> I worry that MBAs of other companies will take the lessons learned from Silicon Valley WFH and misapply them.

Don't worry: It won't be the last time it happens. How many shops have I heard say they are "Just like Google" only to find out that what they mean by that is that they have beanbag chairs?

> But it's potentially a lot cheaper up front not to have offices, just like open plan offices were cheaper, so I fear MBAs may discount these drawbacks and make WFH the default in many, many places where it's a bad idea.

They'll learn that they need a higher caliber of employees to make it work. Incidentally, these employees are also now hirable by competing SV firms that can and will outbid them.
The stock market would crash guaranteed if Apple had no inventory of phones. AMD no gpus or cpus, etc. It wouldn't just be like oh sorry out of stock. It would touch every aspect of your life.
Keep in mind, a semiconductor fab has hundreds of other machines and equipment involved, and US companies are some of the biggest suppliers (Applied Materials, Lam Research, KLA-Tencor--all multi-billion dollar companies).

Lithography is definitely key, but all the equipment and process must work together.
Auto manufacturers can't just put in a general purpose CPU. Embedded CPUs have functionality general purpose CPUs don't have. Not to mention it would take months to design new hardware and write new software.

The chips being put into cars today were selected at least 5 years ago.
>As a business owner, I am not sure you would hire on the same axis

If you are hiring salaried individuals on the basis on how many hours they put in a week, then you might be focusing on the wrong metrics. There were plenty of people in tech doing 20 hours of work a week, and spending the remaining 20 hours on hacker news.

I bemoan WFH, but not because of work output.
And this post has been flagged too, presumably by some group that is sharing the link internally, targeting the spread of this information as if it was a threat to them.

There has to be some sociological phenomenon that explains these kinds of events, and the strange group-think hivemind warfare type behavior that is now commonplace on all social media, across the entire political spectrum.

Does anyone have reading recommendations? This kind of thing fascinates me.
In this specific case, I think it's more about if you can do it rather than if it makes sense. It's a fun challenge, and if you can spare the cash, it does inform the community a bit more about how modern Nvidia cards react to this kind of mod.

A big fraction of Hackaday's content is this kind of fun modding that might not make immediate economic sense.
> To keep this in context, the current Hong Kong SAR government is democratically elected[6] according to the provisions of an international treaty signed by the PRC and the UK which took effect in 1997

No, this's misinformation. The HK government isn't democratically elected. The CEO of the HK government is selected by a committee appointed by the CCP. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Election_Committee_(Hong_Kong)

Quote: The Election Committee is a Hong Kong electoral college, the function of which is to select the Chief Executive (CE).

It's a much smaller scale problem than the pesticide issue.

Here in Northern California, we're actually unable to use poisons on pest rodents like squirrels and rats since they often enter the ecosystem through raptors ingesting them.

My friends with a lot of land were advised to get pellet guns and air rifles to deal with their squirrel problems. It's considered the lowest impact to the ecosystem and food chain.

This is so frustrating! They never stop! I don't care for any of the new features, I just want things to continue working!
I never advocate for DNSSEC. Around 2008 when cache poisoning and consequently DNSSEC gained renewed attention, I stopped using shared caches. I think the costs of DNSSEC outweigh the benefits.

Is that a law?

In all of America there are actual laws against littering, noise and pollution and wherever I move I expect them to be enforced.

Also I wonder if these lawbreakers were respectful of the culture that existed prior to them arriving? I doubt it and with that I will conclude that they probably don't deserve the same respect. It's a free country you know? If they don't like it they can move somewhere else (and probably disrupt wherever they move to).

I've been on the receiving end of car heads moving into my neighborhood. I ended up having to move out. What goes around, comes around I guess.
To be clear - I'm not talking any actions (yes, that would be absurd), just pointing out that it is not obvious which outcomes we should root for.

> Which is a stark contrast with how open layout offices I worked in worked (you were expected to keep noise down to tolerable levels but if you didn't want to be disturbed by noise you had headphones).

People who thought they could talk as loud as they want / hold an impromptu meeting by your desk and thought it was your problem to sort out if you didn’t like it are a lot of the reason why I hated open plan offices so much.
Good PR, trans activist etc.
Funny thing is I never see them (or any other raptors) thermaling over pavement, not even factoring in a thermal getting skewed by wind.
I wonder if Intel is also going to increase compensation across the board to be able to execute on this bold plan. Historically, Intel's salaries were among the lowest and it has been losing talent left and right to its chip-making competitors (Apple, Nvidia, etc).
> On the other hand, Stallman has called for the killing of babies with Down Syndrome.

He did not say that. You make it sound like he's suggesting babies actually born should be killed. No. He's supporting the current practice of testing the fetus during pregnancy, and aborting if it has down syndrome.

