Obscurity in the future? Or obscurity now?

There was no alternative. The old internet, frankly, requires people to pay. They don't if they can avoid it at all. This is what killed most desktop software before, and it is what's killing most internet software.
I have two children. I live in Finland and previously we lived in New York.

The cost of having and raising a child in Finland is minimal compared to the U.S.
Who says they want it to be for all classes?

Right now, the rich are disproportionately punished for having children while the poor are basically paid for it. How about flip flopping that?
Where could I explore this further? Are these sequences specific to the device?

My current setup includes two Dell monitors (U2415 with 2x HDMI "MHL" inputs and built in USB-3 hubs.) I'm using these with a Linux X86_64 desktop. I also use Logi vertical mouse and ATK (A.JAZZ) keyboard, both on Bluetooth and both also have dongles.

I would dearly love to use the keyboard/monitor/mouse on a Raspberry Pi 5 (BT and two micro-HDMI ports) with a pure S/W based solution rather than spending $$$ for a H/W KVM switch.

Thanks!

Similar experience here. I was in objectively terrible shape in my teens through mid-20s; didn’t eat enough, didn’t sleep enough, didn’t drink enough water, and spent most of my day at a desk.

Flash forward to today in my mid-30s and all of this has improved dramatically (though has room for improvement), and yet lack of sleep is much harder on me now than it was back then.

The solution is to run your own Mastodon instance. Unfortunately, I find doing so can be quite a hassle. Obviously it's not free, and not only do you need to configure it properly, but you need to handle backups, updates and so on. Even for me, with a fair bit of technical experience, it can be challenging. I think there are significant barriers to doing so for people with no or little technical knowledge.
In those 11 years fertility has fallen near universally. Speaking as a millennial, I never saw my career as a means towards changing the world or some life mission driven by passion; I just wanted to find stable employment to hopefully find some financial security and keep my ass in health insurance (I foolishly contracted a childhood condition that left me somewhat disabled). Graduating into the great recession and trying to stay on the treadmill of employment as I flee one layoff or another hasn't left much space in life for a lot else.

I actually feel quite fortunate these days (for a number of reasons) that I never wanted children (also for a number of reasons); if I had I can imagine that it would be quite a disappointment at how it has become ever more infeasible.
Cause if nobody has children your retirement funds are worthless, and you can't get bread at 70 or later because nobody is making it.
No one pays based on cost of living. They pay based on what people it takes to hire a certain role in a given market. There is no point in making companies look good because they pay exceedingly well compared to the cost of living in some areas if the opposite is true in others.

Obviously there is some correlation with pay vs cost of living as it helps people determine what they are willing to accept, but it is not the primary mechanism companies are using.

Also companies who pay the same regardless of where you live are still not paying based on cost of living.
Do you mean password spraying? Or credential stuffing? Or something different entirely?
And many employers offer Flex Savings Accounts for child/dependent care, which I believe are capped at $5,000 per year.

So the child tax care credit is $2,000 cash for each kid, then $5,000 of your child care costs are pre-tax. Criticize that all you want, but why lie about it? Or be ignorant and sanctimonious?
I am using keycloak for quite a while. The main problem I have with it is that you can't get a link to reset a password, you have to issue an api that does it for you. In fact that is how most of the product goes. It is very opinionated.
Making it a cluster is also not easy, though I did it and it works ok.
Another issue is that the realms has a limit. Though you can spin up an instance every 200 realms but it is not for me... Instead, I just use it for login and do the roles internally in my app for every tenant<>user<>Role but then I get back to thinking, this was an overkill... but a login system that is secured is difficult and I don't want to deal with that...

I am complaining but what is the alternative? Do it all yourself? It is either too risky or too difficult...
Cool, thank you for creating this :)
This is the usual argument people make - that having children is harder and less affordable than before - but the highest fertility rates are pretty consistently recorded in impoverished and conflict-torn countries, where raising a child requires sacrifices much greater than it does in the West. And conversely, increasing standards of living and having more disposable income is the #1 predictor of dropping fertility rates. You see it in Europe, in Asia, in America.

The problem isn't that people in the West need to make greater sacrifices than their ancestors did. It's that they no longer want to make small ones. The price tag you mention is what you pay if you don't want to make any lifestyle changes. Not moving closer to one's parents, so that they could provide child care. Not cutting down discretionary spending, not giving up on career goals.

