To your second point, I alway go back to this quote: "You can't fix by analysis what you bungled by design" (Light, Singer and Willett, 1990).

If a paper is broken by design, there isn't much to do after the fact. It's just broken.

The problem is that doing a good RCT takes both time and effort, with the huge risk of having null results, which usually results in a desk rejection from most top journals.

So, you either are a top-fund raising researcher who can both fund multiple RCTs and people to support them, or you just try your best with what you have and hope to squeeze a paper out from you did.

Releasing the data won't really help much if the data generating process is flawed. Sure, other people will be able to run different kind of analyses (e.g., jackknife your standard errors instead of just using a robust correction), but I'm not sure how helpful that will be.

A third issue that I have also encountered is that journal editors have an agenda when putting together an issue, which sometimes overwrites the "quality' of the research with "fit" to the issue. This could lead to "lower quality" articles to be published because they fit the (often unspoken) direction of the journal. Most editors see their role as steering the field towards new directions (a sort of a meta service to the field) and sometimes that comes at the expense of the quality of the work.
Hiding in Jetpack Compose (Google's modern UI framework built for Android) is an incredible MVCC-based state management system that solves several problems at once:

1. Concurrent modifications: Variables wrapped in the State interface are automatically snapshotted, and readers see the most recent snapshot.

2. Observability: State reads are recorded since the last snapshot, which invalidates the Composable functions that contain the read, triggering a refresh of the UI.

3. Consistency: Because you're operating on snapshots, you don't need to wrap all mutable state in an immutable sum type; all changes are consistent with each other within a snapshot. So you can fearlessly keep state as a disconnected set of mutable variables and write naïve UI code without the boilerplate that comes with encoding state machines (or state charts).

I understand that React and SwiftUI are similar to an extent, but this feels better because it's actually completely disconnected from Compose-the-UI-framework. I would love the snapshot system to be ported to other environments.
I'm always amazed by Marijn's brilliance (Author of Lezer, CodeMirror and the awesome ProseMirror toolkit)

The level of depth he dives into to perfect his projects is insane. For example, lezer is a parser generator( which by itself is not a trivial feat with novel
ideas like incremental computations applied to parsing) to power his mainstream project which is CodeMirror.

Like this Prosemirror too has some insane levels of engineering underneath married with thoughtful architectural decisions.

Apparently, a big fan of his works.
No toilet paper shortages when you’ve got a bidet.
Not a dev, but in healthcare. Burnout is everywhere. “Physician wellness is key for a happy physician” but in the decade of practicing medicine, I’ve learned that this phrase is nothing but words out of people’s mouths when you are interviewing. No one cares more about your wellbeing or mental health than you. Like you said, corps will try to squeeze every last penny out of you.

Key to burnout to me, in my opinion, is follow your gut. My first job out of training was in primary care at one of the many clinics of a local health corp (advertised as a local small town nonprofit hospital) but CEO ran it like a for-profit, going so far that he stated in one meeting that he plans to run the hospital and primary clinics like “Chick-fil-A”. Healthcare isn’t a combo meal and has to be tailored to the individual. That solidified my plans to leave once my contract and noncompete was up. They kept increasing my patient numbers despite me telling them I want to do more quality work and not quantity like others in the surrounding clinics. Those complaints landed on deaf ears. I left after feeling burnout for 2 years. I was stuck legally/contractually. Worst acid reflux I ever had that led to ulcers in the end. I entered this field to help people and not see patients as dollar signs. After I left, I was told by the CEO and his Admin buddies that I wasn’t worthwhile to hold on to because I didn’t see 25-30 patients a day. I was a “loss leader in primary care”. My goals since grad school were to provide quality work and spending my time with said patients when they needed it most. Their goals were pure volume and more money and not so much in the actual health care.

I jumped from job to job 3 times until I found my place with a company that semi/mostly-aligns with most of my goals. I’m in hospital medicine now with a side gig of concierge medicine. It’s not perfect but my mental health is exponentially better since I moved on. No amount of money or possibility of accumulating generational wealth is worth it in my opinion like some of the comments about being in a FAANG job. Being able to live a comfortable lifestyle and have time for my wife and two kids is what I care about most and with my current job I’m able to do quality work and still have an amazing amount of time with my family compared to the previous jobs.

Sorry this is a bit of a rant. TLDR
We all burn out at some point. Up to you to take care of yourself and find you niche so you live happy and comfortably. No perfect job out there but keep searching until you find one that doesn’t cause you stomach ulcers and aligns with what your goals are as a dev. Life is truly short.
Luck favors the prepared and all that.

