Actual warming in the past 20 years has been at a trivial speed, bordering on undetectable unless you use very well sited stations and very accurately calibrated instruments: barely a fraction of a degree per decade. You can't even see a trend with the naked eye, you have to work it out by computer:

(select one month/all months for hi-res data).

Note that data before 2005 (and after it outside the USA) comes from heavily corrupted sites that were never meant for climatologists and which have experienced a lot of urban development and building-related warming. The post-2005 US CRN data comes from weather stations meant specifically for monitoring the climate. And after that new weather station comes online US warming turns out to be way slower than predicted, and not alarming.

> I also think focusing solely on polar bears is bit of misguided when we're talking about the effects of climate change. They are one species and deciding whether or not things are bad given the outcome of that one species is misguided.

There are very few species that have been seriously claimed to be endangered by climate change, polar bears are by far the most often presented to the public. It's right and proper that false predictions about one species informs people's expectations about predictions for others, especially as it's not the only failure. Corals have stopped being referred to as being killed off by climate change after the Great Barrier Reef made a sudden and unexpectedly huge recovery after its last bleaching, reaching record levels and completely confounding the "experts" who had data stretching back only a few decades.

Have you looked into options around medical leave and/or disability? It certainly sounds like your health is impacting your ability to do your job so those seem like appropriate avenues to explore. Hopefully if you are able to make use of those options they would provide you enough of a buffer to relieve some of the stress you are experiencing and get back on top of your health.
Calling archaeology and history "deeply entwined" with white supremacy is extremely inaccurate. You can certainly find examples of biased historical perspectives going all the way back to Herodotus (known both as the "father of history" and the "father of lies" by his contemporaries). But to apply that categorization to every European explorer is modern propaganda that the "woke" crowd tends to eat up.

I was born in India, and the best resources I have to learn about the history of my ancestors were written by German anthropologists in the 1920s and 1930s. Just because they came from an increasingly xenophobic society, does not mean that categorization should automatically apply to them and their work. The most biased historical perspectives, interestingly enough, seem to come from Indian scholarship - usually by claiming the authors of the Vedas knew everything there is to know about science and the natural world.

The reason I take the time to even write a response here is because propagating a biased view of history can harm people. A vast majority of Indians believe that Ayurvedic remedies are more effective than modern medicine, and many pay for engaging in this widespread anti-colonial perspective with their lives.

When I graduated and moved out -- mid 1980s -- I had no desire to share an apartment with anyone, and no need since apartments were still kinda affordable. They were not the majority of your paycheck -- maybe 30, 35%. When we got to the early 2000s rents started to climb and I started hearing a lot more about people needing roommates. Wages have not kept pace with rent, not by a long shot.

Increasing prices, even before the inflationary pressure caused by outside forces in the last year or so, have more than eaten any increase on average salary. The extra jobs vacated by EU citizens we've made officially less welcome are mostly jobs people don't want so instead of increased employment we've got seasonal work & other "unskilled" work not being done, and low paid but high stress jobs (nursing care etc.) also going unfilled. Other vacant jobs are in areas we have not yet made up the skills shortfall in (have you tried to get a plumber in recently?).

The wealthier "class" is doing perfectly fine and knew they would be, that is why so many of them told big porkies to convince others to vote that way.

The upside is obviously that it's cheaper for the government. However, given Boeing's failures, that is no longer a reasonable bet to hedge on. We need to stop it before air travel becomes even more dangerous than car travel. Self-regulation with occasional friendly audits did work for a few decades, though, but Boeing got lazy and cocky and the FAA got too friendly and incestuous.

Firstly, you have a LOT of skills which are highly valuable to the world. Secondly, you might feel and even be right that due to your psychological state you can't perform at the level that a hardcore venture-capital-backed tech company requires and that's OK. Thirdly, even at whatever level of performance you are capable of there are companies where you'd be the best tech wizard around. Look for places where technology is mostly considered a supporting factor. As an example from my previous experience: academic publishing. Nice, clever people, academic vibe, mostly haven't a clue about technology. You could do some kind of data work to make their publishing process more digital first, or help them build a better online direct-to-consumer e-shop. Probably there's a hundred industries just like it that are not the tech industry but are having to become tech companies in some way. Don't waste your valuable knowledge but find somewhere that you can work at a different tempo.

