That's true, but a codebase without unit tests is apt to be deemed poor quality by professionals due to the time factor. Being able to release fast is an important quality of business software.

Humbling moments were a recurring theme in my first 10 years of employment. I was hired out of college with an Environmental Science degree to run the computer systems of a software startup. I was a computer hobbyist to be sure but had no formal training. My only other qualification was that I was willing to work for almost literal peanuts. I stuck with that company for 5 years because they were willing to let me figure things out on the fly, since that's what everyone else was doing too. I had to teach myself networking, then TCP-IP, frame relay, T1, ISDN and provided both internal and external customer support. I worked with beta versions of Windows NT and MacOS, and even had a close call with AS-400.

When it became clear that the company did not have a bright future I took all my skills over to a local brokerage that had just had an internal IT meltdown. It was like starting all over again on day one of my first job.

My most humbling moment turns out to have been political. At the brokerage I was asked if I wanted to be the IT Manager. I declined because I didn't feel I had the experience. This planted the seeds of my departure 5 years later as the hack they brought into the department felt increasingly threatened by my success and skills. You can't ignore office politics.

The second moment was more of a huge missed opportunity. One of the board members of the startup found out I was leaving and offered me a role at his other company. Honestly I didn't realize at the time what a compliment that actually was. I would have been one of the earliest hires of a major firm that is still going strong decades later. I learned to not conflate "niceness" with business acumen. This person had his own money on the line at our startup and had every right to press people on their success or lack thereof. I just thought he was a jerk at the time.

> The boffins suggest that the attack could be carried out with drones, which serve to "hide" a secondary vehicle from the victim AV by projecting or carrying the adversarial object.

It's an interesting topic to explore, but for practicality I feel as though at the point where you're flying a drone (carrying an object specifically designed for the car's sensor system) between the autonomous vehicle and a vehicle you want to hide in hopes of causing a crash, you've already passed up countless simpler and less conspicuous opportunities to cause problems.

The metric system seems like a similar analog to geometric algebra vs vector calculus. You are saying the same thing but the language you are using is much more internally consistent.

Adoption has been bumpy given the US resistance but I think in the long run it (or something even more consistent) will win out. Similarly I think geometric algebra will be adopted. Maybe not in our lifetimes but eventually.
You're asking a large number of people to substantially reduce their standards of living. Think of the sheer amount of energy required daily in even a "sustainable" lifestyle in a modern developed economy.

And then of course there are the powerful financial incentives to not care about sustainability at all, or what's worse to spend more energy than before on products that are meant to seem sustainable (but aren't), because actual sustainable practices aren't good business on the scale of shareholder lifetimes.

Maybe it should happen, but it's a long uphill battle.
I think this is just as useful as nihilism except nihilism has the advantage of being more honest and simpler. People seek meaning in life almost precisely to reduce their freedom to act or not act or to think or not think. Meaning is a constraint on possible action and the desire for meaning is a desire to have that constraint imposed on us by external standards of behavior and thought, by god, by reason, whatever. You can't choose this kind of meaning because you can always choose it differently from one moment to the next. Neither is such a definition of meaning useful for intermediating between human beings in conflict.

I don't see the point of answering the question this way.

These are related. If you have this material, you obtained it from somewhere even if you didn't make it yourself. Some police work and it may lead to some dark web exchange marketplace and actual producers.

Personal feelings about gate keeping aside, it’s better to have a name for a thing that’s in common use than to make up your own and confuse everyone.

You don’t have to be a gatekeeping, academic elitist to understand how to use a monad. I use them every day at work and I program on my stream where I’m using them all the time.

What’s nice about it is that if I want to go on that journey and learn more about monads so that I can build my own abstractions upon them I can go right to the source definitions.

I don’t have to go look up what a BurritoWrapper is and all of the methods designed for it that only work with whatever the author designed them for. Once I know I have a monad I know how to use it.

In the early 90's I was visiting an industrial plant that had, in one building, a giant dehumidifier that was necessary for their process. My field work took me to the roof of that building. Unrelated to what I was working on, I saw an air conditioner on the roof whose condensate line had become disconnected. Instead of the condensate flowing through a PVC pipe and into a drain at the edge of the building, the condensate was pooling on the roof in a broad shallow pond. Being a good guy, I tapped the PVC pipe back together the get the water flowing like it should have been.

The next morning I went back into the dehumidifier building and saw that it was raining inside the building. People were moving around in a very agitated state. In a panic, I ran up the stairs to the roof and kicked apart the PVC pipe that I had joined the day before. Water began to stream out, but I got away from there fast and went back downstairs. A few minutes later, a member of the maintenance crew came in. He looked at the rain and immediately dashed upstairs.

