Why do their concerns matter? I thought private businesses were free to choose to host or not host any content they want, without any regard to anything or anyone? If employees don't like it, they can quit. Presumably, Spotify put some executive in charge of doing the Rogan deal, the board approved it, and that should be that.

My escape was doubling my pay, then paying off my debt, then refusing to take on any further debt, ever. Currently closing on a house, paid with cash. Never again debt.
I had a different experience solving similar problems.

When I started working in Spain as an engineer I solved problems like that in the article, very hard, requiring people with very high technical skills. Companies creating big problems because short term mentality made the bluff to accumulate until emergency came.

There was an important distinction with the protestant-puritan mentality of the US. After doing all the hard work and saving the company I was paid in peanuts and more work, filling all my time and making my life miserable.

Emergencies bring enormous social pressure over you, you overwork and it is painful. They called you because "short term" mentality but solving the problem always takes more time that what they demand you take. It must be done for yesterday.

The big bucks were given to the people that took the bad decisions in the first place at the top. I went to Asia and the culture was even worse, albeit this time I was benefiting from that.

Then I discovered places in the world where hard work was rewarded. It is a very small part of the world. Most of the world does not work the way the Silicon Valley does, and even there socialism is coming to those places too.

So I won't recommend that you work harder unless you are rewarded from it, that is your culture rewards you for that or you have your own business and work gives you an advantage.

I would recommend the opposite, simplify your life so you need to work less, make other people(delegate) or specially machines do the hard work for you.

Do not embrace toxic relationships. Let companies in eternal emergency mode burn and die, and work for(or create) those that do the right thing.

Not sure about the container connection, but Firefox also now has 'about:performance' which is pretty much like 'top for browser tabs'. When things start getting bogged down I can now find the culprit and nuke it.

about:memory is also useful, it allows you to force garbage collection on the browser as a whole.

Probably much easier than it would be for a warehouse worker. Though I have no idea how this is relevant to what was said in the message you were replying to.

100% agreed, and to some extent people _do_ need to be protected from themselves where irrational decisions are likely. But the comment I responded to referred to payday loans in general as a scam, and anyone who's bothered to study this, qualitatively or quantitatively, firmly disagrees. Note that this doesn't preclude regulated rate caps, which are motivated by the idea that, at a given rate, the innumerate/irrational being harmed outweigh the harm done by removing an emergency liferaft from those for whom it makes sense.

You don't even have to be that smart or read high-quality sources to find this perspective! "Payday loans never provide value" is too dumb for even Vox[1]!

The reason I'm so passionate about this topic is not just garden-variety frustration at how stupid people are. "Helping" people by controlling what they can spend their food stamps on, whom they can have sex with, or how they survive and support themselves should come with a heavy, heavy burden of rigor. History is full of elites destroying the lives of others through their malicious "compassion" and refusal to actually consider that other people live different lives with different problems. The problem with things like payday loans is that the kind of IFLScience midwits that places like HN are thick with won't bother to do the most basic of research beyond clickbaity headlines, eye-popping context-free stats, amd comedy shows that pretend to be informative. It's repulsive.

Sure that's fair, just thought it was interesting to point out the progress they've been making, especially with their 50th release around the corner (6.9 is due May 1st), and M1 SoC support in pretty good shape OOTB. USB works, Wireless, Ethernet on the M1 Mini, etc. It is lacking SMP and a bunch of other stuff, but still.. ton of impressive work.

I think plenty of people have tried to cancel Eminem already. Mainly nobody tries to do it lately because he's gone soft and nobody likes his new music. It's still technical but feels like a dad trying to hang out with the cool kids.
I suspect a lot of the noticeable difference between Apple products and the normal stuff that most other companies churn out is the zealotry. Steve Jobs was notorious for being zealous about the small details. Tim Cook was notorious for his very high standards for operations, expecting even minor operations problems to be fixed very quickly and very thoroughly. Other companies do pay a little attention to detail, if you're observant you can see small details everywhere [1]. Apple is known for zealously taking it to the next level.

My point is that I think you do need to be kind of a zealot about it to be comparable to Apple. Most companies and employees aren't prepared to be zealots about it, which isn't that surprising to me because it's a lot of pressure and effort. One might admire how efficient Amazon is at retail compared to everyone else without admiring the sweatshop-style labor evidently needed to achieve it.

This ignores that health insurance is generally pretty inelastic in its demand.
I'm sure they made up for it charging data transfer x100.
They have a 'proton' redesign landing soon-ish parts of which you can enable via about:config options on dev/nightly that cleans things up a bit.
Oh, certainly, I am sure Balaji would eschew violence; he wouldn't even bring up the topic. And violence would go against the core nonaggression principle of libertarianism.

However, if his "county" is successful, it will need some ability to deter aggression, or it will need to declare fealty to one or more stronger forces.

