Hyper only brings in a single-threaded runtime, so it's not much of a runtime at all. That is to say, driving a future returned from Hyper in a blocking fashion and then dropping it is all that's required. Once you drop the client, the runtime will be dropped too. I usually take issue with runtimes due to the added complexity and the lack of clarity about resource usage - I'm mostly worried about superfluous memory usage and some rogue threads going off and doing a quest and a half doing god knows what, hogging or otherwise interfering with my application's threads. I don't think that's possible in this case. Do you know if there are any other concerns that I should be worried about when bringing in something that has a runtime?
Where do you see these claims being made by Modi? Just curious.
She railroaded our YC interview for having a similar model (albeit in a different vertical) simply because she failed, so naturally we would also fail. Aaron Harris, another failed entrepreneur turned YC partner, has routinely done the same I've heard.

We're now 2 years later pushing $2M ARR profitably and about to raise our Series A. YC not taking 7% of our company was the best thing that ever happened to us.

YCombinator is nothing like what it used to be. The majority of the partners are useless as venture partners.
I consider myself a fan of SQL, but my nitpick is more around named calculated columns. For instance:

SELECT AVG(col1) OVER (PARTITION BY col2) AS partcol1
FROM tbl
WHERE AVG(col1) OVER (PARTITION BY col2) > 10.0

I wish I could just do:

SELECT AVG(col1) OVER (PARTITION BY col2) AS partcol1
FROM tbl
WHERE partcol1 > 10.0

But I can't, because the WHERE clause is processed before the SELECT clause.

So if I have a bunch of these and want a convenient way to work with the named columns, I have to wrap them into a common table expression:

WITH cte AS (
SELECT AVG(col1) OVER (PARTITION BY col2) AS partcol1
FROM tbl
)
SELECT partcol1
FROM cte
WHERE partcol1 > 10.0

So wordy.
It depends on the frequency, not (mainly) the protocol used.

If you deploy 5G on the 2G or 3G bands, you get roughly the same coverage. The 5G speeds in these bands are limited, because the bands are limited.

It sounds like the argument is that high skill jobs are the reason for the increased efficiency, so they get to keep the surplus value generated?
And it is. If Amazon kicks me off I'll be shopping at Walmart tomorrow.

Also, note that a big part of this is also that the ToS was not bilaterally negotiated. They, as a near-monopoly, presented a ToS that they were not willing to negotiate with, and required agreeing to it to provide service.

In much of the contract world, both parties negotiate terms before signing -- for example, investor term sheets, contractor work, business partnerships. In situations like that where I have a voice, and have a fair share of negotiating space with an agreement before signing, I am normally very respectful of what I agreed to, but if I was not offered that opportunity, to hell with it, I will go by my idea of what I think is right, and they can kick me off if they want to and lose their $10K/year in revenue. Most of the time, they'd probably rather take the $10K than pick a fight over ad blockers.
Not surprised. I submitted a report and POC of an oauth2 vulnerability that they deemed as a low priority. Robinhood users are highly susceptible to phishing attacks. Even 2FA is vulnerable if the attacker is fast enough.

> The biggest reason is that there has been almost no productivity gain for cleaning a hotel in the last 20-30 years. It takes same amount of time and effort. So why would the wages go up if productivity is not up?

Wages are a function of supply and demand. If the people cleaning hotels had better options, their wages would go up (or hotels would shut down, or ask people to clean their own room before they leave, etc.)

I once got a verbal C&D from a Novell web dev because they answered to any domain and I pointed (as a joke) a domain to their IP. Google ended up indexing, and customers were asking what 'reallystrangedomain.com' was when they searched for Novell error messages.

They asked me to stop 'mirroring' their content, and didn't understand I was just pointing my domain to their servers. I stopped, but part of me didn't want to.

People being less adapted to specific environments is not the same thing as being less diverse.
Intentionally broadcasting a lack of knowledge of someone's oeuvre and using that total pig-head ignorance as some kind badge of honour is grade-A philistinism.

> At what point is it no longer my burden to explore something more until I am no longer a philistine in your opinion

Well, since you ask, I have to suggest just try talking about something you actually know anything about, or are interested in, rather than wasting everyone's time spruiking your incompetence and taking a shit on everyone else's interests.

What you do with this feedback remains up to you.
> If women on average prefer to work less hours

But do they prefer it more than men? Maybe we should be more careful about this assumption.

I am a man, and I would prefer to work less hours. Unfortunately, my options are mostly limited to full-time or nothing.

Here is how it works: suppose that both me and my wife are at a job interview, and we both say that we want a part-time job. The obvious question is "why?"

