Here’s my situation. How would you get out of this pickle that I’m in?

>28 years old
>Work what’s meant to be a low stress job but end up stressing myself the fuck out. Mostly my fault.
>My skills have stagnated since working here 4 years. Am feeling behind the curve.
>Haven’t kept up personal projects.
>Didn’t make the correct moves and didn’t keep up the job search
>Company going to shit. Somehow burnt out and bored as fuck.
>No companies are getting back to me on job search.

Apart from taking a chill pill and grinding leetcode and projects. How else would you suggest I get out of this predicament? I’m walking up early everyday for months working through this so am putting in work (12 hour days roughly). I’m keen to stay in tech cause it’s cool.

I might be promoted to techlead
It will most likely be a "ceremonial office" and I won't have a real say in anything. I will have to work harder, be present in more meetings, and keep memorizing shit so I will be able to answer technical questions quickly during meetings.

There is no use-case for lambdas. Learning lambda calculus / haskell (you're probably learning lambdas for haskell) is an unemployment endeavor .

>>107786259
Think about it like this, you see the λ? Imagine you start and the top of the lambda and you come down to where it splits, it's a branching path. If you stay there and don't make a decision, you're at 0. If you choose a path, you would made a decision once. Now you drop down to the next lamba on the list. If you stay there, you stay at 1. If you choose a path, you will have chosen yet another path incrementing how many decision you've made by 1. Every time you choose a path, you increment the amount of decisions you have made. By making decisions and keeping track of how many decisions you've made, you can count.

because you can pass function as x

I too greatly dislike this. Can't it just be in one file? Though I also think ligatures always look bad even fi and ff. Though I also think the Windows mouse pointer icon looks crooked and that "optical center" is bullshit. Though I also think emoji are worse than emoticons. So maybe my taste isn't that refined.

>I wish my job wasn't programming so I could automate it in Emacs
It's not just about what you do but rather who you are working for. In my case, I work by myself so I can manage my workflow however I want. The only obligation I have is towards my country's revenue service but besides that, I have complete freedom. But if I were an employee, I doubt they would permit me to use anything else besides VisualStudio/Outlook/Excel.

>Gnus for email
Gnus is too arcane at this point. It has lots of "gotchas" and is capricious. You gotta spend lots of lines of elisp to make it work as you expect it to.

I am eyeing the possibilty of turning notmuch into my "gnus".

I'm having trouble with python, eglot, pylsp and mypy. Mypy always breaks at the first line of every file:

    1   0 error    e-f-b    mypy: usage: mypy [-h] [-v] [-V] [more options; see below]

I'm using pet-mode, but that seems unrelated.

36. Weakness.—Every pursuit of men is to get wealth; and they cannot have a title to show that they possess it justly, for they have only that of human caprice; nor have they strength to hold it securely. It is the same with knowledge, for disease takes it away. We are incapable both of truth and goodness.

437. We desire truth, and find within ourselves only uncertainty.

We seek happiness, and find only misery and death.

We cannot but desire truth and happiness, and are incapable of certainty or happiness. This desire is left to us, partly to punish us, partly to make us perceive wherefrom we are fallen.

438. If man is not made for God, why is he only happy in God? If man is made for God, why is he so opposed to God?

Pascal

464. Philosophers.—We are full of things which take us out of ourselves.

Our instinct makes us feel that we must seek our happiness outside ourselves. Our passions impel us outside, even when no objects present themselves to excite them. External objects tempt us of themselves, and call to us, even when we are not thinking of them. And thus philosophers have said in vain: "Retire within yourselves, you will find your good there." We do not believe them, and those who believe them are the most empty and the most foolish.

465. The Stoics say, "Retire within yourselves; it is there you will find your rest."

And that is not true.

Others say, "Go out of yourselves; seek happiness in amusement." And this is not true. Illness comes.

Happiness is neither without us nor within us. It is in God, both without us and within us.

There are no security issues in uTorrent 2.2.1. Which begs the question, why do freetard clients have them constantly?
Torrenting should be a simple and secure system. You have a hash of the torrent with the list of pieces; you then query the tracker as to who is broadcasting that they're active on the torrent, you then connect to the peers, ask them which pieces they have, ask them for the ones you need, and you hash check the pieces they send you to confirm it's nothing except the data you're expecting. Nothing about this communication should allow them to run code on your PC. It can all be sanitized.

I've had a T420 running Ubuntu for years and it's been great.

Recently, it stopped suspending when the lid is closed. I think this happened with the upgrade to Ubuntu 25.04 (Plucky).

I've gone through the typical troubleshooting. It's configured to suspend on lid close, but it looks like the lid closed event never even fires.

acpi_listen doesn't show any lid event.

/proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state exists and says "state: open".

journalctl | grep -i " lid " shows "FuPluginUpower failed to query lid state". More recent entries say "kernel: input: Lid Switch as /devices/LNXSYSTM: 00/LYNXSYBUS:00:PNP0C0D:00/input/input0".

Any ideas?

I got a T580 from ebay for $350. 16gb of ram and 500gb nvime hard drive. I didnt realize it had two batteries which I needed for my use case. I’m super happy and glad I fell for the meme. What should I do with it?

no but any oled worth its salt has BFI

>>107785915
not equivalent since you need 240Hz to get 120Hz effective refresh rate with BFI. I know it's marketing but they're talking about 360Hz providing over 1000Hz effective refresh rate

>it's just a blob of chemicals how can it be intelligent?
reductionism isnt an argument

>>107786739
the chemical interactions in the brain are infinitely more complex than matmul. LLMs aren't intelligent. They won't even concoct a response unless you prompt them. You think an intelligent system would completely shut off like that unless it's "turned on"?

It isn't. ODEs might be.

cellular modems in laptops running windows aren't able to be used for calls/texts. they're only for data purposes. i don't know what the situation is for linux but it probably isn't much different.
believe me, if you could have a pc and phone in one device (not jeetdroid or ios) people would've been all over it, at least a decent amount

>>107787062
i bring my phone with sim card in a car and use data to use internet and i can also call, SO WHY NOT ON A NETBOOK YOU BASTARD JUST ADD THE SLOT TO THE BOARD OR SOMETHING DAMN!!!!!!!

>if you could have a pc and phone in one device (not jeetdroid or ios) people would've been all over it, at least a decent amount
thats not how normaloids operate

there are plenty of devices like that on the market
there are tablets as well
even modern smartphones couldve been that very easily with market pressure(just look at n900, thats basically a minicomputer in a phone form factor)
remember how i just wrote about smartphones? well there are droid distributions like lineage and graphene that are basically like desktop OS and there is a fucking postmarketos that is LITERALLY a desktop OS for mobile devices
there are linux phones as well

and yet NOBODY gives a shit about anything aforementioned aside from a few small communities of giganerds dedicated to these things

the kettle buys ONLY the socially acceptable slop shilled by ads, corpos that simply force them to buy it by leveraging their monopoly status and their peers that simply treat tech as an ingroup status thing

They are doing fine now. Nearly all PCs, n desktop or laptops are made my Intel. The do need to get their act together or they really risk into bankruptcy due to their fabs being unprofitable right now. Although you need to accout how expensive new nodes are.

they're loosing hard on desktop.
laptops is their last comsumer bastion, but that's ignoring non-windows laptops (mac, chromebook) which have become more popular. they still have a ton of exclusive deals with dell and lenovo to force their laptops to use intel's. however intel sells their cpus at a bargain.

they're still doing well on servers, but amd and nvidia have started to make their own server cpu and are slowly taking over the market.
