When I first moved to China ~10 years ago, I mentioned to whomever I was on the phone with back home that I needed to go grab some cash and that I might lose the call when I got in the lift. They asked where I planned to get money in the middle of the night, and were surprised to learn that ATM technology had indeed made it to "the Orient."

We do make generalizations about all the categories you mentioned. Some are harmless some are hurtful.

I'll take my generation vs gen Z as an example. I clearly remember 9/11, blowing NES cartridges to get my games to work, rewinding video tapes, making phone calls to friends on a shared line using a corded phone, having to listen to a radio station for 3 hours to hear the one song I liked and then rush to hit record so I could save it for replay, and on and on. I cannot share these experiences with gen Z. They won't ever have that. I can talk about it but it's just like a Boomer telling me about going to Woodstock or making 10 cents an hour bagging groceries, or dodging minefields in Vietnam, or using punch cards to program. Sure I can hear those stories and be amused, shocked or whatever by them...but I'll never know precisely what it was like to go through all that, with the mood of the time.
Brave is brilliant at mobile design is what they're brilliant at. I find Chrome and Firefox on Android unusable because of how much better browsing with Brave feels. Firefox Lite and Microsoft Edge get closer to the pleasure of using Brave on mobile but neither comes close to matching it since Firefox lacks the reliability of Chromium browsers (I know, boo choosing browsers based on usefulness) and Edge has a fetish for bloated sub-menus.

Incredimail wasn't an SaaS so the impact isn't particularly high. It's just an email client which can be fairly easily replaced albeit without the ability to add 1990's style backgrounds and large animated emoji to outgoing emails.
Grading scales can work, for instance if people are rating and reviewing products in online shops.

You're looking at a jacket and you see that while some people rate it 5/5, most of the ratings are 4/5 and 3/5, and 85% of the reviewers say they would recommend the jacket to a friend.

So you read the reviews, and gather that most of the medium scores are because the arms are a little shorter than expected and the cut across the back is rather wide. You also notice that everyone is praising the quality of the fabric and worksmanship. Good information, since if you have short arms and the back muscles of a powerlifter, that jacket would probably be a good purchase.

That is good use of a scoring system, but it requires people to care about it and about writing reviews. It works for niche sites, but completely breaks down somewhere like Amazon, or on Uber/Airbnb where you get punished for anything less than a perfect score.
Can't recommend it highly enough, the new engine is also a lot smoother.

I think this is being naive. You can wreck your career this way. You can be very talented but get screwed over if you are not aware of the people around you. In sense you need to have an “asshole” radar on at all times and be ready to respond in kind. Personally, this is exhausting.

> The “I am old” trope is just so uninteresting. To me, it’s a sort of humblebrag

I assure you, it isn't. I mean, I'm sure it's uninteresting, but it isn't intended to be a humblebrag. I practically cheered when the OP indicated that they don't understand "stories" because I legitimately don't, but I also have this realization that the reason I don't understand stories is that I'm just kind of inflexible and grumpy about new things at times. That's not admirable. That's not useful. But it's the truth. I truly don't understand why some pictures are shown at the very tippy top of my facebook feed, but I only get to look at them for 10 seconds. Is there a reason for this? Does someone find it beneficial? Do the kids laugh at me for even stopping to think about it? (Yes. Yes they do.) This is not a badge of honor.

> 48 PCIe lanes

PCIe lane count depends on CPU support, for AM4 I believe it ranges from 6x PCIe 3.0 (cheapest AMD Athlon/Ryzen CPU-s with integrated GPU) to 24 (PCIe 4.0 for latest Zen 2 based Ryzen 3000 series).

The CPU they list in the article supports 16 lanes of PCIe 3.0 connectivity + 4 lanes for chipset (storage and other IO). Nowhere near the 48 PCIe lanes you mention, although you could argue that 20+4 lanes of PCIe 4.0 bandwidth is equal to 48 lanes of PCIe 3.0 bandwidth, but this would require a compatible CPU, which would increase the cost by hundreds of dollars.
being in the camp of "nothing ever good comes from adds", I've never considered Brave.

A browser is a remote code execution engine for attacker-controlled content. Looking at their bounties on H1 https://hackerone.com/brave/hacktivity they are still solving problems which Mozilla and Google have researched and extinguished long ago. I don't trust Brave to get the security right. Also Ethereum is a scam and doesn't scale but that's a whole other topic.