I'm not saying this to judge people, but I think the fallacy here is that we assume things would improve if we offered longer parental leaves, child subsidies, state-run childcare, or whatever - but in every country where such programs are implemented, they don't really make any difference. There may be other reasons to do it, but I guess the only tried and true way to fix fertility is famine and war...
I bought my first apartment in my mid twenties, like my parents did. Let's measure it in Porsches. Their place was newer than mine and cost them less than a run down Porsche. My tiny apartment cost me about the same as a new 911 with multiple extras.
This is generally way easier for employers, since they can pick a FIDO2-enabled SSO platform, and then tie everything to that. So you don’t need each service to have sane FIDO2 support, you just need them to support SAML/OIDC/etc.

You also get mostly out of the key management business, because you can say “if you get locked out, call the help desk”, vs personal usage where backup keys / account recovery requires a per-service recovery flow.
After working with Keycloak for a couple of years I honestly got fed up with all it's quirks and started to look at alternatives, Authentik and many more looked promising but Zitadel[1] caught my eye and I've never looked back since.

Either slf4j or java’s standard lib API interface (since java 9 I believe) works with everything basically.
It's an interesting take...

If you're a 12 year old teenager who doesn't know anything about society and economics.

If you apply this logic to any resource that is being paid for collectively (like roads or maybe safety/rescue service), but not being used by everyone at all times, it becomes very evident why "others" pay for something that benefits the collective.
Financial issues aside, it brings a lot of uncertainties and responsibilities in your everyday routine. For good and bad, your mind is never truly alone for the rest of your life. The child gets sick and nothing else matters at that moment. You must be able to deal graciously with all kinds of mood emotional states ranging from stubbornness, through laziness, to exhilaration.

You must have reserves and be mobilised like a warrior in every aspect – financially, mentally, physically.
> For some people who have been able to work through their own trauma, the processing may have been wordless, barely conceptual, not at all based in logical processing or traditional talk therapy.

That's a good point, and definitely at odds with what OP wrote here:

> But there are a lot of people for whom "holding it in" and adopting general-purpose stoic principles are enough.

In every case I've ever witnessed, "holding it in" meant that someone tried to refrain from showing any signs of distress (spoken or body language) when they are in fact feeling a very negative emotion.

Outside of special cases-- say, someone who might get physically ill if they don't stop crying-- "holding it in" is so close to denial that we might as well call it functionally equivalent.

Alternatively, wordlessly sitting with one's emotions is actively encouraged in any healthy setting I've ever been a part of. Often it is the thing that people try their hardest to avoid doing, using a host of techniques like misdirection, rationalization, even problem solving. And in the cases I've seen, that person isn't trying to hold anything in. You can clearly see the secondary signs of them feeling pain.

Moreover, I'd be concerned about someone who cannot even put a few descriptors to what their pain felt like after the fact. It's a useful thing to do even for a simple check in over time. I have a hard time believing that doing so would actually hinder someone's ability to confront whatever it is they're dealing with.

Finally, just to rankly speculate a bit more-- one who has stoicism as a target would almost certainly advance toward their goal by being open to fully feeling and expressing the deeper pains they struggle with. IIRC, identifying, feeling, accepting, and expressing certain pains oftenmake the impact of that pain decrease over time (if slowly).

So, ironically, the non-stoic person slowly progresses closer to "indifference to pain" than the stoic who is (according to OP) holding it in.
Bitcoin isn't replacing any of them, so it's a moot point. If someone wants to buy real estate using bitcoin they are still probably going to use a realtor (or at the very least a lawyer) and they still probably need a mortgage, title insurance, and home insurance. If a company wants to go public, there is still going to be an army of i-bankers involved, even in a bitcoin denominated world.

The banking sector exists for a reason. There are certainly parts of it that are superfluous and excessive, but someone somewhere is willingly paying for that excess, and that won't change under a bitcoin regime. And I personally think that most of the excess is due to excessive speculative activity in our financial system, and if anything, bitcoin seems like it will make that part worse.
Why not use a password manager? You're just taking on risk by subjectively evaluating which sites can be trusted with a clever password.
I think having a healthy community where children can grow to be well-educated, good citizens benefit everyone in the long run. And it is not like zero-sum game, I think there might be very cheap solutions with good ROI. Solutions can be found if there is a will and concerted effort. I don't live in US, this is the model in my mind.
As dumb as it sounds I think the solution is to only pay high income earners to have kids. Not for any kind of moralistic reason but because every time it's surveyed high income earners believe the minimum "lifestyle" required to ethically raise a child is much higher than people with lower incomes. So people living comfortably as DINKs will only raise a child if they can give their kid the same comfortable life they enjoy and often times they can't once you account for high healthcare, daycare and private school costs.

