Totally agree with what you said. I'd like to add that another part of the break-even game is that often all it takes is for your competitor to take one step in the wrong direction, for you to become profitable.

When Blockbuster (for example) took on streaming to compete with Netflix, not only were they far too late, but they also charged a fee for movies. People didn't bother because Netflix had unlimited streaming. They also had a poor catalog if I recall correctly. Too many mistakes.
Fixed routes and last mile. Buses are particularly poor on that.

I'm thinking on mini buses, 10 to 20 pax, with flexible dispatching. A service where you tell where you live, where you want to get to every workday at what time. Algorithms pool people and make sure you don't have to walk more than a few minutes. Nor wait for long before journey or arrive too early.

I've quit, but not entirely. I just unfollowed everyone. My newsfeed is blank, it doesn't even have ads amazingly. Without the feed, I still get the upsides of Facebook (I can communicate with people on a platform they almost all use, I can organise events easily), but (along with a suite of tracker-blockers) remove almost all the downsides.

What do you use as your main development system? I'm on an Arch Linux VM, so I have an up-to-date Vim 8.0.

And since Vim 8.0 does terminals and asynchronous jobs now, I don't see much value for Neovim unless you have an IDE that integrates Neovim via its API.
Many of them are abroad.
I'll give the monospaced one a try in the terminal and see how it goes.
IMHO, the big difference between the Uber/Tesla approach and the Waymo approach is that Waymo seems to understand that this is an extremely hard problem to solve. Uber/Tesla seem to be happy with getting 90% of the way there and make headlines. I don't think either Uber or Tesla have really committed to the technology the way Waymo has.

As far as the legacy auto-makers, it's really unclear what they are up to. I think they appreciate the difficulty, but probably don't have the skills to move faster than Google.
Facebook is the worst offender. It's basically a group-think echo-chamber creation machine. With the identify politics in full bloom it's become orders of magnitude more insane. I've seen people demand their "friend" to apologise for their beliefs or they will tell their employer, as if there was anything of substance to tell. Most people are now afraid to express their religious/political/social/philosophical beliefs, cause it always ends up in a shitstorm, posturing and offense.

Only after being on FB I realized how thin-skinned most people are online, it's impossible to have a rational conversation on FB anymore. Somehow if you say same things face-to-face, nothing happens.

Maybe I'm desensitized by years of flamewars on various websites, almost nothing triggers me, and it seems like everything triggers most people these days, at least on FB.

> Why were those documents ever on an Internet-connected device?

Because that's the whole purpose of 0bin.net. The fact it's a good practice or not has nothing to do with the current thread. Google should not follow links in my emails. Browsing links can have a lots of side effects, and given how little my clients knows about IT, their mails provider should not mess with their mails.

> Honestly, if you didn't know back then that Google was primarily an advertising company, and that they would scan your emails to generate targeted ads, you obviously weren't following along, which seems weird considering your obvious focus on security on privacy.

So your argument is that I made bad decisions so I should not criticism Google's behavior ? That's a weird stance.

IMO they really need to do a revenue share. Big influencers (think youtube style ad revenue) would make enough to move on to the platform. Smaller users would still get the occasional 5 bucks, enough to keep people interested. Yes they'd get spam, fraud, and all that good stuff.

Ok, your salary estimates for SF are completely off.

Let me level set by saying I went to a bootcamp and have two years experience. I make 165K (25% higher than 130) and my 3 close bootcamp colleagues all make around the same. I don’t work for some hot company like Google - 95% of people reading this haven’t heard of us. And just to be clear this is all liquid compensation (cash, bonus, and public stock equity).

So yes for me and my closest friends with comparable experience SF is by far the best option economically.

Note as others have mentioned; I don’t think that will be the case when I start a family.

They could. Or they could just do Google Secretary (because they think it's better) and let competitors try Google Search under a different brand.

Pretty much what's happened really. Turns out not that many people want Google Search when they have the choice of Google Secretary instead.
>Of course Google serves different results to different users, that's why they're the market leader in search. The entire job of a search engine is to return relevant results

yea, yea yea... I moved to DDG when Google stopped returning me relevant results. Not because I'm afraid of Google knowing too much, I mostly search for code/configuration problems. DDG proved to me that it has more relevant and more helpful information than Google for problems I search for.

Plenty of times Google returns me THE SAME results for different, but similar query, I change 3 from 6 words (to synonyms), and I get the same very results, that are irrelevant to my problem and query. I see them because they have best SEO and meta keywords and 5 stars under the title, or because they are similar to what I searched for 15minutes ago.

I found a bug in Android UI. I spent almost a day looking for a solution or tips how to do that thing. Google was literally useless, it could just show me links from SO that people had the same problem, google-based mailing lists, but no fix. I searched for the same thing in DDG - BANG - first result was from some crappy blog that author couldn't spell words properly, it was looking like websites from early 00's. I had a source code solution for my problem. Google shows me what Google wants me to see, well optimized websites, nice looking, fast loading on mobile, sites that cooperate with google big data plan, sites that use GA, Google Ads and AMP.