As for their claims around paying content generators with their fake monopoly money, this article was absolutely on point.
I changed my music player/library from the default 5-star rating system to a 1-star system, basically replicating the "like"/"save" functionality from Spotify. It makes it easier to handle, because I don't have to think about whether I like this particular song 4 stars or the full 5 stars.

I just mark favorite tracks and favorite albums. The track and album ratings are separate, because I might love an album as a whole, but also have a couple of individual favorite tracks on that album.

And I don't have any music in my collection that I don't like or am completely "meh" about. If it's in my library, I already love it, the question is whether it's an all-time favorite or not.
If you post on HN people assume it must be science not creative writing. I enjoyed reading this a lot more than the regular content.
[Edit: removed personal opinion on the fact]. Curious why you didn't mention 9/11.
The reason "academia" rejects him isn't because his claims are somehow disturbing or controversial - it's because they're scientifically bogus and there's enough reason to believe that he's not arguing in good faith. Scientists make plenty of controversial claims and aren't afraid to be vocal about it - see climate change, or the harmful effects of many products like tobacco, which used to be (and in many cases, still are) largely ignored by the general population.

In UK law some terms in a residential lease are considered Unfair and so you (a person) can't agree to them. The lease is read as though those terms weren't there. Landlords responded to this by adding a paragraph of legalese that says you (the signatory) know the terms are unfair but you agree to them anyway.

Judges went "I see exactly what you're doing here, No" and just struck the offending paragraphs and unfair terms.

Of course just because you'd easily win in court doesn't mean they'll stop bullshitting you outside court but some things a landlord might want to do (e.g. kicking you out) already require a figleaf of court approval, and the court ain't going to approve when the contract is clearly Unfair.

When I was younger and rented I ran into plenty of scumbag agencies who tried to screw me over. One of the most popular ideas back then was to charge a high fee for the "service" of photocopying your lease and writing new dates in. The Housing Act says if your residential lease reaches its end date but you're still paying and nobody sent you paperwork requiring you leave then that lease hasn't ended until they do. So no thanks, I don't want to pay £100 for photocopying. If you want this lease to run for another whole year you can do the photocopying and I'll consider signing but I'm not paying you for that.

The government eventually just forbade fees for residential tenants all together. If big agencies want £100 to make a photocopy they are welcome to try charging that fee to the person or company that owns the building instead of the tenant. As you'd expect despite dire warnings from the industry in the end it just stopped charging fees and took a small dent in profits.

I'm one of the right people, I love pairing and have been doing it for a decade full time. That being said, I'm also very much aware 80% of developers will never want to do it, and that's okay. Even though it's a skill to learn, and I'd guess a good many of those 80% would come to enjoy it with more practice, it's ok to not like it.

Even if it was scientifically the fastest and best way to program (engineer productivity is unmeasurable so we'll never know) there's still a huge number of developers who will hate it for a number of reasons. They are all valid and no one should be forced to do things they hate if they can add similar value some other way.

I always have trouble seeing millenials born in the 80s as such. I feel that as a cultural block, you need to bisect the definition between 80s millenials, and 90s millenials.

80s millenials (personally I call them Gen Y or Michael Moore Millenials) came of age in the 90s, could remember the Soviet Union (if only hazily), experienced its unique cultural excesses on a more conscious level, and directly shaped the technology that would later form the digital substrate of new millenium.

They participated in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan from their onset, and were also old enough to viscerally experience 9/11.

Their generation helped develop activist-consumerism when it was still counter-culture, tend to embrace the idea of a more global society, and came of college age just as the internet began to gain ubiquity. Even though they had to directly weather the financial crisis, they seem to have a more optimistic view of the future, and human potential in general, even if they often see progress as being stymied by bad people.

The second group, (90s millenials or just millenials) have no collective memory of the Soviet Union, and entered the world as consumers of the digital transition, even if they were too old to truly be considered digital natives as their successors in Gen Z are. By the tine they were of age to join the military, the US had been at war for nearly a decade, and no one was quite sure why it still continued. The economy took a dive, and they were too young to experience it the same way as Gen Y did.

Their early experiences of the internet were when it was still heavily decentralized, but had also become accessible to the technically illiterate. They were culture producers more than they were developers in the oughties, and they grew up alongside surveillance capitalism. Their view of the world is a bit more mixed, and they're also who the author is referring to, I think.

I count myself among the latter group, if that offers some context to my perception.

