I am not sure what your problem is.

As a direct neighbor of DE ( I am in NL ), DE seems to have been very generous accepting refugees. A bit too generous for some.

For EU citizens, the EU is a labor transfer union by design. These 'imported laborers' were not forced, they took their chances.

Are you seriously suggesting it is a problem foreigners are not making up the board of directors of German companies?

Still, I have no clue why you are bringing all of this into this discussion, although it reeks of projection.
I am saying that in opposition.

Sellers do not overwhelm buyers _when_ the price goes down, or vice-versa. There is no "overwhelming" of one group over the other. Nor do prices go down _because_ of an independent phenomenon other than buying and selling. The price is judged on the _value_ sellers and buyers ascribe to the stock at a given time. If they match, a transaction takes place. In the end there are always exactly equal buyers as there are sellers.
I more of a mental chemistry kind of guy and it was often harder for me to find somebody who had the same mental wavelength similar to mine. I suppose MB could be a way forward to achieve such a goal.

I have been thinking to integrate AI to derive personality and make the user experience lot better rather than using a form for MB.
Thank you for the article! Very interesting!
I think that there needs to be a balance. Neither extreme redistribution nor extreme capitalism seem to work well for society as a whole.

I also think that we need more progressive taxation and social benefits which would offset some of the price increases.

But do you know who else does this for you? A dog.

I've never promoted anyone who likes me or respects me or vouched for me, I promote those who are reliable and have have skills to achieve the task at hand, one who will not betray themselves or their company for some kickback.

I think it's a knee-jerk feeling that during an emergency you shouldn't refuse to work because you are making it harder on everyone else, as well as taking advantage of the emergency. That sounds reasonable enough, until you think about the fact that unless they organize and demand improvement now they won't have the leverage to do it after the emergency is over.
I believe universal income, along with every other manifestation of the social democratic welfare state, is a civilizational dead end, and any society that adopts it is putting itself on the path to irrelevance and national extinction.

My thought is that if you value your own life, and the lives of your descendants, you must make the drastic decision to escape any society that embarks on the path to UBI.
I am often amazed at how executive pay is overlooked in these debates. I have no qualms with founders making a pretty penny from taking the risk of starting the company. Most executives appointed once company has gained momentum don't deserve the huge pay they get. Don't get me wrong they deserve to be well paid but not as much as we are paying them. I have been in companies where people said to be "absolutely" critical leave announced and company continues to function without missing a beat.
The issue is the consumer harm that comes from the combination of not trusting Amazon to deliver the qualities you care about for a certain class of product and there being no alternative suppliers because Amazon drove them out of business.

It seems like there aren’t any middle-quality products anymore: you can buy a cheap plastic item that never works quite right and will break next month, or you can buy a chrome-plated showpiece item that costs too much. Where’s the non-disposable, ugly, bulletproof utility version these days?

JavaScript is a language that's neither abstracted from the basic programming concepts nor its syntax is alien. Most of the people who picked it up can learn many other mainstream programming languages in a week, if not a weekend. Add 1-2 more weeks and they're writing GUI code.

Yet, they don't.

JavaScript is popular for pragmatic reasons (a.k.a. "it delivers results"), so is PHP. They aren't the best languages, but developers who choose them aren't simpletons who can't code in other languages.
I am often amazed at how good HN readers are at valuing labour of both workers and executives.
You're saying that amateurs have an easier time adjusting to changes in stock markets than professionals. Even suggesting that people should trade short. Now why should a professional argue against that? Amateur volume is good for business.

I very much doubt that is a major reason. Language itself is rarely the issue, unless you're reusing code from other parts of the project (which many projects are, e.g. VS Code with Monaco).

I have spent far too much time on HN recently in related discussions.

Having access to libraries like React and its huge ecosystem is a big plus for productivity (example vs. Qt at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23154315).

Building custom UIs is also very easy with the flexibility that HTML provides (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23164595), even though it can be done with other technologies (and there are some examples of that).
There are other editors for Swift out there, like AppCode. I do hate the fact that I'm forced to upgrade to a new OS version somewhere within half a year. Cataline was barely tolerable when I had to jump to it.

>For EU citizens, the EU is a labor transfer union by design. These 'imported laborers' were not forced, they took their chances

No it's not that simple, other EU countries had to open their market to technologically superior Western European nations who had better quality highly skilled labor and capital.

