Commonly, you would say weeks when months wouldn't apply, otherwise it would be misleading if not plain wrong. Usually. (such rules aren't set in stone, allowing humor to exist for instance ("I had a child" "Aw! A boy or a girl?" "Yes"); context matters)

Mathematically true isn't sufficient (and possibly sometimes not even relevant), "weeks ago" bears more meaning in common language than "there exists N such that N > 2 and N weeks passed".

So you were born that many weeks ago, but not really weeks ago.

What matters is how things are understood and it's not usually the interpretation of a formal version of the text (or it is, but a complex one that depends on the mood, the culture and the knowledge of the recipient, their understanding of the author, possibly on other factors as well, that most likely doesn't quite match a naive formal translation)
The hook of the article leaves unanswered the question of why Steve Jobs made a big deal out of the backs of cabinets. The answer is that Steve Jobs knew how to sell luxury items to people who identified themselves with the quality of their work, whether they were accomplished creative professionals or cube-dwelling (now coworking) "knowledge workers" or MBAs who take sommelier classes or aspiring writers grinding on their novels at Starbucks. It was partly about the experience of using an Apple product, but it was just as much, if not more, about vicariously identifying with the standards of craftsmanship. If it was only about the experience, and the craftsmanship was a means to the experience, then the backs of the cabinets would not have mattered. They mattered because the craftsmanship was not just a means but was fetishized for its own sake.
I thought so too! My first impression was along the lines of “fitting” all the creativity, photography, art, etc, into a super slim profile.

Idk how it all got so out of hand and making it all seem about ‘destroying’ the good stuff or what not.

I would wager that Apple products are the majority of audio, video and photography producing and/or editing machines.

Seems silly how out of proportion this all went out to be. Even after hearing all this negativity, I can’t see it as a(n) un/intentional portrayal of destroying all the arts..
I've reached out to a few hiring managers and recruiters and let them know I gave up on applying for their job because their software failed to parse my resume containing 20+ years of experience.

Competition gives us that in the best possible way. However, telecom lobbyists have successfully manipulated lawmakers/regulators to lock out competition.

Me, before competition: Last year ago I had 1 choice of ISP. I could pay $119/mo for 40Mb upload with 40ms latency to the IX.

Last fall, a fiber provider trenched lines here.

This year I have a choice of 8 fiber ISPs. I can pay $59/mo for 1Gb upload with 4ms latency to the IX. I can pay $79/mo for 2Gb or $199 for 8Gb.

A lot more of the US could have this choice if lawmakers didn't allow telecoms to write laws and decide regulation (after funding elections).

In many cases, taxpayers even paid for modern networks which the ISPs never delivered (generally w/o consequences).
The 1977 Hobbit has its issues, but having watched it recently I feel like it does well with capturing the vibe of the book, especially the first half (it does really fall apart later). I personally find Peter Jackson's version of the Hobbit unwatchable for the same reason... he takes the LOTR vibe and imposes it onto a much more innocent story.
I haven't used an Apple product in some time, but to me it always felt like their software was the unfinished rear.

If someone uses the shared server too heavily, they will need to move to a dedicated server.
For any mission critical use case, the dedicated server is superior.

The shared server has 72 CPU cores so it can handle a reasonable amount of parallel activity.
You'll likely get downvoted for this, but I do agree. As a European it is just inconceivable that such a thing is even necessary.
Finally it seems like the GA (Global Availability) of Kong Konnect has come! Check out the new features in this amazing article.

It seems like a great thing that is coming and I will definitely investigate that.
Our profession doesn't always work the way you describe. Some companies want cogs, some want professionals.

I can't give you advice beyond that, there are too many different circumstances. But in most of the places I've worked, it's been developers, not managers, cutting corners. Sometimes these are good choices, informed by product context and trade-offs. Sometimes it's a perceived urgency that doesn't actually exist. But it's almost never a micromanaging boss asking for something specific.

The thing that I like about the Hobbit 77 film is that it realizes the material is a child's fantasy book. It's a breath of fresh air in a our current era -- where VCs seem to understand that any attempt to profit off of the American taxpayer's defense spending requires some Tolkien reference in the company name.

The existence of the '77 animated adaptation is our last reminder that the Generals green-lighting all this spend are literally mid-witted man-children.
Language is very important. Bad code in python is at least still python. Bad code in lisp can be an inpenetrable eldritch abomination where the only option is to rewrite from scratch.

There's evidence that biology takes advantage of quantum effects on all levels - all the way from individual chemical bonds and interactions of molecules (quantum biochemistry) up to cellular and multi-cellular. Mostly because there's no way it could work on such small scales and be so energy efficient if it didn't.

So one thing is certain - the brain does use quantum mechanics just like the rest of the body, because otherwise it wouldn't be possible to have so much done inside such a small volume, with such small amounts of energy.

Of course this question is actually meant to be "is brain a quantum computer?" and we don't have any idea.
"New evidence" doesn't mean "nobody has ever had this idea before". It means exactly what it said - there is new evidence in support of it.