The Internet is also pretty centralized these days. Get a few CDNs and cloud service providers on-side and you can shut things down, unless it's extremely P2P from the beginning (and even then, that's a cat and mouse game that e.g. filesharing P2P has lost).
I understand your point and your definition of GUI is much more inclusive. I however disagree with your definition and I consider it is not that commonly accepted.

I do agree with your definition of a command line interface as a stream of commands and responses.

I'm not an expert on this matter, but if a website smells like a propaganda op, I start wondering about data selection, spin and other forms of bias.

So you found some stats... great! (I can't see them, tabs don't load, I think you had a particular union in context somehow) How would I put that in context, is it possible that they're highlighting the worst things they can find, and spinning them as hard as they can, in the service of 'union facts'? Why do they have a 'crime & corruption' tab for every single union, is there a dollar figure? What went into that aggregate dollar fiture?

Where's the positive side, like 'new union contract increases pay' or whatever? It sounds like the only stats provided have a negative spin based on title alone.

I did notice that they helpfully linked to this website as well: http://aftfacts.com/ -- check out that homepage while you're at it :)
Suddenly homebrew Stingray cell tower devices seem reasonable, with only enough power to force IoT devices to sink their connections with them into a blackhole instead of your closest tower.
Yeah, I know, it's hard to make the leap. It required a total inversion for me but it all comes together in contemplation. I think there's a close equivalence to aether and bose-einstein condensate.

I think memory retention has more to do with simplicity / emotional consistency.

The new skill you learn may reinforce existing areas if its components are transferrable. Also, I see schemas as compression in the brain; eidetic memory shows how much some brains are capable of.

Forgetting is very good for clarification. I think your example suggests that your spelling in English hasn't been established deeply enough; I understand why you might have an adverse reaction to learning it though (German spelling is far more reasonable).
Also, I wonder what kinds of skills are required to figure this out? I don't think just knowing Linux kernel internals would be enough.
I think it's pretty clear that Spotify wants to host it, seeing as they paid $100 million for the right to do so. It seems some employees, whom Spotify did not entrust with the decision to host this content or not, are mad about it and are attempting a hostile takeover of their company to run it according to their own politics instead of how the owners and managers have decided to do.

I'm not saying we know this is what happened. I'm saying it's not a far-fetched position and there's a lot of experts who agree. I hear there's even an MIT Technology Review write-up about it.
The problem with notion this is that 'woke' or 'activist' values are actually pretty reflective of mainstream values in 21st century society. I would worry more about the legal exposure of people who express opposition to diversity/equity/inclusiveness, as these are very likely to be the people who would end up behaving inappropriately and getting the company mired in harassment and discrimination suits.
Does this tend to improve the company's financial performance, or is this simply worth doing if you have certain political goals for your company that outweigh financial results? i.e., is this "smart companies" as in those with good financial ideas or "smart companies" as in those who want to build a non-woke world for the next generation?

It seems like most SJW-converged companies have been doing just fine as companies, otherwise the invisible hand of the market would have put a stop to this long ago.
> The vast majority

We aren't talking about "the vast majority." I already said this. We're talking about the hundreds of people who physically stormed the Capitol with the explicit intention of overturning a democratic election. The fact that there were thousands of peaceful protesters right outside doesn't erase the hundreds of insurrectionists.

> Keep in mind, there have been numerous past protests at the Capitol in the last decade, mostly from the political left. To claim that this one is somehow worse does not seem fair. Likewise, Democrats have challenged election results numerous times - including the 2000, 2004, and 2016 presidential elections. Even right now, during this very election cycle, there is a case where Democrats are challenging election results for a House seat, with Pelosi's support

You're saying that public protests and legally challenging an election in court are the same thing as smashing your way into the Capitol building, attacking cops, beating a policeman to death, and publicly bragging about your plans to murder politicians.

Everything I just said is well-documented with multiple live videos, mostly taken by the people doing it. You can find them in just a few minutes on Google. ("Dawn Bancroft", for example.)

You're consistently talking about what you think should have happened and ignoring the facts of what actually did happen. I don't think there's any further productive discussion to be had here.
I remember being on holiday at the German coast as a kid, craving for a Brezel. I was shocked that the bakeries there didn't sell them (at least in the 90ies). To me, a bakery was basically a Brezel-selling store with some additional stuff for adults (most bakeries here have a stylized Brezel in their logo). My 2 year old daughter calls bakeries "Brezel".

But, as someone from the Stuttgart area, I would argue that a good Brezel is also hard to find in Bavaria ;)
I don't understand how this works, so forgive my ignorance.

"Most successful companies, especially startups, have found tailwinds to harness that help pull them forward."

Allow me to entirely miss the point of this article by saying that is a really very confused metaphor. Tailwinds don't pull anything, and you can't put them in a harness. I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to be picturing. I know, this is irrelevant to their point.
Free at the point of service is a great solution considering being hospitalized is exactly when you can't afford to pay for things.
Being unemployed may make some turn to crime to support themselves.

Crime often puts people in stressful situations.

People in stressful situations sometimes act violently, even if that's not their default mode of conduct.