If it was simple, labor movement - I wouldn't even be bringing this up.

>Are you seriously suggesting it is a problem foreigners are not making up the board of directors of German companies

Yes it based on the fact number of immigrants Germany has.

What if I want only HN to be dark? Can I configure it per site yet?

I have no issues with 3 options:

- Use browser

- Dark

Though. I think it’s too much configuration though.
Not quite. Everything runs as PID 0. :-)

There are no processes here. Everything runs inside the kernel. You don't have exec(), fork() or similar.
These techniques greatly reduce the sharpness of the resulting art. Anti-aliasing also depends on the resolution, making it impossible to scale the result without degrading quality. For example, many old mobile video games had anti-aliased fonts which looked fine on small screens but became almost unreadable when scaled to modern screen resolutions.

What's the average P/E ratio these days? 20-ish? That implies a direct return of 5% (what's the English word for this?), assuming no future growth or reduction in earnings.

That's a low risk premium if you measure it against historical interest rates, but it doesn't seem completely unreasonable when interest rates are expected to be ~0% for the forseeable future, and the inflationary pressure on the dollar could be on the order of 40%.

It's certainly very high in historical terms, but you can't consider the history in isolation.
Yes, that's what you said, and to make your point, you compared Rust to two super new languages that are still mostly developed by a single person and not being used anyware.

Then you rectified yourself, and more accurately compared Rust with Haskell and other languages. At this point you already gave up on your initial argument, because no-one would consider Haskell too small to be a proper benchmark of a new functional programming language.

Of course, as this is an internet argument, you're not going to recognize it. Now, since we are now circling back to the initial claims, I don't think this conversation is worth pursuing.
Have a nice (and safe) day.
> In 2012, we were still a fairly scrappy startup of about 150 employees.

Perhaps it's just the changing definition of the word "startup", but the idea of a 150-employee startup being described as "scrappy" made me chuckle.

Use the Redis API on DynamoDB
And yet I still see people arguing either:

* for social darwinism or survival of the fittest, trying to say inequality is normal

* that labor is necessary despite the great advances in technology. Those people would rather see people working as servants, in fast food, uber, cashiers, etc, than have those people educating themselves or lead more fulfilling lives.

The level of pedanticism I read from people arguing about "basic economics", is just a problem of politics.
+1 for being a rad dad. I built a box when I was younger with my dad. Fun times.
These factors aren't causal.

In western countries at least, an obvious confounded for those of asian or black ethnic descent is _poverty_ and thus access to healthcare, malnutrition, sleep deprivation, poor education and everything else that goes with poverty.

Correct. But in this Imaginary scenario it will Certainly be more expensive than current amazon. Is that more acceptable, to say the poorest in society, than bad worker conditions?

This is very well put. I've worked in tech for both startups and corporations. I've moved around a lot and I've come to the same conclusion.

The effects of tech monopolies are particularly obvious to those who work in open source.

For example, it's extremely common to find that some very expensive third-party services have free open source alternatives available - These open source communities are often struggling to stay alive. Big tech corporations hire thousands of engineers in-house and so it would cost them nothing extra to use the open source solution (they already have the engineering capacity to implement and manage it). But they won't! They will happily pay millions of dollars of fees annually to get something that they could have gotten for free and maybe paid an optional $20K per year 'tech support' fee to the open source community. Not only that, but their system would be way more flexible because the corporation would have full control over the open source code and their own data. For example, the $400 million that Facebook spent on acquiring Giphy could have been saved if they had used an open source solution instead. Heck, they could have built Giphy themselves from the ground up in a couple of months using open source solutions for very little additional engineering cost.

Corporations have no incentives to be efficient; instead they will use some expensive provider because the CEOs of both companies are friends. They have a monopoly so they can afford to be very wasteful.
Unless you spend literally hours outside every day, it's not likely to be enough.

Get some cod liver oil, drink a tablespoon every day. Does wonders.
Hand sanitizer is also easy to manufacture and I haven't seen it in a local store for over 10 weeks. The ease to manufacture is just one of the steps to getting it on the shelves. Also getting vitamin D from the sun isn't an option for some people, especially those with darker skin.

The difference between masks and vitamin D is that one is proven to work and one might work. If vitamin D doesn't help as much as people here are claiming, there is a real downside if people are behaving as if it works. That applies to my arbitrary example of beach gatherings as well as other behavior the government has no hope of preventing.

