Isn't what you say contradictory?

You are saying that devs need to stay "in the flow". But when you are in the flow and suddenly you have something that blocks you because you have a simple question, the best way to stay in the flow is to ask the question and get the answer immediately. If I have to quit my flow, go on slack, ask on slack, wait 10 minutes, then re-explain because the other person did not get it, then re-wait, ... my flow is ruined.

What you are saying is, at the end of the day, when caricaturing a little bit, that you want your flow to be maintained, but you are happy to destroy the flow of others.
This is also on HN. Same bubble, not much of a coincidence?
Anyone who uses the phrase "we take security seriously" after doing something so basically wrong should go to prison.

These aren't new or advanced or zero-day, they are well-documented types of vulnerabilities that have existed forever. If you are struggling with short text messages then buy a shorter domain name and keep the codes longer and less guessable.
Those things aren't what are meant by "paying for an experience". They're paying for the ingredients and DIY the experience.
switched to using only one large pen drive with all my ISO with ventoy and never looked back. worked well even with windows.

there were some challenges, especiall with UEFI with some devices. but there are workarounds documented in the tool's website. it is like a one-time thing per device, but you do have to trust random keys off the internet.

it is well worth the hassle of extra keystrokes to get to the boot menu. i just wish there was a way to bypass grub menu for every iso where it applies.
> These two types of work were first identified, to my knowledge, by the programmer and essayist Paul Graham.

The identification of flow state in programming was known well before Graham. Steve McConnell's Rapid Development (1996), https://archive.org/details/rapiddevelopment00mcco/page/506/... , has

"Flow time. During the analysis and design stages, software development is an ephemeral, conceptual activity. Like any conceptual activity, the quality of the work is dependent on the worker's ability to sustain a "flow state" — a relaxed state of total immersion in a problem that facilitates understanding of it and the generation of solutions for it (DeMarco and Lister 1987). Converting brain waves to computer software is a delicate process, and developers work best during the hours they spend in this state of effortless concentration. Developers require 15 minutes or more to enter a state of flow, which can then last many hours, until fatigue or interruption terminates it. If developers are interrupted every 11 minutes, they will likely never enter a flow state and will therefore be unlikely to ever reach their highest levels of productivity."

DeMarco and Lister 1987 is "Peopleware: Productive projects and teams". I can't find a first edition but you can read the relevant part of the second edition at https://archive.org/details/peoplewareproduc00dema_0/page/62... .

As I recall, in one of McConnell's books was a chart showing relative performance effectiveness of closed offices vs cubicles vs open floor plans, which got progressively worse. I can't now find that chart though.
That and because people in those countries still value the little things a lot, things we in rich coubtries, unfortunately, take for granted.
Me too. Eventually I gave up and started using RubyMine. I don't use Ruby or Rails currently but when I do, I'll use either RubyMine or IntelliJ IDEA.
I'm not aware of any traditional society which does not have a nuclear family at its core. Hence why marriage is such a big deal in traditional societies. Living close to the extended family or having close relations with other neighbors doesn't mean the core isn't a nuclear family. The only places where nuclear families are not that important are in primitive tribes.
It would be fun to have something like Advent of code, but for arbitrary restrictions.

The grand finale could be making something without using a computer at all or buying anything (Not even for research, you have to use actual books or talk to people), and trying to use as little tech as possible.

Like, you can use a power drill, but if you use a brace and bit you get extra points. You can document with a phone camera but if you can draw you might want to illustrate instead.
Robots can’t even carry enough energy to play a physical/sports game, even if their AI was perfect and cost zero energy itself. There’s no imminent tech that will change this. We have many years.

I’d love to be wrong about that, but I’m probably not.

Check out Robocup for superhuman speed miniature soccer games. But the games are small and short. The humanoid games are much less well developed.
Ah late stage capitalism. Don't innovate, poach.

I don't mean the people shouldn't chose to be compensated well but if you are up against practically infinite funds there is no realistic option for a counter offer.

As long as you always print with a hot bed, that effect doesn't matter - just calibrate it when hot.
>This concern about appearances adds another layer to the already challenging office environment.

I sympathize, but I haven't yet had the pleasure of working with other people without the existence of those kind of friction layers.

