His brother briefly worked at Jane Street. Right out of college he made $300k, next year $600k - his bosses liked his perf and said he'd be on track to make $5-7M per year if he stayed on for another 2-4 years.

Well, in 1970 you could only do about 10 a day, because you needed to type a cover letter with the hiring manager's name in it. Job search (newspaper "help wanted" ads), envelope stuffing, trips to the post office and so on took time too.

Photocopies were low quality and looked obvious and got you into the trash straight away.

Actual title of the study: The Impact of Working from Home on Mental Health: A Cross-Sectional Study of Canadian Worker’s Mental Health during the Third Wave of the COVID-19 Pandemic

I wonder if there could be any possible confounding factors in this study?

I have made it a habit of disregarding any sociology or psychology studies done during the COVID pandemic as there were massive confounding factors across all of society for many people, and in my mind leads to it being anything but representative for many people. Science is about finding truth, we need to make sure we are putting sand in the corridor if we really want to have valid information.[1]

I agree that enforcing strict purity in Leporello.js might limit its adoption among developers who prefer a more flexible approach. However, this initial focus on a pure functional subset allowed me to concentrate on the core idea – reimagining developer tools for functional programming from the ground up.

Exploring the development of a two-mode debugger that can seamlessly switch between traditional imperative debugging and Leporello.js-style debugging for pure functions in modern multiparadigm languages is indeed an intriguing research avenue.

NYC is a sanctuary city. Its mayor, Eric Adams, said the migrant crisis "will destroy New York City" -> https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/07/nyregion/adams-migrants-d...

Is Eric Adams also a fascist? Or could there really be a crisis that has nothing to do with whether you like or hate immigrants? Maybe cities are not equipped to handle millions of people in need, year after year... cities can't even house homeless citizens! I'm just saying the root of the problem is not being discussed, and instead strawman arguments are constructed like in the article, making it seem like people just hate immigrants (when at this point a good portion if not most of Americans have some immigrant background).

Interesting. I always had in back of my mind this notion that I ought to check bazel one of these days. So, one of these days is then today. In order to install bazel, recommended way seems to be to install bazelisk first and just rename that to bazel and move it somewhere on the path like /usr/local/bin/bazel.. fine. Now when I run query it warned me about JDK.. huh. Now when I run build it errored and failed due to missing JAVA with "WARNING: Ignoring JAVA_HOME, because it must point to a JDK, not a JRE.". Ok, I'm not using Java - let's check which Java JDK/JRE to use these days and after few minutes of googling I'm not up for it anymore and that, ladies and gentlemen, is where this day is then up for another day after all. Pathetic how cargo and even npm/yarm spoiled us.

>So that other DHT implementations can exist and potentially replace the existing one.

What's wrong with e.g. "The IPFS DHT was using Kademlia and is now using Coral"?

The result is that there are now more names for the same thing, and the old names have changed. This is more confusing, not less. Ditto for "IPFS" and "Foo's IPFS implementation".
To each their own. Personally, I like being able to work and live where I choose and not be tied to a specific location due to availability of jobs. And I'm still able to shut down my laptop at the end of the day and ignore work until the next workday. My employer has "colonized" maybe 25sq ft of my home and I'm ok with that.

And I didn't need to beg anyone to please please please let me use the thing I bought.
I really wish we could convince the anti-trust efforts to focus on search quality over competition—it's a lot more relevant to google's actual harm than comparison to competitors, especially when the competitors are guilty of much of the same harmful behavior. There are good parallels in abuse of this power in the app stores offered by the cell phone manufacturers.

> you say "green bubbles" and turn up your nose.

I'm not doing it, I'm saying that the crowd that cares about iPhone brand image, cares about iPhone brand image.

> You're dangerously close to an admission that "the iPhone crowd" wants the logo as a status symbol and excluding underprivileged aspirants by increasing the cost of entry is the point.

