> There are huge disparities in wealth and income within America, right? America's poorest state has a median income of 45K (Mississippi) and it's richest state has a median income of 80K (Maryland). Why doesn't everyone just move to Maryland? Or better yet just move to San Francisco (median 112K). Obviously there's factors other than economics keeping people in place.

That's still a relatively small difference compared to places where incomes can be $100/year or much less. I definitely think there's room for more experimentation in this area, but it's probably not as simple as "just open the borders".
from what evidence? he said she said? because the data is showing no such thing. if you rather trust data than rhetoric.
How did you do this without scaring the hiring manager? Assuming the hiring manager has to vouch for you to their bosses to get the negotiated terms, you must have a very sought after skill set?

Or is this purely negotiating with HR and/or legal for contract terms concessions without hiring manager as it doesn't come from their budget?
I've developed a great social media system that's basically a centralized system, although I added Fediverse capability to it recently. It's here: https://quanta.wiki.

I'm looking for a way to leverage Quanta's power on top of some kind of true peer-to-peer architecture to make it censorship resistant, because BigTech has just now gone nuclear in their censorship efforts.

So I'm currently trying to find the right peer-to-peer (won't be ActivityPub) infrastructure, to let Quanta instances network better.

> If there were reliable, science-based information about how to care for the pan best, it would have saved me a lot of trouble

I think the trouble here is that the people who best understand cast iron are probably also the least likely to care about the science of it.

The main reason not to leave too much oil in the pan is that it will go rancid and get sticky and generally gross. That's not something you run up against if you use the pan several times a week, but if you have something like a dutch oven that you use maybe once or twice a month, you will come back to a mess that you have to deal with before you can cook in it.

The whole "you're making a polymer coating that mimics a teflon pan" idea is something that sounds fancy, but is impractical and unnecessary in practice.

I LOVE my 13" 2015 MBP and only stopped using it because of keyboard errors. With that said, I believe the new Macbook Air and Macbook Pro have the Magic Keyboard which I think is essentially the same as the 2015 Macbook Pro keyboard and more up-to-date (though maybe not upgradeable).

I recently bought a Zephyrus G14 which I think is one of the closer equivalents to a 13" MBP for Windows with a powerful GPU.

In retrospect I think it's pretty obvious the actual point of the space shuttle was national prestige. Studies done at the time pointed out it would take something like 60 launches a year for a reusable system to beat the cost of expendable rockets with available (1970s) technology, and yet the project was pursued regardless. Because the real, actual, honest reason we went with the STS was simply - the shuttle was a space ship, like in sci-fi, and was therefore cool and therefore a public darling. Even if it made no financial sense, people still loved it.

It's similar to the USS Missouri and USS Wisconsin serving in the Gulf War. Made absolutely no sense whatsoever, and was a total waste of money and time. But battle wagons are cool, and therefore people bent over backwards trying to justify it. They even invented "armored" pods for the tomahawks going on the Iowas:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armored_Box_Launcher

To try and pretend there was some kind of operational point to using thickly armored battleships instead of something more modern.

Rule of cool is strangely powerful in real life in turns out.
Black people account for about 12% of the U.S. population, but occupy only 3.2% of the senior leadership roles at large companies in the U.S. and just 0.8% of all Fortune 500 CEO positions

A close examination of wealth in the U.S. finds evidence of staggering racial disparities. At $171,000, the net worth of a typical white family is nearly ten times greater than that of a Black family ($17,150) in 2016.

There are still laws on the books that were written expressly to exclude Blacks.

If hiring practices have changed at big companies in recent years, it doesn't mean Blacks have achieved equality yet by any stretch of the imagination.
Real estate seems to absorb inflation but generally it doesn’t have good ROI.

Starting a company where you can change prices is a better inflation hedge, IMO.

Anything where the deal requires lock-in at a fixed denomination for an extended period of time is exposed to inflation risk.
Ask HN: Toxic manager/work environment – need advice
Currently I am working for one of the biggest software companies in the world. I
joined the company ~3.5 years ago. Since joining the company I have been
promoted twice. My performance reviews are always very very good. I am liked by
the vast majority of my colleagues. They respect me because I know my stuff but
also because I am down to earth, relaxed and always helpful. We have a pretty
open feedback culture among colleagues.

