Leftist ideology is not inherently authoritarian, and many authoritarian leftist regimes imprisoned or executed the anti authoritarian lefists in their midst. I am an anti-authoritatian, but there have always been anti-authoritarian leftists. Even Karl Marx had a well known contemporary critic with Peter Kropotkin:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Kropotkin

So you've made a mistake associating leftist ideology with authoritarianism. There is both authoritarian leftist ideology and non-authoritarian leftist ideology.

And then there's Ho Chi Minh of Vietnam. Their country was occupied by the French and later invaded by and viciously attacked by the United States. So they were communist and perhaps emphasized violent revolution, but how else could you gain your freedom from an occupying army?

But for a modern, United States-centric anti-authoritarian anarchist communist ideology, look up Communalism by Murray Bookchin. Bookchin was critical of Bernie Sanders in vermont as being too centrist.

I'm not familiar with this. Could you explain what this means? I couldn't find anything on it besides a Reddit post which wasn't very elucidating.
Even remote-first companies have limits on where they hire. Usually they hire in a given number of countries for example, but not all countries. Also, when you move countries in these companies you still need to get approval so that the legalities can be taken care of.

> If you work in the part of the company chasing one of the top 6 initiatives of the CEO, you’ll usually get promoted fast if you do well. You’ll also get paid a lot.

Sure, but those initiatives can suddenly change when the CEO changes or when the CEO changes strategy. Whole divisions can get shut down overnight.
Exactly! Reason why websites such as https://virtualmacosx.com are a thing.
And then there were those who said Microsoft "has changed". Time and time again, their entire plan was to "use open-source" and "free" incentives to get into the developer market.

Unless it is a hardware or a software project of the scale of Chromium or GitHub with millions of users, there is nothing that can stop Microsoft from rolling their own version. This unfortunately just confirms that once again.

"Guile-based Emacs is a branch of GNU Emacs that replaces Emacs’s own EmacsLisp engine with the Elisp compiler of Guile. It does not attempt to remove Elisp. One advantage is that Elisp will potentially execute faster"

Another initiative was posted here recently [1].

"GNU Emacs can currently execute Elisp code either interpreted or byte-interpreted after it has been compiled to byte-code ... exploiting libgccjit to achieve code generation using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) infrastructure. ... Though still a work in progress ... Native compiled Elisp shows an increase of performance ranging from 2.3x
up to 42x with respect to the equivalent byte-code"

Your cheerfulness is refreshing, but please don't take HN threads further on generic ideological tangents. Generic discussion is bad for HN generally (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...) and generic ideology is the worst subtype (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...). This is simply not a topic that can be discussed with any nuance or curiosity on a large, public internet forum. A flood of generic comments will inevitably get sucked in, drown out everything else, and soon people will be bashing each other over the head with clubs from the sacks they always keep handy.

“Free”? Do you have absolutely no attachments to where you live? People have social support networks - friends, families, places that they go to, classes they’re taking. Children who go to schools and have friends there and go to parks for play dates and birthdays.

Those are just one or two of the social costs. How much does it cost in real money to relocate a family of 3 or 4?

People who live close to work in an expensive area have traded money for time. Higher salary; shorter commute. They may not have the resources to move.

IMO, that’s a strange definition of free.

>most of them wont move "past the out of the box limits of things like WooCommerce and Shopify"

Many of those who never move past that phase were likely not candidates for custom development anyway. They'd likely have sold on eBay or Amazon, whereas Shopify offered them the chance to have their own "store".

That is, many who can spend $29/month (or whatever) for a Shopify store wouldn't have been able to spring for $5K or $10K+ to have a custom store built. I would bet that's the overwhelming majority of Shopify customers.

So, arguably, you might even say Shopify helped some companies to get to the place where they can afford custom development.

But, this whole store thing is just a narrow focus anyway WRT the idea of obsoleting devs. There are plenty of more complex/differentiated businesses that have sprung up since e-commerce, and by the time any of those things have been commoditized, there'll be still more to take their place in this ongoing evolution.