But leaving aside starting points, etc. I can still think of two specific points in my career that had a pretty much seamless transition that could have gone very badly (and did for a number of co-workers). Yes, I had the network, but they were generally fairly precarious times and things came together very quickly.
I'm Italian and my female friends always complained a lot about the lack of bidets in other countries saying: "do local women shower many times a day when they have their period or how they cope?"
No need for hot water, cold water bidets are fine and common.

It's legitimately disgusting that bidets aren't common America. Such unsanity bathroom practices.
> I would never have reached the point of ability that I did reach

I think you're conflating skill and ability with impact and expectations.

Early on in your life, your expectations could have been to gain tremendous skill and grow your abilities. You probably didn't care that much if your work went into the trash because in the process, you learned some extremely important and valuable skills. That journey itself made it all worth it and met your expectations.

Over time, as you become more skillful and able, your expectations could change to seeing your work having real impact on the world instead.

This is perhaps, to you, now there's marginal return on being even more skillful and able. You ask "what's the end goal and did I reach it?"

> risk being disappointed once more. Maybe this time, you will be able to recognize it before it's "too late". I don't know

I mentioned in my own comment, the root cause of burnout - be it coding or otherwise, is when expectations don't match reality.

If you're a developer, your impact and outcome is beholden to management, so even through you might not realize it, part of your jobsearch now has to focus on ensuring you detect great management - and you make it a part of your interview to locate them.

The real solution to not being burned out: work with a team that actually knows what they are doing and have strong fundamentals.
Not OP but for some stuff I only get on paper, so I need to scan I've simply have a rough "import" semi-automated workflow:

- scan to an image/as many as needed

- mogrify -deskew 90%

- for i in .png; do; convert $i ${i/ng/df}; rm $i; done

- pdftk cat output aname.pdf

- ocrmypdf --force-ocr -c -i (wrap tesseract and others)

I normally get a good enough scan. If it's not the case I might manually edit images than feed to the rest of the pipeline. Gimp G'Mic QT Repair Scanned Document filter works IME far better than unpaper and others, but it's not that automatic, need to be tuned case by case. However that's rare.

For notes, personally I go for time-based notes, similar to ZK but with the time-constraint, I've described the system in this page.
Big fan of the "bum gun" style bidet. Ime, much more control and water pressure compared to what I've used in Japan. I was in Thailand recently and bought a few for use in the states. Use of anything less just doesn't feel sanitary.
If you buy shares for $100 and they increase to $200 without paying you a dividend, you've still made $100. If you prefer to have $100 in shares and $100 in cash rather than $200 in shares, you can sell half of your shares.
I like the sound of that last bit. But I honestly thought they were just a software outfit, putting pieces together, are they really providing this extra stuff? It sounds like a huge amount of work in itself.

Toilet paper is sign of a developed country /sarcasm
In the US they're popular among the rich who can afford houses.

Everyone who doesn't have $5 million to afford a house has to use a normal toilet.

If you live in the US, I challenge you to find 10 renters in your area that have a bidet or whose landlord actually gives a shit (ha ha) about their tenants' bum health.
Not American but I can't stand using the toilet in places which don't have bidets. I feel disgusting and it ruins my day completely. I'd rather be uncomfortable and wait til I'm home or not go out.
One of my profs once remarked, "All of science is done on a volunteer basis." He was talking about peer review, which--as crucial as it is--is not something you get paid for.

Writing a review--a good review--is 1) hard work, 2) can only be done by somebody who has spent years in postgraduate study, and 3) takes up a lot of time, which has many other demands on it.

The solution? Its obvious. In a free market, how do you signal if you want more of something to be produced? Bueller? Bueller?

Yeah, that's right, you gotta pay for it. This cost should just be estimated and factored into the original grant proposals--if its not worth $5k or $10k to fund a round of peer review, and perhaps also funds to run confirming experiments--well, then its probably not research worth doing in the first place.

So yeah, write up the grants to include the actual full cost of doing and publishing the research. It would be a great way for starving grad students to earn some coin, and the experience gained in running confirming experiments would be invaluable to help them get that R.A. position or postdoc.
I'd assume legacy support isn't there for IPv6. At least for our environments, it wasn't feasible.

I don't get burn out from work in the way some people describe. I never get stressed out about deadlines or expectations or pressure from management.

I do my work during my work hours, and if I don't get it done I don't get it done. If work expects more from me, oh well. So far in 20 years I haven't been fired for it.

There have been a few times where I had trouble getting motivation because it felt like my work wasn't important or mattered, but that just made me slow, not burnt out.

>Also, you say "pretty inelastic" - you seem to be accepting that food demand is elastic, just less so than other goods.

Sure, it's not as inelastic as gas for Americans. America has enough free/cheap ways to eat if it really really came down to it so they can't pull an insulin. Still, I'd put it pretty high.