I don't know why you think I would pretend otherwise. Apple's brand image is as a premium product, and Apple has been openly hostile to unauthorized repair for the stated reason that many aftermarket parts are of lower quality than OEM parts. Apple obviously doesn't want low quality refurbs floating around and diluting their brand image.

e.g.: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210323

This feels short on facts high on opinion (almost like the WSJ has some pre-aproved narative!). I can't speak to the other pieces mentioned but I think it's worth noting that Brown's claims about a 'prefered narative' in Nature are rather undermined by some of the peer reviewers comments which encouraged him to broaden the scope of the research in precisely the way he claimed that Nature tacitly discourages.

Ok, I have to push back again. Having known many sex workers, while it is certainly an income option of last resort for many people, it is not always. I know some people who are very established in their careers and there is nothing desperate about it (even if the origin of the career path in some cases was). And others, like dominatrixes, often train specifically and purposefully to purse a career in sex work that they enjoy. There's a million variations, but this knee-jerk "all sex workers are desperate" nonsense is starting to sound really antiquated and ill-informed. And rude.
You call it 'cosmic good', but there's nothing cosmic about it, the victims are often right there in court, and it isn't exactly justice if all they get for the suffering that was inflicted on them is to get to see their offender get some therapy and let out to live his life.

Eg, a rape victim is likely going to have at least mental scars for much of the rest of their life, there's nothing cosmic about the rapist having to suffer for at least a comparable length of time for inflicting that on the victim.

>> In instances where competitors didn’t raise their prices to Amazon’s level, the algorithm—which is no longer in use—automatically returned the item to its normal price point.

This is a form of automated collusion. I'll raise my price and if my competitors don't follow suit I will lower it again. It only works well for them if the competitors are watching prices too and looking for an opportunity to raise theirs. You know it's anti-consumer because of the conditional reversion after watching competitors prices not following.

I have a feeling there is currently a LOT of this going on across all industries in the US. We've seen it rent pricing software, now Amazon, and I think fast food and restaurants are dojng something similar. Food has gotten obscenely expensive expensive outside a grocery store.
> Very legitimate.

Very legitimate at what? It's the characterization of the values nerve I don't believe our media providers have the means to evaluate. The parallel with serotonin is that the coverage has led many people think it's the "chemical that I get depressed when I don't have", which is an absurdly poor understanding of it.
> For the first 3 years of WW2 USSR was an ally of nazis.

This sounds inaccurate or at best an oversimplification of the complicated pre-WW2 treaties flying all over europe. I only see this idea in reference to the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, but that only lasted 2 years and was a non-aggression pact, not an alliance. But maybe you are talking about a different agreement?

I think it is better to buy a 500 dollar phone with replaceable parts than a sub 100 that either does not function well from start or starts to deteriorate (typically less quality and glued battery or under dimensioned charger) within a year.

It does not need to be a 1000 dollar iphone to consist of quality parts. We can wait for 5G to become main stream before requiring it.

The reason why metros on tires is a thing is that they used to have much better acceleration/breaking characteristics than rails, which is good for metros since you can cram more trains in the same lines this way.

I said “used to” because, from what I understood, the development of ABS made breaking characteristics of traditional trains much better than before, which reduces the improvement you get with tires.

(Don't quote me on that though, I got this from a coffee machine discussion with a former metro driver when I was working for RATP 10 years ago so my memory may not be 100% accurate at this point)
I think in most cases, back when I worked there, I would have instead searched the monorepo for targets that depended on this library (an easy lookup), and look at how they used it.

I also don't think 2.5 minutes is unreasonably long or much of a barrier. After spending an hour looking for relevant postings at companies I'm interested in, another few minutes to actually apply is not a big deal.

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining!
From the Ars version [1] of this article:

> For suicides, white children accounted for 78 percent of the deaths.

I see a lot of attention nationally about the other alarming stats in this article, but almost never hear anything about the astronomical suicide rate among white children. It may be time to have a national conversation about how and why we're teaching these kids to hate themselves in such large numbers.

