The biggest repercussion I see is many, many companies goes belly up all at the same time, with lots of unemployment and a massive shock to the economy.

Companies going bankrupt happen all the time, but if their demise is prevented because they keep getting capital injections from Softbank, then once there's a systemic event so big that they can't get their next infusion, then they will all go bankrupt in one fell swoop with a bunch of companies going bankrupt, the companies providing those companies services going bankrupt, hundreds of thousands out of jobs, etc.

Imagine if WeWork went bankrupt right now. All their employees would be fired, and all the companies that provide services (catering, janitorial, Salesforce? AWS/GCP? etc) would layoff those employees. The bankruptcy trustees would be making a mad dash to try to sell their assets before the markets collapsed, depressing the markets.

This is obviously a worst case scenario but that's what basically happened during the dotcom bust.
Are you sure he wasn't referring to roadmapping? You can plan what projects to take on in the next quarter or two with a product team while the engineering team remains agile in their operations.
> I think Git turned out to have the better UI [...]

I think I have never heard that from anybody versed in git and any other distributed source control manager. Architecturally, we can look at (eg) speed performance and reasonable people could agree git leads or is a competitive contender. What UI examples is git bringing though?

I’d love to love it, but to me it feels like a UI/UX disaster, and “getting used to it” is NOT an excuse when we have mercurial or fossil showing how much better it can be.
Yes I'm aware they aren't the only ones. The person I responded to is implying that total demand for coworking spaces would fall, and I was asking what the alternative would be.
I work remotely and have a minimum of 1 morning video meeting, often more in a day. Cannot agree with this comment. The only thing that's gotten reliable is when certain things fail we kind of know what it is from past experience. "Jim. Please plug in your headphones or mute yourself, this happens once a week. JIIIM. JIIIIIM. Can we kick Jim from the call? Who has permission to kick someone from a call here?"

To the conferencing software's credit, it's generally user error. But when you have 10 people in a call, and only 2 of them really understand or even care about their conferencing software setup, things break a lot. I have to explain the concept of changing your recording device more than once a week. Usually to the same people again and again.
It's terrifying that this joke, like all good jokes, has a kernel of truth to it.

Hm, but you have an Authenticator App enabled. If I "Edit" my SMS Number, I get to choose whether I want to proceed with "Set up using app" or "Set up using SMS", but not "Set up using security key".

The point of having two keys is that there is no need for neither an authenticator app nor SMS.

I'm not really following the "commits" but rather following releases. In the last 2 Years Kallithea had only 1 minor release (https://pypi.org/project/Kallithea/#history) 0.3 -> 0.4 without many new features. RhodeCode had 5 minor releases (https://docs.rhodecode.com/RhodeCode-Enterprise/release-note...) and multiple bugfix releases. I'm aware not all features in comparison are free, but we use the CE free version and it's enough for us at this point.
A good explanation of this against competing standards seems to be available here [1]. It seems weird that they complain about discontinuities in such a system, where there has to be some discontinuities in a tiled system.

Now, could this be used as an alternative to DNS? have a registrar per tile, and delegate if necessary.

I wish this could be used as a geo: URL, or as a location field in my ical invites. I guess I need better support in various apps for it.

Maybe it lack elevation information to specify meeting rooms, though? Perhaps it could be extended to support both ground and absolute elevation.

Excluding words somewhat makes sense, but also removes some opportunities for artificial attractions, it isn't like some areas don't already have interesting ones [2]). So I am a bit split on this one, as it does generate longer names. Maybe emojis would be a better fit?

Now, a note about standard presentation: I would have preferred a technical overview to an introduction that merely sums up some obvious (to me) facts, without really getting into explaining the standard. Perhaps someone has already come up with a way to publish standards together with a few sliders to control the amount of content displayed? That would be great.

This is talked about as the "double empathy" problem.
I tried the site you linked on my phone. It is not a better experience than a standard HTML site:

1. The Back button had a noticable half-second lag.

2. When I temporarily lost connection and a link I clicked was taking a long time to load, I wasn't given the option to stop loading it like I am when I click a normal link.

I tried disabling JavaScript like a sibling comment suggested, and the website was indeed faster and still flicker-free. (Where do front-end devs get this idea that you need tons of JavaScript to do flicker-free page navigation? Have they never used Hacker News?) But then I wasn't able to see the interactive code examples on the homepage, because those genuinely needed JS to work.

This is because disabling JavaScript is an all-or-nothing proposition. There's no "throw out bathwater but not baby" button or "allow JavaScript only for things it should actually be used for, and not clumsily reimplementing browser features while forgetting half the edge-cases" toggle-switch.
It happens. You've taken reasonable precautions to safeguard your online identity, which is all one can really ask. Sometimes things slip through the cracks. The hacker is to blame, not you.

