Yeah. interpreting wtf your 'guy' is trying to convey is half the battle. We dont do sprint planning. We listen to a madman rant for a couple hours about shit and then try to come up with some semblance of a sprint plan lol.

After a while of that I stopped caring. Just work on what they tell you , who cares if it's a sinking ship. After you try to right the ship for 5 years you stop caring as much. As long as you still get that $$ twice a month :p
The most useful ones are already free. So, probably none that I don't already. Development resources (free, hosted by companies with incentive to spread the info). Wikipedia. Rarely I still manage to stumble on some non-monetized hobbyist sites, despite their being hard to find under current search algos (infrequent updates, no attention to SEO, no padding things to look like "more unique content per page" to Google), and that's nice.

The rest I already pay for (Netflix, which just barely skates by being so cheap), are essentially utility things (bank sites, government), or are so low-value I'd probably be better off not using them, frankly. Or are simply piracy sites (library genesis / scihub), for that matter.

Any topic I scratch the surface of in online research I end up at excellent, totally free (not ad supported) resources or finding that I need to track down some books, or some combination of the two.

Phosphorous from Saharan desert sands fertilizes the Amazon.

Messing with ecosystems on a large scale will probably have serious side effects which we haven’t investigated; better to err on the side of caution.
People online say this but I'm pretty sure it's nonsense. The word right now is self driving cars won't be working for quite a while since they're nowhere near solving for rain and snow.
Technical interpretation of the name would indeed exclude it: if W=false, and X=false, then W^X does not hold (W^X also evaluates to false).
Glassdoor, LinkedIn, and emailing previous employees. Current employees aren’t going to give you the low down.
> You've just said that some orgs publish in Elsevier because grants and tenure.

Ah, sorry, I was unclear there. It's not organisations that publish somewhere, but researchers.

And some people are mad at researchers for continuing to publish there, but I find it hard to fault them, because they would probably no longer be researchers if they didn't.

People are also mad at funders for that, but it's hard for any individual funder to change that. For example, a coalition of primarily European funders is currently trying to change the incentives, and they get a lot of setbacks from European researchers who feel that when they get banned from publishing in paywalled journals, they will miss out on foreign career opportunities - which have become an almost required part of any academic career.

(Note that it's not "just to get a better job". It's to have a job in academia at all. The field is very competitive. There's probably people who've taken a stand, but they're likely to have left academia.)

Yeah, this shows Lyft as having gone through ten rounds of funding with the last one being a "Series I" round. I've not seen that too often before!
I posted this in another thread, but curious to get your thoughts.

2017 Compared to 2018

* As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue decreased from 62% to 58%.

* As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased from 54% to 37%.

These seem to be positive signs.

Um. But did even Steve Jobs push for it the entire time?

Y'know, every time someone comes to me with a revolutionary idea - I answer to them with a long paragraph about the next big thing: it's called "teleportation".

Imagine how the world will change with us being able to teleport? Isn't that great? Y'see, I am not that smart - would you like to help me with this awesome idea?
I don't think anyone proposes that Bezos is "entitled to any and all benefit" that Amazon produces, either. Indeed his wealth is tied merely to his initial ownership with almost no additional wealth flowing to him in terms of cash or stock from Amazon. Whether or not warehouse workers should get paid more seems to be a very different issue than whether Bezos deserves to continue to own the stock he literally created.

Also your metaphor sucks. If you think that wage workers are on par with slaves, I suggest you look a bit more into what slavery actually is.

Those gifs are some damn-good marketing! A soft dimming like that always reminds me of building a "breathing light" with an Arduino.

With something this unique, I'm certain there will be knock-offs available on Amazon by August. I wonder how Casper will take that into account.
Then they have to pay for the cars.
a major point people dont consider is the HOA. Speaking from experience of a friend who was a plumber for one of these condo complexes:

In a condo, if an HOA is required to fix plumbing or landscaping, paint, or roofing, then it comes out of the CAM fees paid by the residents. However, if the HOA does NOT pay for that work, or tries to stiff the construction firm they hire, the construction company can take out a lien on the property until their bill is paid.

That lien means you cannot sell your condo until the HOA pays their debt. In my friends case, the HOA had blown all their CAM money on lavish vacations and dinners for key members of the HOA board. They had no money to pay for a sewage repair job, and left 54 members of the housing compex stuck with a $20,000USD repair bill. After a grisly court battle the HOA was disbanded, CAM fees were agreed to be paid directly to the plumbing company for the year, and the complex went into foreclosure after the debt had been paid as most tenants had sold.
This sort of ties in nicely to the "WOKE BRANDS" video[1] that came out recently from H. Bomberguy. It's a bit lengthy but it goes into a very poignant discussion of the problematic underpinnings of brands adopting a particular aspect of a "personality", namely a hypocritical social conscience.

