Im jealous of anyone who can sleep well. I have been doing all of the above for years as well as testing out different temperatures and also not looking at screens for well over an hour before going to bed.

I just can’t get good consistent deep sleep. I will say one thing that did help was i use to live in the city and after i moved outside of it and it was much much quieter at night (no trucks driving through or random sounds or honking in the middle of the night) i did notice an improvement.
>Your commit message should have a short title explaining the change and the body should go into as much detail as necessary into why the change took place, I can see the what from looking at the diff.

That sounds tedious like commenting every line of code. You might have to do this if the code is hard to read and maintain though. Most of the time the why is "because feature X demands that it change".

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer squashed merges because lots of small commits are also annoying to switch between and if I'm diving into git history, I'm investigating and have some extra time to understand everything instead of relying on commit messages.
If Steve Jobs had sold paint.
Knuth attributes it to Hoare, and Hoare attributes it to Knuth. So it come's down to who you want to believe. Probably best to attribute it to both. My guess would be that Tony said it first, Knuth refined and printed it.

It's always good to have the longer quote which gives needed context.

I homeschooled my kid. We moved from a strong Bay Area CA school district to a pretty bad one. But also, our experience of school districts, and classrooms, were pretty incompatible with the kid we were raising.

The first few (!) years were quite difficult. We didn’t seek out any homeschool group support but we did study about home schooling.

We ended up devising our own curriculum and our kid, eventually, and to some degree ..on his own, became a diligent student. Just learning how to do “school work” was a real hurdle.

The biggest outcome that requires reconsideration is that he was pretty invisible when he applied to colleges. Our demographic qualifications didn’t help. So we’re paying cash for college. He did take some community college classes during the time that would’ve been his last two years of high school.

He really liked community college. He thrived. The local (well regarded) university is an educational black box, offering little support or contact with administrators or educators. Office hours are never kept and often cancelled, for instance. Assignments aren’t managed properly in online systems and teachers can’t be reached by the deadline (it’s almost like a Google support situation — impervious and well guarded).

Still, he found a research position and got offered a job and works with an interesting and accessible professor. Socially, his university isn’t a match. He’s not that interested in college life, and I can’t find a wedge in to encourage him. He’s in a STEM field, so everyone’s pretty anti-social.

So, we’re that kind of homeschool tribe. He turned out fine. He’s very happy that he was homeschooled. Honestly, if I hadn’t been divorced (amicably) and if she hadn’t been anchored here, I would’ve seriously considered moving to another country for his education. It’s what he and I are discussing for his grad school interests. We’re both making lists of places overseas (where we’ve been expats at various times).
I'm not a fan of leetcode, but when I did some competitive programming it was quite common that you first had to transform the input data into the proper data structure, and then you can apply some algorithm to produce the answer.
Well I don't think that qualifies as good. But if we make cancer easier to treat because of my DNA then I'm happy for it to be used.
Damn, I hope nobody ever clones me like that.

Not much of a song but the beats are right on.
I wouldn't call that home schooling. That's more like a co-op model. They probably used professionally drafted curricula too.
Yeah, that can be tough if it's coming from above and you need the paycheck.
Thank you! (I should have been able to get there on my own but, for whatever reason, I obviously didn't.)
I would say that a lack of ethics has more financial upside
Too bad the ppa doesn't seem to work on Debian proper. Yesterday I configured a new laptop with Debian Bookworm but I don't want Firefox ESR, I want the latest stable. Snap sucks, the Flatpak version has some limitations that the real version doesn't, I don't want to run a mixed stable/sid distro and the only 3rd party repository I found was hosted on sourceforge, which I just plain don't trust. So it's 2023 and I'm still stuck manually downloading and unpacking .tar.bz2 files into /opt every other week.
How would one lose access? Is Youtube blocking IP addresses? Fingerprinting browsers in a way that Firefox's ResistFingerprinting setting doesn't handle?
Curious to see how Clearbit will be integrated into HubSpot and if the Clearbit API will remain open for others to use. Are there any other viable competitors to Clearbit for coverage and quality? We have a legacy plan for my startup at a very good price, so I've never checked out the other options.
Where is the source code that was used to build this? Why is the app still only hosted on archive.org?
Yes, DT is mainly meant to describe non-discoverable hw blocks inside the SoC and the chips soldered to the motherboard. Discoverable devices like PCIE cards or USB devices aren't added to DT (except under very rare circumstances)