Thank you for your comment. I'm not sure for your specific case, but generally the performance largely depends on the terminal emulators in my experience. For example, xterm and Windows ConPTY are super slow which are sometimes 100 times slower than the fastest terminals. urxvt (rxvt-unicode), alacritty, terminology are usually fast. xfce4-terminal, qterminal, mintty are acceptable. VTE based terminals (GNOME terminal, lxterminal, etc.), termit, etc. are slow in my environments.
You can stop it from moving by clicking and holding (both on the phone and laptop). The point is that it's a fast snippet of someone's time. Things you don't want someone referencing in the future.

For instance, you may want to show your friends you are in a resort and that you are in some other friends house. But you don't want people to be able to trace down your every move by looking at your profile.

The author discovered how capitalism works. Everything that has value, has it because there are people willing to pay for it, not necessarily because it has value or purpose. To use a tangible example instead of a virtual one - go read how diamonds have been pumped up by the mining-cutting cartels to be perceived as very valuable while in fact it's very hard to convert them to cash without a significant loss. PS. I've read recently that to move large money in times of crisis it's best to use diamonds, rubies etc. over gold or cryptocurrencies (cash is a non-starter, too much space). Well good luck with converting these stones back at purchase value. It boggles the mind that people can't see how much freedom 24 seed words give in times of crisis. You could move a billion dollars stashed in pages of a harlequin novel through every border & customs check and nobody would ever know. Try that with physical materials.
Your article looks like junk to me. At least from the abstract, there doesn't seem to have been any attempt to control for the environment (and climate) that the subjects grew up in.
You can't change an asshole but you need to be more asshole to an asshole in order to inspire respect among peers and people around you.

ETH2 phase 0 _may_ come at the end of the year. It will be many more years before ETH2 is live and trusted with real funds... enough to either absorb ETH1 or switch over to it. Heck, it may not happen at all. Amazing how this group mindset around ETH2 works.

All I see is a normal evolution of things in an R&D context.

Which is fine, except the premature standardization approach used by Semantic Web technologies destroyed any chance they had of working.

HTML5 could emerge because of the wide adoption of XHTML and web standards by developers and designers. Not despite the existence of XHTML. The latter is just heavily colored value attribution on the part of the author.

Actually, no. HTML5 forked from HTML4, not XHTML because the W3C had a different vision.

This isn't the just authors view: I followed the mailing list and it's pretty well understood.

They've been promising this for years. I've been working in the blockchain space for 2 years and I have experience working on scalable distributed systems as well so I'm skeptical of Ethereum's approach to sharding.

Aside from major technical challenges that are specific to Ethereum, a major problem with sharding a blockchain in general is that it somewhat obscures the reality that each shard is in fact a separate blockchain with separate network participants and so it might as well have a separate unit of value and not be constrained to a single token.

The ideal solution IMO (to really promote decentralization) is to have multiple independent blockchains and networks interlinked together via open source decentralized exchanges - This will mean that any token's value could be instantly determined relative to that of any other token in a trustless way by polling decentralized exchanges.
Or if your FS is slightly corrupted and figures out quite late it does not know where part of the file is. Or if you suddenly loose access to the hard drive.

If you write your program carefully, you can handle it, but it is way more difficult than handling error codes returned by a read function. You will even have to fight the compiler, because it does not distinguish between RW on manually mmapped data files from other RW; however you may want to just let it crash, because after all your program is also mmapped, including .text and .rodata sections, so it better works correctly -- anyway if the data files are on another partition and/or the application requires to be resilient, this excuse does not hold.
Brave is Chromium-based...it's literally a fork of the core source code for Chrome, so I don't think it would be any more insecure than that. And with Microsoft forking Chromium for Edge, Chromium should continue to get top-notch support on that front.

Ethereum is not a scam. It has evolved a great deal over the past 6 years, and thanks to zero-knowledge proofs, ETH does scale now (up to 2300 transactions a second, without any need for further upgrades...see Loopring for an in-production implementation of this tech https://loopring.org/#/), so you should update your knowledge on the subject.

It's not fake money. It's getting paid to view ads. This is not even a new idea. I used to use an internet service back in the 90s that was free as long as they could spam me with ads (NetZero). Facebook and Google make hundreds of billions of dollars off of ads, do you really think there's no room in that to give back to consumers of ads some portion of the revenue? The only reason they don't is because their duopoly over internet advertising is pretty stable right now.
I've been clicking the desktop ad notifications like a madman. Earning BAT, then taking that BAT and converting it to an interest bearing stable coin token in DeFi (~8%). Some of the BAT I earn, I also convert into ETH so I can pay for gas, making my transactions 'free'. It has been a fun experiment in playing with this stuff, but it certainly isn't going to make me rich or anything.
