I'll link something I wrote on LinkedIn and quote part of it here: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jacky-alcine_private-governme...

> Much of the time, the entire economy operates in periods of substantial hashtag#unemployment or hashtag#underemployment, affecting workers generally: even if they have a job, the cost of job loss is so high they have to put up with nearly any abuse just to hang on to an income. Meanwhile, employers use their power to design workplaces to create a fine-grained division of labor in which workers are deskilled and thus easily replaceable.

I try not to lean on economic theory as a means of driving society (as much as capitalistic governance wants us to - we don't have to accept it). Both of the layoffs I experienced were examples of that perceived health (both at Glitch and Code for America). Coupling that with the need for us to feel "grateful" for something that can be effectively guaranteed to make us a bit messed up in the head when talking about this.

People forget that the other problems are created by life itself. There is no way out by playing its game. You cannot escape the problem making machine by using it: it will only produce more problems.

But the truth is that I'm not convinced that death is the "the winning move is not playing it". You see death is life: in order to die you must be alive first.

That's why lately I'm thinking unconsciousness is the way out, but I'm not sure about that too.

This sounds nice but it doesnt work. Americans widely despise congress but like their own representative. Telling voters "make your representative accountable" will not fix anything. I would like for congress to be an effective body that is able to pass laws that are widely popular, but we can all see that that just is not the reality we are working with.

I get what you’re saying. I wouldn’t pick it for myself. Still, he’s from Switzerland where German is a local language, and that’s a normal German word outside the Nazi usage. It wasn’t one of the ones they invented themselves.

Livestocks is also heavily supplemented, non-vegan can avoid supplements in our modern world but what they eat do eat supplement.
The core issue is that the Masonic trilateral structure - legislative, judiciary, & executive - is showing its age. The problem is fundamentally structural.

We have generally unqualified representatives drafting ambiguous regulatory laws that then need to be interpreted by some entity, whether the courts (whose expertise is law) or the agencies (whose expertise is not law).

There are two related difficult problems in governance models: entrenched bureaucracies and security services. Specialized tasks that require professionals who can naturally form a political block and subsequently political will and clout. However their responsible roles are by definition 'professional'.

I think we need to start thinking of a more modern political structure, specially in light of communication and information technology available. This debate over who is overreaching and who gets to get bribed or what ideological faction will get to interpret is a futile endeavor.

The core issue is 'legal and political consensus that is informed by expert insights'. As an example (to get you thinking) more 'real-time' engagements between different branches of the system could address all of the issues that SC or its decision opponents are arguing about.

Naive thought incoming:

If these old galaxies are so dense, could that help explain why their black hole is disproportionately large? With so many stars so close together, maybe they’re gravitationally interacting with each other far more, causing a lot more instability. So you have a bunch of stars knocking each other around and as a byproduct more of them get flung close enough to the center to get captured by the black hole?
Good post, I agree with most of it. One that goes hand-in-hand with "just ask the question" is learning to know when to pivot. If you've hit a blocker, whether it's something to do with waiting on a teammate, client, or answer to a hard question, consider pivoting to another task to knock out some easy wins.

Ideally the task you pivot to should require minimal context switching to get going. This way you won't lose productivity. Often if the blocker is a hard problem and you go back to it later, you might have a good idea after stepping away for a bit as a bonus.

Essentially the most that is really required by permissive licenses (Apache, BSD, MIT and their ilk) is a preservation of the license text, if even that. Anything else beyond that is open to change. So anyone can take any project licensed as such, and relicense with something more or less business-friendly, regardless of whether all contributors agree or not. That's what it means to be permissive.

Why is the OSI definition considered canonical? I mean the OSI:

- didn’t invent the term open-source, they co-opted it from Christine Peterson who is not even a member of OSI

- was founded by secret charter members and is funded by closed-source tech giants like Google, Apple, and Microsoft who make billions exploiting open-source software while giving virtually nothing back in return

- is heavily influenced by these same corporate giants who steer decisions such as the definition of open-source for their personal profit above the needs of society

Zero-day vulnerabilities in temperature monitors could leak patient data
This is from personal experience, but there is a difference between letting someone take 2 weeks to starve or die of dehydration, and big-letters "euthanasia". Sometimes the people who work in palliative care are nuanced enough to ease you out when your final days come. Where I live, euthanasia is not legal. But when my sister was dying from cancer she directly told her palliative meds guy "I watched my uncle gasp for two weeks. I'm not going like that. You hear me?"

When it came to it, she didn't. It still wasn't petty because death-by-cancer never is. She was extremely weak and thin and tired. But on her last day she spoke to everyone in the family, gave weak hugs, said goodbyes. I guarantee you that guy took away days (at least) of suffering. We all knew that. He knew that. She knew that. Nobody said it though.

And I think that's better than someone who can't afford to deal with a disability being asked if they're prefer to die than cost the state lots of money. Horror stories both sides of the nuance.
The vertical height isn't relevant, but the relative vertical height between two "nodes" on different wires could (a-priori) be.

No it is not. This is incredibly easy to see by just visiting different cities. Northern cities like chicago and minneapolis have very small homeless populations. Its not because no one in these cities lost their job or because the cities are dealing with homelessness better than west coast cities. The homeless in the these cities leave.

We might have different ideas about what constitutes a tutorial. Online tutorials vary massively in quality, but something like the official Python tutorial https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/ is a fine resource. I would even say that the categories are not mutually exclusive - I would call "Structure and Interpretation

Also, "To learn how to implement computer programs, read books about it." contradicts the original comment's "There is no substitute for doing" more than I'm happy with.

I think this is great for the craft of coding and solving problems. I’d add one more, along the vein of career advice: you’re hired to solve problems for the business, not to solve technical problems. If you can’t explain how the thing you’re doing makes an actual difference for the business, you need to reflect on what you’re spending your time on. I’ve seen too many technical teams be far too fixated on technical problems and unable to understand why they can’t get more headcount, funding, or recognition. Nobody writing checks cares about code.

Which is correct. Congress's role is to legislate on matters within the scope of its enumerated powers, as subject to judicial review, and absolutely not to "make all the laws" that regulate "every facet of American life".

There are plenty of matters of law that are not delegated to Congress, and are reserved e.g. to states, and plenty of facets of American life that are outside the bounds of political intervention entirely, where people are responsible for making their own decisions in a pluralistic fashion.

Factorio is special though, because it actively uses the beta version functionality in Steam to not only provide betas but also older stable versions. This allows the devs to move fast and break things.
