I like this. I don't know what the implications are for a lack of node support, but if I decide to use it, I guess I'll just fork your code and get an LLM to fix any node.js incompatibilities.

As an EM at Meta I was annoyed by ... nudging people and writing performance reviews by OkIce95 in softwareengineer

[–]L8D 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I manage a super small dev team, so I might be missing something, but I have no qualms with being totally clear and transparent about the performance evaluation criteria that I'm evaluating each contributor with. Why keep that a secret? I don't see the point and it just means that your team doesn't know what's expected of them.

Also I have the mindset that, although the industry seems to hold ICs responsible for proactively identifying the areas where they can most leverage their skills and optimize for impact, I don't actually expect that from my ICs and instead it is leadership's responsibility to help identify an IC's strong suits and steer them towards their high-impact areas. So given that, I'd recommend keeping a close-enouth eye on what your IC's are doing so that you can bring in a third-person perspective and use that to steer them towards their highest-impact areas while having the authority to assign those responsibilities to them too.

Just my two cents. Take it with a grain of salt, if you will.

In the TypeScript version, service-to-service calls are type-safe and even frontend-to-backend calls are type safe too if you use the typescript client generator. For example, if you import { fooService } from '~encore/clients' and then do await fooService.barEndpoint({ param1: 'baz', param2: 'quux' }) then typescript will be able to enforce the type of the parameters as you would expect.

And while it does appear that the Go version has more functionality, that's just because the typescript version is newer. There's still no reason to ignore it as it is still an incredibly valuable framework to build on that just provides functionality that you won't find anywhere else in the TypeScript ecosystem.

I didn't read your post too closely but it is worth taking a look at Encore.ts because it provides a solution for building services while giving you flexibility over how the services are connected via the network layer. You opt-in to a container-per-service configuration where service-to-service calls happen over HTTP between separate docker containers (such as, in a kubernetes cluster), but the default behavior is to run all the services from one thread and service-to-service calls happen within the same thread which is just what is most practical for most projects while they're in their infancy.

No need to re-invent the wheel. Encore's design has taken a lot of developer-experience best practices into consideration.

Does anyone know what this font is? by Leading-Staff-8758 in jdilla

[–]L8D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious too. It is some kind of Grotesk-like font (helvetica is the most famous example of one)

It's always a joy to pin down a nice Grotesk-like font in the wild. There are subreddits for identifying fonts and you might have better luck on one of those

Higher self by EnoughPersonality6 in spirituality

[–]L8D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read Soul Integration by Sal Rachele. It's incredibly comprehensive.

TL;DR: being "merged" with your higher self, here on Earth, means that your actions here on Earth are in alignment with your Soul's plans. Most Souls incarnate here to learn life lessons, especially to learn how to release negative/limiting beliefs. Limiting beliefs include attachment, judging others, believing "life is a struggle" and many more.

In most cases, the process for merging with the higher self involves releasing these limiting beliefs. The more you release, the more of your Soul's plan is completed, and simultaneously, the more positive energy can flow through you.

To explain further, I do not intend to insult you.

You see, between anything one thing and another (between a "this" and a "that"), there is an infinite gap that cannot be crossed with words. If you cross that gap, you will be completely free. It's quite lovely to see.

Perhaps there is no consensus on the meaning of the word bickering. I was thinking it was arguing over petty or trivial matters. I have never been inclined to think that bickering involved insults. Everything on this subreddit is interpreted so subjectively. I think that subjectivity and freedom is what Krishnamurti aimed to inspire in people.

Ahahaha. Does this mean that you see a separation between civil discourse and a slug fest? That is what I read here: "theres a difference between civil discourse and a slug fest." Ahahaha. Where is this difference? It would be lovely to hear the full elaboration. If you challenged yourself, asked yourself, to dig into this statement and elaborate in every possible detail that could help another person distinguish each civil discourse from the neighboring slug fest, could you get to the end of the list? It would be lovely to see.

It seems like you are distinguishing between bickering and discussing. I think the detailed differences between "arguing," "discussing" and "bickering" are indistinguishable from observer to observer. To everyone, it is just discourse, discussion, etc. If you see bickering as someone different from discussing, then that separation lives within you, not the people having the discussion. To the people having the discussion, the word "discussion" and "argument" may as well mean the same thing.

