*Thread* - the hack is wack

The Master Life 'Hack' to Solve All Problems

 What's easier?

Developing psychology & exerting willpower to not eat a pantry full of your favorite snacks

or

Not having those temptations in the house

Many 'solutions' being presented to people don't work

Designed to cope with the problem instead of resolving it
Darkness is the absence of light

You can't resolve or remove the darkness

You can only add more light

Recent viral obsessions with 'healing', 'being stoic', 'mental models & psychology'

They all serve their place AFTER the root has been handled
Before adding things to increase testosterone, remove what inhibits it

Before adding 'hacks', remove things causing conflict

If a person fears confrontation & is not assertive

Techniques & thinking offer some support, but the real question is

Why is this the default behavior?
Without starting with this question

All solutions are merely Band-Aids to mask & cope with the symptoms

In reality the real root of his fear of asserting himself & confrontation may likely be:
1) Chemical stress from too much caffeine & trash foods. Spiking heart rate, cortisol, adrenals

These max-out the bandwidth available for discomfort,

Therefore there is no more available room to take on additional discomfort (confrontation/assertiveness)
2) Perceived Stress - discomfort/uncertainty in his finances & physical strength create a perception

Which further maxes out the bandwidth for uncertainty tolerance & discomfort tolerance

So again we can ask

What is more effective?
Memorizing, faking, and 'doing' assertive techniques

OR

- Fixing the chemical stress
- Developing physical strength
- Getting on top of his finances

To actually BE more certain, confident, and assertive

Due to having bandwidth available for discomfort/uncertainty tolerance
Techniques & 'hacks' give the illusion of being easier

But it's something you must do consciously & constantly

Like always remembering to stand up straight for good posture

vs developing muscles/flexibility to have good posture as your default

without 'doing' anything
The core message of what is being said here is

Instead of applying a technique or 'hack' to compensate for something

Resolve the deficiency itself which then makes your default expression the optimal one
Mens dating advice has grown rapidly in recent years

They share many great points which help people

However, pretty much everything shared articulates qualities expressed on how you would act

IF the root issue was not there
Neediness for example

Instead of having to do techniques or consciously calculate how to not look needy

....actually develop a life in which you got other sht going on

Multiple sources of good emotions
Multiple emotions for fun & excitement

Important tasks keeping you busy
Point of this thread is not to discredit the conscious understanding of behaviors

It's to set primary orientation to actually BECOME the person who exhibits those behaviors

Implementing strategy as a secondary layer (back-up)

NOT as the primary mode of artificial operation
Be the truth

Thank you for reading

Cheers 🥂

1/ @werat asked about whether the debugger was using the C# compiler or language service in VS 2002. It was not. The debugger has a component called an ‘expression evaluator’ that is provided per language and is responsible for parsing and evaluating expressions when stopped at a

2/ breakpoint. For example, if you type into the immediate window, hover over a variable, type into the watch window, etc. the expression evaluator is involved. The debugger and the language service are actually deeply integrated in a number of scenarios in VS, which may

A thread on teaching live lessons using @MicrosoftTeams Meet Now function where students follow their normal timetable except online - will go into more detail on every point in a blog post later. Have used Teams for live teaching have supported over 100 live lessons since March

1. If you are using the desktop app, check you have the latest version of Teams so that you should have Breakout rooms enabled. Check by clicking your profile picture, then About - I have version 1.3.00.28779. If you have 1.2..., click on check for updates to get the latest


2. Set your entry routine. I get my students to enter with their microphone muted - you can also not allow attendees to unmute by opening the participants list, clicking the ellipsis and selecting that option.


3. Make sure students arrive as attendees - some organisations have this set up to automatically happen that only meeting organizer is the presenter and others are attendees. Can change this in the manage permissions menu to only me if not already set (opens in a web browser).


4. Classroom routine and expectations - first lesson I share my screen and show the students the raise hand function for when they want to ask questions, how to access the chat function and how to react to questions as opposed to typing answers

One of my purposes for 2021 is to simplify Docker for beginners.

Let's start with some definitions:

🏠Docker host
⚙️Docker engine
❓ Docker client
📝Dockerfile
📑Docker Image
🐳Docker Container
🐙Docker Compose
🪣 Docker Registry
🐳🐳🐳Docker Swarm

Definitions Below 👇

🏠Docker (Active) Host

A computer with Docker installed and the daemon running.

It can process Docker and non-Docker workloads.

⚙️Docker Engine

A Client-Server application. It has 3 components:

- "daemon process": A server that is a type of long-running program.

- "Rest API": to specify interfaces that programs can use to talk and interact with the daemon.

- "CLI": A command-line interface client

❓Docker Client

It sends commands to dockerd, using the Docker API.
It can communicate with multiple daemons.

📝Dockerfile

It's a text document that contains all the commands a user could call on the command line to assemble an image.

The Internet is at a tipping point, here’s what you’ve probably never heard coming next.

