Then we might have reached the point to discuss whether it’s enough to lift the worst-off to some minimum where they can survive or whether we’re in a position now to also enable participation on broad scale.
Right now it looks like wealth is self-enforcing. Across certain thresholds, you can get an expert or have the network to help with your taxes, legal issues, investment strategy and so on. Maybe you even inherited it all from your parents. There are certainly prominent counter examples of people who crossed these thresholds with their own hard work. The majority of people does not.
I don‘t get which implications you derive from the changing needs over one’s life.
In all of those phases, safety and health of yourself and beloved ones are likely at the top of your needs. Is there a contradiction to your ideals when you were young (unless you went all in on YOLO)?
edit: Maybe it’s about the inclination towards uprise/revolution which might result in oppression and danger for those you want to protect. In that case: I don’t see why some kind of apocalyptic revolution must be part of the cycle mentioned in the top post. Maybe I’m still naive, but I still have hopes that we will get to sustainable terms on this planet.

I don’t think any of them were my priority when I was under 20. Health of my beloved ones became more important only recently, as my parents are way older now as well. And older people, on average, are more likely to have significant others to care about and etc.
But yeah, less time and thoughts on how to change the world and etc. as well. I’m not really sure how to explain it, if I’ll be honest, sorry. Just 10 years ago I was a different person. 20 years ago, I was even more different than today.
I’m in the process of ditching vscode and for now settled on nvim as the replacement. Currently, I still use Dendron for taking notes. There are some suggestions for companion plugins at the end of the readme - does anyone have additional suggestions? For example for tagging, linking between notes and visualizing the graph?
Do good ol' structural equation models count? Because I know quite a few colleagues doing research on patient experiences in healthcare, who do psychometric studies on patient-reported surveys of their experiences (patient-report outcome measures.)
The connection between SEMs and DAGs is really interesting. The underlying models are very similar but developed independently -- SEMs coming from the psychometrics tradition and popularized by Jöreskog, DAGs coming from Bayesian Networks and popularized by Pearl. There are deep connections between them -- we have done some work on that (e.g. https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/2kqxr and https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.13220).
I can‘t help to observe that the shapes in the article can be sorted by color and shape, with each resulting stack being numbered from 1 to 4.
Problem solved ;)
Could you elaborate a little on the traceability part, please? If the different steps of a processing chain are distributed via queues, you rather have an overhead in collecting the information in a central place, I would think.
That is certainly true, but message queues are pretty well suited to tagging and audit logs. So the systems involved tag the messages and an audit repository can accept logs from all services.
I guess this isn't in contrast to a monolith which is easier to log, but in contrast to non-message based microservices I think it's easier to implement the audit logging.
I‘d also rather say that it was about hosting the code for free in the first place and then the pull requests, including the possibility to comment on code in PRs. I use the git cli (instead of some UI / IDE extension) for all interactions with the repo locally. But as soon as it‘s about collaboration, these platforms come into play.
I just quickly scanned, to find that there is the `git request-pull` command, before I wasn’t even sure whether pull requests are a git built-in feature at all.
Side question: does any code hosting platform allow to comment on lines of code outside of pull requests? I‘ve had several occasions where I wanted to ask, why something was written the way it was.
a github pull request isn't a pull request; a pull request is an email from one of linus torvalds' direct underlings (subsystem maintainers) to linus torvalds "requesting" that he "pull" (hence the name) some tag. an arbitrary example: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/13/229
git request-pull generates these emails.
note that a "pull" is just "merge from a URL", and requires some preexisting trust, hence why it's only for the subsystem maintainers.
github stole this term for their signature misfeature and we've all been suffering since. some of its clones walk back this poor naming by saying "merge request" instead, but the damage to the name is done.