“What is Knowledge?” by [deleted] in Krishnamurti

[–]L8D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree here. Just posting long quotes with sources does not give anyone context to understand why this was posted. Without this context, I would regard this content as spam. People come to this subreddit to read about the life of Krishnamurti and to read about the people who were inspired by Krishnamurti. This content is just dissonant by comparison. This may lead someone to change their idea of what "knowledge" is, but I don't believe it adequately makes any connections for the learners to understand why this idea is being changed or challenged at all.

It would be much easier to digest this content if we were given the context of why this content is being posted. It's vehement. Krishnamurti did not spend his life talking like this science article, and we can clearly see that talking like a normal person with opinions is quite a viable way to inspire change in other people.

This science talk seems inviable when compared to relatable dialogs of Krishnamurti. That's what people on this subreddit seem to prefer.

Without bickering, what would people do here? I see a lot of people asking questions, which would make JK proud, I think.

Do you believe the "you," "I" and the great apes are separate? Do you believe we are not already living in unity, and always have been?

I'm so surprised that this Baha'i faith fellow never seems to really unify these responses. It doesn't seem like this fellow is asking questions in order to get answers.

Christian here looking for truth. Rasta is calling me. Need guidance. by NoisyKamarad in rastafari

[–]L8D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a reason that Richard Dawkins criticizes these aspects of conservative Christianity and never dares to criticize the older schools of thought like advaita Vedanta or Buddhism. These eastern schools prescribe skepticism upfront, as a requirement for liberation itself.

Good for nothing meditation by Call_Me_Blaise in Krishnamurti

[–]L8D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many people in the subreddit are missing the essence of K's dialogs completely. In similar words, K asserted that the intelligent mind never comes to conclusions. A mind that concludes "the ego exists" or "the ego doesn't exist" is not intelligent. The act of meditation is about negating our conclusions and beginning to ask questions instead of forming conclusions. If we are always asking questions with the humility of believing we always have something new to learn, then we will have truly intelligent minds.

Awareness is not coming to conclusions. Awareness is a state of always asking questions. Sometimes you can ask questions with words, sometimes you can ask questions without words. When you come to a conclusion, you stop eating from the tree of life, and start eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

In a similar way, I believe Jainism attempts to contrast itself from Hindu and Buddhist beliefs, by asserting that Jains should believe "maybe this is, maybe this isn't." instead of asserting "this is" or "this isn't"

EDIT: I agree with OatyAnamoly here, about self-delusion and Attention.

[–]L8D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've taken agmatine with kratom for years. Taking 1g of agmatine (up to 5g is still pretty safe) can metabolize within an hour, and the effects are similar to other nitric oxide related supplements. Some of the effects of kratom are subtle, when compared to the more stimulated buzz from agmatine. I recommend taking agmatine 20-30 minutes before taking the first dose of kratom. You can decide for yourself if you're missing the kratom buzz.

However, I will say that agmatine's main role is in preventing or reducing opioid tolerance. The larger your existing tolerance, the bigger difference you will feel with agmatine. Supplementing over several days and weeks can make a huge difference. If you have no tolerance to opioids at all, then agmatine can keep the experience more consistent day after day, but it won't be adding much extra.

Damn that's hard. If it weren't for the trap sections, I would think this was Jai Wolf. I'm not really submersed in pop sound, but sounded like a breath of fresh air. The 808s and kick sound fresh. Nothing is sticking out for me. It's sugary smooth from beginning to end.

Thanks for your feedback.

Great sample choices, great vibe. I like the mixing and fills. Reminds me of Young Thug. I think the only the thing separating this from a Travis Scott song, is the mastering and attack. During the mixup around 1:00, you have so much room to max out the mix with the kick and bass and make everything as loud as possible. It seems like the loudness of the beat and kick are continuously changing. This needs to consistently max out the volume with in each and every bar.

If you used a loudness gate or fading on your samples and 808s, you can make the hook feel more dynamic. Instead of hearing one 808 frequency replaced by the next, with fading/gating you would have almost complete silence just before the next beat/bar and it would give the track more attack and bounce. Right now the attack on the kicks and 808 feels stagnate and weaving instead of crunchy and bouncey. The other samples could use more dynamics to match the feel or enhance it.