If either of us answers honestly: "because I have life and hobbies and friends, and half of the market salary for my skill range is enough to pay my bills, so I see no reason to spend most of my awake time in an office", with such attitude we are obviously not going to get the job. You are supposed to pretend that working to make someone else even richer is the highest calling in your life, more important than your family or friends or dreams or whatever, not just something you have to do to pay your bills.

Luckily, my wife has a socially acceptable excuse. I don't. Therefore, she will get the part-time job, and I will get the choice to either work full-time or try my luck elsewhere. This is not about our preferences. This is about what is socially acceptable for each of us.

In the past I tried repeatedly to get a part-time job, but it was nearly impossible. (The best deal I got was working 4 days a week for 50% of my market salary. Even that was a rare exception.) When I respond to job offers mentioning "both full-time and part-time positions available" and I mention I am interested in the part-time one, I am usually told that those are only meant for women.

So I keep working full-time, because that's the only option I got. And now people will use my "revealed preference" as a proof that this is what I really wanted. Eh.
Yes, for sure. Lyft’s post about Amundsen is linked to from our post as well. Many large companies have built custom solutions for this challenge.
>What makes you feel that Software developer salary is linked to computing power? In fact, even if we were to consider it a fair comparison, computing power, if measured by Moore's law has doubled every 2 years. Software Engineer salaries have lagged far far behind.

Honestly, I don't think there is any relation between developer salary and computational power. I was just reaching for a possible explanation for this[1] that fits with the theory that people are paid based on their productivity. It is my belief that people are paid based off the supply and demand for their labor. Productivity only serves as a ceiling for compensation and even then, that is only in the long term. Plenty of people are paid more than their production either over the short term or when productivity is difficult to measure. An employer's natural inclination is to pay people as far below their level of production as possible while still filling the job.

It is my belief that the reason that low skill wages have stagnated is not because their efficiency has stagnated. It is because their supply is outpacing their demand. The supply of software developers is not keeping up with demand so their wages are increasing. Neither has anything to do with productivity in my opinion.

Another thing worth noting:

When you show up at a land border, you technically exit the US. Likewise, when CBSA turns you back, you'd be re-entering the US and going through US CBP. So for purposes of updating a US visas, the current ban is not relevant if you present at a land border.

> they should only know that a certain device with a certain ID likes X,Y topics

They shouldn't know any ID, not even one that gets sent only to that one advertiser and is reset after 30 days.[0] Even that much data shouldn't be stored, because it's not needed unless you want to do shady tracking-related stuff (e.g. run statistics that determine who gets a special offer with a lower price).

The way it's ‘done properly’ right now is that advertisers can subscribe to a segment of consumers who recently looked at X-type products from stores A, B, or C, in region Y. Then they make bids on how much an ad impression is worth to them when a match shows up. Kind of like auto-bidding on eBay, except more meta. The problem with this is that there still needs to be some ad platform that tracks user IDs. The better ones have a reputation to uphold, so they'll make some effort to protect consumers … from finding out what's really being tracked and when there was a leak.

I like the idea of giving smaller players a chance, but:

You don't need any tracking for targeted ads.

A lot of the most relevant ads I see are on Youtube, where I have personalisation turned off. Composer explains music theory? Music store. Chef explains recipe? Cooking classes from lecture video site. Formula 1? Expensive car brand. And energy drinks. E-sports? Gaming peripherals. And different energy drinks. Half the time, no meaningful match could be made and I get something generic. Neighbouring Swamponia is beautiful in toad season. These douche-bros will give me totally legit financial advice for free. The insurance I already use has a great product for people twice my age. Founder of local thimble manufactory rambles incoherently for five minutes.

In aggregate, that's way more relevant to me than ”you recently bought that power bank you needed, so here's another power bank”. I skipped 9/10 ads after 5 seconds, but now I know which brand makes a 6-string bass that's affordable for a guitarist who'd just like to give it a go for a bit. And I did see offerings from smaller players. So I also learned that the local neo-nazi party is pretty good at folk dancing. Homeland, sweet auto-tuned homeland.

I don't blindly assume that Google aren't tracking anything I don't want them to store. But they show me a lot of targeted ads and there's never any indication that they know what I did last summer.

[0] Oh, and obviously even that kind of ID shouldn't identify an entire device. When your offspring borrows your tablet to play Candycraft, do you want them to see ads meant for you? Do they want to see those ads?
Legacy media is in the same boat, and has been for a long time, as you pointed out.

When it comes to social media I think it is sprawling. Even a topic as pedestrian as lawn care is completely overrun by inorganic material.
So for sites where you have agreed to the ToS you agree that it’s fine for them to have that expectation? (e.g. Reddit, Facebook, etc)

It's valid to perform research on Earth by taking satellite photos and examining them for land cover use. It's valid to use a laser range finder to map the land elevation of the entire planet. Among the various governments which have done this, Airbus has as well. Presumably to ensure nobody flies a plane into a mountain.

