Thanks for the added perspective, you're definitely correct. Measuring penetration is a big deal for price setting ad space. Even still, it doesn't seem to push Google to include their Ad ID system in AOSP instead of the Play Store. They could have forced ROM developers to go digging for the API to remove it.
> So, you acknowledge that it's a "quagmire", not a benefit.

I don't know what this means. After seeing the amount of political capital and time spent by the Bush administration the prior years, there was no way the Obama administration was going to delve into the same "quagmire."

It seems to me that that bill was bipartisan in it's support and detractors. So I'm not sure what the poison pills were that prevented it from passing. But I remember personally being against it because it seemed to me to establish a caste system in the US.

I think you miss the largest issue with the premise that the Democrats could have forced anything. The Democratic party is not a party of fall in line, there are procedural differences between how both parties operate in congress, and those differences create partisanship on the Republican side specifically.

Perhaps the greatest error by the Democrats and Pelosi was to abandon the "Hastert Rule" and be the ones actually implementing steps to be less partisan.
>And then there's also the fact that Tesla would manufacture the batteries but not own them.

This can be changed easily. Most Zoe owners lease their batteries from Renault and it might possible to set up a deal to share the revenues generated from the batteries.

>This doesn't make any of the major car manufacturers "power companies". Is the statement coming from Musk/Tesla or is it Reuters' interpretation?

Tesla has been working on that for years: https://gulfnews.com/business/energy/tesla-executive-hints-v...

Sorry to be cynical but I assume its just profit driven, keep in mind not all companies employee these bands. For those that do their rationale is why pay a employee more than the region dictates? I think an employee needs to figure out if the COL drop still makes sense to where they move. Say you make 200k in the bay area and move to san diego, which I was told is about a 10% to 15% paycut, you still make 170k and a typical engineer there makes alot less than this, so basically its all down to how bad you want to move to an area and if it makes financial/career sense.
Careful, the public board shows porn
Should you live near your job if it's expensive? Your choice. Should your employer pay you more if they can pay someone less who lives somewhere cheaper? Their choice. If you want to live in a small place in the city, there is a cost. If it's not pleasant to work from there because there isn't enough space, that is part of the cost. You are competing with folks who can now work from home, and have the space to do so effectively. Is that good or bad? No, it just is.

Life is about choices. I'm enumerating my choices because I want to help others make choices that help them have a higher quality of life when the choice presents itself. Do what is best for you. I apologize if any of my responses come across as anything less than helpful; my intent is to be helpful.

yes, many people agree that there is a covid problem. But they do not agree on what to do about it. This ruling reminds us that we live in a democracy and not an autocracy where decisions are made unilaterally by a single individual.

Postponing this ruling until years down the line would render it meaningless. It's a distinctly unamerican stance you're espousing, as our system of checks and balances is central to our governance and our way of life.

Chicagoans have to drive all the way out to Schaumburg or Bolingbrook and somehow take the furniture back with them. It’s a big hassle. I think what is usually regarded as a downside of IKEA, user assembly, will be an advantage in cities where it’s hard to arrange for the transportation of furniture.

In Chicago I think a place like State St. would be perfect for IKEA. It’s the “second” shopping boulevard (with the main one being Mag Mile) where rent is cheaper and the businesses attract more locals as opposed to tourists. It’s also centrally located in the Loop where it will be more equidistant to the various neighborhoods. They would be well advised to sell a greater selection of office furniture being so close to millions of square feet of office space.

Protos is more of a faster & smaller network serialization tradeoff vs. ease of development thing than a company scale thing. And a thing to do if you want to integrate with gRPC.

I worked at a company that used protos from day one for example.

Well, at least you seem to be using cargo for the rust parts.

Since this stuff is breaking an new anyway, it would be nice to see dependency resolution and a reasonable way for historically reproducible builds (prod runs server 1.0.4 which is 5 years old, let's build that locally to do some bug fixing, using the same dependencies, gradually bringing it up to current 3.7.1...).