Nowadays there is also an overlay mechanism that is used for example on the Raspberry Pi expansion hats, so DT is not always limited to soldered-on things.
Because the effect doesn't really become significant until middle-age, and while the slope rises fast from there, it was always understood to be something that all but the oldest of immune systems could handle.

The shutdown was initially to protect health services from becoming overwhelmed. Although it was later re-interpreted as you suggest, that was never a purpose grounded in either good science or evidence.

Although it would have been hard to protect the virus from spreading to the middle aged, we could very easily have limited its spread amongst the oldest and most vulnerable. The size of the group is much smaller, and it would have been easier. "All" it needed was for people to focus their protection efforts. As it was, we tried to protect everyone. It was a waste of resources, and far worse than that, it failed to provide substantial protection to anyone.
I don't remember the beginnings of such stickers, but it had something to do with the litter produced by the unwanted mail. We have to pay for our litter here. And no one wants to pay for others :)

Just like the same reason for you can get fined for throwing away litter. If it's not your litter box.. :)

I wish that the free willy said "I don't want" is binding for all people over the world.
> I’ve never heard of anyone on their deathbed wishing they’d spent less time with family and friends, and more time grinding away at work

Sampling bias? Those wishing to have spent more time with family & friends likely have family & friends to posthumously share their deathbed story.
Webapps like Salesforce, Gmail, Slack, Google Docs drink resources. They occasionally get stuck pegging an entire core indefinitely. Also Microsoft Teams.

When line of business apps like email use 1GB of memory each you need a faster machine than if you use mutt.

>Which is why all the LeetCode interviews always struck me as odd. They focus on algorithms, not data structures,

The typical leetcode questions also focus on "data structures" because the candidate needs to have the mental catalog of data structures in his brain to pull from when he "pattern matches" on the problem/solution.

The interviewer isn't going to volunteer whether the candidate needs a "priority queue", or "adjacency matrix", or "trie", etc to solve various algorithm questions. If the candidate is stuck, then the interviewer might give a hint to the data structure to use. But of course, too much hand-holding will not make the candidate come across as a strong hire signal.

That should make South Korea feel better, right? Or is there suspicion that the Norks feel they have replaced their artillery threat with something more effective, rendering those shells surplus?

You don't need spyware just to improve a product. Dev teams were able to produce great software before we were constantly online.

If a team is so unfamiliar with their product and customer base that it cannot take action without telemetry, maybe they're not the right team to make that product. Statistics are not a substitute for domain knowledge.
You pay for the convenience.
The original was published by Random House in 1972; mine is a 25th anniversary copy published by Vintage in 1997.

The one you link to, published by Penguin - Random House in 2011, says "Jane English and her long-time editor, Toinette Lippe, have refreshed and revised the translation" and that it "features over a hundred new photographs by Jane English", so seems like it might be a 2.0 version. I'm sure it's beautiful and inspiring as well, but I've only personally read the original version.
This has led to is a rise in PAs and ARNPs for primary care, and scary things like CRNAs asking MDs for sign offs without a supervising anesthesiologist.
You're misreading my statement. My point is that they didn't do interviews. They just gave everyone absolutely crap offers, without actually interviewing or evaluating individuals. Hiring people with 0 interviews just because they worked for the purchased company is exactly what happened, and they did it in such a way that people were grossly under leveled.

His paragraph on git was a bit muddled because every goal he had for doing git as he says is achievable without following his rules. Arguably, squashing on merging and one commit per PR enhance readability and the comprehensibility of the history. The counterargument might be that a single commit can be too large and contain too many logical changes to digest, but in that case the merge commit of 100 commits of a feature branch will still be huge (or you’ll have 100 commits from the branch on main if you rebase). Either way, bisect still works as expected.