At my age I just assume now that it's just part of the human condition -- but maybe it's just me.
Thermal expansion (especially in long cycles) tends to warp beds.
My most recent batch I did the “slow infusion” strategy, but not with highly controlled temperature. I like it more than the hot splash. Better flavor outcome, easier overall since you don’t need to pour super hot oil anywhere. I use a bunch of stuff - erjintao, red lantern, gochugaru, green onion whites, garlic, star anise (not much), cassia bark/cinnamon, bay leaf, of course Sichuan pepper corn. Toast the toastable spices in a pan and grind before starting the infusion. I keep the temperature below the point where the garlic & green onion bubble / burn instead of monitoring with a thermometer. After infusing the spices at higher heat, I reduce heat to a tasteable level so I can mix in MSG, salt, and sugar to taste to complete the balance. I use 50% caiziyou, 50% peanut oil.
I like casual chess; as soon as it gets into blitz and studying openings and patterns I tend to lose interest, that sounds like work, not fun.

Conversely, I've recently had Apple software mess up in a whole bunch of different ways:

• Maps doesn't understand that I don't own a car, defaults to driving sometimes

• Autocorrupt rather than autocorrect

• Calendar suggestions only work for the simplest of dates, so it suggested an event for the wrong month

• One case where it seemed to think the only timezone in the world was California

(It's not all negatives: for me, Apple has the least wrong voice transcription AI, and I do like their computational photography and definitely the ability to select text in images and Safari's website translation — but even then I don't think they're way ahead of the rest with these things, and website translation was definitely behind).
Fair take.

I am not trying to be condescending here, but it's hard to view this behavior as anything but overly disruptive.

https://www.businessdit.com/distraction-work-statistics/

Instead of "just a quick question", the OP could prepare a list of their questions, and ask them all at the allocated time. A scheduled deep dive into the questions the OP has might even be more productive than multiple unscheduled disruptions of others' time.

And in an open office, even if you ask only a single person something, others might hear it too, despite the question not being intended to them.

We are talking about multiple people's brain cycles being dragged out their focus space, we are talking multiple conversations happening next to you, we are talking about click clack of people's keyboards next to you, and people moving going to take a coffee in your peripheral vision. It's a nightmare.

Good observation. I think this would be highly uncommon anywhere else in the world (at this length) but it's normal for Iceland.

The reason is that Iceland's vulcanism is driven by a hot spot that sits right on top of the middle oceanic ridge (where tectonic plates emerge from the mantle, as opposed to coastal subduction zones where they travel back into the mantle).

The ridge is normally on the seafloor and this is one of the very few places where it runs on land. This makes Iceland's volcanism so special and specifically interesting for science.

> Why would someone use this (or even bother to take a look at it) instead of an alternative that is decade-old and trusted?

We live in a world where new and shiny (tech) is espoused over old and trusted all the time. The latest must be the greatest.

Anyone coming in without any prior knowledge of the subject will typically gravitate to the thing that looks newer.

So as the years go on, the new thing will build a new community, while the old thing will generally see it’s community slowly die off.

It’s not great, but it happens more than it should
They exaggerated, but not by much. You can easily find brasseries in Paris with a lunch menu for 15-20 euros. The catch is that you have to eat during lunch time, they are typically not open through the day. Dinners are more of course.
What has helped me (and this may sound like an absurd suggestion as it creates even more work) is to split up all my projects into a public- and a private-facing part, and trying to follow the UNIX principle ("Write programs that do one thing and do it well.").

For all the things I want to share to the world, I'll make it into a small project that from the start has stated goals and non-goals. If there is some divergence from what I need personally from it, I'll have private fork (sometimes also just so I can work on it in a "fast and ugly" manner). By splitting them up consciously, the public and the private part can fulfill their individual goals a lot better ("polished"+finishable public shared part; tailored to my needs perpetual imperfect private part).

That also works surprisingly well for non-code things, like blog posts, where my private versions have a lot more references and detail tidbits sprinkled in, that would overwhelm the target audience of the public version of the post (mostly because it would take too much time to work it into the post in a good way). I guess that's also not a too uncommon phenomenon in the arts, with director's cuts of movies and additional mixes of music existing parallel to the commercially published version.
Can confirm.

Yup, starting to play 2+1 increased my 5+3 rating by 200 up to 1800 (lichess). But continuing to play 2+1 with no analysis or thought hasn't increased my rating further.

I do only play for fun / to kill time, though. So a few games a day on a metro or whatever. So with no aspirations to actually improve I think I'm at the peak of my natural ability.

World of Warships has lots of strategy to it (and the bots suck at it). Good players don't shoot where the ship would be if it kept going straight but take into account the map, other ships positions and psychology to guess evasive maneuvers.
Average food prices most certainly have not done that.
Money paid to Apple isn’t the issue. There have been lots of analogies, and I apologise because I’m going to add to that!