This all sounds good and all but since I joined the company my satisfaction with
work went downhill. My main concern is the toxic new management I got about a
year ago. She is constantly gaslighting me + others. I have tried to talk to her. I tried to make things better - even give
her tipps about what kind of actions could make my colleagues and me more
happy.

My manager is only one problem though. I think the whole company has
issues. The company behaves irradic. Changes direction every 6 months -
which is kind of okay for a startup/small company but not for a big company. Right?
Sometimes projects are cancelled because of minor things (beta release 1w late).

I have worked on multiple projects - all but 1 got cancelled.

I like the “every yes needs 1000 now” approach - it really weeds out the
bad stuff - but here nobody understands the reason behind the "no".
understands.

I really tried to change things here. I talked to many people. Talked openly.
You might ask: Why not just leave?
The truth is that I am half burned out. The last project I worked on got
everything from me. I wanted to impress my manager in the
hopes for more openness. More reasonable discussions. It just went downhill.
On the one hand I know that I can be gold for a company. But at the moment I am
unable to really do something. Easy tasks are no longer easy for me. I don’t
have the self-confidence to just walk away. I need some advice. I feel that I
could do much more but my current circumstances limit everything.
What would you do?

Just a guess on my part, but he may have meant "unix" and is using "Linux" incorrectly. Mac OS is a unix system. Linux has become so common that I have heard many people say Linux when they mean the more general term unix. Let's assume the best instead of the worst.

idk if you are at all familiar with arm computers but they have been out for a while, mainly running things like ChromeOS or for microsoft EdgeOS or "Windows 10 S"

the strategy revolves around using web performance on arm to overshadown the general lack of optimized arm apps. as apples release of the M1 has shown, no apps are really optimized yet even 1 month after launch for an APPLE product...

thats where the SafariOS explanations makes more sense, they essentially just have safari, and a similar but equally broken app store ported from the iPad but with most devs chosing to opt out of supporting safariOS... weird how they mocked google and then pulled a google
I think an argument like this is consistent with free (i.e. few rules) markets. Isn't it the same argument as saying businesses should be allowed to refuse customers based on, say, sexual orientation? People may not agree with that and would want government to require businesses to serve some customers and, in this case, not others. However, I tend to think business and customer relationships should be voluntary as much as possible.

Seasoning seems to be the “all-natural” alternative for non-stick pans. However, have there been any studies on the substances typically produced and if they are dangerous long term?

It seems like taking and bunch of long chain fats, heating them up to high temperatures in cycles and then cooking all sorts of foods in that has a chance of producing carcinogenic molecules.

For the synthetic non-stick pans we have studies of their biological effects. I don’t think we have any studies for the patina that results from seasoning.

I had a similar quiz. I never really liked them because it always bothered me why I was expected to follow the last instruction first, regardless of what it said. Even if it said to ignore the previous instructions, I would only be following it once I reached it, which would mean all other instructions had been followed. Nothing in the initial rules that said to read all instructions gave any indication that one should pick and choose which instructions to follow or that you should do them in reverse order.

Perhaps this was the moment when I first started the path to being a programmer.
I never spoke of whether Nietzsche's claims were true or false.

There was a thread posted on the rust forum a while back that laid out the goals of this project [0]:

> A friend of mine (Luke) has been talking about the need for a Rust frontend for GCC to allow Rust to replace C in more places, such as system software. To allow some types of safety-critical software to be written in Rust, the GCC frontend would need to be an independent implementation of Rust, since the relevant specs require multiple independent implementations (so just attaching GCC as a new backend for rustc wouldn't work).

Luke:

> The goal is for the GNU Compiler Collection to have a peer level front end to the gfortran frontend, gcc frontend, g++ frontend and all other frontends.

> The goal is definitely not to have a compiler written in rust that compiles rust code [edit: unless there is an acceptable bootstrap process, and the final compiler produces GNU assembly output that compiles with GNU gas]

> The goal is definitely not to have a hard critical dependence on LLVM.

