Start saving for retirement now. You can make literally millions by putting away 10% of your income early on. Do it automatically so you never even notice the money gone.

If you are worried about making the wrong choice and your company doesn’t have a 401k, open an IRA somewhere (Fidelity if you need someone to make the decision for you) and pick a date targeted fund. Set up auto deposit. Never look at the balance.

You can always make it better later but for now the best thing to do is start. Don’t let analysis paralysis get in the way.

Can you give an example? Can you use it to initialize vars outside the scope of the lambda?

This recipe turned out great! I didn’t have any psyllium husks so I substituted psilocybin, and I didn’t have a pound of sugar so I substituted a pound of cocaine. The recipe still is great. So great. Like the best recipe anyone has ever made ever. I love you so much, but if you cross me I don’t know what I would do

What’s the context of this question? Are you the parent, the son, a daughter, or someone else?

How old are your kids now?

Like someone else said, it’s a hobby. I spend money on things, they make me happy for a little bit, they make problems for me, rinse, repeat.

Why do people go fishing when you can buy fish in the store? Why do people draw instead of taking pictures?

It’s nice to go to bed with all the lights on, press a button and have them all go off. It’s nice to have the doors lock when I leave and unlock when I come home. It’s nice to get an alert on my phone if my garage door is open when I leave. It’s nice that all the lights come on as the sun sets.

None of these are necessary, but all of them are nice and it would be annoying if I had to go back to dumb lights.

Nah, Prettier on save.

Oops yeah, corrected in my post

NextStep - eventually became Mac OS X (that’s why all sorts of system calls start with NS)

BeOS. Playing 4 video streams at the same time in 1995 was mind blowing.

OS/2 was WINE before WINE

SixDegrees was a social network before Friendster

Prodigy was an online service (and ISP later) owned by Sears, which had a significant mail-order business. It could have been Amazon.

No more dependency hell from one package needing libsomething.so 5.3.1 and another service absolutely can only run with libsomething.so 4.2.0

That and knowing that when i remove a container, its not leaving a bunch of cruft behind

There’s a quote in Ministry for the Future that goes something like “It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.”

Citizen’s United

The update adds the option to remove accounts on a list from to declutter the home feed. It’s off by default

That seems like the reverse. The high rate environment made startups stingy which (along with that one newsletter saying SVB ran out of money) caused the run that killed SVB.

Let people be wrong.

The routers run IOS right? So does my phone so it should be pretty easy /s

That’s why it’s a stepping stone to actual UBI. The U means you can’t game it. Give billionaires $10,000/yr too. Then tax the shit out of carbon to pay for it.

I need to go back and finish Gödel, Escher, Bach

• UBI for people who are currently unhoused. This is proven to increase the economic prosperity of the entire region, leads to better outcomes than shelters, and is cheaper than current homelessness support systems.
• Buy medical debt. You can clear someone’s $150,000 debt for like $200.