I read at the link that yt-dl uses ffmpeg and doesn't endorse avconv. Just curious if this is the place to ask, Does anyone know what the differences are between avconv and ffmpeg? Do they still basically do the same thing, or is there any reason to use one over the other. I remember years ago reading that one was a fork due to a disagreement or something, but I don't know how things have come along currently. I've mostly exclusively used ffmpeg any time I needed to convert a video, or more commonly for my use case, converted a directory full of images to a video.
To repeat what the EFF had to say about those laws:

> Although [transparency] legal mandates might be appropriate as part of a carefully crafted legislative scheme, H.B. 20 is not the result of a reasonable policy debate. Rather it is a retaliatory law aimed at violating the First Amendment rights of online services in a way that will ultimately harm all internet users.

I work most days in the office. By choice. That is the important part.

I have the flexibility to work wherever I want, no questions asked, no one keeping track. All asked, is that I get shit done and show up to our very infrequent in-person meetings.

Although I am quite introvert, I work in the office because I enjoy and need the social interaction.

Ultimately, what matters to me is not whether fully remote, hybrid or in-office is optimal. What matters is the freedom to choose what fits best with my personal life.
Agreed. I am happy fully remote but I am also happy when I meet my coworkers in person from time to time. I wouldn’t mind going to the office maybe once a week and I think it would be beneficial.

I find it interesting that we always frame it as if we all perceive it in the same way.

I find in person to be draining, so the opposite of you.

I guess this is the core of the difficulty. Not everyone feels the same but very often we’re forced into someone else's ideal.

I agree with your main point - hybrid isn’t great when it is too prescriptive. Works well enough if each team is given the flexibility and latitude to decide what works best.
They take a process a small team could complete quickly with high quality and low cost maintenance and turn it into a process a huge team completes slowly with poor quality and high maintenance cost. Google can afford this because of huge profits from their advertising monopoly that they don’t know how to spend.

Go look at the manuals for IBM's Parallel Sysplex for mainframes and compare the simplicity of that to K8S for instance.

Or for that matter look at DCOM and the family of systems which Microsoft built around it which are truly atrocious but look like a model of simplicity compared to gRPC. (At least Don Box wrote a really great book about COM that showed people in the Microsoftsphere how to write good documentation.)

Or for that matter try doing something with AWS, Azure or some off-brand cloud and Google Cloud from zero (no account) and time yourself with a stopwatch. Well, it will be a stopwatch for AWS but you will probably need a calendar for Google Cloud.
In regards to Trump University, I think it was technically settled [1]. I think in that particular case, people argue he had plausible deniability because it was just a bad branding deal, and that he wasn't directly involved in anything crooked. I don't remember the outcome the Donald J Trump foundation embezzlement scandal from a few years ago, but I'm sure his followers would just say NYC is a crooked liberal state and it was rigged against him anyway. In fact, because it's rigged against him, that's why he needs donations!

Just to be clear, I think he's a moron and a fraudster; even if you could prove that Trump University and the Donald J Trump Foundation and the hoarding of classified documents and the collusion with Russia was all hogwash, the fact that he didn't divest himself from his businesses after assuming power should be a bright red flag to people.

Having access to a gun increases your chance of successfully completing suicide by almost an order of magnitude. This may not be exact numbers, but to first order, attempting suicide with methods other than guns have about a 10% success rate. Attempting suicide with a gun has a success rate closer to 90%.

We can council and support survivors of suicide attempts. We cannot bring a corpse back.
I still think the biggest problem with IPFS is that they put every block of every file in the DHT. It's just insane compared to BitTorrent, which only puts the top level torrent info in the DHT.

Having the option to pin just one file is useful, but they could greatly reduce DHT traffic if they didn't need to allow access to arbitrary resources without starting at some parent block.

BitTorrent requires you access files via a collection, and only the collections are stored in the DHT, and the bandwidth use when idle is single digit kb.

I think BitTorrent itself could be extended to cover most IPFS use cases, possibly better than IPFS itself, although IPFSes database-like stuff is pretty unique.
I'm cautious with Asianometry. I watched some about a year ago and he wasn't completely accurate. I don't remember which videos now, but letting people know they should consume more than just Asianometry to corroborate facts.
