It’s not necessary to debate all things all of the time. My point isn’t whether Israel is an apartheid state (if you’d like to start that complex discussion join a thread and you’ll be more likely to find people to discuss with you).

My point is that just because you feel strongly about something doesn’t make it true. And interjecting your “truth” into unnecessary places is counterproductive in that it doesn’t convince people of your claim.

2 small pieces of anecdotes

1) I used to work in a very large IT group in Latin America, and I worked with some EngManagers who hired and managed some folks in Argentina. One interesting dynamic was due to the inflation, we used to give to folks 'monthly' salary increases to offset. Since the company captured the inflation also in the prices, for a long time offer that offset with a small plus was a very huge retention factor for us;

2) After 2015/6, our IT director started to give 1 Bitcoin or USD 500 equivalent in Bitcoin for our argentine colleagues as part of their monthly salary, and eventually those guys ended up holding or selling it with more than 10x over it.
> "Previously, we have not had a detailed enough measurement tool for use in both the field of practice and research that identifies workers who are at risk of burnout," says psychologist Leon De Beer, from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

Have they never heard of the Maslach Burnout Inventory? The MBI measures burnout as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and in the ICD-11.

It has been around for 35 years, and it is considered the gold standard for measuring burnout.

More details here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6194874/

Edit: Indeed, they have heard of the MBI. It is mentioned in the paper itself: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/sjop.12996

In fact, one of the key hypotheses they explore is how their BAT compares to the MBI. So why in the world would its lead author be saying that it's the first of its kind?
Yes, git "recreates" the patches when you view a diff.

But git can't decide that these two patches are independent of each other and thus their order does not matter so it'll give you a merge conflict where pijul doesn't.

You can losslessly convert between the two models, but you can't efficiently apply patch theory (commutation etc) to a bunch of snapshots.
you are incorrectly conflating socialism with peronism, which is more fascist than socialist, though it certainly has socialist factions within it
That the opposite premise is the propaganda of activist groups means its better?

Both sides of this argument are flooded with propaganda to the point that it has destroyed the possibility of doing real science in the field.

People didn't really need smartphones, laptops and even personal cars in 1960s in Argentine. I believe they generated that GDP while being mostly rural, where it translates to a lot of amenities.

Now they would usually be cramped in a city where the effective cost of living is much greater (leading to villas), whereas their GDP and thus income didn't grow much.

Most of my technical note-taking these days happens inside VS Code.

No fly zones are enforced on a country by shooting down military aircraft. It sounds alluring, as it’s not called a war or invasion. But in order to do that you first have to make it safe for your own military jets by using cruise missiles on air defense systems, airbases, command posts, telecommunication hubs, etc. It’s inseparable from starting a war. A sovereign state exercises control over their territory. To deny them the ability to use forces in their own territory you have to engage in acts of war.

As seen in Libya our governments proceeded to expand their mission from the UN mandate to regime change. Obama danced around the War Powers Act and the bad optics of starting a war by calling it a “kinetic military action” lol.

Not just based off, but in some cases blatant ripoffs. Shakespeare was famous for swiping the plots of Italian plays. Ever notice how many of his plays are set in Italy? This was before "remix" was a word.

Shakespeare's specialty was writing clever dialog (and to give credit where it's due, he was very, very good at that), not coming up with totally original plays.

If copyright as we know it had existed in Shakespeare's time, he would have been sued into a smoking crater.

"700k brazilians died to COVID, we now have a huge anti-vax problem"

That sounds like a common world problem, not anything specifically Brazilian. In my country of 11 million (including Ukrainian refugees), we've had 45 thousand deaths. And anywhere where people frequent Facebook, the anti-vax movement thrives. It is not even specifically far-right, a lot of the crowd belongs to the organic green bio-mom milieu. I can't even begin to count all the middle-aged ladies in colourful ethnic clothing who hate vaccines based on very flimsy arguments.

I mean, that's true from a business perspective.