Warning to others, this is what happens when you get caught up in cancel-culture wokeness, repeating allegations of others without verification. You end up repeating falsehoods as justfication, take things out of context, and confirm to onlookers you don't have the ability to form your own opinions through rational, logical thought.
So many people, the majority even, have spent an extended period pleading with authorities on this issue with no media attention and now merely several residents of one apartment building make the same pleas. These don't seem equally likely. Or should we be interpreting your view through the lens of the "silent majority" euphemism?
I'm half-joking. I use some of these utilities myself occasionally, and even more of them have ended up in my Emacs toolchain simply because they're faster.

On the other hand, there's value in all of these ancient, ubiquitous and battle-tested utilities. You're doing yourself a disservice not learning find and grep.

And I do poke fun at the "rewrite it in rust" crowd even though I think Rust itself is incredibly exciting. There's nothing as easy as reinventing existing tools in a greenfield code base. Inventing truly new things and maintaining old code are both much harder and much more valuable. Not saying that the existing tools don't need an update every now and then, but I'm not particularly impressed, despite these things being flashy.
Last I checked, Minnesota had the largest population in the lower 48. I personally see them all the time.
I'm curious to know whether you are working with therapists on this effort?

FYI, until I read this comment I had no idea what the app would do, and even now I'm not too clear on what I would get out of the evaluation session.

Good luck, we need more mental health tools out there.
I realize this is satire, but I’m concerned about the other open letter that this is referring to. How is it not supporting cancel culture? According to it, any transgression, no matter how small, that goes against identity politics is seen as an immediate and everlasting scarlet letter. For heaven sake’s, I don’t even know this guy, and I have very little knowledge of the FSF, but clearly this kind of pitch forking is very dangerous and very counterproductive.
Absolutely, I was already thinking Wilhelm Scream as I finally arrived at those words in your comment!

I had a colleague with a theory that a lot of pedophiles are really in love with the power aspect. There is no bigger power than that what an adult can have over a child. Both physically and mentally.

And therefore, they will try to get those positions where they are in power. I don't know if this was ever investivated, but it makes sense to me.

Edit: when you look at the dad in this story, raping and torturing a child seems more like the power aspect than the sexual one.
Is there any way to use this without having to pull the logo image? Potentially just the name of the company?
No one is suggesting advertisers tracking you is bad because people "can't control themselves." People don't like being tracked because, over time, private information can be inferred from your viewing history. Things like your age, gender, relationship status, income, ethnicity, education, hobbies, health concerns, diet, voting preferences, family names, etc. can all be known about you with high certainty simply by having trackers on the sites you visit. Ironically, this is exactly the kind of data you understand being concerned about before making several bad faith assumptions about why people don't want to be tracked.
I can certainly understand your perspective, and there are still a lot of appealing things about the Bay Area. Yet all the perks you mentioned about living in SF are the norm in many places. Crime and homelessness and feces aren't something that one must tolerate in order to have them.
So what if you were anti pornography? One of the many many many problems with pornography is that it often crosses the line into violence, promoting illegal sexual fantasies, actual human trafficking and crimes, etc. Etc.

This has not been my experience. Getting the work done fast is prioritized more highly than the (small) compliance risk. Unless the company wants to pay you to invent a bespoke in-house version of React.

Data point. My GF worked on a online multiplayer game targeted at tweens and teens. Everyone hired had to undergo a background check.
TSMC is also a bit more geographically diverse than a lot of people assume. Their largest fabs are split between three different cities in Taiwan, so a fire isn't going to knock them all offline. And their smaller or less-advanced fabs include several more locations. So it's not quite like the semiconductor industry has put all their eggs in one basket, even for leading-edge logic nodes.

I happen to agree with the opinion expressed in the editorialization, but that's not where those opinions belong; the headline should be retained and the opinion expressed in a comment.

Appreciate the reply and everyone has their own circumstances. But it doesn't sound like you've actually considered it or know anything about it which I guess is the basic answer to my question.

>Because the router I own is better than the router I don't own.

That's obviously not necessarily true. By this logic all upgrades for all time are pointless. Why get a better CPU/GPU/SSD? "The CPU/GPU/SSD I own is better than the CPU/GPU/SSD I don't own" after all. Except it's not, hence the interest in upgrading.

>Further, everything you describe is a bunch of complexity I don't need in my life.

Your setup sounds much, much more complicated actually.

>My time is too valuable to spend fiddling with configurations every time some piece of kit does a software update.

This isn't actually a thing. If anything, a core reason for using VLANs is precisely being able to just have any system at all and plug it in/join network and have it all be isolated and routing the right place with zero configuration.

>The way I do it, I plug a wireless router into one ISP, and a different wireless router into another ISP, and I'm done with it. Simple and clean.

