faster and I can make manual edits on the fly.

For navigation, I usually to tabe or vert sb and this allow the other call signature to simply exist on my desktop real estate or a gt away until I don't need it anymore.

You might feel like I'm simply proving your point, and you might just be right. But I do use the same method of editing on larger project outside of personal space, and delivers at speed if not just due to the fact that I need very minimal setup (the context switching is hefty when the package space is littered with various packages and not just a single one that you change all the time). I do use IDE for certain languages (yes, java), but I think it has more to deal with the verbosity and inherited complexity (chicken and egg here) then I would attribute to size alone.

The bottom line is, having been using IDE and not IDE for different projects for a long time, I would default to not using IDE if I could. It's not like I'm pathologically averse to the idea of IDE, in fact I use it daily. I just think not using the IDE has benefits both on speed for certain projects, and clarity and skill growth for others.
If I had two computers I'd consider this. I'd probably want a KVM to swap the keyboard and mouse
It’s about control not productivity.

WFH means an employee can easily interview elsewhere. It is harder to manipulate them into working an unhealthy amount. It is less likely their entire social circle will be at the job which hurts employee retention.

Also you have to manage people based on outcomes which raised the bar for managers. Most managers really aren’t capable and have been mostly coasting on looking busy and watching attendance. That doesn’t work for a remote team.

I have been working remote for almost 7 years now though. I am never working from an office again but hey that’s what works for me.

I agree that collaborating with dedicated statisticians is more feasible. I think part of the challenge might be ingraining in researchers that “stats is both hard and important so you need to take it seriously or find / hire someone who does.” If they don’t appreciate the problem, they won’t seek a better solution.
It rarely is - only 1/4th of homeless adults in LA suffer from a severe mental illness [1].

The sad reality is that the difference between the folks you pass by on the street and you is often just a little bit of bad luck and no support system.

Go listen to interviews with the folks that live in the sewers in Vegas, most of them want to work but can't get a government ID because they've had their old Ids and birth certificates stolen a long time ago.

> key-value pair "key":"value"

This reminds me of when I first started programming professionally. I’d write loops in PHP like

foreach($orders_by_id as $key => $value) {
$id = $key;
$order = $value;
# ...
}

This was at a small logistics company you’ve never heard of (read: not the best development practices) so the habit was eventually caught in a code review and corrected. I must have written a dozen or so of those prior to that.
We can assign monetary value to things and then compare them. Food, for example, has value mostly because of enjoyment, not because we absolutely have to eat (the elasticity of demand for beef is an example of this.) The value of the ecosystems displaced by farming, PV, or other land using activities can also be assigned a monetary value (since it's clearly seen as tradeable against economic benefits.)

Given that, we can ask what's the ratio of the value of the output of a farm to the value of the displaced natural ecosystem, and do the same for PV. And if we do that, we will find the ratio is MUCH higher for PV than it is for farming.

So, if the goal is to maximize utility for a given displacement of natural ecosystems, we come out ahead (on the margin) if we use land for PV instead of farming. If we want to return land to nature at lowest cost we would do that by returning farmland to nature, not PV land.
If u have a ton money, it's cheaper to just live in US. Canada is very expensive for the plebs. The cost of living keeps rising and the politicians are very anti small businesses and pro oligarchy.
