For 30 years, productivity sky-rocketed with the advancement of automation and computing. Meanwhile, a decline in longevity was observed, correlated to sleep depravation. Productivity improvement goes to the owners class' pockets, sleep benefits the workers health.

For 30 years, productivity skyrocketed through automation, yet longevity plummeted as a direct result of sleep deprivation. While these gains accrue to the owner class, sleep remains an undervalued element of the worker's health. We are trading life expectancy for chump change.

i was under the impression life expectancy has been steadily increasing over the last century, where are these quotes from? and which date?

That said, in Canada working class started loosing life expentancy for the 3rd year in a row, and WHO figures show a decline in improvement of life expentancy globally. But hey, I am just a no-one on the internet spewing bs :)

replied to:

a decline in the improvement of life expectancy isn't the same as a decline in life expectancy, it's just that it's improving less fast now, we might be reaching biological limits however?

replied to:

We tought for years that there was a biological ceiling for sprinters or marathon runners for example, with research backing it, but every one record was shattered. I tend to be cautious of biological explanations.

I am pretty sure confience is what is at work in my case. Did you try something specific to improve in that regard?

replied to:

Isn't the medical advancements in preventive medicine and accessibility to healthcare increases the life expectancy?

Having spent the last 12 months using HTMX in $day_job, after 5 years with react, I have come to the opinion that whilst large amounts of JS and CSS are not necessarily wrong, they should be reserved for progressively extending the platform with a composable set of generic UI primitives that build out a cohesive design language — encoding business logic (including routing) there is generally a mistake

Introduced an MCP server this morning for the app I'm working on (getonmain.com), based on a user request. Curious to see how/if folks use it.

continued:

Currently it provides a single read-only tool that lets agents fetch all the data in Main about the user's home (details about the home itself, systems/appliances, documents, any repairs they've logged). I think it could get interesting once we provide additional tools for logging repairs, upgrades, and more into the home's memory.

Compared to other apps which all build their own AI chat features, I wonder if the move could be to cede ground on this arms race and focus on building other features that add value for our users. Feels like a "commoditize your complement" situation.

Applied to an L5 software engineering role via e-mail and without any other contact I received back a bunch of questions that clearly look like they're aimed at L6 or even L7. Not sure what to do with that so I withdrew. Briefly considered answering them but was weirded out.

és így nem kell egy ilyen zöld modulba applikált, baszott nagy integrált chipet venni hozzá, pedig nem is néz ki rosszul, de jól sem

and that way you don't have to buy a fucking big integrated chip applied to a green module, even though it doesn't look bad, but it doesn't look good either

Putting a slide deck together (outside of work), despite agreeing with Tufte on this matter. I’ll also create a handout that tells the story better than the slides and deliver that, too, but was asked to produce a slide deck, and I think that’s part of the “effort theater.” Using Beamer for the slides, but not a theme that looks like Beamer because humans have eyes.

replied to:

Haha. Seems necessary but not sufficient. Isn’t being victorious part of it, too?

replied to:

That's definitely the common knowledge but I'm starting to think that victory -> writing about it has it backwards in a lot of cases, esp in modern corporate life.

good one liner :D makes me wanna write things down
