That’s not the situation I am describing. There is no shortage of work for this particular business. The business owner wants all of the employees to return to full time hours. As a group they are unwilling to work full time hours because they would lose the $600 booster.
We had a discussion about this in high school, I think my junior year. Most of these types of discussions were very lopsided, so the teacher would usually have to encourage people to take the “bad/unpopular” position somehow. But this one was right down the line in my class and produced a lively debate. I still think about it, but my opinion hasn’t changed — it was the correct decision.

Higher density living conditions results in conditions that significantly increase transmission of diseases. Mass transit won't help due to crowded conditions.

You'll be happy to note that these are issues often tackled in articles posted to Hacker News.

One thing you'll surely find: battering people over the head by posting the same thing (or nearly same thing) over and over again isn't one of the recommended strategies. Imagine how unreadable HN would be if everyone thought that was the way to acquire users.

Above, gus_massa has some good points. You probably had a few unexpected jams to solve along the way that would make for an interesting post.
There is nothing in your link that implies that prices are set by the four firms or that there is a cartel. 75% market share probably isn't even enough to effectively run a cartel.
Well, this is a personal position so I don’t see the value in sharing it, but since you asked: I’d rather be alive and evil than dead and good. After all, alive and evil I can be redeemed and die good after a fulfilling life. If I win, presumably following generations will talk about my courage at having turned my life around and any detractors of mine will find themselves outdone by my supporters - who will either be more numerous or will have the ability to call my detractors hypocrites since they only exist by my actions.

So the children will die if they must die. And they will live if it does not affect victory.

I think it would be useful to be able to explicitly search around knowledge graph entities or site topics, e.g. a programming language, a city, a season, without having that single/specific term.

So a search including all sites related to an entity, say Munich or python along with the terms the user is searching because a page might then not specifically include the entity in its keywords or the text on the site or have a different language or use a synonym.

I’m sure search engines consider this somewhat, but explicitly activating such a feature would be a great improvement for the user.

Stackexchange has this feature with tags (using []), with user curated tags. Would be nice to have in DDG or google.

I don't think we are. Vat grown meat is animal protein that's grown in controlled conditions in a lab by adding chemicals and mechanically "massaging" it. That's economically closer to growing a vegetable than raising cattle.

I don't think he is saying that encrypted communication should be illegal. He's saying that spreading lies through encrypted channels should be stopped. It would not be hard for WhatsApp to prevent people from spreading bogus videos, because they have access to the unencrypted information before and after sending. So either preventing people from sharing misinformation or preventing people from reading the misinformation. That's separate from the argument about whether or not it's a good thing (I wouldn't see a problem with it personally).

Could also be titled as "Apple's executive team think they can get away with claiming to be a leader in AI"

I would love to have heard where Apple thinks it's AI makes a market leading product. They talk a lot about AR - but they simply don't have an AR product. Remember a decade ago when y ou couldsuper-impose the constellations over your camera at night so you could stargaze and know what you're seeing?

That's pretty much how close Apple is to a real AR product right now.

Even if you buy the idea they're producing better products using AI, I think it's very difficult to argue that they're leading anyone.

yes, USSR squashing Kwantung army may have naturally led to a scenario where USSR forces could flood down south into China, Korea, may be even invade the North Japan, etc. with US having no troops there to "meet" USSR forces like it happened in Europe. Whether USSR had such plans doesn't matter really.

It is very telling that USSR offensive on August 9 was according to the plans made together with US months in advance, and so US could hardly time the 2 bombs better - one on August 6 and another several hours after the start of the offensive - to make such an extremely clear message.

Absolutely, I fear he has the same lack of principles regarding bodily autonomy and forced vaccinations.
Bill Gates certainly doesn’t have the credentials of a public health expert. His work with health experts has extended to funding and choosing what problems to solve.

You’d presume he’s learned a fair amount about it over the years. But I’ve learned a fair amount about accountancy through my years of working with corporate accountants. I’m definitely not an accountancy expert though.

What qualifications do you imagine he has? What significant work do you believe he has personally contributed to?

I think the basic problem with the American COVID-19 response is that US elites haven't faced a real crisis for so long that they don't have the institutional knowledge to know how to respond to a national-level crisis that can't be treated as a political problem.

