Let's assume that you are able to create a social network the scale of Facebook and network effects aren't an issue (let's imagine a magical solution that interoperates with existing social networks in such a way that accounts work on either side and content is visible from both sides) with the caveat that you instantly ban accounts that participate in political flamewars, intentionally spread misinformation/fake news, etc. You're going to end up banning a significant chunk of people that would otherwise make you money if you just turned a blind eye to the problem like current social networks do.
LWN editor here.

We are always looking for writers who can create quality articles and aren't afraid of writing for readers who know more about the subject matter than they do (or anybody else does, for that matter). We're interested in news from the free-software development community; we don't do how-to articles or "five reasons your company should be using DevOps".

The cited rate is our entry rate; we try to bump things up fairly quickly for authors who do good work for us. As others have noted, we care deeply about the material we publish, so there is definitely some time to be spent in the editing process.

Could go something like this. Say Elon Musk, he will have a subscription tweet feed that users can subscribe to, all users of the subscription get to see the posts first. The free users will see them after 24hrs. Since twitters strength is real time, they can sell from that strength.
That's clever, but you're going to confuse readers and interrupt the flow of the article if you omit a unit where people expect one.
That billion is not a charity, but comes with some people pursuing some things. Most of the time that "things" are to make a PR stunt, inflate and sell.

Exactly this. People fall for the blackshine of FAANG and large corporations etc. but this is just a PR. In reality, the larger the company is (was working for a few bluechips as subcontractor, including two from FAANG), more miserable is life for a developer that has still some life. It is a golden cage, where the largest problem is huge number of different "best practices" as they try to streamline the job. Endless discussions, processes, politics,...

For someone young, corporations are waste of life. See the world, get expiriences and when you are over 40 and you are sick of adventures take your enourmous CV and join the corp to wait for a pension. You will like the peacefull pace and they will love not having problems with you.

Suggestion over the thumb, before employing in large company, check two things. Number of manager levels from team manager to CEO and how fast they got additional levels of management. This will tell you all about the company you are joining.

I'm more concerned with the way that recent grads and bootcamp grads will interact with everything else.

Reference equality is a huge source of confusion for them. Structural equality is what they expect.
I think it is basic economics supply and demand for the most part. There is also imperfect information and the need for good negotiation.

Look at collectible cars or houses high demand areas. People are going to pay above asking price.

I think the same is true of very talented individuals. I was seeing compensation figures of 1M+ for C++ developers that can design high speed trading systems last year. I think AI researchers are able command higher compensation due to the lack of supply.

> a Harvard graduate student made a landmark discovery about the nature of human anger.

the article doesn't credit the inuits with the discovery.

> By contrast, Briggs seemed like a wild child, even though she was trying very hard to control her anger. "My ways were so much cruder, less considerate and more impulsive," she told the CBC. "[I was] often impulsive in an antisocial sort of way. I would sulk or I would snap or I would do something that they never did."

One thing to note in why RIP could have never been successful, aside from originally being closed-source, is while it was vector-based in nature the specification called for a static sized view port of 320x200. Future revisions of the spec could have fixed this but it would have missed the window to be relevant going from BBS to WWW.

Social medias have been silencing every conservative opinion on their platforms, because most of their employees can't stand different opinions. These people are unmanageable and want to make activism using a platform they don't own. At the same time they look the other way when it comes to progressive comments. If he doesn't like different opinions, intrinsic to democracy, maybe we should ask Mr Wang's parents if they miss China.
So this didnt come across in the title - but the first company they use as an example is one Amazon actually did invest in? And that was four years before the "competing" product (which is literally just providing data for AI training as far as I can tell)? I'm not sure what I'm missing, but that reads like if coke invested in an energy drink brand and four years later launched another energy drink brand. It's basically a commodity and it's 4 years after the fact- what's so controversial here?

That’s weird. I’ve never been convicted of anything, but I was a suspect once, briefly. It’s funny to realize that could actually impact my life in any way.

Also, I wonder how the insurance company would ever know someone was a suspect, if they weren’t arrested. Sometimes, suspects don’t even realize they’re suspects.

> HN seems to think police spend their shift waiting for crimes to happen in front of them.

No, but when they aren't responding to calls, they spend the rest of their shift going on fishing expeditions.

What do you think traffic cops, for instance, are doing most of their day? What about the cruiser slowly driving through a neighbourhood? They aren't there to respond to a call, they are just running license plates/looking for poorly maintained cars to pull over (Obviously, if someone egregiously breaks traffic rules in front of them, they don't need to look very far - but when nobody's breaking the rules, they can always find someone who looks suspicious.)

The thing is, when you only go on fishing expeditions in poorer neighbourhoods/targeting poorer vehicles, you're going to find that will skew crime statistics - and statistical model based on that will direct even more policing towards those areas.

It's why in the United States, the higher you are on the income ladder, the more illegal drugs you consume - yet the lower you are on the income ladder, the more likely you will end up in prison for drug use.

