Software engineers should never be allowed anywhere near UX decisions on their own.At work, I'm often in a position,where I need to chose between 'easier for the end user(internal)' and 'easier for the business/manager/developer/whatever'. I try my best to advocate for users most of the time,even if it complicates some things on the implementation side of things. Most technical people,if allowed,would make things far more difficult than they need to be. Not sure what went wrong at MS, however they keep making it more and mote difficult with no apparent good reason. Even the documentation websites are so confusing,even Oracle starts looking good in comparison... I remember a discussion with my colleague,a BA, who argued that people should just fill in a few of those extra fields. Yes,I said, it's easy for you to say this,because you'll just pull a report on these fields,while the users will be doing this hundreds of times a week...
I think the author was arguing that the siloing off of internet users, combined with hypersaturated markets is what made that election scandal possible in the first place. To be clear about what I mean by that I am referring to unregulated political advertising that nobody checks. An example of the bad advertising would be: Running an ad campaign referring to the wrong date of the physical vote to a target audience of 9-to-five 18-35 wage workers with kids and no college education hoping that it tricks some percent of them into not voting because they requested the wrong day off. Oops!

People (Ad people) simply noticed that the ads were a communication channel in and of themselves, and using the (for example) facebook tools to lazily target a particular demographic, they got huge numbers of eyeballs. Stir in some classic astroturfing and social-media influencers (Derisively known as shills), likes, comments and you've got a quick minilove and truth. Except even better because anyone with cash who resides in any country on earth can buy in.

The author was pointing out the now obvious fact that "tech companies" look like an information service for connecting friends but are actually ad generating theme parks. Since the value of the data your users bring is only very useful if you have a lot of it, the organizations who have replaced both Nielsen and News Papers have simply followed the incentives and coalesced into larger and larger gravitational bodies. By having all the content, users, tracking pixels, sales data, and ads, it increases the value of all of those things if you can meaningfuly connect them together by engaging with users through next-generation enterprise-grade disruptive orthogonal innovation at-scale.

They're saying a centralized web is more valuable to its corporate sponsors, because when there are fewer places you need to advertise or track/monetize user data in this world, the corporate value compounds even more. Likewise abusing these themeparks will be even more effective, because whatever mechanism sells soda pop will likely also sell antidepresants and anything else.

Walking into the stables might get you a big sack of oats, but you wont find anything other than what they hand over the gate.
"Containers" is an unfortunate term, since it really better describes the container image than an actual running process with API virtualisation.

I think VMs-as-containers is where we'll wind up. The container image has turned out to be the real thing of interest, the runtime is almost secondary. Virtual machine systems have closed the performance gap in a variety of ways.

For example: tearing out kernel checks for devices that will never be connected to the VM; taking advantage of hyper-privileged CPU instructions; being able to make and restore higher-fidelity checkpoints than an OS can for faster launches etc.

At which point the isolation benefits of VMs really begin to outweigh everything else. A hypervisor has a much smaller attack surface and has a much simpler role than a full monolithic OS kernel. It partitions the hardware and that's about it. It doesn't exist in a constant tension between kernel-as-resource-manager and kernel-as-service-provider.

The Lindy Effect on startup potential (2014)
The author is frustrated by their apparent misunderstanding of theory and history of theory that is very hard to understand, and is even not completely understood yet, and is right to be subject to new questions and outlooks.

It seems equally selfish to be offended personally or in a groups honor, by accusations of innate intellectual prejudices at large, than it is selfish for the intellectually isolated individual to entertain and express such accusations.

The author of TFA has little understanding of what they're talking about and misses all of the nuance of the double slit experiment and its relationship to other QM phenomena like the Dirac three polarizer experiment[1] and delayed choice quantum eraser experiment[2]. The three polariser experiment in particular makes it almost impossible to argue that light is a particle even if it had hidden state, unless that hidden state was propagating faster than light.

TFA reads like /r/iamverysmart content or a medium effort troll post. I don't understand how this ended up on HN frontpage.

Can you describe what you like about NuShell? Never heard of it, but the Github page looks super interesting.

I struggle to imagine making use of it however. My normal flow just doesn't seem to need that power. I think I would benefit most from simplicity. Although, I could definitely see this benefiting from things being predictable, guessable, etc. Ie, when I rarely need more advanced features I'm less likely to need to look up documentation to figure out how to do something - as I often do.

The masses don't own houses to put these roofs on. Because of concentration of wealth and return on capital exacerbating that concentration. Because of rent seeking pyramid schemes. Which I imagine artificially restricts demand for improvements like solar panel roofs: who has more inventive to invest in things like solar panel roofs? Owner occupants who are in it for the long term, or rent seeking landlords just trying to make their mortgage payments on time and turn a buck?