Since WWII, the crises faced by the US have been small enough that American elites have been able to politically neutralize them with a combination of half-measures and concerted efforts to mold public opinion to shift blame onto disfavored groups, such as 'liberals,' urbanites, non-Christians, and/or non-Americans. Until COVID-19, it's seldom been politically necessary for America's elites to actually do something about America's crises as opposed to making sure that someone else takes the blame for them.

COVID-19 is different. It is a global-scale disaster that requires a competent national response and can't be politically neutralized because viruses aren't political actors. American elites, however, have no experience with this kind of crisis and have been unable to respond to it as anything but a political problem and, worse, as a source for graft. The results have been an abject failure in terms of lives lost, health lost, and economic damage.

(This is not a problem unique to the US. I have seen some comparative politics research that found a strong co-relation between poor national-level COVID-19 responses and the depth of internal political divisions. I speculate that highly divided societies make blame shifting by elites a favorable strategy for crisis response and erode the ability of elites to respond to real crises.)

So... do you keep picking new spokespeople when each one becomes unreasonably tarnished?

Because each and every person who promotes public health and (particularly) vaccination, eventually has so much baseless shit thrown at them that they become 'tarnished' before long.

Or should we try to make some sort of stand, and let the wingnuts know their opinions don't matter?

We see the effects of this sort of compromise in the vaccine space - perfectly safe additives were removed in an effort to assuage fears, but that action was twisted into a victory by antivax campaigners - "see, we were right, it was harmful, they lied, we forced them to remove it".

(Gates is tarnished in my eyes for computer industry reasons, but I have no issue with his record in public health)
FYI, brand new fusion splicers can be had for under a grand.
Did I despise MS od the 90s and their business tactics? Sure. But wether he pays taxes on his philanthropic endeavors doesn't really matter, what matters is that they exist and do some good in the world -- and certainly, spending money on health care is good in my book. So what makes him a "dark character" in your eyes?

A fascinating comparison with British steadfast resolve in the face of overwhelming force. Britons would fight on the beaches, and on the landing grounds and streets. They would never surrender, even against overwhelming odds.

Truly inspiring in comparison with the robotic obedience of the Japanese who would dig in to protect their island, whatever the cost may be.

Anyone who rigorously follows an ethical framework will eventually be lead to some conclusion(s) they dislike; utilitarianism is no guarantee of satisfaction.

An honest utilitarian would be willing to share their calculations, which would be interesting to see, though I am not sure how you'd balance the interests in the cases described above.
I think the idea is that the want to replace the cables rather (i.e. not centralized around a WiFi network). 5G is a bit faster too (apparently, not my area of expertise)

We have some team members who leave immediately when the core topics have been covered. Sometimes the PO suggests to them that their attendance is no longer needed, so they can either leave or stay (eg QA or designer who doesn’t need to hear that technical discussion). It’s a culture thing.
Yep. Knuth also has a chapter on it.
Yeah, nope yourself. It seems like a lot of people aren't really thinking this through very much.

And that is absolutely the wrong way to approach API development. An API that is being sun-setted should never be removed, because older clients could still use it but sometimes can't be upgraded to newer clients. Removing a v1 API breaks those clients and it's a shitty thing to do to users. Yeah, people should be building NEW things with it, but there's no reason to look at the v1 API with "disgust" as "deprecated" implies - It's simply an older version that should remain functional, if your system is worth half a shit. AWS doesn't terminate older API versions, they just create new versions. Or you can be like Facebook and "deprecate" stuff and just shut it down before your official shutdown date, or not give any notice at all - that's REALLY a fun culture to work in, I guess, for them. "deprecated" is a really negative word, and doesn't even really translate to anything good in terms of software development. It's my opinion that "depreciated" is a far better word and far better outcome when used in software development instead of "deprecated". YMMV.
It would indeed be very hard, if WhatsApp's own claim that messages are encrypted end-to-end is true. Either way (and I disagree that this should be a separate discussion) all methods of global speech control are eventually used for evil.