The larger question is about if gem/npm/cargo-style package managers are such a terrific idea in the long run. The security implications are pretty serious.
There was an Android "game" with leaderboards that had you throw your phone as high as you could into the air. I don't think it lasted long.
Once upon a time I learned the most useful phrase: "Sure, which of these projects would you like me to deprioritize?"

You're still saying no, but you're also saying yes. It gives your manager the opportunity to make the tradeoff. Sometimes they realize their ask really isn't that important and put it on your list for later. And sometimes they decide the new thing is indeed more important than what you're doing, which is a big win. You should always work on the most important thing you can be working on.

Your manager's job is to prioritize your work. Let them.
Funny coincidence because just few days ago I was using zoom for the first time long time. The image/sound quality for sure was crappy and it was lagging/spotty multiple times. On the other hand there was like 7 participants. I also don't like how you have to install separate app to use it - and I heard the OS X version had vulnerability issues.

When I'm hosting a video call I prefer google hangouts. Works OK without installing apps.
> So, is all this (that is, the historically crazy high revenues that railroad companies have brought in) where the term "robber barons" comes from?

In the modern American sense, absolutely yes. Standard Oil and all that lot. Further back there were literal robber barons with castles on the Rhine charging illegal tolls to shipping.

I thought his AWS comparison was more favorable than it seems you did. I remember launching a startup in 2009 and our head investor (who was a CFO at a bespoke insurance firm) was floored when he saw our financial docs and that we were able to make our infrastructure expenses OpEx instead of CapEx.

As AWS got its start making it easy for startups to get access to infrastructure, the bull case for WeWork is that startups choose that environment over signing a traditional lease. It’s not that a startup can’t work out of a coffee shop, just like we could have theoretically run our own email servers. But a physical location and address has advantages and WeWork opens that to more people with less friction than the pre-WeWork options.

But that’s the bull case. I’m not a financial analyst and I’m not your financial analyst so this isn’t financial advice, but my risk profile tells me to pass on this opportunity...
Related to this is one of my favorite articles: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2003/03/caring-....

She hadn't been able to articulate that for herself.

Another way to view it is that employees with very poor social function create management overhead, both in their interaction with management and their interactions with others in the workplace.

Poor management will deal worse with increased overhead, but no matter what it has a cost. Not to mention just the emotional labor involved with your "Would you like to X?" being met with a hard "No."

Knowing the employee has autism and being taught some simple mitigation strategies (here, it appears "tell" not "ask" is a large part) has the prospect of partially mitigating a lot of these issues for everyone.

I would generally suggest the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN)'s resources page since I don't know specifically what you're looking for.

As a side note, and I assume you already know this but I'd like for it to be stated often enough such that it is widepsreadly known: Depending on the age of your daughter, I understand it is significantly important that she be diagnosed officially or ruled out of autism as early as reasonable. If she has autism, an official diagnosis is one of the only ways to recieve appropriate educational/occupational support as she goes through public/private schooling and higher education which would greatly improve chances of being able to comply with societal standards for productive membership.
It depends a lot. When I commuted from Redmond to Seattle, that was just a ridiculous amount of time to fill, and transportation options are limited (bus, car, or a really long bike ride). Now I work seven miles from the house, I ride an electric push scooter (Boosted Rev) or the bicycle. If I decide to whip back into ultra marathon shape, I can run to work. I'm not the type to just take the scooter out for a joy ride, so it gives me the opportunity every day to go for a ride along the river. Probably would not have even purchased the scooter if I had no commute, which means I'd still be driving the car three miles down the road for milk. But now I just take the solar-charged scooter if I need something from the store, et. al.

But that same commute in a car sucks ass, so your point stands.
I don’t see how it would have prevented this attack. It sounds like this was an old, semi-forgotten account (with a old password), so the attacker could have simply enabled 2FA, pushed the gems, and then disabled 2FA again.
> But as Medium declines and eventually dies, remember that this is the fate that waits for every project, no matter how successful, and they leave behind valuable information for us.

This statement makes me so angry with Medium's corporate communications. It makes total sense to me that you'd think this, but I also think it's dead wrong.

The problem is that Medium is not clear that they've just straight up changed. So it's not that they are the big free open platform they used to be with an annoying "upgrade to pro" ad model on top of that.

Rather, Medium is primarily a subscription service. Even though they aren't saying this, it's best to think of them as an open-platform version of Netflix where anyone could post an episode or show and get paid for it.

That switch came with a switch in their incentive structure. The incentives for posting on Medium used to be that Medium will bring in a lot of traffic from their network. But they now limit that to articles that are published inside their subscription service. So there's not really any reason to post outside of their subscription service.

This is what I think you're experiencing: the free, non-paywalled portions of Medium are dying because the incentives for publishing went away and the aggressiveness at advertising their actual product (subscribe for, they hope, great content) has become more aggressive.

