Ha! I made this. I’m not a robot either :)

Author here, wild to see this at the top of HN!

Pressing “L” enables (very) verbose logging in the dev console and prints much of the sql being executed.

Rather than juggling your parent’s __init__ on another thread, it’s usually clearer to:

1. Keep all of your object–initialization in the main thread (i.e. call super().__init__() synchronously).

2. Defer any ZMQ socket creation that you actually use in the background thread into the thread itself.

yeah, this just feels like one of those things that's begging for a lazy (on first use) initialization. if you can't share or transfer the socket between threads in the first place, then your code will definitionally not be planning to use the object in the main thread.

This compounds with each _team_ modeling the work in jira/excel too!

Through the arm, I believe, is still the way it’s performed today!

Maybe leading with a stick instead of a carrot isn’t the right approach?

It's hard to carrot already-wealthy prisoners.

For average folks, sure.

I don’t know, I feel like there is much more room for positive incentives than negative. Prisons put people on a pretty level playing field.

Like, the well behaved could be served pork chops and peas instead of slop and mush.

Have you ever experienced prison yourself or through someone close? Prisons don't put people on a level playing field at all. It is significantly more comfortable to be rich in prison than poor in prison.

When Forest Gump said “I’m pretty tired, I think I’ll go home now” was he breaking an obligation to keep running just because others were following him?

If I go for a jog, and a bunch of people start jogging behind me that I didn’t solicit in any way, then no… it is not rude of me to just stop jogging and go home without saying anything to them.

If you spent many hours, days, months with them it would be. Come on.

Why? Why does doing something in public for a long time create an obligation to people who see me do it.

They're doing it with you, so you should at least say goodbye.

I don't know what I can say for "why" other than go find a manners book and a philosophy book.

Exactly. A modicum of respect is all I expect.

The impacts of this on today’s music is unreal.

WWOZ is the local station and its djs are musical historians.

We did this in elementary school in Seattle. I feel like the muscle memory might still be there!
