skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
Design comes in three parts, at least, and I wonder if they should be done at different times, maybe even by different people:

(1) Wording. Consolidate "Create new file," "Upload files," and "Find files" into "Files: Create, Upload, Find." This is great. When you're in this zone, you are mercilessly paring down, pruning, merging.

(2) Layout. Do we need two levels of tabs? Should this go here or there? What things work well side by side? This is a relationship-analysis mood.

(3) Graphics. Borders, colors, gradients, etc. This is a creative mood, where you are building things up, giving them outline and skins.

If you just got done with Wording and then go to Graphics, you have this leftover pruning mentality. This might cause you to be overly minimalist in your graphic design, as this author was, in my opinion (and I'm a minimalist, who errs in the same way). I thought he did so great with the first 90% of the rewrite, and he echoed many of my thoughts when I'm working on something. But I agree with the rest of the people here who said he went too far in removing outlines and such that delineate components. It is a testament to Github's graphic design that it always looks fresh to me (but I agree a bit hard to navigate).
Conscious Decoupling
The vanity counters argument just seemed to me like the author really just doesn’t understand the site or the audience. Which is surprising because he is a dev. The metrics of stars is one thing, that’s a vanity option used by user for bookmarking and project maintainer’s popularity statistic. The fork option has dual functionality, forking the project or viewing all the other forks.

When it comes to Watch, that’s just being pedantic. Maybe non-developers expect to be shown the current state of something, but as a dev I feel that I would like that button to show the inverse, so I know what will happen when I press it. “Click Watch to Watch the repo!”. Two sides of the same coin maybe.

Strongly agree with this, and it's probably the biggest reason I don't use BitBucket unless I'm getting paid to.

The other big reason is that Bitbucket loads bunch of trackers and JavaScript from remote servers.
In fact, it's not uncommon to take a dataset and deliberately, randomly distort it- for images, things like scaling, rotating, cropping, blurring, altering color balance and gamma, flipping, adding random noise...

The idea is to make the model resistant to that "bad" input and effectively enlarge your dataset for free- if you have a picture of a cat, you can automatically also get loads of pictures that you know should still be classified as a cat- rotated 15 degrees clockwise, noisy (like in low-light conditions), the tip of its tail is out of frame, the camera's automatic white balance screws up...

Also, the robotic samples may be real human voices mangled by LPC- Think a lossy VoIP call.

You should make a browser extension to add css/js to apply your changes so people can try it and/or permanently change it just for them. Even better if you add a bunch of options to turn them on or off (like if you want to move everything, but keep the old design).
Imagine a professional “assisted stenography” software package. Rather than automatic full transcription + proof-reading after the fact, it would transcribe “live” but with any words where its model gave a low-confidence output highlighted with the expectation that the human stenographer, listening to the audio at the same time the machine is, will type in the correct transcription (or just hit tab to accept, like in autocomplete.)
This is helpful.
Ehhh, I don't think your example disproves the idea you're responding to. Perhaps video games MUST deliver performance in the end, but often game prototypes are not performant at all for the sake of rapid experimentation, and are only optimized towards the end of development once all the systems are set in stone...which is what's being advocated for here.
According to other commenters on this site, "The West". How they've come to the conclusion that a technology forum should be the place to discuss the most beneficial Western geopolitical strategy is beyond me.
If you’re objecting to having a car at all... yeah I’d say that’s naivety from only living in a city.

Otherwise I’d say that’s the short sighted financial sense.

I was borrowing at a rate that was barely costing my anything in finance charges and gaining the opportunities having that much cash open for investment or other expenses gives me.

I don’t see a reason to buy a car in cash if you can get a good enough rate...
That’s not correct. Panasonic owns the IP for these batteries.

They have a contract with Tesla to produce for them, but Tesla’s demand is so high they can’t produce enough. Production is 24/7. Even if Panasonic wanted to they couldn’t sell to anyone else. I don’t know what kind of price negotiations they have, but current battery production is not profitable. This I know.

Also, Panasonic just partnered with Toyota to produce batteries for all their EV’s.

