Sounds like the idea of "obedience to the unenforceable" - the unwritten rules of society that we comply by personal choice. This Econtalk episode has a nice discussion about it - https://www.econtalk.org/michael-munger-on-obedience-to-the-...

That's also the contingency plan for the national postal service in Brazil (ECT/Correios) - a state-owned company. My father, an instructor, had to drive a van around the town to deliver express packages during strikes. The strangest thing about these situations was that old employees (a few were 80+) were also assigned to package delivery duties and some of them would end up getting lost. This was before cellphones were widespread, so Dad and his colleagues would go searching for the missing employees after lunchtime and bring them back to the office.

Not sure if it would help, but if you're around the Berlin area and want to grab a beer or coffee with another guy that left academia for the industry (and still has delusions that someday will submit his thesis), hit me up.

Smells like a "submarine"-type PR story (http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html) for chess.com.

I'm the same, but I found out I really like rucking (weighted marches). Grab a backpack, put some weight on it, and take a walk around your neighborhood while listening to a good podcast. Currently I walk 4-5km with a 14kg backpack, 3-4x a week. Some more details here: https://www.artofmanliness.com/health-fitness/fitness/the-be...

#2: I believe they encrypt the backed-up tokens locally with a user-provided password [1]. The same password must be used to restore the backup. A malicious agent that "clones" your simcard will be able to obtain only an encrypted copy of your token data. This seems secure enough for me, but maybe I'm missing something.

Interesting. There are plans for this "Bootcamp" to happen again next year? I live somewhat close from Chile (Brazil), but I plan to get my master's degree before going in a adventure in another country :)