You can be like "well then they shouldn't have such high expectations, expect and accept a lifestyle drop, and send their kids to public school" but you're yelling at a river to change course.
That's absolutely true - you become a member of a global club and can bond with people who will be walled away from you otherwise. Your own parents also make a reappearance in your life.
I was born in the early '60s and I have no children.

Economical concerns are surely part of the equation but I also suspect that in Western Culture adults tend to have a more individualistic stance and this could also be a factor.

What I mean is: as soon as we start getting some sort of economic independence we tend to focus on our own hobbies, travels, interests. Those of us who are lucky enough in being in a long lasting relationship would hopefully do this together... but we are always aware that the moment a child enters our life, we can forget most of it, at least for a decade.
Odd to hear you describe it as irrational.
It kind of is stupid and impossible. You can't let computer make business decisions where somebody needs to be accountable (sometimes even criminally) for such decision. So I am not worried about any managers and I am not worried about accountants. If that ever become a possibility in the future, then any crook can hide behind AI.
Point at your closest American highschool (pop > 1000). There are more than one girls in that school who can pull 405 for reps.

If you don’t think this is possible, you know nothing about highschool athletics.

Teen girls can actually pull quite a lot heavier than 405, ha.
No, neither the article nor the post I originally replied to specify anything more specific than “database”. Database != RDBMS.

A data warehouse is a type of database and is does need to be managed. Your assertion that it is easier to manage is orthogonal to my assertion that there will always be a central database to manage in an organization of decent size.
My life improved once I started tracking my sleep using a whoop strap.

I can see the quality of my sleep last night and calibrate my day based on that. Do this everyday and every day feels good->great.
Fromy my experience, they aren't great at stealth. I once had them in a hotel room, they came crawling towards me as soon as I laid down. I killed the first two and fled. Got a different room at the same place that was not infested (it was late and I was poor then). No bedbugs came home with me though I did put clothes in the freezer just in case.
You're equally messed up if your account on a centralised service is banned, in which case you chose the wrong one. You could choose a server that's signed up to the Mastodon Covenant to provide some more peace of mind, and should always take a backup of your account from time-to-time.
It's not that we are bad at this type of thinking-- but who cares? There will always be weird scenarios and odd things-- when I played the game I was like "Is anyone dying here?'

Aside from the Ambulance thing-- no. It's just a park. So let's relax. Content moderation is also totally imprecise with edge cases. Most likely no one dies from it well or badly applied.

Was the actual purpose of Finland's policies to support parents or to increase overall fertility? I've always considered similar policies' goal to be supporting the parents meaning that a declining birthrate wouldn't mean the "got it wrong", it would simply mean fewer people want kids. As long as those that do receive support, I'd call the system a success.
I think this is less blame on the parents and more blaming on society’s lack of understanding of human mental health. It’s just when it comes to parents, the trauma and misery of raising a child is more well known and therefore more understanding is granted. It’s also why people without children can be viewed as overly judgmental of flawed parenting— they are kind of being the guy who goes “what, you’re not over it already” to someone who was assaulted or similar.
I'm kidding a bit here. My post is actually agreeing with the parent poster but in a sort of roundabout deceptive way of appearing to disagree.

It got flagged and several downvotes. Likely from saying that css is terrible. But I mean that's the essence of the parents actual argument is it not? He's essentially saying css is just not well made or poorly designed. I'm just more on the nose about what he's actually saying.

Either way as you pointed out css being logical is from a very technical perspective correct.
You're incentivized to either choose a stable, robust instance, or self-host. A lot of instances are pet projects that people kill off once they get bored of mastodon and don't want to pay for the upkeep anymore.