Additionally, the Gigafactory is just 1 battery production location. Panasonic has many. Some in the USA, and others in Asia. They sell their batteries to many companies. Just not the same ones they’re making for Tesla.

The only thing I've ever seen actually work is a desktop environment. I did a proof of concept for the Coast Guard using Ozone [0]. It basically acts like a desktop, where widgets are individual frames that act like windows with cross-communication ability.

"business success" unless it's an SVP role, or CSuite role then no a Product Manager is not the correct role. From this posting and the requirement for "Customer Care"...the role should be targeting the $300k range.
More favorably compared by who? I’ve sat in model 3,s, and x, and when compared with similar priced BMW or Mercs, there is a massive difference in interior luxury and comfort. Seriously, go and experience being inside a 100k 7 series bmw to a 100k model s. It’s like night and day in comparison. The Tesla’s always feel cheap in comparison. The handling, road noise, luxury features, seat comfort, etc are all inferior in Tesla cars.

Also, Tesla know this themselves! Elon admits that Teslas are overpriced and that current buyers are subsidizing future buyers as they scale up. Also, a friend of mine used to be the manager of a major Tesla delivery center. He said the quality control was terrible and they had tons of cars with paint and panel issues. In fact he said bad paint jobs was one of their biggest source of problems.
I'm not referring to individuals who wants to make money as a web devs. What I'm referring to is the entrepreneur who lacks technical skills but is able to put up a nice little website using page-builders, and after a while wants to take it further and add features not supported by the page-builder.

>At the same time, we will be increasing our investment in the Tesla service system, with the goal of same-day, if not same-hour service, and with most service done by us coming to you, rather than you coming to us. Moreover, we guarantee service availability anywhere in any country in which we operate.

Next Tesla 2021 newsflash, we will continue to operate service centers but in order to reduce costs further we will no longer be able to come to you.
This varies by country.

In Europe, cars are pretty personal items, and typically only insured for one or a few drivers. Lending your car to a friend for a day would typically involve hours on the phone to the insurance company and a few hundred euros of fees. There are apps (cuvva) which try to reduce this, but even so it'll probably be cheaper and less effort to call an Uber rather than borrow a friend's car.

In the USA, loaning a car to a friend or neighbor seems far more common.
"styrofoam"

Nitpick / clarification: this is not 'EPS' which is what is commonly known in the US a styrofoam (although according to Wikipedia, the trademarked name 'Styrofoam' actually referes to XPS); so not the white grainy stuff e.g. some disposable coffee cups are made from. Modern insulation is done with PIR, PUR or XPS.
This was really good, up until the 'refresh'. Why get rid of most of the visual structure right after you spent all that effort making it cohesive?

Of course not. No one would think experimenting on healthy pets would be reasonable or ethical, but not using our sick pets to help other pets and humans is a huge waste.
The line items usually come up when negotiating the final price. It’s hard to avoid discussing the details unless one party has a string negotiating position and highly values minimal communication.

As to why you’d want to: if you ask someone to quote bottom line, and they do, then you can start picking their line items apart to go lower. Or if you quote high, you can use line items as justification for it to some buyers.

This car checks all the boxes for me - I want a hatchback, I want AWD, I want all electric, and I want something with the range to get me to the ski hill and back. But I'm in the middle of trying to remove Google services from as much of my life as I can, because I'm tired of all the creepy new ways they find to abuse my privacy.

I just discovered, in my Google privacy settings, that Google has started compiling a list of all the things I buy by scraping emails Amazon sends to my Gmail account, and there's no way to turn this off. Creepy AF! And you want me to let you run the OS in my car? No thanks.

> Why aren't millennials having kids? Look at the devastation around you. Will they be born into a world careening towards mass-famine and war? What will be left of the earth in the coming years? What do they stand to inherit?

If you were instead having children between 1950 and 1991, when the world was literally teetering on the brink of nuclear armageddon, would you not have reached the same conclusion? What about during the 1940s during World War II? Or 1930s, during the Great Depression? World War I and its aftermath is not ideal either, with a global pandemic killing a large percentage of the world's population, and many experts rightly predicting the resumption of hostilities in the coming years. 1871 to 1914 was great if you happened to be in a wealthy European country, of the right social class and ethnicity, and avoided dying of the many diseases (it was appropriately called "The Gilded Age" in the United States after all).