Yah. Article’s advice about “owning the implementation” is great and all, but limited to places where you’re not blocked from or fired for doing it.

Notably, from my small sample size (only small startups) - I don’t think I’ve known anyone who was fired for doing it. So it seems like it’s not a thing we can do… but I bet it’s something we can do in a lot more situations than we think.

There is certainly a a balance to be struck. Are the code smells a structural issue in a piece of software that's supposed to be used and modified for a long time? Then those code smells endanger delivering the service in a medium term and should be addressed.

But are we talking about a one-time migration script or a fad mobile app? Then who cares, the service will be delivered regardless of the quality of the code.

Why would anyone think that the average entrepreneur or even early startup person would be able to seamlessly transition back and forth between the entrepreneurial and big corporate worlds, at least at the lower levels relevant here. It's a different mindset and skillset. And it works both ways, you'd expect startups to be biased against salarymen.

Which is why "biological life" doesn't make sense in space in the first place. It's just so inefficient and unfit for purpose.

But mentioning Scandinavian seems savvy. If they hadn't said they were Scandinavian, I would've assumed the startup was totally full of poo, because many of the signs thus far look like stereotypical US techbro sociopathy.

What about knot tying? I, and a lot of people I work with are big fans.

They are ancient, but still the preferred method of doing many practical things. That's really something special.

Everyone, myself included, seems to love the ambiance of real candlelight, but for basic, utilitarian stuff like finding my keys in the dark or making a snack in a power outage, I'd rather use an LED.

If I want to hang something I'm just going to tie a knot, and I won't be annoyed at all that I don't have some fancy piece of hardware(Not that I'm against such things for hyper specialized applications or to help people with disabilities).

I've heard of "After Virtue" but I wasn't familiar with its argument. From a brief skim of the Wikipedia article, it appears aligned in the direction I've been meandering for the last couple of years (in subject and reference at least, perhaps not its conclusions). Specifically, Aristotelian virtue ethics is a subject that is high on my list to more deeply investigate. I got about half way through Nicomachean Ethics a couple of years ago before setting it aside and moving on to other subjects. Even the sketch of his critique of Nietzsche seems to resonate with my own recent thoughts.

Probably with similar techniques. If you can spin a round thing against the same spot to make a hole you can certainly use the same materials and rub them in a straight line or along a curve. Hand woodworking involves painstakingly rubbing a little material off the work and then checking it, or shaving it off or cutting it off depending on where you are in the process. And you can also strike a soft metal against the stone to chip out a rough area before finishing and polishing. Inferior tools just have to be sharpened more often is all
I think this deserves some expansion.

In receiving flowers, the value the recipient gets is not so much the flowers themselves, but by what the gift betrays about your mind state. This authentic information about your mind state is what makes the act “real”.

So it is reasonable to consider the act less real or even a bit deceptive if the mind state that you’d first expect the act to imply (they care about me and thought to get flowers) does not reflect your true mind state (they cared about me enough at some point in the past to set up this app).

Right, so the whole "just add bike lanes" thing is said to get the general idea across, it's not an A to Z solution.

First off, the starting point matters. As you show with your example, trying these ideas in US cities is... hard to say the least. There is way too much cultural momentum behind car infrastructure.

As for the low bike lane usage you noticed, a lot of factors are involved.

1. You say "bike lane", is that a lane on the road, in effect shared with cars? Forget about high usage. The key is to get as much physical separation from traffic as possible. An easy rule of thumb is: would you let your 12-yo kid travel on said lanes on their own? If not, there's your answer. The paths must feel safe to people other than 20-40 y/o able-bodied males.

2. Once your paths are nice and separated, consider that the number of paths, how connected they are, and where they lead to all matter. A single path from nowhere to nowhere will not be used. 200 miles of paths can mean a strong network or 200 1 mile long disjoint paths.

3. You need the law to prioritize cyclists (and pedestrians for that matter). See another user's post on how the law is in the Netherlands: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29878551. The bare minimum would be giving cyclists on cycling paths the right of way at intersections.

4. The rest of infrastructure, especially intersections, must be built with cyclists in mind. The Netherlands is again king at this, e.g. https://youtu.be/g0F_hTGYa0Y?t=712. The difference between the thought Dutch traffic engineers put into designing for cyclists and the US engineers should be evident. At the very least, the bike path asphalt should be colored differently at intersections.

5. It takes time, especially somewhere as car-centric as the US. You can't expect people to switch to biking overnight.

6. Car-centric design stretches cities out, lowering density. Cycling and walking have limited range, so the average US city is going to inherently get lower cycling uptake.

More often than not, you have n > 1 implementation solutions possibles. The article said to factor the constraints into the choice of solutions, not the solution itself.

Like if it would take 6 months to implement a backend, but just 1 month with Firebase, and time is a more important than data ownership, you go with Firebase. Then you prepare a plan if you ever need to migrate off Firebase. If you don't have time to do a custom UI, you go with a components library. That also means knowing the range of possible solutions (aka mastery). If nothing else, you reduce scope.

There's a plethora of ways to respect time/monetary constraints without resorting to shoddy code and duck taping.