Self-hosting is the only way to really guarantee that it'll still be up years later. But you might get randomly banned from certain instances that blanket-ban single-user instances.
Huh, is it true that "its trauma if you think it is" is a current and respected, if not widespread theory? I'm no neurobiochemiologist but it always felt to me like the difference between painful memory and trauma was the involuntary aspect of reaction to trauma. I can think of a painful memory in the middle of a presentation and not appear troubled, i could not say the same for a trauma. My laymans experience with ptsd is that most experiences are outwardly visible (i don't know anyone diagnosed with severe so please excuse my ignorance)
Yeah, and taking humans who hate bikes out of the equation - I basically stopped biking because several drivers literally tried to run me down (on a residential street no less).
What is sad about the child care credit: it’s like half the cost of one kid, and doesn’t scale with the number of kids you have. So ya, it saves you ~$1k-1.5K year in taxes, it’s kind of useless.
Very late to this, but it will come. You will bond with your child and not even realize it. I would have said that I wasn't bonded with my child. In fact, she kind of annoyed me. Then I sent her away for a month to get a break. Suddenly everything fell apart for me emotionally. Turned out I could not think avout her when I was working etc because I was very comfortable with the people she was in the care of. Now that she was with people I really trusted, but several hours away withoit the ability to a check in on her whenever I wanted, it made me realize how very bonded I was to her.

I remember walking to her room out of habit and then laughing because of course she wouldn't be there. And then I'd do that 2 or 3 times a day every day. Other such absurdities.

I think that was a good experience for me because I still don't think about my kid very much when she's not around, but it doesn't mean I'm not attached to her.
You can beat estimates for a while by ramping up prices and cutting staff and costs.

Facebook has, among other things, cut their developer support to basically zero. Bugs in the APIs sit around for years. The Groups API is just being discontinued entirely.
> Procreation is a choice on an individual level but on a societal level it is not a choice at all, it is absolutely mandatory.

It absolutely is not.

100% agree. "Tax credits", cash payments, and the like are all wrong imo. Free public education (aka free daycare) got us to where we are. Let's extend this and make free public education go as low as 6mo old or even include newborn care (might as well).

Universal health care would also be a huge boon, the costs of providing health care are quite high.

In the past our society seemed a lot more inclined to share and pool resources to raise the next generation... now it feels like society will only do the bare minimum to prevent kids from dying, but other than that isn't eager to take on a communal parenting role, instead forcing the entire burden on parents.

That’s a serious citation needed: if you think there are lavish social payments which reward poor people for having kids, the 80s called and want Reagan’s campaign mythology back. The United States makes parenting expensive but the richer you are the easier time you’ll have dealing with it.
> generation X [...] toddler play dates.

You must either be right at the tail end of Gen X, or you had kids REALLY late. I'm in the middle of Gen X, didn't have a kid until I was 35, and my kid is about to turn 18.
This will potentially change as you get older. I’m in my very early 40s and what you say for my 30s was also true but not any more. Most of my friends at the same age as me report the same.

>Friedman: One of the pieces of what I see as good news in this story is that more people, women and men, are willing and able to say, “I don’t want to have children.” For women especially, I see this as a kind of social progress in human evolution. In every generation prior to the current one, women have been normatively sanctioned to think of themselves as mothers. There’s almost a mindless march into motherhood throughout history. That question hasn’t really been raised. Today, young women are saying, “I don’t feel a need to do that.”

Mr. Friedman should interview the women after their biological window has closed, and see if there answers have changed. Not doing so is ignoring the full picture of how we conceptualize an idea like having children over the course of our entire lives.
Thoughts on a Global Design System
This is great!
Github Copilot used to summarize our PRs - I think it can work perfectly as a Github workflow to add comments to newly opened PRs.
Can be a nice experiment to use multiple models and compare the comments to determine what works better.
Are you really asking why companies take risks on new projects that might not work out? Or expecting that companies can perfectly predict which projects will succeed?

Look at it this way: What if the developers were only paid after the product broke even and starts "delivering value". You think you're going to get a lot of developers signing up to work on a new project that might only pay them if they stick with it for a few years and it succeeds due to reasons that include things out of their control (like sales cycles, market moves, etc.)?

This will just lead to more people having kids for the paycheck they provide. Parents who view their kids as a source of income, instead of as a life they are responsible for nurturing, are generally not great parents. A bunch of bad parents with bad motivations leads to a generation of dysfunctional people.

Where did I "justify violence?" The Second Amendment is quite clear and contains its own justification.

Again, you need violence to disarm people - so you're really not "against violence" - you're just against those using it that you don't agree with.