But they were trying very hard to make the next process node work. They went from a process upgrade every other design generation (the famous "tick-tock") to just tock-ing at 10nm because they couldn't get the next process generation working.

That was very much an engineering problem.

As a person who tends to write very detailed responses and can churn out long essays quickly, one thing I’ve learned is how important it is to precede the essay with a terse summary.

“BLUF”, or “bottom line up front”. Similar to a TL;DR.

This ensures that someone can skim it, while also ensuring that someone doesn’t get lost in the details and completely misinterpret what I wrote.

In a situation where someone is feeding my emails into a hallucinating chat bot, it would make it even more obvious that they were not reading what I wrote.

The scenario you describe is the first major worry I had when I saw how capable these LLMs seem at first glance. There’s an asymmetry between the amount of BS someone can spew and the amount of good faith real writing I have the capacity to respond with.

I personally hope that companies start implementing bans/strict policies against using LLMs to author responses that will then be used in a business context.

Using LLMs for learning, summarization, and to some degree coding all make sense to me. But the purpose of email or chat is to align two or more human brains. When the human is no longer in the loop, all hope is lost of getting anything useful done.

> Nah, that's not the right answer. It puts focus on the product rather than the founders. You do NOT need PMF to get 1-5 sales. If you can't even get there, it's bigger problems. PMF is needed to turn 2k MRR into 50k MRR.

It really depends on the product/market. I've worked in a startup with a competent founder who was great at sales, and which nevertheless, after 2 years, went bankrupt without making a single sale. Our product was targeting enterprises in a specific niche - there were perhaps 10-20 or so potential customers worldwide. Making even a single sale would've been huge.

I disagree with the first statement for some industries. My industry has several companies that have amongst the hardest MILP problems in the world that have millions of variables and constraints and need to be globally optimal for the sake of fairness and to save many millions of dollars per year. Electricity markets are extremely complicated and although it would be amazing to simplify things, the decisions and prices need to be correct. Also, performance is critical as these auctions are running 24/7. They're also always being changed as well, so black-box globally optimal solutions are a need to have.

One day, the company that owned my apartment sent me a bill out of the blue for a strange amount of money, something like $63.12. After much head scratching, I realized that it was roughly equal to my monthly rent divided by 30.

Someone must have made a new spreadsheet because they insisted I owed them for one extra day of rent. I pulled out my copy of the contract, which required one check per month of exactly the same amount.

They said my contract was "wrong" and I entered full WTF mode. Offered them an advance of one day's rent that I'd deduct from the final rent check. Eventually they tired of me and "credited" me the amount in question instead of fixing their spreadsheet.
Man, this horse has been dead for decades. Stop flogging it.

Male and female brains differ, subtly but robustly and testably, along a variety of axes. The notion that these differences might be down to socialization was never motivated by science, but rather by the fear that such differences justified sexism. This is 60s era, second wave feminism politics and it's been roundly debunked again and again and again (look up David Reimer for a particularly gruesome case study). It's 2024 - can we please accept as a society that people can be different without being superior or inferior, and move on?

I've been there in 2011. Wonderful place. At the time Brazil was recovering from the 2008 crises, which was very light for us, and our economy was probably at its top. I had my first job as a programmer and was very well payed compared to locals. I saved all the money to travel there and pay all expenses for me and my girlfriend in about just 4 months; that's how strongly we were economically. At the time 1 Brazilian real was worth 2 Argentinian pesos and 1 USD was worth less than 2 BRL.

At the time, Cristina Kirchner had just won elections and BsAs was full of her posters. Being there at the time felt like being in Europe HDI with south american prices; it was that good and cheap. Cities were beautiful, clean, organized, I spent some time in La Plata which seemed designed in simcity, felt much safer than Brazil and although there were already some signs of decadence like some poor people around, it still looked much better than Brazil.

Around 2014 Argentina had already entered in crises, and so did Brazil. At my job, a new colleague was from Argentina. I think he was a level-headed liberal, he sometimes talked about something like how the situation there was. By that time, 1 BRL was worth around 4 pesos and 1 USD was worth 2.35 BRL.