People with lower education level have a smaller pool of jobs available. Those overlap with people traveling for work from places with a lower economic standard. A lack of migrant workers means higher wages and more opportunity.

It's why few on here get projects from upwork. A select few can specialize and demand US market rates while most compete with individuals happy to make $5 US an hour.

Growing the economy doesn't mean it is going to trickle to the poorest. Often a country with a high growth rate has a large divide between rich and poor. Often a slower growth country funnels that wealth to the lowest in society.
Oh I think I got confused with the ESP32s with integrated "external" ram. And yeah, I think I was comparing them to the esp8xxx, which obviously have less ram. Still, the esp32 hasn't changed that much since the first version then I guess. I mean except for all the peripherals!

> 1. The common failure of docs to explain to users why they might choose one thing or another. "If you want to do x.. If you want to do y.." what if I don't know?

Observability docs in general struggle with this. So many data sources can emit so many types of metrics in so many formats, and every tool makes this impossible promise of consolidating it all into one space seamlessly. But tools like Grafana pride themselves so much on visualizing _anything_ that they paint themselves into a corner where they can't be prescriptive about common uses or methods without excluding or confusing others.

So a lot of the prescriptive answers to "what if I don't know?" gets chucked onto account and support teams of commercial vendors, because the docs can't anticipate every possible context in which an observability tool will get deployed. Each solution ends up being custom tailored and poorly portable to anyone else's, often not even to other customers with the same data sources and goals at the same scale due to wacky labelling differences or legacy requirements or some internal stakeholder demand.

More narrowly focused tools don't have as many of these problems, but not many organizations want narrowly focused observability tools. (Lots of _people_ do, but orgs don't want to pay out deals to multiple vendors for what looks like different flavors of the same result. And hey look it's Grafana Cloud or Datadog or whatever, it can do _anything_, so you devs and also bizops and SRE and IT and hey sales wants a dashboard too and so does the company cafeteria, why not, you all can just use this one tool and we just deal with one bill with a volume discount, right? Right??)

Smarter tools don't have as many of these problems by papering over the docs limitations by being better able to anticipate or surface connections between data sources, metrics, logs, traces, events, etc., and does so with better interfaces. But especially for high-cardinality data the usability of those tools either seems to fall apart or their companies charge Datadog-sized invoices.

> I don't know any engineers who would characterize the world as being simply defined by "a few simple formulae"

I'm an electrical engineer. The Standard Model of particle physics governs literally all of existence, minus gravity, and it can fit on a single page [1]. Gravity is another few equations that can also squeeze onto that same page. This is a set of fairly simple formulae compared to the unbelievable complexity of existence.

A universal Turing machine can compute any computable function and it's description is even shorter.

In other words, unimaginable complexity can follow from "a few simple formulae". I don't know many engineers that would dispute this. Your problem is that you have some conception of "simple" that does not match what rationalists mean.

As an Apple user and developer, I don't disagree with the gist of the article, but I do have two criticisms:

1) "But that's not the only bad outcome. Some lucky service providers are able to pay the Apple Tax by gouging Apple's customers, raising prices to pay the danegeld. That's the second effect."

This is a common but unfortunately gross misunderstanding. The App Store actually devalued software, creating a race to the bottom, and the main reason is that the App Store directly cloned the iTunes Music Store, which itself devalued albums and was designed to sell 99 cent singles. It's a terrible model for selling software. I've written about it before here: "App Store is neither console nor retail but jukebox" https://lapcatsoftware.com/articles/jukebox.html

As an indie developer, my biggest problem isn't Apple's cut (which for me is only 15% now); rather it's the expectation of cheap software that the App Store has created. I would be happy to pay 30% or even more if I could charge pre-2008 prices, and if Apple would actually do my marketing for me, as some people ignorantly claim. You can't "make it up in volume". Musicians couldn't make it up in volume either. There are a billion possible customers, but turning possible customers into actual customers is actually very hard, and also expensive.

Read Apple's 2019 document "Addressing Spotify’s claims":

> A full 84 percent of the apps in the App Store pay nothing to Apple when you download or use the app. That’s not discrimination, as Spotify claims; it’s by design

As a software developer, that statement makes me wince. It's an open admission that Apple intentionally devalued software and created the expectation among users that they shouldn't have to pay for it.

