> - a lot of knowledge is implicit (try checking if you can dynamically add children to a Supervisor)

What? This is very clear: <https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/stdlib/supervisor.html#start...>, as is this: <https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/1.18.3/Supervisor.html#start_child...>. What am I missing?

> - this order of compilation influences outcome and can lead to buggy code

Do you have an example of this? It's my understanding that the big thing about both Erlang and Elixir are that they're functional languages, it doesn't matter what's compiled when. Is this some nightmare compile-time code manipulation thing?

> ...searching [the docs] shows random versions and there isn’t even a link to „open newest”

These are separate issues. Healthcare aint cheap anywhere for the state, but its perfectly fundable for any but the most poor and broken countries in the world, to a very decent level. But US is broken in another way - everything is for-profit, no real oversight, and unrestricted capitalism full throttle. Then you get what you got.

There are 2 absolutely basic pillars of modern free society worth living in - 1) how it takes care of its weak and injured ones (healthcare and social services); 2) and how it builds a better future via good available public education. US fails in most if not all of those. There are aspects it excels in but they are not primary markers of happiness, life fulfillment, low stress and such.
This kinda fits, though it's on a personal blog level:

As a society, or I guess even as a species, we need to figure out how to deal with digital drugs, fast. I mean it, they are drugs. That doesn't mean ban them, but getting serious about understanding how to integrate them safely into our lives is important. Just like the chemical versions, digital drugs come in different potencies and with different effects and we need to think about classifying them as such. FB, Fox, HN, you name it. What is a 'safe' experience? How do we introduce our kids to them or how do we keep them away if it is too harmful? These are not easy questions for sure.

"- dependency compilation is not parallelized - takes a lot of time and uses 10% of CPU"

Dependencies are commonly in foreign programming languages, where the compiler might run things concurrently outside of BEAM control. It's not uncommon that Mix is configured by dependencies to just pull a binary for the local architecture from some repo instead. Perhaps that's what you ought to do in your CI and deploy flows, instead of compiling everything.

My pet model of anger is as a manifestation/symptom of (or mask for) fear[0].

Having encountered people who reinforced their arbitrary boundaries in various ways (including physical violence) strategically and obviously without anger, as well as people who are constantly letting off anger without apparent success in own boundary reinforcement, I find the fear model a better fit for anger than the boundary-setting model.

That said, the models could coexist, make sense for different situations and individuals, and provide their own ways of resolution.

1. The boundary-setting model provides letting off anger as a way to reinforce boundaries and avoid the situation from reoccurring. It can be a productive way of dealing with the situation, and I admit one I haven’t thought about as much prior to today.

2. The fear model provides “overcoming fear” as a way of evolving to prevent the discomfort from reoccurring. From the boundary-setting angle, this could mean adjusting boundaries. (Note that this is different from repressing anger.)

Either model may be more useful in specific contexts: you may want to learn to choose the second option with a loved one, a friend, or perhaps a colleague, but to reinforce boundaries with a random person in a situation where others may use the precedent to take advantage of you[1].

Then, there’s a whole host of situations where there is fear/boundary violation not concerning any person in particular (e.g., living in a crowded city, in a society with unfamiliar norms, neurological changes due to physical factors difficult or impossible to control, etc.) where I wouldn’t say the fear model/overcoming fear is always the best fit, but I would say the boundary model/letting off anger could mostly lead to poor and destructive outcomes for yourself and others around you, especially over long term.

[0] Where “fear” ought to be interpreted at least as widely and generically as “boundaries” and could range from “fear of personal harm” to “fear for social status” to “fear of unknown” and so on.

[1] I will note that in such a situation giving into anger may be a bad choice if you are not in a position to use it well intuitively; depending on an individual and the situation, cold response can be more useful. Once you are weighing this all, you are necessarily not being angry, so the ability to snap back into the state on demand can be a valuable skill.

It's the same experience that people on the other politics spectrum endured in the previous cycle. There is not difference, except from the side that is suffering now.

People were fired for speaking against woke culture, now they are fired because they speak for it. And woke culture is just one controversial thing, it can be anything. Religion, politics, any topic that fragment a group can be seized to exercise power over it.

The way to change it is to identify the common experience across differences, being fired for expressing one's ideas, and to fight against that... fight for the right of free speech for both for those you agree and those you disagree with, and you have to accept others when they express the opposite view. Speech should be free. Power is dialectic: contrary to violence, it works through meaning and eloquence.

They had the original actors record the lines to dub. They didn't necessarily have the budget to re-shoot the entire movie with them saying the lines in English, so that's not work lost. The "AI" here is a program that manipulates their faces to match the English syllables. All I see here is the creation of more work for people to do, not less (dubbing/subtitling it would likely bring a smaller audience).

> The situation is so extreme that more than 40% of students were caught cheating recently—and it happened in an ethics class!

A bit concerned about the hyper-stimulation but this actually gives me a lot of hope and I think it'll be worth it. What the teachers are concerned about here is their pathetic institution of teaching which has not revolutionized with the time. It's amazing (is that the right word?) that the teacher is annoyed by his students "cheating" on the test but they don't see the fallacy of determining one's trajectory through a single point (1 hour exam).

The system is pathetic and hopefully the new generation is smarter, sees it for what it is, spends its time on screen/video games and let these bureaucrats infinitely scratch their heads.

I’m going to respectfully disagree with you there. Trump’s success as a politician is solely down to three factors.

Firstly, he has an insatiable desire for attention, admiration, and generally benefitting himself. That’s what causes his drive.

Secondly, he has no scruples or adheres to any morals or ethics whatsoever, he is completely ruthless. This allows him to do and say whatever serves him the most in any given situation.

Lastly, he has a specific type of charisma that has purchase with a certain segment of the people.

That’s is the full extent of it. He has no other skills or useful attributes. Anything else, especially if it’s at all technical or practical, comes from the people he’s surrounded himself with.

To interact with your point, he’s not even particularly adept at enlisting sycophants. Remember his first administration, when numerous aides and associates had both public and private disagreements with him (as one example out of many, I’ll refer to Rex Tillerson calling him a ”fucking moron”). The reason things are different this time is that another set of people are running the show, and they’ve realized that including old establishment Republicans, that have to at least pretend to be serious members of society, would have been a barrier to their agenda.

Turning the judiciary red across the country is especially not something you can attribute to Trump. It’s been a systematic effort by the Republicans (and adjacent organizations such as the Heritage Foundation) over the span of decades. He just happened to be in the position to make the appointments.
> I have a multi-purpose server running Samba with 10 Gbps SFP+.

Stupid question: Are you aware of the 10Gtek company? If you're unaware, my experience over the past many years is that they sell inexpensive SFP+ modules that work just fine... so if you're ever in the market for more modules, give them a try (if you haven't already).
Oh, that's a good one. And it's true. There seems to be a massive inability for most people to admit the building impact of modern AI development on society.