Two years ago (2022) I talked with a friend. I explained him how in 2011 I could save all the money to travel Argetina in just 4 months, I couldn't do the same now even if I get twice the salary I had at the time: our prices increased a lot and even though at the time 1 BRL was worth more than 30 pesos!

Now, here we are in 2024: 1 BRL is worth around 170 pesos, 1 USD is close to 5 BRL. The article says: "We were mostly left with the impression that it wouldn’t be so bad to turn into Argentina after all.", " I felt safer in most places than I do anywhere in Brazil", "I had an incredible time in Argentina. The country is absolutely stunning, and the people are also fantastic.". Actually it is not Brazil who may turn into Argentina, but Argentina which is turning into Brazil after a long effort to keep social indexes high... artificially or not.

We in Brazil also had our own hyper-inflation period. It happened during the 80's. Prices were so volatile that my father bought things and wrote in boxes what the price was in liters of gasoline, so he could have an idea of how much it had really cost. We took a long time to reach stability, from the 90's to early 2000's, but we got there and I hope Argentina will be able to do the same.

Although Brazil and Argentina are seen as rivals, I really love that country and people and wish them the best.

That's the problem though. It's completely understandable to vote against that. But to have one option to the status quo, and that option is this?

It's basically like you have lived beyond your means for a long while and you live in a too big house and the sensible solution might be to get another job, sell the car and move to a smaller place. But see that choice doesn't exist. Your choice is to keep aggregating debt, OR you burn the house down and live in a tent.

The problem with very bitter medicine like this is that it risks swinging back the other way just as fast when people become angry enough.

This also came out the same day that Ukraine officially withdrew from Avdiivka and a day before the US vetoed a ceasefire in Gaza (and completely buried those stories).

At the same time though, Russia definitely is not reacting to this the way an innocent party would. So even though Navalny's death mostly benefits the West, incomprehensibly it does look like Putin's doing.
I visited the Soviet Union right at the tail end, and it sounds similar. Official exchange rate (4 rubles to the dollar), street exchange rate (12+ rubles), a mix of shops and restaurants taking dollars unofficially, and people were generally ... fine with it? The economy obviously wasn't working, but everyone was housed, fed and clothed.
From your reference, it is clearly focused on those engaged in *research* using decades old data:

The main source of data on US scientists and engineers is the restricted-use 1993–2010 Survey of Doctorate Recipients (SDR) of the National Science Foundation (NSF), a typically biannual longitudinal sample survey of the population with a research doctorate in science, engineering, or health, earned in the United States

According to the 2019 US census, less than a third (28%) of all STEM trained workers age 25-64 were actually employed doing STEM. About a quarter of those with STEM jobs were not native citizens (see reference below). So if my math is correct, just over 20% of native US citizens trained in STEM were actually doing STEM in 2019.

And the numbers are probably even worse now. Over 100K people at tech companies lost their jobs in 2022, over 250K in 2023 and more this year.

All this is nothing new and it is upside down compared to many (if not most) other "professionals". In my time as a tech wage slave, I personally witnessed thousands of people like me lose their jobs --- all while corporations complained about the lack of tech workers and undermined wages by importing cheap foreigner labor.

The message should be clear --- the only real shortage is for young, naive, *low paid* STEM workers. If you are lucky enough to have a STEM job --- time and statistics are not on your side. You will most likely be joining the 80% of just like you do not. Ignore this at your own peril.

Companies don't really "buy" companies. That's just a mental model for a merger.
At its heart, it's a symmetric operation. The wealth of both companies gets divided among the owners of both companies, in proportion to an agreed valuation. You could say that Vizio is buying Wal-Mart. Either way, the combined management forms an agreement on who will be on the board and management roles after the merger, and what branding to use going forward.
The most developed countries should show us an example then. I am not Argentinian or from South America at all, but we have the same problems. As long as an average American keeps their consumption levels at more than 10× of ours, I am not listening to what they think we should or shouldn't do. Same for other poor countries, I guess.