He came down a minute later shaking his head. I didn't confess. I only hope that they didn't have enormously expensive damage, but I don't really know. One thing is for sure. I am very cautious about volunteering to help out without first checking with the plant personnel.
> purposefully misread

You may want to follow your own advice in reading my first response. People feel strongly about inequality period. It's well established social fact that people's happiness and stress are tied to relative measure of success/status/access to resources etc. It also historically true that greater inequality leads to social instability. Partly because of the first point, but mostly because this top cadre of people are over-powered and will, human nature being what it is, use that power to exploit those with the least power until we're back to a point where there are a whole bunch of very poor people struggling to survive.

So it may be nice to think there could be an option of having supersized inequality (e.g. a bunch of 10x Elons) AND have everyone above the poverty line but the fundamentals of people and society mean that super-inequality is simply incapable with a state in which all of worlds poorest can thrive.

> What is the meaning of life? The question always makes my mind go blank. Then a negative answer comes. It has none.

Having no answer is not negative. You deem it negative because you have decided it should have a meaning.

People think nihilism and absurdism to be very pessimistic philosophies, for the sole reason that they do not want to accept that life has no absolute meaning. Even the idea of leaving your mark to the world is short-sighted selfcentredness, because in a long enough timescale people will even forget about Einstein.

No, what is pessimistic and aberrant is this very human notion that life must have meaning. Just embrace the reality of it. There is none. No one really cares or judge you at the end. It is such a happy and freeing platform to build your life around, rather than going through life silently cursing a God that by not existing, forgot to give you meaning.

Go through your own spiritual ego death. Then go do whatever you feel like doing, free from any shackles.
Competition has such a beautiful origin of the word "com-" (together) + "petere" (strive):

Not necessarily in opposition, how it is often interpreted nowadays, but in a shared endeavour to achieve excellence. Pushing each other to be better.
While in the case of dogs, behavior changes a lot by breed (ours was a German shepherd), I think it mostly boils down to how much time they spend outdoors and how busy they are.

It’s possible to have a healthy indoors cat while this probably only applies to some breeds of dogs (certainly not German shepherds… I dearly love (still) her and have her ashes in my desk but I wouldn’t have one again unless I moved to the country and had an actual job to give them).

So basically, I think the secret is, if you have dogs, make sure they get the level of activity their breed demands, and give them a job if they were bred for they, and if you have cats, keep them indoors, or take them out with you around (we do that when ours go out to the balconies and we’ve saved a few birds that way, in fact, the only bird they’ve killed so far got trapped because it flew into the apartment).
This post got me curious about similar scenarios in Elixir, and despite working with Elixir every day, I'm a bit surprised by one of the results I found:

# Recursive function that never terminates:
iex> f = fn i, f -> if rem(i, 100000) == 0 do IO.inspect(i) end; f.(i+1, f) end
# Start the function in a task with a 1 ms timeout
iex> Task.async(fn -> f.(0, f) end) |> Task.await(1)

My expectation here is that the task would output 0, then get killed when it hits the timeout. And I do get a timeout "exit" message logged with the child pid. But ALSO, the numbers keep printing as though the child task is still running! It appears to be specific to the configuration of the iex process but I'm not sure what it is - any Elixir/Erlang folks who can explain exactly what is happening here?

Not my field, but assuming transmitting hardware (including beam forming) is constant and that atmosphere can mostly be ignored (see comments about it usually being a non-impact in the transmission frequencies), two approaches would suggest:

1. Increase the effective receiving dish size, to capture more of the signal. Essentially, this would be effective in direct proportion to beam spread (the more beam spread, the bigger dish you can use to capture signal).

In practice, this would use multiple geographically-displaced dishes to construct a virtually-larger dish, to allow for better noise-cancellation magic (and at lower cost than one huge dish). I believe the deep space network (DSN) already does this? Edit: It certainly has arrayed antennae [0], though not sure how many are Voyager-tasked.

2. Increase the resilience of the signal, via encoding. The math is talking about bits and photons, but not encoded information. By trading lower bit-efficiency for increased error tolerance (i.e. including redundant information) we can extract a coherent signal even accounting for losses.

Someone please point out if I'm wrong, but afaik the Shannon–Hartley limit speaks to "lower" in the physical stack than error coding. I.e. one can layer arbitrary error coding on top of it to push limits (at the expense of rate)?

If the above understanding is correct, is there a way to calculate maximum signal distance assuming a theoretically maximally efficient error coding (is that a thing?) ? Or is that distance effectively infinite, assuming you're willing to accept an increasingly slow bit receiving rate?