If it's valid to shine a laser pulse from space/the sky onto the entire surface of the Earth (private property included) to determine the elevation of everything, it's valid to send TCP SYNs out to the entire surface of the internet.

Assuming you cherry-picked the lowest wage and this article cheery-picked the highest when compared to productivity gains,
a naive split right down the center would yield a wage of $14.11/hr — or almost double federal minimum wage today.

I throw this number out there not for it to be taken seriously on its own purely because it’s “in the middle”, but to hopefully put into perspective how large this gap is, again naively assuming the “correct” number is somewhere between the two extremes.

I personally find it harder to imagine that the “correct” minimum wage is closer to $4.22 than it is to $14.11 or even $24, but that’s just me.
The article itself is a too-long opinion piece.

The problems facing the US are mostly related to -isms - Marxism and Academic (Radical) Feminism.

The city riots are organized by CCP-funded marxist groups.

Academic (Radical) Feminism has copied Marxism as a blueprint for labelling themselves victims and usurping power from men. The casualty is the nuclear family, which is the basis for Western, or any, culture. (Black leaders have recently said that white families are on the same trajectory towards destruction, with up to 70% of black families headed by a single parent.)

Ironically, women have a biological clock that men don't, making most of their "freedoms" hollow when they end up childless and alone at 40. Tinder and other dating apps are resulting in 2 "lost decades" for them, when they really need to start a family before 25 or so.

What American leftists admire about Sweden is what Swedens say is leading to a bankrupt state with (already) no freedom of speech. See the Youtube Rubin Report channel on Sweden topics.
Now that's interesting. There's a delay between when a curriculum stream is adopted and when its students start participating in civic affairs. My understanding (unconfirmed) is that participation in Twitter and Facebook is dominated by older age groups who may not have learned that material.

How long since this curriculum was adopted state-wide in California? And what's it officially called? I couldn't find any information about it when I searched for "skeptical analysis" on the California Dept of Education website.

That’s like Apple selling their watches in a Target store and on their box advertise lower priced wrist bands on apple.com on the box. No way would Target tolerate that.
No matter what Apple does, people will say they're right to do so. The biggest fuck you that app devs can show to Apple is to develop exclusively for Android. Then add a notice on their page WHY they won't develop an iOS app. Maybe even a hip hashtag like #AppleMafia

I am also a huge fan of Schwab and would recommend them to anyone that is looking for a brokerage (and checking account with no ATM fees). For such an old (and one would think, stuck in their old ways) institution, they keep up quite well technologically and consumer relations wise. Their website and apps are updated thoughtfully and regularly. The very few times I have had to deal with customer service, it couldn't have gotten smoother or quicker. One time, it was my fault (infringed SEC trade settlement rules and got put on probation required by law) and a knowledgeable man called to very politely explain what had happened and to clear up any confusion going forward. You're not going to get that from Robinhood.
That's not exactly true. The public has the right to have all laws applied fairly. The social media platforms have enjoyed the rights of a neutral forum without the liabilities that come with being a publisher. Yet the platforms act like a publisher, deciding what is seen or not seen, and the public directly or indirectly suffers as a result. This is a pretty clear case of actual rights being violated, despite the distracting narrative of "muh private company".

The tech companies have a clear liberal bias, despite what the media wants you to believe. Tech savvy people tend to be more liberal, and tend to spend more time on social media, so you have a bubble of opinions that drown out the other noise (which already gets downvoted to the bottom, shadowbanned, or censored anyway), resulting in the faux appearance of a consensus that there isn't a real problem here. Anyone with enough influence to have this opinion really noticed in the mainstream media, will be discounted as a "conspiracy theorist".
Not 100% ;)

Renewables are cheap when they make up a small percentage of total power generation. Solar is cheap when it's only providing supplemental power during the day, same with wind. Using them as a primary source of energy requires staggering amounts of storage, and proposals to fulfill these demands exist either on paper or in the form of prototypes 4-5 orders of magnitude smaller than what is required.

I've repeatedly [1] [2] addressed the shortcomings of your assumption that hydrogen will deliver low cost storage, in particular electrolysis and compression remains only ~30-40% efficient, underground storage is not widespread, and existing infrastructure to transport and storage methane cannot be used for hydrogen.

At this point, claiming renewables + storage is a solution to decarbonizing the economy is analogous to saying fusion is a solution. Yes, it's possible and we are familiar with the physics of how to make it work. And if it works, then yes it's a good solution. But it doesn't currently work, and it's unknown whether or not it will work in the foreseeable future. Technology that's 10-20 years away tends to stay 10-20 years a way for much loner than 10-20 years.