Going to show my age here, but I find that younger generations are much less concerned about privacy in the sake of self-promotion via social media. By definition, keeping user's data private when developing a sharing platform is prohibitive of gaining traction. Gathering users data for a non-sharing site, and then pivoting to a sharing platform without user's consent to use the existing data is absolutely 100% without a doubt wrong (should be criminal).

The US is stingier with child care and maternity leave than the rest of the world

https://theconversation.com/the-us-is-stingier-with-child-ca...

The US is on a short list of countries that don't provide maternity leave. All the others are dirt poor. We have no such excuses.

We have terrible healthcare policies. At one time, it was somewhat common for dad to be the primary breadwinner and have a decent job with benefits, including healthcare for the wife and kids. Mom worked part time or was a homemaker.

Now, even if both parents work, the kids may not be automatically covered on either parent's healthcare policy from work. They may have to pay extra for that. (Though I'm not clear how much Obamacere changed that.)

In much of Europe, it is still somewhat common for the extended family to help raise the kids, daycare is generally more readily available, maternity leave is the norm, etc.

You don't have to try hard at all to find countries with better family-friendly policies than the US, even without having sophisticated, well-thought-out ideas about what that should mean.
Most people have to pay for ACA plans out of pocket, and those plans still have massive coinsurance. 20-30% typically, which when your total hospital bill is $50k-100k, still adds up to enough to wreck most US family finances.
It's kind of an aspect of the tragedy of the commons. If you yourself haven't done anything to contribute towards a solution then likely it's also what's going on for everyone else.

Basically everyone (me included) is just completely baffled why nothing is improving and just sitting there waiting for something to be done.

I recommend the south bay if you want to escape the poverty, it's not as bad down there.

Ask HN: Why did you start working in a startup?
The system in question is not closed, as the state change requires application of external energy. Thus expecting a conservation of the initial energy only may be unwarranted.

My intuition is that there's a missing counter-action energy which would be required in order to maintain the initial state in such a circuit. Once the state change is being effectuated (switch closed), it would change the balance of action-counter-action which would lead to dissipation in the real world. Not sure how to quantify/formalize it.

Which Dell laptops did you buy?

Dell manufactures the whole spectrum of laptop quality, from cheap Walmart garbage to high-end mobile workstations. If you buy their consumer-grade stuff, yeah, it's often junk. But their business- and professional-oriented laptops are usually decent quality. Latitude and Precision, for example. I have both of those and they've been workhorses for me.

Mid-range Thinkpads would also be a fairly safe bet.

We see that too: 25ms one-way latency is the max to stay in sync, and that includes both internet + audio device encode/decode, which gets eaten up quite fast!

We are looking at providing an optional premium networking service to offer a faster connection as an alternative to the open internet. Nothing too expensive, like $10/month is the goal. Hope that gets you and your friends under that magic threshold when it's available, if you try it out.
My dell died recently and I wasn't sure why, since all the components that I could check were working. It seemed like the thing just had no power. I sent it for recycling after stripping some parts, but now I wonder if this was the issue I had. I didn't get a Dell for my replacement, so I'm happier now with a lighter, nicer computer anyways.

No one but myself is involved, or even know they exist (unless I put links to them somewhere public).

On the other hand, someone owns and operates .soy, and has to actually approve new domains getting created. Part of that process could be a step that automatically screens for scammy looking registrations.

This might be an unfair criticism, but prometheus didn't impress me. Last time I found that it cannot even compute "average CPU usage of all jobs whose name starts with X" - what it can do is to compute "average CPU usage of each job whose name starts with X" and then average these numbers.

So what's the issue, you ask? Well, if you're averaging over one week, and one of these jobs ran for exactly one hour with 1.0 CPU, then the average for that particular job is 1.0/24/7 = 0.00595! Now imagine averaging these numbers and wondering WTF has gone wrong.

Surely there exists better terminology for this than a highly regionally contextual qualifier. Perhaps democratic socialist, or social democrat, or something involving welfare? Overloading the word with other meanings just adds fuel to the fire of inaccuracy and hyperbole in political discourse, perhaps recently most often in the US.