Google's search quality isn't why I blocked Google. I've wanted to block Google for over half a decade, but the excellence of their search stopped me. That stopped being an issue this year.
I hope it doesn’t catch on since it makes me die a little inside. It’s a very Reddit-type word though. I can easily imagine it being used by non-technical folk and tech journalists.
There basically wasn't a proper "modern day" pandemic before this. The previous one was the spanish flu in 1918 which was very quickly forgotten due to a much larger pointless massacre (world wars)

Air travel increase is a big factor why it got so bad so quickly, even in the past two decades basically everything has changed. We have hundreds millions of people basically teleporting between continents every day.
Ironically, the first news article I stumbled across after leaving HN just now was “Simon Cowell broke his back falling off an electric bicycle”.
Worth mentioning that even if you put a term in double quotes, Google still tries to be too clever - you are not guaranteed to get results that contain your quotes search term :/
Yeah, what on earth? I’m working fewer hours because once I get a reasonable amount of work done (i.e. about what I would have done in the office) I close my laptop and stop for the day. I’m shocked by the number of people saying they’re working longer out of lack of anything else to do. That’s really sad.
It has to do with Gates' vaccine program in India. Here is a paper you can read. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30111741/
Haha, an entertaining conclusion to this conversation. I enjoyed that.
I worked a good number of years doing tech in fashion.

Figure that there is a 100-1000% markup for a garment at retail. The jeans that cost $3 to make versus the ones that cost $13 will sometimes be durable, but you are basically buying the quality of the seamstress beyond materials at the higher price point.
> What new market is 5g enabling?

The more interesting feature in 5G is the signalling for IoT devices, those that wake up infrequently. Metering devices, handheld payment devices, patient home monitors, security systems, Airton, etc.

5G isn't really about more bandwidth but always on and more efficient use. This will enable more than just phones and a few tablets.
Honestly the syntax of Haskell is unnecessarily weird and I think this project is proof that it doesn't have to be. Haskell's syntax has really put me off learning it. I'd even say some parts of the syntax are elitist - they are almost deliberately - and unnecessarily! - hard for beginners but great if you are a language nerd and understand currying, lambda calculus and so on.

This is way better, but to be honest I don't think I'll use it because the extra easiness of learning with a sane syntax is probably going to be not worth the extra hassle caused by not learning the syntax that everyone else uses.

Still, great job! Now do the git CLI. :-)
The email specific queries don't appear to work. The "@" is ignored by google so you just get results for the domain string.
I could have been clearer in specifically condemning "fast fashion" rather than the high end (though I think the condemnation of that segment was also implied).

The reason I called out high-fashion is that it sets the trends and expectations for the rest of the industry. H&M and the like model their lines based on what the high end fashion industry says is in-vogue. They change this every season for no good reason other than to drive (false) demand at the mid and high end.

Other than that, nothing you wrote contradicts anything I wrote. Automobiles, travel and single use plastics are also valid issues but that's not the focus of this thread.
I thought my new xps 13 was good. Guess not
Removing APIs is not a great practice though. Look at AWS, they version their APIs, they don't just remove them, and removing them should be unnecessary if your underlying tech isn't brittle and badly written. "Depreciated" is a far better term to use, with a far better outcome in my opinion. Companies that remove old versions of APIs and break existing client apps (that possibly can't be udpated) really suck.
Longer explanation: I originally came up with the idea when I was looking for a new mouse for my WFH setup. There are hundreds of product review sites, but nothing like seeing what other people use. I know there are many popular subreddits like r/battlestations or r/workspaces, and even sites like deskhunt.com, mysetup.co, yourstack.com and kit.co, but I thought it be nice to have a dedicated site for this kind of thing. Not really sure what the differentiating factor is right now, but just wanted to get this prototype out there :)

Is there a tool to check for submissions of the same link?

Not just the site, but I mean the same link.
Agree with everything.
And I meant WWI + WWII since the second was unavoidable given how Germany was treated in the end of WWI.
A lot of that kind of conspiracy stuff, Alex Jones and the like, has another level or two involved.

Since this need for alternative narratives is a media market you get grifters who say what makes the most money and not what they actually believe. Not surprising at all, so expecting Alex Jones to seek actual truth completely misunderstands what he is doing and what he knows he is doing.

But if you have a political plan and it requires some people to believe a specific thing, but it is hard to convince people (for example, because it isn't true) you have a problem. If you are smart you start to think about how there are these professional convincers who are very popular and their business model is "say things that make me money" and you come up with a pitch for them.

It's not exactly news that one of the most prevalent types of actual historical conspiracies involve plans to spread untrue conspiracy theories as propaganda, but it does have that perverse ironic flavor to it since it means saying things like "no, no, these conspiracy theories are spread as part of a conspiracy"!