Imagine a music festival. The only way to get tickets is to buy direct from the venue. For years, people have been cutting holes in the fence and allowing people through. While the venue would do their best to close the bigger holes, they’d leave smaller gaps and turn a blind eye. One year, someone starts to advertise the hole they’ve made and suggest a fee for the hole. The venue now cracks down on all holes. The hole-maker complains about this, publicly, and urges government to step in. This is, in my opinion, analogous to the Beeper situation. They know what they are doing is wrong, but are playing dumb.

Trillian, Pidgin et al. really came about after AIM opened up. Apple actually signed a deal with AOL to allow them to include AIM with iChat.

Well you seem to scared of nuclear blackmail to the point of giving up.

Not only that, you publicly advocate for not helping Ukraine and condemning tens of millions of people to horrors is russian oppression.

So you are doing kremlins work exactly as they wish for.

You seem to understand that should we not help Ukraine then they will not stop. They still have nukes to keep scaring you.

What is your strategy?
In my opinion, you might have an overly optimistic view of unions. And you might also be ignoring the downsides of unions.

I get that unions were/are necessary for things like mining workers or so, but SWE is quite different. I'd expect a union to be net-negative in our sector.

Glass and aluminium do expand and might bend when heated, but they don't bend more when heated hundreds of times. Therefore as long as you calibrate it when hot, it should stay calibrated (unless you let the calibration screws vibrate+turn or something)..

Web view is planned, but we're not there yet.

That said... you do realize, that web view (browser) has equally huge attack surface as PDFs do, right? And a lot of PDF viewers are either sandboxed (Chrome PDF viewer, Adobe Reader) or even written in JS (Firefox).
If you're worried about this though, there are services on the internet that convert PDFs into a series of images. You can also view the PDF through e.g. Google Drive or similar services, which do PDF parsing and conversion server side.

Yep. As someone who had previously donated to them, I felt betrayed that they'd jeopardize their very important and virtually one-of-a-kind internet archive in order to pull a stupid stunt where they practically admitted that they were breaking the law.

Ruby shares command-line options with Perl, the use of sigils, many of the single character globals. Besides Smalltalk Perl is probably the biggest influence on Ruby, but the Perl influence is more superficial.
I cannot reproduce this. I used VSCode's live previewer to host the file on localhost (macOS) and tried with the browsers you listed. Removing the meta tag or changing the doctype did not make a difference.

I mean, it would be stupid if the government involved itself into the market to not take advantage of that. What exactly are you proposing? That a company would want the competitors to get handouts and not want them for themselves? That's dumb. So of course if you take it as a given that the government will manipulate the market, companies would want to take advantage of that to get a leg up.

Companies that are market purists don't exist? Any company that outperforms their competitors wants the government to stay out of it. Any company that's behind will want the government to step in so they can take advantage of that and not get run out of business.
Ah yeah, I remember this with Hugi or other diskmags. Let me think about this, it might be an interesting direction :)

The service admins implementing broad blocks to some off site resource is not unique to the fediverse, but the federated nature is there explicitly to mitigate that sort of problem by allowing you to move to another instance.

Taxes are a fixed percentage of whatever is sold, ubless taxes are raised (didn't happen yet) or new taxes are introduced (didn't happen neither), taxes have zero impact on prices.

The money we threw at the pandemic, like everyone else in the developed world, avoided an economic crash worse than 2008. It resulted in inflation so, among other causes.

I see examples of that pretty much everywhere. People that regularly do and practice something get to be better than the vast majority of people, so talent and intelligence end up playing a lesser role.

You're still stuck in the mindset that the comment is about what the code is doing. Good comments are orthogonal to the code they're attached to.
So what you are asking is that OP destroy their own "deep work" a lot just that you don't get a mild distraction in yours.

> And in an open office, even if you ask only a single person something, others might hear it too, despite the question not being intended to them.

I guess I'm special, because when I'm in a "deep work", I just don't hear people around me. I know it's not the case of everyone, some of my colleagues just put noise-suppression headphones, which is yet another easy way to solve your problem without forcing others to cater to your needs.

Of course, open space can be bad, and there are numerous examples of crazy open space situations. But what OP was describing is clearly not to the extend of what you are talking then.
Can you compare it with GTK bindings for Rust?

I'm a big fan of QML, but I've avoided Qt on Rust for some time due to poor experiences with earlier bindings a while ago.

At the time, using GTK, imgui, etc were a bit friendlier on Rust than Qt. Hoping this has changed.
