Reminds me of "Could God create a stone so heavy that even he could not lift it"
I would find it funny if this was due to "laziness" - defining laziness as it was a known oversight yet left unpatched. If we consider Anthropic as the leader in AI-native engineering, workflows, culture, etc. how can laziness in code exist? It should be as easy as for them to tell claude "come up with a better way" or, better yet, had their 24/7 monitoring agents identify and resolve this. If this was an oversight, which is completely natural to the eng process, maybe this current ai narrative/hype/marketing should be taken with a grain of salt
This brings a better case to buy your own "master" domain(s) that you actively use and park your ideas on the subdomains. I would park it in a subdomain of one of my main 2 sites - either my personal blog or freelance company. So I have idea1.mydomain.com, idea2.mydomain.comm idea3.mylongerpersonaldomain.com. Might take a damage on my SEO but an idea so early on are most likely found through personal content creation with links to that site anyways.
The ripples are bigger than just losing your Google account, but all the third party services you use that use Google authentication. That convenience just locked you out of X amount of accounts - I recorded I used 15+ accounts before switching out. That is why I advise my coworkers and myself to always sign up with an email and password stored in a password manager.
Calling it an extreme connotates it as "wrong" to a degree, when other philosophers might counter that there is just the right way and wrong way i.e. Kant's Categorical Imperative and its Universal Moral Law. I do not totally agree, or even understand, the implications of Kant's pov. especially the example of a Nazi knocking on one's door, one is universally morally compelled to say you are hiding people. However the intention of these "extreme ideologies" is not to create useful/practical approaches to life or thrive in society or even be happy, but to uphold values which may be greater than life itself.
> Don’t think that there won’t be politics because there wasn’t politics before. Politics emerge when the players believe the game is zero sum. In a recession, the players are more likely to believe the game is zero sum.
Another related quote from someone I read on another post "People call it politics when they are losing" [0]. A major draw to work for a early/medium startups is that there is "no" politics/bureaucracy, to get out of the "cog of the machine". As the company grows, processes are naturally developed and when the term "politics" is more frequently used. This projected recession is accelerating the development of processes, i.e. politics, for all companies.
Yes I have had that problem already, more specifically cleaning the lists in wd if directories are moved or removed. I do a cronjob to try to rectify that but interested to see if z mitigates this problem - seems there is an option -x to remove learned directories.
[edit] Or z's based ageing ranking system will just aged those legacy directories, even better (in terms of more hands off)!
Have you checked out Warp drive for zsh? https://github.com/mfaerevaag/wd It is more manual than z, but takes out the learning phase. Will check out z though!
"I'd like to welcome you to this course on Computer Science. Actually thats a terrible way to start. Computer science is a terrible name for this business. First of all, its not a science. It might be engineering or it might be art. Well actually see that computer so-called science actually has a lot in common with magic. We will see that in this course. So its not a science. Its also not really very much about computers. And its not about computers in the same sense that physics is not really about particle accelerators. And biology is not really about microscopes and petri dishes. And its not about computers in the same sense that geometry is not really about using a surveying instruments."
Another term for this is the Hegelian dialectic [0]. Very similar to your term playful association but it describes that the "first" old idea, the thesis, allows there to be a counter idea, the antithesis. These two counter ideas morph into one idea, the synthesis. A consequence of this term over playful association is that these New Ideas are more tangible and have less sense of randomness.
An example of this playing out - First came Disco, the thesis. People who didn't like Disco came up with Rock, the antithesis. The combining of those two became Pop, the synthesis. And the music timeline continues (don't overthink the music choices I'm completely guessing)
Crazy how this topic on drowning led me to your comment and led me down a rabbit hole where I am now ordering The Evolution of Beauty, Prum and The Handicap Prinicple, Amotz. Thank you for this comment
Operate on first principles, what do you need to know to be a "successful" programmer in the technical, social, and/or ideological context.
Data Structures and their relationship with each other to be a great technical programmer. These books (just highlight not everything) I would think -> Algorithms Sedgewick, Lisp Programmers Manual, Designing Distributed Systems. .To be a great collaborative programmer (in a work enviornment) -> Pragmattic Programmer, Code Complete, Mythical Man Month, A Philsophy of Software Design by Ousterhout. For philsophy of programming itself -> The Soul of a Machine
Edit: Programming is very broad and operates in many context from the technical, social, to the ideas behind it. I would say it is almost to early to have those definitive fundamental books
Just started reading "Man and His Symbols" by Carl Jung (would recommend), and as other people posted, Jungarian beleive that dreams are more active than random passive thoughts. New ideas can come through the sub-conscious.