> The goal is to have code added, written in c, to the GNU Compiler Collection, which may be found here https://gcc.gnu.org 20 such that developers who are used to gcc may compile rust programs and link them against object files using binutils ld.

> The primary reason why I raised this topic is because of an experiment permitting rust modules to be added to the linux kernel: https://lwn.net/Articles/797828

> What that effectively means if that takes off is that the GNU Compiler Collection, which would be incapable of compiling that code, would be relegated to a second class citizen for the purposes of compiling the largest software project on the planet: the linux kernel.

> Thus it is absolutely critical that GCC be capable not just of having rust capability but of having up to date rust capability.

Been using MacBooks since 2014 for hobby development/work

I bought a new macbook pro m1 in December. Returned 2 days later after realizing that it only supports one external monitor and even found articles stating that ultra wide monitors were not supported on initial release. "Just use display link adaptor?" No thanks I don't want a 150$ adaptor that may or may not work with my current setup. Even with display link I've heard of displays flickering on initial startup or not starting at all in clamshell.

People saying the MacBook pro 16" might solve the issue but tbh I think this is apples way of pigeonholing users to either their desktop version or their laptop.
The biggest difference I've found (moreso on stainless steel than cast iron) is food weight: which is to say, time food is left without moving.

Which makes sense. Essentially burnt-to-pan bits are food-pan interface, as opposed to food-oil-pan interface.

Give enough time, heavy food displaces oil and comes in direct contact with pan. Given enough movement, oil is able to reimpose itself between the two.

Tbh I don't find tos very hard to understand. They are akin to programming for the law. And generally speaking they just tell you what you should already know about the terms under which you use the service, so that you can't sue the service for absurd things.

For the sake of demonstration, I just went and read the first seven sections of Personal Capital's TOU. Not a single surprise in there, so far. To give one example, section 5 just says that for the sake of displaying the information you are agreeing that personal capital can retrieve on your behalf, personal capital has your authorization to act legally on your behalf. This is to prevent some idiot from suing them for fetching account info that said idiot inputted into personal capital. Another section says, hey, we aren't responsible for mistakes you make with your investments, even if you base your decisions on the information we show to you. Which is a perfectly reasonable thing as well -- you literally could not run a service like this otherwise.

Does IRC have "conversation threads?" To me a conversation thread necessarily entails a hierarchical chain of posts and the replies to those posts as "child nodes". All conversations are inherently "tree structures" if done right, imo.

It would really be ideal if some of these sex workers could get their own platform. Pornhub seems like it was frankly unresponsive on a lot of serious concerns until they were forced to deal with them by the panic articles that went around last month

And frankly it seems to me like it's still trivial to go on there and find what seems to me to be a lot of content that has dubious consent or related issues.

These performers would be better off with a platform that was highly moderated, something Pornhub and the sites similar to it don't seem to be able to (or want to) properly do.
@striker_axel - have you ever stepped inside a restaurant or a hotel? They say - "Rights of admission are reserved". It's decided by them, not by a court. Samething with these apps.
Not quite the same what OP asked for. This will create the key and assign value 0 to it.
I agree with the article that we are in a bubble, but what it doesn't talk about is about inflation and also that the dollar could be rapidly declining in value, which will cause the price of things to rise. I have witnessed and experienced in my lifetime in under a decade country that had a currency value of 1:1 with USD have their currency lose value and end up at a ratio of 100:1USD. Meaning price of everything goes up 100x. If dollar is falling compared to yuan and say EU, let's even say it only falls 5x. That means price of milk can go up to $10, $100k houses can go up to $500k, and $100 stocks $500. Of course the price in commodities are often slower than stocks, but as the stocks go up and "everyone" get's reach and some gains are coming out, those gains turn into actually cash that also drive up price of commodities. So as the market melts up, if you stay out, you are going to get very poor. You want to melt up with it, in the future tho, all that money will be worth very less or near the same of what it was worth. Frankly it's a big casino, and all one can do is hedge. I see folks beating the article up, but the title captures the environment. "The hazard of asset allocation in a late-state major bubble". You can do the right thing and completely lose. I suppose one key thing he's pointing out is that you don't want to get wiped out, have enough to get back in the game.