Docker achieved a number of things: they provided a simple user experience and a simple, relatively effective image format. The primitives had been in the kernel for some time and were widely used to implement a variety of systems (Cloud Foundry used these kernel features over 2 generations of its own code before switching to runc).

If you're just running stuff on a single machine for your own satisfaction, you don't need to fret about Kubernetes.

There's a lot of problems that aren't being solved properly. For example, we've tried to integrate chat into our app recently and it was an absolute pain to the point we had to rewrite half the code because of the crazy latency on the servers, and hacking in some missing features.

I scan read (it's quite long, sorry) - I didn't see much evidence for white nationalists. Sure, there was some "edgy" emails for sure, but nothing that seemed to indicate white nationalism. Maybe I missed it though, please feel free to point it out to me.

Also the words "alt-right", "right-wing", "far-right" and "alt-lite" are used so interchangeably and often incorrectly, I've given up taking them seriously. They're often used as stand-ins for "not-left".
Feed-in tariffs are a subsidy - they pay out more than the actual market value of the electricity, and that money comes from the bills paid by other consumers. This is especially true of the ones on older UK solar installations, which are higher than the retail cost of the electricity. There might be some justification for arguing that the ones in other places with much greater reliance on air conditioning and a summertime peak in usage aren't, because they could act as a form of peak shaving, but that doesn't apply to the UK.

This didn't happen because the numbers added up. The government mandated it for political reasons and all parties had to go along.

You are looking at it like a single, 12-year-long development project. This is likely a heterogeneous funding bucket that pays for multiple small, possibly overlapping, testing efforts over the contract period.

I think that's being very unfair. Linux is not the same "incoherent mess" it was 10-20 years ago. There are some OEM's that ship with linux pre-installed, some of them are:

- Dell
- System76
- Purism

> Literally couldn't even beat Windows by giving the latter away.

Beat in what sense?

That's merely your opinion and doesn't necessarily reflect reality. Especially when you don't support it with any facts. Fact is that the linux story and experience has improved dramatically over the past 10 years. That's why there are now OEM's that provide linux as an alternative to Windows, and there are some OEM's that target linux exclusively.

My daily driver is a Dell Latitude E7450 and everything worked out of the box with Manjaro linux. Driver/hardware support in linux these days is quite good.
For sure - but this is precisely the reason we should all reach for a wide variety of sources. Your typical left-wing news source might choose not to publish a story critical of left-wing politics for example, whereas Breitbart would likely jump on the opportunity. Breitbart on the other hand might choose not to be critical of right-wing political stories.

As my parents once told me as a child, the truth is often somewhere in the middle.

> This is exactly what is meant by trickle down economics.

This is not true. Trickle down economics is the theory that money given to rich people will enrich poor people because the rich people will use the money to buy goods and services the production of which will require the labor of poor people. That is, this extra money at the disposal of rich people will create an economic domino effect such that money will ultimately end up at the disposal of poor people. In a trivial sense this is true. The theory is only interesting if this is an efficient way to increase economic activity generally without deleterious side effects.

But it never was the theory that giving money to rich people would spur research and development such that services ultimately were cheaper.

As to whether it's a scam, that is another matter. The allegation then is that the boosters of trickle down economics do not believe their own claims as to the efficiency of this process. That is, they believe, because it is tautologically true, that this will enrich those who are already rich, and they desire this, and the story about the efficiency of this process is a tall tale to salve consciences or win over rubes.
Of course, since Tesla's cost comparison only works out if you compare their solar roof to one of those more expensive ceramic/slate roofs, it seems fair to compare the lifespan to those roofs too.
My last client uses both Squarespace and my current site. Squarespace is great for static information. But it's also lacking things like states. For example, you can't make a habit tracker with it or a marketplace or a condominium management system.

They do this because it fools Silicon Valley into believing this is a tech-company.

Outside some strips of land on the coasts much of the masses do own homes. Some people get them at 30, some people get them at 50 but for the most part everyone who isn't just bouncing around minimum wage jobs will be a homeowner. That's not to say that the home isn't just a trailer on land and that the location and/or upkeep of the home won't make most upper middle class HN-ers recoil in horror but the fact of the matter is that a heck of a lot of people are homeowners and most of them aren't rich by any stretch.

>Incentiving rich people to buy expansive tech (and still at lost for the riches) help the technologies to ride the cost curve and bring it to the masses.

Ah yes, trickle down never fails.
Except that time and time again, it has been shown that it absolutely does not work.

"[I]f the income share of the top 20 percent (the rich) increases, then GDP growth actually declines over the medium term, suggesting that the benefits do not trickle down. In contrast, an increase in the income share of the bottom 20 percent (the poor) is associated with higher GDP growth. [1]"