2) The title of the article is unfair. Mac users are not the problem, because the Mac is more open than the iPhone — for example, you can install software from outside the App Store — and there are 10x as many iPhone users as Mac users.
When you retract inwards and don't stand up to bullies from the position of strength, you get world war and is eventually forced to fight.

Be careful, there are also programming jobs like this that pay less and also have less structure and higher expectations.

It's not an absolute rule that "boring" companies or whatever are walks in the park.

In a lot of cases they aren't because they actually have to make a profit and so they tend to be incredibly understaffed at least by the standards I kinda got used to in the tech industry. I can only speak for finance and insurance though, maybe the government really is slow paced but people said that about insurance before I got this job and its the hardest I've ever had to work and it isn't even close.

Now if most of the stress is actually coming from fear of layoffs, that genuinely is better in my experience, there havent been any programmers laid off in the three years I've been here, but only because you are working so much harder that they literally cannot afford to lay anybody off. Checks would probably stop going out on time if they did.

Anyway, definitely people should look into it and maybe interview around, I'm just warning everyone not to take the tech industry meme about sleepy banks and insurance companies at face value without a lot of evidence. If you think about it it never made much sense but I think everyone in tech falls for it due to us having a tendency to think we are the smartest and the dude-bro-fratboys in underwriting or <other stereotypically boring job> are all hanging out having a party all day.
You're not gonna get the combination of good compensation/agreeable workload anywhere other than tech.

I work in general STEM and the compensation gap even between tech STEM and non-tech STEM is huge. A mid level IT guy with a handful of certs will pull more than a senior chemist with a masters degree. And work from home to boot.

Just figure out how to stay in tech if you need a decent livable income and want free time.
By that logic, murder is no crime, since everyone dies eventually anyways. Hopefully you can see how "lengthening billions of lives" has some moral and economic value.
It looks like every software dev in the entire country is either laid off today or adjacent to someone that was. Yikes indeed.
That's a super valid use case. Let me know how it goes!

The `username` is passed to the global secret helper and is thus used for it as part of the pick/prompt context for password. I'm using the libsecret helper but this works with any.
I am very familiar with such low level workings. On a modern, fast machine, the amount of computation required by FM synthesis is so small compared with the machine's throughput that it just doesn't matter.

Yes, on modern chips float math will generally be faster than fixed point. This is not so much because the integer units get clogged, as that there's a huge amount of chip area and optimization that goes into the float units (often SIMD, and a lot of FM synthesis can benefit from this, though feedback creates data dependencies). For example, multiply-and-add is usually one cycle in float, but would always be two separate instructions in integers.

My recollection is that older ARM chips have a special issue with latency of data dependencies originating from the float unit (NEON, which is optimized for SIMD vector operations) to the integer unit. I suspect this is no longer the case, or is less of an issue.
US Patent examiners have for decades been very much of the position to not worry much about existing prior art when granting patents, relying instead on the idea that people will challenge and overturn patents when necessary (this applies to the non-obviousness bar, too).

This, coupled with a tendency for Patent examiners to have a subsequent well-paid career drafting patents, has lead to thousands of sketchy patents on the books that have high odds of being overturned, but only if a sufficiently resourced party challenges them.

We shall see how these patents hold up...

> Has anyone felt the same pain points with localStorage before?

For Sandstorm, we've always want to make sure app data is stored on a server, but an increasing number of web apps love to use localStorage as a cheap hack to avoid writing a backend. I recall a bunch of attempts back in the day, but we were always looking for a simple way to include something with an app written to use localStorage which could store the data on a server backend instead.

I dealt with crippling depression and anxiety for most of my adult life. I used alcohol to try and tamp it down and that went about as well as you can expect.

After decades of failed therapy, failed pharmaceuticals, etc. what really worked for me was taking mushrooms and thinking deeply about myself, my life, and who I wanted to be.

It sounds nuts, but it dramatically changed how I perceive myself and my place within the world. It saved my marriage and my relationship with my kids.

I realize that it is utterly unorthodox, but nothing else was working for me. For those that I come across who feel like nothing is helping, I recommend trying it. Preferably under the supervision of a clinical psychiatrist, but otherwise if there is no other option.

It's been about 18 months and I'm a fundamentally different person today.