Time for a thread 👇👇👇

1) Let’s start with the users…

Today over 50% of the world is on social media AND on average we each have 70-80 usernames and passwords.

Each of these accounts are owned and controlled by the platforms.

Recipe for disaster.


2) In 2021 American adults spend over 4 hours a day online - that is half a work day.

Time is our most valuable asset, did you realize you are giving this away for free?


3) The applications we use today are built on the foundation of ‘Free + Ads’.

You get free access.

They get YOUR account, YOUR data, YOUR screen time, YOUR community.

And the worst part? This can all be taken away at any moment.


4) So where do we go from here?

It starts with self-sovereign digital identities.

ONLY the user owns their identity data online without intervention from outside parties.

If you're looking at GA EV data and thinking maybe the reason D turnout looks strong relative to 11/3 is because after 2 months of Trump/GOP officials trashing mail-in ballots GOP voters are ditching it for E-Day instead...

Boy do I have some mindblowing statistics for you...

I compared the current mail-in voting tallies for each Congressional District against November mail-in votes for those districts.

The statewide figure currently sits at 62%. Guess which district leads the state?

You guessed it!

GA-14 at 69%. Marjorie Taylor Greene's district.

#2 is GA-8 at 68%.

Jody Hice of "I'm joining Marjorie Taylor Greene in her effort to throw out the Electoral College vote" fame.

GA-9 (Doug Collins) is above the state average at 64%.

IF Republicans were ditching absentee balloting en masse to vote on Election Day, you'd expect to see it by now. But the early *in-person* voting totals are what's actually lagging, not mail-in voting.

Pardon the sloppy spreadsheet, but those last 4 columns are what I'm looking at. The last one in particular.

My dad’s first memory is hiding under a table 80 years ago tonight, when Nazis took his dad to Dachau on #Kristallnacht.

His parents, my Omi and Opi, always considered themselves more German than Jewish, so they didn’t think they’d get swept up in the madness.

Opi was taken to city hall with other Jews and lined up against a wall. He thought he was going to be shot.

He always remembered when they got to Dachau there were pajamas with Jewish stars waiting on their cots. Obviously not a spontaneous thing.

He was very lucky. His family got him a fake Uruguayan visa and he was out of Dachau six weeks later. “Before Christmas,” my dad recalls.

Mangottu Bhagavathi Temple
#Palakkad #Kerala
#keralatemples 🚩

Mangottu Bhagavathi Temple is situated in Athipotta near Alathur of palakkad district. Devi is kshipraprasadi here and grants relief to those who worship with full faith.
Mookken Chathen, situated on the Northern 👇


side of the temple, is guarding Devi here.
Story says that, once there lived a weaver named Kuttan who was a Devi Bhaktan. During one festival time Kuttan was so pleased by the Devi Vigraham that he requested her to come along with him. At that time wind blew heavily and Cloths


in Vigraham flew. Kuttan immediately decorated Devi with his cloth which stuck to Vigraham and returned to his village and with his Umbrella. Devi came with him in that Umbrella and stayed in his place. This place is Mangottu Bhagavathi temple now.

A thread on HN about bad code in legacy projects both makes me think how little we've learned as a discipline over the years and, honestly, how little credit we give ourselves for some pretty major

Fun going down this list and thinking: "Hmm, plausible at a well-run modern software shop", "Hmm, possible, but requires implausible tradeoffs", "Literally disallowed by languages", and "If you were to attempt doing that our test suite wouldn't let you merge."

I think we as an industry celebrate (not quite the right word) failure too much and don't celebrate success nearly enough. There is no DailyWTF for competent execution, word of which generally stays pretty local to the source while incompetence passes into legend.

Alrighty let me try to thread the needle on being the change I want to see in the world while not giving away anything that will get me in trouble:

Ruby has wonderful developer ergonomics. Typed languages are easier for machines to guarantee the correctness of. We built a type checker for Ruby (and I believe it is slated for OSS release sometime).

A story of a brave woman who let her "breast" cut to protect the life of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose!

Neera Arya was born on March 5 1902 in Khekra Nagar, Uttar Pradesh in a distinguished & eminent businessman Seth Chhajumal's family. Since her childhood,


2/21
She was a true nationalist & always had a vision of becoming a part of the freedom fighter movement. She was also reportedly accused as an undercover by the British Govt.

That was the time when her father's business was flourishing in Calcutta, though his business was..

3/21
spread across the country but Calcutta was the center of his business and that was one of the reasons why her education was done in Calcutta. During that period of time, she had learned quite a few languages along with Bengali, Hindi, English.

4/21
Her father got her married to a CID Inspector "Shrikant Jairanjan Das" in British India but they were two different individuals, Neera Arya was a true nationalist but her husband was a true British servant. She was highly motivated & she had an urge of getting us freedom..

5/21
so she ended up joining the Jhansi Regiment in Azad Hind Fauz after the marriage. It was the regiment that the British always accused them of spying on British Govt.

It was the time when Neera's husband Jairanjan Das was given the responsibility to spy on Netaji Subhash..