Hello Chris
I am in the middle of taking my organization http://BrightRay.com in this direction.

1) Did you find that sending people to these productized pitches had a higher conversion rate, or are you doing it differently?

2) Are you making more money or similar money?

3) Has this cut don on the back and forth bullshit that is a residue of traditional consulting?

4) Where do you find your new clients?
Odds of an adult being able to talk with the child in an informative way in a non-emergency situation and help them make a better decision for themselves: Extremely high.

You don't have to boss the kid around and treat them like a puppet you control to help them make better decisions.

Obviously (and it should go without saying, but I will say it anyway): Emergency situations are an exception. You can and should stop a child from sticking their hand in the fire without trying to nicely and at length talk them out of it while they are in the midst of doing so anyway.

You will also de facto be making a fair number of decisions on their behalf when they are below a certain age. Infants can cry to let you know something is wrong, but they can't tell you they need to be fed, etc. Adults have to do their best to figure out what the issue is and address it.

Good parents typically don't have a policy of "Oh, just let them cry it out." They typically feel that a crying child requires parental intervention to solve whatever their problem is.

(Exception: It's okay for them to just cry for emotional reasons. I never tried to convince my kids to stop crying about being told "no" or whatever. If you know they are crying because small kids have big feels, let them cry. No big deal.

But babies don't typically cry for emotional reasons. They cry because they have a problem that needs to be addressed.)
Well you deserved some credit for having the curiosity and energy to read about these things. Weak candidates know nothing more than what was fed to them in their last class.

Your argument is a false equivalence and seeks to absolve China of its crimes against humanity by pointing a finger at Americans for unrelated things. (aka "whataboutism")

Americans had a problem with caging children at the border. Attention was immediately drawn to the abuses there, and several federal lawmakers visited the facilities to observe conditions and draw more media coverage to the situation.

There are three people charged in the death of Ahmaud Arbery, due to massive outcry across our country.

About a hundred thousand Japanese Americans were wrongly detained, during World War 2, out of fear they may be disloyal to the United States. Laborers in those internment camps were paid and reparations were later paid and Congress formally apologized. BTW "a generation" is 30 years, not 78.

Xinjiang camps are slave labor camps, motivated not by war but by ethnic and religious differences, and they imprison ten to thirty times more people than the Japanese internment camps ever did. Inmates are tortured, brainwashed with Communist propaganda, subjected to unethical medical practices, and forced to violate their own religious beliefs.

This is all happening now, not almost a century ago. It involves millions of people, not a hundred thousand. And it has been defended by the Chinese government and media, rather than being a point of contention for lawmakers and journalists domestically.

The US and China are not alike.
As if it should even matter! (I'm not saying you're wrong, just that the viewpoint you describe is ridiculous and archaic.)

If a business can't measure its productivity absent the employees in the office, then it's not a real business. Now a business owner might think "Hey, I paid for those hours, so if they aren't working every minute of every work hour, I'm losing money!" That might make sense in a "production heavy" environment, like factory labor, construction, fire fighting, etc., but there is a growing number of businesses that can operate asynchronously, and existing businesses should still consider shifting towards asynchronicity because, as much as it might seem more expensive on the surface, said businesses can already operate at lower base overhead, and even if an employee takes hours off their day to travel, run errands, etc., you're still usually paying them a base salary to get X work done by Y deadline. Being worried about an employee "not working" for part of the day because they work remotely is nonsensical for office type jobs where employees tend to work solitarily.
This really hits on a lot of nerves of the general HN crowd (especially when these things are combined):

- Google

- "Censorship" (loosely defined)

- China (vs India vs a US company, which could really be its own point)

But if you read the article it seems to be a logical decision. Google (likely) did something similar for zoom: https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/03/24/zooms-android-app-r...

Assuming there's nothing left out by the author, I don't really think there's anything newsworthy here, just something that google did that aligns with its past actions (not to say it doesn't belong on HN)