Of course the past appears more certain with the benefit of hindsight, but individuals still had children despite the circumstances and possible futures at the time appearing far worse than those of the present. The world did go through large numbers of mass famines, warfare, pandemics and societal upheavals, but humanity kept on reproducing, surviving and innovating, and now we have much better tools to deal with our problems than ever before.
If given a vote, I'd stay with the current design. But some of the problems identified are legit. I certainly think it can be improved, but not sure this is quite what it should be. I think more thought needs to be put in to what various people want to do/see when they hit that page.

"A trait that’s maladaptive in one environment can be adaptive in another”

Nature loves to consistently try new things: the very idea of what's "normal" always comes with some having these "maladaptive traits".

I guess normal people eventually master normal ways to succeed at normal life.

But what about the misfits? Should they wait for possible benefits of unexpected changes? Maybe keep in mind you could also find (or even make) an environment better suited for yourself?

FTP needs to die, immediately. It's an archaic protocol built around the limitations of early-1980s systems. In addition to the (by modern standards) insane protocol "feature" of having server responses be human-readable (and not machine-parseable) text, there's the batshit crazy mechanism of control and data connections it uses, which, in addition to having caused something like 2 decades of security problems, also makes it a nightmare to provision in modern networks --- and for nothing, for no benefit at all.

If in 2019 a developer built a file transfer system with the same service model as FTP, using the same design, you'd dismiss them for incompetence.

There is nothing FTP does that HTTP can't already do. The normal response to that is that there's no standard set of HTTP endpoints that delivers the file-upload capability that FTP exposes by default. But then, FTP doesn't even have a "standard" directory listing.

If we didn't have HTTP file upload, SFTP would be a reasonable thing to want. But we do, and SFTP shares with FTP the property of essentially being a restricted-purpose shell (with an attendant user authentication model), which, again, is of basically no benefit in modern systems.

Death to FTP.

But why? If I want a lower price I don’t care where they have to shave it from to do that do I? I don’t care about how they’ve arrived at a price or how it’s accounted for if I just want it be lower.

I say I want that price to be lower in order for me to buy and they say yes or no depending on if it’s worth it for them.
> if you put too many icons in a row and they are all different, they won’t work.

uhh what? says who? where's the source of this? This is only the case if your icons don't look different enough. In the example those icons aren't great because they've overly complex and easy to mix up.

>you won’t come up with a great icon for a commit. Or a release. Or an issue. Or a license.

You can, and you also don't necessarily need to. Icons aren't only for the illiterate or first-time users... they create a signpost for repeat users to scan for without reading a word. As long as you consistently use the same icons and they make at least a little sense, they can be useful (I agree that some of Github's don't make much sense at all though).

>I mean, Icon + Label + Counter make for a symmetric and weak composition:

It's best to refrain from insults during critique, but this is flat out dumb. Completely unfounded. No evidence. The composition is "what is it" and "how many" — it makes perfect sense.

>The thing with vanity metrics is that there should be just one. One metrics is simple to understand and focus.

Again, no. This is how _you_ use it. You've done no research. I want to see forks because I want to know how many people are potentially engaged in _doing_ something with a repo. Stars matter less to me because there are some repos that just have a lot of stars because someone wrote an interesting article about it once. (I do think stars and watching is a bit redundant, I personally have no need for both but my personal experience does not solely dictate what the product needs to be)

> Watch button

Again, no. `Watch` is an action. If I click the dropdown I expect to have options for "watch". "Not watching" simply adds words and makes me put forth a little cognitive effort (minimal but it's there) to parse what the opposite of "not watching" is. You are adding the need to think more, not less.

Honestly I'm too exhausted to continue. This redesign isn't well thought out at all. At this point I skipped ahead to the end, and honestly it's just a garbled mess. You don't understand the product or its users. If you were my student (I'm a design professor) I'd give you credit for the effort, and the visual design is fine (though are you trying to trick me into thinking that making corners more round is meaningful?)... but there's an endless mountain of straight-up bullshit to call out here.