> In 2017 and 2018, certain of our named executive officers provided rides to riders using the Lyft platform in a similar manner as other drivers. We believe that these driving activities provide the named executive officers with substantial practical insight into how our platform serves drivers.

I thought this was a pretty interesting point. I was about to call it dogfooding but not quite, since it's more of an experience check than a crucial internal usage.

> You, dead, are so much better than anyone else alive.

Look at Feynman! Who knew!

I wonder what happens to our bodies, physically/chemically when one is in love to that degree. I know only very superficially. Anyone to suggest a book on this topic? Preferably one that backs its statements.
"We can't sit there and leave interests rates low forever" ...says who? What force dictates that the equilibrium for rates must be higher? Yes that's historically been the case but that doesn't mean that's the right path for us now and in the future. I would argue that low interest rates will be and need to be the new normal.

Interest is the ultimate rent seeking activity. The fed funds rate is a form of price fixing for banks whereby they collectively decide how much interest they can extract from the economy without killing it. Why must this be the case, the economy should be allowed to run much hotter for much longer.

Inflation is less of a risk now because of technology + globalization, right now we are experiencing significant deflationary pressure as products and labor converge towards global pricing/wages.

Our economy and government will be in very serious trouble if we have to pay higher interest on our significant national debt, so the government has a big interest (pun intended) in keeping rates low to protect its own financial solvency.

Finally, high interest rates imply money is scarce and that's far from the case now. Having large sums of money is not what it used to be, you're competing against a lot of other people and organizations seeking to deploy that money productively for a return. This generates downward pressure on market interest rates as evidenced by European Central banks going below zero to negative rates.

Ask HN: What's the oldest software you still use today?
Inspired by the thread on ever-lasting software.
Two nights ago at work a co-worker was asking me why I seem unafraid to take risks; after all I am the sole income earner for my household.

I explained that I’ve mostly lived my life with the theory that “they fire everyone eventually” and so when, not long after graduation in mid-1999, I experienced the dotcom implosion, 9/11, the extreme rise of offshoring (and the endless lies from management that their goals were not, at the time, to offshore all engineering for cost), and so on, the world was living up to my expectations. While I’ve never been fired or laid off, I knew people - very good people - who did and went 6 to 18 months unable to find a new job in a different Silicon Valley - one of layoffs and hiring freezes that didn’t thaw for years, one where startup investment plummeted and the stock gains evaporated. I spent a great deal of time in my pre-CS degree days involved in the rise and crash of Japan in the nineties and the US recession around that time; I’d seen it before and so I lived my life assuming I’d need to weather it.

Wealth, security and opportunity evaporated at once. They are not unrelated.

Co-worker is young. He noted that when he went to a startup some years ago, and people asked him why he would risk it, his answer was he’d just find another job or come back.

I am unafraid because I know in my bones that the world can change on a dime so I’ve always been conservative and prepared; practices (professional and financial), frugality and savings.

He is unafraid because he’s never known the job market that wasn’t hot in the Bay Area. He graduated in 2009.

At least I resolved a mystery for him. In the 2000s when he was in high school, he told his counselor that he wanted to do computers. The counselor said, “Are you crazy? All of that’s going to be done in India.” Until our conversation he didn’t understand that exchange.

All of this is a very long way of saying that yes, the world you know can turn on a dime and the invariants aren’t.

In my experience houses greater than 6k sq ft are useful for one of a couple scenarios: either you have >5 residents (parents, grandparents, kids, live-in help) and need lots of bedrooms/extra space, or you're throwing frequent social events and need your home to function as an event venue.

I briefly lived in an 8.5k sq ft house with two other people and on many mornings I felt like Jack Nicholson in the Shining. Never again.

By "Idea guy" the author actually means "Idea guy that has no skills, cannot execute his idea, and does not want to take responsibility guy".

Yes we all hate that guy.

But there are plenty of idea guys&girls who are busy executing ideas, competent, have skills, and still might come up with a useful idea that would help your project.

Should we hate these guys too?
Is it just more, or wouldn't the blame (recent person who touched a file) be more relevant as a file detail than its most recent commit?
BTW. I accidentally discovered that in case of accessing google.com from non-English speaking country, `en-US` is treated as non-reliable (probably because many devices have this set as default), whereas `en-IE` for example is treated as reliable. Also appending any non-English language after `en-US` does the trick AFAIR.

Basically `en-US`-only Accept-Language seems to be treated as "perhaps default language of a device and user didn't change it, we should not rely on it" and IP-based localization is applied in that case ("in France? ok show French version").
1 billion rides really doesn't seem that impressive to me given they're a global company.
Okay, so in addition to that claim being unsupported and rather unlikely you have a major problem with this theory: art only requires one person to like it but a currency requires an active network and someone who just likes to look at SHA hashes isn't going to generate much transaction volume.
