this post made sense to me https://teltam.github.io/posts/soft-dictionary-keys.html

It helps to think of kqv as a form of look up.

Thank you for being flippant. I'm too poor for a therapist.

I agree with you except post-independence in the middle of the 19th and 20th century, the supposedly benevolent West hedged and continue to plunder and usurp Africa and Asia. Values based? Sure, see how rational it is, for you but not for us. We must agree upon universal declarations and you better listen up we know what we're doing.

I have no idea why you think these are `silly ritual flagellations`. Drop everything, the British left the Indian subcontinent in flames. Oh wait, this sounds a lot like Afghanistan. Down vote me for all I care, but if you've not experienced the horror of colonialism and the mess we have to pickup after and fix, with poverty, disease and f_cking IP (TB, Aids, Food Security), and fragile democracy setup to serve external masters, in the presence of evolved men, I respectfully ask you to be empathetic to a lot of voices that still can't be heard. You clearly don't seem to understand the utter s_it some of us and our parents have lived through.

Sure, the awesome Western cultural evolution is grand and something to wait for, who knows what form it will take.

Ok, let's drop all of history except the last 70 years. The zenith of evolution. A poor country had to give you, the West, the finger to save the less fortunate from Aids[1].

I respectfully ask you to continue to self-flagellate.

Thanks. Seems like a technical problem on his throw then? I'm not aware of the intricacies of surface and I assumed it was a standardized setup.

Source for the reason Johannes Vetter failed? Does not look like this was covered well in the press.

I'm still reading up so looking for resources. What's a good introduction that talks about how the Chinese state is looking at individual choices? 5 year planning makes sense but the implementation is key (India for example had similar planning processes). Is there writing on how Xi or the CCP thinks about incorrect choices in the planning or a fail-safe that prevents what happened to the Soviet Union? Have they ever talked about getting things wrong?

One idea that seems to make sense to me is that social mobility is the equivalent of starvation in a socialist setup. What we see today with the poorer sections of society especially African Americans is a strong indicator that all systems of power should be viewed critically and with compassion. The vast majority of the poor in America for example are obese and that's one cost I can think of that we pay for the current system. Btw, I'm not saying poverty is the cause, just that the system is setup to maximize free market outcomes that are not good but we put up with them, https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/food/the-true-conne...

Indeed, one of the more interesting ideas I've been considering is how does society think about the delayed effects on mental health and attention deficit. For example, one might argue maybe Netflix is easier to moderate at the level of a family or community, like having parental locks on time spent on quality content. But what do you do with Internet Porn? There is enough evidence that novelty stimulation has detrimental effects. For either scenario, the internet has made it easier to consume more and at a faster rate, but we don't have a quick and easy mechanism to talk about these things and develop cultural practices. One of the more interesting ideas for me is finding that balance between liberal individual right to choice and recognizing all systems including human society is a feedback loop and drifts into failure (either expanding freedoms or curbing them).

Does appearing taller win more points for gymnastics?

I've always found it weird that some sports have women wearing scant clothing compared to the mens events. Volleyball for example is a big one where it's unclear how bikini bottoms help over shorts.

Yes exactly, was looking to comment this. HTML and other formats (markdown) are driven by adoption and stick around for that reason.

Is there a name for this that I can google for?

I work for AWS and the concept of Bar Raisers sits in a weird grey area. There are plenty of decent candidates who pass the bar but we do stack ranking for the year end review. So they can hire at headcount and end up having to fire anyway. If you end up with two hires that are roughly the same the stack rank takes care of it.

yes excellent mock, I see what you mean.

How would you deal with multiple levels of nesting? :) Let's say you're at level 5 which is pretty reasonable.

Oh and I also forgot about languages like Java that are heavy on interfaces and DI. That would be interesting to handle.

Great mock up, this is pretty interesting. Food for thought!

I'm curious to understand your use-case, would be open to explaining more?

Do you actually want to overlay the code directly into the parent method or would a tooltip (similar to hyperlink previews) work? I wondering how expanding the real estate space would help with readability and how the userflow would work.

For example, code folding made a lot more sense because the window would have those little boxes to fold unfold (which is basically similar to the act of inline and un-inline).

I wonder if that education should also explicitly include how likes, ads and attention are correlated. Making them understand their place in the world is good but SM is a different take on that age-old problem.

Most editors have code folding. I've noticed this helps when there are comments or it's easy to figure out the branching or what not.

However, what you're asking for is a design style that's hard to implement I think without language tooling (for example identifying effectful methods).

What techniques do you use now to cope? I'm going to go get a diagnosis as well, I think I have enough anecdotal evidence to talk to a medical professional.

I have the same problem. Once I get some sense of understanding the overall skill or problem I lose interest? Novice skill is definitely a worse thing to have and getting better takes a lot of consistent work and time.

How do I fix this? It seems like a motivation problem, possibly some sort of craving for novelty perhaps (I don't want to say ADHD but sounds like it)?

> As an employee, try to be as a reflective person as you ask your boss to be one. Maybe your work is the reason for him/her to be micromanaging

This is great advice about being reflective, however most humans don't like such conversations (for example like most friend groups). Do you have advice on how to approach such conversations?

I've lost two grandparents. I know how dire it is and I'm sitting here in the US of A not able to do anything about it.

Not disagreeing on data fudging. Just asking for some cooler heads when thinking about the situation.

yes I agree with the data fudging, however I'm just asking for some restraint in extrapolation. One anecdote of furnace melting does not mean we're in hell. I'm saying this not out of some misplaced sense of patriotism, but that these are incredibly hard times and its easy to spiral into more fear mongering and FUD.

However I'm not defending anybody in this mess. From the US and EU blocking patent waivers to India's government being chronically under capacity, to having people fly to Maldives for late last year. This is a cluster fuck of how stupid humans are at the end of the day.

Please donate whatever you can, we'll get out of this mess.

Good point but not quite. TN for example and most southern states are doing fairly well.

Is there a name for this effect? It sounds similar to what women experience when they don't wear makeup for example (makes them come across as less competent).

I'm not a policy person, so consider this a good faith question. If government policy mandates larger leave times (both parents), who eats the cost? I'm guessing the company does and the government probably provides a tax credit? How do policy people think about this?

Say we do have such a policy, what's stopping a hiring manager from not hiring more women who might be say 30 and more likely to have kids soon? There's two parts to this question, one if we have equal leave for both parents, and if we have 2x more leave for women over men. How do policy people think about these types of arguments?

How do policy people think about costs in general for such government policies?

If you're intention is to gain weight (not just muscle) you need to eat more than your BMR, no two ways around that. A decent surplus (say 200-300 calories above BMR) and a good program is key.

Morten Harket also had an amazing voice though.

Can you say more here, I don't have the context.

Do you have code snippet examples for handling effectful code and testing it (kinda like a monad where you read from a DB). Would love to see snippets around that.
