I don’t know about you, but I have computers that aren’t in the same time zone I’m it. I probably want them to reboot at night where I am, not where they are.

But yes, “reboot a laptop at 2am” is in the general category of alarm clock use cases, where a time (but not a date!) with a separately determined time zone makes sense.

The OP mentioned LocalDateTime, which doesn’t make sense for this use case.
What the author describes sounds similar to the normal process of reviewing a first or even a second draft, but with extra terror and bullying built into it.

Every essay I receive is graded with a terrible harshness. Almost no one gets an A on the first try. But all students are given a second try. I return their essays with dozens of comments in the margins, a graded rubric, and a paragraph of instructions on how they should improve their work.

Sometimes I think, returns are a bit to easy. There are too many Apple fans with too much money who just ordered it for fun. And then discover that it is a very much first generation product.

I am absolutely thrilled by what I hear about the VP, but I am also quite sure that I want to wait for the first update before spending a lot of money on it. Because the hardware will be refined and of course, the software improved.
This is really reductive to the point of being actually harmful when trying to understand the culture difference.

While yes, I am sure that there are many peasant people who have a "don't rock the boat" mindset, this is totally ignorant to the fact that China in the last two centuries alone was:

Invaded by Japan, invaded by every European colonial power, had a communist revolution, underwent massive industrialization, had the cultural revolution (that sort of kills the "docile student" narrative by itself), had multiple civil wars, fought in the Korean and Vietnam wars, fought against Russia, and recently in the last 40 years has opened up to international trade and market economies.

Compare the life stories of Donald Trump and Xi Xinping. Which of the two seems more adventurous? I'm not even trying to say one culture is better or worse, I am just trying to point out that your historical synopsis is not accurate and is really oversimplifying things.

Tesla has a history of making low volume prototypes that they sell to weird early adopters and then making high volume cars. The prototypes validate the designs without as much potential for a crushing warranty bill if a technology bet isn't great.

For instance, tesla went through several varieties of battery chemistry in the early days of the S before landing on the setup they ended up sticking with for the model 100 and later models.

The CT is a similar low volume prototype of the maxwell technology dry cell battery stuff, 48 volt and "drive by wire" architecture that is 100% novel. They're really better off just selling it to a smaller number of people until they get the bugs worked out. The stainless steel stuff is cute but not the hard part of the CT.
Are these three the precise combination of factors that must be present for EVs to break through? Would be interesting to see the research on that.

American states are pretty different. Many have scattered populations. Some have abundant hydro power. There’s even a state with a permanent fund for oil income:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Permanent_Fund

The Alaska fund is smaller than the Norwegian one, but it pays out an annual income to all residents, so it’s not really comparable either. I suspect the Alaska fund may have been one inspiration for the Norwegian model.
I used Pycharm briefly in 2017 and thought wow this is great, does a lot of type checking just out of the box.

But after coming back to it in 2024, I found it quite lacking in multiple areas compared to LSP based type checkers. I work on a sizable Python codebase and opening it in Pycharm everything looks great at first glance. Then you open it in an LSP editor and you see warnings and type errors everywhere that Pycharm never caught and everyone using Pycharm never sees.

So, in my opinion, yes, much better than Pycharm, unless you have an affinity for Jetbrains products, LSP type checkers are much better. Again in my opinion, others may disagree.

Worth briefly explaining the rationale for this (stdlib gets to use unstable features)

Rust's stdlib is maintained with the rest of the language and by the same broad team, so, if you're tweaking unstable feature X, you are also responsible for ensuring the stdlib people using feature X sort that out. I'm not sure if Rust's internal policies mean you shouldn't land a change to the main tree without accompanying stdlib patches, or whether you're only required to give them adequate notice, but either way it's not going out the door in a stable release being incompatible with its own implementation.

This couldn't really work with 3rd party libraries.

Didn't have time to read it but listened via LibriVox. It's a story of a violent age where thuggery ruled. Women were at the mercy of men (E.g. Penelope having to just about control a bunch of 'suitors').

USA housing starts is collapsing.

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/HOUST

It's no wonder why house prices are so high when we are (inadvertently) cutting housing supply.