Putting all the info in the git commit message is a hopeless cause, I think. Even if the message is relatively fulsome, there’s still the context of the change to be found in the JIRA ticket or the Confluence page, and you either leave that out to avoid dead links, in which case context is lost, or you include links that eventually get stale and die. I don’t know of a good solution to this except the fact that large enterprises often have dinosaur systems that are like ancient Mesopotamian pyramids, full of secrets from the past. Honeywell suffered some breaches a couple years ago that necessitated rebuilding a large number of systems, and when they got around to the ClearCase systems still in use by some teams, no one had the intestinal fortitude, let alone the knowledge, to rebuild them.

That said, I can’t remember ever seriously digging into the history of a repo to find who implemented something or how it changed to become what it is currently. I’ve worked on very large repos and implemented significant, wide-ranging functionality, and historical exploration never helped me understand the current code or the overall design—if I didn’t have architecture docs I read the code and made my own (in which case I’d rather the effort of a commit message was put into docstrings instead), which did far more to help me grasp a codebase than scrolling through git log.

So if I would add one thing to his essay, it would be this: find some undocumented code as document it as you would like it to be. Reading code is an underappreciated skill in our field.
IMO I care much more about contacts changing jobs, getting laid off, and talking about their side projects than anything else.

I probably should see if someone has a linkedin script to remove non-1st connection content.
WER is a pretty strict metric. IIRC it can penalize missing repeats, disfluencies, and the like that an ASR model may reasonably decide to drop. Additionally it will penalize for incorrect pluralization, unique proper nouns that aren't in the model, etc. 10% is still very readable.

I built a tool in the mid-201Xs on an ASR engine with 20%+ WER, and even that was good enough for what we were trying to do.
As if the average manager can reliably tell the difference.

I will back up here a bit as my first claim came off as a bit confrontational. However, I find it a bit unrealistic to expect an environment where you have founders that are very compassionate and calm. The very nature of building a business is a maddening task. Which is something we seem to forget.

Most level-headed people would never do it. The very idea of starting something that has a very minimal chance of success isn’t rational. Therefore I do find the traits you describe at somewhat of a contradiction.

Many of the most known innovators and leaders are often described as intense, driven, and even obsessive. Their willingness to defy convention, take significant risks and challenge the status-quo can be seen as crazy.

I suppose I’ve seen the other side of this coin, in small companies where everything is ”too much of a risk” if it cannot generate a good cash flow within a few months. This is a very level-headed approach. I’ve also seen them miss some great opportunities because of it. Nevertheless, they are still operating and probably will be for a long time. However, I'm uncertain that they have enough energy and will power to "change" the world.

Now, I'm not saying that a small company with calm level-headed leaders are a bad thing. But I don’t believe that there aren’t trade-offs. Both have their pros and cons.
The issue is not, as you call it, refusing to learn new things. The issue is that it's relatively hard to find solutions for your problem rather than the very biggest and most complex problem -- in other words, trying to find something to kill a housefly with and only being offered field artillery.

The benefits of Cloudflare pages that you describe are certainly very real, but for a static site consisting of a couple of files that's built by a reasonably experienced person and that will receive essentially no ongoing changes, they're not needed -- so all the extra complexity of CF pages is unjustified. If I were building a reasonably high-traffic commercial site with a JS framework, a backend, user accounts, and so on, I'm sure I would be genuinely grateful for CF Pages' features, but I just need to kill a housefly and I don't want to spend time wheeling field artillery into position.

There's a bit of a curve there. You may invest in a school for many community reasons if the school is near the same quality as the other option. If the quality is way below then the logic of family protection basically demands a move.
> Now, imagine that once prospects’ and customers’ data are in HubSpot, our platform actively monitors those customers for buying intents. Not just based on direct engagements within the HubSpot platform, but also based on customers’ activities outside of HubSpot and around the web. And, when it’s time to reach out, imagine using generative A.I. powered by all of this rich data to create personal messages. That will be possible with Clearbit and HubSpot.