Once again, this doesn't necessarily mean that vitamin D doesn't help. We just need better data. The early indication was that hydroxychloroquine helped too and we all know how that turned out.

What are you suggesting? Literally destroy all of civilisation to do what? Hire infinite care workers?

> bailouts for airlines and fucking car manufacturers.

So you don't want anything of society to remain? You want all efforts of existence to be focused on care workers?
You make a good point.

Australia has a liveable minimum wage, and all full time employees receive four weeks annual leave and two weeks sick leave, while casual employees receive a higher minimum wage but typically no paid leave / sick leave.

We also have a permanent part-time level where the conditions are somewhere between.

That doesn’t mean all employment in Australia is not-shit, but it probably helps.
Given the current scenario, isn't all pay hazard pay?

Edit: And it's mentioned in the article as well:

> The token comes as Amazon announced it would be cutting the $2 per hour wage hike it brought in for staff in mid-March as hazard pay for coming in during the pandemic.

The "Hazard Pay" was a pay rise for coming in during the pandemic, which as far as I can see hasn't ended yet. Cutting hazard pay right now, in real terms, is cutting pay.

Not using 'any' is also perfectly fine, as you can with Javascript, Python, Ruby, etc.. And I guess that most companies just don't understand how I use Coffeescript.

Besides, I am not against others using Typescript, it's a fun experiment and a great opportunity for front-end developers to learn about static typing, enjoy it if you can! For me it unfortunately doesn't work, I've never gained from it because I generally don't have type issues. It's a pain in the ass that's constantly bugging me, pulling me out of the flow. It's a monster of a tool that tries to solve a problem I don't have.

I think that's a poor summary of the paper, here's the rest of the abstract:

"There is some evidence that daily vitamin D3 supplementation over weeks to months may prevent other acute respiratory infections, particularly in people with low or very low vitamin D status. This evidence has limitations, including heterogeneity in study populations, interventions, and definitions of respiratory infections that include upper and lower respiratory tract involvement."

"The current advice is that the whole population of the UK should take vitamin D supplements to prevent vitamin D deficiency. This advice applies irrespective of any possible link with respiratory infection."

The title is purposefully misleading.

Amazon is not handing out ‘Thank you’ T-shirts to its warehouse workers.

It is handing out “Thanks to you, we will deliver” T-shirts to its fulfillment associates.

It is a societal statement on their power dynamics, not a hypocritical act.

Amazon wants to be seen as exploitative today, because it will morally justify the layoffs tomorrow once all this is automated away.
The poorest in society, at least in a functioning capitalist society, are those either employed according to the minimum regulations or those receiving state benefits. By raising both of these, we raise the purchasing power of the poorest in society, hopefully in a way that is commensurate with the increased costs.

We are able to provide both good working conditions and a living wage to all people. We can afford it.
this has a terraforming potential for enterprise software, if inplemented. I wish you luck.
Nope, I am not saying cease growing.

From my POV the most productive growth amazon can make as a company would be engaging in better ESG practices There are forms of capital outside of material assets and intellectual property.

Amazon is losing human capital (tbray as a high profile example, but I am sure he's the tip of an invisible and silent iceberg)
Amazon is losing brand capital which will hit the bottom line (ethical consumption is an ever increasing trend)
Amazon will continue to irk Governments with its lack of respect for sovereignty laws (tax in particular, but also labour and monopoly).

It didn't. The fact is Russian Empire was very illiterate populationюThe thing is dew to the fact that the big part of highest society was well educated with French and German culture the lowest society was ready to follow everyone who will level up their standard of living. The same practically was in the Germany with nazi and the same was in USA. The low level reading always lead to misunderstanding between the government and people. Understand me in a right way, When it was USSR the population was very educated but there were also such people as we call it intelligentsia who were disappointed with the situation in the country and it grew into the protests and to the GuLAG but this is another story :)I am sure people need to travel to grow their mind, their scope... get aquatinted with other cultures.

I am not the best person to comment on this as I have been married for 20 years and so have never had to live through the whole modern dating scene, but I think the problem with your idea is that MB personality types are not equal distributed between men and women. This is likely the reason why you have trouble finding someone on your mental wavelength.

The bigger problem in my opinion is crazy/damaged people. If you could find a way of screening out the crazies via AI you would have a major hit.