USA production of houses needs to be twice as much compared to 50 years ago to keep up with population growth... But we've lost housing production in recent years, not gained it. We are moving in the wrong direction.

----------

There's plenty of debate on why housing starts is declining. I don't care too much of the details though, the focus needs to be a concerted effort to reverse the trend and fix our country wide housing problem

> You may be forced to participate in it if you stay, conscription.

My understanding is that computer geeks are currently exempt from conscription.

OP's question suggests that it is still relatively easy to get a visa (living in Moscow should make it easy to visit embassies and do the needful), fly out of SVO, and convert ruble assets to local at the destination. (my bank stopped quoting ruble conversions last year, but presumably this is easier in other jurisdictions)

Unfortunately, unless one has dual citizenship (compare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEWIfS7ZIr8 ) one is always at the mercy of one's birth country for travel documents. (and it is not unknown for a country to require that if you hold their passport, you must use theirs for entry and exit)

Maybe I am being overly paranoid, but if there is a list of geeks who are exempt from conscription, I would worry that it only takes one political decision to have a list of geeks whose passports should be pulled were they to attempt to leave.

(My bias: both I and my spouse are around because we had ancestors who got out of various jurisdictions while the getting was good. As they say: if you think you ever will, the best time to emigrate was 20 years ago; the second best time is now)

Questions for OP: do you have any destinations in mind? who (avoiding PII!) would you be taking with you?

It's a sketch of a thought at the moment.

But I am, well, mid-life at best, and the only crisis I am experiencing is that I think much of what I have done for years is worth less than I would have hoped.

I think it is ironic that technology seems to serve people less and less (and advertisers more and more) at just exactly the same time as every possible piece of technology is falling in price and increasing in availability.

Want to make a small device with a colour LCD display, buttons, an entirely custom enclosure, a rechargeable battery and a custom PCB? The cost of doing that has never been lower. Even if you only want one.

Want to give some tool a comfortable handgrip for accessibility reasons that needs to be parametrically adjustable? The software tools are free and the prototyping tools are incredibly cheap.

Want to find the answer to a question about your local area that would have required months of library time? The software is free and shockingly complete data sets are available from governments.

So why do so many people, even adults my age and younger, feel that technology is out of their control?

I have always felt as a freelance developer that the work I am paid for is just the seed in the middle of a larger fruit, where I listen and discuss and explain and educate.

I feel I should be turning it inside out. Making the listening, discussion, education the product, and the development work ancilliary to it (because it almost always is).

What I find interesting about Python, specifically, is how many applications it is suitable for, considering its ease of access -- CAD packages, 3D printing, PCB design, GIS, microcontrollers, statistics. Children's and adult education etc.

So while I have a little time I am spending it re-orienting myself into Python as a programmer "way-of-life", and away from the tools I have been using so far (which has never, really, meant Python).

And as I do so I am getting a sense of how it might fit into me turning my freelance work inside out to become a teacher/trainer/educator/facilitator, largely for adults, to help them have better concepts of technology (even for just the humdrum business of getting suppliers to quote for bespoke projects).

A vague sketch, sorry -- but I think this might answer your question.
That is a huge fine.
> odd how you decided not to quote them though

This is a ridiculous, nutty criticism. You're complaining that I left off "lol I did" and instead replaced it with "in reference to the Wikipedia article about US v. Microsoft"? That's exactly what you did by adding "[read the wikipedia article]"! In fact, you left off a part of the sentence too, the "lol" at the start.

> this very clearly is the poster explaining they meant it in the colloquial sense rather than the strict legal sense. If they had meant it in the strict legal sense they would have claimed _all_ of it was overturned on appeal.

No, this doesn't follow at all. It's still the legal sense.

Moreover, that wasn't the end of the case, which was my point in responding to whynotminot. We don't have to guess about what whynotminot meant, because they said exactly what they were referring to: the appeal. They were not referring to the settlement. Nor did they consider that the case was remanded back to district court. So any legal or colloquial "win" was temporary at best.

> bolster your own argument, namely that people who can win don't settle

No, my argment was that people who did win don't settle. As I explained above, the appeal judgment did not actually end the case, which is why the parties ended up settling.

> and now here you are, cherry-picking quotes to try and make an argument. Very alpha of you.

You're a moron. I'm done here.