Meanwhile, while the experience that ElementaryOS was using Medium for is dying, there's a new experience that's quite good and I think plays a nice balancing role in the overall Internet ecosystem. Medium is making a place that rewards quality writing, tries to eliminate writing for the purpose of marketing, and is pouring money into authors and editors so that they can invest more quality into their articles.
Specifically, floppy drive controllers and machine language monitor programs.

Indeed, so much so that if you have both a cat and a dog, you should not use the standard topical flea treatment on your dog (which contains permethrin) as enough may transfer to your cat to cause serious issues.
I dont agree. Its actually the exact same thing. Before AWS you did not time share servers. Servers would be idle for long amounts of time if the capacity requirements were spiky. You have the same situation here, but for work areas/meeting capabilities. Going from a single tenant fully leased capability to a shared workspace model allows for much higher utilization of the underlying assets.

> Your principles seem to be summed up as: so long as someone is speaking their opinion respectfully and in good faith, it matters not what that opinion is;

While I'm generally an admirer of dang and sctb, a variation of this is my criticism, as well:

They tend to overemphasize "manners", while being blind to anti-social and trollish behaviour.

It's fine to chide me for blowing off steam, I shouldn't do that. But when it is because "the other guy" has behaved and "discussed" very dishonestly, I don't think he should get a pass.

At least the whole sub-thread should be deleted, but usually my (wrong, but still rather slight) reaction (like "I find your way of responding dishonest" – not even "I find you dishonest", mind you) is deleted and the dreck that I was subjected to remains.

Because he did not use the words "asshole" or "dishonest" and rather cleverly expressed the same in a "clean" way.

It just incentivises commenters to get more sneaky, back-handed and dog-whistly. And that is already destroying this community, I feel.

Why New York City Is on the Verge of Disaster
First paragraph:

Parents often say their children bring them joy
but most research suggests kids cause financial
worry, stress and anxiety.

Second paragraph:

However, the latest research suggests children
do actually make people happier – but only once
they’ve left home.

That is in line with what most studies come up with as one of the central aspects of a happy life: Having friends. I would think that kids kinda fall in that category after they left home.
I am not for or against wework. However, they do have first mover advantage for prime locations. I.e. it is not just cheaper rents.

Also, the founder dealing is not that relevant to the future of the company. Yes, he is a public persona, but for the day to day operations, I believe that there are operational personal that make the decisions.
> that don’t look great for the FAA...

I am not sure I understand. The crashes where in Indonesia and Ethiopia and those planes weren’t under the jurisdiction of the FAA: presumably they were inspected by the relevant aviation authorities in those countries. There weren’t any crashes in the US, so how does that make the FAA look bad? The US commercial aviation safety rate is unsurpassed and exceptionally good. I’d say the FAA has a pretty good track record. Just looking at the operational history of Indonesian airlines — it’s clear that their regulatory body has a serious problem. But the FAA? The American safety record is compelling.
It would rock to be able to avoid having the Authenticator app, but I think “U2F plus a TOTP device” is pretty solidly better than “U2F plus SMS”, and this comment tree is suggesting that GitHub doesn’t allow for disabling SMS.

If you do U2F with 2 keys, TOTP, and throw away the TOTP secret after you activate it, you’re exposed to a slight additional risk because the TOTP secret is still stored by Github, but that’s radically better than a world where they mandate SMS.
Can someone explain to me why I, a hypothetical traveller, would choose to stay in someone's Airbnb instead of a similarly priced hotel? I simply don't understand the attraction. I've only heard negative things about Airbnb, their business practices, dishonest hosts/listings, etc. At least with a hotel there is some semblance of responsibility. If you walk into your hotel room and there is a big pile of dog shit on the mattress, they'll give you a new room or send some staff up to remedy the situation.

I vaped a lot, lost my vape and didn't buy a new one. The period afterwards, with no vape/nicotine, was completely unproblematic, I had no issues quitting at all.
AWS support is indeed pretty crappy. $500 is not a fixed price. You pay 10% for the first 10K/month, 7% of $10K-$80K and so on. The Developer plan is 3%, but is pretty worthless - it should be renamed to rookie-plan or similar - you can get the same answers on SO for free within minutes instead of waiting days. Getting past first-level support on the Dev plan with harder technical issues takes weeks in my experience.

When Liberalism Collides with the Anthropocene
I’m not defending juul, but they shit down those accounts over a year ago and they don’t even portray young people in there ads anymore.

Moreover that Vox article completely makes up the 75% increase stat it cites. If you follow the citation and do the math, the survey which they don’t like to show a roughly 30% increase in the number of teens who had used any vaping product in the prior 30 days.

I don’t think anyone should use these products, but they’re clearly less bad than cigarettes. Also, this whole thing has the smell of a moral panic without a lot of actual substance.