Sounds complex and PITA, not least because it requires multiple ISPs and associated infrastructure, billing, tech support if needed, dealing with any security issues in their bottom barrel AIOs, etc. It's not free either, dual ISPs at least around here could easily add $400-1200/year. That's real money, even at the low end it's more money than a basic quality switch+router would cost.
The difference is in tooling. Docstrings are collected and displayed in many contexts. The intended purpose is writing “documentation” in the same place as code. Comments are only seen if you open the source file.
Perl is far less exotic than COBOL when compared to modern languages that are still in heavy use. It looks kinda like C or PHP and feels kinda like Python or Ruby. I've never written COBOL but it looks almost as foreign to me as a punchcard.
Sure, but you either continue expanding, never reaching profitability until you're so large you'll have to use creative monetization efforts (as Discord did), or you'll have to stop growth at some point (like IRCCloud did).

I've talked with a few of your devs at the chaos congress in leipzig, and as Quasseldroid dev and contributor to IRCv3 I know the issues too well.

The constant new features, more performance, more storage, etc as Discord offers them is just not possible in a sustainable way. Especially group video calls in massive communities of non-paying users (which is common on Discord) is just almost impossible to do in a profitable way.

That said, you've had the most success in open communication so far, and I sincerely wish you good luck with it in the future :)
As long as facebook is held liable for their moderation—it appears to be dogshit at the moment at actually distinguishing good content from bad—this would be a step forward. Sadly, it seems like "a process", regardless of the quality, is sufficient for Zuckerberg.

Of course, moderating at Facebook's scale requires a tradeoff—scaling the moderation team with the size of the network is a bare minimum to retain quality. There's no algorithmic method of moderation I can't trivially fool. So, we'll probably get facebook as our de facto fact checker for the world with a shitty algorithm backing it, and the misinformation will continue....
> documentaries that criticize both the effectiveness and wisdom of our own military efforts

So the criticism is on how to carry out imperialism more effectively?
If you're in a high COL area, then the constraint is usually an extra room away from your family, not the equipment. Not always an option to buy or rent a place with another room once you start working from home. My company sure isn't paying an extra $500-1,000 per month to cover rent/mortgage.

Although, if you wanted them to do a longer project, Basecamp’s method where they pay the applicant to do the project seems like a good way to do it. And you’ll get the most complete picture of their expertise (of course, you wouldn’t want to do this until the last step of the process).

The person I would trust the least to run raw SQL at (easy to find if you care) has the most privilege to do so: The "Growth Hacker" business operations person. Probably reddit is among the few companies where the CEO is technical enough to be doing raw SQL queries themselves, but it's trivial for a CEO to generate a purpose for credentials to be stored in their remit: Business reports. The bizops people with direct ties to the CEO will do whatever they're asked.

Still, agreed - The fact that they've now shown, multiple times, to have insufficient auditing and repercussions for the administrative abuse is sobering.
The thing is, bulk of OSS development is paid by big companies. Based ok FOSS developpers survey, we can safely say that majority of OSS developers are paid for that work. And a lot of those money goes from bif companies.

Practically, these are not in free time weekend projects. Tech people are really invested in mythology of it all being done for free or mythology of everyone having side project on top of work. Neither is reality.
How do you know that's a memory issue? I'd expect that to be less of a concern in VR games and more a requirement to render the exact same duplicate resources at slightly different perspectives, which should not be memory, but pure GPU throughput.
This is a dead meme. Boring and annoying specially to the Gnome developers. I have used Gnome for many years now. Never have this been an issue. If you look at the issue tracker[1], they are open to pull requests to add the thumbnail, we just need one person who cares about this feature!

There are many other issues with Gnome that actually is their decision and it is a problem. This specific one is a GTK issue. But for example their decision on window decoration in wayland is just wrong and makes the whole environment look weird[2].

Arc looks cool, but it's only the control plane. They aren't dropping AKS into other environments. The compute is your responsibility. Anthos puts GKE in other places.

>Automakers were already struggling with chip supply

TBH, that is their own fault.

When the pandemic started a year ago, they chickened out thinking people won't have money to buy anymore cars and halted production, cancelling orders for semiconductors. Then, when the demand for cars exploded, since nobody wanted to be on a subway/bus full of people carrying a contagious virus, they wanted their chips to resume production, but the semiconductor fabs have already allocated the wafer capacity the automakers have just freed up to other industries that were booming.

The automakers basically sold both their kidneys to the pawnshop for a quick buck and are now trying to buy them back during a kidney shortage.

Right, that's part of what's exciting about it.

To develop apps for Android I have to set up an emulator, dev environment, learn a bunch of extra ropes, package everything. But I can throw together some bash scripts in a day, it really opens up the possibilities to solve a lot of my own problems.

Compare that with something like Windows Phone. Not having apps there is a serious problem, because I don't necessarily want to pull out C# and build an entire app to fix every issue I have.

It would take a bit of work, but if I could find one, it would be worth it, and we might have an extra year of life out of a more powerful GPU.