I have a feeling this will be very successful - but could they do this for B2B?
Thanks, I didn't expect an entire design review, . A simple "I don't like the way the design looks, so I won't consider using the software" is plenty of feedback to know where you are coming from. I did not know if it was something with the wording, something with the project, etc. I appreciate your reply.
The good thing about science, tho, is it's open to learning what the answers are, rather than presuming them.
You’re 180 degrees backwards.

Copyright infringement requires copying.

Patent infringement does not require copying.

There's a famous case on this exact issue.

Atari Games Corp. v. Nintendo of America Inc. 975 F.2d 832 (Fed. Cir. 1992)

"Nintendo can show copying by proving that Atari made literal copies of the NES program. Alternatively, Nintendo can show copying by proving that Atari had access to the NES program and that Atari's work — the Rabbit program — is substantially similar to Nintendo's work in ideas and the expression of those ideas."

You can create a self-signed CA in cert-manager directly already, which has the advantage that the private key never leaves your infrastructure, you don't need to create a login account on some external service to do it, it will work fine behind an airgap, and you can use your existing DNS domain instead of having to use Anchor's "lcl.host" which seemingly requires all of your queries to resolve "private" URLs now have to go to public DNS servers.

My understanding is that at least at one point in the past the AMA lobbied either for the cap or to not fix the problem. Also inversely speaking, you don't really hear much about the AMA lobbying to -fix- the problem and given the frequency of this theory, you would think they would publicise it more.

There is also the weird thing where, my understanding is that the hospitals can 'sell' the slots to each other and strangely they can fetch more than the funding in question.

But really, so much of the medical residency industrial complex reminds me of a hazing ritual in and of itself.
Pricing is missing.
Residency funding, and the fact that even fully trained foreign doctors have to redo residency to practice here.

An American can marry a foreign doctor with 10 years experience, get their spouse a green card and everything, and they still can't work as a doctor without redoing residency like a fresh graduate.
My additional rule: tiny bits of wasted perf will accumulate and eventually make the program slow even though each one doesn't cost much. So don't leave perf on the table so long as complexity/readability/maintainability/implementation cost isn't affected. That is: all else being mostly equal, it's not OK to choose the slower of two options.

Also: if you assume your N's are small then you can get away with almost anything. But if you write a piece of code that is going to work well for N below 100, but suck for N over 10000 Say, anything with O(N^2), then just cap it. Make a big fat error if the small N assumption breaks. It's still better than the AWS bill surprise or hung program or whatever it could be otherwise.
Any suggestions for recommended reading for someone in their mid-30s, really only focused on 401k for retirement? Should I be doing something else?
For every one of your wife there's another who did just fine. Given that the majority of universities up until just recently were religious, I find it difficult to understand your conflation of religion with ignorance. Are there extremists? Of course... but overall, the idea that just because something is religious it's less educational is... bad. I mean, before public schools in America (and still in Canada), Catholic parochial schooling was the largest school system, and still is the largest private one.

I think you are misinterpreting the highway scene, but yeah I have always enjoyed the way that both public and private spaces are portrayed in the film. Other good examples include sam's tiny car (Messerschmitt KR200!) and his tiny office with the half-desk. Somehow I wonder if they were making the film today, would Sam live in a tiny apartment too?
I echo this sentiment.

I'm not sure a managed service is interesting. The target audience probably mainly wants it fully self-hosted. From quickly skimming the frontpage, quickstart, and terminology it's not at all clear why I need to / want to make an account in order to run / use this service.
It does not. At least not in such absolute terms.

Some science is wrong, but not science in itself.

And mate, you don't need to go into religion or anything to find out that governments willingly lie to you. Also scientists, plenty of times, willingly or not.

Hi, author here. I've also done the self-signed cert in dev thing a bunch of times, and never really feel like it provides solid dev/prod parity for TLS in staging & production. And most certificate management products don't work well in development. One of our goals is to make certificate provisioning the same for all environments (including development), so that you can be confident that encryption that works in local development will work the same in staging & production.