>Unsurprisingly, it turns out it depends what type of food articl

I figured, but that would imply that premium or convinent food caused the price spikes. Maybe it did, but I'm not so confident given how and what the government subsidizes (another reason you can't just price hike goods willy nilly. Subsidies are so you can pass on low prices to customers, not so you can pocket more money).
Good luck getting law enforcement to care about you getting your stuff stolen.
You don't need hot water because the biden will heat the water, however you need a power plug. That's the biggest issue I think.

Or you can use a bidet with cold water, but good luck using that in winter when the water comes out at 10C.
That's different though: Presumably WhatsApp is participating in these deals and is making their traffic explicitly identifiable (i.e. I'd expect them to provide a list of all IP addresses and hostnames their app connects to as part of setting up whatever cost sharing agreement they presumably have in the background).

Telegram will probably be optimizing for the opposite.
> Burnout is your brain giving up because it doesn’t think the benefit is worth the effort anymore. If you don’t have a purpose for what you are doing all your brain will do is obsess over the negatives. Every job in the world has massive negatives. You have to find a positive purpose for what you are doing to balance the negative.

This is spot on and was exactly my experience at my last job.

The one thing I'll add is that for me it wasn't about not having a purpose, it was about not feeling appreciated for all of the time/effort/energy I'd poured into that purpose.

This guy was my professor at Cal. He has pretty bad self awareness, but he's absolutely not wrong.

Both genders behave entitled and get an inflated sense of self worth when the gender ratio in the dating market favors them significantly.

If you have lived and dated in different places, it is 10,000% true that women in the Bay Area behave on average differently (to put it kindly) than women in say NYC or a Midwest town.

You can't just call people's experience misogyny if it you don't like it. This isn't misogyny, it's just straight up fact that nearly every guy in the Bay has experienced.
I'm sure a warm bidet would be more pleasant, but as an American with a bolt-on solution that simply pipes water in from the tank-fill line, a cold one is completely fine. Does the job a-okay and maybe I'd feel differently if I grew up in a first-world country with a heated one being the norm, but I dunno. I still miss it like hell when on business trips.

Japanese bath areas are 99% of the time separate from toilets. And the Toto models don't require a hot water line. Yet its pretty common to have heated jet functions. These models allow these features. Its more to do with economics of widespread availability.

Bidet seats do not need a hot water line, but they do need a GFCI protected electrical outlet within 3' or so.

They have self contained water heaters, seat heaters, drying air heaters, and ozone based deodorizers. They pre-mist the bowl sides when your first sit down to help keep the bowl clean. It's a pretty magnificent device. It's 25% of the way through the 21'st century, and I may not have a flying car just yet, but at least I have a robot to care for my tushy.

Prior to installing bidet seats throughout the house, we had handheld bidets that were attached to the cold water line. It's really never immanentized a "religious experience" so far as I have noted, and while the heated one is certainly more pleasant, a cold water bidet seems to function pretty well for hundreds of millions of people around the world.
I’ve been renting since 2019 and I’ve had a bidet since 2020. When I moved I took the bidet with me. It’s a cheap one that get installed under the toilet seat, but definitely gets the job done.
Not really? They're a French invention, Japan and Korea have been using them for ages, and they are fairly popular in Western Europe. All of the above are highly developed.

You're welcome for the feedback. I saw the epub import and thought it was novel, but as you said, I don't know of anywhere to buy modern fiction in epub. If you know of legal sellers and linked to them from the site, that would probably be enough for me as a customer.

That said, I'd gladly pay you/the site to handle that for me (by paying more than the book's retail price). Hopefully the translation would also be better than anything I imported.

It isn't clear, but it seems like investigators are saying "Give us a list of all IPs that watched these 8 youtube videos on this day". Considering all of the videos have 30,000 views total, if the videos were independent in some manner(ie not by the same creator, or recommended one after the other), the odds seem really low that more than 1 person watched all of them.

This seems in line with other types of legal subpoenas - I can't recall the exact situation, but after a string of bank robberies across a state, police subpoenaed cell tower records for cell phones that had pinged towers near each bank while it was being robbed, and that quickly led them to the robbers.

edit: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/08/how-cell-tower-d...

Turns out the cops got all the cell tower records for 4 rural robberies, and did the intersection themselves, but I don't know why the phone co couldn't do that.

> a high-performing individual contributor who “lacks” an eye for the bigger picture, because I show little interest in the business side of things

If focusing on engineering, technical, programming, and math problems is really what excites you and you truly have no interest in the business side of things, you should start looking for companies that will only want you to focus on engineering, technical, programming, and math problems and there are a lot of them out there.

If your current place of work complains you “lack” an eye for the bigger picture, and that might be true, that means they dont have good management at all, because a good manager would immediately understand what you value and align you with that or ask you to leave explictly if that's not what they wanted.

Bad management takes no initiative and lack critical decision making skills, stay away.
