> I realize people are afraid they close loose subscribers/revenue, but trust me, the people who prefer PeerTube are most likely running adblockers anyway.

Doesn’t this just validate their fears?
I have a similar stance as the parent post, and it's mainly due to the pervasive secondary uses of access to privileged consumer-level data for advertising and marketing purposes.

Plenty of companies gain access to privileged information for a specific purpose, but utilize that privileged access in completely opaque ways to create secondary revenue streams. Unroll.me[1][2] is an example of this, as is the countless apps that ask for location services access for specific functionality within the app, but then resell that location data to third parties for ad/marketing/consumer intelligence purposes. With weather and news apps being the worst offenders.

Since you have a CPA on-staff, your usage may be bound by law[3] to not be used in such a manner. But I have no idea if so. And without that guarantee, it's pretty terrifying to give you direct access to my accounts. There's a whole lot of signal intelligence in that you can glean. If you're using something like Plaid for automatic transaction aggregation, they even come with several nifty prebuilt endpoints[4] for you to leverage that authorization to get a complete view of my assets, an estimate of my income, and a live view of all of my account balances. Outside of a relationship that has privacy and confidentiality guarantees enshrined in law, that isn't a level of insight I want to grant to third parties.

Just another example of how recent pop culture has the ability to program people to expect a certain narrative outcome given certain narrative preconditions. It's why advertising works: "Buy this soap, you'll get women." Similarly, "I watched this show and this thing they are doing produces this outcome, the show said so."
They raise the rates indirectly, by selling T-bills on the secondary market, which simply sucks money out of the circulation. (Which makes simply makes debt more expensive, and that leads to T-rate increase.)

> also the whole trope about 'China owning most of US T-bills' is actually false,

They are just the largest foreign holder, and it was noteworthy because of the rapid rise in the distribution of foreign debt holders.

Anyway, my thought process was that even if the US money supply drops, it should not influence T-bill auctions, because the whole world likes it (due to being the least risky investment). But it's very likely that the T-rate was low because banks and other investors exploited the low FFR. Now that's gone, the system settled in a higher equilibrium (as foreign and other investors had no real reason to change their behavior).
I'm not a California resident, so I'm actually curious and definitely not trying to have an opinion:

I've heard from co-workers in California that PG&E has routinely been regulated to keep prices at a certain level, and this has hampered their ability to perform proper maintenance. Is this a remotely fair assessment, or grossly incorrect?
This has been attempted, and generally leads to disaster. When a bill for increased spending is introduced (for say, better roads, more schools, etc), it receives widespread support from the voters, and easily passes. When another bill which raises taxes (in order to pay for the previous purchases) is introduced, it enjoys widespread condemnation, and is soundly defeated. Bankruptcy ensues.

When I started the article, it seemed like a very unlikely attack, however it's actually quite reasonable and something I've actually ran into before. I use a lot of different addresses and when I've had to recover them using the master seed, I had to brute force search for them all (easy on my computer, but probably far worse on such a small device.)

Kudos on finding an attack vector from something that seems so small.
But you cannot deposit money into any arbitrary U.S. bank account using ACH. For every account that you want to make transfers to, you first need to sign a bunch of forms. With the European IBAN system, no permissions or forms are needed to make deposits to a new arbitrary account.

You're absolutely right, but what I'm trying to get across is that the CPU design problem has largely shifted from being capacity-based to being efficiency-based, and this happened pretty silently in 2006. Sure there is still innovation capacity in the CPU industry, but it's qualitatively not the same kind of approach which evolved the Apple 2 into the iPhone.

Personally I look at the energy efficiency of the human brain and think there's a lot of performance improvement to be done for synthetic processors, I just don't think major developments will be as easy, fast, or predictable as they were before individual CPUs kind of stopped getting faster.

Probably one of our users can better to attest to this than I can, but it's really easy for someone with that background to maintain. For installation, we've put a ton of effort over the years into making all the commands Just Work if you copy-paste them, adding custom error messages if you run something as root you shouldn't, etc.

And we put a ton of effort into making the upgrades, even for major releases like this, be a single command that Just Works for almost everyone.

I know this because I personally respond to every single report of issues installing/upgrading Zulip and have been making changes (even if the issue is basically user error) after most of them to help ensure they don't happen again for a few years now.

That said, if you don't want to deal with doing that work, Zulip Cloud is very reasonably priced for situations where all the users are employees (compared to payroll, it's effectively free) and for other use cases, we have steep discounts (e.g. free for open source, a huge discount for education, etc.).

She applied a basic rule for which I buy anything that isn't essential. It might seem like a dumb rule, but discovering that buying stuff doesn't make you happy, and finding a way to break the buying stuff addiction, is really fantastic to me, especially because I believe that contentment and happiness are essential measures of economic success.

I hope it spreads quickly. I think it will help a lot of people who own too much stuff, and find themselves exhausted due to it.

It's easier because it doesn't require any sign-up. You simply download some compatible software and you're ready to run. Every other of the 87 services requires sign-up, which means filling out forms and uploading photos of ID.

Here's one from today that I'd bet at least 25% of the HN gestalt would be at least willing to consider as possibly containing a lot of truth:

https://i.redd.it/yqphrb19uhj21.png

For your convenience, the article in question: https://theintercept.com/2019/01/11/as-democratic-elites-reu...

Is the article correct? Who knows. I'm neither endorsing nor criticizing the content directly right now. Is it fringe lunatic nonsense that should be censored lest some right-thinking person be deceived into injecting themselves with bleach or something? Not even remotely. I feel I'm being conservative with the 25% estimate, too. Anyone over about 30 has all the data they need to ask some pointy questions about exactly how committed the various parties are to anti-war positions, rather than co-opting them when convenient and discarding them the second they aren't.