Some of the stuff in here is obvious stuff that nonetheless is great to get reminders of, like leading by example. There was a unique piece that really intrigues me: Putting on a play/putting on a drama.

"Putting on a drama" seems like a pretty romanticized way to say it, but if I understand correctly, it's practicing better responses to events that led to bad behavior. "Johnny, I'm going to steal your toy, and instead of hitting me like you hit your brother, use your words." That kind of explicit practice/rehearsal of skills isn't something I'd have thought of, but it makes total sense as a valuable way to teach and learn.

I don't think "encourages violence" is the standard that's being applied here. For example, on the 14th of June 2017, a political activist who'd been radicalized by Facebook made a list of elected members of Congress, went up to them, and asked them about their party affiliation before opening fire on them. There were zero mainstream calls to for Facebook to crack down on the communities or content that radicalized him, and this incident is almost completely absent from the narrative about the dangers of Facebook. Not only that, respectable mainstream media organisations like the New York Times falsely claimed that actually, the party that had been targetted was the one whose rhetoric was causing members of Congress to be shot, erroneously blaming the shooting of Gabby Giffords on them when in reality it seems to have been inspired by anger at her specifically that had nothing to do with national partisan politics at all.

Did they get second and third professional opinion? You need to do your due diligence with these diagnostic tests in my experience as a patient, it falls on our shoulders to make an informed decision on carrying out invasive preventive procedures (risk - lifelong side effects vs reward - preventing cancerous tissue growth, etc.).

Otherwise you can end up in a situation where you regret not taking action sooner when things have taken a turn for the worst e.g. terminal illness that could have been prevented if caught earlier e.g. metastasizing cancer cells

That’s not what I would call the nice thing about bitwarden_rs. What I would call the nice thing is single-user total disk usage under 20MB and memory usage under 30MB, with totally negligible CPU usage. The official server requires SQL Server and quotes recommends 4GB of RAM and 25GB of disk space as a minimum, though I imagine the true minimum it could survive with would be a good deal less. (Still, I do appreciate being able to generate TOTP codes, which is paid functionality with the official server.)
What if the "personal" project is like "introduce this new tooling to the team, get it integrated into our CI pipeline"?

First of all, my post was quite clearly interpreting a prior comment, not making a claim of my own about whether anyone should be disappointed.

But since we're here: the gnashing of teeth on this thread about having been "mislead" does seem to me to be a bit out of proportion. This person really does seem to have developed a cool toy that uses AI to generate convincing abstract art, but many here aren't saying about it because they object to some of the wording on the landing page!

It's their own fault, of course, for writing the page the way that they did. But still...
you're right, the range of situations that can be considered "selling drugs" is pretty absurd. for instance, if a bunch of kids pool their money to get a better deal on a larger amount, the one who actually makes the buy and splits it up can be charged with distribution even if they don't make any money off the transaction.

that said, I don't think most people who aren't a part of that world would want to live next to an actual dealer. in some ways the "retail" folks can be the worst to live near. if they sell out of their home, it brings a lot of undesirable traffic to the area.
I was thinking "what's the point?" until I reached the section on equality:

This is massively useful.
> One can lie for multiple reasons. For instance, to avoid conflict; or because one is not in a mood. Deception is one among many reasons.

In all of those cases deception is the purpose of lying, the other purposes described aren't alternatives to deception, they are the purposes for which one seeks to deceive.

It's true that focussing on this has a nexus with Christian moral theory and it's influence on secular morality, since Christian moral theory distinguishes between bad ends sought deliberately as intermediate means to permissible ends and bad ends which are incidental to acts seeking permissible ends.

I just don't see, or at least recognise, this type of behaviour elsewhere. See a post on guns or free speech and the flames that erupt amongst USAians, they have a very different character to the ones about china.

> This shows that these perceptions are not objective

Inevitably, but that does not in itself eliminate their being actual differences, and these being of a nature different from other flames ie. being backed not by ultranationalistic citizens of some country, but by a concerted centralised interference.

This is exactly the point I'm trying to explain to my friends that are outraged that Facebook didn't censor Trump's post. I think Facebook is one of the worst companies out there, but for other reasons.

The issue with Facebook is not about censoring the post that we don't like, it's about removing that polarization that comes with a platform that wants to get you hooked so they can sell you more ads.

Facebook and other social media are making us HATE each other because that's what they make money on. The debate should be around how can you build an ethical social platform that values your time and opinions.
Not trying to come across as judgemental. But if I may ask, did you at the time feel like that was an ethical thing to do?
Requiring everyone to discuss this every few years seems like a surefire strategy to exhaust people. It normalizes the idea, if nothing else.

Yes, but where it goes off the rails is when people expects the corporation to act against their own incentives. When people complain about compensation they get confused about how compensation is set.

Pay is not about the value you bring as much as it is about your leverage in negotiations. There’s many ways to get leverage like being the only person who can solve the problem, or systemic levers like unions.

If people aren’t getting paid adequately it’s usually because they don’t have the negotiation leverage to fix it. Conversely, we all probably know people who are of dubious value yet can command handsome salaries because they have some unique leverage.