Sounds like the lifecycle management of deno projects will about as much fun as php before package management. And about as reliable.

I find your rebuttal short sighted and frankly immature, no offense.

> In my experience wage offers were significantly lower in Europe when I was potentially looking about a year ago.

They are. But the median wages are good enough to raise a family and have a happy and peaceful life. Not everyone works for the top-tier companies.

If someone's goal is to optimize the amount of money they make and save, then for Tech US beats everywhere. That's not everyone's goal.

> People in the US certainly do not treat active shooters as a matter of normal life.

Agreed, but the frequency of being shot is higher in the US than in other developed countries. That does not mean the probability of a person getting shot in the US is very high, but certainly higher than other developed countries.

> I think you would find that most technology companies are in cities with walkability/public transit in the US.

This is certainly not true. There are some companies, in some cities with high walkability, but that's not true for most companies. Also in such cities, the cost of a home or rent is expensive for a family and so most people have to live miles away.

> Medical insurance at tech companies I’ve worked for in the US are very good. For example, I pay $20/mo and the theoretical maximum I would pay for insurance in any given year is $3000.

What happens if you lose your job? What about for people who don't work at the best companies (majority of the people).

> if you call the cops they won't shoot you
>> Again, I think you’re treating news as proof that this is a common occurrence

I agree with this though.

tl;dr: For people who don't prioritize $$$ and want to raise a family without a lot of PITA, Europe is great!

I got pretty tired of virtual happy hours and social events where there were people I was socially-adjacent to, but not very familiar with that I kept talking over. I've been working on https://mixaba.com to help solve that problem. It sorts people into small "rooms" and then shuffles the occupants so you get new people to talk to.

It's currently in MVP and I'd like to add more "fun" features to it to push it further into the social space and keep it out of the enterprise territory that MS Teams and Zoom occupy.

Agreed. There are a few (very few) cases where in-person still wins heavily; clothing, for instance.

I'm really concerned about this. My Bay Area company is planning to go back to the office soon, but my kids are still home so I need to be home to help out with the child care. I'm one of the only ones on the team with little kids at home, so I'm going to be "that guy" that they have to remember to dial in. Hopefully the schools will get back open soon but it's not looking real good for that.

Yeah I think most people don't quite appreciate the difficulty and cost of optimizing for hardware and continually maintaining that through hardware cycles. In keeping things closed source Nvidia products have both the advantages of being easier to on-board due to simpler abstraction, and faster technical progress because there is less pushback from myriad parties when big inconvenient changes might need to happen at lower levels for hardware performance reasons kind of like if instead of x86 we instead settled on LLVM.
Or completely irrational investors. Or both, I suppose.

> There's a huge difference between a private CC# that you voluntarily use, and a government issued id# that you are required to provide on entry.

No one has proposed requiring a government id to enter a store, AFAIK. The huge difference is mostly academic for most people. Very few people outside the criminal underground transact solely in cash/bitcoin so that they can't be tracked.

> It's ok though, I'm of the opinion that we (as humans) do not deserve basic rights such as privacy, because we're fools who don't value them. Didn't realize HNers would help prove my point, though.

"We're fools" - is this the opposite of the royal we, where we means you?

> So, are you willing to provide us with a list of every store you've visited in the last month? I'll be waiting.

I don't see how posting that list on HN in response to a request by someone unknown to me for no reason is analogous to providing it to my government in order to help with contact tracing. Anyway the list would be very short, since I've been avoiding public places... well, like the plague.
> If a kid wants to hurt bullies with the intention that it will make other bullies afraid and so reduce the overall amount of bullying in schools then that would fit the definition.

You have no evidence that most school shooters communicated such a goal (although there might be an outlier). Or if you do, I'm curious what it is.

Terrorists have a tangible goal, typically coupled with demands, not some hidden intention you make up to shoehorn a person into the definition. Even Elliot Rodger, who had a "manifesto", did not communicate any sort of demands or goals.