I don't want magic personalized results based on suggestion of a vibrator I was searching for 2 days ago, I want most relevant results to what I search for now.
If you've ever thought about doing contract development work this blog post is worth the read.
This. My mother used to teach classes in primary school how to use the computer and the internet, but appears to have forgotten most of this when browser user interfaces started prioritizing Google search. Now it's hard to get her to navigate to a URL and (even using Google) she struggles to find the information she needs because she's not used to accurate queries anymore.

I get the value proposition of Google Search, just like I get the value proposition of Velcro shoes and microwave dinners. The problem is not with the face value of these technologies, but with their assumptions and implications. In spite of Silicon Valley rhetoric, these technologies do not empower and liberate their users but make them dependent on them. The more you outsource your thinking to algorithms, the more vulnerable you are to being controlled by them.

How did you count 30? Are we looking at the same picture?

I counted 9.

- channel is muted and message not in a thread the user is subscribed to

- user in dnd-mode and there's no dnd-override

- this is a @channel mention but @channel mentions are suppressed

- message is for a thread user is subscribed to but channel notification perf is nothing

- notification preference for device is set to "never"

- @here mention but user is not active (not here)

- highlighted word in a thread message the user is not subscribed to

- channel notification preference is set to nothing

- I couldn't understand this condition (@mention in a comment on a file not owned by user?)

You can check these conditions sequentially and if any of them match, return false.

The last statement in the function would just `return true`.

The function needs a struct representing user preferences and a struct representing what's being currently parsed as inputs.

It's really not that complicated.
Been there. Remember getting a call from a data center I'd never heard of asking to speak to the old sysadmin who'd quit 18 month ago. They asked something about the rack of servers we had in their data center, I replied "what rack? what data center?" Turns out that 2-3 years previous the old sysadmin had set up a dozen servers in their data center for some project (that I'd never heard of) that very shortly afterwards first got pushed forwards and then canceled. Everybody involved in that project promptly moved on to other things and no remembered to cancel the deal with the data center. So for two years we'd been paying quite a lot of money to keep a completely idle rack of pretty expensive servers and apparently no one noticed.
This is a very important comment. It is the type of idea that today will be criticized as outlandish conspiracy, tomorrow will be questioned, and the next day will be accepted as a 'nothing we can do about it now.'

Or maybe they're somewhat aware that in essence "nobody cares"? All in all this service started out as a socially acceptable way to stalk people.

I have a friend who's wall consists mostly of political commentary. Clearly what he wants is attention, because any reaction to his posts is usually met with a textwall of his views, which anyone acquainted with him is aware of, so no discussion aside from the usual fecal matter throwing is possible.

With time less and less people engaged him and currently his posts get no likes or comments. He became a one-man echo chamber.

New Processor Combines Intel CPU with Custom Discrete Graphics from AMD
>This is preventable if you specify fully what you actually want to do.

In this case it was fully specified that sudo should run rm with all privileges, which in turn will recursively deleted the root filesystem.

The entire execution is fully specified and will execute without fault. There is no mistake in `sudo rm -rf /`.

Logical faults may not be preventable with provers, such as when underlying assumptions are wrong.

For example, a prover could have verified the parity library as fully okay because it assumes that the initialization function will not be called without delegation. This underlying assumption X -!> Y (X cannot lead to Y) is wrong and X -> Y is the case but the prover only verified that Y -!> X.

Provers essentially duplicate your code, forcing you to express the solution and/or problem twice such that if you basically typo on the way, one of the pieces will complain about the other.

But it cannot and is incapable of preventing higher level mistakes.

There's a good comparison between multiple png optimizers here: http://optipng.sourceforge.net/pngtech/optipng.html

> pngcrush by Glenn Randers-Pehrson, available at http://pmt.sourceforge.net/pngcrush, is an open-source program that iterates over PNG filters and zlib (Deflate) parameters, compresses the image repeatedly using each parameter configuration, and chooses the configuration that yields the smallest compressed (IDAT) output. At the user's option, the program can explore few (below 10) or many (a brute-force traversal over more than 100) configurations. The method of selecting the parameters for "few" trials is particularly effective, and the use of a brute-force traversal is generally not recommended.

In addition, pngcrush offers a multitude of extra features, such as recovery of erroneous PNG files (e.g. files containing bad CRCs), and chunk-level editing of PNG meta-data.

He literally asked several times for reasons to switch to nvim, but your answer basically amounts to "well because it's not hard". Telling him upgrading is not hard, or that it is compatible with vim gives him nothing.

First, those apps are not your customers and you aren't fooling anyone.

Even if they were today, your VCs and future investors will not allow you to turn down profits and only sell to health or self-improvement apps.

If your product is successful, you have a fiduciary duty. If you fail in that duty, you will either be removed, or potentially even sued. And then it will be too late, because you already built it, and someone else will have taken the wheel. And they will maximize it, inevitably weaponizing it against the population.