(I am assuming that Facebook is very likely incorrect in labelling that as spam. It doesn't look like true spam, it looks like it's participation in a conversation. But I admit I can't prove it. I also admit that at this point my priors give me very little reason to trust Facebook over even a random internet poster.)

The Facebook censorship frontier is much closer than I suspect most people reading this comment here would suspect.

Heh, my strategy for winning hackathons is the opposite: assign one or two people to a flashy presentation, the rest just go have fun eating and drinking and having some fun playing with a technology you've been eyeing. Prototypes don't win the hackathons I've been to anyway, so might as well let the idea guy do their thing and have some fun yourself.
This really makes me curious about what is served at the lunch counter at McDonald's corporate headquarters.

I used to work at the corporate headquarters of a company that owns several chain restaurants. The cafeteria there didn't have any of the chain food dishes, but was very high quality as far as office cafeterias go. They had a test kitchen there also and sometimes they'd give out free meals of the stuff they were testing.

There is no chicken-egg problem. There is no chicken. There is no reason for anyone to use bitcoin except for a tiny niche.

The comparison to Linux Desktop is correct but for the wrong reasons. Like with bitcoin, nobody has any reason to switch to a Linux Desktop since the existing solutions already do everything people want. If you're non-technical and are already comfortable with Windows or Mac, you gain nothing by switching to a linux desktop.

$10/month undersells both the value of your service and your cost to provide it. My first thought was : either they're going to go out of business or they are going to raise prices.

so, all workers at Lyft have to do continue to grow and protec to stand point performance, at some point company will face to choose between continue to grow and except paying extra cost whatever AWS bills to them or stop growing until contract end. i guess we all gonna watch.

Good question. But I also believe some of it requires being proactive.

1) Keep in mind that during the interview process, you are (read: should be) interviewing them, as much as they are interviewing you. If you sense they don't realize / respect you being an equal in the process then put a note under "red flags."

2) Along the same lines, listen careful during the process. Listen for that is said, and often more importantly, what is not said. Again, be mindful of how they speak with you or maybe it's more like at.

3) Every process has at least one Q&A segment. Prepare some questions. Bring them along printed out if you want. When the moment comes, ask away. If you'd like to speak to current team member(s) ask for that. If you sense friction, that's at least a partial answer. Noted in the red flags column of your "post-date" analysis.

Of course this won't uncover everything, but it's a start. It's also likely yo generate more questions. Do a follow up, if necessary.

For example, yesterday I had a phone call with the head of small marketing / design agency about some PT (but regular) contract dev work. During the course of the conversation I said something like "...and perhaps in time, there can be a junior dev who can take care of some of the more simplistic stuff and I'll focus on the heavy lifting..."

His reply was along the lines of "That doesn't interest me. I'm looking to deal with only one person."

However, what I heard was: "This guy is not aware of the fact that I want to outgrow the mundane stuff and/or I might be willing and able to move into a supervisor position. It also sounds like he's not interested in growing the business in ways where there would be more heavy (dev) lifting. Perhaps my ambitions and desire to grow wouldn't be a good fit."

We're still talking. But that one answer told me __a lot__ even if he didn't realize it. Those are the type of "not said" things I'm talking about.

</sidebar>

Ultimately, you are both looking to enter into a LTR. They should want - should things move forward - you to be comfortable and confident they are "the one" for you. If they are resistant to you having __relevant__ and __professional__ questions, then again, that's a signal. Make note of it, and weight it when the time comes.
This is absurd. A waste of 5 minutes.

> I'm not sure I follow. How does rejecting business development and turning away thousands of high paying (and thus, paying high taxes) jobs help reduce poverty?

Because allowing this kind of behavior creates a race to the bottom, where the end state is that no company ever pays any tax. The only way to avoid this situation, if you don't have a higher-level government entity banning it entirely, is to grow a backbone and say no. And it isn't as if NYC is hurting for jobs.

> How are we supposed to help the impoverished and build the middle class if we destroy job opportunities?

I can just as easily flip this question on its head: how are we supposed to help the impoverished if we allow companies to play hostage-taker with jobs and ultimately drive their tax rate to 0?
You need to sign up for a bank account if you want to use bitcoin in practice. Meeting up with random people in the streets to trade money for digital currency is definitely not easier than signing up for Venmo.
Ding ding ding!

San Fransisco has a housing crisis BECAUSE of all the $150k jobs. How are the $65k people supposed to find an affordable place to live? You've got thousands of wealthy people, tens of thousands of high-end places to live, and hundreds of thousands of middle class people that can't afford rent. Meanwhile you've got renters who can't make a buck off poor people, and can't find any wealthy people to move in!

The presence of wealth doesn't CAUSE poverty. It exacerbates poverty. It's just incompatible in the same ecosystem.

You don't see any problems with the nations capital for homelessness handing $3,000,000,000 to a company that's already worth $1,000,000,000,000? Keep in mind that NONE of those homeless people will be getting job offers to work at Amazon. Amazon will truck and fly (already wealthy) talent into NYC to hire. You're not "improving" NYC poverty, you're just diluting it with existing wealth from elsewhere.

I think it is wrong to say that a cheaper college is better than a free one. I will explain why. Even the cheapest colleges require very high prices for education, which is very difficult for some families. Prices in the field of paid tuition do not vary greatly. But when studying at a free college, a student gets about the same knowledge but at the same time saves money. In my case, it was exactly that and all the money I saved I spent on study needs, such as writing control papers, term papers, essays https://gpalabs.com/essay-writing/buy-essay.html .. So think about how you should decide on admission to a paid college ..