"False, there is the possibility of me awarding you prize B. So here's prize C"

The answer is false and evaluation is true until the prize is actually given. Then the answer becomes true and the evaluation false.

I wonder if the question could be reworded somehow to say that the prize being awarded and the statement being evaluated true/false will happen at the same instant without taking the fun out of it.
This is cool. I did something similar for just poker (https://pokerinplace.app). Would love to chat and share notes.

The risks of building the frontend first take several forms. There is the eternal problem of the strategy people not understanding that the code can look like it works but not actually work.

And the risk of using mock data to populate a UI (to build it without any backend) is that we don't have good tools for tracking all of the places that we are still using mock data. This can lead to blind spots that make estimating delivery schedules very difficult. Because you may discover late in the process that some corner cases are still using fake data. And, it's a miserable way to work, trying to push through to a milestone when you have no idea how much further you have to go.

news 'ideally' has nothing to do with 'want' it is about the latest new information. It is not supposed to be entertaining, it is supposed to transfer information. Again, those are ideals, and reality of human behavior rarely meets them.
What's really broken is car culture and the way that we have banned any sort of walkable/bikeable/transit lifestyle except in very tiny areas of the country. These parts that are walkable/bikeable/have good transit are massively overpriced because we have legislated away this option for far too many people.

I walk to work, and a lot of my work involves close collaboration in ways that teleconferencing makes really hard (math or other collaborative diagramming over Zoom? Hah!). And the lag makes a lot of communication extremely difficult. Perhaps we will learn to deal with our inadequate technology, or maybe the tech will get better, but my frustration level has gone through the roof with working from home.

So though I despise the hours-in-a-car-per-day requirement that our city planning has forced on people, I also had a bad reaction to your initial comment :)
I see it from the opposite side. This won't be employee-pulled, but company-pushed.

Many organizations are going to be significantly cash-strapped at the end of this recession. One of the juiciest targets will be cutting the high fixed cost of office leases. Especially in expensive areas like Silicon Valley. If a company can push the average employee to work from home 3 days a week, they can convert to floating desks and cut their real estate costs by 50% or more.
I did some number crunching on UBI a while ago. It's totally doable by taxing everybody more with heavily progressive taxes.

ditto. we were importing masks from an FDA authorized manufacturer: Suzhou Sanical under their private label: Maskin Model 9015 and literally after delivering thousands of them, the CDC put out a PSA about FAKE Maskin masks.

The boxes were similar but clearly knockoffs and it pretty much decimated the demand for Maskin branded masks even though we knew ours were authentic. Due to the bad press, the manufacturer then was put on notice by the Chinese government as well and ever since, we haven't been able to get a reliable amount of KN95's from them.

There honestly isn't very much information out there right now on masks and the differences and we're erring on the side of only putting out facts versus subjective information.
Hi folks, I'm the turbo nerd mentor. :) Systems biology and comp sci was a weird combo in 1992, but it led me to working on cool systems like NFS, FreeBSD, the Human Genome Project, IMAP, Solaris Containers, and eventually browsers (Firefox). It's been fun and super satisfying to occasionally see technology I had a hand in make new things possible for developers. At Joyent I helped create an environment for Ryan and Isaac to build up the nascant node.js community and that experience stuck with me as something to be repeated. New things require space and time and support, and that's why I'm here doing this new Mozilla incubator. Maybe we already have the next node.js - hi deno! - but what about zero knowledge proofs deployed against the 1000 different places in the Internet where the landlords tax us today? Can't wait to see what you all want to build. I'm around all day, ama!
I was actually surprised that NVIDIA went through with it, it seems like a straightforward trademark case. Two types of computer processor that share a marketing name.

Check airbnb, vrbo, craigslist, or if you're looking at a vacation hotspot, local realtors often do monthly vacation rentals. Monthly rentals are often much cheaper on a per-day basis than weekly rentals. Your SF rent is going to go extremely far just about anywhere else. I am renting a 2br vacation house on the beach for less than the price of studio.