As a simple example, imagine someone shoplifting some food from a market, where an employee confronts them and bars their way, saying they are calling the police. The shoplifter tries to leave, and a scuffles ensues while the employee tries to restrain the accused. It's very easy for the crime to become assault while someone is fleeing, and nobody needed to intend for any violence at any point.

Arc lamps are good for search lights, but they suck enormous amounts of power, will burn your eyes if you glance at them, and are totally unsuitable for residential lighting. Just imagine someone lighting up your living room with an arc welder - it's the same thing. You'd go blind.

Your argument seriously underestimates the utility of Edison's high voltage, low current design. It persisted with little change up until just recently when LEDs finally displaced them. It's a pretty amazing run.

de la Rue's design failed because it relied on a platinum filament - not practical. It also relied on low voltage and high current - a dead end.
I do not believe you are engaging in good faith, given that I just explained to you very clearly and concisely that this is not just about me.
How many of them had a major incident between September-December 2019?
You admit yourself this was manipulation.

"The risk was that people would continue to meet and mix while sort of wearing a mask..."

Their job isn't to play 3-dimensional chess with human behavior. It's to communicate public health messages in a way that is both effective and accurate. I agree that the science was (and is) not very clear regarding mask usage. But if the messaging from the beginning had been "everyone wear a cloth mask inside, it might help" we maybe could have skipped this entire insane anti-mask movement.
I imagine a sail.

That is as true for the union workers as for their employers, who were not harmed at all by the situation, in fact might have even benefitted.

Can I ask how you're injecting dynamic content in served html files? My understanding was that lambda@edge functions could not modify the origin response body.

> When you’re working with the HTTP response, Lambda@Edge does not expose the body that is returned by the origin server to the origin-response trigger. You can generate a static content body by setting it to the desired value, or remove the body inside the function by setting the value to be empty. If you don’t update the body field in your function, the original body returned by the origin server is returned back to viewer.

I'm just pointing out that while it's great that they get pretty decent health insurance, it's a poor substitute for a societal safety net. And for a union that makes sure they're not chewed up and spit out.

I don't listen to Rogan. I can't speak to the specifics of what he says on his podcast. I know that he has had on multiple recurring guests that have been deplatformed elsewhere such as Alex Jones and Milo Yiannopoulos. Rogan also can't seem to go more than a few months without receiving accusations of transphobia[1]. You are also welcome to click through the link in my previous comment and see the issue discussed in depth including my thoughts on it. "Promotes hate" is an impossible to define phrase, but many people feel he is guilty of it.

One reason everyone thinks it's bad is journalists are 1. naturally neurotic people 2. all have student debt 3. all live in expensive cities like NYC and 4. their industry has fewer people earning less than they did 10 years ago. Similar for some other activist classes, though not all.
Oral History of the Intel 386 Microprocessor Design and Development [2008][pdf]
Nope, that would be a disaster. While the intent here is good it will lead to the very unfortunate side effects like incentivizing organ trade where a person would be killed under some pretext ( or even without a pretext) just to harvest his organs. I believe this already happens in some parts of the world.
> Essentially, what it means is that if an employee spends less than $1.5k/yr on medical expenses, they don't gain much benefit.

Nitpicking here, but they probably do, because the insurance-negotiated prices for many services are much better than the prices prices you could negotiate yourself -- and that is assuming you even have the skills and energy to do any negotiating.

I have a high-deductible plan, which on paper covers literally nothing until I hit something over $7k/yr in expenses, which I thankfully never have. However, I usually pay 30-60% less than the uninsured cash price for my appointments and procedures just because I'm on the plan in the first place.

I often (not always) check this with the provider, so it's not like I'm just blindly assuming the discount claimed by the insurance company is accurate. It's usually not, but the discount still seems to be substantial.

In exactly one case I ended up saving like 50 bucks per dermatologist appointment by paying them directly.

Not sure what point you are making here. Most of these seem to be segregated unions for AA people that existed in the same places as the corresponding non-AA union run by the same overarching organization (e.g. AFL-CIO, etc).
Seeing the mention of the 3C501 made me dig up old Linux source to find the amusing comments in "drivers/net/3c501.c":

Do not purchase this card, even as a joke. It's performance is horrible, and it breaks in many ways.

...

The driver is less efficient than it could be. It switches through receive mode even if more transmits are queued. If this worries you buy a real ethernet card.

...

The driver still allows only the default address for cards when loaded as a module, but that's really less braindead than anyone using a 3c501 board. :)

This should just be the default when you remove your SIM from the iOS device.
I'm looking forward to the answer(s) to this. We've all had colds that barely came with symptoms.

I was thinking of it as a treatment. If someone tests positive, Achoo!. Don't mean sneeze on them, of course. Immediately use an inhaler with a "minor cold" and let nature battle it out as described in the paper.

I'm really surprised this paper was posted 2 weeks ago, yet is getting no media. It will take an expert or two to get to the details, but this is too interesting to pass by. It wouldn't be the first virus known to inhibit the actions of another.
